"...They did not receive the love of the truth, that they might be saved." (2 Thess. 2:10)

Tony Campolo told of taking an airplane from Califonnia to Philadelphia one stormy night. It was late, but when the man in the next seat learned that Campolo was a Christian, he wanted to talk. The man said, "I believe that going to heaven is like going to Philadelphia. You can get there by airplane, by train, by bus, by automobile. There are many ways to get to Philadelphia."

Campolo mentioned that when they started descending into Philadelphia, the place was fogged in. The wind was blowing, the rain was beating on the plane, and everyone looked nervous and tight. As we were circling in the fog, I turned to the theological expert on my right and said, "I'm certainly glad the pilot doesn't agree with your theology." He asked, "What do you mean?" I replied, "The people in the control tower are giving instructions to the pilot. 'Come in north by northwest, three degrees, you're on beam; don't deviate from the beam.' I'm glad the pilot's not saying, 'There are many ways into this airport. There are many approaches we can take.' I'm glad he's saying, 'There's only one way we can land this plane, and I'm saying on course.'" (From Contemporary Illustrations, p. 79)

Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." (John 14:6)
