1 Peter 1:17-21
Jesus was Raised from the Dead by God
17 Since you call on a Father who judges each person’s work impartially, live out your time as foreigners here in reverent fear. 18 For you know that it was not with perishable things such as silver or gold that you were redeemed from the empty way of life handed down to you from your ancestors, 19 but with the precious blood of Christ, a lamb without blemish or defect. 20 He was chosen before the creation of the world, but was revealed in these last times for your sake. 21 Through him you believe in God, who raised him from the dead and glorified him, and so your faith and hope are in God.
John 14:6-7
No One Comes to God, Except Through Jesus
6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me. 7 If you really know me, you will know my Father as well. From now on, you do know him and have seen him.”
Acts 4:12
Jesus is the Only Way to Gain Salvation
12 Salvation is found in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given to mankind by which we must be saved.
St. Peter says that Jesus was without defect or sin...God had chosen Jesus before the creation of the world, but He was revealed in these last times for your sake...Through Jesus you believe in God, who raised Him from the dead and glorified Him with His resurrection, and so your faith and hope are in God...Jesus' death and His resurrection and our belief and love for Him and that these things happened is our salvation...
So with Jesus' death on the cross and then His resurrection, we are given salvation and the Way to heaven and to God...
The resurrection of Jesus by God is the most important historical fact we have if we want to meet our Father and His Son...Jesus died on the cross and by dying on the cross paid for our sins that we do...Jesus dying on the cross pays our sin debt and for the sins that we do...Jesus' death on the cross is the only payment we have and the only payment we need to get to be with God and His Son and into heaven...And it is our only Way into heaven and to meet God...
