The-Way life
through his Word of truth.
Holding fast the Word of life, so that in the day of Christ I will have reason to glory because I did not run in vain nor toil in vain. Php 2:16
The Way of Life. –(GOD JorY) the Fountain of life, has revealed the way of life
through his Word of
truth. The Lord Jesus Christ “shed light upon life and incorruption through the
good news.” (2 Ti 1:10) He told his disciples: “It is the spirit that is
life-giving; the flesh is of no use at all. The sayings that I have spoken to
you are spirit and are life.” A little later Jesus asked his apostles whether
they were going to leave him, as others had. Peter replied: “Lord, whom shall
we go away to? You have sayings of everlasting life.” (Joh+
6:63+66-68)
The apostle John called
Jesus “the Word of
life,” and said: “By means of him was life.”—1Jo 1:1, 2; Joh 1:4.-1Jo+1-1-2+Joh+1-
4
From Jesus’ words it is
evident that human efforts to prolong life indefinitely or theories that
certain diets or regimens will bring life to mankind are futile

At best, they can bring improved health only
temporarily. The only Way of life is obedience to the good news, “the Word of life.” (Php 2:16) To get life, the individual must keep his mind
fixed “on the things above, not on the things upon the earth.” (
To his hearers Jesus
said: “He that hears my word and believes him that sent me has everlasting
life, and he does not come into judgment but has passed over from death to
life.” (Joh5:24 ; 6:40 )
They are no longer condemned sinners, in the way of death. The apostle Paul
wrote: “Therefore those in union with Christ Jesus have no condemnation. For
the law of that spirit which gives life in union with Christ Jesus has set you
free from the law of sin and of death.” (Ro 8:1, 2) John says that a
Christian knows he has ‘passed from death to life’ if he loves his
brothers.—1Jo.3:14
Since “there is not
another name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must get
saved,” the seeker for life must follow Christ. (Ac 4:12) Jesus showed that a
person must be conscious of his spiritual need; he must hunger and thirst for
righteousness. (Mt 5:3, 6) Not only must he hear the good news but he must
exercise faith in Jesus Christ and through him call on the name of Jehovah. (Ro
10:13-15) Following Jesus’ example, he will be baptized in water. (Mt 3:13-15;
Eph 4:5) He must then keep on seeking the Kingdom and Jehovah’s
righteousness.—Mt
