There are many verses in John that also prove that Jesus >is the only way to God. What about the other verses revealed in John and elsewhere, as excerpted below? As you are reading these, try to reevaluate Jesus' station for yourself. John 16:7-8: "Nevertheless I tell you the truth. It is to your advantage that I go away; for if I do not go away, the Helper will not come to you; but if I depart, I will send Him to you. And when He has come, He will convict the world of sin, and of righteousness, and of judgment;" John 16:13-14: "However, when He, the Spirit of truth, has come, He will guide you into all truth; for He will not speak on His own authority, but whatever He hears He will speak...He will glorify Me, for He will take what is Mine and declare it to you." John 14:10: "The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works." John 12:44: "He who believes in Me, believes not in Me but in Him who sent Me." John 14:24: "He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word which you hear is not Mine but the Father's who sent Me." Mark 10:18: "Why do you call Me good? There is none good but One, that is, God."
