Christmas contains a controversial claim. Luke 2:11 states, “For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.” Jesus claimed to be more than a good teacher and healer. He claimed to King and the only way to heaven (John 14:6).

Does Jesus’ claim that He is the only way to Heaven lead to pride and even oppression, as some claim? Is following your own truth a better way to live your life and order society? Here are our thoughts on why Jesus’ claim is exactly the exclusive claim needed by our diverse society.

Key points:

  • Everyone makes exclusive claims.
  • All exclusive claims can’t be true.
  • Exactly this exclusive claim is needed these days.
