Jesus told [Thomas], "I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father except through Me. If you had known who I am, then you would have known who My Father is. From now on you have known Him and have seen Him." (John 14:6 The Message)
The great need today among the young is the strengthening of belief in things spiritual, for in spite of the superhuman advances in science, invention, and culture, none of this is attributed to God's gift to mankind; in fact, the increase of knowledge… has but given to youth a self-reliant independence where religion has no place, and beyond admitting that Christ was “the best man that ever lived,” there are few who concede any other tribute to the Creator. And yet the saving principles of the world are rooted in Christ, implanted in Him; the Truth by which we live is the Truth as taught and lived by Jesus.
