I agree with rossonero, either Jesus is wrong or you are.

In addition to the verse where Jesus said "I am the way... no one comes to the Father except by me", please note what he said in the following verse:

"...if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins." (John 8:24)

______
EDIT

OK, I've been thinking about this. Jesus did say there are two ways. One is the way to eternal life, and the other way is to destruction. (Matthew 7:13-14)

So, if the destination is not specified, there is more than one way, a way to life and a way to death. If you ask the way to eternal life, to the Father, or to salvation; then Jesus is the only way.

Choose your direction to travel.

Do you believe that Christ was a good man or maybe a prophet? If so, then you have three options about who Jesus Christ was:
1) Liar - He wasn't who he said He was.
2) Lunatic - He was crazy.
3) Lord - He is who He said He is...the Lord & Messiah.

Jn. 14:6 - Jesus said to him, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through Me."
Lk. 22:7 - And they all said, "Are You the Son of God, then?" And He said to them, "Yes, I am."

Who is the only way? Is there just death and it ends with that? Than why live. What good is it. No purpose in life. Why does one go to work and worry about being rich and successful it it all ends someday. And we know, that one can die any time. Accidents happen, diseases devour our bodies, whatever it is. Jesus died for my sins and He promises me everlasting life. I have the hope that whatever I do here on earth will be seen by Him and He will say to me: Well done, good and faithful servant. I am looking forward to that day. I am glad when I can help someone in need and know I served God through it. Jesus said He is the only way, the truth and the life and that no one will come to the FAther but through HIm. Prove for that? You have to humble yourself and have faith. If you just give God a chance He will make Himself known to you. Cast your fears and doubts aside and find out.

She's got a point everyone, you can say you're christian, but if you read the bible you'll get what she's saying. If you truly have read the bible, you'll understand, but you can't just blindly quote stuff out of context, it makes it seem whatever you want it to be. I am NOT christian, and i do not think that christ is the only way, sorry everyone. :P

Christ is the only way.
The SON
A wealthy man and his son loved to collect rare works of art. They had everything in their collection, from Picasso to Raphael. They would often sit together and admire the great works of art.

When the Vietnam conflict broke out, the son went to war. He was very courageous and died in battle while rescuing another soldier. The father was notified and grieved deeply for his only son.

About a month later, just before Christmas, there was a knock at the door. A young man stood at the door with a large package in his hands.He said, "Sir, you don't know me, but I am the soldier for whom your son gave his life. He saved many lives that day, and he was carrying me to safety when a bullet struck him in the heart and he died instantly. He often
talked about you, and your love for art." The young man held out this package. "I know this isn't much. I'm not really a great artist, but I think your son would have wanted you to have this."

The father opened the package. It was a portrait of his son, painted by the young man. He stared in awe at the way the soldier had captured the personality of his son in the painting. The father was so drawn to the eyes that his own eyes welled up with tears. He thanked the young man and offered to
pay him for the picture. "Oh, no sir, I could never repay what your son did for me. It's a gift."

The father hung the portrait over his mantle. Every time visitors came to his home he took them to see the portrait of his son before he showed them any of the other great works he had collected. The man died a few months later. There was to be a great auction of his paintings Many influential people gathered, excited over seeing the great paintings and having an opportunity to purchase one for their collection.

On the platform sat the painting of the son. The auctioneer pounded his gavel. "We will start the bidding with this picture of the son. Who will bid for this picture?" There was silence.
Then a voice in the back of the room shouted, "We want to see the famous paintings. Skip this one." But the auctioneer persisted. "Will somebody bid for this painting Who will start the bidding? $100, $200?"

Another voice angrily. "We didn't come to see this painting. We came to see the Van Gogh's, the Rembrandt's. Get on with the real bids!" But still the auctioneer continued. "The son! The son! Who'll take the son?"

Finally, a voice came from the very back of the room. It was the longtime gardener of the man and his son. "I'll give $10 for the painting." Being a poor man, it was all he could afford.

"We have $10, who will bid $20?"

"Give it to him for $10 Let's see the masters."

The crowd was becoming angry. They didn't want the picture of the son. They wanted the more worthy investments for their collections. The auctioneer pounded the gavel. "Going once, twice, SOLD for $10!"

A man sitting on the second row shouted, "Now let's get on with the collection!" The auctioneer laid down his gavel. "I'm sorry, the auction is over."

"What about the paintings?"

"I am sorry. When I was called to conduct this auction, I was told of a secret stipulation in the will. I was not allowed to reveal that stipulation until this time. Only the painting of the son would be auctioned. Whoeverbought that painting would inherit the entire estate, including the paintings.

The man who took the son gets everything!"

God gave His son 2,000 years ago to die on the cross. Much like the auctioneer, His message today is: "The son, the son, who'll take the son?" Because, you see, whoever takes the Son gets everything.

FOR GOD SO LOVED THE WORLD HE GAVE HIS ONLY BEGOTTEN SON, WHO SO EVER BELIEVETH, SHALL HAVE ETERNAL LIFE...THAT'S LOVE

God Bless.

If you want to make it into heaven to live with God, then you must go through Christ and the way to do this is to receive salvation and build a lasting relationship with Christ. He is the way, the truth, and the life. No man comes to his father except they come through him.

What way do you recommend?
Because all this says to me is na na na na boo boo....you are wrong....but I refuse to tell you how to get there.

Here is what I choose to believe (because we all have the free will to choose God or not)....Christ IS the only way to Heaven. My proof is the Bible. See..you can actually prove all other religions false by the Bible....and the Bible is proven right over and over again.
Choose to believe it or don't.....But it appears that God has hardened your heart already....so....
when this world is over then we can discuss our positions and see who is right. Oh...never mind...no we won't...because the Bible says there is a "great gulf fixed" between heaven, earth, and hell....so we won't be talking at this rate.
Question for you.....If I am wrong where does that put me?
If you are wrong, where does it put you?

Christ said we will be judged by the light we are given.
If some people, by their beliefs do not see by His light, then they will be judged by what they have believed and what they have done with their life.

God loves all His creations!
That is the good news.

Either Jesus is wrong or you are. No offense, but I'm going to have to go with Jesus on this one.

John 14:6 Jesus answered, "I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me
