What We’re About
The most meaningful and life-changing things we can know about God and what it means to follow Him, come down to us through His Word in the passages of Scripture.
The way we respond to those passages will define our very lives.
If you have not yet come to Jesus as God, requesting His permanent forgiveness, we would love to talk with you about that.
Until then, here is a simple explanation from the Bible of what that looks like…
We are inviting people to genuinely experience Jesus by presenting who He is, what He’s done, and how you can come to know Him with confidence
(John 1:12).
We believe that Jesus as God died to pay the sin-debt of all mankind, and rose from the dead conquering death, and now offers eternal life freely to anyone who asks it of Him.
We do not believe that Jesus is a ‘self-help program’ to make your life easier, or that Jesus came to make ‘bad people’ good, or ‘good people’ better, but instead to transform all humanity from being spiritually dead to being spiritually alive!
We believe that salvation & life-transformation take place as we receive by faith what God has said to mankind through His Scripture.
If you have not yet come to Jesus as God, requesting His permanent forgiveness, here is a simple explanation from the Bible on how to do so:
“...if you confess with your mouth that Jesus is LORD and believe in your heart that God the Father raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes and is declared permanently forgiven by God and with the mouth one confesses and is saved. For the Scripture says, ‘Everyone who believes in Jesus will not be put to shame.’”
- ROMANS 10:9-11
Early on in the Bible, we are told that the most important thing we are to do is…
“…love the LORD your God, to walk in his ways,”
-DEUTERONOMY 30:16
In Isaiah 55:9 we are told, “For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts.” So from the beginning, the Bible makes it clear that we are to love God by walking in His ways, but that those ways are far beyond us.
So how do we walk in His ways, if they are beyond us? That is where Jesus comes in. Jesus taught us in John 14:6 that He is The Way, and promised that anyone who believes He is the only way to the Father will have eternal life (cf. John 3:16) because He died and rose again to bring us God’s forgiveness simply through faith in Him and His payment for our sin.
When Jesus called His first disciples, He said, “Follow me,” (Matt. 9:9) and invited them into a new way of life; a way that was far above and beyond what they had ever known. Daily, they followed Jesus “on the way” (Mark 9:33) and learned to live a life of faith.
When Christianity was brand new, not knowing what to call it, many simply referred to it is as, “The Way”, (Acts 24:14, 22) because Jesus called Himself this, & those who believed in Jesus lived in such a way that it impacted everyone they came into contact with. In Mark 10:32 we read, “They were on their way up to Jerusalem, with Jesus leading the way, and they were amazed,…” Why amazed? Because His ways are higher than our ways, and He leads us in that way to do His will.
At PassageWay, we take time each week to discover what God has chosen to say to us through a passage of the Bible, and invite you to respond in faith, as we follow Him together by faith. We’re inviting you to encounter the power of the Holy Spirit through the very passages He inspired, responding to God by faith. To live life the passage way; above & beyond the mere human way.
