Study Guide
1. Facing the Objections – Christians Are Intolerant or Arrogant
Christians are often accused of being arrogant for claiming Jesus is the only way. But truth itself is exclusive—just like a doctor giving the only cure.
Something to think about: How can you share the truth of Jesus lovingly even when people see it as narrow or offensive?
2. Understanding Relativism – “That’s Just Your Truth”
Today’s culture says truth is subjective, but Jesus taught that truth is objective and unchanging. His identity defines reality.
Something to think about: How can you help others see that truth isn’t a matter of opinion but of reality rooted in Christ?
3. Religious Pluralism – All Religions Can’t Be True
Not all paths lead to God because they contradict each other. Jesus’ claims and resurrection uniquely validate Him as the one true way.
Something to think about: Why do you think it’s difficult for people to accept that not all religions can be true?
4. The Identity of Jesus – The Central Issue
Christianity rises and falls on who Jesus is, not just what He taught. Without Christ, there is no Christianity.
Something to think about: How does understanding who Jesus is (not just what He did) strengthen your faith?
5. The Liar, Lunatic, or Lord Trilemma
C.S. Lewis said Jesus can’t simply be a “good teacher.” He’s either who He claimed to be—the Son of God—or He isn’t.
Something to think about: How would you explain to someone why Jesus’ claims force us to make a personal decision about Him?
6. The Only Way – God’s Loving Plan of Salvation
God provided one way—not out of exclusion, but love. He made salvation simple: through faith in His Son.
Something to think about: How does knowing Jesus is the only way give you confidence in sharing your faith?
