Christian exclusivism is the teaching that it is only through [[Jesus]] that a person can be [[saved]]. Jesus himself stated in the [[New Testament]], "I am the truth, the way and the life. No one comes to Father but by me."

[[R.C. Sproul]]: ''If a person in a remote area has never heard of [[Christ]], he will not be punished for that. What he will be punished for is the rejection of [[the Father]] of whom he has heard and for the disobedience to the law that is written in his heart.''

[[Jesus]] - [[John 14:6]]: ''I am the truth, the way and the life. No one comes to Father but by me.'' ==Links==* [http://danielrandle.blogspot.com/2005/05/holy-spirit-and-exclusivity-of-gospel.html The Holy Spirit and the Exclusivity of the Gospel], by Daniel Randle* [http://www.leaderu.com/focus/oneway.html One Way?: Are the Exclusivist Claims of Christianity Valid in an Age of Inclusivism?] (Leadership U)* [http://www.beliefnet.com/story/173/story_17379.html Jesus Alone], by Michael Youssef - "Salvation cannot be bought except through the blood of Jesus.
