The Way of the Lord

By John Norton Loughborough

OUR Saviour said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.” John 14:6. This way is designated by various terms in the Scriptures. Among these we note the following:

“The way of God in truth.” Matt. 22:16. “The way of holiness.” Isa. 35:8. “The way of His steps.” Ps. 85:13. “The way of salvation.” Acts 16:17. “A perfect way.” Ps. 101:2. “The way of life.” Prov. 6:23. “The way of Thy precepts.” Ps. 119:27. “The way of the righteous.” Ps. 1:6. “The way of understanding.” Prov. 9:6. “The good and the right way.” 1 Sam. 12:23. “The way everlasting.” Ps. 139:24. “The way of His saints.” Prov. 2:8. The “narrow” way “to life.” Matt. 7:14. “The way into the holiest.” Heb. 9:8. “A new and living way.” Heb. 10:20.

Of another way it is said, “There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.” Prov. 14:12. But “blessed is the man” that standeth not “in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. But his delight is in the law of the Lord; and in His law doth he meditate day and night. And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper.” Ps. 1:1-3.
