There is only one door, one bridge, one ladder, between earth and heaven - the crucified Son of God.

If Christ had not gone to the cross and suffered in our stead, the just for the unjust, there would not have been a spark of hope for us. There would have been a mighty gulf between ourselves and God, which no man ever could have passed.
