The idea that there is only one way to be reconciled with God has its origins in the Old Testament.

Every parent has the responsibility to cultivate his child's heart. If we leave our children's heart alone, they tend to become like a garden, overgrown with evil and with sin.

"The way of Cain" says there are many paths that lead to God rather than one path.

The cross of Jesus Christ represents the intersection of God's love and God's holiness.

The willingness of God to sacrifice his Son to reconcile us to himself is a demonstration of his love for us.

God's love means that our Creator desires to have a relationship with us. God's holiness prevents him from having fellowship with us and, instead, demands the outpouring of his anger against us.

One of the consistent themes you'll find throughout the Bible is that God will always provide the necessary information about Jesus Christ to someone who sincerely desires to receive that revelation.
