It’s that there are hundreds of doors out there. There are thousands of doors out there, but there’s only one door that gets you abundant life, and Jesus is saying I’m that door!
That is what the contrast is about. That’s what Jesus is saying to us. If we are going to have abundant life, he’s the only door. And he says come on. He tells us to walk through his door.

Yahweh

Whenever I call God Yahweh, I think of many different attributes. But most of all, I think, this is a name that is only for his people. It’s a special name that I get to address him as that represents his faithfulness to me. When Jesus says he is Yahweh, he is everything we have seen in the Old Testament.
The True Vine
July 16, 2017 • Jonathan Parnell
Jesus is the true vine. Which means, he is the truer and better Israel — so in all the places where Israel wavered, Jesus will hold fast; in all the places where Israel sinned, Jesus will overcome; in all the places where Israel forsook God over and over again, Jesus will trust God all the way to the very end.
The Way
July 9, 2017 • David Mathis
Jesus is not one lamp among many. He is the singular source of the light of the glory that illumines the world to come. He is the way, the truth, and the life. To believe in the true God is to believe also in Jesus (verse 1). He is in the Father and the Father is in him (verse 11). Jesus is the only way because he and God the Father are one.
