Some people believe that the only way to see God is through Jesus, others think that there are other ways regardless. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion.

#people #god #jesus
There is no doubt about the existence of a supreme being.
Although
 some people believe that there are various paths to seeing God, others disagree and argue that Jesus alone is the pathway to God. In my easy, I will discuss both sides of the argument and explain my support for the former view. On the one hand, some people think that they are different routes to meet with Jehovah.
This
 is because several events in the Old Testament show clearly encounters between various prophets and Yahweh. To illustrate, Daniel, while in the lions' den prayed to God Almighty and he was delivered.
Furthermore
, Mosses, while leading the children of the Israelites out of Egypt, God instructed him to strike the rod on the Red Sea and the sea divided so they can pass through.
In contrast
, since they have seen God,
then
 Jesus Christ is not the only passage to God.
On the other hand
, I would argue that Christ is the only way to see God.
This
 is
as a result
 of landmark happenings in the New Testament.
For instance
, John prophesied that God is sending a messiah whose shoes he is unfit to lose. That the messiah will wash away our sins, raise the dead, enable us to see Jehovah through him. All these came to pass.
However
, if the prophecy did not materialize,
then
 there must be other paths to see Jehovah. In conclusion, despite some people think that there are different ways in which Yahweh can be seen as manifested in the Old Testament; I believe that the only way to meet with Jehovah is through Jesus Christ as revealed in the New Testament.

Include an introduction and conclusion

A conclusion is essential for IELTS writing task 2. It is more important than most people realise. You will be penalised for missing a conclusion in your IELTS essay.

The easiest paragraph to write in an essay is the conclusion paragraph. This is because the paragraph mostly contains information that has already been presented in the essay – it is just the repetition of some information written in the introduction paragraph and supporting paragraphs.

The conclusion paragraph only has 3 sentences:

  • Summary
  • Restatement of thesis
  • Prediction or recommendation

Example:

To summarize, a robotic teacher does not have the necessary disciple to properly give instructions to students and actually works to retard the ability of a student to comprehend new lessons. Therefore, it is clear that the idea of running a classroom completely by a machine cannot be supported. After thorough analysis on this subject, it is predicted that the adverse effects of the debate over technology-driven teaching will always be greater than the positive effects, and because of this, classroom teachers will never be substituted for technology.

Start your conclusion with a linking phrase. Here are some examples:

  • In conclusion
  • To conclude
  • To summarize
  • Finally
  • In a nutshell
  • In general
