There is no doubt about the existence of a supreme being. While some people believe that the only pathway to God is through Jesus, others disagree and argue that there are various paths to seeing God. In my essay, I will discuss both sides of the argument and explain my support for the latter view. On the one hand, some people think that Jesus Christ is the only route to meet with Jehovah.

This

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,

hence

there must be other paths to see Jehovah.

On the other hand

, I would argue that there are other ways to see God.

This

is because several events in the Old Testament show clearly encounters between various men and Yahweh. To illustrate, Daniel, while in the lions' den prayed to God Almighty and he was delivered from the den.

Also

, 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. In conclusion, despite some people thinking that the only way to meet with Jehovah is through Jesus Christ as revealed in the New Testament, I believe that there are different ways in which God can be seen as manifested in the Old 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

Schools should use films, computers and games instead of books. To what extent do you agree or disagree?
In recent years, there has been a debate about whether schools should replace books and notebooks with films, computers, games, and other technological devices. In my opinion, I partly agree with this statement because collaborating high-tech with books can create a remarkable school.

Society speculates that people may be accepting such uncomfortable jobs and less funds as their destiny. Conversely, the others ensure it can be an improvement through the situation. I agree that employees nowadays must struggle with several situations to get to a higher place.

The question about right age to get married still remain unanswered and controversial to answer, after several decades of research and scientific advancement.

In today's world, people spend a lot of money on appearance because they want to look younger. Why does this happen? Do you think this is a positive or negative development?
In the modern day, there is an increase in people who expend their income aiming to own a younger appearance. The primary reason for these appearance expenditures is the concern of ugly appearance and societal perspective on beauty criteria. In light of this, I contend that this trend has an adverse influence on public health.

Some people feel that manufacturers and supermarkets should have the responsibility to reduce the amount of packaging of goods, while others argue that customers should avoid buying goods with a lot of packaging. Discuss both these views and give your own opinion
There are controversial perspectives heating up a debate over the phenomenon that packaging of commodities should be cut down on. While some claim that producers have a high liability so as to alleviate only-used packages, the opposite makes a statement that consumers are also highly accountable to avoid purchasing packaged items. While they have their own perks, I would contend that it is optimal to combine both mentioned factors.

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.
