What does the Bible say about approaching God?

The Scriptures indicate that God is both Creator and sustainer of all creation, as seen in Psalm 19:1 where it states, 'The heavens declare his glory.' However, nature alone does not reveal how sin is reconciled with God's justice. Jesus made it clear in John 14:6 that He is the exclusive way to the Father, and that no one can approach God through their own works or rituals. Good works are insufficient, since 'there is none righteous, no, not one' (Romans 3:10). This exclusivity is essential for understanding God's nature as both loving and just.
