What does the Bible say about Christ as our ladder?

Answered in 1 source

Christ is depicted as the ladder connecting earth and heaven, enabling our access to God.

In Genesis 28, Jacob dreams of a ladder reaching from the earth to heaven, symbolizing the connection between God and man. This ladder is identified as Jesus Christ, who serves as the only mediator through whom we can approach God. The narrative illustrates how, by God's grace, Christ bridges the vast separation caused by sin, providing a way for sinners to be reconciled to God. Without Christ, no one can ascend to God, as our own efforts and righteousness fall short. Therefore, understanding this connection is vital for recognizing our need for salvation and the grace extended through Jesus Christ.
Scripture References: Genesis 28:12-15, John 14:6
