the tough thing about those passages is that they are usually understood as meaning that jesus the man, the little i am, was the only way. if jesus really was intermittently channeling the creator itself, we can't consistently interpret his words as being those spoken by a sub-sub-sub-logos, as ra would possibly put it.

the tough thing about all religious records, the bible included, is that they are invariably a mixture of positive messages and negative infiltration. thus a great deal of free will is preserved by allowing the reader chances to reconcile the inevitable contradictions in his or her own chosen way.
