\u201cI believe Jesus was a great moral teacher, but I can\u2019t accept His claim to be God.\u201d Have you ever heard a statement like that\u2026or perhaps said something similar yourself?
\nC.S. Lewis probes the greatest decision of life:<\/p>\n
A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic – on the level of a man who says he is a poached egg – or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God: Or else He is a madman\u2026or something worse. You can shut Him up for a fool; you can spit at Him and kill Him as a demon; or you can fall at His feet and call Him Lord and God. But let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about His being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n
