42 Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on my own; God sent me. 43 Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say.
John 8:42-43
Why is what the Word of God says not clear enough? Simple and powerful!
This is a quote my wife came accross in her colloge class. She is doing a study of the NT.
“I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing
that people often say about Him: "I'm ready to accept Jesus as a
great moral teacher, but I don't accept His claim to be God." That
is the one thing we must not say. 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 a level with the 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 a madman or 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 moral
teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.”
C.S. Lewis.
