II. Is Jesus who He said He is? No Middle Ground!

A Quote From C.S. Lewis "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 with a man who says he is a poached egg--or he would be the devil of hell. You must take your choice. Either this was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut him up for a fool 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 just a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us.

What Did He Say About Himself? I came from Heaven! I am the Messiah I am God –Same work –Same ability to give life –Same authority –Same honor –Same will

What Did He Say About Himself? I am the bread of life I existed before Abraham I am the eternal God, Creator of the Universe I am the door to salvation I am equal to God I am the resurrection and life itself I am the way, the truth, and the life I am the only way to God

Josh McDowell puts it this way; His claims are either True or they are False Evidence That Demands A Verdict

Jesus: His Claims Were Either False True

Assume they are False Then He either Knew they were False Or He believed they were True

Jesus: His Claims Were Either False True He didn’t knowHe Knew Or

Assume He Knew they were False Then He is not a great moral teacher He is a liar Hypocrite Demon Fool

Jesus: His Claims Were Either False True He didn’t knowHe Knew Deliberate Misrepresentation Liar Hypocrite Demon Fool Or

Assume He believed they were true He was sincerely deluded He was a lunatic

Jesus: His Claims Were Either False True He didn’t knowHe Knew He was deludedHe was a Lunatic Deliberate Misrepresentation Fool Demon Hypocrite Liar Or

But what if He is God? He Is LORD You have only two choices Accept Him and His Lordship Reject Him

If You Accept Him He offers you Eternal Life If You Reject Him You must expect Eternal Punishment

Jesus: His Claims Were Either False True Reject He is LORD He didn’t knowHe Knew Accept He was deluded He was a Lunatic Deliberate Misrepresentation Fool Demon Hypocrite Liar Or Eternal Life Eternal Punishment John 3:18 (*)

But what if He is God? He Is LORD You have only two choices Accept Him and His Lordship (*) His Lordship demands obedience!

But what if He is God? Reject Him and be forever lost!

What About A Believer? Can we claim He is our Savior and reject Him as our LORD? (*) His Lordship demands obedience!

III. How is Jesus' identity “proven” today? A. You are His Witnesses – Luke 24:48 B. John 17:20 C.Walk Worthy of His Calling (Eph 4:1, I Thes 2:9-12, Col 1:10-12)
