Who was Jesus?
He was a remarkable man. But his true identity has occupied thinkers for centuries.
This question can actually be answered by reflecting on some of the astonishing claims Jesus made about himself. In fact Jesus once made the audacious claim to be able to forgive sins - something God alone can do.
"But that you may know that the Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins...” - Matthew 9:6 (NIV)
So at this point Jesus was effectively claiming to be God. So who did Jesus really think he was?
Well, there are three ways of assessing Jesus’ astonishing claim.
- First - Jesus was wrong about being God and he knew it. So he was a liar.
- Second - Jesus was wrong and he didn’t know it. So he was crazy.
- Or third - he wasn’t wrong at all. He was speaking the truth. And if so - then he would truly be the Lord.
Liar, lunatic, or the Lord- the only three options - so who do you think Jesus was?
