Jesus is NOT a GOOD MAN John 7:12 (Episode #196)

With hats off today to C.S. Lewis, we conclude that Jesus is NOT a GOOD MAN.  Even some of the participants in today's account get that message.  A good man does not say He is LORD.

If you say you are Lord, there are three logical conclusions.  One of them is NOT "Jesus is a Good Man".  We are past that already.
You are a LUNATIC  (you are NOT the Lord, and you THINK you are).  

• this person deserves our pity

You are a LIAR (you are NOT the Lord and you KNOW you are NOT)

• this person deserves our scorn

You are the Lord (You ARE the Lord and You Know you are)

• this Person deserves our allegiance, our belief, and our worship

I welcome you who are disturbed by Jesus' message.  If you feel challenged, unseated, undone, crushed, elbowed in then you are a friend of mine.  If you want to scream, "I don't LIKE the Bible!", then perhaps that is the drawing of God.  I have prayed for you this morning.  If you want to read more, pick up MERE CHRISTIANITY by C.S. Lewis, as I stole all of this from him.  Listen to the One who CANNOT be (just) a Good Man.
