JESUS WAS NOT A GOOD MAN
That’s right, Jesus was not a good Man; though He did many, many things that were extremely good.
Many people today want to view Jesus as a devout man who taught love, righteousness and good morals.
History sees Jesus as a sage and philosopher, a charismatic healer or the leader of a reform movement.
In fact, Jesus claimed to be sent from heaven, the divine Son of the everlasting God of the entire universe.
He repeatedly said that He was One with the Father, that He could forgive sin and that He was more that human.
So Christ was either Who He claimed to be, or He was a delusional liar – certainly not a “good man!”
His teachings are faultless, His motives always helped others and His actions empowered the disadvantaged.
It is impossible to find a better Person than Jesus – except for those peculiar claims to divinity.
Even his enemies admitted He did miraculous things – they just said it was by the power of the devil.
But His wonderful teachings don’t line up with a Person who is possessed, His teachings sound more like the divine.
His followers, who knew Him best, were certainly convinced He was holy, and they willingly died for those convictions.
History is full of accounts of the hopeless being transformed by a supposed encounter with the Carpenter from Nazareth.
Maybe Jesus was not merely a good man, but was ALL that He claimed to be, the divine Son of the Living God!
A world-wide movement based on choice rather than force, that shows no sign of faltering, tends to strongly support that belief.
Jesus Christ was not only a good Man, He was God in the flesh...Emmanuel the prophesied One.
