What Do Christians Believe About Jesus?

April 25, 2021

In 1952, C.S. Lewis published his classic work, Mere Christianity. It was an adaptation of a series of talks that Lewis had given on BBC radio between 1941 and 1944. England was deeply embroiled in the Second World War. It was a dark time in history. Lewis, a member of the English faculty at Oxford was invited to present a series of talks on BBC radio on the topic of Christianity. In the midst of dark and desperate days, Lewis’ words challenged listeners to evaluate what they believed, and offered truth and hope.

Speaking of Jesus, he said, “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 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 human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.”

What do you believe about Jesus? Have you examined His claims for yourself? Do you know why you believe the way you do?

This is message three in our series What Do Christians Believe? We are taking an 8-week look at the foundational beliefs of our faith, learning how to put into words what we know, and gaining a deeper understanding of how our lives should reflect the truths that we stand on. Whether you are just exploring faith, or have walked with Jesus most of your life, there is fresh truth for you as we study the Word of God together.
