The men and women with whom Jesus came into contact fall into three classes: - Those who say, “He is demon-possessed and raving mad.”
- Only bitter hatred could have brought them to that.
- Who was it that first claimed that Jesus was sinless and called Him the Son of God?
- The disciples! These were the men who, with amazing agreement, declared Jesus to be the sinless One.
- To any reasonable mind this makes the charge of His enemies totally false!
- Those who say, “He is a good man.”
- If we agree that Jesus was good, and if we also agree that a good person always has a keen sense of guilt because of their sin, aren’t we forced to believe He was something more than a good man?
- Those who say, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
- How can we be sure that He was all that the disciples claimed He was?
- He accepted worship.
- He forgave sins.
- His personal claims.
- He has won devoted followers.
- He has won devoted followers from all the races of humankind.
- Every man or woman who really meets Jesus feels the affect and challenge of His life.
