The questions we have about God are endless: “Is God real? Does he care about me? Can I have a relationship with Him?"

The Bible may not answer every question about God – and sometimes even leads us to ask more questions – but one of the areas where the Bible is absolutely clear is the answer to the question: Who is Jesus?

The Scriptures call Jesus “the Messiah, the Son of the Living God.” (Matthew 16:16). Jesus was not merely a great moral teacher, on par with Socrates or The Buddha. Jesus is the very son of God. He was God in the flesh. He was killed on a Roman cross, was buried in a borrowed grave, and was raised to life three days later.  He was not merely a man. He was God with us. And he wants a relationship with you. 

C.S. Lewis, a well-known Christian author, wrote of Jesus, “I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say about Him: I’m ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don’t accept his claim to be God. That is the one thing we must not say. 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."
