Is He a liar, lunatic or your Lord?

C.S. Lewis (1898 - 1963)

"A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a geat 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."

John 8:58-59 "I tell you the truth," Jesus answered "before Abraham was born, I am."
