Crazy Lies or Truth?

Published on April 6, 2004 By Shulamite In Personal Relationships

Was Jesus crazy, a liar, or telling the truth? It seems to me these are the only options we have, as presented to us by C.S. Lewis.

I don't believe he was crazy. Christianity is not the only religion that recognizes and embraces him as a wise and worthy teacher. The Jews and Muslims also recognize his actual ministry on earth, the occurances of his life, and his teachings. He was also rather logical.

I don't believe he was a liar. Again, he's recognized by more than just Christianity as a Prophet who told the truth. What he said came true.

So he must have been telling the truth.

"Am the Way, the Truth, and the Life. No man comes to the Father except through me," He says. Now the only question we've left is Pontius Pilate's question: "What shall I do with this Jesus who is called Messiah?"

that's interesting when you put it that way. I think he was telling the truth. But that's just me.
