Presentation transcript:

Who do you say I am?

Direct Claims of Jesus I am the Light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes on Me shall never thirst. I am the Resurrection and the Life! He who believes in Me, though he die, yet he shall live. I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep.

Direct Claims of Jesus I am the way, the truth and the life, no one comes to the Father but by me I am the Vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, the same brings forth much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. You are from beneath; I am from above. You are of this world; I am not of this world. He that believes on me, as the scripture has said, from within him shall flow rivers of living water

Indirect Claims He forgave sins He accepted worship

The moral authority of His teachings “ This man does not teach as one of the scribes..”

His miracles Authority over Nature Authority over life and death

His Character

“The discrepancy between to the depth, sincerity and may I say the shrewdness of his moral teaching, and the rampant megalomania which must lie behind his theological teaching unless He is God, has never been got over” C.S. Lewis

Who do YOU say I am?

Who then is Jesus Christ? We have to be careful how we answer this because it is a boomerang question; it is not primarily an academic matter. Some people think they can sit and discuss the Christian faith as they might discuss a scientific hypotheses. This is not so. God does not prove himself by a series of propositions, he reveals himself in a person, and the way we respond to a living person, is very different and much more demanding than our response to a logical proposition.

Direct Claims of Jesus I am the Light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life. I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes on Me shall never thirst. I am the Resurrection and the Life! He who believes in Me, though he die, yet he shall live. “I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd lays down His life for the sheep”.
