Jesus—Just a Prophet?
Manage episode 435376537 series 90015
Christians believe that Jesus is God. But that belief’s been attacked, well, since the beginning of the church! For example, many people claim Jesus was a wise prophet. But did Jesus speak like a prophet?
Well, in the Old Testament when prophets spoke, they said “thus saith the Lord” to give God’s authority to their message. When Jesus spoke he said, “I say unto you.” He spoke with his own authority.
He also said “heaven and earth will pass away but my words will never pass away.” Here he was giving his words eternal significance.
Jesus didn’t speak as if he was just a prophet. He spoke as one with divine authority—as God!
