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.” ― C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is the Savior and Lord of my life, the lover of my soul, the one who knows all about me and loves me anyway. Did I get it right?

It is possible, that the options are Lord, Liar, Lunatic, or Legend. Still though the evidence is clear, that Lord, is the only one that stands up to scrutiny.

Spot on Broiher,I kinda figured there was a good chance you've read them.....I like his writing,you? Yes, I like it. In the early 1980s, I had a tape, tract, and roadside services ministry, called Crossfire Ministries. One of the things I did was replicate cassette tapes for redistribution at no charge. Among those, were some by Josh McDowell, based on that book. As good as his books were, his lectures were a lot of fun, back in the days of Campus Crudade for Christ. I believe they are now known as CRU, so as not to offend the sensibilities of Muslims. While I am not a fan of being politically correct, I do think that one was a good choice.

Did you distribute in Fla,NY or did you advertise?I can't help but think I got something from your Ministry ,once upon a time.....perhaps I was visiting a relative in California & was Blessed on the roadside?
