Conservative talk with lots of laughs!
C.S. Lewis, by the way, if you haven't read any of C.S. Lewis, you really, really should.
He's a very great writer, not heavy theological, just very readable in mere Christianity.
If you like science fiction, science fact, what is called a space trilogy, there's all sorts of things.
The abolition of man, a grief observed when his wife died, so that's very comforting to millions of people.
C.S. Lewis wrote, The really foolish thing that people often say about Jesus is, I'm ready to accept him as a great moral teacher, but I don't accept his claim to be God.
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 a level with a man who says he's a poached egg, or else he would be the devil of hell.
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, kill him as a demon, or you can fall at his feet and call him Lord and God.
However, let us not come up with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher.
The conclusion of millions and millions of people down through history, whether peasants or scholars, has been that Jesus lived, died, and lives again to change the lives of those who will accept him as he really is.
great need of the world today is to see Jesus for who he really is, the Savior of the world, and to place their trust in his finished work on Calvary.
