JESUS CHRIST: LUNATIC, LIAR, OR LORD?
Jesus . . . told people that their sins were forgiven. . . .
This makes sense only if He really was the God whose laws are broken and whose love is wounded in every sin. . . . I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say about Him: "I'm ready to accept Jesus as a great moral teacher, but I don't accept His claim to be God." 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 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, in MERE CHRISITIANITY (New York: Macmillan, 1952), p. 56-57
