Without the saving belief in Jesus Christ, nothing we do has eternal worth.
Have you ever questioned the true nature of Jesus Christ? Mandy Creed Green dives deep into this question in an eye-opening episode of 'Recovery and Restoration'. She starts by shedding light on a surprising statistic: 30% of evangelicals think Jesus was just a good teacher, not God. This, she argues, is a dangerous misconception that can shake the very foundation of Christianity. Using passages from the Bible, Mandy builds a compelling case for Jesus' divinity.
She draws from King David's prophecy in Psalms and explains how Christ is the cornerstone of God's household. Mandy doesn't stop at scripture; she also brings in historical perspectives, like the 2nd Century Greek philosopher Celsus, who wrote about Jesus proclaiming himself a god through miraculous acts. One of the highlights is Mandy's discussion of the famous trilemma popularized by C.S. Lewis: Was Jesus a liar, a lunatic, or Lord?
While Mandy firmly believes Jesus is Lord, she critiques the trilemma for assuming that the gospel accounts are entirely accurate. She also touches on significant moments like Jesus' claim to be one with the Father and his bold declaration to Pilate about being the Son of God. Throughout the episode, Mandy emphasizes that faith in Jesus' divinity isn't just a theological detail; it's essential for eternal worth and restoration.
She encourages listeners to reconcile with God through Christ and to reach out with any questions or prayer requests. By the end of this episode, you'll have a renewed understanding of why believing in Christ’s deity is not just important but essential for your faith journey.
