You're in a conversation and someone says, "Jesus was a good teacher, but he wasn't God."

What would you say?

Many people instinctively like Jesus, but they’re not ready to call him God. They want him to be another Moses, Confucius, or Buddha. They want him to be just a wise human teacher. Here’s the problem: Jesus didn’t leave that option open to us. He unambiguously and repeatedly claimed deity, and no one who lied in that way could ever be a good moral teacher.

So, the next time someone says “Jesus was a good teacher, but he wasn’t God,” here are three things to remember.

First, Jesus claimed to be God again and again.
Second, if we can’t trust the gospels on Jesus’ claims to be God, we can’t trust them on his moral teaching, either.
Third, if Jesus wasn’t God, he couldn’t have said the things he said and still be considered a good teacher.
