C.S. Lewis: The Importance of Trust

A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. C.S. Lewis says, I am trying here to prevent anyone saying the really foolish thing that people often say about him. You can shut him up for a fool, or 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 up with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher. He did not intend to.
