Lunatic, liar, or Lord. That, according to Aquinas, is our choice. Those are the only options which Christ leaves us.

If He was a lunatic or liar, then we cannot trust anything He says, even the stuff about love one another that cafeteria Christians adore so much. Such ranting would be as worthless as anything else He might have said.

This is a man who went up to complete strangers and said, "I can forgive your sins". How are we supposed to take that? He was lying, which many would say, He was crazy, which, on a purely human level, would make sense...or He meant exactly that.

Lunatic, liar, or Lord. What do you think? That may be the most important question you'll ever face.
