Lesson:
During an invocation
this week, the one praying referred to Jesus as our “Master Teacher” but made
no reference to Him being our Lord and Savior.
As she was praying, I was praying as well but I was praying to my Lord
and Savior, Jesus Christ, who really is the Son of God and died for me and her. Let’s open our eyes and see God.

Why is self-examination important?

What difference does it make if we see Jesus as the Son of
God?
“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 must make your choice. Either this man was,
and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. 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, Mere
Christianity
