Who Did Jesus Proclaim to Be?

Summary

The sermon argues against the modern myth that Jesus was merely a moral teacher, asserting instead that his claim to divinity was central to his message. Citing the Gospel of John, it highlights Jesus's explicit identification with the "I AM" statements, linking himself to God's manifestations to Moses and Abraham. The practical takeaway is that Jesus’s followers understood his divine claims, which is why they reacted with hostility, and that his divinity is the core of his truth.
