I Love Cs Lewis
One of my favorite 20th century writers, philosophers, and Christian apologists. Lewis was an atheist who came to faith in Christ later in life.
A favorite quote concerning who Jesus claimed to be:
"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 a 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."
