Articles from The Greatest Person

World Opinion?

If you conducted an opinion poll on the entire population of the world, asking who is the greatest person who has ever lived, an overwhelming majority would surely choose Jesus Christ. He would be a long way ahead of his nearest rival. No other world figure commands such universal allegiance...

The Greatest...Teacher?

Even the greatest doubters are profoundly impressed by his teaching. The Sermon on the Mount expresses the highest ideals of mankind. For instance: We should treat others as we would want to be treated. To think bad thoughts is as evil as acting on them. Our word should be our...

The Greatest... Character?

Perhaps we have grown accustomed to his values and do not appreciate how extraordinary his behaviour was. We may take it for granted that we should care for the sick, the disadvantaged, the weak, the ignorant and the outsider. But where did such civilising ideas come from? It was the radical...

The Greatest... Deeds?

The most extraordinary deeds were attributed to Christ. The apostle John, in his account, called them 'signs': that is, authenticating signs, pointing to Christ's true identity. So, for instance, he is reported to have stilled a storm, leaving his followers dumbfounded. The Psalmist had written of God, 'He stills the...

The Greatest...Death?

Christ's execution at the hands of the Romans in about 30AD must surely be the most famous death of all time. His cross became the central symbol of Christianity, but why was it so significant? The apostle Paul, in a letter he wrote around 54AD to the Christians in Corinth, gave...

The Greatest...Surprise?

Now we come to the crunch. For we are told that when men had rejected and crucified Jesus, God publicly set his seal on him by raising him from the dead! However improbable such an event may seem, the evidence for his resurrection continues to withstand the most careful scrutiny....

The Greatest...Offer?

This eternal life begins now. Jesus said, 'I have come that you may have life and have it to the full'. We can only live life to the full when we understand: where we have come from, what we should be doing here and where we are going. Jesus gives us this...

What Next?

Many people have dismissed Christian belief on the basis of second-hand knowledge or ideas they had in childhood. It is very difficult to draw conclusions about Jesus without going through the Gospels for yourself, with your adult intelligent mind. If you feel it is time to do this, you might...

Becoming a Christian?

The following prayer outlines what is involved in becoming a Christian. It may help to guide and focus your thoughts. It should not be prayed lightly. Lord Jesus, I realise that I have been running my own life my own way and have not acknowledged you as my rightful master....
