2/1/15: 4th Sunday of Ordinary Time: Jesus--Liar, Lunatic, or Lord?

The point of today's Gospel is to affirm the radically different way that Jesus taught--claiming God's authority for himself--teaching and acting in only a way that God can. The reaction of the Jews is understandable: Some thought he was a liar; some thought he was a lunatic; some thought he was Lord. Jesus was not just a nice guy. He forced people to make a decision about whether or not they believed in him.
