The Surprising Genius of Jesus - Q&A (Peter J. Williams)

Jesus Christ is known the world over for his teachings, and he is widely admired for his wisdom and insight. He is often associated with kindness, gentleness, meekness, and love⏤even love for one’s enemies. His life has impacted world history like no one else, and he has inspired many. But when we think of Jesus, we tend not to consider him for his intellect. Yet, no one would deny that as the Son of God he must have been the smartest man who ever lived.
In fact, Jesus was a genius, and his genius can be seen in his teachings. Dr. Peter J. Williams, Principal of Tyndale House, Cambridge, will explore the teachings of Jesus and pull the curtain back on Jesus’s incredible intellect.

Only one who could boil complex concepts into words and models that convey that information into understandable connotations has mastered the information. The brilliance of Jesus, is that He took the most complicated concepts in the world…God, redemption, humanity, sin, the spiritual realm, right and wrong, origin of life the universe etc. His ability to understand these realities…make them understandable to his hearers…only demonstrates His brilliance while underscoring His resurrection that He is a person of the Triune God of the Universe…genius to us…omnipotence or His everyday…to Christ!

Where does the Son of God get his info...God!?

This video is a Q and A session and therefore haphazard. Many questions explored the authorship of the ideas and teachings in the four gospels. I understand the apologetic necessity of addressing these questions, but I was disappointed that there was so little spiritual food on the table.

Have you watched the previous two videos in this series? This Q&A sessions was a follow up to about two hours's worth of teaching.

Familiarity breeds contempt.
