Man Who Never Lost an Argument
There is one man who was challenged by the great minds of his time who was questioned by lawyers and public figures of all faiths yet not once did his words ever contradict or was he ever in a corner that he could not flee from.
This man was so good with words because he was from the beginning "The Word". Meet the man who never lost an argument Jesus Christ.
"I will also ask you one thing, which if you tell Me, I will also tell you by what authority I do these things. The baptism of John was from what source, from heaven or from men?" Matthew 21:24
....We do not know
Jesus was never caught out in an argument or asked something he did not know the perfect answer to. Usually in an argument people are saying one thing with their mouth yet meaning another with their heart. Jesus always answered what they meant in their heart rather then what they meant with their mouth.
Tell us then, what do You think? Is it lawful to give a poll-tax to Caesar, or not? But Jesus perceived their malice, and said, "Why are you testing me you hypocrites? Matthew 22:17-18
Jesus was often threatened by mobs seeking to take his life because of the way he answered the questions they asked with their hearts.
Wouldn't that be great when people are questioning you that you could answer the question they asked with their heart. Jesus says the same Spirit that was upon Jesus can be upon us when we become entangled in an argument.
"for the Holy Spirit will teach you in that very hour what you ought to say." Luke 12:12
