Mere Christianity p.52

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.

– C.S. Lewis

Is Jesus a liar, lunatic, or the Lord?
