Bold

John 18:37 (NIV)

You are right to say that I am a King.

The essential difference between Christ and all the other prophets is that Jesus never lied about who He is. He also never cringed from His identity due to false modesty or piety. He was not afraid of offending those around Him. In fact, His claim to divinity so outraged the Pharisees that they murdered Him. We live in a world where it's not politically correct to identify oneself with the Lord. As Christians, we should summon the same courage in the Holy Spirit to identify with the Master rather than cringe in fear.
