vocabulary than any other writer in history, and the

of Life everlasting.” 135
• Again, Lord Byron, English poet and one of the
greatest literary geniuses of recent centuries, said, “If
ever man was God or God man, Jesus Christ

• W. E. Biederwolf said this:
“A man who can read the New Testament and not
see that Christ claims to be more than a man can
look all over the sky at high noon on a cloudless day
and not see the sun.” 137
• Noah Webster, a great Christian and a great
intellect, when asked if he could comprehend
Christ said:
“I should be ashamed to acknowledge Him as my
Saviour if I could comprehend Him—He would be
no greater than myself. Such is my sense of sin, and
consciousness of my inability to save myself, that I
feel I need a superhuman Saviour—one so great and
glorious that I cannot comprehend Him.” 138
Yes, we may apprehend Christ, but we cannot
comprehend Him and embrace Him or wrap our mind
around Him, or we would be greater than He.
