Easter Reflections: 7 Levels of Belief in Christ

Linda and Richard Eyre

There are at least seven levels of belief in Jesus that can be summarized in the following statements:

Level One: I believe he was a historical figure, but most of what is said about him is fiction or legend rather than history.

Level Two: I believe he was a remarkable and powerful teacher.

Level Three: I believe he was a charismatic leader who developed the most beautiful philosophy of life ever devised.

Level Four: I believe he was more than a man, more than a great teacher—he was the Son of God.

Level Five: I believe he was the Son of God and is our Savior. He died and atoned for our sins and was then resurrected.

Level Six: I have accepted Him as my Savior and have been born again.

Level Seven: Having been born again, I strive to know Him better each day and to progress by trying to grow consistently more like Him.

Which level are you at now and where would you like to get to?
