As C.S. Lewis said, if the Jesus who said this was not the God he claimed to be, then his words would imply a silliness and conceit unrivaled by any other character in human history.

The one thing we know is that Jesus could not have been merely a good teacher and prophet---he claimed to be God. He didn’t just claim to be a teacher and a prophet. If he really is God, calling him a teacher and a prophet would be a patronizing insult and tantamount to a total rejection of his claim. If on the other hand he’s not God, even though he said he was, then how can you call him a good prophet?
