RBP 231: Joy Behar: "Jesus not Messiah but a Narcissist"

About this episode

The episode discusses Joy Behar's controversial statements about Jesus and explores the implications of viewing Jesus as the Messiah.

Episode 231 While discussing Donald Trump, Joy Behar, the ever-productive source of insane speech, claimed that Jesus never called Himself the Messiah. She said that with a straight face, full conviction, without hesitation or doubt. When rebutted by her cohosts, Behar declared that it would be narcissistic for anyone to declare themselves the Messiah, even if, as in Jesus' case, you really are. Trump's narcissism was the context for this discussion on The View, but it reveals something deeper about what Behar and the entire panel thinks of who Jesus is and what He came to do. Who, exactly is Jesus Christ? Is He the promised Messiah? Do we have to believe that Jesus is the Messiah in order to be right with God? What happens if we don't? On this episode of the Removing Barriers podcast, we react to the sound clip, but we also take a look at the Biblical underpinnings of Christ's claims as Messiah, and why we should believe Him.
