Keep in mind that Jesus died for using a similar phrase. Yes, He was put to death for simply saying some words about His own identity.

He said “You shall see [Him] coming on the clouds of heaven...” He was quoting from an old testament verse where it was GOD Who was coming on the clouds of heaven.

He also used the hebrew phrase “Ani Hu” which was considered too holy to utter except once a year by the high priest, and that Jesus would be seated at the Right Hand of Power, which meant He was equal with God Himself.

Far more meaningful, far more consequential to history, far more spiritual than this tightrope walker.

You’re not helping bring people to Jesus with derogatory comments about a man who achieved something powerful. Jesus wanted to inspire others to do amazing things. But there’s nothing inspiring about what you’re saying.
