I understand your position and appreciate it.

But there is a problem - Jesus' own words e.g. in John 10, where he claimed identity with God; or in Luke 7, where he forgave sins. As C.S. Lewis said,

"A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic—on the level with the man who says he is a poached egg—or else he would be the Devil of Hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse."

I don’t agree with the interpretation of C. S. Lewis on this.
