Shaping Jesus

“Blaise Pascal said, ‘God made man in His own image, and man returned the compliment.’ In every age and culture we tend to shape Jesus to our own image and make Him over to our own needs in order to cope with the stress His unedited presence creates. But Jesus in our image is always a dreadfully small deity.”
