THE WORDS from the lips of Jesus Christ were so powerful that some Jewish officials described Him as the matchless speaker.
“…The officers then came to the chief priest and Pharisees, who said to them, “Why did you not bring him?” The officers answered, “NO ONE EVER SPOKE LIKE THIS MAN! (John 7:45-46).”
Many people saw and heard Jesus Christ speak. Some of them reported that, “No one ever spoke like Jesus Christ.
The Jewish people who made that observation about the Lord Jesus Christ had read the words of Moses, Samuel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Daniel, Elijah, Elisha and other prophets and they could tell that no one ever spoke like Jesus.
They had read and heard the words of kings like Saul, David, Solomon, Ahab, Jehoshaphat, Nebuchadnezzar, Agrippa and Herod and they could easily make a comparison that none of them ever spoke like Jesus Christ.
The enemies of Christ had heard and read about the words of priests like Aaron, Eli and Caiaphas and they could attest to the fact that no one ever spoke like Him.
They had also heard about the teachings of the Pharisees and Sadducees including Gamaliel and Nicodemus, but they could conclude that no one ever spoke like Jesus Christ.
And no one will ever speak like Jesus Christ. Indeed, God is the only one who can speak the way no man can or will.
His words are Spirit and life which drop powerfully like bombs, building up what is good and destroying what is bad.
Christ had no microphones, yet words from His lips were so potent that they convicted people of sin, healed the sick, cast out devils, raised the death, opened blind eyes, calmed the stormy sea and withered trees.
The words of Jesus Christ destroyed the works of the devil and also built the works of His Father. There was great power and authority in His words.
Now, if no one ever spoke like Jesus Christ, then He must be an extraordinary man.
Obviously, Christ Jesus was and is a unique, exceptional, incomparable, matchless and peerless. As the King of kings, His words must possess power.
Now, not only did the Jews observe that Christ Jesus was the greatest speaker, but also His own disciples took notice of the uniqueness of His words.
