*In the [[New Testament]], Jesus '''claimed''' to be the Divine Son of God who voluntarily gave His life as atonement for all sins.

*A wise person could make the claim but then he cannot be good because a good person would not lie and say he is divine when he knows that he is not.

Therefore, [[Jesus]] cannot be both good ''and'' wise unless He is exactly who He says He is: the Divine Son of God.
