Jesus and Accommodation

By Bill Gordon

Did Jesus accommodate Himself to the false beliefs of His day?

Biblical critics often claim that Jesus accommodated Himself to the primitive beliefs and myths of the ancient world. Liberal scholars have a long tradition of advocating this accommodation theory. The scriptural evidence, however, indicates that Jesus did not accommodate Himself to the false views of His culture.

This issue is an important question for Christians. For how can Jesus be God if He made false statements? The Bible teaches in Hebrews 6:18 that God cannot tell an untruth. Also, Christian theology insists that error is contrary to the nature of God.
