"Many who are the greatest now will be the least important then, and there are those who seem the least important now who will be the greatest then."
Cassius Clay, later Mohamed Ali, said many times; "I am the greatest of all time". It was not true and he has shown himself to be mortal in these latter days. Many kings and potentates of the past and even presidents of today believe they were the greatest of all time. Most of them are not even remembered or thought of today. Many scholars, scientists, theologians and other brilliant men have thought of themselves as the greatest who ever lived. They had inflated opinions of themselves and although they had a place of prominence at one time, where are they now? So, WHO IS THE GREATEST, of all time?
In contrast to the above pretenders, there are many people who seemed unimportant at the time of their lives on earth, but, in fact they advanced the kingdom of Heaven and gave all they had for Jesus Christ the Lord God. They spread the "good news", and obeyed their Lord and Saviour. Many who were seen as the least important are now the most important in the kingdom of God. Conversely, many who considered themselves first and foremost on earth will be considered the least in the kingdom of God, if they are even present there. The true test was not what we did for ourselves on earth, it was what we did for others and what we did to advance the kingdom of God. Remember the meek shall inherit the earth.
So the answer to, WHO IS THE GREATEST, is the Lord Jesus Christ. He never fails, He is the only one who was perfect and omnipotent. Our Lord was the greatest of all time, not any man! You may not seem important to the world right now, but, you can become one of the greatest in the kingdom of Heaven if you give your life to Jesus Christ and do everything you can to spread His "good news". You can lose your life for His sake and come to the knowledge that life is not all about you, but, all about Him. If you are asked the question, who is the greatest of all time, you should know the answer without hesitation. Jesus Christ is the one, WHO IS THE GREATEST!
