‘Jesus Christ is NOT GOD, He is a Prophet and Messenger of God!’ - This was displayed on a banner in front of a Mosque in Lekki, Lagos, Nigeria recently and caused a lot of uproar among Christians!

Looking critically at the Bible, is Jesus really God or the son of God? Does He have equal powers as God? Does He always share same ideas as God?(Rebuking his disciples who wanted to call down fire like Elijah,modifying the laws of Moses,asking why His Father forgot Him on the cross and many others).

Why would Jesus have to pray to God all the time if He was God? Why would He teach us in the Lord’s Prayer to pray to His Heavenly Father? Why did the father send Him to die for the world?

Jesus is currently seated at the right hand of God in heaven(Mark16:19,Heb 1:3). This invariably confirms He is not God but the son of God! He answers unto God and He is not completely equal to God. However, He might have played the role of a messenger of God and prophet in the world but that doesn’t remove from the fact He is the son of God(John 3:16).

Jesus is God!

Ok. Explain John 1:18 if John 1:1 means that Jesus is the Almighty God.
Who is the God that no one has seen?

Jesus christ is God. John 1:1.
In the same scripture some people saw God.

Genesis 32:30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.

Judges 13:22 And Manoah said unto his wife, We shall surely die, because we have seen God.

Exodus 24:11 And upon the nobles of the children of Israel he laid not his hand: also they saw God, and did eat and drink.

So Oga explain John 1:18 na.....which God does John 1:18 says that no one has seen?

King James Bible
No man hath seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared him.
