Many people argue especially from other religions that Jesus is not God. Some other beliefs even claim that Jesus is the Angel Michael. We all know that God the Father, is the Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, with God himself declaring Jesus as His son - Psalms 2:7 I will declare the decree: the LORD hath said unto me, Thou art my Son; this day have I begotten thee. 2:12 Kiss the Son, lest he be angry, and ye perish from the way, when his wrath is kindled but a little. Blessed are all they that put their trust in him. Matthew 3:17 And lo a voice from heaven, saying, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased. Matthew 17:5 While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him. Now that we have established that Jesus is the son of God, God the Father made Jesus one with him and handed to Jesus everything He created John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. 1:2 The same was in the beginning with God. 1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. Philippians 2:6 Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: 2.7 But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men: 2:8 And being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross. 2:9 Wherefore God also hath highly exalted him, and given him a name which is above every name: 2:10 That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; 2:11 And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father. Now we have established that Jesus was in the form of God - no Prophet or Angel or Man can say he/she is equal to God the Father. To Christians, we can also call Jesus Christ -God. This is because He is our Saviour and died for us to be saved and be called God's children after Satan used demonic cultures to steal us away to destruction - Revelation 1:1 The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: 1:5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, 1:6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. The above is what Jesus Christ did for believers. So Christians are right to call Jesus God. So instead of Arguing and bantering, why not go to God in prayer and ask him to reveal himself to you. Remember, all human beings will be judged by Jesus Christ because the Father has given him the power to do so.. so whatever you worship or pray to, you must face Jesus Christ the son of God. Revelation 1:7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. Matthew 11:27 All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son will reveal him. Revelation 22:12 And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be. 22:13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last. 22:16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star. Revelation 1:17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: 1:18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death. Shalom! Take heed! |

The mystery of the person of Jesus is beyond religious doctrine and biological explanation. It is a different kind of reality. |

thesolutions:There is no mystery about who Jesus is. He is clearly the son of God according to John 3:16. |

Michael547:Your response will only stir up a debate. Please calm down and not deviate. God is a mystery. |
| Re: Why Jesus Is God To Christians And Believers by Michael547(m): 8:15am On Dec 29, 2024 |
thesolutions:The Almighty or Jesus is a mystery? Which one? |
| Re: Why Jesus Is God To Christians And Believers by thesolutions(m): 8:23am On Dec 29, 2024 |
Michael547:John 10:30 |
| Re: Why Jesus Is God To Christians And Believers by thesolutions(m): 8:25am On Dec 29, 2024 |
Michael547:I believe they are both the same. I did not separate or differentiate. Mystery. |
| Re: Why Jesus Is God To Christians And Believers by Michael547(m): 8:25am On Dec 29, 2024 |
thesolutions:So if The father and Jesus are one, does that stop the Father from being greater than him in John 14:28? |
| Re: Why Jesus Is God To Christians And Believers by Michael547(m): 8:27am On Dec 29, 2024 |
thesolutions:If they are both the same, How would you explain John 14:28 |
| Re: Why Jesus Is God To Christians And Believers by thesolutions(m): 8:28am On Dec 29, 2024 |
Michael547:I will understand better if you can explain the mystery where the father and Jesus is one. Oh , you said it is not a mystery. |
| Re: Why Jesus Is God To Christians And Believers by Michael547(m): 8:32am On Dec 29, 2024 |
thesolutions:There is no mystery in that statement. Jesus prayed to the father for his disciples to be one with him and his father in John 17:21. If you understand that, then you can understand the idea of Father and Jesus is one. King James Bible That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may be one in us: that the world may believe that thou hast sent me. |
