Jesus Christ is God, the Creator, the Almighty, the Word, the Lord, the Son of God, the Saviour, the only way, never sinned, etc
Part 1
The gospel of John declares that Jesus Christ is God in its first verse. Referring to Christ, John wrote:
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. - John 1:1
The Bible is quite clear that God created all things. This is clearly shown in Genesis 1 and other parts of the Old Testament (Exo 20:11, Exo 31:17, et al).
In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth. - Gen 1:1
But the New Testament declares that Jesus Christ created all things. So the following verses prove that Jesus Christ is God Almighty.
All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made. - John 1:3
He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not. - John 1:10
For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him: - Col 1:16
In the following verse Jesus declares Himself as “I am”.
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. - John 8:58
God used the same phrase about himself in the Old Testament. That phrase means always existed, always will exist. That means Christ is God.
And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am: and he said, thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you. - Exo 3:14
In the following verse, Thomas calls Jesus Christ, “God”. Christ did not correct him.
And Thomas answered and said unto him, My Lord and my God. - John 20:28
In the Old Testament, God refers to Himself as “the first” and “the last” in Isa 41:4, Isa 44:6 and Isa 48:12. Jesus Christ is called “Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending” in Rev 1:8. Christ is called “Alpha and Omega, the first and the last” in Rev 1:11. Jesus Christ is called “the first and the last” in Rev 1:17. Christ is also called “Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end” in Rev 21:6. Finally, Christ is called “Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last” in Rev 22:13. All these prove that Christ is God.
In Rev 1:18, Christ is called “the Almighty”. Thus, Jesus Christ is God.
In Rev 22:6, Jesus Christ is called “the Lord God of the holy prophets”. Again, this is another proof that Christ is God. Note, one of the purposes of the book of Revelation is to declare who Christ is, and that is, Christ is the Almighty, God.
In Micah 5:2, Jesus Christ is said to be “from everlasting”, meaning He has always existed. This is another proof that Christ is God.
In Heb 7:3, the phrase “having neither beginning of days” is attributed to Christ. Thus, Christ has no beginning and is thus God.
Heb 1:8 says, “But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne O God”. Thus, Christ is called God.
In Heb 1:6, it says of Christ, “let all the angles of God worship him”. The angels only worship God, so Christ is God.
In Heb 1:2, it says of Jesus Christ, “by whom also he made the worlds”. So, Christ is the Creator, that is, God Almighty.
In Isa 9:6, it refers to Christ as “The Mighty God”. Again, this proves Jesus Christ is God.
In Daniel 9:24, Christ is referred to as “the most holy”. That proves He is God.
In Rom 15:12, Jesus is referred to as “the root of Jesse”. In Rev 5:5, Christ is called “the Root of David”. And in Rev 22:16, Christ is called “the root and offspring of David”. But in the genealogy of Christ found in Luke 3, the root of Jesse and the root of David is God. So Christ is God.
In 1 Tim 3:16, describes Christ as “God manifest in the flesh”. So, Jesus Christ is God.
Phil 2:6 says of Christ, “Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God”. Again this proves Christ is God.
In 1 Cor 15:47, Jesus is referred to as “the Lord from heaven” and 1 Cor 12:3 says “Jesus is the Lord”. The Lord is God (see Exo 6:2, et al), so both declare that Jesus Christ is God.
In Titus, the phrases, “God our Saviour” and “Christ our Saviour”, appear together 3x, once in each chapter of Titus. So, Christ is God.
In John 3:13, Christ, while on earth says, “the Son of man which is in heaven”. Only God can be in 2 places at once. So, Christ is God.
In 1 Tim 6:15, Jesus Christ is called “the blessed and only Potentate”. That means Christ is God.
In Rev 19:13 and 1 Tim 6:15, Christ is called “the King of kings, and Lord of lords”. All these show that Christ is God.
In 1 Tim 1:17, Jesus is called “the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God”. So, the Lord Jesus Christ is God.
In Titus 2:13, Jesus Christ is called “the great God”. This is another proof that Jesus is God.
In 2 Pet 1:1, Christ is called, “God and our Saviour Jesus Christ”. In Jude 1:25, Jesus Christ is referred to as “to the only wise God, our Saviour”. Both prove Christ is God.
The following passage shows that Christ is God.
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. - 1 Thess 4:14
The following passage also proves that the Lord Jesus Christ is God.
10 But why dost thou judge thy brother? or why dost thou set at nought thy brother? for we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Christ. 11 For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God. 12 So then every one of us shall give account of himself to God. - Rom 14:10-12
Speaking of Jesus, Acts 20:28 says, “to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.” Again this shows Christ is God.
In Acts 7:59, Stephen is “calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit.” Thus Jesus Christ is God.
In Rom 9:5, it says, “Christ came, who is over all, God blessed for ever.” This again shows that Christ is God.
In John 5:23, Jesus Christ says, “That all men should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father.” We honor the Father as God, so we must honor the Son, Jesus Christ, as God.
In Zech 12:10, God says, “they shall look upon me whom they have pierced”. This is a direct proof that Christ is God crucified on the cross.
The following verse declares the triune God Almighty, which means one God in three persons. So Christ, who is the Word, is God, as is the Father and the Holy Ghost.
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. - 1 John 5:7
The triune God Almighty is shown in the following verse. Note that “name” is singular. Thus one God in three persons. Jesus Christ, who is the Son, is God, as is the Father and the Holy Ghost.
Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost: - Matt 28:19
The triune God Almighty was revealed in Genesis 1. Note in the following passage God refers to God as plural 3 times in verse 26. God does not give His glory as Creator to another (see Isa 42:8). So the 3 plural pronouns must refer to God alone. So although there is only one God, singular, God must also be plural. The 3 plural pronouns reveal that there is one God in three persons. The 3 creates in verse 27 also reveal the triune God Almighty.
26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness … 27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. - Gen 1:26-27
The Father, Jesus Christ the Son, and the Holy Spirit are revealed at the baptism of Jesus Christ in all 4 gospel accounts (Matt 3:16-17, Mark 1:10, Luke 3:22, John 1:32). The Father says “thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased” and the Holy Spirit descends as a dove upon Jesus.
In the following verse, God is speaking, but the “me” referred to is Jesus Christ. This reveals the triune God Almighty.
Come ye near unto me, hear ye this; I have not spoken in secret from the beginning; from the time that it was, there am I: and now the Lord God, and his Spirit, hath sent me. - Isa 48:16
Jesus Christ says, “I and my Father are one” (John 10:30). So both the Father and the Son are God.
In Matt 4:10, Jesus says, “Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.”
Therefore, when Christ is worshipped, it proves the He is God. There are 13 times in the 4 gospel accounts where Christ is worshipped.
And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him. - John 9:38
And they worshipped him, and returned to Jerusalem with great joy: - Luke 24:52
Then came to him the mother of Zebedees children with her sons, worshipping him, and desiring a certain thing of him. - Matt 20:20
See also: Matt 2:2, Matt 2:11, Matt 8:2, Matt 9:18, Matt 14:33, Matt 15:25, Matt 28:9, Matt 28:17, Mark 5:6, Luke 24:52.
Jesus Christ said:
I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. – John 8:24
