- Question, is Jesus God? Did Jesus ever claim to be God? In this video, I'll answer those questions from a biblical perspective.
- 00:06
- Afterwards, I'll point you to some helpful resources, so stick around until the end. The Bible never records
- 00:17
- Jesus saying the precise words, I am God. That does not mean, however, that He did not proclaim that He is
- 00:23
- God. Take for example, Jesus' words in John 10 .30, I and the Father are one.
- 00:29
- We need only to look at the Jews' reaction to His statement to know that He was claiming to be God. They tried to stone
- 00:34
- Him for this very reason, you, a mere man, claim to be God. The Jews understood exactly what
- 00:40
- Jesus was claiming, deity. When Jesus declared, I and the Father are one, He was saying that He and the
- 00:46
- Father are of one nature and essence. John 8 .58 is another example. Jesus declared,
- 00:52
- I tell you the truth, before Abraham was born, I am. Jews who heard this statement responded by taking up stones to kill
- 00:58
- Him for blasphemy as the Mosaic Law commanded. John reiterates the concept of Jesus' deity.
- 01:04
- The Word, Jesus, was God, and the Word became flesh. These verses clearly indicate that Jesus is
- 01:10
- God in the flesh. In Acts 20 .28 tells us, "...be shepherds of the church of God, which He bought with His own blood."
- 01:16
- Who bought the church with His own blood? Jesus Christ. And this same verse declares that God purchased
- 01:22
- His church with His own blood. Therefore, Jesus is God. Thomas, the disciple, declared concerning Jesus, My Lord and My God.
- 01:29
- Jesus does not correct him. Titus 2 .13 encourages us to wait for the coming of our God and Savior, Jesus Christ.
- 01:36
- In Hebrews 1 .8, the Father declares of Jesus, But about the Son He says, Your throne,
- 01:41
- O God, will last forever and ever, and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom. The Father refers to Jesus as,
- 01:49
- O God, indicating that Jesus is indeed God. In Revelation, an angel instructs the apostle
- 01:54
- John to only worship God. Several times in Scripture, Jesus receives worship. He never rebukes people for worshiping
- 02:01
- Him. If Jesus were not God, He would have told people not to worship Him, just as the angel in Revelation did.
- 02:07
- There are many other passages in Scripture that argue for Jesus as a deity. The most important reason that Jesus has to be
- 02:14
- God is that if He is not God, His death would not have been sufficient to pay the penalty for the sins of the world.
- 02:21
- A created being, which Jesus would be if He were not God, could not pay the infinite penalty required for sin against an infinite
- 02:29
- God. Only God could pay such an infinite penalty. Only God could take on the sins of the world, die, and be resurrected, proving
- 02:37
- His victory over sin and death. Hungry for more? Subscribe so you don't miss the next video! Visit GotQuestions .org
