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