Several times I’ve heard and read about Jesus Christ is not God. Unfortunately, they quote bible verse for their rationale, conversely, though, there is an abundance of proof written in the bible that Jesus Christ is God. Obviously, these unbelievers confined their bible readings within the bound of their liking. God is too big and too depth to understand, he’s beyond human’s full comprehension but we’re accountable for what has been revealed about him (Deuteronohmy 29:29). Thus, limiting our learning and understanding of God with certain boundaries would render what is meager to nothing. However, a prayerful and diligent study will enable anyone to find the truth written in the bible about Jesus Christ as God.
It’s important to note that Numbers 23:19 talks about the character of God vis-à-vis a fallen man. Though man sinned and fall short of God’s glory, and continuously rebel against his precepts; God is steadfastly faithful, never forsake his words and fulfill his promise, as he gave the man the mandate to govern and rule over all creations (Genesis 1:28).
For this reason, God with his great love for his fallen and depraved creations sent his only begotten son (John 3:16) to become a man in the person of Jesus Christ (John 1:14) in order to redeem, save and reestablish his original purpose (Philippians 2:5-8). True to his words, Almighty God in his sovereign power shall let man accomplish his purpose. The son of God has had to become a man. There’s no other capable and qualified to become the redeemer of the fallen man. It’s the God, the Son of God, the Man, Jesus Christ.
The full essence of God is beyond human comprehension and not confine with empirical evidence, time and space, but revealed enough for a man to understand and know that Jesus Christ is God.
1. Matthew 16:9 – 5,000 people Jesus fed with five loaves of bread with baskets of leftovers.
2. Matthew 14:25-26 – Jesus defied the law of gravity by walking on the water.
3. John 11:43-44 – Jesus raised the dead man Lazarus by mere words.
4. Matthew 8:1-3 – Jesus healed the man with leprosy without any dose of medicines.
5. John 20:26-29 – Jesus was resurrected from the dead; showed to skeptic Thomas the nail marks on his palms.
There many more stories in the bible about Jesus Christ miracle work that no other has done, neither anyone is capable of doing, even the present claimants as “son of God.” And, Jesus himself claimed he is God-study thoroughly Mark 14:62.
