2 | Is Jesus really God? | Heb 13:8 | kalos | 10291 | ||
Your question: Is Jesus really God? . . . The following outline is taken from Baker Topical Guide to the Bible, Walter A. Elwell, (Grand Rapids, MI: Baker Books, 1991), ISBN 0-8010-2255-X, pp. 88-106. Note: Baker's includes 19 FULL-SIZE BOOK PAGES in double columns containing Bible passages establishing the Deity of Christ. The Scripture references are far too numerous to include here. Also, I would suggest you read the entire New Testament, particularly the Gospel of John and the other gospels. Luke 16:31: "If they do not listen to Moses and the Prophets, neither will they be persuaded if someone rises from the dead." Likewise, if they do not listen to Jesus Himself (the Gospels) and the Apostles (NT Epistles), they wouldn't believe if they were eyewitnesses to Jesus' resurrection. Here is my answer.
