Bible Question:
Hi Doc, Thanks for your response. Can you direct me to a couple of verses that identify Christ as God. I need this for tonight and don't have time to look up. |
Bible Answer: Hi, Marcella... There are piles of passages that prove that Christ is God. Here's a classic that is worthy of filling in the Margins of Hebrews chapter 1 in your Bible. (What I mean is this: Note the attribute in the margin, then place the reference passages beside them. (Everyone needs a Bible with wide margins!) I often go a further step by marking the reference verses back again. For example, I make a note on John 1:1 citing back to Hebrews 1:1-2a, etc. When you do this, your Bible is always prepared for you to work through an issue.) Anyway, here's what you're after: Based on Hebrews 1 Jesus... ...Speaks as God speaks (verses 1 through 2a) (cf John 1:1, 14; 8:43-47) ...Owns everything that God owns (verse 2b) (cf Matthew 11:27; Colossians 1:16) ...Is everything that God is (verse 3a) (cf John 1:1; 14:9; Colossians 1:15) ...Does everything that God does (verse 3b) (cf John 5:19; Colossians 1:17) ...Gets all the honors that God gets (verse 6) (cf Matthew 28:17; John 5:23) ...Has the titles of God (verses 8 and 10) (cf Isaiah 9:6; John 1:1; 20:28; Romans 10:9-13; Philippians 2:9-11; Titus 2:13-14; 2 Peter 1:1, 11) ...Will rule as long as God rules (verses 8 and 9) (cf Luke 1:33; Ephesians 1:21) ...Made everything God made (verse 10) (cf Psalm 102:25-27; Is. 44:24; John 1:3; Colossians 1:16) ...Is as dependable as God is (verses 11 and 12) (cf John 14:1; Hebrews 13:8) ...Is as exalted as God is (verse 13) (cf Matthew 28:18; Ephesians 1:20-22; Philippians 2:9-11) In Him, Doc |
