Subject: Where does Jesus say He is God? |
Bible Note: And, Steve, it was for this very cause -- that Jesus claimed to be God -- that Jesus was despised and rejected and that gave rise to the plot to do away with Him which eventually led to His crucifixion. Had He gone along with the crowd, denied who He actually was, toned down his teaching and coddled to the will and wishes of the Pharisees, it is highly unlikely that He would have faced a mock trial that ended with His death on a cross. The debt we owe our Savior for who He is and for what He has done is beyond comprehension. --Hank |
