Question: Is Jesus God?
The question of whether Jesus is God is a theological one that has been a topic of discussion and debate among Christians for centuries.
Different Christian denominations and theological perspectives have varying interpretations on how to answer this question.
Jesus is both fully divine and fully human, and He is considered one of the persons of the one God or “God-head”.
Key passages in the Bible that are often cited in support of Jesus' divinity include:
1. John 1:1-14** - This passage speaks of the Word (Jesus) being with God and being God, and that the Word became flesh and dwelt among us. Jesus is both the Word and God.
2. John 10:30** - Jesus says, "I and My Father are one," which we interpret as a statement of His divinity. Again, One God. Not separate Gods. Part of the triune God.
3. Colossians 2:9** - "For in Him [Jesus] dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily."
4. Philippians 2:6** - Describes Jesus as being in the form of God.
Yes, Jesus is God! He was fully man, and yet fully God!
In Greek, the word "Logos" (Λόγος) has various meanings and can be translated in several ways depending on the context. Some of the common translations and meanings of "Logos" include:
Logos = “Word”
One of the most well-known translations of "Logos" is "Word." This is often used in theological contexts, especially in the Gospel of John, where Jesus is referred to as the "Word" (John 1:1-14), emphasizing His divine nature and role in creation.
"Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God, the LORD is one!"
-Deuteronomy 6:4-15
This verse is known as the Shema and is a central declaration of the Jewish faith, emphasizing the monotheistic nature of God. It is recited as a part of daily Jewish prayer and serves as a statement of faith in Judaism.

Thank you, Todd, for how hard you and your wife work for the Lord! Your frequent God honoring messages give me knowledge and understanding-- strengthening my walk in Him. I pray God blesses your ministry on a MEGA SCALE because you love and fear Him. Your heart is right where it needs to be---with love for God and His creation, you unashamedly, boldly, without compromise speak the Word. I find your honesty freeing---something I've desperately been seeking for 15+ years. I pray God continues to bless you with good health and energy. Crossing your path, God has blessed me big time- introducing me to pastors that enable me to mature my Christian walk. Thank you!

Clearly there is no co-equal relationship between father and his only begotten son, for he and all creation does the will of God the divine author of all things

But God has worked out a way to be both just (not a liar like satan who said thou shall not surely die) and the justifier of all in christ jesus

[@oete9259]

Adam fell short if perfect justice, God could not himself violate perfect justice by paying for Adams sin himself making himself a liar but has worked out a way to be both just and the justifier of alll who accept the merit of jesus.

The transliteral meaning of phil 2:6 Jesus did not think equality with God a thing to be grasped, (as did satan)....exactly the oposite meaning jesus did not grasp after equality
