great question. why even people call him God? bcoz he claimed so?
did he expicitly did that? or bcoz he was born without father? Adam was born without father and mother? Adam is God? bcoz he is ressuracted? We all will be resurracted? We are all GOD?
Bcoz he's alive? Elijah is also alive? Elizah is God? Bcoz he performed miracles? Lot's of prophets before him did that?
Are they God? Bcoz some specific miracles? Define what miracles will or won't made someone God? PROFOUND STUPIDITY.
So, you say that God The Father raised Jesus from death 3 days after crucifixion.
God The Son raised Lazarus less time than that. Lazarus is God?
Lazarus suffered more time than Jesus.Lazarus is God The UNCLE who paid for your sin too?

answer to debee gee:
So Jesus was his own son? He impregnated his mom? damn stupid answer.

answer to Marillita:
conceived by the Holy Spirit? that bird? So Jesus was whose son? The Bird's son or the Old Man God's son?

answer to peaches:
What is the speciality of "3" days. and where the hell you see him sitted by God?

answer to Techietoast:
raising the dead is not something unique to Jesus. Ask the Jews.
According to ur Bible(also the Torah part for the Jews)--
Elisha had the same power to raise the dead; that man, being obedient to the Spirit of God in him could arrive at as great, or greater, degree of righteousness, than Jesus Christ.

Answer 1

I Don't Know Why Christian People Call Jesus God!!!He's NoT!!

Answer 2

The word "trinity" is not mentioned in the Bible, however, it is understood that God is a personal God in three persons, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. God choose Mary ("a virgin whom found favor with Him" Luke 1) to bear His Son, Jesus. Jesus came to Earth as a human but with Godly properties to die on the cross and rise from the dead for our sins. He did so because he committed no sin and became the sacrificial lamb for our sins so that we do not have to use anything or anybody as a go between you and God. The Holy Spirit comes to us as a means to ease on pains and sorrows. The miracles that Jesus performed could not duplicated because he was God as well. Jesus was able to raise Lazarus from the dead because he was God. No human can raise people from the dead.

What is the origin of the Trinity doctrine?

The New Encyclopædia Britannica says: “Neither the word Trinity, nor the explicit doctrine as such, appears in the New Testament, nor did Jesus and his followers intend to contradict the Shema in the Old Testament: ‘Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord’ (Deut. 6:4). . . . The doctrine developed gradually over several centuries and through many controversies. . . . By the end of the 4th century . . . the doctrine of the Trinity took substantially the form it has maintained ever since.”—(1976), Micropædia, Vol. X, p. 126.

The New Catholic Encyclopedia states: “The formulation ‘one God in three Persons’ was not solidly established, certainly not fully assimilated into Christian life and its profession of faith, prior to the end of the 4th century. But it is precisely this formulation that has first claim to the title the Trinitarian dogma. Among the Apostolic Fathers, there had been nothing even remotely approaching such a mentality or perspective.”—(1967), Vol. XIV, p. 299.

In The Encyclopedia Americana we read: “Christianity derived from Judaism and Judaism was strictly Unitarian [believing that God is one person]. The road which led from Jerusalem to Nicea was scarcely a straight one. Fourth century Trinitarianism did not reflect accurately early Christian teaching regarding the nature of God; it was, on the contrary, a deviation from this teaching.”—(1956), Vol. XXVII, p. 294L.

According to the Nouveau Dictionnaire Universel, “The Platonic trinity, itself merely a rearrangement of older trinities dating back to earlier peoples, appears to be the rational philosophic trinity of attributes that gave birth to the three hypostases or divine persons taught by the Christian churches. . . . This Greek philosopher’s [Plato, fourth century B.C.E.] conception of the divine trinity . . . can be found in all the ancient [pagan] religions.”—(Paris, 1865-1870), edited by M. Lachâtre, Vol. 2, p. 1467.

John L. McKenzie, S.J., in his Dictionary of the Bible, says: “The trinity of persons within the unity of nature is defined in terms of ‘person’ and ‘nature’ which are G[ree]k philosophical terms; actually the terms do not appear in the Bible. The trinitarian definitions arose as the result of long controversies in which these terms and others such as ‘essence’ and ‘substance’ were erroneously applied to God by some theologians.”—(New York, 1965), p. 899.

2004 Encarta Encyclopedia.

Trinity (theology), in Christian theology, doctrine that God exists as three persons-Father, Son, and Holy Spirit-who are united in one substance or being. The doctrine is not taught explicitly in the New Testament, where the word god almost invariably refers to the Father; but already Jesus Christ, the Son, is seen as standing in a unique relation to the Father, while the Holy Spirit is alos emerging as a distinct devine person.

Trinity
Encyclopædia Britannica Article

in Christian doctrine, the unity of Father, Son, and Holy Spirit as three persons in one Godhead.

Neither the word Trinity nor the explicit doctrine appears in the New Testament, nor did Jesus and his followers intend to contradict the Shema in the Old Testament: “Hear, O Israel: The Lord our God is one Lord” (Deuteronomy 6:4).

Answer 4

1) God DECLARED from heaven at Christ's baptism, "This is My Son."
2) Jesus Christ declares that the Father and He is one.
3) Christ validates His claim by rising three days later from the dead, proving that He is of the Lord and that what He tells us is true.
4) Christ performs those miracles by the authority of God, for He drives out demons, those are not satanic powers, for what kind of a kingdom works against itself?

Also, Isaiah 9:6 - "For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."

The verse is clearly referring to Christ.

Isaiah 7:14 - "Therefore the Lord himself will give you a sign: The virgin will be with child and will give birth to a son, and will call him Immanuel."

Immanuel is translated as "God with us."
