In Isaiah 9:6-7
it says, Unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given. And what is the name of this son?
The "Mighty God" in the next verse.
. JESUS CHRIST IS: "THE MIGHTY GOD.
Isaiah vs 6:
For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace. :)
.
Jesus often said He was the Son. The son., for a reason.
Jesus is the Son..son
God's son=flesh
God's Son=Deity
Mary's son=flesh
Son of God=Deity
son of man=flesh
Son of man=Deity.
Jesus is the Son of man..meaning..He is the DEITY of man.
Jesus being son of man..means He is Mary's son (flesh)
Jesus is both flesh and Deity. It is part of the Trinity.
A easy rule to remember is: Anytime it uses a capital(S) it means Deity.
When it uses a small case (s) it means flesh(man).
Good Q*.

yes Jesus is God. In chapter 1 of John, it says that "the Word was God and the Word was with God and the Word became flesh." Also, in another part of the gospels Jesus told the religious leaders of His time that He is"I am" this was the way that God often used to describe Himself in the old testament; after Jesus said this they tried to stone Him to death because He claimed to be God, but He left unharmed and wasn't stoned.
A lot of sects and cults try to change this. For instance the Jehova's witnesses say that it should read "the Word was A GOD" in John chapter 1, the only problem is that in ancient greek language there is no word for "a" so they add "a", the only problem is that in the first chapter of John the greek word for God (theos) is used 6 or 7 times, but they insert "a" only when talking about Jesus. this is inconsistent translating and can not be taken as a true translation. others say that Jesus failed, but you just need to read the gospels (mathew, mark, luke or john) and you'll see that Jesus knew all the time what was going to happen to Him

No Jesus is not God.
He is Gods first created being.
Through Jesus as Gods agent all things were created.
How can we say Jesus and the father are one then?
They are on in the sane way as the apostles (12 men) are as one with Jesus, in unity of action and thought to see the same out come

This is often referred to as the Father, the Son and The Holy Spirit, the Holy Trinity which suggests that they are 3 separate things, but really, they are all connected and work as one, which is why I think that not only is Jesus God, but God is Jesus, The Holy Spirit is God, God is the Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit is Jesus, and Jesus is the Holy Spirit. They are all so connected that they are one. It's complicated, I know, but like the Bible says, "I and The Father are One" --Jesus

Jesus is never recorded in the Bible as saying the exact words, “I am God.” That does not mean, however, that He did not proclaim that He is God. Take for example Jesus’ words in John 10:30, “I and the Father are one.” At first glance, this might not seem to be a claim to be God. However, look at the Jews’ reaction to His statement, “We are not stoning you for any of these, replied the Jews, but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God” (John 10:33). The Jews understood Jesus’ statement to be a claim to be God. In the following verses, Jesus never corrects the Jews by saying, “I did not claim to be God.” That indicates Jesus was truly saying He was God by declaring, “I and the Father are one” (John 10:30). John 8:58 is another example. Jesus declared, "I tell you the truth, before Abraham was born, I am!" Again, in response, the Jews take up stones in an attempt to stone Jesus (John 8:59). Why would the Jews want to stone Jesus if He hadn’t said something they believed to be blasphemous, namely, a claim to be God?
John 1:1 says that “the Word was God.” John 1:14 says that “the Word became flesh.” This clearly indicates that Jesus is God in the flesh. Acts 20:28 tells us, "...Be shepherds of the church of God, which He bought with His own blood." Who bought the church with His own blood? Jesus Christ. Acts 20:28 declares that God purchased the church with His own blood. Therefore, Jesus is God!
Thomas the disciple declared concerning Jesus, “Lord and my God” (John 20:28). Jesus does not correct him. Titus 2:13 encourages us to wait for the coming of our God and Savior - Jesus Christ (see also 2 Peter 1:1). In Hebrews 1:8, the Father declares of Jesus, "But about the Son He says, "Your throne, O God, will last for ever and ever, and righteousness will be the scepter of your kingdom."
In Revelation, an angel instructed the Apostle John to only worship God (Revelation 19:10). Several times in Scripture Jesus receives worship (Matthew 2:11; 14:33; 28:9,17; Luke 24:52; John 9:38). He never rebukes people for worshiping Him. If Jesus were not God, He would have told people to not worship Him, just as the angel in Revelation had. There are many other verses and passages of Scripture that argue for Jesus’ deity.
The most important reason that Jesus has to be God is that if He is not God, His death would not have been sufficient to pay the penalty for the sins of the whole world (1 John 2:2). Only God could pay such an infinite penalty. Only God could take on the sins of the world (2 Corinthians 5:21), die, and be resurrected - proving His victory over sin and death

Well that depends.
In the Gospel According to Mark: no, he is a man
Matthew, Luke: he is a man-god
John: he's a full fledged god.
(Note: the gospels are "according to"...not actually written by the people whose names have been historically attached to the traditional 4 gospels.)
As the story of "Jesus" changed through the oral traditions, he gradually evolved from a man to the god of all creation. Note that there are very few (if any) historical references to a man called Jesus. One would think that someone who was truly a god or demigod, who was performing miracles would have come to the attention of the Romans, and they would have mentioned him,as they were obsessive about documenting their history.

Jesus could be God, because your Bible tells you that Satan is the God of this world. 2 Cor.4:4
That same Bible tells you that this God Satan has deceived the whole world in Rev.12:9.
If you can handle the truth you can read how Satan pulled this off at this web site.

May Holy Spirit that inspired the prophets and apostles to write to us bless your understanding in your search for truth.

God revealed Himself in three persons. The Father in creation and in rescuing the nation of Israel from the Egyptians, the Son in coming to earth as a man and living a sinless life and suffering for all the sins of man, then raising from the dead having defeated death and hell, and ascended to the throne, and the Holy Spirit Who dwells within us and guides us today. Each is fully God. The best way I can explain it is to say that God exists outside of time, so He can be with you your entire life, working to make you aware of His will, guiding you and in fellowship with you, but He can also be with me individually, working to make me aware of His will, guiding me and in fellowship with me as if I were the only one to have fellowship with. He can also be sitting on the throne in heaven in relationship with the saints and angels who are involved in worship.
Our finite minds have trouble grasping the concept of an infinite being. This doesn't mean He is a God of confusion, it just means He is bigger than our minds can conceive.
