Who is the first person to believe "Jesus is God" ?

Question

This question is for those who believe Jesus is God.

Answer 1

During his preaching, Jesus had never called himself as God or Son-God. Now, look upon those people who consider Jesus as God or Son-God. They are, baselessly, blaming even those people who were present at the spot and knew that Jesus was not God or son-god. In other words, the people with the belief that Jesus is God or Son-god; are far more enemies of Jesus who tried to crucify him.

•The people who say that Jesus is God or Son-God or in his guise, the Lord descended upon earth because of God’s love for humanity. They are, baselessly, blaming Jesus and the Lord of Jesus, the both.
According to Jesus, God, the Holy One; is the Saviour of the Whole mankind. God is capable (be God glorified as God is) to relive off every infliction. None of the human beings is saviour beside God. Jesus, himself is also, not a saviour at all. The people who have chosen him as their saviour__ they have denied the Holy One___ who alone is the saviour of Jesus and whole mankind and the act of choosing Jesus as saviour__ is equal to hate the Holy One___ as it is clearly written in the old Testament:-

“I am the Lord your God. Worship no God but Me. Do not make for yourself images of anything in heavens or on earth or in the water under the earth. Do not bow down to any idol or worship it. Because I am the Lord your God and I tolerate no rivals. I bring punishment on those who hate me, on their descendants, down to third and fourth generation.”
(Exodus 20:1-5)

Now, ponder over the point that whosoever says that Jesus is God___ Holy Spirit is God___ Mary is God; has he not made an idol beside the One God? While nothing is there in the earth and heavens which could be considered in terms of the One God.

Beware please! A father is a father__ a mother is a mother___ and a son is a son__ and they all are the creatures of God. They cannot be considered as God___ as god is their Creator__ and nothing is like the Lord.

Creatures of God are God’s Creatures they can never be considered as God or as the parts of God. Same is the case of Jesus who is a creature and, as such, can not be considered as God or a part of the Creator or the son of Creator.

•Jesus is not a Saviour. He is not capable, even, to save himself from his enemies. How he can be considered “All-Able” to save everyone on the earth. It is the Lord alone__ Who is the All-Able to save every creature of the universe including the mankind__ as the Lord is already saving__ each of them__ without any desolation and defect.

Jesus was born after Adam, Noah, Abraham, Ismael, Isaac, Jacob, David, Solomon, Moses and the numerous other Prophets (peace & blessings of God be upon all of them). If he were the Son-God, then, all of the foregoing Prophets, must have been the believers of Trinity. But the case is not like that at all. None of them was the believer of Trinity, rather, none of them, had, even, heard about the name of Trinity, in their times. Hence, Trinity is nothing else but an invented and artificial concept which has no existence, even, during the time of Jesus. It is, therefore, a rootless concept from all accounts.

Prior to Jesus, the Lord had created Eve, without mother__ and Adam, without mother and father, the both. Afterwards, the Lord created Jesus without father. So the creation of Jesus, without father, is the third instance of the Lord’s all-encompassing creativity___ which is free from all the channels or systems of the birth. Instead, all the channels or systems of the birth are subservient to the all-encompassing and unique creativity of the Lord.
The Lord is, therefore, Holy and the Lord must be believed in, as Holy. To ascribe a son unto the Lord__ is a direct assault on the Lord’s Holiness__ which is an unpardonable crime.

since Adam to Noah__ Noah to Abraham__ Abraham to David, David to Moses__ Moses to Jesus and Jesus to Muhammad (peace & blessings of God be upon all of them) all the Prophets were slaves or servants of the Lord. And, in their servant-n-master or slave-n-lord based relationship__ all of them had__ all the qualities of servants & slaves definitely. That is why that all of them stood as servants & slaves of the Lord__ throughout their lives__ and obeyed their Lord in the most positive terms.

In the lines:-

“Honour the Lord, you descendants of Jacob!
Worship the Lord, you people of Israel!”

Jesus is advising the descendants of Jacob and the people of Israel to honour and worship the Holy One. The same thing has been advised in Quran after Torah by the Almighty God to whole mankind. It means that God of Moses, Jesus and Muhammad (peace and blessings of God be upon each of them) is One, the Holy One. Who alone, is to be honoured and worshipped ___ by the people of Jesus__ by the people__ of Muhammad__ and by the whole mankind.
Like Jesus, Mary and Moses every Prophet and every righteous person has praised__ honoured__ and worshipped the Lord, alone. So, the followers of all the Scriptures, should naturally praise__ honour__and worship the Lord alone as that__ and only that__ is the true faith and all of us should keep our Lord alone as our saviour with us here and hereafter.
Torah, Psalms, Gospel and Quran, all the Scriptures are saying that God is One, the Holy One. So whosoever does not believe in One God, he is definitely denying all the Scriptures. Such a person can not be considered as a believer at all.

No Prophet or a righteous-man has ever dared to say that he, himself, should be honoured like God or worshipped like God. Satan, of course, had certainly said to Jesus to worship him in place of God but Jesus had responded in the following way:-

“Go away Satan! The Scripture says: Worship the Lord you God and serve only the Lord.”
(Matthew 4:10)

In the same way, Jesus has responded in his prayer on the cross while uttering the following lines of the Verse No.23:-

“Praise the Lord, you servants of the Lord!
Honour the Lord, you descendants of Jacob!
Worship the Lord, you people of Israel!”

No doubt, it is a matter of simple common-sense that when God is One__ the Lord is One__ the saviour is one__ the Holy and Only One__ then, how his slaves or servants__ can be held as worthy of the honour & service__ which is meant for the Holy One alone. But alas! The people are honouring and serving the slaves and servants__ just like the Lord. Rather, they have chosen them as God & the Lord__ in place of the Holy One. And__ Christians are the pioneers of such ideas. They have straightaway declared Jesus as God & Lord and the Saviour. Rather, they hold Jesus as the sole sovereign of the Day of Judgement, instead of the Lord, the Almighty God, the Holy One.

Answer 2

Weeeeeeeelllll...

OK. If you believe that God made Jesus and that makes Jesus part of God and thus, God - it was before the 1600's. (Paradise Lost - Milton) [This would mean that even angels are God though, and really... isn't it pretty self-centered and a show of low self esteem when you have to make things to make yourself feel above everything else?]

If you believe that God has offspring like we do, and that even though Jesus was created his is separate from his parent - you shouldn't believe that at all. Since Jesus in the bible is referring to his father... I'd take this road.

Answer 3

Yahsua (Jesus) Himself proved He was God in the flesh. Let God be true and everyman a lier. Who ever has denied that he is God has thier part in the lake of FIRE ! In comes FAITH !! God does not force any man to believe what they do not want to believe he gives man a choice. Eternal Life or Hell.

Answer 4

Not sure if he was first, but Jesus told St Thomas to put his finger through His nailprints and put his hand in His side, and Thomas said, "My Lord and my God!"

Before that, Peter said, "You are the Christ, the Son of the Living God!" But that may not be what you asked.

Answer 5

The crowd of Jews listening to Jesus understood he claimed to be God. That's they wanted to stone him for Blasphemy. (John 10:31-33)

And, when Jesus claimed he could forgive sins, the teachers of the law also thought he was committing blasphemy, because only God can forgive sins. (Luke 5:20-22)

Answer 6

It was even in the Old Testament that the prophet foretold that the Son of God will be born.. they are ponting it to Jesus..... but if you really want to know who was the first person who said in the Bible that Jesus is God.....It is Thomas. if you have read the bible....
It was after the resurrection that he wouldn't believe that Jesus resurrected from the dead.... Then Jesus showed himself to Thomas. Thomas said "my Lord, and my God"..... you can read that in the gospel of John (20:28) in the Bible.... post story of Resurrection.....
so it was really Thomas who first said in the Bible that Jesus is God.

Answer 7

It could have been any number of people, since it was obvious from Jesus' mostly Jewish audience that by the things He did and said, He was in fact laying claim to the fact that He is God. Check out the links below.

Answer 8

In the book of Genesis, God is talking,
Let Us make man in Our image.

God the Father
God the Son
God the Holy Spirit

All three, are one in the same power, but different persons.
They have the same agreement, (the Bible Gods Holy word).
You talk to one, the three are hearing you.
You can not have one with out the other.

Answer 9

Verdadeiro Homem.
Verdadeiro Deus,

Jesus is god.

Answer 10

Athanasius, 325 AD

Answer 11

Timeout!
Eternal Life or Hell. ??? Never was that the choice...
Rather, Eternal LIFE or eternal DEATH, which is the
opposite of Life... Eccl 9:5
We can choose life or death... Recall Adam/Eve?
Remember what the outcome was for disobedience?
DEATH!
GOD never said it would be a fiery HELL... Oops,
did He forget to mention that? When did God 'create' hell?
Remember, it was SATAN who said to Eve that they
WOULDN'T DIE. (People still believe that lie!) We do die!

Hell is merely the grave,which is a reality now, but
hell/grave/pit will be cast into the symbolic LAKE of FIRE,
which means the second death. No more death, no more graves... simple
(see any translation)
