Where does it say that jesus is god in the bible? i think he says he's not?

Question

why do people call jesus god.

Answer 1

How can you be sure of ANYTHING that Yehoshua ibn Yosef al Nazareth (Jesus) said? It's all a game of operator.. There is NOT ONE piece of literature attributed to him.. NOT ONE writer of the era that Yehoshua was alive wrote ANYTHING about him..

Answer 2

In the Bible it states that Jesus is the Son of God.. but the Son and the Father and the Holy Ghost is one and the same... so it pretty much means that Jesus is God

Answer 3

Yes, it does say Jesus is God, and it also says the Holy Spirit is God. you need to get a Bible and good Bible reference and start studying them out. People can help you, but you do better when you study for yourself. Lets touch on the one you asked about, IS JESUS GOD??? I will give you only a few that refer to that. 1Tim3:16 says that God was made flesh and preached to Jerusalem. Who preached,? Who was the word made flesh, many scriptures on that too. answer JESUS. Then in Titus 2:13, it says that Jesus is our great God and saviour. Well, who is the saviour, who died on the cross for our sins? Again, JESUS. 1 John 5:7 says there are three that bear record in Heaven, The Father,, The Word (jesus is the word made flesh) and the Holy Ghost, and these three are as one. There are so many more. The word trinity itself does not appear in our Bible, but comes from words used back in B iblical times, meaning same thing. So many that tell us of a triune God, three in one. You dont have to get it, but you do have to accept it. Once you understand that all three are God, then it changes how you view all you read. Many dismiss this becaue TRINITY does not appear in the Bible. But, all kinds of things used to describe this triune God are in the Bible. Just begin to study and watch as God turns on the lights for you. amen

Answer 4

Because he is the Son of God and the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit are one and act as one; therefore Jesus is God. He is the physical incarnation of God. He is 100% God as well as being 100% man. This is fundamental to the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Answer 5

Technically Jesus and God are one; refer to the Bible when He says God sent his only son to die on the cross. He made him in his own image. Just like him. They are one in the sense that Jesus was made like him.

Answer 6

John 10:30

Answer 7

Which bible are you referring to? God is God and Jesus is the son of God.

Answer 8

Do you want an honest answer, or just one that affirms the beliefs that you hold already?

This question comes up all of the time on the R&S section. The short answer is, Jesus never denies that he is God either. When people ask him who he is, he simply tells you about himself and lets you draw your own conclusions. When people conclude that he is God, he tells them that they are correct.

If Jesus was NOT God, then why didn't he correct people like Peter or Marry Madgline when they told Jesus to his face that he was God? You would think that that was important.

...Suppose a man does indeed come up to you and does says,

"I am God, worship me."

Would you believe him?
Would you worship him?

The immediate reaction of any decent monotheistic believer
would be to call the person making such a claim an impostor
and a blasphemer. If that is your reaction too, then why
would you demand something from Jesus which you aren't going to accept anyway? Most would declare insane anybody who would make such a statement. Jesus knows about this natural reaction as well as anybody else and saw no reason to make his claims in such a foolish way. But he did make the claim in indirect ways and those are just as clear....

...For example, in the Gospel according to John, (speaking of
eternal life) Jesus says, "I am the resurrection and the life.
He who believes in me will live, even though he dies."
(John 11:25). He makes the offer of eternal life conditional on
faith in his own person. This would be blasphemous for anybody
other than God. This is an incredible claim. Does he give any
evidence for his authority to make such claims? The record
gives many details of what happened at this particular day, but
at the end we read, "When he had said this, Jesus called in a
loud voice, `Lazarus, come out!' The dead mean came out, his
hands and feet wrapped with strips of linen, and a cloth around
his face. Jesus said to them, `Take off the grave clothes and
let him go.'" (John 11:43-44).

When you read the Gospels carefully you will find that
consistently

* Jesus talks like he is God,
* Jesus acts like he is God,
* Jesus gives evidence for claiming this authority rightfully
by performing miraculous signs.

After 3 years with his disciples we read how one of them
asks Jesus and wants to be "shown the Father (God)".

Jesus answered, "Don't you know me, Philip, even after
I have been among you such a long time?
Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father. ...
Believe me when I say that I am in the Father and the
Father is in me; or at least believe on the evidence of the
miracles themselves." (John 14:10-11).

Jesus expected the disciples and the people around him to
recognise his true nature and identity from his words which
are only appropriate for God to speak and from his deeds.
Jesus does give enough proof and then lets you draw your own
conclusions. Everybody could make the claim to be God. And
many have made claims to be (a) god throughout history. Only
the true God can give true evidence for it and if you have
the evidence there is no need for the explicit command to
worship anymore. The statement "I am God" adds nothing of
substance to the question regarding his identity. His real
identity is established by the proof he gives, not by claims
each and everybody can make. After he has given the evidence,
there is no more need for the statement. Those who are open
for the truth will recognise the evidence, those who ignore
the evidence won't be convinced either if he adds this
specific statement you seem to demand from him. And if you
have recognized his true identity, worshiping him is only
proper and will nearly be an "automatic" response....

...In the Gospel according to John, end of chapter 20, and
the Gospel according to Matthew, end of chapter 28, we read
how Jesus receives worship and affims this. Even though he
never demands the worship, he accepts it and confirms it as
proper....

Answer 9

John 1:1 [ The Word Became Flesh ] In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

Genesis 1:26 Then God said, "Let us make human beings in our image, in our likeness,

Emmanuel means with God, Jesus is referred to as the word.

Answer 10

This is a complicated question. The words ascribed to Jesus never make the claim that he is god. The Gospel of John does however and the synopitc texts suggest it in some significant ways.

Answer 11

Jesus said He is the son of God but still part of the trinity.The Father, The Son, and the Holy Spirit.
