Christians, Do u believe Jesus is the son of God or God himself?

Answer 1

‘But isn’t Jesus called a god in the Bible?’ someone may ask. This is true. Yet Satan is also called a god. (2 Corinthians 4:4) At John 1:1, which refers to Jesus as “the Word,” some Bible translations say: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” But notice, verse 2 says that the Word was “in the beginning with God.” And while men have seen Jesus, verse 18 says that “no man hath seen God at any time.” (Authorized or King James Version) So we find that some translations of verse 1 give the correct idea of the original language when they read: “The Word was with God, and the Word was divine,” or was “a god,” that is, the Word was a powerful godlike one. (An American Translation) Clearly, Jesus is not Almighty God. In fact, Jesus spoke of his Father as “my God” and as “the only true God.”

Did Jesus ever say that he was God? No, he never did. Rather, in the Bible he is called “God’s Son.” And he said: “The Father is greater than I am.” Also, Jesus explained that there were some things that neither he nor the angels knew but that only God knew. (Mark 13:32) Further, on one occasion Jesus prayed to God, saying: “Let, not my will, but yours take place.” (Luke 22:42) If Jesus were the Almighty God, he would not have prayed to himself, would he? In fact, following Jesus’ death, the Scripture says: “This Jesus God resurrected.” (Acts 2:32) Thus the Almighty God and Jesus are clearly two separate persons. Even after his death and resurrection and ascension to heaven, Jesus was still not equal to his Father.


As for the “Holy Spirit,” the so-called third Person of the Trinity, this is not a person but God’s active force. John the Baptizer said that Jesus would baptize with holy spirit, even as John had been baptizing with water. Hence, in the same way that water is not a person, holy spirit is not a person. (Matthew 3:11) What John foretold was fulfilled when, following the death and resurrection of Jesus, holy spirit was poured out on his followers gathered in Jerusalem. The Bible says: “They all became filled with holy spirit.” (Acts 2:4) Were they “filled” with a person? No, but they were filled with God’s active force. Thus the facts make clear that the Trinity is not a Bible teaching. Actually, long before Jesus walked the earth gods were worshiped in groups of three, or trinities, in places such as ancient Egypt and Babylon.

Answer 2

Christians generally believe that Jesus is both the Son of God as well as God himself. This is due to the belief in the Trinity.

This belief is still controversial for some, but most Christians believe in the Trinity (God, Jesus and Holy Spirit as three in one), so they believe that Jesus can be both a son and a father at the same time.

There are also examples of this in other religions, so Christianity is not unique in this belief.

Answer 3

Jesus is the Son of God. Jehovah transferred the life of his Son in heaven, Michael the Archangel the first creation of God, his first angelic son and the only creation he created entirely by himself as after him he used Michael as his Master Worker to bring everything else into existence, into the womb of Mary to be born as a perfect human able to pay the ransom for the perfect human life that Adam forfeited when he disobeyed God.

Answer 4

I believe the scripture is 1 Timothy 3:16.

Some of it may be paraphrased as it has been a while since I have done Bible Quizzing.

"And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory."

So to answer, Jesus was God manifested in flesh.

If you look back in Jewish customs, you will find that He was called the Son of God (and also the Son of Man) because the traditions of naming the child and the mother not being able to touch the baby for so many days, yada yada.

Answer 5

Both. Jesus (God John 1)was and is the Son of God (the Father).

Answer 6

Jesus is God's son. Jehovah is God Almighty , the father of Jesus, the first born son.
Jesus Distinguished From God

TIME and again, Jesus showed that he was a creature separate from God and that he, Jesus, had a God above him, a God whom he worshiped, a God whom he called "Father." In prayer to God, that is, the Father, Jesus said, "You, the only true God." (John 17:3) At John 20:17 he said to Mary Magdalene: "I am ascending to my Father and your Father, to my God and your God." (RS, Catholic edition) At 2 Corinthians 1:3 the apostle Paul confirms this relationship: "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ." Since Jesus had a God, his Father, he could not at the same time be that God.

16 “For God loved the world so much that he gave his only-begotten Son, in order that everyone exercising faith in him might not be destroyed but have everlasting life. 17 For God sent forth his Son into the world, not for him to judge the world, but for the world to be saved through him. 18 He that exercises faith in him is not to be judged. He that does not exercise faith has been judged already, because he has not exercised faith in the name of the only-begotten Son of God.

Answer 7

some believe He is the son of God, some believe He is both the son and God, trinity God the Father, God the Son, and the Holy Spirit, its slightly difficult to understand

Son of God of course.

Jesus sits at the right hand of God

The Divine Trinity -- The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit

Answer 9

He is both the Son of God and God Himself. The Bible says so.

Answer 10

to answer the question you have to understand the trinity.
God has three parts, God the father, God the son, and God the holy spirit. Jesus was God the son. he was fully God. and he was the part of God that came down to earth to live as a human and die to cover the sins of those that put their faith in him.
