Is Jesus God or just a good person?

Question

Was he actually "deity"? Was he a liar? Or was he actually God? What is the proof?

Answer 1

Jesus is God's son.
He was not a liar
And the proof is the bible, we also base time on Jesus you know BC and AD
BC-Before Christ (Jesus)
AD-After Death

Answer 2

There are "3" that are united as "one" in heaven who rule over the earth. Jesus said himself there is only ONE good (person) and HE is only God. pratcically denying himself to be Good.

However Jesus is called the son of God, but he is also called Emmanuel and Immanuel "god with us". Issaiah said he will be called Almighty God. So Jesus is the God of Abraham. but not necessarily His own FATHER.

so! knowing the bible talks about the Godhead in at least 3 different places, i would conclude that Jesus is a god as part of whole Godhead. the difference betweent the trinity and the godhead falls on the verses found in revelation which say Jesus will call us his son and He will be our God and have a right to sit upon the throne of God Just as He sits on His(our) Fathers' throne
See rev 3:21, 21:7

Answer 3

Jesus was not Deity - HOWEVER - he was more than just a good man. Just as Adam was created directly by the hand of God, so Jesus was created - however - Jesus was created in the womb of a virgin.., the reason was for a sign to the Jews concerning the Messiah to come.

The Deity (GOD) lived in Jesus - as the Holy Spirit descended on Jesus upon his baptism (being submersed and emerging from the water) in a light that resembled a dove.

The Jews know the signs for the Messiah as promised in the Torah - and these signs do not include a human god. This is why the Jews reject Jesus as the Messiah to this day, because they hear the Trinity people spouting off that this Jesus is God. Jews are not going to ever recognize a human god as messiah.

Moses, when he spoke of Jesus, told the people to expect a prophet like himself... and Moses not at any point claimed to be God. Moses was a go between, a mediator between God and mankind - Just as the Apostle Paul said of Jesus that he is the only Mediator between God and men today.

So Jesus was the Son of God - and Son of Man. He was not God, no more than Adam was. Paul also described Jesus as the 2nd Adam. For where death came though the sin of Adam, the 2nd Adam (Jesus) came to bring eternal life, to restore what was lost through the 1st Adam.

Jesus was a Prophet as per what Moses said. He was God with us in respect to what the Apostle John (author of the Gospel of John) recorded. Jesus said plainly that he and the Father are one. He also said that God was in him. It takes not scientist to figure out that God was in Jesus, and Jesus in him, making them knit together so to speak - they are in that respect ONE. Though does not make him God.

Jesus went on to say in his prayer to God, that those who believe in Jesus are one on Jesus and both they and he (Jesus) would be one in God. Does this now make the believers as God too? No! It makes them knit with Jesus, and knitted with God THROUGH God's Holy Spirit.

And finally - God is Spirit! God is Holy! God is the Holy Spirit. Mock, accept or whatever - this is the truth and finality of the matter concerning the Godhead. Jesus is Lord.., and at the end when the last enemy is put under foot, the Apostle Paul said that Jesus will hand all power and authority that was given him, back to the Father (God) and Jesus would then be as his brothers.., just a common man. If Jesus were God, he could not relinquish this power to anyone but himself and that makes no sense at all. So Jesus in not God - but his mission and his purpose makes him the most important man ever in the history of this planet.

Answer 4

JESUS IS GOD! Anyone who denies that is a liar. You want to know how I know this? Well then, let me tell you....

If you are a true Christian, you have reasurrance of where your soul will go when you die. 2007 years ago, God sent his one and only son (Jesus Christ) to be born as a baby in a yucky, mucky stable for YOU! And he died by crucifixion (nailed to a wooden cross by the palms and feet and left to hang there till you die) for YOU! After the 3rd day from His death Jesus came to life and now reigns in Heaven on the right hand of God Almighty. His precious blood will wash away your sins forever under one condition. He only asks that you believe that He is God's son and ask Him for forgiveness for your wrongdoing. Once you have done this sincerely, and have made the choice to live for Him, you can now be confident that when you die you will live with Jesus in Heaven forever and ever. Those who reject this wonderful gift shall hear these words spoken to them on the day of the Great White Throne Judgment:
"Depart from Me, ye cursed, into the everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels!"
Then you will be cast into the Lake of Fire. You will live there, night unto day unto night for eternity, with no rest nor water.
Jesus' final words to His followers before He ascended into Heaven were "Behold, I am coming soon."
And He is!
Any day now He will come down from the clouds "with the voice of an archangel and the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ shall rise first." That means that all the people who trusted in Christ and died will rise again to be with their Lord. When they have, all of us believers who are alive and remain on Earth will be caught up together with Him in the clouds to meet Jesus in the air. Those who have rejected Him will go through a terrible 7-year tribulation filled with terror, God's judgement and death.
THIS IS NO JOKE!!!!
Please don't wait to recieve this gift; JESUS IS COMING SOON!

Now do you still think Jesus was just a man?

Answer 5

God

Answer 6

He is part of the trinity that is God, The Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. It is thru belief in Jesus that we are recognized as we have realized God's earthly incarnation, what we know or don't know of his life and earthly death and resurection. There are many different beliefs of who he represented in life but it will be between you and God as to what the reality is in the outcome.

Answer 7

Jesus is the son of God and unlike God, Jesus assumed the human form. From all accounts, while in human form, Jesus was quite a good person!

Answer 8

Ohhhh...proof! what a word that is!

We spend so much of our lives wanting to be sure...and when we are certain...we spend the rest of our lives trying to remember what it was to be innocent!!!!

Jesus was a prophet who brought to us messages that we should always consider and debate. The moral and ethical standards that were set for us by Jesus are ones that we adhere to whether we like to admit to it or not!!!

Yes Jesus was a good person...but no one of us can take his goodness and make it ours!....to praise the son of Our Lord is to give ourselves in worship....it does nothing to remove the stain of our sin!

Answer 9

Jesus is good person. Prophet like the other prophets. And we must believe all of them.

The proof...
God don't be in human body...! it's impossible!!!!
God is different from each thing.
God is strong and does not need to show in human body.( If he was human, he is not God).So he controls the universe.

Answer 10

I believe that Jesus should be the most respected prophet. Many of us revere him as such. I believe he NEVER said anything to the nature of being God's only begotten son. I think those verses are lies made by the pioneers of the "Christian" church. I also think that Paul may be the culprit. All too often I see in his writings connotations of this type. You may want to read the gospel of Barnabas.

Answer 11

Yes. NO. YES. THE HOLY BIBLE. Jesus is God. He is of what is called the Holy Trinity. Three persons in one. God the Father (Jesus's Father) God the Son (Jesus) and Gos the Holy Ghost (The Spirit) This proof is beheld in the Holy Bible. If that doesn't bring you to love Jesus, you will be cast into EVERLASTING fiery Hell for ETERNITY.
