Why do christians worship Jesus Christ as their savior?

Question

Doesn't the bible say to honor God only?

isn't it violating God's law?

Answer 1

jesus is the son of god, the right hand of the father, mad of one, the alpha and omega, savior, christ, .... he is one with god and made of god

Answer 2

Jesus Christ is the Son of God. God incarnate, born in the flesh as the perfect sacrifice for the redemption of man's sins. In the Gospel of John (14:6) Jesus tells the disciples "I am the Way, the Truth and the Life. No one comes to My Father except through me." Therefore, we worship Christ as our redeemer and Savior, for as God's Son, and our perfect Sacrificial Lamb, He has created a path for imperfect man to have a path to God.

Answer 3

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.

Answer 4

Jesus is New testomony; Abraham and the different prophets are previous testomony. Jesus became into born centuries after Abraham; he became into in basic terms conventional because of the fact the Messiah, no longer Jesus. people who chosen to stay with the instructions of Jesus have been conventional as Christians; people who've continued to stay with the previous testomony, Abraham and the different prophets interior the previous testomony are working in the direction of Judaism and are conventional as Jewish or Jews. The previous testomony is talked approximately by using the Jews because of the fact the Talmud. Jesus became into born a Jew and became into talked approximately by using his followers as 'Rabbi', meaning he became right into a instructor of the Holy know God.

Answer 5

He is worshiped by humans and angels (Matt 14:33; 28:9; John 9:38; Heb 1:6; Rev 5:8-14; examples where the wrong is stopped: Acts 12:20-23; Rev 19:10). He receives the kind of "service" that is only allowed to God (Rev 22:3f Greek--latreuo; example where wrong is stopped: Matt 4:10). People even pray to Jesus (Acts 7:59f; 2 Cor 12:8; 1 John 5:13-15).

Here are some scriptures showing Jesus' deity:


Phil 2:6: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God

1 Tim 3:16: 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.

Rom 8:9: But ye are not in the flesh, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his.

Col 2:9: For in him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.

Titus 2:13: Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ

Heb 1:8: But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.

John 8:24: I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that 'I AM', ye shall die in your sins. 58: Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, 'I AM'.

Exodus 314: And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

John 10:30: I and my Father are one. 31: Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him. 32: Jesus answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me? 33: The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.

This next one is my favorite:

Acts 20:28: Take heed therefore unto yourselves, and to all the flock, over the which the Holy Ghost hath made you overseers, to feed the church of God, which he hath purchased with his own blood.

Did you notice it was God who had purchased with His own blood? Who was it that shed His blood? It was none other than Jesus, this scripture said it was God. So Jesus is God!!!
