Who is the savior? Jesus or God?

Question

In Isaiah we read that the savior is the LORD. In the NWT version it says Jehovah where the KJV reads LORD in Isaiah.

Isaiah 43:11 I, even I, am the LORD; and beside me there is no saviour.

The New Testament makes it clear Jesus is our savior. Now if God Himself said there is no savior besides Him and the New Testament says Jesus is the savior there are only two choices.
1) Jesus is God
2) The Bible is wrong.

Just one verse of many where Jesus is called savior.

2Peter 3:18 But grow in grace, and in the knowledge of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. To him be glory both now and for ever. Amen.

Answer 1

Jesus is God, our Lord and Savior.

JWs had to change the Bible to make it look they are right

Answer 2

Jesus Christ

Answer 3

The Saviour is the son of God,Jesus Christ.

Answer 4

Yes, Jesus is God, the great I AM, and among the earthly gods, there is no other. But it is only the Gift of God in giving His son, before the foundation of the world was set, that we are saved.

That is the gift of grace, the unmerited gift of our God, Jesus. You see, in the O.T. they prayed to the Lord God, that was Jesus our creator. When the Lord became a man, He introduced to us another personality, the Father and the Holy Spirit. They, all three, are working together as one person for our salvation.

Shalom, peace in Jesus, Ben Yeshua

Answer 5

I don't buy into Isaiah of the NT as they are fabrications of political design and not tailored to reality or the individual .
In religious circles pat answers are often cop outs eludeing the point and falling to give good insight that could be helping . this requires personal focus by the person involved or a friendly counsel most often . If you have to go to saturn for your perspective on this planet you are usually lost.

Answer 9

The Bible does not limit the term “savior” to the Most High. In the past, men whom God used in freeing his people Israel from oppression were called saviors. We read: “Jehovah raised a savior up for the sons of Israel that he might save them, Othniel the son of Kenaz, the younger brother of Caleb.” (Judg. 3:9) Then again we are told: “The sons of Israel began to call to Jehovah for aid. So Jehovah raised up for them a savior, Ehud.” Judg. 3:15.

Note that Othniel and Ehud were raised up by Jehovah God as saviors. They were merely the agents through whom the great Savior, God, brought about liberation from enemy oppression. Othniel, Ehud and others like them did not proclaim themselves to be saviors. They acknowledged the One who was using them as being their Savior and God. David, who was often involved in saving the Israelites from their enemies, said: “My God is my rock. I shall take refuge in him, my shield and my horn of salvation, my secure height, and my place for flight, my Savior; from violence you save me.” 2 Sam. 22:3.

But what about Jesus Christ? He, too, cannot be spoken of as being a Savior besides Jehovah, that is, as a rival of his Father. The Scriptures clearly establish that Jesus’ role as Savior was assigned to him by his Father. The Christian apostle John wrote: “We ourselves have beheld and are bearing witness that the Father has sent forth his Son as Savior of the world.” (1 John 4:14) Aged Simeon, on seeing the babe Jesus at the temple, exclaimed: “Now, Sovereign Lord, you are letting your slave go free in peace according to your declaration; because my eyes have seen your means of saving.” Luke 2:29, 30.

At Isaiah 43:11 God even says: “Besides me there is no savior.” Since Jesus is also referred to as Savior, are God and Jesus the same, as you reason? Not at all. Titus 1:3, 4 speaks of “God our Savior,” and then of both “God the Father and Christ Jesus our Savior.” So, both persons are saviors. Jude 25 shows the relationship, saying: “God, our Savior through Jesus Christ our Lord.”

Prejudice for the NWT has no merit.

Answer 10

Father, Son and Holy Spirit One God!
