Is Jesus the only god there is, or is he the king of other gods and goddesses?

Question

For example, Zeus is like Jesus, but he's the king of other gods and goddesses like Poseidon, Aphrodite and Hermes.

Is Jesus the king of other gods and goddesses like Zeus is?

Answer 1

there is only one God
his name is Jesus

Isa 45:5 I am the LORD, and there is none else, there is no God beside me:

Isa 45:21 Tell ye, and bring them near; yea, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this from ancient time? who hath told it from that time? have not I the LORD? and there is no God else beside me; a just God and a Savior; there is none beside me.

Hos 13:4 Yet I am the LORD thy God from the land of Egypt, and thou shalt know no god but me: for there is no savior beside me.

Luk 1:47 And my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Savior.

Luk 2:11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Savior, which is Christ the Lord.

Jesus is God
God came to earth as the Christ as defined anointed flesh

Answer 2

God exists in three persons - the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit. This doctrine is know as the Trinity. Jesus is the Son.

Jesus isn't the king of other gods or goddesses, nor does he rule over any gods or goddesses. Jesus, in unity with the Father and the Holy Spirit, is the only God.

Answer 3

Interesting point. Many believe that Jesus story is the retelling of an older story, which is actually Greek. Not all Ancient Greeks believed in a multiple god existence. Mostly that belief is astrological. It is a direct telling and history of the stars and the planet's journey, or at least how they viewed it from the planet. To explain the rotation of the stars and the yearly cycle.

The one god, or more specific Sun God, which foretells or some believe tells the story of Jesus was Dionysus in Greek culture. The stories are quite identical if you read them. The ancient Greeks did adapt to Christianity over time but some believe these stories to be the one in the same.

Answer 4

Jesus is part of the Triune Godhead. He is the Son of God. There is no other God than He. Not Allah, Not Confucious, Not Buddha, Not a Catholic Saint, Not Mary, Not Vishnu...Jesus Christ alone. The Bible is very clear about this:

Acts 10:36-37
John 20:31
John 5:23
Philippians 2:9-10
1 John 2:22-23
1 John 5:1,5
John 8:24

Answer 5

In my belief system:

All Gods/Goddesses-- including the Christian trinity-- are just different ways that people imagine their Higher Power.


All the images man has ever written down or drawn or sculpted or named or made up oral stories about-- from ancient mythology to the Bible-- all about the same Great Spirit. People just view/relate to the Great Spirit differently, have different ideas of what the Great Spirit is and what it wants and how it relates to us, but it is all the same Creator we are reaching out to.

And I don't believe the Creator really cares which name we use for it or which image we envision for it or which way we worship it.

Answer 6

Jesus is the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords.

Any other god is false. Many worship false gods or idols but they can not hear their prayers, they have no ears to hear. They can not speak, for they don't have a mind or tongue for speech.

Jesus answered, "I am the way the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father, except through me." John 14:6

Answer 7

God is the only God there is. Jesus is the Son of God.

Answer 8

There is no Zeus, sorry to pop your bubble but...

M'r:12:32: And the scribe said unto him, Well, Master, thou hast said the truth: for there is one God; and there is none other but he:
Ro:3:30: Seeing it is one God, which shall justify the circumcision by faith, and uncircumcision through faith.
1Co:8:6: But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
Eph:4:6: One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through all, and in you all.
1Tm:2:5: For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
Jas:2:19: Thou believest that there is one God; thou doest well: the devils also believe, and tremble.

Answer 9

Many non-Muslims have come to incorrectly believe that Allah is the ‘God of Muslims’ – A deity somehow different from the God of the other faiths. It should be emphasized that the term “Allah” has no implied meaning at all of an Arabian god, a Moon god or even a Muslim god. Muslims are not claiming any exclusiveness when they say "Allah". However Allah is simply the Arabic Name of the one Almighty God; the same name by which Arabic-speaking Jews and Christians, refer to God. The Allah comes from the term ‘al-ilaah’. Al is the definite article in Arabic, equivalent to ‘the’ in English, while ilaah means ‘a deity or god’. So Allah means The God. This is beautifully articulated in the first pillar of Islam which is to believe that God is One, in Arabic it would be, "La ilaha illallah" meaning "There is no god but God"




One God
[21:21] Have they found gods on earth who can create?

[21:22] If there were in them (the heavens and the earth) other gods beside GOD, there would have been chaos. Glory be to GOD; the Lord with absolute authority. He is high above their claims.

Never Question God's Wisdom
[21:23] He is never to be asked about anything He does, while all others are questioned.

[21:24] Have they found other gods beside Him? Say, "Show me your proof. This is the message to my generation, consummating all previous messages." Indeed, most of them do not recognize the truth; this is why they are so hostile.

One God/One Message/One Religion
[21:25] We did not send any messenger before you except with the inspiration: "There is no god except Me; you shall worship Me alone."

[21:26] Yet, they said, "The Most Gracious has begotten a son!" Glory be to Him. All (messengers) are (His) honored servants.

[21:27] They never speak on their own, and they strictly follow His commands.

The Myth of Intercession
[21:28] He knows their future and their past. They do not intercede, except for those already accepted by Him, and they are worried about their own necks.

[21:29] If any of them claims to be a god beside Him, we requite him with Hell; we thus requite the wicked.



15. Jesus never claimed to be GOD

And behold! God will say: "O Jesus the son of Mary! Did you say unto men, 'worship me and my mother as gods in derogation of God?'" He will say: "Glory to you. Never could I say what I had no right (to say). Had I said such a thing, You would indeed have known it. You know what is in my heart, though I know not what is in Yours. For you know in full what is hidden. The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 5, Verse 116

They do blaspheme who say "God is the Christ the son of Mary." But Christ said "O Children of Israel! Worship God, (who is) my Lord and your Lord." Whosoever joins other gods with God - God will forbid him the Garden, and the fire will be his abode... They do blaspheme who say "God is one of three in a Trinity". For there is no god except One God. If they desist not from their word (of blasphemy), verily a grievous penalty will befall the blasphemers among them." The Holy Qur'an, Chapter 5, Verses 72-73.

Answer 10

According to Christianity, he is the one person of the true God.
According to Mormonism, he is one god out of the three gods of the trinity. Furthermore, there are supposed to be many more other Gods as well.
