If you recognize Jesus as God Almighty, then you have SEEN the true Son. I don't want you to believe on a fake Jesus, for there are many. This is why I tell you that Jesus is God Almighty. The Bible plainly teaches that Jesus is the manifestation of the Godhead (i.e., Trinity) to humanity. 1st Timothy 3:16 says, “...God was manifest in the flesh...”
I once yelled out the window of our church bus, “Jesus is God!” to a Jehovah's Witness walking down the street. One of the bus kids at the back of the bus shouted up front... “Brother Dave, he told you to go to Hell!” That's odd, I thought Jehovah's Witness didn't believe in Hell! Does it OFFEND you my friend to hear that Jesus is God?
Jesus is the sweetest name I know,And He’s just the same as His lovely Name,And that’s the reason why I love Him so;Oh, Jesus is the sweetest name I know.
There is no name in earth or Heav’n above,That we should give such honor and such loveAs the blessèd Name, let us all acclaim,That wondrous, glorious Name of Jesus.
JESUS IS GOD, ALMIGHTY GOD!!! The deity of Jesus Christ is the most denied doctrine in this world by unbelievers. They vehemently hate the very idea that Jesus was born upon the earth as the Word of God incarnate (in the flesh). Literally, the Godhead became incarnate and dwelt among us. John 1:1-2 and 14, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. ...And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.”
The word “Godhead” is found in Acts 17:29, Romans 1:20 and Colossians 2:9 in the King James Bible. All of the modern corrupt Bible revisions completely remove this vital word: “Godhead.” Satan wants to deceive you concerning the Godhead. The word “Trinity” may not be in the Bible, but the word “Godhead” most certainly is. Why would anyone remove this word from the Bible? It's because the Devil wants to deceive you, to blind you from seeing Jesus as He really is. Colossians 2:9 says, “...For in him [Jesus] dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.”
Only God Is Entitled To Receive WORSHIP, and Jesus Received Worship
Only Jesus accepted the worship of others (Matthew 8:2). Only God Almighty is entitled to receive worship. The Bible teaches that God will NOT share His glory with another (Isaiah 42:8). If Jesus weren't Almighty God, then He couldn't have received the worship of so many people (Matthew 9:18; 14:33; 15:25; 18:26; 20:20; 28:9). Jesus gladly received worship from people, as God Almighty is entitled to. Jesus is Almighty God!
All modern corrupt Bible versions remove every mention of the word “worship” concerning the Lord Jesus Christ, changing the word “worship” to a mere 'bowed' or 'knelt.' It is deception of the worst kind. Satan tried to take away the Holy Bible from men, but failed. Despite wicked kings gathering all the Bibles they could find and then burning them, the inspired eternal Words of God live on! So then Satan tried to cause men to doubt the Holy Bible (as he did to Eve in the Garden of Eden), and this time he succeeded. Satan has been changing the Holy Bible since 1881 (the year Brooke Westcott and Fenton Hort published their diabolic work: The New Testament In The Original Greek), deceive the world again and again. Sadly, most people have been woefully deceived by the Devil. The New International Version is dangerous, as are all the other modern perversions of the Scriptures. Only the King James Bible is 100% trustworthy in English. All of the modern PERversions attack Jesus' deity!
Jehovah's Witnesses errantly claim that Jesus is “a god,” but not God Almighty. Well, you show a Jehovah's Witness Revelation 1:8 where Jesus Himself proclaims to be: “THE ALMIGHTY”—“I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.” Amen!
Kindly, Martin Luther King Jr. denied Christ's deity in his writings. Yet people foolishly called him “reverend.” I fear Martin Luther King Jr. is burning in the fires of Hell forever for rejecting Christ. John 8:24, “I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I AM he, ye shall die in your sins.” Bible corrupters and unsaved heretics' Westcott and Hort denied the deity of Christ. These two reprobates are the fathers of nearly every modern-day PERversion of the Word of God—the most popular being the New International Version (NIV). Thomas Jefferson, Benjamin Franklin and most of our founding fathers denied the deity of Jesus Christ; but they were good men, as far as good men go.
Jesus received WORSHIP that only God is entitled to, because He is God. Matthew 8:2, “And, behold, there came a leper and worshipped him, saying, Lord, if thou wilt, thou canst make me clean.” If Jesus were less than almighty God, it would be the sin of idolatry to worship Jesus as people did, and I do! The Holy Bible warns that God will NOT share His glory nor praise with another. Isaiah 42:8 says, “I am the LORD: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images.”
Jesus readily accepted praise because He is Almighty God. Please note that the evil men behind modern revisions of the Bible have replaced every mention of the proper word 'WORSHIP' with the ambiguous words 'BOWED' or 'KNELT.' But you can kneel before a king without worshipping him. You can bow before one's fiancee in a marriage proposal, but that doesn't mean you are worshipping her. Do you see how the Devil has deceived people with counterfeit Bibles? Instead, the Devil has given them a corrupt revision that diminishes and weakens the glory due to the precious Lord Jesus Christ, Who came to earth 2,000 years ago as GOD IN THE FLESH? 1st Timothy 3:16 says, “...God was manifest in the flesh...”
Anyone who denies the deity of Jesus Christ is NOT saved, and does not know the true God of the Bible. There is no other God besides the God of true Israel (which doesn't exist today). I'm not talking about the Zionist/Marxist criminals who've hijacked the nation of Israel and the United States. I'm talking about the God of true Israel. Only born-again Jews and Gentiles are God's chosen people (Galatians 3:26-29).
To clarify, I was saved at age 13. I did not learn that Jesus was God until 5 years later at Bible College. But when I learned all about Jesus' deity, I was like a child in a candy store, and I gobbled it all up in joy. The indwelling Holy Spirit confirmed with my spirit, that I was being taught the truth about who Jesus really is. So you don't have to be a theologian to get saved, but if you are saved, you will embrace these truths over time. Can a man be saved who denies the Virgin Birth of Christ?; a man who is saved WILL believe the Virgin Birth of Christ!
Jesus Forgave Men's Sin As Only God Can Do
Jesus forgave sin as only God can do. Wicked Catholic priests and evil Lutheran ministers sinfully claim the power to forgive people's sins. You'll burn in Hell if you trust men to forgive your sins. You'd better seek forgiveness from the God-man—JESUS CHRIST—Who bore the penalty for our sins on the cruel cross of Calvary, and has the nail-scared hands and feet. Only through Jesus' precious name can anyone's sins be forgiven, for it was Christ Who died for OUR SINS. Even the wicked Pharisees who sought to kill Jesus weren't so wicked as to think that they could forgive men's sins. Mark 2:7, “Why doth this man thus speak blasphemies? who can forgive sins but God only?”
As the Bible says, only God can forgive sins, and Jesus is God!!! In Matthew 9:2-3 we read that Jesus mercifully forgave a man's sins and healed him of a horrible disability:
Matthew 9:2-3, “And, behold, they brought to him a man sick of the palsy, lying on a bed: and Jesus seeing their faith said unto the sick of the palsy; Son, be of good cheer; thy sins be forgiven thee. And, behold, certain of the scribes said within themselves, This man blasphemeth.”
Notice that the unbelieving Scribes accused the Lord of blasphemy for claiming the power to forgive men's sins. Ah, but Jesus was God in the flesh and did indeed have all the power of Heaven to forgive sin as only God can. Jesus did NOT give up His deity when He came to the earth; but rather, He humbled Himself as a suffering and obedient servant (Hebrews 5:8; Philippians 2:8). Only Jesus forgave sin in the Bible (Matthew 9:2). Only God Almighty can forgive sin.
And to clarify, Jesus doesn't need to forgive anyone's sins today, because He has already paid for them with His precious blood. Eternal life is a free gift (Romans 5:15; 6:23; Ephesians 2:8-9), which Christ has already paid for! So all you need to do to be saved is simply RECEIVE the gift of forgiveness of sins, by faith alone in Jesus Christ. Galatians 3:26, “For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus.” In hundreds of Bible references we are simply taught to BELIEVE to be saved. John 6:47, “Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.”
So you don't have to “ask” Jesus to forgive your sins, He is already offering eternal life to you for free, by simply believing the record as God His given us in His Word! Christ died on the cross to pay your debt of sin, He was buried, and three days later He miraculously resurrected from the dead. This is the record which you must believe (rely upon, trust) to have eternal life (1st Corinthians 15:1-4). God's record of your sins will be wiped away the very moment you believe, separated from you as far as the east is from the west the Bible says! Psalms 103:12, “As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us.” Do you know how far the east is from the west? Why my friend, they NEVER MEET! You can travel east for the rest of your life, and you will never find west! Likewise, you could go west for a million light-years, but there would never come a time when you would find east. That is how far God has separated every Christian believer from our sins. In other words, they are GONE! What an awesome God and Savior!!!
Jesus Is The I AM (God almighty)
Jesus is the I AM of Exodus 3:14. Exodus 3:14, “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.” The Jews picked up stones to kill Jesus when He made the following claim in John 8:58, “Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.” As you just read, Jesus directly claimed to be the I AM, God almighty!!! Amen and amen!!! Jesus is God Almighty, which He claimed to be in Revelation 1:8, “I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.”
Jesus claimed to be God in John 10:33 says, “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.” Could the Scripture be any clearer? I think not.
“Makest Thyself God...”
1st Timothy 3:16 says, “...God was manifest in the flesh...”
Colossians 2:9 says, “...For in him [Jesus] dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily.”
Jesus is THE WORD Who became FLESH and dwelt among humanity. John 1:1, 14 says, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God ... And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.”
Revelation 19:13 calls Jesus' name: “THE WORD OF GOD”!!! The fundamental Bible truths of the deity of Christ, and of the Godhead (Trinity), are essential to Christianity. This is why Satan is working relentlessly to destroy these doctrines. Movies; such as, The Da Vinci Code attack Jesus' deity. This particular film presents the blasphemous idea that Jesus was merely a man, who had an affair with Mary Magdalene and produced a secret royal bloodline. Other films; such as, Jesus Christ Superstar and The Last Temptation Of Christ, blaspheme his holy character and deity. It is a horrible sin to mock sacred things!
Beware Of The Corrupt Modern Bible Revisions
If you do some research on the modern Bible revisions, you will quickly find that these horrible translators have conveniently changed all of the key passages concerning Jesus' deity and the Godhead. For example: Take a look at 1st Timothy 3:16b in the inspired King James Bible, versus the English Standard Version (ESV) that Bob Jones University sanctions, uses and sells; and kindly take a look at the Easy-To-Read Version (ERV) that Harvest Baptist Church on Guam sanctions, uses and sells; and take a look at several other modern PERversions...
KJB - “God was manifest in the flesh”
ESV - “He was manifested in the flesh”
ERV - “Christ was shown to us in human form”
NRSV - “He was revealed in flesh”
NIV - “He appeared in the flesh”
RSV - “He was manifested in the flesh”
TLB - “Christ, who came to earth as a man”
NCV - “He was shown to us in a human body”
NLT - “Christ was revealed in a human body”
TLV - “He was revealed in the flesh”
HCSB - “He was manifested in the flesh”
CEB - “he was revealed as a human”
MSG - “He appeared in a human body”
VOICE - “He was revealed in the flesh”
Where is God? Where is God? I said where is God? They removed Him! Why do all these modern Bible revisions remove (corrupt) this important key reference to Jesus being God? The answer is obvious if you understand that salvation centers around Jesus being the only begotten (biological) Son of God (John 20:31). Jesus was 100% a mortal man, but He was more, He was also 100% divine God in the flesh! That cannot be said of ANY other human being in history. Unsaved liberals, atheists and communists hate Jesus (John 7:7; 15:19), so they do everything in their power to malign, discredit and if they could, destroy Him! The world crucified Jesus the first time, but they won't get a second chance! Do you love dear friend? I do! I sure hope Jesus is precious to you too, our great God and Savior!!!
