The Biblical Basis for the Nicene Creed Pt. 1

I begin a series where I provide the biblical basis for the Nicene Creed in order to highlight the Creed’s fidelity to what the God-breathed Scriptures teach concerning the nature of God, salvation, end times etc. I will let the passages speak for themselves for the most part, and

The Christian Shema: What About the Holy Spirit?

In the previous segment (/2019/07/04/the-christian-shema-confessing-jesus-as-yahweh-god-the-son/), I had discussed the following text, “And the Lord shall be king over all the earth: in that day there shall be one Lord, and his name one (to onoma autou hen),” Zechariah 14:9 To show that Yahweh is said to

The Christian Shema: Confessing Jesus as Yahweh God the Son

The Hebrew Bible exhorts the Israelites to confess that Yahweh is their God, Yahweh alone and that Yahweh is the sole Creator who made and gives life to all creation. I include the English translation of the Greek version (known as the LXX) along with the translation of the Hebrew

JESUS CHRIST: TRUE GOD FROM TRUE GOD

In this post, I am going to argue that the blessed Apostle John identifies Jesus as the true God in his first inspired epistle. Here is the text in question: “And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding, so that we may know

Jesus is the Eternal Father but He is not God the Father!

The following verse is typically misused to refute the doctrine of the Trinity: “For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given, and the government shall be upon his shoulder. And his name shall be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father (Abi Ad), Prince of

Jesus as God in the Gospel of Mark: Addressing a Common Muslim Objection

In this post, I am going to show how Jesus in Mark’s Gospel claims to be God (though not the Father) by ascribing to himself the very functions, titles, and attributes, which the Quran itself confirms belong only to God. I do so because Muslims are fond of arguing

Even More Proof That Jesus is Jehovah God Most High! Pt. 3

I now arrive at the final part of my series (/2019/06/25/even-more-proof-that-jesus-is-jehovah-god-most-high-pt-1-pt-2/). The One Supreme Lord Of All The God-breathed revelation describes Yahweh as the Lord of lords, i.e. the one unrivaled Lord who reigns supreme over all other lords, masters and authorities: “for Yahweh your God

Even More Proof That Jesus is Jehovah God Most High! Pt. 1

In this series of posts (/2019/06/14/jesus-is-the-most-high-god/), I am going to provide further evidence that Jesus is identified as Jehovah Most High. I begin by further explicating the following passage from Hebrews: “At various times in the past and in various different ways, God spoke to our ancestors

Even More Proof That Jesus is Jehovah God Most High! Pt. 2

I proceed from where I left off (/2019/06/25/even-more-proof-that-jesus-is-jehovah-god-most-high-pt-1/). The I AM sayings of Christ Another way in which the NT equates Christ with Yahweh God is through our Lord’s use of the phrase “I AM [He],” in Greek ego eimi. All throughout the Hebrew Bible, particularly

The Only True God and the Deity of Christ – Why Translations Matter Pt. 2b

I continue from where I previously left off (/2019/06/21/the-only-true-god-and-the-deity-of-christ-why-translations-matter-pt-2a/). John isn’t the only inspired writer to identify Christ as the Creator and Sustainer of all creation: “yet for us there is one God, the Father, from whom are all things and for whom we exist, and
