Is Jesus Christ God?



According to my Bible, YES! Christ is the Creator.

Yesterday was reading in Luke 8:38,39 which says, "Now the man out of whom the devils were departed besought him that he might be with him: but Jesus sent him away, saying, Return to thine own house, and shew how great things God hath done unto thee. And he went his way, and published throughout the whole city how great things Jesus had done unto him."

Jesus = God

God the Father
God the Son
God the Holy Spirit

One triune God = One God with 3 personalities

Like H2O/water comes in 3 forms:
Liquid
Solid/ice
Gas/steam

While on earth, Jesus was all God AND all man. Jesus is not the Father. He is the Son of God and the Son of man.

I don't really understand it all; I simply believe it.

John 10:30
I and my Father are one.

1 Corinthians 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.

1 John 5:7
For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

Here are a few more passages that proclaim the diety of Christ:

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
2 The same was in the beginning with God.
3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
14 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.
John 1

6 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, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
7 Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the LORD of hosts will perform this.
Isaiah 9

12 Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
13 Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
14 In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
15 Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
16 For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
17 And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
Colosians 1

Greetings Cathy

In answer to your question,
"Is Jesus Christ God?"

I recommend this video:
The Human Jesus

It addresses John 10.30, 1 John 5.7, John 1.1-3,14; Isaiah 9.6, etc.
Take a couple of hours to watch it; and prayerfully it will aid you in your quest for truth.

Yours In Messiah

Thanks Adam.

For me, there is no question. I firmly believe the Lord Jesus Christ is God, Saviour, Redeemer, King, Master, Creator, the Great I Am, the Good Shepherd, the Way, the Truth, the Life, the Resurrection and so much more.

Cheers!
Cathy
