Jesus Is God In The Flesh

(John 1:1-3) "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. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made." It's hard to believe after reading these verses that some people still struggle with Jesus being God. In fact the scriptures teach us that the closer we see the day of Jesus' return, the more this truth will be under attack. 1) Jesus is the Word. The "Word," in the Greek means that he "was the Logos." A name given only to him who afterward became flesh, or was incarnate (Joh 1:14)--that is, given only to the Messiah, Jesus Christ. "And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God" (Rev.19:13). 2) Jesus is God. He also is the only one that "made everything that is made," as stated clearly in (Gen.1:1). "The same was in the beginning with God." From before the creation of the world Jesus was God the Son. From his pre-incarnate appearances in the OT, to his earthly miracles, to his clear teachings that he had the power on earth to forgive sin, Jesus proved that he was God. For as his Word says He is the King of Kings and Lord of Lords.
