How Can You Be Certain That Jesus Is God?

The Bible tells the story of God’s redemptive plan in Jesus from beginning to end. From Genesis to Revelation, we see the fingerprints of our Savior. “All along,” wrote Glen Scrivener for desiringGod.org,” “true faith was messianic faith, centered on Christ himself.” Emmanuel, God with us, Jesus was born incarnate on the earth fully human and fully God. 

“The Bible teaches that Jesus is not merely someone who is a lot like God, or someone who has a very close walk with God,” wrote Matt Perman for desiringGod, “Rather, Jesus is the Most High God himself.” What’s more, Jesus promised never to leave us alone. Believers are given the gift of the Holy Spirit, dwelling in us at all times. God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit are three separate persons that make up the one Triune God.
