Those who deny the deity of Christ fall into 1 of 2 categories:
- He is a created being, therefore was never God (Jehovah’s Witnesses)
- He is eternal, but gave up His deity when He came to earth
God is Unchangeable – Malachi 3:6; Hebrews 13:8
Jesus has All the Attributes of God
- Eternal – John 1:1-3
- Omnipotent (all-powerful) – Isaiah 9:6; Matthew 28:18
- Omnipresent (can choose to be anywhere) – Psalm 139:7-12; John 3:13
- Omniscient (all-knowing) – 1 John 3:20; John 2:24-25
Jesus is God – John 1:1; Colossians 2:9; Titus 2:13
Does it matter if we believe in the deity of Christ? – Absolutely! (John 8:24)
