How do we know Jesus Christ is God?

Answered in 4 sources

Jesus is identified as God through His nature, declarations, and the fulfillment of prophecies about the Messiah.

The divinity of Christ is firmly established in Scripture, especially in Colossians 1:15, where He is called the 'image of the invisible God.' This indicates that Jesus fully reveals the nature of God to humanity. Additionally, His claim, 'Before Abraham was, I am' (John 8:58), clearly asserts His eternal existence and divine identity. Furthermore, Colossians 2:9 states, 'In Him dwells all the fullness of the Godhead bodily,' affirming that all of God's attributes are present in Christ. These scriptural affirmations, alongside His miraculous works and His fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies, provide a robust basis for recognizing Jesus as God incarnate.
