The deity of Christ is affirmed through His own claims, His unique works, and the testimonies of Scripture which affirm His equality with God.
The truth of Christ’s deity is substantiated in numerous passages throughout the Bible. For example, in John 10:30, Jesus states, 'I and my Father are one,' directly claiming equality with God, which provoked angry responses from religious leaders who accused Him of blasphemy (John 10:33). Furthermore, His miraculous works, such as raising Lazarus from the dead (John 11:43-44), showcase His divine authority over life and death. Additionally, the apostle Paul asserts in 2 Corinthians 4:4 that Christ is 'the image of God,' affirming that in Christ, we see the fullness of God’s glory manifest. This biblical evidence collectively affirms that Christ is truly God incarnate.
