Christ is affirmed as God through Scripture, with passages like Colossians 3 and John 1 highlighting His divine nature.
The divinity of Christ is a central tenet of Reformed theology and finds strong support in biblical texts. Colossians 3 explains that Christ is seated at the right hand of God, which indicates His authority and status as divine. In John 1, we see affirmation that the Word was not only with God but was God, thereby establishing His eternal nature and relationship with the Father. In Hebrews 1, God the Father declares to the Son, 'Thy throne, O God, is forever and ever,' explicitly recognizing Christ's divine nature. This consistent testimony throughout Scripture secures the belief in Christ as God and the fulfillment of God's promise.
