How do we know Jesus Christ is the true God?

The understanding that Jesus Christ is the true God is rooted in Scripture, particularly in passages like 1 John 5:20, which affirms that 'we know that the Son of God has come and given us an understanding that we may know Him who is true.' This knowledge is not based on human reasoning but is revealed through the Gospel. Throughout the New Testament, the divine nature of Christ is confirmed through His miraculous works, fulfillment of prophecy, and the claims of being one with the Father as seen in John 10:30. Therefore, faith in the deity of Christ is both a personal conviction and a theological affirmation grounded in the authority of God’s Word.
