How do we know Jesus is God according to the Bible?

Answered in 9 sources

The Bible confirms Jesus' divinity through His I Am statements and the fulfillment of prophecies, demonstrating He is God manifest in the flesh.

In the Bible, Jesus asserts His divinity through several I Am statements, such as 'I am the bread of life' (John 6:35) and 'I am the light of the world' (John 8:12). These statements not only connect Him to the eternal name of God revealed in Exodus but also indicate His role as the sustainer and giver of life. Additionally, Scripture like John 1:1 states, 'the Word was God', reinforcing His divine nature and eternal existence alongside the Father. This culminates in 1 Timothy 3:16, which states, 'God was manifest in the flesh,' affirming that Jesus is indeed the incarnate God, fulfilling the promise of salvation and demonstrating His power over sin and death.
