We know Jesus is both God and man through Scripture that testifies to His dual nature (1 Tim 3:16).
The dual nature of Jesus Christ as both fully God and fully man is articulated in 1 Timothy 3:16, which states, 'Great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh.' This indicates that while He existed as God before His incarnation, He came into the world as a man. Throughout both the Old and New Testaments, Jesus fulfills the prophecies and divine attributes, performing miracles, forgiving sins, and ultimately defeating death through His resurrection. His ability to relate to humanity while being the righteous God provides believers with hope for salvation, as He is uniquely qualified to mediate between God and man.
