Jesus is affirmed as the true God through scriptural declarations of His divinity and His resurrection, which validate His divine nature.
The identity of Jesus as the true God is underscored in several scriptural passages, including 1 John 5:20, which identifies Him as the true God and eternal life. In the sermon, the preacher emphasizes Paul's message in 1 Thessalonians 1:10, where Jesus is shown as the Son of God, raised from the dead—a pivotal event affirming His divine authority and the assurance of salvation. This resurrection not only demonstrates His power over death but also serves as the foundation of Christian hope. Furthermore, the unity of the Father and Son in the Trinity highlights that true faith must be rooted in understanding Christ's full divinity and humanity, marking Him as the only true God worthy of worship and service.
