Scripture reveals Jesus’ divinity through His attributes, actions, and commands, demonstrating He is co-equal with the Father.
The divinity of Jesus is affirmed throughout Scripture, particularly in John 17:5 where He claims glory equal to the Father’s, indicating His divine essence. In addition, the New Testament frequently presents Jesus as the I AM, a declaration of His eternal nature and equality with God. The co-existence and co-essence of Jesus with the Father signify that He is not a lesser being but God incarnate. This understanding is further established in Hebrews 1:3, which states that Jesus is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of His being.
