How do we know the doctrine of Christ's deity is true?

Answered in 7 sources

The doctrine of Christ's deity is affirmed by biblical texts, church history, and the unity of the Scriptures’ testimony.

The truth of Christ's deity is rooted firmly in Scripture and the witness of the early church. Throughout the Bible, including 1 Timothy 3:16, 'God was manifest in the flesh,' we see a clear declaration of the incarnation. Moreover, passages like Hebrews 1:8 affirm the Father calling the Son 'God,' indicating the equality of Christ with God the Father. The apostolic witness also affirms this in 2 Peter 1:1, where Jesus is referred to as 'our God and Savior.' Overall, the cohesive testimony from both the Old and New Testaments, along with the historical confessions of faith, solidifies the belief in Christ's deity as an essential truth of Christianity.
