How do we know the doctrine of Jesus' divinity is true?

Answered in 3 sources

The doctrine of Jesus' divinity is corroborated by His own statements and the affirmations of Scripture that portray Him as both fully God and fully man.

The truth of Jesus' divinity is rooted in both His own proclamations and the teachings of Scripture. In John 8:58, when Jesus declares, 'Before Abraham was, I am,' He identifies Himself using the name of God, effectively claiming divine status. This assertion aligns with other biblical affirmations, such as Colossians 1:16, which asserts that all things were created by Him and for Him, further evidencing His divine nature. Additionally, Jesus' unique ability to forgive sins and His fulfillment of Old Testament prophecies serve to reinforce the central tenet of His divinity, leading believers to affirm that He is truly the Son of God.
