Who is Jesus?
Jesus of Nazareth is God the Son — true God and true man, one person. This is not one view among several; it is the confession on which the church stands or falls, affirmed at Nicaea and held by all faithful Christians everywhere. There is certainty here.
Where Scripture takes this up
- Romans 1:3-4
3regarding His Son, who was a descendant of David according to the flesh, 4and who through the Spirit of holiness was declared with power to be the Son of God by His resurrection from the dead: Jesus Christ our Lord.
- 1 Corinthians 8:5-6
5For even if there are so-called gods, whether in heaven or on earth (as there are many so-called gods and lords), 6yet for us there is but one God, the Father, from whom all things came and for whom we exist. And there is but one Lord, Jesus Christ, through whom all things came and through whom we exist.
