The Deity of Christ

God said to Moses, I AM WHO I AM.
This is what you are to say to the Israelites:
‘I AM has sent me to you.’
Exodus 3:14
Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you,
Before Abraham was, I am
. John 8:58

For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given:
and the government shall be upon His shoulder:
and His name shall be called Wonderful, Counseller,
The Mighty God, The Everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace
. Isaiah 9:6

Yesterday on social media there was a post about the Deity of Christ
Many argued
Some said that the Father is greater
The original post declared that Jesus is God

Though it was social media, these are real people
One guy called himself a bot but he was not a bot

I asked the Lord about the conversation
The only thing He said to me was that deception will get worse

One guy blocked me and I blocked another one
Once you find there is no common ground,
there really is no longer a point to communicate

Jesus said shake off the dust of your feet if they refuse you:
And whosoever shall not receive you, nor hear your words,
when ye depart out of that house or city,
shake off the dust of your feet
. Matthew 10:14
They could feel the same way and it will be up to the Lord to judge
on the Last Day

The reason Jesus was delivered to Pilate to die and be crucified
was because some of the people hated His message,
especially that He likened Himself to God
One of the accusations of Jesus while He was on trial
was that He was King of the Jews,
but the people misunderstood because His Kingdom was not of this world
And they began to accuse Him, saying,
We found this fellow perverting the nation,
and forbidding to give tribute to Caesar,
saying that He Himself is Christ a King
. Luke 23:2

This also happened beforehand while He was ministering
and the religious leaders sought to kill Him
But the Pharisees went out
and plotted how they might kill Jesu
s. Matthew 12:14 NIV
but His hour had not yet come, so He slipped away
Then they sought to take Him: but no man laid hands on Him,
because His hour was not yet come
. John 7:30
They accused Jesus of calling Himself God’s son, likening Himself to God

Jesus was God in the flesh while He walked on the Earth
Jesus replied, “Philip, I have been with you all this time,
and still you do not know Me?
Anyone who has seen Me has seen the Father.
How can you say, ‘Show us the Father’?
John 14:9

God made Jesus’ position very clear:
And being found in fashion as a man,
He humbled himself, and became obedient unto death,
even the death of the cross.
Wherefore God also hath highly exalted Him,
and given Him a name which is above every name:
That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth;
And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord,
to the glory of God the Father
. Philippians 2:8-11
