Clarity with the claims of Christ certainly will include the translation of the gospel into words that our hearer understands, but it doesn’t necessarily mean translating it into words that our hearer will like. Too often, advocates of relevant evangelism verge over into being advocates of irrelevant nonevangelism. A gospel that in no way offends the sinner has not been understood.

JESUS IS GOD

Author: Jim Fox

From the beginning of His ministry Jesus Christ claimed equality with God, in some very clear and unmistakeable statements. Jesus equated a person’s attitude toward Himself, with that person’s attitude toward God. Following is a short list showing this.

In seeing Jesus, they were seeing God. John 14:9

In knowing Jesus, they were knowing God. John 8:19

In believing Jesus, they were believing God. John 12:44

In recieving Jesus, they were recieving God. Mark 9:37

In honoring Jesus, they were honoring God. John 5:23

In hating Jesus, they were hating God. John 15:23

Jesus referred to Himself as “the Son” (Matt 11:27), and to God as “the Father” (John 5:19) or “My Father” (Matthew 7:21). In Jewish thought, “son of” implies equality of identical nature. Thus when Jesus said He was the “Son of God”, He identified Himself as God and equal with the Father. The Jews understood what Jesus was saying, and so accused Him of blasphemey (John 19:17, John 5:18).
