The Deity and Greatness of Jesus

Jesus: Lord of lords

Jesus Christ: Updated Revelation  Newborn in a manger  Dead man on a cross  Important aspects, but we must see Jesus as He is: The dead man is now the risen Lord and Christ

Jesus Christ: Updated Revelation  Jesus as He is (Revelation 1:9-20)  Jesus is Worthy of Worship (Revelation 5:11-14)

The Challenges We Face  Ressurgence of Gnosticism  Attraction of Conspiracy Theories  The Desire to Present a Sanitized, Politically Correct Jesus  Subtle influences of Hollywood  Selfish desires to be free of Jesus´ rule

Jesus, being God, is the Only Savior  Acts 4:12 – Jesus is the only Savior  How would that sound to the Jews?  Isaiah 43:10-12  Contrast between God and gods, not between Father and Son

Jesus, being God, is the Correct Object of Faith  Exclusive faith in God (Isaiah 43:10)  Jesus understood this (Mark 11:22)  NT writers understood this (Hebrews 6:1; 11:6)  Jesus taught the importance of faith in Him (Matthew 9:28; John 3:14,15,18; 11:25-26)  Belief in Jesus is necessary for salvation (Acts 10:43; 16:31; Romans 10:11 – cf. Isaiah 28:16)  Belief in Jesus is belief in the Father (John 12:44; 14:1)

Jesus Christ: Worthy of Worship  Creatures are not worthy of worship  Good men refuse worship (Acts 10:25-26; 14:15)  Good men refuse to worship creatures (Daniel 3:12)  Faithful angels refuse worship (Revelation 19:10; 22:8-9)

Jesus Christ: Worthy of Worship  Jesus accepts worship (Matthew 8:2- 3 and other examples)  God orders that He be worshiped (Hebrews 1:6)  The same honor for Father and Son (John 5:23)

Jesus Christ: Worthy of Worship  Comparison of doxologies (from Greek doxa – glory)  God (YHWH) – 1 Chronicles 29:10-11  Jesus – Revelation 5:12-14  The language of worship is applied to Jesus

Jesus Christ: Worthy of Worship  A common misunderstanding  Matthew 4:10 (Deuteronomy 6:13-14)  Contrast between God and gods, not between Father and Son  Jesus is God, and is worthy of worship!

Jesus is Honored as God  Some words peculiar to worship  Others occasionally used of honor to men  But no man is given all these honors in so many statements of lavish praise

Jesus is Honored as God  Fear (Proverbs 9:10)  Fear God (OT) and Jesus (NT)  Isaiah 8:12-13 > 1 Peter 3:14-16  Deuteronomy 10:17,18,20 > 2 Corinthians 5:9-11

Jesus is Honored as God  Fear  Service  Service and worship go together  Matthew 4:10 from Deuteronomy 6:13  Daniel 3:12,14,18,28  Cannot serve image or king  But can serve the Son of Man! (Daniel 7:14)

Jesus is Honored as God  Fear  Service  Service and worship go together  Matthew 4:10 from Deuteronomy 6:13  Daniel 3:12,14,18,28  Cannot serve image or king  But can serve the Son of Man! (Daniel 7:14) Consider 1 Corinthians 10:14-22 in light of this contrast between service to God and service to idols

Jesus is Honored as God  Fear  Service  Service and worship go together  Son of Man honored in same way as Daniel's God (Daniel 4:2-3,34; 6:26; then 7:14)

Jesus is Honored as God  Fear  Service  Love and loyalty  For Jesus (John 14:15,21; 15:10)  For God (Deuteronomy 11:1,13,22)  God/Jesus above Family (Deuteronomy 13:6-8; Matthew 10:37; cf. Luke 14:26)  Undying/sincere love (Ephesians 6:24)

Jesus is Honored as God  Fear  Service  Love and loyalty

Jesus is Honored as God  Prayer  Prayer to idols is ridiculous (Isaiah 44:17; 45:20)  Prayer appeals to God capable of saving (Isaiah 45:22)  No Biblical prayers to angels; they are sent out by God as He answers prayer (Hebrews 1:14)

Jesus is Honored as God  Prayer  Prayers to Jesus  Revelation 22:20  Acts 7:59  Compare to Luke 23:46  Consider Ecclesiastes 12:7

Jesus is Honored as God  Prayer  Singing  Ephesians 5:19 – Lord  Compare to Colossians 3:16 – God (in many versions)  Revelation 5:9-10

Jesus is Lord of lords!  The object of our faith  The only Savior  The object of love and loyalty  One who deserves and receives the worship of those He created

Jesus is Honored as God  “...that all should honor the Son just as they honor the Father. He who does not honor the Son does not honor the Father who sent Him” (John 5:23)
