Someone asked this question in a group to which I belong 👇 "I'm a new believer and I have always been disturbed by the identity of Jesus Christ. Is He Son of God, or is Jesus Christ God please?" My answer:👇 That's a great question, and you're not alone—many people, even long-time Christians, wrestle with this at some point. The simple answer is: Jesus is both the Son of God and He is God. Let me break it down in a down-to-earth way: Think of it like this: God is so big and beyond us that He chose to reveal Himself in a way we could relate to—as a human being. That human is Jesus Christ. The Bible tells us that Jesus is God's Son, meaning He came from God and shares the same nature as God. But it also tells us that Jesus is God in human form—God stepping into our world in a way we can see, hear, and touch. For example, in John 1:1, it says, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." Then later in John 1:14, it says, "The Word became flesh and lived among us." That “Word” is Jesus. So, Jesus is God who took on human flesh. And when Jesus was baptized, God the Father spoke from heaven, and the Holy Spirit came down like a dove—this shows us that God is one, but exists as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit—what Christians call the Trinity. Actually, the phrase, "Son of God" means "God in human form." When Jesus confessed to the Jews of His day that He was the Son of God, they didn't understand it the same way we understand sonship today. To them, it meant more than that. Jesus, by saying He was the Son of God had admitted that He was Jehovah in human form. This was the reason they crucified Him. They claimed that, as a mere man, He was making Himself equal with God. But in reality, Jesus was not trying to claim equality with God. He didn't have to "claim it" because He already is God (co-equal, co-eternal and co-existent with God). You remember that after Jesus arose from death and appeared to His disciples who were locked up in a room for fear of the Jews, Thomas fell before Jesus and called Him, "my Lord and my God" (see John 20:28). Jesus didn't rebuke Thomas for calling Him "God." Instead Jesus answered, “You believe because you have seen me. Blessed are those who believe without seeing me.” (John 20:29) So, yes. Jesus is both God and the Son of God. He is the fullness of God revealed to humanity. He is the visible representation of the invisible God. So, in short: * Jesus is the Son of God—He came from God and represents Him. * Jesus is also God—not a separate god, but God Himself who came to us in human form. It’s a deep truth, but as you grow in your faith and read the Bible more, it becomes clearer. And you don’t have to figure it all out at once—just keep following Jesus and asking questions like this!
