Does Thomas exclamation at John 20:28 prove that Jesus is truly God? Thomas answered him,'My Lord and my God! There is no objection to reffering to Jesus as "God,"if this is what Thomas had in mind. Such would be in harmony with Jesus own quotation from the Psalms in which powerful men, judges, were addressed as "gods."( John 10:34,35,RS; Ps 82:1-6) Of course, Christ occupies a position far higher than such men. Because of the uniqueness of his position in relation to Jehovah, at John 1:1(NW)Jesus is referred as the only-begotten god. Isaiah 9:6(RS) also prophetically descibes Jesus as "Mighty God," but not as the Almighty God. All of this is in harmony with Jesus' being described as " a god," or "divine at John 1:1. The context help us to draw the right conclusion from this. Shortly before Jesus' death, Thomas had herd Jesus' prayer in which he addressed his father as "the only true God."(John17:3) After Jesus' resurrection Jesus had sent a message to his apostles, including Thomas, in which he had said: "I am ascending...to my God and your God." ( John 20:17,RS) After recording what Thomas said when he actually saw and touched the resurrected Christ, the apostle John stated: These are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name."( John 20:31,RS) So, if anyone has concluded from Thomas'exclamation that Jesus is himself "the only true God" or that Jesus is a Trinitarian "God the Son" he needs to look again at what Jesus himself said (vs.17) and at the conclusion that is clearly stated by the apostle John (vs.31).
Jesus the son of God was also God in the flesh. notice the last line in John 1:1 1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (THE WORD WAS GOD).. now drop down to John 1:14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
The Word was God and the Word was made Flesh(Jesus)
now read Isaiah 9:6 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, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Here it is prophesying the birth of Jesus notice what his name shall be called (the everlasting Father, the mighty God)
also read 1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
Here is says God was manifest in the flesh (how? Jesus)ustified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, who is preached unto the Gentiles (Jesus)believed on in the world(Jesus) Who was received up into Glory (Jesus) but this scripture clearly says God.
so not only is Jesus the only begotten son of God he is God. John 10:30
I and my Father are one.
The fear of the Lord,that's where it should begin,then let the Lord lead you and your every step,down that narrow path.Separate yourself from this world,not wanting to be like or with the big crowd's,be yourself in Christ Jesus.Peter was giving the"KEY'S"to life and death,by Jesus,and it is in Acts 3:38&39,Repent, and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins and you shall receive the Holy GHost.For the promise is unto you and your family, as many as our Lord our God shall call.Forgive me if i missed anything in that,and shame on me for not knowing it word for word! John 3:5 state's that if you are not baptized in Water and the Spirit,you cannot enter in the Kingdom of God...everybody think's it's a big mistery,look at 1Timothy 3:16...praise Jesus!He is the only God that i know of that walk on this earth!!! John 1:1 and 1:14...2800 times the bible tell's of the oneness of God and that He is the only Spirit, Ephesians 4:4,5 and the saviour is only one, Isaiah 43:11 and Luke 1:47 and best of all, Isaiah 9:6...the Son is the Father,Prince of peace,GOD...thank-you Jesus that i hear your vioce and know the truth!!!My sheep hear My voice and they follow Me....Yes Lord!!!
This is for Jerome Rivera's question,"what is God's name",well if you read Isaiah 9:6, Luke 1:31,&1:35, 1Timothy 3:16:God was manfest in the flesh,sound's like Jesus to me!I know of only one God that walk on this earth,Jesus!He is the first and the last,welspring of living water,bread of life...Jesus is God!Anyone who would believe this and be baptized in his name,NOT name's(Acts3:38&39),shall reciece the gift of the Holy Ghost and speak in tounges as the Spirit give's them the utterance...as God's word say's.Don't try to understand it all, just believe and do what God command's of us.He never said,"Understand and you'll be saved",just believe on his word's and in Him,and do what Acts 3:38,9 tell's you to do.All the healing's in the Bible were followed by,by your faith you are healed,go and tell no one.But now that He is risen,go and tell the world about it!!!Jesus lives and is the ONLY GOD that died and is ALIVE,He has the power to take His own life and give it back!He doesn't need us, we need Him,in everything we do,do in His name and you'll never go wrong!Love Him with ALL your heart and body and soul and straingh,and trust in Him,He will lead you, but you have to believe in something that you cannot see or touch,that's called HOPE.I never knew God till about 4&1/2 year's ago and now my whole life has changed,I was baptized in the name of Jesus Christ and I recieved the Holy Ghost soon after-ward's and speak in tounges as proof that God is in me!!!My daughter had skull surgy aweek or so afterward's and she was not expected to make-it.We prayed by lying hand's on her like it say's in the wrod of God, to do, and in His name,Jesus! In amatter of minuets i heard the machine beep and i looked over at it,and began praying again asking Jesus to save our 9 month old from dieing because it wouldn't be fair to her to miss out on our love in this life, and the machine beeped a couple more time's, and everytime it beeped, the tempature came down more,(it started at 107)pretty soon the nurse walked out back-ward's and when he returned, he started taking the wire's off of her that was hooked to that machine.I asked what he was doing,don't you need those to monitor her stats, and he told me, that from what he'd just seen,she was in"GOOD HAND'S and the machine had nothing on it(meaning the power of GOD!)He'd just went and made arrangement's for her to be moved to a semi-private recovery room,she's out of danger!Wow,i was floating around like you wouldn't believe,drunk in the Spirit as they say.It was awsome, the way God healed her and it was because we prayed in the name of Jesus,not some title's!!! God still is very much in our lives and Leah is doing great!She is now five and in kindergarden,ahe does have alittle bit of a speach inpeddement,but she take's a speech thrapy class and is doing very good,Thank-You Jesus!!!My Lord and my God,Here Ol'Israel,our Lord is One God!And there is no mystery here,if you believe He is God,all the knowledge of God will be poured out to you,wisdom and discernment will be your's also, God bless all who follow Him!There is ONE who sits on the thrown,Jesus Christ is Lord of Lords!!!
What i get out of it is the more you seek the wisdom of God, the more knowledge he allow's you to recieve.And this fact is for anyone who think's that the world is billion's of year's old,it's not!If you read the word of God(Bible)He (GOD) say's that the world is about six thousand year's old.Were coming upon the seventh,according to the word of God.Another thing is,Jesus is God( Isaiah 9:6), Deuteronomy 6:4, John 10:30, 1 Timothy 3:16, Ephesians 4:4-6,ect. it states in the Bible about 2,800 times that there is only ONE God!Jesus is the saviour and there is only one( Isaiah 43:11),and again in Luke 1:47...God my saviour..It seem's pretty straight forward to me,"My sheep hear my voice",are you hearing the word of God? Don't let man's interpetation miss lead you"sheep in wolves clothing",this once saved, alway's saved stuff.Even Paul said"I die daily",so what do you think he's talking about?Do youself a favor,and repent,be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sin's( Acts 2:38,39)that's the"KEYS" to heaven,Jesus gave them to Peter and taght him how to start the"church".Any other way is a thief and a robber,only the straight and the narrow way lead's to salvation.All the baptizum's in the Bible( Acts 8,10,12,18,22...)are in the NAME of The Lord Jesus Christ,not in the title's father,son,and the Holy Ghost.Stop and pray...in the name of Jesus to lead you down the right path!Has anyone ever prayed father,son,and Holy Spirit for a healing and recieved one?There is NO power in the title's!All you do,in word and or deed, do in the NAME of Jesus Christ,that's what God's word instruct's us to do!Do you speak in toung's?Jesus' mother did,and so did the first 120 that gladly recieved the Holy Spirit,in the upper room where Jesus told them to wait for the promise of the Father,Who showed up?Jesus did!!!Not the first part of a three-som,or the second,or the third,it was ALL JESUS and even Thomas said after he doughted,"My Lord and My God!There wasn't 2 Spirit's standing there!Just Jesus,and if you don't believe this salvation message, then you will die in your sin's,according to the "WORD of GOD",you have 2 ear's to hear with,listen...God is calling you.............................
Isaiah 9:6 is such an encouraging verse not only does it show how much god loves us(mankind) that he would send his only begotton son (his first creation ever)
As a sacrifice for us(john3:16,colossians1:15) but it also gives us hope. A hope that we will actually have a government that achives peace lasting peace! A governmentthat Will swallow up death forever and have victory over it. Which i have yet to see any human government accomplish. ( Isaiah 25:8;rev:21:4) that I
Would be such a privilege to live under such rule
Jesus is the God, the old testator died(flesh on the cross),In ALL you do,word and/or deed, do in the NAME, not names and the so called trinity is NOT in the bible.It's man made and of the devil! Don't be fooled into believeing mans word over God.Repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sin's(Acts2:38)we live in the new testament now and Gods name changed,the NEW Testament?No longer do we strip down and cover ourselves with ashes,Jesus(the flesh)was the last blood sacrafice, no longer do we kill a bull,dove,ect. for our sin's.It's done away-with till Jesus want's to bring it back!One Lord,one faith,one baptisum,God of ALL and IN you-all,that have His Spirit,and if you don't beleive it, you will die in your sin's!
I have a doubt, in Isaiah 9: 3 says: 3 Thou hast multiplied the nation, [and] not increased the joy: they joy ... whereas in the versions Reina-Valera 1960 (Spanish) and in the NVI (in Spanish and Portugues) say that the joy had been encreased too: "Multiplicaste la gente, y aumentaste la alegría." Can you tell me where does the difference come from? Thank you very much in advance.
Humility is one of the greatest vitues lacking in ' man ' especially today. Jesus, our Lord, Our Saviour, and our God, is expressing that the attainment of equality with God is not what should be sought after as the goal. If you continue to read on past this it does state that one should empty oneself as though a slave.
How humbling it must have been with all of man's faults for GOD to come in human form and likeness so that we could get a glimpse into how much HE loves us.
That is the true meaning of sacrifice. He offered himself for us [His Love] and to us [His Blood] yet He is still rejected by the many who refuse to see or hear.
I John 5:6-7
6 This is he that came by water and blood, [even] Jesus Christ; not by water only, but by water and blood. And it is the Spirit that beareth witness, because the Spirit is truth.

God Loves us all the same and has revealed himself to us so that we might have a relationship with Him. Therfore we are blessed to be able to love Him as the Father, Son and Holy Spirit of God. Not the other way around. He is but One.
No other has nor no others will do what He has.
John 5:21-25
21 For as the Father raiseth up the dead, and quickeneth [them]; even so the Son quickeneth whom he will.
22 For the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son:
23 That all [men] should honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father which hath sent him.
24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.
25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.

Greetings everyone in the Name of Jesus Christ! In Matthew 28:19 our Lord gave the command to the disciples to go baptize in the Name (of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost). To find out how this commandment was carried out, we must search the book of Acts. On the day of Pentcost, Acts 2:37 Baptism was in the Name Of JESUS. This was preached by the Apostle Peter. Acts 8:12-17 the Church at Samaria was established and they were baptised in the Name of Jesus by Philip, another of Christ's diciples. The Church at Caesarea, Acts 10:44-48, baptism was also preformed by Peter in the Name of the Lord, which is Jesus. The Church of Philippi, Acts l6:14,15,also verses 25-34; as also the Church of the Ephesians were baptized by Paul in the Name of Jesus. Acts 18:1-11, Acts 19:1-7Romans 6:3, Acts 22:16 are also examples. Even those that were baptized by John the Baptist, after they received instruction by Apostle Paul were RE-baptized in the Name of Jesus. Now I ask you to answer this question-- Did the Apostles and Disciples of Jesus defy His command to be baptized IN THE NAME of the father,son,and Holy Ghost or were they carrying out His instructions knowing there is only ONE NAME given under heaven whereby ye must be saved? Allow Jesus to take the blinder off your mind and receive this wonderful truth: Jesus is the Name of God (father,son, Holy Ghost) He is the Word made flesh. No more than you can separate your word from who you are, Neither can the ONE GOD separate Himself into three separate Gods. It is One God in three offices---Father, Son, Holy Ghost...OH PRAISE THAT SAVING NAME WHICH REVEALED BY THE ANGEL !!! Read Isaiah 9:6--The prophecy of His Name. GOD CAME WRAPPED IN A NAME IN BETHLEHEM. May the Lord reveal His Truth to you.
In what sense is Jesus a “Mighty God”?
Isaiah also foretold that Jesus would be a “Mighty God.” Before coming to earth he was “a god” in the sense that he was “the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation.” ( John 1:1; Colossians 1:15) After dying as a human and being raised as an immortal spirit, he is a god in the sense that he partakes bodily of “the divine quality.”— Colossians 2:9; 1 Timothy 6:15, 16.
However, there is an authority associated with the title “Mighty God.” In the Bible certain men were called gods. Why? Because they served as judges in the nation of Israel. ( Psalm 82:1-6) Jesus, the “Mighty God,” is Jehovah’s great appointed Judge. He himself explained what this meant: “The Father judges no one at all, but he has committed all the judging to the Son, in order that all may honor the Son just as they honor the Father.”— John 5:22, 23.
Among the judgment acts entrusted to Jesus is the judging of his own congregation—both those who had died prior to his return in Kingdom power and those still alive—at the period of his presence during “the conclusion of the system of things.” ( Matthew 24:3) He also does the judging of the nations today, separating “the sheep” from “the goats.” In addition, he will preside over the thousand-year judgment day of all mankind after Armageddon. A “Mighty God” indeed!— Matthew 25:31-46; Revelation 11:18; 1 Peter 4:17; Revelation 20:4, 5, 13.

With regard to your question, in Isaiah 9:6, Jesus was also called Father ( Jn. 21:5 )...But it does'nt mean that he is also the Almighty Father, Like Jesus said, that His Father is greater than him... The bible also tells that Paul was also called father ( I Cor. 4:15 )... Don If you want to know more about Jesus you can visit my Brother blog www.esoriano.wordpress//www.mcgi.org site were in you can ask live questions with regard to bible scripture... GOD Bless!!!!
Thanks for the input Kaanib and "Just FYI"...I am hoping you can you help me out with this passage from 1 Timothy 3:16 -- "God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory."
and the one from Isaiah 9:6 -- "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."
I am genuinely interested in your take on these passages in regards to our present conversation.
Think about what the Bible says about the names of the One True God of Heaven and earth.
Genesis 3:13,14 - And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.
Isaiah 9:6 - 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, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Psalm 83:18 - That men may know that thou, whose name alone is JEHOVAH, art the most high over all the earth.
John 1:1,14 - In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God...And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.
Luke 1:31-33 - And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS. He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David: And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.
Revelation 19: 13,16 - And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God....And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.
The Mighty God(YHWH), The Everlasting Father..I only have One True and Living God...Jesus is the name. For His name is above every name...there is no other name under heaven giving amoung men whereby we must be saved.
Why people don't noticed verse 7? As if they only read verse 6 pertaining to Jesus Christ? David's throne is in Israel. It is speaking of God's government. That is why Jesus is called a Prince. If you read the ending chapter of Revelation. You will see that God with Jesus Christ will establish their government on earth. Then will soon spread all over the universe.
JUST REMEMBER ISAIAH 9:6 THE LORD IS GOVERNING THIS WORLD SO BEAWARE OF WHAT IS SAID BECAUSE Psalms 75:7
But God [is] the judge: he putteth down one, and SETTETH up another FOR JESUS HAS COME THAT NO MAN BE CONDENMED BUT ALL TO BE SAVED. ACTS 2;36-40
Livingstone Shimukamwinda on Isaiah 9 - 15 years ago
If God allowed his son to be called: Wonderful counsellor, mighty God, prince of peace... Then this shows us how he loved the son... If Jesus is the mighty God, then he is worthy to be called God... Hence he and his father are one... Not only he and the father, but also the holy ghost... 1 John 5 vs 7-11...
Raymond Calvin Ochieng' on Isaiah 9:6 - 15 years ago
Many people and some religious groups have come to critisize the trinity, saying that Jesus is not God. This portion of the scripture clearly erases that doubt for the Child who is born unto us, the Son given unto us is Jesus Christ. Therefore Jesus Christ is a Mighty God, Everlasting Father and the Prince of Peace.
The Lord my God has been beside me all of my life in times of pain. He has been with me when I thought that there was no hope for me. Christ died on the cross and shed his blood to pay our sin debt in full. I trust in Him to be my Lord and Savior. Woo to those who turn their backs on God.
I HAVE ONE SON AND COULDNT IMAGINE SENDING HIM TO DIE. WHAT A HUGE PICTURE OF LOVE TO KNOW OUR SAVIOR DIED FOR ME. I ASSURE YOU I WAS NOT DESERVING.I THANK HIM EVERYDAY PRAISE JESUS
The Lord God will have no mercy on those who sin against him and the Lord God even told his people that he would send his only Son Imanuell to come to this earth and yet they did not believe him and still many do not believe in the Lord God or that he sent his only begotten Son to die in our place oh what a wonderful Saviour we have if we seek him with all of our hearts we willl Find him and he will live in our hearts if we only Believe in Gods word and put our Trust in him I truely love him with all my heart and Soul and he loves all those who are steadfast and our obedient to God Almighty what a wonderful Saviour we Have
The Word was God and the Word was made Flesh(Jesus)
now read Isaiah 9:6 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, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
Here it is prophesying the birth of Jesus notice what his name shall be called (the everlasting Father, the mighty God)
also read 1 Timothy 3:16 And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.
Here is says God was manifest in the flesh (how? Jesus)ustified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, who is preached unto the Gentiles (Jesus)believed on in the world(Jesus) Who was received up into Glory (Jesus) but this scripture clearly says God.
so not only is Jesus the only begotten son of God he is God.
