Transcript

Who is Jesus? Was he just a good moral teacher from two thousand years ago? Was he a being created by God? Well, what does the Bible teach?

The Bible uses the same divine names for Jesus that it uses for God the Father. For example, when God revealed his name to Moses, he called himself Yahweh, or “I AM.” This name for God is used over five thousand times in the Old Testament but in the book of John Jesus used this very name to describe himself. You see, he said “before Abraham was, I AM.” The Jews realized Jesus was calling himself God and tried to stone him.

Jesus wasn’t just a good teacher. Jesus he is God!
