Paul Called Jesus Christ God! ~
Scripture ~ “And indeed, now I know that you all, among
whom I have gone preaching the kingdom of God, will see my face no more. Therefore I testify to you this day that I am
innocent of the blood of all men. For I
have not shunned to declare to you the whole counsel of God. Therefore take heed to yourselves and to
all the flock, among which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers, to shepherd
the church of God which He purchased with His own blood” (Acts 20:25-28).
“Let
this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who, being in the form of
God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no
reputation, taking the form of a bondservant, and coming in the likeness of
men. And being found in appearance as a
man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the
death of the cross. Therefore God
also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name,
that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of
those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should
confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father”
(Philippians 2:5-11).
“These
things I write to you, though I hope to come to you shortly; but if I am
delayed, I write so that you may know how you ought to conduct yourself in the
house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of
the truth. And without controversy great
is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh, justified in
the Spirit, seen by angels, preached among the Gentiles, believed on in the
world, received up in glory” (1 Timothy 3:14-16).
“For
the grace of God that brings salvation has appeared to all men, teaching us
that, denying ungodliness and worldly lusts, we should live soberly,
righteously, and godly in the present age, looking for the blessed hope and
glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ, who gave
Himself for us, that He might redeem us from every lawless deed and purify for
Himself His own special people, zealous for good works. Speak these things, exhort, and rebuke with
all authority. Let no one despise you”
(Titus 2:11-15).
