The divinity of Jesus has been a topic of debate for centuries, with many different perspectives emerging from a variety of religious and cultural backgrounds. But what does the Bible say about the divinity of Jesus? From a biblical worldview, is the divinity of Jesus a myth or reality?
The Bible is clear that Jesus is God in human form. From the very beginning, it is stated that Jesus is the Son of God who has come to earth to save mankind. In the opening of the Gospel of John, it is written, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” (John 1:1). This verse clearly states that Jesus, the Word, was God.
The Bible also reveals that Jesus was not a mere man, but a divine being. Jesus performed numerous miracles, including healing the blind, raising the dead, and calming the storms. These miracles demonstrate that Jesus had supernatural power, something only God can possess.
Additionally, the Bible states that Jesus was fully God and fully man. In Philippians 2:5-7 it is written, “Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: Who, being in the form of God, thought it not robbery to be equal with God: But made himself of no reputation, and took upon him the form of a servant, and was made in the likeness of men.” This verse shows that Jesus was both God and man, and had the power to take the form of both.
In conclusion, from a biblical worldview, the divinity of Jesus is not a myth but a reality. The Bible declares that Jesus is the Son of God and that He is fully God and fully man. Jesus’ numerous miracles demonstrate His power and authority, showing that He is indeed divine. Those who accept and believe in Jesus’ divinity are promised eternal life in heaven with Him.
