JESUS CHRIST, THE
SON OF GOD

1. Jesus' Father,
God, is the Eternal Spirit & Creator:

A. God has always
existed & always will:

Exo.3:14  God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM

Psa.90:2  From everlasting to everlasting, Thou art
God

Psa.102:24b-27      The
heavens...shall perish, but Thou shalt endure... Thou art the same, & Thy
years shall have no end

Rev.1:8   I am Alpha & Omega, the
beginning & the ending...which is, & which was, & which is to come,
the Almighty

(See
also Isa.41:4)

B. God is an
immortal, invisible Spirit:

Jn.4:24    God is a Spirit: they that
worship Him must worship Him in spirit & in truth

1Tim.1:17               Unto
the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be honour & glory

(See
also 2Cor.3:17a; Heb.11:27.)

C. He fills the
entire universe:

2Chr.2:6  Who is able to build Him an house
(temple), seeing the heaven & the Heaven of heavens cannot contain Him?

Psa.139:7-10          Whither
shall I flee from Thy presence? Thou art there

Acts
7:48,49          Heaven
is My throne, & earth is My footstool

Acts
17:24-29        In
Him we live, & move, & have our being

(See
also 1Ki.8:27; 2Chr.6:18; Isa.66:1.)

D. He is the only
true God:

Isa.43:10,11            I
am He: before Me there was no God...neither shall there be after Me

Isa.44:6,8b             I
am the first, & the last; beside Me there is no God

Isa.45:21b,22         There
is no God else beside Me...I am God, & there is none else

E. He created the
world, the universe, & man:

Gen.1:1   In the beginning God created the
heaven & the earth

Gen.1:26,27            God
created man in His Own image...male & female

Gen.2:7   God formed man of the dust of the
ground

(See
also Isa.45:18; 48:13; Acts 17:24-26.)

F. His
understanding & power are infinite:

Psa.139:4                There
is not a word in my tongue, but, lo, O Lord, Thou knowest it altogether

Psa.147:5                Great
is our Lord...His understanding is infinite

Isa.40:13-18           All
nations before Him are as nothing...less than nothing, & vanity

Isa.40:28b              There
is no searching of His understanding

Rom.11:33              O
the depth of...the wisdom & knowledge of God!

G. God is far
beyond man's limited ability to understand:

Isa.55:8,9                As
the heavens are higher than the earth, so are...My thoughts (higher) than your
thoughts

H. God has a wonderful
& beautiful plan for man:

1Cor.2:9  Neither have entered into heart of man,
the [wonderful] things God hath prepared for them that love Him

(See
also Isa.64:4)

I. But sinful man
is estranged from God:

Rom.3:23                For
all have sinned, & come short of the glory of God

Eccl.7:20 Not a just man on earth, that...sinneth not

Isa.59:2   Your iniquities have separated
between you & your God

J. God loved man
& wanted him to have salvation:

Mat.18:14               It
is not the will of (God) that one...should perish

2Pet.3:9  The Lord is...not willing that any
should perish (See also Ezk.18:23,32; 33:11.)

2. Why God sent
Jesus into the world:

A. God sent Jesus
to show us a picture of what He is like:

Col.1:13b,15           His
dear Son: Who is the image (perfect picture) of the invisible God

Heb.1:3   The brightness of His (God's)
glory, & the express (clearly communicated) image of His person

2Cor.4:4b               Christ,
Who is the image of God

B. In knowing
Jesus, we can know & understand God:

Jn.8:19    If ye had known Me, ye should
have known My Father

Jn.14:7-9 He that hath seen Me hath seen the Father

(See
also Jn.12:45)

C. God showed us
His love by sending Jesus to earth:

Jn.3:16    God so loved the world, that
He gave His only...Son

Rom.5:8  God commendeth His love toward us, in
that...Christ [came into the world &] died for us

1Jn.4:8b-10            The
love of God...God sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live
through Him

(See
also Eph.2:4-7)

D. Jesus showed us
God's love by dying for us:

Jn.10:11  I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd
giveth His life for the sheep

Jn.15:13  Greater love hath no man than this, that
a man lay down his life for his friends

E. Jesus' death
paid the price for our sins, & if we believe in Him, we receive God's gift
of salvation:

1Tim.1:15               Christ
Jesus came into the world to save sinners

Lk.19:10  The Son of man is come to seek & to
save that which was lost (See also Mat.9:13)

Jn.3:17    God sent not His Son into the
world to condemn world; but that the world through Him might be saved

Rom.5:6-11             We
were reconciled to God by the death of His Son

1Jn.3:5    He was manifested to take
away our sins

1Jn.4:14  The Father sent the Son to be the Saviour
of the world

Rev.5:9b Thou wast slain, & redeemed us to God by
Thy blood

(See
also 1Cor.15:3; Eph.1:7; 2:12-18; 1Thes.5:9,10; Heb.9:12,14,26b,28; 10:12,14;
1Jn.4:9,10; Rev.1:5b.)

3. More reasons why
God sent Jesus into the world:

A. To proclaim the
truth:

Jn.18:37b                For
this cause came I into the world, that I should bear witness unto the truth

B. To destroy the
power of the devil:

1Jn.3:8    For this purpose the Son of
God was manifested, that He might destroy the works of the devil

Heb.2:14b,15         That...He
(Jesus) might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil

(See
also 1Cor.15:54-57)

C. To know our
human weaknesses & to sympathise with us:

Heb.2:16-18           Made
like unto His brethren...in that He himself hath suffered being tempted, He is
able to succour them

Heb.4:15 (He was) touched with the feeling of our
infirmities: Lk.2:40 (growing up); Lk.4:2 (hunger); Lk.8:23 (need for sleep);
Lk.9:58 (poverty); Jn.4:6,7 (weariness & thirst); Mat.26:37 (sorrow).

4. Jesus' teachings
& personal example:

A. Jesus' teachings
were with power & authority:

Lk.4:32    They were astonished at His
doctrine: for His word was with power (See also Mat.7:28,29 )

Jn.7:46    Never man spake like this man

B. Jesus' message
was love:

Mat.22:37-39         Thou
shalt love the Lord..thou shalt love thy neighbour

Jn.13:34,35             A
new commandment I give you, That ye love one another

Jn.15:12  Love one another, as I have loved you

(See
also Jn.15:17; 17:26; 1Jn.3:11.)

C. Jesus' humility:

Phi.2:5-8 (He) made Himself of no reputation, &
took...the form of a servant...humbled Himself

Mat.11:29               Learn
of Me; for I am meek & lowly in heart

Lk.22:27  I am among you as He that serveth

Jn.13:3-15               [Jesus'
humble example of washing His disciples' feet]

D. He befriended
& won sinners & outcasts of society:

Mat.9:9-13             Jesus
sat at meat (ate with) many publicans & sinners Lk.7:36-48 [Jesus
confounded a Pharisee by allowing a sinful woman to touch, wash & kiss His
feet as He was eating]

Lk.19:2-10              [Jesus
ate with & forgave a despised tax collector]

Lk.23:39-43            [Jesus
forgave the penitent thief dying with Him]

Jn.8:1-11 [Jesus forgave the woman caught in adultery]

5. Jesus, the way
to salvation:

A. Jesus is the
only way to God:

Jn.1:29    The Lamb of God, which
taketh away the sin of the world

Jn.14:6    I am the way, the truth,&
the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me

Acts
4:12               Neither
is there salvation in any other: for there is none other name...whereby we must
be saved

1Tim.2:5 One mediator between God & men,
Christ Jesus

1Jn.5:11  God hath given to us eternal life, &
this life is in His Son

(See
also Jn.8:51; 10:7-9; 17:2,3.)

B. Jesus has the
power to give us eternal life:

Jn.5:26    As the Father hath life in
Himself; so hath He given to the Son to have life in Himself

Jn.1:4      In Him was life;
& the life was the light of men

Jn.3:16    Whosoever believeth in
Him...have everlasting life

Jn.5:24    He that believeth hath
everlasting life, &...is passed from death unto life

Jn.6:40    Every one which...believeth
on Him (has) everlasting life

Jn.6:47    He that believeth on Me hath
everlasting life

Jn.6:48,50,51          I
am the living bread...if any man eat of this bread, he shall live forever

Jn.10:28  I give unto them eternal life; & they
shall never perish

Jn.11:25  I am the resurrection, & the life

Jn.17:2,3 This is life eternal, that they might
know...Jesus Christ

Rom.6:23                The
gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ

Heb.5:9   He (Jesus) became the author of
eternal salvation

1Jn.5:12,13             He
that hath the Son hath life...you that believe on the name of the Son of
God...have eternal life

C. When we receive
Jesus, God dwells in our hearts:

1Jn.4:15  Whosoever shall confess that Jesus is the
Son of God, God dwelleth in him, & he in God (See also Jn.13:20b)

D. God's sheep will
hear Jesus' voice & come to Him:

Jn.5:23    All men should honour the
Son, even as they honour the Father

Jn.6:45    Every man that...learned of
the Father, cometh unto Me

Jn.8:42    If God were your Father, ye
would love Me (Jesus)

Jn.10:3,5,27            My
sheep hear My voice...& they follow Me

E. God loves us if
we love Jesus:

Jn.14:21,23             He
that loveth Me shall be loved of My Father

Jn.16:27  The Father Himself loveth you, because ye
loved Me

F. Those that hate
Jesus, also hate God:

Jn.15:23,24             He
that hateth Me (Jesus) hateth My Father also...now have they both seen &
hated both Me & My Father

G. What rejecting
Jesus means:

Jn.3:36b  He that believeth not the Son shall not
see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him

Jn.3:18    He that believeth not (on
Jesus) is condemned already

Jn.3:19,20               This
is the condemnation, that light is come into the world, & men loved
darkness rather than light

Jn.8:24    If ye believe not that I am
He, ye shall die in your sins

Jn.12:48  He that rejecteth Me...hath one that
judgeth him : the Word...shall judge him in the last day

1Jn.2:22,23             Whosoever
denieth the Son...hath not the Father

1Jn.5:12b                He
that hath not the Son of God hath not life

6. Jesus, the light
of the world:

A. Jesus is the
true Light:

Jn.1:9      That was that
true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world

Jn.8:12    I am the light of the world:
he that followeth Me shall not walk in darkness (See also Jn.9:5)

Mat.4:16 The people which sat in darkness saw great
light...in the region & shadow of death light is sprung up

Lk.2:30-32              A
light to lighten the (nations) (See also Isa.49:6)

1Jn.2:8    The darkness is past, &
the true light now shineth

(See
also Acts 26:18)

B. The devil &
evil men hate the true Light:

(See
2Cor.4:4; Jn.1:5; 3:19-21.)

7. Jesus' life
& resurrection are a fact:

A. The facts of His
life & death were recorded by eyewitnesses:

2Pet.1:16                We
have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we [told of the] coming
of Jesus, but were eyewitnesses

Lk.1:1,2   Those things which are most surely
believed among us... they [told] us, which were...eyewitnesses

Jn.19:25,26,34,35   He (John) that saw it
[Jesus' crucifixion] bare record, & his record is true: & he knoweth
that he saith true

Acts
4:20               We
cannot but speak the things which we have seen

Acts
10:38,39        We
are witnesses of all things which He did

(See
also Jn.21:24,25; Acts 5:32; Heb.2:3; 1Jn.1:1-3a.)

B. His resurrection
from the dead is a fact:

showed Himself alive after His passion (death) by many infallible
proofs, being seen of them 40 days

2:31,32          Jesus
hath God raised up, whereof we all are witnesses

Acts
13:30,31        God
raised Him (Jesus) from the dead: & He was seen many days of them...His
witnesses

1Cor.15:3-6            He
rose again...He was seen of above 500 brethren at once (See also Acts 10:40,41)

C. His resurrection
proves that He is divine:

Rom.1:3,4               Jesus
Christ our Lord was...declared to be the Son of God with power...by the
resurrection from the dead

8. Eyewitness
accounts in the Bible tell us that:

of God:

unto Me, Thou art My Son

Pro.30:4  Who hath established all the ends of the
earth? What is His name, & what is His Son's name?

Dan.3:25 I see four men...the fourth is like the Son of
God

(See
also Dan.7:13,14)

B. Jesus declared
He was the Son of God, Christ the Messiah:

art the Christ, the Son of...God. Jesus answered, Blessed art thou...My Father
(revealed it unto you)

Mat.26:63,64          I
adjure Thee...tell us whether Thou be the Christ, the Son of God. Jesus saith
unto him, Thou hast said

Mat.27:43b            He
said, I am the Son of God (See also Jn.19:7)

Mk.14:61,62           Art
Thou Christ, Son of the Blessed? Jesus said, I am

thee am He

talketh with thee

Jn.10:33,36-38        Because
I said, I am the Son of God

(See
also Jn.3:16-18,34-36; 5:19,20,25,26; 6:40; 11:4.)

sure that Thou art that Christ, the Son of God

knew He was the Son of God:

(See

E. Jesus called God
His Father:

Jn.5:17,18,20          Jesus...said
that God was His Father, making Himself equal with God

Jn.8:54    My Father...of whom ye say,
that He is your God

(See
also Lk.10:22; 22:29; Jn.5:22-31,36,37; 8:16,19, 26-28,38,49; 14:13; 16:28;

Jesus with power:

unclean spirits, & they do obey Him

Lk.4:16-21              Spirit
of the Lord is upon Me...He hath anointed Me

Jn.3:34b  God giveth not the Spirit by measure unto
Him

Acts
10:38             God
anointed Jesus...with the Holy Ghost & with power

11. Jesus' relationship
with God:

A. Jesus' closeness
to God, His Father:

Jn.1:18    The only begotten Son...is in
the bosom of the Father

Jn.16:15  All things that the Father hath are Mine

(See
also Jn.15:15)

B. He was with God
in His pre-existence in Heaven:

Jn.17:5,24               The
glory which I had with Thee before the world was

Jn.8:42b  I proceeded forth & came from
God...He sent Me

2Cor.8:9  Though He was rich, yet for your sakes He
became poor

(See
also Jn.1:1; 13:3; 16:28; 17:8,18a.)

C. God loves
Jesus & is pleased with Him:

Mat.3:16,17            This
is My beloved Son, in Whom I am well pleased

Jn.8:29b  I do always those things that please Him

(See
also Lk.9:34,35; Jn.15:10.)

D. Jesus is one
with His Father:

Jn.10:30  I & My Father are one

Jn.10:38b                The
Father is in Me, & I in Him

Jn.14:9,10a             He
that hath seen Me hath seen the Father

E. Jesus is
God, He is one with the Father:

Isa.9:6     A child is
born...& His name shall be called...the mighty God, the everlasting Father,
the Prince of Peace

Jn.8:56-58               Before
Abraham was, I am (Compare w/ Exo.3:6,13,14)

Jn.20:28,29             Thomas
said unto Him, "My Lord & my God" [Jesus then commended
him for believing]

Col.3:11  Christ is all, & in all

1Tim.3:16               God
was manifest in the flesh

Heb.1:8   Unto the Son He saith, Thy
throne, O God, is for ever

Rev.1:8,11a;
22:12,13            I
am Alpha & Omega, the beginning & the ending...which is, & which
was...the Almighty (Compare w/ Isa.44:6)

F. Yet they are
distinct, individual personalities:

1Jn.5:7,8 There are three that bear record in Heaven, the
Father, the Word, & the Holy Ghost: & these three are one

G. God the Father
has preeminence:
