10. The Deity of Christ


© John L. Hoh, Jr.

Once the Virgin Birth is denied, the next logical step is denying the divinity of our Lord. He becames just another person, like you and me. He can no longer be our Savior but an upright person whose example we can follow. We are left to work out our own salvation, just as Christ worked out his "salvation."

In the following passages, briefly explain how the writers of Holy Scripture tell us of Christ's deity.

Matthew 1:18,20--

Matthew 4:1-11/Luke 4:1-13--

Matthew 8:23-27/Mark 4:35-41--

Matthew 16:16--

Matthew 22:41-45/Mark 12:35-37/Luke 20:41-44--

Mark 10:17,18--

Luke 1:30-33--

Luke 2:49--

Luke 3:22,38--

Luke 4:34--

Luke 5:8,21-26--

Luke 7:20-23--

For Discussion:

How does denying the deity of Christ rob us of comfort and assurance?

Why did Jesus have to be true God?

What is our salvation if we deny the deity of Christ?
