No, I'm just pointing out a few of the many things the Bible says that teach us who Jesus is. It's up to you to accept them or not.
In Hebrew and Aramaic, the term "son of" is an idiom that means "authentic" or "the very (thing)" for whatever thing it is attached to. Jesus also said himself to be the Son of Man, because he was both authentically God and man.
The men who lived with him most closely when he walked the planet recognized him to be God:
"Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!” Jesus said to him, “Because you have seen Me, have you believed? Blessed are those who did not see, and yet believed.”
- John 20:28-29
As I've tried to show you with all these Scriptures, Jesus himself claims to be God; his enemies recognized that he claimed to be God, which is why they killed him; his followers recognized him to be God, and the writers of the New Testament knew he is God.
"...whose are the fathers, and from whom is the Christ according to the flesh, who is God over all, blessed forever. Amen."
- Romans 9:5
"God, having spoken long ago to the fathers in the prophets in many portions and in many ways, in these last days spoke to us in His Son, whom He appointed heir of all things, through whom also He made the worlds, who is the radiance of His glory and the exact representation of His nature, and upholds all things by the word of His power; who, having accomplished cleansing for sins, sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, having become so much better than the angels, as He has inherited a more excellent name than they."
- Hebrews 1:1-4
Lord Jesus, please open this fren's eyes to see you for who you are...🙏🏻🫂💜😄
