The Person of Jesus-The Deity of Christ Part 3

[0:00] Hallelujah! We thank God you've tuned into this message by David Entry at Karis Church. No hand can help you with the fulfillment of your destiny but the Word of God.

[0:11] May God's hand align you further into your destiny through this word. When it comes to Christianity, what you feel is not as important as what you know.

[0:23] Christianity is the religion, if I should call it religion, that is heavily embedded in data. Christianity only works with data. More than 60% of scripture is history.

[0:39] Nothing can be done about history. How many of you know that? Nothing can be done about history. So it's starting to tell us that much of our Christian life is lived effectively by looking back. Looking back on the data. And the data is pointing to Jesus.

[0:55] So our confidence in Jesus is more scientific than emotive. What makes you believe in Jesus? Jesus is not God because Christians want to make him God.

[1:07] Christians say he's God because he is God. That's why Christians say he's God. The Bible is not the Word of God because we say he's the Word of God. We say he's the Word of God because he's the Word of God.

[1:18] The Bible is the Word of God. That's why we say he's the Word of God. And it's not imaginations. We are not projecting imaginations or human opinion or speculations to make the scripture the Word of God.

[1:32] It is deductions and inductions, scientific proofs that leaves you with no choice but to know that it's the Word of God. So if you can approach it scientifically and do research, you'll be caught in a corner.

[1:49] Just like it's so unscientific to say human beings, we are grown up gems. There was a big bank that was supposed to create chaos.

[2:01] And the bank created order. That's very mad. That's unintelligent. The Bible says that because men are in darkness.

[2:12] John 3, 19. When the light came, they did not want the light. Why? Because it says that, and this is their condemnation, that light has come into the world. And men love darkness rather than light.

[2:24] Because there is evil deeds. So atheism is an evil heart that makes you say, I don't believe God exists. It's not an intellectual mind. Because intellectual mind will let you know that God actually exists.

[2:37] But an evil heart will make you determine that I don't care. It doesn't exist. And you convince yourself. The Bible says that God gave them to delusion. Christianity is so scientific. If your faith is not built on facts, I'm telling you, you will survive the harshness of time.

[2:54] If your faith, because when this is built on facts, you can't deny facts. You can't deny facts. It doesn't matter how a father loves the son. If later on paternity test says, chose to prove that that's not his son.

[3:08] He can love the boy, but he can't deny it. Because the evidence is saying that, oh God, that's not your son. It's important to understand that it's full of facts.

[3:19] Now, why am I saying all these things? I'm leading to somewhere. If we say, Jesus is God, Jesus is man, what will be the proof? We have to go to scripture.

[3:30] Islam says they believe in Jesus. And that Jesus didn't die. The Islamic God took him and went and hid him somewhere. And one day, one day, he's going to come back and return.

[3:43] He's going to come back. He's going to return to punish Christians and let them know that they've been following the wrong God. Islamic Jesus that is coming is the Christian antichrist.

[3:55] If they describe what the second coming of their Jesus is coming to do, it is the biblical description of an antichrist. You cannot claim spiritual growth without having biblical facts.

[4:10] We are talking about 2 Timothy 4, verse 1. Sorry, verse 2. Verse 2 says, what's the first few words there? Preach the word. Three words. First three words. Preach the word.

[4:21] Oh, are you afraid? Preach the word. Please say it loud. That is scripture. Preach the word. It's very clear there. Preach the word. Preach the word. Preach the word.

[4:32] That is why, that is why, when you are supposed to preach to people, don't be thinking about your antichrist and your skill. No, as long as you can let the word speak, discipleship can be generated.

[4:50] Many churches that are not discipling, you can't disciple people outside of scripture. So, Jesus puts it in Matthew chapter 28, verse 20.

[5:01] He says, baptizing them, teaching them, teaching them to observe how many things. Whatsoever I have commanded, that's how discipleship happens.

[5:12] He said, go into the world and make disciples. Baptizing them. And he said, go into the world, make disciples of the old age, baptize. Any practice in any culture that cannot cross over to another culture is not Christian.

[5:27] So, there are a lot of things that are done in maybe certain ethnic churches outside of UK that will not be accepted when it comes to UK or the West.

[5:41] Because it's very contrary to the Western culture. But if it's pure Christianity, then it casts across everywhere. Christianity has not got to do with style.

[5:52] What makes a church a true church of God is that one major mark of a true church of Christ is that it must be biblical. It must be biblical. And so, he said to Timothy, your job is to preach nothing.

[6:08] Nothing. The pulpit is not meant for political speeches. The pulpit is not meant for therapy sessions.

[6:20] The pulpit is not meant for worldly philosophy. The pulpit is not meant for self-help advice. The pulpit is not meant for theological speculations.

[6:34] The pulpit is not meant for motivational talk. The pulpit is meant for only one thing. Preaching of the word. He said, preach the word.

[6:48] In spite of changing times and cultures. Forget about the changing times. What is changing habits? Sometimes people will not receive it. It's not your business.

[7:00] It's not your business who receives it or who doesn't receive it. Just preach the word. They like it. It doesn't matter. Just preach. Because he said, we preach Christ crucified to the Jews.

[7:13] To the Jews, a stumbling block. To the Greeks, foolishness. But to those who are called. Verse 23. Both Jews and Greeks. Just preach the word. Those of you who want to be pastors, don't copy style.

[7:26] Bury yourself developing your scriptural dexterity. Oh, I heard a great man of God say this and he blessed me so much. He says that when you are preaching the word, make sure.

[7:40] When you are preaching to the congregation of God, make sure one finger is on the Bible. At all times. At all times. At all times. At all times. As you are speaking. Doesn't matter what you do.

[7:51] Make sure one finger and just in case you need the hand for a gesture. You lift the hand, put the other one there. And make sure. Make sure. Because the scripture. I like the statement. I was studying at it.

[8:02] I came across the stage. The pulpit is the throne of God's word. Did you understand that statement? It's very heavy. The pulpit is the throne of the word.

[8:13] The word must ring. The pulpit. The pulpit. The pulpit. The pulpit. The pulpit. That's the only way you can have Christians maturing. Christians fed. Christianity spreading.

[8:24] Christianity rises and falls based on how the pulpit is used. It is not the pastor's dressing. Some of you.

[8:35] Tell that your auntie. In that traditional church. They are asking us. How is it that we have so many youth? It's not the dressing. It's not the style. But it's the word. Because we saw in 2 Timothy chapter 4 verse 2.

[8:47] I can't hear you. We saw in 2 Timothy chapter 4 verse 2. We saw in 2 Timothy chapter 4 verse 2. We saw in 2 Timothy chapter 4 verse 2. We saw in 2 Timothy chapter 4 verse 2. We saw in 2 Timothy chapter 4 verse 2.

[8:58] We saw in 2 Timothy chapter 4 verse 2. We saw in 2 Timothy chapter 4 verse 2. We saw in 2 Timothy chapter 4 verse 2. We saw in 2 Timothy chapter 4 verse 2. That's all. He didn't speculate or maybe, okay, just preach a little. He said, preach the word. The sufficiency of scripture.

[9:10] The scripture is enough to do the job of God. Not the word plus something. Not the word plus style. Preach the word.

[9:21] Preach the word. What makes preaching powerful? What makes preaching powerful is the gospel in it. It is not our useless preaching that makes the gospel powerful.

[9:32] It's the gospel in our preaching that makes, it's the gospel content. The gospel content. The gospel content. The word content.

[9:44] Every good preaching, sir, every good preaching is supposed to be biblical. It's supposed to be biblical. It doesn't matter what anybody is saying.

[9:55] Their style is not important. Their screaming is not important. People have different ways of presenting. You can make sure as you are doing all the who, ha, it's only the where.

[10:06] You're preaching. What you are saying is what the word is saying. And what you mean is what the word means. And what you are focusing on is what the word is focusing on. I wish pastors can rise to know this.

[10:19] So then if you want to be effective pastor, it means that you give yourself to scripture. Steady the word. He told Timothy, steady to show yourself approved unto God. A man, a workman that needs not to be ashamed.

[10:31] Rightly dividing the word of truth. It takes steadies and prayer. Because prayer goes with preaching. Preaching goes with prayer. If you leave one, it won't work.

[10:42] Because it said, flesh and blood has not revealed this unto you. Excuse me. If you don't have appetite for the word of God, I doubt if we have any help for you.

[10:55] I won't leave the word to preach what you want to hear. I heard a man of God say, if you have calf worshippers, people who desire to worship golden calf, there will always be a ministerial golden calf maker somewhere around the corner.

[11:12] Oh yeah. Oh yeah. There will not be platform for false teachers if there is not the deed, if there will be itchy, itchy, itchy, itchy ears in the church.

[11:25] I wish somebody would help me to tell the West Africans, the Ghanis in Ghana, that stop making noise about false teachers and false prophets and let the true preachers focus on preaching the word.

[11:43] When Christians are fed with the word and they have appetite with the word, false prophets are not a threat. They don't have an appetite for what false teachers will teach. But if they don't know the word and they have itchy ears, some of the things we are feeding church members is actually pandering towards itchy ears.

[12:03] They want things that are very tantalizing. Their puppets is the throne of the word. It's not so much about that, but it's about his personal experience.

[12:13] So you see the way, oh, somebody, and then I was praying and the Lord came to me and we have a developing... What are some of the new age words that are coming today?

[12:25] Energy. Energy. Yes. If it manifests, manifest, energy, chanting, we are chanting. Chanting is not a biblical word.

[12:36] At all. It doesn't matter. We speak in tongues. We don't chant. Hey. We don't chant. We speak in tongues. There's a difference between speaking in tongues and chanting. Put that nonsense music aside.

[12:48] Stop chanting and praying in tongues. The clear sign of true church is the church must be biblical. When we gather as a church, only thing that must dominate in our midst, not the dancings.

[13:06] Sometimes you're wondering what is the place of all these things that have been introduced into church services. I'm not saying it's wrong, but we have to start thinking. We have to start thinking biblically.

[13:19] What is the place of dance? Is it called? What is it? Choreography or something like that. I'm not against it, but I'm wondering. I'm just wondering. Why?

[13:29] Why? If there's enough... Watch this. If there's enough space for the teaching of pure word, a lot of other things must back off.

[13:42] Many places don't teach the word. So we have to bring other things. Listen. Many people in our generation are looking for pulpit entertainment.

[13:55] Yeah. Not biblical preaching. They want pulpit entertainment. Pulpit entertainment. Instead of Bible preaching or biblical teachings.

[14:10] 2 Timothy 4, verse 2. Preach for us! 2 Timothy 4, verse 2. Preach for us!

[14:22] You're talking about revival? That is the only thing that can push revival into the territories of the enemy. That's the only thing. That's the only thing.

[14:34] Anywhere Christianity begins to become carnal, become watered down, Islam begins to move there quickly. Begins to move there quickly. To go and challenge because when and so we are word-based, we can't stand onslaught from the enemy or all those opinions.

[14:52] They don't work miracles. They don't do... It's just challenging. Why are you saying God is straight? Yeah. Why are you saying God is straight? You see? And they will tell you the Bible is not the word of God. So if you don't have spiritual data...

[15:04] Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. So, Jesus had to ask them a question of cognition. You have to know something.

[15:15] He said, who do men see? And who do you? You have to know something. And he said in the verse 18, upon this rock, this understanding is what Christianity is built on.

[15:29] Christianity is built on the revelation of Jesus. And when we talk about revelation, it's not like you dreamt and you have to say, please, move out from the realm of speculations. Oh, God, you know, you never know.

[15:42] Maybe God is speaking to him. You can't say God is not speaking to him. Is that not how all the major religions were started? God's personal... God spoke to them personally, the leaders.

[15:54] Leaders personally. A demon appeared to them, but they thought it was God. There is only one true way to the Father.

[16:05] It's through Jesus Christ described in the scripture. Watch this. Every other way is satanic. It doesn't lead to the Father. It's leading somewhere else.

[16:18] That's why we have to be too true to the world. When we read the scripture, when I'm teaching, I must teach the scripture and then not what the scripture just is saying, what the scripture means by what he said.

[16:32] Because I heard the man of God say this in blessedness. The scripture is... God gave... It's not man's opinion about God. The scripture is God's revelation of himself to us.

[16:45] God's revelation of God. So then, if you misinterpret scripture in your preaching, you have misrepresented God. God has been misrepresented.

[16:58] And when you misrepresent God, it leads people... Instead of leading people towards God, it leads people far from God. So somebody says, I'm preaching, it's preaching from the Bible, but it's actually leading people far from God.

[17:13] He said, how shall they call on him of whom they have not believed? How shall they believe on him they have not heard? So, who is telling you what?

[17:24] What you are hearing will determine how you'll be saved. Jesus said, who do men say? I've been teaching and explaining that the Bible tells us when we say Jesus is God, it's not opinion, it's scripture.

[17:40] So, I've given biblical reasons for, biblical evidence for the deity or the divinity of Christ.

[17:51] The same thing. Christ's divinity, Christ's deity. Why are we Christians? We are Christians because Jesus is God. And that is one fact that every false religion never accepts.

[18:06] How do you know a false religion? It doesn't accept that Jesus is God. That's false religion. That's false religion. That's demonic and satanic. It doesn't accept that Jesus is God.

[18:18] And it's the core foundation of Christianity. So, Jesus said, who do men say I am? You are the Christ, the son of the living God.

[18:30] Peter said. So, the Christ, the son of God. Let's all say the son of God. In the past two weeks, I've explained, I've given you a few biblical evidence that point to his deity.

[18:42] And then, I spoke about the divine names, the divine attributes. I spoke about the divine offices and statements that were exclusively made about God in the Old Testament was applied to Jesus as well in the New Testament.

[18:58] Did I speak about evidence five? The way in which the names of God, the Father, and Jesus Christ are coupled together.

[19:09] So, for instance, Matthew chapter 28, verse 19. Go to and teach all nations. Watch this. Baptizing them in the name of the Father, the Son, and the name of the Holy Spirit.

[19:21] His name, the name of Christ is coupled with the name of the Father. It's like they are bundled together. Romans chapter 1, verse 7. Let's see what it says.

[19:32] It says that, to all who are in Rome, beloved of God, called to be seen. Grace to you and peace from God our Father and Lord Jesus Christ. 2 Corinthians chapter 13, verse 14.

[19:45] Look at how the apostolic benediction goes. Let's all say it together. Let's go. Grace of God. All right, let's go. Grace of God. Jesus Christ. The love of God and the communion of the Holy Ghost be with you all.

[19:59] Amen. God and Jesus Christ, God the Father and Jesus Christ, their names are always, in the New Testament, you see how their names are coupled together, pointing to the fact that He, Jesus, is God.

[20:16] Hallelujah. And then, 1 Thessalonians chapter 3, verse 18. 1 Thessalonians chapter 3, verse 18. What does it say? To the end, He may establish your hearts unblameable in holiness before God, even our Father, at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ with all the saints.

[20:37] Even our Father, the coming of the Lord. When you study the Bible, it's always you can see Jesus and the Father, Jesus and the Father, and then sometimes the Holy Spirit, but Jesus and the Father is born together. Amen.

[20:48] Amen. I think you would like this one. How about John 1-1? Let's all read the other. Let's go. In the beginning of the Word, and the Lord of the Father, and the Lord of the Son.

[21:00] So, and we all know that the Word is Christ. And so, it's very obvious that it's pointing to the deity of Jesus Christ. And then, evidence number 6.

[21:13] When the apostles, you remember in, I think, Acts chapter 14, they healed the cripple at Lystra, and the people, the priest of Jupiter, he brought a cow to come and sacrifice.

[21:26] They said, the gods have come down to us in human flesh. They said, hey, hey, hey, hey, gods have come, oh, guys, come, come. So, in the speech of the Lycanians, the gods have come down to us in human likeness, the likeness of men.

[21:41] And then, so, they called Barnabas, Jupiter, and Paul, Mercurius, or, I think NIV uses the word, Hermes. Hermes is God, you know, so Hermes.

[21:52] And Barnabas, they called Zeus, and Paul, Hermes, because he was the chief speaker. Look at the next verse. And the priest of Jupiter, which was before the city, brought oxen and gallants onto the gates and would have done sacrifice with the people because the gods have come.

[22:11] Now, we've been waiting for the manifestation of the gods. They have showed up. So, they are coming to sacrifice. And Paul and Silas ripped their clothes and said, stop this! No! They were running, but please!

[22:23] Don't do this! Says, he says, says, why do you do this? Why do ye these things? We are also men of like passions with you and preach that you should turn from these vanities onto the living God which made them that things we are telling you to turn away from this, what you are coming to do to us?

[22:42] But, this tells you how vehemently the apostles rejected worship. Anytime an angel appears to anybody in the scripture and they worship, the angel says, no!

[22:54] Don't worship me! Angels reject worship. So, those places you go and they are calling on angels who will worship you is demons because godly angels reject worship. Godly angels reject worship.

[23:07] and so, the angels rejected worship. The apostles rejected worship. Peter said, no, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, don't, when he went to Cornelius or something like that, they said, no, don't worship me.

[23:19] No, don't do it, don't do it. I'm just a man. But, there's not once where anyone worshiped Jesus and Jesus rejected it. Mary said, my lord and my god, sorry, Thomas said, my lord and my god.

[23:38] Mary said, you are the son of god. He fell down before him. In fact, Jairus, Mark chapter 5, he came and fell before Jesus. Jesus then said, no, no, no, no.

[23:49] Jesus never said, don't worship me. Jesus never said, no. Can you imagine when he resurrected from the Jewish man? Jesus is a Jewish man. They don't joke with god. For him to allow another Jewish man to say, my god, my god.

[24:02] And Jesus, they didn't stop it. Why? Because he's God. He's God. So he accepted worship. That's the point I'm making. Jesus accepted worship because only God accepts worship.

[24:17] And Satan wanted it from the beginning. That's why he lost heaven. Satan also said, me too, I have to be worshiped. Let's look at some texts. Matthew chapter 28, verse 9.

[24:30] It says that, and as they went to tell his disciples, Jesus met them saying, oh, oh, and they came and held him by their feet and worshipped him. Jesus said, stop it.

[24:42] Stop it. You can't worship me. No, he didn't say that. He said, you are doing the right thing. You are doing well. Stephen said, I saw, I see heaven's open and the son of man standing on the right hand of the father.

[24:55] In other words, sharing the throne with the father. They ascribe worship to Jesus. In fact, Jesus puts it this way in John chapter 5, verse 23, that all men should honor the son even as a.

[25:07] This was a serious statement. Jesus said, you see the way you are honoring the, you know, when you come to a church like this and you see the way maybe the pastor is respected, sometimes when you become a departmental leader or a, also I made a pastor, you expect, if it was pastor, will you do that?

[25:24] But you are not. Somebody shout, Jesus is God. Jesus is God. And that's what makes us Christians. Our belief in the fact that Jesus is God is not an ideology.

[25:38] It's a fact. It's historically proven. It's a fact. Christianity is built on facts, not feelings. Jesus is God. The seventh evidence is, his own claims of deity.

[25:51] His own self-consciousness. You remember when he was a boy at the age of 12 in the temple. He said, don't you know I have to be about my father's business.

[26:02] He was claiming that he was deity. Because if you're talking about physical, at the age of 12, who taught him that his father is not Joseph? Who taught him that his father is not Joseph?

[26:15] So Mary said, your father and I, Mary came to the boy and he says, the son, his mother said unto him, son, why have thou dealt with us?

[26:27] Behold, thy father and I sought thee sorrowing. Because we are worried looking for you. He said, then look at what he said. He said, how is it that you sought me? Did you not know that I must be about?

[26:38] So which father is this one? Because mother said, you have dad and I are looking for you. And he said, I must be my father. Meanwhile, we all know that he meant God the father.

[26:50] He claimed that he's God's son at the age of 12. When he came and John the Baptist was about to baptize him, John the Baptist, Matthew chapter 3, from verse 15, John the Baptist said, look at, no, do you know John the Baptist was the highest of the prophets?

[27:07] And in Jesus' day, they have not seen the prophets for 400 years. So anybody who was alive in the days of Jesus have never seen how a prophet looks like physically. And suddenly, they've seen one, John the Baptist.

[27:19] That's why he said, when he said, who do men say I am? He said, some say, you are John the Baptist. In fact, that's one of the first, Matthew chapter 16, verse 14. He says that, John was the first on the list.

[27:33] Because he was very exceptional. That's why in John chapter 1 from verse 19, they came to ask him that, who are you? Tell us who you are. He said, I'm not a Christ.

[27:44] Because he was such a unique figure. And so, for such a unique, watch this, for such a unique figure, you come to him and he said, baptize me, because he's baptizing everybody.

[27:55] Jesus said, no, Matthew chapter, verse 15, Jesus answered and said to him, permit me, permit this to be so. For that, it's fitting for us to fulfill all righteousness. Then he allowed him.

[28:06] But look at verse 14. John tried to prevent him, saying, I need to be baptized by you. Jesus didn't say, no, no, no, no, you are wrong.

[28:18] He knew who he was. He accepted it, but he said, we have to do this to fulfill all righteousness. He didn't say, no, no, no, don't say that, I rather need, no. Jesus said, I know you need it.

[28:30] Because I am, I'm bigger than you. I am the God who sent you. So Jesus accepted that height. Because for John the Baptist, the greatest prophet of the Old Testament, to tell you that you are, I'm supposed to be baptized by you.

[28:46] That means that he, he knew who he was. And he didn't reject it. It's someone getting something. Didn't Satan come to him, Matthew and Luke chapter 4, verse 3, Matthew 4, 3, he says that, if you are, the son of God.

[29:01] Do you know what Jesus said? He said, no, no, I'm not. No, he didn't say that. He didn't say that. He said, get behind me. He said, no, man must not live by bread. So this won't work. I won't.

[29:11] He didn't say, no, no, no, no, I am not the son of God. Because he knew, his self-consciousness of who he was. This all points to the fact that he knew. He called the 12, and Bible said, he gave them power over devils.

[29:25] What? He knew he was. He called the 12 disciples, and gave them power. He gave them authority. In fact, he told them that, I saw Satan fall like lightning. He said, I give you power.

[29:38] Luke chapter 10, verse 17. I give you power over all. The 70 returns the Lord, the demons. Verse 18 says that, don't rejoice because Satan is falling like, sorry, I saw Satan fall like lightning.

[29:51] Verse 19. I give you authority to tremble over all serpent and scorpion, and over all the power of the enemy, and nothing. Say, I give you power. Matthew chapter 10. He called them, and gave them authority to heal the sick.

[30:04] Authority to raise the dead. Authority to raise the cripples. Who is this man who is giving other men authority? He knew who he was. The Sermon on the Mount.

[30:16] You know what the Sermon on the Mount? Matthew chapter 5, chapter 6, chapter 7. He was, Bible says from chapter 5, and seeing the multitude, and seeing the multitude, he went up to the mountain, and when he was set, his disciples came on to him, and he opened his mouth and told them, saying, blessed are that.

[30:29] And then towards the verse 28, he said that it is written. Look at verse 27. You have heard that it is said, to those of old, you shall not commit adultery.

[30:40] But I say. Hey, you are coming to correct what has been going on. But I say. And it's not only what, this one I remember it easily, that's why I could tell this one. But he kept saying, it is said, but I say.

[30:54] It is said, but I say. It is said. I'm telling each other, who is this guy? He knew who he was. He knew who he was, and that's why, on the Sermon on the Mount, he could be saying those things.

[31:07] And can you imagine, he look at the, the next point, he look at people, the Jews, and he told them, before Abraham, me. He said, before Abraham, I am.

[31:21] Before Abraham, I am. Jesus said unto them, most assuredly, I say to you. Most assuredly, I say to you.

[31:34] Before Abraham, I am. Not I was. I am. He used the name of God. Ego imi. Ego imi. I am. I am. I am. He knew who he was.

[31:46] Jesus said, that, before Abraham, and he used the, ineffable, ineffable name of God, that Jews, that's why they pick up stones, to want to, look at the next verse.

[31:59] Then they took up stones, to throw at him. But Jesus, had to darken. It's not every time, you have to embrace, attacks. No, it's not Stephen. He hid himself. He hid himself.

[32:10] And it's not spiritual, that he blinded them and vanished. No, he had to hide, to escape. Let me add this one, and I can't. In, in, in Matthew chapter 11, verse 27, he claimed he knew the Father, in a way no one knew.

[32:26] Wow. All things have been delivered to me, by my Father, and no one knows, no one knows the Son, except the Father, nor does anyone know the Father, except the Son, and to whom the Son will reveal, wills to reveal him.

[32:39] He, he, he claimed, I know, I know the Father, in a way no one, no human being knows. He had this, self-consciousness, of who he was. And, um, when you read Matthew, John chapter 14, all the way to chapter 17, you find out how Jesus claimed, or he claims, uh, and had self-consciousness, of his deity.

[33:04] When you read it, you can, when you look at it very carefully, his language, that's why he told, uh, no, so Philip, chapter 14, verse 9, you're asking me the Father, to show you the Father is enough, you're asking, uh, elementary question on the graduation day, he said, I've been with you all this while, I've now come to the end, and you can't, you don't know me.

[33:22] No, that's what he said, he said, show us the Father, and it is enough. King James said, it suffices us. King James, yeah, that one is a nice one. It suffices us. He says, show us the Father, and it's sufficient for us, it's enough for us, new King James.

[33:37] Sure, then Jesus said, Jesus said unto him, have I been with you, so long, and yet, and yet you have, not known me, Philip, this graduation day, you don't know, this is an element, you should have known me from the beginning.

[33:54] But he wasn't asking him, he said, show me the Father. He said, yeah, I'm the Father, I am the Father, I want. Whoever has seen me, has seen the Father. These are the claims, to, to, uh, deity, and his virgin birth, and his resurrection.

[34:09] So, some, one, another proof, every, biblical evidence, that he's God, his virgin birth. I don't believe it. A virgin cannot give birth, to a man, to a boy.

[34:22] A virgin cannot give birth, to a boy. Praise the Lord. And, and, and, and, the fact that, he had, he's, a woman, a human, female woman, gave birth to him, without involvement of a man, that tells you that, he's supernatural in nature.

[34:42] He was human, in every sense of the word, human. This time, I'm talking about, his deity, in every sense of the word. His deity, in every sense.

[34:53] The resurrection, is the last evidence. Evidence. Bible says that, declared to be the son of God. Romans chapter one, verse four. By the resurrection. They killed him, because he said, I'm God.

[35:03] God said, I'll raise him to prove you wrong. God raised him, to prove that, he is the son of God. Thank you for listening, to this message, by David Entry. We pray you have been, strengthened, and enlightened.
