This is another Scripture that proves Jesus is God?

John 14:31, but, in order for the world to know that I love the Father, even as the Father has given me commandment [to do], so I am doing. Get up, let us go from here

So this is God talking about himself, giving himself a new commandment???

    Easy Jesus is not God, He is in fact the son of God. And Here is the proof

    PROOF: That Jesus is the Son of GOD

    Is Jesus God?

    John 17:3 "This means everlasting life, their taking in knowledge of you, the only true God (Who alone art truly God), and of the one whom you sent forth, Jesus Christ."

    Notice in this verse that Jesus referred not to himself but to his father in the heavens as the only true God

    John20:17 "Jesus said to her: “Stop clinging to me. For I have not yet ascended to the Father. But be on your way to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and YOUR Father and to my God and YOUR God."

    Jesus made this comment soon after his Resurrection, to the resurrected Jesus the Father was God, Just as the Father was Mary Magdalene's God. Interestingly, not once in Scripture do we find the Father addressing the Son as 'my God'. Only Jesus referring to him as the one Father and the one God.

    Many people do feel that John 1:1 proves that Jesus and God are the same in a trinity. But does it Really?

    John 1:1 " In [the] beginning the Word was, and the Word was with God, and the Word was a god"

    The text is not saying that the Word (Jesus) was the same as the God with whom he was but, rather, that the Word was godlike, divine, a god. What did the apostle John mean when he wrote John 1:1? Did he mean that Jesus is himself God or perhaps that Jesus is one God with the Father? In the same chapter Verse 8 John wrote: "No man has seen God at any time; the only-begotten god (Or Jesus the son of God) who is in the bosom [position] with the Father is the one that has explained him.(Or made him known)"

    Isaiah 9:6 "For there has been a child born to us, there has been a son given to us; and the princely rule will come to be upon his shoulder. And his name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace." also prophetically describes Jesus as “Mighty God,” but not as the Almighty God. All of this is in harmony with Jesus’ being described as “a god,” or “divine,” at John 1:1

    The context helps us to draw the right conclusion from this. Shortly before Jesus’ death, Thomas had heard Jesus’ prayer in which he addressed his Father as “the only true God" Example is John 17:3. After Jesus’ resurrection Jesus had sent a message to his apostles, including Thomas, in which he had said: “I am ascending . . . to my God and your God.” (John 20:17) After recording what Thomas said when he actually saw and touched the resurrected Christ, the apostle John stated: “These are written that you may believe that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of God, and that believing you may have life in his name.” (John 20:31,) So, if anyone has concluded from Thomas’ exclamation that Jesus is himself “the only true God” or that Jesus is a Trinitarian “God the Son,” he needs to look again at what Jesus himself said (vs. 17) and at the conclusion that is clearly stated by the apostle John (vs. 31).

    Ho dear!

    A verse lifted out of context again.

    If you go back a few verses you will see that Jesus is talking to his disciples and he makes it quite clear that God is his father and that they are not equal.

    John 14:28-31 KJV

    28 Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.

    29 And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe.

    30 Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me.

    31 But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.

    To understand the commandment Jesus refers to you will have to read and understand the Gospel message.

    Jesus said many times that God sent him so how could he be God?

    Jesus always prayed to God and said God was the only true God in John 17:3 so how could he be God?

    Jesus sits on the right hand of God, so how could he be God?

    The bible says that Jesus is our mediator between God and men. A mediator is a third person so how could he be both God and a mediator.

    Jesus also said that his Father is also his God in John 20:17.

    Jesus is who he said he is ..The Son of God.

    god the father, Son and Holy Spirit. 3 in one. it is thesame God yet cutting-edge as Father (God Almighty), son Jesus and the Spirit. Am uncertain how else to interrupt this down for you. examine your bible and ask the Holy Spirit for understanding. one element i will inform you, till the international ends, guy shall no longer be waiting to totally understand the main suitable nature of God....for this reason he's God.

    Jesus is God.

    But clearly the bible shows the Father as a person.

    Jesus heavenly person as a person.

    Both God with one cause.

    Bible shows Father called YHWH and is referenced

    to Jesus also in OT prophecies and in NT.

    YHWH being descriptive name of God being the Father,

    Son and Holy Spirit as one God.
