    Is Jesus Christ God?

    After reading through a post discussing who Jesus is and seeing that some believe He is a created being by God, some believe He is God, and some just say He is God's Son so He cannot be God Himself, I would just like to share my understanding on who Jesus is. First of all, a lot of the discussion has been centered on John Chapter 1 which I agree shows not only the deity of Jesus, but also shows that He is God manifested in the flesh. But what I would like to use instead is Matthew Chapter 1.

    Matthew Chapter 1 can be broken into two sections, Verses 1 through 17 prove that Jesus Christ literally and legally fulfills the Abrahamic and Davidic covenant for the Jews. And then the second section, Matthew 1:18-25 gives us the ancestry of the Christ. The entire ancestry table is found in Matthew 1:1-17. The second section gives us the ancestry of the Christ explained. In simpler terms, these two sections would be called "The birth of Christ," and "The birth of Christ explained."

    Matthew 1:1 would be the caption or title. It is entitled the ancestry, not the genealogy. The word for genealogy is not used in Verse 1. And there is a reason for that. The word for genealogy in the Greek text is GENEALOGIA. But the word used in Verse 1 is GENESIS, pronounced Gen-ay-sees, with the "G" sound as in Girl. The word "generation" in Verse 1 is the Greek word GENESIS. It is not the word for birth.

    Matthew is purposely avoiding the word for birth. What Matthew is saying here is that this is the scroll of the origin of the Christ. Why is this important? Well, what Matthew is presenting here fits perfectly to what John said in John 1:14 that "The word became flesh and dwelt among us." You see, Jesus was not born. He became flesh. He has always been in existence. This is why Matthew avoids using the word for birth. He is presenting to us the origin of the Christ.

    Jesse are you saying that Jesus was not born like a regular Child....He was just made flesh...There was no gestation?..The sperm that initiated her pregnancy was the living Word of God..The very seed of God.

    .....But he was made of a woman made under the law.... Gal 4: 4 .... The only difference was her gestation, Her conception was purly the result of the living Word of God.....Not the written word but the living Word....Meaning a spiritual seed....The very seed of God...Thus he was truly an Absolute Son....Not a token son like adam....That 2 nd man is the Lord from heaven...Jesus had to come via a seed an incorruptible seed...Sown in Mary..

    .....And Christ has to be formed in us which is the Child of PROMISE the H.G. A LIVING BEING has to be born in us but he is spirit.

    ...As that which is born of the SPIRIT IS SPIRIT which is our new innerman the H.G....When he breathe on them they were impregnated by his seed his Words....Being born again of an incorruptible seed etc...Even by the words of God that liveth...the living words of God....

    But Jesse i believe that soon we will see cars going down the FREEWAY....With bumber stickers saying i am with Child of the H.G....Simply b/c we are gonna see God pouring out of his spirit on all flesh....Its gonna happen....Jeremiah saw all men in travail and birth pains....Jesus asked who is my Mother then he said them that hear my Words and keeps...I think we will all birth a BABY CHRIST...The Son of man...ok gbu

    This would explain the words begotten Son. Begotten from the Genesis. Begotten from all eternity!

    Thank you for your insight. Before Abraham was I AM.

    Fred,

    Amen! Begotten meaning the only unique one from the Father. And John 8:38 is a great verse that you shared. Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. Literally, "Before Abraham was in existence, I AM in existence!" Before Abraham was in existence, I was already in existence, and always had been. The "I AM" of the Old Testament!

    Thank you!
