Jesus is truly God manifested in the flesh. Jesus is clearly understood to be the only wise God and our Savior revealed to Jude chapter 1 vs 25. Here, Jude ascribes to Jesus attributes befitting of God himself glory, majesty, dominion, and power. Jesus was able to tell the seventy two in Luke the 10th chapter verse 17 that he beheld Satan fall from heaven as lightning because of his preeminence. And yes, the Word did become flesh and dwelt among us as stated in the Gospel of John chapter 1verse 14. The disciples were not yet filled with power from on High because God in the flesh was present with them so they could not yet fully understand from a natural mindset who Jesus really was.

But Jesus assured them that the comforter (Holy Spirit) who he would send in his name, who lead and guide them in all truth.

    “On the Incarnation” by Athanasius is an in depth explanation of who Christ is, what He came to do, how that was accomplished, and what the effects are of that in the world today. Athanasius makes an in depth case for Christ being fully God and fully man. He boldly argues for it, responding to the Jews, Gentiles, and heretics of the day. What is not as overtly emphasized, but equally important, is the role of the Trinity. Indeed, this book shows that the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are one God, yet they each have important roles to play in the process of salvation.…

The authors build the narratives around the Father-Son relationship of God and Jesus because of how much of an impact God’s sacrifice has on Jesus’ ministry. “God so loved the world that he gave his only Son, so that everyone who believes in him may not perish but may have eternal life” (John 3:16). Throughout the book of John, Jesus repeatedly says that he is the Son of God, the Son of Man, and God. If Jesus is both the Son of God and God, then it follows that God himself is the Son of Man as well.…

The book of John begins, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1:1).…
