1. He is God• Perhaps this sounds elementary, but
there are some who believe in Jesus, but not as God in the flesh
• Some believe He is just a god, a prophet or simply a good man
• According to Jesus, it matters what we believe about Him (Matt. 16:16)
![Page 8: John 3:16 (NKJV) 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062317/5a4d1b3f7f8b9ab0599a00e7/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
1. He is God• “In the beginning was the Word…and the
Word was God” (Jn. 1:1)
• “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us…” (Jn. 1:14)
• Jesus is exactly who He claimed to be, and that is God in the flesh!

1. He is God• Even God referred to Jesus as His Son
(Matt. 3:17)
• Jesus said that if we do not believe in Him as God’s Son, then we will die in our sins (Jn. 8:24)
• Believing in Jesus means believing in His deity

2. He fulfilled prophecy• Those who do not believe that Jesus is
God’s Son most likely do not believe that He was the fulfiller of OT prophecy
• There are well over 300 prophecies concerning the Messiah who was to come
• Jesus fulfilled every one of those prophecies
![Page 11: John 3:16 (NKJV) 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062317/5a4d1b3f7f8b9ab0599a00e7/html5/thumbnails/11.jpg)
2. He fulfilled prophecy• Isaiah 7:14 prophesies specifics about His
birth
• Details about His death were prophesied about in Isaiah 53
• We see in Luke 4:16-21 that Jesus read from Isaiah 61:1-2 and told all that it was a prophecy concerning Him

3. He died sinless for our sins• If one believes that Jesus was simply a
prophet or just a man, then they would not believe that He was a sinless sacrifice
• “Behold! The Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world!” (Jn. 1:29)
• Paul told Timothy that Jesus came to save sinners (I Tim. 1:15)
![Page 13: John 3:16 (NKJV) 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whosoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting](https://reader036.vdocuments.site/reader036/viewer/2022062317/5a4d1b3f7f8b9ab0599a00e7/html5/thumbnails/13.jpg)
3. He died sinless for our sins• We are redeemed “with the precious
blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot” (I Pet. 1:19)
• “For Christ also suffered once for sins, the just for the unjust, that He might bring us to God…” (I Pet. 3:18)
• Do you believe that Jesus was w/o spot?
