Re: Why Do You Believe Jesus is God?

Jesus has a God, the same God we have. Please add Hebrews 1 to the growing list of references and sources that declare so.
Actually, Jesus Christ is being addressed as God, which only supports and does not conflict with Isaiah 9:6.

Just because he is making a distinction between spirit and flesh in verse 9, doesn't mean He is also making a separation. He makes the distinction throughout the NT, but there is never a separation.

How can there be a separation when He says in Isaiah 42:8 - " I am the Lord/self existent or eternal: that is my name: and my glory will I not give to another, neither my praise to graven images."

He doesn't give His "glory/weight" to anyone.

Consequently, the Jews, traditionally, believed the angels praised God upon his throne, mediated God's revelation to men, attended to God's will, and gave aid to the people of God.

Jesus Christ was superior to angels (Hebrew 1:4), having obtained a more excellent name, not by inheritance does he have a more excellent name, but as God naturally and essentially.... God manifest in the flesh, but He obtains the inheritance by His sufferings.
