The Deity Of Christ And Other Sermons

How is Jesus also God? Long ago, Jesus asked his disciples, “Who do you say that I am?” It's a question everyone must answer, and we need Scripture to tell us how. The Deity of Christ is a biblical defense of Jesus’ divinity—the cornerstone of Christian doctrine. From over a dozen New Testament texts, pastor and theologian John MacArthur explores how Jesus is God, and why it matters. This study will deepen your knowledge of Christ, and thus your love for Him, fortifying your will and increasing your worship. No man in history is more perplexing or compelling than Jesus Christ—because no other man is also God. Let this book from bestselling author John MacArthur guide you deep into the profound truths of Christ.

Excerpt from The Deity of Christ: A Sermon Delivered July 31, 1810, Before the Haverhill Association, and Published at Their Request The subject which this passage brings to view, is most interesting. In the great business of religion, we have much, very much to do with Jesus Christ. We shall all soon appear before him, as our final Judge. To have some just knowledge of him, then, must be of infinite mo ment. If Christ be a creature, those who treat him as God, are chargeable with idolatry. This all allow. If he be God, are those who degrade him to the level ofa mere creature, in no danger of impiety - Let us, my brethren, feel the solemnity of the subject. Let us contemplate it with profoundest seriousness and humility. And may the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father ofglory, give as the Spirit of wisdom and revelation, in the knowledge of him self, and of his dear Son!
