Scripture reveals that Jesus is not merely a good teacher or prophet — He is fully God, eternally existent, the Creator of all things who stepped into His own creation.
Scripture on John 11
John 1:1
New Testament
"In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God."
John 1:14
New Testament
"The Word became flesh and made his dwelling among us. We have seen his glory, the glory of the one and only Son, who came from the Father, full of grace and truth."
Colossians 1:15-17
New Testament
"The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him. He is before all things, and in him all things hold together."
Hebrews 1:3
New Testament
"The Son is the radiance of God's glory and the exact representation of his being, sustaining all things by his powerful word. After he had provided purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty in heaven."
Isaiah 9:6

"For to us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace."
The Bottom Line
Jesus didn't become God at His birth — He has always been God, and He became human to save you.

Prayer
Jesus taught us to come boldly to the Father (Hebrews 4:16).
Father, You sent Your Son — not an angel, not a messenger, but God Himself in flesh. I confess I sometimes treat Jesus like a good example instead of my Creator and Savior. Open my eyes to see His glory. Help me live today knowing that the One who holds galaxies together also holds me. I surrender my small view of Jesus for the truth of who He really is. In Jesus' name, Amen.
