Is Jesus Fully God, Fully Man, or a Created Being?
1) Direct answer
Jesus is God manifested in flesh—truly God and truly man. He is not a created being.
2) Scriptural explanation
- The Bible says, “God was manifested in the flesh” (1 Timothy 3:16). Not a second person—God Himself revealed in a human body.
- “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God … and the Word was made flesh” (John 1:1,14). The One who was God became flesh—Jesus Christ.
- “In him dwelleth all the fulness of the Godhead bodily” (Colossians 2:9). Not a part of God, but the fullness.
- “They shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us” (Matthew 1:23).
- “By him were all things created” (Colossians 1:16). The Creator cannot be a created being.
- He truly became man: “Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same” (Hebrews 2:14). He was born of a virgin: “That holy thing … shall be called the Son of God” (Luke 1:35).
- The Scripture even says the church was purchased “with [God’s] own blood” (Acts 20:28). God had blood only when He dwelt in Jesus Christ.
3) Simple clarifying logic
- Now notice: as to His flesh, He was a man—He hungered, slept, and suffered. As to His Spirit, He is God—He forgave sins, stilled the storm, received worship, and is the Creator.
- If He were a created being, how could all things be created by Him? If He were only a man, how could God call His blood “His own”?
- It’s not three Gods. The one God was above us as Father, came among us in the Son, and now dwells in us as the Holy Spirit. The Sonship refers to the body that was born; the life inside that body was God Himself.
4) Reinforcing statement
Jesus Christ is the one true God revealed in human flesh—fully God dwelling in a real, human life—our Redeemer, not a creature.

The deity of Jesus Christ
49-1225 §54
Today, they're getting passes and everything to go up to the--to the cradle, up to the place where He was born, the same manger. But, friends, it's not up there, where He was born, it's right here where He was born; God has brought Him down to every one of us, and His living Being is living in us. Oh, the Creator, the thing that created the world, and created the heavens, created the earth, created man, is right in every individual that's got the baptism of the Holy Ghost today. That's the thing. That's the secret....
Go wake Jesus
63-1103 §56
They should have known that He was God that created the winds and the waves. See, God created the wind. Yes. That's air. God created the water. Yes. That's the H_O. He created that. But you see what it is, the devil got into that wind, and then the devil come to something else and got into it. And that caused the storm. And that's the way it is with believers sometimes. They let down the bars to unbelief, and then Satan comes in in a whirlwind, see--causes fusses, stews, and arguments and everything. That is the de...
Christ is the mystery of God revealed
63-0728 §78
But, what He wanted to do, He loved Fatherhood, for He was a Father. And the only way that He could express it was to become a Son of man. That's the reason Jesus kept saying, "The Son of man." See, they didn't know what He was talking about, many of them. But now, you get it? He wanted to express Himself. That was one of His great threefold purposes---was to express Himself, identify Himself with human beings, to reveal Himself in Christ.
Having conferences
60-0608 §48
So Moses had this Red Sea conference, received orders, and marched on. There was another conference I like. I got a dozen of them wrote down here, but I want to hurry to one now. There was a Gethsemane conference one time, where Jesus as a man... Jesus was the Son of God, created Son of God. God overshadowed Mary and created a blood cell in her that brought forth the Son, Christ Jesus, and God came down and dwelt in Him. "In Him was the fullness of the Godhead bodily." I Timothy 3:16 said, "Without controversy grea...
An Exposition Of The Seven Church Ages
CAB 5:E-108
But this freedom from persecution and death was not as magnanimous as it first appeared. Constantine was now the patron. As a patron his interest was somewhat more than that of an observer, for he decided that the church needed his help in her affairs. He had seen them disagreeing over various matters, one of which involved Arius, Bishop of Alexander, who taught his adherents that Jesus was not truly God but a lesser being, having been created by God. The Western Church held the opposite view, believing that Jesus...
