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.

Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever
58-0223 §31
...home through this week, study this where I am going to quote from, you, just now, because time won't permit me to read it all in these next about ten minutes. Notice, when Jesus was here and on earth after He received the Father into Himself... For we truly believe, and I'm sure that, you southern people, here believe that God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself, that He was Divine. A lady sometime ago said to me, "He was just a prophet." Well, if He's just a prophet, we're all lost. He was Deity: God...
Christ is identified the same in all generations
64-0415 §27
Now, we find in here, some think, "He was a philosopher." He was a philosopher. There's no doubt about that. He... But He was more than a philosopher. Some of them thought Him to be "a prophet." He, He was a prophet. True. The Bible said He was. But He was more than a prophet. Some of them said, "He was a teacher. 'Never a man taught like this.'" He was a teacher, but He was still more than a teacher. See? Some of them say, "He was a good man." But He was more than a good man. He was a good man, but He was more tha...
The Greatest Gift in the Bible
57-0811A §8
And he's set in your body, comes from a little cell that has been bruised, or usually, and the little cell backslides and can sometimes cause your life. That's a big word for a Baptist to say, "a backslider," isn't it? But just the same, when a cell backslides, it'll interrupt every cell in your body, if the devil can get into that little cell. Now, the devil cannot create. He cannot create one thing. He can only pervert what God has already created, see. Sin is righteousness perverted, see. Sin is nothing... The d...
We would see Jesus
57-0226 §28
See, God's alone in creation. The devil can't create. If you say the devil can heal, then you make him a creator, then he's coequal with God. Only God alone can create. The devil can only pervert what's already created. What is unrighteousness? Is righteousness perverted. You get it? Righteousness perverted... It's right for a man to live ... take his wife, and be husband and wife, to live that way. But with some other woman who could do the same act, it would be righteousness perverted, which would sin. And everyt...
God keeps His Word
57-0120E §31
"I believe that Jesus is the Son of God. I believe that in His body He was a man. He was born of a woman, just like I was. But His blood was not of a woman; it was of God. And Jehovah God, the Logos, who brood over the earth, in my message this morning, and brood the first man out of the dust of the earth, overshadowed Mary, and brood over her to fulfill His Word, and created the blood cell that brought forth the Son of the living God. I believe in a body He was man. I believe in His soul He was God. He was God's m...
