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.

Now, I said, "Just to straighten you up, brother," I said, "I'd just like to ask you something: I'm surprised that a Lutheran dean would base his theology upon some sort of an experience." Why, I said, "In the Baptist church in the first year of school we learned to base everything upon the Bible." I said, "All our theology must come off the Bible, and here you're trying to base your theology on an experience." Well now, I said, "To settle it, Jesus said, that Satan cannot cast out Satan. That settles it then. If J...

It's true, as I said the other night, on that little boat He was a man laying there asleep, tired from preaching and healing the sick. He was a man when He was tired and weary and sleepy, till the storm didn't wake Him up. But when He put His foot on the brail of the boat and looked up and said, "Peace, be still," and the winds and the waves hushed, what could speak to nature but God? He was God when He spoke to the winds and waves. He was a man when the pains and agony of the nails in His hand and the crown on His...

Now Jesus plainly... Now listen close. Don't miss it and be just as reverent as you can. Notice, that promise was made just to recur again at the coming of the Lord, see. Now Jesus, being misunderstood, what did they say when they seen Him doing the signs of the Messiah? They said, "He's Beelzebub." Well, now, we know that Beelzebub was a devil. He was the chief of the devils. And otherwise they called Jesus, in perceiving the thoughts in their heart, a fortune-teller, or a mind reader, or something like that, whic...

He created the womb that was in a woman. He had no womb to be born in; he had to borrow a womb. He created the earth and had not a place to be buried in; he had to borrow a hole in the ground to be buried in, Joseph of Arimathea, see. They had to borrow a place, yet He was God ... proved that He was God. Now, you understand? We are not... We are messiahettes, but not that Jesus. He is our Father; we're just anointed with his Spirit, and that's the reason his life... And that gets people. See, if you don't set and t...

Now, if the Lord willing, we're starting tomorrow night on "God in His Word," see. And God said in His Word, "I'm the Lord who heals all your diseases." And there never was a medicine, never was an operation, never was a divine healer, never was anyone else that ever could create and build cells, but God alone. The devil can't do it. The devil can't create. He can only pervert what God has created. It's the devil that gives you the tumor, perverts a cell, see. He cannot create a cell. He can pervert one, if he can...
