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.

They've had now, in order to do that, they had to get something to go with it. In order to do that, they tried to say, "God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Ghost." Now, absolutely, there's no such a thing. It's not three Gods. That's heathenism! There's three offices of the same God. The Fatherhood... When God dwelt alone, holy; His Laws, His righteousness makes Him holy. He wanted to be in men, He wanted to worship with men, He wanted men to worship Him. He had to come to men. And then when He did, He create...

Now to show that He was the first also (as He was), He's the beginning of the creation of God. Oh! Do you catch it? See? How could God be created if He's a spirit? How could He be? He's eternal. He never was created. He never will be created, because He was God at the beginning. But He that is the beginning of the creation of God was Jesus Christ, when He was made manifest, when God lived in Him. He is God's creation. Oh, my! See? The first and the last, the Amen, the beginning of the creation of God. When God crea...

You meet your mother in glory tonight, if you should go, you couldn't shake her hand because she has not that kind of a hand. You couldn't feel it like you'd feel now, because five senses is what's put in this body, could it control. The presence of her would be felt in a different atmosphere. That's like a husband and wife. There'll be no marrying or given in marrying in heaven. Why? Because there is a different kind of love; there's no sexual desire. All those things has passed away; you're cleansed and pure. But...

What we need today is a good old fashion cleaning out, and getting right with God. That's exactly right.

Now, notice. But when the--the male... See, God foreordained that. That's the way with... We reason we believe that Jesus was of a virgin birth.

...last night in the church that I didn't know I was saying it, but how that Satan is not a healer. And the Lutheran college where all those were converted recently, when the man debated with me on the subject, said Satan could heal. And when you hear anyone say Satan can heal, he's wrong. Only God can create. Satan cannot create. He can only pervert what has been created. There's only one omnipresent. Satan cannot be omnipresent. God alone is omnipresent, omnipotent, infinite. And no medicine can create cells to hea...
