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.

A total deliverance

Sunday, the 12th of July 1959

59-0712 §55

Jesus was completely, totally man. He could cry like a man; He could eat like a man; He could be tired like a man. He was completely, totally man in His physical being. And, in His Spirit, He was completely, totally God, so He made His flesh submissive to the Spirit that was in Him. You see, He was tempted in all manners like we are. He was man, not an Angel. He was a man! He had desires and temptations just like we do. The Bible said He did. He was a man, not an Angel above temptation. Hebrews 1 said that He was.....

God created all men: white man, black man, brown man, yellow man, every man. God created every man. He created the Gentile, created the Jew. He created all, and it's all for his glory. The Jews had to be rejected in order to take a Gentile bride. That's the reason all these types are. So the Gentile bride, and her offspring with her---that glorious Pentecostal church washed in the blood of the Lamb, with all the power of the resurrection living in them---will rise some day in the rapture, in a moment, in a twinklin...

I've said this before. It might stand again, now. I was talking to a woman not long ago, in a certain church I mentioned here awhile ago, that doesn't believe that He was God, His deity. He was just a prophet, an ordinary man. He was that, truly. He was that, plus God, see. He was the manifestation. Jesus is the body, the boy, the man. God was what dwelt in Him. God was in Him. He was a God-man. He was a man, yet He was God manifested in flesh. When we see Jesus, we see God. That's what He said. "When you see the F...

But it wasn't so from the beginning

61-0411 §19

And how many knows that God is light? And when God became flesh and dwelt in the body that He created, which was his only begotten son... Adam was his son, a created son. But Jesus was his begotten son, and God was in Jesus, reconciling the world to Himself. We all believe that. Every Christian believes that, that God was in Christ, because He said, "It is not me that doeth the works. It's my Father that dwelleth in me, He doeth the works." Jesus said in St. John 5:19, "I do nothing ... I see the Father doing it fi...

But when he stung that flesh, it pulled his stinger out. He has no more stinger. He was God in flesh, tabernacling among men. His stinging days were over. That's why God had to reflect Himself into a body which is ... we know as the Son of God, Jesus Christ. And He did that so that He could take away the penalty, because you see now (we're going to another part of the Scripture), but you see now why that that man was more than just a teacher---as people say He is today---a philosopher, or a good man, or a prophet....
