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 there is a very favorite portion of Scripture that the trinitarians think prove their point of more than one actual Person in the Godhead. It is Revelation 5:6-8, "And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as It had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth. And He came and took the book out of the right hand of Him That sat upon the throne. And when He had taken the...

Since this portion of the Word is hard for the human mind to grasp, it must be accepted and believed by faith. Some will be offended by what I have set forth because they fail to understand the sovereignty of God which sets forth that GOD IS GOD, and because He is God one cannot defeat His counsels or thwart His will and purpose; but He, being omnipotent, is ruling in ALL affairs and is doing whatever He will with all His creation because all were created for His good pleasure. Therefore, as Paul says, "If God shou...

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...

See how this works. God always had His thoughts for Adam. Adam, as His thoughts, was yet unexpressed. Psalms 139:15-16 will give you a little idea of this, "My substance was not hid from Thee, when I was made in secret, and curiously wrought in the lowest parts of the earth. Thine eyes did see my substance, yet being unperfect; and in Thy book were all my members written, which in continuance were fashioned, when as yet there was none of them." That, as I said, was not written about Adam but it gives you the idea a...
