Jesus Is God: A Deep(ish) Dive into the Gospel of John

Welcome to a thought-provoking episode of the Gospel Grounded Podcast in which we grapple with a challenging yet pivotal aspect of Christian faith: Jesus's claim to His divine identity. Understanding the divinity of Jesus is essential in laying the foundation of our faith and guiding our path towards salvation.

In this enlightening episode, we probe into various passages from the Gospel of John that elucidate Jesus's assertion of His divinity. From His audacious equating of Himself with God in John chapter 5 to His bold proclamation of oneness with the Father in John chapter 10, we scrutinize these scriptures to uncover Jesus's claim to Godhood.

We highlight Jesus's persistent assertion of His oneness with the Father that transcended the definition of a prophet or a teacher. This claim not only provoked reactions from the Jewish leaders of the time, indicating its clear reading as equating Himself with God, but also holds an incredible significance for our Christian beliefs.

The truth of Jesus as God is a bedrock of Christian faith, shaping the trajectory of our spiritual journeys towards sanctification. Join us in this engrossing episode as we delve into the scriptures, peel back layers, and strive to comprehend the divine identity of Jesus, strengthening our faith, and fostering our spiritual growth.
