IS JESUS ALMIGHTY GOD?

                                                         
                                                                                                   
Jesus claims to be the son of God, not Almighty God. If Jesus were God, to whom was he praying while here on earth? Surely Jesus was just not pretending to talk to someone else! Was Jesus lower than God only while he was a man here on earth? No. even after his death and resurrection, Jesus is described in the Bible as being subordinate to God. Clearly Jesus is not God Almighty. That is why he spoke of his Father as “my God.” Revelation 3:2, 12. 2 Corinthians 1:3, 4.


Jesus never referred to God as some abstract force. On the contrary, he talked to God and prayed to him. He often called Jehovah his heavenly Father, a term revealing his deep intimacy with God. John 8:19, 38, 54. It is true that “no man has seen God at any time” and that “God is a spirit” but this does not mean that he is without body or form. He is a person, not simply an indefinable force that resides everywhere. How, then, can God’s influence be felt everywhere? God can send his holy spirit, or power in action, to any place in the universe. Like a Father who extends his hand to console and support his children, God extends his holy spirit to accomplish his purpose. Psalm 104:30; 139:7. Because God is a personality with likes and dislikes- even feelings. The Bible tells us that he loves his people, rejoices in his works, hates idolatry, and feels hurt over wickedness.
