Let us go to the beginning. The creator of the universe is God. He is three Souls in one Spirit. The three Soul persons of God are (1) the Most High God, (2) God the Word, and (3) the Spirit of God. All three persons are in one Omnipotent Spirit and he is one God. He has created all that exists. Let us see the creation verses from the scriptures. "Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.  2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters." Verse 1 says God created and verse 2 says the Spirit of God moved upon creation. After this, one God said to the other God to create and the other God created it. That is, God the Most High said to create, God the Word created them and the Spirit of God was also in it. Here, let us see the gist of the creation record.

"Gen 1:3… God said, Let there be light:  4 … God divided the light. 6 … God said, Let there be a firmament … 7 …God made the firmament… 9 ... God said, … let the dry land appear: 10 … God called the dry land Earth; 14 … God said, Let there be lights 16 God made two great lights…20… God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth ...  21… God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth … and every winged fowl after his kind: 24 … God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature …  25 … God made the beast of the earth after his kind, … 26 And God said, Let us make man in our image, … 27 So God created man …" Here we see that one God said and the other God made. The Spirit of God was in it. Thus God created all things.

The Old Testament says that God said and God created it, but it neither says which God said nor which God created it. "Eph 3:8 … I should preach among the Gentiles the unsearchable riches of Christ;  9 And to make all men see what is the fellowship of the mystery, which from the beginning of the world hath been hid in God, who created all things by Jesus Christ:" The New Testament says it clearly that God the Father said it and Jesus Christ created it, which indicates that the Lord Jesus Christ was God even at the very beginning.

This is the statement of Job from Old Testament. "Job 19:25… I know that my redeemer liveth, and that he shall stand at the latter day upon the earth: 26 And though after my skin worms destroy this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God:" The Lord Jesus Christ is the redeemer for the whole world. And, the verse says that the redeemer is God. "Titus 2:14 Who gave himself for us, that he might redeem us from all iniquity, and purify unto himself a peculiar people, zealous of good works." So, the Lord Jesus Christ is God.

"Isaiah 9:6 For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace." Isaiah refers the Lord Jesus Christ as the Mighty God as he prophesies from his birth as a baby boy to the everlasting end.

"Matt 1:23 Behold, a virgin shall be with child, and shall bring forth a son, and they shall call his name Emmanuel, which being interpreted is, God with us." God will be with all his people all the time until the end. This is fulfilled in the Lord Jesus Christ after his resurrection. "Matt 28:18 And Jesus came and spake unto them, saying, All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth... 20 ... lo, I am with you alway, even unto the end of the world." After his resurrection he is omnipresent and the Lord Jesus Christ is God.

"Acts 7:59 And they stoned Stephen, calling upon God, and saying, Lord Jesus, receive my spirit. 60 And he kneeled down, and cried with a loud voice, Lord, lay not this sin to their charge. And when he had said this, he fell asleep." Here is the account of the death of Stephen, the first martyr. Looking unto heaven, he calls God as the Lord Jesus, which is proof that the Lord Jesus Christ is God.

The Bible repeatedly points out that our Saviour is the Lord Jesus Christ. "Luke 2:11 For unto you is born this day in the city of David a Saviour, which is Christ the Lord." Again it points out that the Saviour is God. "1 Tim 2:3 …this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; Luke 1:47 … my spirit hath rejoiced in God my Saviour." Here, the Bible says that the Lord Jesus Christ is God.

"Titus 2:10 … but shewing all good fidelity; that they may adorn the doctrine of God our Saviour in all things…. 13 Looking for that blessed hope, and the glorious appearing of the great God and our Saviour Jesus Christ;" God our Saviour is referred here as Great God. That is, the Lord Jesus Christ is Great God.

The Lord Jesus Christ visits Apostle John at the island of Patmos and identifies himself as 'the Almighty'.  "Rev 1:8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.  Rev 4:8… they rest not day and night, saying, Holy, holy, holy, Lord God Almighty, which was, and is, and is to come." The same Jesus Christ is also called Lord God Almighty. "Rev 15:3 they sing … the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.

"1 John 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one." At the end of the New Testament, it is revealed that the Lord Jesus Christ has become the Word. "John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." The Word is God and so, the Lord Jesus Christ is God. "Rev 19:13 And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God… 15 … he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God." Here we see that the Lord Jesus Christ is the Word of God is the Almighty God.

God the Father gave all judgments to the Lord Jesus Christ. "John 5:22 the Father judgeth no man, but hath committed all judgment unto the Son," Lord God Almighty is the judge. "Rev 16:7  Even so, Lord God Almighty, true and righteous are thy judgments." That is, the Lord Jesus Christ is God. "Rev 19:1 And after these things I heard a great voice of much people in heaven, saying, Alleluia; Salvation, and glory, and honour, and power, unto the Lord our God: 2 For true and righteous are his judgments:  5 And a voice came out of the throne, saying, Praise our God, all ye his servants, and ye that fear him, both small and great. 6 And I heard as it were the voice of a great multitude, and as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of mighty thunderings, saying, Alleluia: for the Lord God omnipotent reigneth." Many verses repeated the fact that Jesus Christ is God.

"Rev 11:15 … the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever. 16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God, 17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come." They worship God the Father as well as the Lord Jesus Christ as God.

The Lord God has sent his angel to convey the message, verse 6. Then he says that the Lord God in the Lord Jesus Christ, verse 16. The Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord God. "Rev 22:6 .. he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done. 16 I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches."

(1) We must have faith and hope in God the Father, who raised Jesus Christ from death and gave him glory, so that we may also be raised in such a fashion on that day. "1 Peter 1:21 Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God."

(2) God the Father is above all, even above the Lord Jesus Christ and the Holy Ghost. He is the God Most High. "1 Cor 15:28 And when all things shall be subdued unto him, then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all. Luke 8:28 When he saw Jesus, he cried out, and fell down before him, and with a loud voice said, What have I to do with thee, Jesus, thou Son of God most high? I beseech thee, torment me not."

(3) The enemies of the gospel may bring anything to confuse the issues. The word of God is very clear in pointing that the Lord Jesus Christ is the Lord. As servants we must love him. That is, we must obey his commandments. "John 14:15 If ye love me, keep my commandments. 23 Jesus answered and said unto him, If a man love me, he will keep my words: and my Father will love him, and we will come unto him, and make our abode with him."
