He Claimed to Be God: Jesus and the Attributes of God - Paperback

by Allyn Ricketts (Author)

Critical voices within the culture and church frequently make the claim that Jesus never claimed to be God. If Jesus never made the claim to deity, why would the early church have held such a belief from its earliest days?

He Claimed to Be God responds to this idea and reviews the various ways Jesus did claim to be God. It is aimed at doubters but also seeks to build the faith of believers and give them some ways to respond to the charge. Jesus claimed to have the attributes of God. Qualities such as sovereignty, omniscience, holiness, and love show that Jesus was claiming to be the God of the Old Testament. During the exploration of this topic, other apologetic issues come to the surface as we look briefly at the Trinity, the validity of miracles, and the power to exist as one of God's attributes.

Uplifting and thoroughly supported by scripture, this theological study examines one aspect of the case for Christ and demonstrates that Jesus claimed to be God.
