Is Jesus God?
5For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;
Read the verses around it (1 Timothy 2:3-6)
3For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Saviour; 4Who will have all men to be saved, and to come unto the knowledge of the truth. 5For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus; 6Who gave himself a ransom for all, to be testified in due time.
28Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I.
Read the verses around it (John 14:27-31)
27Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. 28Ye have heard how I said unto you, I go away, and come again unto you. If ye loved me, ye would rejoice, because I said, I go unto the Father: for my Father is greater than I. 29And now I have told you before it come to pass, that, when it is come to pass, ye might believe. 30Hereafter I will not talk much with you: for the prince of this world cometh, and hath nothing in me. 31But that the world may know that I love the Father; and as the Father gave me commandment, even so I do. Arise, let us go hence.
Our explanation
The Bible calls Jesus the Son of God, and says "there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus" (1 Timothy 2:5). Jesus himself said, "my Father is greater than I" (John 14:28). God cannot be tempted, but Jesus was tempted in every way, as we are, and never sinned.
