Question, Why were the Religious Leaders always wanting to stone Jesus? Answer , Because Jesus told Them he was God and his works proved it, he gave sight to the blind, the lame walked, he raised dead, he walked on water, he spoke to the wind and calmed the storm, walked thru walls, healed the sick, Died on the cross, rose from the dead, seen after he rose from the dead by many witnesses, ascended into heaven and seated at the right hand of God , now many would say I am wrong about this, but when you listen to the words that came out of Jesus mouth , like when the religious leaders said Abraham is our father, and Jesus replied, Abraham is our father,” they answered. “If you were Abraham’s children,” said Jesus, “then you would do what Abraham did. 40As it is, you are looking for a way to kill me, a man who has told you the truth that I heard from God. Abraham did not do such things. 41You are doing the works of your own father.” “We are not illegitimate children,” they protested. “The only Father we have is God himself.” 42Jesus said to them, “If God were your Father, you would love me, for I have come here from God. I have not come on my own; God sent me. 43Why is my language not clear to you? Because you are unable to hear what I say. 44You belong to your father, the devil, and you want to carry out your father’s desires. He was a murderer from the beginning, not holding to the truth, for there is no truth in him. When he lies, he speaks his native language, for he is a liar and the father of lies. 45Yet because I tell the truth, you do not believe me! 46Can any of you prove me guilty of sin? If I am telling the truth, why don’t you believe me? 47Whoever belongs to God hears what God says. The reason you do not hear is that you do not belong to God.” Jesus’ Claims About Himself 48The Jews answered him, “Aren’t we right in saying that you are a Samaritan and demon-possessed?” 49“I am not possessed by a demon,” said Jesus, “but I honor my Father and you dishonor me. 50I am not seeking glory for myself; but there is one who seeks it, and he is the judge. 51Very truly I tell you, whoever obeys my word will never see death.” 52At this they exclaimed, “Now we know that you are demon-possessed! Abraham died and so did the prophets, yet you say that whoever obeys your word will never taste death. 53Are you greater than our father Abraham? He died, and so did the prophets. Who do you think you are?” 54Jesus replied, “If I glorify myself, my glory means nothing. My Father, whom you claim as your God, is the one who glorifies me. 55Though you do not know him, I know him. If I said I did not, I would be a liar like you, but I do know him and obey his word. 56Your father Abraham rejoiced at the thought of seeing my day; he saw it and was glad.” 57“You are not yet fifty years old,” they said to him, “and you have seen Abraham!” 58“Very truly I tell you,” Jesus answered, “before Abraham was born, I am!” 59At this, they picked up stones to stone him, but Jesus hid himself, slipping away from the temple grounds. You see what Jesus said, I Am ,remember when God was speaking to Moses thru the burning bush? what did he say, Now Moses was tending the flock of Jethro his father—in—law, the priest of Midian, and he led the flock to the far side of the desert and came to Horeb, the mountain of God. 2There the angel of the LORD appeared to him in flames of fire from within a bush. Moses saw that though the bush was on fire it did not burn up. 3So Moses thought, I will go over and see this strange sight—why the bush does not burn up. 4 When the LORD saw that he had gone over to look, God called to him from within the bush, Moses! Moses! And Moses said, Here I am. 5 Do not come any closer, God said. Take off your sandals, for the place where you are standing is holy ground. 6Then he said, I am the God of your father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob. At this, Moses hid his face, because he was afraid to look at God. 7 The LORD said, I have indeed seen the misery of my people in Egypt. I have heard them crying out because of their slave drivers, and I am concerned about their suffering. 8 So I have come down to rescue them from the hand of the Egyptians and to bring them up out of that land into a good and spacious land, a land flowing with milk and honey—the home of the Canaanites, Hittites, Amorites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites. 9 And now the cry of the Israelites has reached me, and I have seen the way the Egyptians are oppressing them. 10 So now, go. I am sending you to Pharaoh to bring my people the Israelites out of Egypt. 11 But Moses said to God, Who am I, that I should go to Pharaoh and bring the Israelites out of Egypt? 12 And God said, I will be with you. And this will be the sign to you that it is I who have sent you: When you have brought the people out of Egypt, you will worship God on this mountain. 13 Moses said to God, Suppose I go to the Israelites and say to them, ‘The God of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ Then what shall I tell them? 14 God said to Moses, I AM WHO I AM. This is what you are to say to the Israelites: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’ I Am, when God says this he is saying I am all you will ever need ,trust in me, I love you and I came into the world and manifested myself to humanity to have a personal relationship with all who would except what I did thru the man Jesus Christ , This is only one example of how Jesus told the leaders he was in fact God in the flesh, and the word became flesh and lived among us. Who is this Jesus? Jesus and his disciples headed out for the villages around Caesarea Philippi. As they walked, he asked, “Who do the people say I am?” 28 “Some say ‘John the Baptizer,’” they said. “Others say ‘Elijah.’ Still others say ‘one of the prophets.’” 29 He then asked, “And you—what are you saying about me? Who am I?” Peter gave the answer: “You are the Christ, the Messiah.” Philippians 2:9 Being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself by becoming obedient to the point of death, even death on a cross. 9For this reason also, God highly exalted Him, and bestowed on Him the name which is above every name, 10so that at the name of Jesus EVERY KNEE WILL BOW, of those who are in heaven and on earth and under the earth, What do you say about this person Jesus, I say you are My God , My Lord, My King, my Savior, you are also, Advocate - 1 John 2:1 Almighty - Revelation 1:8 Alpha - Revelation 1:8 Amen - Revelation 3:14 Angel of the Lord - Genesis 16:7 Anointed One - Psalm 2:2 Apostle - Hebrews 3:1 Author and Perfecter of our Faith - Hebrews 12:2 Beginning - Revelation 21:6 Bishop of Souls - 1 Peter 2:25 Branch - Zechariah 3:8 Bread of Life - John 6:35,48 Bridegroom - Matthew 9:15 Carpenter - Mark 6:3 Chief Shepherd - 1 Peter 5:4 The Christ - Matthew 1:16 Comforter - Jeremiah 8:18 Consolation of Israel - Luke 2:25 Cornerstone - Ephesians 2:20 Dayspring - Luke 1:78 Day Star - 2 Peter 1:19 Deliverer - Romans 11:26 Desire of Nations - Haggai 2:7 Emmanuel - Matthew 1:23 End - Revelation 21:6 Everlasting Father - Isaiah 9:6 Faithful and True Witness - Revelation 3:14 First Fruits - 1 Corinthians 15:23 Foundation - Isaiah 28:16 Fountain - Zechariah 13:1 Friend of Sinners - Matthew 11:19 Gate for the Sheep - John 10:7 Gift of God - 2 Corinthians 9:15 God - John 1:1 Glory of God - Isaiah 60:1 Good Shepherd - John 10:11 Governor - Matthew 2:6 Great Shepherd - Hebrews 13:20 Guide - Psalm 48:14 Head of the Church - Colossians 1:18 High Priest - Hebrews 3:1 Holy One of Israel - Isaiah 41:14 Horn of Salvation - Luke 1:69 I Am - Exodus 3:14 Jehovah - Psalm 83:18 Jesus - Matthew 1:21 King of Israel - Matthew 27:42 King of Kings - 1 Timothy 6:15; Revelation 19:16 Lamb of God - John 1:29 Last Adam - 1 Corinthians 15:45 Life - John 11:25 Light of the World - John 8:12; John 9:5 Lion of the Tribe of Judah - Revelation 5:5 Lord of Lords - 1 Timothy 6:15; Revelation 19:16 Master - Matthew 23:8 Mediator - 1 Timothy 2:5 Messiah - John 1:41 Mighty God - Isaiah 9:6 Morning Star - Revelation 22:16 Nazarene - Matthew 2:23 Omega - Revelation 1:8 Passover Lamb - 1 Corinthians 5:7 Physician - Matthew 9:12 Potentate - 1 Timothy 6:15 Priest - Hebrews 4:15 Prince of Peace - Isaiah 9:6 Prophet - Acts 3:22 Propitiation - I John 2:2 Purifier - Malachi 3:3 Rabbi - John 1:49 Ransom - 1 Timothy 2:6 Redeemer - Isaiah 41:14 Refiner - Malachi 3:2 Refuge - Isaiah 25:4 Resurrection - John 11:25 Righteousness - Jeremiah 23:6 Rock - Deuteronomy 32:4 Root of David - Revelation 22:16 Rose of Sharon - Song of Solomon 2:1 Ruler of Gods Creation - Revelation 3:14 Sacrifice - Ephesians 5:2 Savior - 2 Samuel 22:47; Luke 1:47 Second Adam - 1 Corinthians 15:47 Seed of Abraham - Galatians 3:16 Seed of David - 2 Timothy 2:8 Seed of the Woman - Genesis 3:15 Servant - Isaiah 42:1 Shepherd - 1 Peter 2:25 Shiloh - Genesis 49:10 Son of David - Matthew 15:22 Son of God - Luke 1:35 Son of Man - Matthew 18:11 Son of Mary - Mark 6:3 Son of the Most High - Luke 1:32 Stone - Isaiah 28:16 Sun of Righteousness - Malachi 4:2 Teacher - Matthew 26:18 Truth - John 14:6 Way - John 14:6 Wonderful Counselor - Isaiah 9:6 Word - John 1:1 Vine - John 15:1 He is everything you will ever need,
