I Was Forced To Reconsider What I Believe About Jesus Being God

Is Jesus really God, or is He only the Son of God? In this powerful Saints in the City teaching, Pastor Rod tackles one of the most controversial topics in Christian theology and biblical doctrine. With so many voices on social media, TikTok debates, Unitarian teachings, and false doctrines challenging the deity of Christ, believers need biblical clarity now more than ever. This episode breaks down what the phrase "Son of God" actually meant in the Bible, why modern Western thinking often misunderstands Scripture, and how first-century Jews understood Jesus' claims about His identity. Through a deep study of John 5, John 10, Daniel 3, and other key passages, you'll discover why calling Jesus the Son of God was actually a declaration of equality with God, not a denial of His divinity. Many people claim that Jesus never said He was God, but what does the Bible actually say? Pastor Rod walks through powerful scriptures including John 1:1, John 1:14, Titus 2:13, Colossians 2:9, Hebrews 1:3, and John 8:58 to reveal the overwhelming biblical evidence for the deity of Jesus Christ. You'll learn the historical and cultural context behind terms like Son of God, Son of Thunder, sons of rebellion, and other biblical expressions that help explain how ancient audiences understood identity, nature, authority, and representation. This teaching also addresses common objections raised by skeptics, critics, and false teachers while providing a strong defense of the Trinity, the Godhead, and the biblical truth that Jesus is fully God and fully man. If you've ever wrestled with questions about who Jesus is, biblical interpretation, Christian apologetics, salvation, theology, or the nature of God, this message will challenge and strengthen your faith. Saints in the City exists to help believers navigate culture, social media confusion, false teachings, church trends, and spiritual deception through a Kingdom lens rooted in Scripture. Whether you're a mature believer, a new Christian, a Bible student, or someone searching for truth, this episode will equip you with biblical understanding and spiritual discernment to confidently defend your faith and stand firm on the truth of God's Word. The world is loud, but the saints still gotta see. #saintsinthecity #isjesusgod #jesus
