Episode Summary

Who is the most well-known or famous person you have ever met? No matter your answer, there is one person far greater than any celebrity any of us could ever meet: Jesus Christ. Jesus is the Son of God, the second member of the Trinity. Jesus is fully God. He is divine; He is eternal; He is deity. But He was also a man.

Topics We Discussed in this Episode

● [7:20] God is three persons. Each person is fully God. There is One God.

● [11:03] Jesus is divine. He is fully and wholly God.

● [13:22] Seventy-eight percent of Christians surveyed agreed with the statement that said Jesus was the first and greatest being created by God the Father.

● [23:30] If we believe Jesus was created, but still could save us, then we wrongly attribute the work of salvation to a creature and not to God Himself.
