About this listen

 In this episode of Equipping You in Grace, Dave Jenkins continues the December series on the Incarnation and the Christian worldview by examining why the deity of Christ is essential to the Christian faith. From the early church battles against Arianism to the modern confusion revealed in the State of Theology survey, the identity of Jesus has always been contested. Yet Scripture is clear. Jesus openly claimed deity. The New Testament writers affirm Him as the eternal Son of God. The early creeds defended this truth because the gospel depends on it. Dave walks through: • Christ's explicit claims to deity • Key biblical texts that reveal His divine identity • Early church controversies and the Council of Nicaea • Modern skepticism and cultural reductionism • Why only God can save • Why Christ's deity shapes true worship • How Christians can clearly and lovingly defend the biblical Christ If Jesus is not truly God, there is no salvation, no atonement, no resurrection, and no hope. But because He is the eternal Son of God, His death is sufficient, His resurrection is victorious, and His name is worthy of all worship.
