Jesus of Nazareth: More Than Just a Messiah

Author: Byran W. Sheldon
Publisher: Gospel Folio Press
An examination of the deity of Christ as revealed in the Bible

The life of Jesus of Nazareth has divided history into two. His influence has been felt all around the globe. His followers number millions. His teaching has guided nations. What was there about Him that should have such an enduring effect? The key to the answer lies in who He was. The Church has long held that He was God revealed in the flesh, "the Son of God, the only-begotten of the Father, that is, of the substance of the Father, God from God, light from light, true God from true God, begotten, not made, of one substance with the Father." This belief has come under attack once again. This modest volume offers some Biblical evidence in support of the doctrine of the deity of Christ in the hope that some will find it helpful in repelling the arguments of those who wish to diminish the One who died for the salvation of sinners, at the same time strengthening an appreciation of the greatness of our Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ.
