Several times the Bible teaches that which applies unto God alone is equally used in reference to the Lord Jesus. Those who deny the Lord Jesus is God should take this information to heart.
The Lord Jesus fully knows the hearts of all men which demonstrates He is God (John 2:24-25; Acts 1:24; 1 Corinthians 4:5; Revelation 2:23).
1 Kings 8:39
then hear in heaven Your dwelling place, and forgive and act and render to each according to all his ways, whose heart You know, for You alone know the hearts of all the sons of men.
2 Chronicles 6:30
then hear from heaven Your dwelling place, and forgive, and render to each according to all his ways, whose heart You know for You alone know the hearts of the sons of men.
The Lord Jesus is the Creator (Colossians 1:16-17; Hebrews 1:10; cf. Psalm 102:25).
Job 9:8
Who alone stretches out the heavens
And tramples down the waves of the sea
Isaiah 44:24
Thus says the LORD, your Redeemer, and the one who formed you from the womb,
I, the LORD, am the maker of all things,
Stretching out the heavens by Myself
And spreading out the earth all alone.
Psalm 51:4
Against You, You only, I have sinned
And done what is evil in Your sight,
So that You are justified when You speak
And blameless when You judge.
Although we can sin against others, all sins are ultimately directed against God alone. We can forgive those who sin against us, but we cannot forgive those who sin against others. Since all sins are committed against the Lord Jesus demonstrates He is God (1 Corinthians 8:12; cf. Exodus 23:33).
Luke 4:8
Jesus answered him, “It is written, ‘You shall worship the Lord your God and serve Him only.’”
The Lord Jesus is the proper recipient of latreuō which proves He is God (cf. Revelation 22:3)
Revelation 15:4
Who will not fear, O Lord, and glorify Your name?
For You alone are holy;
For all the nations will come and worship before You,
For Your righteous acts have been revealed.
Since the Lord Jesus is to be universally feared (Colossians 3:22), and He receives glory in equality with the Father (Revelation 5:13), and all nations (Revelation 7:9) will worship Him in equality with the Father (Revelation 7:10) demonstrates the Lord Jesus is equally holy with the Father.
Concerning the use of "only" in John 17:3 and Jude 4 see here:
The Lord Jesus fully knows the hearts of all men which demonstrates He is God (John 2:24-25; Acts 1:24; 1 Corinthians 4:5; Revelation 2:23).
