Thus, Jesus is the Almighty (All-powerful).
Thanks.
First, don't dodge that Jesus claimed in Mathew 28:18 that his authority was given.
The boldface below is mine.
Matthew 28:18
And Jesus came up and spoke to them, saying,
All authority has been given to Me in heaven and on earth. hh
I find it surprising that those who deny the Lord Jesus is God will sometimes refer to Matthew 28:18 and emphasize that Jesus was GIVEN His authority which they think proves Jesus is not God. Those who believe the Lord Jesus is God can account for the fact that He was "given" all authority in that before His resurrection...
Not according to Scripture.
Revelation 1
4John,
To the seven churches in the province of Asia:
Grace and peace to you from Him who is and was and is to come, and from the seven spirits
c before His throne,
5and from Jesus Christ, the faithful witness, the firstborn from the dead, and the ruler of the kings of the earth.
To Him who loves us and has released us from our sins by His blood,
6who has made us to be a kingdom, priests to His God and Father—to Him be the glory and power forever and ever! Amen.
7Behold, He is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see Him—even those who pierced Him. And all the tribes of the earth will mourn because of Him. So shall it be! Amen.
8“I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, who is and was and is to come—the Almighty.
Revelation 22
22But I saw no temple in the city, because the Lord God Almighty and the Lamb are its temple.
