Did Jesus say he was God? Is there a verse in the Bible in which Jesus explicitly says that he is God? He used titles like "Son of Man", "Chief Cornerstone," and "The Good Shepherd," but did he actually say he was God? When Jesus walked the earth, why were the Jewish people so violently opposed to his claim to be equal with the Father? Did Jesus always know he was the Son of God? In this episode of the Straight Truth Podcast, Dr. Richard Caldwell and guest Dr. Nicolas Ellen explore if Jesus ever claimed to be God. Dr. Caldwell explains that even though Jesus never used the phrase, "I am God," he still made clear that he was God. Moreover, his contemporaries and followers understood that Jesus was saying that he was God. Dr. Caldwell walks us through Bible passages were Jesus makes the case for his oneness with the Father and Spirit.
