The Most Explicit Verses on the Godship of Jesus

RE: The Most Explicit Verses on the Godship of Jesus
Rayaan Wrote:Yeah, but "I and my Father are one" does not necessarily mean that they are one in substance.

But, when he says "follow me," that doesn't necessarily mean that he is saying that he is God.

Well, those are probably just proper names that were given to Jesus, not his personal names. They don't necessarily mean that he was God himself.

The fact that they called Jesus "Immanuel" doesn't necessarily mean that he was God
First, what would necessarily mean that Jesus is God?

Second, to say that these do not necessarily mean that Jesus is God implies that they could mean Jesus is God.

Third, you're making ad hoc arguments against each passage brought up. Even if there isn't a single smoking gun verse (I'm not conceding that - I'm waiting for your response to the first point before considering more passages), one can quite resonably consider the totality of the evidence in reaching a conclusion.
