Gentlemen,

Here are additional Scriptures, mostly from the Gospel of John, to support the fact and reality that Jesus was fully God while on earth, simultaneously existing fully as a man.  I recommend that you read these verses within the broader context of the chapters in which you find them.

These first three passages summarize the theology behind this tenet of orthodox Christian faith:

• Philippians 2:5-8
• Colossians 1:19-20
• Hebrews 1:3

In this sampling of verses, all from John’s Gospel, Jesus “pulls back the curtain” and allows us to glimpse His glory, much like what occurred on the “Mount of Transfiguration” (Luke 9:28-36):

• John 1:14-15, 27, 29-30, 34, 47-51
• 2:19-22
• 3:16, 34-36
• 4:26, 42
• 5:18, 21, 23
• 6:20, 27, 40, 69
• 7:28-30
• 8:18, 28-29, 42, 54-59
• 9:35-37
• 10:25-31, 38
• 11:25-26
• 12:27-28, 45
• 13:20, 31
• 14:7, 10-12
• 18:36-37
