Who is Jesus?

Was He merely a great teacher? A prophet? A miracle worker? Or did He truly claim equality with God?

John chapter 5 contains one of the most powerful declarations of Christ’s divine identity in all of Scripture. After healing a man who had suffered for thirty-eight years, Jesus made astonishing claims that changed everything. He declared that He possesses the authority to give life, execute judgment, receive the same honor as the Father, and fulfill the testimony of Moses and the Scriptures.
