“Who Can Declare God but God.”

Darlington Feddoes

The I AM is introduced in the old testament of the Bible in the book of Genesis and He is worshiped as the true and living God.

In His great love, God sent His only son to die for the world. In the new testament of the Bible, Jesus is the son of God. He is the son of His love, who is in the bosom of the Father. In the four Gospels of the new testament, Jesus is presented differently in each book.
The word gospel comes from the Anglo-Saxon term god-spell meaning good story or good news. There are four gospels: Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John.
Each of these books gives an account of the life of Jesus from different viewpoints, not opposing but different.

Matthew presents Jesus as the Messiah.
Mark presents Jesus as the Servant.
Luke presents Jesus as the Son of Man.
John presents Jesus as the Son of God.

Each representation of Jesus is not an opposing view but shows the characteristics of the Lord.
Matthew and John both start with some form of genealogy, Matthew shows his earthly Jewish lineage establishing him as the Messiah or the anointed one. The first verse immediately establishes him as the son of David (the King) and the son of Abraham (the father of nations), Jesus Christ. Earthly name Jesus and his title as the Christ or the anointed one. Christ comes from the Greek word Christos used in the Greek Septuagint to translate the Hebrew Masiah or Messiah, meaning the anointed one.
The book of John declares his deity as the Word is in the beginning, before time began the Word was with God and the Word was God. He is coexistent and coeternal, coequal with God and He is God. He declared God while here on earth.

John 14 verse 9 and 10
“Philip saith unto him, Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us. Jesus said unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? He that hath seen me hath seen the Father.”
