The Deity of Christ

Sermon on the Deity of Christ - Trinity Reformed Church - April 21st, 2024 Belgic Confession, Article 10 We believe that Jesus Christ, according to his divine nature, is the only Son of God—
eternally begotten, not made or created, for then he would be a creature.

He is one in essence with the Father; coeternal; the exact image of the person of the Father and the “reflection of God’s glory,”13 being like the Father in all things.

Jesus Christ is the Son of God not only from the time he assumed our nature but from all eternity, as the following testimonies teach us when they are taken together.

Moses says that God created the world;14 and John says that all things were created through the Word,15 which he calls God.

The apostle says that God created the world through the Son.16 He also says that God created all things through Jesus Christ.17
And so it must follow that the one who is called God, the Word, the Son, and Jesus Christ already existed before creating all things. Therefore the prophet Micah says
that Christ’s origin is “from ancient days.”18 And the apostle says that the Son has “neither beginning of days nor end of life.”19

So then, he is the true eternal God, the Almighty, whom we invoke, worship, and serve.
