And our first question comes from Jim. All right. The B-STERS. I'm Amy Hall, and Greg Kokel is with me today. Amy.

And our first question comes from Jim.

All right.

The Bible clearly teaches that Jesus is the only path to forgiveness and salvation, but why is it necessary to believe that he is God?

For example, Jehovah's Witnesses don't believe in his deity, but they recognize him as the

path.

Some religions believe in modalism. Couldn't that be acceptable? Since the Trinity is so difficult for our little human

minds to comprehend, is belief in the Trinity really required for salvation?

Well, on the one hand, you could say, I don't see the connection. On the other hand, the text indicates that that's required. If you

confess with your mouth, Jesus as Lord, and believe that God raised him from the dead, you

will be saved. That was Romans 10. When it says Jesus as Lord, a reference to Jesus as Lord, that's a divine title.

Okay. The Lord is God. The Lord God. Nobody else was the Lord. And so this is the most common title given to Jesus.

And in reference to Jesus throughout the Gospels,

and frequently in the epistles, Jesus said, unless you believe, ego, me, you will die

in your sins.

Now, it's translated, I am, he sometimes, but it's just a goy me, I am.

And there are a number of times where Jesus uses this Greek form of the name of God from

Exodus, what for?

I am that I am.

That's where Yahweh comes from.
