On Jesus Christ: Deity of

“Those who deny the Godhead of Christ are consistent in rejecting the atonement.” (1223.159)

“Depend upon it, my hearer, you never will go to heaven unless you are prepared to worship Jesus Christ as God.” (1225.177)

“God in the carpenter’s shop! The Son of God driving nails and handling a hammer! Wondrous work, this!” (1344.164)

“With a Saviour less than divine you have a religion less than saving.” (2141.233)

“Now, mark you, we who worship Christ as God can never have any fellowship with those who deny his Godhead, nor can they have any fellowship with us; for if he be indeed the Son of God, then they blaspheme him who deny it; and if he be only a man, then we are clearly idolaters and man-worshippers, and he did blaspheme.” (2337.580)

“Deity is not to be explained, but to be adored; and the Sonship of Christ is to be accepted as a truth of revelation, to be apprehended by faith, though it cannot be comprehended by the understanding.” (2635.386)

“If Christ was not God, we are not Christians; we are deceived dupes, we are idolaters, as bad as the heathen whom we now pity. It is making a man into a God if Christ be not God.” (2667.142)

“I never care to read any arguments about the Deity of Christ; I should as soon think of reading a book which sought to prove the existence of my mother.” (2719.136)
