Jesus is God - Every knee shall bow

Post #1

Isaiah 45
22 “Turn to me and be saved,
all you ends of the earth;
for I am God, and there is no other.
23 By myself I have sworn,
my mouth has uttered in all integrity
a word that will not be revoked:
Before me every knee will bow;
by me every tongue will swear.
24 They will say of me, ‘In the Lord alone
are deliverance and strength.’”
All who have raged against him
will come to him and be put to shame.
25 But all the descendants of Israel
will find deliverance in the Lord
and will make their boast in him.


Philippians 2:10-11
English Standard Version
10 so that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth, 11 and every tongue confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Is every knee meant to bow to God or to Jesus or is this evidence Jesus is God?
Proverbs 18:17 The one who states his case first seems right, until the other comes and examines him.

In Isaiah its said: ‘I am God, and there is no other.’ But in Philippians, said that every knee will bow to Jesus. It doesn't say ‘bow in respect to God' for 'Jesus’ but ‘bow at the name of Jesus.’ For me, this is evidence that Jesus is indeed God. Not a separate God, but God in human form. You know, The Trinity – Father, Son, and Holy Spirit – one God in three persons. I believed that the bowing is to both God the Father and Jesus, because Jesus "is" God in flesh that come to save us like Isaiah said. Isaiah’s prophecy is fulfilled in Jesus. Praise The Lord! :thanks:

It says, at the name of Jesus. And this leads to question, what is the name of Jesus?

John 17:11

If we believe Jesus, God gave His name to Jesus. And i believe that is the name, the name of God, at every knee should bow.

No, I say Jesus has God's name and he acted in God's name. i think it could be compared to an ambassador that acts in the name of his country and can make deals in the name of his country. It doesn't mean he himself is the country, but he acts in the country's name.

How can any non-God being truly have God's name?

or another way: Does Jesus truly have God's name?

By God giving it.

I believe what Jesus said. And I have understood it means in this case that Jesus acted in God's name, did what God commanded him to do.

Of course not!

YHWH the personal name of God is one and there is no one beside him. Jesus is the Son of God, the man made by with a woman by him and birthed by this woman, who became possessed by his God and Father.

I can give loads of scripture if you wish.

Jesus, Joshua; Yahshua means God saves, Jesus was chosen and entitled to this name.

I hope this helps..APAK
