The Deity of Jesus is proclaimed throughout scripture without a doubt. As a matter of fact, the bible proclaims this particular doctrine as THE KEY to testing whether someone is aligned with the Holy Spirit or with the Anti-Christ. Jesus said Himself you are either for me or against me. Rejection of Jesus as God places you AGAINST Him.

Can you post those scriptures please?

>>> Can you post those scriptures please?

Do you question the Deity of Jesus?

Are you looking for an argument? or for answers?

I could post scriptures till I’m blue in the face,
and it won’t do you any good if your objective is simply to deny the obvious.

How about we just start with the name the Angels said He would be called... Emanuel... Which means “God With Us”.
Appropriate considering the season, and the Gospels where this is found.

Philippians 2:5 In your relationships with one another, have the same mindset as Christ Jesus:
6.Who, being in very nature God, did not consider equality with God something to be used to his own advantage;
7.rather, he made himself nothing (NIV)

Colossians 1:15 The Son is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation.
16 For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him.
17 He is before all things, and in him all things hold together.
18 And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy.
19 For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him,
20 and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

We must reconcile these two scriptures, somehow...

Philippians 2:9 Therefore God exalted him to the highest place and gave him the name that is above every name,
10 that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth,
11 and every tongue acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

and

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.

So, what exactly is the name of the LORD?

Romans 10:9 If you declare with your mouth, “Jesus is Lord,” and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved.
10 For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you profess your faith and are saved.
11 As Scripture says, “Anyone who believes in him will never be put to shame.”
12 For there is no difference between Jew and Gentile—the same Lord is Lord of all and richly blesses all who call on him,
13 for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”

The only way to be able to confes Jesus is Lord...

1 Corinthians 12:3 Therefore I want you to know that no one who is speaking by the Spirit of God says, "Jesus be cursed," and no one can say, "Jesus is Lord," except by the Holy Spirit.

These are some of the old and new testament versus that point to Jesus’s deity and or illustrating the Trinity.

Then God said, “Let Us make man in Our image, according to Our likeness...

In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.

Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.

I and [my] Father are one.

Go to, let us go down, and there confound their language, that they may not understand one another’s speech.

And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:

For in him dwelleth all the fullness of the Godhead bodily.

For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth,

Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature

Also I heard the voice of the Lord, saying, Whom shall I send, and who will go for us? Then said I, Here [am] I; send me. And he said, Go, and tell this people, Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not.
