The Deity of Christ

The Deity of Christ

Author: John MacArthur

"What kind of man is this, that even the winds and sea obey him?"

The Deity of Christ is a biblical defense of Jesus’ divinity—the cornerstone of Christian doctrine. From over a dozen New Testament texts, pastor and theologian John MacArthur explores how Jesus is God, and why it matters. This study will deepen your knowledge of Christ, and thus your love for Him, fortifying your will and increasing your worship.

About the series: The John MacArthur Study Series adapts content from MacArthur's New Testament commentaries and arranges it for topical study. Each chapter takes readers deep into a biblical text, while the volume as a whole addresses a specific biblical theme. Ideal for personal study or preparing a topical series, these volumes explore key concepts for a vibrant, God-honoring Christian life.
