Isaiah 44:24 “Thus saith the LORD (Yĕhovah) , thy redeemer, and he that formed thee from the womb, I am the LORD (Yĕhovah) that maketh all things; that stretcheth forth the heavens alone; that spreadeth abroad the earth by myself;”
I was talking to a new friend of mine, and he asks this question:
Rachid M Writes- “Jesus cannot be Yahweh. In Isaiah 44:24 it says that Yahweh was alone when he created the heavens and the earth. Matthew 12:18 quotes Isaiah 42:1 which says that Yahweh will send his servant. Who is that servant? It is Jesus. Now if Yahweh was the one true God (Exodus 20:2-3) who alone created the heavens and the earth and he was the one who was to send his servant (Jesus), then that means that Jesus is not Yahweh. This means that Jesus is not God”
Rachid’s question above is – If Yeshua Jesus is God, then why did it say Yahweh created “alone’? Doesn’t that contradict?
Isn’t that an excellent question?
Lets first look at the context of the entire chapter…….
1. The Context Of The Chapter Talks About Created Idols, And The God Of Israel Says ONLY One God Exists.
Isaiah 44 mirrors so many other chapters in the bible. We see the concept of people creating “gods” and bowing down to them. We see this in our modern culture today, but in a different form. Hollywood is worshiped and social status and money is lifted up in most people’s eyes. Take all of these things away, money, cars, a job, and we will again see people brought to their knees in prayer.
Back then carved images of stone were worshiped. You can think back to the scene in Gladiator the movie where Russel Crowe was in his room before a big fight and he lined up his 20 or so carved statues and started kissing them, praying for safety for the day ahead.
In Isaiah 44 we see reinforced that there is no God other than the God of Israel. He goes to say that He was the one who was responsible for creation in the womb. Creation belongs to Him only. Most of the chapter we see God reasoning with people who believe their concept of “god” is the truth.
“is one…..”
So why does the scriptures say “alone” if there are claims that Yeshua Jesus and the Holy Spirit are part of the God head?
The answer is simple – The words “one”, or “alone” simply don’t contradict the idea that the God head is ONE, but also these entities are their own personalities and persons.
For most of us who believe that God is ONE, however at the same time operates as “US”, …….this scripture poses no challenges what so ever. (God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit IS ONE) ( 1 x 1 x 1 = 1) (Different persons in one entity)
We have Yeshua saying – There is ONLY ONE God in Mark.
- Mark 12:29-34 Yeshua answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord” – Although look to the scripture He pointed to.
- Deuteronomy 6:4 — Hear, O Israel: The LORD thy God is one LORD
Notice the word in Deut 6:4 has the word “elohiym” in HEBREW – which means plural.
This is the very scripture that Jesus was referring back to in Mark 12:29-34
That same word is used in a number of places (see below) that many of us have often just designated to Yahweh alone. Yet, here we see this word means plural… Isn’t that interesting?
See this word in Blue Letter Bible
We know that God is ONE, as there are countless scriptures that talk about this. See the list below, and expanded in the notes section below:
(Deuteronomy 4:35,39, Deuteronomy 6:4, Deuteronomy32:39, 2 Samuel 7:22, 1 Kings 8:60, 2 KINGS 5:15, 2 Kings 19:15, 1 Chronicles 17:20, Nehemiah 9:6, Psalm 18:31, Psalm 86:10, Isaiah 37:16,20, Isaiah43:10,11, Isaiah44:6,8, Isaiah 45:21, Isaiah 46:9, Hosea 13:4, Joel 2:27, Zechariah 14:9, NEW Testament, Mark 12:29-34, John 17:3, Romans 3:30, 1 Corinthians 8:4-6, Galatians 3:20, Ephesians 4:6, 1 Timothy 1:17, 1 Timothy 2:5, James 2:19 )
“let US…..”
We have scriptures pointing to that God is ONE, Yet, at the same time we have scriptures that refer to “US”
Again, if the doctrine that Yeshua, Yahweh, and Ruach Hakodesh (The Holy Spirit in Hebrew ) IS ONE entity, then all of these scriptures do not contradict, but work in harmony together.
- Genesis 1:26 Then God said, “Let us make mankind in our image
- Genesis 3:22 – 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.
(Man became like God in to know good and evil. Before this man was innocent not knowing what disobedience is and the sin.)
- Gen.11:7: God speaking, “Let us go down, and there confound their language.”
- Isa.6:8 “Who shall I send, who will go for us.” Both the singular and the plural are used in the same verse.
Gen. 1:26: “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness.”
The words “our” and “us” means more than one.
God is not speaking with the angels here in Gen.1:26. The Bible refutes this. Isa.40:12-15 when speaking of God creating the world it asked, “With whom did he take counsel.” For if it meant “angels” then they would have the power to create as God does, which we know is not true. Man is made in the image of God, and IS NOT God.
The Bible teaches us that Yeshua (not the angels) – created all things:
“All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.” (John 1:3)
Whoever God is speaking to in Genesis 1:26 has the same power as him. God did not create the world with assistance from aliens, but rather it refers to Yeshua who creates.
Here we see a very clear passage talking about all three:
1 Peter 1:2 – Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied.
All knowing (incredible forknowledge), sanctification, (HOLY purification), blood (ONLY WAY salvation)
So you see that there are traits accompanying those titles for THEIR roles.
“Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.“
In Matthew when Yeshua was out in the wilderness fasting forty days and forty nights, the devil tempted him. Notice when He replies to Satan, He replies stating that HE is God. Isn’t it interesting that Moses also fasted for 40 days and 40 nights? In that instance when Moses met with the Lord on the mountain, the God of Israel called Himself “I AM”, and you will see further down in this post that Yeshua ALSO calls Himself that.
Matthew 4:1-11
4 Then was Jesus led up of the Spirit into the wilderness to be tempted of the devil.
2 And when he had fasted forty days and forty nights, he was afterward an hungred.
3 And when the tempter came to him, he said, If thou be the Son of God, command that these stones be made bread.
4 But he answered and said, It is written, Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.
5 Then the devil taketh him up into the holy city, and setteth him on a pinnacle of the temple,
6 And saith unto him, If thou be the Son of God, cast thyself down: for it is written, He shall give his angels charge concerning thee: and in their hands they shall bear thee up, lest at any time thou dash thy foot against a stone.
7 Jesus said unto him, It is written again, Thou shalt not tempt the Lord thy God.
8 Again, the devil taketh him up into an exceeding high mountain, and sheweth him all the kingdoms of the world, and the glory of them;
9 And saith unto him, All these things will I give thee, if thou wilt fall down and worship me.
10 Then saith Jesus unto him, Get thee hence, Satan: for it is written, Thou shalt worship the Lord thy God, and him only shalt thou serve.
11 Then the devil leaveth him, and, behold, angels came and ministered unto him.
“mighty God”
Yeshua Jesus is the “mighty God” as is referenced in Isaiah 9:6, “For a child will be born to us, a son will be given to us, and the government will rest on His shoulders, and His name will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Eternal Father, Prince of Peace.”
Who was the child born? Yeshua of course.
Yahweh is also called the Mighty God in Jeremiah 32:18 and Isaiah 10:21. In all three verses, including Isaiah 9:6, the Hebrew word for “mighty” (gibbor) is used.
-
Isaiah 10:20-21, “Now it will come about in that day that the remnant of Israel, and those of the house of Jacob who have escaped, will never again rely on the one who struck them, but will truly rely on the LORD, the Holy One of Israel. 21A remnant will return, the remnant of Jacob, to the mighty God.”
-
Jer. 32:18, “who showest lovingkindness to thousands, but repayest the iniquity of fathers into the bosom of their children after them, O great and mighty God, the LORD of hosts is His name.”
“the WORD”
Here we have a very powerful connection “The Word”, the very one who is the “first and the last”, and the “beginning and the end” . Who is that? Do you know? It is Yeshua!
- Genesis 1:1 “In the beginning God (The Aleph and Tav תא), created the heavens and the earth”
- Isaiah 44:6 “Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel, And his Redeemer, the LORDof hosts: ‘I am the First and I am the Last; Besides Me there is no God. (The Lord Yeshua is the Aleph and Tav תא found within the Torah)
- John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
-
Revelation 1:8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God .
- Revelation 21:6 He said to me: “It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End”
-
Revelation 22:13″I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last”
- Revelation 19:13 And He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and His name is called The Word of God.
- John 1:14The Word became flesh and made His dwelling among us. We have seen His glory, the glory of the one and only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.
Who is coming back? Whose robe is dipped in blood when He returns? Who comes back with vengeance? On what year does He come? Who redeems?
Yom Kippur was the biblical holiday when when, (once per year )the High Priest could enter the Holy of Holies in the temple and call upon the Name of Yahweh to offer blood sacrifice for the sins of the people.
“In traditional Judaism, the day of Yom Kippur marks the climax of the ten day period of repentance called the “Days of Awe,” On Rosh Hashanah the destiny of the righteous are written in the Book of Life , and the destiny of the wicked, are written in the Book of Death”
Isn’t this interesting that we are “raptured” or taken UP to heaven on Feast of Trumpets, or otherwise known as Rosh Hashanah, spend 10 days at the wedding supper of the LAMB, then return WITH Yeshua after the 10 days on Yom Kippur for the great battle in Armageddon.
Yom Kippur, is a foreshadow of the Second Coming of the Messiah. Yeshua is the High-Priest, the Kohen Gadol (High Priest) after the order of Malki-Tzedek (Heb. 5:10, 6:20).
Cross References To THE Great And Mighty Day Of The Lord :
Joel 3:13 Put in the sickle, for the harvest is ripe. Come, tread, for the wine press is full; The vats overflow, for their wickedness is great.
Revelation 19:15 And from His mouth proceeds a sharp sword with which to strike down the nations, and He will rule them with an iron scepter. He treads the winepress of the fury of the wrath of God, the Almighty.
Isaiah 22:5 “For it is a day of trouble, and of treading down, and of perplexity by the Lord GOD of hosts in the valley of vision, breaking down the walls, and of crying to the mountains.”
Isaiah 59:17 He put on righteousness like a breastplate, And a helmet of salvation on His head; And He put on garments of vengeance for clothing And wrapped Himself with zeal as a mantle.
Mikah 7: What misery is mine! I am like one who gathers summer fruit at the gleaning of the vineyard; there is no cluster of grapes to eat, none of the early figs that I crave. The faithful have been swept from the land; not one upright person remains. Everyone lies in wait to shed blood; they hunt each other with nets. Both hands are skilled in doing evil; the ruler demands gifts, the judge accepts bribes, the powerful dictate what they desire—they all conspire together. The best of them is like a brier, the most upright worse than a thorn hedge. The day God visits you has come, the day your watchmen sound the alarm. Now is the time of your confusion.
“as gods”??
Why does the scriptures refer to this? Many muslims and skeptics ask this question
Psalm 82:6 “I said, ‘You are “gods”; you are all sons of the Most High.’
The simple understanding of this passage is the word “ gods” is equated with “children of the Most High.” That makes perfect sense.
Human beings are not literally gods, yet when we become born again, we get to partake in the authority given to us through Yeshua’s shed blood on the cross.
What does that mean exactly ?
- God is eternal spirit. Human beings are mortal flesh, with a spiritual component. The Holy Spirit comes and lives in side of us, ….. “The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God” Romans 8:16
We are given the authority and dominion over all things, such as the authority to calm the sea like Yeshua did in the boat. We are able to cast the demonic out in Yeshua’s name as another example. We are to be “filled with all the fullness of God”
-
“Moreover, he shall speak for you to the people; and it shall come about that he shall be as a mouth for you, and you shall be as God to him.” (Exodus 4:16).
-
“Then the Lord said to Moses, ‘See, I make you as God to Pharaoh, and your brother Aaron shall be your prophet.'” (Exodus 7:1).
Why was Moses going “as God” to Pharaoh?
Because Moses was given the authority and power to display powerful miracles that decimated much of Egypt.
Was Moses really a god?
Being “as God” regarded to power given to perform miracles such as the ones seen in Egypt. This is NOT the same thing as we see “in the beginning with God”. (John 1:1).
Moses was called a “god”; but, Moses was not called GOD. Rather, he would be “as God.”
There is only one real God (Gal. 4:8-9; Isaiah 44:6, 8).
“Besides Me there is no God”
Yeshua Proclaims That He Is The Aleph and Tav In Genesis 1:1.
He Points Back To Himself In Isaiah That Says “Besides Me there is no God” He claims He was the beginning and the end- The Almighty.
- Genesis 1:1 “In the beginning God (The Aleph and Tav תא), created the heavens and the earth”
- Isaiah 44:6 “Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel, And his Redeemer, the LORDof hosts: ‘I am the First and I am the Last; Besides Me there is no God. (The Lord Yeshua is the Aleph and Tav תא found within the Torah)
See below where YESHUA points back to these references in the OT that talk about HIMSELF:
- Yeshua In Revelation 1:8 “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End,” says the Lord, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” (The Aleph and Tav תא)
- In Revelation 1:11 saying, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,” and, “What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven churches which are in Asia: to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.” (The Aleph and Tav תא)
- In Revelation 21:6 He said to me, “It is done! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to him who thirsts. (The Aleph and Tav תא)
- Revelation 22:13“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.” (The Aleph and Tav תא)
“I am the first, and I am the last“
Again, we are seeing Yeshua point to the MOST important, most revealing verses in the OT, that talk exclusively about the Almighty God of Israel. He says them of Himself. Here is yet another example:
Isaiah 44:6 says: “Thus saith the Lord the King of Israel, and his redeemer the Lord of hosts; I am the first, and I am the last; and beside me there is no God.”
Revelation 1:17 says: “And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:”
“I have seen God face to face“
Did Jacob wrestle with an ANGEL, or did he wrestle with Yeshua Himself?
The Bible says that a mysterious person wrestled Jacob all night long, and Jacob wouldn’t quit until He blessed him. Some people have assumed this to be an angel, yet we see here that this person was a MAN, yet at the same time was GOD.
And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.
25 And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him.
26 And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.
27 And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.
28 And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.
29 And Jacob asked him, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there.
30 And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.
As we read, the scripture does not say that the being who wanted to wrestle was an ‘angel’ but a ‘man.’ Although the man does not give his name, Jacob understood that he had struggled with God, for he is quoted as stating “For I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved” (Genesis 32:30). Because of this, many believe the person who fought him was the member of the Godhead who became the Son – Yeshua Jesus, the same One who had appeared to both Abraham (Genesis 12:7; 17:1; 18:1) and Isaac (Genesis 26:1, 24) in the form of a ‘man.’
In the Old Testament God was seen (Exodus 6:2-3; 24:9-11; Num. 12:6-9; Acts 7:2), yet we know no man can see God (Exodus 33:20; John 1:18).
Genesis 12:7 ” Then the Lord appeared to Abram and said, “To your descendants I will give this land.”Genesis 17:1 “And when Abram was ninety years old and nine, the LORD appeared to Abram, and said unto him, I am the Almighty God; walk before me”Genesis 18:1-15And the Lord appeared unto him in the plains of Mamre: and he sat in the tent door in the heat of the day;.Genesis 26:2 “The LORD appeared to Isaac and said, “Do not go down to Egypt; live in the land where I tell you to live”Genesis 26:24 “And the LORD appeared unto him the same night, and said, I am the God of Abraham thy father: fear not, for I am with thee, and will bless thee, and multiply thy seed for my servant Abraham’s sake.”Numbers 12:6-8 And he said, Hear now my words: If there be a prophet among you, I the Lord will make myself known unto him in a vision, and will speak unto him in a dream. My servant Moses is not so, who is faithful in all mine house. With him will I speak mouth to mouth, (or the NIV face to face)
Exodus 33:11 Thus the LORD used to speak to Moses face to face, just as a man speaks to his friend. When Moses returned to the camp, his servant Joshua, the son of Nun, a young man, would not depart from the tent.
“….about the Son, He says, Your Throne, Oh God”
Why in Hebrews is the Son Referred to God?
Here are some very revealing references that talk about Yeshua Jesus.
Colossians 1:16 “For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:”
1 Corinthians 8:4-6 — As concerning therefore the eating of those things that are offered in sacrifice unto idols, we know that an idol is nothing in the world, and that there is none other God but one. For though there be that are called gods, whether in heaven or in earth, (as there be gods many, and lords many,) But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him.
Hebrews 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.
“He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of all creation; because by means of him all [other] things were created in the heavens and upon the earth.” – Col. 1:14-16
(Isaiah 44:24) – “Thus says the Lord, your Redeemer, and the one who formed you from the womb, “I, the Lord, am the maker of all things, stretching out the heavens by Myself, and spreading out the earth all alone.” All things created by/through Jesus (Colossians 1:16-17) – “For by Him all things were created, both in the heavens and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things have been created by Him and for Him. 17And He is before all things, and in Him all things hold together.”
Revelation 1:7. He went on to say, “I am He that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore (v. 18).” Jesus used the term again when he spoke to the church at Smyrna. He said, “These things saith the first and the last, which was dead, and is alive(Revelation 2:8).
Attributes Of Yeshua
- To Forgive Sins (Mark 2:5–7) …… something that God alone could do (Isaiah 43:25).
- Creator Of The Universe (John 1:3). Colossians 1:17 says Yeshua holds all things together.
- Resurrection From The Dead– “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up… but he spake of the temple of his body” (John 2:19, 21). The ability to raise His life back from the dead was the very sign that separated Him from anyone else who has ever lived.
- Eternal Glory with the Father (John 17:5),
- First And Last (Revelation 1:17),
- Judge Of All Humanity (John 5:27),
- The Bridegroom (Matthew 25:1; Isaiah 62:5),
- Light Of The World (John 8:12; Psalm 27:1).
- Was The Messiah God In The OT – reference to Jesus as God (Psalm 45:6 and Hebrews 1:8), Lord (Psalm 110:1 and Matthew 22:43-44), Ancient of Days (Daniel 7:9 and Mark 14:61-64), and as Messiah (John 4:26). These references affirm that He Is God.
- Accepted Worship – The Old Testament law commanded not to worship anyone but God alone, yet Yeshua accepted worship, which would otherwise be wrong if He was not God. The healed leper worshiped Him in (Matthew 8:2), the ruler who knelt before Jesus after his son had been healed (Matthew 9:18), the Canaanite woman (Matthew 15:25), the mother of James and John (Matthew 20:20), and a demon-possessed man (Mark 5:6). The disciples even prayed to Jesus (Acts 7:59) and in His name (John 14:6; 15:7).
- Yeshua’s Followers Recognized Yeshua As God. They called Him God (John 20:28; Colossians 2:9), referred to Yeshua as a deity, (John 4:42), and prayed to as part of the Godhead (Matthew 28:19; 2 Corinthians 13:14). John taught He was with God in the beginning as “the word” and that “the word was God” (John 1:1). Colossians 2:9 confirms, “For in him the whole fullness of deity dwells bodily.”
Yeshua IS God……..
- How can Jesus be called the Mighty God (Isaiah 9:6) if there is only one God in existence (Isaiah 44:6-8; 45:5)?
- Why did Jesus claim the divine name “I AM” for Himself in John 8:58? That refers to Exodus 3:14?
- “Call upon the name of the LORD” often referred to Psalm 116:4 was only used for God in the OT . The (greek, “KURIOS”) applied to Jesus in the NT (1 Cor. 1:2)
- How can Jesus be called the Mighty God (Isaiah 9:6) and “God” also be called the Mighty God in Isaiah 10:21?
- In the OT God was seen (Exodus 6:2-3; 24:9-11; Num. 12:6-9; Acts 7:2), yet no man can see God (Exodus 33:20; John 1:18). Revelation knowledge: (Light bulbs should be flashing on for you ) – It was not the Father that was seen in the OT (John 6:46). John 8:58.
- How can Jesus create all things (Col. 1:16-17), yet it is God who created all things by Himself (Isaiah 44:24)?
- The Pharisees even understood very clearly that Yeshua claimed to be God. Here we have the scriptures super clear that Yeshua claimed to be God many times. (John 8:58)
- How can Jesus be eternal? (Micah 5:1-2)
- How can Jesus be everywhere at once? (Matt. 28:20)?
- How can Jesus search the hearts and minds of the people? (Rev. 2:23)
- Thomas calls Jesus God in John 20:28, why is that ?
- God calls Jesus God in Heb. 1:8
- John states that Jesus was the Word which was God that became flesh (John 1:1, 14)
- John says that Jesus was ” . . . calling God His own Father, making Himself equal to God.” (John 5:18)
- How was it possible for a man who is not God (Jesus) to know all things? (John 21:17)
- How is it that Jesus can know all men? (John 16:30)
- How can Jesus be the exact representation of God? (Heb. 1:3)
- How can Jesus be the one who gives eternal life? (John 10:27-28)
- How can Jesus be our ONLY Lord and Master? (Jude 4)
- How was Jesus able to raise Himself from the dead, and over 500 see Him alive again?(John 2:19-21)
- Why was Jesus worshiped (Matt. 2:2, 11; 14:33; 28:9; John 9:35-38; Heb. 1:6) when He says to worship God only (Matt. 4:10)? (note that the same Greek word for worship is applied in each place.)
- Why did Jesus say you must honor him even as you honor the Father? (John 5:23)
- Then why is it that both the Father and the Son give life? (John 5:21)
- Then why did Jesus bear witness of Himself, and says the Father that sent Him also bears witness of Him?
(John 8:18; 14:6)
Conclusion
There is no difficulty here at understanding that Yeshua Jesus WAS who He claimed to be – The Almighty God. The Trinity is a doctrine that explains the fullness of God is three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. The Son is the Word, which was God and with God (John 1:1), that became flesh in Jesus (John 1:14). Since Jesus is the second person of the Trinity, and He has two natures, divine and human (Col. 2:9), we can then have Jesus being the creator and God being the creator alone. In other words, Jesus is God and God created all things alone.
Here is how you can prove the divinity of Yeshua and The Holy Spirit
