Throughout the New Testament, we find compelling evidence that Jesus performs the works that are typically attributed to God: ## Works Of God Credited To Jesus > [!Done]- Creation > ![[Jesus Is The Creator]] > [!Info]- Ulitmate Authority > ![[Jesus Claims Gods Authority]] > [!Danger]- Controls All Life And Death > ![[Jesus Claims To Control Life And Death]] > [!success]- Forgives Sins: > ![[Jesus Is The Forgiver Of Sins]] > [!failure]- Judges: > ![[Jesus Will Judge The Living And The Dead]] Jesus is portrayed as performing works traditionally attributed solely to God. This includes His role in **creation**, where Jesus is described as not only the agent through whom all things were made but was the one the made everything with His own power. Scriptures like [John 1:3](https://www.bible.com/bible/59/JHN.1.3) and [Colossians 1:16](https://www.bible.com/bible/59/COL.1.16) assert that Jesus was not only present at creation but actively maintains the cosmos, mirroring God's role as depicted in [Nehemiah 9:6](https://www.bible.com/bible/59/NEH.9.6) and [Isaiah 42:5](https://www.bible.com/bible/59/ISA.42.5). Jesus' **divine authority** is further evident in His teachings, where He speaks with ultimate truth and authority, transforming and fulfilling the law beyond the traditional interpretations of the scribes and Pharisees, as shown in [Matthew 5:20-22](https://www.bible.com/bible/59/MAT.5.20-22), [7:24-29](https://www.bible.com/bible/59/MAT.7.24-29). Moreover, Jesus' power over life and death, demonstrated through the **raising of the dead**, echoes God's sovereign power over life. His authority to **forgive sins** and His role as the **ultimate judge** of humanity showcase His ultimate position within heaven and His essential role in God's redemptive plan.
