How do you know Jesus was not just an average man?

[jenn]

Having faith in things we cannot see,  

jn20:29 Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and yet have believed.



It's hard to believe in a God whom you cannot touch, see, and hear. But He comes to live in the bible and in our hearts. Everything He did was beyond a mere mortal. How do I know it is by faith in what He said and what He has done in my own life.And here are some other reasons that show He is more than a man , can a man rise from the dead? Can a man calm the winds and waters ? or have 12 legions of angels come and rescue them if they asked?  

Jesus was here in the beginnig, He is the word, He is God in flesh,

jn1:1 In  the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.


jn1:14 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.
 
He is the mediator,
1tim2:5 For there is one God, and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus;

He created all things,

jn1:3 All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

He is the savior,
1jn4:14 And we have seen and do testify that the Father sent the Son to be the Saviour of the world.

He saves lives,
heb5:25 Wherefore  he is able also to save them to the uttermost that come unto God by him, seeing he ever liveth to make intercession for them.

luke19:10 For the Son of man is come to seek and to save that which was lost.

 He died and rose again,
1thess4:14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.


 He is and always will be.

 13 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.
