The New Testament does not present Jesus merely as a good teacher. The Word was God and became flesh; Thomas addressed the risen Jesus as 'My Lord and my God'; all the fulness of the Godhead dwells bodily in Christ; and Hebrews addresses the Son, 'Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever.' His deity must be held together with His genuine humanity.
