Comparing O.T. verses with the New.

[placebofactor]

To prove positively who Jesus Christ is, I will compare Old Testament verses with New Testament verses. They give evidence that Jesus Christ is the God of the Old Testament and that He is the one spoken of by the prophets.

Jesus said to his disciples, in Luke 24:44-45, "All things must be fulfilled, which were written in the law of Moses, and in the prophets, and in the psalms, concerning ME. Then opened He their understanding."

I will substitute the word "Jehovah" for "LORD" because it is acknowledged by scholars worldwide to be the correct rendering wherever the latter is printed in all upper-case.

Let’s begin with Isaiah 43:3, "For I am Jehovah thy God, the Holy One of Israel, thy Savior." Compare with,
2 Peter 3:18, "Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ." This epithet descriptive of Christ in the N.T. is borrowed from the O.T. Peter states that Jesus is our Savior, and Isaiah states that Jehovah is the Savior.

Zechariah 12:10, "I (Jehovah) will pour upon the house of David and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplication: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn." Compare with John 19:34, "The soldiers with a spear pierced His (Christ's) side."
John 19:38, "And again another Scripture saith, they shall look on Him (Christ) whom they have pierced." with
Revelation 1:7, "He cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see Him, and they also (the Jews) which pierced Him."

Zechariah states that it is Jehovah who is pierced, and we know it was Jesus who had been pierced by the Roman soldier.
Isaiah 43:11, "I, even I, am Jehovah: and besides me there is no Savior." Compare with,
Acts 4:12, "For there is none other name (Jesus) under heaven given among men whereby we must be saved."
Isaiah said there is no other Savior but Jehovah. Acts states that Jesus is our Savior.

Psalms 16:8, "I have set Jehovah always before me; because He is always at my right hand, I shall not be moved." Compare with,
Acts 2:25. "For David speaks concerning Him (Jesus), I foresaw the LORD always before my face; He is on my right hand, that I should not be moved."
Peter applies his quotation from David directly to Christ as the one spoken of. David speaks of Jehovah; Peter applies it to Christ.

Isaiah 40:3, "The voice of him (John the Baptist) that cries in the wilderness, prepare ye the way of Jehovah, make straight in the desert a highway for our God." Compare with,
Matthew 3:3, “For this is he that was spoken of by the prophet Esaias, saying, the voice of one (John) crying in the wilderness, prepare ye the way of the Lord (Jesus,)" make His paths straight."
Isaiah said the person crying in the wilderness was preparing the way for Jehovah. Matthew is saying that John the Baptist was the voice in the wilderness who was preparing the way for Jesus.

Isaiah 6:9-10, "Hear ye indeed, but understand not; and see ye indeed, but perceive not, make the heart of this people fat, and make their ears heavy, and shut their eyes; lest they see with their eyes, and hear with their ears, and understand with their hearts, and convert and be healed." Compare with,
John 12:40 describes the works of Jesus and says the people believed not. Verse 40, quoting Isaiah, and what Isaiah saw, was the glory of Christ, and spoke of Christ when he said, Isaiah 6:5, "Mine eyes have seen the King, the Lord of hosts."
The conclusions are unavoidable. Jesus is the King, Jehovah of Hosts.

Exodus 17:2, "Moses said unto them, wherefore do ye tempt Jehovah. Compare with,
Psalms 28:56, "They tempted and provoked the Most High God."
1 Corinthians 10:9, "Neither let us tempt Christ, as some of them also tempted, and were destroyed of serpents.”
The same historical facts are being alluded to here. Both Moses and David said the Israelites tempted Jehovah. Paul stated that it was Christ they had tempted.

Placebofactor didn't answer 1213's question: If Jesus is Jehovah, who is the second Lord in this (Psalm 110:1)?

And onewithhim didn't answer Difflugia's question. What Greek "accounts" treat proskuneo as meaning different things depending on the target?

There is an account of a man falling down and proskuneo-ing a man of high status. (Matthew 18:26) "Worship" is "the rendering of reverent honor or homage." So with that in mind, Jesus is deserving of such honor. We just don't worship him as God Almighty. We worship the Father as God Almighty.

Yes, that's a confirmation that your church practiced "henotheism" rather than "monotheistic" claim.
