As God He is omnipotent; yet, on one occasion at least, He could do no mighty works because of the unbelief of men. c) Omnipresence. Matt. 18:20--"For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them." He is with every missionary (Matt. 28:20). He is prayed to by Christians in every place (1 Cor. 1:2). Prayer would be a mockery if we were not assured that Christ is everywhere present to hear. He fills all things, every place (Eph. 1:23). But such an all pervading presence is true only of Deity. 6. HIS NAME IS COUPLED WITH THAT OF GOD THE FATHER. The manner in which the name of Jesus Christ is coupled with that of God the Father clearly implies equality of the Son with the Father. Compare the following: a) The Apostolic Benediction. 2 Cor. 13:14. Here the Son equally with the Father is the bestower of grace. b) The Baptismal Formula. Matt. 28:19; Acts 2:38. "In the name," not the names (plural). How would it sound to say, "In the name of the Father" _and of Moses?_ Would it not seem sacrilegious? Can we imagine the effect of such words on the apostles? c) Other Passages. John 14:23--"We will come: the Father and I." 17:3--"And this is life eternal that they might know thee, the only true God, _and Jesus Christ."_ The content of saving faith includes belief in Jesus Christ equally with the Father. 10:30--"I and my Father are one." "One" is neuter, not masculine, meaning that Jesus and the Father constitute one power by which the salvation of man is secured. 2 Thess. 2:16, 17--"Now our Lord Jesus Christ himself, and God, even our Father...comfort your hearts." These two names, with a verb in the singular, intimate the oneness of the Father with the Son. 7. THE SELF-CONSCIOUSNESS OF JESUS REGARDING HIS OWN PERSON AND WORK. It will be interesting to search the Gospel records to ascertain what was in the mind of Jesus concerning Himself--His relation to the Father in particular. What bearing has the testimony of Jesus upon the question of His deity? Is the present Christian consciousness borne out by the Gospel narratives? Is Jesus Christ a man of a much higher type of faith than ours, yet one with whom we believe in God? Or is He, equally with God, the object of our faith? Do we believe _with Him_, or _on_ Him? Is there any indication in the words ascribed to Jesus, as recorded in the Gospels, of a consciousness on His part of His unique relation to God the Father? Is it Jesus Himself who is responsible for the Christian's consciousness concerning His deity, or is the Church reading into the Gospel accounts something that is not really there? Let us see. a) As Set Forth in the Narrative of His Visit to the Temple.
