“Is Jesus God?” That is such a silly question. It is silly because normally ‘God’ is a proper noun, identifying an individual person who is the Father of Jesus. A less silly question: In what sense is Jesus divine? Well, yes, divine, in the sense that the Holy Spirit of God caused the conception in Mary such that Jesus was by this holy event, begotten of God. God only ever begat one son this way, begetting Jesus. So Jesus is the only-begotten of God, the Son of God in this unique sense. God purposed this before creating anything and God so loved this Son that the creating of all things by God is on behalf of this Son. It is all made and all functions, all of Nature created by God, with Jesus at the heart of things.
