A good introduction into the theology behind the claim to deity for the Lord Jesus Christ. Helps to explain what the Bible says about this point of doctrine in a way that is easy for the reader to understand. I wouldn't stop with this book, but would use it as a starting point for the person interested in truly understanding Christian doctrine from a biblical viewpoint. As can be seen from some of the other reviewers, this is the sort of book which Muslims won't like, if they have their minds closed and are unwilling to consider other viewpoints.... Overall a good introductory work.

Jesus has all the divine qualities of God as Author Sherly Isaac has showed in her book. Of course He was no ordinary man. Not only author gave evidence from Bible but also from Koran that Jesus was holy or without sin (Koran 19:19)... called word of God and Spirit of God.

These are the titles which no ordinary person can have for himself. More than that the mighty God came down to save human being. Author has done a great job in her book. Truly, a must read book.

Excellent book. It deals with many questions frequently asked by people in great details. It compares and tries to find answer who Jesus really is. Great effort by the author. Even if you are not a muslim it gives lot of answers that were not known before. Specially after 9/11 it makes sense to know more about Islam and Christianity.

Sherly Isaac has done an admirable job of presenting the Christ of the Bible. She has provided more than ample evidence concerning the diety of Christ. If anyone has any doubts as to who Christ is and what He has done for them, I would highly recommend Ms. Isaac's work.

I found this book to lack depth, perhaps it is the lack of education on behalf of the author. The author is a novice.

I have read several books about the Messiah, the Christ or the Anointed One. I have further read books about the nature of God, including His substance, nature and purpose.

I would avoid this book, it struggles to keep your attention and has a difficult time staying focused.

(...)

the "proof" this author uses is pathetic and desperate, in response to the critics asking "where did Jesus EVER say "I AM GOD", this author childishly answers "Was there ever any need for him to?"

So this book wants us to be ignorant to the fact that God said "I AM GOD" in the OT nearly 200 times, yet Jesus NEVER said it once?

Yes, Jesus needed to say "I AM GOD" because the fact that he ran from rock throwing Jews and could not save himself makes most of the world skeptical that he can save anyone.

Don't waste your time or money on juvenile chicken feed. Instead get some scholarly books sold on amazon such as;

The Doctrine of the Trinity: Christianity's Self-Inflicted Wound by Sir Anthony Buzzard

When Jesus Became God: The Struggle to Define Christianity during the Last Days of Rome by Richard E. Rubenstein

Jesus-God or the Son of God? A Comparison of the Arguments by Brian Holt

Paganism and Christianity, 100-425 C.E.: A Sourcebook by Ramsay MacMullen

This is a muslim book, not a christian one. Allah, aka Satan, always appears as an angel of light. So he is trying to hide this as a "christian" book.
