Are you using those Bible references to say that Jesus is God?

Heb 1:8 seems pretty solid evidence.

I agree with you, however, I was wondering if that was why James posted those references.

It is usually nice to post a comment about quoted references, which James didn't do.

Who spoke to Moses from the burning bush?

Quote:
Exodus 3:4 And when the LORD (Jehovah) saw that he (Moses) turned aside to see, God called unto him out of the midst of the bush, and said, Moses, Moses. And he said, Here am I.
3:6 Moreover he said, I [am] the God of thy father, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob. And Moses hid his face; for he was afraid to look upon God.
3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.


Exodus makes it plain that it was Jehovah God Who spoke to Moses and His name is "I AM".

Now look at Jesus words:

Quote:
John 8:58 Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
8:59 Then took they up stones to cast at him:


Here Jesus refers to the name of God, given to Moses to express the idea of the eternal presence, and claimed it as
His own.


Jesus is God manifested.
It was He who talked to Moses from the burning bush.

Jesus said:
Quote:
John 1:18 No man has seen God at any time; the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he has declared him.



Yet we read in:
Quote:
Exodus 24:9 Then went up (on Mount Sinai) Moses, and Aaron, Nadab, and Abihu, and seventy of the elders of Israel:
24:10 And they saw the God of Israel: and [there was] under his feet as it were a paved work of a sapphire stone, and as it were the body of heaven in [his] clearness.


Who did they see?
I believe they saw Jesus (this was before He took on humanity)

Jesus is not God the Father, but He is one with the Father, and He is God!

Quote:
John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
1:2 The same was in the beginning with God.
