Jesus' claim of His deity excited the opposition
of the Jews. They even took up stones but His
fearlessness stopped them from stoning Him.
Jesus resorted to Psalms 82:6 "Ye are gods;
and all of you are children of the most High."
that man is the offspring of God and made in
the image of God.
If God had sanctified His Son whom He had sent
into the world, it was not blasphemy for Him to
declare Himself as the Son of God.
