The True God and His Messiah: A Case Against the Deity of Christ

By Andrew Griffin

Putting Jesus in His Place: The Case for the Deity of Christ by Robert M. Bowman Jr. and J. Ed Komoszewski has become one of the most highly praised modern defenses of the deity of Christ. Kenneth Boa called it "the finest and most comprehensive apologetic for the deity of Christ" he had encountered, while Richard Bauckham praised its arguments as being grounded in "the best of recent scholarship."

The True God and His Messiah offers a 21-chapter, chapter-by-chapter response to that case. It examines the biblical texts, Greek and Hebrew, historical background, and modern scholarship behind the claim that Jesus is God, while asking whether the conclusions drawn from that evidence are actually warranted.

But the book is not simply an argument against the deity of Christ. It presents a positive biblical picture of Jesus as God's Messiah, given the highest place next to God and entrusted with extraordinary authority. In doing so, it explores the relationship between God, Jesus, and humanity, and what Jesus' exaltation reveals about God's purpose for human beings.

Written for Trinitarians, Biblical Unitarians, Oneness Pentecostals, pastors, apologists, students, and everyday Christians, The True God and His Messiah offers a clear and accessible examination of what Scripture says about the identity of Jesus and his relationship to the one true God, drawing on careful exegesis, historical context, and a wide range of respected voices in biblical studies.
