Was Jesus created as an equal to God?
No, Jesus was not created as an equal being to God. After all, Jesus came into existence 2000 years ago. Let me explain. 2000 years ago, the second person of the Trinity, the Word, became flesh (John 1:1,14) and was born through the Virgin Mary. His name is Jesus....

For the Christian, the answer is both yes and no. Yes, we should fear God because He is the Almighty Creator who can discipline us should we rebel against Him. He is so holy and so awesome that being in His presence brings an inspiring fear. Consider Isa. 6:4-5...
