Did Jesus Know He was God?
A belief, which is occasionally challenged, even today, is that Jesus knew that He was God. Some argue that Jesus
grew in the knowledge that He was God, but was not born knowing this. As can be seen from the argument above
about Jesus being truly and fully God from His conception, since Jesus was truly God knowing all things, He must
have been born knowing all things, including that He is God. If He were born not knowing this, then He could not be
God.
The only real objection to this belief is based on the human idea that a baby is born knowing virtually nothing. How,
people ask, could Jesus be a baby and yet know that He is God? The answer is that it is just as easy for God to be a
baby as it is for Him to be an adult man. In each case, the infinite God takes on a limited, weak human nature at the
same time that He is infinite God.
Pope Pius XII taught, in his Encyclical Mystici Corporis (“The Mystical Body” - 1943): “By means of the Beatific
Vision (the sight of God in Heaven), which He enjoyed from the time when he was received into the womb of the
Mother of God, He has for ever and continuously had present to Him all the members of His mystical Body,
and embraced them with His saving love.” (N.D. 661).
In other words Jesus possessed, in His human soul, the same immediate vision of God, which all the saints and angels
in heaven have. This means that Jesus was, at the same time, both a pilgrim on earth like us and a possessor of the
immediate vision of God. Even His human nature is endowed with an abundance of supernatural gifts.
He knows all things - past, present and future.
Jesus, throughout the Gospels, claimed to be the Son of God. When He spoke of His relation to God He said “My
Father” (Matthew 25:34 and 26:29; Luke 2:49 and 24:49; John 20:17.) When He spoke of the disciples’ relation to
God, He said “Your Father”. Even when teaching the “Our Father”, He told the disciples how they were to pray to the
Father (Matthew 6:9). Jesus knew that He was sublime over all creatures, men and angels.
He transcends the Prophets and Kings of the Old Testament (Matthew 12:41).
The angels are His servants. They appear and minister to Him (Matthew 4:11, Mark 1:13).
In Matthew 23:34 and Luke 11:49, He asserts of Himself what in the Old Testament is said of Yahweh,
making Himself equal to God.
He describes Himself as the “Lord of the Sabbath” (Matthew 12:8, Mark 2:28, Luke 6:5)
There can be no doubt, from a reading of the gospels and study of the Church’s interpretation of these passages.
Jesus clearly claims to be God.

Primero Jesús pregunta a los discípulos,
Qué dice la gente de Él? (Mc 8,27-30; Mt 16,13-20; Lc 9,18-21). En el evangelio, las opiniones están divididas:
unos piensan que es un santo y otros que está endemoniado, unos que es un profeta de Dios y otros que es
un embaucador. Los discípulos solo se atreven a exponer las positivas, que identifican a Jesús con un profeta.
Pero a Jesús no le sirve lo que dice la gente. Pregunta directamente a sus discípulos (y a cada uno de
nosotros): ¿Quién soy yo para ti?, ¿qué lugar ocupo en tu vida? En los tres evangelios, Pedro contesta en
nombre de los doce: «Tú eres el mesías» (Mc 8,29), «Tú eres el mesías de Dios» (Lc 9,20), «Tú eres el mesías,
el Hijo de Dios vivo» (Mt 16,16). San Juan también recoge una confesión similar de Pedro, aunque en otro
contexto: «Tú eres el Santo de Dios» (Jn 6,69). Vemos que hay una progresiva profundización en la identidad
de Jesús por parte de los primeros cristianos, la cual queda reflejada en estos textos.
También hoy existen distintas opiniones sobre quién es Jesús. Muchos lo consideran un fundador religioso
entre otros, un gran personaje de la antigüedad. Incluso algunos libros escritos por exegetas y teólogos lo
presentan como un personaje del pasado, del que se pueden estudiar sus huellas y su mensaje, pero con el
que no se puede entrar en contacto. Este es el gran peligro del método histórico crítico. Es una herramienta
de trabajo importante, porque Jesús es un personaje de la historia y los evangelistas han escrito sus libros con
las imágenes y las maneras de narrar propias de su época, por lo que hay que usarlo en el estudio de la Biblia.
Porque la Biblia es una obra humana, escrita por hombres, con los medios propios de su época y de su
ambiente, hay que tratarla como un texto literario, estudiando el contexto histórico, las peculiaridades
lingüísticas, el proceso de redacción de los textos, los géneros literarios.
Pero también debemos recordar que los estudios «científicos» sobre la Biblia son insuficientes, pues solo
abarcan la dimensión humana de la Escritura. Para poder captar su sentido profundo, siempre se debe tener
presente que esos textos fueron escritos desde la fe, para transmitir la fe, y que solo alcanzan su verdadero
sentido si son leídos con fe. Más aún: esos libros escritos por hombres son, al mismo tiempo, textos
inspirados, Palabra de Dios dirigida a los hombres, por lo que deben ser leídos teniendo en cuenta esta
peculiaridad, que los hace distintos de cualquier otro libro. Si se olvida esto, se pueden escribir muchas
páginas sobre su origen y evolución, pero no sobre su verdadero significado. Recordemos que «la Palabra de
Dios es viva y eficaz» (Heb 4,12), por lo que tenemos que dejarnos interpelar por ella, pues solo el que
escucha la Palabra y la pone en práctica entrará en el reino de los cielos (cf. Mt 7,24ss).
vamos a profundizar en el misterio de Jesucristo, para poder darle una respuesta personal. EWTN
