The Quran mentions the Bible, or rather, the Torah and the Gospel, in several verses. Here are some examples:

· “And We sent, following in their footsteps, Jesus, the son of Mary, confirming that which came before him in the Torah; and We gave him the Gospel, in which was guidance and light and confirming that which preceded it of the Torah as guidance and instruction for the righteous.” (Quran 5:46)

· “And We have sent down to you the Book in truth, confirming that which preceded it of the Scripture and a witness over it. So judge between them by what Allah has revealed and do not follow their inclinations away from what has come to you of the truth.” (Quran 5:48)

· “Say, ‘O People of the Scripture, you are not [standing] on anything [firm] until you uphold [the law of] the Torah, the Gospel, and what has been revealed to you from your Lord.’” (Quran 5:68)

These verses acknowledge the validity of the Torah and the Gospel, which are parts of the Bible, as revelations from God.
However, it’s important to note that Muslim scholars and theologians have different interpretations of these verses, and some may argue that the Quran only confirms the original, unaltered revelations, not the current forms of the Bible. Though, there are no earlier versions of the Bible that do not confirm Jesus is God.

In contrast to belief in Islam, Jesus says he is God in the Bible. 

“I and the Father are one. The Jews then took up stones to stone him. Jesus answered them: Many good works I have shewed you from my Father; for which of these works do you stone me? The Jews answered him: For a good work we stone thee not, but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, maketh thyself God.”

Does Jesus clearly say he is God?

Yes, according to Christian doctrine and the teachings of the Bible, Jesus is indeed God. This belief is central to the Christian faith, encapsulating the doctrine of the Trinity, which states that God exists as three persons in one essence: God the Father, God the Son (Jesus Christ), and God the Holy Spirit. Several passages throughout the New Testament affirm the divinity of Jesus.

In the Gospel of John, Jesus is described as the Word, and it is stated, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God” (John 1:1). This passage establishes the eternal presence of Jesus (the Word) with God and identifies Him as God. Furthermore, John 1:14 says, “And the Word became flesh and dwelt among us, and we have seen his glory, glory as of the only Son from the Father, full of grace and truth.” This indicates that Jesus, the Word, became human and lived among humanity, revealing His divine nature.

Another significant passage can be found in Philippians 2:5-6, where Paul writes, “Have this mind among yourselves, which is yours in Christ Jesus, who, though he was in the form of God, did not count equality with God a thing to be grasped.” This suggests that Jesus possessed the very nature of God but chose to humble Himself by taking on human form and dying on the cross for humanity’s sins.

Jesus Himself made claims about His divine nature that equated Him with God. In John 10:30, Jesus states, “I and the Father are one,” which led to accusations of blasphemy from Jewish leaders because He was claiming to be God. In John 8:58, Jesus declares, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I am.” This statement echoes God’s self-identification to Moses in Exodus 3:14, where God says, “I AM WHO I AM.” Jesus’ use of “I AM” was a direct claim to divinity, understood as such by His contemporaries.

Furthermore, the role of Jesus in salvation underscores His divinity. In Acts 4:12, Peter declares, “And there is salvation in no one else, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” This salvation comes through Jesus because of His unique nature as fully God and fully man, enabling Him to bridge the gap between a holy God and sinful humanity through His sacrificial death and resurrection.

The belief in Jesus as God is further supported by the worship He receives, both in His earthly ministry and after His resurrection. Thomas’s declaration in John 20:28, “My Lord and my God!” upon seeing the risen Christ, and Jesus’ acceptance of that worship, affirm His divine status.

In summary, the Bible affirms the divinity of Jesus through His association with God, His unique attributes, His actions, His teachings, and the worship He receives. This belief is foundational to the Christian faith, shaping its understanding of God, salvation, and the nature of Jesus Christ.
