| Summary: | Although Titus 2:13 is widely recognised as one of the New Testament's most important proof texts for the deity of Christ, scholarly debate around this text has focused so much on whether it calls Jesus "God" (θεός) that its other Christological implications have been largely overlooked. Titus 2:13 not only calls Jesus Christ "our great God and Saviour," but also depicts the second coming of Christ as the unveiling of his divine glory. His first coming revealed him as "our Saviour"; his return will show his glory, not only as Saviour, but also as "our great God." |
