AnswerThe earliest mention of Jesus as God is in John's Gospel, with verse 1:1 saying, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God," although this could also be read as "the Word was a God." To further confuse this, verse 2 says, "The same was in the beginning with God." Nevertheless, it is John's Gospel that set Christianity on the path of seeing Jesus as God, not merely the son of God.
