Summary of Did the First Christians Worship Jesus?

James Dunn introduces readers to the key passages that must be examined when trying to understand what the New Testament says about worshipping Jesus. Dunn, an internationally respected scholar, examines the key texts that have led Christians to believe that Jesus is God and worship him as part of the Trinity. But what did the New Testament writers say about worshipping Jesus? Did they portray him as God, someone whom we should worship? Or did they see him as a great prophet like Moses or Elijah?

Here, James Dunn introduces readers to the key New Testament passages that must be examined when trying to understand this important topic. He argues that we find a clear sense that Jesus enables worship, that Jesus is in a profound way the place and means of worship. Equally, for the first Christians Jesus was seen to be not only the one by whom believers come to God, but also the one by whom God has come to believers.
