g) The fullness of deity is in Jesus (Colossians 1:19).

Common Names in the Two Testaments
Isaiah 7:14 says there would be one born called Emmanuel, that is, "God with us". Psalm 110:1 says, "The Lord said to my Lord…". Who is this Lord who was prophesied about 1,000 years before Jesus. By the way, this is one of the most quoted Old Testament verses in the New Testament. This is an unsolvable mystery to Muslims as it is to Jews. Jesus answered this riddle, by saying it referred to himself.
A Muslim might wonder if these parts were a later addition. However, not only do Suras 5:46-48, 3:48 show that Jesus was taught the Torah and confirmed God’s Word, but the Dead Sea Scrolls include many copies of the Old Testament from the time of Jesus.
The Old Testament also had many names for God, and this section proves the New Testament applied these names to Jesus. This is broken down to three lines in each descritpion below. The first being the Title of God, then The Father and the Jesus.
