Is Jesus God?
Short answer
Yes. The earliest Christians worshipped Jesus as God, and Jesus himself accepted that worship and made claims only God could make.
Deeper answer
Throughout the Gospels, Jesus forgives sins, receives worship, calms storms, and claims to exist before Abraham. These are not the actions or words of a mere prophet.
The doctrine of the Trinity — one God in three persons: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit — is the church's attempt to faithfully describe what the Bible reveals about who God is.
