Psalm 45 applied to Jesus; affirms Christ's full divinity and eternal throne

The NAC affirms the traditional interpretation of Hebrews 1:8, which applies Psalm 45:6 to Jesus: 'Your throne, O God, is forever and ever.' This verse is understood as an explicit affirmation of Jesus' divinity and His status as God.

This interpretation grounds the NAC's Christology in the assertion that Jesus is called God directly in Scripture. The verse establishes the eternal nature of Christ's reign and His divine status coequal with the Father.
