Yes, in one sense. He said to have seen him was to have seen the father. You could also say he did not claim equality with God as that would be to say he was equal to God but distinct from him. He is God. You are not equal to yourself and you would never say you were equal to yourself. Only another person could claim to be equal to you.
AnswerYes, Jesus claimed equality with God because He was God incarnate [that is, 100% God and also 100% Man - and don't ask me to explain how!]

Yes, you are considered to be God's child..and he loves you as his child. So technically you are a son of God not THE Son of God. Jesus the Messiah. You are a special creation of our Holy Father.
Did Jesus ever claim to be God incarnate?
In the New Testament, Jesus did make claims that could be interpreted as identifying himself with God, such as saying "I and the Father are one" (John 10:30) and accepting worship from his followers (Matthew 14:33). This has led many Christians to believe that Jesus viewed himself as the Son of God and therefore divine in nature.
Did Jesus utter the words you are the Son of God?
Jesus declared himself to be the Son of God because He is one of three that makes up the Godhead...the other two are the Father and the Holy Ghost. God further vouched for this claim when He said, "This is my only begotten Son, in Him I'm very well pleased." Throughout the New Testament you'll find many verses that mention God sending His only Son for our sins. It wasn't a claim to make Him (Jesus) sound big for attention, but it was an honest claim that resulted in him being arrested for blasphemy and getting crucified.
Where in the Bible is there proof that Jesus is God?
