Yes, very much so.
There are far too many references to cite, but here are some of the things he did and said, and the consequences. If you would like to know chapter and verse, I suggest you message me.
1. Jesus forgave others' sin. In the Jewish faith this was possible only for God and then only by sacrifice at the Temple. Yet Jesus forgave in his own name.
2. Jesus performed miracles in his own name, not God's. Moses' miracles, for example (eg the parting of the Red Sea) were performed in God's name, not Moses.
3. Jesus taught with his own authority ("You have heard it said...but I tell you this...")
4. Jesus used the name of God (YHWH = 'I am') on many occasions (eg 'I am the way, the truth and the life...', '...before Abraham was, I am...' and so on.
5. Jesus claimed that he and the Father 'are one', that 'I am in the Father and the Father is in me..', that 'he who has seen me has seen the Father' - plus many other identifications with the Father God and Holy Spirit.
6. The disciples recognised Jesus as God incarnate, After the resurrection, even Thomas the doubter fell to his knees before him and called Jesus 'My Lord and my God'.
7. Jesus accepted worship -- unthinkable blasphemy if he wasn't who he said he was.
8. Even those who opposed him charged him with claiming to be God. On several occasions they tried to stone him for blasphemy, only finallly managing the execution of Jesus for blasphemy (claiming to be God) after a clandestine plot against him.
This is all well and good, if Jesus's claims were not substantiated. We could say that he's deluded, a fool, or deceitful. But his life shows the exact opposite. He was down to earth, a perfect human being and displayed no signs of being a fool or deluded - quite the opposite, in fact. The resurrection was his last great miracle that turned the lives of the disciples and all those who follow him even today totally upside down. No man before or since has had that effect on humanity.
So his claims were truly substantiated, and that Jesus, we have to conclude, not only claimed to be divine, but wasdivine - Emmanuel, God in human form.
There is an evolution through the history of gospel authorship that at first denies then affirms this to be true:
Yes, according to Christian teachings, Jesus claimed to be divine and referred to himself as the Son of God. This belief forms the core of the Christian doctrine of the Holy Trinity.
The son of Jehovah god
Unless the rabbi was a Messianic Jew he would disagree. A Catholic priest would agree with the claim that Jesus was God.
They didn't, the people did- (we did) he claim he was the son of God
In a public place, he said that he was the Son of God, which he is totally.
Just as the belief that God exists is a matter of faith alone, so also the belief that Jesus is God is a matter of faith, based largely on the Gospel of John.
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.
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!]
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.
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.
An ancient text known as the Bible, of unknown authorship, claims that Jesus is god/the son of god. However, there is no other evidence and the grounds for this claim are questionable, as we do not know who wrote the Bible, and it was during a very superstitious time.
WHEN WE HEAR THE WORD SUPERNATURAL, WE TEND TO THINK OF SPIRITS, GHOSTS, OR SOME SORT OF PARANORMAL OTHER WORLDY ENTITY. jESUS DIDNT CLAIM TO BE SUPERNATURAL , HE DID SAY THAT HE WAS GOD, HIM AND GOD ARE THE SAME PERSON. HE WAS NOT OF THIS WORLD, HE WAS NOT SUPERNATURAL- HE WAS DIVINE, A DIVINE ENTITY NOT OF THIS WORLD.
Christianity prophets are people who claim they can speak to God. Examples would be Moses, Jesus, and Noah.
