Jesus let people know that he was the way to get people close to Jehovah God, enabling them to establish a relationship with Him. He was "the way and the truth and the life". (John 14:6) He was "the truth" in the sense that what was prophesied about him through the centuries was proven true. He was "the way" in the sense that he was necessary to communicate with Jehovah, both as a mediator (1 Timothy 2:5) and a means of mankind's sins being covered through his sacrifice. (1 John 2:1-2) Jesus was "the life" in that if a person exercised faith in his sacrifice, they could attain the life that Adam lost-Eternal life. (John 3:16)

There were also times when Jesus let people know he was the Son of Jehovah God (Matthew 16:15-17), as well as his role of Messiah. (John 4:25-26)

Did Jesus call himself christ?

CHRIST: This title from the Greek khri.stos' is equivalent to the Hebrew Ma.shi'ach, " Messiah; Anointed One." Read Matthew 2: 4 " Christ" is not a mere appelative added to distinguish the Lord Jesus from others of the same name; it is an official title. The coming of the Christ, the one whom Jehovah would anoint with his spirit to be the messianic King, had been foretold centuries before Jesus' birth. Read Daniel 9: 25, 26. However, at his birth, Jesus was not yet the Anointed One or Christ. In foretelling his birth, the angel instructed Joseph: " You must call his name Jesus." Read Matthew 1: 21. But when the shepherds near Bethlehem were given the angelic announcement, in anticipation of Jesus' future role they were told: " There was born to you today a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord," that is, who" who is to be Christ the lord. Read Luke 2: 11. The personal name of Jesus followed by the title Christ may call attention to the person himself and that he is the one who became the Anointed One of Jehovah. This occurred when he reached about 30 years of age, was baptized in water, and was anointed with Jehovah God's spirit visibly observed in the form of a dove descending upon him. Read Matthew 3: 13-17. So to answer your question, which is: Did Jesus call himself Christ? The answer is: It is his Father Jehovah who made his Son Jesus to be known as Christ, as it is confirmed in the Scriptures above.
