If you do not believe that Jesus is God in the flesh as He claimed to be, how can you consider Him to be a good teacher or a prophet?
Many places in the New Testament, Jesus claimed to be God (John 8:58, 10:30 are obvious examples). If He was not really God, then He must have been either a lunatic, who really thought that He was God, or else He was a con-man who deceived people.
Why would you think a lunatic or a con-man was a good teacher?
(And if you think that the Biblical writers just "made up" Jesus' claim to deity, how can you trust that His teachings, which they wrote about, were really good?)
