No he didn't. In col 1:15 it says he was the first of god's creations
REv 3:14 the beginning of God's creations.
Joh 8:42 and 14:28 of john says the father is greater than i am.
They say well it was different when he went to heaven.
Stephen saw the heavens opened up and saw Jesus sitting at the right hand of God. He was doing God's will in coming to the earth. who did he pray to? He said, me nor the other angels know the day or the hour but only the father.
He said, not my will but yours be done. showing two wills.

John 1:1 In the beginning was the one who is called the Word. The Word was with God and was truly God.
John 1:2 From the very beginning the Word was with God.
John 1:3 And with this Word, God created all things. Nothing was made without the Word. Everything that was created
John 1:4 received its life from him, and his life gave light to everyone.
John 1:5 The light keeps shining in the dark, and darkness has never put it out.

Christianity is the only religion where the God they believe actually claimed to be God. Jesus claimed to be God, which makes him either a Liar, Lunatic, or else Lord God. There are no other options

Because the Bible says Jesus is God. John 1:1 Hebrew 1
Jesus himself in the Gospels in response to Pilate.

For me personally...it is not a matter of "think".
I know that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and that He was crucified for the sins of the world.
For me...it is about personal revelation...I have received my answer from God...and I am not tossed about with every wind of doctrine from man...I know in whom I trust and why.
I hope others "think" Jesus is God for the same reason.

Jesus never said that he was God.. he said that he was the SON OF GOD... I've never heard anyone say that he is a God.. he's a savior, a prophet and a messiah.. but not a God.

202 Jesus himself affirms that God is "the one Lord" whom you must love "with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength". At the same time Jesus gives us to understand that he himself is "the Lord". To confess that Jesus is Lord is distinctive of Christian faith. This is not contrary to belief in the One God. Nor does believing in the Holy Spirit as "Lord and giver of life" introduce any division into the One God:
We firmly believe and confess without reservation that there is only one true God, eternal infinite (immensus) and unchangeable, incomprehensible, almighty and ineffable, the Father and the Son and the Holy Spirit; three persons indeed, but one essence, substance or nature entirely simple.
252 The Church uses (I) the term "substance" (rendered also at times by "essence" or "nature") to designate the divine being in its unity, (II) the term "person" or "hypostasis" to designate the Father, Son and Holy Spirit in the real distinction among them, and (III) the term "relation" to designate the fact that their distinction lies in the relationship of each to the others.

Study the word and you will find out. He fulfilled prophecies that were written hundreds of years before His birth, that is historically acurate. Prophecy fulfillment is the proof of God. And He has done it, ppl just don't take the time to study His word and see it.

He is the prophet of God, and Jesus never said he is God
