Did Jesus make statements reguarding his status, the words, the will and the power he used ? Let us find out.
WORDS
Joh 7:16 Jesus answered them and said, "My doctrine is not Mine, but His
who sent Me.
Joh 14:24 "He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word
which you hear is not Mine but the Father's who sent Me.
Joh 12:49 "For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who
sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak.
WILL
Joh 4:34 Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of him who sent
me, and to accomplish his work.
Joh 6:38 "For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but
the will of Him who sent Me.
Lu 22:42 saying, "Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me;
nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done."
POWER
Joh 5:30 "I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment
is righteous, because I do not seek My own will but the will of the
Father who sent Me.
Joh 8:42 Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me,
for I proceeded and came forth from God; I came not of my own accord,
but he sent me.
KNOWLEDGE
Mr 13:32 "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in
heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.
Mt 24:36 "But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of
heaven, but My Father only.
Joh 7:16 So Jesus answered them, "My teaching is not mine, but his who
sent me;
STATUS
Mt 7:21 "Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the
kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.
Mr 10:18 And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good
but God alone.
8:50 "And I do not seek My own glory; there is One who seeks and judges.
Some Christians, (not all) claim that Jesus implied that he was God. From the above verses, we
see that Jesus denied being God. It now leaves the Christians who believe Jesus is God to provide
just one single verse in the Bible where Jesus says "I am God". There is no such verse, so we see from
the many quotes above, that the House did not belong to Jesus, it belonged to the ONE WHO
SENT him

SMH73448 answered your question very well with some wonderful verses about the divinity of Christ. Another good place to look in John 8:58 where Jesus calls Himself the "I AM" which is the name God gave Himself when speaking with Moses in Exodus 3:14. Further more there are other Scriptural references to the deity of Jesus like Titus 2:13, "Looking for the blessed hope and glorious appearing of our great God and Savior Jesus Christ."
Plus if you really look at the verses you quoted show me one where Jesus says He is not God. His teaching was not His but His Father's because He and the Father are One. His will was not His own but the Father's as He and the Father are One. Jesus lived as our example choosing not to use certain aspects of His deity while on earth but at no time did He ever cease being God.
When Jesus said why do you call Me good? No one is good bu God alone? Jesus is not saying He is not God He was questioning the young man to see if he recognized Jesus as God. He did not say I am not good and I am not God. He said you call me good you know only God is good.
If you are going to take all that time to read through Scripture to get those quotes why don't you look at what is actually being said instead of twisting the Word of God.

There is no such thing as the Trinity, below are some scriptures to prove that there is only "one God"
“Concerning that day and hour nobody knows, neither the angels of the heavens nor the Son, but only the Father.” (Matthew 24:36) How do these words confirm that Jesus is not Almighty God?
Jesus says that the Father knows more than the Son does. If Jesus were part of Almighty God, however, he would know the same facts as his Father. So, then, the Son and the Father cannot be equal. Yet, some will say: ‘Jesus had two natures. Here he speaks as a man.’ But even if that were so, what about the holy spirit? If it is part of the same God as the Father, why does Jesus not say that it knows what the Father knows?
1st of all Jesus said: He pointed to God as the Source of his life, saying, “I live because of the Father.” According to the context, this meant that his life resulted from or was caused by his Father, even as the gaining of life by dying men would result from their faith in Jesus’ ransom sacrifice. Joh 6:56, 57.
Jesus’ being called the “only-begotten Son” (Joh 1:14; 3:16, 18) does not mean that the other spirit creatures produced were not God’s sons, for they are called sons as well. (Ge 6:2, 4; Job 1:6) However, by virtue of his being the sole direct creation of his Father, the firstborn Son was unique, different from all others of God’s sons, all of whom were created or begotten by Jehovah through that firstborn Son. So “the Word” was Jehovah’s “only-begotten Son” in a particular sense,
Jesus is also “Mighty God” and “Eternal Father.” This does not mean that he usurps the authority and position of Jehovah, who is “God our Father.” (2 Corinthians 1:2) “He [Jesus] . . . gave no consideration to a seizure, namely, that he should be equal to God.” (Philippians 2:6) He is called Mighty God, not Almighty God. Jesus never thought of himself as God Almighty, for he spoke of his Father as “the only true God,” that is, the only God who should be worshiped. (John 17:3;
Rev. 1:1; 3:14, RS: “The revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him, why did God have to give the revelation to Jesus, if he is God? .
Does the Bible teach that none of those who are said to be included in the Trinity is greater or less than another, that all are equal, that all are almighty? Mark 13:32, RS: “Of that day or that hour no ones knows, not even the angels in heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.” (Of course, that would not be the case if Father, Son, and Holy Spirit were coequal, comprising one Godhead. And if, as some suggest, the Son was limited by his human nature from knowing, the question remains, Why did the Holy Spirit not know?)
John 14:28, RS: “[Jesus said:] If you loved me, you would have rejoiced, because I go to the Father; for the Father is greater than I.”
1 Cor. 11:3, RS: “I want you to understand that the head of every man is Christ, the head of a woman is her husband, and the head of Christ is God.” (Clearly, then, Christ is not God, and God is of superior rank to Christ. It should be noted that this was written about 55 C.E., some 22 years after Jesus returned to heaven.
A person who is really seeking to know the truth about God is not going to search the Bible hoping to find a text that he can construe as fitting what he already believes. He wants to know what God’s Word itself says. He may find some texts that he feels can be read in more than one way, but when these are compared with other Biblical statements on the same subject their meaning will become clear. It should be noted at the outset that most of the texts used as “proof” of the Trinity actually mention only two persons, not three; so even if the Trinitarian explanation of the texts were correct, these would not prove that the Bible teaches the Trinity.

im a christian and used bible as my guidance in my life. As far as I learn in the bible ... yes there's only 1 God, and the word of trinity there's no in the bible. B'coz in the original christianity which appeared about 1 C.E ago they didnt worship trinity only 1 GOD, and trinity appeared around 4 C.E. The consept of trinity was adopted by nonchristian religion to the truth of christian. Thats what i have research and learning bible History. We cant claim our religion is better than another or our country is better than another ... or anything else, because if one religion is good or not it will shown from their fruit ... good or rotten. such as behaviour, attitude, thinking, and so on.
If u learn History u will find that the truth only exists in the bible coz the first book in the bible were written by Moses 1513 BCE and finished written by Apostle John in Revelation Book on 96 C.E. Well id like to give you lots of information but i think its enough for now.

I agree with you completely. It is amazing that when you actually show people from the Bible that the trinity is false, they still won't believe. That should be obvious by the number of "thumbs down" you got just for giving sound Scriptual proof that the trinity is not based on the Bible. 2 Cor. 4:4 says that Satan, who is the god of this system of things "has blinded the minds of the unbelievers."

There is ONE God! Whether God is referred to as "God", or "Alla", or "Mother Nature", or "Yahwea(sp?)". . . Whether a culture finds wisdom and moderation in Buddism, or compassion in the teachings of Jesus Christ, or kindness outlined in the Koran, or spiritual history in their ancestry, all of this is God-the one and only God!
(About the idea of the Trinity, I don't think it rebukes the idea of One God at all. Here's how I reconcile that idea mentally: water=ice=steam. It's all H2O, just different forms. God=Jesus=HolySpirit. All just different forms of God.)

Don't you see that you're making people hate you? You're not going to convert people this way. You have to make logical arguments instead of cutting and pasting from websites. I guarantee you that no one read all of that.

I nicely answered your last question with the Trinity. Now I see you are redundant and lame. I reported you like so many others. But thanks for the 2 points.
