you have just discovered that the Bubba Preachers have corrupted the original biblle text.
If Jesus had said, "I am the way to Heaven" then you are right it would mean he was calling himself God and subsequently wanted to be praised or worshipped.
But many time Jesus told us not worhip or consider him perfect.
Therefore the verse "I am the way" is a corrupt verse put in there in 325AD. We can deduce that in the original it read " Jesus said my message (from God) is the way, and the truth"
Jesus spent his whole life bringing us a message. To Jesus his message was the most important thing which was:
Harmony is harmony.
Disharmony is the only sin against God.
but, corrupt Religious Empires don't want us to follow that message. They would rather say worship God, worship Jesus, Worship the Religious Empire leaders -- like the Pope, who insists that you kiss his ring when you meet him.
Thanks for accidentally discovering that "I am the way" originally mean "My message (from God) is the way to Heaven.

Jesus never said to praise Him. Everything that Jesus did on this Earth was an example for man to follow. He said to pray: Our Father, Who art in Heaven...Hallowed be thy name. This does not in any way indicate that He said to praise Himself.
Jesus was the word of God made into flesh and born of a virgin. He was more than just a prophet. He was God on Earth in human form. He was sent as an example for all of mankind on how to gain eternal life and get into Heaven with our Father.
The name Jesus means "God Saves". The name Satan means "adversary".
Jesus could not go against God, and therefore, could never be His adversary. He also never lied. Satan did. As for fooling people, how many people do you know that can tell people that they will die, be betrayed by a close follower, and say that they will rise from the dead in 3 days and actually have all come to pass? I wouldn't call someone like that a liar. In fact, that makes Him more true than anyone I know.

Jesus is a part of God. The Father, Jesus (The Son), and the Holy Spirit are all a part of God. They're all one God, they just have 3 parts. Jesus was a part of God, so he should get praise along with God, his father. Jesus was and is part of God. He was God in human form and died for our sins. He deserves our praise because he's a part of God. Sorry, if this sounds confusing, but basically God sent Jesus to the earth to be the sacrifice for our sins, so that anyone can be saved. Jesus was God in a human body. He chose to come here and be human, to feel pain, to feel hungry and cold, to feel the same things we do. He died holy and blameless so that we could be forgiven.

He didnt. Read the Bible. Jesus and the father and the holy spirit are one. Jesus did not put himself before anyone he was humble in the flesh and did the will of the father. Jesus is God in the flesh. the Father Son and Holy Spirit are one God. The same as you are one but also have a body and a spirit and the two are a living soul. Edit: Jesus is God in the flesh who atoned for our sins and is more than worthy of worship!!!! He is God!! Jesus is the son of god and he and the Father and the holy spirit are one God. You are onperson and you are flesh and Spirit and the two make up a living soul this is the image of God if you were created as the animals you would die with your flesh.

In truth, The FATHER, SON, and HOLY SPIRIT are all one. Jesus was here when the earth was formed by GOD. HE will be here at Judgment. He was sent by GOD and was able to do miracles as a result of the FATHER's POWER. I believe that you need to read the BIBLE a little closer for clarity! Have a great holiday.

Yes, God said praise none other than Him. You are right. This brings us to the doctrine of the Holy Trinity. It says that Jesus is fully divine, along with being fully man. Two natures in one person. Jesus is God just as much as God the father is God along with the Holy Spirit. Jesus is not satan because he was crucified and rose from the dead. This is not a simple idea to comprehend and I believe that nobody will ever fully understand the Holy Trinity with their limited human mind. I encourage you to learn more about this topic because it is incredibly interesting and their is so much to learn.

With Jesus there are three possibilities. He was either a Liar, a Lunatic, or Lord. It is up to you to seek and find out the truth about who Jesus really is.

He is the way there...check this brother!
Jesus Christ: Many Things to Many People
Jesus Christ has been called many things by many people, including a great man, a great teacher, and a great prophet. There is no legitimate scholar today that denies that Jesus is a historic figure that walked on this earth about 2,000 years ago, that he did remarkable wonders and acts of charity, and that he died a horrible death on a Roman cross just outside Jerusalem. The only dispute is whether Jesus was God incarnate who rose from the dead three days after His crucifixion. These are all matters of historical record that can be earnestly discovered and tested. Jesus told us who He was – He didn’t mince words. “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by Me.” (John 14:6).
Jesus Christ: He is the Way
Jesus Christ declared “I am the Way,” but clearly, not everyone believes Him. What are we all afraid of? The evidence for Jesus and His great works are well documented both in and out of the Bible. The evidence for His crucifixion on the cross, the empty tomb three days later, and His appearances to over 500 eye-witnesses after his resurrection is very compelling. Jesus fulfilled over 300 messianic prophecies written in the Old Testament scriptures. With the discovery of the Dead Sea Scrolls and the reliability of the Septuagint version of the Old Testament, both of which have been proven to exist prior to the time Jesus walked on the earth, you can be assured that these prophecies were not “conspired” after-the-fact. They were truly fulfilled by the Messiah, Jesus Christ.
Actually, if you look at the polls, most people aren’t afraid of Jesus at all. They’re afraid of Christians. Look at the way many Christians act, and who can deny this fear. Arcane rituals, flamboyant preachers, money, power, hypocrisy – Do these present a real picture of who Jesus is, and who He wants us to be? No. However, Jesus did not ask us to follow men and religion, He asked us to follow Him.
Jesus Christ: He is the Truth
Jesus Christ declared “I am the Truth,” but clearly, many of us have created our own concepts of truth. Moral relativism and religious pluralism pervade our culture. Truth is redefined daily. However, Jesus, through His Word -- the Bible -- gave us absolute truth. With today’s archaeological, historical and manuscript evidence, there’s far less reason to deny the origin of the Bible and its divine authenticity than to deny the legitimacy of works by Homer, Plato and Aristotle. What about your own pursuit of the truth? Is it even a priority in your life? How do you discover Christ’s truth, you might ask? He tells us in Matthew 7:7, “Ask, and it shall be given you; seek, and ye shall find; knock, and it shall be opened unto you.”
Jesus Christ: He is the Life
In Philippians 3:8, Paul said it all when he claimed that everything else is worthless when compared with the priceless gain of knowing Jesus Christ. “For God so loved the world, that He gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” (John 3:16).
Jesus Christ: He is Who He Said He Was
Jesus Christ said that He was the only way. Jesus is unique. He was either telling the truth, He was crazy, or He was a liar. But since everyone agrees that Jesus was a “good man,” how then could He be both good and crazy, or good and a liar? There is only one logically consistent alternative - He must have been telling the truth. Jesus is who He said He was - He is the only way to God!

DID Jesus say "praise me"? I thought he never said he wanted to be worshiped. There is no "Satan", there is no Jesus, there WAS no Jesus.
