Jesus said in John 14:6 that He was the Way, the Truth and the Life, and that nobody comes to God the Father except through Jesus. That pretty much sums up His position as Savior for anyone who will accept that He is. This is in every version of the Bible.

Do you accept Jesus = God and both are One? Then this verse from the Isaiah fits: Isaiah 43:11. I, even I, am the Lord, and apart from there is no saviour.
Really great people do not go about trumpeting their greatness.
With half a wink of His eye He could have called off the experiment of the world as a total failure, and could have made this part of the universe to nothingness, in the light of the taunts and abuses and beatings and bloodshed He suffered for us on the Cross, yet He endured it all for the sake of SAVING mankind. It was a norm He imposed upon Himself. Not for any Nobel Peace prize either. Accept it by faith.
Also in the episode between the Samaritan woman see John 4:1-26, Jesus Himself says I who speak to you am he" meaning I am the Messiah (called Christ). The Messiah was not only the deliverer but also the Saviour.

Jesus ( pbuh ie peace be upon him) never said anything in the bible as been a saviour, he refers himself as son of Adam who was sent. The bible is very clear on what he said the rest is our thinking

That's a good question and I'll try to answer it best that I can. You can turn to a few different places, you can start out by going to Luke 2, there you'll read about Jesus and his parents going to the Temple in Jerusalem and Jesus claiming the God was his father (Luke 2:49), you can then turn to John 3, Where Jesus is conversing with Nicodemus and Jesus says this (about himself and his purpose in the world) "16"For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son,[f] that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. 17For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through him. 18Whoever believes in him is not condemned, but whoever does not believe stands condemned already because he has not believed in the name of God's one and only Son.19This is the verdict: Light has come into the world, but men loved darkness instead of light because their deeds were evil. 20Everyone who does evil hates the light, and will not come into the light for fear that his deeds will be exposed. 21But whoever lives by the truth comes into the light, so that it may be seen plainly that what he has done has been done through God." (NIV) Continue further and turn to Matthew 16:13-20, here Jesus is questioning the apostles about who the world, and who they think that He, Jesus is, "13When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, "Who do people say the Son of Man is?"
14They replied, "Some say John the Baptist; others say Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets."
15"But what about you?" he asked. "Who do you say I am?"
16Simon Peter answered, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God."
17Jesus replied, "Blessed are you, Simon son of Jonah, for this was not revealed to you by man, but by my Father in heaven. 18And I tell you that you are Peter, and on this rock I will build my church, and the gates of Hadeswill not overcome it. 19I will give you the keys of the kingdom of heaven; whatever you bind on earth will be bound in heaven, and whatever you loose on earth will be loosed in heaven." 20Then he warned his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Christ." (NIV)
From there, you can go to John 14:6, where Jesus says to his disciples when they ask him how they can get to the father, "I am the way, the truth and the life, No one comes to the father except through me." (NIV) From there, we'll go back a little bit chronologically to the night of the last supper, Where Jesus says to his apostles as he gives them the bread, "Take it; this is my body." (Mark 14:22) and then he takes the cup and says "This is my blood of the covenant, which is poured out for many," (24) The Hebrews at this time were still under a sacrifical system, where the high priest was required to go into the holy of holies (the most holy place in the temple) and offer a sacrifice for the all of the sins of the nation of Israel, Jesus is turning this covenant upside down and saying that the blood of a lamb without blemish is no longer required because his blood covers our sins. Finally, You can go to Mark 14:53-62, after Jesus' arrest, the members of the sanhedrin are questioning him and one of them asks "Are you the Christ, the Son of the Blessed One?"
62"I am," said Jesus. "And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven." (NIV) To the audience at the time, For Jesus to claim that he was the Christ (which means chosen one and is the same as messiah) would have meant that he was indeed claiming to be the savior of the world. I hope that this helps, more importantly, I'm praying that you can see this in the Bible and come to know and have a relationship with Jesus. If you would like me to do more research for you, I certianly will.

You were knowledgeable in a muslim college, weren't you. both international wars had not something to do with religiopn. except for theGermans and their muslim servants. Bush has really not killed absolutely everyone, and the alied infantrymen are merely killing terrorists that are bent on murdering absolutely everyone who refuses to bow all the way down to their assinine guidelines. Come on, Do you fairly favor society to revert back to the way it develop into 1400 years in the past, once you could be a slave to some wealthy guy?

"And argue not with the People of the Scripture unless it be in (a way) that is better, save with such of them as do wrong; and say: We believe in that which hath been revealed unto us and revealed unto you; our Allah and your Allah is One, and unto Him we surrender."
Qur'an 29:46
Don't argue with Jews and Christians unnecesarily. You just went againts the Qur'an.
