I believe Jesus was a prophet and a pious man. He probably would have considered it blasphemy to attribute the characteristics of a Christ to him.

jesus referred to himself as the son of man . if you believe in the trinity then this question pretty much answers itself . " god so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son " begotten meaning coming from , but also being as . jesus was prophetised as coming way back in the old testament , he performed many miracles to try and prove he was who he said he was . he never came out and said he was god , but he did make referances to just that .the three persons of the trinity are god the father , god the son , and god the holy spirit . the father is not the son , the son is not the spirit , the spirit is not the father . however , the father is god , the son is god , the spirit is god . john 10:30-33 "i and the father are one "

Jesus didn't just think that he was the son of God he knew he was the son of God. He spoke with his Father who is in Heaven every day.

I had a real interesting heat hallucination after an afternoon in the New Mexico desert. Jesus was fasting 40 days in the wilderness.

Jesus was the son of God, but so were all the Kings of Israel and the priests of Israel. Jesus said that his followers were his brothers and sons of God. We are all God's children.
It was only the Romans (with a little help from the Gnostics) that deified Christ the same way Romans deified their emperors.

Everyone is a son or daughter of God. Jesus knew this.

Well, God spoke out of heaven 3 times during JC's life saying, "This is my son, who I approve." and all....
that might have been a clue, aside from all of the other prophesies he fulfilled just by the way he was born.

Jesus Christ is really the Son of God. He proved it with his resurrection and his hundreds of other miracles. God bless.

You seem to be implying and assumption. The fact is only relevent if you are seeking salvation, where there is a prerequisite that you acknowledge him as Lord.

Jesus was God himself coming down and humbling himself into the human being to show us the way. So if you saw jesus today, you would be staring right at God himslef because they have the same authority and power..
