No he did not. Matthew 12:15-17 says Now when he had come into the parts of Caesarea Philippi, Jesus went asking his disciples: “Who are men saying the Son of man is?” They said: “Some say John the Baptist, others Elijah, still others Jeremiah or one of the prophets.” He said to them: “YOU, though, who do YOU say I am?” In answer Simon Peter said: “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”  In response Jesus said to him: “Happy you are, Simon son of Jonah, because flesh and blood did not reveal [it] to you, but my Father who is in the heavens did

NEITHER.

Mat 19:17 “Why do you ask me about what is good?” Jesus replied. “There is only One who is good. If you want to enter life, obey the commandments.”

Mat 7:21 “Not everyone who says to me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ will enter the kingdom of heaven, but only he who does the will of my Father who is in heaven.

Claiming to be god, would have been a violation of the idoltry law...
Deut 4:15-16 Since you saw no form on the day the the LORD spoke to you at Horeb out of the midst of the fire. beware lest you act corruptly by making a graven image for yourselves, in the form of any figure, the likeness of man or female...

It is only through the teachings of the 'false prophet' Paul and the precepts of the catholic church that say 'jesus' is a god and should be worshipped. Basically, a 'false prophet' is a person that says ya don't have to follow the old laws and advocates an OTHER god, like paul does with 'Jesus'

Peace be unto you, Don I do not believe that Jesus ever asked or expected to be worshiped. That would have been inconsistent with what I take as his lack of human ego. At one point he is quoted as saying "my kingdom is not of this world'. But when Pilate asked Jesus if he was King of the Jews, he answered"you have said so." He did say that he was "the son of Man", but he did not elevate himself as a god. It was humans that managed to do that.

Jesus was almost stoned for saying, "before Abraham was, I AM." The Jews knew that God told Moses His name is the I AM. So when Jesus said that, they knew exactly what He meant. That is why they considered it blasphemy. There are many other verses where Jesus describes Himself as the Messiah, and also being One with the Father.

He told us to worship God the Father, he told us he is one with the Father and that no one will go to the Father except they go through him, we pray to the Father in his most Holy name, Jesus.

In the gospel of Mark, 14;62, Jesus tells the priests that he is the Christ and the son of the blessed.

having in mind the bedouin version of judaism i.e islam,it is very difficult to its believers to understand the trinity,they believe in a God who is so revengeful,full of anger,never satiated of blood,accordingly,they find it strange that GOD had manifested himself in a human-like personality.but can anyone of them explain to me:
#why jesus was born without father
#why he talked while still infant
#why he is still alive
#why he will come in the end of the world
#why he made the bird made of mud alive
#why he had the power to return the dead back into life
#why he was able to cure diseased people.
don't say these are his miracles like other prophets,one of these was enough,why so many?why the deeds he did were of God speciality,and were given to him?
sometimes the fact is obvious but who lacks rationalism is blind to see it.
may God bless you

Jesus is the Christ, and the Son of the one true God. He is also the path for salvation of the eternal soul.

Interpret that as you may/wish/can. It remains the truth.

He specifically tells people not to pray to him but to his Father. Hence the Lords Prayer which he taught to his disciples. Some (Protestant), Christian faiths actually tell you not to pray to The Father, but to Jesus. Hence all Catholics 'worship' God alone and no other, but will pray to Jesus for guidance and thanks for his sacrifice.

He gave all the credit to his Father. His mission was to bare witness to the truth of God's Kingdom and to die faithful to his Father for our sins.
