From Revelation Its Grand Climax At Hand! page 139
Beliefs and Attitudes of Christendom:
God is a Trinity: "The Father is God, the Son is God, and the Holy Spirit is God, and yet there are not three Gods but one God." (The Catholic Encyclopedia, 1912 edition)

WHAT THE BIBLE REALLY SAYS:
The Bible says that Jehovah is greater than Jesus and is the God and head of Christ. The holy spirit is God's active force.

John 14:28 says: YOU heard that I said to YOU, I am going away and I am coming [back] to YOU. If YOU loved me, YOU would rejoice that I am going my way to the Father, because the Father is greater than I am.

John 17:20 says: Jesus said to her: “Stop clinging to me. For I have not yet ascended to the Father. But be on your way to my brothers and say to them, ‘I am ascending to my Father and YOUR Father and to my God and YOUR God.’”

1 Corinthians 11:1-3 says: But I want YOU to know that the head of every man is the Christ; in turn the head of a woman is the man; in turn the head of the Christ is God.

Matthew 3:11 says: I, for my part, baptize YOU with water because of YOUR repentance; but the one coming after me is stronger than I am, whose sandals I am not fit to take off. That one will baptize YOU people with holy spirit and with fire.

Luke 1:41 says: Well, as Elizabeth heard the greeting of Mary, the infant in her womb leaped; and Elizabeth was filled with holy spirit,

Acts 2:4 says: and they all became filled with holy spirit and started to speak with different tongues, just as the spirit was granting them to make utterance.

Jehovah is greater than Jesus
Jesus is the Son of Jehovah
Again the holy spirit is Jehovah's active force.

From the Reasoning from the Scriptures

Is Jehovah in the "Old Testament Jesus Christ in the "New Testament"?
Matthew 4:10: "Jesus said to him: 'Go away, Satan! For it is written, "It is Jehovah your God you must worship, and it is to him alone you must render sacred service."'" (Jesus was obviously not saying that he himself was to be worshipped.)

John 8:54: "Jesus answered [the Jews]: If I glorify myself, my glory is nothing. It is my father that glorifies me, he who you say is your God.'" (The Hebrew Scriptures clearly identify Jehovah as the God that the Jews professed to worship. Jesus said, not that he himself was Jehovah, but that Jehovah was his Father. Jesus here made it very clear that he and his Father were distinct individuals.)

Ps. 110:1: "The utterance of Jehovah to my [David's] Lord is: 'Sit at my right hand until I place your enemies as a stool for your feet.'" (At Matthew 22:41-45, Jesus explained that he himself was David's "Lord," referred to in this psalm. So Jesus is not Jehovah but is the one to whom Jehovah's words were here directed.)

Phil. 2:9-11: "For this very reason also God exalted him [Jesus Christ] to a superior position and kindly gave him the name that is above every other name, so that in the name of Jesus every knee should bend of those in heaven and those on earth and those under the ground, and every tongue should openly acknowledge that Jesus Christ is Lord to the glory of God the Father. (Notice that Jesus Christ is here shown to be different from God the Father and subject to him.)

I think He only referred to Himself as the Son of God.

"...(Is Jesus God?) I talked about how many people have a hard time believing Jesus is God. One reason for these doubts is the "trinity." People have a hard time understanding how there can be only one God and still have three people in the Godhead."
"...a person who is someone’s father, someone’s son, and someone’s husband as an example of the trinity. Although this person has three titles, functions and purposes, he is still one person."
"Our view of God’s realm in incredibly limited. We are only able to see a minute fraction of Him. We should not be surprised if He came to us in the limited form of a human. The fact Jesus was limited does not mean He wasn’t divine. Remember, the Bible says it is impossible for mortal man to look upon God in His full glory. Therefore, if God were to come down to visit us, it would have to be in a very limited manner."

Yes.

Amongst other things He said, He said this:
5 Then Jesus said to them, "The Son of Man is Lord of the Sabbath." (Luke 6)

To the Jews he was talking to, they knew the Lord of the Sabbath from here:
Exodus 31:13
"Say to the Israelites, 'You must observe my Sabbaths. This will be a sign between me and you for the generations to come, so you may know that I am the LORD, who makes you holy."

So he made it clear, He was over the Sabbath. In fact, he IS the Sabbath in the type of observance it represented. He is the Lord of the Sabbath!

If Jesus had ever clearly and publicly proclaimed his divinity (prior to the crucifixion) then the satanic forces of evil would have never permitted his execution, and we would all still be enslaved to Satan, sin, and death.

Jesus proved who he was by his miracles, by his death and resurrection, and by subsequent personal revelation to his apostles, which was further reinforced and clarified by the Holy Spirit, on Pentecost.

There is no doubt Jesus is God.

The evidence is clear. Try to study all of the evidence and it will become clear to you, too.

The word comes from Sanskrit "Issa", which in turn comes from Ishwar (meaning Bhagavan or God). Ishwar is the angram of Shiv

If the original word is from Sanskrit, then pretty much everything else about Isa (or Yishu or Jesus) is a little ... hmmmm...

To answer your question, yes He did. Others have already posted some scriptures on Jesus' sayings, so I'll just refer to those that have agreed on Him being God. If you don't want to believe it, oh well. It's your loss.

Sure did...

Matthew 26:63-64

"...The high priest said to him, 'I charge you under oath by the living God: Tell us if you are the Christ, the Son of God.'

Yes, it is as you say,' Jesus replied..."

Jesus told us loud and clear the he is THE ONLY BEGOTTEN SON OF GOD. He is his Father's Son.
Read John Chapter 14.

This is, in fact, why he was killed-----for blasphemy, no less.
Saying he was God. Before Abraham was, I AM. Does any-one think the Jews are stupid. They knew what he meant.
