Those newspapers come out with a lot of crap and you are right with them. Was Jesus cliaming to be Augustus Octavian. Or was Octavian claiming to be Jesus?

God is the alpha and the omega, the beginning and the end. He has no beginning and He has no end.

a little lesson for you...
Alpha is the first letter in the greek alphabet
Omega is the last letter in the greek alphabet
it was a figure of speech... like saying you have everything from A to Z...
just what papers are you reading... they might be suitable for lining a bird cage or kindling a fire, but not much more.

Alpha means first and Omega means last. In other words, God is first and last.
The beginning and the end.
The top and the bottom.

“The son-ship of Jesus Christ is the greatest fiction of human history.” (Lord Bishop of Canterbury Commission, the Spiritual Head of England, 1910.)
“The son-ship of Jesus Christ, the Trinity, the blood sacrifice of the lamb of God, atonement are not the teachings of Jesus. These are all inventions of Saint Paul who never really met Jesus.” (Hastings Rashdall, The Theory of Good and Evil)
“There is strong reason to believe that St. Paul fabricated the belief system of Christianity from Zoroastrian mythology. In order to hide Paul’s plaigerism… Christians burned the library of Alexandria in 390 A.D. Books in that library kept Mithra’s original story of what Pauline Doctrine is an almost exact copy. (George Sarton , Introduction to History of Sciences) ,
"Christianity...[has become] the most perverted system that ever shone on man....Rogueries, absurdities and untruths were perpetrated upon the teachings of Jesus by a large band of dupes and imposters led by Paul, the first great corrupter of the teaching of Jesus." --- Thomas Jefferson
"Initially there were 34 gospels that were compiled by word of mouth. Four were chosen for unclear reasons and 30 were left behind [burned]. (Encyclopedia Britannica)
The Christian community continues to exist because the conclusions of the critical study of the Bible are largely withheld from them. --Hans Conzelmann
