It is really strange to me,this question have been asked by Jesus Himself thousands of years ago,and till now the question prevails.

Matthew 16:13 When Jesus and his disciples were near the town of Caesarea Philippi, he asked them,"What do people say about the Son of Man?"
(14) The disciples answered, "Some people say you are John the Baptist or maybe Elijah or Jeremiah or some other prophet."
(15) Then Jesus asked them, "But who do you say I am?"
(16) Simon Peter spoke up,"You are the Messiah, the Son of the living God."
(17) Jesus told him:
Simon, son of Jonah, you are blessed! You didn't discover this on your own. It was shown to you by my Father in heaven. (18) So I will call you Peter, which means "a rock." On this rock I will build my church, and death itself will not have any power over it. (19) I will give you the keys to the kingdom of heaven, and God in heaven will allow whatever you allow on earth. But he will not allow anything that you don't allow.
(20) Jesus told his disciples not to tell anyone that he was the Messiah.

Jesus Claiming to be God

John 10:27 My sheep know my voice, and I know them. They follow me, (28) and I give them eternal life, so that they will never be lost. No one can snatch them out of my hand. (29) My Father gave them to me, and he is greater than all others. No one can snatch them from his hands, (30) and I am one with the Father. (31) Once again the Jewish leaders picked up stones in order to kill Jesus. (32) But he said, "I have shown you many good things that my Father sent me to do. Which one are you going to stone me for?"

(33)They answered, "We are not stoning you because of any good thing you did. We are stoning you because you did a terrible thing. You are just a man, and here you are claiming to be God!"

(34) Jesus replied:

In your Scriptures doesn't God say, "You are gods"? (35) You can't argue with the Scriptures, and God spoke to those people and called them gods. (36) So why do you accuse me of a terrible sin for saying that I am the Son of God? After all, it is the Father who prepared me for this work. He is also the one who sent me into the world.

All Im saying is that,there was confusion then and still there is confusion now.Some say He is a Prophet,some say He is God or He is the Son of the living God.


EDIT-I posted this before seeing the video.

As a christian I didn't see Jesus as being GOD, but rather a gift from God. An example, like Mohammad is to muslims. The ultimate Lamb of God.
