My uncle came to my house yesterday and all of a sudden said to me about why Jesus never straight out claimed to be God, although he did ... but in a very 'unique' way i should say?
My uncle was saying how Jesus humbled himself and didn't go onto the streets saying 'I am God worship me' ... That would be prideful and sound quite ridiculous, because nobody would beleive you. This is why Jesus showed his deity by showing control over the Spiritual and the Physical world. If you study his speech in the Bible, he's the most interesting man i have ever read about.
The way Jesus claimed to be God was that it was NOT arrogant. If you went onto the street and claimed your God and for people to worship you, people for one would never beleive you, and secondly would get offended. Somebody has to demonstrate their power if they are God.
The way i see things is that God created the world 6,000 years ago, and 2,000 years ago Father God sent his Son Jesus to pay a visit to earth to show people, God is real. Its a nice way of understanding why Jesus had to come in the form of man. Obviously Jesus came mainly because of the Crucifxion and to provide the atonement for our sins etc.
