What Yeshua Said about Himself
This brings us to a very important question. What exactly did Yeshua say about Himself? Some think that other people made Him out to be more than He, Himself claimed to be. Some say that Yeshua never claimed to be the Messiah or the Son of God. Let’s look at what he said.
109.) Jesus says that he is the Messiah
Some say, that Christ’s claim to be the Messiah was only something that others added on later.
Mark 14:61-62
….the high priest asked him, and said unto him, Art thou the Christ, the Son of the Blessed? And Yeshua said, I am: and ye shall see the Son of man sitting on the right hand of power, and coming in the clouds of heaven.
Here before the assembled Sanhedrin, the high priest point blank asks Yeshua if He is the Messiah. In the presence of the Jewish high court Yeshua answers that He is indeed the Messiah. The high court rejects His answer and condemns Yeshua.
Not only at the trial but, even before His trial, Yeshua told the people of Israel that He was their promised Messiah.
John 10:30-33
I and my Father are one. Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him. Yeshua answered them, Many good works have I shewed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me? The Jews answered him, saying, For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, makest thyself God.
Not only did Yeshua claim to be the Messiah, but He also claimed to be God. He claimed to be one with God in such a way that can only be understood as a claim to divinity. The people who heard Him understood that He was claiming to be divine and that’s why they reacted so strongly.

110.) Jesus says that He is God
No, man can not become God, but is it too hard to believe that God could come to earth in the form of a man? Jesus claimed to be exactly that, God on earth.
John 8:56-58
Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.
Here Yeshua asserts that Abraham was looking unto Him. But what confused the Jews was that Yeshua was only around thirty years old and Abraham had been dead for almost two thousand years. Yet, here Yeshua claims to have spent time with Abraham.
How did He do that, easy He told them that He was God. He tells them that “before Abraham was, I AM.” Yeshua here plainly states that He is God by using the phrase “I AM”, which in Hebrew is YHWH.
This is part of the divine name, “I AM THAT I AM”, that God revealed to Moses on Mount Sinai. This name conveys the thought of God’s eternal existence. Jesus told them that BEFORE Abraham was, HE existed.
Yeshua is the only person to have claimed to be God come in the flesh, and to have millions of people believe in Him.
