It is a matter of historical record that Jesus claimed to be God in a human body. He made a series of "I am" statements: "I am the living water," "I am the light of the world," and "I am the bread of life." He said that He was one with the Father and "if you've seen Me, you've seen the Father." He also claimed to forgive sins -- not just the sins committed against Him but all sins, as though He was the one offended in all sins, as though this were His world and His rules. He said His death was voluntary and that His death would pay the penalty for the sins of everyone else. Jesus' enemies, as well as His disciples, repeatedly insisted that He claimed to be God.
