Did Jesus say he was God???

you did.
you asked if any one else claimed to be one with god...
did you not?
i then gave you a link showing the other messiahs.
what's the problem here?
There are lots of "non-messiahs" who claim to be "one with god" as well. This is a standard way that mystics express their direct and internal experience of the divine across cultures.

And anybody intimately familiar with the philosophy of mysticism will tell you that "I am one with God" does not mean the same thing as "I am God." Not at all.

i see what you mean. in this case however, the term "one with god" is used to confirm jesus as the messiah.

For the last time, I'll say we are discussing the bible here.
If you want, you could have a serious discussion about the bible.
Otherwise, this is useless, time waste and deserves no reply.

show me in the OP where it says we are discussing the bible and not overwhelming evidence

If God is determined to be a set of princples then whoever is doing those principles would be one with God or Godlike.

Maybe it is too difficult to understand:
Can anyone other than Jesus claim "I and the Father are one"?
Who else has ever claimed they are one with the Father?

1John 4:12-13
No man hath seen God at any time. If we love one another, God dwells in us, and his love is perfected in us. Hereby know we that we dwell in him, and he in us, because he hath given us of his Spirit.

And who are you to judge me having a misconception without giving proof?
I'm using the bible stories which everyone including you have posted. The misconception was on the part of the pharisees and you happen to agree with their accusations. Jesus clearly did not agree with the accusations and always had something to say back to make the pharisees sound ignorant. Even when Jesus was in front of Pontius Pilate he didn't give a straight answer nor did he agree with the accusations.

Can anyone see "I and the Father are one" in this verse?

How come?

The Torah or Isaiah does not Prophecies the Future, or, of any Future Messiah, The Central Character of Isaiah is CYRUS, for when you takes quotes from the Book of Isaiah, you are taking a Quote, that was Written for CYRUS and corrupting, so that its a Quote about Jesus.

Its Like taking a Quote out of harry Potter referring to Voldemort and making people believe its a Quote about Dark Lord Sauron(Lord of the Rings).
