Yeah, Jesus IS God.....in the flesh bro

For my fellow trinitarians who wrestle with the unitarians or muslims telling you Jesus never said He was God, first of all , I think He did to ears who can hear, and clearly never denied it even faced with death because of the issue.
But here's ammunition if you need it next time they throw that one up. :

Although Jesus never denied it, the reason Jesus's main message wasn't to proclaim His deity is,..at that time in palestinian history, saying you were God meant instant rejection and probable capitol punishment. several times, even by force they wanted to take Him and make Him king. It wasnt for fear of His own death He resisted , for He did not fear death.
Instead He was able to extend the length of His ministry on earth to 3 & 1/2 years by, and for the purpose of, teaching servanthood and demonstrating by His actions the nature of God, rather than directly proclaiming it by words. It is clear all throughout scripture anyways to believers who have eyes to see who He was and is.
And when it came to the time HE chose, He allowed hateful men to execute Him for the very reason of His obvious insinuation He was God, not knowing themselves, the greater meaning of His death and what it would accomplish.
