Jesus assumed the prerogatives of Yahweh. He claimed to have control over mans eternal destiny (John 8:24, Luke 12:8-9, John 5:22, 27-29)
Jesus claimed to have authority over the Sabbath (Matthew 12:8, Mark 2:28, Luke 6:5)
Jesus claimed to have the power to answer prayer (John 14:13-14, Acts 7:59, 9:10-17)
Jesus claimed and to have the right to receive worship and faith due to God alone (Matthew 21:16, John 14:1, John 5:23).
Jesus claimed to forgive sins, something only God could do and the Jews knew this to be true. (Mark 2:5-11)
Jesus also called God's angels (Luke 12:8-9, 15:10) His angels (Matthew 13:41, 24:30-31)
Jesus called God's elect (Luke 18:7, Rom. 8:33) His elect (Matthew 24:30-31)
Jesus called God's kingdom (Matthew 12:28, Mark 1:15, Luke 4:43, John 3:3) His kingdom (Matthew 13:41, Luke 1:33).
The Lord's favorite description of Himself was "Son of Man" (cf. Matthew 8:20; Mark 2:28; Luke 6:22; John 9:35-37, etc.). Although that title seems to stress His humanity, it also speaks of His deity. Jesus' use of the term derives from Daniel 7:13-14, where the Son of Man is on equal terms with God the Father, the Ancient of Days.
Son of God- just as the son of man in most cases emphasizes Jesus humanity the title Son of God emphasizes His Deity. He has the same nature as His Father which is Divine.gty
Jesus claimed to be God. John 8:24,58, Revelation 1:8,17; 22:13
The Apostles called Him God- John 20:28,Titus 2:13, 2 Peter 1:1,11; 1 John 5:20
hope this helps !!!
