I’ll begin right from the very start of his ministry work: Luke 4. Right after Jesus returns from the wilderness temptation experience, he goes home and does the following:

1. Goes to the synagogue
2. Reads from Isaiah 61 - a passage known to be about the Messiah.
3. Tells everyone present that the prophecy written there is being fulfilled as they are hearing his words (i.e., he declared himself).

Of course while the people are all murmuring to themselves (’what? This is Joseph’s son? What’s he talking about?’), Jesus then went on to really tick them off by referring to God’s grace being applied to foreigners through prophets (like himself). That moved his neighbors from ‘confused’ to ‘violent’ in a heartbeat.

And then he miraculously escapes the mob.

Yeah, he had no idea he was God. Sure.

I could go on and on - the answers to John the Baptist, the miracles, the silencing of the exorcised demons, the answers to Pilate, the resurrection of Lazurus. That’s just a few.

To ignore all of that after 8 years of supposed ‘research’ is effectively willful ignorance of the facts. You have to be actively seeking opinions from those whose opinions are opposed to the Biblical view to draw such a conclusion.

But we all knew that.

We can begin with the title being backwards. Anything after that is based on a false premise.
