@mohammedxiii
Thomas fell on his knees and called him 'My Lord and My God' That is clearly aknowlediging he is God and also worshipping.
28 And Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!”
29 Jesus said to him, [f]“Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”
Revelation 5:
12 In a loud voice they were saying:
“Worthy is the Lamb, who was slain,
to receive power and wealth and wisdom and strength
and honor and glory and praise!”
13 Then I heard every creature in heaven and on earth and under the earth and on the sea, and all that is in them, saying:
“To him who sits on the throne and to the Lamb
be praise and honor and glory and power,
for ever and ever!”
14 The four living creatures said, “Amen,” and the elders fell down and worshiped.
The Lamb (Jesus) and God are both worshipped equally. If they were not One, worshipping the Lamb who be blasphemy

@mohammedxiii So, then Jesus accepted blasphemy according to you. That is weird the prophet of God not correcting his followers and nobody else correcting them too when they blasphemed God! Everywhere in the Bible people got punished for blaspheming God, but Jesus, the great prophet and son of God didn't correct them? And you said earlier he kept the law. Then he didn't keep the law, because he let people think he is God, when he is not. And so according to you he is a liar and a sinner.
1 Samuel 3:13 For I told him that I would judge his family forever because of the sin he knew about; his sons blasphemed God,[a] and he failed to restrain them.
Exodus 22:28 “Do not blaspheme God or curse the ruler of your people.
John 10:33 “We are not stoning you for any good work,” they replied, “but for blasphemy, because you, a mere man, claim to be God.”
If he wasn't God, then why didn't he just speak out 'No, I am not God or God's son, because that is blasphemy'. He didn't aknowlegded he was God's Son:
Mark 14:
61 Again the high priest asked him, “Are you the Messiah, the Son of the Blessed One?”
62 “I am,” said Jesus. “And you will see the Son of Man sitting at the right hand of the Mighty One and coming on the clouds of heaven.”
63 The high priest tore his clothes. “Why do we need any more witnesses?” he asked. 64 “You have heard the blasphemy. What do you think?”
They all condemned him as worthy of death. 65 Then some began to spit at him; they blindfolded him, struck him with their fists, and said, “Prophesy!” And the guards took him and beat him.
If people fell on their knees for angels, then the angels said 'don't do this'. When people fell on their knees for the disciples when they healed somone, they said 'stop'. But the greatest prophet just ignored that? It doesn't make sense and is just simply showing you don't want to accept the truth.
Truth is people worshiped Jesus and Jesus accepted it. He was the one without sin, if he accepted worship from people he WOULD NOT BE WITHOUT SIN and he would BLASPHEME GOD. So, either Jesus is no prophet at all and he is on big fraud or he is who he says he is. It is either one.
Jesus said 'believe in me', no prophet ever said 'believe in me'. Believing is worshiping.

@mohammedxiii Everywhere people worshiped Jesus and not ONCE does he tear his clothes, gets angry and shouts 'stop, please stop, don't worship me'. Every prophet would have said 'stop', except for Jesus. Instead he said do you believe in me.
John 9:35 Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when He had found him, He said to him, “Do you believe in the Son of [g]God?”
36 He answered and said, “Who is He, Lord, that I may believe in Him?”
37 And Jesus said to him, “You have both seen Him and it is He who is talking with you.”
38 Then he said, “Lord, I believe!” And he worshiped Him.

@mohammedxiii You clearly don't know the Bible and think we only listen to Paul. What did Paul said? Follow Christ alone, not me, not Peter, etc.
Old Testament:
Isaiah 9:6
For unto us a Child is born,
Unto us a Son is given;
And the government will be upon His shoulder.
And His name will be called
Wonderful, Counselor, Mighty God,
Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace.
Psalm 2
10 Now therefore, be wise, O kings; Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
11 Serve the Lord with fear, And rejoice with trembling.
12 Kiss the Son, lest He be angry, And you perish in the way,
When His wrath is kindled but a little.
Blessed are all those who put their trust in Him.
What did Jesus say about himself?
John 14:
6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.
7 “If you had known Me, you would have known My Father also; and from now on you know Him and have seen Him.”
8 Philip said to Him, “Lord, show us the Father, and it is sufficient for us.”
9 Jesus said to him, “Have I been with you so long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip?
He who has seen Me has seen the Father; so how can you say, ‘Show us the Father’? 10 Do you not believe that I am in the Father, and the Father in Me? The words that I speak to you I do not speak on My own authority; but the Father who dwells in Me does the works. 11 Believe Me that I am in the Father and the Father in Me, or else believe Me for the sake of the works themselves.
John 10:30 I (Jesus) and my Father are one.
Luke 10:22 Allthings have been delivered to Me by My Father, and no one knows who the Son is except the Father, and who the Father is except the Son, and the one to whom the Son wills to reveal Him.”
John 14:11 Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake.
John 15:26 “But when the Helper (Holy Ghost) comes, whom I shall send to you from the Father, the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father, He will testify of Me.
2 John 1:3 Grace be with you, mercy, and peace, from God the Father, and from the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of the Father, in truth and love.
1 John 2:22 Who is a liar but he who denies that Jesus is the Christ? He is antichrist who denies the Father and the Son. 23 Whoever denies the Son does not have the Father either; he who acknowledges the Son has the Father also.
John 20:26 And after eight days His disciples were again inside, and Thomas with them. Jesus came, the doors being shut, and stood in the midst, and said, “Peace to you!” 27 Then He said to Thomas, “Reach your finger here, and look at My hands; and reach your hand here, and put it into My side. Do not be unbelieving, but believing.”
28 And Thomas answered and said to Him, “My Lord and my God!”
- Thomas called him ‘My Lord and my God’. If Jesus wasn’t, then this would have been blasphemy and Jesus would have rebuked Thomas.
Then Jesus answers:
29 Jesus said to him, “Thomas, because you have seen Me, you have believed. Blessed are those who have not seen and yet have believed.”

@mohammedxiii Hebrew 1:1 Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. 3 He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 4 having become as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs.
5 For to which of the angels did God ever say,
“You are my Son,
today I have begotten you”?
Or again,
“I will be to him a father,
and he shall be to me a son”?
6 And again, when he brings the firstborn into the world, he says,
“Let all God's angels worship him.”
So, all Angels are told to worship Gods son. If Jesus was mere man, then the angels were told to blaspheme.
