Why is Jesus considered divine & that [most of] the written Word is "just the OT?" [or, just history?]

...esp since during His 3 yrs of ministry, He mainly quoted OT & clarified OT & denounced man-made traditions which were contrary to God & His Word!

In the beginning was the Word; the Word was with God & the Word was God

God give the written Word at Mt Sinai; Moses wrote it as the Torah

God sent His Salvation (Yeshua) as the living Word

    I don't consider him divine. And I personally think that christians downplay studying the "OT" because it so clearly contradicts christian beliefs.

    but hey, I'm just a baised jew.

    Jesus couldn't quote the New Testament, since it wasn't written until after His death. The Old Testament, every page was written about Jesus, predicting His birth and plan of redemption. One of the reasons Jesus quoted the Old Testament was to show prophecy was being fulfilled.

    Colossions 2;9 In him(Jesus) dwells all the fullness of the GODHEAD bodily. Before Abraham was, I AM. I and the Father are ONE. Every title that Jehovah(God) has , Jesus has, Rock, Light, Savior, Mighty God, Alpha, Omega etc. Jesus is God. Water can be solid liquid or vapor, yet it is still one substance, water.

    The New Testament is just another lie, to cover up the murder of Christ. Christ wasn't crucified...he was murdered.
