Did Jesus deny being God ?

Dear brothers and sisters,

If I am standing infront of the IBM headquaters building, and a fellow employee unknowingly asked be "Is this your building , do you own this building ? "

Then I replied "This Building is NOT MY OWN, but it belongs to The ONE WHO EMPLOYEES ME"

This would clarify to the person asking that I AM NOT THE OWNER, I am just one of the workers.
I do not own the building (Universe) the one I work for owns it.

Another Example is:

If I am at a gathering of people in a friend's house, and a fellow guest unknowingly asked me, "Is this your house ?" I would reply "This is not my house but it is the house of the ONE WHO INVITED ME"

This would clarify to the fellow guest that again, I am NOT THE OWNER of the house.

Did Jesus make such statements reguarding his status, the words, the will and the power he used ?


WORDS
_____

Joh 7:16Jesus answered them and said, "My doctrine is not Mine, but His
who sent Me.

Joh 14:24"He who does not love Me does not keep My words; and the word
which you hear is not Mine but the Father's who sent Me.


Joh 12:49"For I have not spoken on My own authority; but the Father who
sent Me gave Me a command, what I should say and what I should speak.

WILL
____
Joh 4:34Jesus said to them, "My food is to do the will of him who sent
me, and to accomplish his work.

Joh 6:38"For I have come down from heaven, not to do My own will, but
the will of Him who sent Me.


Lu 22:42saying, "Father, if it is Your will, take this cup away from Me;
nevertheless not My will, but Yours, be done."


POWER
_____

Joh 5:30"I can of Myself do nothing. As I hear, I judge; and My judgment
is righteous, because I do not seek My own will but the will of the
Father who sent Me.

Joh 8:42Jesus said to them, "If God were your Father, you would love me,
for I proceeded and came forth from God; I came not of my own accord,
but he sent me.

KNOWLEDGE
_________

Mr 13:32"But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels in
heaven, nor the Son, but only the Father.

Mt 24:36"But of that day and hour no one knows, not even the angels of
heaven, but My Father only.

Joh 7:16So Jesus answered them, "My teaching is not mine, but his who
sent me;

STATUS
______

Mt 7:21"Not everyone who says to Me, 'Lord, Lord,' shall enter the
kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven.

Mr 10:18And Jesus said to him, "Why do you call me good? No one is good
but God alone.

8:50"And I do not seek My own glory; there is One who seeks and judges.

Some Christians, (not all) claim that Jesus _implied_ that he was God, from the above verses, we see that Jesus denied being God, it now leaves the Christians who believe Jesus is God to provide just one single verse in the Bible where Jesus says "I am God" there is no such verse, so we see from the many quotes above, that the House did not belong to Jesus, it belonged to the ONE WHO SENT him.

Peace and Blessings,
