The question

Does the fact that God did not say "I am God" to Adam (peace be upon him) justify the Messiah not saying "I am God"?

The answer

Establishing divinity and Lordship does not depend on saying "I am God"; rather, the speaker must be characterized by attributes of perfection. The Antichrist will claim divinity, yet he is a liar due to his imperfection (one-eyed), and God is free from all imperfections. Jesus, peace be upon him, is not fit to be God because he is a human who eats food, and God does not resemble His creatures. God's Lordship was established for Adam, peace be upon him, as evidenced by his words: (Our Lord, we have wronged ourselves). The authentic texts of the Gospel, which have not been distorted, indicate that Jesus is a human who calls to the worship of God alone.
