Jesus never claimed to be Christ until it was revealed by those who followed him FIRST. They were his witnesses. And even then, Jesus taught that he would not truly become "Christ" until everything was accomplished - He would need to suffer death and be resurrected on the third day - fulfilling what was written by the Prophets.
Matthew 16:
13 Peter’s Confession of Christ’s Divinity.[d]When Jesus came to the region of Caesarea Philippi,[e] he asked his disciples, “Who do people say that the Son of Man is?” 14 They replied, “Some say John the Baptist; others, Elijah; and still others, Jeremiah or one of the Prophets.” 15 “But you,” he said to them, “who do you say that I am?” 16 Simon Peter replied, “You are the Christ, the Son of the living God.”[f]
Christ would be revealed by witnesses NEVER by one proclaiming to be the Messiah/Christ himself/herself.
There were others proclaiming to be "The Messiah" during and after Jesus' ministry - one in particular was Simon Magus - Simon the Sorcerer - Simon The Magician. He proclaimed himself to be Jesus the Messiah among some - God the Father among others - and even The Holy Spirit among others.
Roman Emperor NERO accepted Simon Magus as his prophet - fulfilling what was written in the book of Revelation:
Revelation 13:
11 A Beast Rises from the Earth.[c] Then I saw another beast, this one rising up out of the earth. It had two horns like those of a lamb, but it spoke like a dragon. 12 It wielded all the authority of the first beast on its behalf, and it forced the earth and all its inhabitants to worship the first beast, whose mortal wound had been healed. 13 It performed great signs, even making fire come down from heaven to earth in the sight of all.
14 By the signs it was allowed to perform on behalf of the beast, it deceived the inhabitants of the earth, persuading them to erect an image for the beast that had been wounded by the sword and yet lived. 15 It was permitted to give life to the beast’s image so that it could even speak and cause all those to be put to death who would not worship the image of the beast.
16 It also forced all the people, both small and great, both rich and poor, both free and slave, to be branded on the right hand or on the forehead. 17 No one could buy or sell anything except one who has been branded with the name of the beast or with the number of its name.
18 There is wisdom here. Let anyone who has understanding calculate the number of the beast, for it is the number of a person. The number is six hundred and sixty-six.
666 translates to CAESAR NERO in numerology. It is that simple - no need to dwell on conspiracy theories.
The false Prophet is Simon Magus who "stunned people by his magic, even making "stars fall from heaven".
Simon Magus is responsible for the "great divide" within the Christian Religion - IT IS HE AND ONLY HE THAT TAUGHT THAT PEOPLE COULD BE SAVED BY "HIS GRACE" AND HIS GRACE ALONE - REGARDLESS OF SIN OR WORKS.
IT WAS THROUGH HIM THAT THIS BLASPHEMY HAS CORRUPTED MANY CHRISTIANS SECTS - and has tragically misled Saint Paul himself - leading to many disputes between Paul and Peter within the 1st century.
Could it be that the "Jesus" you think was Jesus is NO OTHER THAN SIMON MAGUS?
The Roman Catholic Church has been steadfast it its belief and teachings of Christ that it is by FAITH, GRACE AND WORKS that a person is Redeemed in Christ.
For all of you that believe that you can only be saved by grace....
YOU HAVE BEEN DECEIVED by Simon Magus - Simon the Sorcerer.
Now for the fun part - through God's infinite Grace and Mercy he has sent us "The Son of Man" who has the "Double Edged Sword".
Although many have been misled by false prophesies, it is only now that those mislead have been given "The Spirit of Truth".
Only God knows a person's heart and if the heart is pure in Spirit - even those misled will have an opportunity to be redeemed.
Redemption is simple - "Love and Trust God with all your Mind, Heart and Soul and Love Your Neighbor as Yourself " - AND let your faith be displayed BY YOUR WORKS - Then you shall be truly saved by The Grace of God that you, yourself manifested by your true faith, humility and works.
This is a "Mystery of Faith"
God's power is infinite and never yielding - I tell you the truth when I say that even Simon Magus and NERO himself can be redeemed if they truly confess and repent - it only takes a "mustard seed of faith" to begin to understand God's Kingdom and the true Mercy of God.
