Why do the Old and New Testaments never refer to Jesus as the Messiah?
The word Messiah comes from the Hebrew word for 'anointed'. The word Christ is the Greek equivalent, again meaning 'anointed'. The Old Testament never mentions Jesus at all, so it therefore never calls him the Messiah. The New Testament was written entirely in Greek and does call Jesus the Christ, the Greek equivalent to the Messiah.

Does a religious upbringing force children to believe in god?
Yes, they do force children to believe in God, but a religious upbringing tells them a religion (if they don't know) and the upbringing will let them know that almost all religions believe in God. The only problem is they believe in different gods. In Christianity, they believe in God AND Jesus Christ as the Son. In Islam, They believe in God and pronounce it as Allah. Islam does not believe that Allah has a Son. Hinduism believes in statues. And Judaism believes that Jesus Christ is a prophet. Christianity also believes that Jesus Christ is our savior and God gave us a gift called salvation. They sometimes call Jesus as the Messiah, which means Jesus Christ. There is a difference between messiah and Messiah. A messiah is a savior or a liberator, while a Messiah is Jesus.
How many times was Jesus prophesy about in the Old Testament?
Really, that is an unanswerable question, because it is an innumerable amount of times that prophecies were made about the Messiah. Some were obvious and some were hidden. There is even the thought, by some, that the entirety of the "Old Testament", as some call it, was a prophecy of Messiah altogether.
Did Jews expect the messiah to be God?

Did Jesus call himself christ?
CHRIST: This title from the Greek khri.stos' is equivalent to the Hebrew Ma.shi'ach, " Messiah; Anointed One." Read Matthew 2: 4 " Christ" is not a mere appelative added to distinguish the Lord Jesus from others of the same name; it is an official title. The coming of the Christ, the one whom Jehovah would anoint with his spirit to be the messianic King, had been foretold centuries before Jesus' birth. Read Daniel 9: 25, 26. However, at his birth, Jesus was not yet the Anointed One or Christ. In foretelling his birth, the angel instructed Joseph: " You must call his name Jesus." Read Matthew 1: 21. But when the shepherds near Bethlehem were given the angelic announcement, in anticipation of Jesus' future role they were told: " There was born to you today a Saviour, who is Christ the Lord," that is, who" who is to be Christ the lord. Read Luke 2: 11. The personal name of Jesus followed by the title Christ may call attention to the person himself and that he is the one who became the Anointed One of Jehovah. This occurred when he reached about 30 years of age, was baptized in water, and was anointed with Jehovah God's spirit visibly observed in the form of a dove descending upon him. Read Matthew 3: 13-17. So to answer your question, which is: Did Jesus call himself Christ? The answer is: It is his Father Jehovah who made his Son Jesus to be known as Christ, as it is confirmed in the Scriptures above.

Mesihiyun (مسيحيون), meaning "Messiah-ists" in that they follow the Messiah. ad-Daalin (الضالين), meaning "the Astray", in that they are misguided for believing in Christ when they should accept the Qur'an and become Muslims.
