Jesus said I am on seven occasions. Each I am is a
description Jesus gave of Himself and is recorded in Johns Gospel. The Seven
I am sayings help us better understand the divinity of Jesus Christ.
1. Bread
I am the bread
of life; he who
comes to Me
shall not
hunger.� John
6:35
2. Light
I
am the light of
the world; he
who fallows Me
shall not walk
in the darkness,
but shall have
the light of
life.� John
8:12
3. Gate
I am the gate;
if anyone enters
through Me, he
shall be saved,
and shall go in
and out, and
find pasture.�
John 10:9
4. Good
Shepherd
I am the good
shepherd; the
good shepherd
lays down His
life for His
sheep.� John
10:11
5. Resurrection
and Life
I am the
resurrection and
the life; he who
believes in Me
shall live even
if he dies.�
John 11:25
6. Way, Truth,
Life
I am the way,
and the truth,
and the life; no
one comes to the
Father, but
through Me.�
John 14:6
7. True vine
I am the true
vine, and My
Father is the
vinedresser.�
John 15:1
* The divinity of Jesus Christ is further illustrated in John 8:58. Jesus
said, Truly, Truly, I say to you, before Abraham was born, I am�, which means
that Jesus existed before His human life on earth. |
