Eternal King: The I AM Statements
The “I am” statements that John includes in his Gospel are connected with the I am statement in Exodus and Isaiah. Once again John is showing that the King that came to earth, is the Son of God, he is not just the human Messiah, but he is God incarnate. Anything you need is found in him. As you study these I am statements, we are forming a picture of who Jesus is, every I am statement reveals a facet of Christ.
Our King is:
- “I am the bread of life.” (John 6:35, 41, 48, 51) As bread sustains physical life, so Christ offers and sustains spiritual life. This is calling back to the manna of the Old Testament.
- “I am the light of the world.” (John 8:12) To a world lost in darkness, Christ offers Himself as a guide.
- “I am the door of the sheep.” (John 10:7,9) Jesus protects His followers as shepherds protect their flocks from predators.
- “I am the resurrection and the life.” (John 11:25) Death is not the final word for those in Christ.
- “I am the good shepherd.” (John 10:11, 14) Jesus is committed to caring and watching over those who are His.
- “I am the way, the truth, and the life.” (John 14:6) Jesus is the source of all truth and knowledge about God. He is the pathway we travel on to meet the Father. He is the source of our eternal life.
- “I am the true vine.” (John 15:1, 5) By attaching ourselves to Christ, we enable His life to flow in and through us. Then we cannot help but bear fruit that will honor the Father.
