He Gets Us: Who Did Jesus Say He Was? | Plan 5Sample

He is all we need.

Consider all we’ve learned about who Jesus said he is in this study of his seven “I am...” statements:

When Jesus said, “I am the bread of life,” he said that not only would he satisfy us with today’s needs, but he would satisfy every need we have.

When Jesus said, “I am the light of the world,”’ he promised to lead us out of darkness and be a light to rescue those whose sin keeps them in a dark place.

When Jesus said, “I am the door,” he proved he would protect us, keep us safe, and lead us down new paths.

When Jesus said, “I am the real vine,” he invited us to draw life from him—the filled up, overflowing kind of life.

When Jesus said, “I am the good shepherd,” he committed himself to take good care of his own.

When Jesus said, “I am the resurrection and the life,” he said he is our only hope for life after death.

When Jesus said, “I am the way, the truth, and the life,” he welcomed us to choose the path forward.

Notice what all these things say about Jesus? He brings life, light, health, food, and a way forward, but we must first come to him. We must believe he is who he says he is. In another place in the Bible, he says he rewards those who seek him. “For he who comes to God must believe that He is, and that He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him.” (Hebrews 11:6)

Believing what Jesus said about himself is the best decision of your life.
