" I Am "
I can only find one place where God says ' I AM" in the O. T. and was wondering why was it captialized when all the rest was ... I am the Lord , there is no other , I am the Lord , the God of your father Abraham and the God of Isaac.
Here is the verse I am referring to :
Exodus 3:14
God said to Moses, "I am who I am . This is what you are to say to the Israelites: 'I AM has sent me to you.' "
Then in the N. T. Jesus says I am the bread of life ... I am the Light of the world ... I am the Door .... I am the Good Shepherd.... I am the way the Truth and the life ... I am the true Vine.
Revelation 21:6
He said to me: "It is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End. To him who is thirsty I will give to drink without cost from the spring of the water of life.
The only thing that I can say to link the two " I am's " is that Jesus was telling us that He and the Father are one .Because Jesus tells us that He existed before Abraham was born.
In John 8 :58 ... He said " Most assuredly , I say to you , before Abraham was ,"I AM ."
