THE SEVEN GREAT “I AM’S” OF JESUS CHRIST – Gospel of John

“I am the bread of life” is one of the SEVEN great “I AM’S” of John.

GOD’S PLAN OF SALVATION

Christ made it clear enough that salvation is the result, not of merely believing but of believing and being baptized. The preconditions upon which Christ promised to transfer sinners into himself are here stated as faith and baptism.

INTO THE DARKNESS

Many people, even Christians unfortunately, grow accustomed to being in darkness, which becomes comfortable for them. The comfort is a lie, from the father of lies.

ALL YOU NEED IS LOVE

The love of Christ has nothing to do with the worldly concept, but when you define love as Jesus does, the then title works!

WHY LOVE IS THE GREATEST THING – 1 Corinthians 13

1 Corinthians 13 may be viewed as one of the most important in Scripture, not merely for the truly marvelous things said of LOVE, but also for the firm word therein regarding the cessation of the miraculous age.

CHRIST AND A STONE – THE ROCK OF OUR SALVATION – Matthew 21

The example of a rejected stone becoming the chief stone was founded on historical fact.

LET US NOT SLEEP – LET US KEEP AWAKE AND BE SOBER – 1 Thessalonians 5

Darkness is used here as antithetical to light, and very similarly to the writings of John; these passages refer not to literal darkness and light, but to the state of rebellion against God (darkness) and to the state of obedience (light).
