Jesus declares He is God in 7 “I am” Statements

February 11, 2020 by Keith Swift Leave a Comment

Seven “I am” statements of Jesus where He made it clear He claimed to be God – and Savior of all sinners who repent.


Jesus’ 7 “I am” Claims of His Deity
I am the… Bread, Light, Door, Good Shepherd, Resurrection, Way the Truth and the Life, Vine
Also stated clearly in Exodus 3:14 and John 8:24 and 28, and 58

John 6:35 (Bread).
“[a]I am the Bread of Life. The one who comes to Me will never be hungry, and the one who believes in Me [as Savior] will never be thirsty [for that one will be sustained spiritually].”

John 8:12 (Light);
“[a]I am the Light of the world. He who follows Me will not walk in the darkness, but will have the Light of life.”

John 10:9 (Door);
“I am the Door; anyone who enters through Me will be saved [and will live forever], and will go in and out [freely], and find pasture (spiritual security).”

John 10:11 (Good Shepherd);
“[a]I am the Good Shepherd. The Good Shepherd [b]lays down His [own] life for the sheep.”

John 11:25 (Resurrection);
“[a]I am the Resurrection and the Life. Whoever believes in (adheres to, trusts in, relies on) Me [as Savior] will live even if he dies;”

John 14:6 (Way, Truth, Life);
“[a]I am the [only] Way [to God] and the [real] Truth and the [real] Life; no one comes to the Father but through Me.”

John 15:5 (Vine).
“[a]I am the Vine; you are the branches. The one who remains in Me and I in him bears much fruit, for [otherwise] apart from Me [that is, cut off from vital union with Me] you can do nothing.”


Source: Biblegateway Footnote:
John 6:35  Jesus uses the words “I am” over twenty times in this Gospel. Especially memorable are those places where “I am” is followed by a metaphor that declares His deity and His relationship to mankind as Savior (this is the first of seven such references); see 8:12 (Light); 10:9 (Door); 10:11 (Good Shepherd); 11:25 (Resurrection); 14:6 (Way, Truth, Life); 15:5 (Vine).

Key Words: Bread,Light, Door,Good Shepherd,Resurrection,Way,Truth,Life,Vine

No Faith In Heaven

I think faith will not be necessary in heaven. ¨…Now we see in a glass darkly…¨ (1 Corinthians 13:12)  but not later, when we will then be able to see ¨face to face¨.    Scripture says that ¨now¨these three abide (faith, hope, love…1 Corinthians 13:13), but it implies in the context that later (being in […]

What is proper among saints

Ephesians 5:1-3.  “Therefore become imitators of God [copy Him and follow His example], as well-beloved children [imitate their father]; 2 and walk continually in love [that is, value one another—practice empathy and compassion, unselfishly seeking the best for others], just as Christ also loved you and gave Himself up for us, an offering and sacrifice to […]

Evil has been beating good frequently ever since the Creation of our tiny earth world.  It just did it again (January 7, 2021).  Evil won the day. Big, evil events have often splattered history: Eve fell for the Serpent’s lies Adam fell for the seduction of Eve’s greed and envy Man’s wanton sinfulness went worldwide […]
