A LITTLE BIT OF GREEK
Note that after each ‘I AM’ statement, the very next word in all instances is the word ‘the’. In Greek, this word in Strong’s Concordance is: G3588 | ο, ἡ, τό | ho he to | ho, hay, to | the masculine, feminine (second) and neuter (third) forms, in all their inflections; the definite article; the (sometimes to be supplied, at others omitted, in English idiom): – the, this, that, one, he, she, it, etc. Jesus is THE bread of life. Jesus is THE way, THE truth, and THE life. He is NOT ‘a’ way. But THE way.

QUOTE
“A man who was merely a man and said the sort of things Jesus said would not be a great moral teacher. He would either be a lunatic — on the level with the man who says he is a poached egg — or else he would be the devil of hell. You must make your choice. Either this man was, and is, the Son of God, or else a madman or something worse. You can shut him up for a fool, you can spit at him and kill him as a demon or you can fall at his feet and call him Lord and God, but let us not come with any patronizing nonsense about his being a great human teacher. He has not left that open to us. He did not intend to.” C.S. Lewis

JESUS IS HIDDEN IN THE DETAILS OF THE TABERNACLE
A young Israeli couple visit a life-size replica of the tabernacle (at the 9:26 mark) in the Negev Desert of Israel and make a surprising discovery. The order of the seven I AM statements of the Lord Jesus seem to match the exact order of how God told Moses to set up (and dismantle) the tabernacle in the desert! Take a look! JD Farag talks about this in greater depth (at the 36:00 minute mark).
Gospel of John / Exodus 40
- I AM The Bread of Life = Table of Showbread
- I AM The Light = Menorah
- I AM The Door = The (Curtain) Door to the Tent
- I AM The Good Shepherd (who gives His life for the sheep) = Altar of Sacrifice
- I AM The Resurrection and Life (symbolised in baptism) = Laver (for washing)
- I AM The Way, The Truth, and The Life = Gate to the Tabernacle Courtyard (the only access from the outside world into the courtyard area and God’s presence)
- I AM The True Vine = ?

JESUS IS THE GREAT I AM
- Bible Verses
John 8:58 ‘Before Abraham was, I AM!’
John 5:18 Therefore the Jews sought the more to kill him, because he not only had broken the sabbath, but said also that God was his Father, making himself equal with God.
John 10:30-33 ‘I and my Father are one.’ Then the Jews took up stones again to stone him. Jesus answered them, ‘Many good works have I showed you from my Father; for which of those works do ye stone me?’ The Jews answered him, saying, ‘For a good work we stone thee not; but for blasphemy; and because that thou, being a man, make thyself God.’

- Information
Dr Chuck Missler I love the confrontation in the Gospel of John when he speaks of Abraham—“before Abraham was, I AM.” Jesus is here declaring that He is the voice of the burning bush. Now, anytime that you and I might miss the implication of something, the Pharisees come to our rescue. They took up stones to cast at Him. Why were they so upset? Because they recognized what He was saying. [Jesus was in fact executed for claiming to be the GREAT I AM.]

I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE
-
Bible Verses
John 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst.
John 6:51 I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If any man eat of this bread, he shall live forever; and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.
*
-
Information
I AM The Bread of Life (Matthew Henry) To believe in Christ is to come to Christ… Repentance towards God is coming to Him… It is to feed upon Christ (John 6:51): If any man eat of this bread… with appetite and delight, that we may receive life, and strength, and comfort from Him… What will he give us if we come to Him?… there is such an over-flowing fulness in Christ as can never be exhausted…
I AM The Bread of Life (David Guzik) the bread was His body that would be given as a sacrifice for the life of the world… and the substance of that bread is His sacrifice on the cross, the giving of His flesh and blood. What He gave at the cross, we must receive… He who feeds on Me will live because of Me: Those who do come to Jesus, believe upon Him, feed upon Him will find life. They will live, but not because they have found or earned the answer, but because Jesus has freely given what He won at the cross… In eating and drinking, a man is not a producer… he simply takes in… So it is with faith: you have not to do, to be, or to feel, but only to receive… Jesus offers us heavenly bread for eternal life, but we must eat it. Faith in Jesus is not compared with tasting or admiring, but with eating… Jesus understood the offence many of His listeners took at His teaching, yet He didn’t change the teaching… He challenged and confronted them even more… From that time many of His disciples went back and walked with Him no more. Once Jesus effectively discouraged every material and earthly motive for following Him, many stopped following… Do you also want to go away? Jesus searched the motives of all that follow Him, including the twelve… Lord, to whom shall we go? You have the words of eternal life…
THINK SPOT: The Lord Jesus was born in Bethlehem (which means, ‘house of bread’) and into a manger (a place where food is put) who is the living bread, the bread of life for us! Isn’t that unreal?! God’s attention to the tiniest details is amazing!

I AM THE DOOR / I AM THE GATE
- Bible Verses
John 10:7-9 Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep. All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them. I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.
A Little Bit of Greek: G2374 | θύρα | thura | thoo’-rah | apparently a primary word (compare “door”); a portal or entrance (the opening or the closure, literally or figuratively): – door, gate. [That is why different translations use either the word ‘door’ or ‘gate’. On a side note, don’t you find it interesting that it can also mean ‘portal’?]
*
- A Beautiful Story
I am the door (Chuck Smith; scroll down to ‘chapter 10’) …[in Israel] And he relates of talking with a shepherd one day, as the shepherd was pointing out this walled enclosure. And explaining to him how that they would drive the sheep into that enclosure at night or lead them into the enclosure, and there in the enclosure the sheep would be safe. And Doctor Smith said to him, “Well, you don’t have any door, how do you keep the sheep from going out?” And he said, “I am the door.” He said, “Once I have all of the sheep in, I lie across the opening here, and this is where I sleep. And no sheep can get out or no wolf can get in except to cross over me.” Now he wasn’t coming from any kind of a Biblical thing, in fact, he probably didn’t even know the Scriptures. But just, “I’m the door, I’m the one, you’ve got to come over me to get in, and you’ve got to come over me to get out.” …in the morning when they were ready to leave there would be several herds driven into these enclosures. And during the night they would mingle, but in the morning when the shepherd was ready to lead them out to the fields for pasture, he would go to the door and he would call, and his sheep knew his voice. They would come out of the herd and follow him. And you can try to mimic that call, but the sheep would never follow you. They know the voice of the shepherd, they respond to him… the world is comprised of two kinds of people: those that are His sheep, and those who are not His sheep…. You’re His or you’re not His. He knows His sheep. He calls them by name… Now, to me every sheep looks alike… But you go up to the shepherd that’s watching those sheep and you’ll say, “Hey, there’s one of your sheep that’s straying away.” And he’ll call it by name… “Joe, get back here!” Maybe you’ll let out a whistle and his dog will go out and start yipping and drive him back into the herd. He knows his sheep, he calls him by name. So the Lord knows you if you’re one of His sheep, He calls you by name… they hear His voice and they follow Him. Though all of the sheep hear the voice, only His sheep respond… And how do you know you’re His sheep or not? By whether or not you’ve responded to His call. And if you had responded to His call you are His sheep. If you haven’t responded to His call, then you’re not His sheep. Just that simple…

A lot of people wish that Jesus had not made that statement… one thing about Jesus making these radical claims, man, He forces you to a decision. Either He is the way to the Father, the only way to the Father, or there are other ways to the Father. And if there are other ways to the Father, then Jesus was not telling the truth… Jesus made this radical claim, and you either believe it or not.

I AM THE TRUE VINE
- Bible Verses
John 15:1-5 I am the true vine, and my Father is the husbandman. Every branch in me that beareth not fruit he taketh away: and every branch that beareth fruit, he purgeth it, that it may bring forth more fruit. Now ye are clean through the word which I have spoken unto you. Abide in me, and I in you. As the branch cannot bear fruit of itself, except it abide in the vine; no more can ye, except ye abide in me. I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

- Information
John 15 (Pastor Chuck Smith) You cannot bring forth any worthwhile fruit unto God apart from that indwelling power of Jesus Christ. Anything that you endeavor to do for God apart from Jesus Christ is worthless. It is as wood, hay, and stubble that will burn when the day of judgment comes. The only lasting fruit is that which is produced as the result of the relationship with Jesus Christ… The fruit that comes forth from our lives is a very natural thing; it’s not forced. That apple hanging on the tree is not out there struggling and striving and pushing and doing its best to get ripe. All it has to do is just hang in there and it’s going to ripen… And I just need to hang in there, just to abide in Christ, and the natural result of abiding in Christ is my life is going to bring forth fruit… I start out as I receive Jesus Christ. I am grafted into the vine; I become a part of it, I begin to take nourishment from Him. And as my life begins to bring forth fruit, then His Word cleanses me that I might bring forth more fruit. And as I abide in Him, then I begin to bring forth much fruit. And herein is my Father glorified; this is what my Father wants, that my life bear much fruit for Him.
