The 7 "I Am" Statements of Jesus

1. THE BREAD OF LIFE

• And Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to Me shall never hunger, and he who believes in Me shall never thirst.” (John 6:35,48)
• I am the living bread which came down from heaven. If anyone eats of this bread, he will live forever; and the bread that I shall give is My flesh, which I shall give for the life of the world.” (John 6:51)

Jesus satisfies and gives everlasting, unending life!

2. THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD

• Then Jesus spoke to them again, saying, “I am the light of the world. He who follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but have the light of life.” (John 8:12)
• As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.” (John 9:5)

Jesus is the only source of true spiritual illumination, providing guidance, truth, spiritual sight and life to a world lost in spiritual darkness/blindness (sin, error, ignorance, confusion and separation from God)!

3. THE DOOR OF THE SHEEP

• Then Jesus said to them again, “Most assuredly, I say to you, I am the door of the sheep.” (John 10:7)
• I am the door. If anyone enters by Me, he will be saved, and will go in and out and find pasture. (John 10:9)

Jesus is the only way to the kingdom of God, spiritual nourishment and abundant life (spiritual richness, peace, and fulfillment)!

4. THE GOOD SHEPHERD

• I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd gives His life for the sheep. (John 10:11)
• I am the good shepherd; and I know My sheep, and am known by My own. (John 10:14)

Jesus protects and cares for all who belong to Him!

5. THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE

• Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in Me, though he may die, he shall live.” (John 11:25)

Those in Christ have victory over death and the grave and have eternal life!

6. THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE

• Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.” (John 14:6)

Jesus is the exclusive path to God, to salvation; Jesus is the full revelation of God, He is the source of all truth and knowledge about God, His Word is the unquestionable Truth; Jesus alone is the source of life, He is the Creator and Sustainer of all life and the Giver of eternal life!

7. THE TRUE VINE

• I am the true vine, and My Father is the vinedresser (John 15:1)
• I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing (John 15:5)

Only those who are joined in vital union with Christ can be divinely fruitful!

My friends, don’t procrastinate any longer, come to Jesus Christ today!
