John 8:58-59
Jesus said to them, “Most assuredly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.”

Since January 10, 2018, I have gone through the Bible and wrote about scripture that stuck out to me; embedded in my mind because of years of study or reading.
Almost two years later I continue.
This scripture ties into one from February 12, 2018 “I AM. And I am glad He Is!”
Jesus makes removes all doubt as to Who He is! The Jews picked up on this too.
Jesus is I AM.
He Is!
He is yesterday, today, and forever, the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end.
He is God!
Now if someone came up to me and said, “I am God” or “I am the Messiah”, I wouldn’t pay him much attention. I may attempt to convince such a person through scripture that he isn’t God or Messiah.
Every time the Jews tried scripture on Jesus, they lost.
So instead, they just pick up stones to kill him. (What part of “thou shalt not kill” did they not understand?”)
Jesus was Who He said He was and He still is so I know no one else is!
Besides, He won’t return and walk around. He will return in the clouds and the dead in Christ will rise first and the living for Christ will be caught up with them in the air. (1 Thess 4:15-18)
