Exodus 3:13-15 (ESV)
“[13] Then Moses said to GOD, “If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, ‘The GOD of your fathers has sent me to you,’ and they ask me, ‘What is his name?’ what shall I say to them?” [14] GOD said to Moses, “”I AM WHO I AM”.” And HE said, “Say this to the people of Israel: ‘I AM has sent me to you.’” [15] GOD also said to Moses, “Say this to the people of Israel: ‘The LORD, the GOD of your fathers, the GOD of Abraham, the GOD of Isaac, and the GOD of Jacob, has sent me to you.’ This is MY NAME FOREVER, and thus I AM to be remembered throughout all generations.”
The place where I found the words in the paragraph below cannot be recalled right now, but I remembered them this morning and I am led to share???
“GOD is the ONLY ONE WHO can accurately describe HIMSELF as “I AM.” JESUS claimed the title I AM for HIMSELF in John 8:58. For the rest of us, “I am” is a false claim to self-sufficiency. We are NOT eternally constant or ever-present. Our ONLY HOPE is to abandon claims of our own sovereignty and sufficiency and cast ourselves upon the mercy of I AM.”
“I AM WHO I AM” is the NAME that GOD declares in Exodus 3:14 as HIS NAME! In John 8:58 “JESUS said to them, “Truly, truly, I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM.” In John 10:30
JESUS says “I AND THE FATHER ARE ONE.”
GOD THE FATHER, GOD THE SON, AND GOD THE HOLY SPIRIT are ONE!!!
