---BEFORE ABRAHAM ~~

-'Then the Jews said to Him, "You are not yet fifty years old, and have You seen Abraham?" Jesus said to them, "Most assuredly,
I say to you, before Abraham was, I AM."
--(John 8:57-58 / NKJV)

--IN TODAY'S verses, Jesus makes the ultimate claim. He uses the phrase "I AM"--a phrase the Jews would have been familiar with as meaning, "Even from everlasting to everlasting," This is a direct answer to the objection of the Jews, and shows how much greater He was than Abraham."

You've probably encountered political correctness in your office or at school. If so, you've heard coworkers or classmates make the claim that all paths lead to Heaven, no matter the belief system. But as soon as you point out that Jesus claims to be God in the flesh, many will accuse you of being intolerant. Proclaim it anyway. Be as wise as serpents and as harmless as doves as you do so.

Jesus has indeed always existed, distinct from yet one with the Father and the Holy Spirit. And He is the only way to Heaven (John 14:6). angelwing Hold on to those truths. ~~

--"LORD, many people are resistant to the Gospel, so what I encounter on a regular basis is nothing new. I believe that Jesus is the great I AM, and I'm willing to continue to push against a culture that believes otherwise. Help me, to point others to You, the only Faithful One, in the Name above all other names, JESUS CHRIST." ~~

Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me." [John 14:6]
