I Am the I AM

John 8 is just so important. In a sense, it’s a catastrophic chapter because there’s a constant collision going on, all surrounding the question of “who is Jesus Christ?”  We’re going to see that question here in verse 53, “Who do you make yourself out to be?” 

And Jesus is going to give one of the most astounding, powerful answers ever given. In fact, it’s so astounding, so audacious, that Jesus is either telling the truth, or He’s pulling off the biggest con in the history of the world. And that’s because, at the heart of this passage, Jesus is saying, “in answer to all your questions, the answer is that I am the I AM.”
