Sermon Text:
John 6:35-40
35 Jesus said to them, “I am the bread of life; whoever comes to me shall not hunger, and whoever believes in me shall never thirst. 36 But I said to you that you have seen me and yet do not believe. 37 All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me I will never cast out. 38 For I have come down from heaven, not to do my own will but the will of him who sent me. 39 And this is the will of him who sent me, that I should lose nothing of all that he has given me, but raise it up on the last day. 40 For this is the will of my Father, that everyone who looks on the Son and believes in him should have eternal life, and I will raise him up on the last day.”
Sermon Notes:
The Seven “I AM” Statements of Jesus
I AM the bread of life.
John 6:35: Then Jesus declared, “I am the bread of life. He who comes to me will never go hungry, and he who believes in me will never be thirsty.
John 6:48: I am the bread of life.
I AM the light of the world.
John 8:12: When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.”
John 9:5: While I am in the world, I am the light of the world.”
I AM the door.
John 10:7: Therefore Jesus said again, “I tell you the truth, I am the gate for the sheep.”
I AM the good shepherd.
John 10:11-14: “I am the good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep. The hired hand is not the shepherd who owns the sheep. So when he sees the wolf coming, he abandons the sheep and runs away. Then the wolf attacks the flock and scatters it. The man runs away because he is a hired hand and cares nothing for the sheep. “I am the good shepherd; I know my sheep and my sheep know me….”
I AM the resurrection and the life.
John 11:25: Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. He who believes in me will live, even though he dies.”
I AM the way, the truth and the life.
John 14:6: Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.”
I AM the true vine.
John15:1, 5: “I am the true vine, and my Father is the
gardener. I am the vine; you are the branches. If a
man remains in me and I in him, he will bear much
fruit; apart from me you can do nothing.”
