I've been working on a series about Jesus' "I Am" statements in John for my junior church class. I know this is nothing new and many others have written about these statements. However, I wanted to share some thoughts from Christ's statement in John 14:6. I've been familiar with this verse for most of my life. As a child I always thought it interesting that in German this verse contains examples of nouns in all three genders.
As I was studying it in the past couple of weeks, the following thought stood out to me:
Jesus makes a significant statement about Himself.
- once again, He affirms His deity - “I Am”
- “the way” - the means by which a person comes to God the Father
- “the truth” - the only true truth – anything that denies Jesus is not truth
- “the life” - the only means of real life

"anything that denies Jesus is not truth"
I like that. A lot.
Aronne,
Thanks for your comment. And yes, I really like that statement, too.
