Adult Sunday School
for 30 August 2020.
Below is a list of Jesus’ seven “I Am” statements in the
book of John. Please review one each day
this week and be prepared to discuss these and other areas of interest from
John’s Gospel.
“I am the bread of life.” (John 6:35, 41, 48, 51) As bread
sustains physical life, so Christ offers and sustains spiritual life.
“I am the light of
the world.” (John 8:12) To a world lost in darkness, Christ offers Himself as a
guide.
“I am the door of the sheep.” (John 10:7,9) Jesus protects
His followers as shepherds protect their flocks from predators.
“I am the good shepherd.” (John 10:11, 14) Jesus is
committed to caring and watching over those who are His.
“I am the resurrection and the life.” (John 11:25) Death is
not the final word for those in Christ.
“I am the way, the truth, and the life.” (John 14:6) Jesus
is the source of all truth and knowledge about God.
“I am the true vine.” (John 15:1, 5) By attached ourselves
to Christ, we enable His life to flow in and through us. Then we cannot help
but bear fruit that will honor the Father.
