How do we know that Jesus is the I Am?

Answered in 1 source

Jesus identifies Himself as 'I Am' in John 8:58, asserting His eternal nature.

In John 8:58, Jesus declares, 'Before Abraham was, I am.' This statement is significant as it directly links Jesus to the divine name given to Moses in Exodus 3:14. By using 'I Am,' Jesus not only emphasizes His pre-existence before Abraham but also claims equality with God, which was understood by His audience as a bold declaration of His deity. This alignment with the name of God—'I Am'—confirms His eternal being and divine authority, illustrating that He is fully God, uncreated and everlasting.
