”Where there is neither Greek nor Jew, circumcision nor uncircumcision, Barbarian, Scythian, bond nor free: but Christ is all, and in all.” | Colossians 3: 11
“I AM”
“And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.” (Exodus 3: 14)
To His elect people God is everything all the time.
He has always been God and He will always be God.
Yet, there is nothing more comforting and assuring to the saved sinner than to know that God is the ever-present “I AM.” He declares Himself to be “I AM” leaving what follows to be unwritten since He is the believer’s everything.
Jesus Christ is God and concerning His elect God says:
They are weak, “I AM” their strength.
They are poor, “I AM” their riches.
They are in trouble, “I AM” their help and comfort.
They are sick, “I AM” their healing and their health.
They are in darkness, “I AM” the Light of the world.
They are lost sheep, “I AM” the Door and the Good Shepherd.
They are unrighteous, “I AM” their righteousness.
They are unholy, “I AM” their holiness.
They are ungodly, “I AM” their God.
They are nothing, “I AM” their everything.
They are hungry, “I AM” the Bread of Life.
They are in darkness, “I AM” the Light of the world.
They are unprofitable branches, “I AM” the True Vine.
They are dead, “I AM” the Resurrection, the Way, the Truth, the Life.
As a preacher of the Gospel, the message I am to preach is clear and plain. “Speak unto the children of Israel, and say unto them, I AM the Lord your God.” (Leviticus 18: 2)
Dear sinner, if you are in Christ, God is all these things to you.
