και ειπεν ο θεος προς μωυσην εγω ειμι ο ων και ειπεν ουτως ερεις τοις υιοις ισραηλ ο ων απεσταλκεν με προς υμας.

And God spoke to Moses, saying, I am THE BEING; and he said, Thus shall ye say to the children of Israel, THE BEING has sent me to you.

ויאמר אלהים אל משה אהיה אשר אהיה ויאמר כה תאמר לבני ישראל אהיה שלחני אליכם.

"I am" in Hebrew is "אני Ani"...
The Greek counterpart is Είμαι Eimai...
"אני Ani" is not what G-d said to Moses, but, Ehyeh ashur Ehyeh, I EXIST, or I am He who Exists, or I am the BEING...
The Greek counterpart of this is:
Υπάρχω.
Ypárcho̱.

God said He was the Alpha & Omega - Jesus claims the same thing.
God said in Exodus 3:14 He is the great I AM. Jesus said the same thing seven times in John's gospel. John 1:1 1:14 - 6:35 - 8:12 - 10:9 - 8:58 - 18:6

Jesus Christ has 5 names (Isaiah 9:6) Wonderful, Counselor,Everlasting Father - The Mighty God The Prince of Peace. He also has 103 different titles: Son of God - Lamb of God - etc.

12 different people called Jesus Christ God

John - Paul - Titus - God - Thomas - James - Peter - King David - Isaiah - Micah - Mary - Solomon.


IN the book of Hebrews: God says; of the Son - Thy throne Oh God is forever. Hebrews 1:8

God always had (from the beginning) His voice - His Word - It is with Him (Within) Him. Your word(s) are with you (within) you.

It was God's Word that was made into flesh (John 1:14).

John 1:3 states that everything was created by the power of the Word (only) and that without the word was nothing made that was made.

Micah 5:2 Says (the ways of Jesus ) were from "everlasting".

We learn from the prayer of Jesus (John 17). That the Holy Spirit will not speak of himself - He will only speak of that which he hears from the Father.

Elohim = 3 (Genesis 1) The Son always gives all glory to the Father - The Spirit will only speak of what He has heard the father speak.

Let Us make man in our image! Father Son Spirit. These 3 are One. The Son & The Spirit give all glory to the Father.

I AM in Hebrew is a mistranslation.

I AM in John 8:58 is as well.

Belief in "I AM" being a name of God, unfortunately does not make it true.

Was God really the Father of Jesus?

"God is the Father of Spirits.”

He is the Father of all living things.

The Creator was everyone's father.

And mother.

Three of the Gospel writers had witness to the Father's words at Jesus' baptism, and said, "And there came a voice from heaven, saying, Thou art my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased."

The Father spoke and said that Jesus was His Son. Simple!

It also says, "listen to him."

Unfortunately, there is Sibling rivalry, whether blood related or not.
