Ego Eimi

 

ἐγώ εἰμι

Jesus says: 

"I AM the world's Light             (John 8:12)
Who outshines eternal night."

"I AM the Good Shepherd        (John 10:14)
And the door for the sheep:      (John 10:7, 9)
The sheep hear My word
And within may safely sleep."

"I AM the Bread of Life;          (John 6)
The Way, the Truth and the Life;    (John 14:6)
The Resurrection and the Life."   (John 11:25)

"I AM the True Vine
And you are the branches--        (John 15: 1,5)
Without what is Mine,
You do only what man does."

εἰμι ἐγώ

Paul answers for all of us:
"Christ Jesus came into the world for sinners,
First of whom am I."      (I Timothy 1:15)

ἐγώ εἰμι

Jesus says:
"Before Abraham was, I AM."  (John 8:58)

There couldn't be a simpler sentence than, "I am".
There couldn't be a more profound sentence than, "I am".
