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)

"I AM" in Hebrew

No Separation


For I have become persuaded that
OO-tuh THAHN-ah-toss OO-tuh zow-AY
(Neither death nor life)
OO-tuh AHNG-ell-oy Oh-tuh arCH-EYE
(Neither angels nor principalities)
OO-tuh en-es-TOW-tah OO-tuh MELL-on-tah
(Neither things present nor things to come)
OO-tuh dy-NA-mice
(Nor, yet, powers),
OO-tuh HYPS-oh-mah OO-tuh BATH-oss
(Neither height nor depth)
OO-tuh tiss KTISS-iss hett-AIR-ah
(Nor, yet, any other created thing)
Shall be able to separate us from the Love of God
Which is in Christ Jesus, Our Lord.

---St. Paul, Romans 8: 38-39
