Who Is He?

Bill Brinkworth

Exodus 3:13 "And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? 14 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."

When the world ridicules, questions and doubts God, a Christian should brag on Him. Here is a little bragging on the Father according to His Word:

He is the greatest!
Genesis 35:11 "And God said unto him, I am God Almighty: be fruitful and multiply; a nation and a company of nations shall be of thee, and kings shall come out of thy loins."

Webster's 1828 dictionary defines "almighty" as "possessing all power, omnipotent, being of unlimited might, and being boundless sufficiency." No other can claim such characteristics.

He is and always will be!
Exodus 6: 2 "And God spake unto Moses, and said unto him, I am the LORD: " The Hebrew word for "Lord" here is Jehovah. Webster defines Jehovah as "...denotes the Permanent Being, as the substantive verb in all languages, is to be fixed, to stand, to remain or abide. This is a name peculiarly appropriate to the eternal Spirit, the unchangeable God, ..."
Exodus 3:14 "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."
Ephesians 3:21 "Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen."

He and Jesus are one!
John 10:30 "I and my Father are one."
John 14: 10 "Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works."

John 14:20 "At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me, and I in you."

He is THE God of all time!
Matthew 32: 32 "I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living. 33 And when the multitude heard this, they were astonished at his doctrine."
Revelation. 1:8 "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty."
Revelation 1: 18 "I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death."

He is all you’ll ever need!
John 6: 35 "And Jesus said unto them , I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and he that believeth on me shall never thirst." He is referring to spiritual desire and longing. He is the one that many are searching.

He is the difference!
John 8:12 "Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life." God is the difference in a world dark with sin.

He is not like you and me!
John 8: 23 "And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath ; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world."
John 17:16 "They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world."

He is not dead!
Matthew 28:6 "He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay."
Revelation 10:5 "And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven, 6 And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer: "

He is the way to eternal life!
John 11: 25 "Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: 26 And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?" The body may die, awaiting it's resurrection, but the soul will not.
John 14: 6 "Jesus saith unto him , I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me." April 10, 1999
