Jesus is described in many ways throughout the Bible. He is known as Christ, Lord, Saviour, the Son of God, and the Son of Man. He is also called the Alpha and Omega, meaning the beginning and the end. Other names include the son of David, the great king, the lamb of God, and the lion from the tribe of Judah. These titles reflect different parts of who he is and what he came to do.
In the Gospel of John, Jesus makes seven statements that begin with βI am,β where he reveals more about himself. One important statement is found in John 14:6, where Jesus says, βI am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me.β Jesus does not just show the way to God. He is the way.
Through Jesus, people can know the truth and receive life that never ends.
And there is salvation in no one else; for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among mankind by which we must be saved.β
Acts 4:12
