Exploring the grace of Jesus Christ

In the Old Testament there are two words that point forward to Jesus again and again, "I AM"

Jesus says I AM all throughout the New Testament. He says I AM the Mana that fed God's people in the wilderness. He says I AM the shepherd that leads you through your brokenness. He says I AM the light that shines in the darkness. He says I AM. before Abraham. He says all of this, I AM the resurrection I AM of the vine, I AM the way, I AM the truth, I AM the life and He does this to show that He is GOD the Word, before the foundations of time.

All the signs of the Old Testament point forward to Jesus in the New Testament and whether that sign was the water he turned into wine at a wedding that pointed to the blood he would be shedding so that he may provide for His bride, the church, a marriage never ending! Whether the sign was raising Lazarus from the dead that pointed to what He would do from his own deathbed, the resurrection so all who believe in him share in that resurrection. Whether the sign was turning over tables in the temple to show that His sacrificial death would fulfill the need of animal sacrifice, being sold in His Fathers house. Whether the sign was offering eternal water to the samaritan woman to show that from Him came living streams of water, everlasting life for all nations! All a shadow of His once and for all self sacrifice to fulfill the Law and bring salvation and once and for all forgiveness to all who believe!

Whatever the sign was the message that would be told is that Jesus, who is God, the great 'I AM' was going through death and resurrection to save us from eternal separation from God. To bring this us into never ending eternal salvation with Father, Jesus and Spirit!
