How can we know God? The Gospel of John is a good place to start. It has been called “the spiritual gospel,” because John, more than the other gospel writers, is concerned with revealing the nature and character of the Creator. A believer who wants to know God finds much to ponder in the seven “I Am” statements of Jesus recounted in John’s gospel. These statements, which echo God’s announcement of “I Am” to Moses in the Old Testament, use vivid imagery to capture our imagination and reveal the qualities of God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit.
