| Aug 09, 2009 "Drawn By the Father" John 6:35, 41-51 When God called Moses to set the people free, Moses asked him, "Who will I say has sent me to free them?" God told him to say, "I AM has sent me to you" (Exod. 3:14). It was a distinct title that no one else claimed: I AM identified God just as our names identify us. Today in our gospel text Jesus amazes his dissenters by identifying himself by the same name."I am the bread of life" (John 6:35). It is the first of many times in John's gospel in which Jesus identifies himself with God's own self-description. | ||
