Jesus said 7 times in the book of John, “I Am…”.  The Seventh “I Am” spoken by Jesus is, “I Am The True Vine”. The disciples were afraid and worried because Jesus is leaving them. He is only hours away from the cross, and this “I AM” is designed to encourage them to stay connected to Him.  The world will offer other options, paths, ways, religions, and other ways of thinking.  Jesus tells them, I am going away, but I have a work for you to do while I am away. But what will that require of us? Through these messages we will learn that The Power in His name and position, verifies who He claims to be! The Great I Am… everything believers need to sustain them in these chaotic and troublesome times.
