But when Jesus had finished his earth life,
this name of the Father had been so
revealed that the Master, who was the
Father incarnate, could truly say:

I AM THE BREAD OF LIFE
I AM THE LIVING WATER
I AM THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD
I AM THE DESIRE OF ALL AGES
I AM THE OPEN DOOR TO ETERNAL SALVATION
I AM THE REALITY OF ENDLESS LIFE
I AM THE GOOD SHEPHERD
I AM THE PATHWAY OF INFINITE PERFECTION
I AM THE RESURRECTION AND THE LIFE
I AM THE SECRET OF ETERNAL SURVIVAL
I AM THE WAY, THE TRUTH, AND THE LIFE
I AM THE INFINITE FATHER OF MY FINITE CHILDREN
I AM THE TRUE VINE; YOUR ARE THE BRANCHES
I AM THE HOPE OF ALL WHO KNOW THE LIVING TRUTH
I AM THE LIVING BRIDGE FROM ONE WORLD TO ANOTHER
I AM THE LIVING LINK BETWEEN TIME AND ETERNITY

Thus did Jesus enlarge the living revelation of the name of God to all generations. As divine love reveals the nature of God, eternal truth discloses his name in ever enlarging proportions.
