Tonight we��re launching into a mini-series titled EPIPHANY. Epiphany is a season in the liturgical calendar of the church that centers on the manifestation of Jesus Christ to the world as the Son of God. The church calendar recognizes the season of Epiphany from January 6 until the last Sunday before Ash Wednesday which is celebrated as the Transfiguration of our Lord. The Lord willing we will wrap up this series right before Easter.

This is the FIFTH of the amazing I AM declarations that Jesus made. REMEMBER �� Whenever Jesus uses the term I AM �� He is declaring Himself to be the God of Exodus 3. Exodus 3:13-15 3 Then Moses said to God, ��If I come to the people of Israel and say to them, ��The God of your fathers has sent me to you,�� and they ask me, ��What is his name?�� what shall I say to them?�� 14 God said to Moses, ��I am who I am..... Say this to the people of Israel, ��I am has sent me to you..... This is my name forever, and thus I am to be remembered throughout all generations. ��I AM the resurrection and the life�� With this 5th I AM declaration �� Jesus took the subject of resurrection out of the realm of abstract theology and placed it into the personal. With one statement Jesus took the subject of resurrection out of a book and put it into a person �� Himself.

There are thousands of men and women filling seats and pews in countless churches today who say that they ��believe�� in Jesus. But in truth they do not come to Jesus; believe in Jesus; and worship Jesus as the resurrection and the life! They are still looking to and trusting in other things to give them life �� a husband or wife; a baby; a job; a home; a car. The Bible calls those things idols. They come to Jesus because they see Him as the one who can give them their idols! For them Jesus is not the Resurrection and the Life �� He is the idol giver! When Jesus asks �� Do you believe this �� He means, Do you believe that He is the resurrection and the life in the sense that it moves you to cast yourselves on Jesus Christ as your Savior �� as the one who alone can give you life and victory over sin and death? THAT is the ONLY kind of faith that unites you with Jesus �� who IS the resurrection and the life! And THAT is Christianity!
