"I AM"

The Name of God.

God reveals His Name first to Moses, I AM, the name expresses the nature and actions of God, He has always existed and time has not effect or mean anything to Him. This indicates, by the name, that He was the absolute God, who can act and has ability which cannot be exceeded, a Divine Being which controls all things.
What God is now, He always will be,I AM indicates always has been, God can never be greater or less than He is. "I AM" indicates all God can be; He is self-existent, changeless, eternal, always will be, always IS.

Exodus 3:14 And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

Because Jesus used the name, the religious leaders said He was blaspheming because by using the name he was claiming to be God.
