And when Yeshua said to them, “I AM THE LIVING GOD”, they went backward and fell to the ground.” John 18:5-6 “They were saying to him, “Yeshua the Nazarene.” Yeshua said to them, “I AM THE LIVING GOD.” But Yehuda the traitor was also standing with them. “Now I am telling you before it happens, that when it has occurred, you shall believe that I AM THE LIVING GOD.” John 13:19 “Yeshua said to them: “Timeless truth I speak to you: Before Abraham would exist, I AM THE LIVING GOD.” John 8:58 “I said to you that you shall die in your sins, for unless you shall believe that I AM THE LIVING GOD, you shall die in your sins.” John 8:24 “But Yeshua said to them, “I AM THE LIVING GOD, do not be afraid.” John 6:20 Simply put, most New Testaments are a translation of a translation. This is important as most popular English New Testaments come from Greek translations originally converted from Hebrew and Aramaic texts. “Yeshua said to her, “I AM THE LIVING GOD, I who am speaking with you.” John 4:26 The Aramaic text used in crafting the AENT is the most original autograph that modern scholars have encountered. “ But all of them were saying, “You are therefore the Son of God?” Yeshua said to them, “You are saying that I AM THE LIVING GOD.” Luke 22:70Īnd finally, from the Gospel of John the Beloved: “But Yeshua said to him, “I AM THE LIVING GOD, and you shall behold The Son of Man sitting at the right hand of Power and coming on the clouds of Heaven.” Mark 14:62 “For they all saw him and they were afraid and immediately he spoke with them and he said to them, “Take heart, I AM THE LIVING GOD do not be afraid.” Mark 6:50 We will do this simply by quoting the verses in which Jesus unabashedly proclaims that He is God using the translation known as the Aramaic Bible in Plain English.īut Yeshua immediately spoke with them and he said, “Take heart I AM THE LIVING GOD.
In it we will combine Jesus’ pronouncements of His deity with the Muslim love of Aramaic, albeit translated into easily comprehensible English. But the similarities between Aramaic, Hebrew, and Arabic are only proof that they have the same Semitic roots and not much more.īut Muslims have not stopped claiming that Jesus never said He was God in the Bible, a fact which has been proven on this blog a (growing) number of times, and so this post is being written. It has been pointed out in previous posts that Muslims seem enamored with the fact that the Lord Jesus Christ spoke Aramaic, primarily because they believe it proves that He worshiped their god, Allah.
