I am is not a name but the absence of one.
I am was stripped of his name for bad behavior (the Gods can do that you know)

to be, to exist, to happen, to be present



Nave's Topical Bible

I am that i am

A name of deity
Exodus 3:14; Revelation 1:4,11,17



Genesis 17:1-27. RENEWAL OF THE COVENANT.

I am the Almighty God--the name by which He made Himself known to the patriarchs (Exodus 6:3), designed to convey the sense of "all-sufficient" (Psalms 16:5,6, 73:25).


Of particular interest in the New Testament, however, is the way in which the writers treat the theme "the name of Jesus." This is especially true in the writings of John. People are to believe on Jesus' name (John 1:12; 2:23) and to pray in his name (14:13-14). The power of God's name is in the name that God gave to Jesus (17:11-12).

*Jesus associates himself with God's mighty self-disclosure as "I AM" (8:58).

I know it doesn't mean that at all it isn't a name or the absence of a name,it was just an expression of God's action!

I AM THAT I AM

When God appeared to Moses at Sinai, commissioning him to deliver Israel; Moses, being well aware of the difficulty of impressing the people, asked by what name of God he should speak to them: "They shall say to me, What is his name?" Then "God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM .... say .... I AM hath sent me unto you" (Ex 3:14). The name of the Deity given here is similar to Hebrew [Yahweh] except that the form is not 3rd person future, as in the usual form, but the 1st person (Hebrew ['ehyeh]), since God is here speaking of Himself. The optional reading in the American Revised Version, margin is much to be preferred: "I WILL BE THAT I WILL BE," indicating His covenant pledge to be with and for Israel in all the ages to follow. For further explanation see above, II, 5.

There is only one God! Obviously...you need to get to know Him better...because God is LOVE...how can you get bad behavior from that? You haven't read the Bible have you? John 3:16 says something you need to know.

from this question, and several of your answers, you know the christian faith well. I AM is to say eternal one. in the past I AM, in the future I AM, and now I AM. I AM in not NO NAME, it is God's name, as introduced by himself. It was said to the jews so that they would know that the God who was present in creation, who was present for Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, is their God now.

Jesus said that he was I AM. he was implying his deity to the jews, who still, though it was almost 2000 years later remembered what moses had said. God also said I AM who I AM. the greatest of men must say i am what i am. God shows his superiority as one who must be accepted as he is, an unchanging being.

Did you know that Brianna means "high, noble, exalted" and is the feminine form of Brian. Why don't you try to live up to your name. No one teaches truth in this way.

All the Hebrew "names" are descriptive. You will learn more about the Bible than you ever thought possible if you learn to read it in the original Hebrew.

I beg your pardon? I AM is His Name!!!!!! That mean He who is everlasting, never changing and from eternity to eternity. He just who He is. The unfathomable, the only God. The Great I AM.

Are you so uneducated that you don't realize that he said that from the burning bush to identify himself later as Jesus. READ THE BIBLE.
