"Jesus said to them, Verily, verily, I say to you, Before Abraham was, I am." John 8:58
"God said to Moses, "I AM WHO I AM," and he said, "You shall tell the children of Israel this: 'I AM has sent me to you.'" Exodus 3:14
I love this. God is so awesome and so all-encompassing that He defies human grammar. It does not say "Before Abraham was, I was". Or, "I existed before Abraham".
God is not past tense, He is present tense. Even when he spoke to Moses and said tell them I am sent you. This goes beyond what the human mind can fathom. We must fathom it in our spirit.
Everytime I see both of those passages with the phrase "I AM", it just gives me chills and thrills and the same time. Pause calmly and think about that. i.e. Selah
