Is Jesus the God of the Old Testament? In 3 books of the Bible, we see the phrase “I AM HE” in Deuteronomy, Isaiah, and Revelation. The phrase “I AM HE” is found 18 times in the King James Bible in connection with describing God. The number 18 is defined in the King James Bible for bondage. Only in the book of John do we see Jesus Christ connected with the title “I AM HE.” In the Book of John, this title is mentioned 7 times. Seven is the number defined in the King James Bible for divine completeness and spiritual perfection. Eighteen times, we read in 3 books of the Bible the characteristics and power of the great “I AM HE.” What does the number 3 mean in the Bible? It is the number for the Godhead. Consider this passage of scripture:

(1 John 5:7) “For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one.“

Notice the verse number is 7
