Each one is a metaphor that elevates Jesus to the level of Creator, Sustainer, Savior, and Lord-titles that can be claimed only by God. Now, the night before His death, He tells them, "I am the Vine." Like the other great "I am" passages recorded in the Gospel of John, it points to His deity. Jesus had already said, "I am the light of the world" (John 8:12) "I am the bread of life" (John 6:35) "I am the Way" (John 14:6) and "I am the Door" (John 10:9). The strongest affirmations of His deity employed the name for God used when the Father first revealed Himself to Moses-"I AM" (Exodus 3:14). At key points in His ministry, Christ emphasized His equality with God in the clearest possible terminology.
