Jesus claimed pre-existence to Abraham and more. By using the phrase “I am,” he claimed to be God. This is the Name that God gave Moses at the burning bush. Not “I was.” Nor “I will be,” But “I am.” Self-existent. Eternally present. God.
“I tell you the truth,’ Jesus answered, ‘before Abraham was born, I am'” (John 8:58)
