After Jesus tells the scribes and Pharisees if ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also, in John 8:19, Jesus tells them:
| John 8:24 | I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins. |
The italics in the King James Bible are the marks of an honest translation. No one added these words to mislead us, or to change the word of God. Whenever the translators added a word, when translating from one language to the next, they put it in italics to inform the reader that the word was added. In John 8:24 the word “he” was added because it is in italics, so when we remove that added word we see the words of Jesus read; for if ye believe not that I am, ye shall die in your sins.
Jesus is the God of Israel:
| Exodus 3:13 | And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? |
| Exodus 3:14 | And God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you. |
Jesus is the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob:
| John 8:56 | Your father Abraham rejoiced to see my day: and he saw it, and was glad. |
| John 8:57 | Then said the Jews unto him, Thou art not yet fifty years old, and hast thou seen Abraham? |
| John 8:58 | Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. |
| John 8:59 | Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by. |
