I AM - THAT'S A NAME?

To understand what the human is, we must understand who God is and the bible provides that identification. We are required to listen to the bible's declarations about God and God's grace enables us to make the quantum leap to acceptance. God is the only self-existent and eternal being, existing in a way like no other being in the universe. He exists without origin or beginning. God confessed this concerning himself when Moses expressed his concern to God who had called him to lead the Israelites. Moses didn't know how to answer the Israelites if they were to ask him the name of the God whom he represented. God told Moses "I AM who I AM" and God instructed Moses to tell Israelites, "I AM has sent me to you." (Exodus 3:14). This name connotes existence without origin or beginning. God simply is, over and out. It signifies self-existence and eternality. God is the ultimate being, the one prime reality and source of all other reality. God is infinite. God is He, a pronoun which in this case speaks less to gender and more to the meaning that He has personality characterized by self-consciousness as well as self-determination. The essence of God distinguishes three persons who are neither three gods or three parts or modes of God but rather are coequal and coeternal. This trinity of persons that comprises the ultimate being confirms his communal personal nature.
