John 856-59 (NET Bible)
56 Your father Abraham was overjoyed to see my
day, and he saw it and was glad. 57 Then the
Judeans replied, You are not yet fifty years
old! Have you seen Abraham? 58 Jesus said to
them, I tell you the solemn truth, before
Abraham came into existence, I am! 59 Then they
picked up stones to throw at him, but Jesus hid
himself and went out from the temple area.

The Preexistence of the King
Jesus, then, was not created, He was eternally
existent with the Father (and the Holy Spirit).
His birth by Mary was merely an incarnation, not
the beginning of His existence which was
eternal. M.S. Mills, The Life of Christ

Revelation 215-6 (NET Bible)
5 And the one seated on the throne said Look! I
am making all things new! Then he said to me,
Write it down, because these words are reliable
and true. 6 He also said to me, It is done! I
am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the
end. To the one who is thirsty I will give water
free of charge from the spring of the water of
life.

Revelation 117-18 (NET Bible)
17 When I saw him I fell down at his feet as
though I were dead, but he placed his right hand
on me and said Do not be afraid! I am the first
and the last, 18 and the one who lives! I was
dead, but look, now I am alive forever and ever
and I hold the keys of death and of Hades!

Revelation 2213-16 (NET Bible)
13 I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and
the last, the beginning and the end!) 14 Blessed
are those who wash their robes so they can have
access to the tree of life and can enter into the
city by the gates. 15 Outside are the dogs and
the sorcerers and the sexually immoral, and the
murderers, and the idolaters and everyone who
loves and practices falsehood! 16 I, Jesus, have
sent my angel to testify to you about these
things for the churches. I am the root and the
descendant of David, the bright morning star!

John 13-5 (NET Bible)
3 All things were created by him, and apart from
him not one thing was created that has been
created. 4 In him was life, and the life was the
light of mankind. 5 And the light shines on in
the darkness, but the darkness has not mastered
it.

Colossians 115-17 (NET Bible)
15 He is the image of the invisible God, the
firstborn over all creation, 16 for all things in
heaven and on earth were created by him all
things, whether visible or invisible, whether
thrones or dominions, whether principalities or
powers all things were created through him and
for him. 17 He himself is before all things and
all things are held together in him.

John 19-14 (NET Bible)
9 The true light, who gives light to everyone,
was coming into the world. 10 He was in the
world, and the world was created by him, but the
world did not recognize him. 11 He came to what
was his own, but his own people did not receive
him. 12 But to all who have received him those
who believe in his name he has given the right
to become Gods children 13 children not born
by human parents or by human desire or a
husbands decision, but by God.

John 19-14 (NET Bible)
14 Now the Word became flesh and took up

of the one and only, full of grace and truth, who
came from the Father.

Philippians 25-7 (NET Bible)
5 You should have the same attitude toward one
another that Christ Jesus had, 6 who though he
existed in the form of God did not regard
equality with God as something to be grasped, 7
but emptied himself by taking on the form of a
slave, by looking like other men, and by sharing
in human nature.
