What is the eighth I Am in Revelation?
The eighth I Am in Revelation is Christ as the I Am of the bright and morning star. It follows the seven I Am's of the Old Testament and John, and it marks the new beginning of the eternal day, corresponding to the number eight as a new beginning after completion of seven.
Les explains that seven refers to deity and completion, while eight follows the completion of seven and signifies a new beginning. He illustrates this with the eight souls saved in Noah's Ark, who became the new beginning after the flood. In Revelation, Christ is the I Am of the bright and morning star, which Les identifies as the eighth I Am—the new beginning of the eternal day. Les contrasts this with the Antichrist, who is also an eighth but goes into perdition, showing that not every eighth is a godly new beginning.
