JESUS IS THE ALPHA AND OMEGA

 JESUS IS THE ALPHA AND OMEGA

TEXT: “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.”

Revelation 22:13

Names in the Bible were very often reflective of a person’s character, who they were and what they represented. The many names of Jesus refer to His character and who he is. One such name is tucked away on the very last chapter of the Bible. That verse tells us a lot about who Jesus is.

Alpha is the first letter of the Greek alphabet.

Omega is the last letter of the Greek alphabet.

The verse means He is the first and the last.

And everything in between.

There was nothing before Christ. God the Father, God the Son and God the Holy Spirit dwelling in total and complete Trinitarian sufficiency. Before time. Before creation. Before angels. Before sin. There was Jesus. 

And when history comes to its conclusion and time will be no more, Jesus will still be Jesus!

Kinda hard to totally wrap your mind around all of that isn’t it? It sure is because He is the first and the last. Before Him nothing existed. Nobody created Him. Nobody made Him. He just always was! And always will be. What a God we serve!

This very Jesus loves sinners and died on a cross for His people. He holds them in His hand and He holds all their tomorrows. Take a quick minute and thank Him today for this meaningful name of Jesus.
