Why LORD JESUS in the Bible has said I AM the First and the Last?

Question

The alpha and the omega what is the real truth behind this statement of GOD.

Answer 1

Dear Friend,

We are the creation of God.Jesus is the son of God. He had a hypostatic personality i.e dual personality 1.God 2).Human. Universe was built by him with his voice and he has the full right to its control. when he desire to end the universe he can do it. God creates men in his own model. God give full independance over the all objects in the world. But he ruined his independance to eat the forbidden fruit given by the devil. The God is Omnipresent,Omniscient,Omnipotent.Whenver the God creates the universe,thus he can close the universe


With regards

In Isaiah 44.6,Jehovah rightly describes his own postion as the one and only Almighty God,saying,"I am the First and the Last,and besides me there is no God".When Jesus presents himself by the title "First and the Last", he is not claiming equality with Jehovah,the Grand Creator.he is using a title properly bestowed on him by God.In Isaiah,Jehovah was making a statement about his unique position as the true God.In Revelation,Jesus is talking about his bestowed title,calling attention to his unique resurrection.Jesus was indeed the "First" human to be resurrected to immortal spirit life(Co.1:18).Moreover,he is the "Last" to be so resurrected by Jehovah personally.
The expressions "the Alpha and the Omega" and "the first and the last" and "the beginning and the end" are parallel expressions and mean the same thing.They are applied to Jehovah God.(Isa.44:6).
Revelation catches up the thought in Isaiah and adds to it the point that he is coming:"'I am the Alpha and the Omega,'says Jehovah God,'the one who is and who was and who is coming,the Almighty'".
We must be reasonable.When we see an expression that is applied to Jehovah several times in its unlimited sense,and then come across it again but not specifically indicated as applying to Jehovah,we cannot become flighty and switch the expression to Christ Jesus;and especially when when we note it is applied elsewhere,not in its unlimited sense,but only
with definited limitation of meaning.Trinitarians try to capitalize on this expression to show it was used indiscriminately for either God,or Jesus,and in this way show God and Christ are the same.But logic and reason do not allow this,no more than do many other texts in the Bible.

Answer 3

Paul wrote in Revelations that a voice from the heavens told him this. That the end was upon the world and that a new beginning was there for the faithful, as the city of Jerusalem would rise into the heavens and shine like polished jasper, but the unfaithful, the liars, the murderers, cowards, etc. would be cast into fire and brimstone as a "second death".

Basically, it is saying that God brings a new beginning, but also the end of life. It's a reference to heaven and hell and the armageddon. It is saying the world is ending, but for those who believe in God, there is both an end and a new beginning.

Answer 4

Dear Friend,

Consider the following scripture:

The Supremacy of Christ
Colossions1:15He is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn over all creation. 16For by him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things were created by him and for him. 17He is before all things, and in him all things hold together. 18And he is the head of the body, the church; he is the beginning and the firstborn from among the dead, so that in everything he might have the supremacy. 19For God was pleased to have all his fullness dwell in him, 20and through him to reconcile to himself all things, whether things on earth or things in heaven, by making peace through his blood, shed on the cross.

This does not mean that God and Jesus are the same being as maybe you are thinking, this means that Jesus was the first being created by God, before anything else. Hence gods Son. He is the first in the sense of being created first, and being the first to rise to eternal life in the flesh, and the last because he is a live and can not die.

God said I am the alpha and the omega because he is without beginning or end. This is difficult for us to comprehend, but maybe we could ask Jesus when he reutrns?

God Bless

Dear Gracey,
If you believe the Bible then you know it does not lie. Therefore, If Jesus said he is the Alpha and the Omega, and God said he is the Alpha and the Omega, then Jesus and God are the same person. They are one. Jesus did not lie. The Bible did not lie. Amen

Answer 8
