    G'Day,

    Following are some thoughts for you to ponder, not to challenge your faith etc, but they may prompt some thoughts of yours, of which I've not considered?

    I, John, your brother and partner in the tribulation and the kingdom and the patient endurance that are in Jesus, was on the island called Patmos on account of the word of God and the testimony of Jesus. I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet saying, “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last,” and, “What you see, write in a book and send it to the seven churches which are in Asia: to Ephesus, to Smyrna, to Pergamos, to Thyatira, to Sardis, to Philadelphia, and to Laodicea.”

    "Write what you see in a book and send it to the seven churches, to Ephesus and to Smyrna and to Pergamum and to Thyatira and to Sardis and to Philadelphia and to Laodicea." Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking to me, and on turning I saw seven golden lampstands, and in the midst of the lampstands
    one like a son of man, clothed with a long robe and with a golden sash around his chest. The hairs of his head were white, like white wool, like snow. His eyes were like a flame of fire, his feet were like burnished bronze, refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the roar of many waters. In his right hand he held seven stars, from his mouth came a sharp two-edged sword, and his face was like the sun shining in full strength. When I saw him, I fell at his feet as though dead. But he laid his right hand on me, saying, "Fear not, I am the first and the last, and the living one. I died, and behold I am alive forevermore, and I have the keys of Death and Hades. (Revelation 1:9-18 ESV)

    Do you know WHY they leave out the bold in the blue above in a lot of Bibles, when the Interlinear and the likes of the KJV show it?

    "Then I turned to see the voice that was speaking to me" -> voice like a Trumpet and not (Jesus's) = Interlinear - the voice of him (Jesus) like the voice of many waters.

    The voice of a Trumpet, it appears is the Alpha Omega = The Almighty God and Father.
    Voice of many waters, could very well be a twofold message, as waters can also be peoples, hence him being the voice (The Word of God representative Rev 19:13) for many peoples and;
    John 7:38 - He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

    Hence the voice of many waters, representing the word of God.


    "Scripture has said" = words, so the rivers of living water that would flow from one, would be his words of God (Fathers) = Spirit and life John 6:63.
    Spirit being confirmed in the 7:39, following 38.

    Jesus towards the end of Rev, is also referenced as an Alpha Omega (also titled with "the") - the Father and Son in their own rights (individually), are Alpha Omega's, Jesus being the image of the Father.
    Us being the image of, could possibly also be deemed as Alpha Omega's, but not "The" Alpha Omega's.

    I personally do not believe that Alpha Omega means either first and last or beginning and end, as those words are used separately, and I do not believe those two terms are repeated in the same verses.
    I feel that the Alpha Omega represents A to Z, the alphabet for words.

    1:1 ..............and God was the Word (is Word, which is his Spirit person expressed, when he express's words, which naturally you need an alphabet for lol).
    Hence Jesus became the express image of the Fathers person, when he expressed out the Fathers words Heb 1:3 KJV.

    Father - The Word and without the title "The" = WORD.
    Son - The Word of God and without the "Title" = Word of God.

    You are never the one or thing that you're "of".

    So in that regards, you could say that Jesus is a Word of God, for the Big Book that the Father is writing lol and if you become born again, you become a Word of God.
    Rev 21:27 - But there shall by no means enter it anything that defiles, or causes an abomination or a lie, but only those who are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.

    Mat 24:35 - Heaven and earth will pass away, but My words (You? lol) will by no means pass away. wink.png
    John 10:28, 29 - And I give them eternal life, and they shall never perish; neither shall anyone snatch them out of My hand.
    My Father, who has given them to Me, is greater than all; and no one is able to snatch them out of the Father’s hand.


    1 John 4:3 - and every spirit that does not confess that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is not of God.........................

    Obviously here, the confessing would be done with words, which they refer to as the spirit of one = referencing sprit and words as being one in the same.
