Jesus. Jesus and you!

Alpha and Omega

"And He said to me, It is done! I am the Alpha and Omega,  the Beginning and the End. I will give of the fountain of water of life freely to him who thirsts. He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be his God, and He shall be My son."  Revelations 21: 6 to 7.

The scripture above is deserving to have an entire book written about it, and not just a small article, and so I will briefly cover just a few small highlights of the scripture.  "It is Done!" There is so much that has been done. Jesus has come to earth, conquered death and Hades, and has returned to heaven to sit at the right hand of the Father. The work of Jesus on earth has been completed and all authority has now been given to the believer. Also the new heaven and the new earth has been created and now sits in waiting for the time that the Father has allocated for it.

"I am the Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the End," God is the Beginning of all things and through Him were all things created. He created the heavens and the earth and all life contained within it. When we accept Jesus as Lord of our lives, we are made a new creation. God is our beginning in life.  Without God there is nothing. God is also the End, and He is able to destroy or put an end to all things which He created. At the end of our own lives on earth, we will come face to face with God and all His Glory.

"I will give of the fountain of the water of life freely to Him who thirsts." Jesus is the fountain of the water of life and all who come to Jesus, thirsty, will draw from the fountain and will never thirst again. Rivers of life shall flow from them.

"He who overcomes shall inherit all things, and I will be His God and he shall be My son." Who is he who overcomes, but he who confesses that Jesus is the Christ, the Son of the living God.

Jesus is the way to the Father and unless you have received Jesus into your life as your personal Lord and Saviour, and have drank from the fountain of the water of life, which is the love of Jesus, you shall by no means enter the kingdom of God and experience the new heaven and new earth as revealed in Revelations 21.
