\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0JESUS\u2013ALPHA & OMEGA<\/span><\/span><\/span>
\nIf Jesus is Alpha and Omega \u00a0(God), God foretold his birth, life, death, and resurrection. Magnificent! Astoundingly magnificent that God foretold his Birth. Only in the logic of CHRISTENDOM \u2013the monument of make-believes:<\/span><\/span>
\n\u2013the make-believe prophecies (Jesus-foretold<\/span>) <\/span><\/a><\/span>
\n\u2013the make-believe virgin birth (see Jesus birth in Bible & Qur’an<\/span>)<\/span><\/a><\/span>
\n\u2013the make-believe (see Home<\/span>)<\/span><\/a><\/span>
\n\u2013the make-believe \u201cbegotten\u201d Son of G<\/span><\/a>od<\/span><\/span>
\n\u2013the make-believe inherited sin<\/span><\/a>,<\/span> crucifixion and resurrection<\/span>
\n\u2013the make-believe return of Jesus Christ (Jesus-second<\/span> coming<\/span><\/a>; Jesus-1000-year rule<\/span><\/a><\/span>)<\/span><\/p>\n

All\u0101h revealed in His Qur\u2019an 57:3: \u201cHe is the First and the Last and the Manifest and the Hidden, and He is Knower of all things.\u201d
\n<\/span>And Muhammad Ali comments:<\/span>
\n\u201cThe Holy Prophet has thus explained the four attributes of the Divine Being mentioned here: \u201cThou art the First<\/em>, so that there was nothing before Thee, and Thou art the Last<\/em>, so that there is nothing after Thee, and Thou art the Manifest<\/em>, or the Ascendant <\/em>over all, so that there is nothing above Thee, and Thou art the Hidden, the Knower <\/em>of the hidden things, so that there is nothing hidden from Thee\u201d (Ms. 48:13).<\/span><\/p>\n

Jesus says \u201cI am the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last\u201d\u2013(Revelation 22:13).
\n<\/span>Jesus also says \u201cI am the root and the offspring of David\u201d\u2013(Revelation 22:16).\u00a0<\/span>So who is\/was Jesus really? The First\/Creator of David or the offspring\/seed of David?<\/span><\/p>\n

If Jesus is God because he is the beginning and the end,\u00a0 Melchisedec is a greater God because he has no beginning and no end and no mother or father (Hebrews 7:1-3. Jesus had at least a mother).<\/span>
\nIf Jesus is God, who gave Jesus power and authority to perform miracles and forgive sins? And if Jesus had authority to forgive how is it he exhorted his followers to ask GOD for forgiveness, (the Lord\u2019s Prayer).<\/span>
\nIf Jesus is God<\/span><\/a> <\/span>to whom was he praying; and thanking as having heard him (at his raising of Lazarus); and to whom did he ascend; and who sent him, and who had \u201cforsaken\u201d him (at his cry from the cross)?<\/span>
\nIf Jesus is \u00a0God<\/span><\/a>, God is sitting on his own right hand; and God led himself to be tempted by the devil.<\/span>
\nIf Jesus is God<\/span><\/a>,<\/span> God lacked knowledge, not knowing that Elijah and Enoch had ascended to heaven; and not knowing the day and hour of future events; that fig was not in season; and the identity of the woman with issues who touched his garment.<\/span><\/p>\n

If Jesus is \u201cAlpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last,\u201d this Christian\u2019s God, who is called Immanuel, needs to eat butter and honey to differentiate between evil and good: \u201cButter and honey shall he eat, that he may know to refuse the evil, and choose the good\u201d\u2013(Isaiah 7:14-15).
\n<\/span>If \u201cbutter and honey\u201d can guide \u201cGod\u201d into goodness consider the wonders \u201cbutter and honey\u201d can do to humans. Governments are to dole out mega doses to kindergarteners; then we would not have any crimes and misbehaving people. We would have found our Utopia!<\/span>
\nIf \u201cGod\u201d needed to eat \u201cbutter and honey\u201d to differentiate between evil and good, obviously the Christian\u2019s \u201cGod\u201d did not eat enough \u201cbutter and honey,\u201d\u00a0because he committed the \u201cevil\u201d of hypocrisy<\/span> <\/a><\/span>and lying\/deception<\/span><\/a><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/span>Whereas Christians say Jesus is Alpha and Omega (God), the question is who revealed the Book of Revelation and who wrote it? Revelation 1:1-2 states:<\/span>
\n\u201cThe Revelation of Jesus Christ, which GOD gave unto him (Jesus), to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: Who bare record of the word of GOD, AND of the testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.\u201d
\n<\/span>Here we have God AND Jesus as two distinct personalities. \u00a0<\/span>How then is Jesus God \u2013the Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last\u201d?<\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

As to who wrote Revelation, Encyclopaedia Britannica<\/em> notes about the Book of Revelation:<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cRevelation to John appears to be a collection of separate units composed by unknown authors who lived during the last quarter of the first century,<\/span> though it purports to have been written by John\u2026<\/span>
\nAlthough Christ is clearly the central figure of Revelation, an understanding of the text presupposes familiarity with the Old Testament language and concepts, especially those taken from the books of Daniel and Ezekiel \u2026References to a \u201cthousand years\u201d (ch. 20) have led some to expect that the final victory over evil will come after the completion of some millennium.\u201d1
\n<\/sup><\/span>\u00a0 \u201cOne of the most pervading and dominant mythological themes to be noted in the New Testament and the writings of the subapostolic church (late 1st\u2013early 2nd centuries) was that of the ages of the world. Derived from Indo-Iranian (or Indo-European) sources and transformed through Jewish concepts of history, the theme of the ages of the world that most influenced Christianity came from the apocalyptic speculation<\/span> that flourished during the period of the rise of Christianity.<\/span>
\n\u2026It was Iranian mythological concepts of the ages of the world, translated though Jewish apocalyptic views, that most influenced Christian views of time, history, and man\u2019s ultimate destiny.<\/span><\/span>
\n\u2026The theme of the ages of the world and its attendant subthemes that came primarily from Iranian mythology were transformed by apocalyptic literature\u2013\u2013which flourished in Judaism and then Christianity from about the 2nd century BC to about 2nd century AD\u2013\u2013into a historical context,<\/span> though Zoroastrian had done this in reference to the last age. Indo-Iranian myth was thus historicized through the Judeo-Christian view of historical time as the arena of struggle between good and evil.<\/span> The four ages of the world in Christianity are: (1) from creation of the world and man to the Fall of man; (2) from the Fall of man to the first advent of Christ; (3) from the first to the second advent of Christ, which includes the 1,000-year reign of Christ and his saints and the Last Judgment; and (4) the creation of a new heaven and a new earth in which those who have chosen the good (i.e.,<\/em> Christ) will live in eternity.\u201d2<\/sup><\/span><\/span><\/p>\n

So much for Jesus being \u201cthe Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last\u201d (and his return).<\/span>
\nBut the matter does not end here.<\/span>
\nBacchus called Dionysius, Buddha and Lord Krishna, all of whom preceded Jesus Christ, claimed to be \u201cAlpha and Omega\u201d in one strain or the other:<\/span><\/p>\n
