    Rev.1.8 "Alpha and Omega"-1

    "I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty."

    Now we shall see the generation of Jesus Christ from the POV of the Law of the Spirit. What we looked at in Rev.ch.12 was with regards to the body' thou hast me prepared.'(Heb.105)"The Law gives us the creation of the worlds (Gen.1.1) and In the beginning is for setting the Covenant in terms of the generations in terms of the day decreed for the Son. So after presenting the Covenant in seven days the Spirit inserts this verse,"These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the LORD God made the earth and the heavens" (2.4) This day refers to the Father Son relationship so so earth serves the characteristics of the son in obedience to the Father in all things. But there shall be a point of time when God may be all in all and through all. "then shall the Son also himself be subject unto him that put all things under him, that God may be all in all."(1 Cor.15.27) That is the Omega aspoect of Jesus Christ.

    IRev.1.12-20 n the inaugural vision of John we have the same vision in ch.12 from the POV of the Law of the Spirit so the number Seven as the whole number we keep focus on.

    Instead of the woman clothed with the sun we have seven golden candlestands. In the midst it is Melchizedek the priest-king. The golden girdle girt about his paps connect visually with seven angels, and the altar. And 'clothed in pure and white linen, and having their breasts girded with golden girdles.(15.8)' Seven stars in his right hand and his visage in v.14 presents a face as his feel of the other face. "And his feet like unto fine brass, as if they burned in a furnace; and his voice as the sound of many waters." In Job 28 we have reference to both."The flood breaketh out from the inhabitant; even the waters forgotten of the foot: they are dried up." (28.15) Compare with Rev.12.16
