Jesus was, and is, and is to come. And he is the Almighty. I trust that we recognize this, or I’d be led to think we did not notice that someone changed the tense of the verb in answering the question. The fact is that Jesus is all that he ever was or will be, for he is God. What a big mistake we make when we think of Jesus as a man, claiming to be God. The fact is that God became flesh and dwelt among us, believe it or not. Those who do not believe are in danger. Let me say that the assertion in the first sentence, above, is based on Revelation 4:8. The context might suggest that the words applied exclusively to the one who was seen sitting on the throne, the Father. In the next chapter Jesus is seen as the Lamb who takes a book from the hand of the one sitting on the throne. The lamb is worshipped them, in verses 8 and 9. He is worshipped because he is God, and only God is to be worshipped (Exodus 34:14;Acts 10,25,26 ; Rev 22:9). He is equal with God (John 10:33;Philippians 2:6) and he is equally to be honored (John 5:23). John the Apostle said it so simply (John 1:1) but he was telling us who Jesus was, and is. |
