"He Is Both Lord And Christ! "St. John 1:1; Acts 2:36""
Praise The Lord To All. (Who shall declare His
generation?)
In Rev. 22:6, it declares that the "Lord
God of the holy prophets sent His angel to show unto His servants things which
must shortly be done," but in the 16th verse of Revelation, JESUS says
in plain words, that cannot be misunderstood: "I JESUS have sent Mine
angel to testify unto these things in the churches." This sets forth clearly
that Jesus Christ is BOTH.
That Jesus Christ
is BOTH the God of Abraham, and the promise SEED
of Abraham, may be seen from the following scriptures: In Gal. 3:16 we
find that Christ is the seed of Abraham; but in comparing Rev. 1:8, where Jesus
declares Himself to be the Almighty with Ex. 6:2,3, where God
declares that Abraham knew Him, not by His name JEHOVAH, but by the name
of God ALMIGHTY; then compare this with John 8:56-58, we have
conclusive evidence that Jesus Christ is
BOTH.
In the fourth chapter of
Revelation we read of "One sitting on the throne," and that the
four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before "Him that sat on
the throne," and cast down their crowns, saying, "Thou art
worthy, O Lord, to receive glory, and honor, and power, for thou hast created
all things and for Thy pleasure they are and were created." That this
refers to Jesus Christ, in His glory, everyone will admit (Col.
1:16), but in the fifth chapter of Revelation we find a "Lamb, as it had
been slain," which cometh forth and takes the Book out
of the right hand of "Him that sat upon the
throne."
That this Lamb is Jesus none
will attempt, I hope, to deny. Then combining the record in the 22nd
chapter of Revelation, we find that the Throne of God and the Lamb is
one throne, and it further declares that "His servants shall SERVE HIM (not
"them"), and they shall see HIS face, (not "their" faces); and "HIS NAME shall
be in their foreheads," (not "their" names). From this it can be clearly seen
that Jesus Christ is BOTH the Lord God and the
Lamb.
