My God and King,

I humbly bow before You, Lord, laying all I have and am at Your feet. You made me, You saved me, and with joy I confess that I belong to You.

O Lord, let there be no idols in my life. I want no other god but You, for You are the One True God. You are the only one who saves, the creator of heaven and earth. If there is anything in my life that needs to be removed, show me, Lord, and I will remove it. You are all I want.

Thank You Lord, for loving me, for shedding Your precious blood for me. May I always regard You with pure love, and never disdain Your sacrifice. It’s only by Your great love and mercy that I am even alive, Lord. I don’t want to ever take Your goodness and kindness too lightly.

I will worship and serve You for all of my days, Lord, in every way. And when I stumble, I welcome Your loving correction, thank You for teaching me Your ways, for placing my feet upon the Rock and steadying me, for teaching me how to walk. I love you, Jesus.

Amen.

God is not a man, you are teaching lies and corrupting the truth of God. Jesus is the Messiah, our Savior.

In Isaiah 44:6, the Bible says:

"Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts: 'I am the first and I am the last, And there is no God besides Me.

And in Revelation 1:17-18, John in his vision:

And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last: I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

"I am the First and the Last"

I believe you are sincere in your beliefs, sir, but so far I am not convinced by your arguments. I am trying to understand where you're coming from, and so once again I'll ask you a couple of questions. Do you reject the doctrine of the Trinity (I get the feeling you do)? How did you come to believe the things you believe?

You might feel I'm 'putting you on trial' again, but if you're going to comment on my post and make such an accusatory comment, you can expect I'm going to ask you questions about what you believe...and I expect you to be able to back up your claims with proof texts.

The Bible teaches against your pagan/christian religion.

I am he that liveth, and was dead

Did your god die? Jesus died. Did your god not have the keys of hell and death? Did he have to kill himself to acquire them?

You are getting stuck on the simple things. The first and the last is a title, it is not God's name. Just like Lord can be applied to multiple beings, so too can the title "the first and the last" within the context of its use.

"Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God."

Jesus sits at the right hand of God, not being god himself, as the author and finisher, the first and the last, of our faith. He was chosen by God from the beginning to be the end. He was chosen and he was anointed by God, not being god himself. He is the image of god, not god himself. He is the mediator between God and men, not being god himself. He is the high priest of God, not being god himself.

Jesus came to make God known to all, the true living God, the Father our Creator. These are not my arguments, these are the word of the Bible. You teach against the Bible and against the teachings of Jesus and his Apostles to hold on to a tradition that was forced upon the people by bloodshed.
