Jesus said in John 19:30 "it is finished" on the cross but in Revelation 21:6 the Lord God says "it is finished". My question is what is the work completed on the cross and what is the work completed in Revelation 21:6? How do they relate to each other if at all? Also, in Revelation 21:6 it is the Alpha & Omega and the Beginning & End that says "it is finished" but why is the First & Last not there? It seems that at this point in time the Lord God is only two instead of three because the First & Last is absent from the scene. What are your thoughts?
Well you asked for my thoughts....here we go😏😏😏😏
I've read over and over the before and after scriptures and it became very interesting to me on the things that would come to pass.
The first coming and the second coming and the differences in them.
Perhaps this will shed some light on the subject.
Jesus came as a lamb in his first coming, he comes as a lion in the second.
As we know the work of the father was to believe the son. Jesus fulfilled the law not for himself but for us who were dead in trespasses and sin. Opening the door to salvation to those who believe and ask.
From that point we walk by faith by the hearing of the word. Paul said Jesus is the author and finisher of our faith.
Now from what I am gleaning in rev 21 is that the lion made it possible that faith is not needed any more for God himself shall dwell with his people and as scripture says we shall see him as he truly is. Praise God.
All things become new opens up a new page in history which has not been written yet.
No need for faith, no need for Bible , no need for prayer,
Just thinking out loud....😀😀☺
