So the Amen HAS NOT spoken there?

When he says thus saith the Amen?

The Lord used that expression many times however it was not until He had rendered obedience unto death that the word was used as a title. And that was the scripture you used in Rev. 3: 14.

Isaiah 55:4 Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people. (John 8:18)

Rev 3:14 And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, 
the beginning of the creation of God;

Rev 19:11 And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, 
and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

`The faithful and true witness...` (Rev. 3: 14)

In His faithful witness our Lord did not trifle over transient things, but testified to eternal truth. He never pandered to the populace to gain popularity or praise. He never minimized nor falsified any reality, nor guessed at any time when giving an answer to a question.

In His message to mankind He unveiled the mysteries of God, revealed the treasure of truth, foretold the future of nations and disclosed the issues of life.

The witness He bore to visible and invisible alike was worthy of His incarnate Deity. His testimony to judgment and justification, to creation and consummation, to redemption and regeneration, to the Father`s purpose and the future prospects were wholly faithful and true.`

(Ref. C.J.Rolls)

God gave him to be head over the church in that very context he is speaking to the angels of the seven churches there

What is Jesus really like? HIs names reveal His true character. When we understand His love, compassion, and mercy, we will put our total trust in Jesus.

Let`s write one name or title and see how far we can go with exalting our Lord Jesus.

Just one at a time please so others can contribute. Later on we can each add another and so on with space to let others contribute.

 

Hi Marilyn,  And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you. 

Exodus 3:14

Love, Walter

Hi @itty-bitty lamb We were just thinking about Revelation 21.6 there in church very recently.

The Epistle to the Hebrews shows so clearly that in His name and titles and offices all the Lord Jesus is, is so much better - a keyword - than anything that went before or could ever be.
