Alpha and Omega Lyrics Words and Music by Robbie Trice Arranged by Camp Kirkland I heard a great voice out of Heaven saying, “Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men. He shall swell within them; they shall be His people And Almighty God will be with them. He shall wipe away all tears from their eyes, There shall be no more death, Neither sorrow nor crying and no more pain. The former things are all passed away.” He that sat upon the throne said, “Behold, I make all things new.” He said unto me, “Write these words, for they are faithful and true.” And it is done, it is done, It is done, it is done. He is the Alpha and Omega, The Beginning and the End, The Son of God, King of kings, Lord of lords, He’s everything, Messiah, Jehovah, the Prince of Peace is He.

Orthodox Brethren
ORTHODOX BRETHREN "Let God see and judge!" The shout resounded in the ears of the dumb founded congregation as it watched him shake the dust from his feet and leave the church. The man who uttered this cry was Humbert of Mourmon tiers, the Cardinal Bishop of Silva Candida. It was Saturday, July 16, 1054. The Cardinal had just excommunicated Michael Cerularius, the Patriarch of Constantinople in the Church of Holy Wisdom. In the opinion of many historians this event put the seal on the separation of the Eastern Church from the Church of the West. The Orthodox Church-A General Description By the words "Eastern Church" we do not mean to create the impres sion that the Orthodox or Eastern church is a single unified church corre sponding to the Western Church ruled and guided by Pope Paul VI. Nor are we speaking of those heretical churches of the East, the Nestorians and the Monophysites. These churches had been separated from Rome long before the Cardinal of Silva Candida shook the dust from his feet in the Church of Holy Wisdom. Again, our attention is not focused on the Catho lic Churches of the Eastern Rite, which are united in faith and morals with the Church of Rome and are in communion with her. We are interested in the Orthodox Churches. These churches are in union with one another, al though separated from Rome. There are approximately eighteen of these autocephalous (self-governing) churches which are united in a federation. And it is this federation which often receives the name Eastern Church or Orthodox Church.

Netscape: JESUS: the ALPHA and OMEGA
JESUS: THE ALPHA AND OMEGA SERIES: JESUS: LORD OF HIS CHURCH by Ron Ritchie We who live and work in the modern industrial nations are becoming more and more familiar with the terms "evaluation," "down-sizing," and "change." As commercial markets become more competitive, doing business the old-fashioned way, while it sounds wonderful, is not very profitable. With the Cold War over, our government has been forced to take a hard look at our military forces, and we have watched it evaluate, down-size, and change. Then on a more personal note, now that summer has arrived, many of us find ourselves standing before a full-length mirror dressed in last year's swim wear thinking, "It's time to evaluate, down-size, and change!" But the concept of evaluation is not new for Christians. Since the church first began on the Day of Pentecost (33 AD), our risen Lord Jesus has been evaluating the body of believers with words of encouragement, correction, and comfort in every generation up to this present moment. This spiritual evaluation will continue until our glorified Lord Jesus comes again as the bridegroom to take his bride to himself "...in all her glory, having no spot or wrinkle or any such thing, but...holy and blameless" (Ephesians 5:27). To encourage your hearts, we want you to know that our Lord Jesus is currently evaluating this church, the elders, and the staff by his Spirit and his word. Two years ago the elders began to study together our Lord's evaluation of the seven churches of Revelation.

Chrismon Booklet | East Liberty Presbyterian Church
CHRISMONS East Liberty Presbyterian Church 116 South Highland Avenue Pittsburgh, PA 15206-3985 CHRISMONS The word “Chrismon” is a combination of the words “Christ” and “monogram”. The word Chrismon has been adopted to refer to special Christmas tree ornaments that have been developed to display symbols of Christ. The designs of the Chrismons has over the years been extended to represent symbols of Christianity. All the ornaments are done in white and gold. In 1957 Chrismon ornaments were made and displayed on a Christmas tree at the Lutheran Church of the Ascension in Danville, Virginia. Through this church patterns were made available, and the idea of having a Chrismon tree has spread. Over the years more ornaments have been developed so that now a Chrismon may be a monogram, a sign, a symbol, a type, or a combination of such figures. The only requirement is that it refer primarily to Christ and God. The Eight Pointed Star symbolizes regeneration through Baptism. The Triquetra and Circle. The endless circle suggests eternity. The triquetra—the figure composed of three separate and equal arcs— symbolizes the One God who showed himself to man in three separate and distinct persons. Christogram with Cross, Cho Rho, Triangle and M. The Chi Rho, Cross and Triangle are familiar sym- bols of Christ and the Trinity, M is the monogram for his mother, Mary, which suggests His humanity. The Fleur-De-Lis is the conventionalized form of the lily, the flower of the virgin Mary, and the symbol of the annunciation of Jesus. The Five-Pointed Star is the great symbol of the Epiphany; the star that led the three wise men to the nativity.

I Am the Alpha and the Omega
THE ‘I AMS’ OF JESUS Part 9 I AM THE ALPHA AND THE OMEGA Based on the book: “The Great I Am’s of Jesus.” By Anthony Coniaris, Light and Life Publications In the last book of the Bible, the Book of the Apocalypse, we get the phrase, “I am the Alpha and the Omega... he who is and he who was and he who is to come, he who holds everything.” (Revelation 1:8) Ἐγώ εἰμι τὸ Ἄλφα καὶ τὸ Ὦ, λέγει κύριος, ὁ θεός, ὁ ὢν καὶ ὁ ἦν καὶ ὁ ἐρχόμενος, ὁ παντοκράτωρ. Past, present, future... eternity, everything. The first letter of the Greek alphabet is Alpha and the last letter is Omega. It is like saying in English... the A and the Z. The Greek alphabet has twenty-four letters and the Latin alphabet has twenty-six letters, other alphabets have thirty or so. In any case with these thirty or so letters, we can create millions of words in all sorts of languages. The phrase Alpha and Omega is used three times in the Book of the Apocalypse. (Rev. 1:8; 21:6; 22:13) The first two times it is used to describe God. The third time it is applied directly to Jesus. “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.” (Rev. 22:13) ἐγὼ τὸ Ἄλφα καὶ τὸ Ὦ, ὁ πρῶτος καὶ ὁ ἔσχατος, ἡ ἀρχὴ καὶ τὸ τέλος. Both among the Jews and the Greeks, “the beginning and the end” was a title for God.

REFLECTIONS from REVELATION: Episode 4: Alpha and Omega | Rev 1:8 (John Macarthur)
REFLECTIONS FROM REVELATION: Episode 4: Alpha and Omega | Rev 1:8 (John MacArthur) “In a very real sense, scripture ends where it began. What was interrupted in Genesis 3 is renewed and completed in Revelation 19-22.” John MacArthur Alpha and Omega: Rev 1:8, “I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.” “In describing his eternal nature, God declares that he is the Alpha and Omega. That is the Greek for A and Z— The first and the last letters of the Greek alphabet. God is the totality. He is the beginning and the ending. It all started with God and it all ends with God. He is, he was, he is to come. He is eternal.” - Chuck Smith “This phrase of Alpha and Omega is used of both God the Father and God the Son (Rev 1:8; 21:6; 22:13).” “God in Christ comprises everything, all that goes between the Alpha and the Omega, as well as the beginning, the first and the last. This expresses God’s fullness, comprehensiveness, and all-inclusiveness. He is the source of all things and will bring all things to their pointed end.” John MacArthur • Revelation shows us the end of the age, God’s conclusion • God is not only the beginning (Alpha) but the Omega and finisher of all things • Beautiful doctrines come into place throughout the book of Revelation as He fulfills His word and prophecy John MacArthur extols Revelation as one of the greatest books ever written, as illustrated by these features: • Hope.

(Ch. 1:8). the Alpha and Omega of Scripture.--[Revelation 22:13-17 Quoted.] Here We Have the Alpha of Genesis and the Omega of Revelation
The True ALPHA and OMEGA 13-17 (ch. 1:8). The Alpha and Omega of Scripture.--[Revelation 22:13-17 quoted.] Here we have the Alpha of Genesis and the Omega of Revelation. The blessing is promised to all those who keep the commandments of God, and who cooperate with Him in the proclamation of the third angel's message (RH June 8, 1897). {7BC 990.2} Our watchword is to be: "To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them." Isaiah 8:20. We have a Bible full of the most precious truth. It contains the alpha and omega of knowledge. The Scriptures, given by inspiration of God, are "profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: that the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works." 2 Timothy 3:16, 17. Take the Bible as your study book. All can understand its instruction. {8T 299.2} It is essential that we study our Bibles more diligently, that we become more choice in our conversation, for this can be an influence for good. We need to see and sense the inefficiency of human accomplishments, our own impotence, and the dignity and glory of Christ Jesus. The Lord puts us under the guidance of the Holy Spirit, if we will walk humbly, trustingly, confidingly in Him. He leads us into all truth. The Holy Spirit takes the things of God as they fell from the lips of Christ and conveys them with living power to the obedient heart.

Commandeering a Symbol of God: Reevaluating the Use of the Chi-Rho in Roman Britain
Commandeering a Symbol of God: Reevaluating the Use of the Chi-Rho in Roman Britain as a Sign of Imperial Authority By Briar Bennett-Flammer A Major Research Project submitted to the Graduate Program in Classical Studies and Archaeology in conformity with the requirements for the Degree of Master of Arts Queen’s University Kingston, Ontario, Canada Final (QSpace) submission August, 2020 Copyright © Briar Bennett-Flammer, 2020 Abstract The Chi-Rho (☧), or Christian monogram, is one of the most common religious symbols in Christian art. Traditional archaeology has considered the presence of a chi-rho to be an indicator of a Christian artifact, as a result of a long-standing association with the figure of Christ. As a result, artefacts adorned with the chi-rho have been consistently used as evidence for Christian activity in Roman Britain. An association with imperial figures, however, has created a need to question the validity of these assumptions in certain contexts. After his “Divine Revelation” Emperor Constantine adopted the chi-rho as his personal sign of military triumph and political authority, giving the symbol dual functions representing both religion and imperial power. In Britain, Constantine’s many personal and military connections may have increased the chi-rho’s imperial role. The symbol appears in the province as architectural decoration, graffiti, and on objects as original ornamentation. When this material evidence is reevaluated with consideration for function, context, potential as a religious and/or secular artefact, and the purpose of the chi-rho as part of the objects’ decoration, the Romano-British chi-rho is demonstrated to be a symbol with an ambivalent nature.
