And immediately I was in the Spirit: and, behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat on the throne.\nAnd I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me,\nSaith the Spirit,\nThat they may rest from their labors: and their works do follow them.\nAnd I heard a great voice saying,\nBlessed is he that watcheth, and keepeth his garments, lest he walk naked, and they see his shame.\nAnd he saith unto me,\nAnd I, John, fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me,\nAnd he that sat upon the throne said,\nAnd he said unto me,\nHe that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son. But the fearful, and unbelieving, and the abominable, and murderers, and whoremongers, and sorcerers, and idolaters, and all liars, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.\nBehold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.\nAnd I, John, saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.\nThen saith he unto me,\nHe that is unjust, let him be unjust still: and he which is filthy, let him be filthy still: and he that is righteous, let him be righteous still: and he that is holy, let him be holy still.\nAnd, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give\nI am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, the first and the last.\nBlessed are they that do his commandments, that they may have right to the tree of life, and may enter in through the gates into the city. For without are dogs, and sorcerers, and whoremongers, and murderers, and idolaters, and whosoever loveth and maketh a lie.\nI Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.\nAnd the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.\nFor I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book. And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.\nHe which testifieth these things saith,\nEven so, come, Lord Jesus.\n The grace of our Lord Jesus Christ be with you all. Amen.\n\u00b6 The names on this sketch are to be deemed scarcely more than pointers to the places named in the text. The printing of the letters large enough to be readily legible on so small a map rendered precise placements impracticable.","title":"The Complete Sayings of Jesus: Appendix: Paul's Witness: CIII. \u201cI am Alpha and Omega\u201d","type":"page"}
