December 6, 2020January 3, 2022

The Lamb of God

The next day he saw Jesus coming toward him, and said, “Behold, the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world!
(John 1:29) ESV

All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
(Revelation 13:8) KJV

Why was the lamb slain from the foundation of the world? So that light could become darkness, good could become evil, the sinless could become sin, and we could have sentient life with free will.

Logos: Λόγος – a Word

And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
(Revelation 13:8) KJV

Jesus describes himself as alpha and omega. He meant that he was alpha and also omega at the same time. Jesus Christ is a combination of alpha with omega. The fusion of alpha with omega begot alpha and omega.

Origin of Gender

And He answered and said to them,“Have you not read that He who made them at the beginning ‘made them male and female,’ and said, ‘For this reason a man shall leave his father and mother and be joined to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh’?
(Matthew 19:4-5) NKJV

The Holy Trinity is the origin of gender. God refers to himself as male, Alpha, the Father. Jesus Christ, the begotten, is the Son. Simple deduction gives the gender of the Holy Spirit, Omega, to be female.

He Became Sin for Us

For He made Him who knew no sin to be sin for us, that we might become the righteousness of God in Him.
(2 Corinthians 5:21) NKJV

Christ had to become sin for us. This has a meaning which goes beyond the symbolism of Christ on the cross. It goes back to the nature of the matter of which the universe is made.

Slain From the Foundation of the World

And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
(Revelation 13:8) KJV

Jesus Christ, the Word of God, is also called the lamb that was slain [from] the foundation of the world, which we take to mean the lamb that was slain [at] the foundation of the world.

Foundation: καταβολῆς – katabolé

He then would have had to suffer often since the foundation of the world; but now, once at the end of the ages, He has appeared to put away sin by the sacrifice of Himself.
(Hebrews 9:26) NKJV

The “foundation-plan” typically relates to Christ’s incarnation, i.e. coming to Earth in the flesh to be our Redeemer. This divine plan was set and sealed (guaranteed) before creation.

Back to the Beginning

Hydroxyl (OH-) and Hydrogen (H+) form an unstable plasma called water.

In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
(Genesis 1:1) KJV

Some people believe that Genesis 1:1 is a subheading which bookmarks the beginning of creation, not as a creative act. However, some people believe that it was a separate creative act.

Conception: καταβολῆς – katabole

All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them: That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.
(Matthew 13:34-35) KJV

In Genesis 1:2 we have all three aspects of the Holy Trinity if you accept the premise that the deep, pure water, is God the Son who later lived as Jesus of Nazareth.

Slaying the Lamb

And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
(Revelation 13:8) KJV

We have thoroughly hammered our way through the idea that the water referred to as the deep in Genesis 1:2 is the Word of God.

The Foundation of the World

All who dwell on the earth will worship him, whose names have not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.
(Revelation 13:8) NKJV

There was an act of conception and the Son was begotten. This is referred to in the Greek phrase the foundation of the world. So, why was the lamb slain from the foundation of the world, his own birth?
