Aleph Tau - Alpha Omega - Our New Beginning

Dear Father God, we are grateful that every one of

us has a beginning. But you don't want us to

ever end. You want us to be eternal algorithms, beings

that go on and on and on for all eternity,

with a God that never dies. Bless us as we

focus on what it means to be in Christ as

the Alpha and the Omega, the Aliph, and the Tau

are new beginning in Jesus' name. Amen, how many of

you like secrets? Now? There is a secret encoded in

the very first verse of the Bible that most Christians

read right over because they do not know Hebrew and

they miss the significance of that first verse. We're into

uncovering secrets. The Bible says, the secret things belong to God,

but the things that He has revealed belonged to us

and our children. Let's dig deep. This secret will be

affirmed by the great prophet Isaiah and the prophet On

in the book Relation, and Jesus himself in the last

chapter in the book Revelation. It is awesome. It has

everything to do with who Jesus is, who God is

in our lives. The first book of the Bible was

not written in English. Does anybody know what language? The

Torah was written in the Hebrew language exactly? Genesis one

one begins with God a beginning that God created, and

Chapter one introduces light and life at the dawn of time.

In fact, the Gospel of John starts by going back

to Genesis to show that Jesus is our new Genesis.

Creation in Genesis starts with God in the darkness like

the most holy place of the Hebrew sanctuary, and we

move out of the inner sanctum of God's presence in

the darkness to a world that he created out of chaos,

till finally there are beings on the dry land that

are His children, and we enter into a relationship with God.

Because God is not satisfied to live in eternal darkness,

He must shine as light to give life and light

and relationship. God is at the beginning, God is in

the middle, and God is at the end. We discover

God's relationship to time in this very verse. But more importantly,

God is with us. He's not just the God of

the past and the future. The most important quality of

God's character is that God lives right now with us

on the timeline of our life existence. So we can

know him. The God who is life and love is

more than just a friend. In Jenesis one to one,

and we often emphasize the fact that God is closed.

He's our friend. This is good, but friends, he has

to be more than that to meet our needs. God

is the beginning and God is the end. God is overall,

through all, and in all, or we can never have

a relationship with him. In the Hebrew language, God is

the Allah and the tao, the first and the last

letters of the Hebrew alphabet. In the Greek, God is

the alpha and the omega the first and last letters

of the Greek alphabet. We would say A and z,

which means God is the beginning and God is the

end and friends, God is in the middle. In Genesis

one to one, the Bible enters us, introduces us to

God and to time. Brace sheet Barrah elaheim atasha madam

behe beth aritz. I always butchered Sephardic pronunciation in seminary

because I'm a visual learner. The very first letter in

the Hebrew Bible is bait translated in and that letter

bait literally means house. Now wrap your head around us.

Before there was a was, before there was a beginning.

God was our house in the darkness of a vast eternative. Moses,

who wrote this very verses of an inspiration only spirit

in Psalm's nineties, says, thou, o, Lord, hast been our

dwelling place in all generations. God is our house. The

very first letter of the Hebrew Bible brings us to sanctuary.

It brings us to God. When you go to the

Book Revelation, it says they need no temple for the

Lord God Almighty in the Lamb are its temple. Now,

some people doubt the divinity of Christ. How can Christ

be the temple if he is not divine? You hear me,

He is the temple in the book Revelation, which means

He is divine, a divine being. You have been our

dwelling place in all generations. Friends, God was our beginning.

Paul says in Acts seventeen twenty eight that in Him

we move and live and have our being because God

is our house. The Book of Hebrews, in the second

verse of the first chapter. Early in the Epistles, the

Holy Spirit reveals that Christ made the eons, that He

is the expressed image of the Father, that the light

of God's glory emanates from the Father, and that light

that is eternally connected to God is Jesus Christ, and

he created the eons. The Greek word eon means time ages.

Einstein called this space time. The universe we live in

is a matrix of space and time as a single fabric.

Christ created space time. I once heard a theologian claim

that God is trapped in time and he has to be.

I mean, he got up there and he said, you know,

you know the council, and I see you. Those early

Christians didn't have a clue what they were talking about.

I've figured it out, you know, I've come along centuries later.

I believe that God cannot escape time. He has to

be in time, or else he couldn't be a loving God. Well,

that's an imposition, a superposition of his own philosophy onto

the nature of God. In its nonsense. Friends, God is

in time. Yes, that makes him Yahweh, a personal covenant

keeping God. But God is overall, through all, and in

all or. He is not the potentate of time. He's

not the pantecrator, as the book Revelation describes him, the

one who holds all things petecrator God must be powerful

as well as personal. God must be beyond us in

a sense for God to be with us. And it

matters if God is so imminent that God cannot be

powerful at the same time we miss we miss the

mix that heals us. You see, it's not just a

personal God who saves us. If God doesn't have the

power to give us a future, he can't save us.

So God must be awesome. Paul says in Hebrews one

three that Jesus created the eons of time space time.

What does that mean? That means before there was a

what there was Jesus before time can start ticking. Before

time is relevant. Christ was in the darkness of eternity

with his father God. They were one. Christ created space time.

That means there that we come to a savior who

has the beginning in the end wrapped up in his

nature in an awesome way. In John one one, Jesus

is the Word of God, who was God with God

in the beginning. In our ka hein Halla Goss in

the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,

and the Word was God. And Jesus is the Word

that was made flesh and dwelt among us. The Greek

says he tappernacled among us. He was the sanctuary of

God in human flesh. God with us Immanuel and Proverbs

Eightjesus was the wisdom of God who was poured out

as the light of God's presence that emanates from an

ancient eternity. The Bible says he danced before the presence

of the Lord. In the Hebrew language, he was daily

delighting before God in the presence of the sons of men,

always his delight to minister to the created order of

beings that are God's children. In Genesis one one, the

phrase translated in the beginning God is an awesome start

for the Bible, but paradoxically it can really be translated

in two ways. No one is sure which one of

these two ways is intended, unless both are somehow intended

in some kind of superposition of information in the brilliant

plan of God. Sometimes we don't have to pick between

two good ideas. We can embrace them both. In Genesis.

If Genesis one one is translated in the beginning God,

as we see in our most of our translations, then

the focus is on an absolute beginning God. He starts

the thing going, but Genesis one one can also be

translated as a temporal clause, meaning when God began to create.

In both cases, God is at the beginning, and God

is the creator of the heavens and the earth. So

you start with God, no matter how you'll interpret in

Jenesis one one. Now, in Jesus one one, we have

two subtle grammatical markers that appear as two Hebrew letters

together that suggest that God is greater than time. I mean,

many Christians have picked up on this, many Bible students.

I would like to draw your attention to those two

letters you see there on the screen, the oliph and

the taw. It's the direct object marker in the Hebrew language.

It occurs twice in verse one. It occurs in relationship

to the heavens. It occurs again in relationship to the earth.

Ali tau oli tao. The Hebrew direct object marker. Here

that we see, the letter all of is the first

letter in the Hebrew alphabet. So say it with me,

ol if all off. Now we're gonna talking about ollives

like the kind you eat. You got to get an

f sound at olif you got it, And that's the

that's like our a. It's the very first letter in

their alphabet. Now, the letter tao is the last last

letter in the Hebrew alphabet. Would you say it with me? Tao?

So olif tao. That's the direct object marker in the

Hebrew language. It gives the idea of transition from the

past to something concrete. It anchors it. It's not true.

In fact, this expression is not translated in any translations.

They'd leave it out because it's awkward. It simply points

to the object of the verb. The expression of olif

and tau in the Hebrew way of saying the beginning

and the end. You have it right there in Jenesis

one twice olive tau, all of tau. It would be

the equivalent of alpha and omega, the first and the

last in the book Revelation. Alpha is the first letter

of the Greek alphabet. Omega is the last letter of

the Greek alphabet. So they could express time as oliph

and tao, Alpha and omega. Now, why don't you help

me with that, olif tao. It's Hebrew alpha omega is

Greek beginning and end like A and Z in our alphabet.

The prophet Isaiah understood this and under the inspiration of

the Holy Spirit. He revealed to us that God the

Father and his son Jesus are both together, the beginning

and the end, that they are one, and that they

are separate, but as one Isaiah forty four to six.

That says the Lord, the King of Israel. And then

you see the word end. Everybody with me, and he

is reading. So two the Lord of hosts. Now look

at this. The King of Israel is called the Lord.

How is that spelled in the Bible? Help me with it?

Capital L, capital oh, capital R, capital D. Does that

anybody know what that means? When it's all capital letters

for Lord? It's the personal name for God. It's Yahweh

or Jehovah. This is the sacred name that God gave

at Sinai for who he is. Now notice that the

King of Israel is Jehovah Yahweh. But and his redeemer,

the Lord of Host. Now how is Lord's spell for

the redeemer capital L, capital oh, capital R, capital D.

What does that mean? You just said it Jehovah Yahweh.

So not just the King of Israel is Jehovah Yahweh.

Who else is Jehovahyahweh? The Lord of Host, who is

the Redeemer. Now on Mount Sinai. In Exdus twenty four,

God as Yahweh is speaking to Moses. He says, come

up to Yahweh on the mountain. He doesn't say, come

up to me. You see, the Father and the Son

as Yahweh, were at Mount Sinai when the ten Commandments

was spoken and brought to us. The Father and the

Son gave us the word of God. And Christ is

the word of God. Who is Yahweh God. This is

why John one one will say, in the beginning was

the Word, and the Word was with God, and the

Word was God. And in Genesis fifteen one amazing verse.

My revised Dianner version leaves out the verb, but it reads,

and the Word of the Lord came to Abram in

a vision, saying speaking the Word was alive. John says

in him was life, and the life was the light

of men. The life eight shines in the darkness, and

the darkness has not overcome it. So we have two

Yahwehs that are one, because how do we know that?

Look a look at the verse. Together. They say I

am the first and I am the last. They don't

say we, They say I am the first, and I

am the last. Besides me, there is no God. Now,

the ancient Jews understood this. The ancient Jewish rabbis at

the time of Christ understood correctly that there are two

great powers in heaven, the Father and the Son of

Man and Daniel seven, and that when Christ claimed to

be the son of Man, when he claimed divine progrenives,

they said, you make yourself equal to God and John five.

Because you're claiming to be the son of God. They

knew that if you were the son of God, you

were Yahweh God, his redeemer. That was understood ancient Judaism.

Now we live in a time where people think they're smart.

They come up with good ideas. They think about how

the Trinity is a crazy notion. Friends, it is incompatible

with verse six to believe that Jesus is anything less

than our redeemer, Who is Jehovah Yahweh God. Let me

ask you this question. Can you be saved by a

created being? Can God demonstrate his love to us by

giving a created being to die for us? Would that

really be a demonstration of his love. God commends his

love toward us in that he gave us God Paul

says God was in Christ reconciling the world and too

himself in the love triangle, the holy bond of the Godhead,

the three heavenly worthies, as the Spirit of Prophecy calls them,

and other things. They were knitted together in the nature,

whereby they would say, I am the first and I

am the last, not we. And that's why Jesus said,

I and the Father are one. So don't ever let

anybody rip Christ away from the unity of God the Father,

and thereby destroy your relationship with Jesus as God who

can save you from your sins. Now Here, God is

both the God of our certain past and the God

of our uncertain future. I am the first and the last.

Besides me, there is no God. God spans the ages

into a good tomorrow and a welcome eternity in which

the Spirit and the bride say, come and taste the

word water of eternity that is sweet with God. Now,

Jesus says, I am the Way, the Truth, and the Life.

You remember that now the Hebrew word for truth is emmit,

not aunt emma, but emmit. Won't you say it with me?

Emmitt e me e t emmit. Now the First, the

very first Hebrew consonant which makes up that word is

the Oliph, like the Alpha, the beginning letter of the

Hebrew alphabet. The very life last letter of truth is Tao.

So that's aleph Thal like Alpha and Omega the beginning

to the end. But we have a letter in the

middle which is a men, and the men in the

middle means water. Now what does the water represent in

the Bible? Holy Spirit. So don't leave the Holy Spirit

out of the truth. Paul calls him the Spirit of Truth.

Samwiched between Alpha and Omega alephant Tau is the Holy Spirit.

The Holy Spirit flows from Christ. The Holy Spirit is

glued to the Godhead, the unseen person of the Godhead,

whereby we cannot see his personality, but we feel his

presence is just as much God as the other two.

And so we see the mystery of these things so

beautifully wrapped in this. In this dark age of old

sin and suffering, we're often afraid of the future. We

can grasp, but there's a beginning, But what is it

going to be like at the end? Will I survive?

Will I survive death? Will I have a future? Fear

sets in why because we don't see what God sees.

But God sees the end from the beginning. God is

the Aleph and the towel, the beginning and the end,

the Alpha and the Omega. Our new beginning is God,

because God was our first beginning. Verse eight, God says, actually,

let me read verse seven, who is like me? Let

him proclaim it, Let him declare and set it forth

before me? Who is announce from of old the things

to come? Let them tell us what it? Yet it

is to be? Because God lives in the future. He

is the God of the living in the future, Jesus

told those secular Sadducees. Because God has the grasp on

the future, he can help us in our todays to

get there. Friends, you don't have to know your future.

You don't have to figure out your life plan. You

just have to walk with God and you're gonna be

all right. See who's like me? Now Go to verse

fear not nor be afraid now, Jesus would say this often.

Don't be afraid? Have I not told you from of

old and declared it? And you are my witnesses? Is

there a God besides me? There is no rock I

know not any now, Dear heart. I don't know about you,

but I strivele I strive for stability in my life.

I want to make sure my life works and it

doesn't come on glued. Are you in that camp? I

don't like it when forces attack me, try to rip

things out from under my feet, produce instability. But God

is saying, look, you don't know the future. I know

the future. I am the oleph and the towel, the

beginning of the end, the aphin the omega. I got

it figured out for you. I am there and a

good future for you. If you don't let go of me,

I will get you there. That's what he's saying. I

am the rock stable. God has evil and leash. God

has fire reserved for the devil and his angels. God

is a heaven for you in Christ. God controls space, time,

He controls the fabric of eternity. And God is alive

in the future, drawing us to him and a good

future with him, a future we cannot see without his help.

You remember that Sadducees who thought they would trip up Jesus.

They didn't believe in angels, they didn't believe in a

future resurrection, they didn't believe in the Bible except the

five Books of Moses. They were secular, progressive helen Us

who had abandoned the authority the word of God. And

they thought they trapped Jesus. They said, by the way,

you know the leveret law Moses gave us that if

a man marries and he dies, the next of kin

can marry the wife. And so she had seven husbands

legally in the law of Moses. After the death. In

the resurrection, who will she be married to? You? Remember

that question? Now? Christ here Christ in her acts with that.

He says, you know, you guys, really aren't that smart.

He says, you air and that you do not know

the scriptures or the power of God. And he said,

he says this. He says, in the Resurrection, they neither

give nor take in marriage. They are in the Greek

hissy Onngolai, like an Asosceles triangle, equal to the angels

the crisis, saying, in the Resurrection we become part of

the Divine council. In Psalms eighty two, we become part

of the inner circle of the angelic brethren. We are

uploaded in a more magnificent way than we have experienced

here but then he says, this, have you never read

the text of the bush well, the burning bush back

in Moses the Torah. Of course they prided themselves in

being Torah experts, law of Moses experts. He says, where

God said to Moses, it's in It's in Exodus three.

I am the gods of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and

Jesus said this God is not the God is dead,

but of the living. Now, Jesus wasn't saying they were

alive at that point in time. Jesus is saying that

God is in the future. And because God is in

the future, they are alive to him. And that's what

he said. They are alive to him. See, when someone dies,

they don't die and go straight to Heaven. They die

and go to the future resurrection. But guess who's the tall,

Guess who's the omega? Guess who's in our future? God

is there. He's not trapped by time that he has created.

He knows that Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob are alive in

the future because it is a reality to him. A friend,

I don't want to get too deep into theology. I'm

not into theology. I mean the Bible exo Jesus. But

there's really no difference between absolute foreknowledge and being in

the future indistinguishable. The two are the same. God controls

time and space. Before there was it was, there was

God and Christ created time and space. Friends, God is

alive in the future, drawing us to him a good future,

a future we cannot see without his help. In the

Book of Revelation, God the Father quotes Isaiah forty four

to six, and he applies this verse directly to himself

as the alph in the Omega Revelation one eight. This

right here is God the Father. I am, though what

what does it say? I am the Alpha? And the

Omega says the Lord who is and who was, who

is to come, the Almighty the Pentecrator. I hold everything

in my hands. That's what the word almighty is. In

Greek turn A Revelation twenty one five to seven, the

Father is speaking, and he who set upon the throne said, behold,

I make all things new. And he said, write this,

for these words are trustworthy and true. I mean, don't

let people tell you your Bible's nonsense so you can't

trust it. In the Book Revelation, God said, as these

words are trustworthy, and true. Verse six, He said to me,

it is done. I am the Alpha and the Omega,

the beginning in the end to the thirsty. I will

give from the fountain of the water of life without payment.

He who conquers shall have this heritage, and I will

be as God, and he shall be my son. How

many of you liked that kind of a future. You're

looking forward to having a relations of God sitting with

God on his throne, as it says in Revelation three,

right where Christ died, will be where the throne of

God is planet. I can prove that from the Bible

that will be the center of the universe. The river

of life will flow from it, just like water flowed

from Jesus' side on Calbary's cross. And there God the

Father will be our father, and he'll wrap his eternal

arms around us and will learn the old old story

of how he got us into eternity through the gift

of Jesus. Trans God the Father is a personal, powerful

God who is our father if we choose his name,

his law, his character in the acceptance of Jesus Christ.

But God the Father is not the only one who

is the Alpha and the Omega. Don't think for a

minute he's the only one. We have a redeemer. How

mean of you're grateful. We have a redeemer. We have

a redeemer who is God Almighty. Also who is the

Alpha and the Omega, the Aleph and the Tau, the

beginning of the end. Jesus himself speaks in Revelation twenty

two twelve to fourteen, because Jesus is equal to God

as God, I and the Father are one. Revelation twenty

two twelve. Behold, I am coming soon. Now who's speaking there?

It's obvious. Second coming, Who's coming? Jesus comes. Behold, I'm

coming soon, bringing my recompense to repay everyone for what

he has done. Next verse, I am the Alpha and

the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning of

the end. That's Christ speaking, So don't let anyone tell

you he's anything less than Yahweh God, the beginning of

the end, the alph and the Mega, the Oliph and

the towel God, the Father, God, the Son, tied to

the hip from all eternity in the love dance that

is deedy that we cannot grasp. But it is true.

Christ is God, and friends, it's not a created being

hanging on the cross atoning for our sins. It is

God in Christ atoning for our sins. Now, what kind

of future do we have? Blessed are those who washed

the robes? Boy, I want to wash my robe. I

was up to three am last night. I have to

confess it. You have a night where you just can't

go to sleep. Not on we have one hon of

soul over there. The rest of it, you have a

couple more. And you ever feel like you just need

to get things right with God and pour it up

to him. And oh, I took till three am to

do that last night. So Lord, I decided and since

I couldn't sleep, I would translate second Chronicles in the Hebrew.

I got like four or five chapters translated as I

was praying, and it was just really good stuff for me. Now, look,

we have to wash our robes in the blood of

the Lamb. To get there, we have to have Jesus

the gospel. But look at the outcome. Blessed, which means

happy are those who wash the robes. Now this translation,

that's the oldest Greek reading. It can also be translated

based on the majority text. Blessed are those who keep

the commandments. Both are true. You don't have to pick

between which translation is the best. They both are good.

They may have right to the Tree of life, and

they may enter the city by the gates. Revelation twenty

two fourteen. I want to go in the front door.

You want to go in the front door. You don't

get in the front door without washing your robe, without

Jesus Christ in your life. When Christ died on the cross, friends,

Christ became the God forsaken God in atonement for our sins.

My God, my God. Who was he talking to, not

just the Father my God, the Father, my God, the

Holy Spirit? Why have yous either one forsaken me? I

am broken from you? In atonement, the God of eternity

lost his son in time to save us for an

eternity we could never have without him. Time was cracked

at Calvary, God was wounded in time that God had

was ripped to pieces in the atonement of our sins,

as God's hatred of sin was in an awful conflict

with his love for Christ, and Christ was offered up

in the eternal Spirit accurd Hebrews nine. The Trinity was

being ripped to shreds as they dealt with every sin,

every evil we've ever committed as gods, in a way

we will never understand. The Alpha and the omega was

ripped apart, revealing the glory that is inside the wound

of God. In time, the prophet says, from his hands

the light was seen the glory. The Hebrew letter Oliph

was written to look like an ox olif tao. Now

what do you mean think of an ox? What is

it symbolized to you? Help me? U ox represents strength

and the Look at the towel and proto synactic script,

what does it look like? The ox and the cross?

The strength of God that got him through Gassemite Calvary

to the cross, the beginning and the end. The strength

of God created the universe. The Cross of Christ saved

the universe. Oliph tow and yet his end is our beginning.

The tow is the cross. Jesus understood the truth of

Oliph and the towel that is the cross, at the

very end of his suffering on the c as darkness

lifted from the cross, he saw at last that God

will make all things new. Somehow, this evil experience of

sin and suffering will one day end because the towel

that is the cross has brought all things back. At

the cross, the divine nature that is inside of Jesus

absorbed all our sins and suffering, and it was funneled

through his human nature. God ended sin in Jesus on

the cross the towel, and it all bled out inside

of him in atonement for us. Don't let anyone ever

convince you that Christ did not need to die for

our sins. That awful idea will set people up to

stand before God without a robe of righteousness in the

judgment day. I don't know about you. My sins are awful.

Are you in that camp? Are you okay? He died

for my awful sins had to happen. Paul says that

Christ died for our sins in accordance to the scriptures.

He was buried, he was raised, he says in Romans

four twenty five, for our justification, our acceptance. When God

created the world the dawn of time, Moses records that

he finished his work and he rested. On the seventh Day.

Adam and Eve were at home in Eden for the

first time in the beginning on the seventh day, with

God's the Covenant Day, the word seven. He remains oath,

the oath covenant day. And when Jesus died on the

cross is the second atom. Jesus was more than Adam

could ever hope to be. Christ died as the creator

of space time, and he cried out, it is finished,

so we could have a future in which the past

of our failed sins is far behind, and the tale

that is the end is earned and owned. And we

have an attorney because of the cross, the Cross of Christ.

You know, Ezekiel nine, the writer's incorn. As they're trying

to put a mark on the forehead of those who

will be saved from destruction, like the mark of the beast.

It's the towel, the symbol of the cross that goes

on the forehead. Friend is the Oliph, and the towel,

the alpha and the omega, the ox and the cross.

Jesus took the dawn of time all the power of God.

He dragged it down to the end of time, and

he wrapped them all in his heart, in time, in love,

in atonement, as he stretched out his hands to embrace humanity,

and he said, it is finished. The towel, it is finished. Omega,

you don't have to earn heaven. I have bought heaven

for you. I have a tone for every sin from

Adam to the end. I have finished the work Father,

that you have given me to do. Hebrews says he

sat down at the right hand of God because he

got it done. Friends, when Jesus bowed his head and

died on the towel that is the cross, we were

home and Eden again. Dear heart, Jesus is the Oliph,

and the towel the Alpha and the Omega our new beginning.

Thank God for the towel that is the cross.
