Why Do You Believe Jesus is God?

[jfrog]

Revelations 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;

This verse speaks of the same person who said in Revelation 1:11

Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.

And who said in Revelation 1:18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.

This same one who is alpha and omega who lives and was dead also is called the beginning of the creation of God. How can you claim "the beginning of the creation of God is the almighty?" How can you say the created is the creator?

Coupled together with the fact that He is the Almighty, all this is very clear. God manifested in flesh while remaining God at the same time. But we said that dozens of times.
