From Revelations 21:4 we read And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.
5. And he that sat upon the throne said, Behold, I make all things new. And he said unto me, Write: for these words are true and faithful.
6. And he said unto me, It is done. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end. I will give unto him that is athirst of the fountain of the water of life freely.
7. He that overcometh shall inherit all things; and I will be his God, and he shall be my son.
Can all these be true?
Before we answer the above question let us first ask ourselves one simple question. Can it be that the above words spoken by God himself could be true?
To validate the above words we need to look at the following.
Who spoke these words
The promise above was made by non other but Jesus Christ. Prince of all of heaven and the Son of God. In John 1:1~3 we learn that he is God's spoke man and in Genesis 1:26 Christ is hinted along side God in the design and creation of man. And again in the four Gospels he is shown as not only God's only Son but a faithful one at that.
In a number of passages Christ is shown as Jehovah's champion warrior and principal defender. The book of Jude and that of Daniel show him carrying out his fathers will down to the letter.
Unlike most man Christ proved himself loyal even to his own death. The Gospels show in detail his power. The very power he chose not to use even when his life was being taken from him. .Not many of us and maybe even angels would use that much restrain.
Why then would you not believe the promise as uttered by Christ. Such a faithful person?
Be heartened. Christ made the promise at Revelation 21:4 on Jehovah's behalf. It shall surely come to pass.
Praise Jehovah.
