Revelation 1:4-8 - Greetings To The Churches
4 JOHN to the seven churches which are in Asia: favour and peace be with you from him WHO IS, WHO WAS, WHO WILL BE; and from the seven spirits who are before his throne; 5 and from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, the first-born of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth: unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins by his own blood, 6 who hath made us kings and priests to his God and father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen.
7 See! he is coming on the clouds; and every eye shall see him, even they who pierced him: then all the tribes of the earth will smite their breasts at the sight: even so it will be.
8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the end, saith the Lord, who is, and who was, and who will be, the almighty.
