Podcasts about Alpha and Omega

Scripture Reading: Revelation 1:1-8 From the first line in the book of Revelation, John exalts Christ.  Then, in the first chapter, he describes Christ in majestic terms. Christ is the "faithful witness" … the "firstborn from the dead" … the "ruler of the kings on earth" (Rev 1:5).  Christ loves us and has freed us from our sins and made us a kingdom of priests.  This prompts John's heart and pen to surge into a doxology … "to him be glory and dominion forever and ever.  Amen" (Rev 1:5). The words "I am the Alpha and the Omega" in Revelation 1:8 are words from God the Father.  But those same words are echoed by Christ in Revelation 22:13.  To say that Christ is the ruler of kings on earth is to declare His sovereignty, by which He governs everything that rulers do.  "Kingship belongs to the LORD, and he rules over the nations" (Psa 22:27).  "The heart of the king is in the hand of the LORD . . . he turns it wherever he will" (Prov 21:1).  "Many are the plans in the mind of a man, but it is the purpose of the LORD that will stand" (Prov 19:21). To say that Christ is the Alpha and the Omega is to declare His eternality and self-existence.  Our response before Christ should be reverential fear and ecstatic delight and thankful adoration.  "There is none like you, O LORD; you are great, and your name is great in might. Who would not fear you, O King of the nations? For this is your due" (Jer 10:6-7).

Welcome to Gank That Drank, where hosts Krissy Lenz and Nate dive into Supernatural episodes with custom drinking games! This week, they tackle Season 11's finale, "Alpha and Omega," where the stakes couldn't be higher as God (Chuck) is dying, and the world faces imminent destruction.The episode picks up right where the previous one left off: Amara has defeated everyone, Chuck is dying on the floor, and the sun is literally fading away. Our hosts break down how the team scrambles to find a solution by collecting souls to build a bomb powerful enough to destroy Amara, leading Dean to make what appears to be the ultimate sacrifice.Krissy and Nate discuss the emotional farewells as Dean prepares to be the delivery system for this cosmic bomb, highlighting the touching moment when he hands over the Impala keys to Sam. But in classic Supernatural fashion, the plan goes sideways when Amara instantly detects the bomb. Instead of destruction, the episode culminates in reconciliation between Chuck and Amara, with a shocking final scene revealing Mary Winchester's return.Episode HighlightsThe drinking game rules included drinking for "milady" mentions, soul references, and Ghostbusters jokesIntroduction of Lady Toni Bevell and the British Men of Letters storylineChuck and Rowena's amusing parent-like tea conversationDean and Castiel's heartfelt "you're our brother" momentBillie the Reaper's cool entrance and soul collectionThe emotional "no chick flick moments" exchange between Sam and DeanThe cliffhanger ending with Mary Winchester's return and Sam facing Lady BevellOur hosts rate this finale as "fine but not spectacular," noting it lacks the emotional punch of previous season finales and relies too heavily on plans that repeatedly fail. They also speculate whether Chuck was manipulating everyone all along, adding another layer to the cosmic drama.Join Krissy and Nate next episode as they travel back to Season 7 for "Shut Up, Dr. Phil"—and don't forget to catch their live improv shows at the Neighborhood Comedy Theater in downtown Mesa, Arizona! ---Learn more about supporting this podcast by becoming a member.

Many churches only teach about salvation and going to heaven, but that leaves us ill-prepared for the battle we face here on earth. God is training us in the same way parents train their children to prepare them for life. If we listen, we will realize God is preparing us for what we will face next. He is giving us the power to overcome the battles against the enemy. God is preparing us to overcome in the end days.

“Alpha and Omega” is of my favorite titles of Jesus Christ.  I think we tend to think of this one with an eternal feel to it, and rightfully so.  But what if we looked at it with a more DAILY mindset?If you'd like to view the video that goes with podcast, click here

We focus our attention on Christ as "Alpha and Omega" once again this week on "Encounter God's Truth"—also applying that reality in ways that will help us serve Him in these distressing times.Host Wayne Shepherd guides us in listening to portions of three different presentations by Dr. John Whitcomb. Together, they offer a brilliant demonstration of the fact that God's Word is true from the beginning to the end.First, we consider the outworking of our faith in Christ as "Alpha and Omega" by studying the strategy offered in 2 Timothy 2, by which we endeavor to teach the entirety of Scripture to the whole world.Next, we hear questions posed to Dr. Whitcomb on both creationism and prophecy, followed by an exhortation that will motivate us to serve the Lord at this crucial hour.With thanks to Victory Baptist Church in Whiteland, Ind., and Prairie Baptist Church in Noblesville, Ind., for portions of this audio, we offer this broadcast with prayers that many will hear and share its gospel message.

Author and Biblical scholar Dr. John Whitcomb offered words of hope and anticipation to help us press forward during spiritually challenging times in this message, which focuses on Christ as "Alpha and Omega."With assistance from host Wayne Shepherd, Dr. Whitcomb drew from the broad sweep of Scripture in this message—giving Biblical reasons to persevere in our service to the Lord until the day of His return. Dr. Whitcomb went all the way back to creation to establish this theme.This program truly embodies our mission on "Encounter God's Truth," which is to declare that God's Word is true from the beginning to the end! In fact, Dr. Whitcomb encouraged us to be faithful to take all 66 books of the Bible seriously.We trust that this broadcast—the first half of a short series—will be a great blessing to you.

Our finite lives make sense as they are stretched out in the beginning and end that is Christ.

Choices and Consequences, the Alpha and Omega; The Cause and effect! Do you ever wonder how we got to where we are in our country today? The pandemic of poor mental health. 40-60% of college graduates are not prepared for the workforce. People can’t eat with someone who votes differently. People killing and maiming unknown people just to hurt people. Americans are having fewer kids, if they have any at all. Men are struggling starting families, getting homes and choosing to just checking out. 60% of our population has chronic disease, where 50 years ago it was 6%. It is time to go back to the basics. We can fix this dilemma by remembering how things work, and what is important. The Law of Causality and the Chain of Causation is science. If you plant wheat, the only thing that will grow- if anything grows, is wheat! From our choices come consequences. The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting different results. Today’s listeners will be reminded of everything they needed to know they learned in kindergarten and be introduced to “Wrong Way Riegels”. The time is NOW to be inspired to choose differently!

Audio for: "The Alpha And Omega", part of the series "His Face Was Like The Sun". Sermon given by Andy Lewis, December 22, 2024, at Faith Community Church in Santa Cruz, CA. Visit us online at www.santacruzfaith.org/ and on Sunday Mornings @ Santa Cruz Church of the Nazarene at 9 am.

In this sermon by Chris Romig, the dual meaning of Advent is explored, focusing on both the first and second comings of Jesus. Chris delves into Revelation 1:7-8, emphasizing the foundational importance of this chapter. Verse 7, which describes Jesus' return with the clouds, is highlighted to signify that every eye will witness His second coming. Chris stresses the term "behold," calling for attention to Jesus' climactic return and references both the Old and New Testament where clouds symbolize God's presence. He likens this to General MacArthur's WWII return to provide a relatable historical context. Advent, as Chris explains, is a time not just for reflecting on Jesus' birth but also for anticipating His return. He emphasizes the importance of recognizing both Jesus' first coming as a suffering servant and His second coming as a triumphant king. Chris recounts meeting two elderly church members, including a WWII veteran, to draw parallels to Jesus' return. He discusses the groups mentioned in Revelation 1:7 – those who pierced Jesus and the tribes of the earth – relating them to various modern-day audiences who have rejected God. He also underscores the significance of Christians praying for Israel, highlighting God's enduring covenants with them. The sermon touches on high Christological themes in Revelation, affirming Jesus' dual nature as fully God and eternally existent, embodied in the Alpha and Omega statement.
