This tells us that God and Jesus is one in the same. Jesus is God in the human form. Jesus says He is the first and last, God says He is the beginning and the end, Alpha and Omega. God and Jesus cannot be seperated. Sometimes it is easy for me to think of Jesus as a kind of "pushover". He loves me so much that He died for me and He is always ready to forgive me. Instead of remembering that Jesus is God and should have the same amount of Holy fear from me.

Jesus is the model for us to be like. He has been there, done that; therefore is proof that we can endure. Jesus is the Way, the Truth and the Life. This encourages us to strive to be like HIM. This encourages us that in the end, Jesus wins and we either can be with Him or without Him. We are part of the Army, we don't choose to be part of it only what side we are on. Witnessing is more than just talking. Witnessing is showing the way. We are afraid because we want to be accepted not rejected by our human fellows. We are afraid because we know we are not perfect and if we witness then we are open to critisism of our sins. True Witnessing puts us in the minority bracket and we don't want to be made fun of. We want to be liked and have fun.

Hello, My name is Della and I live in Southwestern Michigan. I am a 39 year old married (21 years) mother of 5 children, 20,18,16, and 14 year old twins. I accepted Jesus as a very young child as I grew up in Assembly of God churches and when I was 19 years old I finally made Him Lord of my life. I am looking forward to learning and hopefully understanding the book of Revelations better with this study.
