I Am: Alpha

When Jesus says "I am the Alpha," He is referring to His divine nature and supreme position in all of creation.

Alpha, being the first letter of the Greek alphabet, symbolizes that Jesus is the beginning, the source, and origin of all things.

This title emphasizes His eternal nature, existing before all creation and spanning all time.

It also signifies that Jesus is the complete Word of God, summing up everything God has to say.

This title also suggests that Christ is the best, surpassing all others in His attributes and roles, such as Son, Prophet, Priest, and King.

Jesus' claim to be Alpha is a declaration of His deity, echoing God's words in the Old Testament about being the first and the last

In the Old Testament, God refers to Himself as "the first and the last" in the book of Isaiah.

This title appears three times in Isaiah (41:4, 44:6, and 48:12), where God declares "I am the first and I am the last".

This unique title for God in the Old Testament emphasizes His eternal nature and sovereignty.

The phrase had particular significance for Israel during their Babylonian captivity, serving as a reminder of God's faithfulness to His covenant despite their punishment.
