I appreciate that you already have a lot of questions to get to, nicanica, but I would like to ask four questions that are closely related.
Question 1:
Revelation 1:8 says:
"I am the Alpha and the Omega," says Jehovah God, "the one who is, and who was, and who is coming, the Almighty."
The one title, ‘The Alpha and the Omega’, refers to Jehovah God, correct?
Question 2:
Revelation 21:6-7 says:
"And he said to me, ‘They have come to pass! I am the Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end. To anyone thirsting I will give from the fountain of the water of life free. Anyone conquering will inherit these things, and I shall be his God and he will be my son."
The two titles, 'The Alpha and the Omega, the beginning and the end’, refer to Jehovah God, correct?
Question 3:
Revelation 22:12-13 says:
“Look! I am coming quickly, and the reward I give is with me, to render to each one as his work is. I am the Alpha and the Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end."
The three titles, ‘the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the beginning and the end’ refer to Jehovah God, correct?
Question 4:
Revelation 1:17-18 says:
"And he laid his right hand upon me and said: ‘Do not be fearful. I am the First and the Last, and the living one; and I became dead, but, look! I am living forever and ever, and I have the keys of Death and of Hades.”
If “the First and the Last” referred to Jehovah God in the verses above and this passage says that ‘the First and the last’ became dead”, my final question is:
"When did Jehovah God die?"
Jehovah God = Alpha and Omega = Beginning and End = First and Last = the Living One who “became dead” = Jesus who was crucified and resurrected
