“I am the Alpha and the Omega,” says the Lord God, “who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty.”
God Himself confirms His greeting: He declares His operation in every creature, His immutable eternity, and His omnipotence. In this unity of essence lies the Trinity of persons spoken before, He who existed before all things and by whom all things were made shall remain when all else perishes.
AI summary
In Christ, Genesis and Revelation meet, the Alpha of Scripture's opening and the Omega of its close. Man and God reconciled in Paradise answers man innocent in Paradise. Always the same, He stands unchanging before every foe, a consolation to saints facing the Church's coming trials.
AI summary
Study this book despite its obscurity; it will repay your labor. But reading and hearing alone will not bless you, you must keep what is written in memory, mind, affection, and practice. The nearer we draw to the day of fulfillment, the more attentive we ought to be.
