The First and the Last

I greet you in Jesus’ precious name! It is Thursday morning, the 8th of May, 2025, and this is your friend, Angus Buchan, with a thought for today.

We start in the first book of the Bible, Genesis 1:1:

“In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” 

Do you believe that? I believe it with all of my heart. Then we go to the last book in the Bible, Revelation 22:12-13: Jesus says: 

“And behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to give to every one according to his work.” 

Listen to this now, verse 13:

“I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and the End, the First and the Last.” 

Oh my dear friend, Jesus Christ is God made flesh. When the disciples said, “Lord, show us the Father”, He said, “You have been with Me so long, have you not seen?” He is Father, Son and Holy Spirit. We believe in the Holy Trinity.

Now, I read an article explaining how the Big Bang started and this is what it says: “According to this theory, the universe expanded from an extremely small, extremely hot and extremely dense state. Since then it has expanded and become less dense and cooler. The Big Bang is the best model used by astronomers to explain the creation of matter, space and time, 13.7 billion years ago. That is the Big Bang Theory. 

Now, you might say to me, “Who created God?” Well, God always was. I have just read it to you. “In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.” He has always been and He always will be. He says,

“I am the same yesterday, today and forevermore”. (Hebrews 13:8)

The Big Bang Theory -  we need to ask those astronomers, who created the Big Bang or who created the extremely hot, extremely dense state? And they cannot tell you. I want to say to you today, I have a high respect for science. In fact, I have family members who are science teachers so I am not going there, I am just a simple farmer - but I have met the Man from Galilee, I have met the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. He is my Friend. He saved me from eternal damnation and hell and He can be your friend too, if you will simply open your heart today and believe Him. If people ask you questions and you don’t have the answers, don’t try and give them your explanation. Just tell them, “I don’t know about all these things but I do know one thing - Jesus Christ is my Lord and my Saviour.”

Have a wonderful day, Jesus bless you and by the way, He is coming back very soon. I can’t wait, can you?
Bye.
