Is Jesus God because he said I
am Alpha and the Omega
By Ahmed Eldin
When Muslims (Isaiah 56:5: Muslim is the future believers' name. Sons and daughters titles will be "no more") corner
Christians on the subject “Is Jesus God”? Christians often try to prove the
divinity of Jesus by quoting the passage from the Revelation that Jesus said,
“I am Alpha and the Omega”. However, this argument is soundly refuted:

Now
personally I want to draw the attention of the Christians in another passage of
the Bible, in the book of Hebrews we read:
1. For
this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most
high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and
blessed him;
2. To whom
also Abraham gave a tenth part of all; first being by interpretation King of
righteousness, and after that also King of Salem, which is, King of peace;
3. Without father, without mother, without descent, having neither beginning of days, nor end of life; but
made like unto the Son of God; abideth a priest
continually. ( Hebrews 7:13)
Notice
this Priest Melchisedec “has neither beginning of
days, nor end of life”, in other words very logically we can say that this
statement is much more superior than the statement supposed uttered by Jesus
(that he is Alpha and the Omega). Because alpha and Omega has a beginning and
end but this Priest Melchisedec has no beginning and
no end, therefore why Christians don’t consider this Priest as God Almighty?
Because his superiority from Jesus is not only for his eternal existence but
also because he does not have a mother, Jesus had a mother, and he does not
have a descent, Jesus had descents (two genealogies according to the gospels).
So when Christians try to prove the divinity of Jesus by the statement “Iam
Alpha and Omega” I advise them to better look the statement of Melchisedec which is much more superior than
Jesus. However, Christians do not support that Melchisedec
is God. So there is no big deal when Jesus said I am Alpha and the Omega.
