Who is the Lord, God Omnipotent? It is He Who is "King of kings and Lord of lords"

(Rev. 19: 16). What is His name, is it known? Yes, and no.

He Who takes to Himself His great power and reigns is Christ which Rev. 11: follows

by saying "Thy wrath is come" (Rev. 11: 18). At that time of judgment, this is declared to

be "the wrath of the LAMB" (Rev. 6: 16).

Returning once again to Rev. 4:, we noted that the title `which was, and is, and is to

come' is given (Rev. 4: 8). In chapter 1: this title is assumed by Christ (Rev. 1: 8) and is

used again in chapter 11:  Here however a somewhat remarkable feature demands

attention. All the critical texts, and the Revised Version read "Which art and which

wast" omitting the words `and which art to come' for the glorious reason, He is here seen

as having come. The name Jehovah was assumed by the Invisible God as the God of

Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, saying, "This is My name unto the age, and this is My

memorial unto all generations" (Exod. 3: 15). This is not correctly translated by the title

"Eternal" for `the age' and `generations' are within the limits of time. The glory of the

name Jehovah is that it will be fulfilled, and pass away, even as it is the glory of the office

Priest, and at long last, even "The Son also Himself" shall be subject unto Him that did

put all things under Him "That GOD", not Elohim, nor Jehovah, nor El Shaddai, nor

the Father, nor the Son, nor the Holy Spirit, but GOD in a sense hitherto unrevealed and

uncomprehended by man, shall then be all in all! The Son takes back the glory that was

His before the world was, the Son ascends the throne of Deity, the Mediatorial kingdom

being finished and the purpose of the ages achieved, all the self-limitations and voluntary

humiliation which Creation and Redemption imposed being no longer necessary, the day

of Redemption being reached, reconciliation being complete, God will then reveal why

creation was called into being; why it was necessary for The Image, The Form, The Word

to be assumed; why the relation of Father and Son came in with the Gospel; how it is

that no name or collection of names can ever set forth the Infinite; how the `Persons' of

the Godhead were assumptions of Deity until seeing through a `glass darkly' gives place

to sight.

In Acts 17: 27 the Apostle Paul, speaking of the Creator, said "That haply they

might feel after Him and find Him". "Feel after Him." This expression uses the Greek

word pselaphao "HANDLE Me, and see; for a spirit hath not flesh and bones, as ye see

Me have" (Luke 24: 39). "That which was from the beginning, which we have heard,

which w have seen with our eyes; which we have looked upon, and our hands have

HANDLED, of the Word of Life, for the life was manifested" (I John 1: 1, 2). Christ in

resurrection, the One Who "In the beginning" created all things, Who "from the

beginning" in resurrection was "manifested unto us", was preached by Paul to the

philosophers at Athens. They, in the dim light of their philosophy, `groped' (as the word

is translated in the O.T. Isa. 59: 10), but the disciples of the Saviour had actually

`touched' or `felt' Him (as the first occurrence of the word is translated in

Gen. 27: 12).
