Apologetics Roadshow | Jesus or Allah: Who Is the First and the Last? #Christianity #Islam #shorts @apologeticsroadshow | Uploaded August 2023 | Updated October 2024, 14 hours ago.
Surah 57:3 of the Quran refers to Allah as “the First and the Last.” “The First” and “the Last” are two of Allah’s 99 names.
The Old Testament calls Yahweh the “First and the Last,” as we read in Isaiah 44:6: “Thus says the LORD, the King of Israel and his Redeemer, the LORD of hosts: ‘I am the first and I am the last; besides me there is no god.’”
So, both the Bible and the Quran refer to God as “the First and the Last.”
Since “the First and the Last” is a title for God, imagine our surprise when Jesus says, in Revelation 1:17-18: “Do not be afraid. I am the First and the Last. I am the Living One; I was dead, and now look, I am alive for ever and ever! And I hold the keys of death and Hades.”
Who did Jesus think he was?
