Who was Jesus “the faithful witness” for....? Himself?Jesus was the ultimate Witness for God as a Jew who fulfilled the law. But he said to his disciples:
"But you will receive power when the Holy Spirit has come upon you, and you will be my witnesses in Jerusalem and in all Judea and Samaria, and to the end of the earth.” - Acts 1:8
“To the angel of the congregation in La·o·di·ceʹa write: These are the things that the Amen says, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation by God”. (Rev 3:14)
How can one be a witness for Jesus without being a witness for Jehovah......the one who “sent” him, in order to make his Father’s name known?
John 17:25-26...
“25 Righteous Father, the world has, indeed, not come to know you, but I know you, and these have come to know that you sent me. 26 I have made your name known to them and will make it known, so that the love with which you loved me may be in them and I in union with them.”
Just as a side note......How is he “the beginning of God’s creation”?
