Suggested Reading: Revelation 22. 

35. Jesus: Behold I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to render to every man according to what he has done. I am the Alpha and Omega, the first and the last, the beginning and the end (Rev 22:12, 13). 

36. Personal Response Necessary

Trinity understands God as three-personed: Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, God in community, each ‘person’ in active communion with the others. We are given an understanding of God that is most emphatically personal and interpersonal. If God is revealed as personal, the only way that God can be known is in personal response. We need to know this. It is the easiest thing in the world to use words as a kind of abstract truth or principle, to deal with the gospel as information. Trinity prevents us from doing this. …                  Eugene Peterson, Christ Plays in Ten Thousand Places

Prayers along the way:

O Lord, Grant us, according to the riches of Your glory, To be strengthened with power through Your Spirit in the inner man, So that Christ may dwell in our hearts through faith; And that we, being rooted and grounded in love, May be able to comprehend with all the saints what is the Breadth and length and height and depth, And to know the love of Christ which surpasses knowledge, That we may be filled up to all the fullness of God.

from Ephesians 3:16-19
