Christ’s introduction of Himself to Laodicea a. “Amen” is used as a name only here and in Isaiah 65:16, linking Christ to the God of Israel as the only source of true blessing and prosperity. b. “Faithful and true witness” defines the meaning of Amen and declares Him to be the guarantor and executor of the purposes of God. c. “The beginning (primary source) of the creation of God” refers to the resurrection (renewal—Col. 1:18) and Christ’s role as King of the new creation (Rev. 21:5; Col. 1:27; 2:9, 10). This descriptive defines for our understanding what Jesus means when He calls the church “lukewarm.”
