Revelation 22:12
Behold, I am coming quickly, and My reward is with Me, to render to every man according to what he has done. (NASB)
The speaker in Revelation 22:12 refers to Jehovah and not to the Lord Jesus.
Insight on the Scriptures: The Alpha and the Omega of verses 12-15, therefore, may properly be identified as the same one who bears the title in the other two occurrences: Jehovah God. The expression, Look! I am coming quickly, in verse 12, does not require that these aforementioned verses apply to Jesus, inasmuch as God also speaks of himself as coming to execute judgment. (Compare Isa 26:21.) (Alpha and Omega, Volume 1)

The speaker in Revelation 22:12 refers to the Lord Jesus.
The Watchtower: In the last book of the Bible, the glorified Christ Jesus stresses the suddenness of his coming, saying: I am coming quickly. (Revelation 3:11; 22:7, 12, 20) (Prove Yourself Ready for Jehovah's Day, December 15, 2003)

The only person, besides Adam, that ever lived on the earth that was perfect was Jesus. And his disciples were always making errors. That didn't make them false disciples.

Did I do a one-liner, even though he asked me a one-liner question? That is, he asked a question that only required a one-line answer?
BTW, Faber, that IS a legitimate JW website. I just haven't used it yet because I am used to using the CD-Roms for the library. All the new technology is beyond my simple brain's comprehension.
Sorry for the mix-up.
