AMEN
A


'Amen' is a Hebrew word, an affirmation made by those worshipping God in prayer or praise, showing their approval and agreement with what has been said.

"Praise be to the Lord, the God of Israel, from everlasting to everlasting. Let all the people say, 'Amen!'" (Psalm 106:48).

Amen means 'surely' and is connected with the Hebrew word for 'truth'. In Isaiah 65:16 God is twice described as the God of Amen ("the God of Truth"). The New Testament Greek word is a transliteration of the Hebrew, and is frequently used by Jesus in the phrase: 'Verily, verily, I say unto you' (KJV), 'I tell you the truth' (NIV), for example in John 5:24,25.

In Revelation 3:14 Jesus says: "These are the words of the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the ruler of God's creation".

Paul said that in Jesus all things were secure: "For no matter how many promises God has made, they are "Yes" in Christ. And so through him the "Amen" is spoken by us to the glory of God. Now it is God who makes both us and you stand firm in Christ." (2 Corinthians 1:20-21).
