"This is what the Lord says-Israel's King and Redeemer, the Lord Almighty: I am the First and the Last; apart from Me there is no God. Who then is like Me? Let him proclaim it. Let Him declare and lay out before Me what has happened since I established My ancient people, and what is yet to come-yes, let them, foretell what will come. Do not tremble, do not be afraid. Did I not proclaim this and foretell it long ago? You are My witnesses. Is there any God besides Me? No, there is no other Rock; I know not one."
- Isaiah 44:6-8
