Personal Notes 1:8, NASB

8"I am AA)">(AA)the Alpha and the Omega," says the AB)">(AB)Lord God, "AC)">(AC)who is and who was and who is to come, the Almighty."

Clearly, this is the first quote, and, clearly :) from the 'Lord God'. I wonder what Greek words are being used for 'Lord God' here. God identifies Himself as Alpha and Omega, 'A and Z', is identified as "Lord God" and identifies Himself again as "Who is, Who was and Who is to come, the Almighty."

This is the second reference to "Who is, Who was and Who is to come", the first being in 1:4, there being identified as the One sending Grace and Peace to the recipients of John's letter/Revelation.

The Almighty--first usage in Revelation of this Name.
