Jesus Christ seeking and calling those who will dine with Him

Good morning, beloved friends and brethren present here in Juiz de Fora. It is a privilege for me to be with you here in the Republic of Brazil, to share with you a few moments of fellowship around the Word of God and His Program relevant to this end time.

For which I want to read in Revelation, chapter 3, verse 20, where it tells us:

“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.”

Our subject for this occasion is: “JESUS CHRIST SEEKING THOSE WHO WILL DINE WITH HIM.”

These words are spoken by Jesus Christ when He addresses the Church of Laodicea.

And in order to understand what all this means, we need to know that these seven churches of Asia Minor that are mentioned in the book of Revelation, which are… In Revelation, chapter 1, verse 10 to 11, we read to see what those churches are; the apostle Saint John says:

“I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet,

Saying, I am Alpha and Omega, the first and the last: and, What thou seest, write in a book, and send it unto the seven churches which are in Asia; unto Ephesus, and unto Smyrna, and unto Pergamos, and unto Thyatira, and unto Sardis, and unto Philadelphia, and unto Laodicea.”

These seven churches of Asia Minor represent, in the Program or prophetic Word, the Church of Jesus Christ going through seven stages; and everything that would be happening during those seven stages of the Church of Jesus Christ among the gentiles was reflected in these seven churches of Asia Minor.

And the angels mentioned there, who at that time were pastors of those churches, represent the messengers that Jesus Christ would have in His Church during those seven ages or stages.

Saint Paul was the first messenger of the Church of Jesus Christ among the gentiles, he was the messenger to the stage represented in the Ephesian church; and that first stage of the Church of Jesus Christ reached a time where it lost, left, its first love in Jesus Christ; and that is what God accuses that age of, that age represented in the Ephesian church that existed at that time.

And now, we can see that in those churches everything that would happen during the Dispensation of Grace in the Church of Jesus Christ was reflected, in the stage pertaining to the Holy Place of the spiritual Temple of Jesus Christ. We can see that the last stage is the Laodicean Age (or represented in the Age of Laodicea).

The Message is always addressed to the angel, the angel receives it from God and then the angel preaches it in his age; and God, manifested in the angel messenger of each age, speaks to all Christianity, which is composed of the wise virgins and the foolish virgins.

And also, within Christianity there is the wheat, which are the children of God, and there are also the tares, which are the children of the evil one. According to Jesus’ parable of the wheat and the tares, in Matthew, chapter 13, verse 30 to 43, we find that the wheat and the tares are in the same field. Therefore, in the midst of Christianity there would be the wheat and there would also be the tares: The children of God and the children of the evil one.

Like in Genesis we find Cain and Abel. Cain, the Scripture says, was of the evil one and killed his brother Abel.¹ Abel wasn’t of the evil one: he was a seed of God who came through Adam and Eve.

We also find (before that), in the Garden of Eden, the Tree of Life, which is Christ, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil,² which is the wicked one, who became incarnate in the serpent, and spoke through the serpent and acted through the serpent, and deceived Eve.

Now, we can see that God and God’s enemy have always been manifested in the midst of this planet Earth.

And now, in the midst of the Church of Jesus Christ would be found, in the midst of Christianity, the wheat would be found there, which are the children of God, and the tares would also be found there, which are the children of the evil one.

We also saw the same thing in the midst of the Hebrew people under the Dispensation of the Law: there were the children of the good one and the children of the evil one.

That is why Jesus on some occasions called some people “Abraham’s seed.” For example, speaking of Zacchaeus³ and speaking of other people like that,⁴ He said that they were children of Abraham; they were Abraham’s seed.

But also, speaking of other people, although they were religious leaders, He said that they were of the evil one; He said to them: “You are of your father the devil, and the works of your father you will do.”⁵ That was an offense, but it was the truth; and the truth can’t be sugar-coated.

One has to face reality, the truth; even if it is hard, one has to recognize it; because if one doesn’t recognize the truth, one will be living under illusions, deceived, one will not be living the reality. And it is better to live the reality, even if it has hard parts, than to be living of illusions, deceived; because he who lives of illusions and doesn’t face the truth, the reality of his time: he is living deceived, he is not living the reality. You have to live the reality to obtain the correct results.

Now, we can see that the wheat and the tares are found in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, that is, in all of Christianity; and the wheat and the tares also receive the rain and the sun; because God sends the rain and the sun upon the good and also upon the bad, and both give thanks to God for the rain and for the sun.

Now, we have to understand this reality to know that there are children of God and there are children of the evil one on this planet Earth.

It was for the end time that Jesus Christ said He would do the separation. In the parable of the wheat and the tares, He showed that the servants came to Him saying: “Do you want us to pull out the tares (which represent the children of the evil one)?” Jesus Christ said: “No, for by pulling out the tares you might also pull out the wheat.”⁶ And the wheat is that which is of great value to God: The sons and daughters of God are those who are of value to God.

And for the sake of the sons and daughters of God, the blessing of God comes upon the Earth for the children of God, and the children of the evil one are also partakers of that blessing; as the rain and the sun come upon the good grass, and the tares also receive of that rain.

Look, when God was going to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah, Abraham was interceding. Why? Because he had his nephew Lot and Lot’s family there. And he said to God: “Will you, the Judge of all the Earth, destroy the righteous with the unrighteous? Let not the Judge of all the Earth do such a thing. If there are fifty righteous people there, will you destroy the city?” God said to him: “For the sake of those fifty righteous people, I will spare the whole city.”⁷

See what God does for the sake of the righteous, out of love for the wheat, out of love for those who are God’s: He forgives even the wicked ones, and extends divine blessing upon the righteous and also covers the wicked.

See how great is the Love of God: The rain falls upon the righteous and also upon the unrighteous; for if the righteous are on Earth, a city can be safe for the sake of the righteous. God can avoid bringing divine judgment upon that city or upon that country out of love for those righteous, out of love for the wheat, out of love for the sons and daughters of God.

Abraham continues to intercede and says: “Perhaps there are not fifty; perhaps there are five missing, and there are only forty-five there.” God says to him: “For the sake of those forty-five, I will not destroy the city.” And Abraham continues to intercede.

And how could Abraham intercede? The patriarchs, being the head of their people, were like the king of all their descendants, and also the priest of all their descendants; and that is why they performed the functions of king and priest. That is why you find them offering to God the corresponding sacrifices, in order to make intercession for their whole family; for the whole tribe, composed of their descendants.

Now, Abraham is the head of all those descendants of his, and also of the servants and slaves that he had, and also of his nephew Lot.

And now, Abraham continues to lower the number and says to God: “Perhaps there may not be the forty-five righteous there; perhaps there will be some missing there, of the fifty, not five, but ten will be missing (that is in our words).” He says:

“And he spake unto him yet again, and said, Peradventure there shall be forty found there. And he said, I will not do it for forty’s sake (that is, ‘I will not destroy the city’).”

I’m reading in chapter 18 of Genesis, verse… Now I’m going to verse 30. And now Abraham is going to start going down ten by ten, because that way he’s going to get to the lowest number.

“And he spake unto him yet again, and said, Peradventure there shall be forty found there.”

A little further down it says:

“And he said unto him, Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak: Peradventure there shall thirty be found there. And he said, I will not do it, if I find thirty there (that is, ‘I will not destroy the city’).

And he said, Behold now, I have taken upon me to speak unto the Lord: Peradventure there shall be twenty found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for twenty’s sake.”

Look, for the sake of twenty people, a city like Sodom, and other cities that were around Sodom, like Gomorrah and the other cities: for the sake of twenty righteous, God wouldn’t destroy the city of Sodom and the other cities.

Look at what God does for the sake of twenty righteous, and even look at how Abraham keeps decreasing the number; because if he keeps decreasing the number, he can reach Lot and his family.

If Lot didn’t have fifty people in his family, because he hadn’t multiplied greatly, then with this that Abraham is doing he can reach the number of Lot’s family; because Abraham is interceding for Lot and his family, and consequently, for all Sodom and Gomorrah and the other cities.

“And he said (Abraham), Oh let not the Lord be angry, and I will speak yet but this once: Peradventure ten shall be found there. And he said, I will not destroy it for ten’s sake.”

For ten righteous people, ten people who were walking in the Light of God’s Program for that time, God wouldn’t destroy Sodom and Gomorrah.

At that time, the messenger of God, do you know who it was? The prophet and patriarch Abraham, a dispensational prophet.

That is why when Jesus speaks of the Coming of the Son of Man for the Last Day, He refers to the days of Lot,⁸ in which Abraham was the prophet messenger of the Dispensation of the Promise. And God, Christ, also refers to the days of Noah,⁹ where Noah was the prophet messenger of the Dispensation of Human Government, which was the third dispensation; as Abraham was the messenger of the fourth dispensation, of the Dispensation of the Promise.

In other words, Christ refers to dispensational prophets; because the Coming of the Son of Man is for the time of the intertwining of the Dispensation of the Kingdom with the Dispensation of Grace.

And whenever the time comes for a dispensational intertwining, God sends a dispensational prophet; and that dispensational prophet appears at the door of the dispensation that is ending, and appears knocking at that door, and appears calling all those who are there, within that dispensation that is coming to an end, and invites them to listen to the Voice of God; and then passes them on to a new dispensation, where a great spiritual feast is held, and a great spiritual supper or a great spiritual meal of the Word of God for a new dispensation is given to the people.

Now, we can see that when a dispensational prophet appears in the Program of God, a very great stage of the Divine Program is being carried out; and a great blessing for the people is there before them, but also divine judgment is about to fall upon the human race.

For Noah’s time, with Noah’s presence there, the divine judgment was about to fall upon the human race; and it was revealed to Noah that the divine judgment would come upon the human race. And it was something inconceivable, because at that time it didn’t rain as it rains today: from the Earth rose a vapor that watered the whole Earth during the night¹⁰; because the Earth wasn’t inclined as it is today. It had never rained as it rains today; and to announce that a flood would come, when they didn’t know what a good downpour was, was inconceivable.

But doesn’t the one who created water know the formula? Of course He does. All He has to do is to unite in the atmosphere: hydrogen and oxygen, in the composition corresponding to water, and there we have water to fall from the sky.

And now, we can see that the one who said He would bring a flood and destroy the human race, knew how to do it; and not only that, there was also water on Earth. The water that was on the Earth would also be brought in great quantities: fountains of water would be opened, and so water would also come out of the Earth to produce that flood.

Now, we can see that all that was inconceivable. Science at that time was advanced; for that time people lived 500, 600, 700, 800 and 900 and something years. Methuselah lived 969 years.¹¹

And now, if they weren’t more advanced than those of this time, in the scientific field and in the other fields, how is it possible then that the human being is more advanced scientifically in this time and they can’t live past 200 or 300 years?, when the people of that time reached 500, 600, 700, 800 and 900 and something years. Something is missing in science to obtain the secret of how the human being can last as many years as they did at that time.

But look, the important thing is not to last many years. The important thing being here on Earth is to make contact with eternal life, and thus be sealed with the Seal of the living God to be redeemed, to be brought back to life in an eternal body. It is very important then to make contact with eternal life, which is our beloved Lord Jesus Christ.

He said: “I am the way, the truth and the life; and no one comes to the Father but by me.”¹² There is no other way: Christ is the Way. He is the Eternal Life. And: “He that heareth my word, and believeth Him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.”¹³

The most important thing for the human being is eternal life; the other things are the additions to life. That is why He says: “Seek first the Kingdom of God and His righteousness; all other things will be added to it.”¹⁴

And to enter the Kingdom of God is through the new birth: by believing in Christ as our Savior and washing our sins in the Blood of Christ, and receiving His Holy Spirit; and thus we obtain the new birth, and thus we are born in the Kingdom of God; we have entered the Kingdom of God, we have found the Kingdom of God, and we are sealed in the Kingdom of God with the Holy Spirit, and we have eternal life. That is the most important thing for the person. The other things are the additions of life, which a person cannot take with him when he dies physically; but eternal life is never lost.

Jesus Christ said in John, chapter 6, for the believers in Him, verse 40:

“And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.”

No other person can speak that way, no other person can make such a promise. And He proved, with Lazarus’ resurrection, that He will resurrect us; He resurrected Lazarus as an example of what He will do with all the departed saints¹⁵; and for us who are alive, for He will transform us, if we remain alive until the dead in Christ are resurrected.

And after being already with the new body, from 30 to 40 days here…

Just as Jesus Christ was already resurrected 40 days, appearing to His disciples on different occasions…¹⁶; and the Old Testament saints, who were resurrected with Christ, were also with Christ resurrected, and were with Him those 40 days here on Earth, appearing to different people in Jerusalem¹⁷ and in different places; and then they went with Christ to Heaven, when Christ ascended to Heaven.

And the psalm that speaks about Christ and His ascension was fulfilled, where it says: “Lift up, O eternal doors, and the King of glory will come in. Who is this King of glory?” That King of glory is none other than the Lord. And when that promise, that prophecy was fulfilled, that Jehovah was none other than our beloved Lord Jesus Christ, who was ascending, who was ascending, with the Old Testament saints, who had resurrected with Him.

Now we can see who our beloved Lord Jesus Christ is: He is none other than the Jehovah of the Old Testament manifested in the New Testament. That is our Lord, that is our Savior. He is the greatest and most important person who has ever walked this planet Earth. No wonder Saint Paul calls Him the second Adam.¹⁸

And now, notice, in Psalm 24 is where it tells us, from verse 7 onwards:

“Lift up your heads, O ye gates; and be ye lift up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.”

Thus cry those who are ascending with Christ, the saints who had resurrected. And from within, in Heaven, they ask:

“Who is this King of glory?”

And they answered:

“The Lord strong and mighty, the Lord mighty in battle.”

And He entered Heaven, because the eternal gates were opened, and He entered with the Old Testament saints, who were resurrected.

And for the Last Day there will be a resurrection of the New Testament saints. And after being 30 to 40 days here: the resurrected saints with the new body, and we who are alive being transformed and being with the new body: after 30 to 40 days we will go with Christ to Heaven, to the House of our heavenly Father, to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. And this verse 9 and 10 of Psalm 24 will be fulfilled:

“Lift up your heads, O ye gates; even lift them up, ye everlasting doors; and the King of glory shall come in.

Who is this King of glory? The Lord of hosts, he is the King of glory. Selah.”

And that is our beloved Lord Jesus Christ, the King of kings and Lord of lords, the King of Heaven and Earth, the King of glory, our beloved Savior.

The first part of this psalm already, which speaks to us of this ascension, has already been fulfilled with the rapture of Jesus Christ and the Old Testament saints, who were resurrected. And for this end time, with the rapture of God’s elect of the Church of Jesus Christ, after the dead in Christ and we who are alive are resurrected, this second part of Psalm 24 will be fulfilled.

Now, for this time, Christ has said that we would be living as in the days of Noah and as in the days of Lot. In the days of Noah mankind had come to its end, and didn’t know it, but there was a man who did know it; for all divine revelation always comes to a man, to a prophet.

It is to the prophets that the Word of God comes. “For the Lord God will do nothing, except He reveals His secrets to His servants His prophets,” says Amos, chapter 3, verse 7. And also Deuteronomy, chapter 18, verse 15 to 19: “The Lord your God will raise up unto you a prophet like me; him shall ye hear.”

And why does the prophet Moses say that we must listen to this prophet that God raises up? For the simple reason expressed in verse 18:

“I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.”

Since God places His Word in the mouth of that prophet that He sends, and that prophet speaks whatever God sends him to speak to the people, every person is called to listen to the Voice of God. And the Voice of God has always been in the prophets that He has sent; and thanks to that we have the Bible, the Word of God, which has come from God through His prophets.

And now, we have seen the reason why every person is called to listen to the prophet that God sends. Otherwise, what happened to the Hebrew people in past times when God sent His prophets happens to the person. Zechariah, chapter 7, verse 11 to 12, says; speaking of the Hebrew people, and that they didn’t want to listen to the Voice of God, it says:

“But they refused to hearken, and pulled away the shoulder, and stopped their ears, that they should not hear.

Yea, they made their hearts as an adamant stone, lest they should hear the law, and the words which the Lord of hosts hath sent in his spirit by the former prophets: therefore came a great wrath from the Lord of hosts.”

Why? Because they didn’t want to listen to the Voice of God sent by His Spirit through His prophets.

It is through the Spirit of God that the prophets receive the Word, and anointed speak that Word of God for the people; and when they speak, that is the Voice of God for the people, that Word being spoken.

And the people who hear that Word through that prophet, are hearing the Voice of God through a man; and he who receives a prophet in the name of a prophet, receives a prophet’s reward:¹⁹ he receives the benefit for which God has sent that prophet.

You see, those who were under the ministry of Noah received the blessing, the prophet’s reward: they entered the ark and were saved, even the animals; and those who didn’t listen to the Voice of God through the prophet Noah: the flood came and took them away, destroyed them. That is why Jesus, in Matthew, chapter 24, speaks to us of the days of Noah (chapter 24, verse 37 and on) and tells us:

“But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.”

Remember, that generation had come to an end: The Dispensation of Conscience had come to an end; and a new dispensation was intertwining: the Dispensation of Human Government; and there was its messenger: the prophet Noah. And the prophet Noah, notice, appears on the scene because the Dispensation of Conscience has come to its end.

And when a dispensation comes to an end: a divine judgment must fall upon the human race. Just as when an age comes to an end: a divine judgment falls upon the human race; but it is a partial judgment, it doesn’t cover the whole world; but when it is the end of a dispensation, the judgment covers all people.

And now, a prophet sent by God always appears, who has God’s revelation of the things that are to happen at that time. And some people don’t understand him; some people think he is a fanatic, that he is a madman or anything like that.

In Noah’s time there were millions of people, and there were many religions, and there were many religious leaders. But look, how many believed Noah? None; only his wife, and his sons, and his daughters-in-law. They were the ones who stood arm in arm with Noah, working with Noah; and then they entered the ark, and Noah and his family were saved.

Noah had his family under the sacrifice for sin, because Noah being the head of his family had his family under the sacrifice for sin; therefore, their sins were covered with the blood of those sacrifices. And that is why the Bible says that Noah was found to be a righteous man.²⁰

It is not that he had no problems, it is not that he didn’t make mistakes, but by means of the sacrifices made, the blood of the sacrifices covered his mistakes, his sins; and then God looked and did not notice sin, because they were covered, although not removed; because the only blood that removes sin is the Blood of Jesus Christ.

But those sacrifices typified the Sacrifice of Christ on Calvary’s Cross, that is why they were effective in that form in the Old Testament; but now with the Blood of Jesus Christ shed on Calvary’s Cross, God doesn’t accept any other blood nor any other sacrifice.

Therefore, the sacrifices that were made in the Old Testament have already been taken away; only one sacrifice has remained: The Sacrifice of Christ, and only one blood: The Blood of Jesus Christ. God accepts neither another sacrifice nor another blood.

Sin can no longer be covered: it must be removed; and the only thing that removes it is the Blood of Christ. The Blood of Jesus Christ cleanses us from all sin.²¹

And now, for the Last Day…; just as in past times the patriarchs, who were the head of their family…; and therefore, they were like the kings of their tribe, of their family, and also the priest who worked the religious matters; that is why you find Abraham, Isaac and Jacob performing those sacrifices, and you also find other men of God performing those sacrifices: because they occupied the position of the head of their family, and did the work of priests as well.

And now, we can see that that position was very important in the midst of the Hebrew people. And those patriarchs have a very important position for the glorious Millennial Kingdom and also for eternity. For example, we have 24 thrones: 12 thrones for the 12 patriarchs and 12 thrones for the 12 apostles.

We can see that the glorious Millennial Kingdom, and then the Kingdom for all eternity, is well arranged. And the people who will be in that Kingdom and will have those positions, have had to be coming to this Earth to enter the Program of God and thus to be sealed in that position, which they will receive in the glorious Millennial Kingdom.

The disciples of Jesus Christ were very concerned about the position they would have in the Kingdom of Christ. Some people say: “I am not interested in rewards.” The disciples of Jesus Christ were. Christ has promised them; and because Christ has promised them, we are interested in them. And it is only by being in the Mystical Body of Christ and working in the Work of Christ that the person will then receive according to his works.

Jesus Christ says in Revelation, chapter 22, verse 12:

“And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.”

In addition to the salvation and eternal life that He gives us, He will also give us rewards; and there will be very important positions in the Kingdom of God.

For example, the disciples, they were all looking for the best position; and they were arguing with each other talking about who would be the greatest in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ, in the Kingdom of God; they all wanted to be the greatest.

And on one occasion they tell Jesus Christ that they had left everything; and Christ tells them…; because they ask: “What will we receive in eternal life (that is, in Your Kingdom)?” Jesus Christ says to them: “A hundred times what you have left, plus eternal life.”²² And on another occasion He tells them that they will sit on 12 thrones and judge the 12 tribes of Israel.²³

In Old Testament times, the judges sat at the gate of the entrance of the city to judge. That is where Boaz went, to make the claim of Naomi and Ruth, because he was presenting himself as the kinsman redeemer, to redeem Naomi, and therefore, redeem Ruth²⁴; because Ruth belonged to Naomi, she was her son’s wife (or daughter-in-law).

Now we can see that all this has a meaning.

And now, the apostles have that position promised by Christ: they will sit on 12 thrones to judge the 12 tribes of Israel.

Two of those apostles, who were brothers: James and John, also wanted a higher position; but Christ already had a throne for each of them; but they wanted to be closer to Jesus. And their mother also helped them, like any good mother who loves God and loves her children: she wants the best for her children.

And what mother doesn’t want that for her children? Well, they all want the best for their children: They want the greatest blessing for their children. And if you ask a mother: “Of all people, who do you think is the best person for the greatest position in the Kingdom of God, after the Lord Jesus Christ?”, every mother would say: “Well, my son!”

Well, that is what the mother of James and John did: “Those are my sons! I have two: one to sit on the right hand of Jesus Christ and one to sit on the left hand of Jesus Christ. Let’s go to Jesus Christ! Let’s go and make this request to Him!”²⁵

They had seen on Mount Transfiguration Jesus Christ, His face shining like the sun, and they saw Moses on one side and Elijah on the other side; and they knew that this is the order of the Coming of the Son of Man for the Last Day, for the establishment of the Kingdom of God on Earth.

That is the order of the Coming of the Kingdom of God; it was reflected or represented on Mount Transfiguration, for what Christ promised them is that He would show them the Kingdom of God.²⁶

Now, on Mount Transfiguration, they saw in that vision the Coming of the Kingdom of God; and they saw the Son of Man coming in the Kingdom with His Angels, who were Moses and Elijah there. Angels are prophet messengers.

And now, we find that John and his brother Jacob (or James) wanted the position they saw there represented in Moses and Elijah; because that vision would be fulfilled in the Last Day, at the Coming of the Kingdom of God.

Remember that James and John always wanted to be like Moses and Elijah; remember that they are called “the sons of thunder.”²⁷ They were the ones who on one occasion, when in a city of Samaria didn’t want to receive Christ…, who was on His way to Jerusalem but He had to make a stop on His way, and He wanted to do it in Samaria; and when He sent some of His disciples to prepare everything in Samaria, they didn’t welcome Him, in a city of Samaria.

And then James and John say to Jesus: “Do you want us to send down fire from heaven and destroy them all, as Elijah the prophet did?” See how they wanted to be like Elijah? But Jesus said to them: “You don’t know what kind of spirit you are.”²⁸

Now, they wanted the ministry of Elijah. And the ministry of Elijah to be performing those great signs and wonders is promised in Revelation, chapter 11, verse 3 and on; and Zechariah, chapter 4; and that is for this end time, in the manifestation of the ministry of Elijah in its fifth manifestation with the ministry of Moses for the second time.

Now, look at what they wanted: they wanted the ministries of Moses and Elijah, who are the ones that will be able to do these things in the Last Day; at a certain time of the Last Day, not at any time; and that speaks of adoption.

It will be under a ministry that will be adopted, through which those great signs and wonders will be seen, in the fulfillment of the ministries of Moses and Elijah.

Now, all this corresponds to the Coming of the Son of Man with His Angels for this end time; and these are days like those of Noah and like those of Lot.

And now, for that time there was a dispensational prophet. At the time of Noah, that prophet was Noah, a dispensational prophet.

When we speak of a dispensational prophet, we speak of the greatest kind of prophet that exists in the Divine Program. And of all the dispensational prophets, the greatest, do you know who it is? Our beloved Lord Jesus Christ.

And now, these dispensational prophets are rare. For people to see a dispensational prophet, do you know what they need? To live in the time that God sends him. And that is not easy. The person has to be ordained to live in that time; because the person does not say to God: “I want You to send me to live in such and such a time.” How many of you told God that you wanted to live in this time? None of you. God is the one who chooses the time in which each person is going to live.

And now, for this time in which we live, being a similar time, parallel to the time of Noah and the time of Lot… In the time of Lot there was also a dispensational prophet: the prophet Abraham.

Now, how many dispensational prophets are there? Only seven. Do you see how few there are? The first one was Adam, the second one was Seth. Adam for the Dispensation of Innocence, Seth for the Dispensation of Conscience. The third was Noah, for the Dispensation of Human Government; the fourth was Abraham, for the Dispensation of the Promise; the fifth was the prophet Moses, for the Dispensation of the Law; the sixth was our beloved Lord Jesus Christ, for the Dispensation of Grace; and the seventh is the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ. And with the seventh ends the dispensational prophets.

And that Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ is the prophet of the Dispensation of the Kingdom, which appears in the Last Day in that dispensational intertwining, where the Dispensation of Grace has reached the end time. And the Dispensation of the Kingdom is intertwined with the Dispensation of Grace, as the Dispensation of Grace was intertwined with the Dispensation of the Law. John the Baptist was the last prophet of the Dispensation of the Law; and Jesus appears, the prophet messenger of the Dispensation of Grace.

God doesn’t have two greater prophets at the same time in the same age nor in the same dispensation; that is, He doesn’t have two prophets corresponding to two ages, He can’t have them within the same age.

And when two prophets appear, as John the Baptist and Jesus appeared, they are not in the same age; although apparently they are there present on the scene; but John the Baptist is within the Dispensation of the Law, in the seventh age or stage of the Dispensation of the Law, and Jesus Christ is in the Age of the Cornerstone opening a new dispensation.

That is why you can see that Jesus Christ spoke the way He spoke: because He is in the Age of the Cornerstone, the Crowning Age, the Golden Age, the age of the First Coming of Christ; the age where He, as the Lamb of God, would carry out the Work of Redemption on Calvary’s Cross.

The people who were in the Dispensation of the Law couldn’t understand Jesus, because Jesus was in a new dispensation making that dispensational intertwining; and they couldn’t understand Him.

John the Baptist didn’t fully understand Him either; although John the Baptist had said that after him would come another man, another male, another prophet, who was greater than he, and He would baptize them with the baptism of the Holy Spirit and Fire.²⁹

The followers of John were baptized in water, baptism of repentance, but the followers of Jesus would be baptized —in addition— with the Holy Spirit and Fire. Those who stayed with John never received the baptism of the Holy Spirit and Fire. Those who continued and followed Jesus were the ones who received the baptism of the Holy Spirit and Fire.

Saint Paul, in chapter 19 of the book of Acts, later met some of John’s disciples, and he asks them: “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed?” They said to him: “We don’t even know that there is a Holy Spirit.” Paul says to them: “And into what were you baptized?” They say: “In the baptism of John.” Paul says: “John baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying that they should believe in Him who was to come after him.”

It was of no avail, or of little avail, to follow the forerunner messenger if afterwards the one foreran wasn’t followed; for those who stayed only with the forerunner went (how far?) as far as water baptism; but they couldn’t receive the Holy Spirit until they followed Him of whom John spoke: The Messiah, Jesus; and then they would receive Christ as their Savior, wash their sins in the Blood of Christ, and receive the Holy Spirit.

Those who stayed with John, their sins weren’t washed with the Blood of Christ; therefore, they couldn’t receive the Holy Spirit. We must follow the one foreran, Jesus Christ, after having believed in the forerunner.

You see, John the Baptist was the Elijah that had to come at that time: A powerful prophet, a man of that time anointed with the ministry of Elijah; because the Spirit of God was manifested in him, anointing him as the Elijah that had to come for that time.

When God promises that He will send the prophet Elijah, what He sends is the ministry of Elijah in another man; this is how His promise is fulfilled.

Then, when He sent him for the fourth time, it was the Reverend William Branham. He was the Elijah who was to come forerunning the Second Coming of Christ.

And for the Last Day we have the promise that Elijah will return; that is for the fifth time. And that is the Elijah that will preach to the Hebrew people, that is the Elijah that will come anointed with the Holy Spirit; and the Holy Spirit will be in him operating the ministry of Elijah for the fifth time (the ministry of one of the Two Olive Trees), and will also be operating the ministry of Moses for the second time, and will also be operating the ministry of Jesus for the second time.

It is the Coming of the Angel of the Covenant, of the Holy Spirit, manifested in the Last Day in human flesh in a dispensational prophet, which is the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ, to operate those three great ministries: That of Elijah for the fifth time, that of Moses for the second time and that of Jesus for the second time. But that Angel is not the Lord Jesus Christ: he is a man of this time redeemed with the Blood of Jesus Christ, he is one of the Mystical Body of Christ.

That is why when John the apostle in Revelation, chapter 19, verses 6 to 10, and Revelation, chapter 22, verses 6 to 10, fell down before the Angel that showed him all this apocalyptic revelation, and fell at his feet to worship him, the Angel told him not to do it; and the Angel identified himself as one of the fellow servants of John and of the prophets (fellow servant of the prophets, that is, a colleague, a fellow servant), and a redeemed by the Blood of Christ. He is a fellow servant of the prophets, of John the apostle, and is a fellow servant of all those redeemed by the Blood of Christ, all those who have the testimony of Jesus Christ.

That Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ, being the prophet of the seventh dispensation is the seventh dispensational prophet; and through that prophet, Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit will be manifested in this end time and will be speaking to His Church in a Golden Age, called the Age of the Cornerstone.

That is why, through His Angel Messenger, He makes known to us in Revelation 22, verse 6, all these things that must happen soon. That is the Voice of Jesus Christ in this Last Day; because Jesus Christ places His Word in the mouth and heart of His Angel Messenger, and he will speak to us everything that Jesus Christ commands him to speak to us. And that is the Great Voice of Trumpet or Last Trumpet of Jesus Christ: The Voice of the Alpha and Omega, of the first and the last.

But remember: that Angel, although he is a dispensational prophet and is the first dispensational prophet that Jesus Christ sends to His Church, even with all that, that Angel is not the Lord Jesus Christ. He is only the instrument of Jesus Christ, for Jesus Christ to manifest Himself in the midst of His Church in this Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom.

In Revelation, chapter 3, verse 20, we find Jesus Christ knocking at the door. Why? Because the seven ages of the gentile Church have already ended, and therefore, He is already out of the seven stages or ages of the gentile Church.

He is knocking at the door and is calling all the elect of God; He is calling them to open the door so He can come in, and dine with them and they with Him.

It is at the end of the Dispensation of Grace where this takes place; and Christ through His Angel Messenger calls and gathers His elect for the great Marriage Supper of the Lamb, which will take place in Heaven, and for a spiritual supper that we also carry out by eating of the Word of God in this end time. For that is to be dining, eating the Word with Christ; for “man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.”³⁰

This Food that is eaten, which is the Word of God, is eaten where? In the House of God.

That is why Jesus Christ in this parable of the faithful and wise servant shows us that He has placed faithful and wise servants in His House, which is His Church, and He asks us, in Matthew, chapter 24, verse 42 and on, who is the faithful and wise servant. Now see how all this is shown; it says:

“Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.”

Why does Jesus Christ command us to watch? He commands us to watch for the Coming of the Son of Man for the Last Day, which will be as in the days of Noah and as in the days of Lot.

“Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?”

Through the different stages of the Church of Jesus Christ, the faithful and wise servants have been the messengers of the seven ages of the gentile Church for the Dispensation of Grace, in the part of the Holy Place of the Temple of God, of that spiritual Temple, which is the Church of Jesus Christ.

And after these seven stages have passed in the House of God, where the children of God have eaten the spiritual food of the Word relevant to the time in which they lived, which is the Message of Jesus Christ through each messenger; now, which is the faithful and wise servant that will be in this end time, in the part of the Most Holy Place, which is the Age of the Cornerstone, in the House of God? That is the faithful and wise servant who will be in the House of God at the time of the fulfillment of the Coming of the Son of Man, giving them the spiritual food of the Word, the revelation of the Word of God, the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, to all the children of God. That is the spiritual food for the children of God in this Last Day, that is the hidden Manna.

Where did God hide the manna through the prophet Moses? He said to him: “Take the manna, and put it in a golden pot, and put it inside the ark of the covenant.”³¹ Where was the ark of the covenant? In the most holy place.

It is in the Most Holy Place of the spiritual Temple of Christ, which is the Age of the Cornerstone, where He gives us of the hidden Manna: The hidden Message of all the children of God of past ages. Because none of the children of God of the past ages ate the spiritual food of the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, which revolves around the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Reclaiming Work; because the spiritual food that was being eaten in the seven ages was the spiritual food of the First Coming of Christ as the Lamb of God dying on Calvary’s Cross and thus cleansing us from all sin. That is the spiritual food that has been eaten during the Dispensation of Grace in the seven ages of the gentile Church; but in addition to that spiritual food, for the Last Day, God will be giving us of the hidden Manna.

And He says: “To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden Manna.”³² He gives that spiritual food to the messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone, which is His Angel Messenger, and he shares it with all the children of God in the House of God. That is the Message, the revelation, of the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Reclaiming Work.

And that faithful and wise servant who will be giving that spiritual food to the children of God in the House of God, in the Last Day, is the one who will receive this great blessing. Let’s see what the blessing is:

“Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.”

And what does that entail, what does it all mean? When he is placed over all His goods: he is placed as the steward of his Lord’s goods.

That is why the promise of Revelation, chapter 2, verse 26 to 28, where it says: “To him that overcometh will I give authority over the nations, and he shall rule them (that is, govern them) with a rod of iron, and they shall be broken as a potter’s vessel; even as I also have received of my Father…” The same authority that Jesus Christ has received from the heavenly Father, when He ascended to Heaven victorious and sat on the Throne of God in Heaven; and He said: “All power is given unto me in Heaven and on Earth.”³³

And now, Christ says: “To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne; even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in His Throne.”³⁴ That entails a very great blessing for that person.

It is the position that Saint John the apostle and the apostle James were seeking, and their mother was helping them; but Jesus said to them: “To sit on my right hand and on my left hand is not mine to give, but to those to whom it is prepared by the Father.”

That position is prepared to be given by the heavenly Father (to whom?) to the Two Olive Trees; those are the ones who occupy that position. It is the ministries of Moses and Elijah that will be occupying that position. And those ministries will be in the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ manifested by the Holy Spirit.

Now, we can see that for this end time there is a great blessing for the Angel Messenger, the faithful and wise servant in the House of God, in the Age of the Cornerstone, who will be feeding the hidden Manna to all the sons and daughters of God; he will be feeding them the Message of the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Reclaiming Work, coming with His Angels.

“For the Son of Man shall come in the glory of His Father with His Angels, and then He shall reward every man according to his works.”³⁵ All this revelation will be given to the children of God. Where? In the House of God, which is the Church of Jesus Christ, in the stage of the Age of the Cornerstone.

That Message, that spiritual food, that revelation wasn’t given to the children of God in past ages, because it corresponds to the children of God of this end time, in the Age of the Cornerstone.

And receiving that Word, that Message, we are eating the spiritual food, the ration of our age and of our dispensation: the spiritual ration of the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom. And so we are well fed, with that spiritual food, to thus receive that faith to be transformed and raptured and taken to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Heaven.

To go to the Marriage Supper in Heaven and be there, we must first be eating here, in the House of God, the spiritual food that Christ will be giving us through His Angel Messenger. That is why He knocks at the door and calls; He calls and thus He invites those who are to eat with Him in this end time, in His House, the spiritual food that through His Angel Messenger He will be giving us; to then be transformed and taken to the House of our heavenly Father, to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.

Now we can see what a great blessing there is in this end time.

And now, we are living in a time when the Door, the Door of the Dispensation of Grace, will be closed; that Door will be closed, that Door of the East will be closed.

And for this end time Christ tells us in, let’s say in two parables, that this Door will be closed.

In the parable of the ten virgins, chapter 25 of Matthew, verse 10 to 13, it says:

“And while they went to buy (that is, while the fatuous or foolish virgins went to buy oil)…”

The oil represents the Holy Spirit. They were going to seek the Holy Spirit; because, although they were professing Christians, they hadn’t received the Holy Spirit; and therefore, they weren’t born again; and therefore, they weren’t prepared to receive the Bridegroom, and they weren’t prepared to be transformed and raptured; they weren’t prepared for the Marriage, for the union with the Bridegroom (with Christ).

“And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready…”

Those are the wise virgins, who had oil in their lamps: who had believed in Christ as their Savior, had washed away their sins in the Blood of Christ and had received His Holy Spirit; and therefore, they had been born again and were in the House of God, in the age they were allotted to live in: they were there, in the Age of the Cornerstone.

“And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.”

The Coming of the Bridegroom is the Coming of the Son of Man, and it is as in the days of Noah; and it is required to be in the House to which He will come; and that is the House where the faithful and wise servant will be with all the sons and daughters of God, giving them the spiritual food in time: The Word relevant to the Last Day, to the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom.

It is there, to His House, that the Lord comes; and it is there, in His House, that we receive His blessing. It is there, in His House, that the faithful and wise servant of the Last Day will be; as was the faithful and wise servant of every age, the messenger of every age, where was he giving spiritual food? In the House of God, which is the Church of Jesus Christ. And where will the faithful and wise servant of the Last Day be, the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ, making known all these things which must happen soon? In the House of God, in the Age of the Cornerstone, in the upper part of the House.

And just as Christ spoke through every angel messenger in every age, He would be speaking through His Angel Messenger in the Age of the Cornerstone. That is why the call of Christ through His Angel Messenger is: “Come up hither.”³⁶ Where to? To the Age of the Cornerstone. And it is there where Christ speaks to us, through His Angel Messenger, all these things that must happen soon, to be prepared to be transformed and taken to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Heaven.

Before going to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Heaven we have to be in the House of God, in the age that corresponds to us to live, eating the spiritual food of the Word of God relevant to our time; because “man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God.”

And the Word that has gone forth from the mouth of God for each age is that which has gone forth through the messenger of each age. And for this time there is Word of God, Word of Jesus Christ, spiritual food, for the children of God in the House of God, in the Age of the Cornerstone, through His Angel Messenger, the faithful and wise servant of the Last Day.

We have now seen the call to all who will be dining in the House of God in this Last Day; dining, eating, the spiritual food of our time: the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, which revolves around the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Reclaiming Work; to then be transformed and be taken to the House of our heavenly Father, to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Heaven, where we will receive the rewards for all our work performed in the House of God, in the Church of Jesus Christ.

It is for the labors that we have carried out in the House of God that we will receive the rewards. And that is why Christ said: “Lay up for yourselves treasures (where?) in Heaven.”³⁷ How do we lay up treasure in Heaven? By working here in the House of God; because the House of God is the Kingdom of God, it is the Kingdom of Heaven.

Just as Christ said that He wasn’t of the world, but that He came into this world (He said: “I came out from God, and I return to God”)³⁸, do you know something? That Jesus praying for us, including all His children of all ages, He said: “You are not of the world, even as I am not of the world.”³⁹

We have descended from Heaven to be in these mortal bodies for a season; to make contact with Jesus Christ, the Eternal Life, in His Program of Redemption; to obtain the forgiveness of our sins, and receive the new birth by receiving His Holy Spirit, and thus receive a theophanic body of the sixth dimension in His Program of Creation, of which Jesus Christ is the beginning of God’s Creation,⁴⁰ of that New Creation.

It is a New Creation that is being carried out by the second Adam: it is through divine creation that we are born into the Kingdom of God and obtain the theophanic body of the sixth dimension. And in the Last Day, in addition, we will receive the eternal and glorified physical body, equal to the body of Jesus Christ.

We who are alive by being transformed, and the dead in Christ by being resurrected, will all obtain the new body, the eternal body, which God designed and predestined for each one of you and for me also, and for all the born again believers in Christ, who have become part of His Church in the age in which they have lived.

He designed since before the foundation of the world the eternal body that we are to have; but first He gave us this temporary body, to pass through the Earth in this pilgrimage; but then He will give us the new body, the new body in which we will live with Him as kings and priests in His Kingdom, ruling with Him for the Millennium and for all eternity.

Now, we are in these bodies going through a unique experience, which will not be repeated. Therefore, take advantage of the time serving Jesus Christ our beloved Savior, making good use of our time; and thus working in the Work of Christ and thus storing up treasures in Heaven, which we will enjoy when we are in the new body.

People lay up treasures here on Earth to enjoy them in the earthly body, and all of a sudden the earthly body dies and they couldn’t enjoy their treasures; and they can’t take them with them when they die.

But we, all our work done in the Work of Christ will follow us; and He will give the corresponding rewards for all that we have worked in His Work, in His Kingdom; for your work in the Lord is not in vain, said Saint Paul,⁴¹ for we will receive a righteous reward.

“And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.” (Revelation 22, verse 12)

See that there will be rewards? And I wish the rewards, the greatest rewards, for all of you; and for me too. I am not going to leave, you are not going to leave me out; neither am I going to leave you out.

I have told you how to work in the Kingdom of God and how to store up treasures in Heaven. Now it is up to you to work and store up treasures in Heaven; and it is also up to me to work and store up treasures in Heaven; where there are no thieves and where there is no devaluation. So, nothing that you store there is devalued; rather you get greater blessings every day. It is the place where one invests and the investment is multiplied.

Now we can see where we can secure our treasure. And where our treasure is, there is where our heart is; and where our heart is, there is our treasure.⁴² And our treasure is in the Kingdom of God, and our heart is in the Kingdom of God; that is where we want our treasure, to enjoy it for the Millennium and for all eternity as kings and priests in the Kingdom of Christ.

Now we have seen what a great blessing there is: to hear the Voice of Christ knocking at the door of every son and daughter of God. It is at the exit. If He is at the door, He is on the outside, the outside of the seven gentile Church ages; and we are living in that time.

He is no longer in any of the seven gentile Church Ages; He is higher up: He is in the Age of the Cornerstone.

And He calls us for that great spiritual meal or supper in the House of God in the Age of the Cornerstone, which the faithful and wise servant serves; that great Meal or Supper of the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, which revolves around the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Reclaiming Work. That is the spiritual food for God’s elect in the Age of the Cornerstone.

“Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.” We can feed our body with bread, with “frijón” [feijão] (which are beans for us over there, in other places) and rice and vegetables, but that is only for the physical body; but your soul needs a very special food. That is the Word of God, which comes from the mouth of God: it comes from the messenger of God for the time in which the person is living.

And now, the Word that comes out of the mouth of God for the first age was the Word that came out through the messenger of the first age, which was Saint Paul. And the Word that comes from the mouth of God, from the messenger of God, for the Age of the Cornerstone is the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom; that is the spiritual food for our soul for this end time. And with that spiritual food is that we receive that revelation, that faith, to be transformed and raptured in this end time.

First we eat here the spiritual food, in the House of God, we eat the Supper of the Word of God; and then we will go to the great Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Heaven, to the House of our heavenly Father; and we will go with the new body, with the eternal body.

And we will be there for three and a half years, in the great Marriage Supper of the Lamb, while the Earth goes through the great tribulation; we will be feasting with Christ, in eternal bodies. And then we will return to Earth to begin with Christ that Millennial Kingdom, where we will be as kings and as priests ruling with Christ our Savior.

We are living in the most important time of all times. This is the time where we are dining with Christ, eating with Christ, in the Age of the Cornerstone, in the House of God; where the faithful and wise servant, who is the Angel of Jesus Christ, the faithful and wise servant of the Last Day, who is a dispensational prophet, serves us the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, the spiritual food for our soul; just as every angel messenger of every age served them the Message of his age, which revolves around the First Coming of Christ as the Lamb of God.

Now we can see where we are in this end time: we are in the Age of the Cornerstone, dining with Christ the spiritual food of this time.

We are in the House of God being fed by the faithful and wise servant; that is the one who receives the great blessing; and he will share it with all the elect of God who will be dining in this end time, in the House of God, the spiritual food that he will be serving them.

And that is the faithful and wise blessed servant, whom his Lord will place over His House; which we will see in more detail this afternoon under the subject: “He who sits on the Throne with Christ” or “with the Lord Jesus Christ,” that is, “THE OVERCOMER WHO SITS ON THE THRONE OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.”

It is a promise of Christ: “To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my Throne; even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in His Throne” (Revelation, chapter 3, verse 21).

And the same thing that the Father has done with Jesus, by sitting on the Throne of the Father in Heaven, is what Christ will do with the faithful and wise servant, with the Overcomer, which is the Angel of Jesus Christ, in the Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone. Which we will see in more detail in the next activity of the afternoon (2:00 p.m. is it?), where we will see the great blessing that there is for the Angel of Jesus Christ and those who will be with him, in this Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone.

We have seen on this occasion our topic for this morning’s activity: “JESUS CHRIST SEEKING AND CALLING THOSE WHO WILL DINE WITH HIM.”

Now we can see that we dine with Him in His House, in His Church, the spiritual food of His Word, the Message relevant to our time; and then we will go to the great Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Heaven, where we will dine with Christ and with all the saints who will go to that great Supper. At that great Supper will be the Old Testament saints too. It will be a very great feast in Heaven.

We have now seen our subject for this occasion: “JESUS CHRIST SEEKING AND CALLING THOSE WHO WILL DINE WITH HIM.”

May the blessings of Jesus Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, be upon you all and upon me also; and may the number of those called and sought for to dine with Christ in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, and those who will also then dine with Christ at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Heaven, soon be completed, and may soon the dead in Christ be resurrected in eternal bodies and we who are alive be transformed. In the Eternal Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen and amen.

May God bless you, and may you continue to have a day filled with the blessings of Jesus Christ our Savior.

“JESUS CHRIST SEEKING AND CALLING THOSE WHO WILL DINE WITH HIM.”
