Very good morning kind friends and brethren present and to everyone that are in other nations. May the blessings of Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, be upon you all, and upon me too. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen On this occasion we read in Galatians, chapter 3, verses 23 onwards, it says: “But before faith came, we were kept under the law, shut up unto the faith which should afterwards be revealed. Wherefore the law was our schoolmaster to bring us unto Christ, that we might be justified by faith. But after that faith is come, we are no longer under a schoolmaster. For ye are all the children of God by faith in Christ Jesus. For as many of you as have been baptized into Christ have put on Christ. There is neither Jew nor Greek, there is neither bond nor free, there is neither male nor female: for ye are all one in Christ Jesus. And if ye be Christ’s, then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” May God bless our souls with His Word and allow us to understand It. “THE SEED OF ABRAHAM.” That is our subject for this occasion. To be Abraham’s seed is a great blessing. The apostle Paul says that if we are Christ’s “then are ye Abraham’s seed, and heirs according to the promise.” In order to be able to understand of how a person possibly be Abraham’s seed and doesn’t even know that he is Abraham’s seed, and the apostle Paul is saying that everyone who is in Christ, all the believers in Christ, everyone that is of the faith in Christ and of Christ’s faith, are Abraham’s seed. Through the Scripture the apostle Paul speaks, pointing out that those of faith, Christ’s faith, are Abraham’s children; chapter 3, verse 6 to 7, says: “Even as Abraham believed God, and it was accounted to him for righteousness. Know ye therefore that they which are of faith, the same are the children of Abraham (in other words, Abraham’s seed).” Also through the Scripture the apostle Paul says, in Hebrews, speaks about Abraham and Abraham’s seed. In chapter 7 of Hebrews, verse 11, and onwards, says: “If therefore perfection were by the Levitical priesthood, (for under it the people received the law,) what further need was there that another priest should rise after the order of Melchisedec, and not be called after the order of Aaron? For the priesthood being changed, there is made of necessity a change also of the law. For he of whom these things are spoken pertaineth to another tribe, of which no man gave attendance at the altar. For it is evident that our Lord sprang out of Juda; of which tribe Moses spake nothing concerning priesthood. And it is yet far more evident: for that after the similitude of Melchizedec there ariseth another priest, Who is made, not after the law of a carnal commandment, but after the power of an endless life. For he testifieth, Thou art a priest for ever after the order of Melchizedec.” Now, we find that there is seed of Abraham, lineage of Abraham; we also find that there is a divine priesthood, a priesthood which is not of Aaron, but of Melchizedek, of which Paul says that Jesus Christ is the High Priest of the order of Melchizedek. Therefore, there are things which we read in the Scripture that sometimes we might not understand, which are true though we may not understand them, because a true it’s not what you can understand; it doesn’t mean that because it is not understood, it is not a truth. Now, God the creator of Heavens and Earth, and before God created heavens and Earth, what did He do? Where was He, and from where all creation came from? It came from God; and the Scripture says in Hebrews, chapter 11, verse 1 to 3, that that which is seen was made of that which was not seen. Before this physical creation was seen, God created an invisible one; the invisible creation is first, and thereafter from there the visible comes forth. The Scripture says that God created man unto His image, He had said: “Let us make man after our image, after our image and likeness.” Genesis, chapter 1, verse 26 and onwards, says: “And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.” He created man, the human being, after His image, and He had said that He would make him after His image and likeness; He first creates him after His image, this is; in angelical body; and then in chapter 2, verse 7, He gives him the physical likeness, and it says: “And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.” Then we find that man appears on Earth in a body of flesh, created, that body formed, from the dust of the earth, but before that he was already in the image of God, in angelic body. God’s image is His angelic body is called the Angel of the Covenant, a theophanic body from another dimension, that is, a man of another dimension called the Angel of God or Angel of the Covenant, through whom God carried out the entire creation; it is also called the Word that was with God and was God and created all things (John, chapter 1, verses 1 and onwards). And then that Word was made flesh and dwelt among us, and it is there that the likeness of God comes forth when the Word was made flesh; just as when Adam was in angelical body, theophanic body, in God’s image, then he was made flesh when God took dust from the earth and created a body for him. Thereafter from that physical body He took out a rib and made a help meet for Adam, a companion, in which body He placed the feminine spirit which was in Adam, because before that they were together; Adam was male and female, man and woman. And God separated the feminine spirit from the masculine spirit and He place it in another body that He created, which God formed, from a part, from a rib, of Adam, in order for Adam to reproduce himself on this Earth according to the Divine Program; the reproduction was established to be carried out, but everything has to be according to the divine Order. Everything regarding the creation of the universe in which the scientists are interested, and for that reason they are carrying out studies to discover the origin of creation, and we all know that the origin of creation is God: God through His Spirit, which is His angelic body called the Angel of the Covenant or Angel of God. It is simple to know the origin of the creation, you read it in the Bible and there you find it: “In the beginning God created all things,” there is the origin of creation and the One who originated it. How was it done? Through the Word that was with God and was God and created all things, and without Him nothing that was made, was made, “everything was created through Him and for Him.” Hebrews, chapter 1, verses 1 to 3, says: “God who at sundry times and in divers manners…” we will read here directly: “God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets.” How does God speak to the people? Through a man, through a prophet. A prophet has both consciences together and that’s why while he is awake he can see other dimensions and can hear God’s Voice and can see God in His theophanic body, His angelic body. Many people saw God from Genesis and onwards, but also John, chapter 1, verse 18, says: “No man hath seen God at any time, the only begotten which is in the Bosom of the Father, He hath declared Him, He has made Him known.” Then what Adam, also Abel, and also the rest of the prophets of God saw, was God in an angelic body. Of course: they saw God in a theophanic body, a theophany, called the Angel of God or Angel of the Covenant. That is the Holy Spirit, because a spirit is a body of another dimension, and that’s why on different occasions, and those who saw Him said: I have seen God face to face and my soul was preserved,” says Jacob in Genesis, chapter 32, verses 24 to 32, and that’s why he called the place where he met the Angel of God, Peniel. It is because the Angel of God which is the Holy Spirit, is God’s image, God’s angelical body; just as the image of each individual is his spirit which is a body of another dimension, and that’s why when the person dies, what dies is his physical body, but his spiritual body doesn’t die at that moment, his spiritual body is his image, the image of the person. The human being doesn’t love another person, it doesn’t have affection whether good or bad for someone else, in his body, but rather it is in his spirit, and he doesn’t plan, he doesn’t reason with the body, it is with the spirit; for reasoning is one of the senses of the spirit, for the spirit has five senses and consequently the person reasons through the senses of the spirit. Imagination is also another sense of the spirit of the person, and that’s why he imagines things which he materializes thereafter, he carries them out, plans things, in other words, he visualizes them, he visualizes things. It also has memory, which is another sense of the spirit; that’s why when the person loses his physical body which is called: death, the person carries on living in the dimension of the spirits, whether he goes to Paradise, to Heaven, if he has stayed with the Word of God, serving God, or else he goes to another place where those who did not serve God go to; those who don’t serve God go to another place. Jesus Himself said in the parable of the rich man and Lazarus the beggar, one went to hell, the rich man, and the beggar went to Paradise, to the Bosom of Abraham. We are here on Earth to go through a trial stage, as Israel was in the wilderness for forty years going through a trial stage, and in that trial stage everyone would prove whether he would serve God or would not serve God; and the person has to remain steadfast serving God, as people say: in the good times and in the bad times. In Deuteronomy, chapter 8, verse 1 onwards, it says: “All the commandments which I command thee this day shall ye observe to do, that ye may live, and multiply, and go in and possess the land which the LORD (in other words, the eternal One, Jehovah, the Lord) sware unto your fathers. And thou shalt remember all the way which the LORD (in other words, the eternal One, Elohim, the Lord) thy God led thee these forty years in the wilderness, to humble thee, and to prove thee, to know what was in thine heart, whether thou wouldest keep his commandments, or no. And he humbled thee, and suffered thee to hunger, and fed thee with manna, which thou knewest not, neither did thy fathers know; that he might make thee know that man doth not live by bread only, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of the LORD (that is, the eternal One) doth man live.” Forty years of trials; and so it is for every human being, he has a period of time on this Earth to be tried, if he is going to serve God or not, because in eternity the Kingdom of God will cover the whole planet Earth and those who will serve God, will live, which proved, on the days they lived, that they would serve God eternally; if one is faithful in the little, God will place him in the many things, because he will also be faithful in the many things. But if in the little, which is this life that is lived for a few years, and with not much comfort, because there are many problems in the earthly life, not only in the nations as nations but also in the individual, physical problems, family problems, in other words, it is a stage as the one the Hebrew people went through for forty years in the wilderness, for to enter thereafter into the Promised land. Those who rebelled against God died in the wilderness. And now, it is important for us to know why we are on this Earth and to know where we came from and where we are going to: we have come from eternity, we were in the mind of God and therefore we were genes of the divine thought. Through time we find Adam and Eve and we find that when they sinned they lost the right to eternal physical Life they had, but they lost it when they sinned, and consequently all the seed of Adam and Eve lost the right to live physically eternally. And this earthly and temporary life we have, we inherit it from Adam and Eve, it was the only thing left to them: temporary life, and consequently: temporary youth, because as years go by our bodies grow old and then death comes, but some die of natural death, others in an accident or due to health problems; but despite all that this life is good because it gives us the opportunity to make contact with God through God’s manifestation through His Spirit in the midst of His people to call and gather together those who would enter in the Program of Redemption, of Salvation. All this was reflected in the sacrifices which were carried out from the time of Adam until the time where the sacrifice was taken away from the temple in Jerusalem. There will be a means, a way, for the human being to be redeemed, which was already reflected; these sacrifices of the Old Testament are type and figure of the Sacrifice that the second Adam, the Messiah, Jesus Christ, would carry out on Calvary’s Cross. In order for God to carry out that Sacrifice, He had to blind His own children: the Hebrew people, so that they wouldn’t see that that was the Messiah. Thanks God for the death of Christ on Calvary’s Cross. Even until today Israel as a nation has not seen and will not be able to see until a certain time that Jesus is the Messiah that had to come to carry out the Sacrifice of Atonement for sin as it was prophesied. Therefore, no one should be angry against the Hebrew people for what happened, because it had to happen in order for the Sacrifice of Atonement for the sins of Israel and for the sins of every human being to be carried out. Isaiah, chapter 53, verses 3 and onwards, so not to read to much, it says: “He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted. But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD (in other words, the eternal One, the Lord) hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.” Remember that in the sacrifices; for instance, of the kid-goat, the atonement on the tenth day of the seventh month of every year in the feast of the Atonement, the kid-goat of atonement and the other kid-goat, the escape goat upon which the sins of the people were confessed by the high priest, that kid-goat would carry the sins of the people far away; all that is type and figure of Christ who had to die carrying our sins, bearing our sins, and carrying them far away, in other words, bringing them back to the one who originated sin, which was the devil, Satan or Lucifer, as you wish to call him; for the Blood of Christ disintegrates sin and consequently brings it back to its origin and originator, which is the devil. The Hebrew people was reconciled with God and were at peace for one year, the next year the sacrifice of atonement had to be carried out again, because the sacrifices of animals are not perfect, because animals have no soul, they only have body and spirit, but no soul. It is the human being that has soul: God made the human being living soul. And now, that’s why the human being was made into the image and likeness of God, the human being is the greatest thing of creation; which is why the likeness of God is a human body called Jesus, who bore our sins, God placed upon Him the sin of all the human beings, and He had to die because of our sins. If He did not die, all the human beings had to die because that time it was a time of divine judgment for the human race, “except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth remains alone: but if it falls into the ground and dies, it bringeth forth much fruit,” many sons and daughters of God, Christ the corn of wheat would bear, which and from which the plant of wheat would come forth, which is His Church, through which He would reproduce Himself in many corns of wheat, in many sons and daughters of God. He is the second Adam and consequently His Church is the second Eve. A new race, a race with eternal Life is being created, of which Jesus Christ is the first, He is the head and He is the One reproducing Himself in many sons and daughters of God, children who first obtain the image of God, which is the angelic body, the spiritual one; when they receive the Holy Spirit they are receiving a spiritual body in the creation of this new race with eternal Life which comes through the second Adam which is Jesus Christ and who is also the Son of David. Therefore, the House of David, the family of God, which is being formed, created, and of which the Scripture says that “Christ with His Blood has cleansed us from all sin and has made us kings and priests unto our God and we shall reign with Christ for a thousand years,” it is a new race with eternal Life, they are sons and daughters of God which Adam and Eve had to bring into life, but because of the problem there, they have been coming into life since the days of Jesus Christ until now. And inasmuch as Jesus Christ after the flesh is a descendant of king David, because He was born through a Virgin named Mary, a virgin descendant of king David and consequently of the tribe of Judah, and consequently in fulfillment of Isaiah, chapter 7, verse 14: “Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel (Immanuel, which translated is: God with us).” And that’s how God’s likeness came forth on this planet Earth as a descendant of king David and consequently as a Jew, and it is a blessing for Israel that the second Adam would appear with Jewish or Hebrew nationality, and as descendant of king David, He is God’s beloved, the David. Remember that after king David, the name David became the title name also of the king descendant of David which would be ruling in each period of time, just as Cesar which thereafter became a title name of the different Roman Emperors, although their names of birth of each one of them was a different one, but the title name was Cesar; as in Egypt: while the empire was there in Egypt, the title of king, of the emperor, was: Pharaoh. And now, the generation of the first Adam we find it in the Bible, and the generation of the second Adam are the believers in Christ in each stage of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, which had different stages; for instance we had back there the generation of the apostles, we also had the generation of Paul in Minor Asia, and so on and so forth we have different generations of Christianity, we have different generations of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ. We have the generation of the stage of Ireneus, we have the generation of the stage of Martin, we have the generation of the stage of Columba, we have the generation of the stage of Luther, we have the generation of the stage of Wesley, we have the generation of the Pentecostal stage or stage of the Rev. William Branham; they are different generations of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ where God has called and has gathered together everyone who would enter to become part of His Church, those who would receive Christ as Saviour in each of those stages. And that is also reflected in Jesse and the sons of Jesse, who had eight sons, eight generations, and from the eighth generation emerged, came forth, God brought to earthly life, the one who would be after God’s heart, the beloved: David, which means: Beloved, who would also be a prophet, because David was a prophet and therefore, him being after God’s heart, God would transmit the thoughts of His heart to David’s heart, and David would carry them out. He was God’s anointed as king over Israel, Samuel the prophet anointed him. Saul was rejected by God because he didn’t do according to the will of God. Saul was also a king in the permissive will of God; David was a king in God’s perfect will. Saul was a king after the people’s desire, who asked for a king. David was a king given by God. And now, through the different stages of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ among the gentiles has had seven generations, and now, this end time pertains to the eighth generation of the sons and daughters of God, of Christ, the Son of David, the second Adam. The final generation, which will be the eighth generation, it will be the one in which the promises pertaining to the end time will be materialized, and it will be the generation where the Dispensation of the Kingdom will be interlaced with the Dispensation of Grace; and where Israel will interlace with the program God will be carrying out in the midst of the eighth generation of sons and daughters of God which come through the second Adam and the second Eve, which come from Jesus Christ, the Son of David. In this end time where this eighth generation is coming forth and where the Coming of the Messiah as King of kings and Lord of lords will be fulfilled, as Son of David, and it is there where the blessing will come, not only for the believers in Christ, but also for the Hebrew people, for the Jews. The believers in Christ which form the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ are linked to the heavenly things, to the heavenly blessings, and they have been born again, borne in the Kingdom of God, into Life and with eternal Life; it is a new race which God is creating, which all the believers in Christ belong to. This new race has already salvation in its soul, has already received the redemption of the soul, has eternal Life, and it is lacking the redemption of the body, the adoption of the body, which is the glorification of the body, which is to receive physical eternal Life, for which there will be a transformation for those who are alive: they will be changed in their atoms and consequently they will have eternal, immortal, young, glorified bodies, like the glorified body that Jesus Christ has, which is as young as when He ascended to Heaven. And the believers in Christ who died will be resurrected in eternal bodies, immortal bodies, to live young in the Kingdom of God throughout eternity. This race with eternal Life will be helping Israel in every moment, because to help Israel means to help mankind. If there is peace in Israel, there is peace in the whole world; if there is war in Israel, there is war in the whole world. Therefore, the promises for the Messianic era are of peace for Jerusalem and for the whole of Israel, and from there peace for all the nations will come forth, because the Messiah the Prince, the Son of David, will rule, will reign, over Israel and over all the nations, His Kingdom will be worldwide; and since His Throne will be in Jerusalem and the Federal District will be the entire territory of Israel, then it is a Jewish Kingdom that will take place, which will be operating at world level. The apostle Paul says in Romans, chapter 4, verse 13: “For the promise, that he should be the heir of the world (notice, the promise is that Abraham or his seed will be heir to the world, Abraham’s seed), was not to Abraham, or to his seed, through the law, but through the righteousness ….” And now, Abraham’s seed, which is the Messiah as Abraham’s Son, will sit in the Throne of David, will restore the Kingdom of David, will rule over the Hebrew people and over all the nations. Therefore, the administration will be from Israel. Therefore, the Jews have a great blessing in the Kingdom of the Messiah. And now, the eighth generation of Christ the Messiah, the second Adam, the Son of David, will be parallel to David as the eighth son, who sat upon the throne. It is for the time of the eighth generation, which pertains to the golden stage of the Church or Age of Cornerstone, that all the blessings pertaining to the Last Day for the believers in Christ, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, and for the Jews, will become a reality. God loves Israel, and God says: “Israel is my son, my firstborn son.” Therefore, Israel is the model, the model people so that all nations be like Israel, and he that blesses Israel will be blessed, and he that curses Israel will be cursed, and this is so for individuals as well as for nations. A wonderful time is coming; wonderful days are coming for the believers in Christ that form the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, and for the Jews. When the moment comes of the resurrection of the dead in Christ in glorified bodies and the transformation of the living takes place, then Israel will understand what happened in the days of Jesus. Zachariah says that there will be weeping in Israel, in Jerusalem, asking: Which wounds are these?” He will explain to them everything that happened and will tell them it was in benefit of Israel and the whole human race, like Joseph in Egypt said to his brothers when he revealed himself to his brothers, he made himself known to them: “Don’t be sad because you sold me, it was God who worked this for the preservation of life.” And for the preservation of human life it was God who led everything for Jesus to be rejected and to be crucified bearing the sins of the human being, and thus the human family would not have to die for its sins. Throughout the entire Bible are the types and figures of everything that would happen. We have to see that there is a heavenly Order and an earthly order, and we have to see that the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ belongs to the heavenly Order and Israel belongs to the earthly order. Both have a great blessing, therefore, both have to love each other and help each other, both are Abraham’s seed. And for this Last day, for this end time, the eighth generation of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ among the gentiles will be full of descendants of Abraham after the flesh also, whether people know it or not, and the percentage of Abraham’s descendants after the flesh that will be in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ in this end time, is not known. If it is fifty percent, is good; if it is seventy five percent is better; if it is ninety percent, even better; if it is ninety nine percent much better; and if it is hundred percent, much better: if it is a hundred percent it will be a Jewish Age, one hundred percent in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ. But it is not necessary to be looking for percentages, looking for numbers, the important thing is to believe in our Lord Jesus Christ and His Sacrifice on Calvary’s Cross as the Sacrifice of Atonement for our sins, so that our sins be taken away, be cleansed with His Blood, and be justified and remain as though we had never sinned, and thus to be part of the Mystical Body of Christ, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, of which Paul says that they are the children of Abraham, Abraham’s seed. It is the seed of God, the descendants of God, according to what Paul says in Ephesians, chapter 2, because a descendant of someone, is a son of that person, and the children of God; they are consequently descendants of God and that’s why they can call Him: “Our Father which art in Heaven.” The Scripture says: “ And you will call me my Father.” And to the not beloved one…” of Hosea, chapter 1, verses 7 to 11, it says: “Where it was said: you are not my people, it will be said to them: You are my people,” and consequently sons and daughters of God. The Church started with Jews, headed there by Jesus Christ Himself, a descendant of king David and heir to the Throne; that’s why the Angel Gabriel when he appeared to the Virgin Mary, says that God has given Him the Throne and that He will sit in the Throne of David His Father and will reign over Israel for ever. Just as Jesus Christ is Abraham’s seed, likewise are the believers in Christ, for Christ has been creating a new race with eternal Life, first spiritual eternal Life, and at the Last Day He will give them physical eternal Life also. “THE SEED OF ABRAHAM.” That is the heavenly seed that comes through Christ, descendant of David and consequently descendant of Abraham. Concerning the physical part of the seed, we live it alone for now, because we will speak on another occasion about the physical part, because the number of the descendants of Abraham physically can be so great that it can even reach a hundred percent. That’s why the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is expecting the Coming of the Messiah as well as Israel is expecting the Coming of the Messiah. On another occasion we will speak about the Coming of the Messiah, which will be very simple, that event; that event is going to be very simple according to the Scripture. We are in the most glorious time of all times. Remember: the eighth generation is linked to the Golden Age of the Church, Cornerstone Age, for the Coming of the Headstone, the Stone not cut by hands, which king Nebuchadnezzar saw and was interpreted by Daniel the prophet in chapter 2, verse 30 to 45 of the book of the prophet Daniel. We are in the most glorious time of all times, the time in which the Spirit of God that left the temple, for there is no longer temple there in Israel, the temple is not there, God’s presence was in the temple upon the Mercy Seat, upon the Ark of the Covenant; the presence of God has left and It’s been traveling through the whole world in the different stages of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, but God’s presence will return to Israel. In the book of Ezekiel, chapter 37, verses 1 to 14, there we find how the Spirit will return to Israel, and then in the same chapter 37, verses 15 to 29 of Ezekiel, is the restoration of the Kingdom of David and the covenant of peace that God will bring to Israel. “THE SEED OF ABRAHAM.” The Messiah according to the flesh is a descendant of Abraham, and the ones that form the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ are descendants of Abraham by the faith in Christ which is carrying out a new creation with eternal Life. “THE SEED OF ABRAHAM.” They are the ones that will hear the preaching of the Gospel of Christ, the faith of Christ will be born in their soul and will receive Him as only and sufficient Saviour, that’s the seed of Abraham that would form Christianity, although other descendants of Abraham according to the flesh have not received Him. If there is someone that has not received Christ as Saviour, you can do it right now and we will be praying for you for Christ to receive you in His Kingdom, and may produce in you the new birth and make you Abraham’s seed through the new birth. In the different countries which are connected through the satellite Amazonas or Internet, you may also come to the Feet of Christ to receive Him as only and sufficient Saviour. We are going to wait for a few minutes while in the different countries people come to the Feet of Christ our Saviour. Christ has much people, much seed of Abraham, in all nations, and He is seeking them in order to place them in His Kingdom. All this mystery of the seed of Abraham will be gradually open until being fully opened for Christianity and for Judaism also. There is a great blessing for the Jews in this end time; that which the Jews are waiting for, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ will see it first, and the Jews will see it in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, and they will say: “This is what we are waiting for,” because the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ will be hearing the great Voice of Trumpet or Final Trumpet which is God’s final message, the message of the Kingdom, and this will give Her faith to be changed and to be carried with Christ to the Wedding Supper of the Lamb; and that final Trumpet or Great Voice of Trumpet is the same trumpet of Isaiah, chapter 27, verse 13, it will be to call and gather the Jews, the Hebrews. There will also be a great gathering of one hundred and forty four thousand Hebrews, twelve thousand of each tribe; so the tribes and the representatives of those twelve tribes that will be present hearing the Great Voice of Trumpet which is the Voice of God speaking to them the message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, the message which is promised for the Last Day, and they will recognize that Voice, that message, at the appointed time. It is for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ to first hear the Great Voice of Trumpet or Final Trumpet to receive faith to be changed and the dead in Christ to be resurrected, which is to receive faith for the physical redemption, and Israel will hear It to receive the physical redemption. See? So, we can see that all that has been promised and that’s what God will be doing in this end time; for instance we have the case (while people are coming to the front in the different countries)…we find in the Scripture a great prophesy that speaks that the law will come out from Zion, and the Law came from Sinai; the written Law upon stones, upon tablets of stone, came from Sinai, where the Angel of God, the Angel of the Covenant, God in His Angel, God in His angelical body, God in Spirit, wrote the Law in tablets of stone, the Law of the Covenant. Bur now God said that there will be a new Covenant, that He will give a New Covenant to Israel and Judah, Jeremiah, chapter 31, verse 31 to 36; that new Covenant comes from Zion, Jerusalem, there started the New Covenant, the Blood of the New Covenant was shed on Calvary’s Cross, and from there the New Covenant came out for Israel and all the nations, and the Blood of the New Covenant is the Blood of Christ shed on Calvary’s Cross according to what Christ Himself says in chapter 26, verse 26 to 29, of Matthew, in the last supper He gives bread to His disciples and says to them: “Eat of it all, for this is my body.” In other words, the bread types the body of Christ, and then He takes the cup of wine and giving thanks to the Father gives to His disciples saying: “Drink of it all, for this is my Blood of the New Covenant for the remission of sins.” The Blood of Christ, the Blood of the New Covenant, is typified in the wine, and all that comes from Zion, from Jerusalem. And Zion in spiritual terms also means or types the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, which is the spiritual Mount of Zion, and there He has been ruling over the life of all the believers in Him, reigning over the life of all the believers. But He is also going to be in the literal, in His Throne, there in Zion, in Jerusalem. So the Law of the New Covenant came out, where from? From Zion, the Law of the first covenant came from Sinai, see? There is no contradiction, and the Word of God, of the Lord, where does it come from? From Jerusalem. The Word of the Lord would come from Jerusalem, it was first preached in Jerusalem and from there it spread throughout all the nations, starting from Jerusalem, Samaria, Judea and all the nations. That is how the preaching of the Gospel of Christ, the Word of the Lord comes out from Jerusalem, you can search for it and find it in Isaiah, and there in Micah, in Micah you will also find something related to it… It is important to know, to understand all these things, and the time which has been allotted to us to live is the most glorious time of all times, the prophetic time where more blessings are promised for all the believers in Christ, the time where many of them which are alive will be able to reach the transformation if that time doesn’t tarry. We are in the eighth generation of the generation of Jesus Christ. Therefore we are closer than what we can imagine; we are so close that we can already see the signs moving everywhere. Micah 4: 2 says: “And many nations shall come, and say, Come, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD (in other words, the mount of God), and to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for the law shall go forth of Zion, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem.” And here it already speaks to us also of the millennium which is coming, where there will be great blessings for all Israel, and speaks to us of the Kingdom of the Messiah, chapter 2 of Isaiah, verse 1 and onwards, says: “The word that Isaiah the son of Amoz saw concerning Judah and Jerusalem. And it shall come to pass in the last days In other words, this is for the end time), that the mountain of the LORD’S house (in other words, the House of the Lord) shall be established in the top of the mountains…” The main head of all the nations, head of all the kingdoms, will be Jerusalem and Israel, in other words, that the Federal District at world level will be Israel, and the Capital Jerusalem; God has promised that if Israel would keep the Word of God, would do according to the will of God, would be head and not tail, but if not, it would be tail and not the head. “… and shall be exalted above the hills; and all nations shall flow unto it. And many people shall go and say, Come ye, and let us go up to the mountain of the LORD (in other words, the Mount of the eternal One, the Mount of the Lord), to the house of the God of Jacob; and he will teach us of his ways, and we will walk in his paths: for out of Zion shall go forth the law, and the word of the LORD from Jerusalem in other words, the Word of the Lord).. And he shall judge among the nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruninghooks: nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any more. See? Because the Kingdom of the Messiah will be a Kingdom of peace, and it will be there that the Messiah will establish the Laws of the Kingdom of the Messiah for all nations, and it will be also there where there will be only one way of believing in God; there won’t be many religions, chapter 14 of Zachariah, verse 9, says: “And the LORD shall be king over all the earth: in that day shall there be one LORD, and his name one.” And that is the victory of the God of Israel, only one God, only one teaching, you mean to say that there will be only one religious teaching? Of course yes, there won’t be many teachings related to God, only one, and it will be coming forth from Jerusalem, because the ministry of Finance, of Economy, and the ministry of Education will be there, and in education the religious part is included, and the rest of the Ministries will also be there, of Agriculture will also be there, the teaching of everything concerning for Israel and all nations will come from there. So it has been appointed in the Kingdom of the Messiah. It says in Habakkuk, chapter 2, verse 14: “For the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the LORD (in other words, of the glory of the Lord, of the glory of the eternal One), as the waters cover the sea.” Isaiah, chapter 11, verse 9, it also speaks like that when it speaks of the Kingdom of the Messiah, chapter 11, verse 9 to 10, says: “They shall not hurt nor destroy in all my holy mountain: for the earth shall be full of the knowledge of the LORD (in other words, of the eternal One), as the waters cover the sea. And in that day there shall be a root of Jesse, which shall stand for an ensign of the people; to it shall the Gentiles seek: and his rest shall be glorious. And it shall come to pass in that day, that the Lord (in other words, the eternal One, Elohim, the Lord) shall set his hand again the second time to recover the remnant of his people, which shall be left, from Assyria, and from Egypt, and from Pathros, and from Cush, and from Elam, and from Shinar, and from Hamath, and from the islands of the sea. And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the four corners of the earth.” That is promised for Israel, and it will be beneficial for all mankind, and of the same thing speaks…Isaiah speaks of this same subject, chapter 27, verse 13, says: “And it shall come to pass in that day, that the great trumpet (see? With great trumpet, that is the Great Voice of Trumpet) shall be blown, and they shall come which were ready to perish in the land of Assyria, and the outcasts in the land of Egypt, and shall worship the LORD in the holy mount at Jerusalem.” The way God will call those that were scattered and outcasts will be with great trumpet, it is the trumpet of the feast of the trumpets of Leviticus, chapter 23, verses 24 and onwards, the feast of the trumpets will become a reality. And we are going to leave it there because all that is linked to the Feast of the Trumpets, which has to do with Israel, and to the Feast of Atonement and then the Feast of the booths or Tabernacles which pertain in its fulfillment to the millennial Kingdom of the Messiah. We are going to pray for the people who have come to the Feet of Christ in different nations, we are going to stand on our feet: Our Father who are in Heaven, I come to You with all these people that have received Christ as Saviour right now. I pray receive them in Your Kingdom, heavenly Father. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. I pray. And now repeat after me this prayer those who have come to the Feet of Christ: Lord Jesus Christ, I heard the preaching of Your Gospel and Your faith was born in my heart. I believe in You with all my soul, I believe in Your Name as the only Name under Heaven given unto men whereby we must be saved, I believe in Your death on the Cross of Calvary as the Sacrifice of Atonement for our sins. I bear public witness of my faith in You and I receive You as my only and sufficient Saviour. I recognize that I am a sinner and I need a Saviour. I pray, forgive my sins and with Your Blood cleanse me from all sin; I receive You as my Saviour, and I beg You to produce in me the new birth, baptize me with Holy Ghost and Fire after I am baptized in water in Your Name. In Your eternal and glorious Name, Lord Jesus Christ I pray, for whom be the glory and the honor forever and ever. Amen. And with our hands raised to Christ, to Heaven, we all say: The Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ has cleansed me from all sin! The Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ has cleansed me from all sin! The Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ has cleansed me from all sin! Amen Those who have come to Christ right now will ask: “When can I be baptized? For Christ said: “He that believeth and is baptized, shall be saved; but he that believeth not, shall be damned.” Inasmuch as you have believed in Christ as your Saviour, you may well be baptized, and may Christ baptize you with Holy Ghost and Fire and produce the new birth in you. In water baptism the person identifies himself with Christ in His death, burial and resurrection. Therefore, you may well be baptized, and may Christ baptize you with Holy Ghost and Fire and may He produce in you the new birth, keeping in mind that water baptism does not take away sins, but it is the Blood of Christ that cleanses us from all sin, water baptism is typological. When the person receives Christ as Saviour, he dies to the world. When the person is immersed in the baptismal waters, typologically is being buried. And when the person is raised from the baptismal waters, he is resurrecting unto a new life, unto eternal Life with Christ in His eternal Kingdom. So you may well be baptized, and may Christ baptize you with Holy Ghost and Fire and produce in you the new birth, and we will continue to see each other eternally in the Kingdom of Christ our Saviour. With us I leave the reverend Jose Benjamin Perez, and in every nation I leave you with the minister concerned to let you know what to do to be baptized, those who have come to the Feet of Christ in different places. May God bless and keep you all. “THE SEED OF ABRAHAM.”
