Good morning, and good afternoon, to those of you present and those in other nations. May the blessings of Christ, the Angel of the Covenant be upon all of you and upon me as well, and may He use us greatly in His Work in this end time, and may the Work of God relevant to this time be carried out, become a reality. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
For me is a great blessing and privilege to be with you on this occasion to share some moments of fellowship with you around the Word of God and His corresponding Program for this end time.
As the Global Ambassador of the Global Embassy of Activists for Peace, I would like to thank all the people who worked in the organization of the first International Judicial Forum: “New Proposals for the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide”, which was carried out at Universidad Libre in Bogota, Colombia. The forum was a complete success, and all of you have a small part in those activities, and therefore you have a part in the success that has been obtained.
The group of panelists consisted of 14 legal experts from seven Latin American countries, and the most important thing is that in this meeting, proposals were consolidated for the protection and defense of the life, dignity, and rights of human beings regardless of their culture, religion, ideology, nationality or ethnicity.
Thanks to the Project Development Council under the coordination of Dr. Camilo Montoya Reyes, to the coordinators from different countries who supported us, the media team, the technical team, and to all the activists who also with their presence supported this event and other project initiatives that I will be carrying out in different countries. The second forum will be held in Argentina during the month of November, in other words, the second International Judicial Forum.
On another note, the 4th International Blood Donation Marathon: “Life is in the Blood – Donating the Sap of Life” will begin during the month of October. I would like to extend the invitation to all the activists to join this effort and support the coordinators from different countries that are in charge of this work.
To all the coordinators, I wish you success. Our goal is to duplicate the outcome obtained from the previous blood drive campaign. This is a very important work, because through blood donation we can give the greatest gift a human being can give to another: life. Donating blood is an act of love and solidarity towards our neighbor.
Next Wednesday, where will we be? Next Wednesday, October 1, we will be at the Aula Magna of Universidad Central of Caracas, Venezuela at 8 am, and we will hold the international conference: “Donating the Sap of Life”, where I will be presenting “The Educational Communication Program for the Formation of a Culture of Voluntary, Habitual, and Safe Blood Donation.” In other words, “The Educational Communication Program for the Formation of a Culture of Voluntary and Habitual Donation of Safe Blood.”
We have much work. We hope to be able to count on the support of all the activists. Success is certain, because everything we do is out of love and with the objective to bring integral peace to the human family. The secret to success is working in favor of the human family.
Therefore, next Wednesday we will be in Caracas, Venezuela, in the Aula Magna of Universidad Central of Venezuela; I will see you there.
For this occasion, we read in First Peter chapter 2, verses 21 to 25, where the apostle Peter tells us, anointed by the Holy Spirit:
“For even hereunto were ye called: because Christ also suffered for us, leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps:
Who did no sin, neither was guile found in his mouth:
Who, when he was reviled, reviled not again; when he suffered, he threatened not; but committed himself to him that judgeth righteously:
Who his own self bare our sins in his own body on the tree, that we, being dead to sins, should live unto righteousness: by whose stripes ye were healed.
For ye were as sheep going astray; but are now returned unto the Shepherd and Bishop of your souls.”
May God bless our souls with His Word and allow us to understand it. Our subject for this occasion is based on the words of the apostle Peter when he says: “Leaving us an example, that ye should follow his steps.”
“FOLLOWING THE FOOTSTEPS OF THE MASTER.”
Following the footsteps of the Master, the traces which are engraved in the Scripture, in the historical truth of Jesus and His life, the years He was on Earth in human flesh, in which He carried out His Messianic ministry of three and a half years.
It is important to follow the steps of Christ, the Teacher of teachers, the Master sent by God whom on one occasion said: “Ye call me Master and Lord: and ye say well; for so I am.” [Saint John 13:13.] Therefore, the Master teaches us the way we must walk, following the footsteps of the Master who said: “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” [Saint John 14:6.] Therefore, we must follow the footsteps of the Master in order to come to the Heavenly Father, and consequently to the Kingdom of God.
He is the only One who can give the human being eternal Life, because there is no life without blood. The physical life is in the blood. That is why God forbade the Hebrew people from eating blood, because life is in the blood, and the blood was used in the sacrifices offered to God; because life is in the blood.
And now, we find that eternal Life is in the Blood of Christ, which He imparts to the believer when he receives Him as his only and sufficient Savior, is baptized in water in His Name, and Christ baptizes him with the Holy Spirit and fire, and produces in the person the new birth: he is born unto eternal Life with Christ in His eternal Kingdom. Remember Christ said: “My kingdom is not of this world.” [Saint John 18:36]
One is born in the Kingdom of Christ, which is not from this world, and therefore the birth in the Kingdom of Christ, the new birth, is not of this world, not like the natural birth we have obtained which is from this world, from the union of our earthly parents.
Now, the new birth of which Christ spoke to Nicodemus in chapter 3, verses 1 to 6 is of the water (the Gospel of Christ), and of the Spirit (the Holy Spirit), and in this manner we are born again, we are born in God’s Kingdom.
Christ said no one can enter into God’s Kingdom if they are not born of the water and of the Spirit. And every human being desires to enter into God’s Kingdom to live eternally.
We must understand that there is no forgiveness, and consequently there is no remission of sins if there is no blood; that is why animal offerings were carried out and the blood was offered in the atonement program.
On the tenth day of the seventh month of each year, the high priest would take the blood to the Most Holy Place and sprinkled the mercy seat with the blood of the goat unto the Lord, and the people who had repented of their sins and had afflicted their soul, having repented for sinning against God were reconciled with God.
Then the other goat, the scapegoat, was taken far, after the high priest having first confessed the sins of the people; because the Messiah, Christ, would take our sins and take our sins far away; which He did when He died on Calvary’s cross. He was buried and He took our sins to the originator of sin, who is the devil, and there in hell, He left our sins with the devil.
It is important to understand these things in order to know what we have to do to obtain what every human being desires: eternal Life.
The only one who has eternal Life to give to the human being is Jesus Christ. There is no other person who can grant eternal Life to a person, there is only One, and it is Jesus Christ, who was represented in the goat for the sin offering unto the Lord, the goat for the Lord and the scapegoat as well. Both goats represent Christ.
He knew God’s program for the Redemption, although His disciples did not comprehend it. They did not comprehend that everything that was represented in the offerings of animals would materialize in Christ dying at Calvary’s cross. But when John the Baptist introduced Christ saying: “Behold the Lamb of God,” he also said: “That takes away the sins of the world,” and in order to take away the sin of the world He had to take our sins, become mortal and die for our sins. The death we had to receive, Christ received it for all the sins of the human race.
And above all, for those written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life, which are God’s firstborn, written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life.
We are on this Earth to follow the footsteps of Christ.
Being that Christ is the Son of God and had a trajectory, Christ’s believers are also sons and daughters of God whose trajectory must be following in Christ’s footsteps. They are the ones who make up the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, whom as a mystical Body of believers also follow the footsteps of Christ from stage to stage, for Christ is in the midst of His Church in Holy Spirit since the day of Pentecost.
He said: “I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.” (Saint Matthew chapter 28, verse 20.) And in Saint Matthew chapter 18, verses 20 says: “For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.” Therefore, Christ has not forsaken His Church, Christ has not forsaken His believers; He is and will always be with His Church.
Since the day of Pentecost, He has been in the midst of His Church in Holy Spirit and He has been manifesting Himself and manifesting His virtues through His Church, and following the footsteps of Christ: the virtues that are in Christ and were seen in His earthly life would also be seen in the life of every believer in Christ and in the life of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ as a mystical Body of believers.
We have the different virtues shown in First Peter and in Second Peter. Second Peter chapter 1, verses 4 to 11, where the apostle Peter tells us… chapter 1, verse 3 and on of Second Peter says:
“According as his divine power hath given unto us all things that pertain unto life and godliness, through the knowledge of him that hath called us to glory and virtue:
Whereby are given unto us exceeding great and precious promises: that by these ye might be partakers of the divine nature, having escaped the corruption that is in the world through lust.
And beside this, giving all diligence, add to your faith virtue; and to virtue knowledge;
And to knowledge temperance; and to temperance patience; and to patience godliness;
And to godliness brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness charity.
For if these things be in you, and abound, they make you that ye shall neither be barren nor unfruitful in the knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.
But he that lacketh these things is blind, and cannot see afar off, and hath forgotten that he was purged from his old sins.”
The virtues of faith, virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, brotherly kindness, and charity are being added and manifested in each individual. These must be manifested in every believer in Christ; which is why we hear the Word of the Lord: “So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.” [Romans 10:17.] “For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” [Romans 10:10.]
That is why it is very important that after a person has received Christ by hearing the Gospel of Christ, he continues hearing the Gospel, the Word of the Lord, so that his faith keeps increasing and it reaches the top; so that he reaches the faith needed to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, so that his faith, and his other virtues as well, reach that of Jesus Christ.
The top, the cornerstone of virtues, is love. Love will never cease to exist, because God is love and He will never cease to exist.
That is why we are alive, because: “God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” [Saint John 3:16.] That is the promise for all the believers in Christ: eternal Life.
When a person reaches the top, reaches divine love, agape love, he has the crown of virtues. Likewise, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ goes through different stages, represented in the different stages through which the human being goes through to obtain the divine nature. And for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ to obtain that divine nature integrally (in soul, spirit, and glorified body), the Church will be glorified, and therefore every believer in Christ will also be glorified; they will attain the image and likeness of Christ.
First the image is received, which is the heavenly body, each believer receives it to receive the spirit of Christ, and then he will receive the physical glorified body in the last day, in the resurrection (if he has departed from this Earth), he will come with Christ in His second coming and Christ will resurrect him in an eternal, immortal, glorified and young body for all of eternity, and those of us who are alive and remain alive until that moment, will be changed. And then we will have the physical likeness of God, which is the glorified body, like the glorified body that Jesus Christ has.
And the Church will also be glorified as a mystical Body of believers. Just like Christ was glorified, the believers in Christ will be glorified and the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ will also be glorified.
That is why these virtues have been manifested in the Church through the different stages of the Church. In the days of Saint Paul: the virtue of faith, faith in Christ and in His Word. Then in the time of Irenaeus, the second stage was represented in virtue. The third stage of the Church in the time of Martin was represented in knowledge, and it obtained knowledge. In the fourth stage of the Church, in the days of Columba, it had temperance; and that stage was represented in temperance, and it was represented in the Church of Thyatira; because the seven Churches of Asia Minor, mentioned in Revelation chapter 1, verses 10 to 11, also represent the seven stages which the Church would go through.
That is in the prophetic sense. That prophetic aspect is very important because the Church had to go through those stages, and after those seven stages, or ages, represented in the seven churches of Asia Minor, the Church must reach… just as the human being has been going up in these virtues from stage to stage, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ has also been going up from stage to stage, because the Church is a spiritual Temple, just like each individual is a spiritual Temple and he grows from stage to stage, like a temple of God, as these virtues are added to the person, as Christ operates them in the person.
And in this way, when Christ adds a stage to His Church, a stage of the Church is carried out with the people that are called for that stage, and the Church grows, it grows from age to age until the Church of Lord Jesus Christ is completed with the last group of elect of God, who will be higher than the seventh age represented in Laodicea (in other words, the seventh age of the Church, the Pentecostal age or stage); just as there was a stage in the time of Saint Paul, another in the time of Irenaeus, another in the time of Martin, another in the time of Columba, another in the time of Luther, another in the time of Wesley, and another in the time of Reverend William Branham (who was the messenger for the Pentecostal age or stage). Then the Church continues going up higher to the Age of the Cornerstone, the Age of Divine Love; that is the stage of Divine Love.
And just as there was a stage through the history of the Church, where seven stages were carried out and there was a victory in every stage, it was the victory of Christ in Holy Spirit in the midst of His Church; and therefore that was a victory for the Church, to be in and to go through each one of those stages.
But for our time, which is the Age of Divine Love, the victory will be the victory of Divine Love, which is promised to be obtained by the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, which will be crowned with the transformation of those who are alive, the resurrection of the dead, and the rapture of the Church by Christ in His coming. His coming to His Church, which is the one awaiting the coming of Christ for Her transformation.
That is what Philippians says in chapter 3, verse 20 to 21:
“For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ…”
And why are we waiting for Him? Saint Paul continues telling us:
“Who shall change our vile body…”
Why will He come? What is the reason we are waiting for Him? To change of our bodies.
“…Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body…” So that it be like His glorified body: young, immortal, eternal and glorified.
With what power will He do this? Christ said: “All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.” (Saint Matthew chapter 28, verse 16 to 20.)
“…According to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.”
He has the power to change our bodies if we remain alive until His coming and the resurrection of the dead in Christ; and He has the power to resurrect the dead in Christ. He proved this by resurrecting Lazarus who had been dead four days.
We are in the fourth stage. The first was the Lutheran stage, the second was the Wesleyan stage, the third stage, the Pentecostal stage, of which Reverend William Branham was its messenger. And now we are in the fourth stage, the stage of the Word, the stage of Divine Love. Just like the first coming of Christ was a manifestation of God’s love towards us: “For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.” [Saint John 3:16.] It was a manifestation of Divine Love to give us eternal Life.
And His second coming will also be a manifestation of Divine Love to give us the transformation of our bodies (if we remain alive), and to give those who died, the resurrection in eternal, glorified, and young bodies to live with Christ for all of eternity.
It is important to follow the steps of Christ, the footsteps of Christ, as mystical Body of believers in order to know where He will be at in this end time. Because He said: “I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.” [Saint Matthew 28:20.]
In chapter 24, verse 27 of Saint Matthew, and also in Saint Luke it tells us something very important that we must not overlook. Chapter 24, verse 27 of Saint Matthew says:
“For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.”
The East, the Middle East (there in the Land of Israel), that’s were the first coming of the Son of man took place, the manifestation of the Son of man: Jesus Christ. And as the lightning comes out of the East: Christ in Holy Spirit moving from the land of Israel to the Gentiles, to Asia Minor, manifested through Saint Paul, speaking to the Gentile people and calling from among the Gentiles a people for His Name. Then He passed onto Europe, where He had five stages or ages, where He was speaking to the Europeans, through the different messengers He sent to His Church, such as Irenaeus, Martin, Columba, Luther, and Wesley.
We can see Christ’s footsteps in Holy Spirit passing from the Land of Israel to Asia Minor among the Gentiles, and then passing from the Asians of Asia Minor to the Europeans, to Europe; Christ walking among His Church through each messenger, in Holy Spirit in each messenger, speaking to His people, calling and gathering His elect from stage to stage.
From Europe He passed onto North America in Holy Spirit, and He manifested himself through Reverend William Branham calling and gathering His seventh age of the Church elects; and from North America the message spreads out to other nations, just as it has happened from stage to stage and age to age.
Up until that point, we have been seeing and acknowledging the footsteps of the Master, the footsteps of Christ, which have been followed by Christ’s believers of each stage of the Church.
Now, for the end time Christ in Holy Spirit will be in the golden stage of His Church, the Cornerstone Age, and it is the Golden Age because it is the age of Divine Love, and God is love. Gold represents Divinity; and it is the stage of the Most Holy Place of His spiritual Temple, His Church. Just like the soul of every person is the Most Holy Place of the person as a spiritual Temple.
That is why we tell people: “Give your soul, your heart, to Christ.” Christ said: “For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul? 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.” Saint Matthew chapter 16, verses 26 to 28.
Therefore, the soul being the most Holy Place of the human being, as a human temple for God… Just as Christ speaking of His body said: “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up,” they thought He was speaking about the literal temple which had been built in 46 years, and they tell Him: “Forty and six years was this temple in building, and wilt thou rear it up in three days?” [Saint John 2:19-21.] But He was speaking about His physical body which would be destroyed, would die, be killed; but on the third day He would resurrect it, He would raise it up, and glorified.
The promise for Christ’s believers is also like that: although our physical body dies, which is a spiritual Temple for God to dwell in Spirit (in our soul), Christ will raise it up, will resurrect it at the Last Day, on the third millennial day, which is the third millennium. For Christ said: “And I will raise them up at the last day.”
For human beings, the Last Day before God is the third millennium, from Christ to the present time, or seventh millennium from Adam to the present time.
It is for this end time, when we have already entered into the Last Day, that at a certain moment the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ will be completed in the stage of Divine Love, in the golden stage of the Church, the stage of the Most Holy Place of that spiritual Temple of believers in Christ; and then Christ would have ended His Work of intercession in Heaven, He will come out of the Throne of Intercession and become the Lion of the Tribe of Judah, King of kings and Lord of lords in His Reclaiming Work, and the Judge of the entire Earth. And He will take the Title Deed, which is the Book sealed with Seven Seals of Revelation chapter 5, He will open it in Heaven and reclaim everything He has redeemed with His precious Blood.
He will resurrect His dead believers in glorified and eternal bodies, and He will change His believers who are alive; and then we will all have physical eternal Life in a new, immortal, incorruptible, and glorified body like the glorified body of Jesus Christ.
That is what our soul cries for: the redemption of the body, which Saint Paul speaks to us about in Romans chapter 8, verses 18 to 39.
The adoption: the redemption of the body which is promised in different parts of the Bible, such as First Thessalonians chapter 4, verses 11 to 18, and First Corinthians chapter 15, verses 49 to 58, where it tells us that at the final trumpet: “For the trumpet shall sound, and the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.”
It is a Divine promise for all the believers in Christ who are going to physically enter into eternity, into physical eternal Life, to never be mortal again; to be eternal people with Christ in His Kingdom.
We already have eternal Life in our souls, we have eternal Life in the Spirit He has given us, the heavenly, theophanic body; and we are lacking the redemption of our body, which is our transformation, the adoption, for all of us to be like Jesus Christ, the Son of God, with immortal, glorified, and young bodies for all eternity.
That is what Christ’s believers will be waiting for at the Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone, the Age of Divine Love, the Golden Age, the Age of the Most Holy Place of the spiritual Temple, which is the Church.
Just like the Most Holy Place is gold: it was wood overlaid with gold, the Most Holy Place, all of the inside, the walls and the floors, everything was gold, and the outside as well. That is how the Golden Age, the Age of the Cornerstone is, because it is the Age of the Most Holy Place of the spiritual Temple of Christ, which is the Church.
And the heart, the soul of the person is gold, because it is the dwelling place of God in Holy Spirit. I don’t mean gold literally, but symbolically. The most important thing you have is your soul, because it is the place for God to dwell in Holy Spirit, which is why “heart” is a synonym for “soul”.
Now, we can see that our soul is part of God, it is part of Divinity; and Divinity is represented in gold, and that is why our soul is also represented in gold, and therefore it is the place God to dwell, here in our souls.
We have seen the trajectory of Christ, the Master, within a person, within an individual, travelling to the inside of a person. First the person hears, in other words, He travels from the outside to the inside, to place Himself in the Most Holy Place, and He begins to manifest Himself in the person from the inside out with those virtues and through the individual, the believer in Christ.
And He also comes to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ from the Land of Israel, entering through the Outer Court, the Holy Place (in the Seven Church Ages, which belongs to the Holy Place of that spiritual temple), and He passes onto the Most Holy Place: the Age of the Cornerstone, the Golden Age, the Age of Divine Love, which is the dwelling place of the Lord at the Last Day; and there and from there He will manifest Himself, He will speak to us and carry out the corresponding Work for this end time.
We have followed the footsteps of Christ in this Biblical exam, Christ’s footsteps from East to West, Christ’s footsteps in His Church, until arriving to our time, to the stage of the Age of the Cornerstone, and we have seen the territories that Christ in Holy Spirit has travelled in the midst of His Church.
Those who in each stage of the Church recognized Christ among them received Christ’s blessings, those who at the last day will recognize the presence of Christ in His Church in the stage that belongs to our time, which is the stage of the Age of the Cornerstone, the Divine Love age, the Golden Age of the Church in which Christ will be carrying out the Work of Divine Love—they will receive Christ’s blessings. They will be hearing the Voice of Christ crying out like when a lion roars, they will be hearing the Voice of Christ (just as it was heard it in each stage through the messenger of each age); they will be hearing It speaking consecutively at this end time.
Those will be the Seven Thunders, the Voice of Christ crying as a lion, speaking to His Church and revealing the mystery of the Seventh Seal at the Last Day. Just as He from age to age spoke to His church in Holy Spirit, through the messenger of each age. For the Last Day, He will have an instrument through whom He will be speaking, and to whom He will speak and say: I will place in his mouth and in his heart, in his soul what he must speak to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ in this end time. He will be speaking to His Church in the stage which belongs to this end time, which is the Age of the Cornerstone.
That is where the Voice of Christ, the Mighty Angel who descends from Heaven will be, crying out as when a lion roars and Seven Thunders uttering their voices. That’s where the Seven Thunders will be uttering their voices, it is there that the Seven Thunders will be revealing the mystery of the Seventh Seal, it is there where Christ in Holy Spirit will be speaking to His Church and giving Her faith to be changed and raptured; and will be taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. As simple as that. It can’t be any simpler. As simple as that.
We are in the correct time to be awaiting the Voice of Christ as a Lion, crying out as when a lion roars and Seven Thunders uttering their voices.
Christ was speaking through each messenger, in each age, in a paused manner. He spoke through Saint Paul, some time passed; and then He spoke through someone else, there was another… through Irenaeus, there was a pause; then He spoke through Martin in Europe, and then there was a pause for a period of time; and then He spoke through Columba, and there was another pause; and then He spoke through Luther, and then there was another pause; and then He spoke through Wesley, there was another pause; and then He spoke through Reverend William Branham, and there was another pause.
Then He will speak in the Age of the Cornerstone, Christ in Holy Spirit speaking through the instrument He has for that time, and He will speak consecutively: Seven Thunders uttering their voices. The Message of the Last Day will be a sevenfold Message that will reveal to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ what she will need to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
It’s the Seven Thunders of Revelation chapter 10, which is the Voice of Christ that will give us faith to be changed and raptured with Christ, to go to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, and enjoy three and a half years of a feast in Heaven, while humanity will go through three and a half years of great tribulation, which will be the second part of the seventieth week of the prophecy of Daniel chapter 9.
Therefore, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ has great promises of great blessings from God to be fulfilled in this end time. We will not be awaiting anything other than what He has promised us for this end time. That is what we will be seeing in the Word of the Lord, and that is what we will believe and what we will be waiting for God to make a reality.
There is also a promise of a Great Tent-Cathedral: that is part of the promises of God for this end time, wherein the Third Pull will be fulfilled, and where there will be great blessings for the believers in Christ. That’s where God will be speaking, Christ will be speaking. He was seen there in the Pillar of Fire, Reverend William Branham saw Him but He was told: “Don’t say anything about this,” of that which was shown to him, what he saw in that small room.
All those things are for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ of the Last Day, the Age of the Cornerstone, the Golden Age of the Church of the Lord, because they were not fulfilled in the days of Reverend William Branham, because they are for the Age of the Cornerstone, for the Last Day, to hear the Voice of Christ and receive the blessings of Christ, and receive that powerful manifestation of Christ in all His fullness and hear His Voice, and receive faith to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
It does not matter where the elect are: there are satellites, the internet, there are TV screens, and no matter where they are, they will receive it wherever they are through the satellite transmissions, through the internet, and in all possible ways.
Therefore, at the Last Day, the believers in Christ will be safe, because they will be hearing the Voice of Christ speaking to us at this end time with that Voice of Trumpet; that Voice of the Seven Thunders crying out as when a lion roars. Because He will change from a Lamb into a Lion, and when He speaks to us as a Lion He will be revealing to us the mystery of the Seventh Seal, and He will also speak to us about the trumpets and plagues and all those things. We will leave that alone until that time.
Therefore, we already know of the things He will speak to us about in the Third Pull, in the fulfilment of the Tent Vision, which all the elect will be working towards, so that the Tent Vision becomes a reality. The believers in Christ of the Last Day who will have ascended to the Golden Age of the Church, the Age of the Cornerstone, will be contributing in many ways.
Christ has worked through His Church from the day of Pentecost until now, because they are His Hands to work in the Divine Program, for Christ to work through every believer in Christ, every member of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; and therefore, it will be the active Church of the Lord that will be working in the Work of the Lord at the Last Day, just like She worked from age to age together with the messenger of each age.
It is important to continue preaching the Gospel of Christ, and to give people the opportunity to receive Christ as Savior when they hear the Gospel of Christ being preached, and the faith of Christ is born in their souls, because faith comes by hearing the Word, the Gospel of Christ, and with the heart, man believes unto righteousness but with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.
Therefore, if a person has not yet received Christ as Savior, and the faith of Christ was born in his heart as he was hearing the preaching of the Gospel of Christ, you now have the opportunity to give public testimony of your faith in Christ, receiving Him as your only and sufficient Savior; you have the opportunity to confess with your mouth to Christ as Savior.
“For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” [Romans 10:10.]
For which you may come to the front and we will be praying for you, and in other countries you can also come to the front to be included in the prayer we will be making for all the people who are receiving Christ as only and sufficient Savior.
Also children ten years of age and older can come to the Feet of Christ so that Christ receives them in His Kingdom, forgives them, and with His Blood He cleanses them from all sin, and they be baptized in water in His Name, and Christ baptizes them with the Holy Spirit and fire, and produces in them the new birth.
The human being makes many decisions in his life, but the most important decision is one. There is only one decision in his life that is important to place him in eternal Life. The other decisions that human beings usually make on Earth do not place them in eternal Life. There is only one decision and that is to receive Christ as only and sufficient Savior; that is the only decision that places the human being in eternal Life, with Christ in His eternal Kingdom.
Christ said: “He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation; but is passed from death unto life.” [Saint John 5:24.]
We all want to live eternally, and we all have the same opportunity to obtain eternal Life through Christ our Savior, who said: “I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.” [Saint John 10:11.]
He also said: “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: and I give unto them eternal life</em>;” Who is the one that gives eternal Life to the human being? The Lord Jesus Christ. “And they shall never perish,” in other words, they will not cease to exist; they will live eternally in the Kingdom of Christ with eternal bodies. “My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all; and no man is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand. I and my Father are one.” Saint John chapter 10, verses 27 to 30.
We know that there is only one way to receive eternal Life, and therefore, to reach God, to meet with God. There is no way to find God without the Blood. We need the Blood of Christ that cleanses us from all sin; and we need of the Life of the Blood, which is the Holy Spirit, so that He gives us eternal Life.
Christ said: “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” Saint John chapter 14, verse 6.)
Never think like some people do, who say that all paths lead to God. Christ said: “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.”
No one can come to God if it’s not through Christ. That is why He said that we will be granted everything we ask the Father praying in His Name. [Saint John 16:23.] To reach God in our prayers we must do it in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Saint Paul said: “And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus.” [Colossians 3:17.] It is because Christ is our intercessor appointed by God for Him to intercede for us before the Father.
God has a lot of people in this city of Valencia and in all the cities and towns of Venezuela, and He is calling them at this end time.
And He has a lot of people in all the countries of Latin America and the Caribbean and He is calling them in this end time, and He has many people in all the nations and He is calling them in this end time. “Today if ye will hear his voice, harden not your hearts.” [Hebrews 3:7.] He is calling you to give you eternal Life.
More people are continuing to come to the Feet of Christ, for which we will wait a few minutes while those who have yet to receive Christ as their Savior come forward, here and in other countries, nations, cities, and other places in Venezuela, and other countries.
Life is the most important thing for the human being. Without life careers, riches, studies, new cars, new houses have no value; nothing has value, because you cannot enjoy it. To enjoy a career you need life, and to live on this Earth you need to have life.
Without life there is nothing, the human being has no existence. That is why life is the most valued thing God has given us. If this life is so important and we love it so much, even more so eternal Life. Eternal life is the greatest thing He gives us, and He does it through Christ our Savior.
That is why He compares us to sheep who hear His Voice and we come to Him, we follow Him, and He gives us eternal Life.
To receive Christ as our Savior and follow His footsteps, to follow Christ every day of our lives, is a matter of eternal Life, because: “No man, having put his hand to the plough, and looking back, is fit for the kingdom of God.” [Saint Luke 9:62.]
More people continue to come, who like you, have heard the Gospel of Christ, the Voice of Christ in their hearts, in their souls, and Christ has awakened their faith, His faith has been born in their hearts; and therefore, they have the opportunity and the right to testify publicly of their faith in Christ, receiving Him as only and sufficient Savior. “For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation.” And thus receive Salvation and eternal Life through Christ our Savior.
More people are still coming, who like you, have heard the Voice of Christ in their souls calling them to place them in His Fold.
Let us stand up to pray for the people who have come to the Feet of Christ on this occasion.
With our heads bowed and our hands raised to Christ, to Heaven, and our eyes closed:
Heavenly Father, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I come to You with all these people who have heard the preaching of Your Gospel and the faith of Christ was born in their soul, and now they are giving public testimony of their faith in Christ and they are receiving Him as their only and sufficient Savior. Receive them in Your Kingdom. I beg you. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
And now those who have come to the Feet of Christ on this occasion, repeat this prayer with me:
Lord Jesus Christ, I have 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 first coming and I believe in Your death on Calvary’s cross as the Atoning Sacrifice for our sins. I believe in Your Name as the only Name under Heaven given unto men whereby we must be saved.
I give public testimony of my faith in You and I receive You as my only and sufficient Savior. I beg You to forgive my sins and cleanse me of all sin with Your Blood, and may You baptize me with the Holy Spirit and fire, and produce in me the new birth.
I want to be born in Your Kingdom, I want to live eternally. Lord, make a reality in my Life the salvation You purchased for me on Calvary’s cross. I beg You in Your eternal and glorious Name, Lord Jesus Christ. Amen and Amen.
With our hands raised to Christ, to Heaven, we all say:
THE BLOOD OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST CLEANSED ME FROM ALL SIN! THE BLOOD OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST CLEANSED ME FROM ALL SIN! THE BLOOD OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST CLEANSED ME FROM ALL SIN! AMEN.
Christ has received you in His Kingdom, He has forgiven you of all your sins, and with His Blood He has cleansed you of all sin. Because you have received Him as your only and sufficient Savior.
You will tell me: “I want to be baptized in water in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, because He said: ‘He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved: but he that believeth not shall be damned.’” Saint Mark chapter 16, verses 15 to 16.
Your question is: “When can you baptize me?” Since you have believed in Christ with all your heart, you may indeed be baptized and may Christ baptize you with Holy Spirit and fire, and produce in you the new birth.
Water baptism does not take away sins, it is the Blood of Christ that cleanses us from all sin, but water baptism is a commandment of Christ, who said: “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved: but he that believeth not shall be damned.”
Christ Himself was baptized by John the Baptist (there, in the Jordan River), he did not want to baptize Him, but Christ told him: “For thus it becometh us to fulfil all righteousness.” And then he baptized Him.
Therefore, being a commandment of Christ, everyone who hears the Gospel has the opportunity to be baptized in water in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, so that Christ may baptize you with the Holy Spirit and fire, and produce in you the new birth.
When a person receives Christ as Savior, he dies to the world; when the minister immerses him in the baptismal waters, he is typologically being buried, and when he is raised from the baptismal waters, he is resurrecting to a new life: unto eternal Life with Christ in His eternal Kingdom. The typology of water baptism in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ is as simple as that.
When a person is baptized in water in the Name of the Lord, that person is identifying himself with Christ, in death, burial, and resurrection of Christ.
We were with Him and in Him since before the foundation of the world; and now we identify ourselves with Him in the baptism in water in His Name.
Therefore, by understanding the symbolism of water baptism, you may indeed be baptized, and may Christ baptize you with Holy Spirit and fire, and produce in you the new birth, and we will continue seeing each other eternally in the Kingdom of Christ our Savior.
May God bless you who are present, those in Puerto Rico, and those in other countries and cities, and we will continue seeing each other throughout eternity in the Kingdom of Christ our Savior.
Continue having a happy evening filled with the blessings of Jesus Christ our Savior.
I leave with you the Missionary Miguel Bermudez Marin to let you know what you must do to be baptized in water in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ; and in each country I leave the minister to do the same and tell you what you must do to be baptized in water in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
With us now, Reverend Missionary Miguel Bermudez Marin here in Valencia, Venezuela, and in each place and country, the minister there.
Continue having a happy evening filled with the blessings of Christ our Savior. Continue following the footsteps of Christ. Never lose track of those footsteps!
May God bless you and keep you all.
