Good morning, kind and beloved brethren and ministers present, and those in other nations, like missionary Dr. Miguel Bermudez Marin in Venezuela, and all the ministers in Venezuela and different congregations; and also those in other countries.
May the blessings of Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, be upon all of you, and may He open the Scriptures to all of us and our understanding so that we may comprehend the Word of God and His Program relevant to our time. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
Greetings to the members of the Project Council of the Global Embassy of Activists for Peace, who are with us on this occasion, and will be with us a few more days to continue working on the projects of the Global Embassy of Activists for Peace.
We also have Dr. Camilo Montoya and his wife Sonia; William Paras and his wife Karita Machado de Paras; we also have Guillermo Rivera from Puerto Rico; my daughter Raquel is also with us; we also have Francisco Guerra who works for peace, and his wife is also with us, Norma Trejos de Guerra; and also Carmen Salzano.
(Who else from…?) Osmin, orchestra director, composer, musician… and a good one! Because there are many musicians, but there are only a few of the good kind, and we have good musicians in all countries.
Raquel, from Colombia, is here with us. And there are also… from Chile as well, a Bolivian-Chilean, Selvita, (is Patricio…?) and Patricio is coming later on. We also have Humberto Perez with us; Oswaldo Aparecido from Brazil; and everyone else who felt the desire to be here in Bolivia and who have come with their hearts open to receive the Word of the Lord, and to enjoy a few days here in Santa Cruz, Bolivia, which they have dedicated to God’s service and to hearing His Word; and those who have come to work on the projects of the Global Embassy of Activists for Peace.
How many of you are up to date with the Embassy’s work? Well, to further update you, we will show you a brief video this morning, where we will be seeing some reports of the recent activities of the Global Embassy of Activists for Peace, which took place in Venezuela and Panama (only from those two countries, and we will see more on other occasions).
[Presentation of videos-documentaries]
You were able to see that we are working with the indigenous peoples, who protect our Mother Earth since past millenniums; in other words, they can teach present civilizations how to take care of our Mother Earth, they do not contaminate her.
If our Mother Earth becomes sick, we become sick; if our Mother Earth has disasters, we receive the consequences. We must defend our Mother Earth, which our bodies have come from, and from which we receive the nourishment for our bodies to continue living.
At the Global Embassy of Activists for Peace, we work for the wellbeing of the human family, whose doors are open for all who desire to be people who want to work for the wellbeing of humanity as Activists for Peace.
Everyone has the opportunity to do so, regardless of their country, skin color, and economic, social, academic, political, or religious status; we all have the same opportunity to defend the rights of Mother Earth and to defend the rights of all humanity.
All the projects of the Global Embassy of Activists for Peace are beneficial to and for the benefit of the human family, and therefore, of our Mother Earth.
For this occasion, we will read in the book of Acts… These are the acts of the Spirit of God, of the Holy Spirit through the apostles, which the book of Acts narrates, which also contains prophecies like the one we will read in chapter 3 of the book of Acts, verses, 18 to 24. Chapter 3, verses 18 to 24, says, of the book of Acts…; a book written by Dr. Luke, the same one who wrote the Gospel according to Luke:
“But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.
Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.
And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:
Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began. For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him shall ye hear in all things whatsoever he shall say unto you.
And it shall come to pass, that every soul, which will not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people.
Yea, and all the prophets from Samuel and those that follow after, as many as have spoken, have likewise foretold of these days.”
Our subject for this occasion, for this Sunday’s Bible study is: “THE DIVINE CYCLE FOR THE RESTORATION OF ALL THINGS.” The restoration of all things back to the beginning, to the way they were established by God.
On one occasion, the Lord Jesus Christ had said to His disciples1:
“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.
Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom (coming where? In His Kingdom).”
Remember that Saint Paul says in Colossians, chapter 1, verse 13, that we have been taken… Let us read it so that you have it just as it was said by Saint Paul. Colossians, chapter 1, verse 13, says… 12 and 13:
“Giving thanks unto the Father, which hath made us meet to be partakers of the inheritance of the saints in light:
Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness, and hath translated us into the kingdom of his dear Son:
In whom we have redemption through his blood, even the forgiveness of sins:
Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.
And he is the head of the body, the church: who is the beginning, the firstborn from the dead; that in all things he might have the preeminence.
For it pleased the Father that in him should all fullness dwell;
And, having made peace through the blood of his cross, by him to reconcile all things unto himself; by him, I say, whether they be things in earth, or things in heaven.
And you, that were sometime alienated and enemies in your mind by wicked works, yet now hath he reconciled
In the body of his flesh through death, to present you holy and unblameable and unreproveable in his sight:
If ye continue in the faith grounded and settled, and be not moved away from the hope of the gospel, which ye have heard, and which was preached to every creature which is under heaven; whereof I Paul am made a minister.”
Now, verse 13, which says: “Who hath delivered us from the power of darkness…” In other words, He has delivered us from the power, the dominion, the rule of darkness, of the kingdom of darkness and ⏤therefore⏤ from the prince of darkness, which is the devil; and He has translated us into the Kingdom of His beloved Son, to the Kingdom of God.
That is why Saint Paul says in Philippians, chapter 3, verses 20 to 21: “For our conversation is in Heaven (is in Heaven); from whence also we look for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ: Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.”
In other words, Christ with His Power, through which He created and sustains all things, with that power, He will transform the bodies of His believers at the Last Day. For which, He said in chapter 6 of John, verses 38 to 40:
“For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me (in other words, the will of the Father).
And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me…”
And what has the Father given to Jesus Christ? The sheep, which are the people written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life, of which Christ said2: “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life (and He tells us) and they shall never perish, neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand. 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.”
Those are people who are written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life since before the foundation of the world. Those people would also be among the gentiles, as there were and continue to be among the Jews. He says3: “And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.”
The fold is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, we are the sheep, and Christ is the Shepherd, who said: “I am the Good Shepherd.” In other words, Christ is the Good Shepherd who would gather all of God’s sheep in the Fold of His Church.
There is no better shepherd for the Father’s sheep. He is the Good Shepherd who shepherds His sheep through His Spirit, just as He shepherded the Hebrew people for forty years in the wilderness. For forty years, Christ fed them manna and meat in the desert, and water on different occasions, because our physical body cannot live without water; at least three fourths of our body is water, just like the Earth as well.
Christ feeds His Church —which is the people of the New Covenant— with spiritual manna: the revealed Word for each stage of His Church; He gives them fresh meat: the Word, the Message corresponding to each age; and gives them the Water of the Holy Spirit to be able to live eternally. They are the people of whom Christ in John, chapter 6, said [verse 38]:
“For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.
And this is the Father’s will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
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.”
In other words, there is a time for the resurrection, to be physically restored to eternal life, which the human being fell from when they sinned at the Garden of Eden.
Christ is the Redeemer, the Savior, He who restores us to eternal life, which first takes place in the spiritual realm when we receive Him as our Savior, and then it will occur physically at the Last Day, in the time of the restoration of all things.
For which, every believer in Christ has been sealed with the Holy Spirit of the promise, for the Day and until the Day of Redemption. Ephesians tells us about this in chapter 1, verse 10 to 14; and also in Ephesians 4, verse 30.
Because everyone sealed with the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit, will be resurrected to eternal life in the Last Day, in eternal, immortal and glorified bodies like the glorified body of Jesus Christ, which is as young as when He ascended to Heaven.
And remember that when Christ resurrected, He appeared… He appeared to Mary Magdalene, He spoke to her; and she did not know that it was Jesus Christ until she heard His words when He called her: “Mary.” In other words, He called her as He did on other occasions. And it’s like when a father, the father of each person, calls the person, calls his son or daughter…, the child knows, recognizes the voice of his father.
And she, who recognized the Voice of her Lord (of her Master, and she calls Him Master), she was surprised; but physically she did not recognize Him. When she saw Him the last time, she had seen him all bruised, bleeding, and in a sad condition. And now she sees that young man and she thought He was the keeper of the cemetery, but when she heard His Voice, she knew He was Jesus Christ who had resurrected; and since a resurrection means glorified, when the believers in Christ are also resurrected in eternal, immortal, and young bodies, their relatives will not recognize them until they hear their voice speaking to them, as they had heard them when they were here on Earth with their nephews, nieces, sons and daughters.
We cannot overlook that what Jesus said in John, chapter 10, verse 1 and on is important, He said:
“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.
But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.
To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.
And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.”
When Christ joined the two walkers —disciples of Jesus Christ who were going to Emmaus— they also did not recognize Him; and Christ said to them: “What are you discussing with each other?”; and they said to Jesus: “Are you a foreigner?”, in other words: “Are you here as a tourist and that is why you do not known the things that have happened?”; and they begin to tell him what happened to Jesus; and they were with Him! They explained to Him, and Christ tells them that they are slow of heart, in other words, they were filled with unbelief to believe what the prophets and the Psalms had said regarding the One who died on Calvary’s Cross.
And when He spoke those words to them, they reached their soul, and it was like a fire burning in their hearts; but they still did not recognize Him. They may have asked themselves: “Who is this man? It seems He has read the Bible a lot, He knows a lot about the Bible. He speaks about the things we have read.”
When they reached *Bethany, Jesus acts as though He is going to continue with His trip, and they tell Him: “Do not go, stay with us”; and they invited Him to have dinner. And Jesus accepted their invitation, just as He had accepted Abraham’s invitation when he saw three people walking, who were Elohim and the two Archangels: Gabriel and Michael.
But now these walkers of Emmaus (I had said *Bethany, but it is Emmaus -they are near each other) invited Him to have dinner too. He accepted the invitation. And when they were seated at the table, He took the bread, and as He always did… He gave thanks… and that is also why Christians always give thanks for the meals they will eat. The apostle Paul says4: “For it is sanctified by the word of God and prayer.”
And when He broke the bread and gave to them, surely He did it the same way He did on the different occasions when He was with them; and they recognized that the one that had accompanied them… that walker who had spoken to them about the Word, the Word for that day, quoting the prophecies concerning the day they were living in… They said: “Of course…! Did not our heart burn within us, while he talked with us by the way, and while he opened to us the scriptures?5”
How did He open the Scriptures to them? By citing the Scriptures to them and showing their fulfillment.
And He disappeared, because He was in the glorified body. And the glorified body, which is young for all eternity, is also interdimensional: it can pass from an earthy dimension to an invisible dimension, the sixth dimension or the seventh dimension, when it is necessary.
And supper was over. Whether it was from the fright or joy, they rose and went to Jerusalem where the other apostles were to give them the news that Christ had resurrected and had been with them.
But notice, they did not recognize Him physically, but the Word that was spoken reached their hearts, their soul; which was the Word of the divine promise for that time of the Coming of the Messiah; which also spoke about His death, His burial, and His resurrection; but since He was in His glorified body and much younger than He had been in His earthly ministry, they did not recognize Him.
The new body that the believers in Christ who have died physically will receive, will also be like that: glorified, eternal, immortal, incorruptible and young for all eternity; and those of us who are alive will be transformed.
And the worries seen in the mirror will be over, knowing that each year of the mortal body the years are marked like on a calendar; marking a calendar…, and like on the trees, that scientists can know their age, likewise, the years that pass are marked on the physical body as they pass. But in the new body there are no worries: we look at ourselves in the mirror the day you receive it, and then you see yourself in the mirror one thousand years later, and you can say: “I am as young today as when I received this new and eternal body.”
But the question is: “When will we receive it?”
The Bible says, there is time for everything: a time to be born, a time to live; a time to live, a time to die; and for the believers we can say: “And a time to resurrect if we die; and a time to be restored to eternal life”; which will be in the time of the restoration of all things, which begins with the restoration of the sons and daughters of God to eternal physical life in new, immortal, glorified, and young bodies for all eternity.
For which, the believers in Christ will be in the correct cycle for that physical restoration to eternal life, which is promised for me, and for whom else? For each one of you as well. It will be the cycle parallel to that of the time of Jesus Christ in His earthly ministry.
After John the Baptist came, who was the forerunner of the First Coming of Christ, then the One to whom he was preparing the way for appeared, who was also from his family, because the virgin Mary and Elisabeth, the mother of John the Baptist, were relatives; in other words, the forerunner and foreran were family in human terms (as we say); the blessing of the forerunner and the blessing of the foreran stayed within the family (and since among family members they also call each other brothers…).
Now, God’s blessings stay in the family of God. The blessings that God has promised for His Church stay with the members of His Church.
Therefore, having the promise of the Coming of Christ in the Last Day with those who died and are in Paradise in heavenly, theophanic bodies: He will pass through Paradise, where He will judge the seven messengers of the seven ages, and then He will bring with Him the messengers with their groups, He will resurrect them in eternal and glorified bodies, and they will appear to the believers who will be alive; because all of that will take place in a cycle parallel to the First Coming of Christ and the resurrection of Christ with the dead of the Old Testament, which resurrected with Him according to Matthew, chapter 27, verse 51 and on.
And it says that many of the saints who had slept (meaning who had died) the ones who resurrected, appeared to many of their families in the city. Chapter 27, verse 52 and on, says:
“And the graves were opened; and many bodies of the saints which slept arose,
And came out of the graves after his resurrection, and went into the holy city, and appeared unto many.”
After the resurrection of Christ…, in other words, they arose or resurrected with Him and appeared to many in the city; and Christ appeared, to who? To His disciples and among His disciples was His family.
The saints who will resurrect in this end time will appear to their families, and above all, to the members of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ. When we see them we will be transformed and then we will also be young.
Therefore, the last meetings that the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ will have will be youth meetings; at least from 30… in the last 30 to 40 days the believers in Christ written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life will be young, who will be transformed, and therefore, physically restored to eternal life. And that is where our struggles and problems will have ended.
Even our financial problems will be resolved, because you will not have to say: “I have to go get a bus ticket, or I have to take my car out of the parking garage, or I have to get a plane ticket.” Do not worry, we will meet on different occasions after we are glorified and transformed.
We can say that the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ during the last 30 to 40 days of being here on Earth will consist of young people, between 18 to 21 years old in appearance, that will have no limitations for anything. Transportation needs? The body is already equipped, no matter the country; the furthest place is the Marriage Supper of the Lamb; so do not worry.
That time and that stage of the Church has been awaited by millions of believers in Christ, of Christians from past ages with their messengers; and that is fine, because the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is composed by believers; I am referring to the Bride of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, who like Abraham, awaits with patience for what God has promised, because God is powerful to fulfill that which He has promised.
Abraham knew that although He would get old, God would still give him the promised son; and if He had to transform him, make him young again, He would make him young again so that he could have the promised son, which God did.
And if for the rapture or catching away of the Church, the believers in Christ from past ages who awaited for Him in their time: some died due to old age, others due to health problems or accidents, or due to persecutions to which they were subjected to; that does not invalidate the promise nor their faith; because He will bring them to Earth, He will resurrect them in glorified bodies, and then they will be ready to go (in the precise moment) in the rapture or catching away of the Church.
They were not transformed in the time they were physically alive, because the resurrection and transformation of the believers that will be alive, and the rapture or catching away of the Church is to be carried out in a divine cycle, in a time established by God.
The restoration of all things corresponds to the cycle parallel to the cycle when Christ was on Earth, which was the cycle of the Cornerstone, in which the Headstone, Jesus Christ, came in the midst of the people who were under the Covenant in effect for that time. Therefore, it was the Church of God of the Old Testament, of the Old Covenant, the people called out, in other words, the people called out of Egypt.
And for the Second Coming of Christ, the time is parallel to the time of the ministry of the First Coming of Christ for the people called out of the kingdom of darkness and placed in the Kingdom of God.
Now, seven stages of the Church have elapsed, which correspond to the time of Israel through the desert for forty years.
The time of Jesus corresponds to a stage or Age of Cornerstone, wherein the Cornerstone, Jesus Christ, was present; and it was in that divine cycle where the resurrection of the dead, of the saints of the Old Testament took place; and they resurrected to never die again. And they were raptured, taken away to Heaven, with Christ, when He ascended to Heaven.
After the seven stages or ages of the gentile Church, the cycle of the Age of the Cornerstone is repeated at this time. That is why that cycle of Cornerstone to which the Church has reached, which has ascended to by hearing the divine calling, in that Age of Cornerstone has responded to that calling that comes from the Age of the Cornerstone, has responded and has ascended, the calling to climb up: “Come up hither”; because from age to age, we must always climb to where the Spirit of God is, where the Spirit of God has ascended to and is in the messenger speaking to them and making the call to climb to that age.
The Church has been climbing up from age to age, hearing the Voice of Christ, the Holy Spirit, through the messenger of each age.
For this end time, the Voice of the Holy Spirit, the Angel of the Covenant, has called us to climb up to the Eternal Age, the Age of the Cornerstone, the Age parallel to the time of the ministry of the Lord Jesus Christ in His First Coming.
He prepared His disciples to enter into the New Covenant there, and receive the Spirit of God, and thus obtain the spiritual transformation. This way, now for this end time to receive the physical transformation we go up to the Age of the Cornerstone, wherein Christ through His Spirit will be speaking to us all the things that must take place soon, and He will be giving us the faith, the revelation, to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
But before we go in the Rapture we will be for on Earth for 30 to 40 days, just like Jesus Christ was on Earth for about 40 days: after He resurrected He was with His disciples speaking to them about Kingdom of God.
What will we be speaking about in those 30 to 40 days? Of the Kingdom of God, of everything having to do with the relevant time, the relevant cycle.
Then, the divine cycle for the restoration of all things is the Age of the Cornerstone; just as Christ in the cycle of the Age of the Cornerstone came to restore the human being to eternal life, carrying out the relevant Sacrifice to take away the sins and restore the individual to eternal life with the Spirit of God.
Remember that Christ said to Nicodemus in chapter 3, verses 1 to 6: “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.”
Nicodemus thought he had to enter into his mother’s womb to be born again; but Christ said to him: “Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.”
In other words, there is a formula to enter into the Kingdom of God; just like there is a formula to enter into this earthly kingdom, which is being born through our mother.
In order to see this earthly kingdom we had to be born in this earthly kingdom; and to see the heavenly Kingdom, the Kingdom of Christ, we are born of the Water and of the Spirit, and we are placed in the Kingdom of Christ. Then the physical part will come for those who already have the spiritual part. Then, we will physically enjoy the Kingdom of the Messiah in the Millennial Kingdom, and therefore, for all of eternity in the Kingdom of God.
We are in the cycle in which, if our physical body resists, we will be able to experience our transformation; we are in the cycle where God will fulfill that promise. But we do not know in what year or what month it will be; therefore, by faith we wait for our transformation.
Those in the time of the apostles among the Jews and the apostle Paul among the gentiles have been waiting for about 2,000 years. So the ones who will wait the least amount of time are the ones of the end time, those in the cycle of the Age of the Cornerstone.
And if one of you despairs, do not worry, if your body dies, your physical body will return; you will return and will be resurrected in a glorified, eternal, and immortal body like the young and glorified body that Jesus Christ our Savior has.
On one occasion, Jesus said to His disciples that some of the ones who were there would not taste death, in other words, they would not experience death; and He said to them that the Son of Man would come in the glory of His Father with His Angels, and He would recompense each one according to their deeds; and then He took them to Mount Transfiguration, and transfigured before them to show to them what would take place at that time.
In other words, He made them the promise in chapter 16, verses 26 to 28 of Matthew; and in chapter 17 He took them to see, to have the vision, to see that vision which He was speaking to them about; and there He transfigured before them, and Moses and Elijah appeared on either side of Him.
Because that is the Order of the Coming of the Lord to His Church in the divine cycle of the Age of the Cornerstone, parallel to the divine cycle of the Age of the Cornerstone of the days of Jesus, to carry out the Work that would produce the new birth, and therefore, eternal life for the soul and spirit; in that same cycle, in this end time, which will produce eternal physical life for the believers in Christ who have died and for those who are alive, the Second Coming of Christ with His Angels is promised, coming to His Church in the Last Day, which is His Kingdom; because the Kingdom is in the spiritual realm.
It is to His Kingdom that the Son of Man comes to, in that divine cycle promised for the Last Day; and the Last Day is the seventh millennium from Adam to the present, and it is also the time wherein the Dispensation of the Kingdom interlaces with the Dispensation of Grace.
“THE DIVINE CYCLE FOR THE RESTORATION OF ALL THINGS.”
Notice (chapter 17 of Matthew), when Christ with His disciples descends from Mount Transfiguration, then the disciples tell Jesus… because they saw Moses and Elijah there in the vision on Mount Transfiguration; they tell Him, they ask Jesus [verse 10-11]: “Why then say the scribes that Elias must first come?” Christ tells them: “Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.”
Therefore, the ministry of Elijah restores, it comes to restore. In the days of prophet Elijah, there, among the tribes of the North, composed of the ten tribes of the North, he restored the ten tribes to God, because they had inclined to idolatry; and God sent Elijah to restore those tribes through Elijah, to restore them to God and the Divine Program.
That is why the promise to call and gather one hundred and forty-four thousand Hebrews, twelve thousand from each tribe, corresponds to the ministries of the Two Olive Trees, the ministries of Moses and Elijah, that appear there on Mount Transfiguration.
And therefore, in the Last Day, those ministries will first be in the midst of the Church and then in the midst of the Hebrew people; because He comes with His Angels, which are the ministries of Moses and Elijah, to call and gather one hundred and forty-four thousand Hebrews, twelve thousand from each tribe. They are not the Bride, the Bride-Church of the Lord Jesus Christ. They will have to… the one hundred and forty-four thousand will have to go through the great tribulation, where the antichrist will persecute them and kill them. But the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ will be at the Last Day receiving the Messiah the Prince, Christ coming to His Church at the end time.
Reverend William Branham spoke about that, and in the message Questions and Answers on Hebrews, Part III, on page 307, paragraph 730 (I will read part of that to you)… says:
“When they see Jesus coming for the Bride, they’ll say, ‘Lo, this is our God whom we waited on. That’s Him!’ But He’s not coming for them; He come for His Bride.”
In other words, Christ comes for His Church, and that will be in the fulfillment of the Third Pull, in the fulfillment of the Vision of the Tent; that is where they will see Christ coming for His Church, and they will say: “This is the One we have been waiting for.”
Christ comes in the Last Day for His Bride-Church, in that divine cycle of the Age of the Cornerstone, to cry out as when a lion roars and seven thunders utter their voices; in other words, to speak the Final Message consecutively to His Church: everything related to His Coming and the Program He will carry out in His Coming; and thus, give the faith to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
But remember that once we are changed we will be on Earth for about 30 to 40 days; in other words, we will be using our new body on Earth for the first time; and then Christ will prove to us that the body is interdimensional by taking us to another dimension. The need for automobiles, planes, rockets, bicycles, cars, oxen and so on, ends.
That is what God has prepared for me, and for who else? For each one of you as well.
Christ coming to His Bride-Church in the Last Day is shown in Revelation, chapter 10, verse 1 and on.
In the book of The Seven Seals of Reverend William Branham, says, on page 70:
“I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow… upon his head…
If you’ll notice, that’s Christ, because He in the Old Testament was called the angel of the covenant, and He’s directly coming to the Jews now, for the church is finished. All right.
…and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:
You remember that angel in Revelation 1? Same thing. Angel is a messenger. He’s a messenger to Israel.”
The Angel of the Covenant is the same Angel who delivered the Hebrew people, and Christ is that Angel, who delivered the Hebrew people; it is the same Christ who was dressed in flesh, the Word that dressed in flesh and appeared in the midst of Israel, who is the Anointed One, the Christ, the Messiah.
“…He’s a messenger to Israel. The church has been raptured, see. Now… or fixing to be raptured. He comes for his church.”
Now, the messenger to Israel, which is the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, comes for His Church, redeemed by His precious Blood shed on Calvary’s Cross; in other words, He comes to His Kingdom to seek His Church, and where He has been manifesting Himself from age to age through different messengers.
For the time of Reverend William Branham, there was a manifestation of the Son of Man, in other words, of the Holy Spirit, the Angel of the Covenant, this Angel manifested in a body of flesh called William Branham. It is as simple as that.
And it was a manifestation of grace, in an act of grace under the Dispensation of Grace; but he says there will be a new manifestation of the Son of Man.
That will be in this divine cycle of the Age of the Cornerstone, where the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ will be hearing the Voice of Christ, speaking consecutively to His Church, and giving Her the faith to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
This is the greatest mystery of the entire Bible: the mystery 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.
Everything is resting and awaiting the Coming of the Lord to His Church, the Coming of the Mighty Angel that descends from Heaven, the Coming of the Angel of the Covenant, the Coming of the Angel of God.
In the message “Christ is the Mystery of God Revealed,” page 30, Reverend William Branham said: “We don’t know when He’s coming, how He’s coming. And it is good that it is not known.” Why? Because many impersonators would try to imitate the Second Coming of Christ. Just as Theudas and Judas, and other people imitated the First Coming of Christ, they would also try to imitate the Second Coming of Christ.
Reverend William Branham said that everything related to His Coming would be in simplicity; but we will recognize Him in His Coming because we will be hearing His Voice in the divine cycle of the Age of the Cornerstone. He will be speaking to us with that Voice of Seven Thunders, with which He will give us the faith to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
I will give you what remains from this study soon, in the time of the fulfillment of the Vision of the Tent, when it is being fulfilled; because there are still things that should not be spoken, but once they are opened, we will say: “I knew it… I knew God was doing something, I understood it.” So did I.
The Coming of Christ for the Last Day is the biggest mystery of all mysteries in the Bible; it is the mystery of which Christ said that not even the angels knew the day nor the hour.
It is the mystery of Revelation, chapter 8: when the Seventh Seal was opened and there was silence in Heaven for about half an hour. Symbols were not shown neither was anything heard saying: “The Seventh Seal is such thing.” Because the Seventh Seal is the Coming of Christ to His Church. And it has been left this way in Revelation, chapter 8, in that mystery – in a mysterious way, to avoid imitations; and if they do arise, they fail to imitate.
The mystery of the Seventh Seal will be revealed by the Voice of Christ, the Seven Thunders of Revelation, which is the Voice of Christ speaking consecutively to His Church in the divine cycle of the Age of the Cornerstone.
And we are gradually growing in our knowledge of these divine mysteries and of all things promised for this end time; and we rest in the promises of God made for us for this end time, which is the divine cycle for the restoration of all things.
That is why we do not worry if we get some gray hairs; and if all our hair becomes gray, that does not worry us either; but instead, each year, month, week and day that passes, we say: “I am a day closer to my transformation, I am a week closer to my transformation, I am a month closer to my transformation, I am a year closer to my transformation.” Therefore, every year is a sign that we are closer to our transformation.
It was good that those in the times of Saint Paul and the other apostles did not know for what time the transformation of the living and the resurrection of the dead in Christ would be, because they would have to say: “I am 2,000 years closer to my transformation, or my resurrection.” But now we are aware that we are closer to our transformation; closer to the redemption of our body, which is our adoption, our transformation.
Why do we know we are close? Because we are in the cycle where the resurrection of the dead in Christ and the transformation of us who are living, will happen.
All the signs in the sky, in the stars, the sun, the moon and on Earth, testify that we are in the end time; and what is happening in the midst of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ testifies that we are in the cycle of the stage of the Cornerstone, wherein the redemption of the body will take place, but we do not know in which year; however, we will continue to wait for it until we are changed; and if someone leaves ahead of time, well until they resurrect.
The Church of the Lord Jesus Christ must also be completed, and it will be completed when the last one written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life enters.
Which is why we always give people who have not received Christ as Savior the opportunity to do so because one of them will be the last one; and that must be fulfilled in order for Christ to leave the Throne of Intercession in Heaven, where He does… He is doing the work as High Priest to intercede for every person who receives Him as their Savior.
For which, if there is someone who has not received Christ as Savior, you may do so now and we will be praying for you; therefore, you can come to the front and we will pray for you.
Christ died on Calvary’s Cross, and therefore carried out the Work of Redemption. He saved us there on Calvary’s Cross.
It is a check for eternal life; but until the person receives the check, that check is not effective yet, even if it is made out in your name. And the salvation is a check of salvation and eternal life, and it is required that the person receives Him in order for the salvation and eternal life to become a reality.
“He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into condemnation (Christ said); but is passed from death unto life.” (John, chapter 5, verse 24).
A person passes from death to life when they receive Christ; but the person may say: “But I am alive.” You are alive to a temporary life; but you don’t have eternal life until you receive Christ as Savior, then you go from death to life.
Even if the human being has physical life, it is temporary; because death follows him. But when he receives Christ as Savior, who said: “I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.” (John, chapter 14, verse 6).
There is no other way to approach God, unless we receive Christ as our only and sufficient Savior.
The most important thing for every human being is eternal life, and therefore, there is no one more important for the human being than Jesus Christ; Jesus Christ the Son of God, who has the exclusivity of eternal life to give to he that receives Him as Savior.
In the different countries, you may also continue coming to the Feet of Christ so that you receive Him as Savior, and Christ grants you eternal life.
Christ gives eternal life to people, represented in sheep who hear His Voice and receive Him as Savior. “My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me: And I give unto them eternal life.6” In other words, hearing the Gospel of Christ and receiving Him as Savior is a matter of eternal life; and therefore, it is the most important thing for the life of every human being.
That is why Christ said7: “But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.” The main thing on Earth is eternal life, which we may obtain through Jesus Christ.
There is no one else who can give us eternal life, there is only One, and His Name is Lord Jesus Christ. He is the most important person to set foot on this planet Earth. He is the heir of the entire Creation; and all those who receive Him as only and sufficient Savior become His joint heirs.
Let us stand up to pray for those who on this occasion have come to the Feet of Christ, those present here and for those in other nations.
With our heads bowed and our eyes closed:
Our Father who art in Heaven, I come to you in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, with all these people who are receiving Christ as their only and sufficient Savior. Receive them in Your Kingdom. I pray to you in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
And now repeat with me this prayer I will be making for each of you who are here present and those in other nations:
Lord Jesus Christ, I have heard the preaching of Your Gospel and Your faith was born in my heart, in my soul.
I believe in you with all my soul, I believe in Your First Coming, and I believe in Your Name as the only name under Heaven, whereby we must be saved. I believe in Your death on Calvary’s Cross as the Sacrifice of Atonement for our sins.
I acknowledge that I am a sinner and that I need a Savior.
Lord, I heard the preaching of Your Gospel and Your faith was born in my heart.
Acknowledging that I need a Savior and that You are the only Savior, I give testimony of my faith in You and Your faith in me, and I receive You as my only and sufficient Savior.
I pray that You forgive my sins and with Your Blood cleanse me of all sin, and may You baptize me with the Holy Spirit and Fire, and bring forth the new birth in me after I am baptized in water in Your Name.
I pray to You in Your Eternal and glorious Name, Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
Now, those who have received Christ as their Savior on this occasion, here present and in other nations may ask: “When can you baptize me? Because the faith of Christ was born in my heart while I heard the preaching of the Gospel and I have received Him as my only and sufficient Savior. And He said8: ‘Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.’ I have believed with all my heart; therefore, the question is: When can you baptize me?” That is the question from the bottom of your heart, from the bottom of your soul.
Since you have believed in Christ as your Savior, by receiving Him as your Savior, you may be baptized; and may Christ baptize you with the Holy Spirit and Fire and bring forth the new birth in you.
The baptism in water does not take away sins, it is the Blood of Christ that cleanses us from all sin; but the baptism in water is a commandment of the Lord Jesus Christ, who said: “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved.”
This is because in the baptism in water the person identifies with Christ in His death, burial and resurrection. When the 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 lifted from the baptismal waters, he is resurrecting to eternal life in the Kingdom of Christ our Savior. As simple as that is the symbolism of the baptism in water in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
For which you may be baptized; and may Christ baptize you with the Holy Spirit and Fire, and bring forth the new birth in you. And we will continue seeing each other throughout eternity in the glorious Kingdom of Jesus Christ our Savior.
It has been a great privilege to be with you on this occasion speaking to you on this Bible study about THE DIVINE CYCLE FOR THE RESTORATION OF ALL THINGS.
I leave with you Reverend Joel Lara to let you know what to do to be baptized in water in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ; and in each country I leave the corresponding minister to do the same, there where you are; and to inform everyone who has received Him at this time, as their Savior, what to do to be baptized.
With you Reverend Joel Lara and in every country I leave each minister to let you know what you must do to be baptized in water in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
May God bless you and keep you, and we will continue to see each other eternally in the Kingdom of Christ our Savior.
