Good morning, kind friends and brethren present, ministers and congregations in different countries; and Dr. Missionary Miguel Bermúdez Marín there in Maracaibo, in the congregation of Jairo Ordoñez, and all the congregations gathered there with him, and the ministers; and all the congregations and ministers there in different parts of Venezuela.
Receive my greetings, and may God bless and keep all those who are connected to this Bible school broadcast for today’s Sunday school. May He open the Scriptures to us and open our understanding so that we understand.
Now let’s turn to our Bible study for today’s Sunday Bible School: “A PROPHET LIKE MOSES.” That is our Bible study for today.
For which we read in Deuteronomy chapter 18, verse 15 to 19:
“The Lord thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;
According to all that thou desiredst of the Lord thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of the Lord my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not.
And the Lord said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken.
I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.
And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.”
May God bless our souls with His Word and allow us to understand It.
“A PROPHET LIKE MOSES.”
It’s important to know that Moses is a dispensational prophet. There are minor prophets and major prophets; major prophets in the Biblical sense. In terms of ages and dispensations, major prophets are dispensational prophets; they are greater than prophets of ages.
A dispensation has seven ages; and after the seventh age, appears a dispensational prophet through whom the age that has passed is crowned and another dispensation begins. Therefore, the appearing of a dispensational prophet corresponds to an eighth age, which is eternal, a Cornerstone Age; that is why a dispensational prophet closes and begins a new dispensation; that dispensational prophet is the foundation stone for the new dispensation.
I told you that there are seven dispensational prophets and – in each dispensation.
For example, the dispensation of Moses —as a dispensational prophet— is the fifth dispensation, the Dispensation of the Law; and the sixth dispensation is the Dispensation of Grace, with Jesus Christ, the Messenger of the Dispensation of Grace.
Then comes the seventh dispensation, the Dispensation of the Kingdom, for which a dispensational prophet comes to open that new dispensation, the Dispensation of the Kingdom, for the establishment of God’s Kingdom on Earth, the Millennial Kingdom. As simple as that.
And now, just as six dispensations have passed… the sixth one is the Dispensation of Grace, which has been approaching its end, where the elect of the seventh Church age are called and gathered; and then we go into the Age of the Cornerstone, an eternal age, for the introduction of God’s Kingdom on Earth, for the introduction of the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom on Earth.
Therefore, a dispensational prophet must also appear, a prophet like Moses; a prophet like Jesus as well, a prophet like Yeshua, the Messiah, who fulfilled the First Coming; because the Coming of the Lord has two parts: the First Coming, which appears in Isaiah, chapter 61, verse 1 to 3, where it says:
“The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the Lord hath anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;
To proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord, and the day of vengeance of our God; to comfort all that mourn;
To appoint unto them that mourn in Zion, to give unto them beauty for ashes, the oil of joy for mourning, the garment of praise for the spirit of heaviness; that they might be called trees of righteousness, the planting of the Lord, that he might be glorified.”
The Scripture we read here, speaks to us about the “acceptable year of the Lord” and it speaks to us of the “day of vengeance of our God.”
In the time of Jesus, or of Yeshua, in Saint Luke, chapter 4, He read that passage of Isaiah. Chapter 4, verses 16 and on, says:
“And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read.
And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written,
The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised,
To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.
And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.
And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.”
We find that in this passage, when He reads verse 19: “To preach the acceptable year of the Lord,” He didn’t continue reading, and He closed the book; and He didn’t read what it said next: “And the day of vengeance of our God.”
Why didn’t He read: “And the day of vengeance of our God”? Because that part corresponds to the Coming of the Lord at the Last Day, in this time in which we are living.
For Christianity that will be the Second Coming of the Lord. For the Jews, since they haven’t understood that the first part of the Coming of the Lord was already fulfilled in Yeshua or Jesus, to them it will be as if it were the First Coming; but it’s the second part of the Coming of the Lord.
Because the Coming of the Lord has two parts: the first was already fulfilled by proclaiming “the acceptable year of the Lord”; and the second will be fulfilled by proclaiming “the day of vengeance of our God,” announcing “the day of vengeance of our God”; in other words, announcing the time of the great tribulation that will fall upon the human race; making known, revealing the Divine judgment that will fall upon the human race at this end time.
That is the way we will know the things that must come to pass at this time, that is how the problems that will come upon the planet Earth will be made known, and therefore, upon the human race, which lives on planet Earth, where God placed them along with trees, animals, birds, fish, and so forth.
We are at the end time, where, from one moment to another, the Title Deed is given from the right hand of God to the Lord, in Heaven, to bring It to Earth and give It to a man for him to eat It; which has to be a prophet represented in John the apostle, in Revelation chapter 10; whom, after eating It will have to make It known, he will have to make known Its content; and that will fulfill the prophecy of the Two Olive Trees for the Jews; because the one who eats the Book then has to prophesy before many peoples, nations, and tongues, the things that will come to pass.
And those Two Olive Trees of Revelation, chapter 11, will prophesy the Divine judgments that will come upon the planet Earth. Those Two Olive Trees are also the ones that call and gather the Jews with the trumpet sound of the Feast of Trumpets.
And the Feast of Trumpets will be fulfilled for the Jews at this end time; and they are called with that Message of the Feast of Trumpets, because the Trumpet of the Feast of Trumpets is the Message that will be proclaimed by a prophet like Moses, who is promised to come.
We had Moses, we had Yeshua or Jesus (a prophet like Moses) proclaiming “the acceptable year of God”; and then, at this end time, we will have a prophet like Moses proclaiming “the day of vengeance of our God” to humanity. And for the believers who will be transformed, we have the promise of the revelation of the Seventh Seal under the Last Trumpet or Great Voice of Trumpet, of First Corinthians, chapter 15, verses 49 to 58.
That Trumpet or Great Voice of Trumpet is the Message of the revelation of the Seventh Seal, the Message of the revelation of the Coming of the Lord for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, to give us the faith to be transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. That is the Last Trumpet or Great Voice of Trumpet for Christianity.
Let’s read here, in First Corinthians, chapter 15, verses 51 and on, where it says:
“Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall not all sleep, (in other words, we won’t all die), “but we shall all be changed (in other words, the dead in Christ will resurrect in glorified bodies and the living in Christ will be transformed). In a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump.”
In every age the Trumpet of the Gospel, of the Message relevant to each age, was sounded by the Holy Spirit through the messenger of each age; and the elect were gathered with their messenger in each age. And at the end time, the elect of the end time will be called and gathered by hearing the Great Voice of Trumpet, God’s Message for the end time, to call and gather all the elect so that they are transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Therefore, they will be called and gathered with that Great Voice of Trumpet; and that is the Voice of the Lord at the end time.
The same One who has been in the messengers of each age speaking His Word and calling the elect of each age, will be calling and gathering the elect at this end time in the Age of the Cornerstone, the age of and for the Coming of the Lord to His Church at this end time.
This is what Saint Paul speaks to us about in First Thessalonians, chapter 4, verses 13 and on, where he says:
“But I would not have you to be ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep (in other words, those who have died physically), that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.
For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.
For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep.
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
Wherefore comfort one another with these words.”
Here it tells us again about the Voice of the Archangel, It tells us: “A Shout, the Voice of the Archangel, and the Trumpet of God.” All of that is for the believers in Christ; therefore, there is a great blessing for the believers in Christ. And in Philippians, chapter 3, verses 20 to 21, Saint Paul says:
“For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, 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.”
Here it shows us that in His Coming, the Lord will come to transform the living believers, and He will come with those who died and resurrect them here on Earth.
There is a great blessing for the believers in Christ, who are citizens of Heaven.
Why are they heavenly citizens? Because when a person is born, he is a citizen of the nation or country in which he was born; he has citizenship in that country. And when we are born, each of us in the country respective to each person, we are legitimate citizens of that country. And when a person is born again, because the new birth is not earthly but heavenly, and he has been spiritually born of Heaven through the Spirit of God, through the baptism of the Holy Spirit, he is a heavenly citizen.
The heavenly citizens are the ones who have the promise of resurrection if they die, and if they are alive on Earth in the time of the transformation of the believers, then the believers who are alive, born-again believers, born in the Kingdom of God, born of Heaven, will be transformed. Therefore, there is a great blessing for the heavenly citizens who died: their resurrection. And for the heavenly citizens who are alive in this end time, in the fulfillment of the promise of the resurrection, when we see them we will be transformed; when we see the dead in Christ resurrected, we will be transformed.
This is for all the living believers in Christ that have been born again, born in God’s heavenly Kingdom, which is a spiritual birth; and now all they need is the physical birth, which will be the physical transformation of their bodies; and then we will all be in the image and likeness of the Lord, in the image and likeness of the Messiah, in the image and likeness of God.
The human being lost his image when he sinned in the Garden of Eden, and he also lost the type of body in the likeness that he had when he was created; the seed of Adam and Eve fell from the high level at which they were —in the image and likeness of God— to a lower level. And therefore, they also lost the Title Deed, which is the seven-sealed Book of Revelation chapter 5, which is the Title Deed of the Heavens and the Earth, where the names of all the sons and daughters of God who will be redeemed by the Redeemer, are written. Those are the heirs of God and joint-heirs with Christ our Savior.
We are at a very important time, where at any moment time will end, and the Title Deed will come to Earth, and the Claiming Work will be carried out on Earth, and the Great Tribulation will come; and then the restoration of the Kingdom on Earth, the Millennial Kingdom, in the territory of Israel, with the Jewish Messiah sitting on the Throne of David in Jerusalem, who will rule over all nations.
In that Kingdom, there will be peace for all human beings who will live in the Kingdom of the Jewish Messiah, who will sit on the Throne of David as a descendant of King David.
There is a great blessing for the Jews at this end time and a great blessing for the believers in Christ in this end time. The great blessing for the believers is the Coming of the Lord, to transform the believers in Christ, to be in the image and likeness of Christ; and for the Jews, the restoration of the Kingdom of David by the Son of David, the Jewish Prince-Messiah, who will sit on the Throne of David and restore God’s Kingdom on Earth for and in the midst of the Jews.
For this reason, the Voice of Trumpet of the Feast of Trumpets, of Leviticus 23, verse 24, will sound for them; and they will go into the Feast of Trumpets, which is the feast that will be fulfilled to call and gather the Jews that will enter the Kingdom of God at this end time, and they will receive the blessing of God’s Kingdom which will be restored on Earth.
And they will no longer be marginalized; Jews will no longer be despised, instead the capital of the planet Earth will be Jerusalem, and the Federal District will be the entire territory of Israel. The ministries will be there, all the ministries: the Ministry of Economy, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry of Education, the Ministry for political affairs, the Ministry of Justice, the Ministry for economic affairs, and all ministries. And the ones who will be the ministers of those ministries will be there in Jerusalem, ministering with the Jewish King, a descendant of King David, who will be sitting on David’s Throne. Those are promises for the Hebrew people that will be fulfilled at this end time.
And the richest nation will be Israel, in the Kingdom of the Jewish Messiah. The stock exchange will also be there, because all riches will be taken to Jerusalem.[1]
In other words, born-again Christians throughout time, and Jews, have no reason to fight, because each one has an important part in the Kingdom of the Jewish Messiah who will sit on David’s Throne at the end time, in the Millennial Kingdom, when it is established on Earth; which will be the Kingdom of God being restored, or Kingdom of David being restored to Israel; because God’s Kingdom… There is God’s Kingdom, God’s heavenly Throne which is in Heaven; and there is God’s earthly Throne, which is the Throne of David.
In other words, there are great blessings for the Christian born-again believers of this end time, and there are also great blessings for the Jews of this end time.
Therefore, God will send a prophet like Moses. He will be the one to bring the believers into the Kingdom of God at the end time. He will be the one to sound the Great Voice of Trumpet with the Spirit of God through him, in whom He will place His Word relevant to this end time, and He will be speaking to us through that dispensational prophet like Moses.
And for the Jews, He will have the ministries of the Two Olive Trees, through which He will be speaking to the Jews in the fulfillment of the Feast of Trumpets, and then of the Feast of Atonement, and then of the Feast of Tabernacles or Feast of Booths; feasts which are for Israel.
Therefore, at this end time, a dispensational prophet like Moses is required. That dispensational prophet like Moses is this prophet found here, of whom it says:
[Revelation 1:1] “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John.”
That Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ is that dispensational prophet who must appear at the end time. He appears in the Bible, and therefore, He must physically appear at this end time.
In Revelation 19, verse 9 and on, it says:
“And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.
And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”
The Angel didn’t allow John to worship him. He tells him that he is the fellow servant of John and of the prophets; and he is the fellow servant of those that have the testimony of Jesus.
And in Revelation, chapter 22, verse 6, it says:
“And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done.”
The God of the holy prophets has sent His Angel, the Angel-Messenger for the end time.
And in Revelation, chapter 22, verse 16, it says:
“I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.
And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.”
Now, notice how the Lord says: “I Jesus have sent mine angel.” That Angel-Messenger is a spirit of a prophet sent by God to bring the Divine revelation to His people.
In Revelation chapter 3, verses 20 to 21, it tells us:
“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.”
Now notice, just as the Lord sat on the heavenly Throne with the Father, likewise, the Lord will seat the Overcomer on His earthly Throne; just as He sat at the right hand of God, in other words, all power was given to Him in Heaven, and therefore, God governs all of Creation through Him.
The heavenly Throne is the one that rules all of Creation, where the Lord is sitting at the right hand of God. He has all the power of God. That is why He said in Saint Matthew, chapter 28, verses 16 to 20: “All power is given unto Me in Heaven and on Earth.” In other words, the One who sits on the Throne has all the power of that Throne’s Kingdom. And He says: “To him that overcomes will I grant to sit with Me on My Throne.”
The earthly Throne of the Lord is the Throne of David; that is where the Overcomer, the Angel that the Scripture speaks about here, will be seated; and he is given that blessing. He will be a dispensational messenger, the messenger of the Dispensation of the Kingdom, whom God will use for the earthly Kingdom to be established on Earth and to sit with the Lord on His Throne at the end time; just as the apostles will also sit on twelve thrones,[2] and the messengers (of each age) will also be seated on thrones; they are the representatives of the people of their time.
And now, we have seen that a prophet like Moses will come to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, and to the Hebrew people as well; because they have the promise of the coming of Elijah, and the coming of Moses; a prophet like Elijah, a prophet like Moses; a dispensational prophet, which is the greatest kind of prophet that exists in the Kingdom of God.
There are only seven dispensational prophets. Therefore, Moses was the fifth one, Yeshua (or Jesus) was the sixth one, and that dispensational prophet who comes at this end time is the seventh dispensational prophet and last dispensational prophet.
“A PROPHET LIKE MOSES.”
May God bless you and keep you.
I’ll leave Rev. José Benjamín Pérez here with you to inform you about what he has to share with you. And in each country, I leave the relevant minister. And we will see each other again on Friday and Sunday, God willing; and perhaps a few more Sundays, and Fridays too.
May God bless you and keep you; and continue having a happy evening, filled with the blessings of Christ our Savior, for those who are present and those who are in other nations.
“A PROPHET LIKE MOSES.”
