God’s order and process in His Work from beginning to end

Good morning, beloved friends and brethren present, and those who are via internet in different countries.

May the blessings of Jesus Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, be upon you all and upon me also; and may Christ speak His Word to us on this occasion, and edify us, and show us everything that He wants to show us on this occasion, of His Work relevant to this end time. In the Eternal Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen and amen.

We read in Genesis, chapter 1, verse 1 and on; and then we will also read in Habakkuk, chapter 3, verse 1 to 2, and in Ecclesiastes, chapter 3, verse 14 to 15. It says:

“In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.

And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.

And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.

And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.

And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.

And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.

And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.

And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

And the evening and the morning were the third day.

And God said, Let there be lights in the firmament of the heaven to divide the day from the night; and let them be for signs, and for seasons, and for days, and years:

And let them be for lights in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth: and it was so.

And God made two great lights; the greater light to rule the day, and the lesser light to rule the night: he made the stars also.

And God set them in the firmament of the heaven to give light upon the earth,

And to rule over the day and over the night, and to divide the light from the darkness: and God saw that it was good.

And the evening and the morning were the fourth day.

And God said, Let the waters bring forth abundantly the moving creature that hath life, and fowl that may fly above the earth in the open firmament of heaven.

And God created great whales, and every living creature that moveth, which the waters brought forth abundantly, after their kind, and every winged fowl after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

And God blessed them, saying, Be fruitful, and multiply, and fill the waters in the seas, and let fowl multiply in the earth.

And the evening and the morning were the fifth day.

And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind: and it was so.

And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind: and God saw that it was good.

And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

And God blessed them, and God said unto them, Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it: and have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over every living thing that moveth upon the earth.

And God said, Behold, I have given you every herb bearing seed, which is upon the face of all the earth, and every tree, in the which is the fruit of a tree yielding seed; to you it shall be for meat.

And to every beast of the earth, and to every fowl of the air, and to every thing that creepeth upon the earth, wherein there is life, I have given every green herb for meat: and it was so.

And God saw every thing that he had made, and, behold, it was very good. And the evening and the morning were the sixth day.”

And in chapter 2 of Genesis it says, beginning on verse 1:

“Thus the heavens and the earth were finished, and all the host of them.

And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.

And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

These are the generations of the heavens and of the earth when they were created, in the day that the Lord God made the earth and the heavens,

And every plant of the field before it was in the earth, and every herb of the field before it grew: for the Lord God had not caused it to rain upon the earth, and there was not a man to till the ground.

But there went up a mist from the earth, and watered the whole face of the ground.

And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul.

And the Lord God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put the man whom he had formed.

And out of the ground made the Lord God to grow every tree that is pleasant to the sight, and good for food; the tree of life also in the midst of the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

And a river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from thence it was parted, and became into four heads.”

May God allow us to understand His Word here from Genesis.

Now let’s turn to Habakkuk, chapter 3, verse 1 to 2, where it says:

“A prayer of Habakkuk the prophet upon Shigionoth.

O Lord, I have heard thy speech, and was afraid: O Lord, revive thy work in the midst of the years, in the midst of the years make known; in wrath remember mercy.”

And in Ecclesiastes, let’s see, chapter 3, verses 14 to 15, it says:

“I know that, whatsoever God doeth, it shall be for ever: nothing can be put to it, nor any thing taken from it: and God doeth it, that men should fear before him.

That which hath been is now; and that which is to be hath already been; and God requireth that which is past.”

Also in chapter 1, here it also tells us something, of Ecclesiastes; chapter 1, verse 9 to 10, it says:

“The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.

Is there any thing whereof it may be said, See, this is new? it hath been already of old time, which was before us.”

Our subject for this occasion is: “GOD’S ORDER AND PROCESS IN HIS WORK FROM BEGINNING TO END.”

To all fathers in Puerto Rico and other nations commemorating Father’s Day: Congratulations to all fathers! And may God bless you very much; and may God help you to be responsible as fathers, with your families, with your children, with your wives; and to always work in favor of your homes to keep them united, with love, expressing that love to your wife and thanking God for the home you have; and may God help you always to keep your home very united, serving our beloved Lord Jesus Christ, and keep your children united in divine love, leading them in God’s path.

“Train up a child in the way he should go, and even when he is old (or is grown up) he will not depart from it.”¹

May God help all parents to fully take the responsibility of parents and spouses seriously, to keep the home well united, serving our beloved Lord Jesus Christ. May God bless you greatly and use you also in that position of parenting all the time of your lives.

And now, “GOD’S ORDER AND PROCESS…”

Our heavenly Father, you see, today on Father’s Day (there in Puerto Rico and maybe in other places) we are going to be talking here about the heavenly Father, and we are going to see: “GOD’S ORDER AND PROCESS IN HIS WORK FROM BEGINNING TO END.”

And if God, our heavenly Father, has an order and a process in His Work, every father has to have an order and a process in his home, in his family, in order to carry out his whole function as a responsible father before God and with his family.

Now, our God, our heavenly Father, is a responsible Father; and we are going to see the order and process in His Work from beginning to end.

It’s very important to know that His Work was already predestined, in other words, that His Work was already chosen by God to be carried out since before the foundation of the world.

We have God’s Work, the Work of Redemption in the First Coming of the Messiah, the First Coming of Christ, through which God manifested in that veil of flesh carried out His Work of Redemption. That Work was already destined by God since before the foundation of the world; this is what the apostle Saint Peter tells us in his first letter. Chapter 1 of First Peter, verses 18 and on, where he speaks to us of the way in which we have been redeemed, he says:

“…as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, as silver and gold, from your vain conversation received by tradition from your fathers;

But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world…”

Since when was this Work of Redemption destined to be carried out? Since before the foundation of the world. The Work of God, to be carried out, is already destined since before the foundation of the world.

“…but was manifest in these last times for you…”

And also out of love of me; of you, out of love of you, and also out of love of me; and out of love of all who have their names written (where?) in the Lamb’s Book of Life.

“Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.

Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another with a pure heart fervently:

Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.”

Now we can see that this Work of God, the Work of Redemption carried out on Calvary’s Cross by God Himself through His physical body that He created in Mary’s womb…; which was born in Bethlehem of Judea and then grew; and through that body (God manifested in Him, the Angel of the Covenant manifested in Him) carried out the Work of Redemption on Calvary’s Cross.

But that Work was destined by God since before the foundation of the world. In other words, it was not something that happened by mere chance, but it was already ordained, destined, predestined by God since before the foundation of the world.

Because all of God’s Work, from beginning to end, is a Work destined by God, already thought out by God and ordained by God, to be carried out —each part of His Work— in the relevant time determined by God.

And now, it’s very important to know that there are three things that we have to understand in order to comprehend God’s Work from beginning to end:

One is that God’s Work has already been destined by God since before the foundation of the world. God already thought about what He is going to do, and He thought about it (since when?) since before the foundation of the world.

Therefore, when He began to do His Work, what did He begin to do? He began to carry out, to materialize, what He thought since before the foundation of the world; and Him carrying out what He thought to do since before the foundation of the world, that is God’s Work being carried out.

Now, His Work also has an order and it also has a process. The order of God’s Work was also established by God since before the foundation of the world, and His Work is subject to that order.

Just as we find that, if you want to have water, you have to get the liquid that has the formula of water; because there is a divine order established. And that established divine order is divine laws.

If you add something else to the water’s formula, it’s no longer pure water; it may be hydrogen peroxide. And if you drink it, what will happen to you? Just as it turns the hair white for the person who pours hydrogen peroxide on his head, it will surely turn him so white that it will send him to the cemetery.

So we need to have the order of God’s Work. And the order of God’s Work is manifested here in the Word of God.

Look how for the Hebrew people God promised a deliverance.

God had already spoken to the prophet and patriarch Abraham about his seed being captive, slave, in a foreign land, and Abraham didn’t have children yet; in chapter 15 He is already telling him about the slavery in which Abraham’s descendants will find themselves [Genesis].

And now, when God called Abraham in chapter 12, He told him that He would make of him a great nation; and if He was going to make of Abraham a great nation, then he was going to have children.

And now, God promises that through a son of his —which is the promised son— he would bring into existence a great nation; and God says to Abraham, in the messianic promise: “And in thy seed shall all nations be blessed”²: that is speaking of the Messiah.

And the Messiah, for that reason, two thousand years ago, when He came, He had to come through the Hebrew nation: To be born in the midst of the Hebrew nation, through a virgin descendant of Abraham; and, therefore, descendant of Isaac, the promised son, who was type and figure of the Messiah.

And now, see how from stage to stage, from age to age, God was giving more and more light about the Work that He would carry out, and was giving the order of that Work.

Notice, in the order of that Work of Redemption that He would carry out, we find in Genesis that it would be the seed of the woman (that is for the Work of Redemption); in other words, He had to be born through a woman, the Messiah, the one who would bruise the head of the serpent and his seed, and therefore, the devil.

But it also says there that his seed, the seed of the serpent (which is the same serpent reproduced, and therefore is the same offspring of the devil), we find that it would bruise the Messiah where? Let’s see the promise here when God cursed the serpent: Chapter 3, verse 14 and on, it says:

“And the Lord God said unto the serpent, Because thou hast done this (that is, he deceived Eve), thou art cursed above all cattle, and above every beast of the field; upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life.”

In other words, the curse changed the physical body of the snake. The serpent was not a reptile, but rather, the closest animal to the human being: The missing link that science is looking for.

Nowadays, you see a serpent and you see it in the form of a reptile; and you can talk to it, and the serpent doesn’t answer you. Why? Because it no longer speaks; but it used to speak, because it used to be, not a reptile but a human-like animal, which reasoned and spoke and had knowledge of how to reproduce, but it had no soul; that is what makes the serpent an animal and not a human being. And in the place where the soul was to be placed, there the devil placed himself; and there the devil through the serpent deceived Eve.

And now, the curse that fell upon this animal (which could speak and was very similar to the human being) for letting himself be used by the devil, the same thing happens to every person who is an instrument of the devil: God’s curse will fall upon the person.

And now, what does He say? God says to the serpent:

“…upon thy belly shalt thou go, and dust shalt thou eat all the days of thy life:

And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed (that is, the serpent would have seed and the woman would also have seed)<em>; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.”

And now, the seed of the serpent and the seed of the woman would have enmity.

And that is why we find the struggle in the midst of the human race since Genesis, where the seed of the serpent, Cain, rose up against Abel and killed him³; he was the first murderer, when there were only a few people: Adam and Cain and Abel (three men), and some women.</sup>

And now, Cain kills his brother; and notice how that situation begins there. And Abel represents Christ, and Cain represents those who would kill Christ.

And now, see how the serpent —represented in his seed— crucified Christ; and this prophecy was fulfilled which says: “…it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.”

Therefore He was crucified, and it was the Roman nails that wounded in the ankles and feet, the heels, there, the Messiah, the seed of the woman (and also in the hands); and then He was wounded with a spear by a Roman soldier, in His side He was wounded.⁴ Now, see how this prophecy was fulfilled.

And now, the seed of the woman, represented in Abel, later became the Messiah.

Seth also represents Christ, for when Abel dies, then God gives another seed, another son, to Adam and Eve; and now he represents Christ resurrected.⁵

And now, through biblical history we can see GOD’S ORDER AND PROCESS IN HIS WORK FROM BEGINNING TO END.

You see, before the death of Christ on Calvary’s Cross, since Genesis, God is already talking about the seed of the woman and what will happen at the time when the seed of the woman —the Messiah— will be on Earth.

When God said that it would be the seed of the woman… and the woman has no seed, but the seed is in the man; and the woman has children through the union with a man. Now, how can it be possible for the woman to have a seed without the union with a man? When the time came for the fulfillment of that promise, God had already given more light about that promise; because God, as time goes on, gives more and more light about the promises He has made.

See, Hosea, chapter 12, tells us about the way in which God gives more light to mankind about the divine promises. In other words, in order for God to give more light about His divine promises, He also has an order. Let’s read chapter 12, verse 9 and on; it says:

“And I that am the Lord thy God from the land of Egypt will yet make thee to dwell in tabernacles, as in the days of the solemn feast.

I have also spoken by the prophets, and I have multiplied visions, and used similitudes, by the ministry of the prophets.”

How does God increase prophecy? Through the prophets that He sends, which appear on Earth speaking about things that God already spoke in the past, and they come speaking of those prophecies, and they come giving more light about those prophecies.

God in the beginning, in Genesis, chapter 3, verse 15, said that it would be the seed of the woman that would bruise the serpent in the head; and now through the prophet Isaiah, in chapter 7, verse 14, He gives us more light; because it is through the prophets that God increases the prophecy.

When He gives it for the first time, you see that prophecy and maybe you don’t understand it; why? Because He gave it there as a seed, and that remains there. But God increases the picture and the vision of that prophecy, and gives more details about that prophecy, when He sends other prophets speaking about that same prophecy. And here we have the prophet Isaiah speaking about that same prophecy and giving more light: Chapter 7, verse 14, it says:

“Therefore the Lord himself shall give you a sign; Behold, a virgin shall conceive, and bear a son, and shall call his name Immanuel.”

Here he is talking about the same prophecy but with more light, giving more details.

When you get up at dawn, and it is beginning to lighten, you can see something and you see it with little light, therefore you will not be able to appreciate all the details; but as the minutes go by, the light increases; and when an hour goes by, there is more light, and then you can see other details that you couldn’t see when dawn was breaking.

And when it is already from 7:00 in the morning to 3:00 in the afternoon (or 4:00 in the afternoon), you can look at that, and turn it around and look at it from all sides, and see all the details of that which when it was dawn you could only see and you could see (let’s say) that backpack, and you could know that it was such a thing but you couldn’t see the details.

And now, so it was in this prophecy: The seed of the woman; therefore, a woman would have a son.

And now, what would it be like? The prophet Isaiah says it would be a virgin. Therefore, it wouldn’t be through the union of a woman with a man; because that Son of the Promise, the Messiah that would come, couldn’t be the product of the union of a man and a woman, because that body wouldn’t work to be offered in sacrifice for sin, because it would be a body contaminated with sin as well (with the original sin).

And now, it had to be a body that had nothing to do with the union of a man and a woman; and that would be a great miracle.

And now, the coming of that child that would be born and His name would be called Emmanuel would be through a virgin.

Now, this doesn’t mean that when He was born He would be called Emmanuel, but Emmanuel means ‘God with us’: That child that would come into existence on Earth would be God Himself clothed in human flesh; that is what Emmanuel means.

And now, in John, chapter 1, and also Luke, chapter 1, speaks of the Coming of the Messiah. It says, chapter 1 of Luke, verses 30 and on (this was when the Archangel Gabriel appeared to her), it says:

“And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favour with God.

And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name Jesus.

He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.”

Now, we find that woman of whom God spoke in Genesis and of whom the prophet Isaiah said that she would be a virgin.

And now, when the Archangel Gabriel appears to the virgin Mary, there we have the woman of whom God spoke in Genesis and of whom the prophet Isaiah spoke that she would be a virgin, who would have a son and would call His name Emmanuel.

And now the Archangel Gabriel tells her the name that she is going to give to that child, he tells her that she is going to name Him: Jesus.

And now, anyone can say: “But didn’t Isaiah say that His name would be Emmanuel?” Emmanuel means ‘God with us’; and when the Archangel Gabriel appeared to the virgin Mary and gave her the name Jesus, it is because Jesus is God with us.

And now, let’s see if He is God with us or not God with us. In John, chapter 1, verse 1 and on, it says:

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

The same was in the beginning with God.

All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

There was a man sent from God, whose name was John (that is, John the Baptist).

The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light (in other words, to testify of the Word who would come, who is the Light), that all men through him might believe.

He was not that Light (that is, John the Baptist wasn’t the Light), but was sent to bear witness of that Light.

That was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world (that true Light, which is the Word who was with God and was God, and created all things).”

Now, let’s see how the Word would come, how God would come, how this true Light that enlightens every man would come, the Creator of the Heavens and Earth. He says:

“He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

He came unto his own (in other words, the Hebrew people), and his own received him not.

But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, even to them that believe on his name:

Which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man (that is, they are not begotten through the union of a man and a woman. When a person is born here on Earth through mom and dad, he is not born as a child of God), but of God (in other words, the new birth is what causes the person to be born as a child of God).”

Through the natural birth, for you are born as a child of your father and mother; but through the new birth, which is the birth that God performs in the person by believing in Christ as our Savior, and washing our sins in the Blood of Christ, and receiving His Holy Spirit: That is where we obtain the new birth and we obtain a theophanic body of the sixth dimension; a body of another dimension is granted for us, the same kind of body that is called the Word of God.

When it speaks of the Word of God: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God,” and “by Him all things were made,” it is speaking of the theophanic body of God, which is a body similar to our body but of the sixth dimension; also called the Angel of the Lord in the Old Testament; in which He appeared to different prophets, and they saw Him as a man, as an angel: It was God Himself in His theophanic body.

Manoah and his wife, who are Samson’s parents, saw Him and said: “We shall die, because we have seen God face to face.”⁶

Moses also saw Him. God said to him: “You shall not see my face; for man shall not see me, and live. You will see my back when I pass by.”⁷ And when He passed by, Moses saw God in His theophanic body.

We also find Joshua, who saw Him as the General in charge of the Armies of the Lord.⁸

Moses had also seen Him on different occasions.

And God with that theophanic body can manifest Himself in a light, which is the Pillar of Fire, and in that Light and from that Light speak to a prophet or to the people; and so He appeared on different occasions.

And now, we find Him on one occasion speaking to Abraham and eating with Abraham: When He appeared to him with His Archangels Gabriel and Michael; they materialized, they appeared to Abraham the day before the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah. And Abraham invited Elohim to eat with him; he offered Him a calf or a heifer, and loaves of bread, and so on and so forth, everything that went with a good meal offered to a guest, to a special guest, as Elohim (God) was to Abraham.⁹

And now, we find Him there with Abraham, and Abraham is seeing Elohim face to face.

Moses also was able to see God face to face; the Scripture says that God spoke with Moses face to face. Let’s see here: In Deuteronomy, chapter 34, verse 9 to 12, it says:

“And Joshua the son of Nun was full of the spirit of wisdom; for Moses had laid his hands upon him: and the children of Israel hearkened unto him, and did as the Lord commanded Moses.

And there arose not a prophet since in Israel like unto Moses, whom the Lord knew face to face,

In all the signs and the wonders, which the Lord sent him to do in the land of Egypt to Pharaoh, and to all his servants, and to all his land,

And in all that mighty hand, and in all the great terror which Moses shewed in the sight of all Israel.”

And now, with all this that we can see in Moses, in Manoah and Abraham; and also in Jacob…:

See, Genesis, chapter 32, it says about Jacob; when he was going to meet his brother Esau, it says; chapter 32, verse 24 onwards, of Genesis, it says:

“And Jacob was left alone; and there wrestled a man with him until the breaking of the day.

And when he saw that he prevailed not against him, he touched the hollow of his thigh; and the hollow of Jacob’s thigh was out of joint, as he wrestled with him.

And he said, Let me go, for the day breaketh. And he said, I will not let thee go, except thou bless me.”

Jacob was a man who fought for God’s blessing; and every person should fight for God’s blessing, because God’s blessing is for all eternity.

“And he said unto him, What is thy name? And he said, Jacob.

And he said, Thy name shall be called no more Jacob, but Israel: for as a prince hast thou power with God and with men, and hast prevailed.

And Jacob asked him, and said, Tell me, I pray thee, thy name. And he said, Wherefore is it that thou dost ask after my name? And he blessed him there.

And Jacob called the name of the place Peniel: for I have seen God face to face, and my life is preserved.

And as he passed over Penuel the sun rose upon him, and he halted upon his thigh.”

Peniel means ‘the face of God.’ That is why he named the place where the Angel of the Lord appeared to him, he named it Peniel, which means ‘the face of God.’

This man with whom Jacob wrestled, and didn’t let go of Him until he received the blessing of that Angel…; and notice, the blessing was when He blessed him and changed his name. And now, that is the Angel of the Lord, that is the Angel of the Lord or Angel of the Covenant, which appeared to Jacob in the form of a man, but from another dimension.

There are people that when they are told about people from another dimension, they are frightened; and when throughout the Scripture we can see that there are people from another dimension: The angels of God…, which are characters that are in a body like ours, but from another dimension. And in that kind of body God was there, which is this Angel of the Covenant, which is God Himself with His theophanic body.

And do you know something? The promise of the Coming of the Messiah, according to Malachi, chapter 3… Let’s see, the promise of the Coming of the Messiah is the Coming of, whom? Let’s see whose Coming is the Coming of the Messiah. Chapter 3 of Malachi says:

“Behold, I will send my messenger (that was John the Baptist), and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple (the Lord, God of whom? of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob), even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in:…”

The Angel of the Covenant, that is, the Angel of the Lord, the one who blessed Jacob, with whom Jacob wrestled; who is God Himself in His theophanic body, a body similar to our body but from another dimension: from the sixth dimension. It says:

“…behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts.”

Who would come? The Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord (which is God Himself with His theophanic body) would come clothed in human flesh, in the fulfillment of the Coming of the Messiah, in the fulfillment of the Son of the virgin, who would be born in the midst of the Hebrew people.

And now, you see, there is a divine order, which we can’t ignore. Without that divine order, the divine promises can’t be fulfilled.

Now, you see, the promise is that the Angel of the Covenant comes, the Angel of the Lord. And for the Coming of the Angel of the Covenant, for the Coming of the Angel of the Lord, He must have a body of flesh here on Earth; for the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord (which is God Himself with His theophanic body), to be inside that body of flesh and fulfill the Coming of the Messiah as the Lamb of God: and offer that body of flesh as a living Sacrifice for all of our sins, for the redemption of all of us.

And now, it continues saying in John, chapter 1, verse 14… John, speaking about the Word that was with God and was God, who created all things, which is the Light of every man that comes into this world; and “the true Light, the Light that enlighteneth every man, was coming into this world”: That Angel of the Covenant or Angel of the Lord (which is God Himself, which is Light, dressed in His theophanic body) would now come to this Earth dressed in human flesh. It says:

“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us…”

And we knew Him by the name Jesus.

Jesus or Jesus Christ, notice, is nothing less than the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, God Himself Creator of the Heavens and the Earth.

That is why He could take the loaves and fishes, and multiply them:¹⁰ because He is the Creator, therefore He could multiply His Creation. He could walk on the waters of the raging sea, because He is also the Creator of the waters.¹¹ 21 He could give sight to the blind, He could speak every Word that He needed to speak, and by means of that Word (with which He created the Heavens and the Earth) He could do any miracle that was necessary in favor of the people.

See that our beloved Lord Jesus Christ is not just any man, but God Himself clothed in a body of flesh called Jesus; and He came in the form of a prophet, that is why He was called the prophet of Nazareth.¹²

But the Hebrew religion, with its great religious leaders (the ministerial body headed by the high priest and the council of the Hebrew religion, the Sanhedrin Council), couldn’t understand that God was in their midst: Emmanuel, the Son of the virgin, was in their midst fulfilling His Work promised for that time; and He was doing it according to the order established by God in His Word.

You see, that body of flesh was born through a woman, and through a virgin woman upon whom the Spirit of God overshadowed and created a cell of life in her womb, which multiplied cell upon cell, and thus the body of Jesus was formed, who was born; and according to the order for the Coming of the Messiah, He had to be born where? In Bethlehem of Judea.¹³ And Mary and Joseph were living where? In Nazareth. Therefore, they had to be in Bethlehem of Judea at the time of Jesus’ birth.

And, sometimes, when God wants to fulfill in some person a prophecy, if the person doesn’t understand where he has to be for the fulfillment of that prophecy, things arise in the life of that person (or in the nation where that person lives) so that the person goes to the place where —according to the divine order— the person has to be for that prophecy to be fulfilled. And that happened in the days when Jesus had to be born.

Now, what man is going to take his wife, being in the ninth month (which is the month to give birth), and travel from one city to another? And at that time they didn’t have airplanes, nor did they have automobiles: the cars they had were horse carriages and carts pulled by oxen; and poor men, well, their means of transportation, if they were very poor, were their feet; and if they had a little more, it was their donkey; and if they had a little more, they could buy a horse, or if they wanted something faster, they could buy a camel (that would be the Cadillac).

But Joseph and Mary were poor people; therefore, the Scripture doesn’t mention that Joseph and Mary arrived or left Nazareth for Bethlehem on a camel, or in a cart pulled by horses or oxen, it doesn’t even say that they were on a donkey; although tradition shows it or shows that they were on a donkey, perhaps, but the Scripture doesn’t mention what they were on.

And if it doesn’t mention in what they were going, and they were neither on a camel, nor in a horse-drawn cart, nor were they on horseback, nor even on a donkey: well, they were going on foot, which was the common way for poor people to travel from place to place.

And now, anyone says: “From Nazareth to Bethlehem of Judea, well, that must be close.” Well, look, on Israel’s map, here we have Nazareth (up here), and down here we have Bethlehem of Judea. And with a pregnant woman in the ninth month, leaving Nazareth to get to Bethlehem of Judea is quite a long way.

How long would it take Joseph and Mary to get from Nazareth to Bethlehem of Judea, with Mary in the ninth month? We don’t know; but it was neither in half an hour, nor in one hour, nor in six hours either: it was quite a long way; but all things work together for good.

Women, when they reach the ninth month, most doctors, if she is in good health, send her for a walk. So she had good exercise to give birth.

Now Joseph wouldn’t have left with her, being in the ninth month, from Nazareth to Bethlehem of Judea; but since the king commanded a census…, and every person had to go to the city from which he descended, to the place of his ancestry. And because Joseph and Mary descended from Jesse, from that line of Jesse and from that line of King David, they had to go to whose city? To the city of Jesse, which was Bethlehem of Judea, and there be registered in that census.¹⁴

When they arrived there, it was time to give birth; and they hadn’t found lodging, everything was full; and they had to go to a manger.

When you go to the countryside, and there are cattle and horses and animals, you can see that they have certain places where there is a manger with grass there, where they put some animals; and Joseph and Mary only found room in that place to spend the night there (and we don’t know later how many more days they spent there).

And there, in the place where the animals were placed… For example, those who traveled, when they arrived to that place (let’s say, to the lodging place), well, as they didn’t come in a car: many came on donkeys, others on horseback and perhaps others on camels, well, they took those animals to the manger, so that they would be eating there, and they had water for them too; and that, well, that would be like the garage for that means of transportation of that time.

And you see, that is, and it was there, in the manger (let’s say) that the inn or the hotel had where they tried to get lodging; because it says that there was no room in the inn for them¹⁵; therefore they went to a lodging place, which would be the lodging house or the hotel of this time in which we live.</sup>

And if she was in pain there, when Joseph was trying to get lodging, then the best place was the manger that was there, to give birth. Or if they had already left the place, they found a manger there in the field, somewhere, and there the virgin Mary gave birth.

Now, look, the King of the entire universe, now He is not born in a golden cradle, He is not born in the midst of a multimillionaire family, but He is born in the midst of a poor and simple couple, but descendants of King David; because He had to come through the descendants of King David, according to the divine order; in other words, it couldn’t be in any other way; and He couldn’t be born in Nazareth either: He had to be born in Bethlehem of Judea, according to the prophecy of Micah, chapter 5, verse 2.

That is why in Matthew, chapter 2, when it speaks of the birth of Jesus, it says [verses 1-6]:

“Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, there came wise men from the east to Jerusalem,

Saying, Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we have seen his star in the east, and are come to worship him.

When Herod the king had heard these things, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him.

And when he had gathered all the chief priests and scribes of the people together, he demanded of them where Christ should be born.

And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written by the prophet,

And thou Bethlehem, in the land of Juda, art not the least among the princes of Juda: for out of thee shall come a Governor, that shall rule my people Israel.”

You see? It had to be according to the divine order, which God established, designed and established, since before the foundation of the world, and revealed it through His prophets; because the prophets of God, what they bring is the revelation of what God intended to do since before the foundation of the world: they bring to the knowledge of the human race the divine thoughts.

“Then Herod, when he had privily called the wise men, enquired of them diligently what time the star appeared.

And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search diligently for the young child; and when ye have found him, bring me word again, that I may come and worship him also (but the intention of the heart of Herod was to go and kill the child).

When they had heard the king, they departed; and, lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was.

When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy.

And when they were come into the house, they saw the young child with Mary his mother, and fell down, and worshipped him: and when they had opened their treasures, they presented unto him gifts; gold, and frankincense and myrrh.

And being warned of God in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way.”

Now, look, when the wise men arrived in Bethlehem of Judea, the star, the sign: the star that represented the Messiah, which was the sign of the Son of Man in heaven at that time, the sign that the Messiah was already on Earth and had already been born on Earth, look where it was: It stood upon the house where the child was.

In other words, in some way they saw that star, and in the direction in which they were, they saw that star. Like when we place at Christmas time some little star over the house; in that way, at a distance, they saw that star, that star in the sky, crowning the house where the child was. They came to that house. And when they got to that house, they found the child there.

So they didn’t arrive at a manger, but to a house. And wasn’t it in a manger where the child was born? Yes, where the child was born was in a manger; but when the wise men arrived, when the wise men were interviewed by King Herod…

Notice what they had said to King Herod, let’s see:

“And when they were departed (that is, the wise men), behold, the angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise, and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I bring thee word: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him (You see? Those were King Herod’s intentions: to look for the child in order to kill Him).

When he (Joseph) arose, he took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt:

And was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken of the Lord by the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt have I called my son.”

Every firstborn child passes through Egypt, and God calls him out of Egypt.

And for the sons and daughters of God, who are the firstborn of God written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life (according to Hebrews, chapter 12, verse 23, they are the firstborn who have their names inscribed in Heaven), they pass through the Egypt of this world; because this world is Egypt for the sons and daughters of God.

But notice, out of the world, God calls and gathers His children in the age in which they are allotted to live, and places them in the Mystical Body of Jesus Christ.

And now, notice how in Jesus what God had fulfilled in Israel, the Hebrew people, when God called the Hebrew people out of Egypt and brought them to the promised land, is fulfilled again. And now:

“Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the wise men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the coasts thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had diligently inquired of the wise men.”

In other words, when he asked the wise men: “Since when did that star begin to rise?”, the wise men said to him: “It has been two years since that star began to rise; and we saw it there in the East.”

Because they were living there in the territory of Babylon: They were descendants of those Hebrews who had gone captive in the Babylonian captivity, and had remained there in Babylon and had multiplied, and now had descendants; and from those descendants, believers in the prophecies of God, come these wise men looking for the Messiah. Even in Babylon there were many people who believed the prophecies that God had given to the Hebrew people; and through the prophet Daniel himself He had given many prophecies for the Hebrew people, even Daniel being there in Babylon.

And now, according to the time when the star had begun to appear, King Herod, knowing that that star had already been appearing for two years, he said: “If that sign has been appearing in the sky for two years, which is the sign of the Messiah, the sign of the Coming of the Son of Man, the sign that the Messiah is already on Earth, well, the Messiah must be about two years old.”

That is why the wise men, when they found Jesus, they found Him not in a manger, but in a house; for Joseph had already rented a house, or had bought a house, or was in a house of one of his relatives; and that is why they found Him in a house.

Therefore, Jesus, being about 2 years old, spoke with the wise men; because already at the age of 2, any child that has developed in a normal way, that has not been delayed in learning to speak, already speaks clearly; therefore, the wise men surely had a good conversation with the child Jesus.

And the wise men were very happy because they had found the Messiah, although He was still a child of approximately 2 years of age, who couldn’t yet begin His messianic ministry, which would begin at approximately 30 years of age; but the Messiah was already on Earth, because the promise of the birth of that child through a virgin descendant of King David had already been fulfilled.

God has an order.

Now, many people, perhaps, who didn’t understand these prophecies, could be expecting the Coming of the Messiah in a flying saucer. Some, you see, said on one occasion, when they talked about Jesus of Nazareth as the Messiah, other people said: “When the Messiah comes, we don’t know where He will come from.”¹⁶ They didn’t believe what God had said: that He had to come from Bethlehem of Judea. He had to be born there in Bethlehem of Judea and He had to be a descendant of King David.

God has an order and God doesn’t override that order. And no one can interrupt the fulfillment of His Work, fulfilling the order that He established. And the order for the fulfillment of His Work, He established it since before the foundation of the world.

See how, through the fulfillment of the Messianic promise to be fulfilled in the midst of the Hebrew people at the First Coming of Christ, that divine order was fulfilled.

Then we find the prophecy that says that those who dwelt in darkness and shadow of death: “Zebulun and Naphtali, on the way to the sea, on the other side of Jordan,” you see, the Scripture says that they would see great light, light would shine upon them; and that promise was fulfilled in the Coming of the Messiah two thousand years ago, when Jesus Christ began His ministry; for although He was born in Bethlehem of Judea, then He was raised (where?) in Nazareth, to fulfill the prophecy that that land of Zebulun and Naphtali would see that great light: The Great Light of the Coming of the Messiah, for He said: “I am the Light of the world.”¹⁷

And that Light of the world, the Coming of the Messiah, was there shining as He carried out His ministry and preached the Gospel. And so the Light shone in the midst of that territory that was in darkness and shadow of death, called the territory of the gentiles.

Let’s see, Matthew, chapter 4, it says, verse 12:

“That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,

The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles…”

It was called or they called it “Galilee of the Gentiles,” because in that territory the king, a gentile king who conquered that territory, took the Hebrews out of there and placed gentiles; and there, Gentiles were also mixed with Hebrews; and for that reason that territory is called “Galilee of the Gentiles.”

That territory is a place that doesn’t have a very good reputation; and that territory, notice, it covers all that place of Capernaum, Galilee, Nazareth…; all that, Nain and all those places, belong to those tribes of Zebulun and Naphtali; and that is on the other side of the Jordan, that is, coming from this side, and passing the Jordan, and entering the territory of Naphtali and Zebulun. It was in that territory that Christ was preaching after John the Baptist was taken prisoner.

And now, that territory is the one that would see that great light. He continues saying:

“That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying…”

That was in Isaiah, chapter 9, verse 2 and on, where he gives that prophecy. It says:

“That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet, saying,

The land of Zabulon, and the land of Nephthalim, by the way of the sea, beyond Jordan, Galilee of the Gentiles;

The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.”

Now we can see what was being fulfilled there, according to God’s promise through the prophet Isaiah; and this was according to the divine order to carry out His Work in that territory, in the fulfillment of that prophecy. And see how there was a territory in the earthly Israel where that prophecy would be fulfilled in the Coming of the Messiah.

Now, remember that God has the earthly Israel but God also has the heavenly Israel, which is His Church. And in the heavenly Israel God fulfills the prophecies pertaining to the heavenly Israel, which were reflected in the earthly Israel.

Look, for the earthly Israel there was a day in which God commanded to take a lamb, and to sacrifice that lamb on the 14th day of the first month (the first month of the religious year of the Hebrew people, the month of Abib), and its blood to be placed on the lintel and doorposts of the door of the houses of the Hebrews; and that lamb to be roasted (it couldn’t be prepared in any other way, but to be roasted) and placed inside each of those houses, and during the night to be eaten by the Hebrews; so that death, which would come upon the inhabitants of Egypt on that night, death wouldn’t enter into the houses of the Hebrews.¹⁸

Because on that night, the firstborn who would be in Egypt would die; and if the Hebrews didn’t have the blood of the Passover lamb applied on the lintel of their doorposts and on their doorposts, death would enter those houses and the firstborn of the family would die.

But with the blood applied on the lintel and on the doorposts of the house, and the lamb roasted and being eaten inside the houses, the night they would be gathered together and death would be loose entering into the houses of the people who would not have the blood applied on the lintel and the lamb inside…

You see, the days always, according to Genesis, begin in the evening and end in the evening; and so it remains for the Hebrew people.

For example, for the Hebrew people, yesterday at sundown Saturday ended and Sunday began; and on Friday evening, at sundown, Friday had ended and Saturday had begun; because night always comes first and then the day.

That is why it says in Genesis, let’s see, chapter 1, verse 5 (verse 3 to 5):

“And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.

And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.”

That is, the first day; because the days always end in the afternoon, and the other day begins in that same afternoon.

In other words, each day has a short period of time, where that day has a little light during the afternoon in which it begins; but then comes the darkness, the night; and then the light begins again in the morning, and then it illuminates the whole day.

But it has, let’s say, a sample of what will be the light of the morning and of the whole day, it first gets a sample during the afternoon, before the night begins. Always at evening time there is light: the light that will then come forth in the morning during that day that has begun in the evening.

That is why for the Hebrews, for the observance of Saturday, you will find that they begin Sabbath on Friday at sundown, Sabbath begins there for the Hebrew people; and Sabbath ends on Saturday at sundown. That is also according to the book of Genesis and according to the laws and ordinances of God given to the Hebrew people; because God has an order, and things are according to the divine order.

You can’t expect, or do anything, and please God, if it is not according to the order established by God. Things for God are not according to how people want to do them, but according to the order established by God. And the Work of God, which He carries out from generation to generation, and from age to age, and from dispensation to dispensation, is according to the order that He has established to carry out His Work in each time.

God has established, in order to carry out His Work: Ages and dispensations; the ages belong to the dispensations. And for each dispensation He has established a dispensational prophet, and He has established a dispensational Message. And a dispensational Message can’t come by just anyone, but by a dispensational prophet.

That is why you find that God has sent different prophets throughout biblical history, in the fulfillment of God’s Work throughout time, from Genesis to this end time.

And now, we can see that the Work of God, which He performs in each time, is according to the order that He established since before the foundation of the world; because the Work of God is an ordered Work in the time in which He performs it. And if it is an ordered Work, it must have what? An order. There is no ordered thing if it doesn’t have an order. Therefore, in the fulfillment of that order, the Work of God is carried out.

Now, God’s Work also has a process: God’s Work doesn’t appear just like that and it is already fulfilled.

See, the Work of God promised for the fulfillment of the Coming of the Messiah was already ordained by God since before the foundation of the world, and it had an order for the fulfillment of that Work to be carried out.

It had to be according to what God had already ordained: Through a woman, and that woman had to be a virgin, and that virgin had to be a descendant of the Hebrew people; and she had to be, not from any of the tribes of the Hebrew people, but she had to be a descendant of the tribe of Judah; and not from any of the families of the tribe of Judah, but a descendant of the line of King David: She had to be a descendant of Jesse¹⁹; and not by any of the sons of Jesse, but through the youngest son of Jesse, through the eighth son of Jesse, who was David.</sup>

The eighth son, that was the one who became the king of Israel, a man after God’s own heart even as a child²⁰; and that was the greatest king of the Hebrew people; that is why the promises of his throne were made to that king: That it would be for all eternity.21</sup>

The Throne of David, being for all eternity, is the Throne of the Messiah, to reign over the Hebrew people and over all nations. That is why the Archangel Gabriel told Mary that the child that would be born of her would be the Son of the Most High and God would give Him the Throne of David His father; and the Archangel Gabriel, speaking to her of that Throne of David, says that He will sit on that Throne (in other words, that entails to sit on that Throne), he says:

“He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.”

Now look at the great blessing that this man according to the heart of God received: The promise that from his descendants would come the Christ, the Messiah, the Heir to the Throne of David; and it was represented or symbolized or reflected in whom? In Solomon.

And now, see how Jesus is the Heir to the Throne of David.

And why did He not sit on the Throne of David when He came two thousand years ago? Because He had to carry out the Work of Redemption, according to the divine order for the Work of God relevant to that time.

But for His Second Coming, Christ, the Messiah, will sit on the Throne of David. And the Angel of the Covenant, which is Jesus Christ Himself in His theophanic body, will be here on Earth for the Last Day and will claim the Throne of David, and will sit on the Throne of David.

And Christ says in Revelation, chapter 3, verse 21: “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.”

Jesus Christ, by dying, resurrecting and ascending to Heaven victorious, sat on the Throne of God in Heaven.²²

And now, just as the heavenly Father, God, did with Jesus, now Jesus has promised to do with the Overcomer.

And now: “As I have overcome, and am set down with my Father in His Throne (what does He say?), I will give him (to whom? To the Overcomer) to sit with me in my Throne.”

Now, the Throne of the Father is the Throne of God which is in Heaven. And now, the Throne of Jesus is the Throne of David, to sit upon the Throne of David and reign over the Hebrew people. “And he that overcometh, to him that overcometh will I give to sit with me in my Throne.” And that will be the Overcomer of the Last Day: The Angel of Jesus Christ, the faithful and wise servant, of whom Christ says:²³

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

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

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

Why will He set him over all His goods? Because he will sit with Jesus Christ on His Throne: The Throne of David.

Now, see that all the Divine Program, all the Work of God that He will be carrying out in this end time, has an order.

The Work of God can’t be carried out at any time, in any generation, in any age and in any dispensation, out of the order established by God.

And since when did God establish that order? Since before the foundation of the world; and He has been revealing it through His prophets; for the prophets of God reveal nothing, but what God thought since before the foundation of the world; and then He has been speaking it through His prophets.

And when He sends a prophet who speaks of something that a previous prophet has already spoken, what is He doing? God is sending another prophet with more Word, more revelation, of that divine thought that God had since before the foundation of the world; which He revealed through a past prophet, but now He is giving more light about that divine thought that was already spoken by a previous prophet; but through that prophet He didn’t speak it with all the light, with all the details that will be fulfilled in the time when God will do that Work.

At the time when God does that Work, all those details have to be fulfilled; because what God is showing are also all the details of the Work that He will carry out; because He has established an order to carry out His Work, which He thought and determined to carry out since before the foundation of the world.

And now, the Work of God to be carried out, we have seen that it was already thought of, designed by God, since before the foundation of the world; and it was placed under a divine order: It has an order already established since before the foundation of the world, and it also has a process.

And in that process can’t come, in the fulfillment of the Work of God, that which is for the end can’t be fulfilled at the beginning; it has a process.

And notice, the Scripture for the First Coming of Christ said that the Messiah would be on Earth in the seventieth week, and would confirm the Covenant to the Hebrew people, and in the middle of the week life would be taken away from the Messiah.²⁴

And now, when King Herod seeks the Messiah to kill Him, it was not the time for the Messiah to die, because He had to die according to the divine order and process in the fulfillment of the Work of God.

On many occasions they tried to kill Jesus, but they couldn’t kill Him; because the death of Jesus had to be according to the divine order, in the process of the fulfillment of God’s Program, of God’s Work; and the death of Jesus had to fall in the middle of the seventieth week.

In other words, that whole Work of God had a process. And what was for the end, Herod, being the king, tried to fulfill it when Jesus was 2 years old; but he couldn’t.

No one can defeat God; and no one can interrupt God’s Work, and the order of that Work, and the process through which that Divine Work has to go through.

The Messiah, after being born on Earth, had to have a time to grow up as a child, then as a young man and then reach the age of adulthood. And then, when He was about 30 years old, the Messiah had to begin His ministry: His messianic ministry, in the seventieth week of the prophecy of the prophet Daniel; and He had to have in that ministry a period of time ministering the Word of God, working in the business of God, in the Work of God relevant to that time; and then He went up to Mount Transfiguration and there He was adopted.²⁵

And after His adoption, from then on He had only a few months left to fulfill His death on Calvary’s Cross.²⁶

From then on we find that Jesus was always looking towards Jerusalem, and His path was always towards Jerusalem, for He said that no prophet can die outside of Jerusalem.²⁷

And now, we find that He said that His death would be in Jerusalem. They tried to kill Him in different places, but it had to be according to the divine order and according to the process of that Divine Work that was taking place at that time. They couldn’t kill Him before His time either.

And now, according to the divine process, as the day for His death approached, Jesus was on His way to Jerusalem. He wept over Jerusalem, after He entered Jerusalem in His triumphal entry on that little donkey.²⁸ See, that was after He was adopted, that was after Mount Transfiguration.

And Jesus was already telling them that He would be taken prisoner, He would be judged, He would be condemned and handed over to the gentiles to be crucified; but He said to them: “But the third day I will resurrect.”²⁹ They didn’t understand those prophecies that He was speaking to them, which were prophecies that had already been spoken in the past in different forms, but not with all the light that Jesus was now giving them there.

And now, the Sacrifice of the Lamb of God on Calvary’s Cross had to be carried out in the Divine Work according to the divine order and according to the process; and according to that process, He had to come to the final stage of His ministry. It couldn’t be at the beginning of His ministry, but at the end of His ministry in that body of flesh.

And notice how everything was fulfilled according to the Work of God that He thought since before the foundation of the world: The Work of Redemption; and according to the order that He thought and established since before the Creation; and according to the process that He established through which the Messiah would go in His First Coming.

Thus there is also an order and a process for the Work of God in the fulfillment of the Second Coming of Christ. It can’t depart from the order that God already established since before the foundation of the world, which is already spoken of here in the Word of God; and through the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ God gave us more light.

Therefore, for the order and process of God in His Work for this end time…

Look, we have that for the fulfillment of the First Coming of Christ, God’s Program, God’s Work, had to go from Genesis until Jesus appeared on Earth. There was a process; and the First Coming of Christ was being reflected in the patriarchs and in the prophets: We have in the Old Testament the foundation there of the patriarchs, and then we have the part of the seven stages or ages of the prophets under the Dispensation of the Law, and we also have other prophets.

And now, that Divine Program went up until it reached the Age of the Cornerstone, the Age of the First Coming of Christ; but in all the messengers that God had sent before Jesus, the First Coming of Christ was reflected, and the Second Coming of Christ was also reflected.

Now, to reach the Age of the Cornerstone, it took God, in His Work and process, according to the order that He had established, it took Him about four thousand years from Adam to Jesus. And when Jesus came, that was the Age of the Cornerstone, the age where God placed on this planet Earth a Masterpiece; there came the perfection of the Work of God. And through that perfect Work of God, God carried out the redemption of the human being: The redemption of every person that has his name written in the Book of God there in Heaven.

And now, from Christ to until now, we have that God has placed “the foundation of the apostles and prophets, and as the chief Cornerstone Jesus Christ Himself”³⁰; we have all this foundation here.</sup>

And then we have the seven stages or ages of the gentile Church, which form the Mystical Body of Christ with the group of each age, during this time of the seven ages of the gentile Church, which form the Holy Place of that spiritual Temple.

From Christ to the messenger of the seventh age of the gentile Church, about two thousand years have passed, approximately; and until we get here, to the Age of the Cornerstone, we already have about two thousand years, for the Church of Jesus Christ —which has been going up from age to age— to reach the most glorious stage; where Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, just as He has been manifested from age to age through each angel messenger…, through whom He has been reflecting Himself and has been reflecting what the Second Coming of Christ will be: He has been reflecting what the Coming of the Angel of the Covenant veiled in human flesh on the Last Day will be, and what the Church of Jesus Christ in the Age of the Cornerstone will be.

Each Church age has represented what the Age of the Cornerstone will be, and each messenger has represented what the messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone will be; and each manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit in each angel messenger has represented, has reflected, what the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit in His Angel Messenger in the Age of the Cornerstone will be.

And now, the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ tells us on page 6 of the message “The Stature of a Perfect Man”³¹ in Spanish, he says:

“³¹ Now we are approaching The Seven Seals. We have just finished The Seven Church Ages. And this is a Message on teaching, that ties the man in, that’s going to be redeemed by the Blood of the Lord Jesus, and is going to be in that Church age, that Eternal Church age at the end of the Seals.”

Now, what is the Eternal Church Age? It is the Age of the Cornerstone, where He calls all His children in Revelation, chapter 4, telling them in verse 1, with that Voice of Trumpet: “Come up hither, and I will show you the things which must come to pass after these.”

The things that will happen after those that have already happened in the seven ages of the gentile Church, are shown where? In the Age of the Cornerstone, in the manifestation of the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, which is Jesus Christ Himself in Holy Spirit manifested through His Angel Messenger.

To ascend to the Age of the Cornerstone is to ascend to the Age of Adoption, where the sons and daughters of God will be adopted with an eternal and glorious body, for we who are alive will be changed and the dead in Christ will be resurrected.

Christ Jesus, notice, was found in the Age of the Cornerstone; His life and ministry was in the Age of the Cornerstone.

Notice, for the Old Testament we had the foundation of the patriarchs; then the prophets, of which John the Baptist was the last of the Old Testament prophets: He was the seventh prophet messenger of the seventh age of the Hebrew Church under the Law. And then came the Age of the Cornerstone, where Christ came as the messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone.

The Messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone was the Angel of the Lord manifested in human flesh in that veil of flesh called Jesus.

That is why John said… When they said to him: “Look, there is one who is the one of whom you testified…,”³² for John the Baptist was bearing witness of One who would come after him, of whom John was not worthy to untie the latchet of His shoes. He said: “I baptize you with water, as many as come repenting of their sins; but He who comes after me (that is, right after me), He will baptize you with Holy Spirit and Fire.”³³

Now, the disciples of the forerunner would obtain the baptism in water, but the disciples of the foreran would obtain the baptism in Holy Spirit and Fire, and thus obtain the new birth; because for the believers in Jesus Christ, repentant of their sins, who would wash their sins in the Blood of Christ, would be the promise of the Holy Spirit, thus to obtain the theophanic body of the sixth dimension and thus to obtain the new birth.

You see, the followers of John the Baptist who later didn’t follow Jesus: Didn’t receive the baptism of the Holy Spirit and, therefore, didn’t receive the new birth.

Saint Paul, in chapter 19 of the book of Acts, met some disciples of John the Baptist and asked them: “Did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed (or after you believed)?”, and they said: “We don’t even know that there is a Holy Spirit.” And then Saint Paul told them that John had preached and announced to the people to believe in Him who would come after him; that is, in Jesus the Christ.³⁴

And now, it’s not only to say: “I have received the forerunner.” It’s —in addition to receiving the forerunner— to receive the foreran; because a forerunner comes preparing the way for the one he is forerunning, so that those who believe in the forerunner may then believe in the foreran. And John the Baptist said that He was greater than he and that He was before him.

And when on one occasion he identified Him, for he had seen the Holy Spirit descending in the form of a dove upon Jesus, when he baptized Him…; and that was the sign that God had given him to know the One to whom he was preparing the way, that is, the Messiah. And John, when he saw that sign upon Jesus, the Holy Spirit descending in the form of a dove upon Jesus and remaining upon Jesus, he identified Him and said: “This is the One of whom I said would come after me. He who sent me to baptize said to me: ‘Upon the one whom you see the Holy Spirit descending in the form of a dove, that is Him.’ And I saw Him, and I have testified that it is Him.”³⁵

And he presented Jesus as the Messiah, and said: “Behold the Lamb of God, who takes away the sin of the world.”³⁶ “I knew Him not.”³⁷ But it was a great blessing for John to know Him. And when he got a good look at Him, he saw that He was his cousin; and it’s a very beautiful thing to see the blessing of God among the family.

Now, John the Baptist then, on another occasion, also, when he saw Jesus walking by the river bank there, he said: “Behold the Lamb of God.” And John the apostle and also Peter’s brother, Andrew, when they heard John saying that Jesus was the Lamb of God, what did they do? They left John and went with Jesus.³⁸

Now, were they wrong to leave John the Baptist, this mighty prophet, to leave the forerunner and go with Jesus? No. They did what all of John’s disciples had to do; because John came to prepare the way for the One who would come after him, so that all would believe in whom? In the One who would come after John.

Look, Andrew and John the apostle followed Jesus, and became two apostles of Jesus Christ. And those who stayed with John the Baptist… Let’s see. Of how many does the Scripture say that they were apostles (those who stayed with John)? None.

But of those who had believed in John the Baptist and then followed Jesus, we find that many were apostles of Jesus Christ; for not only John and Andrew believed in John the Baptist, but there were others of the apostles of Jesus Christ who had also believed in John the Baptist; and they were prepared to receive the Messiah, because John the Baptist spoke to them of One who would come after him. And when He appeared, then it was time for (those who followed John) to follow Jesus.

And now, when we find Jesus already beginning His ministry, and John also in his ministry preaching, one part followed John the Baptist and another part followed Jesus.

And now, news of the ministry of Jesus comes to John [the Baptist], and they say to John the Baptist: “Look, the one to whom you bore witness, now more people follow Him than you, and He baptizes more people than you.” John said, “It is convenient for Him to increase, and for me to decrease.”³⁹

And now, John the Baptist was in the seventh age of the Hebrew Church, and they had rejected him: The Hebrew religion had rejected him; they thought he was a madman.

Jesus said about John the Baptist, and about the Son of Man, He said: “John the Baptist came, who neither ate nor drank…” He doesn’t mean that he neither ate nor drank, but that he didn’t eat and drink like other human beings; for John ate locusts (and not from the beach, which are very expensive, but those grasshoppers), and wild honey, and water from the river or from some place where he could get it.

And Jesus says: “John the Baptist came, who neither ate nor drank, and they said: ‘He has demons.’ And now comes the Son of Man, who eats and drinks, and they say that he is a gluttonous man, a wine drinker, and a friend of publicans and harlots and all these kinds of people of low society.”⁴⁰ That is, John, because he neither ate nor drank, was said to have demons; and Jesus, because he ate and drank, was said to be a gluttonous man and a wine drinker. In other words, there is no way to understand people.

No one can please the unbelievers to convince them of the fulfillment of God’s Work according to the order established by God in the process of the Divine Program. He who is an unbeliever is an unbeliever even though God fulfills His Work before his eyes. But he who is of God, hears the Voice of God,⁴¹ and sees God’s Work, and sees the perfect order in which that Work is being fulfilled, and sees the process by which that Work is being carried out.

Now, see how it happened two thousand years ago. And what happened in Jesus of Nazareth was nothing less than God’s Work according to the divine order and divine process established since before the foundation of the world to be manifested.

Everything was according to the Work that God had thought of for the First Coming of Christ, and according to the order established by God since before the foundation of the world, and according to the process through which that Work of God had to pass; and so it has also been for the Church of Jesus Christ from stage to stage.

The Church of Jesus Christ for this end time couldn’t appear without going through this process of the seven stages or ages of the gentile Church. That is why the Church of Jesus Christ for the Age of the Cornerstone is in line with all this process through which God’s Work has been going in the midst of His Church.

Now, we can see that there is an established order for God’s Work in the midst of His Church from age to age.

The Age of the Cornerstone for the Church of Jesus Christ couldn’t come outside of this time in which we are living.

The Age of the Cornerstone couldn’t be fulfilled in any of these seven ages of the gentile Church, because it was in the process that would lead to the Age of the Cornerstone at the end.

And Christ, manifested through His messengers of each age, everything would lead to the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit in His Angel Messenger in the Age of the Cornerstone. And everything would lead to a new age and a new dispensation, where Jesus Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, would be manifested in the Last Day for the adoption of all of God’s children as individuals, and of the Church of Jesus Christ as Mystical Body of believers.

And now, for the Church of Jesus Christ to be adopted, notice: Just as Christ had to ascend to that age in His First Coming, and to be in that age, also the Church of Jesus Christ, our brother Branham says that she would be in that perfect age; he says… And remember that in that message he used this same diagram⁴² (here we have it in the little book, in the booklet); using that diagram, he places the Age of the Cornerstone as that perfect age. And being a perfect age, it is an age for all eternity; therefore, it will have an eternal Message.

And is there an eternal Message? Of course there is! And is it in the Bible that there is an eternal Message? Let’s see if there is an eternal Message. Revelation, chapter 14, verse 6 and on, says:

“And I saw another angel fly in the midst of heaven, having the everlasting gospel to preach unto them that dwell on the earth, and to every nation, and kindred, and tongue, and people,

Saying with a loud voice, Fear God, and give glory to him; for the hour of his judgment is come…”

In this Eternal Gospel the hour of divine judgment is preached, that is, the day of vengeance of our God is preached.

“…and worship him that made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and the fountains of waters.”

In other words, he teaches mankind to worship God, and tells mankind to worship God.

That Angel with the Eternal Gospel is the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ, the prophet messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone and of the Dispensation of the Kingdom.

Now, speaking of dispensations, since God has for His Work and in His Work an order and a process, God has dispensations, and in the dispensations He has ages; and He has for each age a messenger, and for each dispensation He has also a prophet messenger.

We find that, regarding dispensations, God has only seven dispensations; and as messengers, He has only seven dispensational prophets; and as dispensational Messages, He has seven dispensational Messages.

• The first dispensation is the Dispensation of Innocence, and its Message was the Message of Innocence; and its messenger, its prophet messenger was Adam.

• The second dispensation is the Dispensation of Consciousness (after the human being fell), and its Message is the Message of Consciousness; and its messenger was Seth, a prophet also.

Adam was a prophet, Seth was also a prophet.

• And now, the third dispensation is the Dispensation of Human Government, and its Message is the Message of Human Government; and its messenger is the prophet Noah.

• Then the fourth dispensation is the Dispensation of the Promise, the Message is the Message of the Promise; and its messenger is the prophet and patriarch Abraham.

• Then the fifth dispensation is the Dispensation of the Law, and its Message is the Message of the Law; and its dispensational prophet is the prophet Moses.

• And then the sixth dispensation is the Dispensation of Grace, the Message is the Message of Grace, the Gospel of Grace; and its dispensational messenger is Jesus.

• Then the seventh dispensation is the Dispensation of the Kingdom, and its Message is the Message of the Kingdom; and its messenger is the Angel of Jesus Christ.

And in those seven dispensational messengers has been the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, which is the Holy Spirit, manifested from dispensation to dispensation, carrying out the Work of each dispensation.

The messenger of a new dispensation appears at the end of each dispensation.

At the end of the Dispensation of the Law, there we had Jesus, the messenger of a new dispensation: The Dispensation of Grace.

And at the end of the Dispensation of Grace we must have here on Earth the messenger of the seventh dispensation: of the Dispensation of the Kingdom, in the manifestation of the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit through His Angel Messenger; for the Holy Spirit to open a new dispensation through His Angel Messenger, which is the Angel of Jesus Christ, the prophet of the Dispensation of the Kingdom with the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom. And thus every son and daughter of God be called, in and to the Age of the Cornerstone, to be able to see and understand all these things that must happen soon, in this end time; and to work in the Work of Christ in this Last Day to receive our adoption as individuals, which is the transformation of our body; and for the Church of Jesus Christ as Mystical Body, as Church, to receive her adoption here in the Age of the Cornerstone.

In other words, in the Age of the Cornerstone is the place where the Work that the Church of Jesus Christ and we as individuals perform in and according to the Program of God in God’s Work; is the work that in the end will cause us to be adopted as sons and daughters of God.

No person can be adopted if he has not carried out God’s Work pertaining to that time, working in the business of our heavenly Father.

Jesus Christ had to work in the business of our heavenly Father, already in the messianic ministry, for three years, and then on Mount Transfiguration to be adopted; and after that time of adoption He had a short time of some months, where already adopted He carried out a very important part of the Divine Program, which was what crowned the First Coming of Christ.

And so it is for every firstborn of God as an individual, for every son and daughter of God, in this end time; and so it is for the Church of Jesus Christ in this end time.

But don’t be worried, but rather, be working in the Work of Christ pertaining to this end time, in the Age of the Cornerstone; because those are the businesses of our Lord Jesus Christ in which we would be working in this end time, according to the divine order for the adoption and according to the divine process, which will take a certain amount of time, where we as individuals, and the Mystical Body of Christ as Church, in the Age of the Cornerstone will be working in the Work relevant to the Age of the Cornerstone, to be adopted after we fully carry out that work and every last one of God’s elect enters the Age of the Cornerstone.

See, with that work being done by the Church of Jesus Christ as the Mystical Body in the Age of the Cornerstone, and us as individuals, all of God’s elect in the Age of the Cornerstone are being called and gathered to receive our adoption.

Now, see how there is a Divine Work to be carried out from age to age and from dispensation to dispensation, which God determined, thought of and predestined (that is, ordained) to be carried out; all that in His Mind. And He also placed an order to carry out that Work, that labor; and He placed a process. In other words, this Work of God will go from stage to stage.

We can’t ignore those stages through which God’s Work goes through; because that is the process through which God’s Work goes through, according to the order established by God.

And just as there was —in the order established by God and process established by God in God’s Work for each age— an age, a messenger and a Message; and a people that would receive that Message and would become part of that age; and there was a manifestation of the Spirit of God, the Spirit of Christ, in the messenger: Now for the Age of the Cornerstone there is a Message: the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, there is a messenger: the Angel of Jesus Christ, and there is a manifestation of the Holy Spirit: the manifestation of the Holy Spirit, of the Angel of the Covenant, of Jesus Christ, in His Angel Messenger; and there is a people that in the Last Day, just as that people was in the first age in Asia Minor; in the second, third, fourth, fifth and sixth: in Europe; in the seventh: in North America; now there is a people that will be in this end time, which will ascend to the Age of the Cornerstone, and which will be in the Latin American and Caribbean territory.

That is why the blessing of Christ for the Age of the Cornerstone in this Last Day, in the Work, order and process of His Program, has fallen where? In Latin America and the Caribbean.

And now, in the Age of the Cornerstone is where He places all His elect, all those who will be adopted, will be transformed, in this end time. But before receiving that adoption, we have to be working in the business of our Lord Jesus Christ pertaining to the Age of the Cornerstone; as the departed ones worked in the business pertaining to each age, who will be resurrected in eternal bodies.

And now, we have seen: “GOD’S ORDER AND PROCESS IN HIS WORK FROM BEGINNING TO END.”

And now, we are living in the end of time, we are living in the Last Day, which is the seventh millennium, if we add to the calendar the years of delay that it has. And we are living in the Age of the Cornerstone, working in the business of our Lord Jesus Christ, in His Mystical Body of believers in the Age of the Cornerstone, carrying the Message, so that all the elect of God of this Last Day may be called and gathered; and living in the Age of the Cornerstone, receiving the relevant Word of Christ for this end time, being well fed in the House of God (which is His Church) in the Age of the Cornerstone, with the spiritual food of the Word of God for the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom; with the spiritual food represented in the hidden manna that Moses and Aaron placed in a golden vessel, and carried it into the most holy place, and placed it inside the ark of the covenant.⁴³

And now, since the Age of the Cornerstone is represented in the most holy place, it is in the Age of the Cornerstone that Christ gives us of the hidden Manna, as He said: “To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden Manna.”⁴⁴ It is the hidden Manna of the divine revelation of the Word of God: The divine revelation of the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Reclaiming Work.

That is the hidden Manna for all the sons and daughters of God of this end time. It is the hidden Manna that He gives us as spiritual food in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, in the order and process of God in His Work relevant to this end time.

And now, after having received the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ in the seventh age of the gentile Church; then, those who will be receiving and following the foreran and his Message (which will be the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord coming in the Last Day in human flesh), have the promise that they will receive the fullness of the Spirit of God, that is, the adoption, that is, the transformation of our bodies.

The forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, speaking of the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, thus said on page 256 of the book of The Seals:⁴⁵

“196 But when our Lord appears here on earth, He’ll be riding on a snow-white horse. And He’ll be completely, fully, the Emmanuel, the Word of God incarnate in a Man.”

If we find that man in the Age of the Cornerstone, which is the Angel of Jesus Christ, we will be finding the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, which is the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit, manifesting Himself through human flesh in His Angel Messenger in the Age of the Cornerstone; we will be finding the white horse Rider of Revelation 19 coming in the Last Day.

And the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, when he spoke of this white horse Rider of Revelation 19, he through the dreams and visions that he had (and also that other people had): we find that he presents Him as the white horse Rider, where the Reverend William Branham appears in dreams on a white horse; that is representing the Coming of the white horse Rider of Revelation 19.

Because in the prophets of God —in the Old Testament and also in the New Testament— the Second Coming of Christ coming on a white horse has been reflected, has been represented; as the First Coming of Christ had also been represented in the prophets of the Old Testament.

When the prophet and King David said: “They pierced my hands and my feet. I can count all my bones,”⁴⁶ there he was reflecting the First Coming of Christ in the Old Testament prophets. And so we find that in the prophets that God has sent, not only the First Coming of Christ has been reflected, but the Second Coming of Christ.

Now, where will this white horse Rider come from? From which part of planet Earth, for it is the Coming of the Angel of the Covenant, the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords. That is why He has on His garment and on His thigh this name written: King of kings and Lord of lords, and also His Name is called the Word of God. And in the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God; and that Word became flesh and dwelt among men, in the midst of the Hebrew people, in a veil of flesh called Jesus.⁴⁷

And now, for the Last Day, the Coming of that white horse Rider of Revelation 19 will be the Coming of the Word made flesh again: The Word made flesh in a man.

Two thousand years ago, in order to see the Word made flesh, you had to find the veil of flesh called Jesus. And for the Last Day, to see the Word again, the Angel of the Covenant, coming manifested in human flesh in the Last Day as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Reclaiming Work, with the title of King of kings and Lord of lords, Son of Man, Son of David: We have to find the veil of flesh. If we don’t find the veil of flesh, then we will never find the manifestation of Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, in human flesh in the Last Day.

Now, look, the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ also spoke to us on page 146 of the book of The Seals about this great event, and also showed us that by that time the devil would also be manifested in flesh in another man. And now, look how he shows it here: Page 146 of the book of The Seals says:⁴⁸

“^[401] …he comes as the very devil himself, incarnate. See? There he is.

⁴⁰² And at the same time that this devil falls out of Heaven and becomes incarnate in a man, the Holy Spirit goes up and comes down in carnate men.”

And now, how is He going to ascend and why is He going to ascend? The Holy Spirit has been from age to age manifesting Himself through different messengers, through different men: He has been ascending from age to age; and after the seventh age, where He was manifested in human flesh in the Reverend William Branham, He ascends to the Age of the Cornerstone and comes incarnated in His Angel Messenger.

On the other hand, the devil is going to incarnate, he will be incarnated in another man; and there will be a confrontation at a certain time, as Revelation, chapter 17 and verse 14 shows, a confrontation appears there; and also in Revelation, chapter 19 (Revelation chapter 19), it shows a confrontation.

Let’s see that confrontation here: Revelation, chapter 19, verse 19, it says:

“And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army.”

The antichrist, the beast, which will be the devil incarnated in another man, will rise up against the Holy Spirit, against the Angel of the Covenant, against Jesus Christ, against the Word incarnated in a man.

And now, the Word comes as the white horse Rider of Revelation 19. And the antichrist (the beast, the devil) comes incarnated in another man, as the yellow horse rider of Revelation, chapter 6, verses 7 to 8; and his name is Death, and hell follows him. Who? The yellow horse and the rider of the yellow horse of Revelation, chapter 6, verses 7 to 8.

Now we can see that this manifestation of these two riders, each on a horse: One on a yellow horse (the antichrist, the beast) and the other on a white horse (Christ, the Angel of the Covenant); now, that confrontation, we have also seen it there in Revelation, chapter 19, verse 19.

And in Revelation, chapter 17, verse 13 to 14, it also shows that confrontation; 11 to 14, it says:

“And the beast that was, and is not, even he is the eighth, and is of the seven, and goeth into perdition (See? Why? because hell follows him).

And the ten horns which thou sawest are ten kings, which have received no kingdom as yet; but receive power as kings one hour with the beast.

These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.

These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.”

And they come from where? From Heaven, because they are those who have their theophanic bodies in Heaven, in the sixth dimension; they are the ones born of Heaven, they are the ones redeemed by the Blood of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ: Both those who have already departed and those who are living in this end time here on Earth.

And now, from where and where will the white horse Rider of Revelation 19 be manifested, the Word coming in the Last Day, who has by name The Word of God, and has written on His thigh and on His vesture: King of kings and Lord of lords? On page 166, verse 1485, of the book of Quotations, which contains an excerpt from the message “God’s only provided place of worship” (page 1 and 2)⁴⁹; let’s look at this excerpt here, where it says:</sup>

“Now, there’s…I was…getting pretty old, and I thought, ‘Will I…Will there be another revival, I’ll see another time?’ And just remember, from the west will come a white horse rider. We’ll ride this trail again.”

If it is a promise, it has to be in the Bible.

It is in the Bible, in Revelation, chapter 19: The white horse Rider of Revelation 19, whose name is The Word of God, and He has written on His thigh and on His vesture: King of kings and Lord of lords; and out of His mouth proceeds a sharp two-edged Sword, which is the Word of God; and He comes upon a white horse, which is the pure Word of God. In the power of the pure Word comes the white horse Rider of Revelation 19; comes the Word, the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit, manifesting Himself through human flesh in His Angel Messenger.

And where does this white horse Rider come from? From the occident, which is the West, which is the American continent. And the American continent consists of North America, Central America, South America and the Caribbean. And already in North America the seventh age of the gentile Church has been fulfilled; only Central America, South America and the Caribbean are left for this white horse Rider of Revelation 19 to be manifested; and that is the Word incarnated in a man.

In the Latin American and Caribbean continent will be that veil of flesh where the Word will be incarnated in a man, which will be the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ, messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom.

Now, we have seen that God gave us more light through the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, showing us that it would be from the West that the white horse Rider of Revelation 19 would come; in other words, the Coming of Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, in the Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone. And that is why the Age of the Coming of the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, is fulfilled where? In Latin America and the Caribbean.

That is where the Age of the Cornerstone is fulfilled; and that is where the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, which is the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, God Himself with His theophanic body, will be manifested in human flesh through His Angel Messenger, speaking to us all these things that must happen soon; and that is how we will be seeing and hearing the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, which is the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, the Holy Spirit coming in the Last Day: The Holy Spirit ascending, ascending to the Age of the Cornerstone, and the Holy Spirit coming incarnate in a man, which is His Angel Messenger.

We have seen this great mystery of the Work of God promised for this end time.

And just as the Work of God relevant to each age and each dispensation was fulfilled according to the order established by God, and had to go through the corresponding process, now we are seeing the Work of Christ promised for this end time, for the Age of the Cornerstone; and we have been seeing the order that would be fulfilled to carry out the Work of God relevant to the Age of the Cornerstone; and we have also seen the process through which the Work of Christ relevant to the Age of the Cornerstone would be going through.

We have seen that none of these three things can be evaded: The order can’t be evaded, the process can’t be evaded and the Work of God can’t be evaded.

Even if at the moment the person doesn’t understand it, but he begins to pray to God, and continues reading the Word, the messages; and as he continues reading, God opens his understanding; as He opened the understanding of His disciples when He resurrected, who didn’t understand that He was Jesus, but He opened the Scriptures and showed them the whole process through which He —the Messiah— had to go through.⁵⁰ And that was according to the order that God had already established for the First Coming of Christ.

And now, in the Work of God that would be carried out in this end time, you see, there was a process through which that Work had to go through and there was an order established by God; it can’t be out of that order.

For example, the Coming of the white horse Rider of Revelation 19 can’t be fulfilled outside the Western continent, which is the American continent; and the seventh age has already been fulfilled in North America, and only Latin America and the Caribbean remain for the Coming of the white horse Rider of Revelation 19 to be fulfilled; and it has to be through one, through a veil of flesh, from that territory.

In other words, a veil of flesh can’t come from another territory, and God fulfill through that veil of flesh from another territory what He has promised in Revelation 19, which is the Coming of the Word, the Word, coming in human flesh on the Last Day as King of kings and Lord of lords.

The Work of God that was predestined, was thought and ordained by God since before the foundation of the world, also has an order to be fulfilled and has a process, in the fulfillment of that Work. In other words, neither can a man appear who has been working in anything else but the Work of God, and say that the Angel of the Covenant is in him manifested and that he is the messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone; it can’t be so.

He has to be the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ; and he has to be working in the business of his heavenly Father, the business of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ; and he has to be the messenger of that age, and know the Message of that age, and be the giver of that Message to the people of God; and through which Christ in Holy Spirit calls and gathers His elect in the Age of the Cornerstone.

In other words, it must be according to the divine order, and he must be a prophet: “For the Lord God will do nothing, except He first reveals His secrets to His servants the prophets”⁵¹; and he must be a dispensational prophet.</sup>

And now, notice, it must be according to divine order. All revelation must always come (to whom?) to a prophet.

And all revelation for the Dispensation of the Kingdom and for the Age of the Cornerstone in this end time, must come through a prophet; and that must be the prophet of the Dispensation of the Kingdom and of the Age of the Cornerstone.

And this is the first occasion in which Jesus Christ sends to His Church a dispensational prophet, and He sends him in the Age of the Cornerstone. The other messengers, although among them there were prophets like Saint Paul and also Martin and also the Reverend William Branham, none of them were dispensational prophets. That is why the prophet of the Dispensation of the Kingdom is different from the messengers of the seven ages of the gentile Church; and that is why the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, will be manifested in a greater form than the manifestation that He had in the seven angel messengers; and it will be the Word incarnate, the Word, the Angel of the Covenant, incarnated in a man: His Angel Messenger.

And now, we can see that this Angel Messenger will have the manifestation of this Angel that was different from the rest, which is the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, Jesus Christ in His theophanic body, Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit, who has the Seventh Seal; and the Seventh Seal is the Second Coming of Christ.

And for this Angel to have His ministry here on Earth, in the fulfillment of the Seventh Seal being fulfilled on Earth, it has to be in the same way that the seven angel messengers did, that these angel messengers of the seven ages did, which are here in their theophanic bodies, in this cloud formed by eight angels: These seven angel messengers, who are here in their theophanic bodies, in order to have their ministries here on Earth had to come in human flesh, and thus have their ministries in the age in which they lived.

And now, for the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, the Angel that was different from the rest, who has the Seventh Seal: To have His ministry and fulfill the Seventh Seal, He has to come in human flesh in His Angel Messenger in this end time. And that will be the Holy Spirit in human flesh in the Last Day, the Angel of the Covenant in human flesh, the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, coming in human flesh; that will be the Word, the Word incarnate in a man.

And that will be the Coming of the Mighty Angel that descends from Heaven, who appeared here in this cloud,⁵² coming in human flesh in the Last Day in His manifestation, to speak to His Church first and then to the Hebrew people.

Now, we have seen the mystery of “GOD’S ORDER AND PROCESS IN HIS WORK FROM BEGINNING TO END.”

And what more can we say? Well, that the Church of Jesus Christ will come to total perfection, with her members of past ages and those of this end time, those of us who are alive being transformed and the dead in Christ being resurrected in eternal bodies; which will soon happen: When the work of the Church of Jesus Christ as the Mystical Body of believers in the Age of the Cornerstone is finished, which will cause her to be adopted.

And the members of the Mystical Body of Christ in the Age of the Cornerstone, when they finish or we finish the work that Christ has entrusted to us, and until the last of the elect is called and gathered, gathered in the Age of the Cornerstone, then Christ will come forth from the Throne of Intercession in Heaven, and the dead in Christ will be resurrected in eternal bodies, and we who are alive will be transformed; and thus we will be adopted.

Because that is the adoption for the sons and daughters of God: It is the transformation of our bodies for us who live, and the resurrection of the dead in Christ into eternal bodies. It is the adoption of the body, the redemption of the body.⁵³ And so in this end time we will have on this planet Earth millions of human beings with eternal bodies, which are the dead in Christ who will be resurrected in eternal bodies and we the living who will be transformed.

And we will be here on Earth from 30 to 40 days, just as Jesus Christ after He was adopted was in His ministry a few months here on Earth; and even when Christ died and resurrected, then He was also here on Earth already resurrected, and the saints who resurrected with Him⁵⁴ (of the Old Testament), all were here on Earth for about 40 days⁵⁵; and then they ascended to Heaven and went to the House of our heavenly Father.56</sup>

So we will also be afterwards, with the eternal body, from 30 to 40 days here on Earth, where things will be happening that no human being imagined could happen; because God will be there in a manifestation in all His fullness, on a greater scale, at the level of adopted sons and daughters of God, with all the power and authority that Adam and Eve lost there in the fall.

In other words, we will all be like our beloved Lord Jesus Christ: With all the power and authority, and with eternal bodies; and thus we will be in the image and likeness of Jesus Christ: that is, “in the image,” that is, with the theophanic body; and “in the likeness,” that is, with the new, eternal, glorified physical body; to live for all eternity.

Now, we can see the great blessing that has been allotted to us in Latin America and the Caribbean, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, in “GOD’S ORDER AND PROCESS IN HIS WORK FROM BEGINNING TO END.”

We have seen how God has had an order and process being carried out (where?) in His Work that He has been carrying out, according to the Work that He since before the foundation of the world proposed Himself to carry out.

And now we are the ones who receive the benefit of God’s Work relevant to the Last Day, according to the order and process of His Work that is being carried out in this end time.

And where are those who in the Last Day would be seeing the Work of God being carried out, and would be seeing the order and process through which that Work would be going through in this Last Day? Well, here we are, in Latin America and the Caribbean, in this Last Day; thanking Christ for His blessing and for carrying out His Work in Latin America and the Caribbean in this end time, in the Age of the Cornerstone.

May the blessings of Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, be upon you and me; and may we all soon be transformed and raptured and taken to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Heaven. In the Eternal Name of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ. Amen and amen.

It has been a great privilege for me to be with you on this occasion, showing you: “GOD’S ORDER AND PROCESS IN HIS WORK FROM BEGINNING TO END.”

May God’s blessings continue with all of you all this day, and all the days of your life, from now and for all eternity.

I leave again with us Reverend Miguel Bermudez Marin to continue on this occasion.

May God bless you and keep you all, and thank you very much for your kind attention.

(Well, God bless you, Miguel, and may God continue to bless you all).

“GOD’S ORDER AND PROCESS IN HIS WORK FROM THE BEGINNING TO END.”
