May the blessings of Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, be upon each of you and upon myself as well, the blessings of the biblical Birthright that are promised in the Word of God. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
And now we read the Scripture in Genesis, chapter 48, verses 8 to 22, when Jacob blessed Joseph’s children; and it says, chapter 48, verses 8 and on… This was when Jacob was elderly and only had a few years left to live on Earth. It says:
“And Israel beheld Joseph’s sons, and said, Who are these?
And Joseph said unto his father, They are my sons, whom God hath given me in this place. And he said, Bring them, I pray thee, unto me, and I will bless them.
Now the eyes of Israel were dim for age, so that he could not see. And he brought them near unto him; and he kissed them, and embraced them.
And Israel said unto Joseph, I had not thought to see thy face: and, lo, God hath shewed me also thy seed.
And Joseph brought them out from between his knees, and he bowed himself with his face to the earth.
And Joseph took them both, Ephraim in his right hand toward Israel’s left hand, and Manasseh in his left hand toward Israel’s right hand, and brought them near unto him.
And Israel stretched out his right hand, and laid it upon Ephraim’s head, who was the younger, and his left hand upon Manasseh’s head, guiding his hands wittingly; for Manasseh was the firstborn.
And he blessed Joseph, and said, God, before whom my fathers Abraham and Isaac did walk, the God which fed me all my life long unto this day,
The Angel which redeemed me from all evil, bless the lads; and let my name be named on them, and the name of my fathers Abraham and Isaac; and let them grow into a multitude in the midst of the earth.
And when Joseph saw that his father laid his right hand upon the head of Ephraim, it displeased him: and he held up his father’s hand, to remove it from Ephraim’s head unto Manasseh’s head.
And Joseph said unto his father, Not so, my father: for this is the firstborn; put thy right hand upon his head.
And his father refused, and said, I know it, my son, I know it: he also shall become a people, and he also shall be great: but truly his younger brother shall be greater than he, and his seed shall become a multitude of nations.
And he blessed them that day, saying, In thee shall Israel bless, saying, God make thee as Ephraim and as Manasseh: and he set Ephraim before Manasseh.
And Israel said unto Joseph, Behold, I die: but God shall be with you, and bring you again unto the land of your fathers.
Moreover I have given to thee one portion above thy brethren, which I took out of the hand of the Amorite with my sword and with my bow.”
The topic for next Sunday will be, in the Bible school: “THE BLESSING CONTAINED IN THE BIRTHRIGHT.”
Today we will only have the introduction of the topic of the Bible school for next Sunday, God willing.
“THE BLESSING CONTAINED IN THE BIRTHRIGHT.”
The Blessing of the Birthright has an inheritance in Heaven and Earth; that is why it was so important to Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph, and also for Joseph’s children: Ephraim and Manasseh, the Blessing of the Birthright, that would pass from Abraham, Isaac, Jacob and his children Ephraim and Manasseh.
That is why in First of Chronicles, chapter 5, verse 1 to 2, says:
“Now the sons of Reuben the firstborn of Israel, (for he was the firstborn; but forasmuch as he defiled his father’s bed, his birthright was given unto the sons of Joseph the son of Israel: and the genealogy is not to be reckoned after the birthright.
For Judah prevailed above his brethren, and of him came the chief ruler; but the birthright was Joseph’s:)…”
The rights of the Birthright belong to Joseph, and the greatest Blessing of the Birthright correspond to Ephraim and Manasseh; and above all, Ephraim has the greater blessing in the Birthright; and consequently, there is a great blessing in Joseph for Israel, in the tribe of Joseph, that corresponds to the Birthright, the Blessing of the Birthright.
For the establishment of the restoration of the Kingdom of God on Earth, the Blessing of the Birthright corresponds to the tribe of Joseph, and above all, to the tribe of Israel… and above all, to the tribe of Ephraim. That is why he, when the Kingdom of God was placed on Earth, the Kingdom of David was the Kingdom established with the tribe of Judah first, along with the tribe that joined the tribe of Judah, which was the tribe of Benjamin; but then, for the consolidation of the Kingdom of God on Earth the ten tribes of the north joined in the unification of that Kingdom, which are also governed by David.
And when David’s Kingdom was broken, the ten tribes of the north passed on to be the tribes of Roboam and consequently – or Jeroboam, to whom those ten tribes were given to when there was a rupture in the kingdom; and the kingdom was left divided into two kingdoms: the kingdom of the north with Jeroboam as king, and the two tribes of the south (the tribe of Judah with the tribe that joined the tribe of Judah: the tribe of Benjamin).
But for the restoration of the Kingdom promised in Ezekiel, chapter 37, the tribes of the north must join the tribes of Judah and Benjamin. Consequently, the union must come from behalf of God for the restoration of the Kingdom of David on Earth in the end time, in the Last Day.
For which, that blessing must come from behalf of God so that those two sticks join: the stick of Ephraim (or Joseph in the hand of Ephraim) and the stick of Judah, for the consolidation of the Kingdom of God on Earth.
The Kingdom of God on Earth is the Kingdom of David; and consequently, the Coming of the Messiah must take place so that the two sticks may be in the hand of the Messiah and so the restoration of the Kingdom of God on Earth is consolidated. Of which we will speak of next Sunday in the Bible study of: “THE BLESSING CONTAINED IN THE BIRTHRIGHT.”
It has been a great privilege for me to be with you on this occasion, in the introduction of the Blessing of the Birthright contained in the Divine Program, in “THE BLESSING CONTAINED IN THE BIRTHRIGHT;” of which we will speak about in detail next Sunday in the morning Bible school, to see what is in the Blessing of the Birthright.
Today, this evening we only had the introduction to THE BLESSING OF THE BIRTHRIGHT, the blessing contained there in this Blessing of the Birthright that corresponds to the Messiah-Prince for the reestablishment of the Kingdom of David on Earth.
May the blessings of God contained in the Blessing of the Birthright be upon each one of you and upon myself. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
If there is a person that has not yet received Christ as Savior, here or in other countries, that are listening in this occasion, you may come to the Feet of Christ to receive Him as Savior; and we will be praying for each one of you so Christ may receive you in His Kingdom.
Let us wait a few minutes so that here and in other countries you may come to the Feet of Christ, those that have not yet received Christ, and you may receive Him on this occasion.
And the children of 10 years of age and on may also come to the Feet of Christ our Savior, so Christ may receive you in His Kingdom and adopt you in His Kingdom.
Let us wait a few minutes so the ones that have not yet come to the Feet of Christ our Savior may do so now.
Let us stand up to pray for the persons that are coming to the Feet of Christ on this occasion.
With our heads bowed and our eyes closed:
Heavenly Father, I come to You in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ with all of these people that are receiving Christ as only and sufficient Savior. Receive them in Your Kingdom. I pray in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
And now, those that have come to the Feet of Christ, you may repeat this prayer:
Lord Jesus Christ, I have heard the preaching of the Gospel of Christ, Your Gospel, and Your faith was born in my soul.
I pray you receive me in Your Kingdom. I pray you produce in me the salvation and give me everlasting life. Your faith was born in my heart.
And I give public testimony of my faith in You and Your faith in me, and I receive You as my only and sufficient Savior.
Forgive my sins and with Your Blood, cleanse me of all sin; and baptize me with Holy Ghost and Fire after I am baptized in water in Your Name, and produce in me the new birth. I pray to You in Your Eternal and glorious Name, Lord Jesus Christ.
And now, all that have received Christ as Savior may be baptized on this occasion, since Christ said: “He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.”
The salvation and everlasting life from behalf of Christ for every person is as simple as that. That is why He said: “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.” [Mark 16:15-16]
It is a matter of believing and receiving everlasting life; and it is a matter of not believing: be damned. Therefore, all that have believed may be baptized; and may Christ baptize you with Holy Ghost and Fire, and produce in you the new birth.
In the baptism in water the person is identified with Christ in His death, burial and resurrection. Therefore, every person that was eternally in Christ as a divine attribute, when Christ came, we also came with Him as the seed of God in Christ. We were in Christ, just as we were in our earthly parents when our earthly parents came to Earth; and were born humanly from our earthly parents.
We were in them, but for a temporary life here on Earth; which we are thankful that our parents had us, and our grandparents and great grandparents, that had us in their genes. But now we are manifested here to have free will and to receive Christ so He may give us everlasting life, thus to confirm our place in the everlasting life with Christ and live eternally in the Kingdom of Christ, of our Savior.
That is the divine purpose for which we are here on Earth. That is why He has allowed us to hear the Gospel: so that His faith is born in us and we believe, and receive Him as our only and sufficient Savior, and give us everlasting life.
He said: “He that believes my Word and believes in Who sent me, has everlasting life.” [John 6:47] “And they shall never perish. My Father, which gave them me, is greater than all.” And He has given us, consequently, everlasting life. “My sheep hear my voice, and they follow me, and I know them: And I give unto them eternal life.” [John 10:27]
The Gospel is preached to give us everlasting life, so that we may hear His Voice through the Gospel, and for Him to give us everlasting life. We have come to Earth for that purpose: to receive everlasting life through Christ our Savior.
You may be baptized; and may Christ baptize you with Holy Ghost and Fire, and produce in you the new birth. And we will see each other eternally in the Kingdom of Christ our Savior.
May you all have a good evening; and Christ continue blessing you greatly in His Kingdom.
I leave with you reverend Jose Benjamin Perez, and in the rest of the countries I leave the corresponding minister so he may tell you what to do to be baptized in water in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, as it was done in the time of the apostles and as it is continued to be done with all who receive Christ as personal Savior.
Continue having a happy evening, filled with the blessings of Christ our Savior. And until next Sunday, God willing, that I will be with you in the Sunday Bible school, God willing.
And with the ministers that will meet tomorrow in different places, I will be transmitting to Miguel Bermudez Marin if he is at the ministers’ meeting tomorrow, God willing.
Continue having a happy evening, filled with the blessings of Christ our Savior. With you the reverend Jose Benjamin Perez, and the corresponding minister in each country.
May God bless you and keep you, and may the blessings of the Birthright be upon each one of you, become a reality in each one of you.
I leave with you reverend Jose Benjamin Perez present here.
As reverend Jose Benjamin Perez arrives: Pray very much for next Sunday’s Bible school, God willing, so He may open the Scriptures and our understanding as well, under this topic we will have next Sunday.
God bless you and keep you all.
