Good morning, young people here in Santa Martha, Federal District, here in Mexico. It is a great blessing to be with you, to share with you some moments of fellowship around the Word of God and His Program for this Last Day, in which we are living.
We are living in a time parallel to the days of Noah, the days of Abraham, the days of Moses, and the days of Jesus. In other words, they are days in which God sent a dispensational prophet in the past to make that dispensational intertwining, and now we are also living in a dispensational intertwining; and that is why Jesus said it would be like in the days of Noah and like in the days of Lot1.
In Lot’s day, there was a dispensational intertwining there, for Abraham was the dispensational prophet there. And we are also living as in the days of Moses, where Christ would be carrying out a third exodus to take His Church to the promised land of the new body and to the promised land of the glorious Millennial Kingdom.
And the sign of the new land, the promised land, is the manifestation of the Son of Man; that is the sign of the new land.
And now, among the disciples of Jesus, notice, there were older people, there were also young people and there were also children.
Saint John was one of the young men; he was the one who laid his head on the Lord’s bosom2
Well, look, they were the ones who were attentive to Jesus in many things, such as when they went to prepare a place for Him in Samaria, when Jesus was going to Jerusalem but had to make a stop (perhaps the day before or days before) to continue the journey afterwards. They didn’t want to receive Him in Samaria, in a certain place in Samaria; and then John and Jacob came, and said to Him3: “Lord, do you want us to send fire down from heaven, as Elijah did?”
They were very young, and then, instead of letting Jesus be the one to decide and do things, they also wanted to do something; and they were always looking for…, in other words, they admired Elijah’s ministry very much; and —look— everyone wanted to do like Elijah. And now, they want to do like Elijah, who sent fire down from heaven and destroyed them all, those who went to seek him in prison (was it, right?); he did that for two or three occasions4. And now, John and Jacob (in other words, James) already want to do the same; they were looking for the ministry of Elijah.
That ministry has always been sought out by many people; but God has not given it to all people who have been seeking it, but to those who have been predestined by God to have that ministry manifested in them, which would be manifested five times. And of those five times, we find that they have been men chosen by God for that purpose, in whom these ministries have been manifested; in other words, they have already been prophets chosen by God and sent to carry out the Work relevant to the Last Day (in other words, God through them).
And now, John and James wanted those ministries: they wanted the ministry of Elijah. On another occasion, well, they wanted the ministry of Elijah and Moses: when they saw them there on Mount Transfiguration, then they went down, they told everything to their mother; and then the mother comes with them5… because Christ is showing them there the Coming of the Kingdom of God and the Son of Man coming in His Kingdom; and when they see all that, they already knew that in the Coming of the Kingdom of God, Moses and Elijah would be present.
And as they saw that Jesus… When they asked Him: “When is the Kingdom of God going to come?”, He told them: “The Kingdom of God is among you6”; therefore, Elijah and Moses had to be there too; but that was a prophecy for the Last Day.
All ministries were in Jesus, so not only Elijah’s but Moses and all the prophets, because He is the owner of all the ministries. From Him come all the ministries and all the spirits of the prophets and all the spirits of all the children of God.
Now, John and James tell their mother, they come to Jesus with their mother to ask for that position in the Kingdom, to the right and left of the Lord in the Kingdom of God; and Jesus tells them that it is not for Him to give it, but to those to whom it is prepared; in other words, not to the one who wants it or to the one who runs to reach and ask for that position, but to the one who is ordained by God.
That promise goes together with Revelation, chapter 3, verse 21, which says: “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.” That position of sitting on the right and on the left corresponds to that position of sitting with Christ on His Throne.
And now, that position is not of Jesus Christ to give to them, but to whomever that position is ordained by God. And to have or be placed in that position, sitting in the Kingdom of God, on the Throne of God or on the Throne of Christ, he must then have those ministries of the right and left; because with those ministries of the right and left (that of Moses and Elijah), with those ministries for the right: for the blessing (of whom?) of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, which is the spiritual Ephraim; and for the blessing of the left: for 144.000 Hebrews, which correspond to Manasseh. See? But they wanted that position.
And it is not wrong to desire a good position in the Kingdom of God, but one must be aware that those ministries are not given to those who want to have a ministry, but to those who are ordained by God since before the foundation of the world.
God doesn’t send a prophet because that prophet says: “I want to be a prophet,” but because God commanded it from since before the foundation of the world, and placed the two consciousness together, and places in him a spirit of a prophet to operate in him; and so he comes with the two consciousness together.
And he doesn’t have to do anything: he doesn’t have to study to learn how to operate the two consciousness together, he does not have to go to learn how he can hear the Voice of God; already that, he comes with the equipment inside, and he can do nothing to avoid hearing from God.
The thing is not to try to hear from God, but rather, he can’t avoid hearing from God; it is inevitable. And he can’t stop talking about what God puts in his mouth; that is inevitable. And he can’t speak it otherwise, because he can’t speak it otherwise; as he receives it, so he must give it.
Now, from age to age, notice, God has sent His messengers. For the Dispensation of the Law back then, the prophets through whom God spoke; and He also sent the prophet Moses, the prophet for the entire dispensation; and then He sent John the Baptist, at the end, in the seventh age of the Hebrew Church under the Law; and then Jesus appeared in the Age of the Cornerstone; an age, the Age of the Cornerstone, eternal age, where the Dispensation of Grace is intertwined with the Dispensation of the Law, and where the dead of the Old Testament resurrected with Christ.
All the Work of God for that time was in the Age of the Cornerstone, the Age of the Coming of the Son of Man, the Age of the Coming of the Stone not cut by hands. And so it is for our time, in which we live.
We are living in the Age of the Cornerstone; God already sent His forerunner, the messenger forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, the Reverend William Branham, with the spirit and power of Elijah; and now we are enjoying the Age of the Cornerstone, and hearing the Voice of Christ making known to us all these things which must happen soon and testifying to us that all these things which are written must be fulfilled.
And those that are written of the Son of Man for His Coming in this Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone, all have to be fulfilled; because every Scripture has to be fulfilled in the Coming of the Son of Man, all the Scriptures of the Last Day, because they are linked to the Coming of the Son of Man.
Now, notice, just as Christ said that what was written of Him had fulfillment, He also said in Revelation, chapter 22, verse 16:
“I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches.”
And everything that is written of the Angel of Jesus Christ, has fulfillment for this end time.
Everything that is written of His Angel has to be fulfilled, because through His Angel is that Jesus Christ will be working in this end time, He will be speaking to His Church and making known to her all these things that must happen soon; and thus He will be revealing Himself to His Church through His Angel Messenger, as He revealed Himself in each age through each angel messenger of the seven ages of the gentile Church.
And now, what was written of each messenger and was in the mind of God, had to be fulfilled; it would have fulfillment in the age in which God sent each messenger.
And now, for our time, well, everything that has been spoken of the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ has fulfillment, so that all the Divine Program relevant to this end time may be fulfilled.
And being that we are in the time of harvest, of the gathering of the elect of the Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone, we —together with the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ— would be working in the Work of Christ.
See how Christ, back then with His disciples, speaking in chapter 4, verse 34 and on, of John, tells them:
“Jesus saith unto them, My meat is to do the will of him that sent me, and to finish his work.
Say not ye, There are yet four months, and then cometh harvest? behold, I say unto you, Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields; for they are white already to harvest.
And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal: that both he that soweth and he that reapeth may rejoice together.
And herein is that saying true, One soweth, and another reapeth.
I sent you to reap that whereon ye bestowed no labour: other men laboured, and ye are entered into their labours.
And many of the Samaritans of that city believed on him for the saying of the woman, which testified, He told me all that ever I did.”
Now see how Christ tells us that there, in the time of His disciples, He sent them to reap, in other words, to harvest; and they came reaping everything that Moses and the prophets had sown in the Old Testament, under the Dispensation of the Law. Now Jesus comes with His apostles and sends them to harvest, to gather; and they began to gather from the Dispensation of the Law and place them within the Dispensation of Grace, which was being introduced. See how they were carrying out that fruit gathering.
And now for this end time the gathering of the fruit of the Dispensation of Grace is carried out and it is placed (where?) in the Dispensation of the Kingdom, in the Age of the Cornerstone.
And now see how it says that he who gathers, in other words, he who reaps, he who harvests, it says:
“And he that reapeth receiveth wages, and gathereth fruit unto life eternal…”
Both the fruit, the sons and daughters of God, who are called and gathered, is for eternal life…: those of us who are alive will be transformed; if any of them depart, there is no problem: they will resurrect in the new body. And notice, that fruit that is being gathered is for eternal life, to be transformed and enter into eternal physical life as well.
And see how the fruit that the apostles were gathering is also for eternal life, because they would receive Christ as their Savior, they would wash away their sins in the Blood of Christ, and would receive the Holy Spirit and thus they would receive eternal life.
And also the wages that we receive are not lost here on Earth when we leave, but it is also for eternal life, because it is the reward that Christ will give us there at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, which has to do with the part of the inheritance that each of us will have as individuals.
That is why Christ speaks in some places and says that some will be small and others will be bigger; not in terms of height, but He is speaking in terms of the position that they will have there. That is why He says that some will be people who will have a greater reward than others will have.
See, the one who received five talents and gained five more, notice, then another talent was added to him; because he who has, what will be given to him? More and he will have more7.
Now look, in the Kingdom of Christ there will be different important positions. Just as in a kingdom we find that there are different positions, just as you read in the Scripture and find that in Heaven there are different positions. For example, there are angels, but there are also archangels, which are greater; and the angels are under the direction of these Archangels Gabriel and Michael, see?, because they have a higher rank or position.
And so we also find throughout the Divine Program that there are different positions. And every person who works in the Work of Christ, the reward that he will receive will be according to how he has worked; and that will also have to do with the position and blessings that he will have in the Millennial Kingdom and then for all eternity.
Now, we can see… Look, the Hebrew people, when they entered the promised land…
(You may take a seat. Heh! Since I am standing, well, I had forgotten that you don’t necessarily have to stand, but rather, you can sit).
The Hebrew people, when they entered the promised land, and Joshua divided the land to them, look how they got the land: according to the blessings that Jacob had cast upon his sons.
And now, look how there was one who had two tribes. Who was it? Joseph had two tribes. Why? Because the Birthright Blessing was Joseph’s, and the Birthright Blessing has a double blessing. And now, look how he has two tribes: the tribe of Manasseh and the tribe of Ephraim.
And now, Christ with the Birthright Blessing has His gentile Church (the spiritual Ephraim) and the Hebrew people. So with that Birthright Blessing, look, our Joseph imparts or receives that blessing for His Church (the most important part) and then for the Hebrew people.
Who was the one who distributed the promised land to the Hebrew people, and what tribe was Joshua from? Of the tribe of Joseph through (who?) Ephraim.
And Joshua represents Jesus, he is Jesus. Joshua means ‘Savior’, ‘Redeemer’, and Jesus means ‘Savior, ‘Redeemer’. And Joshua and Jesus are written in Hebrew in the same way: it is Yoshua or Joshua.
And now, see how that Birthright Blessing that comes through Joseph passing to Ephraim… Notice, because of that Birthright Blessing, the one who distributes the promised land to the Hebrew people comes from the one who received the Birthright Blessing: from Joseph through Ephraim.
And through a son of Ephraim, in other words, a son of the tribe of Ephraim, is that the ministry for the entry into the promised land of the Hebrew people and the distribution of the promised land comes.
And Joshua also represents the final leader of the Church of Jesus Christ; and he represents the Holy Spirit.
And it is the Holy Spirit in the Last Day who will pass the Church to the promised land and will distribute the promised land to her. And the Holy Spirit, through His Angel Messenger in the Last Day, will be carrying out the Work for the Last Day to move us to the promised land of the new body and the promised land of the glorious Millennial Kingdom.
See where that blessing comes from: through Ephraim; and Ephraim represents the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.
To take us to the promised land of the new body and the promised land of the Millennial Kingdom, the instrument that the Holy Spirit —our Joshua— will have, he has to be of His Church; because His Church is represented in the tribe of Ephraim, in Ephraim and that tribe of Ephraim.
That is why when it speaks about the ten thousand, see who it is referring to. That is somewhere in Deuteronomy, chapter…, next-to-last chapter seems to be… In the song of Moses, there, it must be… In the next-to-last chapter it says, verse 1 and on it says [chapter 33]:
“And this is the blessing, wherewith Moses the man of God blessed the children of Israel before his death.
And he said, The Lord came from Sinai, and rose up from Seir unto them; he shined forth from mount Paran, and he came with ten thousands of saints: from his right hand went a fiery law for them.
Yea, he loved the people; all his saints are (where?) in thy hand…”
And where did he have the Fire Law? In His hand as well.
And now, God sitting on His Throne, what does He have in His right hand? The Book, the Title Deed, the Book of the Seven Seals.
And the names of God’s elect, where are they written? In that Book; because that is the Lamb’s Book of Life, that is the Title Deed of the Heavens and Earth.
And now see how He has in His right hand, in His hand, there in His hand He has “all those consecrated to Him.” He has all the members of His Church there in His hand, because they are written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life, in that Book of the Seven Seals that He has in His hand.
And now we turn to the blessing that He gave to Joseph, which was the longest and the most… the most – the blessing that He had. In the same chapter 33, verse 13 to 17, it says:
“And of Joseph he said, Blessed of the Lord be his land, for the precious things of heaven, for the dew, and for the deep that coucheth beneath,
And for the precious fruits brought forth by the sun, and for the precious things put forth by the moon,
And for the chief things of the ancient mountains, and for the precious things of the lasting hills,
And for the precious things of the earth and fulness thereof, and for the good will of him that dwelt in the bush (that is, the grace of the Angel of the Lord, the Angel of the Covenant): let the blessing come upon the head of Joseph, and upon the top of the head of him that was separated from his brethren.
His glory is like the firstling of his bullock, and his horns are like the horns of unicorns: with them he shall push the people together to the ends of the earth: and they are the ten thousands of Ephraim, and they are the thousands of Manasseh.”
And now see how then all of that pertains to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ and the 144.000 Hebrews, which are how many? 144.000 thousand (we would say?).
— [Brother Miguel: 144.000… 144.000]
—144 thousands.
— [Yes, because it is 144.000, so it is… 144,000. It is 144 thousand. If you take 144 and multiply it by 1000, it gives you 144.000]
—Well, 144.000 thousand?
— [144 thousand. That when you multiply 144 × 1000, you get 144.000: 144.000 people, individuals, right?]
—Aha, that is 144 thousands.
— [That’s 144 thousands]
—144 thousands
— [144 thousands]
That is, 144 handfuls of thousands.
— [That!]
We had to take it down to the stage of the little kids and… Or how sometimes you count money: you put in a little pack of 1000, and if you make 144 little packs of 1000, how much do you have?
— [Ah, I would have 144.000]
—Oh, well… See? There you go…
— [It is easier]
Yes, we… We understand that better.
Well, we can see that here we have those 144.000 corresponding to Manasseh; and now we have the thousands, those of Ephraim. In other words, it is a larger group, because they are the elect from all the seven ages of the gentile Church, and part of the – and those of the group of Saint Peter and the other apostles there, and those of our age, of the Age of the Cornerstone, with which the number of those who were represented in those thousands of Ephraim will be completed.
Now we can see that we are represented in Ephraim; and that is why the blessing of the right hand came upon Ephraim; and that is why the blessing of the right hand, which is at the right hand of God having the Book, the Title Deed in His hand, passes from the right hand of God to Jesus Christ, who takes it, opens It in Heaven and then brings it where? To His Church, which is represented in Ephraim; and that is why the blessing from the right hand of God passes to His Church.
And in this end time, every blessing from God in Heaven, which He has in His right hand, passes on to His Church; and that is why everything that is in the Most Holy Place of the Temple that is in Heaven passes on to His Church in this end time, it materializes in His Church.
That is why the little Book passes on to His Church; and all the blessings of the Most Holy Place pass on to His Church in this end time, in the Age of the Cornerstone, in this intertwining of the Dispensation of the Kingdom with the Dispensation of Grace.
There are many very important things there. The whole mystery of the Program of God is there, in the Most Holy Place of the Temple that is in Heaven, to be manifested in the Most Holy Place of His Church, which is the Age of the Cornerstone.
That is why everything, everything that will make His Church, His elect receive the faith, the revelation to be changed and raptured, everything is under the mystery, the secret of the Seventh Seal, of the Second Coming of Christ, which brings us the blessings of the Most Holy Place of the Temple of God, to materialize them in His Church in this end time.
Just as He worked in the seven stages or ages of the gentile Church, but they pertain to the Holy Place of the spiritual Temple of Christ, and therefore they pertain to the Holy Place of the Temple of God in Heaven. But now everything that He does in the Age of the Cornerstone pertains to the Most Holy Place of His spiritual Temple, and therefore to the Most Holy Place of the Temple that is in Heaven.
And the connection with the Temple of God in Heaven, with the Most Holy Place of the Temple of God in Heaven, is where in the Church of Jesus Christ? In the Most Holy Place of the Church of Jesus Christ, in other words, in the Age of the Cornerstone.
That is why the Voice of God from Heaven, from His Throne, is transmitted through His Church in the Age of the Cornerstone and to His Church in the Age of the Cornerstone. And that is why in the Age of the Cornerstone, for the Last Day would be the ministry that would minister directly from the Throne of God. The things that pertain to the Most Holy Place of the Temple of God would be ministered in the Church of Jesus Christ in the Age of the Most Holy Place and materialized in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ in human beings.
That is why for this time the call of the Great Voice of Trumpet calling and gathering the elect of God, is gathering all the elect; and the number of God’s elect is being completed, the number of the Church of Jesus Christ; and notice, it is being completed with Latin American and Caribbean people.
There are still some missing, but they will arrive; and for them to arrive, the Word has to reach them. (How…?). With the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation8.
And now, how will they believe if there is no one to preach to them?, and how will they preach if they are not sent? That is why it says they are…: “How beautiful are the feet of those who preach the good news!”9, the feet of those who on the mountains (that is, on the kingdoms, on the nations, peoples and tongues) are carrying the Gospel10, their feet are shod with the preparation of the Gospel11.
And now, with the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, which we have recorded and also printed, with that Message being brought to the people, the elect of God that are missing to be called and gathered will be gathered, called and gathered.
It is not with whatever people say, but with the Message that pertains to this end time.
That is why it has been given by God in this time; and it has been recorded so that it reaches the people without any alteration; so that no one puts his own idea, but it reaches him as it has been given by God through His instrument in the Last Day. And so no one can alter the Message; because when the Message of an age is altered, the revival dies in that age.
You can’t alter the Message, but give it as it is given; and thus God works according to how He has promised for our time.
So, young people, this is a very important time, where…; just as in the time of Jesus children, young people and adults, and even the elderly, had the opportunity to work in the Work of Christ, also in this time children, young people, adults and also the elderly have the same opportunity; and they have the Message at their disposal: they have booklets, they have cassettes, they can get the videos too, they can distribute it to their neighbors, to their relatives. You see? And so, you can also go personally or in groups, the young people, to give public activities, to have songs and all these things; and then put the videos and hand out literature to all the people.
That is a missionary, evangelistic work, very effective in this end time for the number of God’s elect to be completed, for God to call those who remain to be called and placed in the Mystical Body of Christ.
Sometimes we think that there are no people who believe in such place. But did you bring them the Message? Have you handed out the Message in those places? You don’t know if there is seed in a place or not, unless you give it to them, take the Message to them in booklets and in videos and so on; and then, the one who is of God, hears the Voice of God and says to them: “This is what I was waiting for.”
There are cases where they have told that they were waiting to see such and such a thing; and when they received the Message, they were told: “I was waiting for it. I knew you were coming.” They have even said: “I knew there was a person like this and like that on the cover of the booklet, of the pamphlet (they have been told): I saw it!” (I don’t know whether in dream or vision).
But all these things have been happening; and it is that God has already prepared – has already prepared all of them, those who are going to receive the Message; He has been working with them and continues to work with them.
And we take the Message. And maybe sometimes it seems like you don’t hear anything that happened; but maybe you haven’t given him time to finish reading the Message. Let him finish reading the Message and bring him the other one; and God will continue working, because God works through His creative Word; and that is what He has given us at this time.
It is through that creative Word that God is working at this time. Therefore He will work in the soul of all those whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.
And look, and we have the creative Word in pamphlets, in videos, in tape recordings: the Message that would create a new age, the Age of the Cornerstone, and that would create everything that has to be created in this end time.
And the dead in Christ will resurrect in eternal bodies (that is a creative Work), and we who are alive will be transformed (that is a creative Work as well), because we are in a divine cycle of divine creation. And therefore we need what? The creative Word, which is the Word of the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, the Word, which was with God and was God and created all things.
We have reached the greatest and most glorious time of all times for young people, as well as for children and adults. This is the most glorious time of all times for young people, for each of you and also for me.
It is the time when, notice, things that could not be understood hundreds of years ago, and even some years ago, now God has opened all these prophecies that even children can understand. And before, not even the theologians could understand them, and now even children can understand them.
And now, you, young people, can understand all these things; and they are of help and blessing to you to work more extensively in the Work of Christ and to go safely working in the Work of Christ, aware of the work you are doing. And God confirming His work producing fruit, and fruit in abundance.
Well, young people, it has been a great privilege to be with you on this occasion, sharing these moments with you.
May God bless you greatly and use you greatly in His Work in this Last Day; and may God raise more and more young people in His Work to work in the missionary work, so that the number of God’s elect may soon be completed; and may we be transformed along with the dead in Christ that will be resurrected in eternal bodies, and may we go to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Heaven. In the Eternal Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen and amen.
May God bless you, young people, and keep you; and I leave Miguel here again to continue.
May God keep you, bless you and use you greatly in His Work.
