Good morning beloved friends and brethren present, and those who are in other nations, ministers and their congregations, believers in Christ; and also to Missionary Miguel Bermudez Marin in the Mexican Republic, in Villahermosa, Tabasco, Mexican Republic.
Receive my greetings, and may God bless us all greatly, may He open the Scriptures to us and open our understanding in order to comprehend. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
It is a great blessing for me to be with you this New Year 2017, in which we are expecting great blessings from behalf God.
Let us read in Revelation, chapter 2, verse 17, where it says:
“He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.”
May God bless our souls with His Word, and allow us to understand it.
The subject for today, Sunday Bible School is: “THE STONE WITH A NEW NAME.”
Throughout the Scripture we can see there is a promise of a New Name to be revealed unto the believers in Christ, and also for the Hebrew people. That New Name is on the white Stone, the Stone cut out without hands that Daniel saw in Chapter 2. Daniel, Chapter 2, verse 34 to 35, says:
“Thou sawest till that a stone was cut out without hands, which smote the image upon his feet that were of iron and clay, and brake them to pieces.
Then was the iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, broken to pieces together, and became like the chaff of the summer threshingfloors; and the wind carried them away, that no place was found for them: and the stone that smote the image became a great mountain, and filled the whole earth.”
It is the Coming of the Lord, the Coming of God’s Anointed One for the Last Day with a New Name. The Lord is the Stone cut out without hands, He is the Stone promised to come in this end time, and His Coming is with a New Name.
The promise is that He will write His New Name upon the overcomer. Chapter 3 of Revelation, verse 17… and especially chapter 3, verse 12 of Revelation, says:
“Him that overcometh will I make a pillar in the temple of my God, and he shall go no more out: and I will write upon him the name of my God, and the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem, which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will write upon him my new name.
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.”
It is the Lord Himself who says He has a New Name and that He will write it upon the overcomer. It is important to see that there are great promises for this end time, and one day, the New Name of the Lord will be revealed to the elect.
Revelation, chapter 2, verses 26 to 29, says:
“And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:
And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received of my Father.
And I will give him the morning star.”
Here, in the promise of Revelation, chapter 2, verse 17, we saw that He promises a white Stone with a New Name, with a New Name written upon it; and this last Scripture that we read in Revelation, chapter 2, verse 28, says: “and will give him the morning star.”
The white Stone is the Messiah, it is the Lord, the Angel of the Covenant of Exodus, chapter 23, verse 20 to 23; and the New Name of the Lord comes in that Stone. It is the Coming of the Lord with a New Name, which will be fulfilled in the end time.
Then, in chapter 2, verse 28, He says that He will give him the Morning Star.
Revelation, chapter 22, verse 16, says: “I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.”
Now, we find that He will give him the Morning Star, and He Himself is the Morning Star.
The Angel of the Covenant who delivered the Hebrew people and appeared to Moses in a bush, we find that He is the One saying in the book of Revelation that He will give him the New Name corresponding to the Coming of the Lord in the Last Day, He will give him the bright and Morning Star, which is the Holy Spirit, the Angel of the Covenant, who will come in this end time to seek all of His believers.
Exodus, chapter 23, verses 20 and on, says:
“Behold, I send an Angel before thee, to keep thee in the way, and to bring thee into the place which I have prepared.
Beware of him, and obey his voice, provoke him not; for he will not pardon your transgressions: for my name is in him.”
Where is the Name of God? In the Angel of the Covenant, who is the Holy Spirit, the heavenly Body of God, the image of God that was seen by the prophets in the Old Testament and in the New Testament as well by Saint Paul, Saint Peter and other apostles.
The Angel of the Covenant that appeared to Moses has the Name of God; that is why in Exodus, chapter 3, Moses wanted to know what was the Name of God. Chapter 3, verse 13 and on, says:
“And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them?
And God said unto Moses, I Am That I Am: and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I Am hath sent me unto you.”
In other words, God identified Himself as the “I Am,” the same yesterday, today and forever.
We find that Manoah also wanted to know the name of the Angel that appeared to him; it was God appearing in His heavenly, theophanic body, where the Name of God is. And in the book of Revelation, it is the Angel of the Covenant, the Holy Spirit, the One who brings that Revelation to the apostle Saint John, the same Angel with the Name of God. That is why He can say: “I will write upon him the Name of my God and my New Name.”
It is important to know that there is a great mystery, the greatest mystery of the entire Bible, which is the mystery of the Coming of the Lord for this end time; mystery that is contained in the Seventh Seal of Revelation, chapter 8, verse 1, which caused the Heavens to be silent when the Seventh Seal was opened in Heaven; and it will be revealed through the Seven Thunders of Revelation, chapter 10, which is the Voice of the Lord, of the Angel of the Covenant, of the Holy Spirit, speaking to His Church in the Last Day, to the believers in Christ, and revealing to them the Divine Program corresponding to the end time, the Program of Reclaiming to receive the faith to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
The bright and Morning Star is the Holy Spirit, the Lord in Holy Spirit, the Angel of the Covenant.
The Stone cut out without hands is also the Lord, who has a New Name and He will write it upon the overcomer, according to what is promised; and He will seat the overcomer with Him upon His earthly Throne, which is the Throne of David. He says [Revelation 3:21]: “Even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.”
This is a great blessing there is for the end time, for both the believers in Christ and for the Jews.
It is in the Coming of the Lord with a New Name in this end time that the Jews will recognize Him and say: “This is the One we were waiting on”; but He comes for His Church, to give Her the faith to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. They will leave just like the prophet Elijah, who was caught away in a chariot of fire. There will be chariots of fire that will take the believers to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
We are in a very important time, in which we have to be alert and receive the faith, the revelation, to be changed in this end time; and the faith to be changed revolves around the Coming of the Lord for this end time. That is the mystery of the Seventh Seal: the Coming of the Lord for this end time with a New Name.
And the Thunders…, which is the Voice of the Mighty Angel descending from Heaven, who is the Angel of the Covenant, the Holy Spirit, God in His heavenly body, crying out as when a lion roars and seven thunders uttering their voices. When John was going to write, he was told not to write what the Thunders uttered. This is because what the Thunders spoke is the content, the revelation of the Seventh Seal, the revelation of the Coming of the Lord for this end time. His Coming will be for the believers in Christ who form the Mystical Body of Christ, and for the Hebrew people, the Jews.
The Seventh Seal is the Coming of the Lord for the believers in Christ; and the Sixth Seal is the Coming of Elijah and Moses for the Jews. Therefore, we must be prepared, because something great is about to take place according to the divine promises corresponding to this end time.
That Angel of the Covenant who appeared to Moses and who delivered the Hebrew people through Moses is the Holy Spirit, it is God in His heavenly body appearing and having His Name in the Angel.
Therefore, the Stone with the New Name is the Coming of the Lord for this end time, first for the believers in Christ, and then for the Hebrew people, for the introduction and establishment of the Kingdom of God on Earth, which will be the restoration of the Throne of David and the Kingdom of David through the Son of David, through a descendant of David.
Just as Joseph was hidden in the kingdom of Pharaoh, and his brothers did not know him…; and he even had a new name he was given by Pharaoh; therefore, they did not know that this young man of about 30 years of age was their brother, Joseph.
Moses was also taken to the kingdom of Pharaoh and he was protected there, because the king had sent for all the male children of the Hebrew people born in Israel to be found and killed.
Therefore, God protects His anointed one, Joseph, He protects His anointed one, Moses and He protected Christ. When Herod sent to kill all children who were 2 years old and under, Jesus was about 2 years old, and the Angel of God commanded Joseph to go to Egypt with the child and his wife.
Egypt has been a place of reference in God’s Program. Jesus, Yeshua, was raised there for some time, because they were killing the children who were 2 years old and under in Bethlehem of Judea.
The dispensational messengers have always been persecuted to death, because the enemy of God has inspired people to carry out those persecutions; but God has always obtained the victory with the corresponding one sent in each dispensation.
The most kept and safeguarded mystery by God is the mystery of the Seventh Seal, the mystery of the Coming of the Lord; therefore, we must be alert in order to see Him, hear Him and identify Him and receive His Word corresponding to this end time.
God will write His New Name upon the overcomer; the New Name that is in the Stone cut out without hands, the Stone of the Coming of the Lord for the Last Day which will smite the feet of iron and clay in the gentile kingdom; this is a kingdom that has been passing by from age to age, from stage to stage: it began in Babylon with Nebuchadnezzar as the golden head of that statue that represents the gentile kingdom in Revelation and also in Daniel, chapter 2.
Then the Medo-Persian kingdom came, the Medo-Persian empire, in the shoulders and arms of silver; then, later on, came the third stage of that kingdom: the kingdom of Greece with Alexander the Great, represented in the belly and thighs of brass; then, afterwards, the stage of the legs of iron with the Roman empire of the Caesars came; and then it went on to the stage of the feet of iron and clay, which is the last stage of the gentile kingdom, the stage for the Coming of the Lord with a New Name.
For which, just as Christ was protected by being taken to Egypt, the Second Coming of the Lord to the gentiles will be protected; and when the Jews see the Lord coming in the fulfillment of His Coming, they will say: “This is the One we are waiting on”; for He will be doing what the Messiah, the Son of David, is promised to do in this end time in the fulfillment of the Coming of the Stone cut out without hands.
When the Stone cut out without hands from the Mount, the Mount of God appears, this indicates that the end of the gentile kingdom has begun.
Therefore, let us be prepared, because a great blessing is promised for me and for each one of you, too.
In the Coming of the Stone with His New Name – with a New Name, there is a great blessing that will give us the faith, the revelation to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
This is a very important year in the Divine Program, both for the believers in Christ as well as for the Jews; because both people are waiting for the Coming of the Messiah, the Coming of the Son of David, the Coming of the King of Israel who will bring peace to Israel and to His believers, and He will take us with Him to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
“THE STONE WITH A NEW NAME.”
Remember that the Stone is the Lord in His Coming. He came two thousand years ago according to the teachings of the Gospel in the midst of Christianity. Jesus Christ is the Stone cut out without hands. And the Angel of the Covenant will come, who is the image of the living God, God’s heavenly body, and He will come with a New Name. In other words, God with and in His heavenly body will come in this end time. That is Emmanuel: “God with us,” according to Isaiah, chapter 7, verse 14; and also Isaiah, chapter 9, verse 1 to 11.
He will come to make known things, which must shortly come to pass in this end time, and He will come for the introduction to the Kingdom of the Son of David. In other words, it will be for the blessing of the Jews and for the blessing of the believers in Christ who are also waiting for Him; that is why it is important to be aware that Christ, the Stone cut out without hands, the Angel of the Covenant, will come with a New Name.
“THE STONE WITH A NEW NAME.”
If there is someone who has not yet received Christ as Savior, you may do so at this time, and we will be praying for you so that Christ receives you in His Kingdom and cleanses you from all sin with His Blood; for which, you can come up to the front, and we will be praying for you.
In each country, you can also come to the Feet of Christ, every person who has heard the Gospel and the faith of Christ was born in your heart, and you had not yet received Christ; in the country where you are, you may come to the front to receive Christ as your only and sufficient Savior, and you will be included in the prayer we will make for those coming to the Feet of Christ in different countries, and those will who come here as well, for those who are present.
Let us stand to pray for the people that are coming to the Feet of Christ in different countries.
It is important to take advantage of the time of mercy in the Dispensation of Grace before the door to the Dispensation of Grace closes, because afterwards, there will no longer be an opportunity to receive Christ as Savior, because we will pass onto another dispensation, the Dispensation of the Kingdom, wherein the Lord will be as King and Judge over all the Earth.
With our heads bowed and our eyes closed:
Heavenly Father, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I come to You with all these people who are receiving Christ as their only and sufficient Savior. Receive them in Your Kingdom, I pray to You. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
Now repeat this prayer I will be making after me:
Lord Jesus Christ, I have heard the preaching of Your Gospel, the Gospel of Grace, and Your faith was born in my heart, in my soul. I believe in You with all my soul.
I acknowledge that I am a sinner and I need a Savior. I give public testimony of my faith in You and of Your faith in me, and I receive You as my only and sufficient Savior, acknowledging that there is no salvation apart from You.
I acknowledge and I believe with all my soul in Your Sacrifice on Calvary’s Cross. I believe that Your Blood has cleansed me from all sin at Calvary’s Cross; and I receive You as my only and sufficient Savior.
I pray that You forgive my sins and with Your Blood, may You cleanse me from all sin. And may You baptize me with Holy Spirit and Fire after I am baptized in water in Your Name, and bring forth the new birth in me.
I pray to You in Your Eternal and glorious Name Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
The Scripture says in Mark, chapter 16, verses 15 to 16: “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.”
Therefore, those who have believed and have received Christ as their only and sufficient Savior may be baptized; and may Christ baptize you with the Holy Spirit and Fire, and bring forth the new birth in you. And we will continue to see one another eternally in the Kingdom of Christ, in the Kingdom of God. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
Those who have believed and have received Christ as their Savior may be baptized; for which, I leave each minister in each country and congregation, and also here in Puerto Rico, to inform you what you must do to be baptized in water in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
I leave Reverend Jose Benjamin Perez here with you, and in each nation, in each country, I leave each minister to inform you what you must do to be baptized in water in the Name of the Lord.
It has been a great privilege to be with you on this occasion, in today’s Sunday Bible School, with the subject of the Bible study being: “THE STONE WITH THE NEW NAME.”
May God bless you and keep you; and until next Friday and next Sunday, when I will be with you again, God willing.
“THE STONE WITH THE NEW NAME.”
