Good morning, fellow ministers in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ our Savior, in His Mystical Body of believers, ladies and youth present as well, and other gentlemen and children too, whom I see.
May God bless you and keep you, and use you greatly in His Work at this end time.
It is a great privilege for me to be with you on this occasion, to share some moments of fellowship with you around the Divine Program relevant to the end time, according to the Scriptures.
For this occasion, let’s read a passage in Saint Mark, chapter 4…
I also want to convey a greeting to the minister, Missionary Miguel Bermúdez Marín, where he is in Guatemala: God bless you, Miguel, and all the ministers who are also gathered there at this time; and all the ministers in all the nations who are hearing me, and all those who work in the Work of the Lord. May God bless you and keep you all.
And now let’s read the Scripture, in Saint Mark, chapter 4, verses 26 to 29, where it says:
“And he said (meaning, Christ)…”
“And he said, So is the kingdom of God, as if a man should cast seed into the ground;
And should sleep, and rise night and day, and the seed should spring and grow up, he knoweth not how.
For the earth bringeth forth fruit of herself; first the blade, then the ear, after that the full corn in the ear.
But when the fruit is brought forth, immediately he putteth in the sickle, because the harvest is come.”
God bless our souls with His Word and allow us to understand It.
“TIME TO RIPEN IN THE LIGHT OF THE WORD.”
Here Christ shows us a mystery, or the mystery… this mystery of the Kingdom of God in this parable, and in many other parables of which He spoke to His disciples and also to the people.
God through Christ simplified all these mysteries of the Kingdom of God in the things and with the things already known among the Hebrew people, things known within agriculture, so that they could better understand these mysteries of the Kingdom of God.
And now, the Scripture shows us that there is a time to sow, there is a time to grow (for what was sown to sprout and grow), there is a time to bring forth fruit; and then there is a time for the fruit to ripen, and then the time to gather the fruit, which is the harvest. Those are different stages which the Kingdom of God would go through, “Such is the kingdom of God,” Christ says.
Therefore, in the Kingdom of God, there would be different stages to go through; and applied to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, we then find that the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ would go through different stages.
The Lord Jesus Christ, on one occasion, there in Saint John, chapter 12, verse 24, says: “Except a corn of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it abides alone.” In other words, since Christ is the Corn of Wheat, the original Seed (given that the wheat represents the children of the Kingdom, the children of God)… and now Christ, as the Son of God: Christ is that Seed, He is the original Seed from which many wheat grains, many sons and daughters of God, will come.
“Except the corn of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it abides alone (or He remains alone).” In other words, Jesus Christ would still be walking the Earth, because He had no sin, therefore, He could not die; but the entire human race had to die the day Christ died, due to the sins that the human beings had.
That was the time in which God would judge mankind, and therefore, everyone had to die due to sin; for the wages of sin is death.[1] But Christ would continue living, because He had no sin; and He would still be walking everywhere, without having anyone to talk to.
Would you like to live on a planet, alone, all to yourself, but without having anyone to talk to? No one would like that, much less the Lord Jesus Christ. Because in God are the attributes of being a Father, and therefore, He will have children; and for that reason, well, He becomes flesh to reproduce Himself into many sons and daughters of God, through the Second Adam. These are the children that Adam and Eve were supposed to bring forth originally, who would be children with Eternal Life.
And now, knowing that Christ is the Second Adam: Christ is the original Seed through whom many sons and daughters of God, many wheat grains, will come. “But if the corn of wheat falls into the ground and dies (He says), it brings forth much fruit.” And to bring forth fruit, well, by a corn of wheat dying: a wheat plant sprouts, grows, brings forth fruit (it goes through different stages), it brings forth fruit, and then the fruit has to ripen. There it shows us the different stages that Christ and His Church would go through.
The Corn of Wheat, Christ, died on Calvary’s Cross, He was buried, and then He resurrected; and then, on the Day of Pentecost, the Wheat Plant sprouted, which is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, in which there would be many wheat grains, all the fruit that Christ, the Corn of Wheat, would bring forth.
And in each stage of the Church, in each age, the Life of the Plant was present, which is the Holy Spirit. Christ said: “I will be with you always, even unto the end of the world,” (Saint Matthew, chapter 28, verse 20).
And Life would be flowing through that Wheat Plant, and therefore, those wheat grains would potentially be in each of the ages, which are the believers in Christ of each age. But the Harvest would not be carried out in any of those ages, because there is a Divine order according to the sowing and reaping of every tree and of every plant.
And now, we find that the sons and daughters of God were there, in each age; but they didn’t come to maturity at that time, because at the end time, at the Last Day, is when the fruit will be inside the seventh age of the Church: the wheat grains that will appear after the seventh Church age. The seventh Church age is the shuck where the grain of wheat would be; and then it emerges, the shuck pulls away, and the grain of wheat is left before the sun to completely ripen, and then comes the harvest.
After the seventh Church age, we go into the Age of the Cornerstone.
The seven ages of the Church pertain to the nighttime, when the moon was what represented those different stages or ages of the Church; but the fruit doesn’t ripen with the moon. It’s not in the nighttime that a harvest is carried out; it’s in the day, and it’s during the summertime; because summertime is when the fruit ripens, and then comes the harvest.
Therefore, there must come an age that is represented in the sun. And the promise is, in Malachi, chapter 4: “Unto you that fear My Name shall the Sun of Righteousness arise with healing in His Wings.”
So, that is the Age of the Cornerstone, the Golden Age that we are in, and which we will be speaking about in a few minutes with all the ministers, since this is just the introduction, so that the ladies don’t leave saying: “But he just greeted us and said goodbye, and he didn’t tell us anything; and we also (they might say), we also work in the Work of the Lord.”
In many places we usually have the entire activity with everyone; then we just leave a short part for the ministers, at the end; and so that the ladies also hear about this Divine Program that Christ showed, according to the law of sowing and reaping, using the agricultural terms of His time; that is why He also speaks about the sickle, which was the tool to carry out the harvest. Nowadays they would say “the combine machines”, because nowadays we use machines and all those things.
Now (to add a bit more for the ladies, if you’ll allow me here…), the stage… All the stages are important, because if one of the stages isn’t carried out, all the work that was done to sow the Corn of Wheat, which is Christ (for Him to be sown, so that He could die and be the original Seed that would reproduce Itself into many wheat grains, many children of God), if the different stages aren’t carried out: all that work that Christ carried out on Calvary’s Cross would be lost.
That is why, in the parable of the wheat and the tares, Christ says that a man, a sower went out, sowed wheat; and then he came (that is in chapter 13 of Saint Matthew, verse 30 and on, let’s say, or twenty-something and on)… and then, while he slept, an enemy of his came and sowed tares in the field.
And when the time comes for all the seed to emerge, to sprout, the servants of the lord of the property, of the estate, see that there are also tares, and they say to the lord of the estate: “Lord, how can there be tares, if what you sowed was wheat?”
It is the same as saying: “But how can there be tares (that is, people who are not children of God) in the midst of Christianity, if what Christ has sown is wheat, children of the Kingdom?” And the Church is supposed to be for the children of the Kingdom, the children of God, to be there, not for the children of the wicked one to be there.
How is it that tares are appearing in the midst of the field, in the midst of the wheat, in the midst of Christianity? Which is why we have been seeing many things in the midst of Christianity for the past two thousand years. What has happened?
Christ says in the parable that the lord of the field said: “An enemy, an adversary came and sowed tares in the field.” Then the servants say to him: “Do you want us to uproot the tares?” He says: “No, because by uprooting the tares you might also uproot the wheat.”
And what good was it for him to uproot the wheat without it going through the different stages? He would have no wheat harvest, that is one thing. And the other thing is: if they uproot this tare, it might be the family member of another person who is a child of God, who is wheat; it might be a relative (it might be the son-in-law or daughter-in-law of a son or daughter of God); and then, by uprooting this person, removing them, they might also remove the one who is a daughter or son of God, then they might cause a problem.
—“Leave everything in the field alone; don’t start doing what you want to do. Leave everything until (what?) time…”
Let’s see. Saint Matthew, chapter 13, verse 30 and on, says… verse 29 and on:
“But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.”
And now… This parable is very interesting, because it is related to human beings and about human beings, some represented in the wheat and others in the tares.
Then, verse 33 and on says, of this same chapter 13 (the explanation will be there), it says… Let’s see, 36 (correction). Chapter 13, verse 36 and on, says:
“Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.
He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man.”
Who sows the good seed? The Son of Man, the Lord.
And now, also in the parable of the sower, in chapter 13, verse 3, it says [Matthew]:
“And he spake many things unto them in parables, saying, Behold, a sower went forth to sow;
And when he sowed, some seeds fell by the way side, and the fowls came and devoured them up.”
Now, we find that this 13th chapter is full of parables related to the Kingdom of God.
In this parable, the children of God are represented in the good ground, and the seed that is sown is the Word of the Kingdom, looking at it from that other point of view, this work that would be carried out, that God would carry out.
And now, let’s continue here:
“He that soweth the good seed (verse 37) is the Son of man (that is, Christ);
The field is the world (now the field isn’t the children of God, now the field is the world); the good seed are the children of the kingdom…”
Just as Christ is the Corn of Wheat, now the good seed are the children of the Kingdom, it is none other than the fruit that the Corn of Wheat will produce; but it has to go through different stages.
“…but the tares are the children of the wicked one.”
Now, Christ, notice, shows that there are children of God and children of the wicked one.
“The enemy that sowed them (that is, who sowed the children of the wicked one, who sowed the tares) is the devil…”
And if the tares are the children of the wicked one, then he who sows the tares is the father of the tares, whom the Lord says is the devil. And the wheat, the good seed, which are the children of the Kingdom, are sown by the good Seed, the Son of Man, Christ; therefore, they are the children of God through Christ.
Christ is the second Adam, the Father of that new race with Eternal Life; and that is the original race that God thought of: a race with Eternal Life.
“… the harvest (we are reading verse *39) is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.”
At the end of the Dispensation of Grace, at the end is when the harvest comes. The harvest: what was sown in that Dispensation of Grace is harvested, the fruit is gathered at the end of the dispensation. That is where we have the end of the world, the end of the Dispensation of Grace, the end of the dispensation of the Church; everything at the end.
Because that is what happens in the sowing: at the end it becomes what? Well, the harvest: the fruit is gathered and the chaff is burned; and then that serves as a fertilizer for a new generation, a new sowing that is going to take place.
And now, at the end of the world or the end of time, it’s time for the harvest to take place, the gathering of God’s sons and daughters. But before gathering that seed, before gathering the fruit, what has to happen? Well, it has to be ripening or maturing, it has to go through that stage where it is no longer a Church age under any of the seven stages of the Church that correspond to the nighttime, which is why those seven stages of the Church correspond to the time when the Moon shone on them in each of the stages; and therefore, they correspond to the Holy Place of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, where there was the candlestick or lampstand with seven lamps (representing seven ages or stages of the Church), with a wick dipped in oil inside that lamp on fire with God, on fire with the Holy Spirit, illuminating each age of the Church.
The seven ages of the Church correspond to the holy place in the tabernacle that Moses built and the temple that King Solomon built; because those two temples typified – typify the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.
But then there is another place in the temple, which is the most holy place, where there are no lamps there, what there is instead is an ark: the ark of the covenant with the tables of the Law; and upon the ark is the cover of the ark of the covenant (which is made of gold) with two cherubims of gold, one on each side; and between the two cherubims of gold is the Presence of God in the Pillar of Fire. That is the Light there. If that Light leaves, the place is left in darkness.
That is where the wheat is placed: it is the Age of the Cornerstone. After the seven ages comes the Age of the Cornerstone, represented in the most holy place, and that is where the wheat comes to maturity.
Remember that Christ said: “I am the Light of the world; he that follows Me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the Light of Life.”[2] Christ is represented in the sun: “Unto you who fear My Name shall the Sun of Righteousness arise with healing in His Wings.”
Therefore, the Age of the Cornerstone is the stage where the wheat is placed before the Presence of God to ripen; not in an age of the seven Church ages where the Moon was the one that shone, but rather an age where the Sun (Christ) shines, and where it, the wheat, God’s sons and daughters, come to maturity; they come to maturity in the knowledge of God, in the Word of God, in God’s entire Program as sons and daughters of God.
And when the moment comes in which they are already fully mature, what happens? The Harvest; it is the most glorious stage of all the stages. It was also represented in the Day of Pentecost; and what happened back then becomes a type and figure of what will happen in our time as well. Another Pentecost is coming.
And in which time did Pentecost happen back then?
After the different stages, after the forerunner of the First Coming of the Lord, the Coming of the Lord was fulfilled. And after He carried out the Work relevant to His time, and died, was buried, resurrected, was with His disciples for about forty days, and then ascended to Heaven[3] —and He is there on the Throne of Intercession as High Priest— after He left, ten days later (which was the fiftieth day from the day He resurrected until the Holy Spirit came), on the fiftieth day, the Holy Spirit came down and baptized 120 believers in Christ.[4] That was the day when that grain was presented: those wheat grains, those sons and daughters of God.
But now, where are we going to find another Pentecost? That was the Day of Pentecost. But Pentecost is ‘fifty.’ Where are we going to find another fifty, in which a blessing is promised? In the Fiftieth Year.
Every 7 years, the seventh year was a sabbatical year, it was like that for 49 years; and then came the 50th year, called “the year of jubilee.”[5] That is another Pentecost, which is relevant —in type and figure— to the Age of the Cornerstone of the end time; where those 49 years that typify the seven stages of the Church, in which seven great revivals have taken place, seven sabbatical years… – or those seven sabbatical years represent seven great revivals which have taken place in the Mystical Body of Christ among the Gentiles, where God has sent a messenger for each stage of His Church; and —through that messenger— Christ, the Light of the world, has shone in the midst of His Church.
There, we find that the Light for each age is the manifestation of Christ through the messenger of each age; and thus, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ has had Light from age to age. The Light has been veiled in the messenger of each age, Christ veiled through His promised Word for each age; and when that Word becomes flesh in the messenger and he begins to preach It, that is where the Light for that age is, for the people of that stage or of that age.
But with that Light, since it pertains to the time of the stages of the Church that goes through the night, and the Moon is the one shining —which is Christ reflected in His Church through the messenger of each age— we find that the Light of the Moon doesn’t ripen the fruit, but it is the Light that She needs during those different stages of the Church.
Then, at the end time, after the seven ages, the Age of the Cornerstone emerges; it comes forth at the top of the Church, at the Last Day, the stage for the wheat to be manifested.
It comes out of the seventh age (in other words, it comes out of the shuck, out of the husk), it comes forth in the Age of the Cornerstone; and that is where the fruit will come to maturity, the wheat will come to maturity, to be harvested at the Last Day: to be transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, with the Light of the Son of Man, of Christ, in the fulfillment of the promised Word for the Last Day.
And that promised Word becoming a reality will be the Light that will ripen the wheat at the Last Day; because that will be Christ revealed at the Last Day, manifested in the Last Day, illuminating and ripening the wheat.
That is why when Christ speaks about the end time, He tells us that when we see those signs that He mentioned, taking place, we should know that summer is near.[6] And in the summertime is when the wheat comes to maturity, in the summertime is when the wheat is gathered, the harvest is carried out.
Therefore, in the most glorious time of all times is when the wheat will come to maturity, it will be harvested and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
That is why the wheat, in the Wheat Plant, which is the Church… because it won’t come to maturity outside of the wheat plant. You don’t see that when the wheat is… when you start to see that there is wheat, but what you see is the shuck, the wheat is inside.
In the seventh age you couldn’t take that husk or shuck and say: “I have the wheat here, this is the wheat; let’s make it ripen, let’s take it from the Wheat Plant so that it ripens.” No, that couldn’t be done. And you can’t remove the wheat from the Wheat Plant so that it comes to maturity; it has to come to maturity in the Wheat Plant; and then, in the Harvest, it is taken to the Presence of God, to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
And now, let’s see something here that Reverend William Branham said somewhere, regarding the Light. He says on page 68 of the book of Quotations, he says that there are different stages. Now, let’s see, paragraph 592 says[7]:
592 – “[510] What’s the four stages of that coming forth of that Church? What’s the four stages of Ezekiel’s dry bones coming forth? But the Life only come, not when the sinew skin was on them, but when the wind blowed upon them. That’s when come back that fourth Message of Life.
511 ‘I will restore, saith the Lord.’ (…) The fourth Light is to come, that will bring forth the same signs. Watch. Justification brought back the pulp.
Sanctification brought back the bark, doctrine of holiness.
512 What brought back the leaf? Pentecostals. What is it? Pentecostals, leaves, clap their hand (…).
[513] The Word made flesh, fruits of the proof of the resurrection sign that Christ has finally, after justification been planted, sanctification been planted, baptism of the Holy Ghost. Organizations died out. And Christ has again centered Himself like that cap of the pyramid.”
Now notice, when he speaks to us about these things in the previous verse – in the previous paragraph… But let’s finish this paragraph, he says:
592 – “[513] First line, justification; sanctification; baptism of the Holy Ghost (there we have: one, two, and three; and then the fourth, he says); then coming of the Cap.
514 What is it? That Holy Ghost bunch being honed out so that it can fit with the same kind of ministry He had when He went away, that, when He comes back, it’ll catch the whole thing in the Rapture, where the justified, sanctified, and baptism of the Holy Ghost. That pyramid will stand again.”
And now, notice, different stages.
Here he also explains it more clearly. The previous paragraph, in paragraph 591, he says (still on page 68)[8] that they went through that stage of justification under the ministry of Luther, they went through the stage of sanctification under the ministry of Wesley, they went through the stage of restoration of gifts under the Pentecostal stage, whose messenger was Reverend William Branham; and then he tells us… And that was the Light in each one of those stages, a manifestation of Christ, the Light of the world, through those stages and through those messengers.
And then, there is a fourth Light; of which he says that “A fourth Light is coming,” a fourth stage.
Now, on page 69, paragraph 593, he says [Quotations][9]:
593 – “[518] There will come a Light, will rise.
519 Whereabouts, over in Jerusalem? No, sir. Evening Lights will not rise in Jerusalem. The evening Lights goes (where?) in the West. They had their day and refused It.
520 But the evening Light shall rise in the West.”
And which is the West? The continent of the Americas. And the seventh age was fulfilled in the continent of the Americas, in the northern part; and all that is left is the southern part: Latin America and the Caribbean.
Now notice, where will It rise? He says:
593 – “[520] But the evening Light shall rise in the West (what for?), to shine upon the Word (what?), to ripen the fruit, bring forth the Bride Tree with the same signs, wonders, and fruits that they had at the beginning.”
Why is the Light, Christ, promised to be manifested in the West? To ripen the fruit, and that comes after the seventh stage of the Church.
After the seventh Church age, then the fruit is to ripen with the manifestation that Christ has in the midst of His Church at the Last Day.
And that takes us to the Age of the Cornerstone, the Age of the Most Holy Place, the Golden Age, the most glorious age of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, where we will be ripening before the Son of Man; we will be standing before the Son of Man, before Christ, receiving His Light, His revelation at the Last Day.
They can’t be placed in a past age, because the fruit didn’t ripen in those past ages because it wasn’t the time for the Harvest; because the time for the Harvest is after the seven ages of the Church, when the fruit ripens; and that pertains to the top of the Bride Tree.
And the fruit ripens at the top. Therefore, that is the time in which the children of God will reach maturity by the Light of the promised Word being revealed and being vindicated, made a reality, by God in the midst of His Church.
Everything that God has promised for the Last Day for His Church, He will fulfill it. He will open the Scriptures to us; and with that Divine revelation He will ripen every son and daughter of God, every wheat grain in the Mystical Body of Christ, in the Wheat Plant.
Remember that the faith for the rapture is for the believers in Christ in the Mystical Body of Christ; they are the ones who have the promise of a resurrection, if they died as part of the Mystical Body of Christ in the age in which it was relevant for them to live; and He will transform those who are alive: they will be in the age relevant for them to be able to ripen and be transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
In plain words: those who lived in past ages and departed, as believers in Christ, will resurrect in eternal bodies. But there won’t be anyone from the first age or anyone who is in the first or second age (because those ages already passed…), to be transformed alive, because those ages already passed and had God’s sons and daughters of the age that was in effect in past times.
And so, the transformation of the living will be for whom? For those who will be receiving the Light of the revealed Word at the Last Day. Because the Light of the Sun, Christ: “Unto you who fear My Name shall the Sun of Righteousness arise with healing, salvation in His Wings.” Therefore, He will be ripening God’s sons and daughters at the Last Day; they will recognize their place in the Kingdom, their age, the age in which it is relevant for them to live.
Just like they have been going up from age to age… an age ends, and then the children of God that emerge come to another age that is higher up; and thus they continue to go up, until they reach the time of the Age of the Cornerstone, where the believers in Christ will be receiving the Light of Christ, the revelation of Christ to ripen at the Last Day.
And then, when the number is completed there in that Divine cycle, when the number of the elect is completed and they reach maturity, then they will be transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
These are mysteries of the Kingdom of God, and therefore, we have to understand them in our time. They couldn’t be understood in other times, nor was it known where the Light would shine at the Last Day.
Now, if you’re going to go to a dinner, well you’re not going to the dinner in the morning; if you go in the morning that’s for breakfast. In the evening time is when you go to dinner.
And the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ has reached the evening time; and the time… Where does the sun go down? In the West. Therefore, just as the sun rises in the East: around the territory of the Middle East, around Israel, the First Coming of Christ rose around there; Christ in His First Coming rose, emerged.
And now Christ is awaited by the Church at the Last Day, and the stage of the Church of the Last Day corresponds to the West; therefore, in the West is where the Light will be shining and ripening the wheat. And from there, the Light will spread to other nations, to ripen the wheat in all the other nations.
We have to know where the Light that ripens the wheat, ripens God’s sons and daughters at the Last Day, comes from; because we all want to ripen and we want to be transformed, and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
Don’t let anything block the Light of the Sun from you, of Christ, of the Son of Man, at the Last Day.
Then we also have the promise that the Son of Man will send His Angels, with a Great Voice of Trumpet, to call and gather the elect (Saint Matthew, chapter 24, verse 31). And in chapter 13 of Saint Matthew it says that the Son of Man will send His Angels at the time of Harvest, at the time in which that Harvest must be carried out. So, the ministries of the Two Olive Trees, of Moses and Elijah, will be present at the Last Day.
That is what was seen on Mount Transfiguration, where Christ is presented glorified and the order of the Coming of the Lord at the Last Day is presented there.[10] And that is why the ministry of Moses and Elijah is promised for the Last Day, according to Zechariah, chapter 4, verse 1 to 14; and Revelation, chapter 11, verse 1 to 14. As it was spoken, it must happen.
We are at the time when the most Biblical prophecies are appointed to be fulfilled, and we are part of those prophecies; therefore, there are great blessings for the believers in Christ.
Don’t let anything prevent you from seeing the Light of Christ of this end time, because that is the revealed Word being fulfilled, the prophetic Word, what God has promised for our time being vindicated, which will bring us to maturity in the knowledge of God, which will give us the faith to be transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
Don’t let anything prevent you from seeing and receiving the Light of the Word that is vindicated – promised, vindicated for our time. Our transformation and rapture depend on that, because our ripening depends on It.
Therefore, aware that we are at the time to ripen with the Light of the Word, then let’s always be receiving the Word of God relevant to this end time.
Just like in every stage of the Church, in every age, the Word came to the messenger, the messenger received It, It became flesh in him; he spoke It, and the elect heard It and received It as well, and It became flesh in them. And that was the Light of God for the people in each age; the Light of God through the Holy Spirit shining upon the promised Word for each age, and veiling Itself and revealing Itself through messenger of each age.
That is how the believers in Christ heard the Voice of the Holy Spirit in each age. That is the Divine order; “Surely the Lord will do nothing without revealing His secrets to His servants the prophets.”[11] Therefore, the Divine order will always remain forever, because He has established It that way.
And now, there will be another day, another year, another time of Pentecost, another Pentecost. With the first Pentecost comes an inner transformation, and with the second Pentecost, which will be the Year of Pentecost, a physical transformation will come, which will accompany the inner or spiritual transformation that will have been received by all those who will be transformed at the Last Day.
Therefore, this is an important time: it is time to ripen in the Light of the Word, of the promised Word for our time.
May God bless you and keep you; and now, well, we can let the ladies… they can continue with the tasks they may have to do, and we will continue here with the ministers now.
So, ladies: God bless you and keep you; and onward serving the Lord with all your soul; and may God use you greatly in His Work at this end time.
God always appreciates, Christ always appreciates everything the ladies do, just as He appreciates everything the ministers do in His Work; and even what the children do, Christ also appreciates it, because they do it with all their heart.
Well, may God always use you greatly in His Work. And we will see each other tonight, God willing, in tonight’s activity.
God bless you and keep you, and now we will continue with the ministers here.
[A lady says: “Brother William, we love you.”]
I love you all, too. God bless you and keep you.
PART 2
Now let’s continue with the ministers who are present, and also with those who are there with Missionary Miguel Bermúdez Marín, and in the other countries where they are; so, let’s continue – I will continue with you in the ministers’ meeting that you have on this occasion.
We have had a quick overview through the different ages of the Church, and we even touched on the time of Moses with the tabernacle and we touched on the time of King Solomon too, with the temple that was built back then; and we went on to the Temple that Christ is building, which is His Church, a spiritual Temple made up of living stones, born-again believers in Christ, who form the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.
And therefore, that Church has a Holy Place, which pertains to the seven Church ages; and It also has a Most Holy Place, which pertains to the end time where the wheat will ripen, where the sons and daughters of God, the believers in Christ, will come to maturity and will reach perfection, they will be transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb; they will reach the physical adoption.
The spiritual adoption is the new birth, where the person receives the Spirit of Christ and obtains the new birth: he is born into the Kingdom of God, he has been born of the Water and of the Spirit; he has received a transformation.
But now comes the physical transformation at the Last Day, where the believers in Christ will be transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb; and the ones who died will resurrect in eternal bodies, glorified bodies.
Therefore, the believers in Christ who are alive will obtain the double portion; as well as those who died, because they died and they only had the first portion: the new birth, they had the Holy Spirit, and therefore, they had that inner transformation, that spiritual transformation.
But now the double portion is the physical adoption, the physical transformation for the living, and for the dead in Christ the resurrection in glorified bodies; and then we will all have the fullness of God. Then we will all have two portions: the spiritual portion and the physical portion; and then we will completely be in the image and likeness of Christ, with heavenly bodies and glorified physical bodies. That is why we are waiting for that adoption: the redemption of the body.
We have already received a spiritual adoption, and we still need a physical adoption. We have received one part: the spiritual redemption, and now we need the part of the physical redemption; and we are going to receive it.
That is the only way to be able to escape the judgments that will come upon the Earth, it is the only way to be able to go to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb: having the Wedding Garment, which means having the heavenly body and the glorified physical body.
Having the Holy Spirit is the Wedding Garment, with a double portion: the spiritual portion (a heavenly body) and the physical portion (a glorified physical body).
Therefore, we ask God to help us at this end time because that moment is very close, that moment of the adoption, of the physical adoption.
The ministry of the Last Day will also be adopted; and therefore, that will be the ministry that will continue in the Millennial Kingdom.
Now, whenever we reach a time for adoption —like the time in which Christ had to be adopted— we reach a very, very difficult time: where everything makes it seem like the ministry has become very weak, and the whole situation becomes difficult, and even the situation of the world reaches a critical stage.
Reverend William Branham says that Paul went through that stage in his last days or months or years; where Saint Paul… who prayed for the sick and they were healed, who raised the dead, he also condemned people who rose against him, he cursed one person, telling him that he would not see the light of the sun for a season[12] and that is what happened; and so on and so forth. Then, when the time comes in which he is going to receive the crown of life, when he is going to die and go to Paradise, he finds himself in [a] situation where he says: “Everyone has forsaken me.”[13]
Demas (or Dimas) left, he forsook him;[14] it wasn’t that he stopped serving God, but he no longer supported Paul’s ministry, he didn’t think Paul was right; he thought Paul had lost all power, that God had already forsaken him; and that is what he thought of Paul. And he saw that Alexander the coppersmith, threw him (Saint Paul) out of the city, and he caused much evil to Saint Paul. Paul said that Alexander the coppersmith had done him so much evil, “May the Lord reward him according to his works.”[15] And so forth, they thought that Paul, well, that God had forsaken him.
It’s the same as when Christ was on the Cross, or when He was imprisoned and punished: they thought God had forsaken Him. But it was because He was in the most important stage: in the stage in which He had to pay the price of redemption; which no one could pay, except One who would come to the world sinless, and who would take the sins of all human beings and die for them.
And no one understood that mystery, only He did; to the point that He died as a sinner, because He died with the sins of mankind, and that is why He had to go to hell.[16] But He had a battle over there: He left the sins of mankind there, to the devil (who was the owner), and He took the keys of hell and death away from him,[17] and resurrected on Resurrection Day, and He brought the Old Testament saints with Him, who were in the bosom of Abraham.[18]
But the death of Christ was a disgrace to many people; but it was God’s grace in favor of the human being. It wasn’t a disgrace; it was grace, Divine grace.
And now, we find that the apostles, Peter and the other apostles, also went through very difficult stages.
Some people who think about their physical well-being say: “I am going to join religion, join church, so that God blesses me, so that my problems go away.” And sometimes, once they are in Church, they say: “Now I have more problems than before.” Every child of God must be tried.
And Christ did not say: “Take up your bouquet of flowers and follow Me,” but rather, “Take up your cross, and follow Me.”[19] And He also said: “In the world you will have tribulation. But fear not, I have overcome the world.”[20]
So, Christians go through different difficult stages, as individuals; and the Mystical Body of Christ as a Church has also gone through and goes through difficult stages, stages in which sometimes it seems as if the Church of the Lord is going to disappear; just as there are also stages where some believers go through stages in which it seems as if it’s all over for that person; just like it seemed as though it was all over for Christ, but He resurrected glorified and sat at the right hand of God, He obtained the victory.
There is no victory without a struggle, without a battle. “To him that overcomes will I grant to sit with Me in My throne, even as I also overcame, and have sat down with My Father in His throne.”[21]
See? There is nothing that says that He will give such-and-such a thing, such-and-such a reward, to someone who has done nothing; but rather to the overcomer.
Therefore, like faithful and wise servants (in the parable of chapter 24, verses 41 to 47 of Saint Matthew), faithful and wise servants who give the Food in due season to the children of God in the House of God: Let’s give everyone the spiritual Food relevant to our time every day of our lives, each one in his congregation, so that they have the spiritual Food relevant to our time and so that all the believers in Christ are well fed.
That’s also how it is from age to age for each messenger: He must have for the House of God, which is the Church —which the Holy Spirit is in charge of, through the messenger of each age— through the messenger, the Holy Spirit must come bringing that Food to the House of God.
Now, it also says that there are negligent servants who don’t do what they should do. And let’s see those servants as well, so that each one knows what to do in the Mystical Body of Christ. Chapter 24, verses… verse 48 to 51, says… I think we can read it from the – further up, verse 42 and on, says [Matthew]:
“Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.
But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.
Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.”
At what hour? In the first hour (the hour of the first age), the hour of the second, the third, the fourth? Or at which of the hours of the watches? At the first watch? At the second? At the third?
Now, it goes on to say:
“Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.
Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?”
Why have the ministers been put in the House of God, the Church of the Lord? To give them the spiritual Food, God’s Message relevant to the time in which we are living, see? “To give them Food (when?) in due season.”
Not giving them breakfast at dinner, because that has even gotten cold already, because breakfast corresponds to another time, another age.
We must know, we have to know what time we are living in; so that we take It —the Food that corresponds to that time— and give that Food to the people, and feed ourselves with that Food too; because It is Food for everyone, for all ministers and all believers in Christ.
At the end time, the evening time, what Food could It be? Well, the time for Food in the evening, which is dinner; it is a heavy meal, the last meal; the last Meal for the Church, for the believers in Christ. And after that Meal, then for the world comes the night: of the great tribulation, but for the Church: the catching away, transformation, catching away and Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Heaven.
We must give the Food in due season, not the Food of another past age, but the Food that corresponds to us in our time.
That’s how it is for each messenger of each stage of the Church and for the ministers of each stage, who, united with the messenger of their age, take that Food that the messenger receives from the Holy Spirit, or that the Holy Spirit gives through the messenger, which he receives and eats and shares with all the ministers, and then the ministers share It with their congregations. As simple as that.
“Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing”
The work of a pastor is to feed and care for the sheep of his Lord.
“Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.”
There is a great blessing; because just as you have worked and administered in the Mystical Body of Christ, later —in the Kingdom of the Messiah— you will have a very important position.
Christ said to His disciples: “You which have followed Me…” because Peter wanted to know: “Well, what will we have?” The Lord says to him: “You who have followed Me, who have been with Me, each of you will sit… the twelve of you will sit on twelve thrones, and judge the twelve tribes of Israel.” Saint Matthew, chapter 18, verses 26 to 28… or chapter 19 (it should be chapter 19) of Saint Matthew. Chapter 19, verses 28 to 30; and chapter 22 of Saint Luke, verses 28 to 30 as well.
Now, there is a great blessing for all the ministers and the messengers; every messenger and the ministers of his age together with their congregations, in the House of God, giving them the spiritual Food, the Word relevant to the age in which they are living. Those people who take care to properly feed the sheep with the Word of their age are faithful and wise servants.
Those servants…: there is the messenger of his age and the ministers of that age. But there are other ministers as well, let’s see. Verse 48 and on, says:
“But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming…”
Now notice, they question the Coming of the Lord: “No, that could still take thousands of years; it has already been two thousand years.” A thousand years ago they might have said: “It has already been a thousand years.” In our time they might say: “It has already been two thousand years, and the Lord still hasn’t come.”
The Coming of the Lord was not to be fulfilled in the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, or seventh age, but rather to be fulfilled in the stage of the Golden Age, the age in which the wheat is receiving the Light of the Sun to come to maturity.
And how do we know it wasn’t for any of the seven ages? Because it wasn’t fulfilled. As simple as that. But they had to be waiting.
Now, there are good and bad servants. It says:
“But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken…”
See? He starts to smite his fellow servants, to speak ill of his fellow servants; “to smite”: to hurt them, by saying bad things about his fellow servants, about his fellow ministers. See?
When you find people, ministers, speaking badly of the other ministers and of the other congregations, remember: here in the Scripture it speaks of people, of fellow servants, of ministers who would be doing that.
Therefore, you should know where those people stand and where you stand. And if you step out of place a little and nearly fall like one of these: No. You should get out of there and start to give the Food in due season, take proper care of the sheep, and speak well of the rest of the ministers, who, like you, strive to do the best in the Work of God and strive to serve the Lord as best as possible.
Each one has his own problems, and each one bears his own cross. Therefore, we aren’t going to be criticizing the rest of the ministers, but rather praying for them, so that they also succeed in reaching the goal of receiving the blessing: “Faithful and wise servant (faithful and wise), enter into the joy of your Lord.”[22]
We all want to be faithful to Christ, we all want to have the Lord’s sheep well fed (they are not ours, but the Lord’s), and we all want to hear the words of Christ: “Faithful and wise servant, enter into the joy of your Lord. Faithful and wise servant, you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things.”
We all want to hear the words, for those words to become a reality: “Verily I say unto you that He shall make him ruler over all His goods.” That is what He will do with the messenger of that age and with the ministers of that age, who will be His Cabinet to work in the Kingdom of the Messiah, and the group of believers of his age, which will be the working group of that messenger in the Kingdom of the Messiah.
It’s something like the patriarchs, who had their descendants who formed tribes, and each patriarch has his seed and it is a tribe. Such is each messenger together with the ministers of their age along with the believers of that age: they are like the tribes; and those messengers have a great blessing, as do the apostles and the patriarchs, which are the elders, the 24 elders who sit on 24 thrones, and have crowns of gold[23]: they are kings; and the apostles of the Lord will judge the twelve tribes of Israel.
So… The twelve apostles have to do with the Jews, and the messengers of the ages have to do with the Gentile Church. So, there is a Program for the Jews, and for the Church of the Lord there is also a Program.
“But and if that evil servant…”
Notice how He refers to him:
“But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;
And shall begin to smite his fellowservants…”
We should treat fellow ministers well. If he treats them badly: the person, the minister, falls into this category of smiting his fellow servants; and therefore, he forgets and neglects to properly feed the sheep with the Word for their time and starts to speak ill of the other ministers and the other congregations. And well, that is also with the purpose of the sheep leaving that minister and coming with him. Instead of helping and telling him: “Let’s… (uh…) let me know when you have activities, so I can help you. I’ll help you with the equipment if you don’t have it, I’ll help you with this, with that, so that you do the work and God blesses you.”
And the Scripture says: “Blessed is he who blesses you.”[24] Automatically, God will bless that collaborative person who helps another minister.
Ministers must have good fellowship with one another, and congregations must have good fellowship with one another. There shouldn’t be difficulties or problems between some pastors and other pastors, nor between some congregations and other congregations; because they would be putting themselves in the position of the problems there were between the pastors of Lot and the pastors of Abraham;[25] and the pastors between – the problems between the pastors of King Abimelech and the pastors of Isaac,[26] things like that. So, you shouldn’t have those types of problems.
The kind between Abimelech and Isaac were, it seems, in disagreement over the wells that they had – that they owned (I believe those were the ones between Isaac and Abimelech).
So, this is instead a time of unity and fellowship. We are in the time of the Age of Love Divine; therefore, everything must be done in Love Divine, in fellowship, and without allowing for individuals to come and sow tares among the people.
We can’t let people criticize other ministers, break up their congregations; instead, every minister should actually help the rest of the ministers so that their congregations are steadfast, and God continues to add more souls to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, and there is peace and harmony in the midst of the Church of the Lord.
That is the right attitude, that is the attitude that the ministers, who are faithful and wise servants, will have.
Those who will not be faithful and wise are the ones who will be smiting other ministers, trying to prevent the Program that God has for His Church at the Last Day from becoming a reality, where we know that there are great promises.
We know that there is the promise of a great manifestation from God, in which the faith to be transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb will come.
We know that at the Last Day… there is a promise for the Last Day. And why do we know that it’s for the end time? Because it wasn’t fulfilled in past times. As simple as that. And if it wasn’t fulfilled in past times, then it’s for us.
And by faith: the Divine promises are conquered by faith. Every Divine promise is conquered by faith; it is able to be obtained, that promise is able to be materialized, by faith.
But faith without works is dead.[27] It’s not a matter of saying: “I believe, I believe, I believe,” without doing anything. You believe, and then you do what has to be done so that it becomes a reality.
For example, if the promise is that Christ will provide us a place, a gathering place, then one believes it, and then he searches; and then he finds…, he asks God to bless him, to provide him the money to buy a place. He isn’t going to sit around waiting for a millionaire to come and tell him: “Look, here it is, take this, it’s for you.”
It would be like a joke there is, a story, about someone who begged for money; and he is begging, and a tourist comes along and takes pity on the person, and he stretches out his hand and is giving him a dollar bill (let’s say, 20 dollars); and he tells him: “Put them in here; please, put them in here.” Probably to take it quickly before the person changes his mind!
We have to do our part. Faith without works is dead; faith must be accompanied by work; and that is a work of faith. You act because you believed. You don’t act: well, because you didn’t believe. Works are the expression of faith.
If God has promised to give us something, then we work for it to become a reality, we work believing that we are going to obtain it.
If for Christianity, according to what was shown to Reverend William Branham, a Great Tent Cathedral will emerge in the midst of Christianity, then there will be a people, there will be a group of ministers and believers, who will work for that promise to become a reality. And since it was a vision of something that was going to happen, well, it will come true: God will support those people in the work, which will be based on what God has promised; they will conquer that promise.
There will be people like the servants who smite the other servants, who will do what was done when the tabernacle or the temple back in Israel had to be restored: there were other people who criticized them, and told them that even a fox would be able to break down those walls while passing over them, because of how weak they would be;[28] something like that. And likewise, well, there will be some who will oppose it.
Others will believe, they will say: “That is a promise for us! And thank God that it wasn’t fulfilled in other past times!”
There, in the fulfillment of that promise, the Pillar of Fire that delivered the Hebrew people, that Pillar of Fire that became flesh, that Pillar of Fire that was present among the Hebrew people the entire time, and that was there through the prophets and spoke through the prophets, and which was in Jesus, and which appeared upon Jesus when He was baptized;[29] and which later, on the Day of Pentecost, also came and baptized 120 people with tongues of fire; that same Pillar of Fire that appeared to Saint Paul and told him: “I am Jesus, whom you persecute”: that is the Angel of the Covenant.
He has been in the midst of His Church: “I will be with you always, even unto the end of the world,” Christ said in Saint Matthew, chapter 28, verse 20. How would He be? In Holy Spirit. He is that Pillar of Fire.
When that Pillar of Fire said to Saint Paul: “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me? It is hard for you to kick against the pricks” (chapter 9 and chapter 16 and chapter 22 of the book of Acts; and in 26 it seems that Saint Paul also speaks about that); that Light says to Saul: “I am Jesus, whom you persecute.”
That same Pillar of Fire has been accompanying the Church from age to age, and has been speaking through the messenger of each age, and has been baptizing millions of human beings who have received Christ as Savior.
We see that It accompanied Reverend William Branham. And in the vision where he was shown a Great Tent Cathedral, he saw that that Pillar of Fire moved, It moved from where It was to another place, to a small place, a little room; and It settled there, upon that little room, It went to that place; and the Angel who accompanied Reverend William Branham also went to that little room; and that is the Third Pull.[30]
And in the Third Pull the faith for the rapture will be given to the believers in Christ. So, the materialization of that vision will be a great blessing when we see it made a reality.
There will be a people, ministers and congregations, who will believe what was promised; which was already promised, it was already seen in operation. In other words, it’s not that it would be, but that it was seen: he was transported to that place; like John the apostle was transported to the Lord’s Day, and heard a Voice as of a trumpet that said: “I am the Alpha and Omega.”[31]
And now, that promise is going to become a reality in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, in the stage of the Golden Age, the Age of the Cornerstone; because it was not made a reality in past ages. Therefore, that promise is for us.
Just as we have worked on all the other promises, we will be working on that promise as well, so that it becomes a reality.
And of the things to be done or built, it seems like that is the last one.
Just like we must also have places to gather the congregations; that is a Work of God. We are not going to have them outdoors so that they get wet when it rains, and meanwhile they’re collaborating. We have to have the best for the sheep of the Lord.
So, we already know that at some point the Tent Vision is going to become a reality.
I believe and support that Tent Vision and the project of that Tent Vision, because it’s a Divine promise; and it has to become a reality, not with a messenger or a group of ministers or congregations of a past age; because if they didn’t do it in their time, it’s no longer time for them to do it. As simple as that.
Now it’s our time. And if it’s our time, those who live at the Last Day, then the people of the Last Day, the believers in Christ of the Last Day, are the ones who have to work on that project for it to become a reality; and it will be a blessing for people, for mankind.
The Third Pull will be fulfilled then, which will be for the Bride-Church, for the wise virgins (which are the Bride-Church), for the foolish virgins as well (all of Christianity) and for the world also.
And all of that is going to happen under a time of squeeze, the Third Pull will come in a time of squeeze; and when a time of squeeze comes, all things seem to have come to an end.
And now, I have to finish what I started for you here; he says[32]:
“318 I don’t think Demas went out into the world, ’cause Demas was of a…You know his history. He was of a big, rich family. And he wanted to go with the rest of the crowd.
319 But, Paul, poor little Paul. What was it? God always let’s a ministry get like that, and then crowns it.
320 He let Jesus get to a place. Look at there. When He could raise the dead, when He could do anything He wanted to; and let a Roman soldier jerk beard out of His face, and spit in His face. [Brother Branham make a spitting sound—Ed.] Hit Him on…Put a rag around His face, and said, ‘Now, You know, they tell me You are a Prophet.’ All of them stood around with the reeds (that is, with their sticks, the soldiers), and hit Him on the head. [Brother Branham makes a hitting sound.] Said, ‘Now tell us which one hit You.’ He knowed which one hit Him. Uh-huh. Sure. He did. See? But His ministry was fixing to be crowned.
321 It always gets that spot where it seems like it’s real, real weak, just about gone, then God crowns it.”
When that stage comes, in which it seems as though that ministry has no more strength, no more power, as though that ministry is over, as if it’s gone, it’s over already, he says: “Then God crowns it.” And he says:
“[321] O Lord, let it happen. Let it happen, Lord.”
Because he is also thinking about his ministry that God has in him, for it to be crowned.
So, the squeeze will be, and those stages of the squeeze, will be a time where it will seem like the ministry, and everything, as if its time is up, the ministry corresponding to the Last Day will no longer continue (but…), and it will seem very weak; but notice, that is the same time which Jesus went through, which Moses also went through, which Saint Paul went through, which Peter also went through; the apostles: they were killed, except John the Apostle.
And a difficult stage is coming, which we already know; and when it arrives, when that difficult stage fully begins, then he says: “Then look, what you have seen manifested partially (meaning, that Third Pull which we saw in the Reverend William Branham), will then be manifested in the fullness of Its power.”[33]
And he talks about that Third Pull and that it will be for the rapturing faith; and he tells us about the Third Pull in different places, in The Great Tent Cathedral that he saw; and so on. Everything is connected.
He speaks to us of resurrection; because it is for the time of resurrection, for transformation, for adoption; all that; and then for rapture. Because if it’s to receive the faith for the rapture, well, what comes after having the rapturing faith? Well, the promised rapture.
All of this is connected, and is part of the Divine Program corresponding to this end time.
The Third Pull, where and with whom is It going to be seen? Well, with those who will be doing what Reverend William Branham saw, where that Third Pull was manifested.
If that Third Pull was seen manifested in a Great Tent Cathedral, then where is It going to be seen? Well, in a Great Tent Cathedral; and from there It will spread by television to other nations.
So, the believers in Christ, and all ministers, will have their eyes fixed on what has been promised, and they will be working according to what has been promised.
There we have the Blueprint, the Work Program for the Last Day. They will be working led by God, according to the Scripture.
Like Moses: when they were building the tabernacle, they were working (in what?) in a Divine Program, in something that Moses had already seen.
And it will also be the same way at the Last Day: there will be a group of ministers and congregations that will be working according to what was seen in a vision, which was shown to Reverend William Branham, regarding a Great Tent Cathedral, where he says that the Third Pull is going to be manifested.
So, those who will be interested in the Third Pull, will be working on that place in which the Third Pull will be manifested.
It doesn’t matter what criticisms they make against those people; the important thing is what God says, the important thing is what God has in His Program.
We know that a squeeze will come against the Church of the Lord; and none of us wants to provoke it. If someone provokes it, he will answer to God. If because of something that someone does wrong or against the Program that God has for our time, he provokes or causes a squeeze to come, then God will hold him accountable later on.
We all want to work so that all that God has promised is fulfilled and to be transformed as soon as possible; because the way things are in the environment, because of global warming, because of the hole… in the ozone layer as well, and other problems, we don’t want to be here on Earth for very long. We want to be transformed as soon as possible!
I don’t want to live here on Earth for many years; I want to be transformed as soon as possible and go to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Therefore, I will be doing my part. And who else will be doing their own part? Each one of you as well.
Therefore, let’s all work united in the Work of the Lord always, knowing the time in which we have been given to live, knowing our position in the Mystical Body of Christ and knowing the position of the Church in the Mystical Body of Christ: which position the Church is in, which age the Lord’s Church is in; and working in that age.
We won’t go to another age to work, because they already passed. We won’t go to another past dispensation either, because the work of another past dispensation already ended. We won’t go to the time of Noah to build an ark, because that was for him to do. Instead, the material that we can buy to build an ark…, or we invest the money in material for a Great Tent Cathedral (heh!), which is what is promised for this end time.
So, we will be supporting every Divine project promised for this end time, we will be supporting every promised Word so that it becomes a reality in the midst of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; and thus, so that Christianity has the blessings of the fulfillment of the great promises, of great Divine blessings for this end time.
Well, Miguel, may God bless you and keep you. And those who are over there, don’t turn off the broadcast, or are you going to end it already? [A brother says: Yes.] Yes, you can now turn it off there in other countries. So, the broadcast is ending now; and in the evening we will be with you all again, and all the brothers and sisters who will be gathered here.
Well, may God bless you and keep you; and I leave with you Mr. Benjamín Cruz Alfaro.
(You may now end the broadcast.)
Well, may God bless you and keep you.
