Glory, people of God, my brothers, my sisters, peace of the Lord Jesus. Amen. Please open your Bible to Revelation, chapter number one.
Wonderful. Revelation, chapter 1. Let us read verse 7.
Behold, he is coming with the clouds, and every eye will see him, even those who pierced him, and all the tribes of the earth will wail on account of him. Yes. Amen.
Verse 10, please. I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day, and I heard behind me a loud voice like a trumpet. Glory to God.
Verse. Let me just choose one verse for you to be seated, then I will expound on the text. 15.
His feet were like burnished bronze, refined in a furnace, and his voice was like the roar of many waters. You may be seated. Thank you very much, dear brothers.
The apocalypse is not a book of chaos. We usually consider apocalyptic that which is understood as destruction, but apocalypse simply means revelation. Verse one says the revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave him to show his servants the things.
that must soon take place. These are not things that might happen, nor things that will take a long time to happen. God confirming that it will happen, and to Him, time is brief, it is now.
And these are things that must happen. And so they have been happening from John's time until our own. The revelation of Jesus Christ.
To remove the veil, to expose the greater glory. Both John and the other brothers were accustomed to the Galilean Christ, the man of the cross, the simple carpenter. But now there is a new revelation.
He will be demonstrated, and what hides this glorious person will be removed. And the apocalypse is the revelation of a person, Jesus Christ. It is a totally Christocentric book.
That is why we cannot avoid this book. And whoever avoids this book is preventing many, many blessings from reaching their life . Verse two says that this revelation is given to someone who testified to the word of God, proved that God's word is true, and given to someone.
who was not ashamed of the testimony of Jesus Christ. What Christ said and did, John witnessed. And the word witness is the origin of the word martyr.
So, John risked his own life to confirm everything Jesus did. and said verse 3 will explain what I said, that whoever does not read this book, Fabiana Anastásio, Pastor Rubens, I love you. And the worshiper goes beyond a voice.
I learned from my wife. She is fancy. Verse 3 says: "Blessed is the one who reads and those who hear the words of this prophecy and keep the things that are written in it, for the time is near.
" This is the only book in the Bible that promises happiness to those who honor it and a curse to those who despise it. There are many people under a curse because they remove the words of this book, their access to the tree of life. It will be taken away, they will not enter the city by the gates, and the happiness of chapter 1, verse 3, is not guaranteed to them.
Why ? Because many among us do not read and do not care to hear the words of this book. In some environments where I preach, when I open the Bible to Revelation, I notice two reactions.
Some say, "Oh boy," others, "They won't understand anything anyway. " There is a certain contempt. Some find Revelation interesting for tough guys.
Others say: "I won't understand anything anyway, I'm going to nap. "" I'll go outside, get a snack, or steal the church neighbor's Wi-Fi. " Revelation is despised.
These kinds of people haven't yet managed to experience the promise of verse 3. Now notice the details, please. "Blessed is the one who reads"(singular) "and those who hear"(plural) "the words of this book and also keep them.
" To keep is to memorize. To keep is to value. To keep is to protect.
To keep is to pay attention. Why the one who reads ( singular) and those who hear (plural)? There are two reasons.
The first is historical; wherever the book went, especially the letters to each church, wherever the letter passed or arrived, it was delivered to the angel of the church. So, the leader, the angel of the church, received the letter. Not everyone had access.
Most of the time, the Christians were so poor, the meeting places so small, that only the angel, the messenger, read the letter. So, he is reading Revelation, he is reading the letter, and the brothers are there listening. So, "Blessed is the one who reads" and those "who hear.
" So, he is reading, but he is blessed. Whoever is listening to me says: "Glory to God. " God.
So, the one who is reading is edifying himself, and those who are listening are also being edified. Now, another meaning. "Blessed is the one who reads" (singular) "and those who hear"(plural) , obviously.
But there are more who hear than those who read. However, this book is so special that the blessing is guaranteed for both. So, you who are listening to the word of the apocalypse , there is already a blessing of God upon your life.
One of the meanings of blessed is to go further, to take an extra step. This book guarantees happiness. Now, now, now, now.
We all like promises, we all like blessings, we all like the word of blessedness. So , why do we read this book so little? So, why do we value the words of prophecy in this book so little?
I will not deny the complexity, but familiarity can make it easier. Research and study can make you love it , because those who do not know it will hardly love it. I repeat, the complexity is notable.
Martin Luther, Calvin, great exegetes, expositors, practically despised this book, perhaps because in their time the signs were not as evident as they are in our time. But our generation, I need your attention right here, needs to wake up to the value of this book. And when I saw the theme and the basis of the theme, I got excited.
I love meditating on the words of this book. So understand, if it's a book that has a promised blessing, if it's a book that has guaranteed blessedness, why do we read it so little? The fact that we read this book in a limited way or almost never saddens God, but pleases Satan.
Let me ask you a question and please answer me. I ask you. Would you like the book of your defeat to be publicized?
Be sincere, would you like the book of your defeat to be publicized? No. The devil rejoices every time this book is less read and understood among Christians.
Our minds are trapped in isolated and distorted texts, mainly from the Old Testament. And when we trap our minds in isolated, distorted texts, and do not value the book of Revelation, the devil still tolerates it. But if you dedicate yourself to meditating on this book, and that is what I intend to do in tomorrow's message, the devil will be more furious with us.
And that is very good for us. Why, dear one? Because you realize in the Bible that Satan's pleasure is to keep you from meditating on the words that guarantee his defeat.
Whoa! If there is a word that reveals his defeat, then in this book, in this word, our victory is decreed. So, that is why he cannot stand it.
Frustrate Satan, leave him with no pleasure in watching you. He did it with Adam and Eve. Yes.
He twisted the word, isolated them from what God said about them and to them, please, Adam and Eve fall in paradise. Then he comes to Jesus and says: "I defeated the first Adam by making him forget the word that came from the mouth of God. I will defeat this one too.
by making him forget the word. But he was wrong, because that is not the first Adam, it is the last Adam. When he arrives and makes the first proposal, twisting the word, Jesus, alone in the desert, says: " Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.
"What Jesus is saying is:" What my father said at the Jordan, I kept and I will not disregard. "Understand, please. Some are already understanding, but others need to grasp it even more.
Adam gave up the word of God. Jesus relied on the word of God and defeated Satan. So, understand, Revelation is to us what the scriptures were to Jesus.
The devil defeats two in the garden who despise the word and loses to one in the desert who valued the word. The devil defeats Adam and Eve. in their home, the garden, because they despised the word.
Jesus defeats Satan away from home. Huh, because desert, one of the meanings of desert is the house of the serpent. And since Genesis, Satan is presented as the serpent.
Revelation calls him the ancient serpent. So, Jesus clung to the scriptures and won. If you despise Revelation, you will not know the message of your victory and you will not know the message of Satan's defeat.
So, understand what I am going to tell you. When you get to Revelation, you see that he tries, he tries with persecution, but he does not defeat the martyrs. He tries with the antichrist, but is put to shame.
He tries with the false prophet, but is put to shame. He comes as a dragon, pursuing the woman who is about to give birth to a son, Israel. The son, Christ , he pursues, he tries to destroy, but the woman gives birth, the son grows and ascends.
He tries, as a dragon, to fight against the angels, but is cast out of there. He tries to shine as a star, but the stars fall. He tries, after the millennium, to surround the camp of the saints, but fire falls from heaven.
He and his minions are destroyed and he is thrown into the lake of fire. So you realize that Revelation is saying:" Satan's defeat is already decreed. "That is why he doesn't want you to read the book of Revelation first, because it shows his defeat.
So, get ready to give a beautiful glory to God. When you read Revelation, you are reminded of Satan's future, because his pleasure is to trap you in your past. He makes you look back and feel ashamed.
He makes you— my body is shivering with what I am saying here. He makes you look back and says:" You don't deserve it. You can't, you won't.
Look at what your parents did. Look at what your parents said. Look at where you were introduced.
He makes you look back because your past is shame and his past is glory. Then Revelation says: "Look over here, because his future is the lake of fire and your future is in the heavenly mansions. It is participating in the glories of the church in glory.
Hallelujah! So I need to tell you this. Value the book of Revelation.
The predominant theme in this book is the return of Christ and the establishment of his kingdom. The devil doesn't want that, he can't stand that, but that is what the church needs to carry on. Now notice, brother, back to verse one: the revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave him.
Sir, please, I'm not here to play games, but please, stand up with me here. God gave him the revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave him to show his servants the things that must shortly happen and he sent it by his angel. Please, worker.
Either one of you. Yes. Please, sir, please, closer to me, pastor.
And he sent it by his angel and signified it to his servant John. Pastor Flávio, here, look at what Revelation is. Revelation that God gave to his son and signified it to the angel.
And the angel gave it to John. So, the Father, God the Father , looks at God the Son and says:" The revelation of your glory, the revelation of your person is ready. " The Son receives it, the Son receives it, calls the angel and says:" This is my revelation.
"" Do what must be done. "From the Father to the Son, from the Son to the angel. The angel sees John and the divinity says:" Angel, deliver the revelation to my servant.
"" And the angel delivers the revelation to John. "Thank you, both of you. The divinity, the angel passes the revelation to John and from John to his own.
Look at how wonderful the divinity is. They share. The Father said:" Here is the revelation of our glory.
"The Son said:" Angel, here is the revelation of our glory. "The angel goes to John," John, here is the revelation of heaven's glory. "Then John says:" Church, read the Apocalypse , for here is the revelation of heaven's glory.
"Glory to God! If you share this conference, as the pastor said, take photos, just don't stick your tongue out. Oh, how gross, my God in heaven.
I can't stand seeing so many tongues and duck faces anymore. And bathrooms have become photo studios. So share it, I mean, share the revelation, because Brazil needs to wake up to the revelation of the Apocalypse.
So, until He comes, we share the revelation until He comes. I will repeat the little word that is in fashion, it is in style. We share the revelation.
Ah, dear, God gave you a word, share it. God gave you a composition, share it. " Oh, I am preaching, I will preach another preacher's message.
"No, a preacher is not the owner of a message. The Father gave the revelation to the Son, the Son gave the revelation to the angel. The angel gave the revelation to John.
John gave the revelation to the church. For from Him, through Him, to Him; from Him the source, through Him the process, to Him the destination. All things are, everything comes from Him.
So, we need to share the revelation. Until He comes, we share it. John introduces himself from verse 4, verse 6, John shows what the church is, a priestly kingdom.
From verse 7, listen, John says, He is coming with the clouds , according to the experience of Exodus 19, Mark chapter 14 verse 60. He comes as promised in Acts 1. He comes with the clouds, as prophesied in Paul's first letter to the Thessalonians, chapter 4, verses 16 to 17.
So John confirms in verse 7, He is coming with the clouds. Verse eight, Jesus presented Himself to him saying:" I am the first, I am the last, I am the beginning, I am the end. Everything began in Me and with Me, and everything ends in Me.
From verse 9, John now continues introducing himself and talks about the place where he is. It is a complicated place. It is an island isolated from everything, from everyone , holes, caves.
There he is in a hostile, dirty, stinking, despicable environment, a place for criminals, a prison, not a summer camp. And he says: "I was there because of the word and the testimony of Jesus. You are not suffering alone, brothers.
I am your companion in affliction. He means that while you suffer there, I also suffer here. And while I suffer here, you also suffer there.
And sometimes when we think of John's anguish, it's clear that we go through similar distress. And when we go through similar distress , loneliness, contempt, we ask:" Why me ? "And from heaven I believe Jesus asks :" And why not you?
"God. What I understand about John is that no one suffered more before dying than him , but no one had such glorious revelations as him. And that gladdens me, because if you go through what no one else does, you will reach where no one else can.
The more things get complicated for you, the more revelation from God will come to you, to us. Now, while he does not come, or until he comes, let us hear his voice. John says in verse 10:" I was in the spirit on the Lord's day, which historically, customarily, is Sunday, I was in the spirit on the Lord's day and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet ".
Yes. John hearing the trumpet voice is a voice of awakening. Later John says in verse 15 about the same voice, he says:" And his voice was like the sound of many waters.
Please, it's bothersome, but not much. Say with me: sound of a trumpet. Sound of a trumpet.
His voice. His voice was also was also like the sound of many waters. So John has a double experience with the voice of Jesus, the Lord.
He hears the Lord's voice and he identifies the impact of this voice in John's inner being as the sound of a trumpet. So John is saying: "I was on the island, but suddenly the voice that reached me awakened me". It is like the awakening voice for the wise and foolish virgins.
It is like the voice of Jesus while the disciples slept in Gethsemane. It is like the voice of God in Exodus 19. The Bible says that the Lord descended in a flame of fire and furnace, and his voice was with a great blast of trumpets, voices, and thunders.
And now John identifies this voice in Revelation 1 as a trumpet voice. Because in John's time it was the sound that awakened soldiers for war. It was the sound that awakened men for battle and also for worship in the temple, as happened in the time of Jesus.
And also to change the soldiers 'shifts. John, hearing the voice like a trumpet, feels, as I said, awakened. So , this voice is saying: "Pay attention, disconnect now from the environment you are in.
""Tune in here, focus here, because the sound of the voice like a trumpet attracts John. " So, when he hears the voice like a trumpet, he already feels a change in his body. He realizes he is no longer inside there.
Simply when he has the vision of this glorified Christ, which is John's intention—forgive me, the intention of the Apocalypse to John, there in the verse we read, 15, he says: "Now, after I identified him in the midst of the seven lampstands, his voice is like the sound of many waters. " That is, first he hears it like a trumpet, now like the voice of many waters. So he finds himself in a new experience, because God is leading him to something surprising.
John was used to hearing, I repeat, John was used to hearing. He heard the voice of God the Father on the Mount of Transfiguration. Jesus called three disciples, Peter, James, and John.
Some commentators believe it was Mount Tabor. And there Jesus said: "I am going to be transfigured. " To transfigure means to show what is on the inside.
So, when Jesus is praying before them, catch this. His garments began to shine. Lights began to come out.
Those garments were like a veil covering those clothes over the body. Both the body and the garments were like veils that covered the God inside the human skin. His face began to shine like the sun and the disciples started covering their faces with their hands.
The garments began to be illuminated and whitened. And the Bible says this, the Bible says this: "And Jesus' garments began to become so white, so white, so bright, as no launderer could make garments so clear. " So bright.
To transfigure means to show what is on the inside. I will ask those who are tuned in. To transfigure means.
That sounds fancy, but let's make it simple. To transfigure means to show what is inside. And why then do the garments become pure?
If to transfigure is to show what is on the inside. Why then do the garments become bright? When the garments become bright and transfiguration is showing what is on the inside, the Bible is confirming Jesus is holy, Jesus is pure.
Suddenly Moses and Elijah appear, and the disciples are like: "Wow, Moses. " Exactly. And the others?
And the others ? Maybe John, James, imagine Peter, Elijah. But who took them up the mountain?
Jesus. Who is being transfigured? Jesus.
Then Moses and Elijah descend. And the disciples are enchanted. Wow!
Moses, Elijah. Then suddenly the disciples heard a voice. And from the cloud a voice came forth that said: "This is my beloved son.
It is him you must hear now, now, now Moses and Elijah and Jesus remained. " John heard that voice. He heard that voice even while stunned, he had that experience.
In chapter 12 of the Gospel according to John, in his last sermon, Jesus said: "Father, I know I came for this hour, but my soul is troubled unto death. " Then Jesus said: "Father, glorify your name. " John was there.
Then the Bible says the Father shouted and everyone heard a sound of thunder. And the Father said: "I have already glorified it and will glorify it even more. " I am showing you John's experiences with voices.
When we reach the cross, John 19, Luke 23, Matthew 26:27, Mark 13: 1, John and some women are at the foot of the cross . Jesus is bleeding. Jesus is feverish, Jesus is torn.
Jesus is thirsty. Jesus is alone. Jesus has a choked voice.
But John is there at the foot of the cross. And when John is at the foot of the cross, Jesus finds strength. And the Bible says that Jesus saw John, looked at John and said: "Son, behold your mother.
" Glory woman. Behold your son. Then the Bible says, from that moment on, John took Mary into his home.
In other words, he said: "I heard the voice of my Lord to care for you and I will care for you. " Oh brother, look how wonderful. Look how wonderful.
John heard the Father's shout. John, in chapter 9 of the Gospel according to Mark, John hears the Father's shout in John 12. John now hears the Lamb's choked voice on the cross and obeys anyway.
But on the day of Pentecost, John heard a new sound. Hallelujah. When the day of Pentecost had fully come, they were all gathered in one place.
Suddenly there came from heaven a sound as of a rushing, mighty wind, which filled the house. And John is there saying: "I am wonderful, I am wonderful ! " And suddenly John, who admires the sound, releases the sound of new tongues, because he received power for it.
Warm up with me and give glory to God, please. He hears this sound. Look at what he says in chapter one of his first epistle.
First Epistle of John, chapter 1, verse 1. That which was from the beginning, which we have heard. That which was from the beginning, he is the one who was from the beginning.
And that which we have heard, that which we have seen with our own eyes. And that which we beheld and our hands touched, he is the word of life. Glory to God.
In the gospels, because he is the youngest, John is the one who speaks the least. Glory to God. In the gospels, because he is the youngest, John is the one who speaks the least.
But he is sent in the apocalypse to the island of contempt and Domitian saying: "I am emperor, I speak and you remain silent. " But John was used to and to remaining Domitian says: "I speak and you remain silent. " But John was a preacher.
John was an apostle. After he heard the sound of heaven in Acts 2, he goes out preaching the message of heaven. Then the emperor says: "Be quiet, pastor.
" So, in the Domitian empire he says: "I silenced the preacher. " In the Domitian empire he says: "His voice will no longer be heard. I shut his mouth.
" But Domitian is only remembering the voice. And Jesus says: "There is more in him that I can use. " Jesus appears to John and says: "What do you see?
Write what you see, write it down. " Some people aren't understanding. I will explain.
They may limit you in some part of your life, but there is a part that God is keeping , protecting, and preserving. And God is saying: "I am keeping an eye on that . " And that is what I am going to use.
What you see, you write; Lord, here I can't speak, write it down. One time, I saw a little sister who called Jesus " Jesuse". She would go to talk about the ulcer, said it was "u-l", she said: " Glory to God".
But one day before singing, she said: "My brothers, I know my life is ending. That is why I worship Jesus clapping my hands and stomping my feet. If someone asks me why, I say:" Because, it's because I have hands.
"It's because I have feet to applaud and praise, with hands and with feet. But if hands and feet are missing, she said:" I sing with my voice, and if my voice is missing, I sing with my soul. And if the soul is missing, it's because I've already ascended and I'm singing that He is holy.
I've already ascen- until He comes, let us hear His voice. And John was used to hearing, yes or no ? Yes.
But he is only good at listening because he was the youngest. And since he was the youngest, he spoke, he spoke little. Understand?
Youngest throughout the Book of Revelation, John hears voices, John hears sounds. John hears thunder. In chapter 5, he says: " I heard a mighty angel proclaim.
Who is worthy to open the scroll? Then, when the Lamb opens the scroll, John says, John says:" I heard the voices of the elders, of the living creatures, and of every creature in heaven, on earth, under the earth, and in the sea, saying : 'Worthy is the Lamb and the One who sits on the throne to receive praise and adoration'. "So, John hears voices from all creation after he heard the voice of Jesus.
Because any voice you hear without hearing the voice of Jesus, will not prepare you for the rapture of the church. My God, many voices are echoing. Men want to change the principles of God with their speeches.
We have been hearing them out there. Sometimes it's even good to say:" It's better to hear that than to be deaf. " But that doesn't affect you.
But the voice of the devil is shouting out there. I don't care. I already know the voice of the Good Shepherd.
If I know His voice, that doesn't enchant me. So, the first sound is the sound of awakening. The first sound is the sound of awakening.
It is the sound of" pay attention. "It is the sound of" look over here. "It is the sound of" look at me.
"But then he says His voice was like the sound of many waters. In other words, understand what I am about to tell you. Voice, like voice, the sound of Christ's voice is like the sound of many waters.
Because I I went I went I went to preach in Jalapão and they told me:" Pastor, let's go to that waterfall. "And if if my memory serves me right, the name of the waterfall was Formiga Waterfall. So I'm going there with Luana, newly married.
We went to preach in Jalapão and were heading to the waterfall, and from far away we heard the sound. of many waters. But we were far away.
We were far away. We were far away and the sound of many waters and we kept getting closer and we kept talking, because women don't talk little. So we kept talking, me and Luana, and the brothers leading us, brother.
And suddenly the sisters were heard and I and the brothers were here in front. And we arrived at the waterfall and I thought, what a beautiful thing, what an amazing thing, how wonderful it is. This is God's creation.
Then when I looked back at the brothers I said:" Can't you hear me ? "I had to go down the stairs to talk to them. Why?
When I had to explain what I was saying, the Holy Spirit spoke to my heart:" That is how my voice is. When I shout, the voice of man is silenced. It is my voice that remains.
"" That is why John hears a voice like the voice of many waters. God is telling me to tell someone: "It doesn't matter what they told you. What matters is what God says about you.
And when you listen to what He says, all other voices must be silenced. Like a voice as the voice of many waters. I am from Luz, Bahia.
Bahian. I am a believer. That's us.
So it is surrounded by the sea. And you notice the rocks, rocks that the great waters shaped. Look at the sound that many waters make.
The stones are altered from their natural form to another. When the waters that release a strong sound come against them. Glory to God.
Ah, how I wish you would understand this. Let me see how I can explain this to you. The water keeps hitting and the stone says:" I won't accept it.
"My God! And the water comes, the sound, the voice like the sound of water comes. Splash!
" I don't like believers, " and the believer on his knees says" more Jesus. "Shh. What day is there a service at your church?
Will you take me with you? Who is singing that song? I thought that song was beautiful.
And the believer says" more Jesus "and the water comes now. I want to accept your Jesus. I want to serve the God you serve.
No, oh Stones. I can only do one thing when I understand that His voice is like the voice of many waters. Hold the hand of someone next to you.
Hold the hand of someone next to you. I repeat, hold the hand of someone next to you. Say this:" Talk less and pray for God to shout in your house, because the heart of stone will break.
Jesus will save them, He will save them. They're arrogant, talk to Him. Jesus is proud.
I was born Catholic, I will die Catholic. I was born into macumba, I will die in macumba. I was born this way, I will die this way.
Lie. Jesus takes the hard vessel that’s no good and turns it into a vessel of value. Jesus takes Saul the persecutor and says: Saul, boom, he fell.
When he is on the ground, the stone became soft. Who are You, Lord? I am Jesus, the one you are persecuting now.
I had an encounter with you. Speak God, speak God, touch me with grace from the altar . Speak, God.
God rejoices at your again. from the altar. You can raise your hand.
Speak God. Speak God. God.
You can worship, you can worship. He deserves it. Go to sleep, Samuel.
I can't. Go lie down, girl. I can't take it because His voice won't let me be still.
God will shout and will disturb those you haven't touched. You have talked so much and it was no use. You have preached so much and it was no use.
Thus says the Lord. They can resist your voice. But when I speak, I break.
When I speak, I bring. When I speak, I raise. When I speak, I transform.
When I speak, I en- the whole church with me. I heard, I heard. Stop messing around.
I heard. I heard His voice. His voice like a sound.
As I am. Hallelujah! Hallelujah!
Water, still water makes noise. Glory. Speak God.
God combats place. If the water is in motion, it will make, it will make noise. Noise.
Hallelujah. I am already 70%water. The spirit that dwells in me is a fountain that flows to eternal life.
The water is the word that regenerates. His voice is like the sound of many waters. I was not born to stand still.
I will worship . I will rise up. I will preach.
I will stand tall, I will win. Speak God. Yes.
Water that moves makes noise. If it makes noise it's because it is moving. Hold on.
I'll ask and you react. If you're not getting it, I understood nothing. Because it’s not connected.
Now I will ask. If it makes movement, it makes And moving water keeps filth. Speak, God.
Speak, God. Touch me, touch me, if it is stagnant, come in and stay. But when it moves, hallelujah, besides having, all the dirt, I kept your word, my God, in my heart.
So that I don't so that I don't stain your name, so I don't stain the gospel, because the word I keep moves in me and removes the dirt. John 15, Jesus said: "You are already clean. " Forgive me.
John 17. You are already clean because of the word I have spoken to you. The first day I slept with my baby.
Huh, beautiful just like you. I already put the video of the story of Joseph there. My wife asked, "What is that, love?
" I said, "The story of Joseph. " Read the Bible to your children. After you read the Bible with your children, and even if they stray, one day they will remember and say, "Oh, God of my mother, oh, God of my father, It's no use, the dirt won't leave your mind if you don't read the Bible.
If you don't meditate on the scriptures, you will continue in the path of the sinner and in the seat of the scoffer and you will stay there, you won't be able to leave. Pastor, how can I have an experience with the voice of many waters? What do you mean, pastor?
The Bible is the only book that speaks in the tone of God's voice. I don't know whose quote it is, but it's not mine. But that, that is the truth.
It's the only book that has— brother, you've sent a WhatsApp message like this, right? Then the other person sent one from there. Then you, they say ," You're crazy, how can you say a thing like that?
"You say," I won't explain here by audio. "Send an audio. Send an audio.
In other words, messages have no feeling. The only book you open to read. And if you think, oh child of the devil, the only book that when you're like," I'm fine, I'll sin if I want, the hand is mine, nobody has anything to do with it.
"Then you get to the gospels," If your right hand causes you to sin, cut it off. "God, it's the only book where the mother says," You're a believer now? Get out of my house.
"" You're a believer now? Don't look at my face anymore. "Then you take this book and you go read.
Then you arrive at:" Even if your father and mother abandon you, I will never abandon you. "Then you say:" Why? "Because this book has a sound.
Pastors know this. If we read any book on a plane, people just walk by. But when you are reading the Bible, speak God, speak God.
Stand up. The Lord is God is raising up missionaries here today. Through whom will God speak?
Through you. How beautiful. Listen.
Then continue. The only way for God to reach the sinner is through us. If God doesn't speak through the church, He won't speak through anyone else.
The letter was given to us. The revelation was given to us. There are lives out there.
I know this is annoying to some, but there are lives out there that will only hear God through your testimony. Oh, oh, look at this. We are still the ones who win the most lives and the ones who lose the most.
Because we see them arrive here, but don't see them leave there. I'm finishing up. Don't talk right now.
That cannot happen here right now. I don't know if I'm upsetting some leaders, but when it's our Assembleano custom, where I make the call, the call, do you understand the invitation? I see people, please, I see people coming like this, to Jesus, look, and the brothers are like, hallelujah, glory to God.
No. Come with him. Come with her.
And when the service ends, don't go to your little group. We're the pizza group, we're the burger group, the square group, the bus group. Then the sinner, pardon me, the new convert.
Lord have mercy. You already understood, right? Speak God, speak.
Amen. Alright, alright, alright. Alright.
You who are not evangelical, you who have strayed from the gospel, some girl will invite you, some guy will invite you, and he or she will come with you to the front, because we are going to pray for you. M.
