  1. 0:12Good evening.
  2. 0:15Well, it is a joy to see you and a joy
  3. 0:18to celebrate this reality that is Christ
  4. 0:22in us, which has allowed me to enjoy Him
  5. 0:26in all things and see Christ through you
  6. 0:29.
  7. 0:30So, I am home.
  8. 0:32The house is Christ. We dwell in Him.
  9. 0:37We are God’s inheritance.
  10. 0:40So, if you will join me, we can pray.
  11. 0:46Lord, in the name of Jesus Christ, You
  12. 0:47seated us at Your table, though we did
  13. 0:49not deserve it.
  14. 0:51We entered into Your Son by pure grace.
  15. 0:55We received the blessing that was not
  16. 0:58meant for us because there was a
  17. 1:00substitute, and now, because He is holy
  18. 1:03, we are also holy. And because He lives
  19. 1:06, we also live, Lord.
  20. 1:09Lord, we are completely willing for
  21. 1:12something eternal and spiritual to
  22. 1:15transform us forever, until the end of
  23. 1:18time, by pure grace and for the glory of
  24. 1:21Your holy name.
  25. 1:22In the name of Christ Jesus.
  26. 1:24Amen.
  27. 1:26Amen. Well,
  28. 1:30I want to share with you, I believe,
  29. 1:33that we are going to spend a precious
  30. 1:35time eating from the bread of life.
  31. 1:40We will have time for questions and
  32. 1:43answers, so I encourage you to write
  33. 1:45down any question you have, because
  34. 1:48after each plenary session, there will
  35. 1:51be a time we call "living," right?
  36. 1:55For questions and answers.
  37. 1:58Remember that this doesn't always happen
  38. 2:00in these settings, right?
  39. 2:03So, as my mom used to say when we went
  40. 2:05to a party, she would tell me, "Eat now
  41. 2:06, because when we go home, there’s
  42. 2:07nothing."
  43. 2:10This is the moment. Is that okay?
  44. 2:13One of the things I want
  45. 2:16to say is why a "reality conference,"
  46. 2:21right?
  47. 2:23What is reality?
  48. 2:26The reality we are referring to has to
  49. 2:29do with that which is the only thing God
  50. 2:32calls real.
  51. 2:35The word used in Scripture 110 times in
  52. 2:38the New Testament is the word*aletheia*
  53. 2:41.
  54. 2:43The word*aletheia*is a truth that was
  55. 2:45hidden, but now there is an uncovering
  56. 2:48of that truth, which is the only thing
  57. 2:51God calls truth.
  58. 2:53In other words, God the Father was
  59. 2:55seeing a reality before everything was
  60. 2:58created.
  61. 3:01He was seeing in eternity His own
  62. 3:03glorified Son and, in Him, a people.
  63. 3:07We were known in Him before everything
  64. 3:10was created.
  65. 3:12What the Father was seeing is what He
  66. 3:15was going to reveal to the saints, to
  67. 3:18those who now have the nature of Christ
  68. 3:20and the mind of Christ to have access by
  69. 3:24faith to that reality.
  70. 3:26The first one to whom God reveals this
  71. 3:28reality is the apostle Paul.
  72. 3:30It says, "I know a man in the body, or
  73. 3:33out of the body, I do not know.
  74. 3:35God knows, who was caught up to the
  75. 3:37third heaven, who was caught up to
  76. 3:39paradise and saw
  77. 3:42that which the Father always saw in his
  78. 3:44own Son.
  79. 3:45And now that mystery which was hidden
  80. 3:48from eternal times, is now unveiled and
  81. 3:51brought to the sight of all the saints,
  82. 3:54of all who come to him.
  83. 3:58It is
  84. 4:00the only thing God calls, right?
  85. 4:03So, when Jesus came, he said," I am the
  86. 4:06truth.
  87. 4:07"In other words, he did not come to
  88. 4:09speak about the truth, he came to bear
  89. 4:12witness to the truth.
  90. 4:14He was, I mean, he came to bear witness
  91. 4:16of himself. Everything that is true
  92. 4:19proceeds from him, who is the substance
  93. 4:21of the truth.
  94. 4:22And that truth is now in his own body.
  95. 4:26He imparted himself in life
  96. 4:30and everything that we now carry is the
  97. 4:32nature of all that the Father saw before
  98. 4:34everything was created and what God
  99. 4:36calls truth.
  100. 4:39The truth can now be seen.
  101. 4:43And where is it?
  102. 4:45In us, in those who are in Christ.
  103. 4:47But how do we access that truth?
  104. 4:50Well, we are going to talk about that
  105. 4:52because that mystery which was hidden
  106. 4:53from eternal times, God now reveals to
  107. 4:55the saints.
  108. 4:58So, how many times does one ask
  109. 5:01themselves, I mean, I hear so many
  110. 5:03brothers say," But why does what others
  111. 5:07live or what others see not happen to me
  112. 5:10? "
  113. 5:12Because I am still in that need, in that
  114. 5:15hunger, in that desire to be able to see
  115. 5:18what others communicate, right?
  116. 5:22And without a doubt, we must understand
  117. 5:24that that is where the deception is
  118. 5:26placed, that is where the virus is
  119. 5:28placed, right?
  120. 5:32We will see it in this time that we are
  121. 5:35going to share, because it is not the
  122. 5:38same to have it solved in my head.
  123. 5:42Well, it is not the same to have it
  124. 5:44solved in my head as it is to have
  125. 5:47access to eternal realities.
  126. 5:49I mean, to have access to eternal
  127. 5:51reality, I have to be born in an eternal
  128. 5:53realm. I mean, in order for me to access
  129. 5:55an eternal realm, God had to eternalize
  130. 5:57me. I mean, he had to put me in the
  131. 5:59eternal, make me one with him. And give
  132. 6:01me his own nature, his mind, his heart.
  133. 6:06I mean, everything God has to reveal
  134. 6:09about himself he has already given us
  135. 6:12and it is in us, but it is in an eternal
  136. 6:15realm.
  137. 6:16I mean, what does that mean? That we are
  138. 6:18accustomed to knowing all things in the
  139. 6:20natural realm. we connect with people,
  140. 6:23we learn, we know how to learn, we have
  141. 6:26gone to school, everything that our
  142. 6:29body's nature possesses, knowledge is
  143. 6:32within it, right? I mean, if a baby is
  144. 6:34born,
  145. 6:36they are not born with a little bit of
  146. 6:38life, they are born with all of life.
  147. 6:41Life isn't being added to them; they
  148. 6:43have all of life. But what is it that
  149. 6:45grows in the baby?
  150. 6:47The expression of that life. At first
  151. 6:50they don't know how to speak, later they
  152. 6:51learn to speak. They don't know how to
  153. 6:53walk, later they learn to walk. They
  154. 6:55learn to eat all by themselves. And
  155. 6:56where is that knowledge? It is in their
  156. 6:58own nature.
  157. 6:59As soon as the baby is born, the mother
  158. 7:00puts them to her breast and they start
  159. 7:02to eat. And how do they know?
  160. 7:04I mean, how?
  161. 7:06Who taught a beaver to build dams?
  162. 7:09That is, that knowledge is in the nature
  163. 7:11.
  164. 7:12When God gives us His nature, within it
  165. 7:15is all the knowledge of the Christ who
  166. 7:18dwells in us.
  167. 7:20That is why
  168. 7:23the prophets Jeremiah and Ezekiel say,"
  169. 7:25No longer will anyone tell their brother
  170. 7:27, 'Know God.' "Because, where is the
  171. 7:29only one who reveals
  172. 7:31inside us? I mean, the only teacher is
  173. 7:34the Holy Spirit of God. So, I cannot
  174. 7:36show you Christ, I can bear witness to
  175. 7:38Him.
  176. 7:40But if the Holy Spirit does not
  177. 7:42intervene, what we hear just goes into a
  178. 7:44library in our minds.
  179. 7:47But that is not knowing Him, that is not
  180. 7:49seeing Him.
  181. 7:51And we need the illumination of the
  182. 7:54knowledge of the glory of God.
  183. 7:57Where? In the person, in the face of
  184. 7:59Jesus Christ.
  185. 8:01Listen, this is real. This is the
  186. 8:04reality of God.
  187. 8:05So it says that the eyes of our—where—
  188. 8:09should be enlightened, that is, the
  189. 8:12understanding of what mind.
  190. 8:16What does the apostle say now? What do
  191. 8:18we have? The mind of
  192. 8:21the mind we have now, which is the mind
  193. 8:23of Christ.
  194. 8:26Christ is the light that illuminates
  195. 8:28that mind, which produces an
  196. 8:29understanding, and we are transformed
  197. 8:31through the renewal of that
  198. 8:33understanding.
  199. 8:35Is that okay? Everything happens in an
  200. 8:39eternal and spiritual realm.
  201. 8:41And what Jesus said, you are no longer
  202. 8:44of this world, just as I am not of this
  203. 8:47world.
  204. 8:49You were born from above, you were born
  205. 8:51of the Spirit.
  206. 8:53I mean, the church is 100%spiritual, it
  207. 8:55is not of this world, it does not live
  208. 8:57in this world.
  209. 8:59The church is, I mean, a pilgrim in this
  210. 9:02world,
  211. 9:05it is an ambassador of heaven.
  212. 9:08We are bringing the reality of heaven to
  213. 9:10earth.
  214. 9:12Is that okay? That is the design we
  215. 9:15carry,
  216. 9:18but we will not see it or be able to act
  217. 9:21on it, unless the eyes of our
  218. 9:23understanding are enlightened so that we
  219. 9:25may access it.
  220. 9:27It may be that I am not seeing it yet, I
  221. 9:30still haven't had that enlightenment.
  222. 9:32That may happen in time, but the
  223. 9:34transformation is not waiting for time,
  224. 9:36it is waiting for faith.
  225. 9:39Through faith we have access to that
  226. 9:41reality.
  227. 9:42So, I want to talk to you about this
  228. 9:44because the true misfortune would be to
  229. 9:46have life and not know it, right?
  230. 9:51Eh, and believe me that what I am
  231. 9:54telling you is the concern at the
  232. 9:56gravitational axis of all apostolic
  233. 9:59concern.
  234. 10:03You have to understand that a life was
  235. 10:06given to you and a spirit was given to
  236. 10:09you.
  237. 10:11The Holy Spirit of God and the only
  238. 10:13function He has is to make known to you
  239. 10:15the life that was granted to you, right
  240. 10:17?
  241. 10:20So, uh
  242. 10:24as I know and even from the testimony of
  243. 10:27many of you,
  244. 10:30there are brothers among us who are just
  245. 10:33entering into the knowledge of the Lord
  246. 10:35and there are others who have been in
  247. 10:38this understanding for some time.
  248. 10:42So, if you allow me, I am even open to
  249. 10:44you raising your hands, there is no
  250. 10:46problem, although there will be a time
  251. 10:49for that, but it is important to create
  252. 10:51a table of grace where we can all eat of
  253. 10:53the bread of life. Is that okay?
  254. 10:56So, I want, I cannot go back too far,
  255. 10:59but I want to set some fundamental
  256. 11:01aspects for understanding.
  257. 11:05Just now Ernesto was saying so that we
  258. 11:08can understand how to grasp the reality
  259. 11:12in which we are living in Christ.
  260. 11:17The Old Testament is the announcement
  261. 11:22of a salvation, of a life that was going
  262. 11:24to be manifested
  263. 11:27in the gospels. That life became
  264. 11:30incarnate and dwelt among us and we saw
  265. 11:33that glory.
  266. 11:36In the apostolic letters that life dies
  267. 11:38, rises again and is imparted as life.
  268. 11:44And now the apostolic letters are
  269. 11:46bearing witness about that life that was
  270. 11:48imparted.
  271. 11:50This is the mystery that was hidden from
  272. 11:52eternal times, Christ in us.
  273. 11:55Is that okay? But now the head, which is
  274. 11:58Christ, is complete.
  275. 11:59But what needs to be completed?
  276. 12:01The body. In other words, Christ must be
  277. 12:04formed in where?
  278. 12:05In us.
  279. 12:09The body has to be, it is in full, full
  280. 12:12formation.
  281. 12:14Until when?
  282. 12:16Until the full manifestation of that man
  283. 12:18.
  284. 12:20Is that okay?
  285. 12:22And what is the Apocalypse?
  286. 12:24It is the book of the revelation of the
  287. 12:26person of Jesus Christ.
  288. 12:27And what does it speak of? Of things
  289. 12:29that are going to happen. It is not
  290. 12:31speaking of the revelation of the person
  291. 12:33of Jesus Christ. What does that mean?
  292. 12:37It is speaking of the full manifestation
  293. 12:39of that which began in His resurrection
  294. 12:42.
  295. 12:43It began as a formation and now it is
  296. 12:45revealing.
  297. 12:47You will see that all the figures that
  298. 12:49are in Revelation are the same figures
  299. 12:51that are in the Old Testament, only one
  300. 12:53was an announcement and this one is in
  301. 12:55its full manifestation.
  302. 12:58Amen.
  303. 13:00That is the order.
  304. 13:02So, the fact that there are figures,
  305. 13:05types, and shadows in the Old Testament
  306. 13:09allows us to be able to understand
  307. 13:12truths that can only be revealed by the
  308. 13:16Holy Spirit. This means that what is in
  309. 13:19the apostolic letters is completely
  310. 13:21foreign, that is, it is unattainable to
  311. 13:24the natural mind.
  312. 13:26That is why we fill ourselves with
  313. 13:29imaginations, because only, that is,
  314. 13:31what the apostle Paul says," No one knew
  315. 13:33the things of God except by the Spirit
  316. 13:36of God. "How many? No one.
  317. 13:40So, we need the work of the Spirit to be
  318. 13:43able to see the reality that the
  319. 13:45apostles are revealing.
  320. 13:48Is that okay?
  321. 13:50So, that is irreplaceable, but the
  322. 13:53announcement is in the form of a figure
  323. 13:56, right?
  324. 13:57I mean, if I were to put on my cell
  325. 14:01phone a photo of Ernesto and ask," Who
  326. 14:05is this? "What would you tell me?
  327. 14:09But it is not Ernesto. Ernesto is over
  328. 14:11there.
  329. 14:12I mean, it is completely identifiable.
  330. 14:15You can identify him, it is clear, but
  331. 14:17it is a photo.
  332. 14:19We can all clearly identify Christ in
  333. 14:21the Old Testament, but it is not him.
  334. 14:24It is a photo that bears witness
  335. 14:28to Christ.
  336. 14:31I mean, I can have all the information
  337. 14:33about him, but we are no longer learning
  338. 14:35about Christ, we are learning Christ.
  339. 14:39We learn a person. That is nature.
  340. 14:42And God governs nature.
  341. 14:46It is not a law written in stone, it is
  342. 14:49not a law written on paper, it is a law
  343. 14:52of the spirit of life.
  344. 14:54It is a person.
  345. 14:57So there we proceed by the spirit.
  346. 15:00But I want to talk to you about our
  347. 15:03salvation and I want to bring it in the
  348. 15:06form of figures, so that we can
  349. 15:08understand it better and understand the
  350. 15:11revelation about it.
  351. 15:16The story of the exodus is a perfect
  352. 15:20figure of our salvation.
  353. 15:23If we understand this, we will
  354. 15:25understand many questions that are asked
  355. 15:27about salvation.
  356. 15:29and the life that we carry.
  357. 15:31So if you allow me, I passed you a chart
  358. 15:34, let's see if it's around there.
  359. 15:38There it is. Look, you are going to
  360. 15:40follow me.
  361. 15:43The story of our salvation in the exodus
  362. 15:46, that is how God sees it.
  363. 15:50You will be able to understand something
  364. 15:52that is very, very important.
  365. 15:55The Lord says to him," Call Moses. "and
  366. 15:58he says to him,
  367. 16:03Well, he listens, I mean, remember the
  368. 16:06story, I mean, Israel was in slavery in
  369. 16:09Egypt and God hears the cry and says," I
  370. 16:12have heard the cry of my people.
  371. 16:16"" And he tells him, he calls Moses and
  372. 16:19says to him, listen, in Exodus 3:10 it
  373. 16:21says, "Come,
  374. 16:25therefore, now and I will send you to
  375. 16:27Pharaoh."
  376. 16:29First point, that you may bring my
  377. 16:31people out of Egypt.
  378. 16:33First point, that you may bring them out
  379. 16:36, alright?
  380. 16:38I mean, he didn't send him to negotiate
  381. 16:40the terms.
  382. 16:43I mean, he didn't send him to say, "
  383. 16:46Look, go talk to Pharaoh so he improves
  384. 16:49their quality of work, of pay, of
  385. 16:51schedules."
  386. 16:54He didn't come to bring any solution to
  387. 16:57this world, he came to bring judgment to
  388. 17:00this world, which is completely the
  389. 17:02opposite.
  390. 17:05Chapter 4, verse 22 says, "You shall say
  391. 17:08to Pharaoh, thus says the Lord, Israel
  392. 17:11is my son.
  393. 17:14Israel is my firstborn." Who is Israel?
  394. 17:18Look, this is key.
  395. 17:19First, knowing that whenever God is
  396. 17:21talking about the Israel of the Bible,
  397. 17:23he is always talking about his son.
  398. 17:25And who is his son today?
  399. 17:27It is his church.
  400. 17:29I mean, what came up from under the
  401. 17:31earth in his resurrection was a
  402. 17:33corporate son, where he is the head and
  403. 17:36we are the body.
  404. 17:39Therefore, when God is speaking in this
  405. 17:42story, when God speaks of his son, who
  406. 17:44is he talking about?
  407. 17:47When he speaks of Israel, who is he
  408. 17:48talking about?
  409. 17:49He is talking about us. Amen.
  410. 17:53>> God has only one son. Only one son. God
  411. 17:56has his only begotten son.
  412. 18:00One.
  413. 18:02But so that we could be saved, he had to
  414. 18:04place us in the son.
  415. 18:06Do you remember the story of Jacob and
  416. 18:10Esau?
  417. 18:13The only one who could receive the
  418. 18:14blessing was the firstborn.
  419. 18:17There is a story of deception there,
  420. 18:20right?
  421. 18:21Jacob disguises himself as the firstborn
  422. 18:26and deceives his father, and the father
  423. 18:28gives him his blessing. The figure of
  424. 18:30Jacob
  425. 18:33speaks of us.
  426. 18:35We did not deserve the blessing, we were
  427. 18:39not the firstborn, but we put on the
  428. 18:42firstborn's garment to receive the
  429. 18:45Father's blessing.
  430. 18:48And now in Christ we have been blessed
  431. 18:49with every spiritual blessing. And now
  432. 18:52the only begotten, out of love, becomes
  433. 18:55the firstborn among many brothers.
  434. 18:59That is why, since we are in the
  435. 19:01firstborn, we are the assembly of the
  436. 19:03firstborn, as the author of Hebrews says
  437. 19:05.
  438. 19:08Amen.
  439. 19:09So, Israel is my son, he is my firstborn
  440. 19:13.
  441. 19:14Amen.
  442. 19:17And he says this,
  443. 19:20"And I have told you, let my son go that
  444. 19:23he may serve me."
  445. 19:24All right. First point,
  446. 19:29uh,
  447. 19:31how many serve God?
  448. 19:36Listen, always try or let us try, let us
  449. 19:41always try to identify which library we
  450. 19:46are looking in, uh, because sometimes
  451. 19:50the answer is exactly before our eyes.
  452. 19:57We read a verse and I ask what the verse
  453. 19:59says and the brethren answer me
  454. 20:00something else.
  455. 20:05We are reading it, but an image
  456. 20:07immediately triggers from concepts we
  457. 20:10have learned that have been installed.
  458. 20:14It is as if we pressed a button.
  459. 20:16Only one serves. Who brings out my son?
  460. 20:19What for do I
  461. 20:21>> Who serves?
  462. 20:23The Son. Nothing else.
  463. 20:25It means, and what you are saying
  464. 20:28clearly, notice that the only one who
  465. 20:32builds the house is Him.
  466. 20:35And if it is not so, in vain do all the
  467. 20:38builders labor.
  468. 20:40No one can serve God if it is not the
  469. 20:42Son.
  470. 20:46No one can give anything to God if it is
  471. 20:48not the Son.
  472. 20:50In other words, service does not proceed
  473. 20:52from us.
  474. 20:54It proceeds from Him.
  475. 20:56All right? I mean, listen, service is
  476. 20:59something that proceeds from Him and
  477. 21:02returns to Him.
  478. 21:04What is praise? Praise is the fragrant
  479. 21:07aroma of Christ. That's what the
  480. 21:09apostles say, right? I always say this
  481. 21:12because Ernesto and I are from the
  482. 21:14generation that said pastors had to
  483. 21:17smell like sheep, remember?
  484. 21:19In a sense, it's diabolical, truly, it's
  485. 21:22ignorance.
  486. 21:24But what should pastors smell like?
  487. 21:28Like Christ. And the sheep.
  488. 21:31Of course.
  489. 21:32The treasure of the gospel is not us, it
  490. 21:34is Christ. That is why He placed us in
  491. 21:36the Son.
  492. 21:37Amen.
  493. 21:38That is what we are.
  494. 21:40It means that a power operates in us to
  495. 21:42express the only thing that serves God.
  496. 21:45It is the Son who dwells in us, who
  497. 21:49produces a working, who produces a
  498. 21:52building up.
  499. 21:54and who produces a desire for the
  500. 21:56Father's will, for God's eternal purpose
  501. 21:59.
  502. 22:01That is why He in us is the expression
  503. 22:03of God's complete purpose
  504. 22:07in His own substance, producing the
  505. 22:09building up, producing the working, and
  506. 22:11producing the desire for that working.
  507. 22:15It becomes our delight.
  508. 22:18All right? What is worship?
  509. 22:21Jesus said, "This, this is the hour.
  510. 22:23It is now that true worshipers will
  511. 22:25worship the Father in spirit and in
  512. 22:27truth. Why? Because the only one who
  513. 22:29worships, what is He?
  514. 22:31He is.
  515. 22:33In other words, worship proceeds from
  516. 22:35God and returns to Him.
  517. 22:38That is why it is grace. Amen.
  518. 22:41In other words, what God is demanding of
  519. 22:44us is exactly what He previously granted
  520. 22:46us.
  521. 22:48That is why it is so important to be
  522. 22:50able to understand this, because
  523. 22:52otherwise one is bringing to God
  524. 22:53something of the nature that He abhors.
  525. 22:58Do you understand me? One wants to bring
  526. 23:01something from their own heart, from
  527. 23:04their own will, to God, and they bring
  528. 23:07it from a nature that God abhors.
  529. 23:11It’s like someone taking a grenade,
  530. 23:13pulling the pin, and throwing it, and
  531. 23:15your dog goes and brings it back to you
  532. 23:18.
  533. 23:19No, no, no. You throw it again, and he
  534. 23:20goes and brings it back to you.
  535. 23:22In other words, we are bringing
  536. 23:24something to God that God already took
  537. 23:27to judgment, that God already removed on
  538. 23:30the cross.
  539. 23:32Now God has no relationship with the
  540. 23:35flesh, no relationship with the natural
  541. 23:38man; He only has communion with the Son
  542. 23:41.
  543. 23:42Amen. So God hears the cry of His people
  544. 23:45,
  545. 23:46and they say," Well, find a lamb, "a
  546. 23:49figure of whom?
  547. 23:50Of Christ.
  548. 23:52And they are going to choose it.
  549. 23:54It must be perfect, without blemish,
  550. 23:57chosen at a specific time, sacrificed at
  551. 23:59a specific time.
  552. 24:02With its blood, they are to paint the
  553. 24:04lintel and the doorposts of a door. Who
  554. 24:07is that door?
  555. 24:09Christ opens a door back to the Father,
  556. 24:14a perpetual door.
  557. 24:16How many of you have sung saying" let
  558. 24:19the heavens open "?
  559. 24:22Well, heaven opened 2,000 years ago. For
  560. 24:24God, in God’s eternity, He opened it.
  561. 24:26When that door appeared, and He is the
  562. 24:29door, heaven opened. For everyone who
  563. 24:31wants to go to Him, He is the way back
  564. 24:33to the Father.
  565. 24:35It is Christ, it is the return home,
  566. 24:37beloved. That is the reality. Open a
  567. 24:40door. He is that door. It had to be
  568. 24:42painted in blood.
  569. 24:44Whose blood does that speak of?
  570. 24:46Of Christ's.
  571. 24:48And the family had to enter through that
  572. 24:50door.
  573. 24:51Is that okay?
  574. 24:53And when they entered, when they entered
  575. 24:55through that door, salvation was already
  576. 24:57consummated.
  577. 24:59Death could no longer touch them.
  578. 25:02Is that okay?
  579. 25:04But there is a detail that is
  580. 25:06fundamental in this.
  581. 25:08All the firstborn died in Israel. How
  582. 25:11many?
  583. 25:12>> All of them.
  584. 25:14Only, when they passed by and saw a door
  585. 25:17painted in blood, it said," Here a
  586. 25:19firstborn died. "There was a substitute
  587. 25:22.
  588. 25:23Therefore, the one who was inside the
  589. 25:24door did not die. Why? Because already
  590. 25:27someone, a firstborn, had died in his
  591. 25:29place.
  592. 25:31Amen.
  593. 25:32In other words, the cross has a
  594. 25:34substitutionary meaning.
  595. 25:37Christ died for us.
  596. 25:40But there was something else to do:
  597. 25:42inside the house, they had to eat of the
  598. 25:45lamb.
  599. 25:47And that speaks
  600. 25:50of the inclusive meaning of the cross.
  601. 25:53What does that mean? They had to
  602. 25:55participate in his death.
  603. 25:58That is why the Lord says," He who eats
  604. 26:00my body and drinks my blood has
  605. 26:02communion with me.
  606. 26:04"That is to say, it becomes one, it has
  607. 26:07a common union.
  608. 26:10What happens in Christ is that it is now
  609. 26:14one life, one mind, one purpose, one
  610. 26:18heart, one life.
  611. 26:22They were joined in his death.
  612. 26:24And Paul says, see that we died together
  613. 26:27with him.
  614. 26:29That is, we are dead to the old nature
  615. 26:33and alive in Christ Jesus.
  616. 26:36Amen.
  617. 26:38So, that is understood, right?
  618. 26:40That is, it means it is not that he died
  619. 26:43and set us aside so that we could live,
  620. 26:46but rather that when he comes to death,
  621. 26:49when he faces death, he places us in him
  622. 26:52.
  623. 26:54And when he dies, we die together with
  624. 26:57him. So that when he rose, we rose
  625. 27:00together with him.
  626. 27:02I mean, what does that mean?
  627. 27:05We do not die our death, we die his
  628. 27:09death, united, being one with him.
  629. 27:14We die his death for today, so that
  630. 27:16today Christ may be our life.
  631. 27:19Therefore, there is no longer a" me "
  632. 27:21and Christ.
  633. 27:23Not anymore. Now it is one life, it is
  634. 27:25Christ who is our life.
  635. 27:30Amen. Look, this changes everything,
  636. 27:33because we cannot measure
  637. 27:37the magnitude of everything that
  638. 27:39happened on that cross and of everything
  639. 27:41that our union with Christ means.
  640. 27:45That is why we need the glorious
  641. 27:47intervention of the Spirit of God to be
  642. 27:49able to see, because all the time, until
  643. 27:52the Lord comes to get us, we will be
  644. 27:54dismantling imaginations, uh, because
  645. 27:57everything we have not seen, we imagine
  646. 27:59.
  647. 28:01So, our mind, our soul is a factory of
  648. 28:05imaginations, because it carries a
  649. 28:09permanent desire. You get up in the
  650. 28:12morning and you are already dealing with
  651. 28:14your desires, what I want to do, what I
  652. 28:15do not want to do, what I like, what I
  653. 28:17do not like.
  654. 28:19We face responsibilities, but there are
  655. 28:21things and we start to define ourselves
  656. 28:24by what we feel and we live so much in
  657. 28:26the areas of emotions that we begin to
  658. 28:28think that we are what we feel, but our
  659. 28:30senses were led astray.
  660. 28:33The natural man has all his senses
  661. 28:35astray from sincere faithfulness to
  662. 28:37Christ, from the will of God, from the
  663. 28:39government of God,
  664. 28:42but everything all the time tries to
  665. 28:44define us.
  666. 28:46And the gospel did not come to deal with
  667. 28:48what we feel, but it came to deliver us
  668. 28:51from the deception that the senses
  669. 28:53produce before the truth.
  670. 28:56We are not what we feel; we are who we
  671. 28:59truly are in Christ, what God says we
  672. 29:02are in Him.
  673. 29:05Therefore, who we are in Him must be
  674. 29:08revealed to us.
  675. 29:11We must gain our identity in our reality
  676. 29:14, in that which is only real to God.
  677. 29:19Hm.
  678. 29:21So, how did God leave us completely
  679. 29:23defined on that cross?
  680. 29:26This is also extremely important because
  681. 29:29either we are shaped by our
  682. 29:31circumstances or by the cross, or we
  683. 29:33understand that the cross left us
  684. 29:36completely defined in Him.
  685. 29:39We need to go to the foot of the cross
  686. 29:42to gain our identity in Christ, because
  687. 29:45He is now our life.
  688. 29:47Amen.
  689. 29:48Uh,
  690. 29:51well, if you could show the graphic for
  691. 29:52a moment, it says, uh,
  692. 29:56well, it's the image of Egypt, the image
  693. 30:01of death, of slavery, of a tyrannical
  694. 30:06king, of work without rest, uh,
  695. 30:12of fear, of control.
  696. 30:15Now they entered through that door, they
  697. 30:18participated in the death of the lamb,
  698. 30:21and now they pass in His resurrection
  699. 30:23through the Red Sea,
  700. 30:27entering into what God calls life.
  701. 30:30The desert is life. Now, the point is
  702. 30:34this.
  703. 30:36When Israel is in the desert, you are
  704. 30:39following me, right?
  705. 30:42Israel is in the desert, but Egypt is no
  706. 30:44longer there. Egypt died in the Red Sea
  707. 30:47.
  708. 30:47Pharaoh is no longer there; he is gone.
  709. 30:50But where was Egypt?
  710. 30:53>> In the heart of Israel.
  711. 30:55Listen, because this is talking about us
  712. 30:57. Do you understand that?
  713. 31:01It means Israel was no longer in Egypt,
  714. 31:04but their heart was still configured to
  715. 31:07Egypt.
  716. 31:09And then something tremendous happens.
  717. 31:12Moses goes up the mountain, takes too
  718. 31:14long to come down, and Israel makes a
  719. 31:17golden calf.
  720. 31:20But listen, it's not talking about
  721. 31:22another God. It doesn't say it was
  722. 31:23another God. For them, that calf was the
  723. 31:26Lord of hosts.
  724. 31:29In other words, they said," This is the
  725. 31:30God who brought us out of the slavery of
  726. 31:32Egypt. "What was the problem Israel had
  727. 31:34?
  728. 31:35They were saved.
  729. 31:38They already had life, but they didn't
  730. 31:41know
  731. 31:43their salvation. They didn't know the
  732. 31:45God who had brought them out of death
  733. 31:47and the slavery of sin.
  734. 31:49So what they didn't know, what did they
  735. 31:51do? They imagined it.
  736. 31:53And what did they bring? The images of
  737. 31:55the gods of Egypt,
  738. 31:58and they created a golden calf.
  739. 32:00Listen, this is key. Why is it key?
  740. 32:05Because if we are not knowing the life
  741. 32:07that has already been granted to us,
  742. 32:09what do we have in our minds?
  743. 32:13A golden calf.
  744. 32:15We are imagining God because we don't
  745. 32:18know God by reading the Bible.
  746. 32:21The only one who reveals the Son is the
  747. 32:23Spirit of God. No one knows the things
  748. 32:25of God except by the Spirit of God.
  749. 32:27The scriptures bear witness to that life
  750. 32:30. Is that okay?
  751. 32:32So we explained, Jesus takes 40 days
  752. 32:35between the resurrection and the
  753. 32:37ascension.
  754. 32:40And it says he did it for two reasons.
  755. 32:43In those 40 days, he stayed to speak to
  756. 32:44them about the kingdom of God. He told
  757. 32:46them," Look, the kingdom of God is not a
  758. 32:48bunch of people believing in the same
  759. 32:49thing. It is me.
  760. 32:51The kingdom of God is me. I am going to
  761. 32:52leave and I am going to impart myself as
  762. 32:55life and I will dwell in you and you in
  763. 32:57me.
  764. 32:58I am going to be the head. And the head
  765. 33:00is a state of government, it is a
  766. 33:02kingdom that governs the multiple
  767. 33:04members.
  768. 33:05The kingdom of God is Christ as the head
  769. 33:08, governing the whole body.
  770. 33:11And the second reason why he stays 40
  771. 33:14days before the ascension, I am going to
  772. 33:16read it to you so you have it.
  773. 33:20He says it this way.
  774. 33:22In Luke 24:44 it says, "And he said to
  775. 33:24them, these are the words which I spoke
  776. 33:26to you while I was still with you,
  777. 33:32that everything written about me must be
  778. 33:35fulfilled."
  779. 33:36Where?
  780. 33:40In the law of Moses, in the prophets,
  781. 33:42and in the psalms. "
  782. 33:47Verse 45 says," Then he opened their
  783. 33:50understanding, that they might
  784. 33:52comprehend the scriptures.
  785. 33:57He was saying, look, Moses never spoke
  786. 33:59of anything other than me.
  787. 34:02The prophets never spoke of anything
  788. 34:04other than me.
  789. 34:08The psalms never spoke of anything other
  790. 34:09than me.
  791. 34:11All the scriptures bear witness of me.
  792. 34:17And he did not ascend until they
  793. 34:20understood what the function of the
  794. 34:22Scriptures was. It was to bear witness
  795. 34:25of him.
  796. 34:26So, it means the scriptures do not teach
  797. 34:29us how to live.
  798. 34:31The only one who teaches us, he says, "
  799. 34:33He will glorify me, for he will take of
  800. 34:35what is mine and declare it to you. He
  801. 34:38will teach you all the things that I
  802. 34:39have commanded you. In other words, the
  803. 34:42Spirit that dwells in us reveals to us
  804. 34:44the Son, the nature that possesses all
  805. 34:47knowledge. In other words, the
  806. 34:49Scriptures are bearing witness to whom?
  807. 34:51To the Christ who dwells in us.
  808. 34:54And then, and what do they say? What do
  809. 34:56the apostles say about the scriptures?
  810. 34:58What are the scriptures for? For
  811. 35:00correction, for reproof, to destroy
  812. 35:03injustice.
  813. 35:04So that the Christ who dwells in us, who
  814. 35:06is the perfect man, may be formed.
  815. 35:10Is that okay?
  816. 35:12So,
  817. 35:14what does it mean? If I haven't seen
  818. 35:16Christ,
  819. 35:21the one of whom the Scriptures testify,
  820. 35:23when I read the Scriptures I am reading
  821. 35:24true words,
  822. 35:28but if I didn't see Christ, I am filling
  823. 35:29them with imagination. I read true words
  824. 35:32, but I am loading them with my own
  825. 35:35content, with my own natural
  826. 35:37understanding.
  827. 35:41I am filling them with imagination. In
  828. 35:42other words, I am reading the Scripture
  829. 35:45, but in reality, I am looking at a
  830. 35:47golden calf.
  831. 35:51Unless the Spirit of God reveals to me
  832. 35:53the one of whom the Scriptures testify.
  833. 35:56Amen. Is that understood?
  834. 36:00So, any person who is not seeing Christ
  835. 36:03but is teaching the Scriptures,
  836. 36:09if he hasn't seen Christ, he is speaking
  837. 36:12from his own imaginations.
  838. 36:16So, every time God has to instill truth
  839. 36:18, He has to uninstall.
  840. 36:22And believe me, there is a power, a—
  841. 36:25everything that does not function
  842. 36:28organically in the church functions in
  843. 36:31the form of a pyramidal government.
  844. 36:35What is pyramidal government? It is,
  845. 36:37let's say, the Babylonian government. It
  846. 36:40is the Babylonian model. What does that
  847. 36:41mean?
  848. 36:42It is man trying to please God by his
  849. 36:46own means.
  850. 36:49It is man striving to do what God wants
  851. 36:53.
  852. 36:56Therefore, since there is a man who now
  853. 36:59has merit because he is striving to be
  854. 37:02good, obedient, right? The merit is in
  855. 37:05the person, right? And from there, the
  856. 37:08enlightened ones, the untouchables, are
  857. 37:11born, isn't that true? Those who receive
  858. 37:14the voice of God to bring it down to the
  859. 37:16people.
  860. 37:19In other words, at the tip of that
  861. 37:21pyramid there is a man, there is a
  862. 37:23ministry, there is a denomination, there
  863. 37:25is whatever,
  864. 37:27but the church is not a pyramid, it is a
  865. 37:29body,
  866. 37:31it is organic life.
  867. 37:35What does that mean? That everything
  868. 37:37that does not produce life, man
  869. 37:39substitutes with rules.
  870. 37:41Is that understood or not?
  871. 37:44I mean, because man needs to know what
  872. 37:48to do, but it’s not a" what, "it is a"
  873. 37:52who. "Do you understand?
  874. 37:55Paul says," Who will deliver me? He does
  875. 37:57not say, "What will deliver me or what
  876. 37:58do I have to do to deliver myself from
  877. 38:00this body of death? He says," Who will
  878. 38:02deliver me from this body of death? So
  879. 38:04there we see, look, there we see the
  880. 38:08sequence of Romans 7, 8, and 9, right?
  881. 38:13Romans 7 is a man who is in Christ, but
  882. 38:15wants to act
  883. 38:19by his own means saying: "I want to do
  884. 38:21this for God, and I realize that what I
  885. 38:24want to do, I do not do; and what I do
  886. 38:27not want to do, that I do, and I realize
  887. 38:30there is a law: the law of sin that
  888. 38:32dwells in me."
  889. 38:37In other words, there is a man who longs
  890. 38:39for the will of God, who desires the
  891. 38:41will of God.
  892. 38:43But he is operating in the wrong nature
  893. 38:45, which cannot.
  894. 38:48Romans 8, what does it say?
  895. 38:51That the Lord set us free from the law
  896. 38:54of sin and introduced us into a nature
  897. 38:56in which the law of the spirit of life
  898. 38:59operates.
  899. 39:03Where is the entire fulfillment of God's
  900. 39:05will and purpose found?
  901. 39:08And what does Romans 9 say?
  902. 39:11Listen, it says, look, this is the
  903. 39:13mystery that was hidden from eternal
  904. 39:15times, isn't it? And it is revealed to
  905. 39:17us. This is God's eternal purpose,
  906. 39:21that Christ, Christ is the firstborn
  907. 39:24among many brothers, and the goal is for
  908. 39:28Christ to be formed in the saints.
  909. 39:32Then we can understand
  910. 39:36that what does not proceed from life,
  911. 39:39someone will replace; man will replace
  912. 39:41it with laws. For example, if we wanted
  913. 39:44to organize, suppose a church, a
  914. 39:47congregation, one says, "Hey, we have
  915. 39:51many things to set in order, right?"
  916. 39:56Well, but if we create a structure of
  917. 40:00order, it is a structure that does not
  918. 40:03proceed from life, it proceeds from us.
  919. 40:08We are organizing ourselves, we say, "
  920. 40:10Well, let's appoint area leaders," and
  921. 40:12anyone, even if they haven't been born
  922. 40:14again, if you give them a task and they
  923. 40:16have good will, they will do it, but it
  924. 40:18does not proceed from life; it is our
  925. 40:20organization.
  926. 40:23Now,
  927. 40:25God is a God of order, isn't He?
  928. 40:29Meaning, as Christ grows, order grows,
  929. 40:34but that order proceeds from life.
  930. 40:37It is organic,
  931. 40:41but if a person is functioning in a
  932. 40:44disorganized way,
  933. 40:48if that order is not proceeding from
  934. 40:50life, someone will want to order your
  935. 40:51life; someone will have to tell you or
  936. 40:53someone will tell you how you must act.
  937. 41:00If, if the life of Christ in us does not
  938. 41:02produce decorum, meaning that what is
  939. 41:05seen externally is the reflection of
  940. 41:08what occurred internally,
  941. 41:12if God does not produce decorum in your
  942. 41:14life, someone will tell you how you have
  943. 41:16to dress, because the church, the house
  944. 41:18of God, no, but
  945. 41:21order, I mean, look, for example, the
  946. 41:23skeleton is a structure. The problem is
  947. 41:26not the structure. The problem is for
  948. 41:28the structure to be organic, to proceed
  949. 41:30from life. The skeleton in man is a
  950. 41:32structure, but it is organic.
  951. 41:36In other words, take a baby's skull: as
  952. 41:39the baby grows, the brain grows, the
  953. 41:41skull grows because it has life.
  954. 41:46But if you were to put a plastic skull
  955. 41:49on a baby, as the baby grows, what
  956. 41:51happens?
  957. 41:52It kills him.
  958. 41:55Every structure attacks life; any human
  959. 41:59structure lacks good will, but does not
  960. 42:02proceed from life.
  961. 42:08That is why it is irreplaceable to
  962. 42:10understand that Christ must be formed in
  963. 42:13the saints, because order proceeds from
  964. 42:15life, because decorum, the formation of
  965. 42:18His son, expresses the son.
  966. 42:21Amen.
  967. 42:22Oh, God.
  968. 42:27Now,
  969. 42:30now we are, please put up the graphic
  970. 42:32for me.
  971. 42:34Uh, now that we crossed the Red Sea and
  972. 42:37now Israel is in the desert, the problem
  973. 42:40with Israel is that Egypt is in their
  974. 42:43heart.
  975. 42:45They are indeed longing for the food of
  976. 42:49Egypt.
  977. 42:50I mean, why are they in the desert?
  978. 42:54Nothing.
  979. 42:57Now one asks,
  980. 43:00why didn't God bring the people of
  981. 43:03Israel directly into the promised land?
  982. 43:08Because God had to take Egypt out of
  983. 43:10their heart, because Egypt cannot enter
  984. 43:12the promised land.
  985. 43:15In other words, the cross operated.
  986. 43:18They take the graphic away, but it's a
  987. 43:21thing—Ah, because they are broadcasting
  988. 43:24.
  989. 43:25That might be why. Well, the cross
  990. 43:27operates, there you have it.
  991. 43:30The cross at the Red Sea and the cross
  992. 43:31at the Jordan River.
  993. 43:33The cross at the Red Sea is taking us
  994. 43:35from death to life.
  995. 43:38Is that okay?
  996. 43:40That is the tetelestai.
  997. 43:44I mean, the work is complete, but once
  998. 43:48they cross the the the Red Sea, the
  999. 43:51apostles no longer use the word
  1000. 43:54tetelestai, they use a word that is from
  1001. 43:58the family of tetelestai, which is
  1002. 44:01teleion, which is the formation of
  1003. 44:05Christ to the measure of the perfect man
  1004. 44:08.
  1005. 44:10Teleion.
  1006. 44:12Right? In other words,
  1007. 44:16the power that operates in us now is the
  1008. 44:19cross that we see in the Jordan River,
  1009. 44:22which is trying every day to take Egypt
  1010. 44:25out of our heart to form Christ, to
  1011. 44:27enter the promised land to the full
  1012. 44:30knowledge of the life that was granted
  1013. 44:33to us when we were transferred from
  1014. 44:35death to life.
  1015. 44:38Is that understood?
  1016. 44:41But when Paul says, "I am crucified with
  1017. 44:44Christ, so that it is no longer I who
  1018. 44:47live, but Christ who lives in me," Paul
  1019. 44:50is not saying, I am crucified to obtain
  1020. 44:53life,
  1021. 44:55but so that the life of Christ may be
  1022. 44:57manifested in me. "In other words, what
  1023. 45:00does that mean?
  1024. 45:02The life of the crucified one was
  1025. 45:04already in Paul.
  1026. 45:07It is the seed. In other words, it was
  1027. 45:09born.
  1028. 45:10There was a birth. There is a seed. The
  1029. 45:12seed is there, the life is in the seed.
  1030. 45:15That is fine.
  1031. 45:18But if that seed does not fall into the
  1032. 45:20ground, life cannot be manifested.
  1033. 45:24Is that okay? I mean, what does that
  1034. 45:26mean? Suppose you take one—there are
  1035. 45:28seeds that can last for thousands of
  1036. 45:29years
  1037. 45:32in the form of a seed, and if you put it
  1038. 45:34in the ground, life is manifested,
  1039. 45:37but the life is there, meaning the life
  1040. 45:39was already in the seed, right?
  1041. 45:42In other words, life comes to the soil
  1042. 45:44of our soul in the form of a seed.
  1043. 45:48The life of the spirit, where Christ
  1044. 45:50joined with us in the spirit and now
  1045. 45:52that reality must be formed in our soul
  1046. 45:54. Is that okay?
  1047. 45:56But it comes in the form of a seed, and
  1048. 45:58there is a power, which is the power of
  1049. 46:00His resurrection, operating within us.
  1050. 46:05For what purpose?
  1051. 46:06Paul says," I have counted all things as
  1052. 46:08loss, everything as rubbish; I have lost
  1053. 46:10everything in order to know Him. "" To
  1054. 46:12know what? Christ as life, as our
  1055. 46:15salvation. "To enter into full knowledge
  1056. 46:19.
  1057. 46:23To know Him and what else? And to know
  1058. 46:25the power of His resurrection, that is,
  1059. 46:27the power that operates in me so that it
  1060. 46:29is no longer I, but Christ in me.
  1061. 46:33And the power of the resurrection, what
  1062. 46:34does it produce in me?
  1063. 46:36The fellowship of His sufferings. What
  1064. 46:38else?
  1065. 46:41Being then conformed to Him in His death
  1066. 46:44; where death operates, life operates.
  1067. 46:48Amen.
  1068. 46:50>> So, what does that seed mean?
  1069. 46:53Suppose you meet someone in the form of
  1070. 46:57a seed, use your imagination,
  1071. 47:02and you go away and come back 15 years
  1072. 47:04later and say," I've come to see
  1073. 47:06so-and-so. "" You know him as a seed,
  1074. 47:09right? "And now you come and there is a
  1075. 47:13giant tree.
  1076. 47:14You say," Who is this?
  1077. 47:16"" It is the same life, the same person
  1078. 47:19.
  1079. 47:21"But when I left, he was just a little
  1080. 47:23seed, and yes, it is the same life, only
  1081. 47:26it was transformed.
  1082. 47:29It is the glorification of that seed.
  1083. 47:32And now in that tree there is fruit.
  1084. 47:35And in the fruit, what is there?
  1085. 47:37Seeds.
  1086. 47:38What was the first seed that fell into
  1087. 47:40the ground?
  1088. 47:41Jesus, Jesus of Nazareth.
  1089. 47:47Today, that seed grew, it bore more
  1090. 47:49fruit, that fruit became other seeds
  1091. 47:50that fell into the ground and it reaches
  1092. 47:52us.
  1093. 47:54The same life that operated in Christ,
  1094. 47:56in Jesus as the seed, is the same life
  1095. 47:58that we carry today.
  1096. 48:02And each one of us is that seed that
  1097. 48:04must fall into the ground for
  1098. 48:05multiplication.
  1099. 48:09Yes, you know it, right?
  1100. 48:11Well,
  1101. 48:12>> I, I am not, believe me, all my life I
  1102. 48:15asked God
  1103. 48:18not to let me do evangelical tourism,
  1104. 48:20going from conference to conference.
  1105. 48:22This is not life, beloved.
  1106. 48:26We are not people sitting here just
  1107. 48:28trying to enjoy a revelation.
  1108. 48:31We are eating Christ.
  1109. 48:36>> It's not curiosity; it is hunger for the
  1110. 48:38bread of life.
  1111. 48:41We are talking about life, right?
  1112. 48:43So, know this.
  1113. 48:46Why doesn't one see a transformation in
  1114. 48:50their life?
  1115. 48:52It is not falling to the ground.
  1116. 48:55And if it doesn't fall to the ground,
  1117. 48:57there will be no transformation.
  1118. 49:01I will not participate in the glory of
  1119. 49:04God.
  1120. 49:06In this is my Father glorified.
  1121. 49:09I in him and he in me. That I bear much
  1122. 49:12fruit.
  1123. 49:14That is why my Father loves me, because
  1124. 49:15I lay down my life for the sheep. He had
  1125. 49:17to fall to the ground. For this I came.
  1126. 49:23And he takes up the cross for the joy
  1127. 49:25set before him. What was it?
  1128. 49:28The glorification of that seed, the
  1129. 49:30glory of the Father, the people the
  1130. 49:33Father saw in his own son before
  1131. 49:35everything was created.
  1132. 49:40Is that okay?
  1133. 49:44So look at what happens.
  1134. 49:46There is Israel in the, in the
  1135. 49:48wilderness, and he says," We must move
  1136. 49:50to the promised land, but
  1137. 49:55we still long for the things of Egypt. "
  1138. 49:57So they wanted to go to the promised
  1139. 49:58land, but at the same time." And what
  1140. 50:01they could do in months, they took 40
  1141. 50:03years to do.
  1142. 50:05Listen, because he is talking about us.
  1143. 50:08Israel said terrible things, like for
  1144. 50:10example, "If only we had died in Egypt.
  1145. 50:12"
  1146. 50:14Terrible. And one of the things that is
  1147. 50:17most important is that in the wilderness
  1148. 50:20there is nothing.
  1149. 50:23Therefore, what were they going to eat?
  1150. 50:25God had to provide food.
  1151. 50:29And there the manna appeared, bread that
  1152. 50:32descended from heaven.
  1153. 50:35But that bread was a figure of whom?
  1154. 50:38He said, "I am the true bread that
  1155. 50:39descended from heaven. Your fathers ate
  1156. 50:41that manna in the wilderness, but they
  1157. 50:43died.
  1158. 50:44But I am the bread.""That manna spoke of
  1159. 50:47me, but he who eats of me has eternal
  1160. 50:49life.
  1161. 50:51And he had to provide water
  1162. 50:54through a rock, and they were cold and
  1163. 50:58there was a cloud, a pillar of fire, and
  1164. 51:01they were hot and there was a cloud that
  1165. 51:04covered them.
  1166. 51:08Look,
  1167. 51:10the problem with Israel was not that
  1168. 51:11they didn't believe.
  1169. 51:14How could they not believe?
  1170. 51:16They had seen the death, the plagues,
  1171. 51:18the death of the firstborn. They had
  1172. 51:20crossed the Red Sea on dry land.
  1173. 51:23How could they not believe?
  1174. 51:26But they did not know the God who had
  1175. 51:28brought them out of Egypt.
  1176. 51:32And what was the misfortune?
  1177. 51:36of Israel
  1178. 51:40that it refused to grow, it refused to
  1179. 51:43know the God and the life and the
  1180. 51:45salvation that God had granted it.
  1181. 51:49Look, if let's say
  1182. 51:53I, uh, at the end of the month Seba is
  1183. 51:54coming, who is going to be a dad, he's
  1184. 51:56going to make me a grandfather for the
  1185. 51:57first time.
  1186. 51:59Oh, amazing.
  1187. 52:01Well, yes.
  1188. 52:04And
  1189. 52:07when a baby is born in a house, it's
  1190. 52:08impressive news, right? Beautiful.
  1191. 52:11But suppose for a mother that a year
  1192. 52:14passes, two pass, and you see him as if
  1193. 52:17he were a newborn, he doesn't grow.
  1194. 52:24And it's like that news that was
  1195. 52:27beautiful now becomes, well, terrible
  1196. 52:30news,
  1197. 52:33a tragedy, right? Why isn't the baby
  1198. 52:35growing?
  1199. 52:38He's sick, something is wrong with him,
  1200. 52:41right?
  1201. 52:42That was the tragedy of Israel in the
  1202. 52:45desert. They refused to grow, they
  1203. 52:47refused to mature, they refused to know
  1204. 52:49the life that had been given to them and
  1205. 52:51remained like a baby.
  1206. 52:53A baby
  1207. 52:55has a fundamental characteristic; it has
  1208. 52:57a great dependency on the world around
  1209. 52:59it.
  1210. 53:01It cries and we don't know, well, maybe
  1211. 53:03it's hungry, maybe something hurts, a
  1212. 53:05tummy ache, I don't know, teething,
  1213. 53:07maybe it has gas, we don't know what.
  1214. 53:10But we keep trying to, uh, guess, right
  1215. 53:14, what is wrong with it.
  1216. 53:18And over time we start to have, like,
  1217. 53:20empathy, more or less trying to
  1218. 53:21understand what is wrong, because it
  1219. 53:22cannot fend for itself, it doesn't know
  1220. 53:24how to eat alone, it doesn't know how to
  1221. 53:26dress alone, it doesn't know how to walk
  1222. 53:27alone, it doesn't know how to make
  1223. 53:29decisions, everything depends on us.
  1224. 53:32What happened to Israel?
  1225. 53:33They were a child, they refused to grow
  1226. 53:35,
  1227. 53:37and so in everything they depended on
  1228. 53:40God. God had to provide every day,
  1229. 53:42provide, provide, provide, provide,
  1230. 53:44provide, provide.
  1231. 53:47Miracles, miracles, miracles, miracles,
  1232. 53:49miracles.
  1233. 53:51And
  1234. 53:54something that is tremendous,
  1235. 53:57they arrived at the bank of the Jordan
  1236. 53:59River.
  1237. 54:00One representative from each tribe went
  1238. 54:02. There were 12.
  1239. 54:0510 of them said," No, there are many
  1240. 54:07peoples.
  1241. 54:08There were many peoples.
  1242. 54:10There were seven strong representatives
  1243. 54:12and some of them were giants, and 10 of
  1244. 54:15them said, "No, we are going to die."
  1245. 54:18The first thing they hadn't understood
  1246. 54:19was that they had already died.
  1247. 54:22They had already died in the lamb.
  1248. 54:25And the other point is that they didn't
  1249. 54:27have to conquer the land, they had to
  1250. 54:29possess it because God had already given
  1251. 54:31it to them.
  1252. 54:33Beloved, Christ has already been given
  1253. 54:35to us.
  1254. 54:38There is no personal merit, it is not
  1255. 54:40personal effort, it is not iron
  1256. 54:42discipline, it is grace,
  1257. 54:46>> it is surrendering, it is believing God
  1258. 54:49and entering into the full knowledge.
  1259. 54:53It is I have lost everything, I have
  1260. 54:55considered everything as rubbish in
  1261. 54:56order to know Him.
  1262. 55:00It is letting go of the desires of this
  1263. 55:02world, letting go of the desires of
  1264. 55:05Egypt to enter into the full knowledge
  1265. 55:07of Him.
  1266. 55:12And when those 10 said that, do you
  1267. 55:15think God said, "Well,
  1268. 55:18well, it's okay, after all, at least
  1269. 55:20they are saved." No, He did not say that
  1270. 55:22.
  1271. 55:25He said, "I brought you out of Egypt
  1272. 55:27with a purpose."
  1273. 55:29In other words, God did not bring Israel
  1274. 55:31out of Egypt because Israel had problems
  1275. 55:33.
  1276. 55:34He brought them out because God has a
  1277. 55:36purpose and it was to bring them into
  1278. 55:38the promised land, to bring them into
  1279. 55:40the full knowledge of Him.
  1280. 55:46And what He said, you will return to the
  1281. 55:49desert and you will wander in the desert
  1282. 55:52until your bodies fall dead in it.
  1283. 55:58That was the tragedy of Israel.
  1284. 56:00But He is not talking about Israel, He
  1285. 56:01is talking about us.
  1286. 56:06We can live our whole lives in Christ
  1287. 56:08and wander in our own imaginations
  1288. 56:11throughout our whole lives until our
  1289. 56:14bodies fall dead in this world, without
  1290. 56:17having truly known the life, the
  1291. 56:19salvation that was granted to us, which
  1292. 56:22is Christ in us.
  1293. 56:28Look, Israel, the scripture says, their
  1294. 56:31sandals never wore out, their clothes
  1295. 56:33never wore out, they never lacked
  1296. 56:35provision.
  1297. 56:40In other words, their bellies were full
  1298. 56:43of provision, but they died with their
  1299. 56:47hearts empty of purpose.
  1300. 56:54They lived a life without purpose and
  1301. 56:56without knowing the life, the delight
  1302. 56:58and the joy of the life that was granted
  1303. 57:01to them.
  1304. 57:03Only two said, "But we don't have to
  1305. 57:05conquer anything.
  1306. 57:07God already gave it to us, we have to
  1307. 57:09possess it."
  1308. 57:11And Joshua and Caleb entered,
  1309. 57:16they entered.
  1310. 57:22And
  1311. 57:24what I want to tell you, beloved,
  1312. 57:28this is the story of our salvation.
  1313. 57:31Israel being in the desert,
  1314. 57:37neither could Egypt come for them, nor
  1315. 57:39could they return to Egypt, they were
  1316. 57:41saved.
  1317. 57:47But Paul says, "There are so many things
  1318. 57:50I have to tell you about this glorious
  1319. 57:52mystery in which we were given
  1320. 57:54everything, all things where we dwell in
  1321. 57:57the unsearchable riches in Christ.
  1322. 58:01And I cannot speak to you about this
  1323. 58:03because you remain children, spiritual
  1324. 58:05babies."
  1325. 58:11That is why the concern of the apostles
  1326. 58:14was, it is urgent, it is urgent to
  1327. 58:16mature, urgent.
  1328. 58:21Or we will be spiritual children all the
  1329. 58:24time longing for God to be providing all
  1330. 58:27the time.
  1331. 58:34And so we come with the expectation, as
  1332. 58:36we were saying, come
  1333. 58:39expecting to receive. Expecting to
  1334. 58:41receive what
  1335. 58:46if in Christ we were not given
  1336. 58:47everything?
  1337. 58:50>> We just need to enter into the full
  1338. 58:52knowledge of him to know what has been
  1339. 58:55granted.
  1340. 58:58And what has been granted? The Son.
  1341. 59:00He gave us the Son, and in him, all
  1342. 59:02things.
  1343. 59:04So, there are people who interpret the
  1344. 59:06desert by saying, "God put me in the
  1345. 59:09desert to teach me something.""How to
  1346. 59:12teach you something? What is God going
  1347. 59:14to teach you in the desert? The only
  1348. 59:15thing God is saying in the desert is,"
  1349. 59:17Get out of the desert. "" In other words
  1350. 59:19, enter into full knowledge. "
  1351. 59:25But do you understand, I mean, do you
  1352. 59:27know what religion says? Religion says
  1353. 59:28this. I have a need, I ask God for it,
  1354. 59:30and God provides it for me. That is what
  1355. 59:32religion says.
  1356. 59:36But what does the gospel say?
  1357. 59:39The gospel says," We were dead, Christ
  1358. 59:42came, he granted us life and everything
  1359. 59:44in him, and now we enter into the
  1360. 59:45knowledge of that reality. "
  1361. 59:50We were created for that reality.
  1362. 59:52That is it.
  1363. 59:56That is the prevailing reality in which
  1364. 59:58we were known by God before everything
  1365. 1:00:01was created.
  1366. 1:00:05And Paul says," And I will know just as
  1367. 1:00:08I have been known. "
  1368. 1:00:12Amen. So, we are not people waiting for
  1369. 1:00:15God to be providing.
  1370. 1:00:17We are people who need to enter into the
  1371. 1:00:20full knowledge of Christ to be able to
  1372. 1:00:22see, know, delight in, and enjoy
  1373. 1:00:24everything already granted in him. This
  1374. 1:00:27is the story of our salvation.
  1375. 1:00:31But what does it mean? I cannot pass
  1376. 1:00:33from death to life if I do not cross,
  1377. 1:00:37right?
  1378. 1:00:38If I don't cross the Red Sea, and I
  1379. 1:00:40cannot know this life if I don't cross
  1380. 1:00:43the Jordan River by way of a cross. What
  1381. 1:00:46does that mean?
  1382. 1:00:47Where there is a gospel where there is
  1383. 1:00:49no cross, Paul says," Run.
  1384. 1:00:52"That is not the gospel;
  1385. 1:00:56that is the complete opposite.
  1386. 1:00:58Get out of there.
  1387. 1:01:01If you look at what happened with Jesus
  1388. 1:01:03, crowds coming to seek his miracles,
  1389. 1:01:05Jesus told them," Look, I want to
  1390. 1:01:07explain to you.
  1391. 1:01:11Miracles are signs, but what do they
  1392. 1:01:13point to?
  1393. 1:01:14The promised land; they are pointing to
  1394. 1:01:16him.
  1395. 1:01:18A miracle is not an end in itself.
  1396. 1:01:21But, do you remember what the church
  1397. 1:01:22calls revival? What does it normally
  1398. 1:01:25call revival?
  1399. 1:01:26Miracles.
  1400. 1:01:29But what is a miracle? A sign.
  1401. 1:01:33Why did God produce miracles in the
  1402. 1:01:35desert? For one single purpose. That
  1403. 1:01:38they might advance to the promised land
  1404. 1:01:40.
  1405. 1:01:41And what is revival? Even though it is a
  1406. 1:01:43word not found in the scriptures.
  1407. 1:01:46What would revival be?
  1408. 1:01:49A greater measure of life, right?
  1409. 1:01:53And where is life?
  1410. 1:01:55In knowing the one who is life.
  1411. 1:01:58where a greater measure of that life is
  1412. 1:02:00being expressed, where Christ is being
  1413. 1:02:02formed in us.
  1414. 1:02:03I mean, the power of his resurrection is
  1415. 1:02:06when they come to tell Jesus,
  1416. 1:02:11"Lord, get out of here because Herod is
  1417. 1:02:13looking to kill you.""And he says to
  1418. 1:02:15them, 'Tell that fox
  1419. 1:02:18that I cast out demons, I do miracles
  1420. 1:02:20the first and the second day, but the
  1421. 1:02:22third day I finish my work.'"
  1422. 1:02:25He is not talking about calendar days.
  1423. 1:02:27What is the third day?
  1424. 1:02:29The day of his resurrection. And what is
  1425. 1:02:32the power of his resurrection? It is the
  1426. 1:02:34power of the third day that dwells in us
  1427. 1:02:35.
  1428. 1:02:37But we are no longer in the first and
  1429. 1:02:39the second day. Where are we?
  1430. 1:02:41Of course, it is the day in which we
  1431. 1:02:44dwell. For what purpose?
  1432. 1:02:46Not to wait, to receive like the first
  1433. 1:02:48and second day miracles, miracles,
  1434. 1:02:50miracles. Like in the wilderness,
  1435. 1:02:55we crossed the Jordan River to enjoy the
  1436. 1:02:57land flowing with milk and honey, where
  1437. 1:03:00everything is provided.
  1438. 1:03:03Why should we be begging for water and
  1439. 1:03:04bread when everything has already been
  1440. 1:03:06provided in the unsearchable riches in
  1441. 1:03:08Christ, which is where we dwell now?
  1442. 1:03:11Amen.
  1443. 1:03:12>> Well, may God accomplish it in us.
  1444. 1:03:15Thank you very much.
