Good evening, beloved friends and brethren present, and radio listeners. It is a great privilege to be with you on this occasion, to share some moments around the Word of God, and to see the meaning and the mystery hidden in the parable of the wheat and the tares.

Our subject for this occasion is: “THE MYSTERY OF THE WHEAT AND THE TARES.”

For this reason, let’s read in Saint Matthew chapter 13, verses 36 to 43; after Jesus gives the parable of the wheat and the tares, it says:

“Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.

He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;

The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;

The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.

As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.

The Son of man shall send forth his angels, and they shall gather out of his kingdom all things that offend, and (all) them which do iniquity;

And shall cast them into a furnace of fire: there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.

Then shall the righteous shine forth as the sun in the kingdom of their Father. Who hath ears to hear, let him hear.”

Our subject is: “THE MYSTERY OF THE WHEAT AND THE TARES.”

This mystery hidden here has been manifested here on Earth for centuries. Christ, notice, spoke of the wheat and the tares, showing that there are children of God and there are children of the devil on this Earth.

And how did all of this happen? In the Book of Genesis we find that in the garden of Eden, where God put the human being when He created him… God had created the human being in the sixth dimension first, where He gave him a theophanic body of the sixth dimension, and he was in the image of God;¹ and then He gave him a physical body here on Earth, created of the dust of the ground, and the human being became a living soul on this Earth,² with a theophanic or spiritual body, which is the spirit that Adam received within a body of flesh created of the dust of the ground.

After a certain time, God formed Adam a helpmate, which He took from his side; for He caused sleep to fall upon and took a rib from his side, and formed him a helpmate; and when Adam woke up, we find that he had a helpmate, and he said: “This is flesh of my flesh, and bone of my bones,” and he called her Woman, “because she was taken out of Man.”³

God had said to the human being, to man, (before giving him a helpmate): “You may eat freely of every tree of the garden of Eden; but of the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil, you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat thereof, you shall die.”⁴

Now, we find that in the garden of Eden there were two trees: One, the Tree of Life, and the other, the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

Just as Christ tells us that the Son of man sowed wheat in the field, but the devil came and sowed tares.

Now, when Christ speaks to us about the wheat and the tares, He is speaking in parables about the human race, to show that there are children of God and children of the devil.

And now, there in Genesis there are two trees: One, the Tree of Life, and the other, the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil.

And now, who is the Tree of Life? The Tree of Life is Christ, our beloved Savior, He is the Tree of Life; and that is why He said on one occasion or on different occasions: “I am the Bread of Life which came down from Heaven, not to do My will, but the will of Him that sent Me; and he that eats of this Bread shall live forever.”⁵

Now, we can see that He is that Tree of Life which brings forth the fruit of Eternal Life so that we may eat of Him and live eternally. He said in Saint John chapter 6, verse 40:

“And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.”

Chapter 6, verse 40, of Saint John. And in the same chapter, chapter 6 of Saint John, verses 47 and on, He says:

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.

I am that bread of life.

Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.

This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day.”

Here we have the promise of the resurrection for all those who eat of the Tree of Life, which is Christ.

“Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood,” (He says he will live eternally), “hath eternal life,” and He says, “and I will raise him up,” (when?) “at the last day,” (meaning, in the seventh millennium).

“For my flesh is meat indeed, and my blood is drink indeed.

He that eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, dwelleth in me, and I in him.

As the living Father hath sent me, and I live by the Father: so he that eateth me, even he shall live by me.

This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.”

Now notice where the secret is, the mystery and secret of Eternal Life: it’s in Christ, who is the Tree of Life.

Now, in order for the human being to eat of the Tree of Life there in the garden of Eden, the Tree of Life had to become flesh: Christ had to be made flesh so that the human being could eat of the Tree of Life; and that had not happened yet.

But notice: the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil is the devil, and the devil became flesh in the garden of Eden in the serpent, that animal which was very similar to the human being, which is the missing link between man and animals, that is the one that is next in line after the human being.

Now, notice that it goes down from the human being to animals, but among animals: there are animals that look a bit like the human being (such as the chimpanzee, monkeys, and so on); but the one that was between the chimpanzee and the human being was the serpent, that serpent race, that animal race which was very similar to the human being (and which walked upright, and spoke, reasoned, he was very intelligent), and he had a spirit, but he did not have a soul, although he had a place for a soul. And in the place for the soul, that is where the devil put himself and controlled that animal; and through that animal, the devil manifested himself in flesh, not human but animal flesh.

And through that manifestation in animal flesh, he came and beguiled Eve, and brought forth a son named Cain; that is why the Bible tells us in the First of Saint John, chapter 3, verse 12:

“Not as Cain, who was of that wicked one, and slew his brother,” (Abel).

Who is the wicked one? The devil. And now, through the devil manifested in animal flesh in the serpent, he brought that son into existence; through that deception, that seduction brought by the serpent; for the Scripture says that the devil, the serpent, seduced Eve⁶ (everyone knows what that means).

And now, notice, later on, Adam, through Eve, also brought forth a son named Abel.

They both grew, they were… they were born of the same womb, and they appeared as twins, although they had different fathers; and that is where the problem of the human race began, it started back in the garden of Eden. And then they grew up, but God had already brought Adam, Eve, and the serpent to judgment.

The curse came upon Eve, and she became the mother of all living beings (of the good and the bad too),⁷ and in sorrow she would bring forth children,⁸ meaning, she would bring forth children painfully, and that is why women go through these problems during pregnancy. Then, notice, the woman’s name was changed from “Woman” to “Eve.”

And then, the curse came upon the serpent; and God told him that because he did what he did, dust would be his food, and he would crawl on his belly.⁹ And the curse fell upon the serpent; and it went from being an upright animal, similar to man, and taller than man, to a reptile, its form changed.

And that generation, that serpent race… just like there is this monkey race… We say “monkey race” but not all of them are male, there are female monkeys too. [The word mono or “monkey” in Spanish is masculine—Translator.] We also say “whale race” but not all whales are female [The word ballena or “whale” in Spanish is feminine—Translator], there are also male whales, we would call them male whales; but the race as a whole is called the whale race. And likewise, no matter what the race is called, if it has a feminine or masculine name: there are males and females in that race; and such is the serpent race.

That race was cursed; and from that point on, we can’t find that serpent race anymore, because it was turned into a reptile.

But bodies that belonged to that ancient race appear daily (let’s say, daily, or every so often), when scientists, archeologists, dig and search for traces of other generations, on different occasions they discover skeletons that they say belong to human beings who lived ten thousand years ago, or a hundred thousand years ago, or a million years ago, or a hundred million years ago, they are discovering that race, the serpent race; but they don’t know it’s the serpent race, so they say: “This is what man was like before he became the way he is nowadays.”

But notice, when God created man, He didn’t create him in the form of a monkey first, nor in the form of a chimpanzee. No. God created man: a man! And when He made him a helpmate, He made him a female helpmate; she wasn’t an animal first.

Now, notice, that serpent race is the one that scientists say existed thousands or millions of years ago; and every time, they find different skeletons, and they test them, and they say: “This is this many thousands or this many millions of years old.” But the race that comes through Adam is a young race, it is a race that has not existed for that many years. Since the time of Adam, until now, about six thousand years have passed; and from that point on, very important things have been happening in the Divine Program.

And now, we have seen how the seed or race, or the children of the devil, have come into this Earth, this planet Earth, and also how the children of God have come in: Adam and Eve, children of God.

But all the children of God had to come through Adam and Eve; but the devil manifested himself, and notice all the disasters he brought upon the human race; and that is why the human race has been interbred or mixed.

And that is why when Adam, Eve, and the serpent came before God: a curse came upon Eve, a curse came upon the serpent… and when God was going to curse Adam: he cursed the ground. And that is why the ground brings forth thistles and thorns, and sometimes it refuses to bring forth fruit for the human race; and there are arid places that bring forth nothing but thistles and thorns.

And now, notice how Adam himself lost all the rights to Eternal Life, he lost the rights to eternal inheritance, he lost the rights to eternal inheritance; and therefore, all the children of God and the human race have been in bondage on this Earth: being born in a mortal, corruptible, and temporary body, and with a spirit of the world.

Because, due to the fall, the human race had to obtain a spirit of the world, of the fifth dimension, the same kind of spirit that the serpent had; and therefore, mankind has been like a puppet in the hands of the devil, in bondage just as the Hebrew people were in bondage back in Egypt.

But notice, God knew all of that would happen; therefore, God made a way back for the human being, He made a way of redemption, so that the human being can come back to Eternal Life, with all the rights that Adam and Eve lost being restored.

Adam had the Title Deed, but when he sinned, the Deed and all the rights contained in that Deed were forfeited; and that seven-sealed Book returned to the right hand of God.

And now, we find that the human race has been mixed, it has been mixed… And notice, when the human being is born, he obtains a spirit of the world; and he also obtains a physical body, which is mortal, corruptible, temporary, which cannot live eternally.

He used to live up to… Methuselah lived nine hundred and sixty-nine years,¹⁰ but despite that, he died, because after the fall, the human being could not live for one day before God; and one day before God means or represents a thousand years to human beings; because one day before God is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day, it says in Second Peter chapter 3, verse 8, and the Prophet Moses also says this in Psalm 90, verse 4.

And now, that is why the human being has not been able to live a thousand years, he has died before reaching a thousand years old.

And now, notice, as time and generations have passed, the human being’s lifespan has been shortened. Notice, from being a person with no time limit before sinning, now we find that the one who lived the longest was Methuselah; Adam lived about nine hundred and thirty years, which is a lot of years, but in the end, he died too,¹¹ for the wages of sin is what? Death.¹²

And now, the human being’s years have been shortened. After the flood, the one who lived the longest was Noah, who lived about eight hundred and fifty years in all, from the time he was born until he died; in other words, after the flood, Noah lived about two hundred and fifty years or so… Let’s see here, if you want the exact number, and… it was about eight hundred or nine hundred and fifty years; nine hundred and fifty years. Let’s see, we find that in the Book of Genesis, where it tells us how long Noah lived, but in the end he died; it says (chapter 9, verses 28 to 29):

“And Noah lived after the flood three hundred and fifty years.

And all the days of Noah were nine hundred and fifty years: and he died.”

In other words, no matter how long a person lives, in the end he will die, his physical body will die; although the person keeps living in another dimension:

If he didn’t receive Christ as his Savior, well, he goes to the fifth dimension, which is the dimension that the spirit which the person received when he was born belongs to. But if he has received Christ as his Savior and he has received His Holy Spirit, then the person has received a spirit of the sixth dimension; and the sixth dimension is Paradise; therefore, that person goes to Paradise, he is taken by God’s angels and he lives there in Paradise until the resurrection of the dead in Christ takes place, where he will rise in an eternal body to live for all eternity.

Because in order for the human being to come to this Earth in a body and live eternally, first he must have a theophanic spirit of the sixth dimension, and live in the sixth dimension, be there; come from there to here, to this dimension; and that is obtained when the person believes in Christ as his Savior and receives His Holy Spirit.

The person has already been put in heavenly places in Christ Jesus¹³: he has a spirit of the sixth dimension. And a spirit of the sixth dimension is not a smoke [vapor] or something like that; it is a body, just like our body here, but from another dimension.

Just like the spirit the person receives when he is born: it is a body of another dimension, of the fifth dimension; but notice, in order to live eternally the person needs to have a spirit, a body, of the sixth dimension; and then he needs to have a body that is eternal, a physical and glorified body, which Christ will give us when the dead in Christ are raised in eternal bodies and we are changed.

Now, notice how the whole Divine Program that is being carried out from one time to another time, from generation to generation, and from dispensation to dispensation, is for the human being’s return to Eternal Life.

And we come to this Earth in mortal bodies, we have been born (in terms of the physical body) through our father and mother; and we have grown and we have obtained the stature that we have (those of us who are already grown up); there are others who are still in the childhood stage; and others are in the stage in their mother’s womb (but once they are born, they go through these same life stages); and in the end, the physical body must die.

Because Saint Paul tells us that “flesh and blood cannot inherit the Kingdom of God; neither does corruption inherit incorruption.”¹⁴ In other words, this corruptible body cannot become incorruptible, it must die, and corruption must set in there, when it dies; because when the person’s spirit and soul leave that body, it is a dead body; for the body without the spirit is dead—it is a dead body.

Now, notice that there is a Divine Program for which we have come to this Earth: to come in contact with Eternal Life, to come in contact with the Tree of Life, which is Christ, and receive Christ as our Savior, and wash away our sins in the Blood of the Lamb, and eat of that Tree of Life, and receive His Holy Spirit, and eat of that Tree of Life and live eternally.

Now, notice that there are people who don’t understand the reason for their existence here on Earth, and they spend their time working, struggling, striving, and don’t seek the Kingdom of God.

And Christ said: “Seek first,” (in other words, the first thing the human being has to do is seek the Kingdom of God), “Seek first the Kingdom of God, and His righteousness; and all other things shall be added unto you.”¹⁵ All the other things are the additions of life, which we need; but the first thing is to seek the Kingdom of God, in order to obtain what? To obtain the new birth in the Kingdom of God, and thus, have Eternal Life.

Until the human being has obtained the new birth (by believing in Christ and receiving His Holy Spirit), although the person is alive in that physical body, he is dead before God.

And, therefore: if the person dies without receiving Christ as his Savior, and washing away his sins in the Blood of Christ, and receiving His Holy Spirit, what happens to the person? Well, he dies. And where does he go? Well, he goes to the fifth dimension. And what is the fifth dimension? Hell.

But if he dies after believing in Christ as his Savior, and washing away his sins in the Blood of Christ, and receiving His Holy Spirit: if he dies, that is no problem: he goes on to live in Paradise, until the resurrection of the dead in Christ takes place; of which Christ said: “And I will raise him up at the Last Day.”¹⁶

Whom does He say that He will raise up? Those who believe in Him. Not everyone.

He will raise up those who believe in Him in eternal bodies, that’s in the first resurrection; and in the second resurrection, he will raise up everyone else. What for? So that they go before the White Throne, before the Judgment of God, and thus, they are judged for their works that they have carried out here on this Earth, meaning, for all the things they have done while they have been in their physical body.

Now, we must understand that on this Earth, Christ said there are wheat and tares, referring to human beings; and He said that the wheat are the children of the Kingdom (the children of God), and the tares are the children of the wicked one.

And He also said on another occasion, in chapter 15, verse 13, of Saint *Matthew: “Every plant which My Heavenly Father has not planted, shall be rooted up, (and cast into the fire).”

Now, where lies the difference, among human beings, between some being children of God and others not being children of God? The difference is in the soul; the difference is in the person’s soul.

The souls that come from God, that are part of God, that were in God, that were an attribute in God’s Mind, those are the children of God; manifested on this Earth in human flesh, in these mortal bodies, to come in contact with Christ on this Earth, and receive the new birth and enter into the Kingdom of God. Christ told Nicodemus, in [John] chapter 3, verse 1 and on:

“There was a man of the Pharisees, named Nicodemus, a ruler of the Jews:

The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.

Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God,” (meaning, he cannot understand It.)

“Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother’s womb, and be born?

Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.”

Notice the way we enter into the Kingdom of God: through the new birth. And the new birth isn’t by entering into our mother’s womb again to be born, nor by being born of another woman, but by believing in Christ as our Savior, and receiving His Holy Spirit (having washed away our sins in the Blood of Jesus Christ).

There is no other way to enter into the Kingdom of God, there is no other way to become part of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; because the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is the Church redeemed by the Blood of Jesus Christ.

And now, notice these people who have believed in Christ from age to age and from dispensation to dispensation... Now, I said: “Have believed in Christ.”

They have believed in Christ in the Old Testament: in the things that represented Christ, those sacrifices; and those people will be living eternally.

And the people who have believed in Christ, from the time of Christ until now, and have washed away their sins in the Blood of Jesus Christ, and have received His Holy Spirit: those are God’s firstborn.

And there are people who have believed in Christ as their Savior, who have washed away their sins in the Blood of the Lamb, but still have not received the Spirit of Christ; but although those people are not part of God’s firstborn, those people will not perish, they will rise in the second resurrection and live eternally, they will do well on Judgment Day.

But the tares, which are the children of the wicked one, those will never-ever-ever go into Eternal Life; because “every plant which My Heavenly Father has not planted, shall be rooted up (and cast into the fire).” That is what Christ said, and that is what Christ will do.

Now, those people don’t have their names written in the Lamb’s Book of Life, none of them do. And if one of them has their name written in the other section of the Book of Life, at some point it is blotted out and then he is left out of the Book of Life.

It’s like what happened to Judas Iscariot: he had his name written in that section of the Book of Life; for Christ said… When all seventy came testifying the things that God was doing through them when preaching the Gospel, and healing the sick, and casting out devils in the Name of Jesus Christ, they came to Christ telling Him all of this, and Christ said: “Rejoice not because the spirits are subject unto you in My Name; but rather rejoice because your names are written in Heaven.”¹⁷

Now notice, the name of Judas was also written, but it was in the section from which those names can be blotted out at some point, for a grave reason. And the name of Judas Iscariot was blotted out of the Book of Life because he sold his Master: he delivered Him for thirty pieces of silver.¹⁸

Now, notice how a person must be faithful to Christ and never turn away from Christ, he must receive Christ as his Savior and continue moving forward in his life; so that if his name is in the section of the Lamb’s Book of Life, when he dies (if his physical body dies), he may go to Paradise; and if the dead in Christ rise and that person is still alive, well, that person may be changed, his physical body may be changed, and he may have the new body, and be in the image and likeness of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ.

And notice, if the person has his name written in the Book of Life, in the other section, and he dies, well, he won’t perish; if he dies serving Christ, well, he won’t perish: he will live eternally, and he will do well on Judgment Day.

Now, the elect are the only ones who will not go through Judgment Day, because they have already been born again, they have entered into the Kingdom of God, to form part of the Church of Jesus Christ, and they already have Eternal Life; because they have a theophanic body of the sixth dimension, they have the Spirit of Christ of the sixth dimension; and therefore, they have already passed from death unto Life. And now all that’s left is (what?) for their physical body to be changed, in order to be completely in the image and likeness of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ. That is the promise for God’s wheat, for the children of the Kingdom, for God’s sons and daughters who live on this Earth from age to age and from dispensation to dispensation.

If his physical body dies, Christ will raise him up in an eternal body; and if he is still alive and the resurrection of the dead in Christ takes place, well, we will be changed, and thus, we will obtain the eternal body; and we will be just like our beloved Lord Jesus Christ.

Christ said this would happen at the Last Day, and it will happen at the Last Day, in the seventh millennium.

And now, this is also what Christ said when He spoke about the corn of wheat, and said: “Except a corn of wheat falls into the ground and dies, it abides alone; but if it falls into the ground and dies, it brings forth much fruit.”¹⁹

And if Christ hadn’t died on Calvary’s Cross, He would remain alive, because He didn’t have sin (for death comes because of sin, it is the wages of sin); but all other human beings would die. And at the time in which Christ died, the Divine Judgment had to fall upon the whole human race.

And now, by Christ taking our sins, He became sin for us; it’s not that He sinned, but He became sin by taking our sins; and since the wages of sin is death, He became mortal; He had to die.

And that is why when He died He had to go to hell in His theophanic body; and there, in hell, He took the keys of death and hell away from the devil; and then He went to Paradise, where the Old Testament saints were waiting for Him; and on the day of the resurrection: on Resurrection Sunday, Christ rose again, He resurrected, and the Old Testament saints rose with Him; and they appeared to many people in the city of Jerusalem.²⁰

And Christ also appeared to His disciples on different occasions, for a period of forty days,²¹ and then He ascended to Heaven;²² and together with Him, the saints of the Old Testament, who had risen with Christ.

And the Psalm that speaks to us, saying:²³

“Open up, oh everlasting gates, [lift up] your heads; and the King of Glory shall come in.”

And they ask in Heaven:

“Who is this King of Glory?”

And those who go with Christ answer:

“The Lord! The Lord is the King of Glory! The Lord strong and mighty, He is the King of lory!”

And there goes the Lord, the Jehovah of the Old Testament; Jesus Christ was ascending with the Old Testament saints.

And that Scripture (the second part) will be repeated; if we continue reading, it repeats the same thing. Therefore, at the end time, in the Second Coming of Christ, and the resurrection of the dead in Christ, and our transformation, and our rapture, once again it will be said:

“Oh everlasting gates, [lift up] your heads, open up your doors; and the King of Glory shall come in.

Who is this King of Glory?”

Our beloved Lord Jesus Christ, coming at the Last Day for the resurrection of the dead in Christ and our transformation, and the rapture of all His elect, of all the wheat of God, which will be taken to Heaven, to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.

Now, all of this is promised to be fulfilled at the Last Day, meaning, in the seventh millennium. And that is why the wheat, the children of the Kingdom, have been believing in Christ as their Savior and receiving His Holy Spirit from age to age.

And that is why we see that some believe and others don’t believe; it’s because there are wheat and tares on this Earth.

The tares don’t see the importance of believing in Jesus Christ as their Savior; they can’t believe that there is Eternal Life, they cannot believe that there is another life.

But notice, there is another life. And there is… after one dies, there is life, there is life in another dimension, both for the wheat and for the tares; for the wheat in the sixth dimension, and for the tares in the fifth dimension; the fifth dimension is hell, the sixth dimension is Paradise.

And then the Divine Judgment will come to the tares at the Last Day; the Divine Judgment upon the tares that are alive. But the Divine Blessing will also come to the wheat who are alive, for a transformation.

But before that transformation, a Great Voice of Trumpet comes sounding, and calling and gathering all of God’s elect. Gathering what? God’s wheat. Like in the parable of the wheat and tares, which says that He will send His Angels, to do what? Let’s see, He says that He will send the Reapers. [Matthew] chapter 13 says… let’s see, verses 24 and on says:

“Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:

But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.

But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.

So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?

He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?

But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.

Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.”

In other words, in the time of Harvest, at the end of the world, there will be a gathering: a harvest of the tares being bound in bundles to be burned in the fire; and of the wheat, to be put in God’s Garner.

Now, notice how this is a promise from Jesus Christ. The Son of man, Jesus Christ sends His Angels to carry out the gathering of the wheat at the Last Day. And in Saint Matthew chapter 24, verse 31, it says:

“And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect.”

This is the time for this promise to be fulfilled.

Now, let’s see also in Revelation chapter 14, verse 14 and on, where it tells us:

“And I looked, and behold a white cloud, and upon the cloud one sat like unto the Son of man, having on his head a golden crown, and in his hand a sharp sickle.

And another angel came out of the temple, crying with a loud voice to him that sat on the cloud, Thrust in thy sickle, and reap: for the time is come for thee to reap; for the harvest of the earth is ripe.

And he that sat on the cloud thrust in his sickle on the earth; and the earth was reaped.”

That is the time of the Harvest, of the gathering of the wheat, of the Lord’s Harvest; and we are living at the time of the gathering of the wheat, we are living in the greatest and most glorious times of all times.

On February 28, 1963, a very important sign appeared in the sky that we cannot overlook; which was published in Science²⁴ and Life²⁵ magazines, that year, in 1963; and it was published as a mysterious ring, a cloud forming a mysterious ring, twenty-six miles high,²⁶ measuring thirty miles across by fifty miles long.²⁷

In other words, it was a giant cloud; and planes don’t fly at the height at which it appeared, therefore, it couldn’t have been formed by an airplane; nor is there moisture to form a cloud there, so it was not formed by moisture; it was not a cloud like the ones we commonly see.

And what is the mystery of this cloud? Rev. William Marrion Branham, from North America, tells us that while he was hunting that day on the mountains of Tucson, Arizona, seven Angels sent by God appeared to him and lifted him up in the air; they took him to where this cloud was formed, in other words, they went up to this height and these seven Angels were there with Rev. William Branham. And this photograph and that cloud that was formed, which was captured in a photograph, is formed by these Angels who were there.

There are eight angel-messengers; seven angel-messengers for the seven Gentile Church ages, and another Angel who was very different from the rest, which is the Son of man, Christ; who, at the Last Day…

Just like each angel-messenger who was there was manifested in human flesh on Earth, and carried out the ministry of his time, and that was the manifestation of Christ through each angel-messenger in each age, calling and gathering the elect of each age, the wheat of each age…

Now, at the Last Day, that Angel who was very different from the rest must come in human flesh in the Angel-Messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, in order to have the ministry of the Son of man; for the manifestation of the Son of man, not in heaven anymore, not in the clouds anymore, but here on Earth, among human beings; to thus call and gather all His elect with the Great Voice of Trumpet; to reap, to carry out that Work through His Angel-Messenger, in whom He will be manifesting the ministries of the Angels of the Son of man, which are the ministries of the Two Olive Trees, the ministries of Moses and Elijah, who are sent with the Great Voice of Trumpet.

What is the Great Voice of Trumpet? It is the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, which revolves around the Second Coming of Christ, the Coming of the Son of man at this Last Day.

Now, we have seen that the Son of man is the One that sows the good seed; we have seen that the field is the world, we have seen that the children of the Kingdom—the wheat are the children of the Kingdom; we have seen that the tares are the children of the devil.

We have also seen that the ground where the children of God are sown is this Earth, in the different territories where God puts His children, His elect; and therefore, those souls that are in those mortal bodies are God’s sons and daughters, they are the wheat that God puts here on Earth, in the field. Because Christ, the Son of man, is the One who carries out that sowing and also the One who will also carry out that harvest.

And now, notice how in this world the children of the Kingdom, the members of the mystical Body of the Lord Jesus Christ, have been present in the different stages; but we have also seen the persecutions there have been at different times, as there were in Genesis: Cain killing Abel.

We have seen that the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ has been persecuted, and thousands or millions of Christians have been killed in different times.

And now, notice how all of this has been because the wheat and tares are here on Earth; and the tares always seeks the destruction of the wheat, it always seeks to kill the wheat, to have the whole field to itself, and for the tares to be the heir to this world.

But Christ has said that the wheat will be gathered and put in God’s Garner; and that the tares will be gathered and cast into the furnace of fire, and there shall be wailing and gnashing of teeth.²⁸

And now, notice how Christ spoke to us about this, just as the Prophet Malachi had spoken to us in chapter 4, verse 1 and on; it says:

“For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.”

Whom is this for? For those who do wickedly; this is for the tares, and it refers to human beings.

“But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall.”

This is for the wheat, for the children of the Kingdom.

Now, notice how God differentiates between the wheat and the tares.

And the wheat has been on this Earth from age to age, during the different stages of the Divine Program; and at this end time…

Notice, we can see how the wheat, the children of the Kingdom, the members of the mystical Body of Christ, from age to age, were in the territory where each Gentile Church age was fulfilled; and Christ called them and gathered them through the messenger of each age.

And in the first age, where were they? In Asia Minor; in the second, they were in France (in the third…), they were in France, in that European territory; from there, the Message spread, and in different places there were seeds of God.

Then, for the third age, they were in Hungary and France; and there, God sent His messenger, through whom He called them and gathered them together.

Then, in the fourth age, they were in Ireland and Scotland, and God sent His messenger and gathered them; and from there, the Message spread to other places, where there were also some elect of God, wheat of God.

Then, in the fifth age, we find that God sent Luther, and the fifth age was being fulfilled in Germany; and through Luther, God called and gathered the elect of that age.

And then, in the sixth age, they were in England, and Wesley was sent there, and God called and gathered His elect; and from there, the Message spread to other nations too, where there were also elect and God called them.

But notice, under the ministry of Christ through these messengers, Christ has been calling and gathering the wheat, the children of the Kingdom, and there was a territory where the majority of God’s elect have been.

After having those six ages (the first in Asia Minor; and the second, third, fourth, fifth, and sixth ages in Europe), then He goes on to North America, where He sends His seventh angel-messenger, Rev. William Branham; and through him, He calls and gathers His elect; and the seventh stage or age of the Gentile Church is fulfilled in North America, where the majority of God’s elect were; from there, the Message spread to other nations, where there were also many elect, and they were gathered.

And now Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit goes on to Latin America and the Caribbean, calling and gathering His Latin American and Caribbean elect to complete the number of His elect, the number of His mystical Body of believers; and to bring all the saints of past ages to resurrection; and to bring about that resurrection in eternal bodies; and to bring the transformation of our bodies, and thus, for us to obtain an eternal body.

At this time, Christ is in Latin America and the Caribbean, calling and gathering the wheat, calling and gathering His elect at this Last Day.

The Age of the Cornerstone pertains to Latin America and the Caribbean, that is why the Latin American and Caribbean territory is the continent of the future, it is the one that has God’s blessing being manifested at this Last Day.

Although the Latin American and Caribbean people, for the most part, have not understood this, but a large number of Latin American and Caribbean people have understood it.

And where are the ones who have already understood it? Here we are, in Latin America and the Caribbean, thanking God for His love and His mercy for the Latin American and Caribbean people, and for putting in Latin America and the Caribbean His elect of the Last Day, of the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, to call them and gather them at this Last Day; and from Latin America and the Caribbean, the Message spreads to other continents, to call and gather all the elect who are in other continents.

We have reached the most glorious time of all times.

And now, since Christ has His elect of the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom in Latin America and the Caribbean, calling them and gathering them, and He has the ministry of the Last Day manifested in Latin America and the Caribbean: the Latin American and Caribbean territory is bringing forth good seed, bringing forth wheat, sons and daughters of God; and therefore, it has God’s blessing.

Saint Paul the Apostle says in his Letter to the Hebrews, chapter 6, verses 7 to 8:

“For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it, and bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed, receiveth blessing from God.”

The earth that receives blessing from God is the one that receives the rain and brings forth what? Herbs meet or useful herbs, good herbs: wheat.

And the rain is the Teaching Rain of the Word of God pertaining to the time in which one is given to live.

In each age, the Teaching Rain of Christ was received through the messenger of each age, and good fruit was brought forth by the earth, the territory, where the fulfillment of each age was carried out; that territory received blessings while it was bringing forth good fruit.

And now, which is the territory that brings forth good fruit, that brings forth sons and daughters of God at this Last Day, through the teaching, through the Divine Teaching Rain, through the Rain of the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, that former and latter Teaching?

Latin America is the territory that is bringing forth sons and daughters of God in the Kingdom of God, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, in the mystical Body of Jesus Christ; therefore, it is under God’s blessing, and therefore, it has the opportunity to go into the glorious Millennial Kingdom of Christ when that glorious Millennial Kingdom of Jesus Christ begins on this Earth; where Jesus Christ will sit on the Throne of David there in Israel, in the land of Israel, there in Jerusalem; and He will rule, reign, over the Hebrew people and over all nations.

And Latin America and the Caribbean will be the privileged territory which will enter into the glorious Millennial Kingdom of Christ, with the generation that will be present at this Last Day, seeing the fulfillment of the Divine Program pertaining to this Last Day, and it will be under the ministry of the Son of man through His Angel-Messenger, making known to us all these things which must shortly come to pass.

But the territories that bring forth tares, that bring forth children of the devil, children of the wicked one, the territories that don’t bring forth children of God, are under Divine Sentence; they will be (what?) burned, as the Prophet Malachi says in chapter 4:

“...Behold, the day cometh, that shall burn as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble: and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the Lord of hosts, that it shall leave them neither root nor branch.”

That is atomic fire, which will come upon the nations that are not bringing forth sons and daughters of God; because they won’t be producing what? They won’t be producing wheat, but instead, tares. And if they will be producing tares, they are nigh unto cursing, they are soon to be burned. It says:

“But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh unto cursing; whose end is to be burned.” (Hebrews chapter 6, verse 8, says so.)

Now notice what will come upon the tares regarding the Divine Judgment: it will be upon the territories, nations, and continents that won’t be producing sons and daughters of God at this Last Day.

So, we can see the Divine Program represented in this parable of the wheat and the tares; and we can see what a great blessing Latin America and the Caribbean have at this Last Day, which it has not fully understood, but it is already starting to understand.

And that is why it has been called, what? The New World. It has been called the New World for many centuries, without knowing that Latin America and the Caribbean is the continent that will enter into the glorious Millennial Kingdom of Christ and have the blessing of Jesus Christ.

So, we can see that Latin America and the Caribbean has a future, because its future is where? In Christ: in the Program of Christ, in the Kingdom of Christ, in that glorious Millennial Kingdom. And the elect: we will reign with Christ a thousand years and then for all eternity.

We have seen this MYSTERY OF THE WHEAT AND THE TARES.

Even though the human race is all mixed, and our mortal bodies are natural bodies (since the human being fell and has had to live in a natural body, and has received a spirit of the world), yet, through the new birth, we obtain the Spirit of Heaven, of God, of Paradise, of the sixth dimension, a theophanic spirit; and then we will receive an eternal body, and thus, we will also come into Eternal Life physically.

And now, where do we find the difference between the wheat and the tares? Where life is found, which is in the soul.

That is why the children of God have also come with this mortal and corruptible body, which is also the body that the tares have, but the soul is a wheat soul; and that is why he has the promise to have a wheat body too: a theophanic body that he receives when he is born again, and a physical and eternal body when Christ raises the dead in Christ and changes us who are alive.

And then we will not only have a wheat soul, but a theophanic wheat spirit too. And we already have it once we have believed in Christ as our Savior and we have received His Holy Spirit; and we will receive a physical wheat body too, which we will receive when we are changed.

So, let’s be attentive in these Last Days, because soon the resurrection of the dead in Christ and the transformation of us who are alive will take place.

All that’s left is for every soul of God, every wheat soul, to be called and gathered together at this Last Day, with the call of Christ that He is making at this Last Day, with the call of the Great Voice of Trumpet or Last Trumpet, calling and gathering His elect in Latin America and the Caribbean.

And if there is anyone who is in another nation or continent, the Message will reach him all the way where he is; because he will be called and gathered in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, in order to have his theophanic body and then have his physical and eternal body, which Christ has promised for every seed of God, for every wheat seed that has been sown on this Earth.

It has been a great blessing to be with you tonight, testifying to you about the wheat and the tares; and testifying to you that the earthly bodies which have that good wheat seed in them, and which have brought forth wheat… in other words, which have a soul that belongs to God, a soul of God, a son or a daughter of God there in their soul: are soon to be blessed and be changed at this Last Day, as good ground as individuals.

And the territory of Latin America and the Caribbean as a continent, as a territory, is the good ground where God’s sons and daughters would be, who would be called and gathered at this Last Day as the wheat of God, who would be called and gathered, with a Great Voice of Trumpet, under the ministry of the Angels of the Son of man.

It has been a privilege to be with you on this occasion, testifying to you about this MYSTERY OF THE WHEAT AND THE TARES.

There must also be some people in other nations who are wheat, but the majority are in Latin America and the Caribbean; let’s say, Latin America and the Caribbean has the “stock,” the stock of God’s wheat of the Last Day; just as the stock of God's wheat in each age was where? Well, in the territory where each age was fulfilled

So, Latin America and the Caribbean has been given the greatest blessing in the Divine Program at this Last Day.

And where are those sons and daughters of God, the wheat that would be called and gathered, that would be reaped at the Last Day? Here we are in Latin America and the Caribbean, being gathered and put in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, to be changed and raptured soon, when the very last elect of God comes in.

May the blessings of Jesus Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, be upon each one of you and also upon me. And soon may we all be changed and raptured at this Last Day, and taken to Heaven, to the House of our Heavenly Father, to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. In the Eternal Name of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
