  1. And sent His servant at suppertime to say to

  2. those who were invited, come for all things are

  3. now ready. But they all with one accord began

  4. to make excuses. The first said to him, I have

  5. bought a piece of ground. And I must go and see

  6. it and I ask that you have me excused. and another

  7. said i have bought five yoke of oxen and i'm

  8. going to test them i asked that you have me excuse

  9. the banquet was prepared for them still another

  10. said i have married a wife and therefore i cannot

  11. come so that servant came and reported to his

  12. these things to his master than the master of

  13. the house he says go out quickly into the streets

  14. and lanes of the city and bring in here the poor

  15. and the maimed and the lame and the blind if

  16. this first group is not interested I'm going

  17. to give you another group so that you can go

  18. see, look for. Because the table is ready. And

  19. I want my house to be filled. I'm speaking in

  20. the field of the Lord. Jesus reveals the condition

  21. of his own people. This isn't for those that

  22. are not only for the person that is lost, but

  23. also those that are in home at the house. Please

  24. see my heart. I'm not targeting anyone. I'm not

  25. attacking anyone. I'm exposing the Word of God,

  26. the Scripture. So that the fear of the Lord may

  27. come upon us. Because many presented excuses.

  28. But there's one reality that the Scripture speaks

  29. about. He begins speaking of the wedding. And

  30. then he speaks about what this banquet is. Let

  31. me show you two realities. Maybe three. I'm going

  32. to show you two. The reality of what's going

  33. to happen before the bridegroom comes to seek

  34. his wife, his bride. Matthew 22, Matthew 24,

    Matthew 24:12

  35. verse 12. Quickly, let's go there. What does

  36. the scripture say? Matthew 24, 12 says, and this

  37. is Jesus speaking of the end times. Jesus speaking

  38. of the signs before the end. says and because

  39. lawlessness will bound the love of many will

  40. grow cold we're gonna be wrong okay we're gonna

  41. be real the love of who the world doesn't know

  42. love because it isn't until you know Jesus Christ

  43. is when you know real love true love is found

  44. in a person that's named Jesus Christ and when

  45. you know Jesus And that's when you really know

  46. love. And Jesus says, because lawlessness has

  47. multiplied. The love of many will grow cold.

  48. What love is he talking about? He's talking about

  49. that first love. That is a sign. of something

  50. that's coming or already happening in the body

  51. for which you and I have to be aware. If we know

  52. that scripture and we know that it's for the

  53. end times, or the final, yeah, the end times.

  54. with a greater reason you should keep your first

  55. love you should cultivate that first love you

  56. should walk making sure that that first love

  57. doesn't it doesn't quench because that word was

  58. not for the world the love of many will grow

  59. cold was not for the world because the world

  60. doesn't know love the love of many will grow

  61. cold is for the children of the house for those

  62. that know Jesus for those that know God That's

  63. one sign. Let's go to 2 Thessalonians. Chapter

    2 Thessalonians 2 chapter mention

  64. 2. I'm going to show you another sign. We're

  65. going to read verse 1. Os rogamos hermanos, versículo

  66. 2, que no os dejéis mover fácilmente de vuestro

  67. modo de pensar. Ni os contrabeis, ni por espíritu,

  68. ni por palabra, ni por carta, como si fuera nuestra,

  69. en el sentido de que el día del Señor se acerca.

  70. Versículo 3, nadie nos engañe en ninguna manera.

  71. Porque no vendrá sin que antes venga la apostasia

  72. Y se manifiesta el hombre de pecado el hijo de

  73. perdición Now brethren concerning the coming

  74. of our Lord Jesus Christ and our gathering together

  75. for him We ask you not to be soon shaken in mind

  76. or troubled Neither by spirit or by word or by

  77. letter as it from us as though the day of Christ

  78. had come Let no one deceive you by any means

  79. for that day will not come Unless the falling

  80. away comes first and the man of sin is revealed

  81. and the son of perdition can not in or singanya

  82. Let no one deceive you. But before Christ comes,

  83. apostasy will come. Do you know what apostasy

  84. means? The traditional translation is the falling

  85. away. but the root of the word apostasy the fear

  86. of the lord came to me when i said it the root

  87. the root word of that the root word of that word

  88. means of apostasy it means divorce it means repugnant

  89. the word repugnant means to reuse and fulfill

  90. an agreement to not want to fulfill an agreement

  91. or an obligation or a debt apostasy when it hits

  92. it makes you divorce God renunciar. You renounce.

  93. Tu union con el. Your union with him. Tu compromiso

  94. con el. Your covenant with him. Your commitment

  95. with him. Your commitment with him. Tu pacto

  96. con el. Your covenant with him. Dejeme darle

  97. sabiduria. Let me give you wisdom. La iglesia

  98. ya está desposada. The church has already been

  99. betrothed. When you are betrothed, it means that

  100. you already belong to someone. You've already

  101. gotten married because of the covenant of a word.

  102. The church is already married. He already has

  103. his bride. Whether you understand it or not,

  104. he says, you are mine. You are mine. You belong

  105. to me. I chose you out of many. I chose you.

  106. And in Matthew 24 it says, the love of many.

  107. of the bride will grow cold. And in Thessalonians

  108. it says, do not be deceived, because before he

  109. comes, apostasy will enter. And people will live

  110. as if they were divorced from God. That's why

  111. it's called the great falling away. But the spirit

  112. of the Lord, he is calling the bride. He wants

  113. to show you to walk with him. He wants to show

  114. you to abide in first love. To remain in first

  115. love and he's the spirit of truth. He will take

  116. you to all righteousness and all truth. The committed

  117. bride will not be deceived. Let me say that again.

  118. The committed bride will not be deceived. It

  119. will burn for Christ. She will prepare for Christ.

  120. The book of Revelation says, rejoice. Because

  121. the bride has prepared herself for the bridegroom.

  122. The church. The body of Christ. I'm not speaking

  123. of burning life, of burning lamp. I'm speaking

  124. of the body of Christ. has straight away has

  125. departed for some the following of the holy spirit

  126. has become an inconvenience for others The following

  127. of the Holy Spirit has become their source of

  128. life. There's a grace in that so that the following

  129. of the Holy Spirit can become our source. The

  130. mature children of the Lord are guided by the

  131. Spirit. Another translation says the mature children

  132. of God are moved by the impulses of the Spirit.

  133. And the spirit of the Lord is jealous for us.

  134. And our responsibility is to tell him, yes. So

  135. the first group, there was three excuses. I have

  136. to take care of the ground. I have to take care

  137. of my business because I've bought oxen have

  138. to test them and then the third person gives

  139. an excuse that they just got married so this

  140. is the person that doesn't know how to balance

  141. church and family but i'm not going to go there

  142. because i want to involve myself in the second

  143. group this is where i see the lord taking us

  144. Versículo 21 verse 21 So that servant came and

  145. reported these things to this master. Then the

  146. master of the house, being angry, said to his

  147. servant, go out quickly into the streets and

  148. lanes of the city and bring in here the poor

  149. and the maimed and the lame and the blind. Say

  150. with me the second group. Say with me the second

  151. group. 15 years ago, I gathered with this group.

  152. The ones that were in debt. The ones that were

  153. fearful. The ones that didn't have anything.

  154. Fifteen years ago, in a small house of peace,

  155. I gathered with the valiant ones of David. Those

  156. that were in debt. Those that didn't have anything.

  157. Those that were fearful. The blind. The lame.

  158. The ones that no one wants. The ones that the

  159. others don't care about, I am part of that second

  160. group. I belong to that second group. The one

  161. that no one cares about. The one that no one

  162. gets a penny for. The ones where... would just

  163. go above them, but the Lord, because of his instructions,

  164. he went and seeked that second group. I don't

  165. know what group you're in, but from that first

  166. group, they didn't appreciate what the Lord had

  167. given them. They left their commitment. They

  168. didn't seek anymore. They had excuses, but there's

  169. always a second group that loves the Lord, that

  170. seeks the Lord, that desires the Lord, that has

  171. been unappreciated, that no one gave them a penny.

  172. That's who I was. I was the smallest in my brothers.

  173. And the Lord always lifts up a second group.

  174. And the scripture speaks about a Third group.

  175. Because that second group still didn't fill the

  176. house. Verse 22. And the servant said, Master,

  177. it is done as you commanded, and still there

  178. is room. Then the master said to the servant,

  179. go out to the highways and the hedges and compel

  180. them to come in, that my house may be filled.

  181. For I say to you that none of those men who were

  182. invited shall taste my supper. If you see the

  183. scriptures, the Lord always has a second group.

  184. When he went to go look for David, the first

  185. group was Saul. And when he came to the house

  186. of Jesse, the first group, his father thought

  187. it was his other children. There was a third.

  188. There was a second group that was hidden past

  189. the shepherding the lambs. The woman at the well.

  190. That's part of the second group. She was unappreciated.

  191. The one that the people said she was an adulterer.

  192. That the religious would point their fingers

  193. and judge her. But Jesus. And they came to the

  194. feet of Christ. And then Solomon was a child

  195. of adultery, a second group. David could have

  196. chosen any of his children, but he chose Solomon

  197. from the second group. I don't know who I'm talking

  198. to today. that are part of that second group.

  199. Because in your heart, it hasn't grown. It hasn't

  200. hearted towards him because the spirit of the

  201. Lord keeps giving you invitations. The invitations

  202. to the wedding are being given out. Come to the

  203. wedding. Come to the table. Come to the banquet.

  204. Come to the banquet. Come to prepare yourself.

  205. It has your name. It has the date. And he says,

  206. come in. You have access. Come and prepare yourself.

  207. You are the bride. You are choice. I come to

  208. speak to you to those that were probably not

  209. on that first list 15 years ago I told the pastors

  210. I know that I'm not the first person that got

  211. called to this city I know that God called But

  212. there were some crazy people in Miami that fell

  213. in love with this city. And they said, yes, Lord.

  214. I know that they weren't the first group. They

  215. were those that were in debt. They were from

  216. those that were in dread. They were the ones

  217. that were there with fear. But then at the end,

  218. they were the ones that are from the brain. They're

  219. the ones that are before the giants. Not because

  220. of me, but because of God. Tell me who you join

  221. yourself with and I'll tell you. And I can tell

  222. you that I'm with a giant killer. I'm with one

  223. that conquers Nations and I walk with one that

  224. nothing's impossible for him. I walk with one

  225. that has all the power, all authority. You don't

  226. just come to church. There's a banquet. Because

  227. what I've noticed is that those of you that are

  228. from the second group, they yell differently

  229. from the first group. Those that are from that

  230. second group serve differently from that first

  231. group. Those that are from that second group

  232. give differently from the first group. Those

  233. that are from the second group dance differently

  234. from the first group. Those of the second group...

  235. Love differently from the first group because

  236. they understand that they have been forgiven

  237. so much. The person that has been forgiven so

  238. much loves a lot. That's why I don't love halfway.

  239. You don't see me loving one person another way

  240. and unappreciating the other one. I know where

  241. God took me out. I know where he kept me out

  242. from. I know of those nights that I would go

  243. and I was afflicted. when I was abused when I

  244. was young. And from where he took me out of.

  245. How am I not going to love him? How am I not

  246. gonna love him halfway? How am I going to love

  247. him halfway? How will I love him halfway? I can't.

  248. And I speak to those that are here. How do I

  249. know that you're of the second group? How many

  250. of you are gentle? If you are gentle, you're

  251. a gentile, you're not Jewish. How many of you

  252. are not Jewish? Then you are from that second

  253. group. Because he came to his own. And his own

  254. didn't even recognize him. But he had a greater

  255. heart to seek those that were not Jewish. The

  256. Father is completely determined to bring you

  257. to Him. The bridegroom is completely in love

  258. with you. And he tells you, get married with

  259. me again. Have commitment with me again. I wanna

  260. pass eternity with you. Nothing that we have.

  261. Sorry, let's go back to the first group. Why

  262. couldn't they come? Because now they acquired

  263. things. They have land. They have businesses.

  264. They got married. And they have a bigger family.

  265. Everything's a blessing of the Lord. But everything's

  266. from His grace. The Lord is inviting us. Come

  267. to the banquet. Is those that change the world?

  268. Lift up your hands. Say Lord Jesus. Thank you

  269. for coming. Thank you for forgiving me. Thank

  270. you for loving me. Thank you for taking me out

  271. of where you took me out of. Thank you for blessing

  272. me the way that you've blessed me. Tell him Lord,

  273. let the love that you have for me never grow

  274. cold. Lord, free me from being deceived. Deliver

  275. me, Lord, from entering into apostasy. Lord,

  276. awaken me. Awaken my heart. Awaken my spirit.

  277. Towards you. That I may seek you. That I may

  278. run towards you. That I may come close to your

  279. table. With an unveiled face. Can this word offend?

  280. Yes, of course. But if the heart is right, it

  281. will not offend you. It will provoke you to seek

  282. of the Lord, to run towards the Lord. It's a

  283. word of warning. Every eye closed, I'm gonna

  284. make a call. At the count of three, if you can

  285. tell me, I identify myself. I am part of that

  286. second group. It was very hard, but I am part

  287. of that second group. And I understand that the

  288. Lord has called me. Or maybe you say, I'm part

  289. of that third group. at the count of three. There's

  290. a grace that's gonna come upon you. If this is

  291. you, stand to your feet. One, two, three. Lift

  292. up your hands.
