Advent HOPE Sabbath School

Power of the Everlasting Gospel

Carlos Muñoz

The Final Conflict Vs The Remnant!

The presentation that I'm about to give is usually towards the end of this series.

What I would have done normally is next, I go into, I call it the old covenant in Sinai.

I have another 1 called the New Covenant, the Old Covenant on the cross.

And I just develop, go into those stories and go in depth.

But we don't have time, so I'm gonna go straight to the last presentation.

Typically the last presentation of the series when I do this, in this sense, and this is called, oh wait, there's my email.

In case somebody, I offered you Friday night the prayer and study plan, right?

Still there, I got a lot of emails this morning praise last night.

Bless your hearts If you want to learn more about this message of righteousness by faith, all right Email me and I will send you some resources to start to tickle your brain and start to get us to think I have a lot of great stuff amen in this and so I'm gonna I'll give it to you and you can start to read and you know and see how far you want to go with this but this is the message that God gave us in these end times, amen?

This message does not belong to me, my brothers and my sisters.

This message, well, I'll put it to you this way.

Some people say, come up to me and they say, nobody's done it today so far.

But they're like, Carlos, how come we haven't heard this before?

This is just me putting the puzzle together.

And I say, you know what this message is?

This is the message of righteousness by faith that Sister White says is the most precious message that was given to Jones and Wagner, right?

I'm just putting it in my own words, right?

But This is the message that is going to be proclaimed and to be given out to the world to prepare the world for what?

For the latter rain and for the end of this earth.

So, if you want more information, you can write to me and I can share all of this stuff with you.

And this presentation that is the final 1 is called the final conflict versus the remnant basically what I do with this presentation is I summarize it all put it together in 1 package and then we go goal or home run or slam whatever your preferred sport is everybody with me let's pray father we thank you as we come to our closing presentation, we just ask that your spirit be with us, guide us, direct us, strengthen us, Father, and continue to bless us through your word and through your spirit.

And more than anything, Thank you for Jesus Christ.

Him and the Spirit are the ones that make this possible.

So my brothers and my sisters, is this world falling apart?

If there's anything that anybody in our country can agree on, is that that's the case.

But anybody wherever you go is saying, this is going and wait for this next year.

If you thought this 2023 was crazy, wait to 2024, with everything that's going to be happening in 2024.

And so we see, my loved ones, how this world is unraveling.

Now, this was already foretold and prophesied to us in scripture.

When COVID came, COVID to many was a curse and to others was a blessing.

I'll be honest with you, I hope you don't feel offended, But COVID to me was a blessing.

Because I had been working 7 years nonstop, up and down, preaching all over the time, preaching every single day.

In Spanish churches, you don't preach 1 or 2 times.

You preach like 3 times on Sabbath, 4 times on Sabbath.

And I was just preaching and preaching and preaching and preaching and preaching and preaching and preaching and preaching.

And I was just, and God says like, Carlos, stop.

And it was a blessing because I was able to Reconnect and have that deep powerful devotional time and go back into the gym and start working out again because I was always, tika, tika, tika, tika, tika, tika.

You would never tell by the way I preach, right?

But 1 of the things that happened during COVID is that, you know, Zoom became popular.

I love it because the devil thought that it would through COVID, he was gonna break the church down.

And what he didn't know was that the church was going to grow.

And now it's all over the internet, right?

And 1 of the things that they would tell me is, hey, Carlos, can you come and do a Zoom meeting for us?

Now, instead of going places, I was just on Zoom all the time.

And 1 of the most common things that I was asked to talk about was the signs of the times.

Oh, Carlos, talk about the signs of the times, please.

Let's go to Matthew chapter 24, my brothers and my sisters, and let's go to the signs of the times.

This is what everybody wanted to hear about.

Signs of the times, signs of the times, where are we at?

This is the cool thing to talk about, signs of the times.

I don't know how many times I talked about the signs of the times, but then I noticed something because I was talking so much about the signs of the times, something that we were overlooking, something that we are not paying attention because we were so focused on the signs of the times that we forgot about why the signs of the times.

And it says, and you will hear of wars and rumors of wars, see that you are not troubled, for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not.

An Unwanted Guest: Jesus at the Door

Happy Sabbath and welcome to this weekend revival that we have been talking about for a long time.

Schedules and a number of issues, but praise the Lord that we are here together as we're going to be studying the topic of the power of the everlasting gospel, right?

So we're gonna be here tonight, tomorrow morning, 2 presentations, and then tomorrow afternoon, 2 more presentations.

But I warn you, it is not enough for this series.

I started it 2 years ago and now it's like, like 20 presentations.

So I'm going to give you a little snippet in regards to that.

But I want to start off with a little something here.

Because it looks like a carrot, smells like a carrot, probably if you bite it, it would taste like a carrot.

So recently, I came back from a number of travels with my wife, and when we got home, you know, you empty the refrigerator when you're going to be gone for a long time.

And 1 thing that I forgot to empty were carrots.

And so when I got into the house, and I opened the refrigerator, and I saw the carrots, guess what I found?

And I'm like, what is going on with my carrots?

And I'm like, Oh, what do you think my first thought was to do with these carrots?

Because normally when you see carrots like this, you think they're what?

They're spoiled, they're old, they're no good, right?

But I learned something a couple of years ago.

And what did I learn about carrots is that carrots can be revived.

What do I need to do to a carrot to revive it when it's all sloggy and mushy and weak?

And that's exactly what I did with this carrots from the same batch.

So carrots, you take carrots, don't throw them, now if they're brown or slimy, you throw them away.

Just soak them in water overnight, 24 hours, and carrots, what?

You can do the same thing with celery, you can do the same thing with lettuce, right?

The point is that carrots need water to be soaked in water to be what?

And so for revival to be Rehydrated, guess what we need?

And what is water a symbol of in the Bible?

Christ, the Holy Spirit, the latter rain, early rain.

And so if we're talking about revival this weekend, We're going to be talking about what about how to get rehydrated Amen how to get revived how to not look like a carrot Right because you looked at that carrot and it looks like a carrot But when you start to interact with the carrot you know that this is not a normal carrot.

Some of us act like Christians but when you start to interact with us it's like there's something wrong here.

This does not sound or act like a strong christian.

And so we are going to be talking about the topic of revival in that sense.

Now, why And who do you think specifically needs revival in these end times who specifically?

We do right the revival messages for us Why because God has called us to do a very special mission in these end times Amen God has raised up our church with this very special purpose of finishing the work of the Protestant Reformation.

And so for us to be able to fulfill it, why are we still hanging around 150 years later?

And so that message of how God is going to revive the church so that the church can fulfill its purpose or its mission is what is called the Laodicean Church.

Please go with me to revelation chapter 3.

Let's go to revelation chapter 3 Revelation chapter 3 is going to be our opening presentation for this revival weekend Revelation chapter 3 and when you're there say amen the message that the the Title of this presentation is called an unwanted guest jesus where Jesus at the door revelation chapter 3 Is everybody there?

Let's have a word of prayer heavenly father.

We thank you for the privilege for the blessing for the honor of coming here tonight We could be doing anything in any place anywhere right now, but we have chosen to come here.

And so that shows us that your Holy Spirit is working, that it is our desire, Father, to draw closer to you, to be revived, to see, Father, what are the things that in our life that are impeding us from growing closer to you, from fulfilling the purpose and the mission that you have for us both individually and corporately as your church in these end times And so we ask father for your blessing tonight For all those that are here for all those that will be hearing and for all those that are on their way father We ask for this blessing that you have promised to us through your everlasting covenant and we ask this in jesus name Amen, we're going to be talking about the everlasting covenant this weekend.

I'm already excited So revelation chapter 3 let's begin in verse number 14.

I have a full revival series on the Laodicean message but that's not what we're going to be doing this weekend.

It says, and to the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write these things says the amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God, right?

So the angel of the church of Laodicea, let's see what does an angel represent?

Messengers, yes, but who is the angel of the Laodicean church?

Who are the angels of the Laodicean church?

The pastors, the leaders, the teachers, the administrators the elders the sabbath school teachers mom and dad anybody that has a position in the church of influence Over somebody else you are the angel you are the messenger.

You are God's purpose messenger to what notice what it says about Jesus It says these things says the amen the faithful and true witness the beginning of the creation of God and that is who?

Jesus Christ is sending this message to the angel of the Laodicean.

Now the, amen, the faithful and true witness.

What is Jesus the faithful and true witness of?

What is he the faithful and true witness of?

He is the faithful and true witness of who God is.

I pray that the angels and God could be looking upon me and say Carlos is a true and faithful witness.

A false and lying witness to the character of God.

Jesus is the true and faithful witnesses calls him the beginning of creation that doesn't mean that he is the first created being of course not What it means is that He is the ark.

I know your works that you are neither cold nor hot.

The Everlasting Covenant Part 1

Welcome to another presentation of our revival series, The Power of the Everlasting Gospel.

And so if some of you remember, I think some of you do because some of you have mentioned it to me.

Last time I was here, which is I think a couple of years ago, I presented the first topic on this Series because it was the first sermon that I developed and then I continue to develop this series Which has developed as I mentioned it started off as A21 part then 3 part now It's like a 14 20 part and so and it's continuing to expand.

So again, I'm not gonna be able to cover all of it.

I'm actually struggling to see which presentation will be my last presentation this afternoon because I have so many.

We're going to talk about the Covenant this morning.

And then at 5 o'clock, I'm thinking the final conflict versus the remnant I have another presentation in regards to the sanctuary directly connected to the life of Jesus whatever it may be the case just come all right and then We'll have a Q&A at the end.

I love Q&A's and especially I'm sure you're gonna have questions Especially after listening to my presentation this morning and the 1 at 330 the covenants promise blessings because I'm going to Push you a little bit out of your comfort zone today in regards to the gospel and I say amen to that And so this morning the 2 presentations that I will be presenting is 1 presentation.

It is called the everlasting Covenants, let's have a word of prayer Heavenly Father.

Thank you for the blessing for the privilege again for a beautiful day of life for a beautiful time to come together.

And this is not any day but this is your Sabbath day, the day that you separated for us to come together and spend this quality time celebrating that you are our God and that we are your children.

Spend quality time with our brothers and sisters in the faith and spend quality time in ministering to our communities.

So we thank you fathers we open the Word of God and we feast on it we ask you that your Spirit be with us and guide us in Jesus' name.

Raise your hand if you were here last night.

The ones that were not, that's okay, I forgive you.

Yeah, so a number of years ago it was proposed there was a proposal in the United States Congress in regards to giving every baby born in the United States $20, 000.

Basically what the proposal was is that the government will give every child born in the United States a bank account with $20, 000.

And so The reason or the logic behind this is because what is the number 1 debt in the United States?

And so, we know, and statistics and history teach very clearly, that the way to get people out of poverty is through what?

Education is what helps people to move up and get out of poverty, and so of course, to break what is known as generational poverty.

And so the United States Congress, This has been debated.

It was not approved, but it was debated and it would not surprise me that we might see something like this in the future.

Where the idea is that you give a child a bank account with $20, 000 and of course what's going to happen to that money over...

And so that child when they become 18, what's going to happen?

They're going to probably have a good chunk of money, hopefully a 6 digit figure, where they can choose to take that money and go to university, which is probably about what a four-year degree costs today, like $100, 000, right?

The idea is to break with generational poverty because Education is becoming too Far attainable for people now that is what the government has planned, and this is done in a number of other countries.

But I propose to you that God has a much better plan.

God has a much better plan than trying to solve the problems of poverty on this earth.

While poverty is a problem, poverty is not the main problem.

And today we're going to talk about how God is going to solve not the problem of generational poverty, but we're going to talk about how God is going to solve the problem of sin.

And so, you open your Bibles to me, Revelation chapter 14, verse 6.

It's a verse that we probably all know very, very well.

And, like most of us, we can read it off the top of our heads And it said a nice sun angel flying in the midst of heaven having what the?

Everlasting gospel to preach to those who dwell on the earth to every nation tribe tongue and People right?

This is what the ever lasting the everlasting what The everlasting gospel right now last time I was with you.

I spoke and I remember specifically talking about that most of us think that the first The 3 angels message is the everlasting gospel And I have an issue with that And you're like, what do you mean the ever the 3 angels message is not the everlasting gospel I'll give you an example the first angel's message fear god And give glory to him for the hour of his judgment has come and worship him who created the heavens the earth to see in The springs of the water when was the first angels message preached?

Historically 1840s the Millerite movement, right?

That's when the first angels message was preached Everlasting gospel.

Divine origin because only God is divine.

So the everlasting gospel, we're going to see, it precedes the 3 angels message amen now don't get me wrong the 3 angels message is part of the everlasting gospel and what the way I explain it to be clear because some of you might be thinking I'm a heretic if you did not hear me explain this last time, is that the 3 Angels message is the last phase or the last part of the everlasting gospel.

We like to limit the everlasting gospel to the 3 angels message and when we do that we are doing a disservice to The everlasting gospel.

Amen so to be clear So nobody goes around saying carlos is saying that the 3 angels message is not the everlasting gospel because there's always somebody that wants to listen to things the way they want to listen to it.

I am NOT saying that the 3 angels message is not part of the everlasting gospel.

It's the last phase or the last part of that message that is to be proclaimed here on earth.

I'm just saying that it is not the totality of it and that's what we're going to be talking about today this morning.

Now as I told you last night my background is in law and in in criminology and also in education and so when I come across concepts I need to break it down.

I need to break it down in bread and butter because I was an elementary school teacher and 1 of the beauties about teaching elementary School teachers that sometimes we adults we just we think over and we forget that these little ones they don't know And so we have to break things down in digestible pieces Amen, so I'm always breaking down concepts and I do this with the Bible to digestible things not only for me to explain to understand it but for me to be able to explain it because if we don't understand it is there a problem when we misunderstand things that God says oh yes because my people perish for a lack of so I've developed this everlasting gospel conceptual map, alright?

I'm going to give you half this morning and the second half I'm going to give you this afternoon.

I developed this map of how to understand the everlasting gospel because sadly we limit the everlasting gospel in many ways.

And so of course you have number 1, the everlasting gospel.

Again, if it's everlasting, what does this imply?

It's eternal from ways past into the ways future forever now the word gospel we all know means what the Good news, right?

So the good news now, here's the question and this is the topic that I talked about last time I was here, which ignited or initiated that I would come back to do this revival weekend series.

Because you ask many Christians what the gospel is, and they give you many different answers.

The gospel is the high priest ministry of Jesus.

And all those things are correct, don't get me wrong.

But when we are to talk about the gospel, we are to be and to give a concise precise answer We must be biblical very concisely in that and again, I'm not saying that any of those things are not they all part of the gospel But do we have a concise precise definition to what the gospel is?

The Everlasting Covenant Part 2

It's like, I guess you start off strong and then you kind of wean out.

And then like last night it was like, Maranatha.

For those that are here, never heard me before, my name is Carlos Munoz.

I am the Afco director for amazing facts ministries international ministries and Associate speaker bilingual speaker been with Amazing Facts for 10 years.

I converted 15 years ago from an atheist to Christian.

I went to AFCO in 2013, 10-year anniversary.

Right there I was started as an evangelism for 5 years and I've been Directing the afco program amazing fact center evangelism for those of you.

Where we want People that I love the Lord that are on fire for the Lord, and that want to serve Him and dedicate their lives to working for Him, to come to AAFCO.

And what we do is we train you in the foundational aspects of personal evangelism, how to give Bible studies, right?

Because that is foundational across all ministries.

And then we give you the full spectrum of different ministries that you can go into.

Canvassing literature, medical missionary.

We just show you the whole gambit so that you can find where it is through those 3 months where God wants to place you and where you want to serve the Lord.

And if not, go back to your your church, your local church, that's perfectly fine.

We train you so that also that you can reproduce or replicate what you learned in your local church and convert it into a mission center too, into an AFCO to go.

So a number of students here from AFCO we also have the Europe AFCO Joaquin raise your hand over there brother right so you know somebody that lives in our in Europe Sweden they also have started second year right second third year third year AFCO Europe And so praise the Lord for that blessing.

And so we are going to continue into our presentation of what?

Thank you father for Also all of us singing that beautiful song in the garden because that's where you are waiting for us every morning and during all the day You're there Wanting Father to have that intimate connection intimate walk intimate relationship with us as we studied last night Sadly some of us have kept you at the door And so we thank you because it is through that relationship that we see your grace your righteousness your love your mercy that we are transformed and contemplate our own selfishness in that light.

And so as we talk about these things, Father, we ask a blessing and that your Spirit be with us and guide us and strengthen us, Father.

If there's any disturbing spirit, Father, that is trying to create confusion, distortion here, we ask that your Spirit, in the name of Jesus Christ, kick him out and that we can dwell in your presence, in your glory.

So this morning we were talking about, right, how I've been studying this concept of the everlasting gospel, and I've developed this conceptual map on the everlasting gospel.

Today, this morning, I'm giving you half of it.

3.30, I'm going to give you the second part of it.

So we have 2 presentations in the afternoon and again I don't have enough time to cover all of this so maybe I'll have to come back another time.

I think it's like 2 years since last time I started presenting on these topics and so this is just an amazing topic.

It just goes deeper and deeper and deeper and so we saw that the everlasting gospel the good news is the good news of what of the the plan of salvation amen that god has before because it's everlasting implying that this good news comes from before, right, and we'll talk about that today, the plan of salvation.

Now the plan of salvation to save us from what?

And this morning we talked about sin, and from 3 different angles, but in the context of what we're studying here, we're talking about the 3 dimensions of sin, which is what?
