00:10.320 --> 00:12.260
Welcome to the Preach the Word broadcast.

00:12.760 --> 00:17.180
It gives us a great deal of pleasure to
come to you with the preaching of the Word

00:17.180 --> 00:21.900
and the truth and the enlightenment of the
Holy Spirit as he operates through his

00:21.900 --> 00:22.500
written Word.

00:23.120 --> 00:27.320
We thank God today again that we have with
us Dr. Alberto Rivera.

00:27.780 --> 00:28.640
Thank you again.

00:29.000 --> 00:34.340
You have been preaching through this part
of the country in the Washington area.

00:34.600 --> 00:35.220
That's correct.

00:35.380 --> 00:42.080
In Winchester and our people are
splendidly pleased with your testimony and

00:42.080 --> 00:42.680
your message.

00:42.980 --> 00:43.260
Thank you.

00:43.400 --> 00:45.460
I've been blessed to be among yourself.

00:45.680 --> 00:50.820
I've been blessed to visit your church and
visit your people and visit the

00:50.820 --> 00:51.280
Christians.

00:51.920 --> 00:57.860
And I've been blessed above all in seeing
so many Roman Catholics turning to the

00:57.860 --> 01:01.920
gospel of Jesus Christ and to Christ
himself as the Lord and Savior.

01:02.500 --> 01:07.800
I've been blessed tremendously in this
area, Silver Spring, Tacoma Park,

01:08.020 --> 01:11.960
Washington, D.C., and many of the areas
where the Lord has brought me,

01:12.120 --> 01:17.180
even Winchester now as we've been going
around Virginia.

01:17.660 --> 01:24.220
Then I will say this, that I live in this
area with a lot of sadness, not only joy.

01:24.340 --> 01:28.940
That is a paradox in my heart right now
because I have learned to love quickly.

01:29.520 --> 01:35.140
I have learned to love you, to love the
Christians and the brothers and sisters

01:35.140 --> 01:41.400
that have prayed for us and support us and
be so faithful to Christ and to his

01:41.400 --> 01:42.200
teachings.

01:42.480 --> 01:42.520
Yes.

01:42.560 --> 01:44.360
It is mutual, likewise.

01:44.680 --> 01:46.280
I would like to say something else.

01:46.400 --> 01:53.560
I would like to invite our audience in
order to be more informed, fully informed

01:53.560 --> 01:59.020
of many of the areas between Catholicism
and Christianity that they can write to me

01:59.020 --> 01:59.480
personally.

01:59.660 --> 02:01.380
They can even call me over the phone.

02:01.860 --> 02:09.920
And they can even request videos and tapes
and books that will give more information

02:09.920 --> 02:14.900
on the different subjects that we are
talking about during these different

02:14.900 --> 02:15.500
programs.

02:15.720 --> 02:21.360
I would like for them to have as much as
you can have, and I'm sure that you will

02:21.360 --> 02:29.460
be satisfied and blessed in getting to
these different testimonies of so many

02:29.460 --> 02:35.640
different converted Roman Catholic
priests, converted Roman Catholic nuns and

02:35.640 --> 02:38.160
monks and even bishops, Roman Catholic
bishops.

02:38.580 --> 02:44.620
Recently we have among our ministry two
bishops that are being converted to the

02:44.620 --> 02:45.860
gospel of Jesus Christ.

02:46.340 --> 02:46.440
Yes.

02:46.600 --> 02:48.060
We rejoice at these victories.

02:48.480 --> 02:54.420
For those of you who were not with us in
the first two broadcasts, Dr. Alberto

02:54.420 --> 02:59.340
Rivera is a converted Jesuit priest from
Rome to Jesus Christ.

02:59.600 --> 03:05.320
He read himself, like Alexander Campbell
and his father Thomas Campbell,

03:05.720 --> 03:10.320
read himself just by reading the Bible
into the light of New Testament

03:10.320 --> 03:11.080
Christianity.

03:11.460 --> 03:18.000
Today he is a born again New Testament
Christian, has been immersed into Jesus

03:18.000 --> 03:22.820
Christ for forgiveness of sins,
and is a partaker of the communion with

03:22.820 --> 03:28.440
God both in spirit and in the Lord's
Supper, and today is just on fire for

03:28.440 --> 03:30.480
Christ, blazing the trail for Jesus
Christ.

03:31.020 --> 03:37.660
And it is our privilege to be in the
company and the companionship and to have

03:37.660 --> 03:42.720
an ally such as Dr. Rivera on the front
lines for Jesus Christ in this world

03:42.720 --> 03:43.160
today.

03:43.300 --> 03:43.300
Thank you.

03:43.300 --> 03:43.880
Most grateful.

03:44.060 --> 03:45.100
There is so much darkness.

03:45.680 --> 03:45.820
Yes.

03:46.020 --> 03:51.940
Now, we mentioned that the early church
corrupted very quickly.

03:52.520 --> 03:53.480
It was a miracle.

03:53.600 --> 03:54.740
I will say this.

03:54.860 --> 03:56.000
I will say this.

03:56.080 --> 04:01.460
If you allow me, and I'm sure you will
agree with me biblically, you are a very

04:01.460 --> 04:08.080
biblical minded believer as an evangelist
of the gospel of Jesus Christ,

04:08.300 --> 04:14.040
you will understand that in my experience
in the past as a Jesuit priest,

04:14.420 --> 04:20.300
I always conceived that the Roman Catholic
institution was the only church,

04:20.400 --> 04:21.580
it was the church of Christ.

04:21.680 --> 04:26.040
Then I was very disappointed when I
discovered through the pages of the

04:26.040 --> 04:31.200
scripture and through the teachings of the
apostles that Rome and her teachings have

04:31.200 --> 04:35.780
nothing to do, not with the church of
Christ, not with the teachings of Christ,

04:36.200 --> 04:37.700
not with the doctrines of the apostles.

04:38.280 --> 04:39.140
Now, that was shocking.

04:39.360 --> 04:40.320
That was devastating.

04:40.700 --> 04:46.560
But nevertheless, it was fulfilling
because finally it became my decision to

04:46.560 --> 04:53.940
acknowledge Christ as my personal Savior
and Lord and being obedient to his

04:53.940 --> 04:54.260
teachings.

04:54.700 --> 04:58.840
I began to be baptized as I was baptized
by mercy.

04:59.200 --> 05:00.900
My sins were forgiven.

05:01.740 --> 05:04.980
My life was blessed with the presence of
the Holy Spirit.

05:05.280 --> 05:09.080
And I became now a preacher of the gospel
of Jesus Christ.

05:09.460 --> 05:14.940
Now, all the things that tell me already
that the early church actually,

05:15.340 --> 05:16.180
it developed.

05:16.820 --> 05:21.360
But always I want to clear in the minds of
Christians that were never Catholic

05:21.360 --> 05:21.840
before.

05:22.140 --> 05:24.180
Maybe they were born in Christian homes.

05:24.740 --> 05:30.400
I want to clear for every Christian born
in a Christian home that Catholicism,

05:31.960 --> 05:34.220
Roman Catholicism, never was a Christian
church.

05:34.980 --> 05:40.220
That Catholicism came out from the
Christian church, not as a church.

05:40.680 --> 05:46.460
It came out as individuals, people,
but not as a church.

05:46.600 --> 05:47.440
I see.

05:48.240 --> 05:48.660
Babylon.

05:48.860 --> 05:49.360
That is.

05:49.900 --> 05:50.920
Informed Babylon.

05:51.080 --> 05:52.300
It became Babylon.

05:52.600 --> 05:57.900
The individuals that among them you have
many or I would say almost every so-called

05:57.900 --> 06:02.160
early fathers because in the readings,
in their readings, they were the

06:02.160 --> 06:08.180
originators of most of the heresies and
perversions of the gospel that Catholicism

06:08.180 --> 06:11.280
embraced officially later in their
councils.

06:11.680 --> 06:11.860
Yes.

06:12.280 --> 06:16.020
Do you see this prediction in 1 Timothy 4?

06:16.340 --> 06:16.800
Yes.

06:17.840 --> 06:25.800
You know, it's so clear that it almost
sounds as if it's a graphic, word by word,

06:25.920 --> 06:27.140
blow by blow description.

06:27.400 --> 06:28.860
A very dramatic description.

06:29.020 --> 06:29.600
That is correct.

06:29.760 --> 06:30.120
Yes, sir.

06:30.360 --> 06:31.700
Of what you're talking about.

06:32.380 --> 06:33.780
Would you want to read that for us?

06:33.800 --> 06:34.160
Yes.

06:34.320 --> 06:35.240
1 Timothy, yes.

06:35.240 --> 06:37.560
1 Timothy 4, 1 through 4.

06:37.900 --> 06:43.660
This says, Now the spirit speak especially
that in the later times some shall depart

06:43.660 --> 06:48.600
from the faith, giving heed to seducing
spirits and doctrines of devils,

06:49.060 --> 06:54.260
speaking lies and hypocrisy, having their
consents seared with hot iron,

06:54.640 --> 07:00.500
forbidden to marry, and commanding to
abstain from meat which God has created to

07:00.500 --> 07:04.800
be received with thanksgiving of them
which believe and know the truth.

07:04.800 --> 07:05.540
Definitely.

07:05.880 --> 07:06.840
It's Catholicism here.

07:07.340 --> 07:07.880
Yes.

07:07.940 --> 07:08.580
It's celibacy.

07:12.860 --> 07:21.580
Now, God, being God, knowing everything
that would happen, he wanted to warn the

07:21.580 --> 07:24.460
congregation, the church, as to what would
happen.

07:24.460 --> 07:25.880
And the dangers coming, yes.

07:26.120 --> 07:32.900
Now, there are people who feel like that
if you're a preacher, you ought not

07:32.900 --> 07:33.860
disturb people.

07:33.860 --> 07:36.060
You ought not to upset the apple cart.

07:36.180 --> 07:41.980
You ought not to delve into things that
make people uncomfortable, especially

07:41.980 --> 07:49.600
talking about a religion that at one time
was Christian, fell away, that are

07:49.600 --> 07:55.240
actually teaching doctrines of devils,
are seducing spirits, and that they're

07:55.240 --> 08:00.060
liars, they're hypocrites, and their
conscience, not only can they lie,

08:00.120 --> 08:04.120
but they don't even have a feeling because
their conscience were, as it were,

08:04.380 --> 08:05.820
sealed with a hot iron.

08:06.260 --> 08:08.740
Now, I will even say this much.

08:09.600 --> 08:15.420
The people that were among the Christians,
you know, pausing as Christians,

08:15.980 --> 08:20.040
because actually that is what happened
today in reverse direction.

08:20.380 --> 08:24.960
And reverse direction in these last days
is happening already.

08:25.320 --> 08:30.360
There are people inside the church,
inside the Christian church, pausing as

08:30.360 --> 08:36.340
Christian without never have, never,
never have any personal experience of

08:36.340 --> 08:38.500
redemption through Jesus Christ.

08:39.340 --> 08:43.920
That means that today we are confronting
almost the same situation.

08:44.440 --> 08:50.820
I walk into many places as I walk out of
the Roman Catholic institution,

08:51.380 --> 08:55.000
and I found out myself, as a matter of
fact, even before I became a Christian,

08:55.160 --> 09:00.760
being a Jesuit priest, I walk into many
churches, there are so-called Christian

09:00.760 --> 09:08.140
churches, and I walk into, and they will
embrace me as a brother in Christ,

09:08.380 --> 09:09.940
being a Jesuit priest.

09:10.880 --> 09:16.500
Now that is how confusing the situation is
between religion and Christianity.

09:16.820 --> 09:19.480
And the Bible is very clear in this
matter.

09:20.060 --> 09:23.760
It sets a difference between Christianity
and religion.

09:24.480 --> 09:34.580
Now, when you expose Babylon, and expose
this false religion, what you are really

09:34.580 --> 09:38.400
doing is shedding light upon Jerusalem,
instead of Rome.

09:38.540 --> 09:42.520
You are bringing people back, this is what
we use the word restoration, trying to

09:42.520 --> 09:44.760
restore what the early church did.

09:44.760 --> 09:49.720
Now, if people feel this is not a valid
ministry, brothers and sisters,

09:50.300 --> 09:58.100
if you feel that this is too, perhaps,
this man has hate in his heart,

09:58.220 --> 10:03.840
or that he is a belligerent person,
or that he is using religion as a whipping

10:03.840 --> 10:08.600
post, I want you to remember what it says
here, in verse 6.

10:08.600 --> 10:15.640
If you put the brethren in remembrance of
these things, you shall be a good minister

10:15.640 --> 10:16.580
of Jesus Christ.

10:17.280 --> 10:22.160
Now, no one in the Roman church can stand
in judgment and say no one tried to warn

10:22.160 --> 10:22.420
us.

10:22.760 --> 10:27.680
No one cared enough about us to alarm us
as to the darkness.

10:28.960 --> 10:31.700
For instance, the mass, you mentioned the
mass.

10:31.700 --> 10:37.660
It said that one of the things that
Babylon would do, would be to change and

10:37.660 --> 10:42.400
corrupt the original fellowship of the
Christians.

10:42.800 --> 10:47.200
Now, we look at the Lord's Supper,
drinking the grape juice, which is fruit

10:47.200 --> 10:52.820
of the vine, not brandy or gin or vodka,
and simple unleavened bread to remember.

10:52.920 --> 10:54.900
It's the only thing Jesus asked us to do,
to remember Him.

10:54.900 --> 10:56.780
The only thing He said.

10:57.000 --> 10:57.980
In my memory.

10:58.360 --> 10:59.440
In his memory.

10:59.700 --> 11:00.020
In his memory.

11:00.020 --> 11:02.720
And that, in the hand of Jesus,
was a beautiful ceremony.

11:02.980 --> 11:04.620
But the mass is different.

11:05.100 --> 11:10.420
For instance, let me briefly state what
the meaning of the mass is.

11:10.500 --> 11:15.880
According to Catholic dogma, not according
to your opinion or someone else's opinion,

11:16.080 --> 11:21.420
not even of the liberal Catholic mind,
but according to Catholic dogma,

11:21.900 --> 11:27.200
the mass is the repetition of the
sacrifice of the person of Jesus Christ.

11:27.320 --> 11:28.160
The repetition.

11:28.600 --> 11:34.060
The Council of Trent makes this doctrine,
this teaching, a dogma.

11:34.520 --> 11:35.960
That the mass is the repetition.

11:36.160 --> 11:40.880
What that means is, by the time that the
priest offers the horse and the altar,

11:41.400 --> 11:45.440
that horse, that wine, no longer is bread
and wine.

11:45.440 --> 11:52.040
It is the flesh, the deity, the soul,
and the blood of Jesus Christ.

11:52.680 --> 11:56.620
Now, that is contrary, totally,
totally, fully contrary.

11:56.980 --> 11:58.200
I will say this much.

11:58.600 --> 12:02.640
As I was convicted of the Holy Spirit,
reading the Scripture in chapter 6 of the

12:02.640 --> 12:07.480
Gospel of John, where Roman Catholicism
tried to enforce and persuade people to

12:07.480 --> 12:12.720
believe that Jesus was referring to eat
His flesh and His blood and drink His

12:12.720 --> 12:17.000
blood in a literal way, I will do this.

12:17.520 --> 12:22.480
John Knox, the founder of the
Presbyterian, once said, the mass is a

12:22.480 --> 12:22.940
blasphemy.

12:23.160 --> 12:24.200
And he was a priest.

12:24.380 --> 12:26.680
He was a priest converted to the Gospel.

12:26.920 --> 12:29.280
And he said, the mass is a blasphemy.

12:29.500 --> 12:34.340
When I came out from the Roman Catholic
abomination of the mass, when Christ set

12:34.340 --> 12:39.880
me free from that abomination,
then I became convicted that the mass is

12:39.880 --> 12:45.520
not only a blasphemy, it is the greatest
blasphemy against Christ, His sacrifice.

12:46.160 --> 12:50.180
You see, as I was convicted, I was brought
to the book of Hebrews.

12:50.320 --> 12:54.060
Let me show you where the Holy Spirit
brought me to the conviction.

12:54.620 --> 13:00.200
As I read in Hebrews, you can,
chapter 9 of Hebrews...

13:00.200 --> 13:00.600
Verse 28.

13:00.740 --> 13:01.760
That is correct.

13:01.880 --> 13:03.100
This is what we see.

13:03.100 --> 13:07.440
So Christ was once offered to bear the
sins of many.

13:07.700 --> 13:08.380
Only once.

13:08.680 --> 13:12.180
Do you know how many times the mass has
been performed right today?

13:12.500 --> 13:12.980
Right now.

13:13.320 --> 13:18.900
As we are talking right now, as people are
witnessing us and watching us here,

13:18.900 --> 13:26.020
the mass, the Roman Catholic mass,
has been performed 168,000.

13:28.140 --> 13:34.520
168,000 masses all over the world in 24
hours around the clock.

13:34.540 --> 13:36.220
So the crucifixion is not done.

13:36.480 --> 13:39.100
The resurrection is not yet.

13:39.740 --> 13:43.360
You see, this is a defeat for the gospel.

13:43.820 --> 13:45.880
It's a defeat if you were to accept that.

13:45.880 --> 13:48.160
Because it's a defeat for Christianity.

13:48.320 --> 13:49.920
It's a defeat for the church.

13:50.540 --> 13:54.020
Because they keep sacrificing the person.

13:54.060 --> 13:55.920
And that's why Christ is still on the
cross.

13:56.000 --> 13:57.980
The crosses show him still hanging there.

13:58.200 --> 13:59.700
It's not an empty cross.

13:59.900 --> 14:00.940
He's still on that cross.

14:00.940 --> 14:01.560
He's still on that.

14:01.800 --> 14:04.680
The priest is still sacrificing him every
day.

14:05.260 --> 14:07.420
In light of the fact that he died once.

14:07.860 --> 14:09.340
And it's strange, Dr. Ribeiro.

14:09.500 --> 14:13.460
The thing that I marvel about is that,
you know, I've been a New Testament

14:13.460 --> 14:14.500
student for years.

14:14.500 --> 14:20.520
And it seems like... I was making a
beeline for Hebrews 9, 28 while you were

14:20.520 --> 14:20.860
talking.

14:22.580 --> 14:24.320
To substantiate what you said.

14:24.720 --> 14:26.300
And here you beat me to it.

14:26.320 --> 14:27.620
You were thinking in the same wavelength.

14:28.340 --> 14:33.980
I really believe if we could destroy the
denominational barriers and tear down the

14:33.980 --> 14:36.020
sheepfolds that divide all of these
people.

14:36.560 --> 14:40.240
We could flow together so well as one
people in Christ.

14:40.700 --> 14:41.740
There would be such unity.

14:41.840 --> 14:42.540
And what is written.

14:42.540 --> 14:44.180
If we just go by what is written in the
Bible.

14:44.920 --> 14:49.760
But, you know, the Protestants have their
creeds just as much as the Catholics do.

14:49.760 --> 14:51.520
They have added and taken away.

14:51.540 --> 14:51.900
They have added to the Bible.

14:52.780 --> 14:54.100
You mentioned the crucifixion.

14:54.200 --> 14:55.880
He says in Hebrews 6, verse 6.

14:56.000 --> 14:56.180
Yes.

14:56.320 --> 14:58.320
If they fall away, they renew to them
again.

14:58.900 --> 15:01.300
It's impossible to renew them again to
repentance.

15:01.760 --> 15:05.240
Seeing they crucify to themselves the Son
of God afresh.

15:05.540 --> 15:07.940
Not even two times, only once.

15:08.300 --> 15:08.480
Yes.

15:08.540 --> 15:08.800
Right.

15:08.960 --> 15:09.520
Only once.

15:09.940 --> 15:11.240
I will say this much.

15:11.240 --> 15:17.560
I have a book here, Brother Darin,
that was written on the very people and

15:17.560 --> 15:20.960
the life of the very people that refused
to partake of the Mass.

15:21.320 --> 15:22.660
They were put to death.

15:23.000 --> 15:24.320
For refusing to take of the Mass?

15:24.420 --> 15:25.520
For refusing to take the Mass.

15:25.780 --> 15:26.100
Yes.

15:26.260 --> 15:30.700
They were put to death on the edicts of
several Popes throughout the ages.

15:30.700 --> 15:35.920
How many people do you think the
Albigensies, the Waldensies, the Hugonots,

15:36.140 --> 15:38.240
the... in Europe...

15:38.240 --> 15:42.720
How many millions do you believe have been
put to death?

15:43.060 --> 15:48.680
Actually, more than 68... 67 to 68
millions that were put to death,

15:48.880 --> 15:53.840
a total, during more than 800 years of
inquisition by the Roman Catholic

15:53.840 --> 15:54.480
institution.

15:54.700 --> 15:55.560
800 years?

15:55.680 --> 15:56.900
Yes, 800 years.

15:57.640 --> 16:00.420
Well, that doesn't mean the inquisition
ceased.

16:00.540 --> 16:01.780
The inquisition never ceased.

16:01.780 --> 16:06.740
The inquisition, you can see that I show
you this book, a memorial of the English

16:06.740 --> 16:09.820
martyrs in Spain, in England, in Europe,
all over.

16:10.120 --> 16:16.040
But then, at the same side, you have a
20th century testimony of a priest that

16:16.040 --> 16:19.120
was murdered, as I said before,
in a program before.

16:19.240 --> 16:22.220
Well, haven't they changed the name of the
inquisition to the Holy Office?

16:22.240 --> 16:23.600
To the Holy Office, that is correct.

16:23.600 --> 16:28.300
Well, the Holy Office still is responsible
for what the inquisition did.

16:28.400 --> 16:32.620
It's just that the inquisition carried
such a bad connotation that people didn't

16:32.620 --> 16:34.380
want to use that term anymore.

16:34.380 --> 16:38.800
Yes, well, the change has been now,
the Holy Office, what used to be the Holy

16:38.800 --> 16:44.060
Office, the office of the inquisition,
the general inquisitor for all over the

16:44.060 --> 16:49.040
world, that office now is changed to the
name, still the same office in the

16:49.040 --> 16:53.960
Vatican, but the name has changed to the
Office for the Preservation of the

16:53.960 --> 16:54.840
Catholic Faith.

16:55.260 --> 16:56.820
Yes, right.

16:56.960 --> 16:58.560
That is the Holy Office, yes.

16:58.560 --> 17:00.320
Now, you mentioned Babylon.

17:01.420 --> 17:07.620
Of course, John was amazed when he,
it says that he left the church in the

17:07.620 --> 17:14.480
wilderness where she fled, and the dragon
opened his mouth in a flood, which no

17:14.480 --> 17:17.960
doubt was false doctrine, the flood that
came out to swallow her up.

17:18.140 --> 17:22.320
Yes, the drunkenness that even the angels
speak, yes, to get people drunk.

17:22.320 --> 17:23.720
And so the church was lost.

17:24.240 --> 17:30.140
But when John came back into the
wilderness in Revelation, it said he

17:30.140 --> 17:30.680
wandered.

17:31.160 --> 17:36.640
In chapter 17, I saw the woman drunken
with the blood of saints, with the blood

17:36.640 --> 17:37.440
of martyrs.

17:37.500 --> 17:38.060
Martyrs.

17:38.100 --> 17:39.680
86 million of them.

17:40.060 --> 17:40.620
68.

17:41.480 --> 17:44.000
68 million of Jesus.

17:44.140 --> 17:45.680
And when I saw her, I wandered.

17:45.800 --> 17:46.120
Yes.

17:46.120 --> 17:49.680
It says in the King James Version with
great admiration, but in the Greek,

17:50.320 --> 17:51.220
it was astonishment.

17:51.500 --> 17:51.780
Yes.

17:51.900 --> 17:57.600
That the church that was so beautiful,
now has been corrupted into such an ugly

17:57.600 --> 17:58.000
prostitute.

17:58.000 --> 18:03.080
Well, I will say, not the church of
Christ, not the church of Christ,

18:03.180 --> 18:04.120
but the religion.

18:04.400 --> 18:05.800
Would you think it was the Judaizers?

18:05.880 --> 18:06.800
Yes, that is correct.

18:06.800 --> 18:08.420
Did the Judaizers have anything to do with
this corruption?

18:08.420 --> 18:13.260
That is correct, because many of the Jews,
they infiltrated the church in the early

18:13.260 --> 18:13.680
days.

18:14.040 --> 18:17.300
You can see that by reading the book of
Acts, chapter 15 already.

18:17.940 --> 18:23.080
And then we have throughout history,
that even the Roman Empire has used Jews

18:23.080 --> 18:24.320
as spies.

18:25.220 --> 18:25.960
There is plenty.

18:26.540 --> 18:32.900
Josephus is one of the historians that
bring about documentation on the fact that

18:32.900 --> 18:37.080
the Roman emperors and the senators,
they were using Jews to infiltrate the

18:37.080 --> 18:37.440
church.

18:38.100 --> 18:39.400
Mostly as Christians.

18:40.120 --> 18:44.680
They developed and paved the way for Roman
Catholicism to come up later.

18:45.380 --> 18:46.820
Now, that is what I see here.

18:47.340 --> 18:49.580
Along with this, I would like to quote you
this.

18:49.680 --> 18:53.580
I have a very dramatic experience not too
long ago in California.

18:54.220 --> 19:02.020
I was called by an Indian lady in Carmel,
the city of Carmel in California.

19:02.580 --> 19:06.140
It is North California, the city of
Carmel.

19:06.140 --> 19:11.820
If you see your geography, you will find
there is one of the Roman Catholic

19:11.820 --> 19:15.700
missions there in Carmel, right in the
city of Carmel.

19:15.940 --> 19:21.540
It was one of the oldest Roman Catholic
missions established by a monk called Fr.

19:21.880 --> 19:23.100
Junipero Serra.

19:24.000 --> 19:28.560
Now, Junipero Serra established most of
the Roman Catholic missions in California.

19:29.320 --> 19:33.640
And when this Indian lady called me,
she said, are you familiar?

19:33.940 --> 19:36.180
You must be familiar with Junipero Serra.

19:36.220 --> 19:37.180
I said, yes, of course.

19:37.460 --> 19:43.040
I was a Jesuit priest, and I was able to
be acquainted with his files and records

19:43.040 --> 19:43.720
in the Vatican.

19:44.240 --> 19:49.640
As I went through then, because that was
part of my mission, to know all this data,

19:49.840 --> 19:51.220
especially in the United States.

19:51.840 --> 19:57.800
And she said, I need your help,
because I understand that you now are a

19:57.800 --> 19:58.220
Christian.

19:58.220 --> 20:01.260
Now, she knew there was a difference now.

20:01.500 --> 20:04.580
She read Alberto, the first part of my
testimony.

20:05.380 --> 20:16.260
And the Indian are what they call the
Indians that are in that north part of the

20:16.260 --> 20:18.260
north of California.

20:18.700 --> 20:24.180
And they have still the descendants of
that particular tribe.

20:24.180 --> 20:31.260
As I arrived to El Carmel City,
we met, and they said, what we need from

20:31.260 --> 20:36.140
you is to help us to stop the Pope from
coming here.

20:36.920 --> 20:38.280
I said, how I can do that?

20:38.620 --> 20:40.680
How I can stop the Pope from coming here?

20:41.660 --> 20:43.120
They said, you can.

20:43.300 --> 20:46.440
If you help us, we can stop him.

20:46.860 --> 20:49.840
And I said, what do you want from me?

20:49.840 --> 20:51.980
All what I can give to you is the Gospel.

20:52.460 --> 20:54.140
All what I can offer you is Christ.

20:54.740 --> 20:57.740
Forget about stopping the Pope from coming
here.

20:58.300 --> 21:02.820
You come to the knowledge of Christ as
your personal Lord and Savior,

21:03.140 --> 21:07.180
you will be free from the Pope,
and you will have nothing to do no longer

21:07.180 --> 21:07.880
with the Pope.

21:08.480 --> 21:10.060
They said, but we need something.

21:10.680 --> 21:14.720
We need him not to come here, because he
is a curse.

21:15.040 --> 21:16.720
He brings curses to our people.

21:16.720 --> 21:23.740
The Indians, now the Indians after 500
years of Roman Catholic teaching,

21:24.400 --> 21:32.900
are still not sure yet of whom Catholic
religion is, what Catholic religion is all

21:32.900 --> 21:33.200
about.

21:33.640 --> 21:40.040
They tell me that their people were
massacred by Junipero Serra.

21:40.040 --> 21:46.500
Over 10,000 Indian children, mothers and
fathers, were massacred.

21:47.000 --> 21:53.400
And she brought me to the pavement of the
parking lot of the mission, of the Roman

21:53.400 --> 21:54.700
Catholic parish.

21:55.360 --> 22:02.380
In that big parking lot, she said,
there are my ancestors buried in one tomb.

22:03.540 --> 22:06.380
They were massacred in one morning.

22:06.380 --> 22:11.260
They all were massacred because they
refused to accept Catholic teaching.

22:11.640 --> 22:13.700
That happened 500 years ago.

22:14.480 --> 22:22.580
Why still the people, Catholic people,
are being so deprived of trusting solely,

22:22.900 --> 22:25.180
solely in the Holy Scripture?

22:25.380 --> 22:25.700
Why?

22:26.420 --> 22:26.840
Yes.

22:27.520 --> 22:31.220
Do you think that Satan has brought a
great delusion?

22:32.000 --> 22:37.540
It says in 1 Thessalonians, actually it's
a 2 Thessalonian letter.

22:37.980 --> 22:38.200
Yes.

22:38.240 --> 22:39.520
You know, the question is why?

22:40.440 --> 22:44.340
Well, you take the man of sin in 2
Thessalonians.

22:44.660 --> 22:45.340
Chapter 2.

22:45.460 --> 22:46.560
Yes, Chapter 2.

22:46.700 --> 22:46.840
Yes.

22:47.140 --> 22:52.420
What it says here is that the day will
come, there will be a falling away in

22:52.420 --> 22:52.540
verse 3.

22:52.540 --> 22:53.020
That's correct.

22:53.700 --> 22:57.980
The son of perdition who opposes and
exalts himself above all that is called

22:57.980 --> 22:58.460
God.

22:58.460 --> 23:02.860
He said in verse 5, remember you,
not that when I was with you I told you

23:02.860 --> 23:03.380
these things.

23:04.140 --> 23:11.240
But he says here that in verse 11,
verse 10, it says that with all

23:11.240 --> 23:14.600
deceivableness of unrighteousness in them
that perish.

23:14.740 --> 23:15.420
In them that perish.

23:15.420 --> 23:17.380
Because they receive not the love of the
truth.

23:17.540 --> 23:19.800
The love of the truth, not just the truth.

23:20.140 --> 23:21.400
The love of the truth.

23:21.960 --> 23:24.440
Love and truth are indivisible.

23:25.640 --> 23:26.100
Exactly.

23:27.220 --> 23:30.300
Love rejoices, not in iniquity,
but in the truth.

23:30.400 --> 23:30.980
In the truth.

23:31.640 --> 23:34.880
And God gave them a great delusion that
they should believe a lie.

23:35.020 --> 23:35.360
Yes.

23:35.480 --> 23:36.980
That's what you and I are up against.

23:37.100 --> 23:37.460
Yes.

23:38.540 --> 23:39.700
A great delusion.

23:40.020 --> 23:40.420
Yes.

23:41.420 --> 23:45.100
Not only that, but Babylon is the mother
of even Protestants.

23:45.880 --> 23:47.380
Protestants still love their mother.

23:47.580 --> 23:50.700
I'm amazed that Protestants, most of
them...

23:50.700 --> 23:51.320
They are going back.

23:51.440 --> 23:52.420
They are going back to the mother.

23:52.420 --> 23:53.300
They are going back to the mother.

23:53.300 --> 23:55.520
This is your ecumenical today.

23:55.700 --> 23:59.440
What on earth is going to happen to you
and others like you and myself,

23:59.440 --> 24:02.360
if that ever comes to pass?

24:02.860 --> 24:04.240
They all go back to the mother.

24:04.740 --> 24:05.180
Well...

24:05.180 --> 24:08.200
Are we going to have another European
Middle Ages?

24:08.620 --> 24:09.060
Inquisition?

24:09.360 --> 24:11.380
Well, it will be an inquisition.

24:11.480 --> 24:12.140
It's prophesied.

24:12.400 --> 24:13.980
But nevertheless, I believe this.

24:14.080 --> 24:15.640
The Christians are not to fear.

24:16.140 --> 24:17.940
The Christians, the believers,
are not to fear.

24:17.940 --> 24:24.400
Because even the Israelites, they were
even, until the 10th plague, they were

24:24.400 --> 24:28.100
preserved and protected under the blood of
the Lamb.

24:28.400 --> 24:28.900
Yes.

24:29.020 --> 24:29.760
Isn't that beautiful?

24:30.360 --> 24:34.220
And under the blood of Jesus Christ,
you can be protected too.

24:34.980 --> 24:37.160
Every Christian can be protected.

24:37.580 --> 24:39.960
Every person that comes to Christ.

24:40.520 --> 24:42.060
That is marvelous.

24:42.320 --> 24:43.580
That is gracious.

24:43.580 --> 24:50.440
Even in the plagues of Deuteronomy and in
the book of Psalms, it said that these

24:50.440 --> 24:52.500
plagues will not touch you.

24:52.640 --> 24:52.880
Yes.

24:53.240 --> 24:54.660
They will not come near to us.

24:54.700 --> 24:56.660
The plagues of Egypt will not come near to
you.

24:56.780 --> 24:58.340
Not even AIDS.

24:58.740 --> 24:59.420
Not AIDS, no.

24:59.540 --> 25:00.060
Not even AIDS.

25:00.060 --> 25:00.320
Not even AIDS.

25:01.020 --> 25:09.220
You know, when you speak of the
persecution you get, I understood some of

25:09.220 --> 25:11.640
that in my latest writing on the book.

25:11.800 --> 25:12.720
On AIDS.

25:12.720 --> 25:13.020
Yes.

25:13.020 --> 25:14.020
And the curse of AIDS.

25:14.080 --> 25:15.080
A wonderful message.

25:15.380 --> 25:17.740
A prophetical message that you brought in
that book.

25:17.940 --> 25:18.200
Yes.

25:18.340 --> 25:19.200
I thank you for that.

25:19.220 --> 25:19.440
Yes.

25:19.520 --> 25:20.120
Because...

25:20.120 --> 25:26.800
And that put me to believe that we are so
close in this revelation.

25:27.040 --> 25:33.380
Because a year before, I was speaking
about the prophetical meaning of AIDS when

25:33.380 --> 25:35.540
I now read your book on AIDS.

25:35.540 --> 25:44.440
So you were led to ascertain that God
forewarned plagues of the AIDS nature...

25:44.440 --> 25:44.780
Yes.

25:44.940 --> 25:46.760
...upon a godless country.

25:46.980 --> 25:47.340
Yes.

25:48.140 --> 25:51.860
By reading your scripture and then the
book just confirmed...

25:51.860 --> 25:55.200
...mainly to punish the homosexuals and
the lesbians.

25:55.840 --> 26:01.800
Because if we read before in 1 Timothy
chapter 4 as you read about forbidden to

26:01.800 --> 26:07.940
marry, celibacy has been one of the
greatest, most powerful nests of getting

26:07.940 --> 26:10.660
this plague at work.

26:11.400 --> 26:12.520
It's amazing.

26:12.800 --> 26:13.880
Absolutely amazing.

26:14.400 --> 26:17.040
I know we have a battle.

26:17.560 --> 26:19.520
We invite you to join with us.

26:20.160 --> 26:21.920
Now, Christ said, I'll draw men.

26:22.060 --> 26:26.120
This is not for those that are not... did
not have the manhood.

26:26.300 --> 26:27.260
He said, I'll draw men.

26:27.680 --> 26:27.780
Yes.

26:28.380 --> 26:31.280
God wants men to act like men and women to
act like women.

26:31.960 --> 26:35.560
And we invite you and solicit you for
prayers for Dr. Rivera.

26:35.980 --> 26:38.740
A tremendous battle, the conflict that we
have.

26:38.760 --> 26:41.460
And we're going to go to heaven and rest
from our labors.

26:41.660 --> 26:41.940
Yes.

26:42.260 --> 26:44.500
But you know, you have to labor in order
to rest from them.

26:44.600 --> 26:44.780
Amen.

26:45.320 --> 26:49.280
And we pray for Dr. Rivera as he labors in
the truth.

26:49.280 --> 26:52.680
Out on the front lines, let's join with
him.

26:53.040 --> 26:58.280
And let's pray that God will give us the
victory in this day and age and eternally

26:58.280 --> 26:59.120
in the world to come.

26:59.780 --> 27:02.000
See you next week on the Preach the Word
broadcast.

27:02.620 --> 27:02.820
Amen.
