The Bible is a divine tool

Apostle German Ponce

I see the Bible as a divine tool; there will be many things after doing this.
I would have liked to continue and do more and maybe develop a week solely on what
it is really the Bible. So on the side that you see there, you realize that they are
the books neatly arranged, from the front you will see how they are placed there
the books, the Torah or the Pentateuch which are the first five books of the Bible and seeing
this description we made, I realized that in the Old Testament they are grouped with the
number five and with the number two; you know that five is the number of grace and two is a
government number.

When we say the Torah, when we say the Pentateuch, we are referring to the first five books of the
The Bible that you see there, then the historical books are all in light blue and there are twelve.
historical books, you see that with a little green are the poetic books, then we start
with the prophets, there are five prophets known as major, not because they are more or less.
These are called the major prophets, and then there are twelve minor prophets. So
five from the Pentateuch, twelve historical, five poetic, five from the prophets
major and twelve minor prophets.

On the other side are the gospels, you can see them there after the gospels of
Christ Jesus appears in the book of Acts, followed by the fourteen epistles of Paul, then
the other epistles that are intended for some people there appear, and finally the
Apocalypse.

So I don't want to make this a boring class, because what I want and asked for
I have been studying since last night and this morning as well, because what
What I want is for you to fall in love with the book, that is what I want, for you to forget...
whatever it is, but not that book because you will see everything that is in this book, so
I hope I haven't ruined the class, but what I want is to convey life to you, not to transfer it.
dead letter.

So I set out to look for the figure of Christ Jesus in every book, which means that
The Bible is like a bicycle tire, all the spokes go to the center and the center is Christ.
the Bible should not be seen in another way, it is a book that brings the revelation of the Son,
Christ Jesus. So I can't preach this like this either, first God, you...
keep it in your Bible and this will serve as a guide for you, but for example in the book of
Genesis, you know that Abraham was going to sacrifice, he was going to give up his own son and
Soon he wanted to substitute his son's place with a lamb, and he says: Where is the
lamb? And they gave him a ram, but what he replaced, then Christ is that lamb that
replaced.
So I want you to realize what happened in the book of Exodus, there is a Passover lamb,
What is offered so that the people who were captive in Egypt for 430 years can be freed?
free, they ate the lamb, which is called the Passover lamb, because they passed over the
judgment and they left, so Christ is the lamb, Leviticus speaks to us about priests, Christ
He is the priest, I don't know if I make myself clear.

So the first thing I want to tell you is that it is a book written by different people,
in different places, by people who perhaps had knowledge and by people who perhaps did not
they had, but what everyone had was a call from God to receive the divine message. The
The Bible is like a book that you will see perfectly, a book that is interwoven.

I have a phrase that I coined a long time ago and I tell it to people that
The Bible is a book that the Old Testament, although we are in the New, but the Old

contradictions of the Scripture, but it is a book that was not woven together in a way
earthly, but in a celestial way so that all that book can be a book for me a
the book that I called divine, is the divine tool.

And they have taken on the task for a long time, it didn't fall to us to live those years of
darkness, but the one who wanted, for example, to seek from the book had to become a friar and
If he became a friar, they took him to a place where the Bible was chained and only one person

I thought about it, coming to explain this to him is not the task, nor is it to talk to him about the 66 appearances.
of Christ, how Christ was in each book, surely it would take me about five hours
to explain it one by one. This about where Christ is in the 66 books and I taught it in the
television, it is called Emanuel and there were twenty half-hour programs, so there were
ten hours without interruption and without questions that I gave this many years ago.
So I gift this to you, because I would have liked it if someone had just started by giving it to me.

Hebrews 10:7 THEN I SAID: "BEHOLD, I HAVE COME (IN THE ROLL OF

There is a divine dialogue, this dialogue is not on earth, this dialogue is in heaven and then
The Father speaks with the Son and the Son who is the Word, notice what things, are not on earth,
They are in heaven talking, so notice that Christ had not come to earth, he had not
incarnated so that we would name him Jesus, he was the Word up there, he says: Father
I have come in the roll of the book that is written about me.

And what caught my attention, and of course it's a dialogue from heaven, is that suddenly I see,
First, a very important point, first is that in the sky before the earth was
There are already books created, so you can realize the importance of the written word.
He says: 'Father, I have already read the scroll that speaks of me, the time has come, sacrifice,
holocaust you didn't want, prepare a body for me, I am going down to earth." That is called the
mystery of piety, The Word, God, strips himself of his divine attributes and comes to earth,
but the point is that he did it, because it was already written, says the scroll, the book.

The word book in Greek is Biblion, it is Biblia, from there the name Bible comes from, from a book.
So I was struck by a divine dialogue even before the earth was created.
it was already written all the commission that the Lord was going to have, so I noticed the importance of
a word written that even in the sky they have it there.

When Christ Jesus begins to carry out his ministry, you know that Satan attacks him,
He says: "If you are hungry, make this stone turn into bread" and you know. Then He

The Bible brings salvation

Acts 8:30 When Philip ran up to it, he heard the Ethiopian reading the prophet Isaiah, and he said to him:
Do you understand what you read? Verse 31: And he answered: How can I, unless someone guides me?
He invited Felipe to come up and sit with him. (LBLA)

Several important things, there was a man here who came from Africa, from continent to
continent, he was going to Israel, because he said: The God of Israel is the true God and says that
he was in charge of the treasures over there in Ethiopia, Africa, of the kings that were there in
Africa, but he was in charge of the treasures, he was a man who had money and remember that.
that in those days there was no Bible like today, the Bible was used by the priests, they had their
rolls over there in Israel, but what he managed to do is buy a roll of Isaiah, which means that
This Ethiopian eunuch even learned to read Hebrew.

And then he goes in a carriage and he is reading and God looks at an evangelist by His Spirit,
Look at the work of an evangelist, an evangelist is not the one who goes out to shout and tell everyone.
In the park where they are going to hell, an evangelist is someone who announces good news.

So Felipe is walking and the Spirit speaks to him and says: -do you see that one coming in that
car, - Yes, -Ask him for a ride, because he is going to give you a ride, I'm paraphrasing this.
You see, he's asked for a ride and says to him: 'Look, you're reading.' Now it seems that things are wrong.
customs, now they walk around, but texting right, but back then she was reading and she says: -
What are you reading?, -I am reading the book of Isaiah, -and do you understand what you read?, -no,
How am I going to understand, if someone explains it to me with pleasure I will understand it, why don't you
You rise, you know, -yes.

She got in the car with him, I don't know how much time has passed, but look at the task of a
evangelist, although the point is the Scripture, the evangelist rises up and starts to explain it to him:
Where are you going? –In Isaiah, and he says that he explained everything to him; look at this thing, he explained it in such a way.
the book that when he realized: - so this is the reality of the Gospel?, -yes.
So I want to be baptized already, he said. And what is required? -First that you are
repentant, -yes I am repentant of my sins, -and second that there is water, because the
baptism is to be completely submerged and then they stopped the car, both got out, it
baptizes, then says that from there that man went away joyful, because he obtained the
salvation.

So this book brings you Salvation, there is no other way, everything is written there.
the work of Christ Jesus and the only way to be saved is called Christ Jesus and when to
you ask them: 'and those of other religions that do not know'. Then you have to
say: 'look, it does not say that Jesus is one of the doors, He is the only door,' says Jesus is the
way, not one of the ways, He is the truth, not one of the truths, He is the life, the
the only way to be saved through Christ Jesus and what Christ Jesus did, you have it there
in the Bible, that is why many people come to the church over time very condemned and people who
It has been a while, why do they allow themselves to be condemned.

When one reads the book, when one starts to read the Bible, one starts to read and says:

Romans 8:1 Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ
Jesus, those who do not walk according to the flesh but according to the Spirit.

If suddenly the Devil says to you: yes, but what about the sins you committed before, God has them there.
So you look in the book, you look in the Bible and then it says there that The Lord grabs
our sins, He casts them to the bottom of the sea and never remembers them again.
By reading this book, you will better understand the Gospel.
So the number one point for me is that this book brought to this Ethiopian, to this eunuch,
He was reading his copy of the book and what it brought him was Salvation. This book is going to bring him
Salvation, not only says hell, it will save you from many things, it will save you from many
errors will save him from remaining in misery and poverty, the young ones or the singles,
It's going to save them from marrying poorly, this book has everything, here is our salvation.

So I ask you to be such a special promotion that you are not

depending on me, do not depend on me, do not depend on man, if the Church would read the
Bible how it should be read, we wouldn't have counselors, this book brings one Salvation, by

all the writing - then I say to Him: Lord, put hunger and thirst for your word in him. The Bible says
that when one is in this book one obtains Salvation.

The Bible reforms our life

2 Chronicles 34:14 And while they were bringing out the money that had been brought into the house of the Lord
LORD, the priest Hilkiah found the book of the law of the LORD given by Moses.
(LBLA)

Here they are in the days of King Josiah and then the people of God had forgotten about the
Sir, you know, since they did not consult the book, many mistakes are made, and suddenly like...
they no longer preached, they no longer taught, they said: "how nice, here we can put an idol of
this, here we can put an idol of another and when they felt God went away." If anything God
it does not support idolatry. When you read the Scripture throughout the Old Testament you will find
let's see when God turns his back, when God sends judgments, when God sends
poverty, is when there is idolatry. So this king Josiah began to bring about a reform and
he began to remove all the idols.

About 15 years ago, I was invited to a brother's house and as I was entering, I brother
There was a fountain with a lady carrying a child, at the entrance and when I saw it I said:
Sister, but you are Christian, -Yes,– and look, you have a little Virgin there, you have Saint Thomas.
In there, - that's what my grandmother gave me, she said. And notice that this comes from
traditions.

Now, when Jesus came, says the Bible, because here do not come to see what the brother
German dice, come here to see what the Bible says and the Bible says that when the Lord
He entered and saw that there were situations in the Temple that were not clear, He brought order and then
When I saw this about idolatry, I needed to reform, but one starts to think about how.
God enters and how the people of God have turned back, they forget the written word.

You see how much problem there is, for example: Pastor, you see that I like a guy and I
I tell her: Sweetheart, he's very handsome, look at how he's exercising, he has such big arms, but no
You ask me, because they even bring me the photo, look pastor, and what can I say to you,
But since I have to respond with the Bible, I say to you: the Bible says:

2 Corinthians 6:14 Do not be unequally yoked together with unbelievers, for what
What association do justice and iniquity have? Or what communion does light have with darkness?

But he is handsome, yes handsome on the outside, but he is going to be ugly on the inside, because he is not
converted and there are things that collide, but this man started to reform, this Josiah
he started to reform and the first thing he did, you will read it at home, was that he removed all
the idols and suddenly notice that they were looking for, it says that they were in a place where
there was the money from the offerings, the tithes, and whatever else, and then in the middle of the
treasures, that caught my attention, suddenly one who was there found the book, found
the Bible and then one of the thoughts I want to convey is; there are two things in this
passage, first, that in order to reform itself it will only do so with the Bible, there is no other

And you have a friend or a girlfriend with whom you grew up, who made and unmade, and then
you come and go, you are the comadre, you are the compadre, you are the godfather, the godmother, and so many
things that are there, but when one begins to notice what is in the Scripture, one starts
to make decisions and I’m not saying that you shouldn't talk to anyone at work on Monday, just

she needs the book and the book was among the treasures.

So my question would be, really, since you are brand new, but if I were
preaching to all the people who have been around for a while, I would say: Is it really a treasure?
for you the Bible? Because a treasure is to be kept, imagine that you were paid today and in your
wallet brings all the salary, you’re not going to tell me that you’re going to leave it here, you’re going to go to the bathroom and you’re going to
leave the wallet here and go; you take care of it, you say: Pastor, but we are in the temple,
but sometimes there are Judases also in the temples, so you take care of it because it is a treasure,

and puts the plates on top, scrapes it with the fork, no, you take care of it, it's a treasure.

So when I saw the Scripture here, I realized that if we truly love each other
We need to reform the treasure of the word of God. Notice that they were in a crisis.

When they saw the book, they grabbed the book and called a prophetess named

Then Hulda grabs the book and starts telling them everything and you know what, she began to tell them the
the sin they had and then this book provoked repentance, this is what is beautiful
from this book and in verse 27 it says:

you heard his words against this place and against its inhabitants, and you humbled yourself before me, and

So listen brother, a good attitude towards the word of God can change the

The Bible teaches eschatology

Daniel 9:2 In the first year of his reign, I, Daniel, was able to understand in the books the
number of the years in which, by the word of the LORD that was revealed to the prophet Jeremiah,
the desolations of Jerusalem were to be fulfilled: seventy years. (LBLA)

If you are already coming here with us, you know that I am passionate about eschatology.
to know a little bit about what is coming for the earth, this is called in Theology, Eschatology,
events of the future, the last events, the Sunday we just passed we were
speaking fully about all the convergence there is. How to know the future? How to know
of eschatology? Through the book.

The truth is I don’t know how you were before, I hope it was better, but I imagine it’s not anymore.
you grab the newspaper to look for horoscopes, because who doesn’t like to know their
future. I want to know the future, I don't know if you like to know the future, but if
Let's get to know the future, here is the book.

Then I realized that the people were captive in Babylon, only one preaches quickly,
but one cannot understand, knows how it is for him to understand, it's that they come for
for example, if the Mexican army came to San Pedro Sula and took us all away
everyone and San Pedro Sula, which was our city, is left without a single person, for seventy
years forgotten and everyone is taken, one must read the Bible how they were taken, it says no
they respected neither the elderly nor the children and that the vast majority were naked, all in a line, that
they took them away on foot and kept them there for seventy years,
I believe that neither your age nor the one next to you adds up.

So I want you to realize that they were captives, the whole people of
San Pedro Sula was taken captive, years upon years, then Daniel comes and takes the book,
the Bible and starts reading Jeremiah, then began to make calculations, so every cycle that passes

Then this also speaks to me about devotional life, the book tells me: Do you want to know the
future? Then get into prayer, get into supplication, hold on to the word and even fasting,
One begins to understand what the tools of this spiritual life are.

I am going to tell you something very important, Daniel was visited by extraterrestrial beings, because being
An extraterrestrial is any being with intelligence that is not from Earth, extra: outside,
terrestrial: obviously the earth, angels were coming, don't think they are beings with little wings that come,
No, they are intelligent beings from other dimensions, Angel is a messenger from God and he spoke to him.
Miguel, Gabriel was speaking to him, he had contact with beings who came to visit him on behalf of
God, he listened to them, asked them, but nevertheless did not stop reading the Scripture.

What I want is for him to value the writing, he could ask angels, but for that

to attack, because my pastor used to say: by sowing the truth, error withers, but
since you are a little lamb, I also don't want you to be deceived, because someone might tell you:
just as angels visited Daniel, there was also a man hundreds of years ago who
his name was Joseph Smith and he was visited by an angel named Moroni and today that is the
Book of Mormon and they say that what they have is the revelation of an angel.

So maybe you will ask me: well, didn't Daniel have revelations from angels?
so like the whole Bible, it must be read, it says:

Galatians 1:8 But even if we, or an angel from heaven, should preach to you a gospel contrary to the one we preached to you, let him be accursed.

The Bible is a shield

Acts 17:10 Immediately, the brothers sent Paul and Silas away by night to
Berea. And they, having arrived, entered the synagogue of the Jews. Verse 11: And these
they were more noble than those in Thessalonica, for they received the word with all
request, examining the Scriptures every day to see if these things were so. (RV1960)

Not just anyone arrived to preach, it wasn't brother German who arrived there, no, it was the Apostle Paul.
to preach, he brought the gospel, the revelation, but those in Berea, they were the promotion
of little lambs of Ebenezer and then he stood up to teach and everyone with their rolls, with their Bible
seeing, they didn't say amen to everything. When I invite someone to preach and they say something

a little bit, I read a passage and add something else, because sometimes people say amen to everything,
Do not say amen to everything, be like a Berean.

It means that when someone is preaching, the Bereans ask: 'Where does it say that?'
Oh yes, perfect. Oh no, it doesn't say that here." So the written word was like a shield.
where they checked, they did not say amen to everything, the Bereans used the word
to verify that what they preach is true.

When someone tells you, for example, Jesus is not God, you cannot say to them
Amen, go search in the Scripture and there you will find, go to the Gospel of John: And the Word

If anyone comes to you and does not bring this doctrine, do not receive him into your house, nor greet him:

One time a boy approached me and said: Pastor, how do you know the Bible, oh dear.
I told him, I've been reading this book for 37 years, imagine if things didn't stick with me.
after 37 years of reading the book, that would be a shame, right? I started at 16

And he asked me: What did German read? I told him the press, and why did I bring him the New one?
