The Mountain of
Revelations
You want to go to that
mountain of revelations where the Father is, which was once guarded by
deception? and you have to go through Lucifer, and he had a lot of magic tricks
in his book. You won’t be able to come to the summit right away.
The Begotten Son said,
“I will do it.” So He came down. The Word of God came and became flesh. Satan
would take no less than His life. So He paid the price on the cross. He became
the sacrifice. He died. When He died, He said, “It is finished.” What was
finished was His redemption work. What was His redemption work? It was to take
back the Sonship and the Kingship. At His death on the cross—Christians don’t
know this—the Sonship and the Kingship were no longer in the hands of Satan; it
was already in the hands of Jesus Christ. But Satan can still deceive. He still
can shadow box in the mountain of revelations, deceive the people and let us
believe that he is powerful. This is what he did to Christianity.
Listen to every
Christian testimony. They have 90% of the devil in their testimonies and 10%
only of the victory they would receive from God. They would testify one
morning, on a Sunday service and say, “You know, I can barely come up and
testify before you because all week long, the devil was after us. He went and
destroyed our automobile. He went and destroyed our bank book. We have no money
today because of the devil. Thank God that today, I survived the onslaught of
Lucifer!”
It was always the
devil that was glorified. And the devil was laughing for though he had no more
power, you were empowering him because you didn’t know! Not in the Kingdom,
because here, we know!
The Begotten Son in
the Jewish setting paid the price! Now, the problem is: the mission of the Son
was not only to take back the Sonship and the Kingship, but to give it back to
the rightful heir. Now, when He is able to give it back successfully to the
rightful heir, the Father’s work of salvation will be completed.
Who among the
descendants of the fallen Adamic race would be worthy to take the Sonship and
the Kingship? Many have presented themselves, saying,“I will create my own
religion, and I will be the most righteous, I am the heir!”
One religion after
another came out. You know, the opportunity was given to them but they did not
take it. The greatest opportunity to be the heir was given to the Jewish
nation, because they were called by God. They did not call upon God. God called
upon them through Abraham. And He started to give all of them the covenants and
the words, so that salvation may be completed in them. Once completed, the
spirit of the Father can dwell in them, in His house, which is the human being
He created– free of the serpent seed.
But they stopped
halfway there. They liked the temple Solomon built so much because it was
inlaid with gold. They did not know that it was just the Father’s temporary
residence.
The Father could not
live in man if he is not yet finished, so He had a temporary residence. He
lived in the Holy of Holiest. But that was just a temporary arrangement. However,
the Jewish nation loved the temple so much that they could not let go of it.
Until He came and told
them that He was going to phase out all of these and that not one stone that
was put another stone shall not go down.
The Jewish Age was
phased out. Another body was called, not from the Jews, but from the gentiles.
There came Christianity. When you borrow the eyes of the Father, He does not
see our religious, racial, cultural or intellectual divisions. He does not see
our social division, whether we are rich or poor. Nothing of that. When He
looks at all of us, He sees us as descendants of the fallen Adamic race, just
man and woman. We are all infected with the serpent seed in His sight. Billions
of people will face God in judgment one day and He will look upon them like
that. So don’t tell Him about your race. Don’t tell Him, “I you are infected
with the serpent seed, you are still a child of the devil. There are only two
races here: children of God and children of the devil. God is a spirit and He sees
what is inside.
According
to Romans 1:17, the Father has revealed, “For therein is the righteousness
of God revealed from faith to faith.” He revealed His righteousness from faith
to faith. He would call people.
That’s why there are
so many factions in Christianity, there are Catholics, there are Protestants,
there are Pentecostals, there are Charismatics, there are Mormons, there are
the Iglesia [Ni Kristo], there are Jehovah’s Witnesses. All of these received a
portion of the revelation. But just like the Jewish people, their mistake was
that they stopped somewhere. They did not continue. The first faction got so
happy with their little revelation; they were content with where they were. So
there’s no difference between them and the Jewish people.
The Father had to
leave and go to another dimension in the spirit. This is how religion and
denomination in Christianity came about. If you stop where you are without
completing it, you become another religion or denomination. And after that, you
would become a self-presented relic to the Almighty Father. After you become a
religion, you would try to do something and then present it to God. That’s not
the way worship is. He will not accept that. Because He calls a people, and
then make them unto His own image so that they can be presentable to Him.
In Korea, the Father
told me, “I am going to use you.” An audible voice. I didn’t know why He was
going to use me; but I followed His voice. In one of my messages, I spoke of
‘following the lion’. ‘Where is the lion now?’
He was in Israel
before, so people would go there and make a pilgrimage to Israel and would cry
at the site of Calvary. They would faint, cry and tremble – I was there
watching them. I asked them, “Why do you cry? Why do you tremble?” One answered
me, “Because He was crucified.” Then I asked him, “Where is He now?” “I don’t
know,” he replied. I said, “I did not come to see where He was, I came to see
where He is.”
I heard His voice in
Korea, and He told me, “I will use you” three times. It was the Lion speaking.
The one I was looking was the one speaking. So I accepted that revelation. If I
had stopped there, I could have made those three words a religion. My religion
would have been ‘Gamiton Ta Ka’. But I did not stop. I followed the voice of
the lion. I came back to the Philippines, I heard that voice again. He followed
me and told me, “Follow me.” I followed Him.
The first mountain
where He stopped was Kitbog. So Kitbog, one day, is going to be a great city.
Why would it be a great city?Because we would always remember that the
Appointed Son and the Lion were there; and remember the tremendous revelations
I received in that place. It’s very historical.
But if you stop there,
you will not be saved either. So the Lion stopped there and talked to me for
one year. And I had to sit beside Him and listen to Him every boring day. When
I was young, I could not stay inside the house for a minute. That’s how
outgoing I was. I would go out, I would frolic all over the world – that’s my
house. But He made me stay in one boring nipa hut everyday to listen to Him.
After a year of revelations, I was transferred to another mountain.
You know why that was
so significant? Because from the perspective of the Almighty Father, all of the
descendants of the fallen Adamic race are all children of the devil. Within
those five years, although I was already trained, I would remain a child of the
devil if I will not pass the test. Because all of those years would have been
wasted if I did not pass. The serpent seed would have come back running after
me. He said, if one spirit leaves you, and you remain empty within, swept and
cleansed inside, the devil that came out of you would come back with seven more
demons. So if I did not pass Tamayong, I would have been swept away, and the
devil would come back rushing at me and would say, “You were my former house,
why are you getting away? See? Now, I will take hold of you, I will not let you
go any longer. I’ll put seven more demons that are viler than me; and you would
have no way of escape.” But I passed.
So it was significant
when the Father said, “You are my Son.” That means, you are already free of the
serpent seed and He’s never going to come back again. That means, I was going
to be His residence. The six billion human beings on earth do not know this. I
may sound presumptuous and arrogant with this claim, but the six billion human
beings are only one in the sight of the Father. They are sinners and are all
infected with the serpent seed. The Father cannot live in one of them because
somebody is already living there.
When He said, “Now,
You are My Son, you are My residence,” that meant He can live in man. His plan
in the Garden of Eden, before the Fall was going to be accomplished.
We thank the Father
that on that day, He said, “My Son…” I was made worthy not by myself, but by
Him. I was made worthy to receive the inheritance – the Sonship and the
Kingship.When you do that, a change happens within. A spiritual revolution
happens within. The serpent seed is overthrown and you die. That’s why when you
repent, you die. You die to that human will. You are reduced to zero, but don’t
worry, because you’ll rise again. Another spirit will be given to you so that
you will live again. But when you live again, you’ll live to do His will only.
And I am your model.
I was transferred to
Tamayong, so that the righteous seed that was within me could again be tried
and then, go back to Adam and Eve’s state before the fall. The Father led me
back to the Age of Innocence. I had the righteous seed. But it was still an
infant within me. I took the place of Adam and Eve, and I had to be tempted. A
serpent would come and tempt me and it would happen all over again. That is why
I was there in the Garden of Eden, which is the Covenant Mountain and Prayer
Center in Tamayong. He tempted me. He tried to dislodge and weaken me like my
first parents, Adam and Eve – with a soft voice, with a cruel voice, with a
threatening voice, with everything to distract me from surrendering to the will
of the Father. I surrendered before Him. I ate bananas for five years.
It’s only good to eat
bananas with your breakfast in the morning, with ham, egg, bacon and coffee.
But when you eat bananas all day- breakfast, lunch, supper, merienda, for five years, even the smell of banana
would be like poison to you. But I did that in following the will of the
Father. That is what’s going to happen to you. When you follow Him, you will
lose everything.
After five years, I am
healthier than the healthiest person on the face of the earth. No disease.
Nothing. And then, the children of the serpent who are eating steak everyday,
they look sickly. I said to him, “Look at your children! You maimed them with high
cholesterol and hypertension.”
I passed the tests of
hardship, of poverty, of threat, of losing everything just to follow Him. And
the devil would say, “See, you would lose everything; even your relatives, even
your brothers and sisters. Everyone around you!” Would you surrender? Just like
Job, I said, “It is the Father who gave, it is the Father who will take away,
praise be the name of the Almighty Father!
So, everybody was
asking me, “Why do you call yourself the Appointed Son of God?” I said, “Don’t ask me, ask Him who sent me.”
But if you want to read the fulfillment of my life, if you want to read that I
have inherited everything, read Revelations 21:7, “He that overcometh shall inherit
all things…” See? What did I overcome? I overcame the serpent seed. Many others
wanted to go to heaven and become sons without overcoming anything. They cannot
even overcome giving their tithes. And they want to go to heaven and become
sons? They complain when it comes to tithe-giving. They cannot overcome! I
overcame. It was my choice.
In my program, Give Us
This Day, somebody asked me, “If God was powerful, why did He let Adam and Eve
sin? Why didn’t He just intervene and give them power so they would not be able
to sin?” I said, “That’s a good question. At least, you are trying to look at
the creation of man with the freedom of choice.” I said, “If you were there in
the Garden of Eden, what could you have done if you were tempted like Adam and
Eve?” He said, “I will not eat of the fruit!” I said, “Too bad you were not
there. If you were there, we would have no problem today, because your choice
would be to follow.”
But our parents’
choice was to disobey. What can we do? We are here. But, as I said, salvation
has come full circle, because I am back in the Garden of Eden. I took the place
of my parents Adam and Eve, and I succeeded. So among all of you, children of
the Father, I am the only one who did not stop in the middle of the
revelations. I continued. I did not commit the mistake of those who went ahead
of me. I was given the chance and the opportunity to follow the will of the
Father no matter what! I overcame. That’s why He called me His Son. When He
calls you His Son, you will inherit everything.
Jesus Christ’s death
on the cross is not in vain because He had somebody whom He made worthy to
receive the Sonship and the Kingship. These are now in my hands. If you want
salvation, come to the Son – that’s where the Father is. After five years, the
Lion told me, “Now, you can be My house. You can stop looking for the Lion for
the Lion has already found a residence!” It’s inside of me. That is the Father
and Son relationship. That is the cave and the lion. The cave is where the lion
lives. Finally, among the descendants of the fallen Adamic race, one has come
up to become a Son in whom the Father can dwell fully without thinking about
anything else. Loyal, obedient, committed and dedicated to the will of the
Father, no matter what. He says, “Not my will… my heart is fixed, my mind is
made up.”
Back to the Age of
Innocence
That’s why the Father
and Son relationship is already here. It is already finished. The salvation
works of the Father are already completed. Once He can dwell in the human being
He created, then salvation has already been given and has come full circle. The
Garden of Eden is finished. We are back in the Age of Innocence. I passed. I
inherited everything. He has given me the Sonship and the Kingship.
If you want to see the
Father, see me. Don’t see religion and denomination, you’ll be disappointed.
The Lion is no longer there. They may say, “But we have His relics with us!”
Those are just His relics. When you go to the cave of the lion, you can see
some of his hair. But can the hair of the lion save you? I am looking for the
lion, not the hair of the lion. “But this is the hair of the lion!”
Microscopically, that’s the hair of the lion, but that will not bring you to
heaven.
Some of my assistants
keep my hair whenever I have a haircut. I asked them why. They said, “Because
this is your hair, Pastor, we will keep it.” I said to them, do not keep my
hair! Keep my words!” Let my words be written in your mind, and in your heart,
and in your soul. Let the laws of the Father be written in our hearts and in
our minds and in our soul. Keep them there!
That’s why the Son
said, “I am the way, the truth and the life… (Jn. 14:6) So when you hear me
speak, it’s not me that you hear, it’s the Father who lives in me. That’s the
fulfillment of John 14:8. Philip was looking for the Father, and Jesus Christ
said, “Have I not been so long with you Philip, yet you have not known me? He
that has seen me has seen the Father.” (John 14:8).
Look at religion
today; don’t they preach about Jesus Christ? “It’s Jesus Christ that we’re
preaching about! It’s His Words that we are preaching!” When you ask them,
“Where is He?” They would say, “We don’t know. He’s probably somewhere in
heaven, and we are waiting for Him to come in the Rapture when He will break the
heavens open and come with chariots of fire, with angels behind Him to scoop us
back. We have been waiting for that since the year 2000.” They are preaching
about somebody they have not known and they have not seen.
I am preaching about
Someone whom I have met. And if you ask me where He is, I will tell you where
He is. He lives in His Son. That’s why He made Davao City His New Jerusalem.
This is the City which He has chosen for His Son. Do you think it’s just a
coincidence that I was born at the foothills of Mt. Apo? We are from Pampanga
and we didn’t know Mindanao. In fact, people in Pampanga were so ignorant about
Mindanao at the time that when they hear that you’re going to Mindanao, they
would ask you, “Are there stores in Mindanao? Do they have roads there? Do they
have food there?” So why would my [physical] father come here and let me be
born at the foothills of that mountain? Now you know why. He had a plan! And
this plan is now fulfilled!
April 13, 2005, I went
up to the summit of the mountain. And guess who I met there? Lucifer the
powerless. I told him, “Hey, pack up! Your deception is over. I am taking over.
I will be the King of the Father’s new creation! I will now deliver the people
of God! As He has said, ‘Let My people go!’”
Follow me because this
is where the Father is! You will be freed from the greatest bondage of all. It
is a Luciferic, Satanic bondage of the serpent seed, which means obeying your
will until you die and go to hell. You can be freed from that now. Come out,
and let us have a feast in the wilderness. Let us have a feast, a thanksgiving
worship presentation that is acceptable to the Almighty Father. End
