Pr Rafael Santos - Jesus Chorou (Sexta Feira 10/10/14)

Good evening everyone, happy Saturday! Why can we wish each other a happy Saturday? You know that Saturday was a day established by the one who cannot be wrong. Saturday was established by God. God kept Saturday, Jesus kept Saturday, all the disciples kept Saturday.

Just so you have an idea, only Paul, recorded in the Bible, kept the Sabbath 84 times. The Christian Church kept the Sabbath. The Church of the Lion of the Apes kept the Sabbath. Isaiah 66 says that when we reach heaven, we will also keep the Sabbath. Amen? So that's why we can today wish a great and happy Sabbath to our dear friends. So, with kindness, I greet those who are by your side.

with a smile, smile, smile is a hug without touch then you will now wish a great Saturday how wonderful as I told you smile is a hug without touch ready, everyone hugged each other great Saturday, blessed Saturday

Blessed be the name of God. We are going to stand up now. Everybody stand up, let's go. Do you remember this song, brother? Now let's sing as much as you can. Come on? You. That's it. A beauty.

Let's sing like this, very loud: "Come to adore"

Yeah. Yeah.

Let's go! Just the women! Come on girls! One, two, three and... The answer now is from the men!

♪

Men and women, tonight, now it doesn't matter, come on! I came to adore you, I came to prostrate myself, I came to say that you are my God. You are totally lovable, totally worthy, so wonderful to me.

Now, to finish, come to worship.

Once again

I came to adore you, I came to prostrate myself, I came to say that you are my God. You are totally loved, totally worthy, so wonderful to me.

Put yourself in the place of God, imagine yourself being God and listening to a song like this: "What would you do in response to your sins?" Let's bend our knees and we'll give a cry to Heaven through our heart. Great God, thank you very much because we feel the aroma of Jesus here in this place. We are here to worship Him, glorify Him. Therefore, God, we bend our knees

because we understand that the more we go down our level, the more the Lord will be raised and exalted in our midst. May this night the Lord prevail, may your glory shine and illuminate the life of each person here present. May the Lord hold this microphone and speak to our heart. We pray and we are sure that we will be heard because we will conclude this prayer

but it will be signed in the name of Jesus. Let's open our Bibles in the book of John, chapter 11, verse 35. John, chapter 11, verse 35. You know that the Bible has 66 books, 1189 chapters, 31,102 verses,

673,693 words, 3,566,480 letters. Tonight, God, from the 66 books, separated one book for our reflection. From the 1189 chapters in the Bible, God separated a special chapter for tonight.

Of the 773,693 words, God separated only two words. And of the 3,566,480 letters, God separated 11 letters that will revolutionize our lives in the name of Jesus. Amen? Let's look at the menorah verse of the New Testament.

The smallest verse of the New Testament, John 11:35. The Bible says: Jesus... I'll read it again, and you read the second word with more intensity. Okay? Let's go! Hey, brother! Let's go! Verse 35: Jesus... Leave your Bible open and put your eyes in my eyes. The Greek is different from the Portuguese. The Bible was written in three languages.

The Bible was written in Hebrew, the Bible was written in Aramaic, and the Bible was also written in Greek. The New Testament was written in Greek. So let's recap: The Bible was written in three languages. Which is the first one I said? Hebrew, then? And the New Testament? Greek is better than Portuguese. Greek explains a little better than Portuguese.

Greek gives you more clarity in the biblical text. So when you have the opportunity to read the Bible, study the Bible, and you have the opportunity to study the original text, you have a more intense understanding of the biblical verse. For example, just for the Greek word "amour", we have at least, I will put here three words,

Do you want to see an example here? If I say: I love this brother here. I love my wife. And I love God. Do you think the love I feel for this man here is the same as I feel for my wife? But in Portuguese I am using the same word? I love this sinner here, repentant. I love this wonderful woman. And I love God. I leveled. I put the same word.

I love him here Say it again I love her here And I love God

Who is listening to me, can't know which is the deepest love, if you don't know the two here, for example. Because I'm saying that I love, because I also love her, you understand? I love here, I love here, I love there. Now, when it's in the original, for each type of love, according to its depth, there is a word. For example:

In Greek there are at least three words: Phileo, Eros and Agape. Love between friends: Phileo. Love between man and woman: Eros. And love between man and God:

Agape, Phileo, Eros. Eros, Phileo, Agape. The three words mean love, but each word has its degree of intensity and depth.

So, in the Bible, when someone is talking about some kind of love, when someone is saying "Pedro, you love me", for example, you know? There is already a word, when you look at the original, you know what kind of love the Bible is saying. So, the Greek explains it better. For example, now, leaving the word "love", going to the word "to cry", here in this case, there are two words in the Bible to cry. So, when I read like this: "Jesus cried",

If I don't have a deeper understanding of the text, I won't understand why Jesus really cried. There are two words in Greek that represent crying. For example, the first is "dakru". Repeat with me, which is the first? Now a little stronger with animation, although it is a word that is worth crying. Which is the first word? The second word is "klaio". Which is the second word?

Ok, so I'll do it like this, when I do it you say the word, let's go? No. Now, interesting, the word used here to cry, when the Bible says "Jesus cried", is the word "darkroo", which refers to a silent cry. When I look at the Bible and see "Jesus cried", the word here is "darkroo", it is a shed of calm tears. It is already different from the cry of Mary, for example, when the Bible says that Mary cried,

The word for the cry of Mary is "Klaio" If you know these two words, you begin to understand what kind of cry Jesus was. For example, the "Klaio" is a high cry in the Bible, it is a desperate groan in a loud voice, it is a cry of someone who is desperate. Do you understand?

Now, interesting.

Some say, "Pastor, do you know why Jesus cried?" "Because Jesus was late." And I didn't understand when some said, "But why did Jesus cry?" "It's because Jesus was late." And I kept asking myself, "Why did Jesus was late?" Do you remember that Jesus had a very close friend who lived in Bethany? What was the name of the place? And he had two sisters, does anyone remember?

Mary and Mark, do you remember the story? The Bible says that Jesus was in Piraeus, Lazarus was in Bethany, Mary and Mark were there with him. Then Lazarus was there in Bethany, Jesus in Piraeus, about 30, 40 kilometers on average. Lazarus got very sick, the sisters of the boy there, of Lazarus, Mary and Mark, tried to do something.

to revive him, so that he would get better, he didn't get better, then they asked the messenger to call Jesus. The messenger traveled the way of one day, when he arrived, he said: "Jesus, your friend Lazarus is very bad, you just need to go there now." I ask you, did Jesus go at the time or did he stop? Did he or did he not? How many days? Two days. How many? Two days.

Two days. Two? Yes. Two. Three? Two. One week? It's adding up, it's going to be one week. Who thinks it was four days? Raise your hand. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven. Who thinks it was three days? Oops, it's divided here. One, two, three, four, five, six, seven, eight. Who thinks it was two days? Someone said two. One, two, three, four, six.

Who thinks it was a week? Do you know how many days Jesus was stopped? Two! If you look at John 11:6, the Bible says that Jesus was stopped for two days. If you read, if you said four, it's because you read it folded, I understand. But Jesus, he was stopped for two days. Interesting that Lazarus was an intimate friend of Jesus, Jesus loved him very much.

When you look at the Bible, you understand that Jesus rested in the house of Lazarus, many times, it was a point of rest. Then the Bible says that Jesus cried and some people say: "Well, do you know why Jesus cried? Because the messenger went to talk to Jesus, that he needed to heal his friend, he did not go, then Jesus was two days stopped. How many days did Jesus stay?

From Bethany to Bethany, from where Jesus was, from Peraia to Bethany, was a one day journey. But as Jesus was healing, performing miracles, listening to people, Jesus took two days. So, Jesus spent two days standing still, took two more days to get there. When he arrived, Lazarus was dead. How many days ago? Four days.

When the messenger said, "Jesus, your friend is very ill." Possibly Lazarus was still alive. But when the messenger gave the news and he left, Lazarus died. Then Jesus spent two days there. He took two days. When he had a meeting with Lazarus, he already met him.

And some people say: "Do you know why Jesus cried?" "Because he was late" If he hadn't been late, Jesus wouldn't have cried Do you agree with that? Do you think Jesus cried because he was late? Yes or no? But why did Jesus delay? I learned some things here First of all, let me tell you a detail Why did Jesus delay? Why did Jesus delay? Record what I'm going to say to you, first of all

If Jesus came to the place that Mary and Martha asked for, Jesus would perform a healing or a resurrection. Jesus did not do what they asked for, but when He came, He rewarded.

If he was there, Lazarus could not get sick, he would arrive right after, because if he were there he would not get sick. But when Jesus arrived, Lazarus was sick, Jesus would heal him. Jesus would fulfill the desire of Mary and Martha, and would heal Lazarus. But Jesus did not heal Lazarus, because Jesus did much more. Jesus resurrected him. Amen? Do you know what I learn from this?

When you are asking something from God and He doesn't give you the time you want, don't be discouraged because when He arrives He will meet your expectations. Amen? Another detail: at that time, when the person died, the soul of the person, some believed, was around the body for three days. Why did Jesus arrive on the fourth day? For example: Son, come here, stand here for me, please. Imagine that it was at that time, okay?

You can put your hands like this, ready? You can close your eyes. The individual died. It's true that the body didn't die. There it is, the individual died. At that time, some believed, it doesn't mean to say that this is true, but some believed that when the person died, the soul stayed around the body for three days. The boy's parents cried. The parents cried.

It's not a joy, son of God. So the boy's parents cried, but with the hope, with the hope of him being resurrected. So the parents were there, because soon the boy was in trouble, or maybe the soul is out there wandering, as is the word used, right? The soul is on one side, it's on the other and such. Some believed that the soul at that time could return to him, that it was...

So the soul could return on the first day, the soul could return on the second day, the soul could return on the third day. Now, beloved, look at me here. If the soul did not return until the third day, the despair of the family was because literally the boy was what? Can you sit, my beloved? Look at me. Jesus arrived, how many days did he die? Did you understand why?

If Jesus comes on the first day, do you know what the believers would say? "It was the soul that returned." Jesus did not resurrect anything. Remember the daughter of Jairus? When Jesus resurrected, this girl was dead, she was sleeping. If Jesus came on the second day, they would attribute all the merit to the soul that returned.

If Jesus arrived on the third day... Now brothers, Jesus strategically spent two days standing still. Then he took two more days to arrive. He broke the Jewish paradigm. He broke the custom of the time. On the fourth day the body was in decomposition. The man was literally dead. Then the Bible says that Jesus arrived...

Jesus cried, he made a prayer, then he said, "Lazarus, come and stop." And I ask, did the man resurrect when Jesus said yes or no? Do you know what I learn? God has the power to act when human hopes are over. Amen for that? "But my marriage is no longer right." Put it in God's hands, brother.

"Pastor, I have a health problem that is totally deceived by the doctors." Put it in God's hands. "I have a financial problem that really has no solution." Ready, it's time for God to act. He is a specialist in doing the impossible. Amen to that? "Pastor, my husband has no conditions to live with this man anymore." Ask this man to give his heart to God, that you will see that it is he who will not live with you anymore.

Of course not! God transforms! Do you understand? God has the power to act when human hopes are over! Ah, pastor! One day my brother said to me: "Pastor, only God can transform my husband's heart!" And I asked her: "And does the lady need someone else?" Look at the tone that the woman spoke: "Only God!" Have you ever seen someone, some brother, saying: "Man, only God!" What does that mean, my brother?

Do you think that only Allah, only Buddha, only the soul is God? It's only God! God is agile, brother! God has extraordinary powers! Do you want to know something? What do you need? "Oh, pastor, I need the sea to open!" He has this speciality! What is the easiest? A husband! How many here are married and the husband is not from the church? Only you? From the church, right? Already left? The boy is not very trusting, man!

My God! Hey! How many sisters are here and the husband is not part of this church? I'll give you the number. Done. I ask you, which one is easier? The husband of this citizen here, of this sister, baptized in the church, or do we stop the worship now? Is there any beach nearby? Which beach? Done. So we're all going to stop the worship now. We're going to get on the bus and we're going to get there

And we will choose one of you to be the first to put your feet and your name all behind. And the sea will open. What is the easiest? The sea opens for us or the husband of this woman to convert? What is the easiest? I'm going to take a machado and I'm going to say this, machado, float. What is the easiest? You make the machado float or the husband of her to convert? Maybe the machado to float, right? For the husband to convert, people, God opened the sea.

Pastor, I don't believe it. No problem, the sea was opened the same way. God opened the sea, God made the ax of the flood, God made the sun stop, God made it rain, God made it stop raining. Brothers, a mule, a jack, understood? He spoke. Which is easier, my brother? You would arrive with a jack. Is there a jack here? There is not.

What is easier for you? To come to the gays and say: "Gays, talk to me, you bastard!" What is easier for you? The gay? No! Answer me! What is easier for you? The gay? To say: "Stop this woman from turning into a virgin!" What is easier for you?

And sometimes we don't believe it! Do you understand? Sometimes we don't believe it! We put God's power in a shirt of strength! Brothers, we can't put God's power in a shirt of strength! Now, second place, there are people who say: "Do you know why Jesus cried?" Because Lazarus was what? Imagine, you will arrive at the funeral, how do you do? Imagine if Jesus arrived there, imagine?

Don't be discouraged! Let's go! Let's sing! Imagine! Jesus cried because Lazarus was dead. Do you believe that or not? Yes or no? Who thinks so? Raise your left hand. When I look at the Bible, I ask myself, well, if Jesus cried because Lazarus was dead, what does the Bible say when it says, I am the resurrection and the?

Life! "He who believes in Me, even if he is dead..." What does the Bible say? There is a fabulous book, I recommend it to you, "Desired of all nations", on page 530, in the fourth paragraph, it is written like this: "In Christ, the original life, not derived, not borrowed, is life." Amen?

Jesus came and said: "Come out" Do you know what the Bible says? At the time Jesus spoke, brothers, at the time Jesus spoke, the man who was dead four days ago, resurrected. I ask, and your problem? Can't he solve it? Jesus is Lord even

Jesus is Lord and greater than all our impossibilities, even greater than all our impossibilities. When I look at the Bible, I understand and ask the following question to you: Well, I understood, Jesus did not cry for death, Jesus did not cry for delay. The question is: Why did Jesus cry? Can you say it to the person next to you? Even to see if she is alive. Say, "Hey brother, why did Jesus cry? What do you think?"

In my country, there is a popular saying that says: "Men want men." What? How many men here cry? Do men cry in this church? Where are the men who cry? Raise your hand. Ivan, do you cry? Where are the men who cry? Raise your hand. In the Bible, who cries the most? Woman or man? Who cries the most in the Bible? Woman or man? Do you know who cries the most in the Bible?

Men. They are the men who cry the most in the Bible. Now, we know that women have tear glands.

more active than men and men don't like to cry in public except Ivan and his peculiar characteristics now, men don't cry in public because men are more withdrawn, they don't want to show their emotions because from the moment a man cries, some people think they put themselves in a risky situation it seems that crying is a sign of weakness and such now

both in psychology and psychiatry, when you observe that the individual is no longer able to cry, this individual is already seen with attention, because at the time of a consultation, both psychological and psychiatry, the individual can no longer cry, he is seen with a degree of greater attention, because it can be a serious sign of depression. Crying is good,

In fact, crying became a mark of sin. Do you want to see something? When you are born, when a person is born, what is the first thing she does? What if she doesn't cry? What if she gets beaten? So, if she doesn't want to get beaten, it's better to be born doing what? Now, have you noticed? When a child is born, what does she do? What does she do? She cries. Then she is in pain. What does she do?

The child feels colic, what does she do? She's cold, what does she do? She's hot, what does she do? The diaper is dirty, what does she do? She wants to pee, what does she do? Then comes that uncle, all funny, she doesn't go with the uncle's face, what does she do? Soon the tooth starts to grow, what does she do?

Soon she is getting pregnant, and suddenly she fell, hit her mouth on the ground and broke the two teeth that had been born right in front of her. What does she do? Soon she is already older, she doesn't want to go to school, her mother enrolls her in the morning and she has to go to school in the morning, she doesn't want to go to school and the mother goes to school, she doesn't want to go to school. What does she do? Soon she is already at the age of dating, 38 years old.

And then she comes to the Brazilian church, there are not so many people, most of them are married and such. Then she arrives here, she observes the boys and so on, and so on. And then she always arrives late in the worship, to be the last to enter, she sits in the first chair, in the first bench here. She leaves first, so that everyone can observe. She is 40 years old, zero to zero on the board.

There are people who don't date because they don't want to, but there are others who don't date because no one wants to. So it changes a little bit. Then she is desperate, finds a guy, a Spaniard who came here, she said: "Guys, it's this one right here." Then she comes to the citizen and says: "Do you date me?" He says: "God, I'm free!" What does this citizen do? "I'm free!" Soon...

God performs the miracle and she dies. Then the husband is not announced in the propaganda. Because the man is a specialist. Or a bishop to satisfy the man. You can see the man. When he speaks, the microphone is: "Som, hi, hi." He already grosses the voice. He doesn't even have a gross voice. The man is like that. Now, the husband doesn't do what was announced in the propaganda. What does she do?

Soon she will be full of pain, her age has arrived. What does she do? Soon she dies. What does she do? Nothing. Now look at me. And who knows this sister who died? What does she do? Did you notice that there is crying at birth, during life and at death? When a person dies, she just doesn't cry because there is no way to die. Crying in the same way that there is no way to sleep and wake up the body.

I slept, woke up and I'm dead, there's no way. There's no way you can sleep, wake up dead, there's no way either. The dead cry. Now, there's crying at birth, there's crying during life, and, beloved, there's crying at death. The person is dead and everyone is crying. Now, you never asked yourself why, why when we are born we don't smile? Wouldn't it be better? Imagine! You're in prison for nine months, in prison, brother!

only water, vendaval, no action, you are in prison for 9 months, you were released, you could get out of the belly, but why does the human being cry? Have you ever wondered? Because beloved, you enter this world, you already understand that the mark registered in sin is crying, you understand why in heaven we will not have what in heaven? Crying, brothers,

Even for babies there is a proverb that says: "Who doesn't cry?" What does it say there? So my friend, while you and I live down here, we will live doing the baby. We will live crying. Then there are people who say: "Oh, I don't want to cry anymore." Then ask to die. Because good, you don't cry. Revelation 21:4, I need to look. Look here for me, don't breathe now. Look at me.

The Bible says: "He will dry his eyes and cry." Give your heart to Christ and wait for Him to return. Because when we go up and live with Him, we will be happy.

for all, always. Amen? Now, while we live down here, brothers, there is no way, while we live here on this earth, we will cry and it will not be easy. Now, let me tell you something, you know that there are some reasons that make us cry, for example, bad emotions. When something bad happens in our life, do we cry or not? Cry or not cry? And when something good happens, do we cry? What? Good thing? So tell me a good thing for a human being to cry.

I was in Bahia with this girl here. Where am I going with this creature here? Amen? Some even ask: "Is it your security?" No, my wife. I was in Bahia with this girl here. We were newly married. When I married her, we had faith, hope and love. We had nothing. It's a matter of vanity. This girl had a fridge. Look what a sin. A fridge. What is this? A fridge.

At the time of Jesus, there was no ice cream. I put the ice cream now. I married her. And then we went to perform a week of prayer. We were newly married, we had nothing. I bought some things after we got married. I remember I paid 300 reais.

I bought some things there and such The refrigerator I bought was already... We bought from the theologians, right? Who were doing theology I went away, sold the furniture to one Then I saw the four years, went away, came back to the other, went away Now I found out that I bought from the person who is my president today You have an idea, today he is the president and I work with him there I was even thinking, did I pay everything? But we bought everything

She opened the fridge and never forgot me. When she opened the fridge, the door opened and saw everything. I spent more money paying for the energy than I spent for the new furniture in the house. And then we were still in the Ia, and soon we went to do a week of prayer in Bahia. I went to preach, I preached one night, I preached again. Is there any Baiano here? There is not? You are not a Baiano? You are a Baiano? Are you from Bahia? Do you know the Baiano?

But you have a profile. You have a profile, but... It's a standard for people in Bahia. Now, we were there in Bahia. I prayed one night, I prayed later, praying, praying, praying, and so on. And then, when it ended like this, the week was over, the brothers knew that we were newly married. It ended like this, the last moment. The next day I was going to travel to Iaen, which is the faculty of theology. I was going to travel at 5 am. And I was staying at the house of a sister.

And the pastor doesn't bother anyone. Amen? So, I was there with my sister, but I thought I had to get there early to not bother my sister and such. When that night ended, usually, it doesn't happen like this, right? You stay there, "Good night, God bless you, good night" and such. The preacher stays there at the door. The brothers spent the whole night talking to us and such. That night, people passed by me without saying anything. And it was the last night. Not even like this, "Glory to God, God came to me and said nothing." People all went away.

I also entered the church. I passed by and looked up. I had to contextualize. The last person or elder, the leader of the church, came to me and said: "Pastor..." I was not a pastor, I did theology. But when you are studying in college, they call you pastor. There are few pastors in the church, so when you think you're going to do theology, they call you pastor. Okay, I was there. The pastor is like this: "God visited me..." When the brother started this conversation, "God visited me..."

And he told me that a man would spend the whole night, this night, studying with me the book of Daniel and Revelation. But the whole night! Secret when someone says something like that to you? I would never ask: "It was me, who is it?" I would never ask that. When he said: "And a man would be with me the whole night!" I just said like this: "Well, you can't even..." Because my brother would say: "Wait, what's up?"

The other one was at 5 am. Then my brother realized and said: "Pastor, God told me that you will go tonight and we will study the apocalypse verse by verse." I looked at him and said: "Brother, but God didn't tell me anything." "He just told you, God. He didn't even give me a ticket, he didn't even give me a card. He just told you." "No, we're going tonight." Ok, I went to my brother's house. "We arrived, brother. Have you already studied the apocalypse?"

Daniel, I'm here. And take a shifter to one side, and a rib to the other, and a wing, and a lion, and a leopard, and a beast, and I don't know what. It was 11 o'clock at night and no dinner. I got to the bridge when my brother said: "Pastor, and this wing here?" I said: "What are you talking about wings?" I'm not good at the subject here. It's like this, brother. Guys, here in Bahia it's different from Ceará. I'm from Ceará.

At 11 o'clock at night, there is already a dinner in my land. It's 11 o'clock and we haven't had dinner yet, guys! Then my brother: "Ahhh, dinner!" Then my wife is there in the kitchen, you know how it is, right? The wife is full: "Sister, do you want help?" Then the other: "No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no

Then my brother: "Oh, dinner!" Then my sister got confused, what word could I use here? She ended up spending time in dialogue with her, then my sister: "My God, now, people!" The dinner ended up getting cold because I said: "Well, then bring it cold because I like cold food." "Bring the beans with ice, there's nothing better." "Let's have dinner." I have a code there for my wife.

I just have a sign for her. "Thank you, brother. Time for everything. Time to have dinner, time to read the Bible, time to sleep, time for everything." Then the brother said, "No, pastor, don't go away." Then it was midnight, almost one o'clock in the morning. I said, "Brother, we need to go, we have to travel five o'clock in the morning." "Pastor, so let's do this: I'm going with you, I'm going to leave you, but we're going on foot."

Because we keep talking until there. Me, her and her husband. The couple. We were talking, and again, I was watching from the side, and watching the statue, and I don't know what, and so on. When I got to the house where we were staying, I didn't want to bother my sister, and my brother was talking, and good evening, and the brother next to me, and I said, "Man, this brother..." Do you know that brother Chiclete?

My brother was turning around and I said: "Man, is this a pastor's post?" I like to say: "Brother, you don't do theology, you have a bad foot!" "Do you want to be a pastor? How is that?" And my brother was there, and I realized that the door was open, I pushed the door, I went in, to not bother him, I opened the door. When I opened the door, brothers, the lights went on, he flew.

"Crendy" Of everything that is a "curato" There's a window, a "crendy" that jumps off the table, that's on the couch That crowd of people, everyone started singing "Congratulations to you, on this dear date, many happiness, many years" It wasn't my birthday

What did I imagine at the time? You have to pay attention, right? It's the birthday of the old man's wife and he stayed with me all this time so I could congratulate him for this whole time. So I said, let's agitate this here. I said, congratulations to you. Soon it was not her birthday. It was not mine. And it was not my wife's. I asked, whose birthday is it?

You were already in a group of people that everyone knows what to say. I asked: "What's my birthday?" Then someone said: "Pastor, I don't know anyone." I said: "Oh my God, I'm in Bahia, in Mauro, in Rio." No one celebrating their birthday and at the end of the day everyone congratulating. My God, the people are excited! Then they said: "No, pastor, all this is for you." Brothers, as I was newly married, they pulled a game of cards, a game of cards.

It was a gift. When I looked at it, I said: "My God, the date of my birthday is wrong." "But I'm not going to declare my birthday today." "I'm going to change the date of my birth to today." Then I said: "My God, what now?" For me to say it wasn't my birthday, I had to tell the truth. Brothers, at the time... Have you ever sinned once in your life? Conscious? At the time I remembered, you know who? Abraham. Abraham lied.

And he was the father of faith. Then I thought: I'm not even a pastor yet, so if the father of faith lied, imagine me not even being educated yet. So I'm going to lie lightly, "Raphael Aguilé, get out, you don't know, congratulations!" But at the time I said: "I can't lie." And then, soon after, I said: "Brothers, yes." Then when I looked at her in the face, she did this: "Yes, brothers, yes, look well."

"What a beautiful party!" "But it's not my birthday!" Then the sister said: "Pastor, we know it's not your birthday." I didn't understand anything. "Pastor, we prepared a party for you. We went out in the street, but you are not here." "Do you think this brother was in your house?" "Don't you know Apocalypse? Daniel?" "You said something wrong!"

While the last family didn't arrive, knowing that the brother was newly married, while the last family was with his brother, while the last family didn't arrive, we didn't release the brother. The brother came and we... Then, at that time, I wanted to get there only at 6 am. I said: "My God!" "Yes, pastor, now the brother ruined everything!" Because when we get to the other people's house, pastor, we don't get there at the door like the others.

We play the bell, we beat the drum, we call. What was the secret? When the person played the bell, beat the drum, did anything, the owner of the house, the owner of the residence would leave, the master would enter, and when the master entered, we would start the choir, everyone would sing a song for the master. When the master arrived, it was that agitation: "Come on, shut up, shut up!"

And that thing, and soon the door opened once, and the little boy looked at the little boy and said: "Congratulations, brother!" So we don't pass the truth, but I'm just going to say it. Then, soon, they presented the "panel game". This is from the X family. Then they put it on their arms, "panel game". Then, soon, the "cloth game". I don't know what the... What is that thing? "Panel of Prez" What a deal!

Then when I looked at my husband, we were receiving everything from her, from the others. When I looked at her, do you know how she was? Then the sisters put all that pressure, right? Enough! Oh, sisters, sister, back there, I'm suffering. And such, and such. Then I realized that she was smart. The bigger the gift, the bigger the anguish. The bigger the despair, you know? It's a spoon kit. Little one like this, spoon kit.

And in a little while, a bed game! In a little while, the brothers stopped, around 1 am, and everyone was crying, crying for me. I said, "My God, oh, people, I'm not easy to cry for." Each one has his own way, right? Here's the opposite, I'm the tip and there's the other tip. And I'm not easy to cry for, you know? But the brothers stopped to deliver the gifts.

And my shoulder was like... Now it's not like that anymore. And I was like... And my brother was crying, crying... And my shoulder was like... Brothers, that night I had to... That night I closed my eyes like this... Do you know when you do this? You start like this... There's nothing and you're like this... You almost fall asleep like this... You're like this...

And the people were looking at me like that, in suspense, and everyone was like "Crying, a lot of pressure, people crying, crying" And I was like this, and nothing to cry about, and I started to imagine a tragedy Then I started to think about my mother being run over I tried to imagine any kind of tragedy, in short, I couldn't cry I looked at my brothers and said "Brother, I don't know if you want to deliver this thing, can you deliver it? Because I think we already received it, it's in good shape" When I looked at her

Do you know what she kept doing? Crying Because we had nothing And from that day on, everything was like this, in the hand Panela, I don't know what else It was so interesting that I almost went to a party the next day I want a party, I want some things Guys, like that, my God And the woman crying, now why did she cry? The brothers gave her a panela Look, this is the bill for you to pay It was for free, people Good thing And do you know what the woman was doing? What?

crying, I ask you, good thing, does it make a person cry? Yes or no? And if it's very good, does it make a person cry? Yes or no? Now I ask you, and in the case of Jesus, why did Jesus cry? Look here at the Bible, was it a good thing? Was it a bad thing? Ask who's next to you to close it for us. Ask there, did Jesus cry? Was it a good thing or a bad thing? Ask there. Good thing or bad thing? Look here at me, look.

Patriarchs and Prophets book, page 56, second paragraph, is written as follows: "Witnessing them, the fall of the leaves..." the flowers? "The fall of the leaves..."

...in the bathroom, they cried more deeply than today men cry for their bodies. Brothers, the first cry of the human race was the cry of Adam, it was the cry of Eve, when they saw the first dry leaf fall to the ground. Then, soon after, you look at the Bible, several people cried in the Bible. First Psalm 110, the Bible says that Anna cried abundantly. Second Kings, when you look at the Bible, it says that King Ezekiel cried a lot because he knew he was going to die. Soon

you look at several men in the Bible, Peter for example, the Bible says so, Peter cried bitterly, David, the Bible says so, make my bed to swim in the cry and wet my milk with tears, David cried deeply, now the question is, if everyone in the Bible cried and had a reason, then Jesus cried, obviously it is the smallest verse of the New Testament, so there is a reason, first of all, do you know why Jesus cried? Record it now, incredulity,

When Jesus arrived in that place, brothers, people who saw Jesus healing in Jerusalem, Jerusalem is Bethany, 3 km away, people who saw Jesus healing there, Jerusalem, were in Bethany and continued to be unbelievers. Look here in my eyes, I don't know what's worse, not believing in God or believing in God and living as if He never existed. There are people who believe in God, but live as if He never existed.

Secondly, do you know why Jesus cried? Because he saw falsehood. Thirdly, why did Jesus cry? He saw hypocrisy. Look here in my eyes. John chapter 11. The Bible says that Lazarus was resurrected. Does it say that at the end? Lazarus resurrected. The people were crying for Lazarus. The people were crying for Lazarus. In chapter 12, Jesus resurrected in chapter 11 Lazarus. In chapter 12, who cried because Lazarus was dead? Do you know what the Bible says in chapter 12?

They were trying to kill Lazarus again. How does the Bible work? Do you know why Jesus cried? Just look at it. "And in Isaac the Sadducees did not speak to the Pharisees." Jesus saw the perdition. Jesus saw that many people who were there were totally lost and would get lost in the city of Jerusalem. When Jesus looked at that situation, Jesus saw that many were transgressing the law of God. Now,

Look at this: incredulity, falsehood, hypocrisy, enmity, perdition, transgression and, last but not least, sin. Believe me, Jesus saw my life, Jesus saw your life, and when Jesus saw our life, the smallest verse of the New Testament was written. And the Bible says: Jesus... We are going to pray now, and I have a question to ask you. Today, if the text were rewritten, looking at you,

How could that be? Are you making Jesus smile or cry? When you are an unbeliever, when you believe in God, but live as if He did not exist, Jesus cries. When Jesus sees the enmity, sometimes between people who go to the same church, the same family, Jesus cries. When Jesus sees transgression, when Jesus sees suffering,

When Jesus sees all this hypocrisy, falsehood, there are people who are neither Christians nor mundan, because they are both things at the same time. When John 11 was written, verse 35, the smallest verse of the New Testament. But look at me, you, me, we appear in Jesus' mind. And Jesus cried! But time passed, and we are here tonight. And the question is:

Because of you. Is Jesus smiling or crying? Tonight you have to think. You are a human being. But you have to deal with the feelings of the celestial beings. You are a human being. You are not one more in the world. You are here in the United States. You have the power to change the feeling in heaven. Because when you are far from God, Jesus cries.

When you are close to God, but your spirit, your heart, your mind is totally far away. When God is not a priority in your life, friend, Jesus cries. And do you know what is the final result of the cry? First, when Jesus returns, do you know what the Bible says? This here, look. When Jesus returns, do you know what will happen? Two groups. One will be on the right side, one will be on the left side. Do you know what the Bible says? Like this, look. I'll tell you in advance, okay? "There shall be..." Do you know what? "Crying!"

and Angelides. "Oh, pastor, but who will be there?" "No, for sure, who will be there are those who did not want to know anything about God, drugged and such." Do you think so? Maybe in that group can be someone who is here tonight. The message is clear as a rainbow to your eyes. You are participating in a week of prayer. You approached God, but you were never God. You lived with Him, but did not surrender to Him.

Judas walked with Christ, brothers Judas was a disciple He did not give up his heart, he did nothing else, he did nothing else He was with Jesus out of interest He exchanged Jesus for anything, even for 30 silver coins When Jesus returns, who will be in that group, beloved? When Jesus arrives, you will be in the other side By the way, for us to pray here, today you are in the other side You are making Jesus laugh or cry

Revelation 21:4 We will suffer, it will not be easy, we will give up some things. But when we get there, do you know what the Bible says? "He will wash away all evil eye." Amen? The cry can last a night. What does the Bible say? It will go by: "Blessed are those who cry." Will they? In this 2, you can move with the feelings of God.

The Bible says: "The joy of heaven is when the sinner, if tonight, you repent from your heart, and if you decide to serve Jesus forever, if you give your life to Christ..." It's not walking, it's not going to church. Are you thinking you sit here on the bench, that you play the instrument, that you come here and lead? Are you thinking of doing it? That's it, this is my passport to salvation. No, because Judas

He walked with them. Do you know who washed the feet of Judas at the Holy Mass? Do you know who washed the feet of Judas? Jesus! Touch, sing, sit, do not save! Do you know what saves? It's to deliver. And this night, Jesus asked me to tell you that He does not want your heart, He does not want your mind, He wants you complete. How many of you tonight would like to say: "Oh God, I want to deliver everything I have, everything I am, into your hands."

I don't just want to sit, play, sing or preach. I want tonight to surrender myself. Because tonight I want to put a joy, a smile on Jesus' side. Is there anyone here tonight who would like to stand up in the name of Jesus? Is there anyone here tonight? It's not just sitting, it's not just singing. At this moment you will do the first part of the prayer and I will conclude with a prayer here in front.

30 seconds you and God. Pastor, maybe you are a guest. I don't know how to pray like this very well. The power is not in who prays. The power is in who hears. And God will hear the sound of your heart. 30 seconds. Speak to God. Have you made Jesus cry? How about asking forgiveness? How about asking forgiveness? And how about in 30 seconds you surrender yourself from body to soul? 30 seconds. The way you know. Speak to God.

Get strength so that you can make Jesus smile. God's feelings, as incredible as they may seem, God's feelings are in your hands. It's you and God now. Great God, I'm sorry we made you cry. I'm sorry we almost every day tear out tears from the Lord. Tonight we want to ask you for forgiveness for our sins. Jesus, we love you. In fact, Father, we can't live without the Lord.

And we don't want to disappoint you. We thank you because the Lord created us. We thank you because the Lord saved us. But from tonight, Lord, we want every day, by your grace, to put a smile on your side. We want to forget what is left behind. And from tonight, we want to proceed, Lord, to the target. Bless each person who is here tonight. Give strength to this people so that through thoughts,

of attitudes, each one of us here, may daily put a smile on the side of Jesus. May your blessing and your grace reach all of us. We ask you with great affection, because the truth is, God, we always want to be in the best place in the world, every moment! And we don't want to leave your presence. We are going home now, but that doesn't mean we're going to leave your presence. May the Lord remain with us.

The Lord uses His omnipresence and comes out of the heart of each person in the presence. Maybe different cars will go out to different destinations, but may the same Jesus be with us. People will leave in different ways here, but may the Lord accompany each person in the name of the Father, the Son and the Holy Spirit. Look at those on your side in these two and say: "You are responsible for the feelings of God."

If you forgot everything that was said tonight, just record it. God bless you and see you tomorrow morning. Tomorrow morning, what time is it here, brothers? 9:30. 9:30 we will be here. Pastors, we will sleep and we have to be here tomorrow, it's to not even try to be sinful. 9:30 in the morning we will be here. God bless you, brothers of Jesus.
