00:00:02.579 --> 00:00:08.119
Welcome to Burning Lamb Podcast A daily refresh

00:00:08.119 --> 00:00:12.619
for your life Jesus is the center of everything

00:00:12.619 --> 00:00:29.920
we do Burning Lamb Church So on this day we're

00:00:29.920 --> 00:00:31.879
going to continue with a very special series.

00:00:36.660 --> 00:00:39.520
The Lord has been teaching us on how to abide

00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:45.880
in Him. This has been a series that has transformed

00:00:45.880 --> 00:00:53.020
our hearts, our character, and He has given us

00:00:53.020 --> 00:00:58.520
the key tools to be able to remain in this walk.

00:00:58.579 --> 00:01:04.879
What a week we had of abiding in Him. of Christ,

00:01:05.180 --> 00:01:15.760
right? Everything happened. For the church, it's

00:01:15.760 --> 00:01:23.640
very important to be aware of the times. If the

00:01:23.640 --> 00:01:26.060
church isn't aware of the times, then we become

00:01:26.060 --> 00:01:31.760
irrelevant. We stop being the salt of this world.

00:01:34.079 --> 00:01:40.040
And the Lord called us to be that. And that is

00:01:40.040 --> 00:01:42.859
why it's so important to be aware. Because your

00:01:42.859 --> 00:01:50.659
prayer is important. Because your voice on this

00:01:50.659 --> 00:01:59.189
earth is important. Because each one of us that

00:01:59.189 --> 00:02:02.609
are here, we carry a point of influence in our

00:02:02.609 --> 00:02:07.930
surroundings. You carry power within you. This

00:02:07.930 --> 00:02:18.620
week we had a very sad news about a A brother

00:02:18.620 --> 00:02:23.900
in the faith. He was assassinated. He was silent.

00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:30.620
Through hate. Through the way of not being able

00:02:30.620 --> 00:02:37.800
to tolerate him. But his voice has been a very

00:02:37.800 --> 00:02:41.150
prophetic. prophetic voice on this nation, especially

00:02:41.150 --> 00:02:51.509
in universities and schools, where the Word of

00:02:51.509 --> 00:02:56.169
God was preached without any compromise. It wasn't

00:02:56.169 --> 00:03:03.219
compromised. the evidence of Jesus was proven.

00:03:06.280 --> 00:03:08.840
And now this is the time for the church to arise.

00:03:11.860 --> 00:03:14.039
This is the time for you and I to assume our

00:03:14.039 --> 00:03:20.599
position. Today is the day the Lord is calling

00:03:20.599 --> 00:03:27.599
us from a place of comfort. Because it has been

00:03:27.599 --> 00:03:34.090
enough, our point of... of comfort, where we

00:03:34.090 --> 00:03:38.969
have heard more the sound of the world. And it's

00:03:38.969 --> 00:03:42.729
time for the church to rise and speak. This is

00:03:42.729 --> 00:03:44.750
the time for the church to rise up and speak.

00:03:47.610 --> 00:03:53.930
Today, let's go to John 15. So we're going to

00:03:53.930 --> 00:04:00.060
start from verse four forward. John chapter 15

00:04:00.060 --> 00:04:31.180
verse 4 Yo soy la vi y ustedes las ramas el que

00:04:31.180 --> 00:04:37.639
permanece en mí como yo en él darás mucho fruto

00:04:37.639 --> 00:04:46.420
separados de mí nada pueden hacer el que no permanece

00:04:46.420 --> 00:04:52.610
en mí es desechado y se seca como las ramas que

00:04:52.610 --> 00:04:57.990
se recogen y se arrojan al fuego y se queman.

00:04:58.290 --> 00:05:03.730
Si permanecen en mi y mis palabras permanecen

00:05:03.730 --> 00:05:07.949
en ustedes, entonces pidan todo lo que quieran

00:05:07.949 --> 00:05:12.209
y se les concederá. Mi padre es glorificado cuando

00:05:12.209 --> 00:05:19.769
ustedes dan mucho fruto y muestran así that are

00:05:19.769 --> 00:05:24.189
my disciples. Just as the Father has loved me,

00:05:24.930 --> 00:05:32.910
I have also loved you. Stay in my love. If you

00:05:32.910 --> 00:05:37.790
obey my commandments, you will remain in my love.

00:05:39.550 --> 00:05:43.670
Just as I have obeyed the commandments of my

00:05:43.670 --> 00:05:49.129
Father and I remain in his love. les he dicho

00:05:49.129 --> 00:05:55.410
esto para que tenga mi alegría y así su alegría

00:05:55.410 --> 00:06:02.910
sea completa este es mi mandamiento que se amen

00:06:02.910 --> 00:06:07.970
los unos a los otros así como yo los he amado

00:06:07.970 --> 00:06:12.870
a ustedes nadie tiene mayor amor nadie tiene

00:06:12.870 --> 00:06:16.470
un amor más grande que aquel que da su vida por

00:06:16.470 --> 00:06:22.800
sus amigos Ustedes son mis amigos si hacen lo

00:06:22.800 --> 00:06:27.600
que yo les mando. Ya no los llamo siervo, porque

00:06:27.600 --> 00:06:33.939
el siervo no está al tanto de lo que hace su

00:06:33.939 --> 00:06:40.300
amo. Los he llamado mis amigos porque todo lo

00:06:40.300 --> 00:06:45.939
que a mi padre le oí decir se les he dado a conocer.

00:06:46.459 --> 00:06:51.100
a ustedes y ustedes no me escogieron a mí sino

00:06:51.100 --> 00:06:56.120
que yo los escogí a ustedes y los comisioné para

00:06:56.120 --> 00:07:03.399
que vayan y den fruto y fruto que perdure y así

00:07:03.399 --> 00:07:08.240
el padre le dará todo lo que pidan en mi nombre

00:07:08.240 --> 00:07:13.680
ese es mi mandamiento que se amen los unos a

00:07:13.680 --> 00:07:17.970
los otros you could read it in English. Okay,

00:07:18.089 --> 00:07:20.490
so we're going to go to John 15, chapter 15,

00:07:21.069 --> 00:07:25.060
verse 4. Abide in me, and I in you, as the branch

00:07:25.060 --> 00:07:27.800
cannot bear fruit of itself. Unless it abides

00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:30.379
in the vine, neither can you, unless you abide

00:07:30.379 --> 00:07:33.939
in me. I am the vine, you are the branches. He

00:07:33.939 --> 00:07:37.120
who abides in me, and I in him, bears much fruit,

00:07:37.319 --> 00:07:39.819
for without me you can do nothing. If anyone

00:07:39.819 --> 00:07:43.779
does not abide in me, he is cast out as a branch

00:07:43.779 --> 00:07:46.360
and is withered, and gather them and throw them

00:07:46.360 --> 00:07:49.000
in the fire and they are burned. If you abide

00:07:49.000 --> 00:07:51.439
in me and my words abide in you, you will ask

00:07:51.439 --> 00:07:53.550
whatever you desire, and it shall be done for

00:07:53.550 --> 00:07:57.129
you. By this my Father is glorified, that you

00:07:57.129 --> 00:07:59.449
bear much fruit, so you will be my disciples.

00:07:59.910 --> 00:08:02.250
And as the Father loved me, I have also loved

00:08:02.250 --> 00:08:05.449
you, abiding my love. If you keep my commandments,

00:08:05.750 --> 00:08:09.170
you will abide in my love, just as I have kept

00:08:09.170 --> 00:08:11.949
my Father's commandments. and I abide in his

00:08:11.949 --> 00:08:14.610
love. These things I have spoken to you that

00:08:14.610 --> 00:08:18.589
my joy may remain in you and that your joy may

00:08:18.589 --> 00:08:21.269
be full. This is my commandment that you have

00:08:21.269 --> 00:08:24.050
done, that you have loved one another as I have

00:08:24.050 --> 00:08:28.269
loved you. Greater love has no one than this.

00:08:28.519 --> 00:08:31.519
than to lay down one's life for his friend. You

00:08:31.519 --> 00:08:34.220
are my friends if you do whatever I command you.

00:08:34.360 --> 00:08:36.779
No longer do I call you servants, for a servant

00:08:36.779 --> 00:08:39.580
does not know what his master is doing. But I

00:08:39.580 --> 00:08:41.120
have called you my friends for all the things

00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:44.000
that I have heard my father and I have made known

00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:46.799
to you. You did not choose me, but I have chose

00:08:46.799 --> 00:08:49.039
you and appointed you that you should go and

00:08:49.039 --> 00:08:52.100
bear fruit and that your fruit should remain.

00:08:52.440 --> 00:08:55.539
That whatever you ask my father in my name, he

00:08:55.539 --> 00:08:58.320
may give you. These things I command. that you

00:08:58.320 --> 00:09:01.500
love one another. If the world hates you, you

00:09:01.500 --> 00:09:04.799
know that it hated me before it hated you. If

00:09:04.799 --> 00:09:08.360
you were of this world, the world would love

00:09:08.360 --> 00:09:10.940
its own, yet because you're not of this world,

00:09:11.080 --> 00:09:13.600
but I chose you out of the world, therefore the

00:09:13.600 --> 00:09:16.720
world hates you. Remember the word that I said

00:09:16.720 --> 00:09:19.279
to you, a servant is not greater than the master.

00:09:19.759 --> 00:09:22.340
If they persecuted me, they will also persecute

00:09:22.340 --> 00:09:26.179
you. If they keep my word, they will keep yours

00:09:26.179 --> 00:09:29.440
also. but all these things they will do to you

00:09:29.440 --> 00:09:32.320
for my name's sake because they do not know me

00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:36.039
who sent me I had not come and spoken to you

00:09:36.039 --> 00:09:39.500
they have come they have no sin but now they

00:09:39.500 --> 00:09:43.340
have no excuse for their sin he who hates me

00:09:43.340 --> 00:09:51.759
hates my father also Lord we honor the saints

00:09:51.759 --> 00:09:59.179
of your word this morning. We pray that this

00:09:59.179 --> 00:10:09.940
word is planted in our being. So in John 15 there

00:10:09.940 --> 00:10:12.460
are instructions of eternal life for you and

00:10:12.460 --> 00:10:23.230
I. It's a word that will forever remain fresh

00:10:23.230 --> 00:10:28.350
and it will be a reminder for our lives. That's

00:10:28.350 --> 00:10:33.409
why the Word of God doesn't change. That's why

00:10:33.409 --> 00:10:38.570
it remains forever and ever. And it will always

00:10:38.570 --> 00:10:43.429
be as effective. But we're going to break this

00:10:43.429 --> 00:10:53.029
down a bit. It says abiding me. This word abide

00:10:53.029 --> 00:10:59.789
comes from the word menos. It means to remain

00:10:59.789 --> 00:11:05.470
constant. That's what the Lord was telling the

00:11:05.470 --> 00:11:18.419
church and His disciples. Stay firm. Remain constant.

00:11:20.700 --> 00:11:26.879
But there is something that I like here. It says

00:11:26.879 --> 00:11:33.779
stay firm with the ability to withhold. To bear.

00:11:35.350 --> 00:11:48.809
To resist a strike. So Jesus wasn't just saying,

00:11:49.090 --> 00:11:51.470
so remain here by me and let's just be friends.

00:11:51.769 --> 00:12:00.129
And let's just chill. Let's just soak in the

00:12:00.129 --> 00:12:07.389
presence. He was saying, abiding me in a firm

00:12:07.389 --> 00:12:14.590
way, with strength, with the ability to bear.

00:12:16.330 --> 00:12:20.330
Because in the days to come, you're going to

00:12:20.330 --> 00:12:27.830
need this. The word meno also means to remain

00:12:27.830 --> 00:12:36.129
without mixtures So the Lord was telling the

00:12:36.129 --> 00:12:38.909
church remain pure with the message of the gospel

00:12:39.579 --> 00:12:44.500
It's enough with so many mixtures that we have

00:12:44.500 --> 00:12:52.539
nowadays. Back then they also had mixtures. Is

00:12:52.539 --> 00:12:56.840
the Father worshipped here or there? Is this

00:12:56.840 --> 00:13:02.620
the way, this is not the way? But the message

00:13:02.620 --> 00:13:08.889
of Jesus when He says to remain, It says to remain

00:13:08.889 --> 00:13:16.509
to My words and do not mix them. Do not interpret

00:13:16.509 --> 00:13:24.870
these your own way. Abide in Me just as I abide

00:13:24.870 --> 00:13:32.389
in you. It says He who does not abide in Me is

00:13:32.389 --> 00:13:42.720
withered. That's a strong word. When you cast

00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:44.500
someone out, it's not that you keep somebody

00:13:44.500 --> 00:13:51.059
away from you. That word to be cast, it comes

00:13:51.059 --> 00:13:58.309
from a word that means, To be cast to the care

00:13:58.309 --> 00:14:04.250
of another. So in other words he would say, you're

00:14:04.250 --> 00:14:08.929
no longer under my care. Who do you think he

00:14:08.929 --> 00:14:12.950
was casting them to the care of who? This is

00:14:12.950 --> 00:14:21.049
a strong word. It says, he who does not abide

00:14:21.049 --> 00:14:26.769
in me is cast. He's given to the care of another.

00:14:30.190 --> 00:14:34.110
If you abide in Me and My words, and when He

00:14:34.110 --> 00:14:44.149
says My words, it refers to the word Rema. It

00:14:44.149 --> 00:14:47.190
means the words or sayings of the mouth of God,

00:14:47.190 --> 00:14:56.200
what Jesus was teaching us, without a self -interpretation.

00:14:56.620 --> 00:15:03.980
It is what it is. Let's not try to get a leg

00:15:03.980 --> 00:15:09.840
to the cat. Let's not try to complicate the Gospel.

00:15:10.220 --> 00:15:15.769
When Jesus made it so simple, There are very

00:15:15.769 --> 00:15:21.590
clear instructions, abide in me and I in you.

00:15:26.190 --> 00:15:28.470
And here there is a very key word and we spoke

00:15:28.470 --> 00:15:35.509
about this during the pre -retreat. The word

00:15:35.509 --> 00:15:37.750
abide here, it makes reference to the word union.

00:15:42.230 --> 00:15:45.889
This word union is as though you mix two particles

00:15:45.889 --> 00:15:52.929
to the point that you're not able to recognize

00:15:52.929 --> 00:15:59.529
the former nature of that. So abide in me, function

00:15:59.529 --> 00:16:06.350
in me, let's become one, and there won't be any

00:16:06.350 --> 00:16:11.750
memory of the past. You mix water with red ink,

00:16:12.370 --> 00:16:17.230
you mix it. When you mix that water, what color

00:16:17.230 --> 00:16:23.740
does the water become? Red, right? If you say

00:16:23.740 --> 00:16:28.120
green, we're gonna pray for you. So when you

00:16:28.120 --> 00:16:35.000
mix it together, it becomes red. When you see

00:16:35.000 --> 00:16:36.980
the red water, can you see how the water looked

00:16:36.980 --> 00:16:41.299
like before? There is no way to see the division.

00:16:45.379 --> 00:16:47.960
That's what Jesus was referring to, that when

00:16:47.960 --> 00:16:56.600
they see Him, they see Him. That when they see

00:16:56.600 --> 00:17:05.309
us, they see Jesus. Jesus, he speaks about re

00:17:05.309 --> 00:17:09.990
-abiding in him and about the vine. He says,

00:17:10.150 --> 00:17:16.329
I am the vine and you are the branches. So let's

00:17:16.329 --> 00:17:28.509
see a vine here. This is a vine. The grapes are

00:17:28.509 --> 00:17:35.190
the fruit. You can see the branch. Right? If

00:17:35.190 --> 00:17:42.970
you see the branch, it looks like this. And from

00:17:42.970 --> 00:17:47.710
the branches, something comes out. And from that,

00:17:47.809 --> 00:17:53.630
then you see a fruit. So the fruit doesn't even

00:17:53.630 --> 00:17:57.569
come out directly from the branch. It says, you

00:17:57.569 --> 00:18:03.440
are the branches. But the fruit, you don't bear

00:18:03.440 --> 00:18:08.740
the fruit. The fruit is connected to something

00:18:08.740 --> 00:18:14.900
else. That's why nowadays we have a very frustrated

00:18:14.900 --> 00:18:19.660
church, trying to produce fruit. Jesus is very

00:18:19.660 --> 00:18:27.920
specific when He relates us to life. You are

00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:35.660
the branches, and I am the vine. But if you see

00:18:35.660 --> 00:18:37.240
something there, there is something that is really

00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:45.140
producing the fruit. Nowadays the church is so

00:18:45.140 --> 00:18:49.740
tired of trying to produce, but we can do this

00:18:49.740 --> 00:18:55.589
on our own strength. When we talk about abiding

00:18:55.589 --> 00:19:05.890
in Him, this is making reference to a union that

00:19:05.890 --> 00:19:11.490
is a constant and growing relationship. It doesn't

00:19:11.490 --> 00:19:20.740
speak as though it is an event. Like we connect

00:19:20.740 --> 00:19:27.559
to the vine when we are in a service. When you

00:19:27.559 --> 00:19:34.180
come to church, this is an event. An event does

00:19:34.180 --> 00:19:36.339
not produce fruit in your life. Glory to God

00:19:36.339 --> 00:19:41.920
for the conferences. Glory to God for the services.

00:19:42.279 --> 00:19:48.779
But if you don't have a relationship with the

00:19:48.779 --> 00:19:50.579
Son of God, there is no fruit that you can bear.

00:19:50.839 --> 00:19:58.319
Jesus makes a reference of a vine that is completely

00:19:58.319 --> 00:20:06.460
stuck to the tree. A vine and a branch. One is

00:20:06.460 --> 00:20:11.700
greater than the other. One gives life, a nutritious

00:20:11.700 --> 00:20:17.079
life. The necessary surroundings and environments

00:20:17.079 --> 00:20:22.700
so the other one can live. because of the tree.

00:20:24.890 --> 00:20:32.630
There is a branch. Nowadays we live in a culture

00:20:32.630 --> 00:20:35.430
where the center of everything is us. We do it

00:20:35.430 --> 00:20:47.250
for us and because of us. With motives that are

00:20:47.250 --> 00:20:52.990
hidden with a personal agenda. trying to produce

00:20:52.990 --> 00:20:59.769
fruit so they can see my tree. And you know how

00:20:59.769 --> 00:21:06.369
the Christians, they hide this. Oh, thanks to

00:21:06.369 --> 00:21:18.160
the Lord. Thank God. It was because of God. How

00:21:18.160 --> 00:21:20.759
much of this fruit is real by the Spirit of God

00:21:20.759 --> 00:21:28.220
and not by the human strength? Every good fruit

00:21:28.220 --> 00:21:30.799
is highlighted out of this union with the tree.

00:21:33.960 --> 00:21:36.200
A rotten tree cannot produce something good.

00:21:41.799 --> 00:21:44.220
That's why with our perfect union with the vine,

00:21:44.319 --> 00:21:50.200
with the tree which is God, we're able to produce

00:21:50.200 --> 00:21:57.000
good fruits. The fruits of the Spirit are for

00:21:57.000 --> 00:22:01.440
the earth. When we go to heaven we will need

00:22:01.440 --> 00:22:07.839
this. We're cultivating the gifts of the spirit,

00:22:08.099 --> 00:22:14.740
but we don't work with the fruits. We love the

00:22:14.740 --> 00:22:20.180
gift of the Spirit But we don't abide in the

00:22:20.180 --> 00:22:29.720
fruit of the Spirit The Lord is calling a generation

00:22:29.720 --> 00:22:31.900
that is able to carry the fruit of the Spirit

00:22:31.900 --> 00:22:42.319
of God That's why abiding in Him participants
