I am not the owner of anything. I am only the administrator. The word that is normally used in theology is the majority. We are the majority of what God has given us, has lent us. And we have to use everything we have for the glory of God and for his service and the service of the people of God. So I want to give a practical teaching, brother, about hospitality, because several families, almost all, They will be receiving people in their homes. The concept many times is, well brother, I have nothing to give. That is to say, if I received a person in my home, I would be ashamed. I'm not used to it. I don't have the habit of receiving other people in my home. So, brothers, of course, I want to exhort you with the word of God that we think of using our home as a form of ministry to others. And I also want to teach you, brothers, that a luxurious house is not required. No se requiere alimentos lujosos. No es el Holiday Inn, verdad? Ninguno de nosotros tiene un Holiday Inn. Un camino real, se puede decir, verdad? Ya nosotros tenemos casas humildes, somos familias humildes y necesitamos aprender cómo usar lo que el Señor nos ha provisto para honrar a Dios y servir a nuestros hermanos y otros en el nombre de Cristo Jesús. Les invito, por favor, la Biblia si habla de eso, abren sus Biblias, por favor, Hebreos capítulo 13. Hebreos capítulo 13. Versículo número uno. Hebreos capítulo 13. Versículo número uno. Dice la palabra de Dios, Hebreos 13, 1. Permanezca el amor fraternal, el amor entre hermanos, el amor servicial, el amor paciente, el amor, hermanos, dispuesto a atender, servir. Permanezca el amor fraternal. No os olvideis. de la hospitalidad porque por ella algunos sin saberlo hospedaron ángeles. Y claro aquí se refiere a dar hospedaje a los ángeles al momento cuando Abraham recibió en su casa, ¿se acuerda? Este, antes que Sodoma y Gomorra fueron were destroyed. Abram, standing at the door of his tent, saw three men approaching him. He invited them to enter his house. He sent his wife to make something tasty, to kill the meat, And thank God, brother, without knowing it, Jesus Christ, Jehovah Himself, and two other angels came there to give testimony that there, one year, Isaac would be born, if you remember, Isaac would be born, and at the same time, God was going to destroy the city of Sodom and Gomorrah. So brothers, we never know who we are attending to. Today, it could be the son of a brother, but maybe one day it could be an evangelist, a pastor, a preacher, a great man. That is to say, brother, we must dispose of what is ours, open our hearts first, then open our homes. He says, do not forget the hospitality, because for it some, without knowing it, hosted angels, messengers. And thank God, brother, for this biblical mandate. So here the Bible commands us to practice hospitality. One or two more texts, brother, and then we'll see a few points here. Romans, chapter 12. Romans, chapter 12. Romans chapter 12, verse number 13, brothers. In the same context that fraternal love, love without pretending, love one another with fraternal love, verse 13 says, sharing, it says, for the needs of the saints, practicing hospitality. Compartiendo para la necesidad de los santos, practicando la hospitalidad. Y un texto más, hermanos, en 1 Timoteo capítulo 5. We find the rules, the rules set by the Holy Spirit regarding the widows who should be attended to by the churches. And we see here, brother, a widow had to be at least 60 years old, says verse 9. It is put on the list only the widow not less than 60 years old who has been the wife of a single husband, that is, who has not been divorced. that he has been faithful in his marriage. He says that he has testimony of good works, that he has raised children, that he has practiced hospitality, that he has washed the feet of the saints, that he has helped the afflicted, that he has practiced all good Obra. Entonces Dios aquí habla de lo que es la mujer parter, un aspecto de la mujer virtuosa, una mujer que debía ser, debía haber sido tomado en cuenta en la lista para ser atendida por las iglesias primitivas, una viuda que practicaba, dice, la hospitalidad, que ha lavado los pies, los pies de los santos. Entonces, hermano, pues una mujer ya desde su juventud debe anhelar poder servir a Dios, no en el ministerio del púlpito, no como evangelista o como oradora en público, pero la mujer debe buscar que ella pueda servir, pueda atender, suplir las necesidades de los santos, de los hermanos en Cristo, ya por medio de su hogar. And that is a ministry that is really needed here in Oaxaca. There is no custom, there are no elders who teach young people how to develop their lives, their homes, in order to serve. to the brothers and sisters, to the servants of God, those who, in the prudence of God, pass through the city to our community. So, brothers, what is hospitality? Biblically, brothers, it is an aspect of love. Opening our home, Well, of course, many times you are afraid of your home, right? You look for your privacy, a place, a refuge. And of course, I understand, brother. This is human nature, right? If we study nature, well, Mrs. Bird doesn't invite the other little birds to come to her nest to rest. La naturaleza no entiende lo que estamos manifestando. Pero el amor de Cristo nos enseña la importancia, hermano, de amarnos unos a otros. Y es parte del amor fraternal. Es la disposición de disponer lo nuestro. Es decir, este deshacerno de lo nuestro para hacerle bien a los hermanos en Cristo Jesús. So, brothers, it's part of fraternal love. Hospitality is also a service. One is serving, of course, serving the host, but above all, serving the Lord, because it is the Lord who commands us not to forget hospitality. Visitors came to Abraham's house, or rather, Abraham's store. And Sarah, at the same time, obeyed her husband, preparing the food. She also served those who had come there to rest. But above all, the Bible already testifies, she was glorifying, honoring, serving. to God. So this is a higher concept, right? We do this not to please the man, not to please only the husband, the servant, but we are serving the Lord. Hospitality, brothers, is a great opportunity to cheer us up. to encourage us. Because, thank God, many times there is not enough time to talk, to live together. So, the hospitality, in the hospital, the house is opened, the guest is received, the guests, and they feel, they feel for what? To talk, to be encouraged, to be strengthened. Brother, it is a great blessing. una bendición muy grande. Enséñales, por ejemplo, y enséñales a sus hijos a escuchar. Reciban a los visitantes en la providencia de Dios. Reconocen que Dios en su sabiduría, en su gobierno, ya Dios es el que ha permitido que haya esta oportunidad y buscar animarse unos a otros, fortalecerse unos a otros. Yes, we have been recipients of hospitality on many occasions. We can give testimony, right, that we have been strengthened. It is time to talk about the things of the Lord, to exchange experiences, proofs, answers to prayer, testimony of salvation, and one already lives and is strengthened in the Lord. And also, brother, hospitality is a way of blessing God and blessing our brother. Yes. Well, we don't always have the opportunity to bless others. That is to say, we don't have the opportunity. But in hospitality, brother, there is a lot of time, right? One can already have his own time, look for a way to supply the needs, as we already read, right? Supplying, what does the text we read there, Romans 12, verse 13, say? The Word of God says, brothers, sharing for the needs of the saints. And obviously, one needs hospitality because he does have a need. And thanks to God, brothers, in that we can bless him, we can do good to him, we can love our neighbor, our brother. Not in words, but in fact, And in truth, as the Apostle John says. So, brother, as far as the aspects of hospitality, it is not mentioned here. There is no mention of the size of the house, or the size of the house, or the quality of the food, or the environment. Brother, I think El corazón dispuesto, el corazón amoroso, el corazón ya derramando el amor de Dios hacia otro es lo más importante. Y debemos no olvidarnos, hermano, de la hospitalidad. Ahora, unas sugerencias. a la mejor seria mas apropiado que mi esposa nos enseñara, pero ya que no le va a tocar a ella, me toca a mi. Entonces, unas sugerencias en cuanto a recibir a otros, hermano. Y yo creo que el numero uno, mas importante, que haya una bienvenida calorosa. It means, brother, that we don't do it with a resistance. But look, my house is yours. Everything that God has given me is yours. And here I want you to come in, to live, to be at ease. And to say, my house is your house, may it not be a saying by habit, by culture, but may it really be born in our hearts, brother. God has blessed me for having blessed me, and I also want to share with you. I don't share so that God may bless me, I share because God has blessed me. Entonces, una bienvenida calorosa. Una disposición, ¿verdad? Y se siente, desde luego. Ya, si uno quiere que esté, ya se siente, ya la atención, ya el calor, ya la disposición. Enseñeles a sus hijos, cuando uno viene a su casa, que salgan a saludar. In my house, it's like an army. You line up and you have to say hello. But after saying hello for nine days, it's like you feel welcome in the house. And not only in the private house, but also in the house of God, right brother? We must receive those who come from outside with warmth, with a disposition. And I know that there are more violent people, there are more reserved people, and all that, but in itself, brother, we need to show ourselves friendly, to show ourselves willing, to manifest that I am here to serve you. I am pleased that you have come. I want to serve you, not so that you think well of me, not so that you reward me with something, but I do this in the name of Christ. That is to say, I am serving Christ. A warm welcome. Padres, por favor, enseñen a sus hijos. Es muy importante, ¿verdad? Ahí es donde se siente, la verdad, la disposición. Me da gusto entrar a la casa, saludo a los padres. Ellos por costumbre, por obligación, me van a saludar. Pero cuando se me acercan los niños, uno tras uno, y quieren agarrar mi mano, dice, este ya quiere que haya gente aquí en su casa que conviva, que esté con ellos. Gracias a Dios, hermano. Es importante la bienvenida. Numero dos, hermanos, en cuanto a la hospitalidad. Repito, no he hablado nada de tamaño de la casa, las comodidades y todo. Un corazón inclinado hacia Dios, buscando servir, glorificar a Dios, servir al hermano es lo máximo, hermano, en cuanto a la hospitalidad. Numero dos, hermano, es de compartir la mesa. Compartir la mesa, por favor, no haga lo que me hicieron una vez aquí en la sierra, aquí en el Istmo. Llegué ahí al pueblo, tuvimos que entrar caminando, llegando. Me atendieron, me recibieron ahí en la casa, pero a la hora de comer, me pusieron plato y se fueron, se ausentaron. Me dejaron ahí solo. Yo sintiendo, ¿por qué me invitan y luego me abandonan? No me he bañado, apesto aquí. Ya con el día siguiente salimos a ir casa a casa predicando la palabra de Dios y le dije, hermano, ¿por qué ya no me acompañaron? Yo me sentía muy solo, ¿verdad? Ya en la mesa. Ah, it's because once I had lived with another foreign family in Tabasco, and the gringo said he didn't eat with other people. So I told him, look, if I'm going to come, I'm going to live with you, because if I don't live with you, I'm not coming. I'm coming so we can have communion and prayer. I mean, I want you to share the table with me. The truth is that it was difficult for him. We never got along very well in that aspect. But, brother, sharing the table is obvious, right? The same need that I have has another, etc., etc. It is not a difficult thing to understand. Sharing the table... When I say table, brother, it is not necessary that there is a table. Yes. It's not about comfort. It's about sharing, living, blessing, attending and serving. So, as far as food, and nothing else, brother, for those who wanted to be very attentive, you can ask if you have personal needs, special needs. Today there are many diabetics. The diabetic cannot drink soda. The diabetic can no longer eat sweets. We who are used to drinking soda or something else, we can no longer think. But if we are going to attend to others, we need to be attentive according to their needs. And of course, it's something that develops. It's not something that happens overnight. But let's be aware. Maybe he has fake teeth. I don't know. And he can't eat meat. So if you take out a milanesa, right, for the person, he's going to say thank you, but oh well, I can't receive it, I can't chew it. And it's an exaggerated case, right? But it's taken into account. Today there are people who don't eat pork. It hurts them. Other needs. Well, no. Prohibitions by a doctor to keep a diet, a certain diet, a special diet. But mostly, brother, you know who has grown a lot in that aspect is brother Guadalupe through the years. Brother Guadalupe used to eat everything when he was young, but finally he gave up. And now he can't eat pork, pork, beef. He only eats chicken and fish. And you know what I've seen? Since he was touched, now he's aware of the needs of others around him. Before, he didn't even take it into account. But with the same experience, with the same need, he learned. Look, if I have special needs, surely the others do. I don't know, like me once, a year ago, the drop had already been detected. One night, when I was leaving the cult here, I was going to invite them to dinner, and we passed here, heading to the Petit Côté transit, there is a place there, Hamburguesas al Carbón, and forgetting about their need, I invited them. I avoided it. Well, I couldn't eat his dinner, right? Another one had to eat it. But, really, let's be conscious. Well, of course, the younger you are, there is less concern, but if we are going to receive the older people, the sick, we need to be aware of their needs. It's part of love, right? Right, brothers? Part of love. Now I've shared the table. Another suggestion, brother. Even if it's beans, brothers, what's the problem with beans? I can only give you beans. Thank God. Beans are a great blessing. In the same place, they gave me to eat eggs, beans, tortillas made by hand. And all the time asking for forgiveness. I know you don't eat eggs, you don't eat beans, you don't eat tortillas, but it's just what I eat every day of my life. It's not a shame to serve someone. Según lo que uno tenga. Si tiene más, dale más. Si tiene frijol, gracias a Dios, dale frijol. ¿Por qué tantas preocupa? ¿Por qué? No es una vergüenza servir frijoles. Amén, hermanas. Yes, but I want to serve Him more. Well, if you don't have more to give Him, give Him what you have. Yes? Yes, but I feel sorry. More sorry not to serve the Lord with your heart, with all your heart and with all your house. Open your heart to Him. Open your house to Him. Yes, serve Him. Yes? Let them be the best beans you have ever tasted in your life. Yes? The Oaxacans. It's true. It's true. The woman wants to give you a night of stuffing. She wants to give you a Mexican steak. ni hay en la casa. Si hubiera con gusto, dale, es decir, ya, sírvele con todo lo que tiene, pero no se avergüence de darle lo más sencillo. ¿Verdad? Aún yo, siempre he dicho, yo me contento con una tortilla de sal, sin tortilla. Vaya. ¿Cuántos han querido servir, dar más? Pero ya es porque nunca da nada porque se avergüenza de dar lo que Dios le ha dado. Sirvamos al Señor con lo que Él nos ha dado. Sea poco, sea mucho. The next number, brothers, is about sleeping. Well, of course, if you come to be hosted, if we are going to host you, we have to give you a place to sleep. It doesn't have to be the most modern mattress, more electric. The floor still works quite well. La cama de piedra. Hermanos, hermanos, no estoy diciendo que le demos lo más sencillo, lo menos posible. Estoy diciendo que no nos avergonzamos, no nos avergonzamos de lo que el Señor nos ha dado. No sé en cuántos hogares me he quedado. Y por no tener un lugar, según ellos, más adecuado, They gave me their own bed. The couple gave us their own bed. We've been touched like this on many occasions. And I'm grateful. But you know, if you ask me, brother, here is the living room. There in the United States, the living rooms already have carpets, right? Yes, one can. Even if there weren't any, but here in the room. And many have not wanted to receive us because they are ashamed to offer the floor. Brother, the one who is hospitalized will need to rest. Durante años, les comento, los hermanos en la sierra siempre ya me han recibido con tanta atención, con tanto amor. Yo siempre me quedaba ahí en el tablón sote, que allá está, esa fue mi cama durante años. Ahí dormía. Cuando otro llegaba conmigo, le daba mi cama, mi tablón, y yo me quedaba en el piso. Once my wife arrived, my wife accompanied me, brother Guadalupe and his wife, they gave us their bed. They already slept, I don't know where, but... They slept somewhere else, but they gave us their bed. Now, it's been 8 months, a year, I don't know why, but they decided to buy a normal bed, with a normal mattress, And every time I arrive, another one is staying there. They take out the bed, put the mattress, and now I sleep in the Holiday Inn of the Sierra. But brother, look. Yo, yo, yo, estoy a gusto ahí en la cama que me proveen ahora como en el piso el tablón. Lo importante es la disposición de su corazón, hermano. Y esto nunca se ha puesto en duda, siempre han tenido. Si vamos a darle un lugar de alojamiento para dormir, tenemos que proveer las cobijas, mayormente los que vienen de afuera, ¿verdad? Nosotros estamos más o menos acostumbrados a la frescura. Those who come from the coast, from the isthmus, from other parts, maybe they don't have the same sensitivity, the same endurance in terms of freshness. We need to provide blankets. Of course, you can ask for a loan. Neighbor, brother, sister. Someone is coming and I want to attend to him, but I need a blanket. Of course, that's why we are here. Why don't you feel ashamed? If we had everything, we would all have hotels. No, we are here to serve. And if you can use a pillow, yes, you can use a pillow in a backpack. But of course, one seeks to serve, to rest well, to eat well, to be well. Now, brother, regarding the physical or personal needs, the bathroom, etc., obviously we need to provide soap, a towel. It's the simplest thing, right? Soap, towel, and if possible, a mirror, so that you can comb your hair and get it fixed, right? Whatever the case. So yesterday my wife informed me that Bertito went out to a place where they sell glass and mirrors and we bought a mirror for the institute, the little cabin that we have as an institute. I saw it well. My wife is wisely conditioning the room to serve others. It was a necessary expense, not to fulfill a necessity of mine, but to be able to serve others. What a shame that I wasn't there a few days ago. The mirror. Well, if they come without, if they want to support with a brush or with toothpaste to brush, well, it is what is born in the heart and according to the need of the person who comes to be hosted. So, brother, thank God, it is a blessing. In many homes where I have been, the lady of the house has asked for my clothes, my shirt mostly, to iron it. Sometimes I have asked for nothing more than the iron to be able to iron my own shirt, but it is to seek to attend, it is to seek to fulfill the need. Now, another thing regarding the hospitality, brother, the hospitality, an orientation. Usted que vive ahí siempre y usted sabe cómo moverse, a dónde ir, los peligros, etc., etc., pues tenemos que darle una orientación. Pues aquí pasa el camión, aquí a tres cuadras tiene que caminar. Una orientación para que uno se ubique, se pueda mover, que no sea dependiente constantemente. Pues es obvio, pero a veces somos un poco It's simple, right? We don't think about the necessity. There are some here who have never traveled. Remember the exhortation that God gave to the Israelites through the... How were you foreigners in a foreign land? Now that you treat those who come from a foreign land well. Yes, the foreigners. Orientation. Something not necessary, but a blessing. I learned from Brother Moises in Mexico. He accompanied me. I had to do several tours. I had several commitments in Mexico City. I know how to move in Mexico. But you know, it was a blessing when he insisted, brother, with all my heart, I want to accompany you. I've already started time and I want to walk with you and help you. It was fabulous. I accepted his support, his buying, his willingness to accompany. Whether it's the market or a commitment, it's not mandatory, I repeat, but if one had that willingness, then thank God. In terms of devotional life, brothers and sisters, we, who give place to other people, it would be appropriate, and mostly to the servants of God, to invite them to share a portion of the word of God, a devotional, in their own home. There you have a servant of God, a brother, a worker of God. There he is in his house and you don't open the door for him to give the word to you, to his wife, to his children. I think it's a little naive, right? We should look for our family to be taught that we can receive the Word. And if you're there and you have time, invite your brother. This morning or tomorrow morning, I want you to give us a portion of the Word of God. And thank God, in this way, hospitality is becoming an even greater blessing. And then, brothers, it doesn't matter if you are a servant of God or a servant of God, it would be good to develop the habit before you say goodbye, before you leave the house, before you leave the house, to have the habit, the disposition. Brother, before you go, I want to pray for you and I want to thank God for the privilege to have them here in the house. And one already offers God, not a prayer of one hour, half an hour, but a simple prayer, thanking God for the privilege of having one in the house, and then already asking God's blessing on him, about their own, about what they are going to do. So, brother, it is already a blessing. Brother, this is part of the service, to serve. To serve with our hands, to serve with our prayers, to serve in whatever we can. And this is the greatest attitude of hospitality. Brothers, I share this because I want there to be greater blessing in your homes. Instead of getting poorer, you are going to get richer. The brother says it's a blessing. Let's try it once. Once you've tried it, you'll want to open your house more often. That's a blessing. So brothers, I want this church to have the testimony that we are a hospitable church. A generous church. A church willing to serve. That is to say, if one passes through here, through Oaxaca, we don't want one to go and look for a hotel in the center. No. Brother, here I am. You can welcome me with pleasure, brother. Come. Yes. And that is the disposition that is often needed. It's a ministry, brother. We are not saying that this is part of administering to the brotherhood, to the brothers in Christ. And I hope that you learn, that God teaches you to open your house and overcome your fears. Yes? Overcome your fears. Yes? Un porche con nada más, un piso, una hamaca, me ha servido muchas veces. Es decir, hermano, los que vienen están después. Ellos dan gracias a Dios nada más por la disposición de recibir, de ser atendidos. No es el lugar, ¿verdad? Oh, pero hermano, ya, ya. De noche ya sale mucha cucaracha. Bienvenido al mundo. La casa suya, la mía también. ¿Por qué tanto miedo? ¿Por qué no seamos transparentes, honestos, compasivos, dispuestos a servir? Ese es el amor fraternal. De hecho, yo he sido miembro de varias iglesias, que es una competencia. practically. That's how it should be, brothers. It's a blessing, and we need to be instructed by God so that we can also see the blessing. Oh brother, but I'll have to buy another quarter of an omelette, and I'm going to spend more. Well, what has been received is more than enough. lo que se puede gastar la verdad. Si usted tiene una capacidad, sabe cortar cabello, este, es este sastre, este, tiene otro oficio, y que pueda ya, este, ofrecerle un servicio, pues adelante, si. Este, este, no, no sé, este, pues, para verlo, ya, ya, ese oficio se aprovecha día y noche, ¿verdad? at breakfast and also at dinner. But this is another profession, this service. I remember, do you remember Brother Miguel, who taught about the family, the marriage? This man is very helpful. I mean, it's my turn, I get to his house, in the early morning, before I get up, the brother has already left and washed my car. It's surprising to see so much willingness. But of course, the truth is that I have always received blessings from him, his willingness to be so hospitable. Brothers, I have lived, I have learned a lot from Mexicans. I have received, not only the Mexicans, the American Christians have shown me and taught me many things. A lot of the hospitality that I am teaching you is because I was taught, for example, by others. Not because I am very hospitable, but I have learned from others. Entonces, gracias a Dios por tantas atenciones, bendiciones. Yo he sido bendecido gracias a Dios. Dios me ha usado para bendecir. Y hermano, yo creo que todos nosotros aprendamos cómo abrir nuestro hogar, nuestra casa. Aunque sea un cuarto, sí. Pero ya servirle, recibir y servir, bendecir, amar. este, a apoyar a nuestros hermanos en Cristo. Dice la palabra, debemos no olvidarnos hermanos de ese ministerio porque nunca sabemos, nunca sabemos a quien de verdad estamos recibiendo. Hasta dice ángeles, es lo que dice la palabra de Dios. No os olvidéis de la hospitalidad porque por ahí algunos, sin saberlo, hospedaron ángeles, ángeles. Well, before I entered the ministry full time, I was working. And before I got married, God allowed me to buy a very simple house there. I say very simple. It was not made of wood like all houses. It had been built during the Second World War. And it was made of pure stone, pure concrete. Today I had to fight a lot with this house to condition it. God was preparing me for Mexico. But brothers, the place that would be known as the main room, we conditioned it, we didn't occupy it. We took another place. In fact, not on the first floor, but in the basement. With the hope of giving the best to those who came to visit us at that time. There were many who visited us from various places, many missionaries. And we received them with great pleasure. The Lord had taught me this. I am not a neophyte in this, brother. I am not the best, but I know that many of the houses today are small. I know that some of you, with time, will build. van a hacer su casa, o van a comprar su casa. Pero yo siempre pienso que es bueno, hermano, ya si se puede ya apartar un lugar, hacer un lugar para que sea particularmente para servir a los hermanos en el Ministerio de la Hospitalidad. No es una obligación, no hay mandamiento que se haga un lugar así, pero si uno quisiera ser siervo y bendecir a otros, pues gracias a Dios, hermano. Usted sería recipiente de muchas más bendiciones que usted pudiera dar a otros, la verdad. Entonces, este... May the Lord use this message to prepare us to receive others. May we be servile. May we show fraternal love. May we be willing. I tell you, brothers, that on Saturday there will be food here, on Sunday too, but there will be a need to host the brothers, to provide them with food, if God allows, on Friday afternoon. From when you arrive until Friday, Saturday morning, a simple breakfast. If you want a Saturday dinner, my wife is already planning to make banana bread and a coffee, a tea, because after eating from the battalion's provision, there won't be much hunger. Este, el domingo temprano y ya, hermanos, este, el domingo ya en la noche hasta que se vayan los hermanos. Este, bien. How many of you want to open your homes now? I want to open mine. In fact, we are opening ours. May it be born from the heart, brother. May it not be out of obligation. If you don't have the habit, if you have never done it, then offer it. Offer your home. Haga que su hogar sea para servir a los demás, a tener a otros en su casa. Aunque sea para una comida, aunque sea para una cena, aunque no sea para dormir, hermanos, no debemos descuidar el amor fraternal. Permanezca el amor fraternal. Bien. What a blessing to be taught and instructed in the things of the Lord. Do you remember when Paul was going to go to Spain and he asked the church to prepare accommodation for him? In ancient times, brother, there were no hotels. Es decir, ya los hermanos cuidaban y servían a los hermanos. Y así debe ser. Bien. Hermanos, vamos a orar. Terminando de orar, vamos a repasar dos veces en voz alta el texto. No vamos a darle a cada uno su oportunidad de manifestarlo públicamente, pero vamos a repetir dos veces el texto de la pregunta número 51. Pregunta y respuesta del primer versículo. Y después de esto estaremos Señor de los cielos, gracias te damos por la instrucción que viene de tu palabra. Padre, gracias por enseñarnos, Señor, no solamente conocer el amor en Cristo, el amor tuyo, Señor, pero cómo vivirlo, cómo practicarlo, cómo servirnos, Señor, bendecirnos, amarnos unos a otros. Gracias por mis hermanos que están dispuestos a aprender. Padre, que seamos diligentes. este señor en el amor fraternal que no descuidemos señor nuestro deber este para con nuestro hermano porque queremos honrar y glorificarte a ti señor en todas las cosas gracias señor por los que no han abierto su casa todavía pero con el tiempo un día señor que obras señor que mueve los corazones padre que aprenden señor a a compartir a to give what you have given to others in the form of service to the Ministry of Hospitality. Thank you, Lord, we give you for those who come. Well, the test is about to present itself. Father, may we receive them well. Provide, Lord, for their needs. Condition, Lord, as necessary. Father, and above all, Lord, may we do it from the heart. Sanctify us, Lord, this supper in every heart. Father, may we reach our homes well. Grant us a restorative rest. Prepare us, Lord, for the week in which we are entering. Father, may your name be glorified. Thank you for bringing us again, Lord, on Tuesday. Amen. Amen.
