God's everlasting covenant .

When in January 13 2001 a powerful earthquake destroy my parents house and everything that  they had worked for their  entire lives was gone in minutes . I realized that I need to do something , So I decided to immigrate to the US . I risked  my life crossing illegally  the mexican border and then the US border and walking in the desert for three days knowing that many people dont make it .  For the first time in my life I was away from my family and for the first time I was afraid . I remember praying silently  for God to bless me and that I would serve him all my life . Unfortunately , I forgot about God  but he never forgot about me . In the same way , the nation of Israel , Adam , Noah and every human being has failed to fulfill the requirement of the covenant but Jesus coming to die for us , Has taken our place . As Ellen White says " He was treated as we deserved so that we might be treated as he deserves "  In ancient near stern culture , the covenants were  made by the cutting of animals and pronouncing the stipulations , promises , blessings and curses  but even though  we failed our part , Jesus redeemed us by fulfilling our part !! Isaiah says  talking about Mesiah  Surely he took up our pain 
   and bore our suffering, 
yet we considered him punished by God, 
   stricken by him, and afflicted. 
⁵ But he was pierced for our transgressions, 
   he was crushed for our iniquities; 
the punishment that brought us peace was on him, 
   and by his wounds we are healed. 
⁶ We all, like sheep, have gone astray,  
   each of us has turned to our own way; 
and the LORD has laid on him 
   the iniquity of us all. 

All I can say is what a savior !

How to know God's will for your life .

Henry Blackaby in his book  " Men of integrity says "The first funeral I ever conducted was for a beautiful three-year-old. She was the first child born to a couple in our church, and the first grandchild in their extended family. Unfortunately, she was spoiled. While visiting the little girl's home one day, I observed that she loved to ignore her parents' instructions. When they told her to come, she went. When they said "sit down," she stood up. Her parents laughed, finding her behavior cute.

One day their front gate was inadvertently left open. The parents saw their child escaping out of the yard and heading toward the road. To their horror, a car was racing down the street. As she ran out between two parked cars, they both screamed at her to stop and turn back. She paused for a second, looked back at her parents, then gleefully laughed as she turned and ran directly into the path of the oncoming car.

The parents rushed their little girl to the hospital, but she died from her injuries. As a young pastor, this was a profound lesson for me. I realized I must teach God's people not only to recognize His voice but also immediately to obey His voice when they hear it. It is life." Many people ask , How can I know God's will for my life ? but when they find it in the word of God they refuse to obey . The apostle Paul in his letter to Hebrews says " if you hear his voice do not harden your heart " I pray that we recognize God's voice but not only that but also obey his voice .

A new life

the 4th of  April at 11:09 pm we receive our third child and our first boy Fredy Reinosa II was born .

why we are here .

realizing what is our reason for our existence , should be our priority in life . Many people  have lived and died and before dying have exclaim the words of the wise man " All is vanity " . Money , prosperity in life , friends , being "productive to society " influence , power etc  " King Salomon says "

Yet when I surveyed all that my hands had done and what I had toiled to achieve, everything was meaningless, a chasing after the wind; nothing was gained under the sun." King Salomon had everything  , he says " I denied myself nothing my eyes desired; I refused my heart no pleasure. My heart took delight in all my work, and this was the reward for all my labor. you would expect that the next sentence would be , and I was really happy and enjoy life  but he exclaims , everything was meaningless  . In contrast the apostle Paul had everything  , he was a respected person in society , he was a Pharisee , a Roman citizen etc . He had it all . but when he met Jesus , his life was transformed , and he became a humble servant of Jesus . Yes , he was persecuted , suffered afflictions , necessities  and the burden of ministry and being misunderstood by enemies and friends . But for him , to live is Christ , to die is gain . at the end of his life , he knows his life has not been in vain , he says " I have fought   the good fight , I have finished the race , I have  kept the faith "and then he continues " Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing. Do you love Jesus appearing ? if it is so , why are you doing to fulfill your calling in life , he has called us to serve him , and serving him we find real meaning to our lives . Let's surrender all to Jesus .

distracted at the crucial time !

For if their purpose or activity is of human origin, it will fail.  But if it is from God, you will not be able to stop these men; you will only find yourselves fighting against God.” ACTS 5:38,39 NIV.
Last year  Doug Batchelor preached a sermon against " Women as pastors " that sermon created a great controversy .After that sermon the" Adventist today " and spectrum  blogs were filled with commentaries  for or against  the views presented in that sermon . That sermon has been one of the most controversial in recent years . Does  our divided church needs this to be "relevant " . For me I learned a lesson that I hope I will never forget and that is , that our church is bigger than any individual  it doesn't matter how popular that person is , because it is God's church And God is in control . That has been shown in the way the church has been taken care  of the controversy at "La Sierra " we need to trust our system and work with it and allow the Holy spirit to lead . We are living in interesting times , I am amazed at certain group of individuals that believe that if we " modify the 28 fundamentals " that if we "fix the language " of that everything will be ok . We should remember that our Pioneers didn't think it was a good idea to have a " creed " . The Bible is our rule of faith and practice . When I was a bible worker , I never took with me any of those " bible studies guides " I just took my bible and from the bible , I allow Jesus to lead people to him . God has called each one of us to preach the gospel , unfortunately , we have lost our mission  and we get distracted in issues that will not get us ready to be translated  and at the crucial moment when Jesus comes , he is going to find us playing games while there is a world that doesn't know him . Have mercy on us Jesus ! The advice of  Gamaliel to the Pharisees is something we all need to think about . Ministry is not about authority   or who is in control . My Dad had only a fourth grade education , he was never a "pastor " by the church , he never received a salary from the church  but he help plant churches all over the western part of El salvador . Jesus says "Do not work for the food that spoils ,but for the food that endures to eternal life which the son of man will give you " John 6:27.   I pray that we will  proclaim the  everlasting gospel and  don't get distracted by all these controversies , at the same time , let's allow God to lead, let's not be afraid of the leading of the Holy spirit , remember that he will lead us into all truth . And Truth many times , goes against ideas that we treasure and is rooted in our heart . Only Jesus can help us , let's turn to him with humility .

Don't expect others to do anything for you .

Yes , don't expect others to do anything for you .

Estamos viviendo en los últimos días.

 Estamos viviendo en el tiempo del fin. Los signos de rápido cumplimiento de los tiempos de declarar que la venida de Cristo está cerca. Los días en que vivimos son solemnes e importantes. El Espíritu de Dios es poco a poco pero con seguridad se extrae de la tierra. Las placas y los juicios ya están cayendo sobre los despreciadores de la gracia de Dios. Las calamidades por tierra y mar, el estado inestable de la sociedad, las alarmas de la guerra, son portentosas. Se prevé abordar los acontecimientos de primera magnitud. "Las agencias del mal están combinando sus fuerzas y la consolidación. Ellos son el fortalecimiento de la última gran crisis. Grandes cambios están a punto de tener lugar en nuestro mundo, y los movimientos finales serán los rápidos. "- Elena G. de White, Testimonios, vol. 9, página 11. ¿Ya llegamos? El apóstol Pablo escribiendo a los Romanos dice: "1 Y ello, la comprensión de la actualidad: La hora ha llegado para que se despierte de su sueño, pues nuestra salvación está ahora más cerca que cuando creímos. 12 La noche está a punto de terminar, el día ya casi está aquí. Así que dejemos a un lado las obras de las tinieblas y se puso la armadura de la luz. 13 Vivamos decentemente, como en el día, no en orgías y borracheras, no en la inmoralidad sexual y libertinaje, ni en disensiones y envidias. 14 Más bien, vestíos con el Señor Jesucristo, y no creo que se preocupen por satisfacer los deseos de la carne. (Romanos 13) En Mateo 24, leemos acerca de las señales del regreso de Cristo "Mientras Jesús estaba sentado en el monte de los Olivos, los discípulos se acercaron a él en privado. "Dile a nosotros", dijeron, "cuando sucederá esto, y qué señal habrá de tu venida y del fin del siglo?"
 4 Jesús le respondió: "Mirad que nadie os engañe. 5 Porque vendrán muchos en mi nombre, diciendo: Yo soy el Mesías, y engañarán a muchos. 6 Y oiréis de guerras y rumores de guerras, pero procuren que no se alarme. Estas cosas deben suceder, pero el final está aún por llegar. 7 Se levantará nación contra nación y reino contra reino. Habrá hambres y terremotos en diferentes lugares. 8 Y todo esto será principio de dolores. El versículo 8 dice: "Y todo esto será principio de dolores. Contracciones se hacen más frecuentes cuando el bebé está a punto de nacer. Así que todos estos eventos (terremotos y todos los desastres que estos) son cada vez más y más frecuentes, Sabemos que el mundo está cambiando. ¿Qué pasa con la iglesia? Mateo 25 Describir la iglesia "dormir" y algunos sin el aceite del Espíritu Santo, en Apocalipsis 3: 15 Yo conozco tus obras, que ni eres frío ni caliente. ¡Ojalá fueses frío o una o la otra! 16 Así, porque eres tibio, ni caliente ni frío voy a vomitarte de mi boca. 17 Porque tú dices: Yo soy rico, me he enriquecido, y no falta nada. "Pero no te das cuenta que tú eres un desventurado, miserable, pobre, ciego y desnudo. 18 yo te aconsejo que de mí compres oro refinado en fuego, por lo que puede llegar a ser rico, y vestiduras blancas para vestirte, para que pueda cubrir su vergonzosa desnudez, y colirio para ungir tus ojos, para que pueda ver "La buena noticia es que Jesús no nos deja allí, él sigue "a quien amo Yo reprendo y castigo. Por lo tanto, sé fervoroso y arrepiéntete. 20 ¡Aquí estoy! Yo estoy a la puerta y llamo. Si alguno oye mi voz y abre la puerta, entraré, y cenaré con esa persona, y ellos conmigo.
   21 Para el que es victorioso, le daré el derecho de sentarse conmigo en mi trono, así como que salió victorioso y se sentó con mi Padre en su trono. 22 El que tenga oídos, que escuchen lo que el Espíritu dice a las iglesias. " Jesús está llamando a la puerta de nuestro corazón, ¿le vas a dejar  entrar  permitirle  cambiar su vida? Pido a Dios que digamos que si .
