Dupade’s believers have his strength:
You know that I do not understand Spanish. Some of us are royal. But Dupade is more royal and very strong. But Dupade’s believers, men, and women, you are in Dupade. Be firm and unmovable. Dupade’s believers have his strength for all things. They are strong because they want only Dupade and desire nothing else.
Dupade’s true believers don’t want anything else, all they desire is Dupade:
You know that we all have desires. Dupade’s Word is very strong. And you know that, despite that, there are many of us who don’t see Dupade as strong. Dupade is strong, but his believers are like us and have intense desire for young women. We should intensely desire Dupade like that, not wanting other things, but wanting Dupade more than anything else.
I’m like that. When I want a young woman, I can’t take my eyes off her. That’s how a believer should be about Dupade. They shouldn’t want anything else except Dupade. We should be constant in our desire for Dupade. For he is so strong.
There’s nothing stronger than Dupade:
But I’m thankful that don Pablo, don Len, and Ipeyai came to us. They are strong, and that is what brought them to us. You know that there is nothing stronger than Dupade. (Matthew 22:37)
The first cojñone didn’t believe in Dupade:
But some of the first cojñone that we had contact with were unbelievers. And that is why we doubted the things that Meráminé, and Juan told us. And we said: “Meráminé and them are liars.”
Those cojñone that were among us used to say: “We don’t believe in Dupade. Peter and the others who teach you are liars when they tell about the flood. If we should have rain like they claim it rained back then, we’ll just climb up in the trees. Or we’ll climb a mountain. You see how tall the mountains are? That’s our plan if the water should reach up to our waists.”
I’m thankful that Len and the others have come to us:
And some of us Ayoreos are like those first cojñone. But I’m very thankful that Len and his companions came to us, and taught us from Dupade’s Word, and they made it easy for us to understand. Hopefully they’ll return with more teaching. They are very strong and so are we. We don’t doubt the words of our teachers. I’m so grateful that there are so many people who are now teaching us the word of Dupade here in Rincón.
Stand firmly on your faith in Dupade:
Dupade is very strong. He is firm with us because there are so many things we lust after. You see, what I want is to desire Dupade more than anything else. Thought I want to have faith in Dupade, sometimes I put my work first. And when I do that, His Word doesn’t enter my mind at all.
The Lord is coming again, and when he does return, he’ll take us in his hands. Our hands are so small in comparison to his. My hand is so small that were I to try to fit even a small child into it he would be too big for it. When Dupade comes, he will easily fit you into his hands along with all the cojñone. Along with us, he’ll gather the animals also. And you know there’s many animals, cojñone and us. And yet with all of us, there will be room to spare. We won’t be crowded at all in his hand.
When he arrives, it will be with fire that will ignite and burn. And it will be aflame all around us. Dupade’s Words are very strong.
