E. Valverde Ministries

Through the inspiration of the Holy Spirit and for over half a century in the ministry, Pastor Efraim Valverde, Sr. has been the author of a great number of biblically related books and articles. In them he has dissertated concerning subjects and truths of supreme importance; and I say “supreme,” because the spiritual life of the children of God depend on the knowledge of these truths.  

  With a special calling that is highly uncommon, this minister of the Lord Jesus Christ has presented to God’s people--in singular form--as much in the spoken message as through his writings, the truths and mysteries that have been revealed unto him by the Lord in His Sacred Word, the Holy Bible. At the present and at worldwide level, the messages that are a product of this ministry have caused a positive impact in the lives of many from among “the people of the saints of the Most High”     (Daniel 7:27). 

In contrast, the ministry and the messages of this man of God have also provoked great controversy in the minds of many, specifically, since he has been called of God to “afflict the comfortable and comfort the afflicted.” In this ministry, the following biblical declaration has been fulfilled: “The words of the wise are as goads, and as nails fastened by the masters of assemblies, which are given from one shepherd”         (Ecclesiastes 12:11). 

The main purpose of this ministry has been to confirm the faithful believers, but also to shake and awaken as many as it is possible from among a slumbering and blind religious world; a world where a weak and complacent Christianity lives “neglecting so great a salvation” (Hebrews 2:3). 

The description of the author’s ministry provided here is said with complete certainty since it pertains to my own father. Inclusively, for the last 25 years of my life, it has pleased the Lord that as a son I would also have a direct participation in this special ministry that God has committed unto my father.

CONVOCATION

 "THE VIOLENT"                                                                           Those who have received what I have written, since the Lord restored my life at the end of last year (1998) after undergoing three life-threatening medical procedures, know that I have been insisting that we need more fire of God's Holy Spirit. Many know that I have been speaking and writing about "Spiritual Violence" and how imperative it is for us to lift ourselves from the mediocrity, passivity and conformity which prevails among us and which produces bland, boring routines.
