Rapturing faith requires a new glorified body
Rapturing faith has been preached for about 50 years. But it achieved nothing as no rapture has happened.
63-0318 THE FIRST SEAL
“But think, now he wrote this [the single Thunder], but when he started to write those other seven thunders, he said, ‘Don't write it.’ He'd been commissioned to write everything he seen. But when these seven thunders over in Revelations 10 uttered, he said, ‘Don't write them at all.’ They're mysteries.
We don't know what they are yet;
but my opinion they'll be revealed right away.
And when it do, it'll give faith for that rapturing grace for that Church to move out.”
The Thunders utter at the time of the rapture. Only when you're in a new body can you be raptured, so that is when you will receive rapturing faith.
Before that day, rapturing faith cannot rapture you.
63-0318 THE FIRST SEAL
“We just move through everything that we know of; through all the dispensations we've watched everything. We've seen the mysteries of God. We've seen the appearing of the great gathering together of the Bride in the last days,
but yet there's something in there that we just can't lighten ourself with.
There's something another. But I imagine when them mysteries begins to come forth... God said,
Hold it back now. Wait a minute. I'll reveal it in that day.
Don't write it at all, John, 'cause they'll stagger over it.
Just let it go. (See?) But I'll reveal it in that day when it has need to done."
We do not know what the seven Thunders are.
Something about them is still unknown to us.
The “day when it has need to be done” is when they will be revealed, sometime between the resurrection and the rapture.
The Thunders will reveal how to change our bodies after the resurrection, but they will be staggeringly different from anything that we expect. We have to keep our options open. Great supernatural power will be manifest at that time when our bodies change.
Whatever you think the Thunders are, they will be staggeringly different. If you have an opinion of what the Thunders are, your opinion of them will stop you from recognizing them when they do happen. If you think they have uttered then you will oppose them when they will utter, sometime in the future.
63-0318 THE FIRST SEAL
“And then there's coming forth seven mysterious thunders that's not even written at all. That's right.
And I believe that through those seven thunders will be revealed in the last days in order to get the Bride together for rapturing faith;
because what we got right now, we wouldn't be able to do it. There's something we've got to step farther; we can't have enough faith for Divine healing hardly.
We've got to have enough faith to be changed in a moment and be swept up out of this earth,
and we'll find that after a while, the Lord willing, find where it's written.”
Seven Thunders will get the Bride together for the rapturing faith that we will need to be changed in a moment and caught up against the gravity force. Thus, the uttering of the Thunders is linked to the changing of our bodies.
Only when you're in a new body, then you will know that you have understood the seven Thunders.
Only when you're in a new body can you be raptured. That is when you will get rapturing faith.
63-0318 THE FIRST SEAL
“Seven thunders of revelation... May He show the Bride how to prepare for the great translation faith.”
The 7 Thunders will prepare the Bride to be caught up to Heaven. That is when the Bride’s bodies will be changed.
The Thunders will reveal the new name of Jesus
Once Jesus reveals His new name, then you must not use the old name of Jesus anymore. But sin is only forgiven in the name of Jesus. So, the new name will only help you when you are in a new, sinless, glorified body.
In the Old Testament, God's name was Jehovah. When God became a Man, He took on a new human name: Jesus.
Nowhere in the New Testament did God use His old name of Jehovah again.
63-0318 THE FIRST SEAL
“And Jesus, His Name on earth was Redeemer, Jesus. When He was on earth, He was the Redeemer; that's true. But when He conquered death and hell, and overcome them, and ascended on high, He received a new Name. That's the reason they holler the way they do and don't get nothing; it'll be revealed in the thunders.”
Only when the Bride has got a changed and glorified body will they get to know the new name of Jesus that describes Him in his glorified resurrection Body.
While we are still in our sinful bodies, we still depend on the name of Jesus, Who is our Saviour.
REVELATION 19:12 “His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns;
and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.”
Nobody who is still in these present sinful bodies can know the new name of Jesus.
63-0320 THE THIRD SEAL
“And when He takes this oath, seven thunders utter their voices, and the writer... Which when John was taken up, was supposed to write what he saw. He started to write down. He said, ‘Don't write it, because... Don't write that. It is an un..’ He said, ‘Seal it up.’ What in?
‘Seal up; don't say it.’ See? It's to be revealed, but it's not even written in the Word.”
The seven Thunders are sealed up so that we cannot say what they utter. They will only be revealed at some future time. They're sealed up by the fact that they're not written in the Bible.
Nobody can interpret something that is not written.
63-0324 THE SEVENTH SEAL
“He's revealed all the six Seals, but it don't say nothing about the Seventh.
And the end-time Seal, when it starts, will be absolutely a total secret according to the Bible.”
We know absolutely nothing about the Seventh Seal. It is SILENCE. We cannot speak where God is silent.
You cannot interpret silence by saying something.
No Bride revival yet but the Thunders wake her
63-0320 THE THIRD SEAL
“Now, that's what's the reason today that the revivals that we're supposed to have... We have denominational revivals; we haven't had a real stirring. No, no, no, no. No, sir. Don't think we got revivals. We haven't. Oh, they've got millions and millions and millions of church members, but not a revival nowhere. No, no.
The Bride hasn't had a revival yet.
See? There's been no revival there, no manifestation of God to stir the Bride yet. See? We're looking for it.
It will take those seven unknown thunders back there to wake her up again.
He will send it.
[This is future tense]
He promised it. Now, now, watch.
Now, she was dead.”
The 7 Thunders will give the Bride their great revival when they are changed into their glorified bodies.
Until that time, which happens after the resurrection, the Bride has a real and essential role which none of the churches is doing, the dedication to search out the mysteries of the revealed Scriptures.
We have to prove brother Branham’s revelations from the King James Bible.
So, the Bride seems dead.
Nobody else wants to understand the deeper mysteries of Scripture. Church people prefer to pursue their own interests. They prefer to serve God in a way that suits themselves. Their loyalty belongs to their church. They do not want to follow God’s final Plan for His Bride, which is to be strictly Scriptural, and finally understand the revealed Word of God.
Part of the great mystery of God is that Jesus is the Head, Almighty God Himself.
The other part of the mystery of God is His Body, the true church or Bride. The true Body of God, at the end in the Eagle-age, must be restored to the beliefs of the apostles who set up the church in the first Lion-church age.
That is the main role that the Bride has to understand and fulfill today.
DANIEL 12:10 … but the wise shall understand.
We cannot be part of the wise virgins unless we understand the written mysteries of the King James Bible that have been revealed in our day.
63-0321 THE FOURTH SEAL
“Then the seven thunders utter their strange voices, and John was going to write... It was... John knew what it was, but he didn't write it, 'cause he was forbidden to write it.
That's absolutely and altogether a mystery. It's not even in symbol or nothing. We just know he--it thundered; that's all.”
The wise virgins will understand that the seven Thunders are a total mystery. So please do not listen to anyone who claims to know what they are.
Thunders utter AFTER the mysteries are finished
63-0320 THE THIRD SEAL
“And then goes on and said, in the day just before these seven thunders, all the mysteries here are revealed.”
The mysteries of the written Word have to be revealed before the seven Thunders can utter.
63-0317 THE BREACH BETWEEN THE SEVEN CHURCH AGES AND THE SEVEN SEALS
“And here He returns back in the 10th chapter
AFTER the coming time, that all the mysteries is to be finished, and the Seals are to be broke,
and proclaiming that its time is no more. And he said, "When the seventh angel has begin to sound, then the mysteries should be finished and
time for the Angel to appear. We're close, somewhere.”
The Angel had not yet appeared when the Seals were revealed. The Thunders only utter after the Angel of Revelation 10 comes down.
The Angel only comes down AFTER the mysteries have finished being revealed.
63-0320 THE THIRD SEAL
…the seventh angel, when he sounds, all the mysteries of God should be finished up by his sounding. Then AFTER it's revealed, the Angel come down from heaven, which was Christ.
… And then goes on and said, in the day just BEFORE these seven thunders, all the mysteries here are revealed.
63-0321 THE FOURTH SEAL
“And now, these Seven Seals that this Book is sealed with, and those Seven Seals.
And then AFTER these Seven Seals are completed, we find in Revelations 10 there was seven mysterious thunders
that John was commissioned to write but then forbidden to write those.
And at the time of those thunders, we find Christ, or the Angel come down
with a rainbow, and put His feet on the land and sea and swore that time had run out at that time.”
The Thunders only utter AFTER the Seven Seals are completed. That has not yet happened. Brother Branham never revealed the Seventh Seal.
The Angel comes down to perform the resurrection.
64-0119 SHALOM
“When that Angel, of Revelation the 10th chapter, puts one foot on land and one on the sea, and a rainbow over His head, He swore, ‘time shall be no more.’
When that time comes, you'll rise up from among the dead.
While the rest of them lay there, you'll go in.
Seventh Seal hasn’t opened yet because that’s the Coming of Jesus which only happens after the resurrection.
63-0719 FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS
“That Seventh Seal hasn't opened yet, you know; that's His coming.”
Only then, after the Seven Seals are completed, does the Angel of Revelation 10 come down with the seven Thunders.
Important point: The Angel does not come down to reveal the Seven Seals. He comes down after they have been revealed. That is why He has an open Book.
62-1230 IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END SIR?
“The mystery is finished,
the Angel said, ‘Time shall be no more,’ and Seven Thunders throwed their voices out.”
The Angel comes down because the written mysteries have been successfully understood by the Bride.
That only happens when the seventh-age Bride has been restored back to the beliefs of the first church age. That is the great mystery of God that restores back to life all the dead saints in the resurrection of the New Testament saints. The entire Bride will be on earth, the complete Body of Christ. Christ then is the Head of the Body, because He is Almighty God.
Time ends when the Angel comes down.
Time can only cease for you when you step into your immortal body. Then you stop getting older. You will look as if you're about 25 years old.
Time never ended when the six Seals were revealed in 1963, because you’re still in your sinful body.
That means that the Angel never came down in 1963 when the first six Seals were revealed.
64-0830 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.3
No, no. Time didn't cease when the Seals were opened. Misunderstood it. What happened, the mysteries was revealed, not time ceased.
REVELATION 10:1 And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:
:2 And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth,
:3 And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven th unders uttered their voices.
:6 … that there should be time no longer:
“Time no longer”. The only way in which there can be no more time is when the bodies of the living Bride change as they step out of time into eternity.
64-0119 SHALOM
“When that Angel, of Revelation the 10th chapter, puts one foot on land and one on the sea, and a rainbow over His head, He swore, ‘time shall be no more.’
When that time comes, you'll rise up from among the dead. While the rest of them lay there, you'll go in.
The 7 Thunders utter after the resurrection to help the Bride step into eternity.
63-0321 THE FOURTH SEAL
“Then the seven thunders utter their strange voices, and John was going to write. John knew what it was, but he didn't write it, 'cause he was forbidden to write it.
That's absolutely and altogether a mystery. It's not even in symbol or nothing.
We just know he--it thundered; that's all.”
The seven Thunders are a total mystery.
They utter when time ends. When you step into your eternal glorified body then time ends for you. The rest of the world will continue in time for the 3.5 years of great tribulation.
There is no way that we can comprehend that amazing supernatural change now when our bodies are not changing.
The amazing supernatural power of the 7 Thunders, which helps to change our bodies for the Rapture, will then spill over onto the two Jewish prophets, Moses and Elijah. That will give them incredible power to interrupt Nature as they force the Jews back to Israel with the seven Trumpets and smite the Gentile nations with the 7 Judgement Vials.
