Revelation is an unfolding process
Any true doctrine opens up insights into other doctrines.
The doctrine of the 7 church ages produced the Revelation of the Seven Seals in the 7th age.
Please note.
This book of brother Branham's sermons on the Seven Seals is not called "the OPENING of the 7 Seals".
There is a huge difference between "the revelation of an event" before it happens and "the actual event" that happens later.
Brother Branham went beyond the curtain of time to witness, in the form of visions, what will happen when the Seven Seals open in the future when the Bride is in Heaven, in Revelation Chapter 6. He returned to reveal to us an outline of what we will see when the Seals actually open. But the Fourth Seal and Sixth Seal which deal with great Tribulation events were not revealed very specifically.
The fourth Seal described the eagle-beast and then ignored the church at the end by describing great Tribulation events. That shows how unimpressed God is with our church age. Just fit to be ignored after He has mentioned the voice of the seventh angel. Now that message churches claim to have the Voice of God, they are no longer in New Testament Scripture and God ignores them.
The Sixth Seal opened in the vision to reveal few specifics because it does not concern the Bride as it deals with great Tribulation events. Thus the Seven Trumpets and the Seven Vials are still mainly unknown to us as they are great Tribulation events.
When these Fourth and Sixth Seals actually open in the future, in Heaven, far more detail will be revealed.
The mystery of the 7th Seal opening, which has not yet happened, is linked to the mystery of the seven Thunders, which happen just after the New Testament saints' resurrection.
So we do not know about the Seventh Seal nor about the Seven Thunders.
63-0324 THE SEVENTH SEAL
... the Lamb took the Book in His hand, and He opened that Seventh Seal. But you see, it's a hidden mystery. No one knows it. But it's right along with what He said: no one would know His coming; they also would not know about this seven thunder mystery. So you see, it's connected together.
The resurrection will start the Harvest Rain or Latter Rain as these saints are pulled out of their graves, just before the Bride is pulled off the earth and caught up to Heaven about 40 days later.
For the following table, start at the bottom with the church ages and read upwards.
There is a big difference between the revelation of the Seven Seals' opening which gives us an outline of the events and the actual opening of the Seven Seals when it happens in the future in all its full details when the Bride is in Heaven.
The revelation only tells you about the event. Then you understand what is involved.
But the revelation is not the actual event itself.
The revelation of the Seven Seals' opening is easily misunderstood as the actual opening of the Seven Seals because half of the Seals (the first three Seals) refer to past events. We know a lot about those events.
But half the Seals refer to future events in the time of great Tribulation which are not well understood.
We know very little about the 3.5 years of great Tribulation and have to rely on previews that God has shown us in the past to get a better idea of these great Tribulation events.
These previews were mainly around the time of the two world wars.
Thus these Seals that deal with the future great Tribulation cannot have been opened; otherwise, we would know their details too.
Brother Branham never got around to explaining the seven Trumpets and the seven Vials that happen in the 3.5 years of great Tribulation, even though he spent more than a year wanting to preach on them.
We can understand the past events that involve the three spiritual horses (white, red, black), symbolizing the powers of religious deception, politics, and big money demonology that took over the church, as described by Revelation Chapter 6. These powers are uniting in our days, so when they are explained in "The Revelation of the Seven Seals" it easily creates the impression that those Seals must have literally been opened.
But this insight is wrong for three reasons.
- First, the Bride must have literally been caught up to Heaven, as symbolized by John in Revelation Chapter 4, before the Seals are actually opened in Heaven in Revelation Chapter 6.
Thus all the Seals literally open during the Tribulation.
Brother Branham's revelation has given us a preview of these Tribulation events.
The idea of a preview is important if we are to understand the events of the 3.5 years of great Tribulation.
The Bride will not be here during the years of great Tribulation, so God has allowed the unleashing of demonology in World War 2 as a preview, first on the Jews and then on the confederation of churches to give the Bride some idea of what these evil forces will do in the years of great Tribulation.
2. Secondly, Jesus gets off the mercy seat to meet His Bride in the air and then takes her to Heaven, where He will open the Book of Redemption in all its details.
When the Seven Seals are actually opened, there will be no more mercy for the Gentiles.
That is why the event only happens after He has brought His Bride to Heaven. The Bride members are then in their new immortal bodies and do not need a Redeemer any more. Jesus will then have a new name that the seven Thunders will have revealed.
1965 AN EXPOSITION OF THE SEVEN CHURCH AGES. CHAPTER 8. PHILADELPHIA
My New Name. When ALL becomes new, then He will take upon Him a new Name and that Name will be the Name of the bride also. What that Name is, none dare conjecture. It would have to be a revelation of the Spirit given so conclusively that none would dare deny it. But no doubt He will leave that revelation to the day when He desires to give that Name forth. Suffice it to know that it will be more wonderful than we could ever imagine.
Brother Branham told us not to dare to try and guess the new name.
We are unable even to imagine what that name is.
Nevertheless, message-pastors on their ego-trips which have educated them above their intelligence, have guessed many new names in their frantic attempts to be regarded as clever.
Guessing a new name is wrong. Brother Branham told us not to dare to do that.
This sad state of affairs further indicates the infiltration of the white horse rider's deception into these message-churches. You will only need that new name when you are in a new body, which will be after the resurrection of the New Testament saints.
Remember, nobody knows the new name. So do not let anyone fool you by claiming that he or she does know the new name.
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.
At present, we are still in our old bodies and much in need of forgiveness from our sins. We daily need Jesus to be on His mercy seat. We indicate that we have no clue what the new name of Jesus is when we still pray in the name of Jesus and baptize in the name of Jesus Christ.
Because once the new name is revealed, we will not use the name of Jesus anymore.
God was called Jehovah in the Old Testament, but once the new name of Jesus was revealed in the Gospel of Matthew, then the old name of Jehovah was never used anywhere in the New Testament.
You will never again refer to the "old name" of Jesus when the "new name" has been revealed.
Our bodies will only change after the resurrection of the dead, so that is when the new name will be revealed.
3. Thirdly, the Seals have opened in the form of a revelation that gives us an outline of what is involved with interpreting the symbols.
But certain details are still missing in the revelation of the Opening of the Seven Seals.
We do not know what the seventh Seal is. It remains a total mystery as we do not know when Jesus will come.
64-0719 THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS
The Seventh Seal hasn't opened yet, you know. That's His Coming.
So if the 7th Seal never opened, then how could the other Seals open?
We know that the sixth Seal refers to great Tribulation, but we know very little about those events.
The 7 Trumpets and 7 Vials in the Tribulation are not well understood. We know very little about them.
The fourth Seal is only half-understood as we do not know the name and details of the final antichrist Pope, symbolized by the horse rider called Death.
Verse 8 of the fourth Seal refers to the future great Tribulation.
REVELATION 6:8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
A "fourth part of the earth " is two billion people. There has been no such murder rate yet (by 2021). This lies in the future.
The Sixth Seal will only be opened by the two prophets, Moses and Elijah, during the Tribulation.
They open the Sixth Seal by producing a complete interruption of nature.
63-0323 THE SIXTH SEAL
... and have power over the waters to turn them to blood and to smite the earth with plagues as oft as they will.
What is it? What can bring these things but the Word? They can do nature any way they want to. Here it is. They're the one who brings on this Sixth Seal. They uncover and open it up. It's the power of God to interrupt nature. See, the Sixth Seal, is completely an interruption of nature.
Do you get it now? There's your Seal. Who does it? It's the prophets the other side of the rapture. With the power of God, the Word of God, they just condemn nature. They can send earthquakes, turn the moon into blood, the sun can go down or anything at their command. Amen.
There you are. There you are. See? See how the Seals opened down there in the church age, how it showed the martyrs? And now here's these two prophets standing here with the Word of God to do anything to nature they want to, and they shake the earth. And it shows exactly who does it. It's Moses and Elijah, 'cause there's their ministry re-impersonated again: both men. Oh, my. Do you see it now? See what the Sixth Seal is? It's those prophets.
Now, notice. Don't let it choke you, but watch what opened that Seal: prophets. See? Amen. There you are. Oh, we're living in the eagle day, brother, head up among the clouds. They opened that Sixth Seal. They have power to do it. Amen. There's your Sixth Seal coming open. See?
If the two Jewish prophets open the sixth Seal then brother Branham was not able to open it.
Thus brother Branham did not open either the sixth or seventh Seal.
A mysterious clap of Thunder still has to happen
Even the first Seal was not fully revealed. There was a mysterious single Thunder.
REVELATION 6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
A month before he died and brother Branham was still waiting for this mystery Thunder to happen.
65-1127 I HAVE HEARD BUT NOW I SEE
Dear God, in this solemn moment, it's going to be a time like this when there really will be a clap of thunder someday, and the Son of God shall descend from the heavens with a shout, with the voice of the Archangel, and the trump of God, the dead in Christ shall rise.
In the last month of his life, he was still waiting for the single Thunder, the shout, the voice of the Archangel, the trump of God, and the resurrection of the New Testament saints.
The first Seal cannot open until that first Thunder utters. And the first Thunder never uttered while brother Branham was alive.
If he never opened Seals 1, 6, and 7 then he never opened any Seals.
In other words, he did not actually open the Seals but gave us an explanation, in the form of a REVELATION or OUTLINE, of what will happen in the future when the Seals are opened and explained in great detail.
REVELATION 6:2 And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer.
John wrote down the First Seal as mystery symbols.
Seven angels spoke to brother Branham, and he saw visions of this future event of the Opening of the Seven Seals in Heaven, as a preview.
Consequently, we have an insight into what will happen in Revelation Chapter 6 when the Seven Seals really are opened in Heaven.
Many evil spirits can be in one man.
MARK 5:8 For he said unto him, Come out of the man, thou unclean spirit.
This implies that one evil spirit was in the man.
MARK 5:9 And he asked him, What is thy name? And he answered, saying, My name is Legion: for we are many.
Yet it was many spirits that were in the man.
The mystery rider represents the antichrist spirits of religious deception (a bow without an arrow) that established the succession of the Popes. Each time a Pope dies, a new Pope is elected. This is the longest line of rulers on the earth. By 1315 they were wearing the tiara or triple crown.
But the single Thunder was never revealed. It had not happened by the end of 1965.
So it has not happened yet (2021).
Because we know nothing about this Thunder, the First Seal has been revealed in outline, but it has not opened in all its details.
The first three and a half Seals can be well understood because they refer to historical events that have mostly happened.
(Except for the single Thunder).
But remember, the white horse of religious deception is still riding unnoticed in our day as he fools all the churches. All the churches? Yes. God says nothing good about any church of the last age of the Laodiceans.
Death, the rider of the pale horse, only rides forth in great Tribulation.
Death only enters when Life leaves.
So when the Holy Spirit catches up the Bride to Heaven, only then can Death enter.
ROMANS 8:10 ... but the Spirit is life
We do not know who this final antichrist Pope is, nor do we know the details of what he will do.
The 3.5 years of great Tribulation is something about which little has been revealed.
The two Jewish prophets will open up the Sixth Seal and the Seventh Seal has never opened yet.
Besides, it cannot be claimed that the Fourth Seal has fully opened.
It has just been revealed up to our day (verse 7), but not including the Tribulation part (verse 8).
REVELATION 6:7 And when he had opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth beast say, Come and see.
This verse we can understand. The fourth beast in Heaven is the flying eagle, representing a prophet. Brother Branham recorded his sermons so that we can listen to his voice on tape, MP4, books, or digital print.
He told us to come out of our churches and denominations that no longer refer to the King James Bible as the Absolute.
Only then will we be able to follow his revelations through the pages of the Bible.
63-0630 THE THIRD EXODUS
Listen to the Bible, the Voice of God
calling to you in this day.
The Bible is the Voice of God.
Brother Branham is not the Voice of God.
There is no mention of a "Voice of God" in the New Testament.
Brother Branham is the "voice of the seventh angel".
REVELATION 10:7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel,
when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.
63-1110 HE THAT IS IN YOU
Believe all the Message. Believe That.
If it isn't written in the Bible, then don't you believe it.
His preaching is only true when we can trace his ideas through the various verses of the Bible.
REVELATION 18:1 And after these things I saw another angel come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.
:2 And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, and is become the habitation of devils, and the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean and hateful bird.
A mighty angel came down to reveal the Light of Scripture and condemn the church systems. That sounds just like brother Branham's ministry.
REVELATION 18:2 And I heard another voice from heaven,
saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues.
This voice had nothing to do with the angel. It was "another" voice.
This was the Holy Spirit's voice that produces an inner conviction that forces us to be Scriptural.
REVELATION 6:8 And I looked, and behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given unto them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.
We know very little about this second verse of the fourth Seal because it deals with great Tribulation time.
We know that the pale colour is due to the white, red, and black horses being merged together.
Who is this final antichrist Pope? We do not know.
Who are the fourth part of the earth that are killed?
We lack the details on these issues because only the two Jewish prophets can open the Sixth Seal and reveal the full details of what happens in great Tribulation.
A REVELATION of the opening of the Seven Seals does not reveal EVERYTHING about the Seven Seals.
62-1230 IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END SIR
The mysteries. Here is "the mystery." A mystery is Scripture, is a previously hidden Truth now Divinely revealed, but (which is) a supernatural element still remains despite the revelation.
When the Seven Seals ACTUALLY OPEN, you will know all the details of those events.
The Seals open when the Bride is in Heaven, and the earth is in great Tribulation.
Then the Lamb will be able to reveal all the full details of great Tribulation to the Bride.
In addition, in our day, not all the errors of the white horse rider of religious deception have yet been revealed.
He is still riding unnoticed in our midst today as the three spiritual powers or horses, white, red, and black, merge at the end to form a pale horse. That is why there are so many different message-groups.
Much error is being spread today in the name of the message and many message-people are being fooled so that they cannot find the full truth that the apostles once delivered to the first church age.
"All the tithes belong to the pastor" is not a Scriptural statement. That is not how people's money should be dealt with.
"The pastor is the head of the church" is not a Scriptural statement. That simply gives the church a wrong structure.
Very subtly, brother Branham has been elevated from the "voice of the seventh angel" to being "the Voice of God".
Saying that brother Branham is infallible is just awful.
61-0118 JESUS CHRIST THE SAME YESTERDAY TODAY AND FOREVER
'Cause we are finite, we make mistakes.
God's infallible, and infinite, and cannot make a mistake.
62-1007 THE KEY TO THE DOOR
... and they're preaching that men should leave their wives and hunt for their spiritual mate,
and that I am perfectly infallible. That there's nothing... And, oh, some of the awfullest things you ever heard.
Saying that the message of brother Branham is the Absolute is dishonest as there are obvious mistakes in places.
Some obvious mistakes made by brother Branham
He predicted the destruction of America by 1977 and that never happened.
60-1113 CONDEMNATION BY REPRESENTATION
Then I seen the United States as one smoldering, burnt-over place. It will be near the end. (Then I've got in parenthesis: "I predict that this will take place." Now, remember, the Lord ne... That's what the Lord showed, but "I predict this will take place before 1977.")
In "The Seventieth Week of Daniel" he claimed that the time of great Tribulation would be seven years.
61-0806 THE SEVENTIETH WEEK OF DANIEL
The moment He starts the seventieth week, or seven years, the church is gone.
Scripture gives the time of great Tribulation as being 3.5 years.
In "The Serpent's Seed" he spoke of Nicaea, France. The Nicaean Council had nothing to do with France.
He also spoke of the Thessalonica church age. There was no such church age.
Then he said it was 325 years to the Laodicean Council. Not true. This Laodicean Council was in AD 363 - 364.
Then message-pastors have been so deceived that they claim that it is a sin to correct the prophet.
58-0928 THE SERPENT'S SEED
... and they went on for several years (three hundred and twenty-five years) finally came to Nicaea, France, where they had the great Nicene Council.
... each one of those church ages on up to that Thessalonica church age,
the fifteen hundred years of dark ages,
... And it's exactly three hundred and twenty-five years to the Laodicean council.
But let us correct these statements.
He meant the Thyatira church age, not the non-existent Thessalonica church age.
And it was 325 years to the Nicaean Council, not the Laodicean Council.
Nicaea is a city in Asia Minor, close to Constantinople (called Istanbul today).
We have to check the facts before we just repeat a quote. We are not supposed to be parrots that repeat words without understanding them.
57-0825 HEBREWS CHAPTER TWO.1
In the Old Testament, before a prophet's word could be made manifest,
it had to be examined and proved.
They wasn't loose with it, like we are today.
We have to check what brother Branham said before regarding it as the truth.
Message-people claiming that brother Branham is infallible and never makes mistakes have merely created a backlash where skeptics collect his mistakes and call him a fraud and a liar.
We need the wisdom to walk between these two extremes.
Most of what he said is the truth. A very inspired truth. But where he got things wrong we must be honest enough to admit it and then correct it. That takes the sting out of the skeptic's accusations.
And it "socially distances" us from the dangerous extremist views of those who wish to elevate brother Branham to the Godhead as the infallible, absolute Voice of God. Coronavirus 2020 was God teaching us "social distancing", not to get too close to the opinions of pastors who want to dominate our thinking.
The word "Pastors" is only mentioned once in the New Testament. But they are condemned six times, prophetically, in the Old Testament. Not an impressive track record. Nowhere in the New Testament was a pastor put in charge of a church.
We do not know all the details about this antichrist rider with his religious deception, his love of elevating himself by dominating the people, and his passion for Big Money, but we can clearly see that he is still riding and many are being fooled by him today. Hence all the unscriptural message-doctrines and wealthy church leaders.
The Bride is in Heaven when the Seals actually open
AMOS 3:7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets.
If brother Branham opened the Seals, then somebody else must have previously revealed them.
But nobody ever did that. Church people have just made a mess of the Seals.
Read the following table downwards from the green bock to the yellow block.
Brother Branham has to reveal the Seals on earth before God can open them in Heaven, in Revelation Chapter 6.
This only happens after the Bride is caught up into Heaven in Revelation Chapter 4.
REVELATION 4:1
After this I looked, and, behold, a door was opened in heaven: and the first voice which I heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with me; which said, Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.
In Revelation Chapter 5 the Bride is around the throne of God in Heaven.
REVELATION 5:7 And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
:9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain,
and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
63-0324 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON THE SEALS
QUESTION
In Revelation [Chapter 5] verse 5 to 9, who are these found singing when the Lamb takes the Book out of the…. Are these the raptured saints?
ANSWER
"And they sang a new song," and I stopped. See? But look here, "the song they sang, saying, You have redeemed us out of every kindred, tongue, and nation."
Sure, that's them.
My, oh, my, oh, my. See it?
You, as a member of the Bride, will be in Heaven during the Wedding Supper when Jesus actually opens the Seven Seals in all their details.
Brother Branham only revealed six of the seven Seals.
64-0719 THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS
The Seventh Seal hasn't opened yet, you know. That's His Coming.
The Seventh Seal is the Coming of the Lord. The biggest mystery in the universe.
If you think you know that the Lord has already come, then you are totally fooled.
In the last month of his life brother Branham was still looking for the Coming of the Lord.
65-1204 THE RAPTURE
I do believe that we are living in the closing scenes of the history of this world.
I truly believe that the Coming of the Lord is closer, perhaps, than we think.
One month before he died and he was still looking for the Coming of the Lord.
65-1127 I HAVE HEARD BUT NOW I SEE
O man and women, tonight, if you could look around and
see how close we are to the Coming of the Lord.
Brother Branham could not open the Sixth Seal as that ministry is reserved for the two Jewish prophets, Moses and Elijah.
63-0323 THE SIXTH SEAL
Don't let it choke you, but watch what opened that Seal: prophets.
See? Amen. There you are. Oh, we're living in the eagle day, brother, head up among the clouds.
They opened that Sixth Seal. They have power to do it.
Amen. There's your Sixth Seal coming open. See?
So, half of the fourth Seal is unknown in detail as it concerns the final antichrist Pope in great Tribulation and an unspecified quarter of the world that he kills.
The two prophets will open the Sixth Seal in great Tribulation with their great supernatural power to interrupt nature. They can open the Sixth Seal in great Tribulation because when Jesus is in Heaven opening the Seals, great Tribulation is happening on earth.
Two and a half Seals have certainly not opened yet.
(Half of the fourth Seal, the sixth Seal, and the seventh Seal).
Thus none of the Seals have yet opened.
The 3.5 years of great Tribulation is the time when the Seven Seals will literally be opened.
So, never mistake the revelation of the 7 Seals for the actual opening of the 7 Seals.
A “revelation” can be called the “opening up of the outlines or main points” of the events. But some deep details remain hidden.
Isaiah gave a revelation of the virgin birth, but that gave no details of the event.
Isaiah’s revelation left out the details:
A smelly stable belonging to an overcrowded inn or hotel in Bethlehem at a tax-paying time was visited by sweaty shepherds. No mention of the donkey that carried Mary and Jesus to Bethlehem from Nazareth.
A donkey also carried Him in triumph on Palm Sunday. Jesus never rode a horse because a horse rider symbolized the antichrist spirits in Revelation Chapter 6.
The actual opening of the Seven Seals happens in Heaven
64-0719 THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS
The Gentile, when them Seals was opened, is sealed away; time is ended; the Church is called.
“Time is ended”.
Time only ends for the Bride after the resurrection when their bodies are changed into new eternal bodies.
Your immortal body seals you away from sin, sickness, and death.
Time causes changes that lead to decay, getting older, and death.
In an immortal body, you will have the Holy Spirit flowing through your veins instead of blood, and thus, you will never get older, nor will you get sick, nor die. Thus, you will be free from time and its deteriorating changes.
This immortal body is your crown of reward.
Your immortal body will have no belly button (which is the mark of the beast on our bodies) and no blood.
Squeeze the end of your finger and see it go redder. There will be no colour change in their fingers when you meet the resurrected saints.
CORINTHIANS 15:50 Now this I say, brethren, that flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God;
56-0304 MAKING A WAY
When you're sick and tired of this whole life, and you love the appearing of the Lord Jesus better than you love your food at the table, or your wife, or your children, then there's a crown laid up for you, not a crown, a gold crown they put upon your head, but a body free from pain of... crowned in the glory of God, crowned in the immortality of Jesus Christ. That's what's laid up for you, that the Lord, the righteous Judge, will give you it that day. That's the day we look forward to. God has made a way of escape for every one of us, certainly He has.
The Seventh Seal will only break after the Angel comes down.
61-0730 GABRIEL'S INSTRUCTIONS TO DANIEL
Revelations 10, at the end we find when the last Seal was broke, we find the Angel standing with one foot on the land and one on the sea, with His hands up to heaven, and a rainbow over His head, swearing by Him that lives forever and ever, that time has run out on the last Seal.
But the last or 7th Seal hasn’t broken yet. It has not been opened. It has not even been revealed yet.
Thus, the Angel has not yet come down because He comes down to perform the resurrection.
64-0119 SHALOM
" And when the great Director comes down and bears that stick down, then, "time shall be no more." 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.
63-1110 SOULS THAT ARE IN PRISON NOW
The Seventh Seal brings Him back to earth.
But the Seventh Seal has not opened yet.
63-0324 THE SEVENTH SEAL
I mean Revelations the 10th chapter and the 1 to the 7th verse. Time runs out.
The angel said,
"Time will be no more," in the days of this great thing to happen.
Everything runs out in this time, at the end of this Seventh Seal.
The coming down of the mighty Angel in Revelation Chapter 10 is still a future event.
Time only runs out when you step into eternity.
You can only do that in your new glorified body that has no blood and no belly button.
The 7 Thunders utter at the end when your body changes
The seven church ages produce the Seven Seals in the 7th church age.
The Seventh Seal is revealed by the seven Thunders.
So, the Seven Thunders utter their seven voices at the time of the Seventh Seal.
At His First Coming, there were 40 days between the resurrection of Jesus and His ascension to heaven.
ACTS 1:2 Until the day in which he [Jesus] was taken up [day of ascension], after that he through the Holy Ghost had given commandments unto the apostles whom he had chosen:
:3 To whom also he shewed himself alive after his passion [death, burial, and resurrection] by many infallible proofs,
being seen of them forty days,
and speaking of the things pertaining to the kingdom of God:
There will be a similar time period between the resurrection of the New Testament saints and when they are caught up to Heaven.
The seven thunders utter in the approximately 40 days between the times of the resurrection of the saints from the seven church ages, and the catching up of the Bride to meet the Lord in the air
Harvest is when the wheat seeds are pulled off the stalks.
So, the dead saints are pulled out of their graves, and then the complete Bride is pulled off the earth into Heaven.
This is the time of the Harvest rain, also called the Latter Rain.
Brother Branham's ministry began the former or teaching rain when he began recording his sermons in 1947.
The former or teaching rain will continue right up to the Coming of the Lord (often called the Rapture) as the Bride will continue to learn during the time of the seven Thunders.
This will be a time of overlap between the teaching and harvest rains.
Thus the former rain of learning will be intense during the seven Thunders as we learn how to change and move into our new bodies.
JOEL 2:23 Be glad then, ye children of Zion, and rejoice in the LORD your God: for he hath given you the former rain moderately, and he will cause to come down for you the rain,
the former rain, and the latter rain in the first month.
The latter (harvest) rain will overlap with the former (teaching) rain for one month, thirty days.
This 30 day-overlap easily fits into the 40 days between the resurrection and the rapture.
63-0324 THE SEVENTH SEAL
Here now, we find that the Sixth Seal has been opened to us; we see it, and we know that this Seventh Seal cannot be broke to the public until that hour arrives.
Message-pastors fool the people by saying that they know what the Seventh Seal is.
They claim that the Seventh Seal is only hidden from the public which they claim are the non-message people who are not the Bride.
But they are wrong as this next quote reveals that the Seventh Seal has not been revealed to us, the Bride.
63-1110 SOULS THAT ARE IN PRISON NOW
The Lamb took His Book when, the Seventh Seal just ready for it to be opened, the Sixth Seal. Remember,
He hid the Seventh Seal from us. He wouldn't do it.
When the Angel stood, day by day, telling it, but then He wouldn't do it on that one. Said, "There is silence in Heaven." No one knew. It was the Coming of the Lord.
Anyone who says that they know the Seventh Seal mystery is just being a conceited mouthpiece for the antichrist white horse rider.
63-0324 THE SEVENTH SEAL
One of the mystery of that [seventh] Seal,
the reason it wasn't revealed, it was seven thunders that uttered their voices,
and there it is perfectly,
because nothing knows anything about it; wasn't even written.
… Now, now, do you notice on
the opening of this Seventh Seal, it's also in a threefold mystery.
This one I have... will speak, and have spoke, that it is the mystery of the seven thunders.
The seven thunders in heaven will unfold this mystery.
It'll be right at the coming of Christ, because Christ said no one knew when He would return.
The very mysterious 7 Thunders will reveal the mystery of the 7th Seal.
Only two groups, the Bride and the two Jewish prophets, will respond to or understand the seven Thunders when they utter.
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,
You cannot be caught up to meet the Lord in the air until you have a new body.
Getting a new immortal body is the most supernatural thing that will happen to you in this age.
The proof that you have understood what the seven Thunders uttered is when you receive your new body.
Only then can you be caught up to meet the Lord in the air.
Then the seven Thunders have to give huge supernatural power to Moses and Elijah.
63-0321 THE FOURTH SEAL
Now, we had him [antichrist spirit on a red political horse] coming last night with his great sword to kill. We find out that he gets killed with the Sword too, the sword of the Word. God's Word, sharp, two-edged sword slays him, puts him right down.
Wait till them seven thunders utter their voices to that group who really can take the Word of God and hand it there. It'll slice and cut. And they can close the heavens; they can shut this or do that, whatever they want to. Glory.
He will be slayed by the Word that proceeds from His mouth; it's sharper than a two-edged sword.
They could call for a hundred billion tons of flies if they wanted to. Amen.
Whatever they say's going to happen, because it's the Word of God coming from the mouth of God.
When great Tribulation starts, then the seven Trumpets will force many Jews to return to Israel.
7 judgement Vials on the people who rejected the Word
Meanwhile, the seven Vials will pour judgment out onto the world for rejecting the revelation of the Seven Seals.
There is another factor to consider.
There is also a single Thunder which will produce the shout, which produces the voice, which produces the trump of God.
I THESSALONIANS 4:16 For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
There will be a single Thunder when the first Seal opens.
REVELATION 6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals,
and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder,
one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
From 1947 - 1965 was the days of the seventh angel.
From 1966 onwards are the days of the VOICE of the seventh angel when we use his recorded sermons, written and spoken, to understand the written Word of God. The revealed truth now circulates the world on the internet.
After the resurrection, the seven Thunders will reveal the unwritten mysteries (Seventh Seal, seven Thunders, how to change our bodies, and the new name of Jesus).
After the rapture, the Gospel returns to the Jews in the Tribulation. Seven Trumpets will force the Jews to return to Israel.
The Shout will only happen when the Bride is Scriptural
The "Shout" is still in the future. The Bride has to be Scriptural
65-1127 I HAVE HEARD BUT NOW I SEE
Dear God, in this solemn moment, it's going to be a time like this when there really will be a clap of thunder someday,
and the Son of God shall descend from the heavens with a shout,
with the voice of the Archangel, and the trump of God, the dead in Christ shall rise.
Brother Branham said this one month before he died.
He was still looking for the “shout” of the message.
65-1204 THE RAPTURE
Therefore, the Message calls the Bride together, see, the shout.
… shout, what is the shout? It's the Message going forth, first, the living Bread of Life
bringing forth the Bride.
The "shout" was not him preaching the Truth because having preached the truth, he was still waiting for the shout at some future time.
The "shout" is when the Bride finally can understand the truth of the written Bible for themselves.
The next table must be read upwards, starting with "One Thunder" at the bottom.
The message or "shout" is the completion of an on-going process until all the Bride members have learned to be Scriptural.
Only then will the message have achieved its purpose.
The message has two parts.
First, brother Branham revealed the Bible's mysteries by using Scripture to illuminate Scripture as he showed us how to link various Bible verses together.
Then comes the second part of the message, which is to get the Bride to be able to prove these truths for themselves just by using Bible verses.
64-0719 THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPET
When finished, at Laodicean Age, according to Revelations 10, the mystery of all the Bible would be knowed to the Bride.
Is that right? Revelations 10.
The Bride needs to have a full understanding of Scripture.
65-1127 I HAVE HEARD BUT NOW I SEE
The same One, He, with a loud voice, He screamed out with that shout and a voice, and woke Lazarus. With a loud voice He cried, "Lazarus, come forth." See?
And the voice wakes up the sleeping Bride, the sleeping dead.
Christ is the mighty Angel or Archangel whose voice wakes up the dead.
64-0119 SHALOM
And when the great Director comes down and beats that stick down, then, "time shall be no more." 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.
Revelation Chapter 10 has the Archangel raising the dead saints.
65-1204 THE RAPTURE
A shout; and then a voice; and then a trumpet.
Shout: a messenger getting the people ready.
The second is a voice of the resurrection:
the same voice, that, a loud voice in Saint John 11:38-44, that called Lazarus from the grave.
Note. The “shout” was not the messenger learning the truth of the message.
The shout was getting the Bride people ready by getting them to understand the Bible.
First, getting the Bride ready to understand the written Bible, and then the resurrection of the dead.
The “shout” was not brother Branham preaching the truth by revealing Scripture.
The “shout” is when the individual Bride members are able to prove that truth from Scripture by themselves.
Then the Bible becomes an open Book to them so that they can understand what they read.
That is why the Archangel descends with an open Book.
The Bride members have learned how to read and understand the Bible.
This is symbolized by John being able to digest the Book.
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,
The Angel does not come down to open the Book and reveal the Seals.
He comes down because the Book has been opened.
62-1230 IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END SIR
The other angels was messengers, men of the earth. But this Angel... These, that said, "To the angel of the church of Laodicea," "To the angel of the church of Ephesus," messengers of the earth; see, men, messengers, prophets, and so forth, to the church.
But, this One didn't come from the earth.
He come down from Heaven,
because the mystery is all finished.
And when the mystery is finished, the Angel said, "Time shall be no more," and Seven Thunders throwed their voices out.
What if it is something to let us know how to
enter into the Rapturing Faith? Is it?
Will we run,
leap over walls?
And is there something fixing to happen, and these old, marred,
vile bodies are going to be changed?
The seven Thunders are involved with rapturing faith and the changing of our bodies.
The "wall" is the barrier between us and the supernatural.
The supernatural is part of eternity, but we are prisoners of time.
The "wall of time" or "curtain of time" stops us from seeing the future.
We need the help of the seven Thunders to overcome death, by not dying, and then change from the natural to the supernatural body by jumping over the wall of time that stops us from seeing and being part of the supernatural.
63-0724 GOD DOESN'T CALL MAN TO JUDGMENT WITHOUT FIRST WARNING HIM
Oh, not many in number, but what a powerful group that's got Eternal Life! Said,
"They shall run through a troop and leap over a wall."
Yes, the "troop" of death will have no holders to it, She'll run right through it.
Leap over the "wall" between natural and Supernatural,
and go into the arms of God, into that great Eternity. Lord God, we thank You for this. We know the time is approaching at hand.
II SAMUEL 22:29 For thou art my lamp, O LORD: and the LORD will lighten my darkness.
We have much to learn from Scripture to enlighten ourselves about running through all the troop of demons of death that want to kill us at the end. Then we can get our new immortal bodies. Then, leaping over the wall of time in these new bodies so that we can enter eternity by being caught up to meet the Lord in the air.
II SAMUEL 22:29 For by thee I have run through a troop: by my God have I leaped over a wall.
We need to be aware that we have to change and not just continue complacently sleeping in a comfortable church.
There is a distant single Thunder in the future, which is to start giving the Bride a wake-up call.
63-0319 THE SECOND SEAL
God, help our unbelief. Take it away from us, Lord.
We want to receive rapturing grace.
We want to be able when that mysterious thunder thunders out yonder,
and the Church is taken up, we want to be ready to receive it, Lord.
The 7 Thunders will produce the supernatural power to give us our new bodies and then give us rapturing faith which produces the trump of God.
The 7 Thunders will also give Moses and Elijah supernatural power to interrupt nature in the 3.5 years of great Tribulation.
Great Tribulation then produces the 7 Trumpets to force stubborn Jews back to Israel and the 7 Vials to punish the world for rejecting the revelation of the mysteries of Scripture.
The mystery of the Thunders is held by the 7 angels who formed the supernatural 1963 cloud.
63-0317 GOD HIDING HIMSELF IN SIMPLICITY THEN REVEALING HIMSELF IN THE SAME
And I believe that the Seven Angels who's holds these seven thunders will grant it.
The Cloud of 1963 was not the Angel of Revelation 10
The cloud was formed by 7 angels but was not the Angel of Revelation Chapter 10 coming down to raise the dead.
64-0119 SHALOM
And when the great Director comes down and bears that stick down, then, "time shall be no more." 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 will rise up from among the dead.
While the rest of them lay there, you will go in.
The dead have not risen.
So, this quote, one year after the cloud, has brother Branham looking for the mighty Angel in the future.
The cloud was not the coming of the Lord.
The Lord does not come to a desert.
MATTHEW 24:26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you,
Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth:
The supernatural cloud of 28 February 1963 was just north of the city of Flagstaff in Arizona, and was only visible for 28 minutes after sunset at the height of 42 kilometers.
The seven angels came to brother Branham 8 days later near Sunset Peak, 200 miles south of Flagstaff. No cloud was formed that day by the angels either as they descended or ascended.
But Sunset Peak is in the great Sonoran desert.
And Christ will not come in the desert.
The supernatural cloud was not an event in itself (because there was nobody spiritual underneath it in Flagstaff and brother Branham knew nothing about it for almost 3 months), but it was the sign of the Son of man in the Heaven.
MATTHEW 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven:
A sign that the secrets of the Seven Seals were going to be revealed so that we could then start understanding the Bible's mysteries.
The Bible is full of interesting mysteries that we ignore because we are too lazy to use brother Branham's quotes to understand Scripture.
Why did Elisha curse 42 children to death for insulting him?
Why did Jephthah kill his daughter, who was first to come out of his house?
Why did Matthew and Mark record one angel at the tomb when Luke and John recorded two angels?
Why does Matthew not record the ascension of Jesus?
In Matthew, Mary held Jesus by the feet but in John, He told her not to touch Him. Why?
The Bible is full of these simple mysteries that most people cannot understand and thus dismiss.
But the mighty Angel comes down with an open Book.
REVELATION 10:2 And he had in his hand
a little book open:
A "little" Book open.
Only a few will believe the Absolute Truth of the King James Version of the Bible.
It all depends on the God that you took from this Holy Book.
Because Jesus is the Word of God.
So if you have any criticism of Scripture, then you are criticizing Jesus. That is a foolish move on your part.
LUKE 12:32 Fear not, little flock; for it is your Father's good pleasure to give you the kingdom.
MATTHEW 18:20 For where two or three are gathered together in my name, there am I in the midst of them.
LUKE 18:8 Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh, shall he find faith on the earth?
Few will make it in the end.
The Angel comes down to perform the resurrection.
Before that happens, the Bride must be able to understand the Book, the Holy Bible.
That is the final purpose of brother Branham’s message.
Sadly, for most message-people, the Bible remains a basically closed Book where much of it is not understood.
Message-people are no longer even concerned about all the mysteries and puzzles in the Bible that they cannot understand.
They are not really interested.
Like the ten virgins who are fast asleep at the end time, they do not want their self-satisfied illusions to be disturbed.
A spiritual virus that sweeps through the message-groups and churches is called Bible-illiteracy.
63-0318 THE FIRST SEAL
Takes the Book of Seals and breaks them and shows the seventh angel,
for this alone, the mysteries of God, is the ministry of the seventh angel.
65-0718 TRYING TO DO GOD A SERVICE WITHOUT BEING THE WILL OF GOD
And then in that great observatory, so that the world will be without, they're still wondering what happened.
In Tucson, them big observatories took the picture of it up there;
still wondering what happened. What is it? They still put in the paper, "Does anybody know anything about what, how it could have happen?" There is no fog up there, there's no air, there's no moisture; thirty miles high in the air. Oh, my!
"There shall be signs in the heaven above. And when these things take place, earthquakes in divers places,
then shall appear the sign in the heaven, of the Son of man."
The supernatural cloud was a sign that God was going to reveal the Seven Seals.
However, the seventh Seal was revealed to be a total mystery, linked to the second Coming of Christ.
The unleashing of demonology by Hitler
MATTHEW 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days
shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
The “tribulation of those days” was the murder of six million Jews in World War 2, known as the Holocaust.
Then those murderous demons changed their tactics when the war ended in 1945 and they entered the World Council of Churches when it started in 1948.
This Holocaust was a preview of the Sixth Seal,
which revealed the time of great Tribulation.
The Holocaust was also a preview of the Sixth Trumpet
which reveals the unleashing of demonology on natural Israel by the dictators Hitler and Stalin during the Second World War.
64-0719M THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS
Can't you see how that Trumpet, of persecution under Hitler and them, blasted?
And the Jews was forced to come together, to fulfill the Scriptures.
… notice what happens under that
Sixth Trumpet. They were turned loose on the Jews; the persecution of the Jews. Supernatural devils, nearly two thousand years, then loosed by Stalin, Hitler, upon the Jews.
You say, "Well, that isn't Roman." It's the same spirit. They done the same things they did to the Christians, in the old pagan Roman days. Now watch the natural Israel, and the spiritual Church now, as we separate it here. Turned loose on the Jews.
So, the vicious dictators unleashed these murderous spirits from ancient pagan Rome that began killing Christians in the early church. Almost all the apostles were killed.
When the barbarians destroyed the pagan Roman Empire then these cruel pagan spirits crept into the Roman Catholic church and produced the murder of tens of millions of Christians in the Dark Ages.
In 1648 the final religious war between Catholics and Protestants in Europe stopped out of sheer exhaustion on both sides. John Wesley stayed out of politics, and his holiness and brotherly love campaign became very influential about 1750. Wesley preached in the open air for many decades. This led to the great missionary age. Under that influence, the Roman Catholic church had to stop killing dissenters. Christian standards effectively bound these killing-spirits in the churches.
The mass killing of the First World War made democratic governments desperate to survive against a powerful enemy. Democratic governments became very dictatorial as they took control of all means of production in their war economy. Government control over the state expanded in their desire to destroy the enemy and their power to oppress their own people.
These ruthlessly savage years saw an annihilation of “both heart and intelligence” in the fighters. The endless brutality destroyed common humanity and on those ruins rose the ghastly spirit of merciless dictatorship. This spirit was absorbed by Lenin and Stalin in Russia, Mussolini in Italy, and finally by the depraved Hitler in Germany.
These dictators released millions of demons onto the Jews as a preview of what will happen in the 3.5 years of great Tribulation.
REVELATION 9:14 Saying to the sixth angel which had the trumpet, Loose the four angels which are bound in the great river Euphrates.
:16 And the number of the army of the horsemen were two hundred thousand thousand: and I heard the number of them.
The Euphrates was in Eden and thus has a religious significance.
As a result of being religious demons, and because the pagan Romans believed in trinity, 25 December, and in killing many of the early Bible-believing Christians, these demons could enter the World Council of Churches when it started in 1948. Their aim was to kill the truth by getting people to disregard the King James Version of the Bible. At the first exodus, Pharaoh killed Jewish children. Today there are 50 million abortions annually as doctors and nurses kill the little children. A sign of the times that the third exodus of the Bride coming out of the church is happening.
So, World War 2 gave us a preview of the horror of the Sixth Seal (as a symbol of great Tribulation) and the sixth Trumpet (as a symbol of the intense anti-Jewish hatreds in the world) that ended in 1945 when the war ended.
MATTHEW 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days
shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven,
and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
The “sun” symbolizes the Bible as the source of our light.
The churches have since produced over 100 different versions of the English Bible. These versions keep changing as their modern scholarship is never finalized. Almost all Christians, including message-people, now believe that there are mistakes in the 1769 Version of the King James Bible. Thus, the Bible is no longer the Absolute, and people rely on human quotes to replace Scripture. The light of the sun (Bible) is now modified or no longer regarded as the perfect truth, thus its Light is darkened.
The moon is the church that reflects the sunlight. The church today no longer proves what they believe just from Scripture. They use human quotes and opinions as their Absolute. So, the church no longer reflects the Light of the King James Version of the Bible.
“Stars”. The descendants of Abraham.
The natural seed are the Jews, and the spiritual seed are the Christians.
GENESIS 15:5 And he brought him forth abroad, and said, Look now toward heaven, and tell the stars, if thou be able to number them: and he said unto him, So shall thy seed be.
"Stars shall fall from heaven".
The preachers fall from their heavenly calling of being strictly Scriptural.
DANIEL 12:3 And they that be wise shall shine as the brightness of the firmament;
and they that turn many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.
Stars are preachers who turn people to righteousness by making them Scriptural.
ROMANS 4:5 But to him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly,
his faith is counted for righteousness.
ROMANS 10:17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.
After the Second World War, the stars, who are the preachers, fell from their heavenly calling of teaching the Bible and gave way to acceptable man-made errors and church popularity.
Same-sex marriage means that the churches have sunk to the level of Sodom and Gomorrah.
Preachers will no longer teach people that the King James Version of the Bible is the Absolute.
Quotes will replace Scripture.
“I have a quote” will become more important than, “It is written …”
That is a sad mistake.
“And the powers of heavens shall be shaken”.
Heaven can be referred to as the atmosphere. All of our scientific laws of atmospheric physics were shaken by the supernatural cloud formed by angel’s wings on 28 December 1963. This was just north of the city of Flagstaff in Arizona.
This was indeed a supernatural sign in the heaven that could not be explained by science.
But it vindicated the ministry of William Branham as those same 7 angels met him 8 days later near Sunset Peak, which is 200 miles south of Flagstaff, and then began to give him the commission to preach on the revelation of the 7 Seals.
MATTHEW 24:30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven:
The sign was the great Cloud. The event that it pointed to was the Revelation of the Seven Seals that opened up the hidden mysteries of the Bible.
There were actually two clouds.
7 angels supernaturally caused one, and the other one was caused by the smoke debris of an exploded rocket launched from Vandenburg Airforce Base in California.
We need a high-altitude smoke cloud to fulfill Acts 2:19.
ACTS 2:19 And I will shew wonders in heaven above, and signs in the earth beneath; blood, and fire, and vapour of smoke:
Water vapour makes a rain cloud. Smoke vapour makes a smoke cloud.
This photograph was taken from the city of Winslow in Arizona which was in the path of the moving clouds.
This meant that science had no explanation for the second big cloud. If there had only been one cloud then science could have dismissed it as caused by the rocket explosion.
Science could not explain the big cloud because there were two clouds and only one rocket explosion. Natural clouds do not form above about 20 kilometers at the highest. Thus a cloud at 42 kilometers height had no natural explanation.
Many message-people prefer to deny the second smoke cloud, despite its being present in many photographs. That is real self-deception. They quote a few high-altitude wind speed measurements taken on 1 March, which are just too slow to move the smoke cloud from Vandenburg to Flagstaff in the allocated time. But the cloud was photographed the previous day on 28 February when no wind speed measurements were taken at Vandenberg Airforce Base. Nobody knows how fast the wind was on 28 February when the smoke cloud formed. But the photograph shows that the smoke cloud was over Flagstaff when the supernatural cloud formed. Thus the wind was fast enough on the previous day.
They look at a photograph of two clouds and then totally ignore the second cloud because it does not fit their theory.
A teacher cannot ignore the evidence. A pastor obviously feels he can.
There were three topics that brother Branham wanted to preach on after he had finished explaining the Seven Seals.
In 1963, after the Seven Seals, brother Branham wanted to preach on the seven Trumpets and the seven Vials, as well as the seven Thunders.
Thus he had never properly or fully explained these three topics.
63-0321 THE FOURTH SEAL
I'll be back again then in a little over a month or two or something like that....
Then we've got seven trumpets here to come forth yet.
You see? And them all comes in there too, and the seven vials to be poured out
By 1963 the 7 Trumpets and 7 Vials had not yet happened.
63-0324 THE SEVENTH SEAL
I mean Revelations the 10th chapter and the 1 to the 7th verse.
Time runs out. The angel said, "Time will be no more," when
in the days of this great thing to happen.
Everything runs out in this time, at the end of this Seventh Seal.
Notice, it's the end of the church age. It's the end of the Seven Seals. It's the end of the trumpets. It's the end of the vials, and even ends the ushering in of the Millennium; that's on the Seventh Seal.
The Seventh Seal, when it happens, ends everything.
Three weeks after the supernatural cloud was photographed on 28 February 1963 and brother Branham is still looking forward to the mighty Angel coming down as a future event.
1963 03 24 THE SEVENTH SEAL
I would like to come back and set another seven nights for the Seven Last Trumpets.
He was keen to preach on the Trumpets and Vials.
63-0630 THE THIRD EXODUS
And we're now facing a time for the Seven Trumpets, and then the Vials. And maybe we could put a two-weeks meeting and put both of them together. I'd like to get it taped.
63-0728 CHRIST IS THE MYSTERY OF GOD REVEALED
And we'll be coming back here, hold... And then
the Seven Trumpets is coming up right away, the Lord willing, Seven Last Plagues, and the Vials,
and so forth, just as we can, get a little cooler weather, maybe, or something, however the Lord leads.
63-0818 THE UNITING TIME AND SIGN
Revelation 10 said, "The seventh angel's Message." Now remember,
that's right at the Seven Trumpets,
and there's seven angels blowing Seven Trumpets. That's what we're coming to next.
The seven Trumpets are coming up next after the seventh angel’s message.
These 7 Trumpets are not for the Gentiles; they are to call the Jews back to Israel in the Tribulation.
63-0818 THE UNITING TIME AND SIGN
Revelation 10 said, "The seventh angel's Message." Now remember, that's right at the Seven Trumpets, and there's seven angels blowing Seven Trumpets. That's what we're coming to next.
But remember there, very specifically It said, "The angel's...,
" not the seventh angel's Trumpet, but the "seventh angel's Message."
See, not the Trumpet angel, the Message angel!
See, the angel only sounded the trumpet, that seventh angel. The Trumpet angel was this, that in the days of the Message of the seventh angel; see, when his Message is finished. See, that's the church age Message.
And this time, then he would...
the Message, not the Trumpet, and "the mystery of God (that's written in the Word) should be finished."
The seventh angel who brings the message is not the seventh angel who blows the trumpet in the time of great Tribulation.
The message angel reveals the mysteries of the written Word.
63-0818 THE UNITING TIME AND SIGN
And this time, then he would...
the Message, not the Trumpet,
and "the mystery of God (that's written in the Word) should be finished."
Please remember, the 7th message angel is different from the 7th Trumpet angel.
Many message people, in error, are calling brother Branham the 7th trumpet angel.
The message only reveals what is written in the Bible
The message has its limits; it only reveals the mystery of God that is written in the Bible.
62-1230 IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END SIR
Now, you remember when that was told there, the angels and the church ages. And now, in this, it'll dovetail right into these Seven Seals that we're coming to speak.
And the Seven Seals that we're trying to speak of, when they come this time, is the seven written Seals.
And these Seven Seals, as you know, is just the manifestation of the seven angels of the seven churches; but, there are seven other Seals that's on the backside of the Book,
It's outside the Bible.
“Outside the Bible” is not correct. He means that certain mysteries are hidden in the Bible without actually being written in the Bible.
The seventh angel does NOT reveal the mysteries that are not written: the seventh Seal, the seven Thunders, and the new name.
62-1230 IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END SIR
But it is the seventh angel that had this type of Message. What was it? Notice his type of Message,
"Finishing all the mysteries of God, that are written in the Book."
The seventh angel is winding up all the mysteries that's laying loose-ended, all out through these organizations and denominations. The seventh angel gathers them up, and finishes the entire mystery. That's what the Bible said,
"Finishes the mystery of the written Book."
… The Word comes. "The Book that is written within," is then completed when this, all these mysteries have finished to be sounded.
… "And in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, all this mystery that's written within should be finished." It should be taken care of, in that day….Then is the time for the seven voices of Revelations 10 to be revealed.
When the Book is finished,
there is only one thing left, and that's
the seven mysterious voices of thunder that was wrote on the backside of the Book,
that John was forbidden to write.
On the "backside" of the Bible means they are right at the end when the written mysteries are finished.
It also means that they are not written within the Bible. They are somehow hidden in the Bible.
So, brother Branham was never meant to tell us what the Thunders actually said. What their content was.
He only revealed their function or their purpose to the Bride and the two Jewish prophets.
There is even uncertainty over where the seven Thunders utter. From earth or from Heaven?
So, the seven Thunders still remain a deep mystery
62-1230 IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END SIR
Look where the voices was, the Thunders. Not in Heaven; on earth!
The Thunders never uttered from the heavens. They uttered from the earth.
63-0324 THE SEVENTH SEAL
The seven thunders in heaven will unfold this mystery.
It'll be right at the coming of Christ, because Christ said no one knew when He would return.
The Gentile church cannot know the 7 Trumpets
The 7 Trumpets are to call the Jews back to Israel in the 3.5 years of great tribulation.
63-1110 SOULS THAT ARE IN PRISON NOW
And remember,
in that Sixth Seal, where, all Seven Trumpets sounds under that Sixth Seal.
Brother Branham was not allowed to preach on the seven Trumpets. These 7 Trumpets all sound under the Sixth Seal.
Thus, the Sixth Seal cannot have opened.
All the Trumpets sound in the Sixth Seal, which is great Tribulation time.
Thus, the Trumpets apply to the Jews in the 3.5 years of great Tribulation.
Two trumpets (symbolizing Moses and Elijah in the Tribulation) were used to call the Jews together.
After the 7 Thunders have given Moses and Elijah supernatural power over nature, they will arise in Israel, and their ministry will begin to call many Jews back to Israel.
NUMBERS 10:2 Make thee two trumpets of silver; of a whole piece shalt thou make them: that thou mayest use them for the calling of the assembly, and for the journeying of the camps.
:3 And when they shall blow with them, all the assembly shall assemble themselves to thee at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
The “door” is a symbol of Jesus as He is the Door to Heaven.
JOHN 10:9 I am the door:
So, the two prophets, symbolized by two trumpets, will introduce the Jews to their Messiah.
But for those Jews who refuse to return to Israel, God will arrange seven supernatural events, called the seven Trumpets, that will force the Jews to return.
1963 03 24 THE SEVENTH SEAL
Maybe if the Lord puts it upon my heart, maybe sometime this early summer, like in June or somewhere, maybe early fall, if the Lord tarries, I would like to come back and set another seven nights for the Seven Last Trumpets.
Brother Branham kept insisting that he wanted to preach on the seven Trumpets.
63-1124 WHAT SHALL I DO WITH JESUS CALLED CHRIST
And the Seven Trumpets, we will try to preach them up there at that school. And that will give plenty of seating room, you see, so we can get the people in.
For over a year he would want to preach on the seven Trumpets.
63-1124 WHAT SHALL I DO WITH JESUS CALLED CHRIST
I'm trusting that God will grant us this opportunity, where we can come together and have those last Seven Trumpets. I like to be led to do those things, so that you will know.
63-1229 THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT
… would like to speak on those Seven Trumpets, have a meeting here for the Seven Trumpets, if the Lord willing
64-0411 SPIRITUAL AMNESIA
I'm thinking about coming back, pretty soon, and putting up a tent and having those seven last Trumpets, the Lord willing.
64-0614 THE ODDBALL
… then it'll be a sign to me that I'm to come back here to Jeffersonville and preach the Seven Trumpets, along July or August, somewhere along in there.
64-0705 THE MASTERPIECE
If it be the will of God, then, I want to speak on the Seven Trumpets. And that'll be about a eight-day service, and we won't be here at the tabernacle, perhaps. We try to get an auditorium here.
Finally, brother Branham held a meeting on the Feast of the Trumpets, the fifth Jewish festival held on the first day of the seventh month. This is the Jewish new year.
LEVITICUS 23:24
Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation.
64-0719 THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS
But I want to teach, this morning, on the feast of the seven trumpets. Which, this month is the feast of the seven trumpets, and which is the seventh month, which would be July the 15th, was beginning of the Feast of the Trumpets, in the Levitical laws.
[July is our Gentile 7th month. The Jewish 7th month Tishrei tends to fall in September].
… Now, I have been anticipating for some time to speak on the subject of the Seven Trumpets in the Book of Revelations. And now we are going to review this, just a moment,
to bring out the real cause of me not speaking this time, because the Holy Spirit would not let me speak at this time on these things.
…the Holy Spirit opened up this, to show me the reason it not profitable even for the Church at this time,
'cause it has nothing to do with the Church, at all.
… Now, the reason that these Seven Trumpets does not apply to this Church and this age, is because it's to Israel only. It's the calling, of the gathering of the people. And now there's only one significance in here that I want you to get to, in a few minutes,
is where you'll see why this doesn't apply to this age that we're living in; the Seven Trumpets.
[The Trumpets have nothing to do with the church, they are to call the Jews back to Israel]
… Don't you see why them Trumpets means nothing to us? They all sounded under our Sixth Seal.
You see now why the Holy Spirit wouldn't let me speak it? And the Heavenly Father knows, with this Bible before me, that's the Truth. Didn't know it till yesterday, day before yesterday; in my room there where He revealed it, come to me and spoke to me.
The Trumpets happen in the 3.5 years of great Tribulation after the Bride has been called up to Heaven.
But Hitler's Holocaust was also a preview of the persecution that is represented by the Trumpets.
64-0719M THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS
Can't you see
how that Trumpet, of persecution under Hitler and them, blasted?
And the Jews was forced to come together, to fulfill the Scriptures.
But to understand the Seven Seals better, the Bride needs some revelation of great Tribulation events. However, the Bride will not be in great Tribulation.
So how can God give us, in advance, some idea of what great Tribulation will be like?
God allowed a preview of great Tribulation, an amateur Tribulation or Holocaust, to fall on the Jews who are natural Israel, during the Second World War.
That way the Bride, who are spiritual Israel, could witness the savagery that fell on natural Israel.
The natural dictators like Hitler and Stalin could only unleash these dictatorial demons on natural Israel.
But once the war was over in 1945, these dictatorial demons could pretend to be religious and enter the World Council of Churches in 1948. Since then, they have infiltrated the churches to destroy people’s faith in the King James Version of the Bible, which is no longer regarded as being the Absolute.
Then these spirits have elevated pastors until they are the head of each church and act as mini-dictators.
Only Jesus is the Head of the church.
EPHESIANS 5:23 For the husband is the head of the wife, even as
Christ is the head of the church:
Pagan Romans worshiped various trinities. Thus these spirits further established the nameless Triune God by saying, “In the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Ghost” but never being able to tell us what that name is.
Now, these wrong spirits are subtly calling William Branham’s quotes The Absolute and claiming that he is Infallible as the Voice of God.
61-1119 PERFECT STRENGTH BY PERFECT WEAKNESS
Oh, my, talk about the lid off of the kettle:
demons going around, powers of the devil under the name of Christianity, teaching for doctrine the commandments of men,
theological seminary doctrines,
leaving the Bible alone.
Hallelujah. Who's able to... Who's strong enough, who's wise enough? Who's powerful enough to tame this legion stripping the clothes off of our women in the name of preachers, Methodist, Baptist, and even Pentecostal? Painting their faces like Jezebel, and bobbing their hair, and wearing pants just like men, our preachers, not enough get up about them to tell them about it: devil-possessed... It was the legion that tore his clothes off of him. Who is this roaring devil?
“Leaving the Bible alone” leads to “teaching for doctrine the commandments of men”.
When church-goers are fooled into not checking their beliefs with Scripture, then they cannot help but accept man-made ideas as their beliefs.
“Demons going around”. This is the source of all unscriptural beliefs.
64-0726 RECOGNIZING YOUR DAY AND ITS MESSAGE
And we find out then, that, Israel,
the Seven Trumpets pertained only to Israel.
… And He revealed to me that them Seven Trumpets sounded under the Sixth Seal, and I've done preached it, supernaturally. See, it's the hand of God, the whole thing.
It pertains to Israel, and we picked it up under the Sixth Seal;
you all who have that, how
the persecution of the Jews.
… The Trumpets, under... all of them was sounded under the Sixth Seal. And we picked it up last Sunday, under the Feast of the Trumpets, if you all want to get it. What was it to do?
To rush the Jews, from all parts of the world, back into their homeland. It must be there.
… The Seven Trumpets sounded in the Sixth Seal.
The anti-Jewish hatreds that rose up during the last century, especially during the Second World War, were a preview of the Sixth Seal, where two-thirds of the Jews will be killed in great Tribulation.
ZECHARIAH 13:8 And it shall come to pass, that in all the land, saith the LORD,
two parts therein shall be cut off and die;
but the third shall be left therein.
This relentless killing of Jews has forced many Jews to flee to Israel for safety. These persecutions were thus also a preview of the seven Trumpets that force the Jews back to Israel.
65-0718 TRYING TO DO GOD A SERVICE WITHOUT BEING THE WILL OF GOD
I was coming back, rather, to here, to try to have about a ten-day meeting,
to speak on the subject of
The Seven Last Vials. For, in between those Vials is the Trumpets.
And I was telling you in the... when I was going to preach on the Seven Trumpets, that I would bring them in with the Vials and the Plagues.
Both the 7 Trumpets and the 7 Vials happen in the 3.5 years of great Tribulation.
These supernatural events alternate as “in-between the Vials” that are poured out, the Trumpets will also be blown. So, the actual Trumpets are mixed up with the actual Vials when they happen in the 3.5 years of great Tribulation.
65-0801M THE GOD OF THIS EVIL AGE
Now, in doing this, I have come here for the purpose of
teaching the last Vials, last Seven Vials, and the last Seven Trumpets, and the last Seven Thunders,
of the Book of Revelation, tying them together in this hour that we're now living; to follow the opening of the Seven Seals, the Seven Church Ages.
Four months before he died and he wanted to teach the 7 Vials and the 7 Trumpets and the 7 Thunders.
So obviously, brother Branham had not taught these subjects before.
Three mystery topics that we do not know much about
64-0830 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.4
Have the seven thunders which equals seven mysteries already been revealed? Were they revealed in the seven Seals, but are yet not known to us as the thunders yet?
No, they were revealed in the seven Seals; that's what the thunders was about.
He said the Thunders were revealed in the Seals.
“What the Thunders was about”.
In other words, their function or purpose in God’s plan.
What they have to do: Give rapturing faith to the Bride. Give supernatural power to the two Jewish prophets. Reveal the new name of Jesus. Reveal when the Lord is coming.
But what was not revealed is what they actually utter, their content or what they will say. That remains a top-secret that is not to be known.
We do not know the new name.
We do not know when Jesus is coming.
We cannot be raptured in these bodies, so we cannot yet have rapturing faith.
The Thunders will show us how to get our new bodies because only then can we get rapturing faith.
The two prophets do not yet have the power to interrupt nature.
So, it has been revealed to us what the seven Thunders will do, but so far, none of that has yet been done.
When it will happen, and how it will happen, remains a complete mystery.
65-0822 A THINKING MAN'S FILTER
And I'm anxiously waiting for the hour to where we can all congregate in one place and preach on those
Seven Plagues, and Seven Vials, and the Trumpets, and so forth.
They all happen right in a cluster. That's the reason it'll take us about a week, ten days or more, to get through it in one single meeting, if we can. Think it's very sufficient.
“And so forth” means that there is something else involved with the 7 Vials and the 7 Trumpets. This is an obvious reference to the 7 Thunders.
1965 INTRODUCTION THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST - CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.1
Though this volume will concern itself with various major doctrines (such as the Godhead, Water Baptism, etc.) found in Revelation, chapters One through Three, its main theme is the setting forth of a detailed study of the Seven Church Ages. This is necessary in order to study and understand the rest of the Revelation,
for out of the Ages come the Seals, and out of the Seals come the Trumpets, and out of the Trumpets come the Vials. Like the first burst of a Roman candle,
the Church Ages come forth with a mighty initial illumination, without which there could be no further light. But once the brilliance of the Seven Church Ages is given by Divine revelation, light upon light follows, until the whole of the Revelation opens wide before our wondering eyes; and we, edified and purified by its Spirit, are made ready for His glorious appearing, even our Lord and Saviour, the One True God, Jesus Christ.
1965 LAODICEAN CHURCH AGE - CHURCH AGE BOOK CPT.9
Now this messenger of Malachi 4 and Revelation 10:7 is going to do two things. One: According to Malachi 4 he will turn the hearts of the children to the fathers. Two:
He will reveal the mysteries of the seven thunders in Revelation 10 which are the revelations contained in the seven seals.
It will be these Divinely revealed 'mystery-truths' that literally turn the hearts of the children to the Pentecostal fathers. Exactly so.
… What was in those thunders no one knows. But we need to know.
The revelation of the seven Thunders is contained in the Seven Seals.
Look up all the quotes in the Seven Seals that concern the seven Thunders and you will find that his revelation of the seven Thunders is confined to what they do. What their function is.
He never reveals what they say, what their content is.
Thus, brother Branham only revealed what the seven Thunders will do, but not what they said.
And so far, they have not yet uttered nor have they actually done those things.
65-0822 CHRIST IS REVEALED IN HIS OWN WORD
But we've got one of the most dreadful times to go through, that ever laid before human beings.
And I'm just waiting for the hour, and when we can get... everybody can get a chance where you get off from work and spend a few days, and we can get set up somewhere where I can speak on
those Plagues and things that's to fall in the last days; and throw about two or three weeks together,
and bring that together, if the Lord lets me live to do it and will inspire me to do so,
see how those things will be dropped in, and those Thunders.
Then you'll find out what that man and them people have been dreaming about, and all these things there, it'll come to pass; see, you'll notice what them revealed,
that great Thunder a coming forth out of the skies.
Now, of course, the whole bunch of you, you know that I know what that means, you see. And,
but let's just wait till the time comes,
you see, for it to be, see, now, and it'll be more in season.
The 7 Plagues or Vials will be a most dreadful time.
“Those Plagues and things”. The “things” must refer to the Trumpets as he often links the Vials with the Trumpets, as they alternate during the Tribulation.
“The most dreadful times” are linked to the 7 Vials and the 7 Thunders.
The 7 Thunders will utter at a bad time for humanity.
Thus the seven Thunders will be amidst a series of events that will stagger us.
63-0318 THE FIRST SEAL
But think, now he wrote this, 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. 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. But I'll reveal it in that day when it has need to done."
At the time of the Thunders, the world will be in turmoil.
64-0209 COUNTDOWN
One of these mornings,
the whole universe will be screaming, and wailing and gnashing of teeth, when they see they've missed it.
When the great Eagle, powered by the Holy Ghost and Fire, begins to spread Her wings, the astronauts will take off into the sky, to go to meet the Bridegroom;
when the Bride takes off, in the astronaut power of God Almighty
There is also going to be a single great Thunder.
He never revealed what he knew about it.
REVELATION 6:1 And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and
I heard, as it were the noise of thunder,
one of the four beasts saying, Come and see.
Some kind of wake-up call awaits us in the future.
Maybe the 2020 coronavirus was a preview of the future wake-up call.
Your church was shut down to show how displeased God was with it.
Social distancing. Do not trust a pastor as head of the church.
Only the Bible is the Absolute.
Pontius Pilate washed his hands after saying, "What is truth?" and rejecting Jesus.
By regarding quotes, some of which are obviously wrong, as the Absolute means that message-people do not know what the truth is either. They also have rejected the Bible as the Absolute. Now they have to wash their hands to combat the virus continuously.
But are we listening?
65-0822 CHRIST IS REVEALED IN HIS OWN WORD
And last week's tapes, I think, will reveal to you
the great hideous things that we're going to speak on
one of these days when we can get a place sufficient, of the opening of those last plagues to be poured out upon the earth, those Vials, rather,
pouring out of the Vials, and the Seven Thunders, and those hideous sights that's coming upon the earth.
Man now, and people today, are in such a neurotic condition; the whole world!
The 7 Vials are in great Tribulation and will produce hideous sights.
The seven Thunders prepare the Bride to go up and the Jewish prophets to go into great Tribulation. They will utter in very turbulent and horrible times.
65-0815 AND KNOWETH IT NOT
And He said
there will be hideous sights upon the earth.
"Locusts with hair like women," long hair, to haunt them women that cut their hair. "Teeth like lion; stingers in their tails, like scorpions; they would torment men, months."
Just wait till we get in to opening them Plagues and Seals, and them Seven Thunders,
watch what takes place. Oh, brother, you better get to Goshen while there's time to get to Goshen. Don't pay any attention to this outside.
The 7 Thunders will produce hideous sights.
Locusts with long hair are part of the fifth Trumpet.
The seven Thunders utter as the church ages end, and great Tribulation starts.
Thus, the seven Thunders prepare the way for the seven Trumpets to the Jews and the seven Vials to punish the world.
The 7 Trumpets and the Feast of the Trumpets are different.
64-0830 QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.3
… 'cause I didn't preach the Seven Trumpets, I preached the Feast of the Trumpets.
You understood about that?
There is a difference between the Feast of the Trumpets and the Seven Trumpets of Revelation Chapters 8 and 9.
The Feast of the Trumpets as a Jewish festival puts the focus on two Jewish prophets who stand in Israel and sound two trumpets (symbolizing their preaching and supernatural power) to call an assembly of the Jews in Israel.
They are to call all the Jews back to Israel.
MATTHEW 24:29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened,…
“The tribulation of those days” is the pre-Tribulation of Eichmann and Hitler, known as the Holocaust.
The death camps in World War 2 that killed 6 million Jews.
“The sun shall be darkened”. The Bible is corrupted and no longer regarded as the Absolute. Jesus is driven out of the church as the Word of God which the churches say is no longer infallible. The Pope and William Branham are considered to be infallible as their quotes replace Scripture. Thus a Catholic spirit enters certain message churches.
MATTHEW 24:31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.
This is great Tribulation time. God sends two “angels” or messengers, Moses and Elijah.
The Gospel “trumpet”.
Moses and Elijah bring the Jews back to believing in Jesus and the New Testament.
The Jews are gathered in Israel so that God can select His elect, the 144000, who are “born again from Heaven” by the power of the Holy Ghost. Heaven-born subjects who are elected to serve God.
LEVITICUS 23:24 Speak unto the children of Israel, saying, In the seventh month, in the first day of the month, shall ye have a sabbath, a memorial of blowing of trumpets, an holy convocation.
“Trumpets”. Plural.
Two prophets, Moses and Elijah have a ministry inside Israel.
They summon the Jews back to Israel.
The seven Trumpets however are supernatural events that occur outside Israel that will force the stubborn Jews to leave the countries where they are making a lot of money and return to Israel.
A huge problem today is that people are falling away from the need to get saved.
Church-goers no longer feel that they need to genuinely and sincerely repent of their sins. People are losing the desire to ask Jesus into their hearts so that He can fully control their lives. Our modern age does not want to become totally submitted to the will of God as they no longer believe that the King James Bible is the infallible Word of God. But each one of us has to make these decisions. The decision is between each person and the Lord Jesus. It has nothing to do with any church.
If you genuinely receive forgiveness of your sins from Jesus, then no man could ever take the place of Jesus in your heart. Because no man could ever forgive your sins.
