THE REVELATION OF THE SECOND SEAL

"And when he had opened the second seal, I heard the second beast say, Come and see. And there went out another horse that was red: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth, and that they should kill one another: and there was given unto him a great sword." (Revelation 6:3-4).

And what took place in 1963 was one of the greatest event that took place in human history, and that was the opening of the seals. If you are a stranger here we will like to share that with you.

Revelation, 5th chapter says that the book was closed and in the 10th chapter it said it was opened. In Daniel 12 it said that the mysteries of God and the vision of Daniel were shut up until the end time. Now this is the end time that we are now living in. Those mysteries were revealed in 1963. Now it happened that when the seals were opened it was an announcement to the world of the second coming of Jesus Christ fulfilling Matthew 25:6 - "Behold the bridegroom cometh go ye out to meet him". There was a forerunner who made the announcement. He was anointed by the spirit of Elijah. His name was William Branham, a hated name, a despised name and the people that follow that message are a despised people, but we are a privileged people. And that is why the Devil hates us and tagged the wrong name upon us.

So now in 1963, the book was opened, and then the book that was closed in the 5th chapter, in the 10th chapter, it was found in the hand of an angel. It set in order the fulfilment of many Scriptures.

The opening of the seals set in order the fulfilment of many Scriptures, Revelations and prophecies. Now certain things that were declared at the seals are yet in their fulfilment; the rapture, the tribulation. You notice that such things did not happen as yet. It set in order their fulfilment. The Jews are not yet saved. It set in order the fulfilment of Revelation 10:1. It set in order that, and many other Scriptures. Likewise there is a Scripture laying there for many years and awaiting its fulfilment, that is concerning the antichrist, the man of sin and that is found in 11Thessalonians 2:1 - 12.

"Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, and by our gathering together unto him, That ye be not soon shaken in mind, or be troubled, neither by spirit, nor by word, nor by letter as from us, as that the day of Christ is at hand. Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition; Who opposeth and exalteth himself above all that is called God, or that is worshipped; so that he as God sitteth in the temple of God, shewing himself that he is God. Remember ye not, that, when I was yet with you, I told you these things? And now ye know what withholdeth that he might be revealed in his time. For the mystery of iniquity doth already work: only he who now letteth will let, until he be taken out of the way. And then shall that Wicked be revealed, whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth, and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming: Even him, whose coming is after the working of Satan with all power and signs and lying wonders, And with all deceivableness of unrighteousness in them that perish; because they received not the love of the truth, that they might be saved."

Everybody in the world today is afraid of the antichrist. They made him all kinds of things. When you talk about the antichrist people tremble. Books on the antichrist and the mark of the beast are number one sellers throughout the world today. You want to make some money, put your pen to paper, but who wants the truth? People pay big money to hear a lie. The truth is being given out free and people don't want it. All the truth is in the seven seals book since it was printed. Who wants that? People would rather believe a lie.

Now the fulfilment of this scripture 11Thessalonians 2: 1 - 12. We always have a perverter of the message you know? Perverters of the Word. We always have people who think they are brighter than Paul; and somebody back in that time thought that they were brighter than the messenger, and wrote a letter and said that Paul said such and such, signed his name and sent it down there and said, "The time of the coming of the Lord is at hand right now." Maybe they wanted the people's money, and said, "Sell your houses and give me the money."

So now, Brother Paul heard of that, he said, "Let no man deceive you by any means: for that day shall not come, except there come a falling away first, and that man of sin be revealed, the son of perdition." (2 Thessalonians 2: 3).

He set boundary marks, he set up pillars for the Christian church to defeat that enemy, so that anybody who will rise with that doctrine, they said, "Paul said that the man of sin must be revealed first." And if that man of sin is not revealed then Christ cannot come. He said, "Brethren, let me tell you the truth, that day of the coming of the Lord shall not come until there first come a falling away and the man of sin be revealed." And the man of sin was hiding in a mystery of iniquity. So he said, "The mystery of iniquity doth already work." So the man of sin was hiding in a mystery of lawlessness and wickedness. Yes, Satan hiding himself. But before the coming of the Lord something was to happen upon the face of the earth that will make him known, revealed, make him known. Yes, now let me put this in here.

The man of sin, Judas, was hiding in a mystery. It was a mystery to all the apostles, but the day did come when the Lord revealed him. How did he reveal him? By giving him a sop. They sat around the table and he said; "I say unto you, one of you will betray me." Nobody knew the man of sin. Then Peter said, "Is it I?" the next one said, "Is it I?" Jesus said, "It is the man to whom I give the sop." He dipped it in the dish and he gave it, and the Bible said, "And Satan entered into the heart of Judas Iscariot, Simon's son to betray the Lord and he went out and done what he done." Now do you see the picture? Man of sin must be revealed before the coming of the Lord.

When the sealed Book was opened, one of the items on the sealed book was to make known the son of perdition, man of sin, Judas Iscariot, the antichrist. It was so great and intense in the revealing of the man of sin that when the seals were opened the Lord never joked around in exposing the man of sin. He exposed him for two thousand years at once. He exposed him in history and in the future to come. This portion here is right now in its making and will be fulfilled in its proper sense at the time of the rapture and a little after that. So there is a thorough exposition that the Lord gives to the antichrist.

You have a witness Brothers and Sisters. I am saying to you that a great event took place on earth. Yes, our Lord, the lamb, Jesus Christ, opened the seals before his coming. When we see the seals opened we know the coming of the Lord is right here because it got to work together. Man of sin must be revealed and then the Lord is coming. Is that the order of the Scripture? Well that is why you have here man of sin.

The seventh seal holds the coming of the Lord. If you catch that you'll dance. Brother Paul said, first the man of sin must be revealed and then the coming of the Lord. The seal book started opening up: the first seal, second seal, third seal, fourth seal: man of sin. The seventh seal holds the coming of the Lord. So therefore you are looking here at 11Thessalonians in symbol form right there. If you read properly you will see it is in different stages. One place said it is before the coming of the Lord. As you read a little lower down you will see the coming of the Lord, you see it is in different stages. Yes, because you have to deal with two thousand years. So then you will get the Scriptures running right.

So we dealt with the seals being opened. What we are doing here, we are rehearsing what came from the seals. Revelation is a book of symbols. You have a dragon, horse, beast, lion, calf, bow and all of these things are symbols and they have the book closed. So we were reading a closed book all the time, and that is why we don't understand the Bible. In 1963 the Lamb came, and when he came by, He told us what was white horse; but not the church. He told a man what was the horse and what was this and what was that. That man was William Branham. He was on the same spot when the seals were opened. It was not done in a corner. We have facts of it. I don't have time to background every night. We'll be here all night. But the sealed book was opened.

That sealed book was opened in order to reveal the antichrist and next, to reveal Christ. Now let me put it in this perspective that you can capitalize upon it. The sealed book being opened, revealed two great mysteries. The mystery of iniquity and the mystery of godliness. It revealed the man of sin and son of man. Glory to God! Oh Brothers and Sisters, only if you can comprehend these things in the right way. Man of sin was the white horse, the red horse, the black horse, and the pale horse. So the Lord took care of man of sin first. A little while after, He took care of son of man. He took care of man of sin first; exposing the antichrist and showing up who he is. That was in order to bring us out of organization and bring us out from under the grip of the antichrist. That's the reason He exposed the antichrist. So now all these symbols have the revelation closed up.

Now the book will be opened, and it was opened when the Lord God whispered to his prophet what white horse meant. That is the opening of the book. When we read in the Bible where it said, "Behold a white horse", we never knew what it was. The Holy Spirit whispered to William Branham, a man anointed by the spirit of Elijah, a humble prophet of God. He said, "Red horse means so and so, and rider means such and such."

This rider here is the antichrist spirit. The white horse is the Catholic Church; the first organization, and people make up the organization. This fellow had a bow, but he had no arrow. We proved that he was antichrist. The only way that he received a crown was because the antichrist went in a man. The Antichrist now got a head to put on a crown. Then this man claimed to be the head of Christianity. He said, I am sitting in the place of the Son of God. "I am vicar of heaven, earth and purgatory." So he impersonated Jesus Christ. He still has the crown in the Vatican.

Now we are not against Catholic people, and if there might be a Catholic priest here, full respect will be given to you, because the Lord saved many Catholic priests. I had a Catholic priest come right on this ground and knelt down and said, "Pray for me." So it does not matter what religion you belong to, the fact is that if you are a child of God, you will recognise truth. We belonged to the same type of organizations. We repented and we were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. We are on our way to the rapture.

This white horse rider did not have a crown, but a crown was given unto him. This fellow out here in this ministry of antichrist was a slimy fellow. Slimy hypocrite. He was working underneath and undercover. He was hugging kissing and saying, "I am a believer of Paul's message. Praise the Lord." Then he pretended to catch certain revelations that Paul did not have.

The man of sin was Judas. When he died his spirit came back upon the children of the wicked one. When Jesus died he ascended into glory and his spirit came back upon the Christian church. So now there are two spirits that have been working from the early ages and they were the Spirit of Christ, coming right down, and the spirit of Judas Iscariot. Now the spirit of Judas Iscariot is the Devil's spirit. It is called the antichrist, this spirit has a name but he doesn't want to call his name. That is why there is no name here. He doesn't want to say that he is Judas. No! No! No! He is hiding that fact, that he is Judas. Later on the Lord gave him a name and he called him death. The seals brought out that he is the son of perdition, Judas Iscariot. Jesus said that Judas was the son of perdition.

"While I was with them in the world, I kept them in thy name: those that thou gavest me I have kept, and none of them is lost, but the son of perdition; that the scripture might be fulfilled." (John 17:12).

Now this was the son of perdition but he is in a different man. The same spirit in a different man. The spirit of Judas is in all popes. Pope Innocent and a fellow called Pope Pious. Imagine that, Pope Pious and Pope Innocent and they are the men who killed more Christians than anybody else. Just the other day Pope John Paul repented for all the murders that the Catholic church committed. 68 million martyrs, plus many more millions! You are going to hear about it, on this second seal. There is no forgiveness for the Catholic Church. They are cursed and damned to go through the tribulation. Except individuals in the Catholic Church who are God's children. God loves them and He will take them out.

The white horse is the antichrist and he is a slippery fellow. He has a mealy-mouth; he is a fellow that pretends to believe the message when he is in that kind of ministry. This second horse you are going to see a different picture. When the white horse rider thinks that he grabs you, then he makes himself known; so he works undercover, underneath. What is he working underneath to do? To kill you with false doctrine. So now since this Judas spirit was inside of this pope there was a gospel according to Judas Iscariot. He did not write the gospel the same time as Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. He wrote it after Nicene Council 325A.D.

Now that gospel of Judas Iscariot travelled down through all the churches up to today and last night we proved that. It travelled down, so there is a gospel according to Judas Iscariot. So you have to decide which one you are following. You could be following the gospel according to Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John or according to Judas Iscariot. Preacher you are saying a tremendous thing; that is a terrible thing. "And I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel." (Galatians 1:1-6).

This gospel is so close that you can't make it out. One was Matthew and one was Judas. Brother Paul seen that coming with them eagle's eyes. He said, "I am seeing two gospels here." He said, "If you don't have a divine revelation, you couldn't make it out. You cannot even call it another because it is so white and nice, so clean and good. It is just one death seed, put into it."

When the Devil got the crown there, believe it or not, visitors, with all respect to you, the Devil, Judas spirit went down into the pope and they put a crown on the pope's head. The crown is still in the Vatican and on that crown is the mark of the beast (Vicarius Filii Dei). When you check it in Roman numerals it is 666. That is not the only description of the antichrist. There are many others to tell you where to find the antichrist. We have no doubt on them. The seals brought out that and we believe the Lamb. If the Lamb says that horse rider is the pope, he's an antichrist, we believe the Lamb. This will prove whether you believe Jesus or not. But we believe Jesus.

The Lamb broke the seal and handed it down to a man. That is why we mention William Branham's name, not that we worship him. We worship the Lamb. But we thank God for William Branham who got the revelation from the Lamb.

The Roman Empire, which ruled the world for a long time, was destroyed by war. Just previous to that the Roman Empire, which ruled the world for a long time, was destroyed by war. This brings to light and fulfilment the Scripture, Revelation 13.

"And I saw one of his heads as it were wounded to death…" (That's the Roman Empire; one of his head. He had seven heads, which were seven kings), "…and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast." (Revelation 13:3).

Now when this crown went upon the pope's head, Rome got back their crown. So the deadly wound was healed. And the healing of the wound was the revival of the old Roman Empire. So now it changed from pagan Rome to papal Rome. In other words, Rome ruling by popes where as before they used to be ruled by kings. They still have popes on the throne. He is in Rome, in the Vatican.

After 325AD it was only popes; showing you that the deadly wound was healed. Now see the kind of power he has since the deadly wound was healed.

"…and his deadly wound was healed: and all the world wondered after the beast." (He gained so much power that the whole world admires him). "…And they worshipped the dragon which gave power unto the beast." (Revelation 13: 3-4). (The beast here representing the Roman Empire). Revelation 12:9, 20:2, the dragon is "that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan." And this Devil gave power to the pope and to Rome, "…saying, Who is like unto the beast? who is able to make war with him?" In other words, the Catholic church that was set up in 325A.D., spread her wings and she dominated the entire world. She dominated kings and monarchs, and who was able to make war with her. Nobody was able to make war with the pope. Over here the same power of Rome was represented in a beast.

Here we come to our second seal; Revelation 6:3. We have a red horse and a rider. You will notice that a calf came forward and gave an announcement. He said, "Come and see the antichrist." That is the song that we are singing: "Come and see." We notice that the rider was given power; he did not have that power. His deadly wound was healed. He was given this power and the power that he was given was to take peace from the earth. Under no condition that could be Christ. Because Christ is the prince of peace. So this fellow has power to take peace from the earth and another thing is that he would incite the people to kill one another. Christ doesn't do that. It shows that he is Satan the Devil. Yes, look at the scamp; a great sword was given to him. We read that in the Bible for many years. We did not know what was red horse and rider. The lamb had to open the seals and tell us what "Red horse" is and what "The sword" is. When this fellow got a crown and power, he jumped off from the white horse and he threw down his bow. He became a king and he jumped on his red horse and picked up a sword. Now he was going to take peace from the earth and incite the people to kill one another. You say who is that? The stinking pope! The stinking Catholic Church! Yes Sir! I make no apologies. Stinking Rome! Martyred our Brothers and Sisters. This is so important children.

When that power came out there riding on a red horse (Glory to God!) this is the same stinker. They call him, "Holiness." Its worth repeating. He is a dirty adulterer, fornicator, money Satan, liar, thief and Judas Iscariot. That's who is he. That is who that Devil is. He works very smoothly and the smoothest fellow is a Catholic priest. He will outshine everyone. They don't even mash an ant. But they are the biggest adulterers, the biggest homosexuals, and the biggest fornicators, perverting the little girls in the church, and living with men's wives. That is the truth. Talking about smooth, the pope is a smooth man. You see how he lifts his hand. 'P - e - a - c - e.' "He is so humble", he kisses the ground. Smooth fellow. But he waits until he gets you in his grip, and then he shows his colors. This fellow worked like a slimy hypocrite all the time, but when he got the crown and he had power, he showed the world who he really was. So he jumped on a red horse and a sword was given to him. He was going to take peace from the earth and use men to kill one another. He alone did not have power.

God let go a cherubim at that time when he mounted his red horse. The Lord said, "Cherubim take him." Glory to God! The cherubim flew and he was amongst the saints of God. He was called the calf and he sent forth a certain anointing of martyrdom, which made the saints of God willing to die for the gospel of Jesus Christ. He made them willing to lay down their lives. There is a certain anointing that has got to come upon you. To stand for this word of God a certain anointing got to come upon you. When I preach against the antichrist and against false doctrine you notice something rise up in you. You just feel to rip and tear and stand in the defence of the word. That is not you, that is an anointing that comes upon you. That's the anointing of the age. If you don't have a man with that kind of anointing you will crouch down under false doctrine; but if you have a man to stand up with heroism in his heart, standing with faith then that anointing will come upon you. You cannot be more spiritual than your pastor. That anointing will fall upon you. Woe be unto you if you have a Devil pastor that's committing adultery and living in fornication, that anointing will fall on you.

So this ministry could make you strong. You got to have a man that stands up for the word of God; otherwise you'll not mature into anything. So now the Lord let go the calf. It was a cherubim. So he let go that cherubim and it anointed them saints. Now they had the spirit of an ox.

Why was this represented in a calf, an ox? It is very simple. In the Old Testament the calf, the ox was a sacrificial animal that was willing to give his life as a sacrifice. When this anointing fell upon the saints they became sacrifices. They gave their bodies as living sacrifices unto the Lord, which is a reasonable sacrifice. It came into their minds that it is a reasonable sacrifice. The anointing fell upon them. Little children, babies, young virgins, old women, and old men they just walked up and held the stake. They started kissing the stake. It was not their human strength. It was the anointing that fell upon them in that time. Great men and women; our brothers and sisters.

The Lord let go the calf behind the horse. The Spirit anointed the saints for martyrdom. While this Spirit was anointing the saints there, he was opening up their discernment. That is why it says, "Come and see." It was the anointing of the cherubim opening up the eyes of the saints of God to see this pope as the Devil. To see his teaching as the Devil's. To see him as the man of sin, the antichrist. They were under a certain anointing and they came before the pope many times for sacrifice, for martyrdom.

They asked, "What do you think of the 'great holiness', the pope." They said, "He is antichrist." "Do you repent and acknowledge him as the head of Christianity?" "He is antichrist". "Do you know the consequences of blaspheming the pope?" "Yes I do." "What are the consequences?" "Death!" "I gladly embrace death for my Lord, but I would not bow down to the pope and the Catholic Church." They loosed the lions and the bears and killed them, but they are in glory tonight. Amen.

You must fall under a certain spirit otherwise you will never stand up. The calf announced to "come and see". God does not leave his church alone. There is a certain spirit that anoints us today, it's the eagles anointing. The eagles' anointing is anointing the whole congregation; it is getting us ready to fly away.

The Lamb told the secret to William Branham. The red horse speaks of bloodshed, martyrdom of the saints by the Catholic church; that is why the horse is red. It was bloodshed and martyrdom. This thing is so true. How on earth could we doubt that? You never knew in all the days of your life what is revealed in the seals. We could find it in history. It is not just somebody who hates the Catholic Church that made up such stories; it is in their own history book called, the "Roman Martyrology" where they recorded these deaths.

So now what is the red horse? The seal is revealing that Satan united the power of church and state. He formed the Catholic Church, and state church were now united, and power was given unto him, at that time, to take peace from the earth, because he now ruled the earth. Do you see how revealing the seal is? Yes, power was given unto him to take peace from the earth and he joined state and church together. At that time he dropped his bow and came out openly and the Bible said, "A sword was given unto him." He passed a law.

Now watch the slimy hypocrite, when a fellow thinks that he gains some power over you he comes out openly and let you know that he is your enemy. The white horse was pretending to be a friend. The red horse will tell you, "I am your enemy." This is how the Devil works. It is the system of Satan. The system of Satan is to pretend to be your friend, firstly, and secondly, to declare himself as your enemy, and then wage open war against you. That is the strategy of the Devil.

So Satan united his power, jumped off his white horse, jumped on a red horse, dropped his bow and picked up a sword. Power was given unto him to make war and to take peace from the earth. Rome ruled the whole world, and a law was made, "Be a Catholic or die." All other religions were outlawed. It was a crime to say that you belonged to another religion. That is the deed of the Catholic Church. Now my Brothers, millions of Christians were going to die for breaking that law. He caused them to kill one another. All who came under the influence of the pope and came under the influence of the antichrist spirit were anointed to hate and kill the Christians who stood true to the gospel of Jesus Christ. There we are. So now, on this red horse Judas got nasty and he showed his colors. When you expose that Judas' spirit, he gets nasty.

Notice that when Jesus exposed Judas he got nasty. He went secretly and sold him for thirty pieces of silver and then caused his death. When you expose Judas he gets nasty. So now, this Judas spirit was on this fellow here and he was exposed therefore he got nasty. The Catholic Church is a nasty church. Their doctrine is a nasty doctrine and these doctrines have never changed in all the centuries. Be a Catholic of die. He caused them to kill one another.

The pope's spirit fell upon these members of the church called the nicolaitanes. He gave them the license to kill the Christians. Hunt them down and kill them. Why were those saints killed? That's a good question. He was killing out the Christian saints for not believing the gospel according to Judas. The gospel according to Judas started in the days of Paul and it went into doctrine books by the time of 325AD. Without picking on any religion I want to tell you a little again of Judas doctrine that was drawn up at the Nicene council in 325AD. See if you are following that or the gospel of Jesus. It is a very nice spiritual atmosphere tonight.

The gospel of Judas; the first thing he done is that he preached a trinity, which, there is no Scripture for a trinity. Hear O' Israel your God is one God. John 4:24, "God is a spirit." So now the big debate at the Nicene Council was whether God was one God or three. So now that went down into the doctrine book and that was the gospel of Judas, preaching three gods. You still hear it around. And then they brought up the Trinitarian baptism of baptizing in titles of Father, son and Holy Ghost. This is Judas' doctrine. Jesus' doctrine and Peter's doctrine was baptism in the Name of Jesus Christ, according to Acts 2:38. That is Jesus' doctrine. Paul's doctrine was baptism in Jesus Name. And everybody that were baptized, were baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ.

So Judas' doctrine was the trinity of gods. Judas' doctrine was Trinitarian baptism instead of Jesus Christ's name. Judas' doctrine was that the Pope was the head of Christianity. He made a gospel to suit his own taste. And Judas' gospel said that the pope was sitting in the place of Jesus Christ. And when you approach him you have to kiss his big toe because he is, 'His Holiness', and then you have to call the priest, 'Father'. That is Judas' doctrine. That was the gospel according to Judas. Then they changed the communion to mean something else. They said that the priest has power, that when he prays over the bread, he literally turns it into the body of Jesus Christ. And when he prays over the wine, it is turned into the literal blood of Jesus Christ. Gospel according to Judas Iscariot. Then they said that we have to be a little educated, so they opened up a Bible School. Judas says that, "You must go to school and have your preacher's licenses. You must have your doctorates, in different stages. Starting from pope, come down to cardinal, then to archbishops, bishops, and straight down to acolyte. And all these offices need to have some kind of papers and degrees behind them."

Now the inventors of Bible schools, preacher's licenses' and doctorates are from Judas' spirit. Other churches borrowed them from the Catholic Church. They borrowed water baptism from the Catholic Church. They borrowed a Trinitarian doctrine from the Catholic Church. Some of them borrowed idol worship from the Catholic Church. And then they borrowed the Bible schools. Yes, there is not one Scripture in the Bible where Jesus said to build a Bible school. No!

Bring the Scripture and show me that. I want to ask, "Where Peter James or John got their licenses to preach from?" Not even Judas had one. But now he inspired the pope. Yes. And he told them that they must have licenses. Must have PhDs, LLDs. All this is the gospel of the antichrist. Bible school, licenses, doctorates and above all a doctrine of collecting money.

Now the Catholic Church has the biggest money spirit in the world. They had one hundred and sixty eight billion dollars in solid gold and that was the old price from 1969. Now my friends all these churches borrowed this money spirit from the Catholic Church, every one of them. If they borrowed these things then they borrowed Judas' doctrine. You are either following the gospel according to Judas or you are following the gospel according to Jesus. Now decide what you want. If you baptize in titles of father, son and Holy Ghost, that is Judas' gospel. If you believe in three gods, that is Judas' gospel. If you are sitting under a woman preacher, that is Judas' gospel. If you have your hair bobbed out as a woman, and your pastor say its ok, that is Judas' gospel. Paul's gospel says that her hair was given her for a covering.

"But if a woman have long hair, it is a glory to her: for her hair is given her for a covering." (1Corinthians 11:15).

I am not blaming you if you are a sister here tonight from Open Bible or Pentecostal who has a little short hair. I am not here to condemn your hair. I am here to tell you what is Judas' gospel. And I won't blame you at all. I will blame your pastor. I will blame a weak pulpit. If he had preached the truth to you, then you would have had long hair. Yes, the gospel according to Judas is to climb up on high heel shoes; the gospel according to Judas is to have shorts, as a woman, and also, to wear pants. Such pants are of the Devil, and such shorts are of the Devil. A woman needs to dress modestly. That is Jesus gospel.

"In like manner also, that women adorn themselves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array." (1Timothy 2:9).

"The woman shall not wear that which pertaineth unto a man, neither shall a man put on a woman's garment: for all that do so are abomination unto the LORD thy God." (Deuteronomy 22:5).

It is a shame for a man to have long hair according to 1Corinthians 11:14. Judas' gospel has overspread the earth. Are you sitting under that as a visitor? If you love the Lord and read your Bible, you need to adjust to the gospel of Jesus Christ.

Now whenever anybody follow Judas' gospel they will hate Branham's people because Branham brought back Jesus' gospel and he applied the Scripture, and his doctrine is "baptism in Jesus Christ's name, preaching one God, dressing the women properly, not cutting their hair and not begging for money."

Our preachers don't beg for money, because we have a restoration of the gospel of Jesus Christ. That is why they hate us. So anybody who is following Judas' gospel will hate the people that are following Matthew's gospel, because Judas' gospel is against the gospel of Matthew, Mark, Luke and John. He used to incite problems, and Judas was against Jesus, so he hated Jesus' gospel. So now, if you have Judas' gospel, I tell you now, you are a terrible hater of the people that follow this message.

Tell me why people should condemn us? They condemn us because we don't live in adultery and fornication. Tell me why people condemn these sisters for wearing clothes, not committing fornication, not listening to worldly music. You got to have a Devil inside of you.

Here is a people who are living a life that outshines yours. When you come under Judas' gospel, and you have hate, and you have murder, something has to be wrong with you; and it may not be you, it may be a spirit that your pastor is putting on you. Maybe he told you a lie that "Brother Branham backslid and God had to take him away in an accident." That's a stinking lie of the Devil! Yes! Turn loose of that lie. William Branham was a servant of God.

So why did our brothers and sisters die? They died for water baptism in Jesus Christ's Name. They died because they believed that the head of Christianity is Jesus Christ. They died because they would not confess their sins to the priest but would only confess to Jesus Christ. They died because they would not bow down to idols. They died because they would not recognize the pope. They died because they would not belong to an organization. Jesus never built an organization. The first organization that was ever built was built by the pope, called the Roman Catholic church. Oh yes, that's the truth.

I want to show you the stinking system that Roman system is. My soul hates it. My spirit is against it. Everything that is in me is against that system. I hate it with a vengeance. They preach the Judas' gospel to the world; and you know how do they preach the gospel of Judas to the world? By a sword and by bloodshed. Do you know why we have so many Catholics in the world tonight? They became Catholics because they did not want to die. Just like Islam. Islam is a religion built on blood. And the Catholic Church is built on blood.

So he took a sword in his hand: "Be a Catholic of die." Yes sir! Cowards bowed down. The said, "We will become Catholics." So he gained a lot of members. That is how Judas preaches his gospel. This is coming out in a nice light. This is how Judas preaches his gospel. Anything contrary to the Word of God is Judas' gospel. I don't care what organization you follow, I don't care what bible school it came from, what seminary it came from; anything contrary to the Word of God is Judas' gospel. Anything contrary to this message is Judas' gospel. Anything contrary to Paul's gospel is Judas' gospel. Get it down in the book as it is. "Preacher, I disagree with you." Well that is your right. My sheep hear my voice and a stranger they will not follow.

They built their organization. The Catholic Church is built upon blood. Islam is built upon blood. And during that time 606, a man rose up. He had a chance to receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost and he rejected it. When you reject the presence of God and walk away from it you become like Cain; "And Cain went out from the presence of God." And this man rejected the Holy Ghost and he became a Catholic Priest, and a big man in the Catholic church. He got a revelation, a little later on and signed a document that it was pleasing to God and right to put every person to death that didn't believe like the Catholic Church. You will find that on page 215 of the Seals book. My Brother, his name was Saint Augustine the Hypocrite! Saint? Devil! A hypocrite! Saint Augustine the Hypocrite claimed to have got a revelation that says its right and proper to kill everybody that disagrees with the doctrine of the Catholic Church.


SAINTS AUGUSTINE OF HIPPO - 68 MILLION PROTESTANTS PUT TO DEATH

Quote: 215-5 {289} "I am quoting from the Martyrology: "From the time of Saint Augustine of Hippo until 1586 on the Roman martyrology, the Roman Catholic church put sixty-eight million Protestants to death." Was his sword red? Was he riding a red horse?... They admit sixty-eight million on the martyrology besides all those put to death outside of that. Oh, mercy. During the dark ages there were millions fed to lions and slaughtered in every way, because they wouldn't bow down to that Catholic dogma." (Second seal 63-0319).

Quote: 170 "I can take you to the history. He was the one who sanctioned his word to it, that it was all right to put to death any heretic who would disagree with the dogmas of the Roman church: Saint Augustine of Hippo."(Christianity versus Idolatry 61-1217).

I tell you. He dressed with his white gown, sanctimonious and proclaimed, in the name of the father, son and the Holy Ghost, his "revelation" from God, that it is right and proper to kill everybody who disagrees with the Catholic faith. 'So let it be written, so let it be done." Old Egyptian spirit.

In Smuckers Glorious Reformation you will find an extract from the Roman Martyrology of the Catholic Church that documented sixty eight million martyrs that the Catholic Church put to death who opposed the Catholic Church, from the year 606 to 1586. The popes are murderers. The cardinals are murderers. The priests are murderers. The Catholic Church murdered our brothers and sisters, and they are going to pay for it.

"And I saw the woman drunken with the blood of the saints, and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus: and when I saw her, I wondered with great admiration." (Revelation 17: 6).-

They killed them for the baptism we uphold. They killed them for the truths that we uphold. And I will quote this Scripture. And I saw the woman, (the Catholic Church) drunken with the blood of the saints. (She drank blood until she was drunk) and with the blood of the martyrs of Jesus. That is the Bible I am talking about. Revelation 17:6. I am talking about the Roman Catholic Church drinking the blood of the saints until she was drunk with the blood of the saints. Then you want to be a Catholic, and then you want to call that 'God'? It's antichrist! It's of the Devil! "Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues." (Revelation 18:4).

Sixty eight million martyrs, plus maybe another hundred million that they killed before 606. And hear Revelation 18:24 - And in her was found the blood of prophets and of saints and of all that was slain upon the earth. That crowns it off.

Now he jumped off his white horse and jumped on his red horse. This picture alone should convince you. Blood all over him. The Catholic Church, their hands are red with the blood of the saints. They drank blood until they got drunk. Yes, my Brother. And all these organizations are going back now to the Roman Catholic Church. There will be more bloodshed. And I will tell you something this time friend, according to Revelation 13 and Revelation 12, this time when the Catholic Church moves, which is the revival of the Roman Empire, she will have all organizations on her side.

"And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations… And he had power to give life unto the image of the beast, that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed." (Revelation 13:7,15).

There is going to be another slaughter of Christians, but that would not be you and I. We will fly away from this earth in a translation and in a rapture before that time. But the Bible says that he went to make war with the remnant of the woman's seed. The remnant means the left over.

"And to the woman were given two wings of a great eagle, that she might fly into the wilderness… And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ." (Revelation 12:14-17).

Those of you who want to take chances, find it convenient to stay home, take chances on your dress, you want to take chances on fornication, want to take chances on adultery, bear malice, bear hatred and fight with one another, if you do that too long and the rapture comes and leave you in that condition, you are then called "The remnant of the woman's seed" or "The foolish virgins". The Bible said that he went to make war with the remnant of the woman's seed. He slaughtered them like hogs.


THE REMNANT OF THE WOMAN'S SEED WILL BE HUNTED DOWN LIKE DOGS

Quote: 70-2 " Just a little while and we'll be summoned; then the rapture will come…Then the remnant of the woman's seed that keep the commandments of God (Jews), have the testimony of Jesus Christ (Gentiles), will be hunted down like dogs and shall give their life for their testimony." (Future Home 64-0802).

Brethren, let me beg you; change your purpose. You don't know what that tribulation is. Those tortures are going to be terrible. The things that you are enjoying now friends, you will forget them in a moment. You see, with these modern machines they have, they don't have to cut you with handsaws again. You see this electric power that they have, I tell you, may God grant us grace never to go that way. "Take heed that no man steal your crown." Oh beloved, it is a fearful thing. It is a horrible thing.

Beloved, if you belong to an organization, you may not have known these things. We are not your enemies. All that we are telling you is that you are in the wrong place. Come out and be baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Come out from under a woman preacher, it is wrong. (1Timothy 2:12) If you are cutting your hair, as a woman, stop doing it. It is contrary to 1Corinthians 11:15. If you are living in adultery and you have an adulterous pastor, leave him; he is not even born again. He doesn't have any Holy Spirit

This thing that I am talking about is real. This is the same power that is going to come in the end time. This is the Roman Catholic church, where all these organisations are now going back to be joined into a World Council of Churches, and there is going to be a slaughter again of Christians who uphold the truth. By that time the rapture will go. "And I saw one of its heads as it was wounded to death. And his deadly wound was healed…" (That's the Roman Church.) "…And all the world wondered after the beast. And they worshipped the dragon, which give power to the beast. And they worshipped the beast. Saying who is like unto the beast, who is able to make war with him. And there was given unto him a mouth speaking great things and blasphemies, great things and blasphemie. And power was given unto him to continue forty and two months…" (Revelation 13:3-5). That is right in the end time here.

The same Devil coming down, through two thousand years is given power now to continue for forty two months here in the end time.

"And it was given unto him to make war with the saints…" (Revelation 13:7).

Don't remain here children. If you go through the tribulation, you don't have a chance. He will overcome you. He will kill you.

"And it was given unto him to make war with the saints, and to overcome them: and power was given him over all kindreds, and tongues, and nations." (Revelation 13:7).

The Bible prophesies of a one World Government and a one World Church. This is your Scripture right here. Power was given to Rome over all kindred and all nations and all tongues. The Roman Catholic Church will come to a one World Government and a one World Church.

"And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world." (Revelation 1:8).

There is a clause there friend. Everybody is going to worship this Roman power with this one World Religion and take the mark of the beast, if their names are not written on the Lamb's book of life.

If you could recognize the opening of the seals and the truths that are coming out of this, then your name is on the Lamb's book of life. Then you will recognize the antichrist and come out of it. Shouldn't we thank God? Shouldn't we be thankful to God? [Congregation says, "Amen!"] My name is there. Your name is there. "How do you know that preacher?" My eyes are opened up to the seals. My eyes are opened up to the Word. My eyes are opened up to the antichrist. My eyes are opened up to Christ.

"If any man have an ear, let him hear." (Revelation 1:9). If any man has an ear, let him hear these great mysteries of how there is to rise a pope in the end time. The revival of the Roman Empire. If any man has an ear, he is going to be hearing the seals. If any man has an ear, he is going to hear what the pope is going to do. If any man has an ear, he is going to hear of the one World Government coming. If any man has an ear, he is going to find out that all those religions are going back to Rome from whence they came.

Every one of those Pentecostals, Baptists, Methodists, Protestants churches and every one of them are going back, and the pope is going and rule the entire world. If you have an ear tonight, let me tell you; you should be praying everyday. Some of us don't have anything to pray about. Some of us have nothing to thank God for. What is the matter with some of us? My Brethren, you should be thanking God everyday that your ears heard these things. You let this thing get common? It doesn't get common to me. I appreciate my salvation, and I know you appreciate your salvation.

"If any man have an ear, let him hear. He that leadeth into captivity shall go into captivity: he that killeth with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the patience and the faith of the saints." (Revelation 13:9-10).

In this day and time here children, Judas Iscariot is going to be incarnated. The spirit of Judas Iscariot is going to be incarnated in another pope. This old pope might die in a short time and there is going to arise another pope. But the seals are opened before us today to tell us what is before us. Let us appreciate this. Let us come out of our Laodicean condition. Let us get thankfulness in our hearts, let thanks rise from our hearts. We are not thankful enough. We don't sing enough. We don't praise enough. Let us make a better effort to overcome all these things. We are on our way. Let us lift our hands to him. Thank him from the heart. [Congregation worships in the Spirit.]

Thank you; thank you, thank you Lord. Thank you for the opening of the seals. Worthy art thou O' Lamb. Worthy art thou O' Lamb who has been slain to redeem us from every kindred, nation and tongues and language. O' we praise you. We give you the praise, we give you the honor. Move upon thy people tonight Lord. Loose their tongues that they might praise thee. Loose their lives that they might live for thee. Let them come out from Babylon. Thank you Lord. Thank You.

Thank you for the opening of the book. Thank you for calling us in such a dark and a dreadful hour, when the whole world is about ready to plunge under the leadership of the pope. When all churches are going into the World Council of Churches. You have called us out from our religions, called us out from every walk of life. We give you the praises, the honor, the glory and the thanks. Thank you Lord Jesus. Thank you Lord. We give you the praise, we give you the praises. Bless your people.

[Song: 'Oh That Men Will Praise The Lord'.]
