Date: 31st March 2006
To: The Ministers, Deacons & Saints of Cameroon and all
Africa.
Greetings
from all saints, ministers & elders of Bethel {The House Of God}, the
Caribbean, South America and USA.
Peace be multiplied unto you from God our father and from the Lord Jesus
Christ. Praises, honor and glory be unto God who has called us with a heavenly
calling unto the message of Malachi 4:5-6 to inherit eternal life and save us
from the wrath of God that is prophesied to destroy all sinners from the face
of the earth.
It
is my understanding from fellow-ministers Ruben Sah and Bahoya that your
ministers meetings are to be conducted on April 28th-29th
2006. May your endeavors on this blessed day draw you together, as true
servants of God. May the sheep of his pasture greatly benefit from such unity
is our prayer.
I
was invited to be present with you
and to be a part of your meeting by pastors Ruben Sah and Bahoya. This I
greatly appreciate and would like to have been with you, my fellow-laborers and
ministers of the mysteries of Christ. However, I could not be with you in body,
but my spirit is with you. By permission of our precious Brother Bahoya, my
request was granted to send by literature this my contributions upon the subjects that will be under discussion at
this time.
With
great respect, honor and double honor to the elders that rule well, I give my
humble contribution based upon the Word of God and the message of Malachi
4:5-6.
I
sincerely declare that I do not make this projection as a prophet or 8th
messenger. I have no message of my own but am an ardent believer and preacher
of the message of Malachi 4:5&6.
However,
I presented your questions, for examination, to a group of ministers from USA,
South America, Caribbean, India and Africa. We met after seven days in another
ministers meeting and presented my documentation of answers to your questions.
I invited them to critically examine them, to add any comments, scripture and
quotations of the prophet before my final documentation. This ministers meeting
was also streamed live by video to different ministers abroad. It was recorded
on DVD, MP3 and cassettes and is available to you first and to others after
completion of your ministers meeting in April 2006. I also gave them the
liberty to state any disagreement that they may have to my answers. I wish to
state that certain quotations were added and read from the sacred desk which
are inserted here. Nevertheless, all unanimously agreed with answers given to
the questions that now follow:
CAMEROON QUESTIONS UNDER DISCUSSION
1. 7th seal/7
thunders revealed or not revealed in 1963 by the prophet.
2. The rapture.
3. Is
there another man to come to reveal the 7 thunders since it was not revealed?
God always brings His mysteries through a man.
4. Is
the black sheep that the prophet seen in a vision, a man to come on the scene?
5. Is the 7th
Church age over?
6. Will Jesus
come in 2007 or 2008 according to calculation?
7. How to start a
church?
Some ask questions in support of certain men who claim
that ministry which the prophet indicated by several quotations. Several
throughout Africa, India, USA, the Caribbean and other countries failed to
prove their claims. They have misled many for years. Some were exposed by
insanity and death; others were exposed by the written Word and message of
Malachi 4:5&6.
I
trust that these questions under consideration are for a different purpose. If
they are, then contentment, peace and harmony will prevail, since I am about to
say only what the prophet said upon each subject.
Quote W.M.B.: 284-5 42 That's the way the church ages and Seals
and all the rest of it. And when anybody thinks that he has those seven
thunders, if it don't compare with the rest of the Word, there's something
wrong here. See? It's got to come THUS SAITH THE LORD, for this is the Book;
this is the revelation of Jesus Christ in its entirety. (The Fourth Seal
63-0321).
Question
# 788: ÒWas the 7th seal/7
thunders revealed or not revealed in 1963 by the prophet?Ó
E.O.D.H. Contribution:
WE DONÕT KNOW IT-SEVENTH SEAL
Quote W.M.B.: Everything
runs out in this time, at the end of this Seventh SealÉ Now, how is He going to
do it? That's what we don't know, isn't it? We don't know. It's even the
time for all these things, and the ushering in of the millennium. Notice, the
breaking of this Seal was so great that heaven was hushed by it in silence for
the space of a half hour. (Seals
Book, New Ed. Pages 501 (232) to 502 (238)).
SEVENTH SEAL, NONE OF US KNOWS, TELL YOU
MY REVELATION
Quote: 557 (2)ÉWhy? What is it?
557 (3) Now, none of us know;
but I'm going to tell you my revelation of itÉ (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 502 (245) to 503 (247).
I HAD THE REVELATION THAT
REVEALED—ITÕS IN A THREEFOLD MANNER MYSTERY LAYING BEHIND SEVEN THUNDERS
Quote: 557 (4) And now, as certain as I stand in the platform
tonight, I had the revelation that revealed—it's
in a threefold manner. That, I will speak to you by God's help of a fold of
it. And then you... Let's go over there first. Here's the revelation to begin
what... I want to tell you what it is. What happens is that those seven
thunders that he heard thunder and was forbidden to write, that's what the
mystery is laying behind those seven consecutive thunders rolling out. (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 503 (248)).
WHAT IS IT? HE DID NOT KNOW IT HIMSELF
Quote: 558-2
255} Jesus never spoke of it. John couldn't write it.
Angels know nothing about it. (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 503 (252) to 504 (256)).
Quote: 558 (3) What is it? It's the thing that
Jesus said even the Angels of heaven didn't know nothing about it. See, see? He
didn't know it Himself, said only God would know it, but He told us when we
begin to see these signs coming up... (Now, you getting somewhere? All right.)
Notice, we begin to see these signs coming up. See?É (Seals Book, New Ed.
Page 504 (256-257)).
I DONÕT KNOW HOW TO INTERPRET,
STOP! GO NO FURTHER THAN THIS
Quote: 559 (3) Now, I don't know what... I know the next
step there, but I don't know how to interpret that. It won't be long. I've got
it wrote down here when it happened, if you can see here, "STOP! Go no
further than this right here."
559 (4) I'm not prone to be a fanatic--just telling the truthÉ (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 504 (261)).
SEVENTH ANGEL WITH SEVENTH SEAL,
Quote: They were in a constellation--three on a side and one
on top. And the one right next to me here, counting from the left to the right,
would've been the seventh Angel. He was brighter, meant more to me than the
rest of them. You remember, I said he had his chest out like that, and was
flying eastward. You remember like that? And I said, "It picked me up,
lifted me up." Do you remember that? (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 506 (275)).
Quote: 561 (1) Here it is. The one with the Seventh Seal-the
thing that I've wondered all my life. Amen! Them other Seals meant a lot to me,
of course, but, oh, you don't know what this has meant! For one time in
lifeÉIÕd prayed, IÕd cried out to GodÉ (Seals
Book, New Ed. Page 506 (276-277)).
CHECKED TO STOP, REASON SEVENTH SEAL NOT
REVEALED
Quote: 564 (3) Now, I'd better stop right here. See? I just feel
checked not to say no more about it. See? So just remember, the Seventh Seal,
the reason it was not opened (See?), the reason He did not reveal it, no one
should know about it. (Seals Book,
New Ed. Page 509 (301-302)).
HE REVEALED ALL SIX SEALS, SAY NOTHING
ABOUT SEVENTH SEAL,
IT STARTS IN SECRET
Quote: 564
(4)ÉNotice now, for the end of time message (this Seal), after all He's
revealed all the six Seals, but it don't say nothing about the Seventh. And the
end time Seal, when it starts, will be absolutely a total secret according to
the Bible. Before knowing that... And remember, Revelations 10:1, 7 (1-7,
chapter 10:1-7) at the end of the seventh angel's message, all the mysteries of
God would be known. We're at the end-time--the opening of the Seventh Seal. (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 510 (304).
WHAT THIS GREAT SECRET IS, I DO NOT
KNOW,
I KNOW ITÕS THEM SEVEN THUNDERS
Quote: 567 (1) Now, notice. So help me, by God I tell the
truth, that these are spiritually discerned to me (See?), discerned by the Holy
Spirit. And by every one of them, has identified his place in the Bible. Now,
what this great secret is that lays beneath this Seal, I do not know. I don't
know it. I couldn't make it out. I couldn't tell it, just what it said. But I
know that it was them seven thunders uttering themselves right close together,
just banging seven different times, and it unfolded into something else that I
seen. (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 512
(322-323)).
I LOOKED FOR INTERPRETATION, I COULDNÕT
MAKE IT OUT,
HOUR ISNÕT QUITE YET FOR IT
Quote: 567 (2) Then when I seen that, I looked for the
interpretation that flew across there, and I couldn't make it out. That's
exactly right, friend. See? The hour isn't quite yet for it, but it's moving
into that cycle. See? It's coming up close. So the thing for you to do is to
remember that I speak to you in the Name of the Lord: Be prepared, for you
don't know what time something can happen. (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 510 (323-324)).
Quote: 567 (4) I'm only telling you what I seen and what has
been told to me, and now, you do whatever you want toÉIt may be time. It may be
the hour now, that this great person
that we're expecting to rise on the scene may rise on the scene. Maybe this
ministry that I have tried to take people back to the Word has laid a
foundation; and if it has, I'll be leaving you for good. There won't be two of
us here at the same time. See? If it is, he will increase, I'll decrease. I
don't know. But I have been privileged by God to look and see what it was--unfold
to that much. Now, that is the truth. (Seals
Book, New Ed. Page 512 (325) to 513 (328)).
ONE MYSTERY OF SEAL NOT REVEALED, REASON
IS, ITÕS THE
SEVEN THUNDERS, I DO NOT KNOW WHEN IT
WILL BE
Quote: 568 (2) "When will it be, Brother Branham?" I cannot tell
you. I do not know. But one of these days, if we never meet again on this
earth, we're going to meet yonder at the judgment seat of Christ. And you'll
find out that in that room, the revelation coming from God (just like all the
rest of them has), that them... One of the mysteries of that 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; it wasn't even
written. So we're at the end-time-- weÕre here. (Seals Book, New Ed. Page
513 (335-336)).
AS FAR AS ITÕS ORDAINED FOR ME TO BEAR
Quote: 573 (2) ÒThen, Lord, I pray that You'll help me. I'm
beginning to fade away, Lord. I know my days can't be too many more, and I pray
that You'll help me. Let me be true, Lord, and honest and sincere that I might
be able to bear the message as far as it's ordained for me to bear. And when it
comes to the time that I must lay down, when I get down to the river, and the
waves begin to come in, O God, may I be able to hand this old Sword over to
somebody else that'll be honest with It, Lord, and will pack the truth. Grant
it, LordÉÓ (Seals Book, New Ed.
518(373)).
HID TO THE WORLD, GOD WILL REVEAL IT
Quote: 574 (1)ÉItÕll be a good thing that he doesn't know
anything about it, because if he did, then he would impersonate that. That's
his tricks in doing things. So therefore, God has made it so hid to the whole
world, even to heaven, that there is no way of understanding it, only as God
will reveal it Himself. (Seals Book, New
Ed. Page 519 (377-378)).
SEVENTH SEAL THREEFOLD PURPOSE, ONE FOLD
SPOKEN, SEVEN THUNDERS WILL UNFOLD MYSTERY AT CHRISTÕS COMING
Quote: 575 (5) Now, do you notice on the opening of this
Seventh Seal, it's also in a threefold mystery. This one I haveÉwill 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. (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 520(391).
SEVEN THUNDERS WILL REVEAL CHRISTÕS
COMING AT THAT TIME
Quote: 575 (6) Did you notice when the Jews asked Him that?
You know when we compared the Scripture here with Matthew 24 with the six
Seals, the Seventh Seal was left out; because (You see?), Christ said only God
Himself knowed, not even the Angels. No wonder, it wasn't even written. You
see, they hushed; nothing take place then. Angels don't know it; nobody knows
when He's coming. But there'll beÉseven voices of these thunders that will
reveal the great revelation at that time. (New Ed. Page 520(392-393).
WE DONÕT KNOW IT, BUT IT WILL BE
REVEALED
IN THAT TIME, HOUR, DAY
Quote: 576 (1) So I believe... If we don't know it, and it
won't be known Ôtil that time, but it will be revealed in that day, in the hour
that it's supposed to be revealed in. So the thing for us to do is to be
reverent before God and serve Him, and do all that we know how to do, and live
good Christian lives. (Seals Book,
New Ed. Page 520(393).
SIXTH SEAL OPENED, SEVENTH SEAL CANNOT
BE BROKE TO
THE PUBLIC UNTIL THAT HOUR ARRIVES
Quote: 576 (2) 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. (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 521 (393).
NO ONE WOULD KNOW HIS COMING, NO ONE
KNOWS SEVEN THUNDERS
Quote: 576 (3) Now, there was some reason that God let this
seven voices be thundered, because it must come (See?)Éwe find that Christ, 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 its 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. (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 521 (394)).
THE REST OF IT IS NOT UNFOLDED, THATÕS
AS FAR AS WE CAN GO
Quote: 576 (4) That much we have an understanding of it
today, because the rest of it is all unfolded, but this is not unfolded. But
sitting in my room, and I heard thisÉnot heard it, rather, but seen it unfold
to this seven thunders. Now, that's as far as we can go right there. And now I
trust that each and every one of you will serve God, and do that which is
right, and love Him all your life and serve Him, and God will take care of the
rest. (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 521
(395-396)).
IN COMPLETION SIX SEALS, WE UNDERSTAND
SEVENTH SEAL NOT TO THE PUBLIC
Quote: 576 (5) Now, we have in the completion here now, by
the grace of God, all the mysteries of the six Seals that's been sealed up, and
we understand and know here that the Seventh Seal is not to be known to the
public. (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 521
(397)).
HOUR IS NOT YET FOR THIS MYSTERY TO BE
KNOWN,
THE REST KNOWN AROUND TIME JESUS APPEARS
Quote: 576 (7) You see Israel's gathering in its own
homeland. But you notice, He omitted the revelation of this Seventh Seal. And
here when the Seventh Seal, when He opened it, He also omitted it again. See?
So we see that it is a complete mystery, therefore, the hour is not yet for this
mystery to be known, therefore, we're this far and the rest of it will be known
right around about the time that Jesus appears on earth again for His Bride, or
whatever takes place at that time.
(Seventh Seal 63-0324e).
Quote: 577 (1) Now, until that time, let's just all pray and
live good straight Christian lives, looking forward for His coming. (Seals Book, New Ed. Page 521 (398-399)).
MAKE NO ISM – TO THIS TIME IT
ISNÕT OPENED,
PROMISED IT WOULD BE OPENED
Quote: 577 (2) And now, if this tape would happen to fall
into the hands of some persons somewhere, don't try to make any kind of an
"ism" out of it. The only thing you do, you just continue serving
God, because this great secret is so great that God wouldn't even let John
write it. It thundered out, but He... knowing that... promising us that it
would be opened, but to this time, it isn't opened. (Seals Book, New Ed. Pages 521 (400)).
WE DONÕT KNOW WHAT IT IS AS YET, BECAUSE
ITÕS NOT PERMITTED TO BE BROKEN –
NOTABLE ANGEL
Quote: 578 (3) Now, the Angel was to my left, would really
be the last, or seventh Angel, if we would count them from left to right,
because he was on my left, me looking to him towards the west, him coming
towards the east would be on the left side, so that would be the last angel's message: very notable. You
remember how I said he had his head back, and his great sharp wings, and how he
flew right to me. Now, that is this Seventh Seal. It still is a notable thing.
And weÉdon't know what it is as yet, because it's not permitted to be broken. (Seals Book, New Ed. Pages 523 (407)).
SILENCE HALF HOUR, SEVEN THUNDERS, HOW
HE IS COMING
HE HASNÕT REVEALED YET
Quote: 17-3 057 Jesus, when He was on earth, they wanted to
know when He would come. He said, " Even the Son Himself don't know when
it's going to happen." See, God has this all to Himself. It's a secret.
And that's the reason there was silence in heaven for a space of a half hour.
And Seven Thunders uttered their voices, and John was even forbidden to write
it (See?)--the coming of the Lord. That's one thing He hasn't revealed yet, of
how He will come, and when He will come. It's a good thing that He doesn't. No.
He has showed or revealed it in every type that's in the Bible. (Christ Is The Mystery 63-0728).
HE HID SEVENTH SEAL FROM US – NO
ONE KNEW –COMING OF THE LORD - SEVENTH SEAL–HE WOULDNÕT PERMIT US
TO KNOW
Quote: 33-3 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's silence in heaven." No one knew. It was the coming of
the Lord. (Souls In Prison Now
63-1110M).
Quote: 23-4 076 Now we see these things. Remember the Seven
Seals is finished. And when those seven revealed truths... One of them He wouldn't permit us to know. How many was here at the
Seven Seals? Just about all of you, I guess. See? The Seventh Seal, He wouldn't permit it. (Souls In Prison Now 63-1110M).
Quote: 182 This Book's already opened (That's right) just
waiting for the Seventh Seal to be identified with the coming of Christ. (What Shall I Do With Jesus 63-1124M).
Ø Anybody that preaches the seventh seal, they will be
preaching the coming of Christ, because the coming of Christ identifies the
seventh seal.
ØThe seventh
seal goes along with the coming of
Christ. If youÕre preaching the seventh seal, you have to know the ins and outs about the coming of Christ,
because the coming of Christ identifies the seventh seal.
Quote W.M.B.: 26-4 That Seventh Seal
hasn't opened yet, you know; that's His coming. (Feast of the Trumpets 64-0719M).
HE OPENED THE SIX SEALS
Quote: 26-5 You think that little noise out here in Tucson
was something, when He opened the six seals, that shook the country around
about and caused the talk, wait till this earth receives her baptism! (Future Home 64-0802).
SEVENTH ANGEL WAS TO OPEN SIX-SEAL
MYSTERY
Quote: 270 ÒThe seventh angel was to open the six-seal
mystery. It's all to be gathered up in the Son of man, His fullness of time has
come to the Fullness of His Word to manifest the fullness of His Body.Ó (Proving His Word 64-0816).
TEACHING LAST SEVEN THUNDERS –
COULDNÕT GET ROOM TO DO IT
Quote: 16 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 Revelations, tying them
together in this hour that we're now living to follow the opening of the Seven
Seals, the Seven Church Ages. So we couldn't get room to do it. (God Of This Evil Age 65-0801M).
WAIT TILL WE GET IN TO OPEN THEM SEVEN
THUNDERS
Quote: 22-5 Just wait till we get in to open those 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. (Knoweth
It Not 65-0815).
What you ministers sanctioned
tonight everybody believed and sanctioned the same, for ten years after the
seals in 1963, that the 7th seal/7thunders was not revealed. The
things that we have sanctioned are what the prophet said. I was in their midst,
none preached on the thunders until
this heresy came from New York. Then everybody had a thunders fever. They based
their thoughts upon two quotations of Church Ages page 327 and Q&A-1964.
Quote W.M.B.: 327-1
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.Ó (Laodicean Church Age page 327).
Nowhere
on the Church Ages tapes states that the 7 thunders are revealed. This
projection is saying what the ministry is supposed to do: Òreveal the mystery
of the 7 thunders, that it was contained in the 7 seals.Ó Brother Branham said
differently to this statement on the church ages.
Quote W.M.B.: 75 (3-4) ÒThe Book is absolutely a sealed Book until the Seven Seals
are broken. It is sealed up with Seven Seals. Now, that's different from the Seven Thunders.Ó (The Breach
17/3/63). (New Ed. Page 66(49).
I
am verifying by the words of the prophet that the mystery of the 7 thunders is different from the 7 seals. Something
is wrong with that statement on the edited church ages book. Therefore, I am
saying to the whole world and all the ministers that this is the projection of
Dr. Lee Vayle which he injected into
the church ages book. Nowhere on the church age tapes did brother Branham say
that the 7 thunders are the 7 seals. Dr. Vayle should have stayed with the
church Age tapes preached in 1960. Brother Branham did not, and could not be
dealing with the 7 thunders in the church ages messages in 1960.
Dr.
Lee Vayle overstepped his bounds and went dealing with the subject of the
seals. He had no business doing that. Here we have two different statements in contradiction to each other: Lee Vayle
saying that the thunders is the seals and Brother Branham saying it is not and
itÕs different from the 7 seals.
I
am saying to the ministers present and those who will hear or read this, that
we believe Malachi 4:5&6. We reject
the statement of Dr. Lee Vayle, who believed contrary to Brother Branham on
other items. He was only baptized after the seals in 1963. He could not know
more about the seals and 7 thunders than the prophet. He has mixed up a lot of
people around the message. People lay down their very souls upon his words. We reject this doctrine, it is not right.
A
statement of the prophet on Question and Answers 1964, resembles Dr. VayleÕs
statement, when asked about if the 7 thunders are revealed. The prophet answer was ÒNo!Ó, and
repeated what the question asked.
Quote W.M.B.: 1161-Q-395 ÒHave 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. The seven
thunders that had uttered their voices and no one could make out what it was...
John knew what it was, but he was forbidden to write it. He said, "But the
seventh angel, in the days of his sounding, the seven mysteries of the seven
thunders would be revealed." (COD Questions & Answers 64-0830).
The
prophet lived in anticipation and expectation of receiving the 7 thunders but
he concluded at the event of the seals that it was not revealed to him.
WHAT THIS GREAT SECRET IS, I DO NOT
KNOW,
I KNOW ITÕS THEM SEVEN THUNDERS
Quote W.M.B.: 567 (1) Now, notice. So help me, by God
I tell the truth, that these are spiritually discerned to me (See?), discerned
by the Holy Spirit. And by every one of them, has identified his place in the
Bible. Now, what this great secret is that lays beneath this Seal, I do not
know. I don't know it. I couldn't make it out. I couldn't tell it, just what it
said. But I know that it was them seven thunders uttering themselves right
close together, just banging seven different times, and it unfolded into
something else that I seen. (Seals
Book, New Ed. Page 512 (322-323)).
People
who want to go on with the error that the 7th
seal/7 thunders are revealed take the very quotations that are above which
emphasized that itÕs not revealed, bend and twist it out of context and ignore
all the preaching of the prophet which says that it is not revealed.
Our
stand as ministers of Bethel and from around the world, declares that it was
not revealed but will be revealed before the coming of the Lord for the Bride.
Question # 789: ÒThe Rapture: tell us more about it please.Ó
E.O.D.H.
Contribution: There are many heresies
associated with the rapture, many of which were undeniably exposed by the Word
and message of the prophet.
The
most effective exposition is based upon the fact that the 1st
resurrection, the changed body and the rapture are 3 separate events and works
of grace. The rapture happens after the 1st resurrection and changed
body. The changed body takes place in a moment in the twinkling of an eye, thus
heresies which stated that it is a progressive event and started in 1963, are
wrong. It happens only after the 1st resurrection and changed body.
Rapture heresies are as follows:
HERESIES BASED ON
THE RAPTURE
á
Dates set
for the rapture.
á
It is in 3
stages, the first which started in 1963.
á
All is over, the
church is just to wait upon the rapture.
á
The bride will be
raptured twice.
á
The bride will be
raptured within 1500 miles of the desert of Arizona.
á
All preachers
lead their flocks to the rapture regardless of their doctrine.
á
The rapture is a
progressive event which started in 1963.
á
The bride has
enough power now for the rapture.
á
The rapture will
take members from all organizations who are sincere.
á
The revelation of
the rapture is the 7 thunders from New York.
á
Neal Frisby of
Arizona USA and 8th messenger after Malachi 4 must live until the
rapture. However he died early this year.
á
The rapture has
already taken place.
POWER FOR FIRST
RESURRECTION, BEFORE RAPTURE
Before the
rapture takes place we must have the resurrection
of the dead saints! There must of necessity be a resurrection of the saints. (I Corinthians 15:51-52) What follows
after that resurrection is the changing of the bodies of the living saints? Now
a changed body is different from the
rapture. The Lord will resurrect the bodies of the saints of God from the seven
Church Ages. Only after they are resurrected, the living saints of God have a
changed body. After the
resurrection and the changed body, then comes the catching away of the Bride.
To bring the dead from the
grave, change the brideÕs body, and go in the rapture, we need Power in such a
measure as we do not have now. ÒThere must of necessity be a return of dynamic power.Ó That is what we
are contending for.
CHANGED BODY AND
RAPTURE ARE DIFFERENT
Jesus
received a changed body, and was walking around for forty days. After He walked
the face of the earth for forty days and communicated with His disciples, then
and only then did He go up in the rapture. This proves that the changed body
and the rapture are two different articles.
I am not sure how long we will
be here with our changed bodies, but I know for sure that there will be a
resurrection.
He said that the saints of God
will be resurrected in the first resurrection and they will be upon the earth.
THOSE THAT ARE DEAD WILL COME FORTH
FIRST
Quote W.M.B.: 715-135 II Thessalonians, 5th chapterÉ
Ôthe dead in Christ shall rise first,Õ the privilege of those that are dead
will come forth firstÉ ÔThen we which are alive and remain shall be changed in
a moment, twinkling of an eye, and shall be caught up together with them to
meet the Lord in the air.Õ (Questions
And Answers 62-0527).
WE ALL MEET RIGHT HERE TOGETHER
Quote: 115 The going
up of the saints in the resurrection. You see, we all meet right here togetherÉfor the trumpet of God shall sound,
and the dead in Christ shall rise first; and we shall be caught up together
with them (Amen.)--with them (here we are, meeting
right here) to go to meet the Lord
in the air. (Seventy Weeks Of Daniel
61-0806).
When Jesus was resurrected
from the sepulcher, He stayed upon the earth forty days.
When the time comes, there is
a sweep that comes over the bride.
Waves of glory and power are going to sweep over them. Then they are
changed!
SWEEP OVER US AND YOUÕRE CHANGED
Quote W.M.B.: 934 These mortal bodies will not see
death, but just of a sudden, there'll be like a sweep go over us, and
you're changed. You're turned back
like Abraham was, from an old man to a young man, from an old woman to a young
woman. (Questions and Answers
64-0823m).
WAVE AFTER WAVE OF THE SPIRIT –
RESURRECTION – IÕLL KNOW MY PEOPLE
Quote: 97 There will be wave after wave of His glory will
come across the earth, and the resurrection of the saints shall comeÉA great
wave of that same SpiritÉ "He that was last will be first, and he that was
first will be last."ÉThat's the order of the resurrectionÉAnd every
generation will come successfully, right as it went downÉI'll know my people.
The next fellow, my dad will know his people. (Seven Church Ages
54-0512).
Question # 790: ÒIs
there another man to come to reveal the 7 thunders? Since it was not revealed.
God always brings his mysteries through a man.Ó
E.O.D.H. Contribution: The prophet did truly state that he will decrease and
another will increase (page 567 seals). Nevertheless, Brother Branham did not
say who this great person is. So let us not try to venture out too far in
trying to assume who he may be. I do believe, when this person comes on the
scene that the elect will recognize him.
John 10:27 <My sheep hear my voice, and I know them,
and they follow me.>
All in all, it will be the
ministry of Christ. God always uses human agency, but the glory goes to Him.
People
try to put everything in Brother Branham until they make a resurrection
doctrine, but GodÕs ministry continues and there is a five-fold ministry and
God will use other men.
On this question, it is a matter of waiting for that
revelation to be made known. However, it starts in secret somewhere and will be
broken to the public later. We must wait and see. One sure thing, that ministry
will fit the 8 identifications of the Seven Thunders ministry (E.O.D.H Book 8),
and it will work within the true program for the Seventh Seal/Seven Thunders
(E.O.D.H. book 12).
Many arose from around the world who claimed to have
that ministry to reveal the seventh seal/seven thunders. But their ministry
does not dovetail with the word. They contradicted the bible, the written word
and the prophet and finally their immoral lives exposed them and their false
claims. The prophet in a quotation below clearly stated that such claims must
dovetail with the word.
It is heart-rending to hear the claims of preachers
even in Africa and India. Many of these claims were exposed on our volumes of
E.O.D.H, especially books 8 and 12.
I TOLD YOU WHATEVER WAS TOLD ME, DO
WHATEVER YOU WANT TO
Quote W.M.B.: 567 (3) Now, when that gets on tape,
which it is, that'll probably send ten thousand of my friends away from me,
'cause they're going to say that Brother Branham's trying to put himself and
make himself a servant, or a prophet, or something before God. Let me tell you,
my brethren, that is an error. I'm only
telling you what I seen and what has been told to me, and now, you do whatever
you want to. I don't know who's going to—what is going to take place.
I do not know. I just know that those seven thunders holds that mystery, that
heavens was quieted. (Everybody understand?)
(Seventh Seal 63-0324E).
Quote: 573 (2) ÒThen,
Lord, I pray that You'll help me. I'm beginning to fade away, Lord. I know my
days can't be too many more, and I pray that You'll help me. Let me be true,
Lord, and honest and sincere that I might be able to bear the message as far as
it's ordained for me to bear. And when it comes to the time that I must lay
down, when I get down to the river, and the waves begin to come in, O God, may
I be able to hand this old Sword over to somebody else that'll be honest with
It, Lord, and will pack the truth. Grant it, LordÉÓ (Seals Book, New Ed.
518(373)).
Quote: 284-5 {42} ÒThat's the way the church ages and Seals
and all the rest of it. And when anybody thinks that he has those seven
thunders, if it don't compare with the rest of the Word, there's something
wrong here. See? It's got to come THUS SAITH THE LORD, for this is the Book;
this is the revelation of Jesus Christ in its entiretyÓ. (The Fourth Seal 63-0321).
E.O.D.H. Contribution:
Quote W.M.B.: 40-3 Oh, Christian, what a opportunity
we have. We have opportunities that St. Paul never dreamed of having. We have
opportunities that Enoch, and Elijah, and all of them never had, the
opportunities we have now. There's one little sheep out yonder somewhere, and
He will not be satisfied till that one comes in the fold. By the help of God,
and by a vision, and THUS SAITH THE LORD, I'm returning across the sea. That
last little sheep may even be a black
one down there, for all I know, where they don't even think they got a
soul, but God knows different. I'm going to seek till the last day of my life
to find that one, wherever it is.
(The Easter Seal 65-0410).
The above is the only
statement that I was able to find pertinent to the black sheep which Brother
Branham spoke about. The statement does not in the least prophecy or indicates
that the black sheep would be a man with a special office, prophetic or otherwise.
If we are to look casually
into the statement of the prophet without any pre-conceived idea and
interpretation, it can be well understood that he is speaking of an elected
believer or believers to come into Christ and not a prophet.
He longed to reach that sheep
and purposed to do so unto the last day of his life. He did not specify that
the last little sheep was absolutely in Africa,
but spoke in suggestive terms that it maybe there or some other place. The
great prophetic emphasis was not on the black sheep but on his commission to go
to Africa.
The prophetÕs emphasis of
finding the last little sheep is connected with other statements that he made
concerning the coming into the body of the last
elected member of the bride. He longed for that because the Lord would come
immediately after they come into the body.
Quote W.M.B.: But let me say this. Our Lord is not
defeated. Men claim to open the door to God and shut that door, but they are
liars. All that the Father has given Him will come to Him, and he that cometh
to Him in no wise will be cast out; He will lose NONE of them. John 6:37-39.
And when that last elected member to the body of Christ comes in, then will our
Lord appear. (Philadelphian Church
Age - Church Age Book Cpt.8).
Quote: 179-1{14} Polycarp was a student of Saint John.
(That's correct; he was.) I think Irenaeus was a student of--of Polycarp.
(That's correct, exactly.) Irenaeus said, 'Jesus will return--will return when the last elected member of
the body of Christ comes in.' (The
Second Seal 63-0319).
At the ministers meeting
pastor Ramnarine read an additional quote:
Quote W.M.B.: 71
As it was like in the days of Noah, when the last member of the family was
brought in, God closed the door. And they beat and pounded, but it was too
late. Dear God, they had the opportunity. You said, "I am that Door to the
sheepfold." And how striking the song from the poet, "Are not ninety
and nine enough for Thee? But, no, there was one more." He might be a
little black sheep, or he might be a little nobody, might be the little her or
he. We don't know where they are, but that last one must come in, and then the
door will be closed. O God, Who knows all things, search our lives this
morning. And send us wherever that we could go, that we might find that last
one, that the door would be closed and the Shepherd inside with the sheep.
Grant it, Lord. If there be that one here today, if that one that is supposed
to come in... "All the Father has given Me will come to Me. And no man can
come, except My Father has drawed him." (One In A Million 65-0424).
Question # 792: ÒIs the 7th Church age over?Ó
E.O.D.H. Contribution:
REVELATION 10: 1-6
The Angel of Revelation 10:1 swore that time was no
longer. Time no longer is Church Ages Time. If Church Ages Time is sworn away,
then he must point us to another age. That age is called the Bride Age. Time has now crossed over
from the Seventh Church Age to the Bride Age or the Eighth Day. The Seventh
Church Age is the Laodicean Church Age. The Laodicean Age continues for the Gentiles but those who have heard the
revelation of the message of Malachi 4:5-6, have stepped out into the Bride
Age.
In
1963 Elijah was turned out from the Organizations and Denominations and his
Message was rejected. The angel that swore that time is no longer, descended in
1963. The Seals were opened and when the Book became opened it marked the time
between Church Ages Time and the Bride Age.
While
the seventh day continues, the Bride stepped out into an Eternal Age because she
possesses eternal life.
BRIDE AGE
Quote W.M.B. 139 ÒIt's
getting harvest time. This is not Luther's age; this is not Pentecost age; this
is the Bride age. (Modern Events Made Clear By Prophecy 65-1206).
Quote: 186 This is
not a Pentecostal age; this is the latter-day age, this is the Bride Age. (I Have Heard But Now I See 65-1127E).
Quote: 34-6 See, and we're ending the seventh church age the Pentecostal age. Do you see it?
We're entering the holy convocation. We are entering into that real, genuine
eternity, where the Church is called, not to some station, some denomination,
but into eternity with their eternal King. See? We don't have it at all.
There's no such a thing as days and things and times. You passed into Eternity,
where you come from. You was there to begin with. (Future Home 64-0802).
CHURCH AGE
OVER- GO INTO ETERNITY
Quote: 35-3 Now, in
Ephesians 1:10 it's called (now, if you're putting it down)--Ephesians 1:10 is
called, not a dispensation, not the seventh day; it's called the fullness of time. And when the fullness
of time has come, that's when time has been fulfilled, when there is no more
time, then you go into eternity. After the seventh church age is over (and it is); Luther's age is over; Methodist age is
over; Pentecostal age is over, and now you go into what? Eternity.Ó (Future Home
64-0802).
LAODICEAN AGE LAPS OVER INTO ETERNITY
Quote: 318 Now,
it'll come a time where, first thing you know, the church will just start
cooling. Now, how many people that--that's noticed the cooling off of the
church in the last few years? Sure. What's it going into? Laodicea. Where we'll
pick up tonight and bring the angel of the Laodicean church out, bring it out
there so you can see it, and see his message, and what it'll be, and at the end
of the Laodicean church age when she laps over in and spreads out into eternity
then. (Ten Virgins 60-1211m).
RESTORATION AGE
Quote: 380-2 This is
the age of apostasy, and this is the age of restoration, it is the age of the
finished cycle. With this, it is all overÓ. (A Resume Of The Ages - Church Age Book Cpt.10).
Quote: 86 We are in
our journey, are something like Israel was. Israel, in their journey, had to
get new manna every day, for new manna fell. We are supposed not to live in the
light of Luther, live in the light of--of Wesley, or live in the light of
Pentecost. We're in another age: new Manna. What happened if they tried to keep
that manna over? It contaminated. It would kill them. That's the reason we got
so many spiritual dead, so-called Christians. They're eating a glare of another
day. They're eating manna that's already contaminated. Just like the husk upon
the wheat, if it doesn't go into the wheat, it goes off of the wheat. And when
Light is rejected, there isn't but one thing to do, turned into darkness. Any
portion of the night would refuse to see the Light, goes back into darkness. So
does it in the Gospel; in every age it's been proven to be so. We're living in
that time. (Turn On The Light
64-0125).
Question # 793: ÒWill Jesus come in
2007 or 2008 according to calculations?Ó
E.O.D.H. Contribution: Many dates were set for the coming of the Lord and the
rapture of the Christian church. This is a spirit and strategy of the devil to overthrow the faith of sincere believers.
It dates back even to the time of Apostle Paul and he had to correct it for the
Thessalonians Christians.
II Thessalonians 2:1-4 <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.>
II Timothy 2:16-18 <But shun profane and vain babblings: for they
will increase unto more ungodliness.
And their word will eat as doth a canker: of whom is Hymenaeus and
Philetus;
Who concerning the truth have erred, saying that the resurrection is
past already; and overthrow the faith
of some.>
The
above scripture bears record of the existing spirit and damnable heresies,
which worked through message ministers whom Paul identified by names, because
of how destructive such a heresy was, insomuch that it overthrew the faith of some. That is exactly what setting of dates
for the coming of the Lord and rapture, have done in modern times and even
since the days of the prophet of God. One man thought that the millennium was
on and ran hastily and asked where we can find it.
Quote W.M.B.: 516-2 {351} A man running up here the
other dayÉ He said, "Well, where's the millennium at?" I said,
"I don't know." He said, "Why... you mean it's going on right
here and you don't know it?" And I said, "No, sir, I don't."
And he said, "Well, glory to God," said, "I got some
friends that come, told me," and said, "I quit work;"ÉSaid,
"What did... You say your name was, Branham?" I said,... "And
you don't know nothing about the millennium?"É He said, "No, it's
right nowÉI said, "Where's it at?" He said, "Jeffersonville,
Indiana, right under the bridge." (QA
On The Seals 63-0324M).
That heresy of setting dates
and time for the rapture prevailed up to the present hour, only that it is done
in a more subtle way. Instead of
saying that itÕs a revelation and prophecy to be fulfilled; heretics try to
imitate the prediction of Brother Branham for 1977. But in truth and in fact,
they believe that itÕs a revelation from the Lord.
Concerning
the prediction of Brother Branham of 1977, it was based upon seven major
visions given to the prophet in 1933. He said that he predicted that all seven
visions will be fulfilled by that year and we will usher into the millennium.
He clearly stated that itÕs a prediction
and not a prophecy.
Quote
W.M.B.: 321-2 The Laodicean Age began
around the turn of the Twentieth Century, perhaps 1906. How long will it last?
As a servant of God who has had multitudes of visions, of which NONE has ever
failed, let me predict (I did not say prophesy, but predict) that this age will
end around 1977. If you will pardon a personal note here, I base this
prediction on seven major continuous visions that came to me one Sunday morning
in June, 1933. The Lord Jesus spoke to me and said that the coming of the Lord
was drawing nigh, but that before He came, seven major events would transpire.
I wrote them all down and that morning I gave forth the revelation of the Lord.
(Laodicean Church Age Cpt.9).
There
were several dates set for the
coming of the Lord and rapture by organizations. When such dates failed it overthrew the faith of many and several
suicides followed. The Millerites now known as Adventists and the Russelites
now known as the Jehovah witnesses both set dates which failed, some suicides
followed.
Many
other dates were set by fanatics throughout the world and, needless to say, all
failed. Many message believers did not learn from such fanaticism, because some
under the message continued to set dates for the rapture.
A date was set for 1970. This was based
upon the Jewish calendar which they said is seven years advanced of the Roman
calendar. Heretics subtracted seven years from the prediction of Brother
Branham for 1977.
A date was set for 1973 and a half,
which was June 1974. This was done by the main thunders cult and its leader
from New York. That was based upon the 1977 prediction of the prophet. Heretics
again subtracted 3 ½ years based upon the seventieth week of Daniel.
Some were influenced by this heresy in the Caribbean insomuch that men separated from their wives. They were
later reconciled when the rapture did not take place. Some backslid and went
into the world.
A date was set for 1976 by some in the USA and Caribbean, based upon the fact that
1976 was 200 years of AmericaÕs independency from England and that Brother
Branham said that no nation ever made it through for 200 years.
Another date was set for 1977. This was based upon the 1977
prediction of Brother Branham. Heretics turned it into a prophecy and
revelation of the Lord. This had a great impact upon many in USA and other
countries of the world. Many destroyed their spoken word books or gave them
away and proclaimed that the message and the prophet were proven false.
Quote W.M.B.: 76 As we see the days darkening, as we
see the shadows falling... When I predict it's just a few more turns of the sun
this nation's gone. Do you know, yesterday, fourth of July, where Thomas
Jefferson had signed the Declaration of Independence, him and the other board
that was with him, and the Liberty Bell rang, and we was declared an independence
as a nation... According to history there has never been a democracy at any
time last over two hundred years. And that was 1776, July the fourth. And we're
just eleven years left. Will it make it? No, can't. Eleven years, and if it does, it'll break all history. (The Masterpiece 64-0705).
Many in the message realized that they could not speak
for God and had their mouths shut. They became silent for several years though there existed small factions who
continued to set dates and time for the coming of the Lord and rapture. In the year 2000 they came up with
another bright idea and many contracted a Y2K
fever of the computer nonsense. The main propagator of that heresy was the
ÒIndian chiefÓ and the Òdove led eagleÓ of central Trinidad. The Lord also
silenced such fanatics throughout USA and the rest of the world. All their
revelations proved to be false, presumptuous and heretical.
Another date was subtly set by a heretic
from Singapore. He is smart, intellectual and most arrogant and placed his
revelation in such a cunning manner with all indications that itÕs a revelation
from the Lord and at the same time left loopholes for its failure. Thus when
his prophecy failed he quickly claimed that it was a prediction and cited the
1977 prediction of the prophet to defend himself.
Another date was set by the Puerto
Rican Christ and eighth messenger for a public tent ministry in 2004.
Tents and buildings were erected in several places of South America for the
great tent meetings prophesied by Brother Branham. Such fanatical followers
believed this man to be Òthe coming of the Lord who did come since 1974, veiled
in human flesh and that the new name
is that manÕs first name ÔWilliamÕ.Ó They were not looking for the coming of
the Lord but the rapture since William was the very coming of the Lord. Two
heretics who often communicated with me concerning this doctrine are now silent
since WilliamÕs prophecy failed. We seldom hear of that great satanic movement
here in Trinidad.
All dates that were set for the coming
of the Lord and the rapture failed, since the early church, even unto recent
years. It overthrew the faith of many and made infidels of some who once
believed.
Such
dates that were set failed, because there was no specific time period given to
the gentiles as seventy weeks of time were given to the Jews (Daniel 9:27). It
just stated times of the gentiles (Luke 21). Nothing was left the Christian
church, by prophets, Jesus or the apostles so that they can calculate the date
of the LordÕs coming and the rapture.
Thus,
to set the date for the LordÕs coming and the rapture for 2007-2008 is presumptuous,
unscriptural, heretical and fanatical. Why should we as ministers fall to such
unscriptural prophecy or prediction?
In conclusion may I state that the Lord
could very well come at anytime, but none has the authority to set a date. We
should all learn from the 1977 failed prediction of Brother Branham and
understand that if he was Elijah the prophet, Malachi 4:5-6, the most spiritual
man that ever walked the face of the earth since the days of the Apostles, and
he could not do it, then none of us should.
Matthew 25:13 <Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the
hour wherein the Son of man cometh.>
Question # 794: ÒHow to start a church?Ó
E.O.D.H. Contribution: It is very easy to start an organization as it is
based on political principles. Many have adopted that policy to try to start a
Christian church. The church of God never got started under political grounds.
The church began on the day of Pentecost by the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. It was a
supernatural affair. Therefore God alone can start a church. He was made flesh
in the man ÔJesus.Õ After being on earth for 30 years, there was no church
formed, (Matthew 16:13-18). Then God anointed Jesus of Nazareth. Being moved by
the Holy Ghost, He called His disciples. He said to some, ÒFollow me and I will
make you fishers of menÓ, and others likewise. All that He supernaturally
called followed him. He anointed the 12 apostles (Matthew 10) and then again
anointed 70. Thousands of disciples followed him. There was a great mixed
multitude in that church yet it was not an organization. God formed that
church. It went up to Pentecost with only 120, where it was officially
inaugurated.
In consideration of the above,
it takes:
á
A true gift of God resident in Jesus, the
Spirit of the Almighty, anointing that gift.
á
The leadership
of the Holy Spirit for the right time and season to call GodÕs children.
á
The word of truth and a revelation of the message of the hour.
á
The five MUSTS
that Brother Branham emphasized must be obeyed.
The church will be set in
order after God has gathered His elect by His voice. (My sheep hear my voice).
The apostle Paul commissioned
Timothy (1Timothy 3) and Titus to set the church in order, after he was
instrumental in forming the church when he went out on his missionary journeys.
He had something that message believers greatly lack, that is demonstration and
power of the Holy Ghost. 1 Corinthians 2; he said he came to them in the power
and demonstration of the Holy Spirit.
Many churches were formed by
the apostle Paul. He fits the description and rules above, time, season and the
word of truth. He was anointed for the job and sent by God to accomplish that
great task. The book of Acts bears records of many churches that he founded and
how it was done. ThatÕs the scriptural way. Some under different conditions
called together their neighbors and friends and declare the message, which is
wonderful. Few are added from time to time and become acquainted with the
message of the prophet. Many are destroyed soon after because of a lack of
revelation on the message and not having the Spirit. Some survive as mental
believers and take the form of organizations and become party groups who are
not careful to adhere to all of the message. They dress and live like the world
and cannot live the ÒabcÕsÓ of the message because of weak pulpits, void of the
spirit. This is evidently manifested when they fight the promise of God, which
declares to them a final outpouring of the Holy Ghost before the rapture.
Because of such systems of
churches and how they were born, is the reason
for gross heresies around the world, even since the days of the prophet.
Hence the reason for our work, Exposition of Damnable Heresies, and even in
this they fight back because they are dominated by the so-called love gospel,
forgetting that love is corrective, but God will restore a church like the one
He had on the day of Pentecost. He will get it started again by a final
outpouring of the Holy Spirit, Amen.
Having come to the end of
presenting my contribution for your
ministers meetings, I humbly state that I have endeavored to keep in line with
the written Word of God and the message of the prophet. I am not sure how my
contributions will be presented to the ministers of God, who will be assembled
for the ministers meeting. I entrust this matter into the hands of our brother
and pastor Bahoya and his helper Ruben Sah. Copies of this document are
available to all ministers by request from Bethel the House of God via email.
Our email address is Mountainspring_@hotmail.com.
Comments and questions based upon the answers given are
welcomed, only that I request that we stay on the subject matter of each
question. It should not be a presentation of opinions from any source, since I
do not recognize nor entertain opinions on subject matters as long as the
prophet established a doctrine by the written Word of God. He is right as the
major prophet of God, Malachi 4:5&6, and all others are wrong.
Finally, my
brethren, servants of God and fellow-ministers of the mysteries of Christ, I
close this letter with the deepest love and respect to all who are gathered and
to those who will read this document in the future. May the peace that passeth
understanding rest and abide upon you and all who love the Lord Jesus Christ.
We are thankful to you
ministers of Cameroon Africa for giving us this opportunity to give our
contributions to your ministers meeting by literature and other electronic
medium.
We
declare that we have done so in the sincerity of our hearts, without pride and
boastfulness, but with the deepest sincerity of love, that it may be of
edification to all that will hear in your ministers meeting and will greatly
benefit the souls of many around the world who follow the message of the hour.
May
the good Lord give you light and understanding and may we spend eternity
together is our hope and prayer. We have labored tonight from 7:00 pm answering
questions that will benefit many around the world. Our meeting is closing here
at 12:20 am, yet if there was a need we would have continued. That is the way
we think of the soulsÕ salvation of our brothers and sisters around the
message.
Our
contribution is not presented in arrogance
nor anger but in the sweetness of the Holy Spirit. Although our voices may
be loud sometimes, we want you to understand that it is done in love for the
souls of men. May the Lord prosper you ministers and may we be gathered at
Jesus feet is our prayer. Peace be unto thee. [Praises and worship followed.]
