Perez*\] Good morning, beloved brethren and friends present; it is truly a great blessing and a great privilege to be able to be here on this occasion in The Great Tent Cathedral, in Puerto Rico, today, Sunday, February 16th of this year, 2025. Greetings to Missionary Miguel Bermudez Marin there in Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico: May God continue blessing him greatly and continue using him mightily in the Work of God at this end time in favor of all the Church of the Lord. Also, happy birthday to our brother, Mr. Benjamin Cruz, whose birthday is today, may God bless him; and to all those who are also celebrating their birthdays. A little sister from Colombia, who’s turning 10 years old, Rebeca Mandon Ahumada: she has been a miracle since birth, her mother was telling me; and today she’s turning 10 years old, and she’s very happy, very healthy. Thanks be to our Heavenly Father who has granted her life; and all of us as well: placing us to live in such a glorious time. And to all those whose birthdays are this month: May God bless you greatly as well. And to all those who are visiting us: a warm welcome; and to those who are watching through the Amazonas satellite and the Eutelsat 8 satellite in the different countries; and to all of you present here as well, may God bless you greatly. For this occasion our subject is: **THE TITLE DEED** **IN THE HANDS OF THE HUMAN RACE** **(Ministers’ Meeting)** *Dr. William Soto Santiago* *Saturday, December 27, 2003* *Cayey, Puerto Rico* **Scripture: Revelation 10:1-11** **Revelation 10:1** *1 And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:* *2 And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth,* *3 And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.* *4 And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not.* *5 And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,* *6 And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:* *\[WSS\] «**of Redemption**»*, he writes there. *7 But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.* **THE TITLE DEED** **IN THE HANDS OF THE HUMAN RACE** \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] The Title Deed is an abstract Book\*. In the book of *The Seals*, on page 89, it tells us… (let’s also have this one over here, that way we can see all these places; because in each one of them we see… here’s the other one. Our brother Branham tells us there: page 89 \[p. 106 in Eng. (The Breach…)\] of the book of ***The Seals***: \*\[*The Seals*, “The Breach…,” p. 83, paras. 117-119\] 290 Now watch. And when He done that, watch what taken place. You talk about a jubilee! \[JBP\] On the right he writes there: *\[WSS\] «**the Year of Jubilee**».* In this one, he also writes on the right : *\[WSS\] «**½ hour**»* (right above there). \[290\] Now this is exactly the breaking of them Seals, take place. We’ll get in “the half hour of silence,” just after this. Watch this, and we’ll start in. We’ll finish this up, next Sunday night, right here. And listen close now. Are you ready? Say, “Amen.” (…) \[JBP\] In this one he writes, on the right: *\[WSS\] «**The ½ hour of silence in Heaven**».* \[JBP\] When? When He takes the Deed, the Book, and opens It: the half hour begins then. And he writes…, he writes there, in this one as well: *\[WSS\] «**Future**».* 291 When all creation was groaning; no one knowed what to do, and John was weeping. \[JBP\] There he writes: *\[WSS\] «**John weeping**»*, on the right. In all of them he writes: *\[WSS\] «**John weeping**».* \[291\] “Here come the Lamb, walked over!” And this Book was in the hands of—of the original Owner, because man had fell and lost It. And no man was able to take It, anymore, to redeem the earth; no priest, pope, nothing, as I said. “But the Lamb come up!” No Mary, no saint this, or saint that. “The Lamb come up, bloody, slain, and took the Book out of the right hand of Him that sat upon the Throne.” And when they seen there was a Redeemer; and all the—the souls under the altar (\[JBP\] above that, he writes): *\[WSS\] «**6th dimension**»*, when the Angels, when the elders, when the everything seen it, when this is done. (\[JBP\] There on the right, upwards, he also writes): *\[WSS\] «**everything lies in the future**».* It, yet, lays in the future. Tonight He’s a Mediator, but He is coming to this. Watch. \[JBP\] There he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Everything lies in the future**».* Over here he writes: *\[WSS\] «**It lies in the future**».* And on the left he draws a Cornerstone and the ages, and the arrow towards the Cornerstone. \[291\] *And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and the four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of the saints.* 292 **That’s those that’s under the altar**, that have prayed, for long ago. See, they had prayed for redemption, prayed for resurrection (\[JBP\] now, there he draws a Star on the right). And here these—these elders are pouring out their prayers before…Cause, now we’ve got a Representative, we’ve got a Kinsman in Heaven, that’s come forth to make His claims. \[JBP\] And there he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The Claim**».* In this one - in that same paragraph that we just read, where it says: “That’s those that’s under the altar,” above that he writes: *\[WSS\] «**In the 6th dimension**».* And at the end of the paragraph that we read, on the right, in the margin, he draws a Star of David. And he writes to the left of that paragraph: *\[WSS\] «**Altar – prayers**».* \[JBP\] You know that this, just like one puts a puzzle together… When we spoke about the Teaching under the Tent, he used to tell me: \[WSS\] “That’s a puzzle.” Now we are really understanding what the Teaching under the Tent is; and it’s a puzzle. Everything is coming together (because it’s all there); but God wanted to do it this way so there wouldn’t be impersonations, so that the enemy wouldn’t get ahead to deceive the elect. There is a way, there is a method; and the only One who can put it together is the Holy Spirit. \[292\] *And they sang a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to our God* (watch) *by thy blood out of every kindred,…tongue, and people, and nation;* *And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.* \[JBP\] There on the left, above he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The Resurrection - they wanted to come back**».* 293 They wanted to come back. And here they are going back, to be kings and priests. 294 Glory to God! I feel good enough to speak in tongues. Look. Watch. Yes. It seems like I ain’t got enough language; I could praise Him with it. I need **one** that I don’t even know. \[JBP\] And he underlines “one” a lot, and he circles it, and he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Spanish**».* And here he writes, on the left as well: *\[WSS\] «**Kings and priests**».* And in this one he writes, on the left as well: *\[WSS\] «**Future**»*, meaning that it lies in the future. *\[WSS\] «**Resurrection**».* And he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Another language**».* \[295\] *And I beheld, and I heard the voice of many angels…* 296 Listen what a jubilee going on! When they seen that Lamb come and take that Book of Redemption, the souls screamed out (\[JBP\] and there on the left he writes): *\[WSS\] «**Jubilee**»*. We’ll get it. All, everything, the elders fell down. They poured out the prayers of the saints. What? There was represented a Kinsman for us. They fell upon their faces. And they sang a song, and said, “Thou art worthy, for You were slain!” Watch what…And look at these Angels! \[JBP\] There on the right, he writes, upwards: *\[WSS\] «**The prayers**».* \[296\] *And I beheld, and…heard the voice of many angels around about the throne and the beasts and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand time ten thousands,…of thousands;* (...) *Saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and honour, and glory, and blessings.* 297 What a jubilee going on in Heaven, when that Lamb leads, leaves that intercessory box, to come here to possess His claims (\[JBP\] on the right he writes): *\[WSS\] «**John = the Bride / Claim**»*! 298 You know, that got next to John. He must have saw his name wrote there. When them Seals broke, he must have got real happy. \[JBP\] He writes there, on the right as well: *\[WSS\] «**The name in the Book**».* In this one he writes, on the left: *\[WSS\] «**Jubilee**».* At the bottom: *\[WSS\] «**Future**»* (in that paragraph). *\[WSS\] «**John saw his name written in the Book**».* \[JBP\] Now look, if John, when that Book was opened in Heaven (and John represents the Church), and he got happy, filled with jubilee, because he saw his name there, what happens when that becomes manifested, materialized, on Earth, when that Book, that Seal, that Seventh Seal, is opened? The Church-Bride, the individual, automatically, the predestined one: sees his name there. How can he see it? Because he sees what John saw: he sees the Lion of the tribe of Judah, he sees the Lamb. Now notice, John saw a Lamb. The elder said: “The Lion of the tribe of Judah.” But notice, it is the same. Now, the Church-Bride sees Him in this dispensational interlace, She was seeing Him as a Lamb. Now, when He takes the Book and opens It, and brings It to the Earth and gives It to a man: the Church-Bride, through the revelation, sees that He is the Lamb —because it is the same Lord—, but with the revelation and the opening of the Seventh Seal, She understands that it is the Lion of the tribe of Judah. Now look, he goes on to say here: \[298\] Listen what he said. *And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and underneath the earth,…such as…within the sea, and all that…in them, is in them, heard me, I saying, Blessings,…honour,…glory,…power, be to him that sits upon the throne, and to the Lamb for ever…*(Amen! Amen, and amen! Oh!) *And the four beasts said, Amen. And the four and twenty elders fell down and worshipped him that lives for ever and ever.* 299 Talk about a jubilee (\[JBP\] and above he writes): *\[WSS\] «**50th Year of Jubilee**»*, talk about a time, when that Lamb walked forth! See, the Book is even sealed in Heaven, the mysteries are. 300 Say, “Is my name there?” I don’t know. I hope it is. But, if it is, it was put on the Book before the foundation of the world. 301 But the first thing, that represented that redemption, come the Lamb that had been slain from the foundation of the world. And He took the Book, (glory!) opened the Book, and tore off the Seals; and sent It down to the earth, to His seventh angel, to reveal It… \[JBP\] There he draws a Star of David; and an arrow towards the Cornerstone. And he writes on the left, in this one… Do you how it is being reflected in Reverend William Branham…? (seventh messenger of the seventh age of the gentile Church under the Dispensation of Grace), this which is happening here. And he writes there on the left: *\[WSS\] «**7th dispensational Angel**».* There comes the revelation from Above. Now, this happens to that seventh dispensational Angel Messenger. \[301\] … opened the Book, and tore off the Seals; and sent It down to the earth, to His seventh angel, to reveal It to His people (\[JBP\] now, if It is given to an angel messenger, that is because that messenger is in the midst of the Church-Bride)! There you are. Oh, my! What happened? The screams, the shouts, the hallelujahs, the anointed, the power, the glory, the manifestation! 302 And old John, who had been standing there, our brother, crying! “Why,” he said, “everything in Heaven, everything in the earth, and everything in the sea, heard me holler, ‘Amen! Amen! Blessings, honor, and might, and power, be to Him that lives for ever and ever.’” 303 Talk about a happy time, when them Seals broke! John must have looked in (\[JBP\] and above that he writes): *\[WSS\] «**into the Most Holy Place**»* and seen a past the curtain of time, and said, “There is John.” Oh, oh! \[JBP\] Which every elect of God has done at this time: he has looked beyond the curtain of time; and then he says: *“There I am!”* And mentions his name there: *“There I am!”* Because John already did it; and John represents, typifies, the Church-Bride. 304 He was so happy, till he said, “Everything in Heaven.” He must have really cried out, didn’t he? “Everything in Heaven, everything in the earth, everything beneath the earth, every creature, everything else, heard me saying, ‘Amen! Blessings, and glory, and wisdom, and power, and might, and riches, belongs to Him.’” Amen! 305 Why? When the revelation come… \[JBP\] And he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The revelation of the 2nd Coming**»* (above that). \[JBP\] Now, do you see when you can be certain that you are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life? When you have received the revelation of the Second Coming of the Lord, and you have received it. That automatically seals you, and gives you that assurance that you are there: written in the Lamb’s Book of Life. \[305\] When the revelation come, that the Lamb, the Redeemer, our Kinsman, had come back from the Throne of mediatorial and had walked out here to take His possession. Oh! \[JBP\] There on the left he writes, upwards: *\[WSS\] «**Jubilee**».* \[305\] Soon the Lamb will take His Bride to be ever at His side, All the host of Heaven will assembled be; Oh, it will be a glorious sight, all the saints in spotless white; And with Jesus we shall reign Eternally. Oh, “Come and dine,” the Master calleth, (on the Word), “Come and dine.” \[JBP\] And he writes on the left: *\[WSS\] «**The Master / The Supper**».* \[JBP\] Remember what we read yesterday, in the message: “WHO IS THIS MELQUISEDEC?” \[WMB\] “He is the Lord, and He is the Master.”\* \*\[Study “The incarnation of the Word in the children of God,” 15/Feb/2025 (Saturday), pp. \_\_-\_\_: 65-0221E - “Who Is This Melchisedec?” pp. 19-20, paras. 104-110\] \[Bible Study #490, 14-2/Feb/2025 (Friday), pp\_\_-\_\_: 61-0112 - “Questions And Answers,” p. 67, paras. 448-452\] 306 Oh, I—I—I get without words, see. “Come and dine, come and dine,” You can feast at Jesus’ table any time, (Now! But when He leaves, there is no hope.) He Who fed the multitude, turned the water into wine. \[JBP\] And on the right, upwards, he writes: *\[WSS\] «**He that believeth**».* 307 He that said, that, “He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also.” Oh, my! He that promised these things in the last days. He that said these things. He that’s now in the time of the revelation of these things being made known. “Come and dine.” Oh, don’t miss It, my brother. \[JBP\] There, on the right he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Rev. 19:1-10**».* And here he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Future - Supper**».* \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] In the message “THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK,” Dr. William Soto Santiago tells us, perched February 21, 2016, here in Cayey, Puerto Rico, it tells us: **THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK** *Dr. William Soto Santiago* *Sunday, February 21, 2016* *Cayey, Puerto Rico* Everything was simple back then and everything will be simple now too; but the complete revelation of the mystery of the Second Coming of Christ will be revealed in a Great Tent Cathedral that was shown to Reverend William Branham… \[JBP\] Where would the mystery of the Second Coming of the Lord be revealed, which is the Seventh Seal? In a Great Tent Cathedral. \[WSS\] … where the Angel of the Covenant who delivered the Hebrew people, who had appeared to Moses in a bush that burned but was not consumed, and said to him: “I am the God of your father (that is, the God of Amram; which shows that Amram was a believer in God), and the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob…” \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now, how did Reverend William Branham tell us that the revelation was coming to the people? How did he tell us that that revelation would come? It says on page 107 of the book of ***Quotations***, paragraph 929; it says: \[63-0728 - “Christ Is The Mystery Of God Revealed,” p. 28, paras. 198-199\] \[Bible Study #253, 6/Nov/2022 (Sunday), p. 29 / Bible Study #353, 22-2/Oct/2023 (Sunday), p. 45\] *929 - “\[198\] And the seer, how, the one you know is telling forth, he is Divinely vindicated by foreseeing, and it comes to pass. (...) There is the vindication, there where you know whether it’s the Truth or whether it isn’t.”* \[JBP\] Now, in the fulfillment of the Tent Vision, in that phase, in that - at that specific time when he went to that activity, that was one of the many activities that he went to or that he was allowed to go to, and he saw that manifestation there. Therefore, that \[was\] the vindication that everything that had happened before then was the fulfillment of what that ministry under the Tent was promised to be. Therefore, that Vision is showing us there: that everything else, outside that ministry under the Tent, is not of God; it is outside God’s perfect will. Because in that place where he went, there the ministry was fulfilling what was prophesied, what was spoken by the forerunner of the Second Coming of the Lord, which would be the Coming of the Lord to His Church, in the fulfillment of that Angel who was different from the rest bringing the Title Deed to His Church; and there we are already seeing the climax of that ministry. Therefore, we are already seeing that it is the only ministry that will reach the end; because it was seen —in vision— working, not only in favor of the Church-Bride, but in favor of the foolish virgins and of the Hebrew people as well. And he says that the Third Pull also includes the lost. Therefore, he was taken to the place where the Pillar of Fire was working in the midst of the people that whole time, and he went to that activity. As simple as that. Do you want to follow that ministry, which has already been shown to reach its climax at that activity? Well, you already know where to tune in. As simple as that! But, see how God starts everything progressively? And He gives us more and more light every time, until we reach that climax. Now, he continues to say: *929 - “199 God is speaking back through His Word, to His people, by people. See, God only speaks through man. ‘I am the Vine, ye are the branches’* (\[JBP\] above that he writes): *\[WSS\] «**branches**»**. The Vine doesn’t bear fruit. The branches talk* (\[JBP\] and he writes): *\[WSS\] «**the ages**»**, bears the fruit of the Vine. Notice, it’s always been that way.”* \[JBP\] And he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The Vine works through the branches**»*, towards the side, in that paragraph. And above that he writes: *\[WSS\] «**All revelation comes by a prophet**».* *\[WSS\] «**He who preaches, and it comes to pass, that is the vindication that he is a prophet**».* And in another line, he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The prophet: God only speaks through man**».* I’ll reread those writings from above: *\[WSS\] «**All revelation comes by a prophet**».* *«**He who preaches, and it comes to pass, that is the vindication that he is a prophet**».* *«**The prophet: God only speaks through man**».* \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Which he is speaking to us about here \[**“THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK SEALED”**\]: \[WSS\] … \[that\] the complete revelation of the Second Coming of Christ will be revealed in a Great Tent Cathedral… \[JBP\] And we already saw how God is going to reveal that. Brother Branham says that \[WMB\] “all revelation comes through a prophet.” \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now look, in ***The Seals***, on page 72 \[p. 86 in Eng. (The Breach…)\] of the book of *The Seals*, he tells us: “That’s the One that met the requirement…”; in… halfway down the page, a bit past the middle: 137 That’s the One met the requirement. Grace produced the Person of Jesus Christ. And we find, this Book now…God stretched His tent… \[JBP\] Above that paragraph he writes: *\[WSS\] «**God stretched His Tent**».* And on the right, upwards, he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The Tent**».* \[137\] … come from God, to become a Man. He changed His strain, from the Almighty, to be a Man; to take on the form of man, so He could die, to redeem man. Wait till we see Him, when there’s “nobody worthy.” See? All right. 138 In the Bible, in the Book of Ruth, as you read it, you’ll find out, such a person was called the “goel,” g-o-e-l. Was called the goel, or, it was a person that could meet the requirements. And the goel must be **able** to do it (\[JBP\] there he writes): *\[WSS\] «**1**»* (\[JBP\] on “able” he circles it and writes): *\[WSS\] «**1**»*, must be **willing** to do it (\[JBP\] and he writes): *\[WSS\] «**2**»* (\[JBP\] and he circles “willing”), and must be a kinsman, **next to kinsman**, to do it (\[JBP\] and he circles “next to kinsman” and writes): *\[WSS\] «**3**»*. 139 And God, the Creator, of Spirit, became kinfolks to us when He become man, in order that He could take our sin upon Him, and pay the price, and redeem us back to God again. There it is. There is the Redeemer. 140 Christ has redeemed us now. We are now redeemed. But He has not claimed His possession yet. \[JBP\] At the bottom he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The Claiming**».* Here in this book, on the left, in the margin he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Creator of spirits / Redeem us back**».* \[140\] Now, you might differ with that, but just hold on a minute, see. We’ll see. See? He hasn’t claimed it. See? If He took the Book of Redemption, everything that Adam had and everything that he lost, Christ redeems back. And He has already redeemed us. But He hasn’t took the possession yet; He cannot until the time appointed (\[JBP\] he writes): *\[WSS\] «**possession**»* (\[JBP\] on the right). And then will come the resurrection… \[JBP\] Above he writes, in the margin at the top: *\[WSS\] «**The time appointed**»*. *\[WSS\] «**The Book of Life = The Seven-Sealed Book**»*. And he also writes there: *\[WSS\] «**The Resurrection = in the Claim**»*. And that is in the Dispensation of the Kingdom. The resurrection couldn’t take place in the Dispensation of Grace. \[140\] And then will come the resurrection and then the earth will be renewed again. And then He’ll take possession, His possession which He got when He redeemed us, but will do it at the appointed time. Oh, my! 141 This is described in this Seven-Seal Book that we’re talking of now. All right. The Book of Redemption, it’s all described in here. All that what Christ will do at the end will be revealed to us this week (\[JBP\] and he writes): *\[WSS\] «**8th Day**»* (\[JBP\] above that), in the Seven Seals, if God will let us. See? All right. It will be revealed. And revealed, as the Seals break and are released to us, then we can see what this great plan of redemption is, and **when and how it’s going to be done**. It’s all hidden in this Book of mystery here. It’s sealed, got up with Seven Seals, and so the Lamb is the only One Who can break them. (…) \[JBP\] There on the right he writes: *\[WSS\] «**We can understand**»*. And on the left, upwards, in two sentences he writes: *\[WSS\] «**What Christ will do (in the end) is explained in the Seals**»*. 143 Now, (...) in Jeremiah and find out there. When he was—when he—he was going into the captivity of the land, you know, he—he bought his uncle (…) and he went through that, sealing. (...) We got that also in the Seven Church Ages, them seals and so forth, in there. 144 You see, a seal, in the Old Testament, was like a roll, like *this*. And *here* was a mystery, and this mystery was hidden. All right, it was sealed around and put here, the claim to *so-and-so*. Then, the next mystery was wrapped around what this inheritance was, and stuck out here on this side, the—the—the claim to *so-and-so*. \[JBP\] And there on the left he draws a Star of David. And here, in this one, he draws a Cornerstone and the ages on the right. And where he says: “and how it’s going to be done,” an arrow towards the Cornerstone there. That is in the previous paragraph, the drawing that I just mentioned to you. \[144\] And went on down until it made a scroll, because people didn’t have books like *this* then. It was in a roll, (how many knows that?) called a scroll. Well, a sealed scroll… \[JBP\] Look, see if you can find…, there is a place, now that I remembered, where he drew on the left (we have mentioned it) a small scroll, and he drew some seals on it; it must be in this blue one. See if you can find that drawing, so that the children can also see it; because they know very well what a book is, but maybe a scroll and how it was back then…, uh…, let’s see if we can find it quickly. I don’t know if it was *this* one. While they find it, if it’s *this* one, or there may be another one…; I knew it was in this book, look, let’s see if we can… we can do it quickly. Uh… In the time of Paul, or of the angel messengers, if there had been this technology, it would have been easier for them; but they, the way that God gave them to carry out the Work, well, that was the best way. Now, well, we thank God for technology, which, in a Work like this, that is so quick, well, we use all of that in favor of the Work. Look to see if it’s visible there \[the photo is projected on the screen –Ed\]. I don’t know if there is another one, a blue one, where he drew it but all together, and a little ribbon coming out of each…, as if it were out of the scroll; but this is the one I found quickly (here in this book), and it is in, that drawing, so that… Ah, there’s the page: 194 of *The Seals*, it’s there at the top; and in that paragraph he writes there: *\[WSS\] «**The 7 scrolls**»*. That is, a bit below, there in the next paragraph. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Look, there, if we turn there for a moment, to 194 \[p. 224 in Eng. (Third Seal)\], look at what he says there \[***The Seals***\]: 27 And now we find that the Lamb comes out, takes the Book out of the hand of Him that sat upon the Throne, and breaks the Seals, and—and loose…and looses That, looses the Seals to the people (\[JBP\] there on the left, he writes): *\[WSS\] «**He opened the Seals to revealed them to the people, to His Church**»*. 28 And the four Beasts sitting there, that we took in the church ages, the same four Beasts, you see them all the way through the Scripture, and they are the One Who does the announcing of these Seals being broke. Now, and we see it is a—a Book of Redemption. 29 Then we went back and got the—the Kinsman Redeemer, and picked Him up, to see what His work was. And now for all these years, Christ has been doing the Kinsman Redeemer work. Now, all that understands that, say, “Amen.” \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now, he continues saying here: on page 73 \[p. 87 in Eng. (The Breach…)\], where we paused, halfway through that paragraph \[***The Seals***\]: \[144\] … a sealed scroll, you could break loose one *here*, what the mystery of this was, and tear it loose, and you could see what that claim was. And then break the other one loose, and you can see what that claim was. 145 And the whole thing Here is Seven Seals, got the mysteries of God from the foundation of the world… \[JBP\] And he writes on the right, upwards: *\[WSS\] «**The mysteries of God**».* And on the left he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Jubilee / The mysteries from the foundation**».* \[145\] … all sealed up in There, and revealed by seven different Seals, that, if God willing, let Him let us pull back these Seals and look down through the Book and find out what’s It all about. See? Oh, I hope we have a great time! There the mystery of redemption is sealed until…This Book could not be broken until the last angel’s Message. 146 The scroll is there. We knowed It was there. We know that It was redemption. We believed It was redemption. Jeremiah said, “This scroll must be kept…” As you read it there, he’ll say. He must be kept in a earthly vessel. See? Oh, what a beautiful thing there… \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] In Corinthians is where it says, look (if you can find where It says: “In an earthly vessel…”). Jeremiah is the one that brother Branham mentions there, there it tells us… (while they find that other Scripture): Jeremiah, chapter 32, verses 14: **Jeremiah 32:14** *14 Thus saith the Lord of hosts, the God of Israel; Take these evidences, this evidence of the purchase, both which is sealed, and this evidence which is open; and put them in an earthen vessel, that they may continue many days.* \[JBP\] And look, there he draws a Star of David on the right. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Second Corinthians. Let’s turn to Second Corinthians, chapter 4; verse 7 says: **2 Corinthians 4:7** *7 But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.* \[JBP\] And there he also draws a Star of David on the right. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now look, he continues to say \[***The Seals***\] \[P. 88\]: \[146\] Oh, what a beautiful thing there… \[JBP\] There on the left he writes: *\[WSS\] «**An earthly vessel**»*. \[146\] Oh, what a beautiful thing there I could talk about, a while. \[JBP\] Let’s see here for a brief moment, in this book, to go along with… with what he wrote to us here. Yes, in this one, look, where it says: \[146\] Jeremiah said, “This scroll must be kept…” (...) He must be kept in a earthly vessel. \[JBP\] Above that he writes: *\[WSS\] «**in Jesus**»*. And on the right, where he says: \[146\] This scroll was kept in an earthly vessel… \[JBP\] There on the right, he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Rev. 10:1-11**».* \[146\] Oh, what a beautiful thing there I could talk about, a while. This scroll was kept in an earthly vessel, a vessel that once became flesh (glory!), died, rose again, and kept in a earthly vessel until the time of the purchase. Oh, my! Beautifully! All right. 147 Now, these Messages are all kept up until, this **earthly** vessel (\[JBP\] and he writes): *\[WSS\] «**flesh**»* (\[JBP\] above “earthly”), until the time of God’s appointed time, at the last messenger at the earth. And all that these people had judged at, and said, “I know It’s there. I believe It’s there.” And they fought at It, and brought It forth and produced the things. By faith they believed It. But now It’s going to be brought to us in revelation, and from the hand of God by vindication. God said so. He promised it. 148 Now, now let’s see. Where, where was we at? Let’s go to verse 2 now. That’s a long time for verse 1, but let—let’s—let’s take verse 2. Now, we probably won’t stay that long on the next one. *And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open…book, and to loose the seals thereof?* \[JBP\] There he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The Book of…**»*. 149 Now, remember. Let’s read the 1st verse again, so we get it together. …*I saw in the right hand of him that sat upon the throne…* 150 God! Who is that? The absolutely original Holder of the Book of Life. He holds It. God does. When Adam forfeited, It went back to Its original Owner. It belongs to Him. *And John* (in the vision) *looked over and saw in the right hand of him that sat upon the throne a—a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.* \[JBP\] There on the left he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Adam**»*. And he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The Book of Life = The Seals**»*. And on the right he also writes the same thing: *\[WSS\] «**Book of Life = The Seals**»*. Together with that little part that he had written: *\[WSS\] «**The Book of…**»*, then he wrote that, further down. 151 See, inside! Now, when we go to breaking these Seals, you’re going to see, It goes plumb back in the Scripture, all the way back, for each one of those Seals. The whole thing, together, the whole mystery, lays right here in these Seals (\[JBP\] and he draws a Star of David on the left). And the Seals cannot be broken until that time. \[JBP\] And there in… (one, two, three, four) in four lines, upwards, he writes: *\[WSS\] «**All the / mysteries / of the Bible / lay in the Seals**».* *\[WSS\] «**All the mysteries of the Bible lay in the Seals**».* And in *this* one he draws a Star of David on the left, as well. \[151\] The whole thing, together, the whole mystery, lays right here in these Seals. See? Every mystery of the Bible lays in these Seals. And the Seals cannot be broken until that time. I prove it here, just in a minute. 152 Notice. Now, the Book, remember, is sealed. Here is one, here It is, this seal. Then another One is wrapped, a Seal. Another One is wrapped, a Seal. It’s a Book of Redemption. And the whole thing, together, makes the Book, and It’s sealed with Seven Seals. And, then, it’s on the backside, is because it’s wound up. The Seal mystery is on the inside. And It only says, “The white-horse rider,” or, “The black-horse rider,” and what-more, on the outside. But the mystery of the whole Book is in them Seals, from Genesis to Revelation. The complete plan of redemption is revealed in these Seven Seals. Oh, it’s an important time. God help us to get It! See? \[JBP\] And there on the right, upwards, he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The Plan of Redemption**».* 153 Now, “And a strong angel…” Now verse 2. …*the strong angel,* with a loud voice, proclaiming, *Who is worthy…*(Worthy for what?) *Who is worthy to take that book,…* 154 Now we find out. Where is the Book at now? To Its original Owner, because It has been forfeited by a son, the first son of God, in a human race. And when he forfeit his rights, to listen to Satan, he give up…What did he do? He accepted Satan’s wisdom instead of God’s Word. Now, couldn’t we stop here a while! Sons of God will take a seminary’s idea about It, instead of the Word of God. See, same thing Adam did, forfeited his rights. And when it did, it went right straight back. Can’t you see where those ages has been? See? Went right straight back to the original holder. 155 And John, in the Spirit, standing up here in Heaven. He’s just been lifted up now, from the church ages, see, saw the church ages. And then he was taken up, in the 4th chapter. He said, “Come up higher. I’m going to show you things that will come.” 156 And he saw One sitting upon the Throne, with this Book in His hand, in His right hand. Think of it, now. \[JBP\] There on the left he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Rev. 4**».* (And, on the left: *«**Revelation 4**»*). And on the right, he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The Rapture – Rev. 4**».* \[156\] And, then, in this Book was a title deed to redemption, and It was sealed with Seven Seals. 157 And then an Angel came forth, a strong Angel, proclaiming with a loud voice, “Who was worthy to open the Book; to take the Book? Who was able to open the Seals? Who was able to open this Book?” See, the Angel asked it. John saw it. And He said, “Now, who is worthy? Let Him…” Oh, my! Maybe I’m just feeling this, this a way. “But let Him,” said the Angel, “let Him…” *Here* is the Book of Redemption! *Here* is the plan of redemption! *Here* is the only way you’ll ever be redeemed, for *here* is the title deed to redemption of the whole heavens and earth (\[JBP\] and there on the left, upwards, in two sentences, he writes): *\[WSS\] «**the Deed of the Heavens and the Earth**»*! “Let Him come forward, if He will.” Oh, my! “Now speak, or forever hold His peace. Let Him come forward and claim this Book. Who is worthy to do it?” 158 And John said: There was *no man in heaven* found worthy; no man on *earth* found worthy; no man beneath *the earth*, that ever lived and died, was found worthy. No man was found worthy. 159 The Angel’s call was a call for the Kinsman Redeemer to appear. God said, “I have a law; a Kinsman Redeemer can—can be a substitute. Where is that Kinsman Redeemer? Who is able to take It?” 160 And it come from Adam, all the way down through all the apostles, and prophets, and everything else, and nobody was found. Now, what about that? “Nobody in Heaven, nobody on earth, nobody that ever lived.” Elijah was standing there. Moses was standing there. All the apostles were standing there, or—or all the ones that had died; all the holy men, Job, the sages. Every one was standing there, and nobody was worthy even to look at the Book… \[JBP\] Now notice, Elijah was there, Moses was there; and he says that at the end time he would send the ministry of Elijah and the ministry of Moses. It’s not that He is going to send them in the bodies where that ministry operated, but rather the ministry that operated in them will come. \[160\] Every one was standing there, and nobody was worthy even to look at the Book, let alone take It and break the Seals. 161 Now where is the pope and all these come in at? Where is your bishop? Where is our worthiness? We’re nothing. That’s right. 162 He asked for the Kinsman Redeemer to step forward, if He could. But John said, “No man was worthy.” 163 Not that there wasn’t worthy people there, now, like an Angel; like, for instance, we would say, Gabriel, or Michael. \[JBP\] And he writes on the left, upwards: *\[WSS\] «**Gabriel and Michael**».* And on the right, here in this one as well, he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Gabriel, Michael**».* \[163\] But, remember, it had to be a Kinsman. Remember, John said here, “And no m-a-n,” not Angel, not Seraphim. They hadn’t sinned, but They were in a different category. They had never fallen. 164 But this had to be a Kinsman Redeemer. “No man,” ’cause there was none of them redeemed. \[JBP\] Above he writes: *\[WSS\] «**There was no redeemed man in an eternal body, everything was lost and John wept**».* That’s at the top: *\[WSS\] «**There was no redeemed man in an eternal body, everything was lost and John wept**».* \[164\] “No man,” ’cause there was none of them redeemed. “No man was worthy to look at It.” Oh, no! My, my! So, it took a human Kinsman. And he asked for it, and He wasn’t found, nowhere. There was nobody. No bishop, no archbishop, no priest, no hierarchy, no nothing was even…didn’t even have the holiness enough to even look at the Book. Whew! My, my! That’s pretty strong, but that’s what the Bible said. I’m just quoting what John said. The Bible said that John “wept.” \[JBP\] Here, in this other one, in that previous paragraph, he draws a Star of David. He also writes: *\[WSS\] «**Redeemed man**».* 165 Not as some people has taught it. I was hearing a man teach this one time, said, “John wept because that he found himself not worthy.” Oh! Any man under the Holy Spirit would know different from that, see; under the inspiration of God, would know different from that. 166 But, John “wept.” Here is what I think he wept for. Because, if no one was worthy and could open this Book of Redemption, the whole creation was lost. 167 \[So was the situation.\] That’s God’s Own law, and He can’t defile His law, can’t defy His law, rather. See? \[JBP\] Here he writes: *\[WSS\] «**John wept / Everything lost**».* And he also draws a Star of Daivd there on the left. \[167\] God required a Kinsman Redeemer Who was worthy, Who was able to do it, Who had the substance to do it. 168 And the Angel said, “Now let that Kinsman Redeemer step forward.” 169 And John looked. And he looked all over the earth. He looked beneath the earth. And there was nobody. There, creation and the everything was lost. Of course, John wept. Everything was lost (\[JBP\] and on the right he draws a Star of David). 170 His crying didn’t last but just a minute, though. Then there stood one of the elders, said, “Don’t weep, John.” Oh, my! His crying didn’t last but just a minute. 171 John thought, “Oh, my, where is the Man? There stands the prophets; they was born like I was. There stands the sages. There stands…Oh, ain’t there nobody here?” \[JBP\] There on the left, upwards, he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Everything was lost unless the Kinsman Redeemer appeared: a human being**».* \[JBP\] Now we’re starting to see where it’s going… What is God’s purpose in taking the Book? Who is going to receive It? Who are the ones here on Earth that will receive It? All of us! Now look: 172 “I want a Man that’s able to do it. I want a Man that can redeem.” 173 And he wasn’t found, so John broke out. Oh, everything was lost; and he wept bitterly. \[JBP\] I skipped the paragraph here, where he also wrote: in this previous paragraph, look, he writes on the left there…; of course, the - your margin is probably already full, but you can write it there on the right. He writes: *\[WSS\] «**Creation was lost. John wept**».* And he draws a Cornerstone and the ages, and he draws a Star of David. Look, he goes on to say: 172 “I want a Man that’s able to do it. I want a Man that can redeem.” 173 And he wasn’t found, so John broke out. Oh, everything was lost; and he wept bitterly. And he—he was sad, ’cause everything, the whole creation, everything was gone, if they couldn’t find somebody (\[JBP\] and there he draws a Star of David on the right). Glory to God! If they couldn’t find somebody that can meet that requirements, there…every human being, and the whole world and creation, was gone. Oh, everything had fallen. The—the—the rights of redemption, the rights of—of Eternal Life, the Light, all these rights had been forfeited, and there was nobody who could pay the price. And John starts crying, ’cause no one was worthy, and no one could even look at the Book. Oh, it took a human being (\[JBP\] and he draws a Star of David on the left). John wept, because no one could do it, and everything was lost. \[JBP\] It’s good for you to see this now (that’s best), so you can see how he is framing this here; and there you can see, just based on this, what he is trying to tell us there, in that portion that we just read; notice, the way in which he puts this here, together with what he wrote on the left \[the picture is projected on the screen –Ed.\], together with the meaning of those Two Olive Trees. I don’t know if you can see or distinguish it there. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now, let’s turn for a moment here to the edited book of *The Ages*… (correction) the unedited version, this thick one, unedited (I have the booklet here, which is where he wrote to us), on page 663 (here in the booklet it is page 27), there on paragraph 132 (here it starts the same, on the same paragraph). In the booklet it is page 27, in the book it is 663) \[“**REVELATION, CHAPTER FIVE #1”**\]: \[61-0611 - “Revelation, Chapter Five #1,” pp. 21-23, paras. 131-144\] \[Bible Study #293, 26/Mar/2023 (Sunday), pp. 15-18 (PARAS. 130-135)\] 131 Say, for instance, if I owned a piece of property and I lost it, and I sold it over to Brother Neville which is of another tribe, of Judah, or maybe sold it to an alien. And he rightfully owned it, he owned it, he could come in there and farm it and take the goods off of it, and so forth, but really he just held the deed (\[JBP\] he draws on the left a Star of David). “He could not own it,” that was a law in Israel. Now you read in—read in Leviticus 25, and you’ll see that they could not rightfully own it (\[JBP\] and above that he writes): *\[WSS\] «**they didn’t have the Title Deed**»*; he just held it. 132 Well, now, for instance, my son wanted…Billy, back there, wanted to take my…come buy this ground. Well, then, if the alien or Brother Neville or—or some other person owned it, was holding the deed to it (\[JBP\] above that he writes): *\[WSS\] «**usufruct**»*…Now, if this was my next kinsman, was my blood relation, he could not hold it any longer. No, sir. He had to give it over, yes, sir, when that price was paid, when he gave him, say, twenty-five thousand dollars for the piece of property. \[JBP\] Now, at the top here in the book, in the booklet, he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The Lamb’s Book of Life**». «**A title, a deed that is usufructuary, but not the Title Deed, which is the Book of the Seven Seals**».* 133 Well, then, say, Brother Tony would come over and say, “Brother Neville, I’ll buy Brother Branham’s property.” He couldn’t do it. Brother Neville say, “No, sir, I don’t want to sell it.” “Well, what’d you give for it?” “Twenty-five thousand.” “Well, I’ll—I’ll give you thirty-five thousand. I’ll give you *so-and-so*.” “I don’t care what you want. I don’t want to sell it, I’ll keep it.” 134 But Billy Paul could come along and say, “I want my Daddy’s possession, here’s your twenty-five thousand.” He had to let it go (\[JBP\] on the left he draws a Star of David). That’s right, because that was a law. 135 Oh, Hallelujah! Hmm! I hope you Christians see it. We are the salt of the earth. God gave this to His sons. He gave us the jurisdiction over all nature, all animals, all life everywhere. \[JBP\] He draws a Star of David on the left. And on the right, upwards, he writes, in two lines: *\[WSS\] «**The inheritance of the children of God / in the Year of Jubilee**».* *\[WSS\] «**The inheritance of the children of God in the Year of Jubilee**».* \[135\] But Adam, our father, forfeit it to Satan. But where does it fall back? To the rightful Owner, God Who made it. Amen! \[Bible Study #230, 19/Aug/2022 (Friday), pp. 5-7 (PARAS. 136-142)\] 136 No wonder John said he “wept bitterly,” for he could find no man who was worthy to redeem it. The man must be worthy. John said, “I wept bitterly when no one was able to take the Book or to look on It or loose the seals thereof.” He said, “Not…No man in Heaven, no man in earth, no man beneath the earth, no man everywhere.” 137 “No man.” Now, he never disregarded Angels (\[JBP\] there he writes on the left): *\[WSS\] «**Gabriel**»*. Remember, this earth wasn’t given to Angels. It’s the inheritance of man. Gabriel was worthy, sure; somebody else was worthy, Michael might have been. Not as…He might have been worthy to do it. But there was no man worthy. See? And John wept loud. \[JBP\] On the left he writes: *\[WSS\] «**John wept**».* 138 Someone said, “Because he found himself not worthy.” That isn’t so. The man was under the influence of the Holy Ghost, he couldn’t make an error like that. But he—he was…he—he was—he was…It wasn’t him not only worthy, he could find nobody worthy. 139 So just then he said, “A elder came forth or a strong angel, said, ‘Weep not, for the Lion of the tribe of Juda,’” (Amen!) “‘the Root of David, He has prevailed!’” Amen! “‘Conquered,’” in other words. “‘He’s worthy to take the Book!’” Amen. \[JBP\] On the left he draws a Star of David. And he writes, upwards: *\[WSS\] «**The root of David**».* 140 Remember, he hadn’t seen Him up to this time. Why? He was setting on a…seated on a Throne in there, God’s Throne. He was on the inside of the sanctuary (\[JBP\] and he writes): *\[WSS\] «**The Most Holy Place**»*. He hadn’t seen Him to this time, so John was expecting to see a—a Lion come forth, but he saw a Lamb! \[JBP\] And on the left he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Most Holy Place, 7th dimension**».* 141 There you are, brothers. Through meekness, through sweetness, through the Holy Spirit that we conquer. Not some great mighty intellectual giant, but he that can humble himself is the man who conquers. The man who can be kicked around and still be a servant of Christ, that’s the conqueror. \[JBP\] And above that paragraph he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The Conqueror — The Lion: a man**».* 142 Now, he said, “He has prevailed. And He is worthy to take the Book and to open it and to loose the seals thereof.” \[JBP\] On the right he draws a Cornerstone and the ages. 142 Now, he said, “He has prevailed. And He is worthy to take the Book and to open it and to loose the seals thereof.” 143 Now, we’re going to find out after while, maybe not in today, but what these seven seals hold, what they did. 144 Now, let’s take a little bit on “redemption.” Before—before this person could be…could redeem, the first thing, he had to be worthy (\[JBP\] first he had to be what? Worthy), he had to be the right kind of person. So this was accomplished when Jesus Christ was born, a virgin birth, for He was God. \[JBP\] And we have been born again. Now, follow along with him: \[144\] He was God Himself made a man, He was God in human flesh. He had to be worthy; and the virgin Blood (\[JBP\] and he writes): *\[WSS\] «**birth**»* of Jesus Christ made Him worthy. Now, we find that, if you want to go to the Scripture of it, of First Peter 1:18 to 20, if you’re keeping the Scriptures down. He had to be worthy. \[JBP\] He writes there, upwards, on the left: *\[WSS\] «**He had Divine Blood, like Adam**».* \[JBP\] Now, with the new birth, you already know which Blood runs through you. \[144\] And He was, because He took upon Him the form of man. He became man, God became kinfolks to us. And there we find then the beautiful part of God Jehovah made flesh and dwelt among us as the worthy One. \[JBP\] Now notice, He was worthy to take the Book because He became man. And we are worthy because we came to this planet Earth in this body and we were born again. Now, where does the Book go? He was worthy in Heaven, in the seventh dimension: He came forward in that glorified body and He was able to take the Book. He was found worthy. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now look, in the book of ***The Seals***, on page 114 \[p. 133 in Eng. (First Seal)\], let’s turn there, where the Scriptures will lead to a certain place here; look (in *this* book as well, let’s leave it open here), page 114 at the bottom: 148 And, notice, the First Seal opened. The First Seal, when It was opened in the symbol form, it thundered. Now what about when It’s opened in Its reality form? My…It thundered as soon as the Lamb struck back the Seal. And what did It reveal? Not all of Itself. First, It’s with God; next, It’s in a symbol; then, It’s revealed. Three things. See? It’s coming forth from the Throne. 149 First, It can’t be seen, heard, or nothing. It’s sealed up. The Lamb’s Blood paid the price. 150 It thundered when He spoke It out. And when He did, a white-horse rider started out, and It still was a symbol (\[JBP\] there he writes): *\[WSS\] «**symbol**»*. Now watch, He said It would be known in the last day. But It comes forth in a church symbol. Do you understand it, church? \[Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.\] It comes forth in a—a symbol of a church, that they know there is a Seal. But just what It is, yet, they don’t know, because It’s a white-horse rider. 151 And only is to be revealed at the last day, when this actual Seal is broken. Broken to who? Not to Christ, but to the Church. \[JBP\] And he writes there, at the top: *\[WSS\] «**When the actual Seal is broken**».* Which Seal? The Seventh Seal. And he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The Book of the 7 Seals opened to the Church**».* In other words… Look, he also writes the same thing here: *\[WSS\] «**The Seals broken, not to Christ, but to the Church**».* And there in that paragraph, at the end, he draws a Star of David on the left. And here he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Future**».* He also draws a Star of David, and a Cornerstone and the ages. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now, if he was found worthy, then the ones who are receiving that Title Deed are worthy as well! Now, where does it say…? In Luke, chapter 21, let’s see, where it says that “may we be accounted worthy;” chapter 21 of Luke, verse 34, look, it says: **Luke 21:34** *34 And take heed to yourselves, lest at any time your hearts be overcharged with surfeiting, and drunkenness, and cares of this life, and so that day come upon you unawares.* *35 For as a snare shall it come on all them that dwell on the face of the whole earth.* *36 Watch ye therefore, and pray always, that ye may be accounted worthy to escape all these things that shall come to pass, and to stand before the Son of man.* \[JBP\] We have been accounted worthy for Him to reveal these mysteries to us and to make known to us the mystery of His Coming! \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now look, he continues saying here in the unedited book of **“THE AGES,”** (I’m on paragraph 149) \[**“REVELATION, CHAPTER FIVE #1”**\]: \[61-0611 - “Revelation, Chapter Five #1,” pp. 23-24, paras. 145-147\] 145 “He prevailed.” God took on the form of human flesh, He came to the earth, was born a little baby and walked among us. And through His holy Blood He prevailed. 146 Now, in the Old Testament, how a man was to proclaim his own, what did he do? He took an elder, ten elders, and went to the gate and introduced what he was doing, to redeem what he had been lost, and showed who he was, and he was give a witness. We find the beautiful story here (As I had a little note wrote here to…so I wouldn’t forget it, being nervous this morning.) upon Ruth, the kinsman and Boaz. We went through it not long ago. I want you to notice the three stages now of this resting. 147 I want you to notice the resting of the Church, just exactly the same thing. Now, watch. The first place we find, as we’ve all been through that sermon, *The Kinsman Redeemer*, God was made flesh in order to become the Redeemer. He was the One here in the 5th chapter—in the 5th chapter. Said… \[JBP\] There on the left he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Rev. 5 = claiming Voice**».* And below, here he writes: *\[WSS\] «**God made flesh = the Kinsman Redeemer**».* \[147\] …in the 5th chapter. Said: *And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.* *And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open the Book or to read—or to read the book, neither to look thereon.* *And one of the elders said unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, has prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.* He’s the One, He’s that One we’re looking at. \[JBP\] And he writes on the right: *\[WSS\] «**The Lion**».* And above he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Naomi — Israel* *Ruth — the Bride* *Boaz — Christ**».* He also writes there: *\[WSS\] «**Elimelech**».* \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now, let’s continue here, where we paused, from the book of ***The Seals***, we were on page… 76 was it? 76; already at the bottom there; he says \[P. 91\]: 174 And there came a voice from one of the elders, standing in midst the four Beasts and all that great host of Heaven, said, “Don’t weep, John.” Oh, my! \[175\] Grace of God! 176 “Don’t be brokenhearted, John. Don’t weep. For the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root and Offspring from David, He has prevailed.” \[JBP\] At the bottom, on the right, on page 76, he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The Lion**».* And he draws a Star of David. And at the top, on 77, above, he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Root and offspring of David**».* On 76 here, he writes at the bottom: *\[WSS\] «**One of the 24 elders**».* Now, he continues to say: 177 *Prevail* means “wrestle with, and overcome.” Oh, my! The garden of Gethsemane, when Blood dropped down out of His face, He was overcoming (\[JBP\] although it seemed the most terrible, the most difficult thing, for Jesus, He was overcoming there). (...) 178 “The Lion, and the Root of David, has prevailed, has overcome.” \[JBP\] And there on the left he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Lion**».* \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now, he continues saying here, in this message that we began reading, of “THE TITLE DEED IN THE HANDS OF THE HUMAN RACE” **“THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK”**; he goes on to say: \[WSS\] (…) The Book of the Seven Seals or seven-sealed Book, is the Lamb’s Book of Life, where the names of all the believers in Christ who would form His Church are written; they have been written there before the foundation of the world. There is also the section called the Book of Life, which some people can be blotted out from, but those people are not God’s chosen ones, God’s born-again elect. Those people… \[JBP\] Notice, they can be written in the Book of Life without having been born again. \[WSS\] Those people are in the other section called the Book of Life; the same Book but with another section. Those who blaspheme the Holy Spirit are blotted out from there, which are the ones who attribute to the devil the works that God does in different times, and especially at this end time. \[JBP\] In other words, they are the ones who do that at this end time, and attribute what is happening in a Great Tent Cathedral to the devil, saying that he is an impostor, that he is an usurper, and all those things; these people are categorized here… \[WSS\] For example (\[JBP\] notice, the same thing happened in the time of Jesus), when they told Jesus that He was Beelzebub and that He casted out devils by the finger of Beelzebub, they were blaspheming Jesus, in whom the Holy Spirit was incarnate. But Christ says: “When the Holy Spirit comes (which came on the Day of Pentecost to His Church), whoever blasphemes against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, neither in this world, nor in the world to come.” \[Matthew 12:31-32\] In other words, he will not be forgiven back in the time of the Day of Pentecost nor in the Dispensation of Grace, nor will he be forgiven at any time; in other words, he already crossed the line between mercy and grace, and there is no longer an opportunity for that person. \[JBP\] And they start to say and to joke about that: “The mockers, the mockers.” Keep making those little jokes… Those people are categorized there! \[WSS\] And those who mistreat the children of God will also be blotted out of that section, if they are in that section. They may be part of the foolish virgins; and if they are foolish, well, there are foolish people who, like the foolish virgins, didn’t take oil, didn’t take the Holy Spirit, they make mistakes; and a mistake of that kind will cost them their name being blotted out of the Book of Life. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now look in the edited book of ***The Ages***: on page 422, Reverend Willliam Branham tells us… From this other one…, here it’s…, let’s see here…, here it’s 426, he says: “Now watch…” I’m not sure if it’s on the same page, where it starts \[p. 371 in Eng.\]: Now watch this doctrine of Balaam most carefully. Notice above all, that it is the deliberate maneuver of a corrupt clergy to bind the people to them… \[JBP\] If you can confirm the page so that they have the same one…, where he starts to say: \[WMB\] “Now watch this doctrine of Balaam most carefully.” Here it’s 422. Is it that? It’s 419 in yours then, so that you can follow along; 419. *Here* it’s another page as well. Now watch this doctrine of Balaam most carefully. Notice above all, that it is the deliberate maneuver of a corrupt clergy to bind the people to them, by leading the people deliberately into the sin of unbelief. The Nicolaitane doctrine was the corruption of the clergy as they sought political power amongst themselves, while Balaamism is the subjection of the people to their system of creed and worship in order to hold them. Now watch this carefully. What was it that bound the people to the nominal church and thereby destroyed them? It was the creeds and dogmas formed into church tenets. It was the doctrine of the Roman Catholic Church. They were not given the true food, the Word. They were given the food that came from idol worship, Babylonian paganism wrapped up in Christian terminology. And that very same spirit and doctrine is right amongst all Protestants and it is called DENOMINATION. Nicolaitanism is organization, humanizing the leadership of the church, and thereby deposing the Spirit. Balaamism is denominationalism which takes the church manual instead of the Bible. And right to this hour, many of God’s people are caught in the snare of denominationalism and God is crying to them, *“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) You see they are ignorant. But if the rapture should take place at this moment, ignorance would be no court of appeal from the judgment of God for being in the wrong ranks. \[JBP\] In other words, you should know what path you are on and whose ranks you are in, who your leader is. Our Leader is the Holy Spirit! But when you have another leader instead of the Holy Spirit, then you are on this road, on this path, in these ranks. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now look, there is a message that Dr. William Soto Santiago preached to us, on… (let’s see here), in 2009, February 21, 2009, São Paulo, Brazil, “THE ONE WHO REVEALS SECRET THINGS” he says: \[Message from Sunday’s study, February 9, 2025\] **THE ONE WHO REVEALS SECRET THINGS** **(Ministers’ Meeting)** *Dr. William Soto Santiago* *Saturday, February 21, 2009* *São Paulo, Brazil* \[P. 11\] It’s just like when a person sees that they post negative things on the internet about someone else, and then they call other people, the news spreads to other people, and they tell them: “Go to such-and-such page and look at everything they’re \[doing\] saying against So-and-so;” and they call many friends, and that page becomes the main page. And when they type - they write that person’s name, the first page that appears is that one: all the negative things they speak about him; and that is harmful to the person. Ignorance doesn’t free the person of responsibility. Ignorant people are fools, and fools have no promise of blessing. Notice Lot’s wife: God had told them to not look back, and she looked; \[Genesis 19:17-26\] that didn’t exempt her of responsibility. God didn’t have to tell her what would happen if she looked. When God says something, whether He explains what will happen or not, it will happen. He had explained to Adam that if he ate of the tree of knowledge of good and evil: he would die; but He didn’t explain it to Eve; Adam was the one who then explained it to her; because God explained it to Adam when Adam was in his heavenly body. \[JBP\] Now, notice how dangerous it is to be in the enemy’s ranks. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now notice, he continues to say here, in **“THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK”**: \[WSS\] The idolaters as well. Anyone who turns to idolatry, if his name is written there, it will also be blotted out; unless he repents on time: if he is in idolatry and comes to the Feet of Christ, then he obtains mercy, even if he ends up belonging to the section of the foolish virgins in the Book of Life. And for those who, like Judas Iscariot…, who was written in the section of the Book of Life, not in the section of the Lamb’s Book of Life. There will also be Judases who will rise up against the Coming of the Lord at the Last Day, and who will fight against the Coming of the Lord (\[JBP\] and it doesn’t have to be a minister; that represents ministers and people too), as the Scripture says in Revelation, chapter 19; they will also go through the same situation as Judas Iscariot: they will lose the opportunity of eternal life, just as Judas Iscariot lost it. So, we can see that the Book of Life, which is the Book of the Seven Seals, has those sections: one, of those who can never be lost (\[JBP\] all of us are there: the section of the Lamb’s Book of Life), because they are the seed of God, the elect of God, the firstborn written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life, who would hear the Word, the divine revelation, the Message relevant to the time in which they would be given to live; which would come from God by His Spirit through the messenger of each age. It is always that way. Anyone may say: “I received the Message of the messenger Noah and I am building an ark.” That time has already passed. And if he had been there he wouldn’t have helped Noah either, because he is trying to do it here in a time that’s not the time for Noah’s ark. He has to be in the Age, with the Message relevant to that Age, given by the Holy Spirit through the instrument that He has for that time. As simple as that. With that Message, God will open the Scriptures to you and your understanding so that you understand; and you will be able to hear in your hearts and in your ears the words that Jesus said to Peter: “Flesh and blood has not revealed It to you, but My Father which is in Heaven.” \[Matthew 16:17\] \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Look, there’s a place here, where brother Branham… It’s here in Spanish, but big; it’s also here in English; but look, here on page of… this is the message **“THE EASTER SEAL,”** notice what brother Branham tells us here: page 22 of the message: “THE EASTER SEAL,” he says: \[65-0410 - “The Easter Seal,” p. 19, para. 125\] *125 Notice. God’s Life, which is in the Greek called Zoe, moving through them and in them, quickened their minds to His Word* (\[JBP\] he draws a Star of David on the right, and one on the left)*. Now, let me say it real quietly now. The Spirit of God that moves among the people, quickens the mind of the person to the promise of God. See? It does it.* \[JBP\] And notice the writing that he puts there: *\[WSS\] «**He quickens the mind to the promised Word**».* \[JBP\] The Holy Spirit, notice there: “Flesh and blood has not revealed it to you, but My Father which is in Heaven”; that is the Holy Spirit quickening that promise in Peter’s mind. Now, at this end time He also quickens that promise in our mind, He brings it to life. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now, he continues saying here \[**“THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK”**\]: \[WSS\] What did Peter see? That Jesus was the Son of God, the Messiah, the Messiah in His Coming at that time. They didn’t know \[the\] a First and Second Coming of Christ; but the prophecies \[had spoken\] speak of the things relevant to the Second Coming of Christ. \[JBP\] And a bit further on he says…, he goes on to say: \[WSS\] (...) If the Cornerstone comes, which is the Messiah, there must be a Cornerstone Age; if there isn’t, he forms it. There, in that Age of the Cornerstone, is where God will reveal the New Name of the Lord; for Christ says through His Spirit that He will write upon him the Name of His God, the Name of the City of His God, and His new Name. And if He says so, that’s how it is. Even if we don’t understand it, we believe it, and we will understand it later on. Therefore, we have to be prepared for those glorious moments that are promised for the believers in Christ \[at\] of this end time. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] In the message **“IT IS THE RISING OF THE SUN,”** Reverend William Branham tells us; on page 36 of this message, he says: \[65-0418M - “It Is The Rising Of The Sun,” pp. 31-32, paras. 246-250\] *246 Like the pentecostal experience today, and the coming of the Holy Ghost in this last days, as promised, is like the abstract to a title deed. See?* *247 Now, you can get a title. Sure. See? You can get a title to a place, but that still don’t say it’s yours. No, sir. Somebody way back yonder could come in and put a claim on it. But when you get an abstract, that shows that everything that’s ever against it is struck off, plumb back from the foundation* (\[JBP\] there on the right he writes): *\[WSS\] «**Claim / Abstract**»**. Is that right?* *248 And when a man has said that he believes the Word, and then when the Holy Spirit comes, It is the abstract to the title. And that gives you permission, when you have that abstract, that every bit of that belongs to you, and everything is on it belongs to you.* \[JBP\] In a message around here, I also saw a place where… in this message “POSSESSING ALL THINGS”\*; I brought it here to… only that part, because if we get into that… we want to make the most of the time. Look, on page (of this message), page 16, there he speaks to us, so that you can write it down there; and on the front he writes: \*\[62-0506 - “Possessing All Things”\] *\[WSS\] «**He is heir to a Title Deed of the whole universe**».* \[JBP\] In other words, of everything. And remember that everything is going back to Eden. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now, he goes on to say \[**“IT IS THE RISING OF THE SUN”**\]: *\[248\] And that gives us the abstract, when the Holy Ghost comes upon this title deed that God saw back yonder ’fore the foundation of the world, and put it name on the Book of Life; but was born through a man and woman, and subject to sin, and guilty of sin. But when I believed on It, I received the deed; but when the Holy Ghost come, It was the abstract that everything against me, whether my mother done it, my father done it, my grandmother done it…* *249 Like the little, epileptic child I prayed for, a few minutes ago, that come through from the grandparents. The epilepsy fell down, and upon the child, I said.* *250 But when the abstract has come, It struck off, omitted everything.* \[JBP\] And The Abstract has come: It omits all of that. May God deliver all my brethren who have that trouble of epilepsy! May that illness be removed from your life! (Since he spoke specifically about that here). *\[250\] I’m a abstract holder then. Amen! And as sure as the Spirit that raised Christ from the dead, I have a abstract deed that I’m part of that Body, with the abstract of the Holy Ghost making that body of Word live out just exactly like It did in Him, as He promised in the last day. The abstract!* \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now, our brother William continues to say here, a bit further on…, or right there; he says \[**“THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK”**\]: \[WSS\] The Seven-Sealed Book is the Lamb’s Book of Life, It is the Title Deed of eternal life, It is the Title Deed of all Creation, which Adam lost and which went back to the right hand of God, so that God’s enemy, the devil, couldn’t manage to take It from Adam; if he had taken of the Tree of Life, he would have lived eternally. It was not a literal tree, it is Christ, the Tree of Life. In Revelation it tells us something very important, something that Adam was not able to obtain. The question would be: If you had been with Adam there or if you had been Adam, would you have tried to eat of the Tree of Life? Well, he was supposed to do that when the Tree of Life became flesh. When the Angel of the Covenant who accompanied him appeared, clothed in human flesh, that was the time to eat of the Tree of Life. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Also here, in this message: **“THE EASTER SEAL,”** on page 41, he tells us there: \[65-0410 - “The Easter Seal,” pp. 34-35, paras. 248-250\] *\[248\] It didn’t glorify Moses, didn’t glorify Elijah, didn’t glorify themselves, didn’t glorify nothing else, but they seen the glorified Christ. And any true believer, that’s what’s in his heart, to glorify Jesus Christ. That’s what he’s trying to get the people to see.* *249 Not say, “Well, if you come join our groups, if you come do this or do that.” Oh, don’t do that. Don’t do that.* *250 See God’s Word, which is Christ, magnified; and fulfill the promise of this day, in this great hour of resurrection. Notice. And it gives them joy, to know that we are with Him, a flesh of His flesh, and bone of His bones. What a joy!* \[JBP\] And he writes there: *\[WSS\] «**To see Jesus glorified = to see the Word incarnate in the 2nd Coming of Christ**».* I’ll read it again: *\[WSS\] «**To see Jesus glorified = to see the Word incarnate in the 2nd Coming of Christ**».* \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now, he continues to say here, look \[**“THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK”**\]: \[WSS\] (...) **“THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK”** is the Title Deed of the Heavens and the Earth, the Title Deed of all Creation; and It is brought to the Church at this end time, in Revelation, chapter 10, by the Mighty Angel who comes down from Heaven, which is Christ; the same One who appeared to Moses and the same One who became flesh in the veil of flesh called Jesus, and the same One who has been in His Church in Holy Spirit, in a heavenly body, covered with that Pillar of Fire that accompanies Him. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] In this same message **“IT IS THE RISING OF THE SUN,”** on page 46, he tells us there: \[65-0418M - “It Is The Rising Of The Sun,” pp. 40-41, paras. 315-323\] *315 Now look at transfiguration. We was, every one, represented there* (\[JBP\] and he writes on the left): *\[WSS\] «**we were represented there**»**. There was the living saints that had raptured, there was Elijah standing there; and there stood Moses, the dead saints repre-…* (\[JBP\] on the right he writes): *\[WSS\] «**Rev. 11:3-7, 11:3-17**»* (\[JBP\] and he writes): *\[WSS\] «**Moses**».* *Also, both of them had quickening Power. Whether one died, and the other didn’t die, they’re all there.* *316 Notice, oh, look what we are now seeing in these last days. The same thing that He promised, John 14:12. Now look.* *\[Blank spot on tape—Ed.\]* *Certainly. People say, “You claim to have power?” No, no, no.* *317 We’re just like them at Mount Transfiguration* (\[JBP\] he draws a Cornerstone and the ages on the left)*, see. Certainly, we do not claim power. But, we, like—like they was…On the Mount Transfiguration, they wasn’t saying, Moses, say, “See who, see who I am,”* (\[JBP\] there he writes): *\[WSS\] «**Mount Transfiguration**»* *the disciples say, “see who I am, see who I am.” You know what happened? Notice, they seen Jesus glorified. That’s all they wanted to see represented, Jesus glorified.* \[JBP\] Above he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Jesus glorified appears with Elijah and Moses**».* *318 And so is it today, we don’t try to be some big person. We don’t care what the people say about us. Our name ain’t nothing; it’s His Name* (\[JBP\] and he writes there): *\[WSS\] «**the Name**»**. Our life, it’s nothing; it’s His Life. It’s His Power, not our power. And there is only one thing that we love to do, is see Him glorified.* \[JBP\] Now, how (he told us there)? How would we see Him glorified? In His Second Coming. *\[318\] And how can it be? When He’s glorified in us, by His resurrection that’s in us. We see Him represented again* (\[JBP\] and he writes): *\[WSS\] «**in Elijah**»* *as He was, today.* *\[WSS\] «**In Elijah: Jesus glorified**»*, he also writes. *319 Did you get that? See, our desire is not to be glorified. Our desire is not some big name. Our desire is not boost some church, or make more in the Sunday school, or try to bring in, hog-tie, push in, offer a picnic party, or bring stars, buttons, or something else like that. That’s not our desire. Our desire is to see Him glorified. Glorified, (what?) not with self-pride; but in us, our lives, to prove He is alive and living in us.* \[JBP\] And he writes on the left: *\[WSS\] «**He lives**».* And on the right he writes: *\[WSS\] «**Jesus glorified**».* *320 If I can get myself out of the way, so when William Branham not even thought of, and you not even thought of, till we can see Jesus glorified among us* (\[JBP\] he writes on the side): *\[WSS\] «**Jesus glorified**»**. See Him, that’s our desire. That’s the quick-…gives us the quickening Power. And it gives us joy, to know that we are with Him, both flesh and bone of Him, being the Bride of Him; and seeing His same vindicated methods, proving in us that He is now risen from the dead* (\[JBP\] and he draws a Cornerstone and the ages)*. See?* *321 No wonder He said, “Fear not”, for now, notice, we are redeemed by Him, and now risen with Him. That’s what Easter means to the people, “risen with Him”! Notice. Now we have His Spirit in us, the abstract deed fully paid.* *322 No, you don’t say* (\[JBP\] there he writes): *\[WSS\] «**abstract**»**, “Well, I hope I make it.” You’ve already made it. Not, “I will make it.” I’ve already made it. I never made it; He made it for me. See? Not me; Him! “Well, Brother Branham, they say…” I don’t care what they say. There He made it, for me. That’s all I want, I’m caring about.* *323 I just—I just want to see Him manifested. How can you do it, call Him down? No. He is in you. See, He is in you. “Well, then, Lord, if I can get myself out of the way* (\[JBP\] and there he writes): *\[WSS\] «**What to do so that He manifests Himself (with Elijah and Moses)**»**, You can manifest. Myself…**How can You do it? Because You ordained it so. ‘All that the Father has given Me will come.’”* \[JBP\] Now, notice this tremendous declaration here, that he writes in the back: *\[WSS\] «**The abstract Title Deed is the Holy Spirit**».* \[JBP\] Now, where would this be obtained? In the Most Holy Place. That’s where the Holy Spirit comes to the Church-Bride —which is the stage of the Age of the Cornerstone— incarnate; and in every soul of every elect; because they had It in the ages in spirit, and it has gone on to the Most Holy Place: to the soul of every elect. Now, first: in the First Coming of the Lord, one would accept and believe in that Work; one would receive It, believe It, and then a Work was carried out. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now look, our brother William continues to say here \[**“THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK”**\]: \[WSS\] And at the Last Day it is promised that He will come for His Church to take Her to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. His Church is all those who will be eating of the Tree of Life to live eternally in the Kingdom of Christ, the Kingdom of God, which will be established on this Earth. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] In the message **“WHO IS THIS MELCHISEDEC?”** he tells us… (let’s find it), on page 24 (because we read this yesterday), a small part here, it says: \[65-0221E - “Who Is This Melchisedec?” pp. 19-20, paras. 105-108\] \[Study “The incarnation of the Word in the children of God,” 15/Feb/2025 (Saturday), pp. \_\_-\_\_\] *105 Notice, after the battle was over, Melchisedec served His victorious child communion; think of that, part of Himself! Now we want to see here. In type here is, in view, the communion. After the battle, He gave of Himself, because the communion is part of Christ. And after the struggle* (\[JBP\] he writes): *\[WSS\] «**the ages**»* *is over, after you’ve done got yourself whipped out, then is when you partake of Christ* (\[JBP\] and he writes): *\[WSS\] «**the Theophany**»**…* \[JBP\] Now, there we saw that part from… “IT IS THE RISING OF THE SUN,” what was spoken to us there. And there he writes: *\[WSS\] «**They become the Word**».* And he draws a Star of David. *\[105\] …then is when you partake of Christ, become part of this Being. You get it?* \[JBP\] And there he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The incarnation of the Word in the children of Abraham**».* *106 Jacob wrestled all night, and wouldn’t turn Him loose until He blessed him. That’s right. Battled for Life! And after the battle is over* (\[JBP\] and he writes): *\[WSS\] «**of the 7th Seal**»**, then God gives you of Himself* (\[JBP\] and he writes): *\[WSS\] «**the Theophany**»**. That is His true communion. The little bread and wafer just represents It. You shouldn’t take it ’less you’ve wrestled it out and become part of God* (\[JBP\] and he writes): *\[WSS\] «**born again**»**.* *107 Remember, at this time, the communion had never been instituted, not until before the death of Jesus Christ, hundreds and hundreds and hundreds of years later.* \[JBP\] And he writes: *\[WSS\] «**The spiritual Communion**».* *108 But Melchisedec, after His child Abraham had won the victory, Melchisedec met him and gave him wine and bread; showing that after this earthly battle is over, we will meet Him in the heavens and take the communion…* \[JBP\] There he draws a Cornerstone. And he writes: *\[WSS\] «**“Come up hither.” Rev. 4:1**».* *\[108\] … and take the communion again. It’ll be the Wedding Supper. “I will not drink no more of the vine, or eat the fruit, until I eat it and drink it with you, anew, in My Father’s Kingdom.”* \[JBP\] And he writes there: *\[WSS\] «**with Moses and Elijah**».* \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Our brother William goes on to say here \[**“THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK”**\]: \[WSS\] It has been a great privilege to be with you on this occasion, testifying to you \[about\] in this Bible study of: **“THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK,”** which was in the right hand of God, and was given to Christ; and which He brings to the Earth in Revelation 10 and gives It to a man, for him to eat It and prophesy before many people, nations, tongues and kings. And in Revelation 11, the prophetic ministry of Moses and Elijah appears, speaking of the things which must come to pass. \[JBP\] And where will all of this be made known, and where can we now say that God is fulfilling that? \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Look, in this message… this one that I’m reading is from 2003…. (correction) 2016; and in 2012, he tells is in the message: “GOD VINDICATING HIS WORD IN EACH TIME,” which was preached on July 7, 2012, it says: **GOD VINDICATING HIS WORD IN EACH TIME** *Dr. William Soto Santiago* *Saturday, July 7, 2012* *Cayey, Puerto Rico* For example, the Vision of the Tent Cathedral is a promised Word, a prophetic Word that has to be fulfilled to and in the midst of Christianity at the end time;and when we are seeing that promise being fulfilled, we will be seeing the promised Word in relation to that promise being vindicated, being made a reality. And the believers: enjoying all those blessings, both of seeing the things that were promised by the Holy Spirit \[through\] by means of the Reverend William Branham…; And they will be enjoying the blessings that God will be giving in the fulfillment of that promise, because there are great blessings that God will be giving His Church. For instance, the faith to be transformed and raptured will be obtained in the fulfillment of the Vision of the Great Tent Cathedral, where the seven Thunders of Revelation, chapter 10, will be speaking to His Church and will be revealing to Her the Seventh Seal, in other words, the mystery of the Second Coming of Christ. \[JBP\] And there are many who say: *“No, the Thunders were spoken in ‘74 to ‘77.”* Notice how the intellectual mind there, the human mind, can take that Word, and they don’t obtain the revelation of what was brought; but the spiritual mind, when it sees the fulfillment of that Word, it says: “*This was what I was waiting for! This was what was spoken! This is the fulfillment!”* \[WSS\] For instance, the faith to be transformed and raptured will be obtained in the fulfillment of the Vision of the Great Tent Cathedral, where the seven Thunders of Revelation, chapter 10, will be speaking to His Church and will be revealing to Her the Seventh Seal… \[JBP\] Remember, there is no contradiction in the Word. As we recently read: wherever you may see a contradiction, there is actually a revelation there. \[WSS\] … in other words, the mystery of the Second Coming of Christ. **THE TITLE DEED IN THE HANDS OF A MAN** *Dr. William Soto Santiago* *Sunday, July 8, 2012* *Cayey, Puerto Rico* We are in the time in which at any moment, Christ will complete His Church, and then He will come out of the Throne of Intercession and will take the Title Deed out of the right hand of God; and that is how the second Adam, who is Christ, receives the Title Deed. Just like Adam received It from God the Father, but It was taken from him, Christ will take It out of the right hand of the Father, of God, open It in Heaven, bring It to Earth in Revelation, chapter 10, and put It in His Church… \[JBP\] Because He doesn’t take It for Himself, rather It is for His Church; as we read in the book of *The Seals*. \[WSS\] … and will put It in His Church, in order to have the faith to be transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. When the Tent Vision is fulfilled, there we will have more information, more revelation, more knowledge regarding that entire Divine Program relevant to the end time… \[JBP\] Where would we seek more information? In the fulfillment of the Tent Vision. And what have we already been receiving for some time now? More information! That is already being fulfilled. \[WSS\] … more revelation, more knowledge regarding that entire Divine Program relevant to the end time; where the Pillar of Fire will be present, the Pillar of Fire, which appeared to Moses and delivered the people of Israel from bondage in Egypt, which is Christ, the Angel of the Covenant. The same Pillar of Fire \[that\] appeared to Saul of Tarsus, and says to Saul of Tarsus: “Saul, Saul, why do you persecute Me? It is hard for you to kick against the pricks.” \[Acts 9:3-5\] \[JBP\] Now notice, that same Pillar of Fire that led the Hebrew people, they had It incarnate there: in the person of Jesus of Nazareth. And the religious leaders could say: *“I have Moses, the Law, and the prophets.”* And as we also read from a message: \[WSS\] “Peter could say: ‘But I have the One who was leading the Hebrew people through Moses: I have Him made flesh.’”\* \***1991-09-20 “The Scripture cannot be ignored”**: \[WSS\]The leaders of that time could say: “We have the Scripture, and we have what Isaiah the prophet says: For the virgin shall conceive and bear a son.” But Peter could say: “And I have that son of the virgin here in our midst, and I walk with Him!” So he was walking with the Scripture, with the prophecy of Isaiah open, fulfilled, materialized, in their midst. And look, throughout the ages, the Holy Spirit was in the midst of the ages under the Dispensation of Grace; but notice, in the end, that Pillar of Fire allowed Itself to be photographed by Reverend William Branham. In other words, It appeared here on his chest \[Dr. JBP points to the lapel of his suit –Ed.\]\*; and then… (I don’t know if you have that picture, so they can see what I’m talking about), and It also allowed Itself be photographed above our brother Branham \[he motions above his head\]\*\*. \*\[Picture of brother Branham in the book of *Quotations*\] \[Picture can be found on the Branham.org website in the multimedia/pictures section.

(First Seal)\] of the book of *The Seals* he said: \[WMB\] “When this Holy Spirit that we have…” It was in the midst of the people of God there, in the seventh age; but he said that \[WMB\] “It would come incarnate in a man.” Now, we can see the Holy Spirit in the midst of the ages, he says… \[the picture of brother Branham with the Pillar of Fire on his lapel is projected on the screen –Ed\]. There it is. *Here*, It allowed Itself to be photographed in that halo *here*; and then the other one, which was above his head. But notice, now the people of God have It in human flesh! And the same One who went those 40 years in the wilderness (represented by the ages, where it is a type and figure of those 40 years in the wilderness), notice, that same One is in the midst of the Church just as He promised. \[The other picture of brother Branham with the Pillar of Fire is projected on the screen –Ed.\] There it is… above his head, It allowed itself to be photographed. Now notice, while brother Branham was in the sixth dimension, he could see everything that you are seeing: he saw a preaching, he saw an altar call, he saw the prayer line, he saw the Pillar of Fire speaking to the one who was there. Now, because he was in that dimension, he could see the One speaking with him. You can only see that veil of flesh. But he said there, in “IT IS THE RISING OF THE SUN”: \[WMB\] “If I can get myself out of the way (in other words, this outer shell), and you can - you could see what’s behind it,” you would be seeing the same thing brother Branham saw. Now, what God is carrying out in the midst of His Church is something so great, but in such a simple way; and that’s what they stumble on: always with the veil, it has always been that way. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] Now he goes on to say here: “In other words, the order...” Now I’m on the message that I’ve been reading since the beginning: **“THE SEVEN-SEALED BOOK”**: \[WSS\] In other words, the order, or what God says through His Spirit: “for you to prophesy before many peoples, nations and tongues,” is fulfilled with the Two Olive Trees, whom Christ will be with, in Holy Spirit, the same One that came in the Angel who comes with the Seal of the living God, that is, with the Holy Spirit, in Revelation chapter 7, to call and gather 144,000 Hebrews, 12,000 of each tribe. That is why Revelation 11 shows the scene that will unfold in those days. And then… That’s \[in\] Revelation \[chapter\] 11, from 1 to 14. And Revelation 11, from 15 to 19, proclaims that the kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our God and of His Christ, of His Messiah, of His Anointed One. And the power of the kingdom of the Gentiles will be removed and given to Christ; the nations, the kingdoms of this world are given, granted to Christ, to the Messiah. In other words, the Stone cut out without hands, which is the Coming of the Lord in His Coming, establishes the Kingdom of God on Earth. The statue will disintegrate in the feet of iron and clay. \[*Dr. Jose B. Perez*\] It is a very glorious time for the children of God! But notice what Reverend William Branham says on page 92 \[p. 109 in Eng. (The Breach…)\] of ***The Seals***: 312 Lord Jesus, the hours are growing late. It may be even later than we are thinking (\[JBP\] there he draws a Star of David, at the beginning of that paragraph). And we are happy to see this hour approaching. It is the most glorious hour that the world has ever known, for the believer. But, for the rejecter, the most saddest time that could ever be. There couldn’t find words in the alphabet, letters to make words, that could express the trouble and sorrow that lays ahead. And neither is there words could be formed, from our alphabet, to express blessings that lays ahead for the believer. \[JBP\] And he writes there: *\[WSS\] «**The most glorious hour for the believer**».* *«**The saddest hour for the rejector**».* \[JBP\] Because, it is either received or rejected. We are among those who have received the fulfillment of what was promised that He would be carrying out in the midst of His Church at the end time; therefore, for us it is the most glorious time, it is the time in which there are no words to express the great blessing that we have been given. It has been a great privilege to be able to speak to you on this occasion, in this Study, in these brief words, about this subject which is very, very extensive; and now in the message that we will be hearing, well, there is a lot of information there as well, which we can get a clear picture of, when we put it together with this. And as I told you this morning: Whoever fully understands this message that we are going to hear today, will clearly understand what has been spoken today, and everything that we have been speaking in this ministry under the Tent. So, ask God to open your understanding on this occasion; and whatever you don’t understand now: pray to God and don’t start talking. Because, what good is it for you to talk? You become like a “yo-yo” \[Dr. JBP is using a play on words between the toy known as a “yo-yo” and the word “*yo*” in Spanish, which means “I” or “me” –Ed.\]: “*I know everything. Yo-yo-yo \[Me, me, me.\]”* Let the Holy Spirit: be *The I* in you; and not you with your ego, saying “I’ve been here since the beginning,” saying “I know, I know, I know.” Look, it says that nothing had been written about the Seventh Seal; at the end time is when that mystery would be opened. And He said to him there: \[WMB\] “John, don’t write that; let it pass. I will reveal it when it needs to be done; they’ll stagger over that.”\* May God help us to not stumble. \*\[*The Seals*, “The First Seal,” p. 136, paras. 167-169\] “**THE TITLE DEED IN THE HANDS OF THE HUMAN RACE.”** All we desire is God’s blessings. All we desire is to not be here when that happens: the great tribulation; rather we want to be in the Marriage Supper of the Lamb; and we know that there is a number, and that there will be no more and no less. Brother Branham used to say: \[WMB\] “If there are two, then I’m one of those two (it’s in the book of *The Seals*); and if there is one, then I want to be that one.”\* But there is a group and there is a number that has already been foreordained before the foundation of the world to be among those who will be transformed. \*\[*The Seals*, “Questions And Answers On The Seals,” pp. 456-457, paras. 113-116 \] “**THE TITLE DEED IN THE HANDS OF THE HUMAN RACE.”** And that Title Deed will come where? Well, those \[to\] who have come from God, those who have come from that Great Theophany. Let’s stand, and thus we will be preparing ourselves now… I don’t know if there is a song here, that our brother Jose Guillermo has, so that…; that song “King of Righteousness” is beautiful, we can sing it too. I don’t know if… if whoever sang it, or however you have it there in your… scheduled. It’s a song that speaks to us about *“those who have come from You,”* and that’s us! Ah, sister Melissa was the one who sang it. It’s a very beautiful song (that’s by our brother Luis Young, right?). And we call upon His Name and we thank Him for placing us in this time. May He delight in this! **KING OF RIGHTEOUSNESS** 1 Delight me, Lord, with Your revelation, sweeten my life with Your Word, (\[JBP\] Amen, Lord) lead me on the path of righteousness, sanctify me to live in Your presence. 2 Restore my heart to Your love, never leave my side. Be my strength in my weakness, Your mercy is forever. CHORUS // King of Righteousness and of love that’s what You are to the people who love You. Those who have come from You call upon Your Name and praise You. // \[JBP\] We have come from Him; that is, we are His attributes; that’s why at this end time we praise Him, we glorify Him and we exalt His Name, His New Name. Those true worshippers worship the Father in spirit and in truth; those are the ones He seeks. 3 I love You my King, my Lord. Singing to You and serving You is an honor. Accept this praise, Lord from this people who loves You and gives You glory. 2 Restore my heart to Your love, never leave my side. Be my strength in my weakness, Your mercy is forever. CHORUS // King of Righteousness and of love that’s what You are to the people who love You. Those who have come from You call upon Your Name and praise You. // \[JBP\] **“THE TITLE DEED IN THE HANDS OF THE HUMAN RACE.”** And not just in anyone’s hand: in our hands! In other words, in the elect of God; and It is there in the soul: The Abstract, that Deed, which is the Holy Spirit. Now we are understanding what the Title Deed is, and where the Title Deed, that Word, that revelation, has to be: in the soul; that is the true birth, which is Him in the Most Holy Place, in the Age of the Cornerstone. And seemingly there was nothing else; and as he said there: \[WSS\] “if there isn’t, he forms it.” But it was in His Program that at this end time there would be an eternal age: the Age of the Cornerstone, in which He would come as King, as Lion. “**THE TITLE DEED IN THE HANDS OF THE HUMAN RACE.”** In the Dispensation of Grace the people were identified by what they had believed and accepted, which was the fulfillment of the First Coming of the Lord; and there was an identification, there was a confession. Now, if He said in His First Coming: “Whoever shall confess Me before men, him will I confess before My Father…” \[Matthew 10:32-33\], and it is brought to its present-day fulfillment in the Dispensation of the Kingdom: we have received Him as our Claimer. May God help us to soon enter a stage that will be carried out for the blessing of the Church-Bride. Everything that was seen in the fulfillment of the Tent Vision had already been established by that ministry, it had already been coming progressively, leading up to that activity. When we go into all those stages, those phases, everything will be so simple that we will hardly notice it. May God continue to give us of that Supper that we are eating, of that Bread of Life, which we are receiving under the Tent; that Teaching that the Lord is giving, which are the Thunders. “**THE TITLE DEED IN THE HANDS OF THE HUMAN RACE.”** We leave with us our dear brother and friend Dr. William Soto Santiago.
