BIBLE STUDY #469 – SUNDAY, DECEMBER 1, 2024
Second activity
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Thank you very much, Missionary Miguel Bermudez Marin; may God continue to bless you greatly and use you mightily in the Work of God in this end time, and may you continue to be a light for all the brethren, both ministers and brethren of the Church in different countries.
And as he told us: it was truly a great blessing to be with all the brethren in the different countries, and to have these activities, which were a great blessing for the brethren and the whole Divine Program, because of all the Word that God gave us.
God is fulfilling what He promised, and He is fulfilling it as He said that He would fulfill it. Not as people think or desire, but as it is in the Divine Program. And that will not fail.
We have also heard from Reverend Andres Cruz Gallegos, about the activity that will be held in Villahermosa, Mexico, on January 12 of this upcoming year 2025, where we expect great blessings from God.
And on February 9 as well, there in Bogota - in Soacha, Colombia; and also on March 23 there in Mexico City, at the Plaza de Toros. And some other place where we’ll go, perhaps it won’t be announced anymore; perhaps we will arrive and we will be there that Sunday at that place. So, be prepared in the places, because suddenly there may appear - we may appear there, and have that activity in some places.
Remember that for him, it got to a point where he could no longer go around openly; but all of that is already being carried out and fulfilled, and every time, well, things will become more difficult. But the Lord, who started the good Work, will perfect it, and He will help us every moment.
Mr. Francisco Guerra and his wife Norma are also with us: May God bless them; my friends, my brethren. They had said that… he was telling me that… uh… they thought that he was the person that I was referring to that time over there in Puebla; but no, no, it is not him; it is another, another lawyer, who is against the Divine Program and the Work of the ministry under a Tent; it’s someone else. It’s not my friend, my brother, Mr. Francisco Guerra; he is faithfully in the Word and in the Work of God at this end time, and he stands hand in hand with the ministry under the Tent. May God bless him greatly and the entire church there in Ciudad Victoria.
And for other brethren who are visiting us: a warm welcome; and all those who are connected through the Amazonas satellite and the Eutelsat 8 satellite, on this occasion, today, Sunday December 1st of this year 2024.
This morning God gave us something very important, where I began to record there in the office; because it was… I couldn’t go out to… like I greeted you there sometimes on Sunday mornings, instead I began to record myself right there*. And there is something very important in everything that was discussed. Although it seems like a simple Scripture [Luke 7:36-50], a story that happened in the times of Jesus, but all of that contains something very, very big. The important thing is which side you are on.
*[Study “Taking sides with the Anointed One,” 1-1/Dec/2024 (Sunday)]
In the time of Jesus, the important thing was to be on Jesus’ side, even if they didn’t understand and didn’t comprehend many things. That is why Jesus said to Peter: “What you don’t understand now, you will understand later.” [John 13:7]
Now, whose side are you on today, at this time? That is what matters. Even if you don’t understand some things, God will continue to open your understanding, open the Scriptures to you, so that you understand.
Let’s search in the Gospel according to Mark…
Our brother Enrique Garcia and his wife and family are also visiting us here: may God bless them greatly, and continue to use them greatly in the Work at this end time.
There in Mark, chapter 11, verse 22 and on…, verse 20, which is where he starts reading…; because notice, in verse 12, He had been - He was hungry, and they passed by a fig tree to take its fruit and eat; but the fig tree had no fruit, it only had leaves; and He cursed it there. And notice, in verse 20 it says:
Mark 11:20
20 And in the morning, as they passed by ([JBP] notice, the morning, on the morning of a new dispensational day), they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
[JBP] Because on the new dispensational day is when the Son of Man comes with His Angels to render every man according to his deeds.
20 And in the morning, as they passed by, they saw the fig tree dried up from the roots.
21 And Peter calling to remembrance saith unto him, Master, behold, the fig tree which thou cursedst is withered away.
22 And Jesus answering saith unto them, Have faith in God.
23 For verily I say unto you, That whosoever shall say unto this mountain, Be thou removed, and be thou cast into the sea; and shall not doubt in his heart, but shall believe that those things which he saith shall come to pass; he shall have whatsoever he saith.
[JBP] There, on verse 23, he draws a Star of David on the left; twice, because over here he draws it again. In other words, on that paragraph, on verse 23, he draws two Stars of David on the right.
And he writes here at the bottom: [WSS] «Fig tree = Israel / Mountain = kingdom (the kingdom of the gentiles will be taken away, just like Israel’s was taken away)».
Verse 24 goes on to say:
24 Therefore I say unto you, What things soever ye desire, when ye pray, believe that ye receive them, and ye shall have them.
[JBP] And he draws another Star of David on the right.
25 And when ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any: that your Father also which is in heaven may forgive you your trespasses.
26 But if ye do not forgive, neither will your Father which is in heaven forgive your trespasses.
[JBP] And he draws another Star of David, there on the right.
THE MANIFESTATIONS OF THE POWER OF GOD Dr. William Soto Santiago Sunday, April 21, 2013 Cayey Puerto Rico
Scripture: Mark 11:20-26
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] In the message “THE GREAT VOICE OF TRUMPET IN THE EXODUS OF THE LAST DAY,” which was preached on January 9, 2000, here in Puerto Rico (that is, at the beginning of that year), our brother, Dr. William Soto Santiago tells us:
THE GREAT VOICE OF TRUMPET IN THE EXODUS OF THE LAST DAY Dr. William Soto Santiago Sunday, January 9, 2000 (Second activity) Cayey, Puerto Rico
And at this end time, when Christ adopts His Angel Messenger, then we will see great wonders, signs and miracles, as prophesied in the Tent Vision. The same Angel that accompanied Reverend William Branham will be present there, and the same Pillar of Fire that accompanied him will be present there in the fulfillment of the Tent Vision. And the five times that he saw the power of God manifested in all its fullness, which were five demonstrations or samples that God gave us through Reverend William Branham*, will be that same power manifested in all its fullness speaking that creative Word; to the points that there won’t even be the need to lay hands on the sick.
*[Sister Meda Branham’s Healing: 64-0120 - “His Unfailing Words Of Promise,” pp. 10-17, paras. 71-136 / Stopping the Storm: 63-1110E - “He That Is In You,” pp. 20-24, paras. 86-122) / Resurrection of the Little Fish: 57-0623 - “Believe From The Heart,” pp. 17-20, paras. 130-157 / Creation of Squirrels: 59-1123 - “Speak To This Mountain,” pp. 15-24, paras. 33-52 / Salvation of Hattie Wright’s children: 60-0417M - “Go, Tell,” pp. 26-28, paras. 170-188]
[JBP] In that study for that day, which was prepared for him, on the back of the study, he lists all five; and look, he writes:
[WSS] «1. The little fish and its resurrection = resurrected believers.
(and he writes below)
Jesus resurrected Lazarus».
[WSS] «2. The storm = power over nature.
(and below that he writes)
God spoke through Moses, parted the Red Sea.
(and after that there)
Jesus rebuked the storm».
And below… the part about Moses, where it says:
«God spoke through Moses, parted the Red Sea ».
(and below)
And then the Jordan with Joshua».
And then there on the side he writes:
«Jesus rebuked the storm».
Meaning, it was power over nature.
Then he writes:
[WSS] «3. The salvation of Hattie Wright’s sons.
(below he writes)
God saved Israel, Jesus saved every firstborn».
Then he writes:
[WSS] «4. The tumor in the ovary and her healing.
(he writes)
Jesus healed the sick
and He did so for His apostles and other messengers,
and He will do so today».
[WSS] «5. The creation of squirrels to be hunted and to be food».
And he writes:
«When Moses, God gave the people bread and quails.
And Jesus multiplied the loaves and the fish two times».
[JBP] Now notice, those were the five manifestations.
That’s why he says: [WMB] “What you’ve seen partially…”*; but notice, He showed …; although He had more manifestations, the Holy Spirit through our brother Branham, but these were the most prominent; and they were showing what it would be like in all its fullness at this end time.
*[63-1229E - “Look Away To Jesus,” pp. 5-6, paras. 38-39]
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now look, out brother William continues to say [“THE GREAT VOICE OF TRUMPET IN THE EXODUS OF THE LAST DAY”]:
[WSS] When that ministry of Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, is operating in that messenger that He will have at the Last Day in the fulfillment of the Tent Vision, he won’t need to lay hands on the sick, he won’t even need to pray for the sick, but to speak the creative Word, and things will come to pass.
[JBP] Now notice, if it says that He will have an instrument, that He will have a messenger that will do that, well, Paul is already gone, Irenaeus is gone, Columba is gone, Luther is gone, Wesley is gone, brother Branham is gone, God took our brother William too; well, there must be an instrument in which all of that will be fulfilled.
Like a person (back in… I think it was in Brazil) which I was being told by the… the wife, because the husband is not a believer. And he said to her: “Who is that guy talking? Is that William?, since the…” —“No; William departed.” —“Ah, that’s why I ask; because you had said that he had departed - that he departed. But what about him?” —“He’s the one who is ministering now,” she told him something like that. And he says to her: “Well, if William is gone, then there must be another, it must be him.” And he is not a believer; rather, he knows the Scriptures.
But notice, a person who is not a believer, let’s say, logically: if God takes a messenger, then there must be another one. And he said to her: “Well, then he is the one,” that is, he said to her: “Well, then he is the one you were waiting for.”
Now notice, he goes on to say [“THE GREAT VOICE OF TRUMPET IN THE EXODUS OF THE LAST DAY”]:
[WSS] … he won’t even need to pray for the sick, but to speak the creative Word, and things will come to pass.
[JBP] Because the Third Pull is the Word being spoken.
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now look, in this message, which is from this booklet that has excerpts from ‘56 to ‘65, from different messages where he spoke of the Tent Vision. And on page 24 there’s an excerpt from the message “SPEAK TO THIS MOUNTAIN,” and here he tells us (our brother Branham):
[59-1123 - “Speak To This Mountain,” pp. 17-18, 27, paras. 38-39, 59]
[38] I said, (...). Is this the Scripture that You’re trying to get to me? Is this that other step that we’re coming up to? You give me a vision and said it be confirmed in a little building somewhere in a meeting when the tents get started.” I said, “Is this what it’s leading to? If it is, Lord, then I’ll take You by Your Word.”
[39] I said, “And there shall come a young red squirrel and set on that old naked limb out yonder and I’ll shoot him from right here.” (...)
[59] I said, “If this be my new ministry that’s coming in, something greater, that He will finally confirm in that little building…” ([JBP] there he was narrating about the squirrels). I said, “If it be that… (...).”
I said, “If the Lord was confirming my ministry there, to let me know that He’s going to help His people and let me do it,” I said, “then the same Jehovah-jireh…I was in need of a squirrel the same as he was in need of a ram, and I believe Jehovah-jireh placed it there by His same spoken Word. (...).”
[JBP] The same thing that happened with Abraham.
Now notice, here he writes below, he lists them again and he writes:
[WSS] «Squirrels created, by the spoken Word — creation of food.
The storm stopped…
(he writes quotation marks, to avoid writing: “by the spoken Word,” meaning, ditto marks)
The storm stopped, by the spoken Word — control over nature».
[JBP] Now in each sentence, in each line, at the end he writes a Scripture.
At the beginning of the first line he writes:
[WSS] «Rev. 11:3-14, 5:1-7, 10:1-11».
On the second line:
[WSS] «The storm stopped…
The little fish resurrected».
Let me put here the… so that you can read along with me; and if you can take notes, then do so too, while the Study comes out.
Let’s see here… One already becomes an expert even in taking pictures… (hehe). There.
[WSS] «Squirrels created, by the spoken Word — Creation of food.
Rev. 11:3-14, 5:1-11, 10:1-11».
«The storm stopped, by the spoken Word — Control over nature.
Rev. 11:3-5 (which are the ministries of Moses and Elijah)».
[JBP] There he also writes:
[WSS] «Mark 11:22-24».
(I don’t know if Scripture came out there? Yes).
Then he writes:
[WSS] «The little fish resurrected, by the spoken Word — The Resurrection.
(And there on the side he writes)
1 Thess. 4:12-17, 1 Cor. 15:49-58, 15:20».
Then:
[WSS] «The tumor removed, by the spoken Word.
(See? Everything is by the spoken Word)
— Divine Healing. Rev. 11:3».
[JBP] In other words, divine healing, notice, comes through the Two Olive Trees: “With healing, health in His Wings.” [Malachi 4:2]
[WSS] «Salvation for two young men, by the spoken Word — Call and salvation. Rev. 7:1-17, 14:1, 12: (That is of Revelation. That is the Angel with the Seal of the living God)».
Now, we talked about that in Argentina, in a talk that we had, where God showed us there how sister Hattie Wright was given the opportunity to speak the Word on behalf of her children. She ministered in the Most Holy Place*.
*[Chat “God through the Bride carrying out the work of that particular time,” 18-1/Nov/2024 (Monday) Complete study, starting on p. __ ] [Chat “The Church-Bride being anointed with the Pillar of Fire,” 18-2/Nov/2024 (Monday) Complete study, starting on p. __ ]
Just like by the Bride at this end time having the Word, the Title Deed, in Her, the two-edged Sword, She will be ministering on behalf of her family members.
And that work in the book of The Ages, on page 185, 186, 187, which speaks to us of the Bride, which speaks to us about the work that He left in particular. Notice, it is such an important work! that the Church-Bride would be carrying out at the end of time: which is the work of ministering in the Most Holy Place.
Now, notice that there was only ministering in the most holy place by the high priest: by one person.
Now, by being placed in the Most Holy Place of the spiritual Temple, which is the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, there, the elect of God, by them also having the Title Deed, that gives them the right to carry out a Work that was not carried out at any time, not even in the time of Adam. Adam did not go as far as eating the Book, he did not take - he did not go as far as eating of the Tree of Life.
Now, that is something so great…, that perhaps our minds fail to take in…, or fail to internalize the greatness of the meaning of that for every elect of God, and the greatness which God - and the great Work that God is carrying out today.
We are back in Eden, and there were some characters there, and there was an action that had to be carried out there, and it was to eat from one of the two trees, from one of those two trees: either from the Tree of Life or from the tree of knowledge of good and evil: we are facing that again.
Which tree are you eating from today?
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now, notice, he continues to say [“THE GREAT VOICE OF TRUMPET IN THE EXODUS OF THE LAST DAY”]:
[WSS] You will find that in the cases that were a sample of what will happen at the Last Day, in this full manifestation of God, you will find that in the five samples that Reverend William Branham gave us, as samples of that full manifestation of the power of God in the fulfillment of the Third Pull, you will find that on none of those occasions did Reverend William Branham, on none of those occasions did he pray for the healing, or for the creation, or for the resurrection of the little fish…
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now look, also in this study, it’s in the message “SPIRIT OF TRUTH,” and he speaks to us about one of those manifestations, the one of the little fish. Notice what he says here:
[63-0118 - “Spirit Of Truth,” pp. 11-12, paras. 84-94]
84 Brother Lyle, Brother Banks’ brother, was fishing with a reeling pole, great big hook, and a big bunch of worms on. He let that little old bluegill swallow that hook plumb down in his little belly. And when he pulled him up, he said, “Now, I wish you’d look at there,” just about that long. And he just…He couldn’t take the hook out, I guess. No other way; just cut the string off. And he wanted to save his hook. So he just pulled gills ([JBP] in other words, he tore out all its insides; when he grabbed the fish and pulled to grab - to take the hook, he says), belly and all, out of him, like that, and throwed him over on the water. ([JBP] Meaning, it was already…, after that, imagine, the fish was already…; and that is where he says) And he—he quivered three or four times and just laid there ([JBP] it laid there floating like that). He said ([JBP] brother Branham’s friend there), “You shot your last wad, little fellow.”
85 I said, “Lyle, when he starts to bite…Get a smaller hook than that. When he starts to bite, take this fly rod laying here, and just as he starts to bite, catch him. See? Before he gets it in and swallows it, catch in his mouth.” I said, “That’s the sport of catching them.”
[JBP] He’s teaching him how to fish.
86 “Ah,” he said, “I’d make the wrong pull,” and he just went ahead. And he tried a few times ([JBP] meanwhile, the little fish was floating there, near the ship, the boat) and missed about three or four. And he laid the thing down, said, “I’ll just let him swallow it again.”
87 So this little fish floated around on the water there for a little, oh, I guess, thirty minutes ([JBP] he underlines “thirty minutes”). And the waves begin to get up and come in.
88 I said, “Well, we’ll have to leave pretty soon. We got a bucket now, so we’ll have to leave.”
89 And I raised up, to throw it back over on some lily pads, to jerk it off. There was some of the big red-belly back there. So I started, pull the—the—the bait off of the pad, you know, flipped it over on the pad, and jerk it off, as you fellows and women know about fishing.
90 And when I started to do that, all of a sudden, Something came down through them hills, just like a Wind pouring. And It went upon me.
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now look, let’s stop for a moment there. In the book of Quotations, on page 6-A, (which we spoke something about yesterday, in the other places, referring to that), paragraph 63, says:
[57-0407M - “God Keeps His Word,” pp. 29-30, paras. 218, 224-225] [Bible Study #262, 9/Dec/2022 (Friday), pp. 27-29]
63 - “218 I believe it’s coming to a time where the...Paul said, ‘Where there is prophecies, it shall fail; where there is tongues, they shall cease.’ I believe it’s coming to a time till when the saints will get together like this, and just a love spirit will just sweep over the audience. And just, every person in there…”
[JBP] Notice what at this end time is promised for that Church, where Reverend William Branham felt something come down there. Now, remember when he spoke in a portion of the Book of Quotations that says: [WMB] “Watch the resurrection how it moves.”
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now, he continues to say… Now in order to carry that out there has to be love; and that is divine love; not agapao [phileo] love, but divine love. Page 12 where it tells us, which we quoted from memory, paragraph 96 [Quotations]:
[56-0224 - “Jehovah-Jireh,” p. 19, paras. 49-50] [Bible Study #212, 17/June/2022 (Friday), p. 7 / Study “The Lion of the tribe of Judah,” 20/Aug/2022 (Saturday), pp. 4-5]
96 - “[49] Now, it’s written between the lines lot of times.
50 When we get our big tent up out here somewhere, we’ll take plenty of time and go through them in-between the lines. Watch the resurrection thing how it moves in there. Just get in love with Him and He will reveal it to you.”
[JBP] See? In other words, all that which was spoken will be carried out in the midst of the people of God, in the fulfillment of the Tent Vision; which, we are in that time, and all that is being carried out; but remember that it happens progressively.
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now he says [Quotations]:
63 - “[218] … all that’s wrong will be taken out. It’ll be such a Presence of the Holy Spirit. (...)
[224] I believe gifts are wonderful, and we need them and respect them.
225 But I believe the time is coming when it’s going to be on a higher standard than that.”
[JBP] He draws a Cornerstone and the ages, the arrow towards the Cornerstone.
And he writes: [WSS] «Divine Love».
63 - “[225] Why, ‘After all these things is done away, that which is love will endure forever.’ See? It’s the love of God. We’ll just— we’ll just be standing, preaching like this, or talking, and just the love will just settle over the building.”
[JBP] Now, how? By speaking the Word, notice.
63 - “[225] …standing, preaching like this, or talking, and just the love will just settle over the building.”
[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Divine Love / Gifts will be taken away».
And above: [WSS] «Rapturing Faith / When that which is perfect comes = Love».
[JBP] May there be no unbelief among the people.
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now look, he says [“SPIRIT OF TRUTH”]:
90 And when I started to do that, all of a sudden, Something came down through them hills, just like a Wind pouring. And It went upon me. I dropped the pole, and stood up in the boat. And I looked around. I heard a Voice say, “You see that little fish?” And there he was, laying there.
91 I said, “You see the little fish?”...
[JBP] In other words, he repeated what he heard.
Now, there you are seeing the way that prophets speak: they hear from that dimension, and convey to the people what they hear.
That will be experienced by every elect, they will have the THUS SAITH THE LORD in their mouth, and whatever a child of God speaks, God will fulfill that, no matter what it is. But remember that it is always in the perfect will of God. Those will be Gods, the Scripture says: “Said I not unto you, Ye are gods?” [John 10:34]
Now notice:
91 I said, “You see the little fish?” just as He said it. There his little fins was stiffened out, and he was, laid on the water for a half hour. And this Bible is laying open now. See?
And He said, “Speak to him, and give him back his life.”
[JBP] Well, what is brother Branham going to do? Well, speak it!, speak what the Angel is saying.
He writes there on the side:
[WSS] «The little fish = the believers, the Church-Bride».
«“Speak to him, and give him back his life”».
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Didn’t He say so in John, chapter 5, verse 25?:
John 5:25
25 Verily, verily, I say unto you, The hour is coming, and now is, when the dead shall hear the voice of the Son of God: and they that hear shall live.
[JBP] And there he draws a Star of David on the right.
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now notice, there he says [“SPIRIT OF TRUTH”]:
92 And I said, “Little fishy, in the Name of the Lord Jesus, I give you back your life.”
93 And those men standing, watching. That little fish turned over on his back, and down through the water he went. They like to fainted. Lyle washed his face in water. He said, “I’ll wake up after while.” ([JBP] Hehe. In other words, he says: “This is either a dream or this is… Did I fall asleep?”). He said, “I—I know I’m dreaming.”
I said, “You’re not dreaming.”
[JBP] Won’t that happen when they come? [He taps himself on the shoulder –Ed.] “Hey…”
—“But what are you doing here? Let me see… [he rubs his eye –Ed.], are you sure that…? Am I seeing this right…? Could I be dreaming?”
Look, do what brother Branham did when he went over there; he pinched himself: “Ouch!” He could feel it. We will have to pinch ourselves a few times then; because it will be something that humanly… Although we know the promises and we know what will happen, but it will be such a big surprise to see those young people around…
In other words, here it was something inconceivable what this brother saw, being aware that he had torn out its entrails and its whole belly inside, and to then see the little fish move after hearing the voice of the prophet.
94 And right on the same time, I guess I had, on prayer list, thirty or forty spastic children ([JBP] he continues saying there). And how God would go around, from them spastic children, and bring up that little fish, it just goes to show that He is interested in everything.
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now look, our brother William goes on to say here [“THE GREAT VOICE OF TRUMPET IN THE EXODUS OF THE LAST DAY”]:
[WSS] … he spoke the Word, that it be resurrected, that it come back to life, and it came to life.
[JBP] There is another place also where he refers to this resurrection of this little fish, those five manifestations were also listed for him. And in that part about the resurrection of the little fish, he writes above:
[WSS] «Christians who are dead in Christ: of this time, and those of the 7 ages, and of the apostles».
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now, he goes on to say…, now he goes on the next one, he says [“THE GREAT VOICE OF TRUMPET IN THE EXODUS OF THE LAST DAY”]:
[WSS] He spoke the Word to the storm, for the winds to go back to their place, and they went back to their place; for the salvation of the sons of Sister Hattie Wright ([JBP] he’s going to the third one already) the creative Word spoke, saying: “I give them to you in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ”; and they were saved. And in the healing ([JBP] there’s the fourth one) of sister Branham, of the tumor that was in an ovary, when she went to be examined to be operated on (because they were already in the midst of those procedures and it was time for her to be operated on), God showed him everything when he prayed for her, despite being at a distance, from one state to another: she was in Tucson, Arizona, and he was in Jeffersonville, Indiana…
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now look, in… we were going to read it perhaps more… either in the afternoon or in another message, but since… Let’s… I brought it; and given that, since I brought it, well, let’s read it. This morning we were reading this message.
But look, this part draws our attention where our brother Branham follows the doctor’s recommendation. And anyone can say: “But… but he is a man who is being used by God. He can remove it by praying - pray to God and remove his wife’s tumor, why does he send her to have an operation?”
And in this message he talks about this and let’s read it. Look, on page 32 of the message “TAKING SIDES WITH JESUS,” there on page 32, it says:
[62-0601 - “Taking Sides With Jesus,” pp. 43-47, paras. 252-271] [Study The Age of the Cornerstone, the Coming of the Lord,” 9/Nov/2022 (Wednesday), pp. 13-18, 20-21, 34, 37-41]
[252] They seen they couldn’t get anywhere, with Him.
So, you know, the next thing they had to do, to try to get Him off the field…
[JBP] That was after what he was reading, about the woman who washed His feet and the man whom He healed, whose sight He healed. And brother Branham says: “Now they are going to try something else.” The enemy is stubborn.
[252] …to try to get Him off the field, they went and said to His brethren and His mother, “You know, He is awfully tired. You should take Him off to one side, for a while.” That bunch of hypocrites! They just didn’t, the thing, it was, they just didn’t want to get, the thing they didn’t want to do…They wanted to get rid of Him. It wasn’t that they thought He was so tired. They’d like for Him to work Himself to death. But every time He went out, the miracles started pouring, the Word of God went forth.
I, wouldn’t I like to hear Him stand up there that day, on the sea coast, when He called Simon Peter, and said, “Follow Me!” ([JBP] brother Branham is saying). Would I liked to got on a chunk and set down there, left my nets, and left my fishing pole, Brother Crase, and set down there, lean back against a chunk and listen to Him preach when He got in that boat! Oh, my, my! Would I loved to have heard Him when He said that, “Come unto Me, all ye that labor and heavy laden. I’ll give you rest.” Amen. I’d like to heard Him say it.
253 They tried to get His mother and them to take Him off the field. They said, “Well, you know, He’s—He’s overworked. I believe you better get Him off that way.” Any way, thing, to get rid of Him, that’s all they wanted. Yes, sir.
254 Again, the many that went with Him, just to find a place to trap Him. Did you know that? [The brethren say, “Amen.”—Ed.] People followed right along with Him, just to find a place. They give Him, one day, a penny. And they said, “Rabbi…”
Before they give Him the penny, said, “Rabbi, we’re Jews. We know You’re a great Man of God.” Oh, that hypocrite! See? Yeah. “We know You’re a great Man of God. Yes, Sir, Rabbi.” They was walking right along with Him. “Oh, good morning, Brother! Oh, we’re so happy You’re over here in our country! Oh, we’re so glad to see You! We are really for You, teeth and toe nail, Brother. If You’re going to have a revival, we even might cooperate with You.” See? What they’re trying to do is set a trap for Him. See?
[JBP] Now, remember quote 1004?*
*[63-1110M - “Souls That Are In Prison Now,” pp. 33-34. paras. 231-234]
255 They said, “Now, we know that Thou art a great Man of God. You don’t fear favor of no man. You fear nothing but God. And we know that You are bold. Oh, You’re fearless with Your Message! We know You’re a great Prophet, ’cause no man could do like that and be fearless with His Message in a days like this, unless He was a Prophet of God, knows where He is standing. So, we know You don’t respect person, no man. Rabbi, You’re a great Man. We’re Jews. We’re right with You, Brother. We sure are.
256 “Now, Rabbi, is it right to pay tribute to Caesar?” Oh, that bunch of hypocrites! Huh!
Wait. The Holy Spirit was with Him. He was the Holy Spirit. See? He said, “You got a penny?”
Say, “Oh, yes, yes. Yeah. I got a penny, yeah, I do.”
Said, “Hand it to Me.” Said, “Whose inscription is on that?”
Said, “Caesar.”
Said, “Then give Caesar what’s Caesar’s; God’s what is God’s.”
257 Setting a trap for Him, professing to be His friends. Seemed like no one could understand Him. They would travel with Him a little while, then get disgusted with Him, and leave. They would say, “Oh, well, we thought, we thought surely…” Even the disciples said, “We thought surely this was He that was going to…” Till, even John sent out, asked Him, “Are You He, or do we look for another?” See? Oh, what a life He must have lived, see, and knowing that! But He had one purpose, one purpose: do the work of God. Many went with Him, just to find a place to trap Him.
258 Now, I hope it’s not sacrilegious if I say it’s the same today ([JBP] there he writes): [WSS] «the same today» ([JBP] on the right). Many come in and follow the meeting, just to find a place, see you pray for somebody.
259 Here, not long ago, a certain sister that goes to this church, was at another church where God was making everything happen. And this sister said to the other sister, said, “You know, that man that could pray for the sick,” said, “must have a—a—a very victorious life.” And said, “He must just be able, his family, everything, be healed at a [Brother Branham snaps his finger—Ed.] spoken word, like that.”
And the other lady happened to be from Jeffersonville. And I’m sure that nobody has to know, but what Jesus said, “Among your own people,” you know, “your country.” That’s right. That’s the reason I…It may be that right now, coming close, it may be a change of time, you see.
[JBP] And he continues narrating, saying:
And he said—he said, “You know what?” Said, “Not one of his kids ([JBP] meaning, brother Branham’s kids; this is the woman speaking) can have a sniffle, ’less he takes it to a doctor.” A poor, degraded, deluded thing like that, see, see, a woman that just wanted to throw off. Said, “When his children get sick, he takes them to a doctor.”
[JBP] Brother Branham says, he continues to say:
260 Anybody that’s sensible will do the same thing. Yeah. People can’t understand that medicine is sent of God. Why, brethren, if it’s not, it’s of the devil. Sure, it is. God is where medicine won’t reach. Certainly. Medicine is of God. “Well,” you say, “I know a lot of doctors just…” Oh, yes, and I know a lot of preachers is the same way, too. It’s not the man that’s handling it, it’s what it is. I know a many men is handling the Word of God, don’t believe in Divine healing, don’t even believe in God. Right. But they handle It, just the same. There’s many of men out there with medicine, and surgery, and stuff, that denies God and everything else, but there’s a many one that believes Him too. So if it helps people, it’s of God. I don’t have to…I don’t have to take that car and ride home tonight. I can walk if I want to. But God made me a car, so I thank God for it. All these things come from God, but use them sensibly. Don’t go insane with them. See?
261 The same thing, so, that, that’s it, you see. Just trying to find something, to this young convert, to blight their name, the name of—of the works of God. See? They wanted to blight it. “Every time a child gets sick, one of his children, he takes them to a doctor.” ([JBP] he repeats what the sister said).
Sure, I would. Then if the doctor can’t… I’ll ask God to help before I go there. Then if the doctor can do nothing about it, then I’ll take him up a little higher.
[JBP] Now that’s a perfect faith, that’s Rapturing Faith!
[261] … then I’ll take him up a little higher. Uh-huh. That’s right. Yes, sir.
Oh, just the same today, they’re trying to find a trap somewhere.
262 He knew them, but notice, He never rebuked them. He went right with them. Uh-huh. He does the same thing now. He goes right along with them, shows them His mercy, that’s right, though they do altogether against Him. Why? Because He loves them. And He went with them.
But they’re always ready to call on Him in a case of emergency. They want Him then. They want…They’ll make fun of somebody, of shouting. They’ll make fun of somebody preaching Divine healing, say they don’t believe in it. They just haven’t got sick enough yet. I’ve heard a many one.
[JBP] Because once something happens to them and they get sick, right away they seek God; right away: “Pray for me!”
263 A woman, dying, just as I run up the steps, when I was preaching right here. And the man standing right there at the door, calling to me. She had walked by. She lived up the street here, and had a cow out there. And she said, “If my cow got that kind of religion that Billy’s got, I would kill the cow.” In less than an hour from then, she was stricken and taken to the hospital, a beautiful young woman.
And I rushed out there. Her husband was Catholic. And they sent for me. “She is dying. And she went…Her eyes went to swelling out. She said, ‘Call him. Call him. Call him. Call him. Quickly. Quickly.’”
264 And her brother run up and stood there at the door, and waited and waited, and he kept motioning for me ([JBP] that is, there in the tabernacle). And the place was packed full of people. And after while, somebody come around and put a note on—on the desk here. It said—said, “Someone is dying in a hospital.”
And I believe, Brother Graham Snelling, I said, “Take my place till I go.” And he would just stand up and lead singing. He wasn’t even called, and to—to preach, at that time. He come up to lead singing.
And I went out and got in my car, and rushed out there. And just as I go up the steps, she drawed her last breath. And, of course, the bowels and kidneys, everything, act. And I run in there, and they done covered her face up, and steam coming up around like that. And that old nurse standing there, she said, “Brother Branham, she screamed her last breath for you.” Trying to make it right, but it was too late then…
[JBP] Book of The Seals page 469 and 470, when they came, notice, repented, but they had already spurned God’s mercy for the last time, and he says there: [WMB] “They had been in meetings like this one.” [The Seals, “The Sixth Seal,” pp. 424-425, para. 361-362]
[264] …you see. Yeah. Too…You can sin one time too many, you know.
265 And she kind of had…deep in her face. She had auburn hair; a real pretty woman. And her—her bobbed hair was all bushed out. Great big brown eyes had pushed out, and just half closed. And the freckles on her face had got in such a way, such strain, till they just stood on out like little bumps all over her face, and her mouth was open. And I walked over there and looked at her.
And there her husband stood there, and said, “Billy, here is what it was.” Said, “I am Catholic. I want you to say a prayer for her, ’cause she’s gone to purgatory.”
I said, “What?”
266 Said, “Say a prayer for her.” Said, “She’s gone to purgatory. She passed by your church about two hours ago, and said, ‘If our cow ever got your kind of religion, she would kill the cow.’” See? Said, “Say a prayer for her.”
267 I said, “That’s too late. She should have purged her soul here, not till she gets somewhere else.” See? That’s right. Oh, yes.
But we always want Him in the time of distress. People, I’ve heard them say, “I don’t believe in God.” Let him hurt himself right bad, once, see the first One he’ll call on.
268 Even His disciples, one time when they were in a storm. Though, when they saw Him, they were a little bit afraid of Him. They didn’t know just exactly what It was. They said, “It’s a spirit.” And they cried out. But, yet, all hopes for being saved was gone, so they invited Him in. Yeah. There, always, whether you’re a little suspicious or not. When all hopes is gone, you like to invite Him in. Yeah. They took Him in, because they had a need of Him. That’s right.
269 You know, I’ve often wondered, sometime, maybe that’s why the storms come on. Did you ever think of that? He set up there and watched them till they had need of Him, and then He come on the scene. So, we can see our need of Him now. We see that the storm is coming, brother. Let’s take sides with Him tonight. Take sides with His Word.
I—I—I quit here.
270 Let’s take sides with Him. Let’s us, you and I, brethren, join up with Him, tonight. The storm is coming. And don’t wait till the little boat is sunk. Let’s take Him into our little bark now.
You might look off and say, “I can’t understand all these things, Brother Branham.”
271 See if we say anything but what’s in the Word. See if there’s anything there but what He promised to do. It might look a little spooky to you, sometime. You think, “Oh, my. I can’t understand That.” But there’ll be a day when this life of yours is leaving. It—it won’t look so bad to you then. When you know, yourself, you got to turn back to the God that created you, you’ll want to take Him in then. Let’s take Him in now, before the storm gets any worse than what it is.
[JBP] Now notice how here brother Branham… We had this little parenthesis there, on this occasion where he prayed for her, notice, at that time when she was in that condition. In other places he says that he had prayed for that.
But see, God was allowing everything, so that God’s glory would be manifested in the life of sister Meda, and God was going to show that she would be healed by the spoken Word.
Now notice, he was already doing the final part, that is, he was getting to the part of the operation, the part of the final preparations there to operate her, and the process was already in place.
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Here he continues, where our brother William paused - where I paused, where Brother William was saying [“THE GREAT VOICE OF TRUMPET IN THE EXODUS OF THE LAST DAY”]:
[WSS] … (because they were already in the midst of that process and it was time for her to be operated on), God showed him everything when he prayed for her, despite being at a distance… from one state to another: she was in Tucson, Arizona, and he was in Jeffersonville, Indiana; and he was praying for her, that God would be with her and help her ([JBP] he was praying for her). [And] the Lord said to him: “Whatever you say will happen.”
[JBP] Notice that there it wasn’t a matter of praying for her, but of speaking the Word.
[WSS] “Whatever you say will happen.” And he said: “Before the doctor places his hand on the tumor: let it disappear”. And that is what happened.
Aquí no dejo en violeta el texto porque me da la impresión que fue lo que le escribieron dentro del estudio [P]
[JBP] Now notice, here in that part where they put: “The healing of Reverend William Branham's wife, who had a malignant tumor in one of her ovaries” (which was the fifth one that they put here); in that sentence, he… the part where it says: “Malignant tumor,” he underlined and circled it a lot.
And there he writes: [WSS] «She is a type of the Bride of his time having children», there above “Reverend William Branham’s wife.”
And above “malignant tumor” he writes: [WSS] «A denominational spirit in the group».
And above “her ovaries” there he writes: [WSS] «Rebekah and Sarah = oneness and threeness. The two trees in the two pots — plums and…», meaning, and another fruit.
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now look in this message “DESPERATIONS,” let’s see something there that our brother Branham tells us; on page 17, he says:
[63-0901E - “Desperations,” pp. 15-16, paras. 82-83] [Bible Study #442, 30-2/Aug/2024 (Friday), pp. 25-26]
82 Now Jacob thought, because that he had the birthright, that everything was made.
So did the Pentecostal people ([JBP] and above he writes): [WSS] «Jacob = Pentecostals», and they begin to organize, the—the oneness, threeness, and trinitarians, and all kinds of organizations, and fussing ([JBP] he circles “fussing”) and pulling at one another, proved that the Token wasn’t showing ([JBP] there he writes): [WSS] «if they fuss, the sign isn’t there». Malice, envy, strife, see, but that’s where it got to.
83 Now, see, Jacob thought the same thing. But in fear, one night, of his own life, desperation took a hold of him, when he thought that, “Just across that river yonder, my brother is waiting to kill me. He is going to.” See, the birthright that he had gotten, was the thing that was going to cause his death.
And sometimes that very thing that you receive, as the Holy Spirit, It is, and are born again of the Spirit, if you don’t watch, that same thing will condemn you at the end. That’s right. The very waters that saved Noah, condemned the world. The thing that—that you would call fanaticism might be the very thing that condemns you at the end of the road.
[JBP] And there he writes on the left:
[WSS] «What you judge as fanaticism will condemn you in the end».
And here at the front he also writes:
[WSS] «What you judge as fanaticism might be the very thing that condemns you at the end of the road».
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Also in the message “WHY LITTLE BETHLEHEM,” let’s see here on page 34, 34 below it says:
[63-1214 - Why Little Bethlehem,” p. 28, paras. 144-147] [Bible Study #244, 7/Oct/2022 (Friday), pp. 49-51]
144 “If a man abide in Me and I in him, if ye abide in Me and My Words in you.” Abiding, not just jumping from place to place, and swapping your fellowship card from a oneness to a twoness and a threeness, and back to a Presbyterian, Lutheran. “Ye abide in Me,” and He is the Word, “My Words abide in you! Don’t be afraid of eight hundred or eight million. I’ll stand by your side. I desire to drink from that Well again.”
[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «In the 2nd Coming».
And on the right he writes: [WSS] «I’ll stand by His side».
And on the left he also writes: [WSS] «I desire to drink from that Well again».
145 God’s going to have a people that will drink from that Well! ([JBP] And there he writes): [WSS] «there will be a people who will drink from that Well». ([JBP] From which well? From the Second Coming of the Lord). Hallelujah! You might think I’m crazy, and maybe I am, then I’m crazy about Jesus Christ and His Word. If I have to be called a fool, let me be called a fool for His Word. I’ve never been against the men in them organizations. I’m against that system that’s barring the Word of God out. Let’s cut, warriors. Stand by us. Let’s go into that Well. He is our Bethlehem.
[JBP] There he draws a Cornerstone and the ages.
And on the left he writes: [WSS] «HIM».
146 These old cisterns, the World Council of Churches organizing now. Let’s restore the fresh Word of God, not a denomination. Let’s not take a creed, that’s old stagnated cisterns that fell forty years ago, twenty years ago, thirty years ago ([JBP] there he writes): [WSS] «1962», or either last year. I want God’s Word that’s promised for today ([JBP] and there he draws on the right side a Cornerstone). That’s the drink He wants me to have, this Word today! It’s a little Bethlehem, it’s rejected.
[JBP] At the top he writes: [WSS] «Water = The Word promised for today».
[WSS] «Bethlehem = The Word promised for today», he also writes.
147 It’s, I know, it’s just like, you think, “Well, if my…” Yes, that’s right, they thought He should be born in Jerusalem. They thought He should be born where their denomination heads was. But He turned by all that. He come to the name Bethlehem, for that’s what He was. Hallelujah! He’s not coming for Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian or Pentecostals. He’s coming ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «through» for the Bride, Jesus Christ. That’s who He’s coming for. It may seem strange to you, but believe It!
[JBP] Now look, what that represents at this time is that tumor that that Church has, which is removed by the spoken Word.
Before the storm gets stronger: May that tumor be removed from the group of our brother Branham!, may that Church be healed and return to the Word! And may they believe it! That is my petition; it is a spoken Word.
Now notice how that group has to come in at this time before the 144,000. Everything is intertwining for every group, but there is a group of the seventh age that will come in, that will go up, and there is a number too. In other words, they have to enter through the Door of the Second Coming of the Lord; and they will enter at this time.
Now notice, right below that he writes:
[WSS] «Joseph = Jesus coming with His group today».
[JBP] In other words, right there where he had written about the tumor, what we read there; which we had already read in a writing… (we had already read it, but so that it’s here too), look, in this writing, he also writes:
[WSS] «Hope (who was brother Branham’s first wife) — The dead in Christ».
«Billy Paul — (and he doesn’t write there)».
«Sharon Rose — The dead in Christ».
«Meda — the Church-Bride in the 7th age, and then in the gap between the 7th age and the 8th and eternal Age of the Cornerstone».
«Rebekah — Church».
«Sarah — Church».
«Joseph = a type of the 2nd Coming of Jesus Christ».
[JBP] Now notice everything that brother Branham’s family represents; which, each one of those definitions shows the Work that God carried out in the ages and the one that He is carrying out in this time, what it represents and it also shows what’s still left there, because she was healed.
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now look, our brother William continues to say [“THE GREAT VOICE OF TRUMPET IN THE EXODUS OF THE LAST DAY”]:
[WSS] Notice, he didn’t pray, he wasn’t praying or laying hands on her ([JBP] he was at a distance: he was in Jeffersonville and she was in Tucson), rather, he spoke that creative Word, he spoke the tumor out of existence, and that is what happened; and before the doctor laid a hand, it disappeared; she felt that manifestation in her.
But look, he had already spoken it during the night; and in the morning, the next day, she obtained the results; because the Word was: before the doctor laid a hand on her; in other words, when the doctor went to put his hand, the tumor disappeared then.
And another one ([JBP] and here’s the fifth one) of the occasions was when he spoke squirrels into existence. He went to hunt squirrels and there were no squirrels; and God reminded him of the passage in Mark: “If you have faith and say to this mountain: move from here to there, it will move; and nothing will be impossible.” [Matthew 21:19-22, Mark 11:22-23] It doesn’t say: “If you pray for God to move it,” but: “If you say to this mountain.”
God reminded him of that Scripture, and He says to him: “How many squirrels do you want?” Brother Branham tells Him: “Five.” And then the Lord says to him, the Angel says to him: “Well, say where you want them, speak the Word.” And he stated: he spoke that one should appear in such-and-such a place; it appeared and he hunted it. And he went and looked for it, he saw that it bled, and he says: “It is not a vision, [for] because visions don’t bleed.” In other words, to him it was a new experience (the first time; because that was repeated many times: let’s say about 3 or 6 times, or so, on different occasions).
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] In the message “I HAVE HEARD BUT NOW I SEE,” he narrates it there… Let’s read a little there so you can see all of that and the experience that brother Branham had there. Look, on page 25 it says:
[65-1127E - “I Have Heard But Now I See,” pp. 20-23, paras. 121-150] [Bible Study #247, 16/Oct/2022 (Sunday), pp. 7-14]
121 Moses, a prophet, knowing he had access to God, was inspired, and he said, “Stand still and you’ll see the salvation of God; for the Egyptians you’re looking at today, you’ll never see them again.” How did he know it was going to happen? How did he know? He didn’t know what he spoke.
[JBP] There on the right he draws a Star of David.
122 But as immediately after he spoke it, God told him how to do it. Said, “Moses, don’t cry to Me, take your staff ([JBP] and there he draws another Star of David on the right) in your hand and stretch it out over the sea, and tell the children of Israel to ‘Walk!’” Amen!
[JBP] And on the left he writes: [WSS] «The Staff = The Word».
123 The inspiration! That’s the way it strikes you if you’re sick. That’s the way it strikes you if you’re afflicted. Something’s revealed to you, and you see that it’s been revealed, you speak up, “I’m healed!”
[JBP] There he writes: [WSS] «Speak what’s been revealed».
And he draws a Star of David.
124 Then God tells you what to do, “Rise up and start walking.” Amen! Then it’s all over, when you can do it that way. That’s the way God does it, then you see God manifested through yourself.
[JBP] And he draws another Star of David on the right.
125 It was God that told him to do it. Now, then, all that was present, all of Israel that was present saw the inspiration that struck Moses. They seen God, with their own eye, blow that water back from one side to the other. And that Pillar of Fire led them right across the—the sea. He heard of God, then they seen God.
[JBP] He writes: [WSS] «The Pillar of Fire», on the left.
126 Joshua was in a hour of crisis, when the armies was routed, and the sun was going down. Joshua was a prophet ([JBP] there he writes): [WSS] «Joshua = the prophet», and he knew that if them armies ever had a chance to unite again and come against him, he would lose more man, so in that hour of crisis when something had to be done…There’s only one thing, if he could keep them running, he’d route them, every one, down. But there wasn’t enough light to do it, so Joshua stood, raised his hands, he said, “Sun, stand still! And moon, hang over Ajalon till I get through with this battle.” And the sun stood still ([JBP] and he draws a Star of David on the right). They heard Joshua speak, and then they seen God, with their own eyes, in action. True!
127 See, of course, it was a paradox to see something that seems to be impossible, yet it’s true. But, “The sun stood still,” says the Bible. I don’t know what you people think, that thinks the world was run, now; but, anyhow, “the sun stood still.” Perhaps Joshua never had tried to figure out how he was going to—to do it, how God was going to do it, the only thing that he said was, “Sun stand still!” He said it, perhaps not knowing what he was saying, because it was God that give it to him, and He worked.
128 Same thing in Mark 11:23, “If you say to this mountain ([JBP] there he writes): [WSS] «Mark 11:22-25» ‘be moved,’ and don’t doubt in your heart, but believe that what you said will come to pass, you can have what you said.” But you can’t stand there fumble in your mind and say it, you’ve got to be inspired to say it. Amen!
[JBP] Now notice, he writes there:
[WSS] «To speak the Word and for it to happen, you’ve got to be inspired by God».
[JBP] May God inspire all of you!, all those who are listening to me in this place and in every place where my voice is heard. May God inspire the elect, the Bride, at this end time! And may God do the Work.
129 Excuse the expression; but that day, setting there in that woods (and God’s my Judge, and I could fall dead on this pulpit), when that Scripture had stumped me all my life ([JBP] Which Scripture? Mark 11)… setting there that morning in the woods, and I was thinking on that, and that Voice spoke to me, He said, “That Scripture is like all Scriptures, It’s true.”
130 And I thought, “Well, how could it be?”
131 And He said, “You’re…” I said…He said, “Speak, and it will be that way. Don’t doubt It.”
[JBP] He draws a Cornerstone on the right.
And on the left he draws a Star of David.
132 And I was talking to Somebody, setting way out in the woods. No squirrels, been there for three days ([JBP] he circles “three days”), there’s no squirrels there. And I was setting in a sycamore thicket. Squirrels don’t even come…anyone that hunt squirrels, know they’re not in sycamore. And I had been setting there; and wind blowing real hard, about ten o’clock in the morning, and I was thinking again.
133 And It said, “You’re hunting, and you need squirrels just the same as Abraham needed a ram.”
134 I thought, “That’s always told me the Truth, but this sounds funny.” And I got up from where I was setting, looked all around, “Where is that Person that was talking to me?” Nothing; wind just blowing real hard. And I thought, “Could I have fell asleep and dreamed that? No, I wasn’t asleep. I was setting up against the tree there…
[JBP] Now, that is where he writes: [WSS] «The creation of squirrels: The spiritual food for the Age of the Cornerstone, in the Dispensation of the Kingdom, by the spoken Word of the Gospel of the Kingdom with the Rapturing Faith».
[134] No, I wasn’t asleep. I was setting up against the tree there, watching, supposed to pick up Brother Wood and Brother Sothmann back there, just in a little bit, around ten o’clock in the morning. Farmers all out there working, gathering their corn.”
135 And I heard It again, say, “You are hunting, and you need game. How many do you need?”
[JBP] And he draws a Star of David on the left.
136 And I thought, “Now, I don’t want to overdo this, I’m just going to ask for three, three squirrels. I want young, three red squirrels. I want them.”
[JBP] That is, with all the specifications: “I want them red and I want them young.”
137 He said, “Then speak about it.”
[JBP] God’s prophet is being inspired there.
138 And I said, “I am going to get three young red squirrels.”
[JBP] Just like today the elect of God will say: I am going to get my eternal and glorified body! Young! That is already a spoken Word, that can’t be taken back. You will be transformed! Because you have believed that promise.
139 He said, “Which a-way will they come?”
140 “Well,” I thought, “I’ve went this far, there’s Something talking to me here.”
[JBP] Hehe! He says.
There he draws… where it says: “He said: ‘Then speak about it,’” he draws a Star of David.
And he writes: [WSS] «Speak».
[140] Just the same as you hear me talking.
[JBP] Meaning, like that, that way, was the way that he was hearing it; it was a conversation that he had there.
[140] And God in Heaven, with this Bible over my heart, knows that that’s true. And He…And I said, “Well,…” I picked out a ridiculous place, an old dry limb hanging out of there (about fifty yards, where my rifle was shot in).
141 I said, “The first one will be right there,” and there he was.
142 I rubbed my eyes and looked back (I turned my head), and I thought, “I don’t want to shoot a vision.” So I looked around again, and there set the squirrel ([JBP] in other words, he rubbed his eyes, he turned around: “No, hold on.” When he looked again, the squirrel was there). I throwed a shell up in my gun, aimed up, and I could see his black eye, young red squirrel. I thought, “I—I…maybe I’m sleeping, I—I’ll wake up in a few minutes. See, I’m dreaming about this.” Well, I leveled down, shot the squirrel and it dropped off the limb. I thought, “Well, I don’t know.” I thought, “Well, should I go over and look for it?” And—and I walked over there, and there it laid. I picked it up and blood run out of it. A vision don’t bleed ([JBP] what our brother William is speaking about), you know. So I picked it up, and it was a squirrel ([JBP] on the left he draws a Star of David). I got real numb, all over.
143 And I looked around, I said, “God, that was You!” I said, “Thank You, for this. Now I’ll go out and…”
[JBP] In other words, he was leaving: “Now I’ll go out; with this one, I’m leaving.”
144 He said, “But you said! Do you doubt what you said? You said you’d get ‘three.’...”
[JBP] Now, he said three? Then all three had to appear and the prophet had to speak all three, one wasn’t enough because He said to him: “Whatever you say. How many do you want?” and he said: “Three,” so, he had to speak all three.
[144] “…Now where will the next one come from?”
145 I thought, “Well, if I’m dreaming, I’m going to continue on.”
146 So I—I said…I picked out an old post over there, of a tree that was all wrapped up with this here poison ivy. You never get a squirrel in that. So I said, “The next one will come right out of that poison ivy,” and there set that young red squirrel looking right at me. I set my gun down, and rubbed my eyes. Turned around again, I thought…There he set, turned his head sideways. I shot the squirrel, and then I started to go home.
[JBP] And there he writes: [WSS] «The creation of squirrels» (on the right hand side).
147 But said ([JBP] he was going - he was already leaving), “You said ‘three’! Do you doubt what you said?”
148 I said, “No, Lord, I don’t doubt what I said, for You’re confirming.”
This is one Scripture that stumped me: “Not if I say, but if you say.” Not if Jesus said it, but if you say it yourself.
149 And I thought, “Somehow I’ve broke into that channel, and I know He’s here because I’m almost beside myself.” I thought, “I’ll make this one ridiculous, sure enough.”
[JBP] And he draws a Star of David.
And he writes: [WSS] «The Channel».
And he writes: [WSS] «Mark 11:22-23».
[JBP] Oh, may we all break into that channel! May we find ourselves in that channel!
[149] I said, “They’d be a red squirrel come down off that hill, come right down this way, and right by me, and go out, and set on that limb, and look down there at that farmer.”
[JBP] Now he’s putting it: a squirrel, not only young, red, but also obeying him, that is, making gestures and looking at the farmer; that’s already dominion over the animal.
[149] Here he come down the hill, went right out, and sat, looked at the farmer. And I shot him.
150 Satan said to me ([JBP] then the enemy starts…), “You know what? The woods is just full of them, now.” And I set there till twelve o’clock, and not another thing happened. It goes to show that when God…He’s the very Creator of Heavens and earth!
[JBP] And there he writes: [WSS] «The creation of squirrels», on the left going upwards.
[JBP] Now all of that is the sample of what he said: [WMB] “What you have seen partially will be manifested in the fullness of its power when the squeeze comes down,” he tells us in the book of Quotations in an excerpt.
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Our brother William continues to say [“THE GREAT VOICE OF TRUMPET IN THE EXODUS OF THE LAST DAY”]:
[WSS] Now, on those different occasions, notice, he spoke the Word, he said: “let a squirrel appear there;” it appeared, He hunted it. And the Angel said to him: “And now, where do you want the other one to appear?” and so he chose a difficult place, where squirrels it wasn’t common for squirrels to be, and then He said: “Let it appear in that tree,” and it appeared, he hunted it, he went to look for it, and it bled.
That is the creative Word that created the Heavens and the Earth, now being placed in a man to give us a sample of what God will do in this end time when He adopts a messenger that He has in His Program to adopt at the Last Day, a dispensational prophet, the prophet of the Dispensation of the Kingdom, who will eat the Title Deed, and therefore, will be restored to all that Adam and Eve lost in the fall. And it will be the first time that Jesus Christ adopts a human being; and then He will adopt the rest of the members of His Church who have departed and those who are alive at this end time; but that adoption will start with someone.
Now, notice how God gave us the sample through Reverend William Branham, just as He also gave us the sample through Moses, and through Jesus, and through Elijah and other prophets. But in Reverend William Branham, the sample of what God will do at this end time was more prominent.
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now look, there is a sign which, when it happens, those ministries, in that time, will already…, notice what it tells us here, in this message: “THE SIGN FOR THE UNBELIEVING GENERATION,” preached on April 4, 1999 here in Puerto Rico, it says:
THE SIGN FOR THE UNBELIEVING GENERATION Dr. William Soto Santiago Sunday, April 4, 1999 (Second activity) Cayey, Puerto Rico
And there also will be another sign that will have to do with death and resurrection, which will be the sign of the death and resurrection of the Two Olive Trees, according to Revelation, chapter 11, verse 3 to 7; and that sign will even be seen on television.
But with that sign that they will see it will not be for their salvation; with that sign of the resurrection will come such a great earthquake that thousands of people will die; it says that about seven thousand will die there in the city [Revelation 11:13], and it is unknown how many more will die throughout the world if the whole world is shaken by it; as it happened in the crucifixion of Christ, where there was a great earthquake, where the stones opened and there was a resurrection [Matthew 27:51-53].
Let’s leave that sign alone there, because that sign will be seen by the unbelievers.
But when that happens, remember, the Two Olive Trees will already be adopted; that is why that resurrection can take place…
[JBP] Notice, it is the messenger who, after Jesus, he will be the next messenger who, while he is alive, will be able to lay down his life and resurrect after three days. No messenger after Jesus has fulfilled that; only the last messenger, the messenger of the Dispensation of the Kingdom.
[WSS] … just as Christ was already adopted when He died and then He could resurrect.
[JBP] When He resurrected, He resurrected in an eternal and glorified body, and there He couldn’t die anymore. One doesn’t obtain a glorified body to die, because in the glorified body there is no sin, therefore, by making Himself sin in the First Coming of the Lord, He was able to lay down His life on the Cross.
[WSS] Let’s leave that little part alone there, since that is for another stage. Let’s make the most of our time in this pre-adoption part, seeing the signs of this end time, recognizing them, and thus being aware and prepared to be transformed in this end time.
[JBP] Now look, in a writing, there he write:
[WSS] «No religious leader (prophesied) (said) that he would die and would resurrect after three (3) days».
[JBP] In His First Coming, the only One who spoke this way was Jesus. And in His Second Coming, the instrument is the only one who has said that after three days he will resurrect: Revelation, chapter 11.
The Coming of the Son of Man with His Angels, that is, with the ministries of Moses and Elijah, is the second person (unlike all the religious leaders in the world), he will be the second person —in addition to Jesus— who has said that after three and a half days, according to the Scripture, He will resurrect. It is as simple as that.
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now look in the book of Quotations on page 29, paragraph 244 there he shows us in this excerpt and the writing that he put there, where it speaks of these squirrels; it also says:
[59-1115 - “My New Ministry,” pp. 13-14, paras. 96-97, 101-102] [Bible Study #214, 24/June/2022 (Friday), pp. 22-24 / Bible Study #313, 4/June/2023 (Sunday), pp. 19-20 / Bible Study #407, 28-2/Apr/2024 (Sunday), pp. 57-58]
244 - Brother Branham speaks about the creation of squirrels:
“96 Something moved back, and say, ‘Say what you will and it shall be given to you.’
97 I said, ‘Lord, are You changing my ministry? Is this the change You been speaking of? Is this what it’s coming to? Is this what it’ll be? Something in that little house that I saw in the vision, is this it?’
98 Just then a real deep, sweet anointing of the Holy Spirit raised me, like, off of my feet, and said, ‘Say what you will, and it shall be given unto you.’”
[JBP] Now, there he… an arrow comes out pointing down; because at the bottom, in the corner, he writes: [WSS] «The Tent», and a Cornerstone.
[JBP] In other words, he was raised, taken out of the Earth, to an Heavenly Age: to the Age of the Cornerstone.
244 - (...) [101] I said, ‘Lord God, if that be You, and this is a sign that You’re fixing to change my ministry from those visions, to something greater, that I’ve looked for so long,’ I said, ‘let it come to pass that You’ll answer my prayer.’ (...)
[102] I said, ‘But there will be a red squirrel come out on the end of that limb and set down there, and I’ll shoot him from here.’”
[JBP] And there he writes: [WSS] «Squirrels created and The Tent» (he writes at the bottom).
And above he writes: [WSS] «Mark 11:21-23 / The squirrels created / “Say what you will and it’ll be done”».
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] It continues to say here [“THE GREAT VOICE OF TRUMPET IN THE EXODUS OF THE LAST DAY”]:
[WSS] At one point Reverend William Branham stopped and he didn’t… he already had a few squirrels; and the Lord says to him: “How many did you ask for? Where do you want the other one to appear? Didn’t you want five?” And he continued to speak the Word and continued to hunt squirrels where there were no squirrels; by the creative Word they came into existence and he hunted them. Just as the apostles caught fish where there were no fish; but Christ by the creative Word spoke the Word, and said to cast the net to the right and they would find; therefore He created them, and they caught them [John 21:1-6].
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Look, in the message “PERFECT FAITH,” it tells us on page 24 at the bottom, it says:
[63-0825E - “Perfect Faith,” pp. 22-23, paras. 149-151] [Bible Study #201, 8/May/2022 (Sunday), pp. 16-21]
149 Now, when the same God comes to you, and is pleased to dwell in you, pleased to honor your word, what your decision is,…What was Joshua’s decision? “Stand still, sun!” And it stood there. Amen! Sure! What was Moses’ decision? Held his stick over the—a river like that, then called for it to “Open!” And it opened! See, whatever you ask. “And if you say to this mountain, ‘Be moved,’ and don’t doubt, see, in your heart, but believe that what you’ve said will come to pass, you can have what you said.” That puts you back in the Word.
[JBP] There is a part where he says, in some place [WMB] “create worlds,” something like that”
And he writes on the right: [WSS] «God fulfills what we speak».
And above that paragraph he writes: [WSS] «Moses and Joshua spoke the Word».
And he also writes: [WSS] «What Jesus said would happen; and He said: “If you say to this mountain”».
And there at the end: “That puts you back in the Word,” right next to that, after that paragraph, he writes: [WSS] «The spoken Word».
[149] Now, that’s not skim milk. See? It puts you back. I know it’s going to jumps right over top of you, maybe, see, because It can’t anchor. But real, genuine faith catches that, right now.
[JBP] And there he writes: [WSS] «it’s going to jump right over them» (he writes that twice; he also writes it on the left, going upwards).
150 I’ve seen it, friend. Here’s this Bible laying open before me. I’ve seen it happen ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «the spoken Word», and I know it’s the Truth. I know, God in Heaven knows, that I might not live through to finish this message, but I—I know that it happened. I’ve seen it myself. I’m a witness of that Word being fulfilled, that I know It is the Truth: say it, and stand there and see the Creator bring a living creature into existence, right in presence of your eyes…
[JBP] And that will also happen to every elect of God, those who will resurrect will appear in front of our eyes, our loved ones will appear in front of our eyes.
And at the top he writes: [WSS] «Where should we be?».
[150] …you shake your head and wonder; and then look around and seen Him bring another one, just exactly like it ([JBP] he is speaking about the creation of squirrels again), because you said so; and turn over here and say, “There’ll be another one there,” and look, and there it is! Now, that’s the truth.
151 Oh, where should we be? There’s Perfect Faith. No vision, “Just speak the Word,” never saw the squirrel. He just said this Scripture, what it was, and “Speak it, and don’t doubt it; but what you say, it’ll be there.” And I took God at His Word…
[JBP] You take Him at His Word! If He said that: “Whatever you say, that’ll be done,” accept God at His own Word!
[151] …and it was there. That’s right. That’s just as powerful… And friend, as your pastor, that’s just as powerful as it was when Joshua stopped the sun; because the sun was already there, the elements was moving, and he stopped the movement. But this ([JBP] meaning, in the case of the creation of squirrels), He brought something there that wasn’t there, He created! I’m so glad to be acquainted with the God that can take the dust of the earth, some day, without anything, and call me back to life again, that same faith, after I been planted in the grave.
[JBP] Did you see that? Meaning, that is the Word being spoken by a prophet.
And there he writes on the right side: [WSS] «Brother Branham’s resurrection».
[JBP] And such will be the resurrection of our brother William Soto Santiago; and such will be the resurrection of our parents, of our brothers, of our children (if they have departed), of a loved one; it will be by the Word being spoken to life, where there is nothing, there will be no dust or anything, but by the spoken Word they will be brought to life, they will be resurrected in eternal and glorified bodies.
A creation by the spoken Word will be made for the resurrection to take place; and a creation of an eternal and glorified body will be made for our transformation. Our bodies will be changed, he says: [WMB] “gray hair will go out,” it will be a transformation that you will feel: [WMB] “...the wrinkles will fall away. Oh! Changed in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye,” and he says: [WMB] “And we’ll meet our beloved brethren.”*
*[60-1211M - “The Ten Virgins, And The Hundred And Forty-Four Thousand Jews,” p. 26, para. 136]
Now, in order to meet them there must be - there must have been a change in you, there has to be something that makes that dimension and that divine anointing come down and allows you to see them, so that you are then transformed. Notice that there is a mechanism, there is a way.
He writes there: [WSS] «There was no vision; just speak the Word and the squirrels = it’s the 3rd Pull».
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Our brother William continues to say [“THE GREAT VOICE OF TRUMPET IN THE EXODUS OF THE LAST DAY”]:
[WSS] Now, we can see what will be happening when the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone and of the Dispensation of the Kingdom, is adopted; and there comes the adoption for all the elect of God of this end time as well; and everything that Adam and Eve lost in the fall, we will all have it restored.
And the Church as a Mystical Body of believers, will have all the Power that the Church lost in times past restored; all that Power that was seen manifested in the apostles will be restored to the Church ([JBP] where he said that the apostolic days would return)* and all the Power that Adam and Eve lost will be restored in and to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; and we will all be restored to eternal life with eternal bodies.
*Study “The apostolic teaching in the Tent,” 18/Aug/2022 (Thursday), pp. 16-18: 57-0518 - “Stand Still,” p. 19, para. 50 - [WSS] «Apostolic teaching in the Tent». [WSS] «The Tent and the apostolic Teaching». / 63-0825E - “Perfect Faith,” p. 4, paras. 18-19 - [WSS] «That the Church arrives at the place…» «…where they can see the apostolic times. It is at hand». / Quotations, p. 111, para. 970: 63-0825E - “Perfect Faith,” p. 4, paras. 19 - [WSS] «The apostolic times».
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] And in this message “A MAN WHO CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT,” “THERE IS A MAN HERE WHO CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT,” on page 46, there it tells us:
[63-1229M - “There Is A Man Here That Can Turn On The Light,” pp. 38-39, paras. 220-223] [Bible Study #201, 8/May/2022 (Sunday), pp. 14-16]
[220] Now watch. Listen close. Get on your…I pray that God will open your heart and your mind, to understanding, so that you’ll understand without saying it’s too much here. Notice. He said one day…
Let’s see some of the “great” work He done. Let’s just stop for just a couple things. Let’s think.
One time, He said, “You feed them something to eat.”
They said, “We have nothing.”
Said, “What have you got? Bring Me what you’ve got.”
And they said, “We have five barley loaves and two fishes.”
He said, “Bring them to Me.”
221 And He took the original five barley loaves and begin to break the loaves. And, from the original, He made bread. It fed five thousand. Is that right? [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] Then He said, and He got a fish, “Hand Me the fish.” It was a fish, to begin with. And He took off, that fish, another fish and another fish, and fed five thousand. Is that right? [“Amen.”]
But in the last days He had nothing ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «the Thunders weren’t written». He just spoke ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «thundered», and said, “Say it’ll be there,” and it was there, without anything in it ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «the revelation of the Thunders came without having anything to base it on». He never had a squirrel; there was none there. He just said, “Let there be,” and there was. See? Oh, His Word is infallible, and It has to be fulfilled.
[JBP] And there he writes on the left: [WSS] «The squirrels = The Seals, the Thunders, the loaves and the fish».
222 I could tell you things that would shake you. See? It’s there when He says it’s there. Let Him say it. See, just exactly.
223 See, the East, the West here has come back and met the East. It was Moses, even picked up sand, and said, “Let there be fleas,” and so forth like that, “upon the earth.” ([JBP] In other words, he took the dust [Dr. JBP simulates taking dust and throwing it –Ed.]: ‘Let there be fleas!’). But in this last day He doesn’t take anything; see, just the Word. “Let it be,” and it is.
[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Squirrels — speak».
And he writes on the left: [WSS] «East and West».
[223] “Let it be,” and it is. What is said, that’s the way it’ll be.
I want to testify of some of those things tonight, see, see, of what’s happened, that you can see He is still God. His Words cannot…
“These works that I do shall you also, and greater than this shall you do. I took a fish to make a fish; you don’t even have to have a fish.” See? He is still God, is still the same Son. The same Son of God that took a fish off of a fish, it’s the same Son of God today. “These works that I do shall you also. Even greater than this will you do.” It’ll be magnified, “Greater than this shall you do.” And people refuse to see it. Huh! “Greater works!”
[JBP] And he writes there: [WSS] «Looking to Jesus».
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] Now our brother William continues to say here [“THE GREAT VOICE OF TRUMPET IN THE EXODUS OF THE LAST DAY”]:
[WSS] That is why it is so important to be hearing the Great Voice of Trumpet at the Last Day Exodus; because all those blessings come to those who will be hearing the Great Voice of Trumpet, the Voice of Christ, in the Exodus of the Last Day.
[Dr. Jose B. Perez] And there is also a writing that he left us in a notebook, where he says:
[WSS] «Eagle food.
The food of the Eagles of the Last Day.
The eagle kills and eats.
The squirrels created by the 3rd Pull manifested in William Marrion Branham (and above he writes) [the eagle prophet], and which he hunted and ate cooked, are a type and figure of the Word revealed under the 3rd Pull, it is spiritual food for the prophet, the Message of William Marrion Branham and his group, and for the messenger of the Last Day and his group, along with everything that God reveals at the Last Day through His Eagle Messenger for His people».
[JBP] And below he writes:
[WSS] «Rabbit — for the age».
[WSS] «Chicken — for the Pentecostal age of Laodicea».
[JBP] But notice, the squirrel is that hidden Manna, it’s the Word being brought, being created, which are the Thunders.
“THE MANIFESTATIONS OF THE POWER OF GOD.”
We have seen in some places…; because there are so many places where we have been told about these manifestations of the power of God where brother Branham narrated everything that happened to him in each one of them, and how it was; and we have touched on some parts to see what at this end time would be all of that magnified and without limitations.
“THE MANIFESTATIONS OF THE POWER OF GOD.”
Let’s stand and that way we can sing a hymn, I don’t know if you already had… they had prepared one that we had sung there in Brazil: “Your Mercy Reached Me;” if the director can call the person who prepared it, I don’t know if Sharon prepared it. We can sing that song; and this way we glorify God on this occasion, and thank Him for His Word that He has given us.
“Your mercy reached me.”
YOUR MERCY REACHED ME
It is a joy and a great privilege
to be able to receive the Anointed One, the Messiah.
At this time Your mercy reached me,
for it pleased You this way.
// It is the Anointed One, the Lord, it is the Great I Am,
giving us the Rapturing Faith and Transformation.
I receive the Messiah, the Anointed One of God.
I receive the fulfillment
of the Second Coming of the Lord. //
[JBP] Be sincere with the Lord, and say to Him: “I have received You, Lord, in Your Second Coming, as the fulfillment of what You promised would be in the midst of Your Church, and would be what would give the Church-Bride, what would give me, the Rapturing Faith.”
I have seen Your Glory, Lord,
([JBP] Manifest Yourself, Lord!)
and my eyes were opened,
and I see what the fourth Elijah saw.
I have seen Your glory, Lord,
and my eyes were opened,
and I believe what the Archangel Gabriel announced.
// Thank You, Lord, because I believe in God’s Voice of Trumpet,
in His Second Coming,
in our Anointed One today.
Blessed is he that comes in the Name of the Lord.
I receive our Jose
as my Claimer//
I receive our Jose
as my King, as Lion.
I receive our Jose
as my Claimer.
[JBP] Are you willing to identify yourself by raising your hand?
We have all accepted the fulfillment of the Coming of the Lord. “Whosoever shall confess Me before men, I will also confess him before My Father; but whosoever shall deny Me, I will also deny him.” That was in the First Coming of the Lord, and that is in the Second Coming of the Lord.
The Pillar of Fire was seen in a Tent: This is the Tent!
He was seen in a place where there were people: This is the people!
He wanted to come down to that place: We came down and we are here! We are the ones. We are the people that he saw would be receiving Him in His Coming.
“The Pillar of Fire,” if you have it there.
Break into the channel, just yield yourself. Let go of the pride, the boasting, the arrogance, and surrender to Him, and let Him work in your life.
How could you desire and want the transformation, and long for the transformation, if you don’t receive Him, if you don’t open your door to Him, if you don’t say to Him: “Lord, take all unbelief away from me. I just want to see You, I want to look beyond. Let me see You!” And He will show you that He is there. Just surrender yourself to Him, because it is the Pillar of Fire.
133 - THE PILLAR OF FIRE
1
The Pillar of Fire,
which spoke to Moses from that bush,
which went with Israel through the wilderness.
and parted Jordan for them towards freedom…
2
The Pillar of Fire,
which was with Joshua before His people,
the One who fought and overcame with His great strength,
and took them to the land of milk and honey…
CHORUS
The Pillar of Fire,
which was in the prophets and in Jesus,
which was in His Angel Messenger:
He’s here today! He’s still here today!
The Pillar of Fire,
is speaking to us today through His instrument,
He is preparing us for our adoption.
He is God Himself, the Great I AM!
[JBP] Little by little we are going into a stage where you will have to make a decision; because this is an individual affair.
Whose side are you taking? Which tree are you eating from? I’m eating from the Tree of Life. I’m taking sides with the Anointed One, where the Pillar of Fire is.
The Work is Him, and It is done by Him, and It is for Him. We are His instruments.
3
The Pillar of Fire,
which will fill this great Temple with Glory,
the One that will perform miracles and wonders,
is becoming incarnate in our lives today.
Back to 2 and CHORUS (2 times)
[JBP] He is the same yesterday, today, and forever; the YHWH, who in His First Coming was known by the name Jesus; but when He ascended into Heaven, He received a new name. And He said that in His Coming He would come with a New Name: it is the Claiming Name.
And just like in order to obtain that theophanic body it was required…, it was a requirement to believe in His Coming!, and under that Name of Redemption; it is a requirement for the transformation: to believe in His Second Coming and in His Claiming Name. God has made it simple.
May God continue to put us in that channel, and may the anointing of the Holy Spirit and His love be fully poured out upon the Church-Bride; and may He continue to prepare us to obtain that promise of our transformation, in that manifestation of the power of God.
And the world will see, in 30 or 40 days, what an adopted child and children of God is and are; children of God with eternal and glorified bodies; which we will get a good taste of here on this Earth, and then we will go to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
“THE FIVE MANIFESTATIONS OF THE POWER OF GOD.”
I desire all those blessings upon everyone who is here, may you all receive them! It doesn’t matter if you are still chewing on it with your back molar, and you are trying to understand or comprehend.
I desire that none of you be a hypocrite. I desire that you be sincere, be sincere with God, and don’t be around for the sake of appearances. God is watching you, and you can’t hide from Him.
May God continue to help us to be sincere with Him; and may the Church here in Puerto Rico be sincere with the Lord, and be in the channel and in line, so that He may continue to work as He has been doing.
But we still have a ways to go. We must keep pressing, pressing, until we reach that Church that Reverend William Branham saw; and likewise, in every place that is hearing this broadcast on this occasion, and those who will later read this conference, this chat, on this occasion.
“THE MANIFESTATIONS OF THE POWER OF GOD.”
Let’s leave with us right away our dear brother and friend, Dr. William Soto Santiago.
