Scripture: Revelation 1:10-20
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*
Revelation 1:17
17 And when I saw him, I fell at his feet as dead. And he laid his right hand upon me, saying unto me, Fear not; I am the first and the last:
18 I am he that liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore, Amen; and have the keys of hell and of death.
THE KEYS IN THE HANDS OF GOD
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*
**62-1007** - "The Key To The Door,” p. 8, paras. 42-43
42 And there are people like would try to play a piano, and they…or music. They don’t know just how they do it, but they could go there and the teacher might take lesson after lesson, and they would never learn it. They just cannot hold that key to that mystery, how the rhythm and the sounds of the tuning and so forth rings out. It takes the key.
43 And mathematics, there’s a key to mathematic, that you just have to get the hang of it. I’ve seen men that could take four rows of figures, and put their fingers, each one of their fingers on a row of figures, and just come right down like that for maybe five or six figures deep, and put the answer at the bottom. Figuring four rows at a time, anywhere from one to nine. Well, I have a hard time figuring one row, ’less I got enough fingers and toes to count, to—to get one row figured out. I just never could find that key. But, you see, some of them just has that key to it, they know how to do it.
JBP
[WSS] «He has the revelation, the knowledge».
Therefore, it shows us there that a key is a revelation, it’s knowledge about something.

HE THAT DESCENDED IS THE SAME ALSO THAT ASCENDED UP FAR ABOVE ALL HEAVEN
(Ministers’ Meeting)

Christ has the keys of the Kingdom of the Heavens, and He gave them to Peter [Matthew 16:18-19], but He also has the keys of David or the key of David; and that is for this end time, to be able to open the door of the Kingdom of David. And we will see that in more detail, perhaps when we see it being fulfilled, of how that will be.
And He has the keys of hell and death as well…
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*
**62-0119** - “An Ensign,” pp. 16-17, para. 115
115 And a Christian that’s dead, and buried, and raised with Him in His resurrection, in Heavenly places! See, “If we are dead with Him, then we’re also raised with Him,” for the Body goes where the Head is. And He is the Head, and this is the Body. And not will be, but, “Now we are seated together in Heavenly places in Christ Jesus,” with every power of the devil conquered and under His feet. Authority! Authority, there is the ensign. That’s the hand that lifts up, that counts.

*Dr. Jose B. Perez*
WSS
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*
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
In other words, the people of God at this end time have nothing to worry about if one of our beloved brethren, elect of God, who are believers, depart. They don’t need to worry because in the midst of the Church-Bride today is the One who has the keys, who will speak the Word at this end time and they will resurrect.
Everyone depends on that instrument, who is the fulfillment of the Coming of the Lord. As simple as that.
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*
WSS
And He will also be able to bind the devil with a great chain and cast him out…
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*
**57-0420** - “The Entombment,” p. 12, para. 88
88 Now, He didn’t have the keys to the Kingdom, ’cause He give them to Peter; we get all that in the morning, in water baptism. But he had the keys to death and hell, and He took them; after His resurrection, He said, “I got the keys of death and hell.” Peter had the keys of the Kingdom. Satan had the keys of death and hell; but now Jesus has got them, He’s Boss.

*Dr. Jose B. Perez*

JBP
Revelation 20:1-3
And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,
And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.”
So, you see, this Angel has the key to the bottomless pit, and He is going to use it. Christ had to take the keys of Hades [and] (of hell) and death, in order to come out, open and come out; and He did. That is why believers in Christ who died are going to [resurrect] be resurrected.
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*
**58-0928E** - “The Serpent's Seed,” p. 6, paras. 36-39
36 And when they begin to hear this, they were cut at their heart. For, they heard a man that didn’t know his ABC’s, yet they had to take notice to him, know he had Something inside of him, burning him up, the Holy Spirit. Stop him? Why, it would be like trying to put a fire out, on a dry building, on a windy day ([JBP] hah!). You couldn’t do it. He was filled with the Holy Spirit. And what did he do now?
37 They said, “Well, men and brethren, what can we do to be saved?”
38 Now watch out, Peter, you have the keys to the Kingdom.
JBP
39 Now, when Jesus rose on the third day, He did not have the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven ([JBP] and there he writes on top, where it says “He did not have the keys,” and he writes): [WSS] «revelation». Did you know that? He said, “I got the keys to death and hell,” but not to the Kingdom, because they had been given to Peter.
JBP
[WSS] «Peter – the Keys of the Kingdom Heaven».
«Moses = The Keys of the Kingdom of God».

Message from Sunday’s study, March 25, 2018
ISRAEL, BEHOLD, THY KING COMETH UNTO THEE
Dr. William Soto Santiago
Sunday, April 9, 2017
Cayey, Puerto Rico
P. 9
JBP
*[The Seals, “The Seventh Seal,” p. 521, paras. 77-79]
Now, many times all the messengers spoke as if it were being fulfilled in them. Now notice that when they would say that those prophecies were being carried out, and that those prophecies were being fulfilled, notice all of that was pointing to and reflecting, in type and figure, what would be the reality.
Today we are not in the prophecies that will be later on, rather we are already in the fulfillment of those prophecies, we are in the reality of those prophecies; we are not speaking about prophecies that will be fulfilled, but rather of prophecies that are already being fulfilled. See how simple everything is?
Everything that the messengers spoke…, up to the last one who came announcing in the midst of the Church, giving the Good Tidings: our beloved brother, Dr. William Soto Santiago, was speaking about this time, and he was speaking about that instrument under Tent, he was speaking about the fulfillment of the Second Coming of the Lord, he was speaking about the Angel who was different from the rest, he was speaking about the Coming of the Son of Man with His Angels, which was not fulfilled in the past ages nor in him; he was indicating, showing the Church-Bride, as he showed the virgin Mary back then, in the First Coming of the Lord [Luke 1:26-38].
He sounded the Trumpet in the First Coming and sounded It in the Second Coming*, announcing the One who would come, that promised Son. See how simple everything is?

“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.

*[2004-09-09 “The only necessary thing”]
Luke 13:22
22 And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.
23 Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them,
24 Strive to enter in at the strait gate ([JBP] he writes on the left there): [WSS] «The Door of the Kingdom is Jesus Christ»; for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.
25 When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:

WSS
“To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.”
JBP
He goes on to say:
And before that it said:
“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.”
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*
**62-0909E** - “In His Presence,” p. 18, paras. 79-81
79 Peter, a fisherman, knowed nothing about fishing…or knowed nothing about God, only thing he probably knowed was how to catch fish. But when he come in the Presence of God, and see the great Creator Who could create fish, when He told him to let down the nets for the draw. There wasn’t any fish there, he just pulled his nets up. But he said, “At Thy Word, Lord. I believe that You’re the Son of God, and if You let ([JBP] and on the left, he writes): [WSS] «Jesus created fish» ([JBP] and many Scriptures there. He goes on to say)…if I let down the net, You told me to do it; at Your Word, because You and Your Word are the same, I let down the net.” And when he begin to pull, he said, “Depart, Lord, I’m a sinful man.” See, a fisherman, after Peter met Christ he was never the same anymore. He, afterwards, was so true to God, he was given the keys to the Kingdom. Yes, sir.
JBP
And on the left he draws a Cornerstone and a Star of David inside.
And he writes there: [WSS] «That’s how it is today in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, in Latin America and the Caribbean».
JBP
[79] He, afterwards, was so true to God, he was given the keys to the Kingdom. Yes, sir.
80 Paul, a self-styled Pharisee, educated and trained in all the religion of the…that there was in the world in that day, one of the highest knowed scholars in the land. But when he come before that Pillar of Fire one day, the God that he had persecuted, ignorantly. He was a Pharisee, he didn’t believe that God was a Man. He knowed God was the Pillar of Fire, It led His people out of Egypt, It had been with them all along. But when he saw this Pillar of Fire, he fell on his face. And he heard a Voice saying, “Saul, why persecutest thou Me?”
Said, “Who are You, Lord?”
He said, “I’m Jesus.” ([JBP] there he writes on the right): [WSS] «Saul» ([JBP] and then): [WSS] «Paul».
81 He was a man, that said, “How have you been baptized?” He had been in the Presence of God. He was a changed man from then on, he had been in the Presence of God. It changes a man.
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*
**64-0322** - “Possessing The Gate Of The Enemy After Trial,” pp. 13-14, paras. 109-115
109 Watch what He did. When He was on earth, He conquered and possessed every gate the enemy had; the Royal Seed. He promised it by the Word. He conquered it. He conquered the gate of sickness, for us. That’s what He come to do. He, remember, sick people, He conquered that gate. You don’t have to conquer it; He conquered it. The other men had to conquer their own gate. But you don’t have to conquer; it’s already conquered. He conquered the gates of sickness. And what did He do when He conquered the gates of sickness? Saying that He would…Whatever you ask on earth, and whatever you’ve bound on earth, He would bind it in Heaven, give us the keys to the gate.
110 He conquered the gate of temptation, by the Word. And the keys was, “Resist the enemy, and he’ll flee from you.”
JBP
110 He conquered the gate of temptation, by the Word. And the keys was, “Resist the enemy, and he’ll flee from you.” He conquered it all; conquered every sickness.
111 He conquered death, and He conquered hell. He conquered death and hell. He conquered what the others couldn’t conquer, because they’re of the natural seed. This is the spiritual Seed. He conquered the gate of the grave, and rose up on the third day, for our justification.
112 “And now we are more than conquerors.” We’re just walk right into it, as an inheritance, “More than conquerors.” Now we are dealing with a defeated enemy ([JBP] understand that well: we are dealing with an already defeated enemy). Sickness is defeated. Death is defeated. Hell is defeated. Everything is defeated. Oh, my! Wish I was twice my size, now maybe I feel twice as good. We are disputing with a conquered enemy.
113 No wonder Paul could say, when they was building a block, to chop his head off, he said, “O death, where is your sting? ([JBP] and there he writes on top): [WSS] «the sin». Show me where you can make me squirmer and scream. Grave, where is your victory, and you think you’ll mold me out there? I’ll point you to an empty one over there; and I am in Him, He’ll raise me up at the last day.” A defeated enemy!
114 The Royal Seed of Abraham! Now, the natural seed could not point to That. But the Royal Seed can conquer, already conquered, for He has gone before us and conquered every gate for us ([JBP] and he writes on the left): [WSS] «Real Seed of Abraham». He is now, after two thousand years, He stands in the midst of us, the Mighty Conqueror. Not only did He conquer sickness…He conquered sickness. He conquered temptation. He conquered every enemy. He conquered death. He conquered hell. He conquered the grave, and rose up again. And two thousand years later, here He stands among us, this afternoon, identifying Himself, the Mighty Conqueror! Amen. He is still here, alive, vindicating His promise, Royal Seed of Abraham! ([JBP] He writes there): [WSS] «2000 years later» ([JBP] on the left) Oh, my! And the enemy shall…
115 “He will conquer the gates of his enemy.” To those, Seed, He stands here alive to vindicate Himself to who? Those predestinated Seeds that can see it.
JBP
We have conquered: notice, in the First Coming of the Lord we already conquered in the spiritual realm; and we will conquer in the physical realm with our transformation.
[115] He conquered that. Who, after his test, of the promise of the Word, they were sealed by the Holy Ghost ([JBP] after what? After the test), into the Body of Christ, to them confirmed (what?) Hebrews 13:8 to be so. They are sealed in there by the Holy Ghost, that Holy Ghost which was by…Abraham foresaw it; by faith he believed it. And now we receive It, looking back to the promise of what He said. And John 14:12 is made confirmed in this last days, by the risen Conqueror, Himself.
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*
[WSS] «The key to the Kingdom of the Heavens, of Heaven (and on the side), and of the Millennial Kingdom of David, Son of David».
And further down, he writes:
[WSS] «The elect will possess the gates of their enemies, they will take the keys of those doors away from their enemies; as it was done by Jesus, who took the keys of hell and of death away from the devil».
Look at how tremendous this is here. I am going to reread this part there:
[WSS] «The elect will possess the gates of their enemies, they will take the keys of those doors away from their enemies; as it was done by Jesus, who took the keys of hell and of death away from the devil».
And on the other page, he writes:
[WSS] «The gates of hell [denominations] will not prevail…».
Like… remember the burrs, or sandburs, or cockleburs, which he wrote are [WSS] «denominations»*, notice how brother Branham pulled them off his pants, before finding himself in the presence of God there, before meeting with the Angel who was different from the rest.
*[Bible Study #433, 28-2/July/2024 (Sunday), pp. 21-24 / Bible Study #494, 28/Feb/2025 (Friday), pp. __-__: The Seals, “The Seventh Seal,” p. 544, paras. 269-270 - [WSS] «cocklebur: tare-burs». [WSS] «denomination».]
Now, he continues to say here:
[WSS] «The gates of hell will not prevail against her, against that Rock, nor against the Church founded upon the Rock: upon the divine revelation for the Dispensation of Grace and the Dispensation of the Kingdom, and the revelation of every age».
JBP
[WSS] «The gates of hell [denominations] will not prevail against her, against that Rock, nor against the Church founded upon the Rock: upon the divine revelation for the Dispensation of Grace and the Dispensation of the Kingdom, and the revelation of every age».
JBP
Now, at this end time you can testify and say: “I am not the same person I was before.”
Now, after all this time that we’ve had the messages of brother Branham and of our brother William, and when this whole Messianic ministry began, when we looked at ourselves in the mirror of the Word, we said: “Truly, we were not ready for transformation and rapture.” And today you can say: “I am not the same person I was yesterday. I am a better person, a better elect, than yesterday! And I am changing, improving day by day.”
Now, what has produced that change in you? You have come into the presence of God, into the Most Holy Place, and that is why the same thing is happening to you as what happened to Peter: he was never the same anymore, notice, and that’s why later, it says there that he was given the keys to the Kingdom.
Now he said here that [WSS] «the keys will be given (in that writing) to God’s elect». In other words, you also have that power, and you can conquer all the gates; like Paul as well: he was in the presence of the Pillar of Fire and he wasn’t the same anymore. It is in the presence of God that a man is changed.
That is why today, you are not the same person you were yesterday; that is why in past time, in past ages, God couldn’t carry out the promise of the transformation; because it’s in the time in which God’s presence is in the midst of the people, and He makes that change from within —in that elect of God—, where the Holy Spirit enters directly into the soul, and that’s where that transformation begins.
As long as the Holy Spirit is in the person’s spirit: He cannot carry out that change as He did with Abraham and Sarah. That Word reached the soul of Abraham and Sarah, and they were rejuvenated around that Word.
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*
No human being could stand the full effect of that vision. His strength utterly gone, John fell at His feet as though dead. But the hand of the Lord in love touched him ([JBP] on the right he writes): [WSS] «hand», and the voice of blessing said, “Fear not. Don’t be afraid. I am the First and Last ([JBP] and he writes on the left): [WSS] «Alpha and Omega». I am He That liveth, and was dead; and, behold, I am alive for evermore.” What is there to fear? The judgment that fell upon Him at the cross, at the grave, and when He descended, was for us. He absorbed the full brunt of the wound of sin and there is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus. See for a surety our “Attorney” is our “Judge.” He is both “Attorney” and “Judge.” As Judge the “case is settled” — it is finished. There is now therefore no condemnation. Why should the church fear? What promise has He ever failed to manifest before us? Why should it fear punishment or death? It has all been overcome. Here is the mighty conqueror. Here is the One Who conquered both worlds of the seen and unseen ([JBP] and he draws a Star of David on the right). Not like Alexander, who conquered the world at the age of thirty-three and knew no other way to turn for further conquest, so he died a victim of sin and riotous living. Not like Napoleon, who conquered all Europe but finally was defeated at Waterloo and banished to Elba, only to find himself conquered. But nothing could conquer Christ. He that descended has now ascended above all, and unto Him has been given a Name that is above every name. Yes, He conquered death, hell, and the grave, and has the keys thereof. What He looses is loosed, and what He binds is bound. There is no changing of it ([JBP] and he writes on the right): [WSS] «keys». There was no conqueror before Him and there is none beside Him. He alone is the Saviour, Redeemer. He is the ONLY God: and “Lord Jesus Christ” is His Name.
“Don’t fear, John. Don’t fear, little flock. All that I am, you are heir to. All My power is yours. My omnipotence is yours as I stand in your midst. I have not come to bring fear and failure, but love and courage and ability. All power is given unto Me and it is yours to use. You speak the Word and I will perform it. That is My covenant and it can never fail.”
JBP
And on the right he writes: [WSS] «Speak».
And notice, here in this writing, Dr. William Soto writes:
[WSS] «The Lord in His Coming has the keys of hell and of death».
Here in the book of The Ages, in a part here the Notes.
[WSS] «The Lord in His Coming has the keys of hell and of death».

Now look - notice (as we read at the beginning) who the Boss is; let’s see who is in charge here. In other words, in His Coming, he said in a message that we read: that in His Coming, He will bless some and curse others*, see? Because He has the keys, and He can bring out of hell whoever He wants, and He can put whoever He wants in hell. He is the Boss, He is the Jefe.
*[57-0417 - “The Second Coming Of The Lord,” p. 5, para. 22] [Bible Study #311, 28/May/2023 (Sunday), pp. 6-7: [WSS] «Everything rests on the 2nd Coming after His death during the 1st. At His Coming He will bless some and curse others. The Coming of the Lord is the only hope».]
He goes on to say: “And He can put in...”:

That is why He was able to come out of hell and also out of the grave: because He has the keys of death and of hell.

**60-1231** - “Revelation, Chapter Four Part I,” pp. 16-17, paras. 99-103
99 Now, after He showed him all that mystery of them seven golden candlesticks (holding the seven stars, and a white wig on, and so forth, and feet like brass ([JBP] you can find that there on page 506 of the unedited book of “THE AGES,” that is the page; I’m reading from the booklet. Page 506 of the unedited book of “THE AGES”; I’m reading on paragraph 96), and eyes like fire, the symbols), then he heard the same Voice (Watch.) speaking from Heaven. And he looked up and he saw an open Door ([JBP] and he writes on the left): [WSS] «the Door». Oh! An open Door into Heaven! ([JBP] and on the right he writes): [WSS] «Heaven» How do you get in? By Christ Jesus, that one Door, one Way, no other way.
JBP
100 “Any man that climbs up any other way, same is a thief and a robber.” And in the parable of the one who climbed up and was at the Wedding Supper without a garment on, was found guilty, and bound and cast out into outer darkness. Only one Way, coming to the Wedding Supper ([JBP] and he writes on the right): [WSS] «come up to the Supper». I believe I preached on it here not long ago. Whenever the bridegroom…When a man got…gets married in the old country, he has to give the invitations himself, he has to furnish the robes himself. So when he met this man there, him sitting at the supper table…How many remembers the parable? Sure, you that read the Bible. And he found a man at the supper table without a wedding garment on.
101 What is it? The Bridegroom stands at the door and all comes up with an invitation. “No man can come to the Father except by Me. All the Father has given Me, or invited, will come to Me.” Here they come, give their invitation, the bridegroom, so that everybody will look alike. That’s one thing about good, old-time, Holy Ghost religion, it makes them all look alike. Whether they’re rich or poor, bond or free, black or white, male or female, they’re all one in Christ Jesus. And the bridegroom stood at the door and received the invitation, put the robe around this fellow, so the rich and poor all looked alike ([JBP] and on the right he writes): [WSS] «the Door». That’s the way it is in the Kingdom of God, there’s no big guys and little guys; they’re all one guy, all one in Christ.
102 Now, what do you think when the Bridegroom come back and found a man sitting there without a Wedding Garment on? Said, “Friend, how’d you get in here?” And he stood speechless, it showed that he come some other way besides the Door. He come in a window, he come in a back door ([JBP] and there he writes): [WSS] «Laodicea». And He called him a friend, showed he was a church member…
JBP
But notice that for that reason God has sent the Reaping Angels at this time: to make that separation, that separation, that segregation.
As he wrote there, in a message that our brother Branham spoke and said: [WSS] «they went out from us because they were not of us»*. As simple as that.
*[Study “The Coming of the Creator,” 3/Feb/2024 (Saturday), p. 22: 63-1124E - “Three Kinds Of Believers,” p. 25, para. 190 - [WSS] «those who leave, went out from us because they weren’t it».]
[102] And He called him a friend, showed he was a church member ([JBP] and he writes on the left): [WSS] «the man without a wedding garment», “Friend, how did you get in here without a garment on?” Now, Jesus said this, Himself. And He called to the porter, He said, “Bind him, foot and hand ([JBP] and there he writes at the bottom): [WSS] «the porter = the one who has the key».” And he was cast out into outer darkness where there’ll be weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth.
JBP
[102] That’s Christ’s Own Words, (Right.) “He was cast out.” Because, it proved, without the Wedding Garment, he come some other way besides the Door. If he would have come by the Door, he would have received a Wedding Garment.

JBP
1368 - “249 Many, the weeds will come and set right down with the Wheat, say, ‘Now, wait a minute, Lord! I spoke in tongues. I shouted. I danced in the Spirit. I cast out devils. I spoke with tongues. I done all these things.’”
JBP
1368 - “[249] What’d He say? Notice. ‘You workers of iniquity, I never even knew you.’
250 What is iniquity? Ask somebody. It’s ‘something that you know you ought to do, and you won’t do it.’ They know that Word. They hear It.”
JBP
And he writes upwards: [WSS] «The Kingdom of God».
JBP
*[63-1229E - “Look Away To Jesus,” p. 7, para. 49]
Every person’s attitude towards the Word puts him in the right place. See how simple everything is?
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*
103 Oh, listen to this! Then if the Wedding Garment is the baptism of the Holy Spirit, how are we going to be represented any other way? ([JBP] And on the right he writes upwards): [WSS] «The wedding garment». If the first church age had to come by the Door, Christ Jesus, be baptized into the Name of Jesus Christ, receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost, to put on the Wedding Garment, how are we coming any other way? If you come by the Methodist, by the Baptist, or by the Pentecostals, or any other denomination, you will be bound and cast out into outer darkness. You’ve got to come by Christ Jesus, the Way, the Door, the Truth, the Life. Amen!

33 It’s hard if you don’t…You have to depend on the Holy Spirit because this Bible is wrote in riddles. You just can’t sit down and read It like a newspaper. It’s hid. Yes, sir. How would you ever justify God when He told Moses up there, said, “Now, don’t you make any engraven images,” in His commandments, “don’t you make anything like Heaven, any—any Angel, or anything else, don’t make any engraven images,” and yet on the same day told him to mold two Angels out of brass ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «gold» and put them right at the mercy seat, where mercy’s at? ([JBP] and he writes on the right): [WSS] «the two cherubim» See? You have to know God and His Nature before you can understand His Word. He—He—He has the key to that Word, Himself, and He—He’s the only One can—can handle It and open It, and so He’s the One that has to reveal It.

Now he goes on to say… Now notice here in the front as well, he writes there, of this booklet, he writes: [WSS] «The key to open the Door, God has it».

“And to the angel of the church in Philadelphia write; These things saith he that is holy, he that is true, he that hath the key of David, he that openeth, and no man shutteth; and shutteth, and no man openeth.”
The One who has David’s key is the Lord in Holy Spirit, and in His last manifestation He will open…

In other words, in the manifestation of that instrument, in which the Pillar of Fire, was seen by brother Branham (in that vision that was shown to him) talking to somebody else.* That is the ministry of the Second Coming of the Lord.

50 Now, all these things are in there. And we find…Sometime I’d like to come to Shreveport where we just have about two or three weeks just to take thirty minutes a night and just on a teaching, see, just stay right in the Word, these secret passages, see, where we could find out just how to get in. And you just watch, you follow God’s direction, there’s only one key to each door ([JBP] and on the left he writes): [WSS] «the key to each door. Acts 14:27». That’s right. And no other key, no matter how much it looks like it, God has no skeleton key; just got one key.
JBP
Now, where did you get that key from? Because God doesn’t have a copy. Therefore, if you have another revelation (because the key… key is revelation), if you have another revelation, other than that original revelation, then you must have gotten it from some place, or someone gave you that key. Be careful about where that key, that revelation, comes from; because if it’s not of the revelation of God, from Above, then it comes from the revelation of the fifth dimension: private revelations, interpretations.
[50] …God has no skeleton key; just got one key. And now, you’ve got to have that key, or the door won’t unlock.
JBP
[50] No matter how sincere you are, you still can’t unlock that door.
JBP
Now look, in this paragraph, on the left he draws here, in this booklet (which is page 10) he draws a Cornerstone, the ages, and a line at the bottom; he writes: [WSS] «Door» at the bottom; and draws three doors: for the Outer Court, as well as for the Holy Place, as well as for the Most Holy place, which is the Age of the Cornerstone.

“I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of David, and the bright and morning star.”
JBP
Look… Now, that is something very great; because in the soul is where that happens at this end time.

143 Now, here stands Peter with the keys of the Kingdom, on his side, the keys to the Holy Ghost.
JBP
143 Now, here stands Peter with the keys of the Kingdom, on his side, the keys to the Holy Ghost. Jesus said, “I say thou art Peter. Upon this rock I’ll build My Church, and the gates of hell shall not prevail against It.” What is it? A spiritual, revealed Truth ([JBP] see?). “Flesh and blood has not revealed This to you. You never learned This in a seminary. Somebody didn’t teach It to you, out of books. But, It’s a revelation you see. Revelation! I say that you are Peter. I give unto you the keys of the Kingdom. Whatsoever you bind on earth, I’ll bind it in Heaven. Whatsoever you loose on earth, I’ll loose it in Heaven.” He has to keep His Word. On the Day of Pentecost, who was the spokesman? Peter, ’cause he had the keys.
