BIBLE STUDY #273
SUNDAY, JANUARY 15, 2023
*Rev. Jose B. Perez*Scripture: Revelation 5:1-10[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And we read the first verse of this Scripture that he read there, of chapter 5 of the book of Revelation, verse 1:1 _And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals._ [JBP] Which is the Title Deed, the Lamb’s Book of Life.There he writes: [WSS] «The creative Word – the Scepter of the King». THE BOOK IN THE HAND OF THE MIGHTY ANGEL Dr. William Soto Santiago Sunday, June 12, 2005 Goiania, Goias, BrazilThe Book or “little Book”...; as it tells us here1: that it is a “little book.” In Revelation, chapter 5, it says: “A book.”And now, in order to understand this mystery of this little Book and the Angel that brings it… There are two subjects here. In other words, it is a double or dual subject, double ([JBP] he says there).[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And it tells us in the message “REVELATION, CHAPTER FIVE #2,”2 on page 17 it tells us:79 Now, we find out then that in this first beginning of the chapter, that we find that the fir-… the 5th chapter is just a tie block, it’s—it’s a—a diamond hitch that ties the last part of the Church age, of the 3rd chapter. The 4th chapter tells what John was taken up into Heaven. And the 5th chapter is preparing for these…Where you went through the Seven Church Ages, then John’s lifted up in the 4th chapter. And the 5th chapter, he’s just setting a scene here for the opening of the Seven Seals. Just as he did in the 1st chapter of Revelation, opening the way for the Seven Church Ages…[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Rev. 5 = Rev. 1». Revelation 1: opened the way for the seven Church ages. Revelation 5: opens the way for the seven stages of the Dispensation of the Kingdom. And he writes there as well:[WSS] «It is the dispensational breach». [79] (there He stands in the seven golden candlesticks, and He’s to look upon as Jasper and Sardius stone3), and He’s preparing for those Seven Church Ages.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And here, in this same message, on page 29 of “REVELATION, CHAPTER FIVE #2,” it says [Page 24]:135 And soon as he advertised “Who is worthy?” he was advertising the coming of the Kinsman Redeemer ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «2nd Coming». And here He stood, a Lamb. And what did He do? Walked over to the Throne where the Spirit of God was at, and took the Book out of the right hand of Him that sets upon the Throne. And all the elders fell down and said, “Thou art worthy because Thou wast slain.” See? And then He became then… His Book, or at least the Book of redemption, or—or the Book of intercession in the Church age was finished, now He becomes the Redeemer.[JBP] Now, there is a place here where he writes and where he says (that is, where we just read): [WMB] “Walked over to the Throne, where the Spirit of God was at.”And these days (maybe next Sunday) we will be talking a little bit more about the yellowish or greenish color, which he says is the Spirit of God. And these days there is also a greenish comet, green; and God always shows in sky the things that are happening and that will happen; that is why everything that is happening is so important.Now, he goes on to say here [“REVELATION, CHAPTER FIVE #2”]:136 Now, the revealing of how He did it is going to be in these Seven Seals ([JBP] he draws a Star of David). Now, we notice in the… like when the Book of the mediatorial work of Him was done, the work was finished, now in the first three chapters of the Church, finished. But now redemption, redemption is to be revealed. What is it? Now, when He took this Book… Now, try to put on your deep thinking, ’cause, we ever get these seven nights, you’re going to—you’re going to get it now.137 If you don’t get it, just raise up your hand, say, “I don’t—I don’t get it,” see, look, ’cause I want you to be sure now.138 Now, notice “Redemption.” After, immediately after His intercession was done for the Church, then He reveals Hisself as the Kinsman Redeemer. You follow that now? And now He’s going to reveal to the Church how He did it ([JBP] and he draws a Star of David and writes): [WSS] «how He did it». And then if this revelation has already started, then that proves we’re at the end of the road. Amen! Now, you just see whether This… whether It’s right or not, as we go through the Scripture here.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And in the book of The Seals… If he says that He will reveal it: [WSS] «how He did it», that is, there he is speaking about how the fulfillment of the Coming of the Mighty Angel with the Title Deed in His hand would be, and delivering it to a man.Look, on page 269 of the book of The Seals it says (bottom of 268 [p. 317 in Eng.]):[310] Look what he is riding on, this pale-looking, grizzled-colored horse, mixed with black, red, and white; coming to the battle ([JBP] page 269), gathering his subjects from every nation under Heaven! Did not Daniel interpret the dream, and seen that streak of iron run into every kingdom, of Rome? Here they come, gathering. Now sit still for the close, just a minute, and listen close.311 They are gathering in now to do it, bringing his subjects from the four corner of the earth; riding a pale, sickly, three-colored, mixed horse. Same man!312 Now, in Revelation 19, not only is he getting ready, but Christ is getting ready to meet him. The battle is going to be hot and heavy. Christ, in Revelation 19. Christ is gathered His, not from the four corners of the earth, because there’s going to be a little bitty remnant [WSS] «the Bride and the 144,000 Jews». What’s He doing? He is gathering them from the four corners of Heaven. We’ll get them, “souls under the altar,” tomorrow night, and you’ll see whether it’s right, or not. Four corners of Heaven; on a snow-white horse!313 He also has a Name, not death, but, “The Word of God,” Life. Amen. Got wrote right on His thigh here [WSS] «covenant», “The Word of God.” That’s the only Life ([JBP] and there on the side he writes): [WSS] «Elijah and Moses», because God is the only source of Eternal Life there is. Zoe! That right?314 And He has got wrote, “Life,” riding on a white horse; and here is a man with three different powers mixed up, called “Death.” Gathering his earthbound delegates; and Christ is gathering His Heaven-born subjects, saints. He has got “Death” wrote on him; Christ got “Life” wrote on Him.315 Those with Him are on white horses, also, and they are called, “The chosen before the foundation of the world.” Amen! And they are faithful to the Word. Amen! Whew! I like that one. “Called, chosen, before the foundation of the world.” And then, faithful to the Word, by their choosing, all stimulated with new wine and Oil, just riding right along, coming down to meet him ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «from the 6th dimension». They know the Thunders will issue the thing for us, pretty soon. See?[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «The Thunders show Rev. 19». [Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on page… Let’s pause there for a moment. On page 34 of “REVELATION, CHAPTER FIVE #2,”4 where we are reading, he says [Page 28]:160 He breaks the seals, reveals, gives us His inheritance to His people. He gives the inheritance that He inherited, becoming Kinsman Redeemer, and freely gives it out to us. It all belonged to Him. He was the One Who redeemed. But instead of keeping it Hisself, He gives it back to the people. That’s His love for us. Oh!161 Satan, the possessor of it now, the squatter, he is finally…He don’t want to give it up right quick, we find out here in a little later on in the Scriptures, I’m thinking over here in another chapter. And he didn’t want to give it up right away, but he had to fight over it. But, finally, when he was brought to a showdown ([JBP] see, there is going to be a showdown), he was cast into the lake of fire.[JBP] And he writes there: [WSS] «The Seals = The Title Deed». [Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now, he goes on to say here in the book of The Seals, on page 269 [p. 318 in Eng.]:[316] So, if He is the Word, and His Name is the Word, then the Word is Life. The antichrist; anything anti is “against,” so anti is “against” the Christ, the Word. So, it’s got to be a creed, or a denomination, which is against the Word.317 Why, I don’t see how you going to miss it. If you—you understand it, how could you miss it? I don’t know how you’re going to.318 And that’s true. Anti is “against.” Isn’t that right? “Take away from.” That’s what he was. He’s riding his mixed-up horse. We seen it right here in the Word of God.319 We seen it right there in the seven church ages. Here He brings it right back in the Seals, open up and showing them things that went on, under the church ages.320 Anti is “against” the Word.[JBP] And he writes below: [WSS] «The great battle of…». [320] See why, creeds, why we’re so against the creeds and denominations? Because they’re against the Word. See?321 Here we see Life and death coming to the final struggle. The white horse, of true Life; the pale-horse, of mixed creed. They see the thing coming to the—to the real showdown.[JBP] And there he writes: [WSS] «The showdown». And he also writes: [WSS] «The original color = white». [Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on 237 [p. 281 in Eng.] it says [The Seals]:[36] And now there is Seven Seals that this Book is sealed with. And those Seven Seals now…37 And then after these Seven Seals are completed, we find, in Revelation 10, there was seven mysterious Thunders that John was commissioned to write, but then forbidden to write those. And at the time of those Thunders, we find Christ, or, “The Angel come down with a rainbow, and put His feet on the land and sea, and swore that time had run out, at that time.”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «The Intersession». [WSS] «The Thunders / end of time».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Our brother William goes on to say in this message “THE BOOK IN THE HAND OF THE MIGHTY ANGEL”:[WSS] The Angel is Christ, who for that time will have completed His Church, for He has not yet taken that little Book, it is still at the right hand of God.That is the Lamb’s Book of Life, where the names of all God’s elect are written, of all those who would be redeemed, of all those who would receive Christ as their only and sufficient Savior.It is the most important Book in Heaven; and therefore, much more so, on Earth. It is a Book that has no comparison. The Scripture speaks to us, that it is the only Book that is at the right hand of God.[JBP] Further on he says, further on in this same message:[WSS] (...) Therefore, the call for a person to present himself and take that Title Deed, is made in Heaven, before Christ completes His Church ([JBP] that is, that call is made before the Church is completed); and that is why John wept much. And John represents the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.And John also, who is already in the sixth dimension, by seeing that the seven messengers had already appeared and left, and are in Paradise with the group that corresponds to each one, they must be worried in Paradise.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And in the book of Quotations5 it tells us on page 85, paragraph 729, it says: 729 - “166 But, John ‘wept.’ Here is what I think he wept for. Because, if no one was worthy and could open this Book of Redemption, the whole creation was lost.[167] ‘That’s God’s Own law, and He can’t defile His law, can’t defy His law rather.’”[JBP] And he draws a Star of David.And he writes: [WSS] «John wept because the entire Creation was lost if the Book was not opened…». And he writes: [WSS] «The Law of God» as well (below). [Rev. Jose B. Perez] And look at this next paragraph: 730…, and even 731… Let’s turn to 730; it says [Quotations]:6 730 - “[193] And John looked to see the Lion, and there come a Lamb, shaking, Blood on Him, wounds. He had prevailed.”[JBP] I passed a picture to Julio Angel over there, where he drew a little frame in a notebook and drew John at the window, as if he was looking; and here he drew the Lamb. In other words, when John looked he saw a Lamb with His seven horns and seven eyes. And right there in the back, he draws the old man looking, and he sees a Lion.[JBP] The old man sees a Lion and John sees a Lamb: both were right, they were looking at the same person.And there is a place where he says: [WSS] “They weren’t looking… It wasn’t an animal, but it was the Lord in the fulfillment as Lamb of God and as Lion of the tribe of Judah; they were seeing the same person.”7Look, even the… even all the little drawings that he left, for the teachers’ classes: they use all of that for their classes; and they are of great blessing, how they can see that Scripture there, and they see it in a drawing as well. How he took his time even for the children.It says [Quotations]: 730 - “[193] He had prevailed. You could tell He had been in battle. He had been slain, but He was alive again.194 John hadn’t noticed this Lamb before, you know, here. It hadn’t been mentioned before. Nowhere had It been mentioned. John didn’t see It, all over the Heavens, as he was looking. But here It come forth.195 Notice where It came forth. Where did It come from? It come from the Father’s Throne, where He had been seated since He had been slain and raised again. ‘He raised up and sat on the right hand of God, ever living to make intercessions.’ ([JBP] there he draws a Star of David as well) Amen. Raised there, today, as an Intercessor, with His Own Blood, to make intercession upon the ignorance of the people.”[JBP] And above he writes:[WSS] «John wept for everything». «John was expecting to see a Lion and a Lamb appeared».And below: [WSS] «The Lamb came from the Throne of the Father». [Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on 731 of page 86 it says [Quotations]:8 731 - “[201] But, remember, these Seals are ready to be opened, and the Lamb come from the sanctuary of God, advanced forward. 202 Wait till we get over there, that one hour, take that ‘onehalf hour’ that It’s silent. The sanctuary is smoking. There is no more intercession. The Sacrifice has left. It’s a Judgment Seat. There is no Blood on it no more, for the Blood-covered Lamb has walked away.”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «½ hour», and he draws the Cornerstone.And he also writes: [WSS] «The half hour of silence since the Lamb leaves the Throne of the Father as Intercessor». [Rev. Jose B. Perez] Our brother William goes on to say here [“THE BOOK IN THE HAND OF THE MIGHTY ANGEL”]:[WSS] Although there they know the whole Program; but Christ not rising from the Throne of Intercession, they must be eager for Christ to rise from the Throne, take the Title Deed and open it in Heaven, and claim all that He has redeemed with His Blood; resurrect all those who are in Paradise, resurrect them in glorified bodies; because they are eager to return to Earth and have again physical but eternal and glorified bodies. WORDS OF GREETING TO THE LADIES Dr. William Soto Santiago Saturday, July 25, 2009 Santiago de Chile, ChileThe Tent Vision and in the Tent Vision the Dispensation of Grace and the Dispensation of the Kingdom will be intertwined; the Lion of the tribe of Judah will be intertwined with the Lamb of God, those divine ministries; in other words, the ministry of Christ as Lamb and the ministry of Christ as Lion will be intertwined.Remember that when the old man sees John weeping, he says to John, “Weep not, behold the Lion of the tribe of Judah, who has prevailed to take the Book and open Its Seals.”[JBP] Now, notice something important here, because how John… Remember that John was transported to the Lord’s Day, and he is also here in the time in which the Book must already be taken.But John was weeping. And how can it be possible, if there is no suffering there?Everything must be typified, reflected, in types and figures, of everything that would be happening here on Earth. And that part of John weeping was also fulfilled here on Earth: when our brother William, in a certain time, where he – there was no way to comfort him, he was crying heavily. And I say it because I was witness to that when I was by his side, and I couldn’t comfort him. Later he calmed down.And notice how that which happened there, that John was desperate because it was the time for the Title Deed to be taken, look at how it was reflected in him in that time; and then, later on, I understood why that had happened. Because it wasn’t pain nor what he was going through, nor was it anything that had to do with his body or anything; because I would ask him and he would say: [WSS] “No,” and he continued to cry.— [JBP] “But, is it this…?”
— [WSS] “No.”And notice how all of that was also reflected in the messenger. And many other things, and as we see the fulfillment, we will be talking about everything that happened to him in that last time while our brother William was here. Because it was a time that if the Title Deed wasn’t taken, the whole Divine Plan would be spoiled; and everything would be lost.Now, after that call, the elect were still missing, the Church hadn’t yet been completed; but there came a time when it was completed; and the Door of the Dispensation of Grace was closed, which is the only Door to become part of the Mystical Body of believers of our time, of the Age of the Cornerstone.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He goes on to say [“WORDS OF GREETING TO THE LADIES”]:[WSS] (...) And when John looked, what he saw was a Lamb. See? There Christ is intertwined as Lamb and as Lion, for He was leaving His Work of Lamb and His Work of High Priest to be in His Work of Lion, King and Judge.Then when the old man sees Him, He had already changed ([JBP] when John sees Him: He had already made that change), but John sees that it is the same Lord Jesus Christ now changing from High Priest and Lamb to King, to Lion. There we have the change.And that must all be carried out in the Church; in the Church the part that corresponds to the Church. What happens in Heaven, later on it happens in the Church…[JBP] Everything that happens there, notice, happens here. John wept much there.[WSS] …then it happens in the Church…[JBP] Remember that John represents the messengers of the ages, the messenger of this time; John represents the Church-Bride as well.[WSS] …and so it corresponds to the Age of the Cornerstone.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Also in the message “REVELATION, CHAPTER FOUR,” in “PART 2.”9 I believe this excerpt is in one of the studies from April (if I am not mistaken, I think it was in April10). Look on page 48 of this message:227 And he goes ahead and he begins to give this… these beasts, the same thing Ezekiel saw; them guards…one like a man, one like a lion, and one like the eagle. What was it? Now, watch, when we bring them in and show that Lion of the Tribe of Juda and all those different ones out of their tribes, that set on four walls, and they were guarding this mercy seat. Oh, what a picture! Oh, I just… There’s great days ahead.[JBP] And there he writes: [WSS] «What is in Heaven has its type and figure on Earth». 228 As we seen them, now, that was God’s Throne in Heaven ([JBP] and he draws a Star of David, and he writes): [WSS] «the Throne of God, Judgment seat — Most Holy Place», Moses patterned It on earth, was God’s Throne because His judgment seat was represented here on earth in the Holy of holy. God… All Israel come to that one place to find mercy, ’cause God only met under the shed blood.229 Now, listen close. Then the Shekinah Glory raised from that mercy seat one day, and It settled on another Tabernacle (Amen!), this One, “The Father judges no man but He’s committed all judgment to the Son.” God’s Judgment Seat. Whew! “You speak against Me, it’ll be forgiven you,” speak another—another One coming, another Mercy Seat. [JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Moses and Elijah». And he writes: [WSS] «another Mercy Seat is coming». And in “another Mercy Seat” he writes: [WSS] «Throne». [Rev. Jose B. Perez] That is why we read… We have sometimes repeated this part there on page 369 [p. 435 in Eng.],11 at the bottom… [The Seals]:360 Notice the last verse of the Sixth Seal, opened. Those who had laughed at the preaching of the Word, of the vindicated Word of the living God ([JBP] he writes): [WSS] «Elijah»; when them prophets had stood there and performed miracles, closed the sun, and everything else, and all down through the age. See, “They cried for the rocks and the mountains to hide them,” see, to hide them from the Word that they had laughed at, ’cause they seen Him come. “Hide us from the wrath of the Lamb.” He is the Word. See? They had laughed at the Word. And here the Word was, incarnate [WSS] «Moses». And they had made fun of It; laughed at them, made fun of them. And the incarnate Word had dropped forth! ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «in the Angel of Jesus, Moses and Elijah».361 Why didn’t they repent? They couldn’t. It was too far, then.[JBP] Remember that then, by taking the Title Deed: there is no longer Blood on that Mercy Seat.[361] So, they knowed that, the punishment. They hear It. They had sat in meetings like this and knowed about It. And they knowed that the things of those prophets, had predicted, was looking them right in the face, the thing that they had rejected. They had spurned mercy for the last time.362 And when you spurn mercy, there is nothing left but judgment. When you spurn mercy; just think of it.[JBP] And that is where he writes: [WSS] «Elijah and Moses: he who receives His Message receives mercy».12[JBP] See, that other Mercy Seat that he writes there: [WSS] «another Mercy Seat is coming», it is God’s mercy in that human throne, in which the ministries of Moses and Elijah are.[“REVELATION, CHAPTER FOUR #2”] [Page 40][229] “Speak… you speak against the Son of man, I will forgive you; but someday the Holy Spirit will come to dwell in the hearts of the people, one word against It will never be forgiven.”230 It keeps getting more severe and more severe all the time, the judgment, ’cause God is continually wearing His patience out, trying to get sinners to come to Him to be reconciled. First, He was in the heavens above and shining through the stars. The second, He was on earth shining through the Shekinah Glory. Next, He come and was made flesh and dwelt among us, still wearing His patience. Then He redeemed man by His Blood, came into His Church in the form of the Holy Ghost, and speak against That it’s a finished thing, done.[JBP] And there he writes: [WSS] «Blasphemy against the Holy Spirit». 231 Now you can see where the shaking come. Where the time, they don’t realize. People can’t comprehend what It means.232 Now, the first Throne was in Heaven, judgment seat. The second Throne was in Christ. The third Throne is in man.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Moses & Elijah, the Church, the Most Holy Place», that is where those ministries are: in the Most Holy Place of the spiritual Temple of the Lord.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He goes on to say [“WORDS OF GREETING TO THE LADIES”]:[WSS] So we are in the most glorious time of all times; and we can say13: “The lines are fallen unto me in pleasant places; yea, I have a goodly heritage.”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] In the message:TIME OF WAITING AND WORKING (Ministers meeting) Dr. William Soto Santiago Saturday, June 24, 2006 San Pablo, BrazilAnd when the number of that age or stage of the Church is completed, then the worthy Person will no longer be made to wait to take the Book sealed with Seven Seals ([JBP] see, there is no more waiting for that Person: who is the Lord, who is Christ in His Coming), which is found in the right hand of God.And then He will open it and then He will bring it to Earth in His Reclaiming Work, and give it to a man; and the adoption of all the sons and daughters of God will come, of all the children of the Kingdom, which are written in that Book, in the Book sealed with seven Seals which is the Lamb’s Book of Life.And then we will enter a stage where the power of God manifested in His Church and through His Church, under the ministry of the Last Day, will have no limitations; and God will shake this Earth and also the Heavens, by speaking.That will be the Voice that will shake the Heavens and the Earth: it will be the Voice of God speaking through the ministry of the end time.The instrument where that ministry is will be adopted, will have the Title Deed.Notice that Christ in Heaven takes it and doesn’t eat it. He brings it to Earth to give it to a man, who has to be a member of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ and has to be a messenger: the messenger that is in that time in the midst of the Church.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] In the book of Quotations,14 on page 42, paragraph 345, it says: 345 - “227 Matthew 17, all right: ‘…after six days Jesus take Peter, James, and John… in a high mountain apart, And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.’228 He was transformed. What did He do? Passed Hisself into transformation, over into His coming day. [...][229] They taken Jesus up on the mountain… or He taken them up, and He was transfigured before them, transformed. His raiment shined like the sun in the middle of its strength, and there appeared unto Him Moses and Elijah. What form is the Son of man coming in now? And first, will appear, will be Moses and Elijah.230 Now, notice, before Jesus returns to the earth… Now, this is a little ahead of time, but the Spirit of Elijah will return back to the earth and turn the hearts of the children back to the father. The Bible said so. Jesus saw him here, the apostles saw him here, the order of the coming of the Son of man glorified. He’s to be glorified and coming back. The first thing, before they saw Him, was what? Elijah. Then what? Moses; Israel returning yonder, the law-keepers. And then the glorified Son of man. Hallelujah! Do you see the order of His coming?”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Adoption». [WSS] «Moses and Elijah = The Coming of the Kingdom».[WSS] «The Coming of the Son of Man glorified». [JBP] He writes there as well.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He continues [(MM) “TIME OF WAITING AND WORKING”]:[WSS] The other messengers already left; only one remains ([JBP] and if one will remain: it is because he will be alive): the last messenger; he will be the messenger for the Age of the Cornerstone.And then you will see that the Third Pull will be manifested in all its fullness: the creative Word being placed in the mouth of a man: that man speaking, and things happening.For that stage the Church will be prepared before that stage comes…[Rev. Jose B. Perez] In “REVELATION, CHAPTER FIVE #2”15 (let’s see where it is, which is continuing where we left off a moment ago), it says:80 Now He’s preparing for the opening of those Seven Seals of redemption. See, that’s what the 5th chapter is. That’s the reason I kind of read it and then just take it from there, and talk on it and give the other parts of the Scripture; is because it isn’t verse by verse, something that’s happening, it’s preparing for something to happen. And if you get the preparation ([JBP] he draws a Star of David), then you’ve just… you’re ready for it then.[JBP] That is, when you obtain the preparation: then you are ready for the adoption.[80] …you’re ready for it then. And that’s the way it is by faith or anything else. Now, this, the seals…[JBP] In other words it is by faith; and faith is revelation.[(MM) “TIME OF WAITING AND WORKING”][WSS] For that stage the Church will be prepared before that stage comes, and will be completed ([JBP] See? The Church will be completed before); to then the dead in Christ be resurrected and united with us, and us be transformed.We are in a time of preparation for that glorious moment when Christ will take the Title Deed, open it in Heaven, and do His Reclaiming Work by bringing that Title Deed to the human race, to His Church; and giving it to a man: the messenger of Jesus Christ of the Last Day.There can be no adoption without the Title Deed being on Earth…[JBP] In other words, that Title Deed has to be on Earth, in a man, for the adoption of the sons and daughters of God to occur. He can’t come out of the Throne of Intercession, take the Book, bring it and take it back again.That Title Deed is in the midst of the Church, which is being given; and so, in this end time, it is being obtained —under the Teaching— the Rapturing Faith. As simple as that.Everything is simple; but it is by faith, that is, by revelation. It is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but it is God that has had mercy on us.16 It is through God’s mercy extended in that other Mercy Seat which is in the midst of the Church. [WSS] «Another Mercy Seat is coming» (as he writes there) [WSS] «Moses and Elijah».[(MM) “TIME OF WAITING AND WORKING”][WSS] …there can be no restoration to physical eternal life without the Title Deed returning to Earth.It was on Earth in the days of Adam, Adam had it…[JBP] Look, if he hadn’t returned that Scepter to Earth: that relay wouldn’t have been made; it would have stayed there.That is why he would say to me: [WSS] “I have the Title.” But I haven’t said anything to you after that.And that is why sometimes they say: “But he said he had the Title.” But if he had the Title, and we already saw that God called him, he left, then he left the Title. He didn’t take it there to Heaven again. It was already taken, it was already brought and it is left in the Church.Because without the Title Deed in our midst there can be no adoption, there can be no claim.When they come it will already be a time for us to be transformed, and be 30 to 40 days and leave. But the time of preparation is now, the time where the Rapturing Faith would be made known to the Church is now.As when in these days it was spoken17 that Jesus, when He was adopted, He came down from Mount Transfiguration; and notice, when He was about to enter already, when He was already looking at the Cross, He had to have a donkey; and He used the donkey, He sent to call the donkey, to look for it. And look, He used things even from this Earth to finish His Work while He was adopted, and He did the corresponding work for which He came.Just as when He was resurrected: there He didn’t ask for a donkey to go there to where the disciples were, because He said to the women: “Go and tell the disciples to wait for Me there in such place; I will see you there.”18 He didn’t send for a donkey to go; with His glorified body He had no need of that.Therefore, it is like this at this time. It has to be as brother Branham saw there: under that ministry that was operating adopted. Already, when they come in glorified bodies, it is already to stay a few days and leave; but before that, everything he saw there was an adopted ministry in that ministry that God has at that time; but he will already be adopted.The seven angel messengers have already left, our brother William has already left. Well, it has to be someone who is alive in the midst of the Church.[(MM) “TIME OF WAITING AND WORKING”][WSS] There can be no adoption without the Title Deed being on Earth; there can be no restoration to physical eternal life without the Title Deed returning to Earth.It was on Earth in the days of Adam, Adam had it, that is why he had life that had no end; but when he sinned, the right to physical eternal life was taken away from him and the Title Deed was taken away from him.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now look in “REVELATION, CHAPTER FIVE #1,”19 on page 24, it says (24 and 25):121 Now, we see something that was lost here (because the Bible said so, and in the Book here) that—that has redeemed us. What are we redeemed from? Something we must have lost. Before you can be redeemed, there must be something that redeemed us back. And all the inheritance that we had has been—has been redeemed back. Then we must have had something one time that we do not have now, but this Lamb come to redeem. See? We had something we was lost from.122 Now notice. What did we loose? Well, it was given to Adam to have Eternal Life, as long as he eat from the Tree he had Eternal Life. And we notice again that Adam was the…he—he inherit the earth. He was the… like an amateur god over the earth ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «the Earth = the Church». The earth was his. Everything was given unto his hand, he could do with it whatever he wanted to.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Rev. 11:3-6», that is what we see in the book of The Seals, where it is power over nature that those ministries will have.[122] He named it, and called it, and done whatever he wanted to. He was truly a son of God.123 Now, in the fall, Adam forfeit the title deed to that. He forfeit it to Satan. Satan took the title deed. Adam was very slothful, and he did not redeem his rights for he could not redeem his rights ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «the Title». But Satan, which does not rightfully own it, but he possesses that, he is the god of this earth. The Bible said so. He possesses that. Not because that he—that he—he really rightfully gets it, but he possesses it. Now do you get it? Satan possesses that, he holds it into his hand. Death is in his hand, the earth is in his hand, the world belongs to him, every nation belongs to him, he governs and controls the whole world and everything in the world. Satan does!124 But thank God we’re not of the world.[JBP] As he said in the prayer: “Keep them, they are not of the world as I am not of the world,” the Gospel according to John, chapter 17 [verse 15-16].124 But thank God we’re not of the world. See? So there—there you are. See? And we’re… I don’t mean the Church; he don’t control the Church. He just controls the world. He said they were his, and he’s the god of the world. Jesus said he was, and he is. “He’s the god of this earth, has blinded the eyes of the people,” the god of this earth. He’s the God of Heaven. And now he rightly don’t own this. He does not own it.125 But he’s forfeit the ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «the god of this Earth = Satan»… and Adam forfeit the title deed to it, to this, all this stuff that we own, Eternal Life and the inheriting of the earth. Jesus said, in Matthew 5, “Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth.” See? Now, we don’t have it now.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And let’s see here another place in “REVELATION, CHAPTER FIVE #2,”20 on page 20, at the bottom, it says:93 What did we have at the beginning? Eternal Life. We was heirs of the world. We had Life, we never had to die. We never had to be sick. We never had to get old. We never had any worries. Where’s no funerals, no graves, no evil, no death, no gray hairs, no stooped shoulders, no mourning, no crying. We had Life, Eternal! We had the jurisdiction over all the earth. We was just a god (that’s all) on the earth; walk about…[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Ye are gods». And he also writes: [WSS] «return to what Adam lost». [93] …and if this tree didn’t look right standing here, we’d say, “Be thou plucked up and set over here,” and it would do it. The winds was blowing, we didn’t want the winds to blow, “Peace, be still,” and it did it. And what did He come to do? To redeem all that back to us again (Oh, oh, oh, oh, oh, my!), get all that back again.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] In the book of Quotations… where is it that he says: [WMB] “I have no water at the farm,” or something like that? Or [WMB] “my… the agriculture…” He speaks of that, and also says that… he says: [WMB] “I give them to you. I have no gold nor silver, but I give you what I have,” something like that. It is in that place here in the book of Quotations.Because all that is already children of God adopted: to return again to what Adam lost.Look, in page 37, paragraph 312, of Quotations:21 312 - “[75] His Blood was shed that I might go to my inheritance. To be what? What inheritance? The sonship, to be a son of God.76 And now This may just choke you to death. But did you know that men that are sons of God are amateur gods?”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «The adoption and the plagues». And he writes: [WSS] «The children of God = are Gods». 312 - “[76] How many ever knowed that? How many knows that Jesus said so? The Bible, Jesus said…”[JBP] And now, we will have to read it all, because this excerpt is tremendous. Look, there he writes at the top:[WSS] «An adopted son: Moses and Elijah».«The plague / The adoption at the Top». 312 - “[76] How many knows that Jesus said so? The Bible, Jesus said, ‘Did not your law say, itself, that you are ‘gods’? ([JBP] he writes): [WSS] «Gods». And if you call them gods…’ Which, God said in Genesis 2 that they were gods, because they were, had full domain over the dominion of the world. He give him dominion over all things. And he lost his godship, he lost his sonship, he lost his domain, and Satan took it over. But, brother, we are waiting for the manifestations of the sons of God who will come back and take it over again. Waiting for the fulness of time, when the pyramid gets up to the top ([JBP] and he draws a Pyramid and an arrow towards the Pyramid), when the full sons of God will be manifested, when the power of God will walk out (hallelujah) and will take every power that Satan’s got away from him.[77] He made man a god, a god in his domain. And his domain goes from sea to sea, from shore to shore; he has the control of it.78 And when Jesus came, being the One God without sin, He proved it. When the winds blowed, He said, ‘Peace, be still!’”[JBP] Remember what… in those five manifestations of the power of God that was shown in Reverend William Branham, that power was partly there.• When he told the storm to stop, see: power over nature.• When, also, the resurrection of the little fish: that speaks to us of the resurrection in this time (of those who have departed from the ages and of those of our time) through the spoken Word. A little fish that had been lying there for half an hour; they had taken out its guts and everything, it was like inside out, it looked like the bait. And one of brother Branham’s friends said: [WMB] “Your time has come” (something like that); and God told him: “Now you are going to see the glory of God.”22See how to resurrect a little fish God was going to show there His glory; type and figure of the resurrection that is going to happen at this end time by means of the spoken Word: “The dead shall hear the Voice of the Son of God, and shall arise”23; and there he writes: [WSS] «in flesh», shall hear the Voice of the Son of God [WSS] «in flesh».24Just as Jesus said there, “Lazarus, come forth!” [John 11:43]. See, it was the Word being spoken.Then… We already have two: that of the wind, the resurrection of the little fish…• The wife’s tumor, who was at a distance, in another place, and he said: [WMB] “Before the doctor touches you, let it be taken away.”25See, also those international miracles that will be happening in the Tent Vision, will also be made manifest and fulfilled everywhere that this Third Pull will be impacted. Healing at a distance by the spoken Word.• Also the salvation of our sister Hattie Wright’s children: which we will also ask for and claim for our relatives (they are already claimed), all our relatives, which God will give them to us.• And also the creation of the squirrels: that represents the Word; which is the most important thing: the revelation; which is and will be given at this stage, and in abundance. In other words, there will be no limitation in that Rain of blessing, which is giving us the Rapturing Faith.You see, those manifestations that Reverend William Branham had in part, we are going to see it in all its fullness very soon; where all those areas will be on a larger scale.The Word has already been opened and spoken. You see, there is already a part that is being fulfilled; and as we are getting closer to that moment of resurrection, all the others will also be fulfilled. 312 - “[77] …when the full sons of God will be manifested, when the power of God will walk out (hallelujah) and will take every power that Satan’s got away from him.He made man a god, a god in his domain. And his domain goes from sea to sea, from shore to shore; he has the control of it.78 And when Jesus came, being the One God without sin, He proved it. When the winds blowed, He said, ‘Peace, be still!’ Amen. And when the tree, He said, ‘No man eat from thee.’79 ‘Verily, I say unto you, you that’s little gods, if you’ll say to this mountain, ‘Be moved,’ and don’t doubt in your heart, but believe that what you’ve said will come to pass, you can have what you’ve said.’80 Go right back to Genesis, to the original…”[JBP] And what was it back in Genesis? Adam with the Title. That is, he could do all of that; until he fell. 312 - “[80] …what is it? Now the world and nature is groaning, crying, everything’s moving. What? For the manifestation of the sons of God, when true sons, born sons, filled sons ([JBP] filled of what? Of the Holy Spirit) speak and their word is backed. I believe we’re on the border of it right now. Yes, sir. Say to this mountain, let it be so.81 ‘Brother, I—I desire so-and-so, a certain thing done. I’m a believer in Jesus Christ.’82 ‘I give it to you in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.’ Amen. There’s a manifestation.83 ‘Oh, brother, my crops are burning up out yonder. I haven’t had any rain.’ ([JBP] Oh, this is of the harvest).84 ‘I’ll send you a raining, in the Name of the Lord.’ There she’ll come. Oh, waiting, groaning, all nature waiting for the manifestations of the sons of God. God ordained it at the beginning. He gave man the domain.85 He gave Jesus Christ, and Jesus gave it in His Name, with this assurance, ‘Ask the Father anything in My Name and I’ll do it.’ Oh, Brother Palmer! Waiting for the manifestations of the sons of God, the position, the Church!86 As I said, the Book of Ephesians is the Book of Joshua, and Joshua placing the people where they belong… […][87] God is wanting to place His Church, the sons and daughters of God. God, let me live to see it, is my prayer. So close till I can just feel it with my hands almost, look like. It’s right there.”[JBP] He desired to take it, grab hold of it, and couldn’t; God didn’t allow him to.And we are not only feeling it, but we have received it. And that is going to become a reality.That which brother Branham desired: to be in one of the days of the Son of Man, to be there in that moment that all that was going to happen, notice, God has allowed it for us: Not only have he grabbed hold of it, but we have made it part of us; because we believe it by faith. 312 - “[87] So close till I can just feel it with my hands almost, look like. It’s right there. That’s what I’ve longed to see, waiting for the time when walk down the street, there lays a cripple laying there, from his mother’s womb, ‘Silver and gold have I none.’ Oh, waiting for the manifestations of the sons of God, hallelujah, when God will make Hisself known, when they’ll stop sickness, they’ll stop cancer, they’ll stop diseases.88 You think cancer is something? The Bible said there is coming a time when men will rot right in their flesh, and the buzzards will eat off their carcasses before they even die. Cancer is a toothache to what’s coming. But, remember, that horrible thing was forbidden in that day to touch those who had the Seal of God ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «H.S.», ([JBP] that is, the Holy Spirit). That’s what we’re striving for now, to get in and be positionally placed into the Kingdom of God ([JBP] he draws an arrow towards a Cornerstone and the ages) before these horrible plagues strike.”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Enter the Kingdom positionally». And he also writes: [WSS] «The plagues and the Seal of God». [JBP] There are other places – There is a place where he says that that Third Pull…, that there is so much need in the world…Because see, just as that man’s bed was placed, and was lowered down to…, over the house and they lowered him down to where Jesus was, and then he stood up and went on with his bed26; notice, that at this time: we see the lady goes in on a stretcher, that they pushed her in, and then she comes out pushing her own stretcher.Look how what happened there will also be happening in The Great Tent Cathedral, in that stage which was shown by the Angel to brother Branham, but everything updated. There it was a…, surely they had him in… he was lying in sacks or in things… or on a mattress; and they brought him down and they took him to where Jesus was there preaching.And here, see how people will also come on stretchers, on crutches; because a man was also seen coming in with crutches and going out (and countless problems that they will have – that they have), and that will be at that time arriving to the place to be healed.He already saw it in that part, already in that high stage; that is, where all that was already in function; but surely it started in a progressive way; because everything in the Work of God is in a progressive way. But first is the Word, the revelation.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Let’s look at 216 really quick. It has gone… Today the message is very glorious, and we want to… (I didn’t want to take too much time). 216 on page 26. Let’s see here… (Aha, this is it right here). It says [Quotations]:27 216 – “[4] ...has been promised would come into existence in the tabernacle here, before we hit the tent. Well, now, as far as I know, there was nothing no more than just… Just soon as I went in there, the Spirit of the Lord came in, and It just started discerning the spirits, ([JBP] that is because he wanted… to see what would happen) and telling the people of their troubles… […][9] And it seem like that maybe it’s just going to continue on for a while, until that tent comes in ([JBP] that is, until that moment arrived, of that which he saw at the top) up under the same ministry that I’ve had. Because, in the interviews today, there were four great outstanding visions took place, in the interviews. So, seemingly, maybe, I will continue on until that maybe the tent starts, or wherever it is He has chosen to begin to declare His Name in a new way. But when It does, it’ll be just as perfect as the others ([JBP] that is, First and Second Pull). It’ll be just… And I’m trusting to God that it will be greater than the others. Not because of—of our ministry, but because of the sick and needy people. There’s such a need in the land today!”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «The [New] Name = in the Tent». And he also writes: [WSS] «The Tent». [JBP] See, because it is going to be a time of great need. Hospitals and all that are not going to be able to handle all the things that are going to be happening; and there will only be one place.And of course, in each place represented there: where, that moment that the doctor was going to do the surgery of brother Branham’s wife, she was healed. In other words, all that is going to impact also in every place where the believers in the Lord are, and believers in the Third Pull being fulfilled in this end time.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He goes on to say [(MM) “TIME OF WAITING AND WORKING”]:[WSS] And now for our time we are preparing ourselves for the moment when Christ will finish His Work of Redemption, that is, the Work of Redemption in the spiritual field, to then bring the physical redemption, which will be the resurrection of the dead in Christ and the transformation of us who live.The Church is getting prepared, is being prepared; the Church is being completed; from one moment to another it will be completed. And we are being prepared by believing all that has been promised for this end time.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] There is also a part there where he says that the messengers (where we read there; I didn’t read it to you), where the messengers have already left, and only one will remain.And in the message “HOW CAN I OVERCOME?” there he tells us that none of them overcame, because they left; but that can go in another subject, in another Bible study, because it would take us a little bit more time.And that also goes with page 115 [p. 137 in Eng.] of The Seals (let’s read this little paragraph so we already have something there):153 We all know, as Christians, that God swore to David that He would raise up Christ to sit on his Throne, and give Him an everlasting kingdom here on the earth. He did it.154 And Jesus said, “He that overcomes the antichrist and all the things of the world, shall sit with Me on My Throne ([JBP] the same thing that James’ mother wanted for her children), as I have overcome and have sit down on My Father’s Throne.”155 Now, someday He rises from the Father’s Throne, and goes to take His Own Throne.156 Now He comes forth to call His subjects. How is He going to claim them? He’s already got the Book of Redemption in His hand.[JBP] We already have other writings for another time on this very important message, “HOW CAN I OVERCOME?”.[WMB] “To enter fully into the Message (was what brother Branham once told us) would launch us into eternity without knowing it,”28 he says. And that is what we are doing: entering fully into the Title Deed.We leave with the subject: “THE MYSTERY OF THE SEVEN SEALS OF REVELATION, CHAPTER 5,” our dear brother and friend, Dr. William Soto Santiago.* * *
The old man knowing the manifestation of God in flesh as a Lamb and as a Lion, but being God Himself, then the old man says to John: “Behold, the Lion.” When John looks, he sees a Lamb, the Lamb of God who takes away the sin of the world. It wasn’t that John saw a little animal bathed in blood, he saw the Lord Jesus Christ; because a lamb, an animal, can’t take a book from the hand of another, but Christ can. The Lord Jesus Christ came and took the Book of the Seals, and opened those seals.
John said it was the Lamb. The old man said it was the Lion. Now, they were both correct; for John knew the Lord Jesus Christ as the Lamb of God, but the old man knew the plans and purposes, and the manifestation that pertained to that occasion; and he knew that that occasion was the manifestation, not as a Lamb, but as a Lion. And just as John when he saw Him, he saw that He was a Lamb. That is what happens today: A Lamb is so simple, so humble, that no one knows it is the Lion, no one knows it is the Lion of the tribe of Judah.
