BIBLE STUDY # 278
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 3, 2023

*Rev. Jose B. Perez*

**Scripture: Genesis 1:1-5 / John 1:1-13** [Rev. Jose B. Perez] And we read this portion there of the Gospel according to John, in chapter 1, verse 1, where it tells us:1 _In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God._ 2 _The same was in the beginning with God._ 3 _All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made._ 4 _In him was life; and the life was the light of men._ 5 _And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not._ [Rev. Jose B. Perez] And we turn to the Gospel according to John, chapter 17, verse 14:14 _I have given them thy word; and the world hath hated them, because they are not of the world, even as I am not of the world._ 15 _I pray not that thou shouldest take them out of the world, but that thou shouldest keep them from the evil._ 16 _They are not of the world, even as I am not of the world._ 17 _Sanctify them through thy truth: thy word is truth._ THE MYSTERY OF THE LIGHT THAT SCATTERS DARKNESS”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Our brother William tells us: WORDS OF GREETING (Ministers Meeting) Dr. William Soto Santiago Saturday, June 28, 2008 Santiago de Chile, ChileWell, we are expecting great blessings from God. We have the promises that there will be a full manifestation of the power of God and that this will come when the squeeze comes; therefore, the squeeze, which is said to come, carries behind it or behind it will come a great blessing for the Mystical Body of Christ.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And we ask that the Holy Spirit places this quotes —as He has always done so— in its place, so that we see everything relevant to the LIGHT THAT SCATTERS DARKNESS, that scatters darkness; and thus to clearly see in the time in which we are living, that is, the present; and may the Spirit, the Spirit of God, also work in your hearts and illuminate you on this occasion, as He has always done.In the message “THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT,” there is a quote with a portion. And we will be going there to also see what our brother William wrote there; but lets start reading this portion while we are advancing. Look, it says, page 58 of this message: “THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT,”1 it says:273 Vindicates the Word, and shows that It is the Light of the hour. Thats how we know He is the Light, because He is the Light manifesting Itself in flesh.[JBP] And he writes there: [WSS] «The Light in flesh manifesting Itself».And he draws a Pyramid and the ages; and in the Pyramid, there is a Star.[273] How do we know? He was Gods Word made flesh. See, Gods Word was showing Itself, vindicating Hisself, when the Messiah cometh, what Hell do.274 The woman said, at the well, “When the Messiah cometh, Hell do these things. You must be the Prophet, which is the Word, foretelling us these things.”275 He said, “I am He.” See? That was enough. The Light shined on the promised Word. There is the Light.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] In John, chapter 8, verse 12, see, there He says:12 _Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life._ [JBP] And there he draws a Star of David.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He continues saying here [“THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT”]:[274] You must be the Prophet, which is the Word, foretelling us these things.”275 He said, “I am He.” See? That was enough. The Light shined on the promised Word. There is the Light.276_ Right into the city she went, said, “Come, see a Man Who told me the things Ive done. Isnt this the very Messiah?”_ ([JBP] remember that the Messiah is Anointed: the Anointed One with the Word of God) That was it. See? No matter what the others said, she knew that was the Messiah.[JBP] Notice, it doesnt matter what they said about Jesus or spoke against Jesus: she knew and recognized, and recognized at that moment that that was the Messiah.277 Remember, in every age, in time of darkness, God has always had His Word to divide the Light from the dark.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «The Light shone upon the promised Word».On page 59 [p. 49 in Eng.] he goes on to say:[277] He had It in the days of Luther, when the Catholic church had everything; He sent Luther as a shining Light, and Luther divided Truth from darkness.And when the Lutherans got twisted up, He made a John Wesley, and he divided Light from darkness.And in the days of pentecost, when the Wesleyan got all… and the Methodist got all gummed up, and the Baptist, and Presbyterian, He sent the pentecostal message to separate Light from darkness.The Pentecost went right back out into the darkness again, like that, in their organization, took their creeds and things.Now the hour has come for this Word to be vindicated. He sends the Light, the Word made manifest, like He did in the beginning; sends the Word, and It proves Itself. There is Light, and He always separates. The same is now, as Eternal little Lights in the beginning.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «The Light = the manifested Word».278 Looking children, as I say, Im five minutes past time now. But let me say this one thing.There is a Man present! Dont get scared, no matter what they say. Ive seen it come to the spot to where I didnt know where to move next, but He is always present. The never-failing Presence, He is always there. He can turn on the Light. Yes, sir. He is just waiting, see what youre going to do. He can flip the switch any time He wants to. Yes, sir.279 There is a Man here that can turn on the Lights ([JBP] and he draws a little Cornerstone and flashes). “Those who set in the regions of the shadow of death,” some of them under cancer, some of them under the death of denomination, some of them under creeds death, some of them under traditional death, and all them kinds of death, “and they have seen a great Light.” The Man that flashed the Lights then, is the same One Who said, in the beginning, “Let there be light.” That same God, “yesterday, today, and forever,” He is present today, right here now. Dont get scared. He can turn on the Lights.When the persecution comes ([JBP] that is the excerpt there that is in the book of Quotations), dont get scared. There is a Light ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «Rev. 10:1-6», said He would catch His people away. Shell not go through the tribulation. Shell never do it. He said She wouldnt. Shell be caught away.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Lets turn to the book of Quotations, that is in paragraph 1054, so you have it there as well. Here in this version it says, on page 119 of the book of Quotations:2 1054 - “[279] When the persecution comes, dont get scared. There is a Light, said He would catch His people away. Shell not go through the tribulation. Shell never do it. He said She wouldnt. Shell be caught away.”[JBP] And there he draws a Cornerstone, a Pyramid, and flashes.And he writes: [WSS] «The squeeze».[WSS] «A Light will rapture the elect = Christ in His ».[JBP] Notice, that Light was seen by brother Branham, he saw that Pillar of Fire resting on a little wooden room. And that is something very, very significant for us at this time; because it says that when the squeeze comes: “Dont get scared.” In other words, something will be happening in those days, also, of squeeze.But see, He already answered us: [WMB] “Dont get scared; there is a Light”; and we already saw that he saw It. So if he saw It, it is already confirmed that that Word will be a reality when that moment happens. There is a Light that will rapture us. That is, it will already come to be —at that moment— the Word being fulfilled when He takes us out of this Earth. We know that it is after 30 to 40 days that the rapture will occur.But remember that every Word must be spoken; it is spoken and then it is fulfilled. What God has spoken by Gods holy prophets who have been inspired by God will not fall to the ground. “They spoke (says Peter) being inspired by God,”3 and it was what? The Spirit of Christ which was in them.4[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He continues saying here in the book…, on page 59 at the bottom [“THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT”] [Page 50]:[279] Shell be caught away. “How they going to do it, Brother Branham? Looks awful dark!” No matter how dark it gets, you cant see your hand before you, just remember, there is a Man here that can turn on the Light. Hell Rapture that Church ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «rapture».You say, “Well, Im right…”280 Yeah, Shadrach, Meshach, and Abednego, was right up to the fiery furnace, but theres a Man there Who could turn on the air. Yes, sir. That rushing mighty Wind that come down on the Day of Pentecost, He turned It on again and fanned all the breeze away from them, all the fire. There was a Man there; Hes called “the fourth Man.”281 There is One here today. Hes the only One! Hallelujah! Hes got the Light switch in His hand.[JBP] Remember, there he placed: [WSS] «Rev. 10:1-6». And Revelation 10 is the Mighty Angel with the Title Deed in His hand: the Switch.[281] “Those who sat in the regions of the shadow of death, great Light sprung up.” Dont reject It. Receive It, in the Name of the Lord…[JBP] And there he draws a Cornerstone and the ages; and numbers the last three: [WSS] «1, 2, 3».And of course, in the Cornerstone, there he doesnt write the fourth, but it is the fourth stage there, I believe that on Sunday we will be seeing that of the watches and there we will be speaking of that fourth stage, that fourth watch, which also represents the fourth stage of the restoration of the Tree-Bride, which is in the fourth stage, which is the Age of the Cornerstone.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now see, he goes on to say in the message that we are reading [“MM GREETING (2002-6-28)”]:[WSS] Therefore, we will not be frightened by the squeeze, but we will rejoice in the blessing that comes at that time.It was called the Third Pull; and the Third Pull is a full manifestation - or there will be a full manifestation of God. The Voice of God, which are the Seven Thunders, will be speaking consecutively, and God will be working everything through the spoken Word.[JBP] Notice, in that time of squeeze, what is going to be happening? The Voice of the Seven Thunders will be speaking, they will be sounding; and it is all through the spoken Word.[WSS] Therein lies the mystery: it will be in the spoken Word.Remember that Christ spoke about having faith as a mustard seed (that is somewhere around Mark, chapter 11), and He says, “If you say to this mountain, Move from here to there, it will move, and nothing will be impossible.”5 Mark and Matthew also speak of that faith as a mustard seed.And now, that is “if you say”…[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now, there is a place in the book of Quotations where he talks about that Scripture; and there is something very important written there, which I havent read yet, which is on this left part here… I didnt have it marked to read it, but lets stop for a moment while we find it. Lets see 1258. There is something there that shows what that change of kingdom will be… When it says: “If thou shalt say to this mountain (that is, the mountain if it represents a kingdom…): Pass from here to there,” in other words, the gentile kingdom will be taken away; and all that will be by means of the spoken Word.And there is a writing that we read6, that he says about “the winds,” something about “atomic,” something like that; all of that has to do with that.In other words, something is going to happen through the spoken Word, whereby the kingdom of darkness will be taken away.Lets read it, a part of it here. It says, page 140…Remember that there are things that cant be spoken lest the Divine Program be interrupted; and they are left for, when that time comes, to be spoken in the form in which it has to be spoken; and then we will go there where the evidence is.And anybody could say, “Now this one comes with mysteries and with things.” No. We are speaking with foundation; and then you are going to see (if you have been thinking like that) why I am saying it; and then you are going to go there to that excerpt, you are going to read it and you are going to say, “Look, it was written there”; and why it wasnt spoken.But look, he says [Quotations]:7 1258 - “34 But when I opened the [new] Bible, the first little ribbon in the Bible was a very strange thing, where it was. Was when Solomon dedicated the temple of God, and the Glory of God was so great, the Shekinah glory in the building, till the priests couldnt even minister.35 And then the next string was laying where Ezra returned and dedicated the temple.36 And the third little marker, that my wife had gotten me and put in the Bible, not knowing, with my name on it, and so forth, was laying to Mark 11:22.”[JBP] Third ribbon. And that also tells us about the First, Second and Third Pull. And the Third Pull is the Word being spoken, being brought to the people.Because of the First and Second there was imitation; and the Angel said to him: [WMB] “What I told you not to do, that you did, and look, a bunch of imitators that have arisen, and the people have now turned their attention away. But the Third Stage, in this Third Pull, there you will not say anything.” 1258 - “[36] She just stuck it in the Bible, and thats where it was at, that, If you say to this mountain, be moved. And all of you know when that Scripture was in my mind, you tape people, thats when those squirrels come right in, into the—the… Thats exactly.37 And then the strange thing of it was, my favorite bird, robin, picture was on the marker, the little bird with the red breast. [...]38 And then my first meeting, Message Im to preach in here, is at Phoenix, Arizona. Phoenix is something that can raise up out of nothing. Thats what God does. He takes nothing, raises up something out of it.”[JBP] And there he draws a Star of David.And you remember that in a portion of the book of Quotations, where he wrote of Phoenix, that below he wrote something of the sixth Elijah8, which many entered into criticism…; but if they are criticizing that, they are criticizing the messenger himself; they are not criticizing me, they are criticizing the messenger, who wrote it there. It was his writing, not mine. And that is a tremendous problem they have gotten themselves into, which they will have to give an account to God for; because all that was written by that powerful Archangel who has access to the Book of Truth, and He is the only one who knows what is written there.And if He wrote it here, it is because He saw something there, He knows that it is written there in a certain way. It is what is written there and He captured it here; because He is the one who knows, the one who has access to the Book of Truth.And now, see how we have had access to that Book. And remember that that Book was given to a man in this end time, who is also having access to that Book.He goes on to say… 1258 - “[38] He takes nothing, raises up something out of it.”[JBP] In other words, look how he places Phoenix there. Because here below he writes: [WSS] «from Phoenix something would arise».[JBP] In other words, a type and figure. And if you look there for what he wrote there: what Phoenix represents…; and there we will continue to have more on that topic. It should be somewhere a little further on in these same pages.Lets continue reading, here moving forward, while they find it. Look, he continues saying [Quotations]: 1258 - “39 And my Message this afternoon, is titled, for the next thirty or forty minutes, Paradox. And I want to read from a Scripture that...40 Few years ago, that, I would take a Bible…”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Lets see, they found it already. (And thank you to the brethren too, that…) It was right there, on the side! I said it was on this side, and then I quickly went over here. He wrote it at the bottom. It was on the same page!Notice how (see?) sometimes things are right there in front of you, and you dont see it. And that is how it happens many times in the Divine Program: things are right there in front of the person, and no matter how hard the people or the person tries to look, if the veil is in place, they will not see. And see it was there on the side.That is where he says on 141, paragraph 1263 [Quotations]:9 1263 - “192 The other day, up on the mountain, I was standing there. I said, Lord, I got one open door in the whole nation, as far as I know, thats Phoenix, Arizona. Youre the only one I got. And I started down off the mountain. Just as plain as I ever heard anybody speak, said, Whats that to thee? Follow thou Me.’”[JBP] And that is where he writes: [WSS] «Phoenix is an open door for the 6th Elijah».10[JBP] He wrote that there.Remember that it is the Spirit of Christ, the Spirit of God who operates ministries. And when He wishes to operate a ministry that He has already operated in the past: He operates it but in another veil of flesh.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He goes on to say [Quotations]: 1258 - “[39] ...for the next thirty or forty minutes, Paradox. And I want to read from a Scripture that...40 Few years ago, that, I would take a Bible and let you hand me the Bible, when I first started my ministry; and just take your Bible, and many of you have seen me do it, just hold it open like that, and say, Lord, where is the Message to me? It opened to Joshua, the 1st chapter, any Bible that you would hand me.41 Until one night a vision came, which you are familiar, and I seen that Bible come down from Heaven, and a hand with a collar on a cuff, like this went down the first nine verses of Joshua.”[JBP] And there he draws a Star of David. And he writes: [WSS] «A collar on a cuff». And above he writes: [WSS] «A collar», and draws a collar, with little links.[JBP] But what is here, we have to leave that for when Mark, chapter 11, happens; we are going to read all that there, and… But everything that is there, Im going to read only this side, where it says:[WSS] «The Pillar of Fire».[JBP] It is the Pillar of Fire.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He goes on to say where we left off, here in the greeting of June 28, 2008, he says [“MM GREETING (2002-6-28)”]:[WSS] And now, that is “if you say”; in other words, it is not whether God says it, but the person ([JBP] See? The person. We stopped there and we took that little turn there). Of course that person will have the Word of God in his mouth for the manifestation of that Third Pull that is to come.[JBP] That person will have the Word in his mouth; and everything that is being spoken will materialize.[WSS] That is why he will be given to eat the Title Deed, the Book of the Seven Seals, and then he has to speak his prophetic Message to many peoples, nations and tongues; and under that…[JBP] Lets stop there for a moment. See how that prophetic Message that the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ has brought to us, is a Message that comes from the sixth dimension; because that Angel is from the sixth dimension, that Angel that is in the presence of God, but He is the one that has access to the Book of Truth and He is the one that has brought to us at this time that prophetic Message: prophesying the things that must come to pass.And see how that Scripture has fulfillment there, but he is told: “You must prophesy again.”11 In other words, he already prophesied; but that is already a fulfillment for the corresponding age, which is the age in effect: the Age of the Cornerstone and the Dispensation of the Kingdom, in which we are already.[JBP] He continues saying [“MM GREETING (2002-6-28)”]:[WSS] …and under that ministry there will also be great signs at the international level…[JBP] That didnt happen in the First Pull, the first manifestation of prophesying over many peoples, nations and tongues; but for that second occasion, where he is going to prophesy again: there will be those international miracles.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] That is in the book of Quotations, page 50, paragraph 436. It says:12 436 - “[68] Dont you see how it is? The people today, how theyre, Great somethings going to shake the whole world and everything Thats unscriptural! No, sir. The next thing in order is the going of the Church. Read in the church ages, you see what…69 Now, these other things thats to take place, is during the time of the Wedding Ceremony when the Church is in Glory. God returns back with great wonders to perform, international miracles and things, by the Jews, dont go to the Church at all.”[JBP] And there he writes: [WSS] «Moses and Elijah, and the miracles».[JBP] And there is a part where he says, [WMB] “But, how is it not for the Church?”13 All of that has its meaning, which will be fulfilled in the fulfillment of the Tent Vision.That is, there the Church-Bride will be —in that culminating part— already with the Rapturing Faith in Her; and therefore, She doesnt need to see the miracles and wonders to believe. Already by that time the Bride will be with that faith so high, that already, if She is not adopted in those days, the resurrection will already be happening and then the transformation of our bodies; and after 30 to 40 days be taken in the rapture to the House of our heavenly Father, to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Now, he writes there: [WSS] «Moses and Elijah, and the miracles».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And brother William continues saying here [“MM GREETING (2002-6-28)”]:[WSS] …and under that ministry there will also be great signs at the international level, wonders, miracles. And all that, Reverend William Branham says corresponds to the Two Olive Trees: to Moses and Elijah.And how can there be miracles and marvels at an international level, if you will be in one place? Through the screens they will be seeing and listening; therefore…[JBP] And that is why it is good that in every place they have good screens and good sound as well. Because what good is it to have a big screen, and the sound is not even heard, what is being spoken.The sound is very, very important, to have a good sound, to have a clear sound, so the brethren can hear everything, and so there is no feedback, nor echo, nor all those things that hinder the believer to be comfortable listening to everything that is being spoken from The Great Tent Cathedral.[WSS] …therefore, many things are going to happen from one place to other places by means of that spoken Word; because faith is going to grow to the level where they can obtain everything those who can believe it.The person receives by faith the blessings of God; everything he can believe that God has promised, he can receive. The person is the one who sets limits to the blessing he can receive from God.Dont set limits to Gods blessings: believe them with all your heart, so that you may receive Gods blessings without limitations.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Look in the message “Conduct, Order and Doctrine,” this is booklet number 10 of this series of “QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON THE HOLY GHOST,”14 here is that topic. It says on page 491:164 And you say, “Well, what about the Pentecostals with the tongues then, Brother Branham?” I think they got the Holy Ghost. Sure they did. All right, why? Look. You believe Hes a good God? Thomas said one time, “You know, Lord…”All of the rest of them believed Him. Said, “Oh, we know Hes real!”“Oh,” Thomas said, “no, no, I dont believe it. The only way Ill believe it, Ill have to have some evidence. Ill have to stick my fingers in His side and in the prints of the nails in His hands.”Hes a good God. He said, “Come on, Thomas. Here you are.”“Oh,” Thomas said, “now I believe.”165 He said, “Yes, Thomas, after youve seen Me, and felt Me, and put My hand…your hands in My side, you believe. But how much greater is their reward who had never seen and yet believe.” Hes a good God. He gives you the desire of your heart, of course. Lets just believe Him. Thats the—thats the—thats the death stroke to Satan. When a man takes God at His Word, brother, thatll kill Satan every time. Thats the hardest hitting that Satan can get, when a man will take God at His Word. Yes, sir. As I said, “Man shall not live alone (Jesus, the other night), but every Word that proceedeth out… ([JBP] in other words, from the mouth of God).”[JBP] Notice how that stage will be as effective as those who will be there: because there will be a people (in the different places) there will be people, there will be individuals who will take God in His Word. And everything that will be spoken at that time, of international miracles: it will be a reality in all places as well; because they will be giving the blow to Satan. How? By taking that Word, grabbing that Word and believing It.And notice, it is the heavy blow that he will be given when he says: “Death, I will be your death.” See how death will already cease to exist for the human beings, for the chosen ones; the human beings, but identified in the chosen ones of God, the Church-Bride, where, with the transformation, it will destroy already the part of the body that is aging, the sicknesses and all that which is of the devil: all that will be eliminated; it will be a coup detat to death.Just as this coup detat will be given to the kingdom of darkness. What the devil will try to do at the end of the Millennium: he will try to give a coup detat to the Kingdom of God; but he will not succeed, he will not succeed.Now, notice how the Church-Bride —through the Word— will be giving a coup detat to death, because we will no longer see death, we will be transformed; and there everything that is of death will stop. That is, everything that causes the human being to grow old until he dies.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Lets turn to Hosea for a moment, to read this Scripture. Hosea 13:14 says:14 _I will ransom them from the power of the grave; I will redeem them from death: O death, I will be thy plagues; O grave, I will be thy destruction: repentance shall be hid from mine eyes._ [JBP] Lets see here, in this other Bible, to see if he wrote anything there. (I always go to these two Bibles, which are the ones he used the most; then I will check the others). Look here, he places there, so you can have it there: [WSS] «Rev. 17:8-17».[JBP] 8 to 17 of Revelation, which is that battle. There in verse 14 [chapter 17]:14 _These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful._ [JBP] He writes there: [WSS] «Rev. 17:8-17». But in 17 there are two points; it looks like its from 1-7, but its 17:8-17. And he also writes: [WSS] «Rev. 19:11-21, 6:7-8».There so that you also have those Scriptures there in that quote. He writes there (in this booklet of this excerpt which we read):[WSS] «The Word will kill Satan».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He goes on to say [“MM GREETING (2002-6-28)”]:[WSS] For the end time, for when the squeeze comes, look at what is promised; and all of that will be tied in with the Tent Vision.Look here: page 68 of the book of Quotations (those who have that book of Quotations); page 68, paragraph 584, it says…[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He quotes it there, but we are going to read it from the book of Quotations to read what he wrote there; here in the book of Quotations, page 68, paragraph 584, says:15 584 - “493 You know what I believe? The Seed has been sowed (You believe that?) ([JBP] it is what brother William is reading there in the message), for that great Church. Just like the wires has been laid through a building, every socket been tested by the Word, oh, my, every outlet tested by the Word.[495] Every light is hanging in its place. Only thing, waiting for the Master back there to turn on the switch. Thats right. Yes, sir. In the Word!”[JBP] And he writes there: [WSS] «The Master turns the lights on».[JBP] And at the top here, on page 68 above: [WSS] «The Man with the switch».That was in the message “WISDOM VERSUS FAITH.”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] There a little further on in the other page of the book of Quotations, in paragraph 593, look, it says:16 593 - “[518] There will come a Light, will rise.519 Whereabouts, over in Jerusalem? No, sir. Evening Lights will not rise in Jerusalem. The evening Lights goes (where?) in the West. They had their day and refused It.520 But the evening Light ([JBP] there he writes): [WSS] «summer» shall rise in the West (what for?), to shine upon the Word (what?), to ripen the fruit, bring forth the Bride Tree with the same signs, wonders, and fruits that they had at the beginning.”[JBP] And there he writes: [WSS] «The Sun / West», and he draws a Cornerstone and the ages.And he also writes: [WSS] «The Sun will ripen the grain in the West».That is what we had we had already quoted that.17[JBP] And he also writes: [WSS] «A revival. The Light in the West».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now look on page… Lets go now to page 48 of the message “THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT”; he says:18226 Oh, false light, yes, its cost the church the greatest robbery it ever had. Cold denominational creeds, brother, wont ripen a vindicated Word, a grain. The Bible said, Jesus said, “The Word of God is a—a Seed that a sower sowed.” See? And cold creeds wont ripen that Word. No, no!Cold blizzardy days wont ripen the wheat. No, indeedy! It takes the warmth of the sunlight, because it was Gods spoken Word to do such a thing with.And itll take the Word spoken of God, today, to show the saints of God that Jesus Christ lives. Just the same as He was yesterday, He is today. Creeds and denominations will never do it. Theyre cold and indifference, and the grain will rot right in the ground. It cant come forth under that.[JBP] And there he writes: [WSS] «It is a false light».«A glare = the denominations».And he also writes there: [WSS] «The Light of the Sun to ripen the grain».And he draws a Pyramid with flashes, and the ages.[JBP] Further on, on this same page 48 and 49 at the bottom, he says [P. 41]:229 Its where hes been. He stomped his seal of approval, and there you take it. And there she all led, right straight to the White House, and to Washington, DC, and—and the Council of Churches, and there you go. The clergymen taken them right on back, exactly what the Bible said they would do. [Brother Branham knocks six times on the pulpit—Ed.]My, wish that clock didnt go so fast! [Congregation says, “Take your time.”—Ed.]230 Now, just think now where were at. Look at the promises for the day, rejected again. How the churches has done in this last day, the denomination glare![JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «The promises for the day have been rejected».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And notice, there is a place where he says, in the message “GODS ONLY PROVIDED PLACE OF WORSHIP”19… Page 41 at the bottom says:271 Moses was in Him. Joshua was in Him. And if you are in Him, you was in Him before the foundation of the world, the family of God; you suffered with Him, you died with Him, you went to the cross with Him, you raised with Him; and now youre still with Him, setting in Heavenly places, reflecting the Message of the age to the world, the Light of the world. “Ye are the Light of the world,” but if its hid by a denominational bushel basket, how are they going to see It? For your traditions, you make the Light of no effect! By trying…You denominationals, trying to keep the Light away from your church; you wont go in, neither will you let them. Amen.[JBP] And that is where he writes at the front: [WSS] «You neither go in nor let in».[JBP] There is an excerpt that was placed on Tuesdays Study, where we were talking about the children; we placed to that chat: “WORKING FOR OUR ADOPTION.”There is an excerpt that was placed there, notice, and I want to read it. You can find it in the January Studies book, part 5.20 Our brother William says: ON THE WINGS OF A WHITE EAGLE Dr. William Soto Santiago Thursday, June 24, 1976 Sabana Seca, Toa Baja, Puerto RicoSo that is what brother Branham says; he says that when Revelation 11 comes, he says that they will come baptizing as well; but you will see it is according to the baptism that corresponds to the dispensation in which they appear.[JBP] Notice that. And they appear in the Dispensation of the Kingdom.[WSS] (...) Now, we know that we have a baptism that corresponds to this third dispensation; and see that for each baptism there is the Name of God corresponding to the dispensation in which you are living.We know that for this dispensation we have the baptism in the Waters of the Word…[JBP] Now, remember, all of this that is being spoken there on that occasion, notice it is like when brother Branham is preaching and talking about the Throne of Judgment, and talking about all that would be happening when He comes out of the Throne of Intercession; and everybody was concerned, because he was talking in a certain way that it seemed like He was already —at that time— out of the Throne of Intercession, that is, Throne of Mercy, and that He was as a Judge, as a Lion, not as a Lamb. But further on there he says: [WMB] “That lays in the future. That is not yet, He is still on the Throne of Mercy.”21Now, all this time that he spoke there in that decade from 74 to 77, a little bit more, around there, all of that is now being fulfilled.In other words, that couldnt have been happening there, because we were still in the Dispensation of Grace; and in the Dispensation of Grace He is as Lamb, He is not as Lion. As a Lion He is in the Dispensation of the Kingdom.And notice how it started with baptisms, then it was stopped; because seven stages are traveled.Now, there is something very important there, that we must not overlook: all that was happening there also, although it was in the physical part, all that corresponded in the spiritual realm; because there was a rapture; notice, there was a birth as well; the Bride was resurrected there. In other words, there were many things that at that time were being fulfilled in the spiritual realm.Notice, then the stages passed, the seven stages, and in 2000 he places us in the seventh stage there; and the baptisms began again. Notice, it was the stage corresponding to the seventh stage that brother Branham was also in. Then it stopped.And that interlace entered completely there; because that interlace of one dispensation with another was already in process; and then, the Dispensation of the Kingdom already entered there.And where it will be more pronounced is when the Millennium begins; and the Dispensation of the Kingdom will be completely there. But the beginning of that dispensation corresponds while we are still in these bodies.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] See, he goes on to say [“ON THE WINGS OF A WHITE EAGLE”]:[WSS] We know that for this dispensation we have the baptism in the Waters of the Word, and all those literal baptisms come now to… or they were pointing out that a baptism in the Waters of the Word would come; and then that baptism in the Waters of the Word would remove all the errors that we may have, it would cleanse us from all errors, from all denominational sin, from all sin of dogmas, creeds and traditions, which are more evil than the literal ones; why? Because literal sin, well… sin… there are sins of the flesh and there are sins here, in the soul; therefore, religious sin or denominational sin (with dogmas, creeds and traditions) is more evil than natural sin.Now, see, we are living in this third dispensation, and we have to examine through the Message of the hour everything that corresponds to this third dispensation ([JBP] that is, of the last three, this is the Dispensation of the Kingdom, he refers to that), because in the Church ages there were things which would be taken away when the third dispensation would come and an eternal age would come.[JBP] Notice that he was already saying there that when that third dispensation and that eternal age came: those things, those types and figures, would be taken away. That is why you cant say that you were already or that we were already in that Dispensation of the Kingdom; because later in 2000 we began with baptisms, but… and that corresponds to the Dispensation of Grace; in other words, we were still in the Dispensation of Grace.Now, notice how there, under that new dispensation, is the way…, and how the way for that cleansing of sins is: It is under that new order and under that new Mercy Seat; under the deep Waters of the Word, under the Waters of the Word.All that which was spoken at that time, we will be seeing how it will be fulfilled and has been fulfilled in this time that we have been living, which we will be seeing more clearly how all that is being fulfilled.Therefore, dont worry: nothing escapes God, and He hasnt left His people without a place to cast their faults (that is, because we are still in this body); and we are going to be seeing how to keep ourselves clean immersed in the Waters of the Word: the Word made flesh today.Now, that excerpt was placed there, because those chats, we dont have the part of…; sometimes on the cell phone we have some excerpt maybe that we read; but when the Study is placed there we attach it, so that it is a little more open and more understandable what is being spoken: with foundation; and then we abound in other Studies, in order to have a clear understanding of these topics, which we are interested in; because we are in a dispensation, and we have to know how to do in this dispensation in all aspects.It is on page 211 of Volume 5 of January [2023], so that you may have that excerpt written down there.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now, here where we stopped, on page 48 at the bottom, where he said there [“THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT”] [P. 41]:230 Now, just think now where were at. Look at the promises for the day, rejected again. How the churches has done in this last day, the denomination glare![JBP] He writes there: [WSS] «The promises today have been rejected».And he continues on page 49; a small part here he says:231 Living in the false glare is the reason that It wont ripe.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Does not ripen with a glare».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] I am still in the message of the words of greeting of June 28. Our brother William continues to say, after he quoted quote number 584 [“MM GREETING (2002-6-28)”]:[WSS] “Turn the switch” where? In the Word.And now, lets go to another place: page 119… Remember that from age to age the Light of the Word has been kindled; Christ, who is the Light, has illuminated it; and therefore, He has had an instrument with the switch in his hand to turn on the Light of that age. It is as simple as that.And now, this is a part of the message where he talks about a family that went with their children ([JBP] and he is talking about this message “THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT”) (a little boy and a little girl), and they went to a place where in the tourist trip they were taken to a cave; it had light, but then the guide, or a person who received the guides signal, turned off the light. In a cave, imagine, it was very dark.And the little sister, the little girl began to scream; to scream because of the darkness (that is terrifying); but the little boy had seen who turned off the light, and he told the little girl: “Little sister, dont be afraid! Dont be afraid, there is a man with the switch in his hand; there is a man who can turn on the light”; he had seen him.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Lets go there for a moment, on the page of that message that he is quoting there: “THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT.”22 On page 54 of this message, it says:255 Here not long ago a minister was saying that he was down in Florida, and he had him a—a car, I believe it was a Chevrolet, and the thing went out on him. He couldnt get it fixed. And he went into the garage, and a little old mechanic was going under it and over it, and pecking around; he couldnt get it fixed. And he—he would try this, and it wouldnt work. And hed try something else; it wouldnt work. Hed put on a generator, put on this, and put in plugs ([JBP] that is, the sparks), put in points; he couldnt make the thing work ([JBP] that is, the car). He just couldnt make it work.Finally, a nice-dressed man stepped up. He said, “May I give you some advice?”([JBP] You know, very… [refined]).256 The little mechanic [WSS] «doctor, master» had sense enough to say, “Yes, sir.”He said, “You take this, and times this and this, and,” he said, “put that together once and try it.” And he took this times that, and put it together, and there she went.257 The little mechanic turned around…[JBP] There he writes: [WSS] «doctor».[JBP] And here, where he says: 257 The little mechanic ([JBP] he writes): _[WSS] «_doctor» turned around, and said, “Say, who are you?” He was the engineer, General Motors chief engineer. ([JBP] Imagine!, he already knew what the trick of the car was. He was the one who designed it, created it)._ He made the thing. He was the one designed it._ [WSS] «The Engineer».And there he writes, brother William: [WSS] «The car outside of time.The Bride out of step, time».And he writes: [WSS] «The electric current — faith in the promised Word today».[JBP] Look at that! The such great Teaching that there is here. How the Bride will be in the right step; for he saw her out of step at the end of time.23But there is a Man with the Switch! In other words, that current, the electricity, is the promised Word being fulfilled today.258 And, today, when were talking about Methodist, Baptist, and Presbyterian. The Chief Mechanic is here; the Designer of His Word, the Man Who created the heavens and earth, and designed His Church! Does He know more about what it takes for the Rapture, or does the Methodist or Baptist church know more about what it takes?[JBP] In other words, can the religious leaders know more? Because they are religious leaders who are against the Divine Program corresponding to this end time, in the stage of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom.Can they know more than the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, who was seen by brother Branham working the miracles and wonders in the Tent Vision? Will they know more than the Designer of the Heavens and the Earth? Will they know more? They are very wrong. And that will not ripen the wheat; that is a reflection, a glare.[258] He is the Designer. He knows what it takes. He is well dressed in the Power of His resurrection. Hallelujah! He is walking among us, today, in the Power of His resurrection._He knows_ ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «the Thunders_»_ what it takes to put a Church in Rapture order. He designed It, and put the parts together here in the Bible. Amen! Just let the Current flow through It, now watch It operate.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Page 254 [p. 301 in Eng. (Fourth Seal)] of The Seals**:** [WMB] “When that group can take the Word ([JBP] How does it say?) and place it well.” That it is running through their veins; as it says here.[180] Wait till them Seven Thunders utter Their voices…[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Notice, and he says here [“THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT”] [Page 45]: [258]_ He knows what it takes_ ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «the Thunders»…[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And here in The Seals says [p. 301 in Eng.]:[180] Wait till them Seven Thunders utter Their voices to that group who really can take the Word of God and hand It there, Itll slice and cut. And they can close the heavens. They can shut this, or do that, whatever they want to. [WSS] «Moses and Elijah with the elect».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He continues saying [“THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT”] [Page 45]: [258] Let faith, in His promised Word of today, flow through, youll see how It operates. Why? He designed the thing. He designed His Church by the Word. Thats what He puts together. Not by Methodist, or Baptist, or Presbyterian, or Pentecostal organization; but by His Word. “Man shall live not by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds from the mouth of God.” Yes, sir.259 Get out of them glares…[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «The glares». And he writes: [WSS] «God in flesh resurrected». And he also writes: [WSS] «Rapturing Faith».[259] …in the midst of darkness, this dark time that were living in now. (Just got about five minutes more left.) In the midst of darkness, who is going to bring the little Bride out? Who knows about It? The Chief Designer. Oh, yeah. From all this confusion of glare![JBP] And he draws a star, and a Pyramid with flashes, and the ages. And he writes: [WSS] «Who will bring the little Bride out from the midst of the glares?».[JBP] And do you know Who it is? The ministries of Moses and Elijah, the harvesting Angels; the ones who come bringing the separation, the segregation between right and wrong.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now, when the Light is turned on… Look, “THE GOD OF THIS EVIL AGE,”24 page 19 says:76 The doctors take instruments and try to find whats wrong. They cant do it. We cant tell. But then the Holy Spirit comes out and reveals what he is, and exposes him. See? Thats what the Word of God is. It is a Light that shines in darkness._And when you_ ([JBP] hear)_ take a noise in the room_ ([JBP] he writes): [WSS] «hear_»_ ([JBP] he says: “hear,” because the translation was there), it sounds mysterious; a bunch of something working, and you dont know what it is. Turn on the light, quickly… Crickets, roaches, theyre—they are children of the darkness. And when the light flashes, they scatter away.“They went out from us because they wasnt of us,” the Bible said. See? They cannot live in the Light of the world…For, the God of Heaven has sent His Light in this last days, that He might lighten the path for His children, that they might not walk in darkness and stumble, but they might walk in the Light of the shining of Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever.[JBP] And there he writes: [WSS] «Crickets, cockroaches / children of darkness».And he also writes: [WSS] «Turn on the Light and you will see the children of darkness running…».25[JBP] A “sal pafuera” [riot]. That is what they commonly say. There has been a “riot” in this end time.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He continues to say on page 54, I am already going to 55, of the message “THERE IS A MAN THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT” [P. 46] says:[259] Here, the Methodist glaring one way, the Baptist another, and the Presbyterian another, and the Pentecostals another, all this glares around. They run, put their name over here, in this glare here; come to find out, something there. And come over here; and something there. Come over here…260 Like I said to that priest, “If you all are the original church, and you went after the doctrine of these men set together at Nicaea, why is it you havent got the power that they had back there in the beginning then? Why dont you do the things that they did, which Jesus said?”Said, “Oh, we are more people now. We, we live in a different age.”261 I said, “But the Word doesnt change. He said, These signs shall follow them to all the ages. Heavens and earth will pass away, but My Word shall never. Thats it.”He said, “Well, youre talking about a Bible.”262 I said, “Yes, the Word, which is Christ.” Thats right. And so there you are. See?263 And in this glare, the Methodist showing theirs, the Baptist showing theirs, the Presbyterian theirs, each one growing bigger and bigger, all the time.The poor little Bride, where is She at? She run over here at the Pentecostal Oneness, a while; She put Her name on there, and She say, well…Come to find out, look what they do. They come over here, and, “You got to belong to us. If you dont belong to our church…”[JBP] There he draws the Cornerstone and the ages, and points to the seventh age.[263] …“You got to belong to us. If you dont belong to our church, youre not even in the Bride. Youre not even nothing.” Go over here at the Assemblies, and look what they got; there you are again. Go down to the Baptists, look what they got. Look at the Presb-…264 Whats going to happen to the poor little Thing? See? But She is coming forth. Dont you worry. She is going to be there.265 A fellow was saying, here about a couple years ago.[JBP] Here is where the story that brother William told us about the man with the switch comes in.Now, remember, all that which represents that part where those glares, which are…; there he places them as the Methodists, Baptists and Presbyterians and all that; that is what is happening at this time with churches of this end time, which are under those glares and not under the Light, which is the Pillar of Fire.265_ A fellow was saying, here about a couple years ago. He was down in New Mexico_ ([JBP] He writes): [WSS] «[in] Mexico»_. I held a meeting there close to Carlsbad Caverns. Youve heard of them down there, the great…And they took a man and his wife, and a bunch of children, went on this elevator, went all the way down to the very bottom of the pit _([JBP] That is where this happens)_. And when they got down there, they turned all the lights off. And when they turned all the lights off, it was midnight dark._ I had them to do that over here in these gardens here, and at one time at over in Colorado there, wife and I, back there, was in there. And they turned them lights on. My, you put your hand like this, you couldnt see nothing.And there was a little girl ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «the Bride» standing there, and she begin screaming, “Oh!” Screaming. She, she was scared to death, it was so dark. The poor little thing was grabbing everywhere, and trying to scream and holler for her papa, mama, everywhere. She just couldnt stand it, it was so dark. She never seen such darkness.266 And thats about the way it is now. Thats right. Its so dark you dont know where to go.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now, there is a place in Isaiah where it says, “Awaken,” Isaiah 60, verse 1:1 _Arise, shine; for thy light is come, and the glory of the Lord is risen upon thee._ [JBP] And in verse 7:7 _All the flocks of Kedar shall be gathered together unto thee, the rams of Nebaioth shall minister unto thee: they shall come up with acceptance on mine altar, and I will glorify the house of my glory._ [Rev. Jose B. Perez] He continues to say [“THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT”] [P. 47]:[266] Its so dark you dont know where to go. You go to the Methodist, go to the Baptist, go to the Presbyterian, its all the same thing, see, eating that old dead, rotten manna with wiggletails in it. See, same thing, some creed, “Come in and join this*, and the other,* that*,” old creed and everything. You dont see Christ in it. See? Oh, you see self-righteous people, I would say so. Many are fine people in there now, in them denominations. Im saying the system, not the people in there. But, you see, thats what theyre eating on. Tell them about it!And Here is fresh Food![JBP] See, remember that all that is what happens in this dispensation too; but it is in the seventh stage, not the eighth. The same thing that happened there in the time of brother Branham, which he, a time came where he was out of the seventh age.[266] And Here is fresh Food![JBP] Where? At this time: Here; is where he saw behind the curtains that mountain of Bread.26267 And this little girl standing there, she was screaming, top of her voice, about to go into hysterics; about like the little Bride is.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «When the Light of the seventh age went out, which was: 4th Elijah».[JBP] The Bride became hysterical.Now, see that when that seventh age came to its end… Because he said in 200027, for how long it will last, I dont know if he said right there: one year, two years (I dont know up to how much). But see that what started there with the baptisms was going to have an end, of that seventh stage.Now, notice how in 2018, at the end, that seventh stage ended, which he spoke that we had begun in 2000; and after that he left. And the Bride was left in desperation, screaming; as it happened there: [WSS] «When the Light of the seventh age went out, which was: the 4th Elijah».Now see what he was representing there in his fourth manifestation, what he was representing. And what was being fulfilled at that time of the departure from this planet Earth of the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ, at the end of the seventh age, seventh stage; which, the next thing was going to be the Dispensation of the Kingdom, the Eighth Age; and therefore, there had to be a man with the Switch to turn on that Light.And that way the little boy could say to his little sister: “Dont worry, there is a man who can turn on the Light.”[“THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT”] [Page 47][267]_ …about like the little Bride is. But you know what? Her little brother cried out, said, “Little sister, dont fear.” Cause, he was standing right by the engineer_ ([JBP] he writes): [WSS] «the Engineer»_. Said, “There is a man here who can turn on the lights.”_ [JBP] Do you remember the mechanic?, that he put: [WSS] «doctor, master». See, he did what he told him to do: and the car started.And that little brother had seen who had at that time the switch, and… (How the pictures open up so beautifully!); because there was somebody who saw, and saw that Engineer. But notice that he then comes to say to the Church-Bride: “There is a Man who can turn on the Light.”Everything that happened in that time of the end 2018, beginning 2019, notice how it was reflected in that time of our brother Branham, of the seventh stage or Age of Laodicea; and how he there puts it and makes that type and figure of that little girl there in the cave, which he tells us… He says:[267] Said ([JBP] the little brother), “There is a man here who can turn on the lights.” Dont fear, little Sister, there is a Man here Who can turn on the Light. He can make this Word live.[JBP] So, what is the subject? “THE MYSTERY OF THE LIGHT THAT SCATTERS DARKNESS.” The Light is the Word.[267] We dont know how Hes coming. We dont how, when Hes coming. I dont know nothing about that. But He is here, and He can turn on the Lights. How we going to get out of it? I dont know. But Hes here, and Hes the One that can turn on the Lights. Yes, sir. He is the One. He is the Light. He just makes Hisself known, thats how He turns on the Light. Exactly right.It takes Christ, to flash away on His Lights, then all the darkness scatters. He separates. He is pulling His little Bride out. “Ill take a people out of the Gentiles, for My Names sake, thatll have My Name.” What is His Name? All right. Not Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Lutheran. Its Jesus Christ. Thats right.268 He is the Light, the Truth; the Light, and there is no darkness in Him. And He scatters the darkness when He comes in, because He is the Word. The Word is the Light. Thats right. Because, He spoke and said, “Let there be light,”...[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now, lets see something here in the message here, this one of “THE SERPENTS SEED,”28 on page 6 it says:28 Why would Paul commiss-…command that after it had been done? Paul said, “Even if a Angel from Heaven come and preached anything else, let him be accursed.”29 Now you say, “We got new Light on it.” No, you havent. Thats what the devil come to Eve with, some new Light. You dont need no new Light. You need to walk in the Light that God has already put here, thats all.30 Now watch this, just how simple. When they come down from Mount Transfiguration, Jesus said, to His disciples, “Who does man say I the Son of man am?”“One said You are Moses, or Elias, one of the prophets.’”He said, “Who do you say?”31 He said, Peter said, “Thou art Christ, the Son of the living God.”32 He said, “Blessed art thou, Simon, the son of Jonas; for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you.” See, it doesnt come through seminaries. It doesnt come through denominations. “Flesh and blood has not revealed this to you. You never learned it through any school of theology. But My Father, which is in Heaven, has revealed this to you. And upon this rock Ill build My Church; and the gates of hell cant prevail against it,” a spiritual revelation of Who He is.[JBP] Now, he writes there: [WSS] «The Light of the evening came so that in the morning we may walk in that Light».[JBP] Now notice that in the evening, when we said goodbye, he told me: [WSS] “Come in the morning, we will see each other in the morning to talk in the morning about what we talked about today.”And in the morning, already in the morning, he couldnt talk. He wasnt ministering in the morning. He ministered until that evening it was already evening. What time was it that you took me there? About 8:00 at night; that there was the last time we talked.And when I went there early in the morning, he was gone. That is, his body was there, but from that moment on he didnt speak, and only…; that is, there was no conversation, but we can say: I alone was left.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] See, he goes on to say here… I am on page 57 [“THERE IS A MAN THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT”] [P. 48]: [268] And He scatters the darkness when He comes in, because He is the Word. The Word is the Light. Thats right. Because, He spoke and said, “Let there be light,” that was the Word that become light. When He speaks This, its the Light of that age, each time. Now He is here, in—in not in a glare; but people are living in a glare. But He is the vindicated Word. He is absolutely the—the Light in the time of darkness. Yes, sir. All these false glares and things will fade away. Yes, sir. He is here. Dont fear. Turn on the Lights, His promised Word. It lives.[JBP] And again he writes there, as he wrote over there: [WSS] «The electric current = the Word fulfilled».[268] It makes…“He that believeth in Me, the works that I do, ye do also.” Then, it is the Word. “As the Father sent Me, so send I you.” The Father that sent Him, come in Him. The Jesus that sends you, comes in you. And the works that He did then, He does the same thing, because (why?) the Word is made flesh, in human flesh, manifests Itself as the Light of the day. There we are. There it is. It just is showing the way to Light, in the Light. Wise men, who are not blinded by creeds and denomination, will walk in that Light. Oh, my!269 There is a Man here that can turn on the Lights, all right. What does He do? By vindicating His Word for this day. Jesus, the Son of God, Who promised the Word for this day, is right here with us.Dont get scared. Dont pay any attention to what theyre doing; you do, youll walk in darkness.Be wise.[JBP] See, those who are under glare walk in darkness; which, as we read: [WSS] «Neither enter nor let enter» either.[269] “They that do wise,” Daniel said, “in these last days, will do exploits for their God.” See? See? Theyll walk in the Light, as He is in the Light.[JBP] Look at what he says about those who reject the Light… There (in the message that we are reading) he writes, referring to that page, he says:[WSS] «He who rejects the Light is a delinquent: (he is crazy)». [JBP] And in delinquent he writes: [WSS] «[before God]».[JBP] So that you dont think that one is calling delinquent those who are not receiving the Light of the Shekinah, and are under spotlights or glares.He writes there: [WSS] «before God», they are delinquents: [WSS] «he is crazy».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And in “THE UNVEILING OF GOD,”29 on page 43, it says:251 Now, what if a fellow refuses to see the sun, say, “Oh, there, I know God said, Let there be light, but there is no such a thing…[JBP] That is, when he says: “No, I know that in the Tent Vision this and that will happen there.”[251] …but there is no such a thing…[JBP] That is, “it is not so,” in the way that it was happening.[251] Im going down in the basement.[JBP] To the seventh age, where they are in darkness; they go back again. That is why that sin (that excerpt we placed there): that of creeds, dogmas, traditions and all those things, is worse or more evil than the sins of the flesh themselves.[251] “I—I just refuse to see it”? The guy is crazy.[JBP] Brother Branham said it here as well. Brother William placed it there and surely he has some references of this message. [251] The guy is crazy. There is something wrong with him.252 There is something wrong with a man or woman, can see the promise of God and, see It manifested, and then refuse to believe It because the denomination pulls the veil down. See, veiled![JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «He who does not want to see the Light is crazy (he is in the 5th dimension)».[JBP] Look where all those who reject the Light of the Last Day are, the Light of the One who has the switch, the One who has turned on the Light of a new dispensation.He goes on to say… Lets see if we then finish here, so we can go ahead here. But all this is the Word of God.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Look, here in this paragraph where we stopped in the greeting, he says [“MM GREETING (2008-6-28)”]:[WSS] And throughout the Scripture we have to see who that man is; who is the man who is promised for the Last Day that will turn on the Light of the age relevant to this end time and of the dispensation relevant to our time.[JBP] Now, in each age the chosen ones of that age had to see who is the man that turned on the Light in that age.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now, look here what it says on page 42 of this same message “THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT,”30 he says:198 Elijah was the Light. “Go out there and set on that hill! Ive commanded the ravens to feed you.”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Elijah was the Light».And he also writes: [WSS] «Elijah = was the Light of God».[198] Yes, sir.199 He come back down with THUS SAITH THE LORD. “Not even dew will fall from Heaven till I call for it.” Amen! “Sun might shine, you might call for all the clouds, and do anything you want to, but not even dew will come till I call for it.” What was he? The Light! Hallelujah! He was the Light. The Light! He was the Word of God made manifest. [WSS] «flesh».200 They thought he was crazy, setting up there. He had porters feeding him; and them starving to death. They wanted to live in their traditions; go ahead. Not Moses, or not Elijah, he was living right in the Light. Setting up there by the brook, Cherith, and just having a good time; having meals, and somebody to take care of him, and everything. They thought he was crazy, but he was—he was the Light.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «The prophets are the Light in human flesh for their day». PASTORS KNOWING THE TIME AND WATCHING AT THE LAST DAY (Ministers Meeting) Dr. William Soto Santiago Monday, September 15, 2008 San Luis Potosi, MexicoSo, there will be no problems when we are transformed, the problems we have while we are in this mortal body. Being in these bodies is that we have to have patience, but to be aware of the time in which we are living and to be watching for the Coming of the Lord, which is promised for the world as a thief in the night.But for those who will be watching, it will not take them as a thief in the night because they will be awake spiritually; they will be as in the day, they will be as in the day with the Light of the Word; and therefore, for them it will be a time as in the day, illuminated with the Word of God for the time.The Word, says Reverend William Branham, that the Word made flesh is the Light of the age when they see it; that is why Christ said: “I am the Light of the world; he who follows me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the Light of life.”31[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Lets look for that excerpt that he quotes there of brother Branham. That is on page 128, paragraph 1141, he says [Quotations]:32 1141 - “[115]* The Word made flesh is the Light of the age; when you see It, and the Bible said so.”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «The Light is the Word made flesh».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He goes on to say [“MM PASTORS KNOWING THE TIME…”]:[WSS] And now, we can also see how the Sun of Righteousness will be shining, illuminating us and we will be as in the daytime in this end time. When we see these things, we will be as in the daytime.And for the believers in Christ they will be seeing the Sun that will rise in the East, the land of Israel; they will already be seeing it in the evening time; in the evening time of the kingdom of the gentiles and in the evening time of the Kingdom of God, because the days begin in the evening.See? We are already having light of what is going to be the Light of the complete Dispensation of the Kingdom.[JBP] See, because the same light of the evening (because the days begin in the evening), the same light of the evening is the light of the morning. And look where that is intertwined: how there in the evening (already night) of that day, notice how there something was intertwined; and in the morning it is still the same Light, because it is still God, it is still His Spirit.It is like when we would say… brother Branham says that His Coming is three times33; and he also says, a part in the book of Quotations, that: [WMB] “Jesus, His glorified body (the body that He received when He resurrected), does not step on the Earth when He comes for His Bride in His Second Coming.” But His Spirit, when He says in the book of The Seals: [WMB] “When this Holy Spirit that we have, the one that is in our midst, when He becomes incarnate…”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Lets look it up, I think it is page 277 [p. 327 in Eng. (Fourth Seal)]: [WMB] “The one in our midst in the form of the Spirit…” [The Seals]:[391] …may the Holy Spirit come down now, the white-horse Rider…[JBP] Who is the white horse Rider? The Holy Spirit. So that we get the picture. And that is Revelation 19.[391] …may the Holy Spirit come down now, the white-horse Rider, while His Spirit, Spirit of Christ, in the face of antichrist, and call His Own.And on 134 [p. 158 in Eng. (First Seal)] says [The Seals]:[302] Notice! And when this Holy Spirit that we have becomes incarnate to us, the One thats in our midst now in the form of the Holy Ghost…[JBP] That is why a blasphemy against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, Jesus said at His First Coming.34[302] …becomes incarnate to us, in the Person of Jesus Christ…[JBP] Now, he says that Jesus doesnt put His feet on the Earth.Now remember it is always the Spirit of Christ in the prophets. But, just as He became flesh in the fullness of Jesus, that Holy Spirit will become incarnate in all His fullness; because a Spirit cant be crowned.35He says [Quotations]:36 382 - “67 There will never be a Jesus set a foot on this earth until the Church done raptured and gone. Now, you just bear that in mind, because therell be false christs rise up. But Jesus will not be here on earth; cause the trumpet sounds, and He never comes, we meet Him in the air. The Church is already gone. And then when Jesus appears, itll be the returning back. The Gentiles goes to meet Him in the air. Is that Scripture? See? They go to meet Him in the air, and then we go up. And Jesus is...never puts His feet on the earth until the Church has been raptured and took Home and the Wedding Suppers over in Heaven; then He returns back after the Jewish remnant.”[JBP] Now notice how in His First Coming He was on Earth, He receives a glorified body; but when He comes in His Second Coming, he says: “But it says there that He doesnt set foot on Earth”: His glorified body.But notice that He later, after the great tribulation, comes (which is the third time): with His Church.• He comes to redeem us in His First Coming.• He comes to seek us in His Second Coming.• And the Third Coming with His Church.And there you see the three Comings.And if we place the one after the Millennium: when we are placed in the New Jerusalem, which will arise from the center of the Earth; that is…[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Is there another place? That one. There it is. That is from the message “QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.” Lets see here, page 2-A, paragraph 14, it says [Quotations]: 14 - “[103] For theres going to be an Elect …”[JBP] Lets go in parts, because we stayed there and I didnt read what he wrote. We had read paragraph 382. Lets go there for a moment, because there was something to read (that he wrote there), so that you can write it down.[JBP] He writes: [WSS] «Rapture».[WSS] «The return of the Lord in the air». [JBP] See?And he writes: [WSS] «Moses and Elijah, and the 144,000».So that you have it there.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And here on 2-A it says, paragraph 14, says [Quotations]:37 14 - “[103]_ For theres going to be an Elect whos going to live through the Millennium Age and will go in and out with Christ for a thousand years, and then they shall go up into Glory with Him and return again. When the resurrection of the wicked is brought forth_ ([JBP] See? You have it there as well…), then the Millennium will set… After the Millennium is over, then Christ will go up with the Church, and at the end of the thousand years He will return with the Church.104 Christ comes three times. The first time, He came to redeem His Church. Is that right? The second time, He comes to receive His Church. The third time, He comes with His Church. See? He come to redeem Her; He comes to rapture Her and be caught away, in the time of the plagues and so forth; returns back for the Millennium, lives through the Millennium.105 And then the great King and Queen comes down for the Judgment.”[JBP] Now notice how he says there: [WMB] “The King and Queen comes down for the Judgment”; that is after the Millennium.Remember that all this has to be looked at… Because this part here that he talked about that we read in 382, that was in 1960, which he was preaching The Ages; and even there when he was preaching The Ages, he placed the Bride going through the tribulation; then the Holy Spirit corrected him and told him that [WMB] “no, the Bride doesnt go through the tribulation.”38See that later on, in The Seals, he corrected all that when he preached it in 1963. In other words, all that which was spoken there has to be seen in the Light of The Seals; because when he says that [WMB] “He doesnt set foot on Earth until the Bride is raptured, and then He comes,” see? That there one has to place all that in the Light of The Seals.Because in the Coming of the Lord He comes for His Church, which is the mystery of the Seventh Seal, the Coming of the Son of Man with His Angels; and when the Jews see Him, there they will say: “But this is the one we are waiting for!” Yes, but He is not coming for them.—“Hey!, but doesnt He step His feet on Earth doesnt He put His feet on Earth? But how is this?”Notice, it is the Holy Spirit incarnated in this end time, which is fulfilling that promise, and thus the Church-Bride is being prepared to obtain the Rapturing Faith.And in the midst of all that time (or in the midst of a part of that time), there the Jews will see Him and will recognize Him; and that will be the stage about to begin, where the 144,000 will be sealed; and then… Before the great tribulation begins; page 359 [p. 424 in Eng. (Sixth Seal)] of the book of The Seals, that happens just before the great tribulation begins.In other words, there is an interlace there so that from one moment to the next the seventieth week of Daniels prophecy begins, which is the three and a half years that are yet to be fulfilled. That is already under that adopted ministry.[JBP] Now, we can see that on page 134 [p. 158 in Eng. (First Seal)], when he speaks there [The Seals]:302 Glory! Notice! And when this Holy Spirit that we have becomes incarnate to us, the One thats in our midst now in the form of the Holy Ghost, becomes incarnate to us, in the Person of Jesus Christ, well crown Him King of kings [and Lord of lords].[JBP] Notice how and when the Lord is crowned as King of kings and Lord of lords: Now as a ministry of reclamation; no longer as a Lamb but as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, King of kings and Lord of lords in His Reclaiming Work.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And he goes on to say here, our brother William tells us, he continues to say [“MM PASTORS KNOWING THE TIME…”]:[WSS] And now, we can also see how the Sun of Righteousness will be shining, illuminating us and we will be as in the daytime in this end time. When we see these things, we will be as in the daytime.And for the believers in Christ they will be seeing the Sun that will rise in the East, the land of Israel, they will already be seeing it in the evening time, in the evening time of the kingdom of the gentiles and in the evening time of the Kingdom of God, because the days begin in the evening.See? We are already having light of what will be the Light of the entire Dispensation of the Kingdom. See? We are already seeing the Light.It says: “In the evening time there will be Light”; and someone will be seeing it: those who will not be sleeping.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] In the message: PASTORS ATTENTIVE AND OBEDIENT TO THE WORD OF GOD (Ministers Meeting) Dr. William Soto Santiago Friday, January 30, 2009 Bucaramanga, Santander, ColombiaSo, we find that mankind, in the stage of the feet of iron and clay, is in serious trouble; and sometimes we wonder what is happening.What is happening has to be in the prophetic Word; which, what it needs is Light: the Light of divine revelation being brought…[JBP] Notice that the prophetic Word was brought, and it is also a prophetic Word that is being spoken.Because it was a prophetic Word that was spoken by the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ of things that were going to happen, of how that new dispensation was going to come forth and the things that were happening in that new dispensation; but also at this time that Man who has the Switch, who can turn on the Light, who can turn on the Light of a new dispensational day, he will also be speaking the prophetic Word of all that which God will be fulfilling in the midst of that transition from the kingdom of the gentiles to the Kingdom of the Messiah.And he will also be speaking and making known the Rapturing Faith, the Faith for Gods elect, the Bride, the Little Girl, the Little Sister, may know and know that there is a Man who can turn on the Light, not to be saddened, that there is a Light. [WMB] “When that persecution comes, dont be afraid, there is a Light, there is a Man who can kindle that Light”; and that Man is the Holy Spirit.[WSS] …being taught in the Message relevant to our time, to then see what is happening, so that our eyes may be illuminated.Because prophecy is not of private interpretation; the one who gave it is Christ, the Holy Spirit, and He is the only one who can interpret it correctly; and He has been in His messengers through the different stages of His Church.For this time, He will be revealing His Word according to how He has planned, and it must then be according to the way He has always done, “for the Lord will do nothing, except He first reveal His secrets (to whom?) to His servants, His prophets.” So for our time there must be an instrument through which Christ reveals His prophetic Word relevant to our time.And now, you see, the Voice of Christ crying out as when a lion roars and seven thunders speaking their voices, in some stage of the Church has to be; and if it was not in the seven ages, then it corresponds to our time: The Age of the Cornerstone…[JBP] If it didnt correspond to the seven stages when he said: [WSS] “From here… Here begins this seventh stage,”… and he placed us in the seventh stage; and then that seventh stage ends in 2018; well then there has to come a time for this Voice thundering with Seven Thunders to be fulfilled.[WSS] …corresponds ([JBP] to what?) to our time: the Age of the Cornerstone; because there in Revelation 10, He was crying out as when a lion roars.Therefore, it must be for the Age of the Cornerstone ([JBP] that is, for the Eighth Age), because for the seven Church ages He was not as Lion, but as a Lamb ([JBP] And there we can say: When he was in those seven stages, he was as Lamb, he was not as Lion), as the Lamb sacrificed in the Sacrifice of Atonement for human sin.[JBP] Remember that in the Dispensation of the Kingdom seven consecutive stages are traveled; but there is one stage that travels (which is the stage in which we are now), which is the stage where those seven consecutive stages are being traveled, which is the Voice of the Seven Thunders.[WSS] And now, just as Christ spoke through each messenger in the seven ages, He will be speaking, and He spoke as Lamb and also as High Priest, He will be speaking now as Lion, as Judge, as King in the Age of the Cornerstone; and He will be speaking consecutively and opening to us all these mysteries; and above all, the mystery of the Seventh Seal, the mystery for which there was silence in Heaven for about half an hour.(...) And now, through the Gospel of Christ for the Last Day, through the Gospel of Christ for the Dispensation of the Kingdom (which will be the Gospel of the Kingdom), all that mystery will be opened, and Christ will be giving us the revelation, the faith, for that physical transformation that we are waiting for.Reverend William Branham, when speaking of the Third Pull, also says that this stage will come to be when the time of redemption has already come to an end; but there will be a great manifestation of the power of God, and that will be in the midst of His Church.[JBP] See that that Third Pull will be for after the Dispensation of Grace, that has been as a Lamb until 2018 (lets say), if you put it by date; because that is when the baptisms ended; and those types and figures came up to that point, and that representation of the types and figures that had to be fulfilled under the Dispensation of Grace.And that will happen… he says there: “...when the time of redemption has already come to an end…” What will happen? The Third Pull.[WSS] And Reverend William Branham says that when the Jews see that, they will say: “This is the one we are waiting for.” Because that Mighty Angel that descends from Heaven, which is the Angel of the Covenant, the Messenger to Israel, the one that gave the Law to the Hebrew people, will now come to His Church; and they will see Him coming to His Church in the end time, in that full manifestation called: The Third Pull.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And now we will go for a moment here to the message “THE FUTURE HOME OF THE HEAVENLY BRIDEGROOM AND THE EARTHLY BRIDE,”39 (and attach this to where we read there from that message, from page 2-A was it?, from “QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS”). Here it also tells us… page 50 says:[373] _Enoch, before the antediluvian destruction, when justification was coming in, he brought forth a sign, and in this pyramid is seven steps going to the kings chamber. Watch on the seventh step, if you ever studied the dimensions of the pyramid_ ([JBP] and he draws a Cornerstone and the ages), what comes out to take the oncomer, to introduce to the king. Watch whose station that is standing there, and youll see the day youre living, in the pyramid.374 Now, God made three Bibles. Now, theres a pyramid teaching thats nonsense, but theres a genuine pyramid. See? Notice. Now, God, first Bible… He made three. There have to be everything in a three.375 Jesus comes three times ([JBP] that is where he also speaks on it)_. Come, once, to redeem His Bride; next time, to get His Bride; next time, with His Bride. See?_ 376 Now notice how beautiful. See? And in this pyramid was seven steps, and then the kings chamber. And were in the seventh church age, before the King takes His Throne. And, remember, the pyramid never did have a capstone on it.[JBP] There he writes: [WSS] «Jesus comes 3 times».[JBP] And now see that he went to the end of the seventh stage, where it culminated there; and then it is that that Stone comes, which is the Eighth Age.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He continues saying here in the message that we are reading [“MM PASTORS ATTENTIVE AND OBEDIENT TO THE WORD OF GOD”]:[WSS] And there will be in the end time a giant Tent Cathedral that was seen by Reverend William Branham, where he saw the Pillar of Fire placing Himself in a small room; therefore, the instrument that He will be using at that time will have to be there, and the Name of God will also be there.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now, look here a little part, at the end, of the message “THERE IS A MAN HERE THAT CAN TURN ON THE LIGHT,”40 in the prayer, a part here, he says:[286] And may the Light come forth upon the Word, the Seed, and bring forth every predestinated Seed thats been planted out here in these different glares and organizations. May they see like Nicodemus, even if they have to “come by night,” come to the Light.[JBP] Look how brother Branham there places it there, and puts him or places it as Nicodemus, who went by night to Jesus41; and he came out of the organization, out of the glares.[286] May they see like Nicodemus, even if they have to “come by night,” come to the Light. Grant it, Father.287 May there come forth this great issue, of this Rock thats cut out of the mountain, without hands ([JBP] there is the Cornerstone, the one that settles). Itll crush these Gentile kingdoms to the ground, all these kingdoms, spiritual kingdoms and natural kingdoms. And the Rock will cover the whole earth; itll be a purified affair.[JBP] And that is what we read that is there (from the excerpt that we are not going to read the things that are there), that this will be a reality. [287] Those who that Rock crush will be ground into powder; those who fall upon that Rock shall have a solid foundation.288 O Christ, let me, as Your servant, die off on this Rock, this Rock of Thy Word. Lord God, let me stand, as David, and them warriors of old who stood for David, let me stand for this Word today while I see Its rejected by the denominations. Its laying up here in a little retreat somewhere. O God, I…Grant that well have strength and courage, and the Holy Spirit, to stand, for the hours are getting darker and darker.But let us always remember that You are present to turn on the Light. At any hour that You wish to, You can turn the Light, Father.[JBP] And he writes there: [WSS] «The Rock, the Stone not cut by hands», and a Cornerstone.[JBP] And we could continue until we tie it with tomorrows activity, but we are going to pause. And tomorrow we will continue in the talk that we will have in the morning, which is the talk brother Miguel will place afterwards in his activity, the activity that he always has on Saturdays, which we are all connected to (on Saturday). But here we will have a talk in the morning, so that same talk, our brother Miguel will place it tomorrow.Today we have been seeing in this Study “THE MYSTERY OF THE LIGHT THAT SCATTERS DARKNESS.”We thus leave with us our dear brother and friend, Dr. William Soto Santiago.* * *

The Church of the Lord Jesus Christ began baptizing in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and then, when it entered a certain stage, they stopped baptizing in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ; and then, at the end, baptism in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ was restored.

All that happened, reflected what would happen in our age. And there I will not explain any more…; because I have told you other times that in our age and our dispensation the seven stages or ages of the Church are traveled, but consecutively.

So look where we are in the course of those seven stages through which the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ went. It was in the seventh stage where baptism in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ was restored. Look where we are in our age and in our dispensation.

(…) Well, lets leave it alone there and lets continue living this stage which is glorious. And after this stage, after this stage is finished…, and we do not know when it will be finished, but when the last one enters: it will be finished; and then: the resurrection of the dead in Christ and the transformation of us who are alive.

We do not know whether this year or the next, or in the year after, or we do not know in what year; but we know that in some of the years this stage will be completed, and then we will be transformed.

(...) When this stage is completed —which we do not know how long it will take to be completed—… This stage corresponds to what happened in the seventh age of the gentile Church, that is to say, it corresponds to the stage that was fulfilled in the Age of Laodicea.
