BIBLE STUDY #282
FRIDAY, FEBRUARY 17, 2023
(Second activity)
*Rev. Jose B. Perez***Scripture: Matthew 24:1-3** [Rev. Jose B. Perez] Let’s read here, in Mark, chapter 13, verse 24 and on, where it says:24 _But in those days, after that tribulation, the sun shall be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light,_ 25 _And the stars of heaven shall fall, and the powers that are in heaven shall be shaken._ 26 _And then shall they see the Son of man coming in the clouds with great power and glory._ [JBP] And there he writes: [WSS] «Rev. 10:1-11». 27 _And then shall he send his angels, and shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from the uttermost part of the earth to the uttermost part of heaven._ [JBP] And he also writes: [WSS] «Matthew 24:30-31, 16:27-28».And there is also the Scripture of: [WSS] «Malachi 4:2, Isaiah 60:1-2».And there he writes again: [WSS] «Rev. 10:1-11, 19:11-19».[JBP] All of that corresponds to the Coming of the Son of Man at the Last Day.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] It tells us in the book of Quotations,1 on page 139, in paragraph 1243, it says: 1243 - “92 That’s the reason that all these great mysteries could not be given to Luther, could not be given to Wesley, could not be given to the age that has just passed by us, the Pentecostal age. Why? It wasn’t time. They were begotten. Now, the Person of Christ, Himself, the Son of man (you understand?) revealing Himself in human flesh, it could not have come till now.”[JBP] And he writes there: [WSS] «The Person of Christ. The Son of Man revealed in human flesh».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] You have seen that we have left the Studies like this…, more so that the portions can be read when the activity takes place.Before these portions were distributed on Wednesday or Friday so that you would have time to print them. But there were times when there was an excerpt that went with the topic as well, where he would go into detail, gave more light on what was going to be talked about, and then one was limited to what had already been distributed to the brethren. And since that then remains written in the Study already, what is already spoken, well… that is why…Because some people have asked me why the Study has not been placed on the website: it is because it has happened (right?), most of the time, that, either the study is not read (as it happened to us on Friday), and other times it is because God takes us along other lines. And perhaps some excerpts that are touched on there, and… or others are read.And in order not to have to be placing the study and then it is not read, then the brethren are going to be looking out for it: “Where is it that brother Benjamin is reading?”And so, rather, they are focused on what is being read and are listening to; and then they will find the complete Study either in the book that comes out or in the message already written, in the week. So that is why we have left it like this, so that you can have it as it will be spoken in the activity.THE MYSTERY THAT CAUSED SILENCE IN HEAVEN (Ministers Meeting) Dr. William Soto Santiago Saturday, November 15, 2003 Santiago de Chile, ChileAlways, when one speaks of the Son of Man, we speak of a prophet in whom God will be manifested. One cannot have the fulfillment of the Coming of the Son of Man, unless the Holy Spirit, Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, has a veil of flesh in whom He is manifested.Notice, Reverend William Branham spoke about this on page 165 of the book of Quotations, paragraph 1471, it says:21471 - “[212] That wasn’t Elijah; That was the Spirit of God on Elijah; Elijah was just a man. Now, we’ve had Elijahs, and Elijahs’ coats, and Elijahs’ mantles, and Elijahs’ everything. But the Elijah of this day is the Lord Jesus Christ…”[JBP] And he writes there: [WSS] «Elijah = is Jesus Christ».Above he wrote: [WSS] «The Son of Man in a prophet».«Elijah = is Jesus Christ».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on page 44, it says in paragraph 378, of the book of Quotations:3 378 - “8 And we can look towards Heaven and see the Son of man rising from His Throne to start towards the earth for the Rapture of His Church, and know that His precious feet won’t touch this sinful earth at that time ([JBP] See, like when he said that they expected the glorified body of Jesus, and God sent them His Spirit, His Holy Spirit4); for as Rebekah rode the camel and jumped off the camel, right between the house of Abraham, out in the field she met her bride. O God, and the Church will meet our Bride in the air.”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Jesus does not set His Feet on Earth».And above he writes: [WSS] «The Coming of the Son of Man».Notice, and here it says: [WBM] “But the Elijah of this day is the Lord Jesus Christ.”[JBP] But then how so? Because it is His Spirit, the Spirit that was also in the different prophets; as we are told by the apostle Peter: “The Spirit of Christ which was in them.”5[“THE MYSTERY THAT CAUSED SILENCE IN HEAVEN”][WSS] 1471 - “[212] He is to come according to Matthew… according to Luke, chapter 17, verse 30, says that the Son of man is to reveal Himself among His people. Not a man, God! But it’ll come through a prophet. Now, He never had two major prophets at the same time…”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on page 127 of the book of Quotations,6 he tells us on paragraph 1127: 1127 - “143 And we find out here that God has always had skin on Him. When Moses seen Him, He had skin on Him, look like a Man. When God was behind the curtains, He had skin on Him. And God, tonight, in His Church, is veiled in His Church with skin on It. He is still the same God, tonight. [...][147] ‘As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be at the Coming of the Son of man.’ Deity veiled again in human flesh! Now, remember, Jesus didn’t say, ‘When the Son of God is being revealed.’ In Luke the 17th chapter, I believe, and about the 20th, 21st verse, somewhere along there, He said, ‘And when the Son of man is being revealed.’ The Son of man, back in—in—in the Church again, revealed in human beings; not Son of God, but the Son of man again, back in His Church again, in the last days.”[JBP] And above he writes: [WSS] «The Coming of the Son of Man = Deity veiled in flesh».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on page 142, of this same book of Quotations,7 he says, in paragraph 1274: 1274 - “184 Now, when Jesus came to the earth, He came in the name of three Sons: Son of man, which is a prophet; Son of God; and Son of David.185 Now, He lived here on earth. He never did say He was the Son of God. He said, ‘I’m the Son of man.’ Jehovah Himself called Ezekiel and the prophets, ‘Son of man.’ Because, He had to come to fulfill Scripture as a prophet. Moses said, ‘The Lord your God shall raise up a Prophet likened unto me.’ That’s the reason He could not be the Son of God there, because He was the Son of man. He… ‘The Word came to the prophets.’ And He was the Word in Its fullness. Son of man, the—the major prophet… Not the major prophet, but the God- Prophet, ‘The fullness of the Godhead bodily was in Him.’ Therefore, He was the Son of man.186_ Now, for two thousand years_ [WSS] «for 2000 years»_, He’s been known to us as Son of God, Spirit.”_ ([JBP] See? It is the Spirit of God).187 And in the Millennium, He’ll be Son of David, upon the Throne ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «Millennium: the Throne»_. We all know that, who believe the Scriptures._ 188 Now, Jesus said, just at the end of this church age that we’re living in, that ‘The Son of man would be revealed again in the same manner it was, as it was at Sodom.’”[JBP] And there he writes, that is, above he writes: [WSS] «Son of Man, Son of God, Son of David».THE BATTLE IN THE SPIRITUAL FIELD (Ministers Meeting) Dr. William Soto Santiago Wednesday, May 19, 2004 Torreon, Coahuila MexicoHere we can see the clear picture of what the Coming of the Son of Man in His Kingdom will look like and what it will be like.8Also in Matthew, chapter 24, verse 31, it says:“And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect…”Therefore, at the Coming of the Son of Man, Moses and Elijah will be present, that is, the ministries of Moses and Elijah calling and gathering the elect of God, the elect of the Church, the last elect and the elect of the Hebrew people, which are 144,000 Hebrews.There in chapter 17 of Matthew, the order of the Coming of the Son of Man with His Angels for the end time, for the Last Day, was shown.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] On page 42 of the book of Quotations,9 in paragraph 345, it tells us: 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.”[JBP] Above he writes: [WSS] «Adoption».And he writes: [WSS] «Moses and Elijah = the Coming of the Kingdom». 345 - “[229] 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 there on the side he writes: [WSS] «The Coming of the Son of Man glorified».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And in the message “BLASPHEMOUS NAMES,”10 he says to us on page 25:163 That’s exactly what God did on Mount Transfiguration. Notice, there appeared Moses and Elijah. And Peter, all excited; the supernatural was done. Peter got excited, said, “Let’s build three tabernacles, one for You, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.”164 While he was yet speaking, God shut him up. He said, “This is My beloved Son in Whom I am well pleased. Hear ye Him.” See? God put Hisself in the background, and, “This is My Son.”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Moses and Elijah in the adoption».165 Moses represented the law. The prophets represented His justice. We could not live by His law. We could not live by His justice. I don’t ask justice. I want mercy, not justice. I can’t keep His law, and I can’t meet His justice. But I need His mercy.[JBP] And above he writes: [WSS] «Moses [Law] and Elijah [Justice] were found in the Son».[165] And God said the law and justice has been met in Him. “He’s My beloved Son. Hear ye Him. That’s Him. That’s the One.”166 Now, in the Old Testament when that son was adopted, or placed into the family, his name was just as good on the check as his daddy’s was ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «the name of the adopted son». Yes, sir. They didn’t have a… They had a ring, them days, a—a sign, signet. And they’d… [Brother Branham makes a spitting sound and hits the pulpit—Ed.] Spit on it, place it, there was a signet.[JBP] In other words, if it was on the ring, he would spit on it [Rev. Jose B. Perez demonstrates how they spit on the ring and hits the pulpit with his fist. –Ed.], and then they would seal it.[166] …there was a signet. That was just as… He wore his daddy’s ring, his signet. And that was just as good as his daddy’s.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «The Seal».[WSS] «Rev. 7:2, 14:1, 2:17, 3:12».[JBP] That is the Angel (Revelation 7) with the Seal of the living God.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on page 41 of this same message “BLASPHEMOUS NAMES,” he says [P. 35]:282 …watch, He was overshadowed, and He was transfigured there before them, and His raiment shined like the sun. There He was, Jesus, God placing His Own Son. See? And then up come Moses. Then up come Elijah. And Peter said, “You know, it’s—it’s a good thing to be here.” See how man gets? Yeah. Oh, the supernatural done! Said, “Let us build three tabernacles. Let’s build one for Moses, and one for Elijah, and one for You.”283 And before he got through speaking, God just shut the whole thing up, said, “This is My beloved Son. In all these things that I required of Moses, and put the law out by Moses; the justice by the prophets; He has met it all. Hear ye Him. I’ll step out of the picture now. Just hear Him. Just hear Him.” Oh, my! What a beautiful thing![JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Hear ye him».And he also writes there: [WSS] «The Law [Moses] and the prophets [Elijah] were found in Jesus, the adopted Son».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Our brother William continues saying here [“THE BATTLE IN THE SPIRITUAL FIELD”]:[WSS] Therefore, we have to be with our spiritual eyes wide open, so that we do not overlook the whole Divine Program relevant to this end time; because the entire Divine Program that was promised for this end time is the promised Word, that has to be vindicated, that has to be quickened, that is, that has to be fulfilled, has to become a reality for and in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] On page 120 of the book of Quotations,11 on paragraph 1065, he says: 1065 - “[253] For why? He was the a-vindicated Light of that day. See?254 But there’s more Word to be a-vindicated. He’s got to vindicate more Word. And when the last Word is vindicated, is vindicated, rather, then death is swallowed up in victory, and the dead in Christ shall rise, the Millennium will set in…”[JBP] And he writes there: [WSS] «Jesus, Elijah, Moses».[JBP] At the bottom here: above it, there he writes that, where the paragraph begins. And here, where it continues, at the top, he writes: [WSS] «The Resurrection».And he also writes: [WSS] «When the last Word is vindicated».«The Lord, with Elijah and Moses, will be vindicated in the 2nd Coming».[JBP] Look when He will be vindicated.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on page 128, paragraph 1141, it says [Quotations]:12 1141 - “[115] The Word made flesh is the Light of the age; when you see It, and the Bible said so.”[JBP] And there he writes: [WSS] «The Light is the Word made flesh».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And also on 124, paragraph 1103, there he says [Quotations]:13 1103 - “116 But in the last days He is supposed to return again, but a Pillar of Fire is supposed to come back again to manifest the Son of man, see, to show the Word, the Light. The traditions, has been, will be wiped away. There is nothing going to bother It; it’s going to be done, anyhow. God just tear them denominations and traditions down.What kind of a Spirit will He do with it? Like He did in the first place. Look what He done in the days of Elijah, in the days of John. ‘Don’t you think to say within yourself you’ ‘have Abraham to the father,’ ’cause God is able of these stones to rise children to Abraham.’ See? Don’t you think, ‘Cause, I belong to this and I belong to that.’ See? God tearing off the veil, see, to show Who He is.”[JBP] And there he writes (to the side): [WSS] «The Pillar of Fire to manifest the Son of Man today».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Brother William continues to say here in this message [“THE BATTLE IN THE SPIRITUAL FIELD”]:[WSS] That is the Word that the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Church-Bride of Jesus Christ, has been waiting for two thousand years approximately, for it to be manifested, for it to be vindicated, for that promise given by God for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ and then for the Hebrew people to become a reality.And that will be the Light of the Last Day; because the Light for each age is the promised Word of God for each age made a reality, being fulfilled to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] In the message “RECOGNIZING YOUR DAY AND ITS MESSAGE,”14 Reverend William Branham tells us, on page 9 and 10, look at what he speaks to us here; he says:38 Now, the seventh angel’s Message is to open the mystery of the Seals, calling the eleventh-hour Gentile workers to receive the same pay that the first hour workers got. See?Now, Jesus taught it. He said there was some peoples went into the harvest. They were hired. And when they did, of early morning, they received a—a—a time, a penny for the day. And then at noontime, someone else come in and went to work. And then at the eleventh hour, that’s the last hour of the day, that someone come in and received the same kind of pay that they did at the first hour of the day; last hour.39 It’s so perfectly, how the first-hour messengers with the Word…[JBP] And there he draws the ages and the Cornerstone. And below, in [WBM] “The first-hour messengers with the Word,” an arrow towards the bottom part.[39] …with the Word, with the Gospel, with the Truth, they came in at the Day of Pentecost…[JBP] That apostolic part there, of the apostles.[39] Then there was a dark age that blocked them out. Then at the middle of the day, Luther, and Wesley, and them, came in. And then there is to be an evening-time Message, and to receive the same thing that they did at the beginning. The evening-time Message is to restore back again, to bring back that same thing again.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «God in flesh – Restoration».40_ And remember the vision of last week, that when the Bride came to be… preview of it. There came up the little Bride, lovely, in the vision. And I, not thinking about it; just setting there watching outside. And there come the Bride. I heard a Voice by the side of me, said, “Here is a preview of the Bride.”_ ([JBP] And he writes): [WSS] «the 2nd Bride» And She came by. I noticed Her, the way She was, very lovely, pretty, young.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «The Bride that was born on the Day of Pentecost was a Jewish Bride».[JBP] And he draws a Cornerstone and the ages.[40] She was walking just the step as She could, not a march; just in the stride of a—a woman, how they walk gracefully, ladylike. That’s the way She was walking, coming to my left on this side ([JBP] That is, on this side [Rev. Jose B. Perez points to his left side. –Ed.]), and She went out of my sight.[JBP] If they passed and went out of his sight, it is because they are passing by like this and he is looking that way. He doesn’t say that “they passed by, and I turned and looked at them,” but that they passed by on the left side and went out of his sight.41 Then He turned me to the right side [Rev. Jose B. Perez points to his right side. –Ed.], and He showed me each church as they’ve come up out of the ages. And, oh, how vulgar! And the last one was this last-day church age [WSS] «Pentecostals, Laodicea», which was led by a witch.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «a witch guides Laodicea. Rev. 13: ».[JBP] And here he writes: [WSS] «The Bride — left».«Laodicea: right».And at the top he writes: [WSS] «The Vision of the Bride».«The 1st Bride — the one of the Day of Pentecost».«The churches — the ages».«The 2nd Bride — the one of the Year of Pentecost».[JBP] Now look at something very beautiful, because it was towards the left side that he saw the Pillar of Fire resting over that little wooden room. And that is something very important that brother Branham is telling us here in this portion; and what will be happening in the fulfillment of the Tent Vision.[41]_ And they were so immorally dressed_ ([JBP] he is talking about that one of the right, which is the Church, the last one), so filthy-looking! And they were marching to the time of twist and rock-and-roll. And those women throwing themselves just in twists, with holding just paper, gray, hypocritical, the wor-… The gray is between a white and a black, which is a deceiving color. Gray is neither white nor black. It’s a deceiving color. And gray-looking paper, holding in front of them, with lace-like hula skirts holding in front of them, and completely nude from their waist up. And was marching to the… or time, or twisting, and carrying on with that music, walking up. And said, “That is the church.”42 And when it passed by me, my heart like to fainted. I thought, “If that’s what is trying to be presented to Christ, as a Bride? Of all the efforts and things that man has put forth, to try to bring forth a Bride for Christ; and a vulgar, dirty, filthy-looking prostitute like that to be the Bride of Christ?” It made me sick at my heart.43 And as she passed, after she… Coming before where we was standing, she was holding the paper in front of her, twisting, and rocking, and moving herself one side and then the other side, as she went, like the modern dances they have of this day, using herself in an immoral act as she was marching on.44 I’m not responsible for these things. I can only say what I seen. And God as my Judge, but that was the church from U.S.A. ([JBP] And he writes): [WSS] «USA».45 Now, as she passed by, the whole back part had no covering at all. And then as she passed by, I felt faint and sickly.46 Then He said, “The Bride will come into preview again.” And here the Bride came behind her, the very same-looking Bride that passed at the beginning. Then my heart jumped for joy, to know that there will be a Bride. And She will be made of the same thing, and clothed in the same thing, that the One was at the beginning. She is to be called.And I know that is the Truth. If that isn’t true, then every vision that I’ve had in the back has been wrong. And anyone knows, that, not one thing has He ever told us but what was the Truth. It come to pass, just…47 And can you see, then, the filthiness of the modern church, calling herself a “church”?[JBP] And he writes there to the side: [WSS] «The Bride passes 2 times:The 1st time — the one of the Day of Pentecost.The 2nd time — the one of the Year of Pentecost». WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL (Ministers Meeting) Dr. William Soto Santiago Saturday, July 10, 2004 Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, MexicoWhen you see the Hebrews literally (that is, the group of Hebrews or Hebrews, and the group of the Hebrew religion seeking the Message), open your eyes, because the group of the 144,000 Hebrews may be getting quite close.From one moment to another that movement of the Hebrews will emerge, see? Because the Seventh Seal is like a rocket that explodes (it goes up, explodes), and then it explodes further up (another explosion), and five stars come out; one of those stars explodes, and five more stars come out; and one of those five stars explodes, and five more stars come out. See? That is how the Seventh Seal is, our brother Branham says.[JBP] And we read in the book of Quotations, in that place, where he writes: [WSS] «the explosion of the Bride», then he writes: [WSS] «the foolish», and then he writes: [WSS] «the 144,000».15[WSS] So in each explosion something great from God is carried out.What has to explode of the Divine Program under the Seventh Seal has not yet exploded for them; because the Seventh Seal, like the Seventh Trumpet, is one thing: The Coming of the Lord.And the Seventh Trumpet is: Moses and Elijah.And the Seventh Seal is: The Second Coming of Christ; He comes with His Angels.That is why the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ foreran the Second Coming of Christ with Moses and Elijah. That is why he speaks of Jesus coming, and he speaks of Elijah and Moses coming as well; because the Son of Man comes with His Angels.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] See in paragraph 1143, on page 128 of the book of Quotations:16 1143 - “[155] Under the Seventh Trumpet, is to Israel the same as the Seventh Seal was to the Church.”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «7th Trumpet, 7th Seal».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on the next page, 129, it says at the beginning [Quotations]:17 1150 - “[270] Now, as soon as this Church (the Bride) is drawed together, She is taken up; and that mystery of the Seventh Seal, or the Seventh Seal, the mystery of going. And the Jews is called by the mystery of the Seventh Trumpet, which is two prophets, Elijah and Moses…”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Moses and Elijah = the mystery of the 7th Trumpet».And above, right there, he writes: [WSS] «The Coming of the Lord = The mystery of the 7th Seal».[JBP] In other words, the Coming of the Lord is the Seventh Seal.In other words, what the Seventh Seal is for the Church, which is the Coming of the Lord, is the Seventh Trumpet (Moses and Elijah) for the Hebrews. Or Moses and Elijah for the Hebrews is the Seventh Trumpet. There are both sides, that is, speaking it both ways.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He continues saying in this same message [“WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL”]:[WSS] Now, we have seen that when that Third Pull fulfills the Tent Vision, the messenger that God will have for this end time will already be adopted there ([JBP] that is, the instrument that God will be using in the Third Pull, in the fulfillment of the Tent Vision, that instrument will be adopted); and then —through him— God will be fulfilling all the things that were seen in the Tent Vision.Now, see who these miracles seen in the Tent Vision correspond to; because we cannot move away from the Scripture and the messages of the Reverend William Marrion Branham.[JBP] We cannot move away from the Scripture nor from the messages of Reverend William Branham. All that was spoken is what was already prophesied that the Coming of the Son of Man with His Angels would be.He goes on to say, a little further on, in this same message:[WSS] (...) What is the mystery of the Seventh Trumpet? Elijah and Moses, the Two Anointed Ones.What is the mystery of the Seventh Seal? Jesus, the Coming of the Lord.Now, in the mystery of the Seventh Trumpet, which is Moses and Elijah…Now, how will Moses and Elijah come? There is the mystery.I am going to read something to you. And as it will be in this reading, it will be with Elijah, it will be with Moses and it will be with Jesus, in the Coming of the Son of Man with His Angels.He says page 399 [p. 472 in Eng.], question number 11, it says [The Seals]:“10. Is the Elijah, who comes to preach to the Jews (oh, yes), the real man who lived on earth, or will he be spirit of Elijah in some other man?”Further down he says:“[148] I’m inclined to believe that it will be anointed men, of their spirit.”[JBP] And he in the book of The Seals (in this book, on that page 399), he writes in that question:[WSS] «The 5th Elijah = a man of this time».[JBP] And on 408 of the book of The Seals as well, he says… It is that quote; we are going to leave it ready here to read it; because here he (brother William) mentions it, that question, as well. Let’s continue here. Our brother William says [“WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL”]:[WSS] In other words, he was not waiting for Elijah to come literally, the first Elijah, to have the ministry in the midst of the Hebrew people; he already had it. It is now the ministerial spirit of Elijah, the Holy Spirit anointing another man with that ministerial spirit.[JBP] In other words, he concluded his work on the first occasion that Elijah’s ministry came, and he left; and now he comes in another man.Brother William continues reading the answer to question number 11:[WSS] Says:“[148] I’m inclined to believe that it will be anointed men, of their spirit. Because, see, he says, ‘Does not…on Elisha? Does not the spirit of Elijah rest on Elisha?’ See, ‘the spirit of Elijah.’ And he done just like Elijah did…” See?(...) So, we can clearly see this, also notice what it will be… he was asked on page 408 [p. 482 in Eng.] of the book of The Seals, question number 17, he says:“17. Brother Branham, is the seventh angel, with the spirit of Elijah, the same man as the Elijah sent to the hundred and forty-four thousand Jews during the three and a half years after the Rapture? Some of us are mixed up, in this.”[JBP] And he answers:[WSS] “204 No. He isn’t the same.”If he is not the same, then we should not be waiting for brother Branham to come to preach to the Hebrews; and therefore, the next ministry of Elijah, which is the fifth ministry of Elijah, will not be brother Branham, because it cannot be the seventh angel messenger.[JBP] And there he continues reading the answer:[WSS] “[205] …spirit of Elijah then, coming in the… and to the people there, he will be a Jew, see, for they’re sent to their own people. That’s my revelation.”[JBP] And in the book of The Seals there he writes (in that question, below the question):[WSS] «The 5th Elijah = will be a Jew».[JBP] Remember that the two sticks…, all the mystery of the Coming of the Lord in this end time is there, in what that line of the tribe of Ephraim represents (in other words, it would be Joseph through that line of the tribe of Ephraim) and the tribe of Judah.And by one line comes the Birthright Blessing, which was bestowed upon the sons when Joseph brought them, and was bestowed upon Ephraim there. In other words, Joseph had a double portion there.Now, the Coming of the Lord in His First Coming came through the tribe of Judah. And it is through that line that God has fulfilled the Coming of the Son of Man with His Angels; and in the hand of the prophet, in this end time, those two sticks will be joined.And we had already read that the Birthright Blessing had to be in the Church in order for the prophet to be able to join those two sticks.18[Rev. Jose B. Perez] On page 120 of the book of Quotations it says, in paragraph 1069:19 1069 - “73 Now, notice, Jesus said that would come again. ‘As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man.’ Again the Spirit of God will come upon mortal, human flesh. That Man eat the meat of a calf, drinking the milk from the cow, and eat butter and bread, in human flesh; and Abraham said He was Elohim, God manifested in flesh. Jesus promised that God, before His coming, would be manifested in human flesh again. That’s the Holy Spirit (there is only one God) manifesting Hisself, separating, again, Lot from Abraham.74 Lot wanted the world. God sep-…tore up his world, and separated Abraham and Lot. Lot, being a type, again, of a carnal believer who didn’t think these things were true, he just went on down in Sodom. [...]76 Lot was just a penny, Abraham was a silver dollar, so it taken a hundred Lots to make an Abraham.”[JBP] And at the top he writes: [WSS] «The Coming of the Son of Man = The Spirit of God would come in human flesh».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Our brother William continues saying [“WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL”]:[WSS] There we have enough to understand that under the Third Pull… The Third Pull will reach its culminating part, which will be in the Tent Vision in the fulfillment of the Tent Vision.Now, while brother Branham was preaching The Seals, he says that the Seals and the revelation of the Word and of the Seals, is the Third Pull as well.In other words, the Third Pull, before being fully manifested in the Tent Vision, it will be giving us the revealed Word of the Seventh Seal, and everything else that remains to be made known to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, so that she can receive her adoption…[JBP] See he spoke to us so clearly on that occasion; and always. But that mystery was not open, which is being opened now.[WSS] …so that she can receive her adoption, the transformation of our body, every believer in Christ; and then to have a great blessing on this Earth: to be about 30 or 40 days here on Earth under that great blessing, where the Tent Vision will be fulfilled; and then we will go with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.Therefore, we are living in a very great time, where there are many things promised to be fulfilled under the Third Pull.[JBP] And a little further on in this same message he says:(...) Well, what is in the Third Pull is everything that is in the Church of Jesus Christ after brother Branham departed. All that corresponds to that stage where the Holy Spirit will be in the midst of His Church carrying out the continuation of His Work; because He does not leave His Work because a messenger leaves, He continues with another messenger.[JBP] In other words, because God takes away a messenger, then we have to wait (as many are thinking) for God to bring him back again. And they will come back, we will see all of them in the resurrection in this end time; but while the resurrection takes place, the Work of God continues; and it continues with another instrument, another messenger.[WSS] And the Third Pull “It speaks for itself.”20What does that mean? That it will not even be necessary to say: “That which is happening is the Third Pull,” but people will say: “But what I am seeing is what the brother says will be happening in the Third Pull. And why are we seeing it happening here?”Because that is the Third Pull speaking for itself. In other words, the materialization of the Third Pull will speak for itself. What will be happening will be identified with what is promised; because it will be what has been promised being materialized.Look at this… For example, perhaps the Hebrew people and perhaps the believers of the Hebrew people there, in those days of Jesus and the apostles, afterwards, they did not want to leave Jerusalem, and then they had to leave; and then they did not want to leave the territory of Israel, they did not want to go to the gentiles.But what happened? The Message went to the gentiles, it moved to the house of Cornelius. And then, while they were there… and then it moved to Asia Minor. See? It moved to another people, to the gentiles. And then it moved on from Asia Minor to another people, to France. And then it moved from France… From the first age, the age in Asia with Saint Paul, it moved to France with Irenaeus. And from France it moved to Hungary and part of France as well, with Columba. And then from France and Hungary it moved to Ireland and Scotland.([JBP] There he says) Let’s read it again: from the land of Israel it moved to Asia Minor with Paul; from Asia Minor…[JBP] In other words, he is there… he is there naming all these parts, all these stages, from the apostles with Paul, then Irenaeus, then Martin, Columba, Luther, Wesley and brother Branham, and the places… Here he even writes the dates and everything of the different ages, and how long they lasted; and how long the time of the Age of the Cornerstone would also last.Now, here he goes back and reads it again to put it in order. He says:[WSS] Let’s read it again: from the land of Israel it moved to Asia Minor with Saint Paul; from Asia Minor it moved to France with Irenaeus; from France it moved to Hungary and part of France with Martin; and from France and Hungary it moved to Ireland and Scotland with Columba; and from Ireland and Scotland it moved to Germany with Luther; and from Germany it moved to England with Wesley; and from England it moved to North America with Reverend William Branham, see?, who was its Messenger.And now… see? It went from one people to another.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Let’s turn to page 148, he says in paragraph 1316 [Quotations]:21 1316 - “169 Now, Jesus came in three names. Son of man, which is a prophet; Son of God, which went through the Church age; then Son of David. But in between the Son of God and Son of David, according to His Own Word, and according to Malachi 4 and many Scriptures, He’s to return back into His Church, in physical form, in the people, in a… in human beings, in the way of being a prophet.” [WSS] «4th Elijah, 5th Elijah, 2nd Moses, 2nd Jesus».[JBP] And at the top he writes: [WSS] «Jesus came in 3 names:Son of Man, Son of God, Son of David».And to the side he draws a Pyramid and the ages.And below he writes: [WSS] «1».There in the center of the Pyramid, of the ages, he writes: [WSS] «2».And in the Cornerstone he writes: [WSS] «3».And also in between the paragraph, where it says: [WBM] “But in between the Son of God and Son of David,” says: [WBM] “But in between the Son,” there he writes, in that part: [WSS] «the Holy Spirit», which was in the ages.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Brother William continues saying [“WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL”]:[WSS] Let’s see what he tells us here: Page 12-A, paragraph 115, he says [Quotations]:22115 - “[280] And you believe that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever, that I’m here to make known His works and His ways.281 I been very reluctant on these things, the fifteen, sixteen years I been on the field. But there’s an hour coming now when something is fixing to take place. The Message will go to another nation, another people.”[JBP] And that is what he is talking about on page 12-A, paragraph 115, there in that paragraph: we had already read what is written there, the things that are written there.23 You can see everything that he wrote there, which is the fulfillment in this end time.Our brother William continues saying here, he says (later I will read that quote):[WSS] So, notice, the Message was not going to stay in North America, the Word, the Sword: it goes from one territory to another territory, as God finishes with one messenger and raises up another. And the Sword of the Word passes on to that other messenger; and the Message passes on to that other messenger and to the people of that other messenger, where God operates the ministry that He places in that messenger.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on page 153 of the book of Quotations,24 paragraph 1363, says: 1363 - “202 But the Bible said! And He promised, ‘In the last days, He would send the Spirit of Elijah, and would call the people, the children of God, back to the original Faith like it was in the beginning, of the Word.’ That Word was confirmed, the Son of man in the last days, the same as it was at Sodom; yesterday, today, and forever.[204] ‘Prophets,’ plural; ‘Christs,’ anointed’s, plural; many different ones, the Methodist, you know, and Baptist, and the Pentecostal, and so forth. See? But there is one genuine Christ Spirit, and that’s the Word made flesh as He promised to do it.”[JBP] In other words, there are many prophets that God has sent from age to age and from dispensation to dispensation, but there is only one Spirit.And he writes (it came unglued a little bit there, but you can understand what it is): [WSS] «Spirit of Christ = the Word made flesh», he writes to the side.Above first he writes: [WSS] «Elijah — the Son of Man».And there he writes: [WSS] «The H.S ([JBP] that is, the Holy Spirit), the Word incarnate, confirmed, quickened, in a man in His Church».[JBP] It is beautiful how he was writing; and in many places it is noticeable that it was on another occasion, because, either it was with another pen and another ink; and as God was showing him, he was placing next to that quote everything that God was opening more and more, of the picture.That is how it is with all the prophets in all times: God does not give them everything at once, but gradually.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He continues saying [“WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL”]:[WSS] We have the trajectory of the territories and the people that the Message, the Word, the Sword has moved through; and it has been from the land of Israel to Asia Minor; from Asia Minor to France; from France to Hungary; and from Hungary and France to Scotland and Ireland; and from Scotland and Ireland to Germany; and from Germany to England; and from England to North America.And from North America, where has the Message, the Word and the Holy Spirit, the Sword of the King gone to? See? It has still remained in the American continent, in the West, to complete His Work.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on page 123 of the book of Quotations*,* he says in paragraph 1096, says:25 1096 - “65 Now notice now as He came, He had to come as Son of man, because the Holy Scripture said that He would, ‘God would raise up a Prophet to them.’ So He could not come calling Himself the Son of God, because it wasn’t that dispensation. He was the Son of man prophesying, to fulfill, and revealing to them all the things that had been done, and typed what He was ([JBP] and he draws a Star of David, andhe writes): [WSS] «types». Then He was on earth as Son of man.66 Look at that Syrophenician woman run to Him, and said, ‘Thou Son of David, have mercy on me!’ He never as much as raised His head. She had no claims on Him as Son of David. She was a Gentile.No more than my daughter has claims on me as husband; or, my wife, as daughter. Yet, she is my daughter and my wife, she is my daughter in the Gospel. But, earthly, she has no rights to call me a— a father. See?Now notice, this Gentile woman had no claims on Him as Son of David. But blind Bartimaeus did, see, he was a Jew. Now, He came as Son of man.67 You have to know these words and these things. Look at Hattie Wright that time, when the Third Pull.”[JBP] Why? Because that is one of the manifestations of the five that God showed brother Branham, where the power of God was partially manifested in him. And He showed him those five occasions; and one of them was that occasion where —by the spoken Word— he gave to her her children, in other words, he gave salvation to her children. Because the Third Pull is the Word being spoken.As he says: [WMB] “The Thunders did not speak in Heaven, it was on Earth.” And if they speak on Earth, well, they must have a place from where those Thunders come from; somebody has to speak them.He continues saying [Quotations]: 1096 - “[67] You remember it. Of all the everything, that woman said the right thing. You’ve got to say that right word, the right thing to God.”[JBP] And he writes at the top, on 1096, so that you have it there, that he writes:[WSS] «Syrophenician — gentile age.Bartimaeus — Jewish age.To say the right thing: Hattie Wright.Son of God, Son of David».[JBP] He continues saying [Quotations]:_ 1096 - “_68 Notice now, He came first as the Prophet, and they crucified Him. His Own crucified Him. He came as the Son of man.69 Then after the Holy Spirit came, He was then the Son of God. God is a Spirit. He was the Holy Spirit, Son of God. He lived through the church ages as Son of God.70 Now, in the Millennium, He’ll be Son of David, sitting upon the Throne of His father, David. He is the Son of David. See?71 Now, and, remember, between the Son of God… In the Laodicea church age, they put Him out. And in Luke, He said He would be revealed again as Son of man, the Prophet, fulfilling the rest of it. See? [...][73] He is revealed in the last days as Son of man, according to Malachi 4, all the rest the prophecies pertaining to this hour.”[JBP] And he writes there: [WSS] «Son of God = the Holy Spirit = in the age.Son of David = in the Millennium».[JBP] And here he writes:[WSS] «Son of David — for the Jews. Son of Man (JBP it is torn off but understandable) — for the gentiles».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Page 82, paragraph 696, look [Quotations]:26 696 - “305 Look where the voices was, the Thunders. Not in Heaven; on earth! The Thunders never uttered from the heavens. They uttered from the earth. [...][306] After It’s all done, completed. Then, these Seven Thunders’ voices is the only thing, that’s stuck to the Book, that’s not revealed. It’s not even written in the Book.307 Oh, my! I wish I could get that, that the people could actually... Don’t fail. Don’t, don’t fail. Please don’t, this time. I’m fixing to leave you.”[JBP] And he writes at the top there:[WSS] «The voices of the Thunders were on the Earth = by a prophet».And he draws a Cornerstone, and an arrow towards where he says: [WBM] “Not in Heaven; on earth;” and he draws the ages as well.[JBP] Let’s continue reading it [Quotations]: 696 - “[307] Don’t fail. You ever listened, listen!308 These Seals are on the backside of the Book.”[JBP] Notice where the Seals were: on the back of the Book. 696 - “[308] ‘And at the time that the seventh angel is sounding, all the mysteries that are written in the Book is completed.’ And immediately the Book, that was open and written within, is closed, ‘The mysteries of God is finished.’ And this is the mysteries of God: the going of the Church, and all these other things. […]314 Now, ‘When he begins to sound, the mystery will be finished.’ Now, note, then it’s time for the Seven Seal voices, of Revelation 10, to be revealed.”[JBP] Look at how tremendous!And he writes: [WSS] «The voices of the 7th Seal».What is the Seventh Seal? The Thunders, the Coming of the Lord.And there he also writes: [WSS] «The Thunders = The Voices of the 7th Seal».[JBP] It was very good that we…, that God has guided us to speak that portion there, because see all that was shown to us there.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Our brother William continues saying, of the message I am reading, so that you remember that it is “WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL”:[WSS] And now, Reverend William Branham always said, “We will ride…”, or “I will ride this trail again, I got to bring a Message.” Look, here it is on page 168, paragraph 1496, it says:271496 - “225 Why, me an old man, suffered all my life, why did He heal me now? I believe I’ll ride this trail again, I got to bring a Message!”[JBP] In other words, if the person is going to think that it is him (as he said there, that it cannot be brother Branham), if the person at that time was going to think that he had to fulfill that which he spoke, then he could not see God move from brother Branham —His Spirit— and move on to the next one: he would be left waiting.And there are still many waiting for brother Branham to come back and fulfill everything he spoke, that he said it was him that was going to fulfill that; but they don’t realize that it is the Spirit of God, of Christ, that was in him. As he said there: [WSS] “He does not stop because He takes His messenger away, the Work of God goes on.”Let’s go for a moment there, to 1496, to see this quote that he read in that message.And he writes there:[WSS] «5th Elijah. The Gospel of the Kingdom. I will ride this trail again. I have to bring a Message of the Year of Jubilee».[JBP] And below he writes: [WSS] «A [new] Message will come = Year of Jubilee [the Gospel of the Kingdom]».And in: [WSS] «A Message will come…» below it he writes: [WSS] «a new dispensational Message».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He continues saying (I will reread it) [“WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL”] :[WSS] And he is speaking in the month of November, on the 28th day of the month of November 1965, and the next month he left. But it was the Spirit of Christ in him ([JBP] look, what we were talking about); the ministerial spirit of Elijah, the Spirit of Christ in him, speaking that he has to ride this ministerial path again.He rides it again, for the fifth time, the ministry of Elijah; the ministry of Moses for the second time; and the ministry of Jesus for the second time.So see here, Elijah rides his ministerial trail, the ministry of Elijah, accompanied on this occasion. On the other occasions he came alone. Although Elijah had his helper Elisha with him, but it was the ministry of Elijah that was ministering.(...) Therefore, these are the ministries promised to be operated by the Holy Spirit in this end time. And under those ministries operated by the Holy Spirit, will be where the great signs and wonders will occur; for Reverend William Marrion Branham says: “The great miracles and great signs, that is for Moses and Elijah.” And if it is for Moses and Elijah, it is not for someone else.Therefore, the only ministries that will be able to bring to fulfillment the Tent Vision, are the ministries of whom? Of Moses and Elijah.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] On page 136, paragraph 1208, it says [Quotations]:28 1208 - “[186] Question 253: Will the Bride—will the Bride before Jesus comes, will She have all power of Holy Ghost to perform miracles, raise dead, and so on as in the latter rain—or is this the latter rain for the hundred and forty-four thousand Jews? Will all ministers have this, are we, or, are we just waiting for the coming? [...]([JBP] The answer to the question was): 197 Now, latter rain, a hundred and forty-four thousand Jews, no, that isn’t...that...they won’t… that’s—that’s when Elijah and Moses… There’s where the miracles take place. The things that the people’s been looking for, the Pentecostals, for miracles, that’s where that’ll take place in that, under them. See, that’s Elijah’s and Moses. [...]198 We’re just to wait on the Coming of the Lord. Just wait; keep your lamps trimmed, all filled full of oil. Pray up every hour, not every day, every hour. Just keep ready; be ready, be sweet, and watching.”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «The miracles with Moses and Elijah».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Let’s continue [“WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL”]:[WSS] (…) Therefore, the only ministries that will be able to bring to fulfillment the Tent Vision are the ministries of whom? Of Moses and Elijah. That is under the Third Pull, and —consequently— under the Tent Vision.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Notice, on page 126 it also tells us, in paragraph 1119 [Quotations]:29 1119 - “[322] God Himself appeared in the form of a human being, to Abraham’s natural seed, before the destruction, and Jesus said it would be the same thing to this royal Seed before the promised Son returns [WSS] «Jesus, Moses and Elijah».”And below he writes: [WSS] «the promised Son».And at the top of the paragraph he writes: [WSS] «Abraham’s seed. The promised Son», he also writes there.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on 1122 of that same page 126 of the book of Quotations,30 says: 1122 -“[68] ‘As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be when at the returning, when the Son of man will be made manifest.’ Not Son of God, now; ‘Son of man be made manifest’! “When He is being revealed, made known to His Church, Son of man will be revealed just before the promised Son.”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Jesus, Moses and Elijah».[JBP] We had not read that one, 1122. 1122 - “69 Abraham had seen God in many different forms, in a Light, and in visions; but here was God in a Man, just before the waited and promised son appeared.70 Jesus said, ‘Before the promised Son returns again, Elohim would make Himself (His Word) manifested in flesh, God!’‘Sirs, we would see Jesus!’71 God manifested the same in all ages, it’s always been, He has hid Hisself in behind human flesh. It’s God in you.”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Brother William continues saying [“WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL”]:[WSS] Therefore, what is in the Third Pull revolves all around the Son of Man with His Angels, revolves all around the Seventh Seal and the Seventh Trumpet. Seventh Seal and Seventh Trumpet.Therefore, no one else will be able to fulfill the Tent Vision, but the Holy Spirit operating the ministries of Moses, Elijah and Jesus. And He will have on Earth His chosen instrument of God since before the foundation of the world.[JBP] Where will God have His instrument to fulfill the Tent Vision? On Earth; where the Thunders are as well.[WSS] For it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth…[JBP] In other words, because he will have the Thunders and that is why they are on Earth.[WSS] …it is not of him that willeth, nor of him that runneth, but of who God has mercy, who has chosen from before the foundation of the world the messengers that He would have in His Church in every age; just as He had chosen the messengers that He would have in the midst of the Hebrew people.Therefore, though many fight to be the instrument that God will use to fulfill the Third Pull and fulfill the Tent Vision, all will fail ([JBP] only one will hit the mark); except the one who has been chosen by God from before the foundation of the world. And that is the Rider, the Holy Spirit, the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, who comes from the West; but comes in His final day manifestation.Therefore, He will have an instrument in whom He will come manifested; and that will be the Word, the Word made flesh. That is on page 256 in the book of The Seals.Therefore, we already have that divine revelation of our topic of this occasion, which has been: “WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL.”[JBP] Now look where he tells us who will be the one who will fulfill the Third Pull, and he quotes to us Seals 256:31 [WMB] “But when our Lord appears here on earth, He’ll be riding on a snow-white horse. And He’ll be completely, fully, the Emmanuel, the Word of God incarnate in a Man.”[WSS] I believe that with what we have heard, we have enough to know that we are well based.There are things that cannot yet be spoken, so that the enemy of God does not imitate them; because brother Branham says that the devil is an imitator ([JBP] that is where one identifies the enemy: when you see him imitating the real thing too); and he tries to know what God is going to do, for the devil to do it first, pervert what God is going to do, pervert all that, so that when what God has promised comes, when God does what He has promised, people will say: “Look, that is the same thing these other people were doing.”[JBP] In other words, many may say: “But I was doing that too, I was doing it a long time ago; I was doing that too for years.” Well, he is positioning himself exactly as an imitator.[WSS] See? When Jesus came, the people said: “Theudas and Judas also came, and many people followed them, and they died and everything was destroyed.” But Gamaliel said: “If this is the same it will disappear, but if it is not the same… If this is God, we have to be careful: that we are not resisting God; because if this is of God, we will not be able to stop it, we will not be able to destroy it.”[JBP] And in this end time, they are not going to be able to stop God’s elect from being adopted, they are not going to stop the resurrection from happening, they are not going to stop us from being transformed, they are not going to stop us from being 30 to 40 days here, they are not going to stop the rapture either; because the Work that God is doing is the fulfillment of the prophecies and promises that He said in His Word.And every Word will be fulfilled; it was fulfilled, it is being fulfilled and the one yet to be fulfilled will also be fulfilled.In other words, as Gamaliel said there (very wise of him): “If it be of God, ye cannot overthrow it.”32And this thing that is happening, in the midst of God’s people in this end time, it is of God, and no one is going to stop it!He goes on to say [“WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL”]:[WSS] So we have to be careful ([JBP] he was speaking as if Gamaliel was speaking) that we do not find ourselves resisting God (in other words, waging war against God). Why? Because they would find themselves fighting against God; against the same God that they say they serve, they would find themselves fighting ([JBP] that is, against the same God that they say they are believing and that they are serving).Because all those who were persecuting Christ in His Church, have been found as persecutors before God: who have fought against Christ and His Church.And they have a tremendous problem if when they were alive they did not repent; as Paul did (Saul); he repented and then lamented saying: “I persecuted the Lord’s Church; I am not worthy, I am not worthy.” But Christ had predestined him to be the apostle to the gentiles of that time.[JBP] Further on in this same message he says:[WSS] (...) There are many things, well, that cannot be talked about. But remember, for that, whenever God is going to bring a revival… Let’s read that, because that is a great blessing that is promised there.[JBP] Let’s look for the quote to have it here as well: Page 26, paragraph 218:33“218 - “32 And so we, tonight, want to think on that. And remember, that, in the midst of all this cry, God cannot send a revival till He’s got men in shape to take it…33 And before we can have this revival, God has to call out and train men, God-trained men, to carry this Message.”[JBP] And he writes there (in the quote), he writes: [WSS] «A man for a revival».[JBP] Our brother William continues to say here [“WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL”]:[WSS] Therefore, before we get to the full fulfillment of the Tent Vision, God has to be training a man, and He has to be giving him a Message; and he has to be taking that Message which is going to produce that revival.Also… And then the question that brother Branham asked: “Will there be another revival?” There will be another revival because God will be training a man to send that revival.[JBP] And further on in that same message, he says:[WSS] (...) So, one thing is the spiritual adoption, which is the baptism of the Holy Spirit, where we obtain the new birth and we are adopted, we receive the heavenly body and we are already adopted.But that is the spiritual adoption; but we lack the physical adoption.And just as He adopts us spiritually, He will adopt us physically as well: He will give us a new and glorified body, and then we will be adopted, we will have received the redemption of our body.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now, let’s read that quote there (which I saw there), on page 125, paragraph 1110 [Quotations]:34 1110 - “[171] Moses was that living Word to the people, veiled by the Pillar of Fire, speaking what was to be veiled later behind badger skins. See?[172] Moses had the Word. They were written by God, nobody could interpret Them, Moses had to interpret Them, first.”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Moses interpreted the Word written on the tablets first».[JBP] And to the side he also writes: [WSS] «The Pillar of Fire».I repeat: [WSS] «Moses interpreted the Word written on the tablets first».And he also writes: [WSS] «Moses = the veiled Word».[WSS] «Living, made flesh, fulfilled in flesh to fulfill the divine promises».[JBP] He continues saying [Quotations]: _1110 - “_[172] That’s the reason he veiled his face, ’cause he… Do you see It? See?Here It is. [Brother Branham picks up his Bible—Ed.] We could pick It, pack It up, and everything else there, but It’s got to be revealed. In order to reveal, Moses had to become God to the people. [...][175] Moses was the living Word veiled then. The people saw that Pillar of Fire, said, ‘Now we are satisfied.’ See? ‘Let Moses speak.’ See? ‘Don’t let God speak, lest we die.’ Moses walked right into that Pillar of Fire.”[JBP] And he writes there: [WSS] «For the 1st dispensation = Moses(for the) 2nd dispensation = Jesus».«Moses speaks = adopted».«The 3rd dispensation = ??» (and some question marks).[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And let me see if I can find… it is where he reads from “RECOGNIZING YOUR DAY AND ITS MESSAGE,” and he places the different names where the ministry of Elijah was; and in the part of the fifth Elijah, there he also puts it in the form of a question; and that caught my attention. Look, here it is:[WSS] «1. Moses2. Jesus3. ??».And he also drew two question marks in that part 3. The same thing he did here in the book of Quotations.[JBP] And when he goes to the Elijahs, he writes:[WSS] «1. Elijah the Tishbite2. Elisha3. John the Baptist4. W.M.B.5. ??».[JBP] And he also leaves two question marks with space in between, and there he leaves it without writing anything, he left it blank.Later we can read exactly that portion there, of “RECOGNIZING YOUR DAY AND ITS MESSAGE,” which was where he wrote there next to that part of what we are reading here in the book of Quotations (that he placed Moses, Jesus; and in the third dispensation, there he left it blank with question marks).And since there were things that he had to keep and reserve for himself, as on several occasions he would say: [WSS] “I will have to keep this”; and he also said that there are things that the messengers have to keep for themselves or that are for them. Brother Branham also said that, and also our brother William.And the same thing brother Branham was saying when he saw there, in the little room, what he saw; and all that, he said: [WMB] “What he told me there I will have to keep it with me”; and in another place he says, [WMB] “that shall be in my heart”; and he says, [WMB] “My hand upon the Bible,” and he says, [WMB] “A human being in this world will never know it.”35Because if he revealed all that mystery on that occasion, it would cause the enemy to do much harm and also to imitate; so that when the right thing came, the true thing, then they would say: “This is another one.”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] He continues saying [“WHAT THERE IS IN THE THIRD PULL”]:[WSS] (...) For the full fulfillment of the Tent Vision the instrument that Christ has for that Third Pull in the fulfillment of the Tent Vision will be adopted.But before that, well, he has to be working in the Work of the Lord; and he has to be being trained, prepared to be adopted, and then to have the culminating part of his ministry, and Christ has to have the culminating part of His Work in His Church.And he will bring the resurrection of the dead in Christ and transform all of us who live.[JBP] Notice, the culminating part of that ministry is for the blessing of God’s elect in this end time; because the culminating part of that ministry is to fulfill, later, at the end of that culminating part, the resurrection and our transformation.Christ, when He rises from the Throne of the Father, takes the Title Deed and opens it in Heaven, and does His Claiming Work: He will claim all those He has redeemed; He will claim them, will resurrect them in glorified bodies, and will transform us.All of this is in the Claiming Work. Therefore, all of this could not be done in the past ages.It is in this dispensational interlace, where all this is going to happen. But He is training a Church, He is training a Messenger; He is training us, He is training the ministers.And in this training we are working in His Work in this end time; and we are going to be adopted. And then what God is going to do will be greater than what He is currently doing.But the Work He is doing is great, because He is calling and gathering all His elect; and preparing them; training them to be transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] In the message “THE SERPENT’S SEED,”36 on page 14, he says:82 I want to ask you. Who is this, Job 27… 38, when He said, “Where was you when I laid the foundations of the earth? When the morning stars sang together, and the sons of God shouted for joy?” Who were those sons of God that was shouting for joy? Jesus told them, that, “I had joy with you before the foundation of the world.” We’re not creatures of time. We’re creatures of Eternity.83 “No man can come to Me, except My Father draws him. And all that comes to Me, I’ll give them Eternal Life, and raise him up at the last days ([JBP] and draws a Cornerstone and the ages; and an arrow where he says: [WMB] “No man can come to Me,” and draws an arrow towards the Cornerstone). No one can pluck them from My Father’s hand, Who give them to Me.” How you going to lose?84 See, you’re scared. You’re afraid. You’ll run around here. And that’s one of the best evidences, in the world, you haven’t been nowhere yet. That’s right.[JBP] Notice, and what he writes here: [WSS] «Scared, afraid, runner: evidence that he was not in eternity».[JBP] They go looking here and there… Look, a good teaching, because it shows us that they were not in eternity.[84] How can God ever save you if He…85 How many in this church would raise your hands, and believe that God is infinite? You know what the word infinite means? That’s just perfect. Infinite, you can’t—you can’t explain the word infinite.86 Did you ever take your camera and set it on infinite? Why, it just means from thereafter. All right. There’s no way of focusing it in any more.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Infinite = the 8, perfect».87 Well, that’s what God is. He is infinite. And if He’s infinite, there could not be a beetle, not a fly, not a flea, not a louse, not a chigger, or nothing that ever was on the earth, or ever will be, but what God knowed it before the world was ever formed. There is some conception of infinite.88 Well, then, an infinite God Who saves you here, knowing He is going to lose you next week, or next month, or next year, why, He’s defeating the very purpose. He can’t lose you. “He that heareth My Words, and believeth on Him that sent Me, has everlasting Life and shall never come into the Judgment, but is done passed from death to Life.”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «He who hears. He cannot lose you».[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on page 25, of this same message too, says [“THE SERPENT’S SEED”] [P. 20]: 149 God has hid it from the eyes of the wise and prudent, and promised to reveal it to the sons of God, in the last days…[JBP] And where it says: “and promised,” there he draws a Star of David.[149] …and promised to reveal it to the sons of God, in the last days when the sons of God will be made manifest, when, “God’s sons that rejoiced even before the foundation of the world.” When the great revelation of the Godhead and things would be brought down in the last days, He would manifest these things through the sons of God. You know the Scripture teaches that. And here we are. That’s the reason God is opening these things to us. God is bringing His sons into manifestation. He is going beyond the limitations of any human knowledge, way into the spiritual revelations, and bring It down. Haven’t we been teaching, in this Bible, “Here is to him that has wisdom”? Not what he learned in some seminary; but what he learned on his knees before God, and what pleased God to give him. Sons of God, made manifest![JBP] And he draws a Star of David there.[149] Not what he learned in some seminary; but what he learned on his knees before God, and what pleased God to give him. Sons of God, made manifest![JBP] Romans 8, where the Earth is groaning, is crying out, waiting for the glorious manifestation of the sons and daughters of God.We stand up, and we leave in this topic, that there is so much to talk about!; it is a topic: “THE MYSTERY OF THE COMING OF THE SON OF MAN AT THE LAST DAY,” where the fulfillment of everything is and where the entire Divine Program relevant to this present day is enclosed. “THE MYSTERY OF THE COMING OF THE SON OF MAN AT THE LAST DAY.”We immediately leave with us our beloved brother and friend, Dr. William Soto Santiago.* * *
