BIBLE STUDY #285
SUNDAY, FEBRUARY 26, 2023
*Rev. Jose B. Perez**Rev. Jose B. Perez*That is the one who has the message for all nations in the end time.When Christ takes the Title Deed, opens it in Heaven and brings it to Earth, He will deliver it to that man; and consequently, he will be in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ and he will be growing from faith to faith, from knowledge to knowledge; and when he receives that Title he will be adopted: the transformation will come for him and also for all the elect of that time.Without that Title Deed there will be no adoption. We will be adopted physically with an eternal body and therefore, to the physical eternal life.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now look, in this same message “I HAVE HEARD BUT NOW I SEE,”14 on page 38 it says [P. 31]:206 Dear God, in this solemn moment, it’s going to be a time like this when there really will be a clap of thunder someday, and the Son of God shall descend from the heavens with a shout, with the voice of the Archangel, and the trump of God, the dead in Christ shall rise.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Shout, Voice of Archangel and Trumpet of God». And he draws a Star of David, and the ages and the Cornerstone.[206] And each one of us knows and are aware tonight, Father, that we’re going to have to answer for every word we give, and every word we say. Even the thoughts that’s in our hearts, we’re going to answer for it.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] In the message “REVELATION, CHAPTER FOUR #1,”15 it says on page 33:177 John, called and summonsed by the Lord Jesus, promised by God back there that he would see the coming of the Son of man. Peter, James, and John, and them standing present, when Jesus spoke to them and said, “There’s some standing here will not taste of death until they see the Son of man coming.” He didn’t say “all” was standing there, but “some.” ([JBP] In other words, not all those who were there saw that, but Peter, James and John). And they went, few days after that, and saw the order of the resurrection rehearsed, and the coming of the Lord.178 Elijah represented the dead saints… I mean Moses, and be resurrected. Elijah represented the translated bunch ([JBP] the Pillar of Fire). Remember, Moses was first, and then Elijah. Elijah was to be the messenger of the last day, that with him and his group would come the resurrection…would come the… well, it would come the Rapture, I mean. Moses brought in the resurrection and Elijah brought in the Raptured group. And, there, both of them was represented right there.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «the order of the resurrection». «Moses = brings the resurrection». And he also writes: «Elijah = the raptured». 179 And after a while they noticed then, and they seen, and Peter said, “Let’s build three tabernacles. Let some go under the law ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «1st dispensation», and let some go under Elijah [WSS] «2nd dispensation»**, and let’s go (some of them) this way ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «under Jesus». [WSS] «3rd dispensation».”180 And while they were yet speaking, a Voice spoke and said, “This is My beloved Son, hear ye Him.” And when they looked, they seen Jesus only, everything had wilted into One ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «everything had wilted into One». Oh, and He was the Light, the Truth, the Way, the Door, the Rainbow.181 Oh, tomorrow we got a great lesson, the Lord willing. Tomorrow we take “the judgments”; we take “the sardine stone,” see what it represents, what part it played.[JBP] He writes: [WSS] «sardius = judgment». [Rev. Jose B. Perez] We go a little further on. On page 39 of this message “I HAVE HEARD BUT NOW I SEE,”16 it says:[209] Did we show those magazines and things, a year before it happened? Science is stumped on it. There was the Lord Jesus crowned ([JBP] he is talking about the cloud) and with that white wig on as you see in the Bible, in Revelation 1, and the Daniel, Supreme Judge of Heaven and earth. Right there, when science can’t even see It themselves. And in the observatory, out there in the University of Arizona and down through Mexico, they’re searching, have been for the last two years. And there it was told you, it was “going to happen,” before. ([JBP] In other words, it was going to happen; and he was told in that message “IS THIS SIGN OF THE END, SIR?” he spoke of that).210 How about the Alaskan earthquake? Watch Hollywood fall into the sea! Watch and see if it doesn’t. He’s never told me anything wrong yet, it’ll do it. See? And just watch and see if we’re not living in the closing hours of history. No man knows what hour He’s coming. But I know one thing: I believe, in my present condition, if I’m in my right mind, and if I wasn’t a Christian, I’d sure want to be a real Bible Christian, not a denominational. Don’t rely upon ’cause you’ve shouted. We heard that this morning, proved it by the Word of God; it’s altogether out of the will of God, didn’t do a thing but cause death. Don’t be in the stalk, be in the Life. See? Have faith in God.[JBP] And he draws a Pyramid and the ages. And he writes: [WSS] «stalk», there of that part of the seventh age, and he writes:[WSS] «stalk — Laodicea».«Life — The Age of the Cornerstone».[JBP] That is, in the seventh age, Laodicea, is death; and Life is in the Age of the Cornerstone.And remember that in 2000 he placed us and told us that we were in the seventh stage, in the seventh age. And he who remains in that seventh age, you know that that seventh stage is death.After finishing that stage the next thing that comes is the eighth stage: The Cornerstone; and he who does not ascend to the Cornerstone well, consequently, he is dead, he has no Life. He stayed where he left them: in the seventh stage. But after the seventh stage comes the eighth stage.Whoever stays with that is spiritually dead. There our brother Branham said it: [WMB] “He is in the stalk”; he is not in the Cornerstone, at the top.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Look, in the message: “HOW CAN I OVERCOME?”17; it says [P. 34]:170 “And to those Who look for Christ the second time,” that can overcome the things of this world, by His grace, to come into Him, and shut your eyes to anything else but Him and His Word, “He will appear the second time in Glory.”“For the trumpet of God shall sound, the dead in Christ shall rise; those which are alive and remain shall be changed, in a moment, in a twinkling of an eye, be caught up together, to meet Him in the air.”[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Looking at Christ in the 2nd Coming we can overcome». 171 Whether I’m a spoonful of ashes, or whether I’m living when He comes, it matters me no difference. Amen. Doesn’t matter, because I’ve caught the vision. The veil rolled back, and I see Him. One that could stand, and put His hand upon me, a sinful man, and upon a holy God. And He is my propitiation. He is the Word that I stand for. “In the beginning was the Word.” He’s that Word, and He represents me, There. Amen. And I’ll scream it, as long as I have breath, “He is my Resurrection and my Life.” And all other grounds are sinking sand. All other grounds are sinking sand.172 As He caught them who looked for that, so will He come to each New Testament saint that’s overcome every denominational critic, who has ever overcome all the popular sins of this day, of this age that we live in now, like He did in all the other church ages, those who overcome in that church age. Those who overcome what? “‘I am rich. I have need of nothing. I have…Oh, I’m all this and all this. And I’m the Bride. I’m this. I have need of nothing.’ And don’t know that you are naked, blind.”[JBP] See, those who think: “I am of the Bride.” Those are the ones of Laodicea, who speak that way, who are there still thinking that they are of the Bride; and they don’t know that they are naked and blind. 173 See that deceiving age that I said? It’s not like them that had their heads…[JBP] Remember that in the Dispensation of the Kingdom seven stages are run, and it is the eighth, which is the Age of the Cornerstone, the Eternal Age; and it is and they remained in that seventh age, those who say they are of the Bride, who have no need to hear the Thunders and the Teaching under the Tent; and they do not realize that they are naked and blind. [173] It’s not like them that had their heads cut off, back yonder, to get the white stone; not those who died under martydoms, and burnt with stakes, and things like that; who won the crown. But it’s this deceiving age now, that think that they’re everything. “Well, I’m a church member. I’m a good man. I’m a good woman. I do this. I don’t have to do This*.”174 “But he that overcometh,” he that overcomes all those worldly things of this age…[JBP] And he writes there: [WSS] «He who overcomes the Age of the Laodicea». [174] …he that overcomes all those worldly things of this age what will they do? All will set with Him in His throne; will go in the Rapture when He comes. Oh, my! What do I care, then? What should we care what the world says? What should we care what anybody else says? The great Holy Spirit is among us. His Pillar of Fire leads us and guides us. His Word is vindicated before us. His love is in our heart. The world is in the back. We’ve passed from death unto Life. The world thinks you’re crazy.[JBP] As they say: “Those that have been inventing now, that is a bunch of crazy and fanatics. That which they are doing, that nonsense that they are doing and those things…” But see, those who are receiving that Teaching, look at what it says here:[WSS] «The Throne».«They will sit on the Throne».«They will go in the Rapture».[JBP] In other words, that is for those who went up to the Age of the Cornerstone.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Look, it goes on to say here. I am on page 39 of this message “I HAVE HEARD BUT NOW I SEE” [P. 32]:211 Do you believe that the God that made this promise, that did appear Himself, in the Book of Genesis, and appeared to Abraham and performed that miracle…That same God was made flesh, human flesh, borned of a virgin [WSS] «Mary». That was a theophany there, of course, but then when He come in human flesh and was the same Man, and performing the same things,… Don’t you believe that if God could get a person, that He promised to do according to Malachi 4, a channel that He could speak through, He’ll perform the same thing He said He’d do there? Do you believe that? I believe He would, too.[JBP] He draws a Star of David.212 Do you believe that you could have the faith to touch His garment, His faith to touch the garment? Do you believe present now that something’s speaking to your heart that would tell you that you have faith to touch His garment? You believe you could do that? You reach up and touch with your faith then, not with emotion, just with absolutely pure…[JBP] And that is the Rapturing Faith; that is why we will be able to touch Him, and that is why He will heal us from this temporary and corruptible body; and He will give us that total healing by giving us the eternal and glorified body.[212] …unadulterated faith. Just say, “Lord, I believe. I believe with all my heart. I want You to touch me…[JBP] Now, remember that by faith she touched His garments, that woman; and He felt that virtue came out of Him.18 And by touching the Word: May that virtue go out and adopt them!Because that is what we are longing for. Because in order to be able to see and look at that moment of when the resurrection begins to happen, we have to have both consciousnesses together.And by faith, you believing it, with all your heart, that God is going to give you that virtue of being able to look and see, and see them: that is adoption, that is adopted children of God; and that is what is going to happen with each one of you very soon; because we want to leave here.Because at that moment, at that time, is that everything that was shown in that vision to Reverend William Branham will be happening; where everything that is visible, which was what he was seeing there, which were people entering through the little room and coming out healed, will be happening in those days. But you and I will be ready, we will be prepared; for when they come: already 30 to 40 days, and leave here.When they come in the resurrection it will not be to sit there and listen to the Teaching of the Rapturing Faith. It will be to leave this world “upside down,” as they say, and go in the rapture to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. This is the time of preparation.[“I HAVE HEARD BUT NOW I SEE”] [P. 34][212] I want You to touch me ’cause I—I’ve heard You done it, now I want to see it with my own eyes.”[JBP] When we look in the mirror, there we will see it with our own eyes, when He gives us that eternal and glorified body.213 And I can’t touch you. It takes God to do the touching. Do you believe He will do it? [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.]214 I’m looking right back to my left here. It seems like there’s a channel ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «a channel» ([JBP] and he draws a Star of David), kind of, as I’ve spoke, pulling that way. Being I’ve directed it that way, now it comes in wonderful.[JBP] And it was to his left side where he saw that Pillar of Fire (that was speaking to someone up higher) flying over the little wooden room. In other words, he was seeing the channel through which God was working.Which, on page 376, where he saw that Light, which he said he will not be able to say, what he saw.19[Rev. Jose B. Perez] Now, our brother William continues to say here [“THE MESSAGE FOR ALL NATIONS”]:[WSS] Now, we have seen “THE MESSENGER FOR ALL NATIONS,” and at the same time we have seen who is the messenger to all nations.He will be linked to the Tent Vision; because through him will be Christ, the Mighty Angel that descends from Heaven, and therefore, will be operating those ministries.The Jews, the rabbis, are waiting for Elijah (they are waiting for a man who will be on Earth, in whom God will be operating the ministry of Elijah), and they are waiting for Moses also, and they are waiting for the Messiah; but they are waiting for a man of this Earth, a man in the flesh.Therefore, what was said by Reverend William Branham: “When they see Christ coming for His Church, they will say: ‘This is the one we are waiting for.’”20 Therefore, even if we wish to detach the Church-Bride of Christ from the Hebrews, it is difficult, because they are going to see in the Church-Bride of Christ what they are waiting for; therefore, that messenger, with the Message for all nations, will be linked to the Church-Bride of Christ and the Hebrew people.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And on page 58 of the book, of the message “IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END, SIR?”21 it says:[411] There was them Angels. There was a blast, like a thunder, that shook the whole earth. God knows I tell the truth.412 Just remember, something is fixing to happen. I don’t know what it is. But could it be this? The reason I say this, prepare yourselves! Let us pray, (pray how?) take our position in the army of His believers, and prepare ourselves ([JBP] and there he draws an arrow towards the Cornerstone and he draws the ages below), for it may be later than we’re thinking.413 You know me, and I have never told you a lie, yet, as I know of. And as Samuel said to them, “Have I ever told you anything, in the Name of the Lord, but what come to pass?” Now, I’m telling you now. I don’t know what this is. I can’t say what this is. I don’t know. But, I’m going to tell you Truth. I’m scared. As your brother, I been scared since last Saturday.414 It may be the end time. It may be time for the rainbows to sweep across the sky, and an announcement from the heavens, saying, “Time is no more.” If it is, let’s prepare ourselves, friends, to meet our God.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «Rainbow / Time is no more». [Rev. Jose B. Perez] And right there at the bottom (to not read all that part), it says, [P. 52]:[417] Is it—is it time? Is the minis-… the mystery all finished? Has the sounding all over? [WSS] «of the 7th». Is that really them Seven Thunders, fixing to utter out something, that the little group that is gathered together will receive a Rapturing Faith, to go in the Rapture when He comes? “For we’ll be changed,” as quick as those Angels come, “in a moment, in a twinkling of an eye; and shall be caught up together with those that had sleep, to meet the Lord in the air.”[JBP] See, [WMB] “Will that really be those Seven Thunders preparing to speak something that the little group that has gathered will receive: Rapturing Faith…?”Where is the Rapturing Faith? In the Thunders, in the seven Thunders.[417] My prayer is:418 God, if this be so, I don’t know, Lord. I just was telling the church. If it is so, Lord, prepare our hearts. Make us ready, Lord, for that great hour, that all the history of time, all the prophets and sages has looked for that time. Lord, I don’t know what to say. I’d be afraid to say, “Don’t come, Lord.” I feel ashamed of myself, when I look and see the world in the condition, I’ve done no more than what I’ve done about it. I’m ashamed of myself. If there is a tomorrow, Lord, anoint my heart. Anoint me greater, Father, that I can do everything that I can, to bring others to You.[JBP] And he writes: [WSS] «If there is a tomorrow». For it is in one morning that the rapture will take place.[Rev. Jose B. Perez] On page 168 of the book of Quotations,22 look there where it tells us, paragraph 1500: 1500 - “127 The night was not divided in hours, in the Bible time. It was divided in watches. There was three watches. Now, the first watch started at from nine until twelve. The second watch started from twelve to three. And the third watch of the night was counted from three to six. Now we got three, three three’s, which is a nine, imperfect number. Then we come back to the seven for the Rapture, which will take place, I believe, between six and seven o’clock… or six and nine o’clock, some morning.”[Rev. Jose B. Perez] And…, it says in the message “REVELATION, CHAPTER FOUR #2,”23 page 55 it says:270 All right, and then whosoever will, let him pass the riven veil. Oh, glory be to God! I’m on the other side.[JBP] And he draws a Star of David, he draws two there; and makes a rectangular drawing, a door to the Holy Place, and another door to the Most Holy Place.[270] Hallelujah to His Name! ([JBP] He writes): [WSS] «Veil»*. Oh, my! Whosoever will, let him tear it down, the curtains of his own will, and let God come into his heart. There’s Christ on His judgment seat in the human heart![JBP] And he draws an arrow towards a Cornerstone, and another Star of David.[JBP] Well, let us pause here, because today the message is a bit long, and we want to place it already. All that about the veil…; I had brought these because here it speaks of WHAT IS BEHIND THE VEIL; but we can talk about that in another topic of these days (that has to do with that); and so we can leave here in the topic we have for today: “THE MYSTERY OF THE COMING OF THE LORD IN THE CLOUDS,” which… today is the 26th.Tuesday marks 60 years since the appearance of that mysterious cloud for scientists and for the world; but for God’s elect, we know what that cloud meant back in 1963, on February 28.We stand up (and so we stretch a little), and we leave this topic: “THE MYSTERY OF THE COMING OF THE LORD IN THE CLOUDS.” We thus, immediately leave with us, our dear brother and friend, Dr. William Soto Santiago.* * *
