BIBLE STUDY #445
SUNDAY, SEPTEMBER 8, 2024
THIRD ACTIVITY
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*And all those present here: May God bless you greatly as well and continue to use us in His Work as well, and may He continue to prepare us for great things that God will be carrying out at this end time; and may you be instruments of God for all that great Work that is coming, where the manifestation of God will be worldwide; and it will be for the benefit of the entire human family. May we be instruments in His hands, may we dedicate ourselves to Him in body, spirit and soul.
That is my wish. And I know that the Lord will fulfill it, because it is a promise: that at the end of time there would be a prepared Church that would do great things. And that Church is us. There is a group here and also in the other countries. That group is being prepared for those great exploits.
Let’s search in the book of Revelation, in chapter 11, verse 1 and on, where it says:
Revelation 11:1
1 And there was given me a reed like unto a rod: and the angel stood, saying, Rise, and measure the temple of God, and the altar, and them that worship therein.
2 But the court which is without the temple leave out, and measure it not; for it is given unto the Gentiles: and the holy city shall they tread under foot forty and two months.
3 And I will give power unto my two witnesses, and they shall prophesy a thousand two hundred and threescore days, clothed in sackcloth.
4 These are the two olive trees, and the two candlesticks standing before the God of the earth.
5 And if any man will hurt them, fire proceedeth out of their mouth, and devoureth their enemies: and if any man will hurt them, he must in this manner be killed.
6 These have power to shut heaven, that it rain not in the days of their prophecy: and have power over waters to turn them to blood, and to smite the earth with all plagues, as often as they will.
7 And when they shall have finished their testimony, the beast that ascendeth out of the bottomless pit shall make war against them, and shall overcome them, and kill them.
8 And their dead bodies shall lie in the street of the great city, which spiritually is called Sodom and Egypt, where also our Lord was crucified.
9 And they of the people and kindreds and tongues and nations shall see their dead bodies three days and an half, and shall not suffer their dead bodies to be put in graves.
10 And they that dwell upon the earth shall rejoice over them, and make merry, and shall send gifts one to another; because these two prophets tormented them that dwelt on the earth.
11 And after three days and an half the spirit of life from God entered into them, and they stood upon their feet; and great fear fell upon them which saw them.
12 And they heard a great voice from heaven saying unto them, Come up hither. And they ascended up to heaven in a cloud; and their enemies beheld them.
13 And the same hour was there a great earthquake, and the tenth part of the city fell, and in the earthquake were slain of men seven thousand: and the remnant were affrighted, and gave glory to the God of heaven.
14 The second woe is past; and, behold, the third woe cometh quickly.
15 And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.
16 And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,
17 Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.
18 And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.
19 And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.
THE MINISTRIES OF MOSES AND ELIJAH OPERATING AT THE END OF TIME
Dr. William Soto Santiago Sunday, March 10, 2013 Cayey, Puerto Rico
Scripture: Matthew 16:27-28-17:1-13
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*I WILL NOT LET YOU, GO UNTIL YOU BLESS ME Dr. William Soto Santiago Friday, February 10, 2006 (Second activity) Monterrey, Nuevo Leon, Mexico
And now, this encounter that Jacob had with the Angel when Jacob was returning to his land, will be the experience that the Hebrew people will go through when they meet the Angel, the Angel who had appeared to Jacob and who also appeared to Moses later on.
And now, that Angel, the Angel of God, will manifest Himself on Earth through a prophet, through a man; and when the Hebrew people see that in the midst of the Church of Jesus Christ, they will say: “This is the One we are waiting for,” and they will not let Him go until they receive God’s blessing.
Reverend William Branham, speaking of this event, tells us in the book of The Ages…; and also in the book of The Seals he tells us; but let’s see what he says to us here in the book of The Ages, so that we have a clear picture. On page 30 of the book of The Ages he says:
[JBP] And let’s look for it there; he reads that quote to us from page 30 [p. 36 in Eng.] of the edited book of The Ages; it tells us…, he reads to us from where it starts to say in The Ages…, halfway down the page:
“Now, when is the Gospel returning to the Jews? [WSS] «of the Kingdom» When [the dispensation] ([JBP] the day) of the Gentiles is finished.”
JBP[WSS] «Dispensation of the Law (at the bottom).
Dispensation of Grace (in the middle).
Dispensation of the Kingdom (on the Cornerstone)».
“The Gospel is ready to go back to the Jews. Oh, if I could just tell you something that is about to happen right in this our day [WSS] «the Gentile Day»*. This great thing that is about to happen will carry over to Revelation 11 and pick up those two witnesses, those two prophets, Moses and Elijah, turning the Gospel back to the Jews.”*
JBPWe’re ready for it. Everything is in order. As the Jews brought the message to the Gentiles, even so the Gentiles [WSS] «Moses and Elijah» will take it right back to the Jews, and the Rapture will come.
JBP[WSS] «Moses and Elijah. The Rapture».
And in this one, at the bottom, also there next to that paragraph, he writes: [WSS] «A Message influencing for another Message».
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[WSS] And now, how will the Gospel return to the Jews? Through the Two Olive Trees, through Moses and Elijah, through Revelation, chapter 11, verses 1 to 17; and Malachi, chapter 3 also shows us all of this. All this will be fulfilled at this end time, and thus the Gospel will return to the Hebrew people, where It came from: It came forth on the Day of Pentecost, and It will return to the Hebrew people.
Therefore, that same Angel will be manifested through a prophet in this end time, and the work that will be carried out will not be the work of a man, but the work of the Angel of God who appeared to Jacob.
And now, for this end time we have these promises, which will be fulfilled at this end time.
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*HEAR HIS VOICE Dr. William Soto Santiago Sunday, September 25, 1983 Cordoba, Argentina
Likewise, this Messenger will also be Elijah in his fifth ministry, that is, the ministerial spirit, but he will not be Elijah, but a man of this time.
He will be Moses in his second ministry or in ministerial spirit, but he will not literally be Moses; he will bring the Law of Moses, but in a present-day form; he will bring everything that Moses brought in the Old Testament, the feasts and all that, he will update it and he will carry it out… he will carry out those feasts, he will fulfill them, but in an updated form.
He will fulfill the Coming of the Lord, but he will not be the Lord, but the Lord will fulfill His Coming in him, because He will fulfill it by manifesting Himself through him and speaking through him the Message that He has to speak; but that prophet will be a man like all men of the twentieth century where He fulfills His Coming.
The only thing will be that he will have both consciouses together, and therefore, he will be able to receive the Lord at His Coming, he will be able to receive the little Book from the hand of the Lord, he will be able to eat that Little Book and he will then be able to fulfill God’s Program for this time.
But it will be the Lord doing that Work through him, because the Lord has always used men, and you have to see and understand that whenever God has worked, He has always used a man of the time in which He does that Work. He doesn’t bring, He doesn’t resurrect a prophet of another time to use him at this time; instead, He takes a man of this time and places the prophetic spirit, the ministry of that other man and makes him the prophet of this time.
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[WSS] And now, for this end time we have these promises, which will be fulfilled in this end time.
Notice, also on page 458 and 459 from the book of The Seals, Reverend William Branham said…
JBP173 This time was between the Sixth and Seventh Seal, that He calls these people, spoken of by Jesus in Matthew the 24th chapter and the 31st verse (...). When the trumpet sounds, is the trumpet of the two witnesses of the age of grace for the Jews. One trumpet sound (...). Now notice over here, 31st.
And he shall send forth his angels (not one, see; there’s two of them) with a great sound of a trumpet,… ([JBP] meaning, the ministry of Moses and Elijah).
JBPAnd on the left he writes: [WSS] «The Great Sound of a Trumpet and Moses and Elijah».
174 What is it? When God gets ready to speak, there’s a sound of a trumpet. That’s always His Voice. It’s calling to battle, see. God speaks. These angels will come forth with the sounding of the trumpet.
175 And did you notice, at the last angel’s Message, the trumpet sounds. The first angel’s message, a trumpet sound…
JBP[175] …when He sent it out.
Notice, but when the Seals were announced, they were all in one great, Divine thing, to call out a group of people; there was one trumpet sound, and Seven Seals were broke.
176 Notice, “Gather His elected Jews from the four parts of the heavens.”
JBP[WSS] «The Great Voice of Trumpet».
177 He mentioned the six Seals, as we have seen, but not the Seventh Seal. He has never said nothing in here about the Seventh Seal, nowhere.
178 See, right away, the 32nd verse, turns to parables, of the time of the calling of the elected Jews. Now watch here, see. (...)
180 See, He don’t say nothing about the Seventh Seal here. See? He spoke of the Sixth Seal…
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[WSS] (…) And now, in this passage God shows us through His Holy Spirit through the prophet William Branham, that God is going to deal with the Hebrew people and that the Gospel is going to return to them, and that this is according to Matthew 24, verse 31: sending His Angels, the ministries of Moses and Elijah in the midst of His Church and then in the midst of the Hebrew people.
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*206. Brother Branham, I understand that Elias must be three times. You tell us that he has been twice already, and will come again. Now, will the person, that the spirit of Elias will be upon, also be of the two witnesses of Moses and Elias over there?
335 No. No. He will be a Gentile, see, to the Gentile Church ([JBP] he was speaking of the fourth Elijah). God sends, always, to his own people, see. “He came to His Own; His Own received Him not.” He always sends His, the Message of the hour.
336 When God was dealing with the Jews, there wasn’t any Gentile prophets come. When God is dealing with the Gentiles, there is no Jewish prophets. When God turns back to the Jews, there’ll be no Gentile prophets. See? See what I mean? All right. (...)
337 Now, there will be a carry-over time, of course, one Message carrying to the other one. It has to come right in like this, you see, as I explained that, see; like Paul to the Gentiles, and so forth. All right.
JBP[WSS] «New Message of the Kingdom».
And on page 427 at the bottom, there he writes: [WSS] «The Message going from the gentiles to the Jews».
And on that same page, but going upwards, on the left margin, there he writes:
[WSS] «Saint Paul was the prophet to the gentiles, although he was a Jew».
«The Angel of Jesus, with the spirit and power of Moses and Elijah: from the gentiles, sent to the Jews».
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[WSS] And those who are ordained of God, written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life, will see and receive that prophet in whom will be Christ in the Holy Spirit manifesting Himself, and calling and gathering His elect of the end time. And the Hebrew people will say: “This is the one we were waiting for”; and they will not let him go, they will wish to stay with him.
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*332 The Holy Ghost, alone, is the Revealer of the Divine revelation of Christ, and has been in all ages. Remember, all ages! Who did the Word of the Lord come to? Prophet, alone. That’s right. Is that right? And the prophet had to be vindicated, first. Not ’cause he said he was a prophet; because he was born a prophet, and proved to be a prophet, and everything he said was exactly on the Word and come to pass, then everything else let go. See? It was, the Word of the Lord came only by the Holy Ghost. The Bible said, “The men of old, moved by the Holy Ghost, see, wrote the Word.” [2 Peter 1:21]
333 Look. John the Baptist would never had known Jesus if it hadn’t have been for the Holy Ghost pointing Him out. That right?
334 John the Baptist, that great prophet that come forth, and said, “There is One standing among you right now. And an ordinary Man standing here somewhere, that’s the Lamb of God.” ([JBP] there on the left, on page 44, he writes): [WSS] «the prophet’s vindication». John said, “Then I bore record. I bare record. I saw the Spirit of God, the Holy Ghost, descending from Heaven like a dove, and It went upon Him. And a Voice said, ‘This is My beloved Son in Whom I’m pleased.’”
What was it? The Holy Ghost said, “I’ll point Him out.”
335 That’s the only way you’ll know Him today, only way you’ll get the threefold revelation of God…
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*Now, who was going to reveal that mystery to the Church? The Holy Spirit.
Let’s see where it is in the book of The Seals, he says that he reveals it in a threefold manner. Page 466 [p. 541 in Eng.] says:
248 And now, as certain as I stand in the platform tonight, I had the revelation that revealed. It’s in a threefold manner. That I will speak to you, by God’s help, of a fold of It. And then you… Let’s go over that, first. Here is the revelation, to begin what I want to tell you, what It is. What happens, is that…Those Seven Thunders that he heard thunder, and was forbidden to write; that’s what the mystery is [WSS] «the 2nd Coming», laying behind those Seven consecutive Thunders rolling out.
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*391 Now, now, do you notice? On the opening of this Seventh Seal, it’s also in a threefold mystery. This one, I have…will speak and have spoke, that it is the mystery of the Seven Thunders. The Seven Thunders in Heaven will unfold this mystery. It’ll be right at the Coming of Christ, because Christ said no one knew when He would return.
392 Did you notice, when the Jews asked Him that? Know…When we compared the Scripture here with Matthew 24, with the six Seals, the Seventh Seal was left out. Because, you see, Christ said, “Only God Himself knowed; not even the Angels.” No wonder, It wasn’t even written. You see, they hushed; nothing take place then. Angels don’t know It. Nobody knows when He is coming.
393 But there’ll be a Seven Voices, of these Thunders, that will reveal the great revelation at that time.
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[398] See, Israel gathering in its own homeland. But, you notice, He omitted the revelation of this Seventh Seal.
399 And here, when the Seventh Seal, when He opened It, He also omitted It again, see. So we see that It is a complete mystery, therefore the hour is not yet for the mystery to be known. Therefore, we’re this far, and the rest of It will be known right around about the time that Jesus appears on earth again, for His Bride, or whatever takes place at that time.
JBPJBPAnd notice, in “will be known,” he underlines and circles it.
And to the right of 482, there above that sentence, he draws a Cornerstone.
If Jesus appears on Earth, well, it must be in an instrument, in a veil of flesh.
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*335 That’s the only way you’ll know Him today, only way you’ll get the threefold revelation of God ([JBP] oh, remember that he preached this message after The Seals: June 28, of ‘63) is for the Holy Ghost ([JBP] in other words, the Holy Spirit is the One who would be giving that revelation). And the only way it can ever be, is you’re predestinated to see it. If it don’t, you’ll never see it. If you’re not predestinated to see it, you’ll never see it; ’cause that Light can flash and you’ll go away and make fun of it, and explain it away, by some intellectual conception. When the very God, Himself, manifesting Himself and proving it ([JBP] and he writes on the right): [WSS] «intellectual conception», see, but, if it ain’t upon you to see it, you won’t see it.
336 God never just said, “I’ll choose this one, choose that one,” but He knew by His… Reason He could predestinate, because He’s infinite, and He—He knows every…He’s infinite, so therefore He knowed everything. He knowed the end, and could tell the end from the beginning. He’s God. If He can’t do that, He’s not God. Yes, sir. He’s infinite. All right.
337 John would have never know Him, no, sir, had the Holy Ghost not pointed out. See how God hides His mystery to the high, educated and everything? Look, every one of them people saying… in simplicity reveals it to whom He has predestinated to see it.
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[WSS] Now, that experience that Jacob had with the Angel (whom he held on to), will be the experience that the Hebrew people will have when they see the manifestation of the Angel of God in a man…
[JBP] How will Israel hold on at this end time? In that manifestation, which the Angel, the same One who appeared to Jacob, where He would be manifested.
[WSS] … will be the experience that the Hebrew people will have when they see the manifestation of the Angel of God in a man ,in whom the ministries of Moses and Elijah will be manifested.
When they see that, it will be the same thing that Jacob saw thousands of years ago. And just as Jacob received the blessing of the Angel, likewise, Jacob, the Hebrew people of the end time, will receive the blessing of God when they see that Angel manifested in human flesh in a man of the Last Day. And all the elect will say: “This is the One we were waiting for.”
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[252] This will be the Trumpet; the feast, be rejected, then their Messiah made known.
253 Notice, they’ll know their Messiah when they see Him. He is coming in power, this time, the One they looked for. He is coming in power, for the Gentile Bride, and the Jews are going to recognize Him.
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[290] Notice, watch here, the ministry will be Moses and Elijah, changing and calling Israel from the Jewish traditions, listen, from the Jewish traditions that they had been mixed up in. Being prophets, they’ll believe—they’ll believe him, calling them to the feast of the Atonement, Christ, letting them recognize Christ. They’ll say, “He is coming. He’ll be here.” The Jews will be gathering, things like that.
And then when He comes, say, “Here I am.” See?
“Where’d You get them scars?”
“In the house of My friends.”
291 Now, the same as those two prophets did! Remember, the Gentile Bride is to have a prophet, called Elias, Elijah, that’s to call them out of their traditions, the Bride; just the same as these prophets called Jews out of Judaism, to Christ, the Atonement. And the Gentiles already knows the Atonement, but it’s to call the Bride back to the original Atonement, where these (fifty) sabbaths they… All these seven sabbaths that they have got away from; call them back to the end time.
JBPAnd on the left side he also writes:
[WSS] «The Atonement = Fiftieth Year».
[WSS] «Lev. 25:8-13».
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[WSS] The Hebrew people have been waiting for the Messiah for thousands of years, and the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ has been waiting for the coming of the Messiah for many years as well. Therefore, Jacob’s experience will be repeating itself in Jacob, which is the Hebrew people.
God said of Jacob in chapter 19, verses 1 to 9 something very important here, let’s see. It says chapter 19, verses 4 to 6, it says [Exodus]:
“Ye have seen what I did unto the Egyptians, and how I bare you on eagles’ wings, and brought you unto myself.
Now therefore, if ye will obey my voice indeed, and keep my covenant, then ye shall be a peculiar treasure unto me above all people: for all the earth is mine:
And ye shall be unto me a kingdom of priests, and an holy nation. These are the words which thou shalt speak unto the children of Israel.”
And now, we have the promise here of a Kingdom of Priests that will be manifested in the heavenly Israel, which is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; She will have that Priestly Order, and that is why all the redeemed in Christ (who are born again and therefore belong to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ), form that people, which is Israel or Jacob, which will take hold on at this end time to that Angel who comes from Heaven; in which the Prince Messiah will be manifested in Holy Spirit, calling and gathering the elect of this end time.
That same Angel was the one that manifested Himself through each messenger angel in each stage or age of the Church. But at this end time, Israel as a people, Israel will see that Angel…
[JBP] Now, how did they see, in each age, that Angel being manifested? They saw Him through the instrument, the messenger that God raised at that time.
[WSS] … and they will hold on to that Angel, because the manifestation of God for the Last Day will be in that Angel, to speak, to make known all these things, and for the Hebrew people to receive Him, and for the Hebrew people will receive the blessing that will go from the gentiles to the Hebrews, the Gospel will go from the [gentiles] to the [Hebrews].
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*225 Now watch. He said, “Who do you say I am?” He is asking the Church, His twelve. Out of the millions of that day, He asked twelve, His Church.
In the millions in the days of Noah, He asked eight. Uh-huh. See?
226 And He said, “As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the coming of the Son of man, see, where eight souls were saved.”
227 I don’t say there going to be eight saved now. Now don’t get that all wrong. I never said that. I don’t know how many is be, going to be saved in that, that that’s the… that last moment to—to Rapture that little group. It’ll be a small group, I’ll tell you that. “For strait is the gate…”
JBPFor example, in the time of Jesus, it was difficult to believe that this man was the fulfillment of the Coming of the Messiah. See? Strait is the Gate. The Door is always Christ. And at the end time it would be the same way. And it also says “the way.”
Now, it goes on to say [“CHRIST IS THE MYSTERY OF GOD REVEALED”]:
[227] “…and narrow is the way, but few there’ll be that’ll find it.”
228 But when the great ransomed Body through all ages comes up, then that’s going to be a great throne there! Revelation 7 express it, “Great number, which no man could number,” ([JBP] on the right he writes): [WSS] «the Door is narrow» ([JBP] and on the left he draws a Cornerstone) through all the ages has come up, them that’s walked in the Light of the Bible as far as It was revealed to them. And now we know that Wesley had more Light than Luther did ([JBP] notice, that’s as far as it went). We know Pentecost outshined Wesley. See? Certainly, it does.
229 Because, it just gradually let loose, as it did down through the prophets, and so forth, till it was perfectly made known, “the Godhead bodily in Christ.”
230 And now the Christ in the Church is just being made known. The whole thing is the revelation of God, to take Eve back to her right position again with her Husband. Notice, and God is the Husband of the Church, and the Church is His Bride.
JBP[WSS] «The Husband = God.
The Wife = the Church».
231 Now, Peter, when he called, said, “Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.”
232 Now watch. “Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona*,” says, which means, “son of Jona.” See? “Blessed art thou, for flesh and blood never revealed This to you. You never learned It from some school. But My Father which is in Heaven has revealed It to you.” Notice what He said to him, “Upon this rock…” That’s Peter, the predestinated Seed of God that had received this Light, and given the keys to the Kingdom. “Upon this rock of revelation of Who Jesus Christ is,” He is the full, manifested God* ([JBP] above that he writes): [WSS] «upon this rock = the revelation». “Upon this rock…” Not a Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; and Him being the second Person. “Upon this rock I’ll build My Church, and the gates of hell will never shake It down, never prevail against It.” See? “I’ll build My Church upon this rock,” a revelation of Jesus Christ.
JBPAnd he writes: [WSS] «(And today = of who He is in His revelation today)».
233 Look, Christ in you makes Him the center of Life of the revelation. See? Christ’s Life in you makes Him the center of the revelation. Christ, in the Bible, makes the Bible the complete revelation of Christ. Christ in you makes you the complete revelation of the whole thing, see, what God is trying to do.
234 What is the new Birth then? You’d say, “Well, Brother Branham, what is the new Birth?” It is the revelation of Jesus Christ personally to you. Amen! See? Not you joined a church, you shook a hand, you done something different, you said a creed, you promised to live by a—a code of rules. But Christ, the Bible, He is the Word that was revealed to you. And no matter what anybody says, what takes place, it’s Christ; pastor, priest, whatever it might be. It’s Christ in you, that is the revelation that the Church was built upon.
235 You say, “Well, I’m a Lutheran. I’m a Baptist. I’m Presbyterian.” That don’t mean one, don’t mean [Brother Branham snaps his finger—Ed.] that to God, not a thing, not a snap of your finger.
236 What is it? It’s Christ being revealed, and He is the Word ([JBP] there he writes): [WSS] «the baptism of the Holy Spirit» ([JBP] there on the left; and a Cornerstone). And when the Word is revealed, It expresses Itself.
JBPLook, many there, I don’t know if it’s in this one, or somewhere that it says that many could hear a noise, a thunder (I think it’s in this one), perhaps we’ll read it in a moment; but it didn’t mean anything to them6. Now, it required… that was when He said, “This is my beloved Son.”7 Now that was given by revelation to the elect of God at that time.
And look, here He draws a Cornerstone, which is where he was saying about it would be revealed to you; and that’s [WSS] «the baptism of the Holy Spirit», because it is Christ, the Word.
Now he continues to say [“CHRIST IS THE MYSTERY OF GOD REVEALED”]:
[236] And when the Word is revealed, It expresses Itself. See? That’s God’s purpose for Jesus Christ, was to express Himself, to take His Own laws and live by His laws, con-…and fulfill His law, by death. And Christ, God, died in flesh, in order to condemn sin in the flesh, that He might bring to Himself a glorious Bride, redeemed back, that will believe only in the Word of God; and not swap It, like Eve did, for intellectual conceptions of man. You see it? That’s Christ’s idea. That’s God’s idea. The new Birth reveals this.
237 And if a man says he is born again, and try to place these promises of Christ, in this last days, to some other age, making Him Christ yesterday but not today, then that man or that person has been in a—a delusion by Satan.
JBP[237] And if that man says that he believes That, and it doesn’t manifest itself through him?
238 Jesus said, in Mark 16, “These signs shall follow them that believe; into all the world, and to every age.”
JBP[WSS] «Putting Christ in another past age».
JBP240 The new Birth is Christ, is a revelation. God has revealed to you this great mystery, and that’s a new Birth. Now what are you going to do when you get all that group together? where the revelation is perfectly in harmony, and God expressing it through His Word by the same actions, the same things that He did, making the Word manifest ([JBP] and there he draws a Cornerstone on the left). Oh, if the Church only knew its position! It will, one day. Then, the Rapture will go when it knows what it is.
JBPAnd he writes there: [WSS] «When It recognizes what It is».
And he writes: [WSS] «It will be that way, one day» (he writes really big there).
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*And on the right side above a Cornerstone; he says: “when you get all that group together?,” an arrow towards the Cornerstone and the ages there.
And further down, where it says “If the Church only knew its…,” and there he draws a Cornerstone and the ages, and the arrow toward the Cornerstone.
And at the top he writes: [WSS] «The new birth: when the Church recognizes Its position».
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*245 They said, “Well, I—I’ve got more of a revelation than you, Paul, because, you know, I walked with Him. I went fishing with Him, one day. I heard Him talk. He sat in a boat with me, and actually told me, ‘Let’s go over here and fish in this place, and we’ll get more fish.’ And we did it.” See? See? “We seen Him do things.”
246 But Paul saw Him after He was dead, buried, rose again, and expressed Hisself in the Pillar of Fire that led the children of Israel. Knowing…Paul, being a Jew, would have never called that “Lord” unless he had seen the expression, He was back, the same yesterday and forever. He said, “Paul,” in other words, “I’m the same God today that I was yesterday. Here I am, in the same Light, the Pillar of Fire that Moses talked to, in the burning bush ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «the Pillar of Fire».” No wonder he could separate the law from grace ([JBP] there he writes): [WSS] «the Angel of the Covenant» ([JBP] on the left), over in the Book of Hebrews; he met that same Pillar of Fire. He said, “I am Jesus, Whom you persecute.”
247 And here He is today, in the same manner, by the same Pillar of Fire, expressing Himself and vindicating Himself the same, revealing the mystery of God that’s been hid since the foundation of the world. See it?
248 Paul only knewed Him by—knew Him by revelation. Peter knew Him by revelation.
249 He walked with Him, talked with Him. Therefore, you can set in this Word. Now, I’ve just said that He was the Word. Now, a scholar can sit down and read that Word till he can just tie your mind up in any way, see, if he wants to do it, ’cause he’s smart, brilliant. Get a Catholic priest, or, not so much as that, as a real good, trained theologian in the Bible. Brother, a Baptist, or a Presbyterian, or something, he’ll make you think that you don’t know nothing, see, when it comes to talk. What? See, because that he has knowed Him in the flesh, the Word. [Brother Branham pats his Bible—Ed.]
250 But the only way you’re saved is by know Him by revelation!
JBPIn the back he writes…, there’s a writing over here where he says: [WSS] «The Holy Spirit is the giver of revelation».
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[WSS] Therefore, first the elect of the Church of Jesus Christ from among the Gentiles will hold on tight, and then the Hebrew people will hold on tight to that Angel; and we are in the time that is a prelude to that great event that will be manifested at this end time.
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*260 Now, Jacob, as he come up now, the first thing you know, he got a longing to go (where?) back to the homeland.
261 Oh, that’s exactly what Israel has done! That’s…That’s Israel. Jacob is Israel. He just had his name changed, you know. See? And he’s…
262 He got out there, and he got all the money he had, and he could get, and took it any way he could, from his kinsfolks or anybody else. So, cheating, stealing, lying, any way he could get it, he got it. See? He did.
263 And then when he starts back to home, he got to get a homesick feeling in his heart. But as he started back, on his road going back, he met God, then his name was changed. See? But, in this time, he was so worried, because he was afraid Esau was coming after him ([JBP] below that he writes): [WSS] «name change». See?
264 And watch, watch the money, the money proposition. Just like the Jew will try making this covenant with Rome, see, in their money proposition.
JBP[263] Notice it. That Esau didn’t need his money; neither does Rome. She’s got the wealth of the world in her hand. See? But it didn’t work.
265 But we find out now, that Israel, in that time of trouble [WSS] «by Mussolini, Stalin, Hitler», when he was Jacob, he wrestled with the…that got a hold of Something that was real. There was a Man come down. Jacob got his arms around Him, and he stayed there ([JBP] he writes above that): [WSS] «the Angel = Moses and Elijah». And the—and the—the Fellow said, “I must be going now ([JBP] here in this book he writes): [WSS] «[from] 6 to 7 a.m.». It’s coming daylight.” [WSS] «7th millennium».
[WSS] «[from] 1 to 41 years».
JBP[265] Oh, that breaking-of-the-day! See? It was fixing to come day.
JBPAnd on the right, going upwards, he writes: [WSS] «the Day = the Millennium».
266 But Jacob said, “I—I’m not going to leave You. You, You can’t go. I’m going to stay right with You.” See? “I want things changed here.”
267 That’s that hundred and forty-four thousand, that money-scheming bunch, and things like that, when they see the true, genuine thing to get a hold of. There stands Moses, and there stands Elijah. Amen! They’ll wrestle with God until one hundred and forty-four thousand of the tribes of Israel are called out right there.
268 That’s just before the Tribulation period, see…
JBP[WSS] «Rev. 7:2, 14:2, 11:3-7, 12:1-17».
And here he also writes: [WSS] «Rev. 10:1-7, Luke 17:30».
JBP[268] …(oh how wonderful) also, “Jacob’s trouble.”
269 Here is when the hundred and forty-four thousand is called out. They, the—the preachers, them two prophets, they preach like John the Baptist. “The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand. Repent, Israel!” Repent what? “Repent from your sins, your unbelief, and turn back to God!”
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*17610 – “[729] And there’s them two witnesses.
730 And when they tormented the church, or the world, by their preaching; and receiving back the Jews, and bringing them back to repentance, bringing them back to believe on...When they see Jesus coming for the Bride, they’ll say, ‘Lo, this is our God Who we waited on. That’s Him!’ But He’s not coming for them; He come for His Bride. And His Bride…
731 When Joseph went into Egypt, he did not take his brethren with him, but he got his bride there. Absolutely! But when he made hisself known to his brethren, there was nobody present. That’s exactly right. And when He makes Hisself known to these Jews, they’ll be nobody there but the Jews. There’s them who killed Joseph, standing there; and he said, ‘Well, I’m Joseph…’”
JBPThat is why, notice, it didn’t happen in any of the messengers nor in the time of Dr. William Soto Santiago; because the Bride was still there, under the Dispensation of Grace. She had to be in the Age of Cornerstone; where, he tells us here:
176 – “[731] …([JBP] see?) but he got his bride there ([JBP] that is, in the Palace). Absolutely! But when he made hisself known to his brethren, there was nobody present. That’s exactly right. And when He makes Hisself known to these Jews, they’ll be nobody there but the Jews. There’s them who killed Joseph, standing there; and he said, ‘Well, I’m Joseph…”
JBP176 – “[731] ‘…I’m Joseph, your brother.’ And he wept.
732 And they said, ‘Now we know we’re in for it, because we killed him.’
733 The same thing, those Jews will have that great time of trouble just before the coming now, of the persecution running them back into the homeland. It shooing them like a bunch of sheep back to Mount Carmel yonder.
734 When the Lord Jesus shall come for His Bride, and they see Him, they’ll say, ‘That’s the One we’ve waited on, there He is!’ He’ll rise with healing in His wings.” ([JBP] In other words with the ministries of Moses and Elijah).
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[WSS] Therefore, the elect will say: “I will not let You go until You bless me.” And I will say: “I will not let You go until You bless me!” And who else? Each one of you as well.
JBPBecause notice, they are waiting for him in the sixth dimension. And, as he had told us in last Sunday’s message (I think it was), that he says that [WSS] when that ministry of Moses and Elijah finish their testimony, he says he will just be taking a short three-and-a-half-day trip to the sixth dimension.
None of the messengers took a trip that short, rather, the messengers that have gone have stayed there, waiting for Moses and Elijah to get there, Revelation 11: the Coming of the Lord. [WMB] “He will come to you.”
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*Message from Sunday’s study, September 1, 2024THE MAN WHO RECEIVES THE VESTURE, THE HORSE AND THE CROWN OF THE KING (AND THE SCEPTER) (Ministers’ Meeting)
Dr. William Soto Santiago Monday, November 16, 2009 (Second service) Bogota, Colombia
[P. 30] … THE MAN WHO RECEIVES THE VESTURE, THE HORSE AND THE CROWN OF THE KING; Christ will carry it out through that man; because it will be Christ in Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit through the instrument that He has, working all those things. And God will take care of him. And when the time comes in which he must depart, well, it will be in the time ordained by God; but it will be for three and a half days, a vacation or a short trip to Paradise.
Remember that Christ took a trip to Paradise, although He had to go through another place that wasn’t very good, where He had a battle and where He obtained the keys of hell and of death, taking them away from the devil12.
JBPThe person has to be… What does an excerpt say there? Where it talks about the light, that a person has to be crazy not to see the light (it says something like that). In other words, how God has left us all of that there, so that when it is in fulfillment, we can see it. But remember that… (what we have read), it is by divine election, it is by predestination.
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*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[251] “...I’m going down in the basement. I—I just refuse to see it”? The guy is crazy. There is something wrong with him.
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*403 “Well,” I said, “if his group goes in, so will mine, ’cause I’ve preached exactly the same Word.” That’s it. I said, “Where he baptized in Jesus’ Name, I did, too. I preached…”
404 And millions screamed out, all at once, said, “We’re resting on That!”
405 And I thought, “My! If I had only knew this before I come here, I would make people come here. They can’t afford to miss this. Why, looky here!” And then…
406 And He said, “Now, someday He’ll come ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «Rev. 11:3-9».…
JBPAnd there he writes, here, in this other book: [WSS] «The Coming of Christ to Paradise, to the 6th dimension, as it was with the Old Testament saints». Which was a visit over there and He brought with Him those of the Old Testament.
[406] “Now, someday He’ll come, and then…Now, in here, we neither eat, drink, or sleep. We’re just all one.”
407 Well, it isn’t perfect; it’s beyond perfect. It’s not sublime; it’s beyond sublime. There is no name can…You can’t think…There ain’t no words in the vocabulary to say it. You’ve just arrived, that’s all.
408 And I thought, “Well, this, this would be perfect. And then what are we going to do next?”
JBPAnd “what are we going…” and he writes above: [WSS] «7th dimension».
“What are we going to do next?,” here at the bottom he writes: [WSS] «with the eternal body».
And here, in this other one, he also writes: [WSS] «(in the 7th dimension)» (he writes it on the side).
409 Said, “Then, when Jesus comes, and we’re…and He judges you, or for your ministry, then we go back to earth and take up bodies.” Well, I—I never thought about it then. That’s exactly the Scripture. Said, “Then we go back to earth and take up bodies, then we eat. We don’t eat here, neither do we sleep.” Said, “We eat down there, but we go back to the earth.”
410 I thought, “My, isn’t this wonderful! Oh, my! And I was afraid of it. Why was I afraid of dying, to come to this?
JBPAnd those writings that we’ve spoken about before.14
[410] Why was I afraid of dying, to come to this? Well, this is perfection, plus perfection, plus perfection. Oh, this is wonderful!”
411 See, we was right under the altar. See? That was it, see, right under the altar, waiting for the Coming ([JBP] in this half an hour of silence, what they are doing there is waiting; there is no activity in the Heaven), see, for Him to go get the ones that was sleeping in the…the—the bodies sleeping in the dust, to raise us again; come by, raise us up.
412 Like Jesus come through paradise, and brought up Abraham, Isaac, and all them, you know, was waiting the first resurrection. They entered into the city and appeared to many.
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[164] The Bible said that John “wept.”
165 Not as some people has taught it. I was hearing a man teach this one time, said, “John wept because that he found himself not worthy.” Oh! Any man under the Holy Spirit would know different from that, see; under the inspiration of God, would know different from that. (...) ([JBP] Let’s have this one open here as well, because he also writes here).
166 But, John “wept.” Here is what I think he wept for. Because, if no one was worthy and could open this Book of Redemption, the whole creation was lost.
JBPAnd on the left he writes:
[WSS] «John wept».
[WSS] «Everything lost».
[167] That’s God’s Own law, and He can’t defile His law, can’t defy His law, rather.
JBP[167] God required a Kinsman Redeemer Who was worthy, Who was able to do it, Who had the substance to do it.
168 And the Angel said, “Now let that Kinsman Redeemer step forward.”
169 And John looked. And he looked all over the earth. He looked beneath the earth. And there was nobody. There, creation and the everything was lost. Of course, John wept. Everything was lost.
JBP[WSS] «Creation was lost / John wept».
(In this one he writes it upwards; that is, if you have already written it there, you have to write it a bit higher or lower).
He writes in this one, going upwards: [WSS] «Everything was lost unless the Kinsman Redeemer appeared: a human being».
170 His crying didn’t last but just a minute, though. Then there stood one of the elders, said, “Don’t weep, John.” Oh, my! His crying didn’t last but just a minute.
171 John thought, “Oh, my, where is the Man? ([JBP] He draws a Star of David on the left, a Pyramid and the ages) There stands the prophets; they was born like I was. There stands the sages. There stands…Oh, ain’t there nobody here?”
172 “I want a Man that’s able to do it. I want a Man that can redeem.”
173 And he wasn’t found, so John broke out. Oh, everything was lost; and he wept bitterly. And he—he was sad, ’cause everything, the whole creation, everything was gone, if they couldn’t find somebody.
JBPHe draws a Star of David.
And he also writes: [WSS] «John wept».
And he draws another Star of David.
[173] Glory to God! If they couldn’t find somebody that can meet that requirements, there…every human being, and the whole world and creation, was gone. Oh, everything had fallen. The—the—the rights of redemption, the rights of—of Eternal Life, the Light, all these rights had been forfeited, and there was nobody who could pay the price. And John starts crying, ’cause no one was worthy, and no one could even look at the Book. Oh, it took a human being. John wept, because no one could do it, and everything was lost.
JBPAnd here on the left he draws a Star of David.
174 And there came a voice from one of the elders, standing in midst the four Beasts and all that great host of Heaven, said, “Don’t weep, John.” Oh, my!
175 (...) Grace of God!
176 “Don’t be brokenhearted, John. Don’t weep.
JBPJBPThere on the right he writes: [WSS] «The Lion».
And he draws a Star of David (on 76 at the bottom, on the right).
[176] Don’t weep. For the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root and Offspring from David, He has prevailed.”
177 Prevail means “wrestle with, and overcome.” Oh, my!
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*154 And Jesus said, “He that overcomes the antichrist and all the things of the world, shall sit with Me on My Throne, as I have overcome and have sit down on My Father’s Throne.” See?
155 Now, someday He rises from the Father’s Throne, and goes to take His Own Throne ([JBP] Which Throne is that? That human throne).
156 Now He comes forth to call His subjects. How is He going to claim them? He’s already got the Book of Redemption in His hand. (...)
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[177] The garden of Gethsemane, when Blood dropped down out of His face, He was overcoming. See? Whew! See?
178 “The Lion, and the Root of David, has prevailed, has overcome.”
JBP179 Like Jacob…
JBPAnd above that paragraph, page 77, he writes: [WSS] «Root and offspring of David».
179 Like Jacob, being supplanter. And when he got in contact with the Angel, he held on. And the Angel tried to pull away. He said, “I—I’m just not going to let You go.” ([JBP] on the right he writes): [WSS] «the Angel and Jacob» He held on until he got what he wanted for. And his name was changed, from supplanter, which means “deceiver.” To what? To “a prince with God,” Israel. He prevailed.
180 And this Lion of the tribe of Juda prevailed. He said, “Don’t weep, John. For the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, has prevailed. He has already overcome ([JBP] on the right he writes): [WSS] «John wept». He has done it. It’s over, John.” Whew! Oh, oh, my! He produced a bleach that sends sin along back to the greasy hands that the… with his wisdom, that defiled it, the human being. Yes.
JBP[WSS] «The Lion».
181 But when John turned to look, he saw a Lamb. What a different from a Lion! He said, “The Lion has prevailed.” See, again, I can use that there, God hiding in simplicity.
JBPAnd he writes: [WSS] «Lion = King and Judge».
[181] He said, “There’s a Lion.” That’s the king of the beast. “The Lion has prevailed.” ([JBP] but when John looks he sees a Lamb; he is seeing the same person) The strongest thing there is is a lion.
182 I’ve laid out in the jungles in Africa, and hear the—the giraffes squealing. And—and the great, mighty elephant, with his trunk in the air, “Whee, whee, whee.” And hear the—the—the savages of the desert screaming out their bloody, curdle cries. And the—the beetles, till… And Billy Paul and I laying in a little old place covered over with stickers.
JBP[182] And hear, a way off in a distance, a lion roar, and everything on the desert shuts up. Even the beetles stop hollering. The king speaks.
183 I tell you, that’s when denominations and doubts fall to the ground. Everything gets quiet when the King speaks. And This is the King, that’s His Word. Oh!
JBPAnd on the right he writes: [WSS] «Lion – King and Judge».
On the left he writes: [WSS] «Simplicity».
«The Lion — King».
«Silence for ½ hour».
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*WHAT IS GOD’S WORK TODAY? (Minister’s Meeting) Dr. William Soto Santiago Saturday, April 28, 2007 (Second activity) São Paulo, Brazil
We already have the model there; therefore, someone will be building that giant Tent. And God will manifest the ministry of Jesus, Elijah and Moses. ([JBP] Where? In the Tent). That is going to be manifested, because He promised it and He will fulfill it.
Message from study, Friday, March 22, 2024THE CORNERSTONE Dr. William Soto Santiago Sunday, November 29, 2015 Cayey, Puerto Rico
In the meantime, the words of Rev. William Marrion Branham were: “How He will come, and when He will come, we don’t know. And it’s a good thing that it isn’t said.”15 Why? So that it is not imitated.
[JBP] That is what we’ve been speaking about: How will they imitate the Second Coming of the Lord?
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*On page 45 of the message of “SOULS THAT ARE IN PRISON NOW,”16 in this one, I think it talks about what we read just now, or what we mentioned it, let’s see; page 45 below, says:
[320] If they’d have only knew the sign! If they’d have only knowed! Jesus said, said, “If you’d have only knowed your day, Jerusalem.
321 If you could have only recognized! But,” said, “now you’re left to your own.” ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «of that age and dispensation / the sign of this day». See? “If you’d have only know. O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, how oft I would have hovered you, as a hen would her brood, from the judgments that’s just to come! But you didn’t know your day.”
JBP[321] “You that stoned the prophets, and killed the righteous, if you’d have only known your day! If you’d have only knowed, and had been up on your Scripture ([JBP] and there he draws a Star of David on the right), and knowed that My coming was a sign of your end. Now you’re blind. Now you’ve been rebuked. Your time is over.” And it was. That’s right. “If you’d have only knowed the time!”
JBP[WSS] «The sign of the end for Jerusalem: The 1st Coming among the Jews.
The 2nd Coming, among the gentiles, is the sign of the end of the gentiles».
JBP322 Look, when Jesus made that declaration, the world went right on. See? The world went right on, normally. Why? For they knew not their hour.
323 The world went right on, when Noah went into the ark.
JBP323 The world went right on, when Noah went into the ark. The world moved right on. The scoffers, in that day, they still had sex parties. They still eat, drink, married, done the things they do today. Just exactly, normally. “Ha-ha! That old holy-roller closed the door. Now, did you ever hear of such a thing? Ha-ha! You know what he says? We’re all going to be ‘drowned.’ Nonsense! Where is the water at?”
JBP324 Scoffers, in the days of Noah. “So shall it be in the coming of the Son of man.” All right. Noah knew the sign. Same thing in the days of Lot. Same things in the days of Jesus. So is it today. They scoff their last time…?…
325 Same at Sodom, they never knew. When that Messenger was standing there, Message from God, they only laughed at them and tried to pervert them to their own acts. Is that right? “Come in and join us. Be one of us.” Is that right? “Come in and join us, be one of us. You’ll be one of the boys. Come on, join us.” See? They never knew their sign.
326 They didn’t know that when that Message was going on, that the very…They couldn’t see it, that the fire and wrath of judgment, as God, a fire blazes of brimstone was kindling in the skies.
JBP[326] They couldn’t see it. The messengers could. Uh-huh. Lot knew it, too. He knew it was there. Certainly.
327 Same as it is today, just the same thing. Wrath is kindling, atomic bombs are hanging, everything is at the end. It’s the same now.
328 Look, people, listen. Did you know…You say, “Brother Branham, oh, what about all of it?” You know, people can go right on preaching the Gospel like they always did, what they call the Gospel, it could be over ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «the Gospel of Grace». They did in the days of Noah. They did in the days of Lot. They did in the days of Jesus. That right?
329 Even the Jews, after Jesus told them that the wrath…“You’re done. You’re finished. There is no more. You’re finished.”
JBP[WSS] «Jesus spoke to them of the judgment, and then He was ready for the 3rd Pull».
330 “Oh,” he said, “that holy-roller. What school did He come from? Where did He come, that?”
331 Remember, He was ready then for His Third Pull. Uh-huh. That’s right. He said, “How oft would I have hovered you!”
Matthew 23:37
37 O Jerusalem, Jerusalem, thou that killest the prophets, and stonest them which are sent unto thee, how often would I have gathered thy children together, even as a hen gathereth her chickens under her wings, and ye would not!
[JBP] Notice, that same thing repeats at this end time with the ministries of Moses and Elijah. His Wings are those ministries. And that Scripture will echo again: “How often would I have gathered you together, and ye would not!”
38 Behold, your house is left unto you desolate.
39 For I say unto you, Ye shall not see me henceforth, till ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord.
[JBP] Here, in this Bible, he writes: [WSS] «In the 2nd Coming of the Lord». And he writes at the bottom: [WSS] «Rev. 14:1, 7:2». That’s the Angel with the Seal of the living God.
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*332 Lot made his last call… or, I mean, the Angel did, the messenger, ever who He was. God represented for this day ([JBP] and on the right he writes): [WSS] «Elohim» ([JBP] and a Cornerstone and a Star of David), God represented in human flesh, made the last sign, performed the last duty. It was all over then.
JBP333 Noah preached his last sermon; the door closed behind him.
JBP[333] That was all. They laughed at it, and made fun of it.
334 Think, the people can go right on preaching! The Ecumenical Council can join up with the Catholic church, just as they promised to do. All organizations can come on, but the mark of the beast is already there. They take it, in that. See?
JBP[WSS] «The Door was shut».
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[WSS] So that it is not imitated. Because everything will be so simple, that when we come to realize, we will have the Cornerstone, the Capstone, with us, and with the Two Olive Trees. And then we will see that full manifestation of the Son of Man, of the Lord, with the Two Olive Trees: Moses and Elijah.
That manifestation will be the greatest manifestation of God on Earth under the New Covenant in the midst of His Church. That is where the elect who will be living at the end time will receive the redemption of the body, which is our transformation, the physical adoption as sons and daughters of God, with physical Eternal Life in young, immortal, glorified bodies, like the glorified body that Jesus Christ our Savior has, who is as young as when He ascended to Heaven.
*Dr. Jose B. Perez*378 Lord Jesus, I have done the best that I know how. I’ve done all that I know how. Grant, Lord, that the mercy doors are still open. Of these hundreds, literally hundreds seeking Thee at this time, take away every sinful blot, Lord, and take them in today.
379 I—I plead, with all my heart, as we see not only somebody talking, but, the Scripture Itself bringing us to this hour. And that vision, of a little boy, seeing those people in that condition; and now, think, that hell itself, mercy has been blotted from the earth, and now hell itself is here, and the people, Lord, are in this hideous condition.
380 O Mighty God, on this Elected Church, I pray, God, that You’ll pour out Your blessings, that they might receive a—a ministry [WSS] «to Moses and Elijah» of testimony, that like Lot had, like Noah had, like Jesus had…
JBPJBP[380] … like Jesus had, unto the Eternal lost (...); that they themselves are sealed into the Kingdom of God, but giving witness to Jesus Christ being the same yesterday, today, and forever.
JBP[WSS] «Sealed by the Testimony of Jesus Christ».
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*384 Lord Jesus, I pray that You’ll save Becky and Sarah and Joseph, and them, too, Lord. Don’t let this happen to my children ([JBP] he writes): [WSS] «My children», Lord. Don’t let it happen to my brothers and my friends. Grant it, Lord.
385 We don’t know, we don’t know, but we’re seeing something, Lord. Is it a shaking sign right now before us? Grant it, Lord. Draw us all close to You, quickly, Lord. We love You and we need You.
JBP[385] We love You and we need You. Let it be, Father, the Holy Spirit give us comfort in our hearts now.
386 We pray that we might be witnesses to You in this hour, for we know this has got to happen. It’s been predicted through the ages, and we must face it, that we’re at the end time when we see these signs appearing. We know, and been told for many years now, that this thing shall take place. Now we see it right in our door, great mighty wrath of God moving through the streets, taking out the uncircumcised. Where there is no Blood on the door, the death angel visits; and they go right on living, but dead while they’re living ([JBP] they go right on living, but they’re dead), without mercy, without God, and can never be saved.
387 God, how we thank You for these who are saved! How we… What a great blessing it is to our hearts, to be on the inside now, under the Blood, while that last angel passes through the land, taking out the…
388 The ones out from under the blood, they died without mercy.
JBP[388] That was Moses’ last pull. First, a—a young man talking to Israel; second, went down to deliver them; third, was the last message ([JBP] and he writes): [WSS] «Rev. 7:2, 14:1». The miracles had been done, Moses was on his road to the promised land, with the redeemed.
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*[277] And notice when the Third Pull of His ministry come. The First was healing the sick.
278 The Second was rebuking the organizations, and prophesying; what they had done, what they were, and what was coming. What is, what is, will come; and what was, what is, and what will come. That’s what He done. Is that right?
279 But His Third Pull was when He preached to the lost that couldn’t be saved no more. They were down there where them big, painted eyes was, “Ooh, ooh!” Preached to the souls in hell, that did not accept mercy, but were Eternally separated from the Presence of God. But yet they had to recognize it, what He was, because God made Him there.

Let’s stand, and thus, we will now leave Dr. William Soto Santiago with this subject.
And… I don’t know if we have a song, I think they had prepared the… a hymn with our sister Ruth; I don’t know if Ruth can… Our brother Jose Guillermo can tell us the title there. We can sing that hymn, we can learn it.
A sister wrote that hymn in ‘98, around there. I don’t know if I have the text here after all those who have messaged me since then; but let’s see if they message me (so that they put it up [on the screen] her name; they sent it to me yesterday.
I think you rehearsed it last night, right? And I think I even got to sing it back then; when we went on the tours there I think I sang it too.
“THE FORMULA OF LOVE,” is that the title? Go on. Edith is her name, Edith Ripoll, the sister.
THE FORMULA OF LOVE
If your goal is to reach the transformation,
divine love will reign in your heart.
Ask the Lord to reveal to you
that great Formula of Love.
God is pure Divine Love,
that is why He has sent
His Anointed One at this time,
in the Age of Love Divine.
He expresses to us through that Formula of Love,
and we receive it by predestination.
Theophany: come closer to me,
help me to continue preparing myself.
God is pure Divine Love,
that is why He has sent
His Anointed One at this time,
who brings us that Formula of Love.
Interlude
That formula is: faith, patience, virtue,
knowledge, brotherly love, temperance and godliness.
Theophany: come closer and closer,
help me reach my goal.
God is pure Divine Love,
that is why He has sent
His Anointed One at this time,
giving us the faith for the adoption.
God is pure Divine Love,
that is why He has sent
Jose at this time,
in the Age of Love Divine.
//He brings us that Formula of Love.//
JBP*Dr. Jose B. Perez*THE NEW TEMPLE Dr. William Soto Santiago Sunday, December 25, 1977 Cayey, Puerto Rico
We have seen You working that way, even in this time that we are in.
Now, Lord, we thank You and ask You to forgive us for our mistakes, for our sins, that we have committed along the way here.
Lord, forgive us…, we recognize that we have been guilty, we recognize that we have been rebellious to Your Plan; which was for our blessing. We recognize that Your Plan is perfect and we didn’t understand It.
We recognize, Lord, that we have been delaying Your Plans; but Lord, ([JBP] now, apply that prayer to today), in this hour we surrender ourselves to You and we say to You, oh, God!: “Be it in us according to Your Will, not as we will, but as You will.” May it be so, that is our desire.
Oh, Eternal God! We are in Your hands. We have no more words to speak to You, oh, God! But You understand our feelings. You understand what is in our heart. You understand our heart’s desire, oh, God; and Lord, we know that we were the ones who failed You in all the times past; but Your Promises have never failed and will never fail.
Lord, help us! We need Your help. Lord, we know and we recognize that if You don’t help us, we will perish. Therefore help us, Lord, in this hour in which we truly need help. Lord, we commend ourselves into Your Hands, guide us in everything.
Lord, You know that we desire the transformation of our bodies, which You have promised us. You know that we desire to be translated from here; and we desire it because You have promised it to us; and even if You hadn’t promised it, we would’ve still desired to be translated from here. But our desire is a desire based on Your Word; therefore, it’s not difficult to ask for a promise that You have made to us.
We ask You, Lord, for the fulfillment of Your Promise to us.
Lord, have mercy on us and transform us! [Transform us!] Transform us, Lord! We are in Your hands. ([JBP] He stays on that…) Transform us, Lord! Transform our bodies, redeem our bodies, oh, God! There’s nothing else we can desire.
In these earthly bodies, we make mistakes daily, but in the transformed body we know that there will be no sin, there will be no room for making mistakes. And we desire to not [fail] fail You, oh, God! Therefore, Lord, we desire to be transformed and taken out of this dimension.
We desire, we love and we ask for Your Promises, oh, God!
Oh, God! What more can we say! What more can we desire!? There is nothing else we can desire at this hour.
[JBP] Likewise at this hour: there is nothing else.
[WSS] Lord, You have said that You will give us our heart’s desire. That is our heart’s desire. Granting us that desire —transforming us— depends on You.
[JBP] And now notice how beautiful this is:
[WSS] Lord… Oh, God! We ask You to command those mysterious lights, which are our theophanic bodies, receive the command from You to come to these earthly bodies of ours and transform us. ([JBP] Now, that command is given by that veil of flesh) If we could do it ourselves, Lord, You know that we would; but we’re not [the] ones who will seek those lights; it will be them, will be those theophanic bodies, that will seek us to transform us. Lord, may it be soon!
Oh, God! We don’t want to be here in these earthly bodies anymore. We want to be in the other body, in the glorified body.
Lord, You know that we will continue working in Your Work, but without limits; we will be able to do a better job, we will be able to work and do everything that must be done.
JBPI’m waiting for the divine command, and I say to Him: Lord, may it be soon! And that is about to happen, it won’t be long now!
And that “glad day”… where does he say that “that glad day that will come”? [WMB] “When the world is in confusion, that glad day will arrive for us.”24
I think we can sing it once again, that beautiful song, which has touched our heart. [The hymn is sung again –Ed.]
In the song’s interludeJBPIn other words, we can rest assured: We will reach the goal of our transformation! It’s a promise. And whose is it? Yours and mine! It’s ours! And no one will take it out of our hand.
“THE MINISTRIES OF MOSES AND ELIJAH OPERATING AT THE END OF TIME;” which we are seeing and hearing, live and in full color.
Let’s leave with us right away, our dear brother and friend, Dr. William Soto Santiago.
