Has He Come? (Second Coming of Christ)

How can we know?

What will He do?

Why they will miss Him!

 

This compilation of quotes is an attempt to place the words of the prophet in a logical order to clearly show how Christ would return, what he would do, and how we could recognize this glorious event.  The actual messages and the dates they were preached are of various dates describing these events.  I have tried hard to not place any quotes out of the context he was preaching it in.  If you find this is not the case, please let me know, and I will correct the error.

 

The following scripture is telling how Jesus left and how He would return at His second coming.

Acts – Chapter 1

But ye shall receive power, after... the Holy Ghost is come upon you: and ye shall be witnesses unto me both in Jerusalem, and in... Judaea, and in Samaria, and to the uttermost parts of the earth.  And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.

And while they looked stedfast towards heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;  Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand you gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as you have seen him go into heaven.

 

>>Speaking of Jesus transfigured on the mountain.  In Mathew 16-17 Bro. Branham told us that this was a preview of Christ second coming.  Notice!  Moses and Elihah was also represented in this coming.  Peter, James, and John were a witness.  <<

 

 

MATTHEW 16:27

  27    For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.

  28    Verily I say unto you, There be some standing here, which shall not taste of death, till they see the Son of man coming in his kingdom.

 

MATTHEW 17:1

  1       And after six days Jesus taketh Peter, James, and John his brother, and bringeth them up into an high mountain apart,

  2    And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun, and his raiment was white as the light.

  3    And, behold, there appeared unto them Moses and Elias talking with him.

  4    Then answered Peter, and said unto Jesus, Lord, it is good for us to be here: if thou wilt, let us make here three tabernacles; one for thee, and one for Moses, and one for Elias.

  5    While he yet spake, behold, a bright cloud overshadowed them: and behold a voice out of the cloud, which said, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased; hear ye him.

 

REV.CHAP.4.PT.2.24.ELDERS_  JEFF.IN  ROJC 585-643  SUNDAY_  61-0101

Now, if you'll notice, it compares with the rest of the Scripture. In the back parts of the Scripture, He was Alpha, Omega, He was the Beginning and the Ending, He was the First and the Last, He was Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. He was All, and all was bundled in Him. Matthew 17 shows that, up in the Mount Transfiguration, it was all gathered in Him.

>> The ministry of Moses and Elijah was gathered in Jesus also <<

 

UNCERTAIN.SOUND_  JEFF.IN  V-16 N-3  SUNDAY_  60-1218

  382    Well, what did He do here when He was transfigured? The Greek says, "He changed His fashion." Oh, look--look at the order of the resurrection. That's what struck me just then. Notice. What appeared first?

He, back over here in the next chapter, the 16th chapter, He told them, "Some standing there should not die until they seen the Kingdom of God coming in power." In other words, what would they do, they'd see the foretaste of the Kingdom of God, they'd know the order of the resurrection and the coming of God. See, in the 16th chapter.

Now, here He goes up there, and He... What happened, His fashion was changed. In other words, He was revealed in another way. Do you follow me? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.]

 

  385    What did we find the revelation was the other night in the apocalypse, the apocalypse means? A sculptor, it was done down here, making something; and then what he does, he just takes the curtain out, said, "There it is."

What was He redoing here? He was revealing Himself in another fashion? What was He in? A glorified, transfigured condition, His coming, the way He's coming: a glorified Christ, transformed. His raiment shined like the sun. My. Oh, He stood in the cloud; and He's coming in the clouds of glory. Overshadowed by a cloud; not a little white thunderhead up yonder, but the cloud that He comes in is a cloud of glory, all these Angels with Him.  (>> Luther, Wesley, Paul, etc..<<)Hallelujah. My, that's the way He's coming, coming in a cloud of glory.

MATTHEW 25:31

  31       When the Son of man shall come in his glory, and all the holy angels with him, then shall he sit upon the throne of his glory:

 

I THESSALONIANS 4:13-18

  E-1    ... I would not have you... ignorant, brethren, concerning those which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope.

For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them that sleep in Jesus will God bring with him.

For this we say unto you by the Word of the Lord, that we which are alive and remain unto the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them that are asleep.

For the Lord himself shall descend from the heaven with a shout, (>>the message<<) and the voice of the archangel, and the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:

Then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together... in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air... so shall we ever be with the Lord.

Wherefore comfort one another with these words.

 

RAPTURE.THE_  YUMA.AZ  V-5 N-14  SATURDAY_  65-1204

 129    Now, I want you to notice a great thing taken place here now. Don't miss this. See? Now, notice, the Word says here in II Thessalonians that there's three things... Notice, from the 13th to the 16th verse there's three things that has to happen before the Lord Himself appears. (Quickly now so we can close. See?) The first thing happened, notice: a shout, a voice, a trumpet. Let's read it now and see if that's right. See?

For the Lord himself... (16th verse)... shall descend from heaven with a shout, and with a voice of the archangel, and... the trump of God:...

 

130  Three things happen, a voice--a shout, a voice, a trumpet, has to happen before Jesus appears. Now, a shout. Jesus does all three of them when He's--He's--He's descending. A "shout," what is a "shout"? It's the Message going forth first, the living Bread of Life bringing forth the Bride.   Now, God has a way of doing things, and He never changes His policy. He never changes His... He's the unchanging God. In Amos 3:7 He said He would do nothing on the earth until first He revealed it to His servants the prophets. And just as certain as He promised it, He'll do it.

 

  164    Therefore, the Message calls the Bride together. See? The shout and the trumpet, the same morning with a loud voice He screamed out with that shout, and--and voice and woke Lazarus. With a loud voice He cried, "Lazarus, come forth." See? And the voice wakes up--wakes up the sleeping Bride, the sleeping dead.  And the trumpet, with the sound of the trumpet, and when it does, it calls... Always a trumpet called Israel to the Feast of the Trumpets (See?), which was the Pentecostal feast, the great feast in the sky and the Feast of the Trumpets... And now, a trumpet denounced a calling together, calling to the feast. And now that is the--the Lamb's supper in the sky (Now, watch.,)--the assembling together in the Bride, the Feast of the Trumpets, the Wedding Supper.

We have seen it in types. Now, watch just a moment before we close.

(>> notice, the shout is the message that wakes the Gentile bride, The voice raised the New Testament saints that had died in the faith, and the trumpet calls Israel to the feast of the trumpets. All at the time, while He is descending.<<)

 

(>> a few more quotes tying the sleeping saints with the second coming and the rapture<<)

 

EASTER.SEAL_  PHOENIX.AZ  V-2 N-6  SATURDAY_  65-0410

The New Testament saints with that quickening power shall resurrect also at His second coming, (>>Previously stated above Rapture pg 164 – And the voice wakes up--wakes up the sleeping Bride, the sleeping dead.<<) just as sure as the Old Testament saints with all that quickening power upon their bones, and translations, and powers, and so forth that showed of God. Them prophets, who the Word of God came to, they resurrected with Him on that resurrection morning.

And with the promise of God, that everyone that's in Christ Jesus will also come with Him in His resurrection: the quickening power of God upon the bones.

(>>Bride of 7 church ages makes up the complete unit as identified in the following quote<<)

 

BLASPHEMOUS.NAMES_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-21  SUNDAY_  62-1104M

  20-3    … omitted .. And each one of these ages had that rock confession. The saints are sleeping, waiting, waiting, waiting, waiting (See?) on till this age, but soon the Holy Ghost, being poured out from Christ, will come and will seal up the Church, then the Church will be raptured. It'll be a complete unit of God,  a Bride for Christ, who will be the head of all things. You follow me now?

(>> What are the sleeping saints waiting for?  This age, when the Holy Ghost will be poured out from Christ and seal up the Church.  The resurrected saints of all 7 church ages make up that raptured Bride --- No room for he foolish virgins to be purged and later injected into this , after the rapture.  The prophet called it a ‘complete unit’.  If something is complete, nothing can be added to it<<)

 

DESPERATION_  JEFF.IN  V-4 N-1  SUNDAY_  63-0901E

And all the things that He hasn't done down through the ages, in the church ages, He is now doing. Back to the Word, because the messages, and the messages, and the messages has to wind up in the entire Word. And in the last days, the Seven Seals being open, was to pick up every straggle that's been left off in it and make the whole thing in one great big body of the Bride, that them who lived back there was not perfect until this church be perfected, the Bride group in the last days, to bring them in and all together be taken up. See?

>>If this church is perfected, how you going to add foolish virgins (after the rapture) to something that is perfected?>>

 

UNITING.TIME.AND.SIGN_  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-10  SUNDAY_  63-0818

  123    All right. We find that now the time comes when the Trumpet sounds, and those sleeping saints back there that could not be made perfect without us... There's many of those, Hebrew 11, and when they come together, they unite with the living ones. The Church uniting with the Word, then the Church and the Word uniting together, being come one. The dead saints with the living saints uniting together to be one, and all going together to unite with Christ yonder for the wedding supper of the Lamb.

 

(>> Is this the same trumpet (above) that sounds while he is descending, and His voce is awaking the sleeping dead?  II Thes 4<<)

 

THIRD.EXODUS_  JEFF.IN  V-2 N-21  SUNDAY_  63-0630M

  41-4    As you know, "Life" magazine packed it last month over there, where... How many was here and heard me tell about that would happen before it did? I think about everyone in the church. There it is. They don't know what it's all about. The scientist are trying to... "Anybody got a picture, of it, call in"--a cloud twenty-six miles high in the shape of a pyramid: seven Angels represented in there and brought back, and brought you the Word of God, under the inspiration and tells you these hours that you're coming and living in. The spiritual mind will pick that right now (See?) and get it. It's an exodus. We're going to leave one of these days. Thanks be to God..

>> see those angels? Christ coming with his holy angels bringing on an exodus<<

 

ASHAMED.OF.HIM_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-9  SUNDAY_  65-0711

  63    [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] See the picture the other day, how He turned that picture sideways there? And the very picture of that seven Angels being lifted up, turn it to the right-hand side, and there is the face of the Lord Jesus looking down to the earth again.

 

66 …I went up there and started on that first church age, there the Holy Spirit revealed it. Now, you got it right on your church ages. I guess the books will be out pretty soon now, the full detail of it. And it showed that Jesus was Judge. There's a white wig that they used to wear, put a wig on and wear it as a judge (England still does it.) when you got supreme authority. And that turning sideways in this picture, there He is, His black hair, you can see it in the side of His beard, and the white wig on. He is the last of the authority; He's Supreme Authority. Even God said so Himself, "This is My beloved Son; hear ye Him."

 

  67    There He is with them Angels, the message, which was the seven--breaking of them seven seals that revealed serpent's seed and all these things here. And it shows that it is His very covering; it's His--it's His supreme authority. He is Supreme, and He's wigged or--or covered.  The Bible said that He changed His countenance, or He changed Himself, en morphe.

>> wigged with the cloud, showing His supreme authority to bring judgement <<

 

>>He begins to talk of this Mighty Angel, the one that came in the cloud, clearly separating Him from the 7th church age angel (William Branham)<<

 

REV.CHAP.5.PART.2_  JEFF.IN  ROJC 747-793  SUNDAY_  61-0618

  207    The seven and last one of these seals, when they're opened, is found in Revelations the 10th chapter; there was a mighty Angel (which was Christ) came down and put one foot on the land and one on the sea, and raised up His hand, and says, "The day is finished. Time is run out. It's all over. Time shall be no more."

And He said at the sounding of the... At this time the mystery of God should be finished: Who God is, and how He was made manifest; how when that seal was opened, how we begin to understand now how that He was the Son of God; He was God Himself made flesh; and the revelation of Who He is; that should be finished before this Angel can put His feet upon the land and sea and swear that there'll be time no more when this time comes. We're right in that front yard of it right now. See?

The last one of them is Revelations 10, foot on land and on sea; time had run out; redemption is over; now He comes in as the Lion. He was a Lamb then; now He comes in as Lion of the tribe of Juda.

 

IS.THIS.THE.SIGN.OF.THE.END.SIR_  JEFF.IN  V-2 N-11  SUNDAY_  62-1230E

  45-6    Those stars falling into their constellation back yonder; that Angel coming and said, "As John was sent to wind up the Old Testament and to bring forth the introduction of Christ, your message will wind up the loose ends and will introduce the Messiah just before His coming." The message of the last days, notice, the mighty Angel swore with an oath, that time would be no more. Now, I don't want to keep you too long. Just think of this a minute now.

 

  45-7    Now, listen. This Angel come down from heaven. See, the other seven angels of the seven churches was earthly messengers, but this Angel... All the message is finished. The seventh angel winds up the whole thing. And this Angel comes, not to the earth; He isn't a man from the earth as the messengers to the church ages; that's finished. But this Angel brings the next announcement. And a angel means a messenger. And He comes down from heaven clothed in that Pillar of Light, cloud, with a rainbow over His head. And a rainbow is a covenant. It was Christ, with one foot on land and one on the sea, and swore that time will be no more.

 

BREACH.THE_  JEFF.IN  SUNDAY_  63-0317E

  74-2  {40}    Now, you see, I'm just not making that up. That's what... It's THUS SAITH THE LORD. I'll read it to you out of the Book: the sounding of the seventh angel's message, the mystery of God should be finished that's been declared by His holy prophets. That's the prophets who has wrote the Word. At the sounding of the seventh church age, the last church age, all the loose ends that through these church ages have been probed at, will be wound up together. And when the Seals are broke and the mystery is revealed, down comes the Angel, the Messenger, Christ, setting His foot upon the land and upon the sea with a rainbow over His head. Now remember, this seventh angel is on earth at the time of this coming.

 

  74-4  {44}    Now, we see that this seven-sealed Book now, is the mystery of redemption. It's a Book of Redemption from God. Now, all the mysteries at this time should be finished at the sounding of this messenger. Now, here's the angel on earth, and another Angel, mighty Messenger come down. See, this angel was a earthly angel, messenger. But here comes One down from heaven: a rainbow, covenant. See? Only Christ, it could be; just exactly like it was in Revelations 1st chapter, standing in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks with a rainbow to look upon as jasper and sardius stone.

 

  75-1  {47}    And here He returns back in the 10th chapter after the coming time, that all the mysteries is to be finished, and the Seals are to be broke, and proclaiming that its time is no more. And he said, "When the seventh angel has begin to sound, then the mysteries should be finished and time for the Angel to appear. We're close, somewhere. That's right.

 

>>When does Christ come back to earth again?  At the breaking of the seals (seventh seal) while the 7th angel is on earth, this mighty Angel comes down<<

 

 

FUTURE.HOME_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-5  SUNDAY_  64-0802

  33-1    Seven days is (watch) which pass away, or I have said, will change to another. Eight days deals with new creation (See?), not old creation; eight days is new creation. For it was on the eighth day that our Lord raised from the dead. There's your other convocation--the holiness, not considered in the sabbaths at all, or the feast of the tabernacles, the feast of this, the feast of the pentecost. Jesus raised from the dead for our justification on the eighth day. After the seven sabbaths or seven days, seven Church Ages, Jesus raised from the dead. Eighth day, which is a holy convocation (See?), which is the first day. See, you've done passed through time and dropped into eternity again, not keeping of days, and keeping of sabbaths and new moons, and things like that, but have passed; changed your form, not annihilated (Glory.), but passed from death unto Life Eternal. Oh, what the Bible does teach us. See? Passed from one to another...

>> Jesus is raised (Word Form) AFTER the seven church ages are over, and we are raised with him, NOW setting in heavnly places  <<

 

THE.SEED.IS.NOT.HEIR.WITH.THE.SHUCK_  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-4  THURSDAY_  65-0218

101   Now notice. But at the opening of the Seven Seals, Revelations 10, the full Word is to be born into manifestation again, and vindicated by the Spirit of God, in the full strength as It was when He was here on earth; manifested in the same way, doing the same things that It did when It was here on earth.

>>The full Word comes back into manifestation at the breaking of the seals<<

 

SOULS.THAT.ARE.IN.PRISON.NOW_  JEFF.IN  V-2 N-22  SUNDAY_  63-1110M

347    But, remember, all this time, Noah was in the ark. The Bride is sealed in with Christ, the last member has been redeemed. The Sixth Seal has produced itself. The Seventh Seal brings Him back to earth. The Lamb come and took the Book out of the right hand of Him, and set down and claimed what He owned, what He had redeemed. That right? It's always been that Third Pull.

 

MAN.THAT.CAN.TURN.ON.LIGHT_  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-1  SUNDAY_  63-1229M

  24    omitted talk about meeting place, etc.

See, on the Sixth Seal, all Seven Trumpets sound right there on that Sixth Seal (See?), just before the Seventh Seal opens the coming of Christ.

 

FEAST.OF.THE.TRUMPETS_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-16  SUNDAY_  64-0719M

  36-3    Pentecost feast finishes at the period of the Seventh Trumpet, for the next is the coming of the--or Seventh Seal, for the next is the mystery of the coming of Christ, and also the trumpet is sound for the Jews. Their Sixth Trumpet is sound, and when it does, it makes known to them the revealed Son of God. One-half hour is fixed. Remember, all trumpets sound on this Sixth Seal. The Sixth Seal finishes the mystery--under the Sixth Seal just before the Seventh opened.

 

>> I include the following quote, because I feel It is taken out of the context many times.  Would the prophet say, He has come, the seventh seal is his coming, then turn around and say, “the seventh seal hasn’t opened yet”?  Notice the context he says this in 1964 (after the opening of the 7th seal). <<

 

FEAST.OF.THE.TRUMPETS_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-16  SUNDAY_  64-0719M

  26-4    Notice, two hundred thousand demons turned loose upon those Jews, when they burned them, they crucified them; they put bubbles in their veins; they killed them till they had no more gas to kill them with; and they shot them till they had no more bullets to shoot with; and they--and they done everything they could do. They cremated their bodies and everything, and hung them on fences, children and all, innocent people. Because they were Jews, they were done that way. But God said He give each one of them a robe, undeserving as they was, but His grace to blind them so that we could see...

That Seventh Seal hasn't opened yet, you know; that's His coming.

>> you just have to deal with this one in prayer<<

 

>>What He will do in His second coming.. second coming identified<<

 

SUPER.SIGN_  S.GATE.CA  SUNDAY_  62-0624

  E-58    Now, notice, so the Scripture is strictly interpreted by Itself. Notice. "And he shall turn," his first coming, "the hearts of the fathers to the children," taking the old patriarch fathers, and turning their faith to this new children's faith of Jesus being... coming before Him... "I'm coming before Jesus." The Messiah's coming, turning their hearts to this--away from the law to This.  And in his second coming, He will turn the hearts of the children back to the original Pentecostal fathers again. That brings to pass Joel's prophecy saying, "I will restore all the years that the palmerworm, and cankerworm, and so forth, has eaten."

>>It is IN His second coming that the prophecy of Joel is fulfilled – the message of the seventh messenger restoring the things that was lost in the ages..correct water baptism, serpent seed, etc<<

 

IS.THIS.THE.SIGN.OF.THE.END.SIR_  JEFF.IN  V-2 N-11  SUNDAY_  62-1230E

And people are setting here tonight, and many still living, that was standing here on the river when that voice spoke that out and said,  "As John was sent forth with a message of the first coming, so is this the second message of the second coming." You remember? And if it's finished, what did John do? John was the one who said, "Behold, there's the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world. That's Him."

 

SIR.WE.WOULD.SEE.JESUS_  NY.NY  V-18 N-7  TUESDAY_  63-1112

And I truly believe that we are just facing some great event. I--I trust it's the coming of the Lord. Become... We know something has to give away, the world's under too much tension. And there's something wrong. Everyone knows that. And I--I believe that we are facing some great thing, and I believe, with all my heart, that it's the second coming of the Lord Jesus.

 

IS.THIS.THE.SIGN.OF.THE.END.SIR_  JEFF.IN  V-2 N-11  SUNDAY_  62-1230E

As John the Baptist was sent forth to forerun the first coming of Christ, you're sent forth with a message to forerun the second coming of Christ."  (>>7th Church age messenger is to forerun the second coming. (not son of man)

 

WHAT.IS.THE.ATTRACTION?_  JEFF.IN  V-8 N-8  SUNDAY_  65-0725E

  107    Notice this Scripture here parallels that. "And he, Elijah, shall turn the hearts of the fathers to the children." (Now, speaking of Malachi 4, do not get it mixed, or Malachi 3.) John, Elijah, who came in the days before the first coming of Christ, turned the hearts of the old patriarch fathers to the message of the children, the new message.

Now, watch! "And the hearts of the children to the fathers." In his second coming, in the last days, he turns back to the apostolic Faith again. See how perfect the Scriptures line up?

That was the end of the Old Testament, the Old Testament. Now, we see there's Light in the evening time. What is It? It's the top, Mount Treetop

>>again, we see the fulfillment of the prophet Joel, the seventh church age messenger turning the hearts of the children of that age back to the faith of the fathers again, restoring all that was lost in those 7 ages. <<

 

VOICE.OF.THE.SIGN_  DENHAM.SP.LA  SATURDAY_  64-0321E

  E-13    Now, God has had exodus before. There is... Everything travels in a three with God. God's perfected in a three. First coming of Christ to redeem His Bride, second coming of Christ to receive His Bride, (>>Is this receiving, the rapture? <<) third coming of Christ with His Bride to rule in the millennium; everything runs in a three.

 

IT.IS.I.BE.NOT.AFRAID_  COLUMBIA.SC  MONDAY_  62-0611

  E-52    Don't get them threes out of your mind, like justification, sanctification, baptism of the Holy Ghost; Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, all those perfection numbers: first coming to redeem His Bride, second coming to catch His Bride away, third time coming with His Bride: all--all's in threes, all through the Bible. 

>>a little plainer “catch His Bride away in the second coming”, surely this is the rapture<<

 

RAPTURE.THE_  YUMA.AZ  V-5 N-14  SATURDAY_  65-1204

  65    But to the church, the Bride, the rapture is a revelation to her. It's revealed to her, that the revelation, the true Bride of Christ will be waiting for that revelation of the rapture.

Now, it is a revelation, for the revelation is faith. You cannot have a revelation without it being faith. Faith is a revelation, because it's something that's revealed to you. Faith is a revelation. Faith is something that has been revealed to you like it was to Abraham, that could call anything contrary to what had been revealed to him as though it wasn't so.

>>The rapture is a revelation, not speaking of a revelation of the rapture<<

 

CHURCH AGE BOOK

…And the land shall mourn, every family apart; the family of the house of David apart, and their wives apart; the family of the house of Nathan apart, and their wives apart..." and each one of the houses apart when He comes in clouds of glory at His Second Coming

(>> notice this coming is to the Jews, like when he took Naomi to get Ruth <<)

 

>>At this coming, Jesus is coming also for Israel, though the world missed it.  Notice this angel of the Covenant, Gabriel announcing the second coming to the Jews.<<

 

THIRSTING.FOR.LIFE_  PHOENIX.AZ  FRIDAY_  60-0304
  (omitted)
Then I'll take a little trip, and we'll go again, and we'll go up to the great Archangel, Gabriel, Who is the messenger of the covenant to the Jewish people,  << Gabriel does this.>>  Who stands at the right hand of God, one of the highest order of Angels in the heaven. And I would say to Him, "Gabriel, Thou art a mighty Angel. You are loved of God, and You've been here for eons of time, and You, perhaps, know everything in the heavens, and where everything is placed, because You're one of God's right hand Angels. And You know the great secrets of the heavens. You sounded the trumpet at the coming of the Lord Jesus. << Gabriel does this >>,  You announced His first coming, and You shall announce His second coming,  << Gabriel does this.>>  so You must be a mighty man or a mighty Angel. I want to ask You in all of God's treasures, what is the greatest thing that You have found among His treasures?"
I can see Gabriel bring himself to attention, and say, "The greatest thing that I have found in God's treasures since He created Me is Life. God made Me to live for eternal, for eternity. And Life is the greatest thing that there is."

 

>> Another quote making it clear He comes to the Jews at this second coming >>

 

BREACH.THE_  JEFF.IN  SUNDAY_  63-0317E

  72-1  {29}    This seven-sealed Book is revealed at the time of the Seven Thunders of Revelations 10. If you're marking it down... Let's turn to Revelations 10 just a moment, so you'll get a understanding before we get into it. Now, this is at the end time, for listen.

... I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow... upon his head,...

If you notice that's Christ (See?), 'cause He in the Old Testament was called the Angel of the Covenant, and He's directly coming to the Jews now, for the Church is finished. See? All right.

... and his face... as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:

You remember that Angel in Revelations 1? Same thing. Angel is a messenger, and He's a Messenger to Israel. See? The Church has been raptured. See? Now, or fixing to be raptured. He comes for His Church.

>>He comes to the Jews after the church ages are over and the church is fixing to be

 

>>He tTook the book containing our names in His second coming.<<

Scripture:

 

EPHESIANS 1:4

4         According as he hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love:

 

REVELATION 13:8

8         And all that dwell upon the earth shall worship him, whose names are not written in the book of life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world.

 

>>Bro Branham said we (the Bride) were in the mind of God eternally.  God never had any new thoughts.  By election, our names were put in the book of Life in God’s mind before the world was made.  But because of the sin of Adam and Eve in the garden of Eden, the book was forfeited to satan, the devil.  At Calvary on the cross, Jesus paid the price and bought back the book from the devil. Now, as He leaves the throne of intercession,  the book containing all the names of the redeemed is to be opened by the Lamb (now claiming His Bride for the marriage) ..John saw this and rejoiced!!<<

 

Quote of the prophet:

 

PROVING.HIS.WORD_  LA.CA  V-18 N-3  MONDAY_  65-0426

…And Jesus came to--to redeem those that were in the Book. In the Bible, the Lamb came from behind the curtain, and taken the Book, and opened the seals that It was sealed with, for He came to claim all He had redeemed….

>>He left the throne of intercession and took the book when the seals were opened<<

 

FIRST.SEAL.THE_  JEFF.IN  MONDAY_  63-0318

  125-5  {58}    I'm going to drop a little something in here. (>>He knew this would not be accepted by most.<<) Now, if anybody gets these tapes... Any man can speak whatever he wants to. He has a right to--to anything of his conviction. But if, you know, if a minister doesn't want this amongst his people, then tell them not to take it. But I--I... This is amongst the people that I have been sent to speak to; therefore, I must reveal what is the Truth. See?

 

  125-6  {59}    Now, the Lamb in the time of intercessory back here, He knew that there were names in there that was put in there from the foundation of the world, and as long as them names have never been manifested on earth as yet, He had to stay there as Intercessor. Do you get it? Perfectly predestination... See?

All right, He had to stay there, because He came to die for those that God had ordained to Eternal Life. See, see? By His foreknowledge He saw them, not by His own will. His will was that none should perish, but by His foreknowledge He knew who would and who would not.

Therefore as long as there was one name hadn't never yet been clared--declared in earth, Christ had to stay there as an Intercessor to take care of that name. But as soon as that final name had been splashed in that Clorox or bleach, then His intercessory days was over. "Let him that's filthy be filthy still. Let him that's holy, he's holy still." See? And he leaves the sanctuary, and then it becomes a judgment seat. Woe unto those outside of Christ then.

 

  126-3  {61}    Now, notice: But it's to be revealed when the Lamb leaves His intercessory place from the Father. (Now, that's Revelation 5). Now, He takes the Book of Seals, the Book of Seals or a Book sealed with Seals, breaks them and shows them (look) at the end of the age now, after the intercessory is over; the church ages has done finished up

 

>>This is where many message believers get confused.  There were no names missing from the book when He took it.  Even those that had not been born on earth yet, their names were also there.  When he took the book and claimed His own, it is finished,, regardless if they have been born on the earth or not<<

 

STANDING.IN.THE.GAP_  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-7  SUNDAY_  63-0623M
  80    Well, it happens to be that at least one man is present this morning who was standing there when it happened. It actually shook the rocks off of the mountain. And now, they... We find out that during that time I saw seven Angels in a--in a form of a pyramid that swept down and picked me up. And I was brought east to open the Seven Seals for God  (>>when this happened (the seals opened), the book was also opened<<)

 

PROVING.HIS.WORD_  LA.CA  V-18 N-3  MONDAY_  65-0426

…All whose name was written on the Lamb's Book of Life, is redeemed.

 

BREACH.THE_  JEFF.IN  SUNDAY_  63-0317E

  72-4  {32}    Now, watch.

And he had in his hand a little book open:...

Now, here it was closed here, and sealed, and here it's open; it's been opened. Since that time of the sealing we're getting into tonight, now the Book's opened. A little Book in His hand--in His... It was opened. Oh, how... The sun as pillars... Wait just a minute, let me start back here reading.

And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot upon the earth,

And he cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth:... (We know He is the Lion of the tribe of Juda. Over here He's a Lamb, but here He's a Lion. See?)... and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.

>>Now the book of redemption  is open, as the seals were opened<<

 

  98-4  {203}    He was the only Man that was worthy. Here He come from the intercessory box. What's He coming for now? Watch Him. Oh, my.

John was weeping. Where's it all at? What's going to happen?

Said, "Don't weep, John," said the elder, "here comes the Lion. He was the One prevailed."

And when he looked, here come a Lamb, bloody, that'd been slain. Anything that's killed is bloody, you know, been killed; its neck's been chopped open or something; the blood's all over it. Here come a Lamb, been slain. And He came forth. Oh, my. What? To make His claims on His redemption. Amen. Oh, I... Don't you just feel like just going over in a corner and set down and cry awhile?

 

  98-8  {208}    Here come a Lamb, still bloody. John... There wasn't nothing there, all the celebrity was standing around, but there was none of them could do it. So here come the Lamb now. His intercessory days is over, the mediatorial days. That's when this Angel's going to stand there (You wait till we get in the Seals.) and time shall be no more. That's right.

 

>> A lot of repetition, but it must be made clear.  The book was opened at this coming.  He left the throne of intercession (regardless of what we think), and came to claim His own. Then the seals were opened after He left the throne, as the voice commanded when the cloud of angels appeared in 1963<<

 

Scripture

 

REVELATION 5:1

  1       And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book  written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.

 >>notice it was sealed with 7 seals - this is the same Lambs book of Life as mentioned above<)

 

  2    And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?

 

  3    And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.

 

  4    And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.

 

  5    And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.   >>when the seals were loosed or opened the book was also opened<)

 

  6       And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.

 

  7    And he came and took the book (>>same book..book of Life<<) out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.

  8    And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four [and] twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.

 

  9    And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation; (>>who opened the seals?, The Lamb<<)

 

  10    And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.

 

REVELATION 10:1

  1       And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow [was] upon his head, and his face [was] as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:  >>this happened in 1963 when the cloud of holy angel came down<<

 

  2    And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and [his] left [foot] on the earth, (>> same book – Lambs book of life – now it is open<<)

 

  3    And cried with a loud voice, as [when] a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices. (>>1963 when the cloud of  holy angels came down<<)

 

  4    And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not. (>> sealed until 1963 when they would be revealed<<)

 

  5    And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,

 

  6    And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:

(>>church ages are over – no more time in that age<<

 

MIGHTY.GOD.UNVEILED_  PHIL.PA  V-3 N-22  MONDAY_  64-0629

  24-2    And that's what's the matter today, my Lutheran brethren, my Baptist brethren, my Pentecostal brethren, all my brethren from all different denominations; that's what it is. See? You're trying to give a note that hit back in the days of Luther, or Wesley, like that, when the--actually the Music Sheet here shows that it's another day. See, see? We can't live in the light of Luther; he was a reformer. We appreciate his--his part, but we played that out. We're way over here at the back of the Book now. See? We can't--we can't play it out like that.

 

HE.THAT.IS.IN.YOU_  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-12  SUNDAY_  63-1110E

  24    Now there it is, scientifically, proof that it is the truth. So therefore we--we don't worry about whether it's truth. Both scientifically and spiritually, and what was said come to pass. So the message of the Seven Seals, in their closing, that's the message of the entire Bible. The Seven Seals closes the New Testament and sealed it up, that is true. Now, we know that that is by prophetic utterance, by scientific, and by the Word. Three has give the witness to it, that it's the truth.

(>> Why do you continue to practice rituals and ordnances of the 7 church ages, if the New Testament is closed and sealed?  The Old Testament sacrifices ceased when Jesus walked upon the earth at His first coming.  As the prophet already stated, the Old Testament was closed at this time.<<)

 Quote> …No more than Moses' law would've worked in the time of Paul, here. He tried to tell them, "You're dead to that. And you cannot have that."

 

INVISIBLE.UNION.OF.THE.BRIDE_  SHP.LA  V-2 N-15  THURSDAY_  65-1125

… omitted,,. And we're ready for the coming of the Lord. The thing to do is separate yourself from all sin. Separate yourself from anything that pertains to the world. Don't love the world or the things of the world. Let no man, by his creed, deceive you. You stay right straight in the promise of God, the Word of God; and that Word, if It's the Word, for this day, God vindicates It so. If He doesn't, it's not the Word for this day. The Word that fell on the day of Pentecost will not work this day. No, sir, that was for Pentecost. This is for the Bride: going home of the Bride. We got something different. The Pentecostals represented that again. We're in the Bride age.  No more than the Word of Noah would worked in the days of Moses. No more than Moses' law would've worked in the time of Paul, here. He tried to tell them, "You're dead to that. And you cannot have that." 

>> We are in the eighth day, not 7 church ages <<

 

REVELATION 10:7

  7    But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, (>> William Marian Branham<<) when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.

 

 

FIRST.SEAL.THE_  JEFF.IN  MONDAY_  63-0318

  146-3  {196}    Let me just read it again. It sounds so good to me; I--I like to read it.

... I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud:... a rainbow... upon his head, and his face was... the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:

Now, we saw the same thing, which was Christ. And we know Christ is always the Messenger to the Church. All right. He's called a Pillar of Fire, the Angel of the covenant and so forth.

And he had in his hand a little book opened:... (Now, the Seals had done been broke here. We're breaking them now; but this, the thing's opened.)... and he set his right foot on the sea, and his left... on the earth,

And he cried... a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he... cried, seven thunders uttered their voices... (My, the complete)

... when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I... (John)... was about to write:... (Write what? What they said.)...  and I heard a voice from heaven... (God)... saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not. (Don't write them. See?)

And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea... lifted up his hands to heaven,

And sware by him that lives for ever and ever, who created the heavens, and the things... in there they are, and the earth, and the things that are there--in there..., and the sea and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:   

>> No more church ages , they are finished <<

 

FIRST.SEAL.THE_  JEFF.IN  MONDAY_  63-0318

  147-1  {199}    Watch. Don't forget this now, as we go.

But in the days... (days)... of the voice of the seventh angel,... (That last angel, earthly angel.)

This Angel come down from heaven. Wasn't Him. He come from heaven, but He's speaking here the voice of the seventh angel. Which is a "angel" means "a messenger." Anybody knows that. And the messenger to the church age...

... in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery... (Seven Seals, all--all the mysteries)... of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.

 >>same man (bro Branham), Christ (Jesus) just came down and went into the vessel of bro Branham and is just speaking with his voice, or vocal cords – Same thing on Jorden <<

 

WHY.IT.HAD.TO.BE.SHEPHERDS_  TUCSON.AZ  V-6 N-15  MONDAY_  64-1221

  200    They said, "John, how did you know it? I didn't see one thing different."

"But I bear record; I saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove, and a Voice saying, 'This is My Beloved Son in Whom I am pleased to dwell in.'"

Watch the Dove and the Lamb. See? Yeah. What if it'd been a... What if it had been something... What if it had been a wolf standing there? Well, that Lamb could not have went upon--or that Dove... God symbolized Himself with a dove, the most meekest of all the birds of the heaven, His Son by a sheep, the most meekest of all the animals on earth. See, the clean bird of the heavens, not a crow, not a vulture, but a dove; not a pig, but a lamb. Any other nature wouldn't have blended together.

 

 

BREACH.THE_  JEFF.IN  SUNDAY_  63-0317E  (repeat)

... And when the Seals are broke and the mystery is revealed, down comes the Angel, the Messenger, Christ, setting His foot upon the land and upon the sea with a rainbow over His head. Now remember, this seventh angel is on earth at the time of this coming.

 

>>What does He do at this second coming, after He has took the book and claimed His own?   Some sigh we can look for to see if this has happened.  1) He is to bring Judgement.  2) He is to unite with the Bride.  3)  We enter into the wedding supper.  4) We enter into the raptire <<

 

>>  Comes in Judgement…Remember,  Jesus stopped in the middle of the sentence?  The judgment portion was for His second coming, as stated in previous quotes…  This is it below.<<

 

WHAT.IS.THE.ATTRACTION?_  JEFF.IN  V-8 N-8  SUNDAY_  65-0725E

  106    Notice the Scripture so accurately gives it. Watch what this... to show the... them who wants to believe, them who wants to see. Remember Jesus stopped in the middle of a Scripture, 'cause part of it was fulfilled then, the rest for His Second Coming? "To preach the acceptable year of the Lord, bind up the brokenhearted," and stopped; not "bring judgment to the Gentile" until His Second Coming.

 

ANOINTED.ONES.AT.END.TIME_  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-3  SUNDAY_  65-0725M

And every word (Hallelujah.) that was wrote of that Messiah was fulfilled to the letter. Even till one day reading the Scriptures, He stopped right in the middle of the sentence, said, "The Spirit of God is upon Me to preach the Gospel and deliver the..." And stopped right there in the middle of the sentence, because the rest of it's at His second coming. Amen. "Heavens and earth will pass away; My Word shall not." See?

 

THIS.DAY.THIS.SCRIPTURE_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-8  FRIDAY_  65-0219

The second coming He will bring judgment upon the earth, but not then. He was to preach the acceptable year.

 

>>He came as Judge to bring judgement.  Speaking of the cloud again<<

RISING.OF.THE.SUN_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-12  SUNDAY_  65-0418M

  3-2    Well, if you'll turn the picture like this and look (and you can probably see it from the audience), it's Christ. See His eyes looking here just as perfect as it could be, wearing the white wig of supreme Deity and Judge of all heavens and earth? Can you see His eyes, nose, His mouth? Just turn the picture from this (the way they had it), this a-way, the way it's supposed to be. And you... Can you see it? He is supreme Judge; there's none other but Him. And that is a perfect identification again, a vindication that this Message is the truth. It is true. And making Him, not a third person, but the only Person with the white...

See, you see the dark, His face, His beard, and His eyes? And notice, He's looking; from Him comes this Light shining on the right-hand side to which He's looking to. And on the cross that's where He looked, to the right, where He pardoned the sinner. In the light of His resurrection we still go forth in His Name.

 

>>How about the whirlwind and the voice when Alaska almost sunk?  The beginning of Judgment, the prophet said.  Is judgment abounding upon the earth now?<<

 

THIS.DAY.THIS.SCRIPTURE_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-8  FRIDAY_  65-0219

  23-4    Last year standing in the same place (Mr. Wood here and I), going up the hill in the--kind of mourning about his wife being sick, the Holy Spirit said, "Pick up a rock laying there; throw it up in the air; when it comes down say, 'THUS SAITH THE LORD, there'll be judgment strike the earth. Tell him that he will see the hand of God in the next few hours.'"

I told Mr. Wood (that's present tonight) and I guess eight or ten of the men--or fifteen that was there at that time, when it took place the next morning, where the Lord came down in a whirlwind and ripped the mountain out around us, and cut the tops of the trees loose, and made three blasts and said, "Judgment is heading towards the west coast."

Two days after that Alaska almost sunk beneath the earth. And since then up and down the coast the belches of God's judgment against that spiritual screen.

 

>>Are we NOW united, as husband and wife?<<

 

UNITING.TIME.AND.SIGN_  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-10  SUNDAY_  63-0818

  98    Jesus said, "If ye abide in Me and My Word in you, then ask what you will, it shall be done unto you." Uniting the Bride back with the Word, which is God. The Church and the Word, not Church and the creed, Church and the Word; the Bride and the Word united together... Oh, my. What a... Restore back what? The faith of the original Pentecostal fathers…

 

  113    But the Church, the Bride, is united by one God, under one Spirit, the Spirit of God, in one holy union of God to be one holy Bride to God (That's right.), all together unity of the Body. The Body waiting as a Bride; as--as it is the Bride, as we call ourselves the Bride... For the uniting time of the Bride, the Church is so coming together. It should create such a love among us that we could hardly be away from one another. That's right. We just... See, you don't have to beg people to pray; you don't have to beg them to worship God; you don't have to beg them to do what's right. They're just so in love with Him, till there's nothing else.

 

WHAT.SHALL.I.DO.WITH.JESUS_  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-6  SUNDAY_  63-1124M

  131    Notice, God's daughter, the church, the Bride, is also a product of God and His Word uniting, the Holy Spirit uniting in a body of flesh; It produced the Son of God, a product of the righteousness of God. And in the last day as we're told, as it was in the days of Sodom, the Bride will be united by the Word of God made manifest in the flesh, a Holy Spirit sealing them into God and sealing unbelief out on the outside.

 

  134    God's Body united as His Bride, being One... Him and Christ together, as the Spirit working in the flesh of the church like It worked in the flesh of Jesus Christ, 'cause It's part of His Body, not twain, but One. They are One. A husband and wife's no longer two, but one. And Christ and His Body is One. And the same Spirit was in Christ is in His Bride, in His Body, that unites them together with all the Word. And God living in there Himself manifested.

 

CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-7  SUNDAY_  63-0728

  58-3    But God's great mystery, what the eternal God had as a mystery, has now been unfolded in Jesus Christ, then was given out down to His Church. What was once in God's mind is now in the Body of Christ, Jesus making love to the Church, His Bride, whispering secrets to Her. You know how you tell your wife things, you know, the little girl you're going to marry. You love her so much, you just tell her the secrets, and get her up next to you, and love you and everything. You know how it is? That's what God--Christ is doing to the Church. See? He's letting Her know the secrets--just the secrets. Not these flirters; I mean His Wife. See? All right. Now, look. No.

 

GOD.OF.THIS.EVIL.AGE_  JEFF.IN  V-4 N-9  SUNDAY_  65-0801M

  158    Also notice, Christ's Word Bride is heading up also as we see where the antichrist is heading. Begin back there and now coming to a head, a ecumenical council will put it to a ecclesiastical head. And the little church that's come along also, Christ's Word Bride down through the age, is coming to a head, 'cause It's going to be united back to It's Mate. Always, just like the church and everything else has got to unite. The wheat, everything else comes right back to it's head where it started from, like Cain and Abel. Word Bride heading up in the Person of the Word of God made manifest in this evil age that we're living. See where it's heading up?

 

SPOKEN.WORD.ORIGINAL.SEED_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-2  SUNDAY_  62-0318E

  119-4    All right. Now, here is what I'm trying to say to you: The law of reproduction bring forth of its kind (Genesis 1:11). These last days, true church Bride comes to the Headstone, will be the super church, a super race. As they near the great Headstone they will be much like--so much like Him, even they will be in His very image in the order to be united with Him. They will be One. They will be the very manifestation of the Word of the living God. Denominations can never produce this. This will be... They will produce their creeds and dogmas mixed with the Word and--and brings a hybrid product.

 

CHURCH AGE BOOK  (>>extracted from Spoken Word is Original seed. A repeat<<)

Whatever seed started the church will come forth and be like the original seed because it is the same seed. In these last days the true Bride Church (Christ's seed) will come to the Headstone, and she will be the super church, a super race, as she nears Him. They in the bride will be so much like Him that they will even be in His very image. This is in order to be united with Him. They will be one. They will be the very manifestation of the Word of the living God. Denominations cannot produce this (wrong seed). They will produce their creeds and their dogmas, mixed with the Word. This mongrelizing brings forth a hybrid product.

 

MAN.THAT.CAN.TURN.ON.LIGHT_  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-1  SUNDAY_  63-1229M

  162    Yesterday's, Luther's manna would not work for Methodists. Methodist manna would not work for Pentecost. Pentecostal manna will not work for today. See what I mean? Every day it come day by day, fresh, and so has it to the church ages. Luther's manna was the message of justification. Wesley's message was the manifestation of sanctification; Pentecostal was the restoration of the gifts. But this is introducing the Headstone, the last day, the Bride Tree. It's contrary to all of it.

>>Again, Pentecostal manna will not work for this day, we go something different, going on to perfection<<

 

CHRIST.REVEALED.IN.HIS.OWN.WORD_  JEFF.IN  V-4 N-10  SUNDAY_  65-0822M

… omitted …Then He started rising (See?), and from the feet He begin to build the church, the Bride, coming back, on back, and now coming out into the Headstone, where it all joins together and makes the one great transfigured Body of Jesus Christ.

>>No room for he foolish virgins to be injected into this,, he says ALL joins together<<

 

VOICE.OF.THE.SIGN_  DENHAM.SP.LA  SATURDAY_  64-0321E

  E-79    Now, if the Lord Jesus Christ, the Son of God, Who I have proven by the Bible promised that He would return in the last days and reveal Hisself in the fullness of His Spirit, just like the church coming up, like it comes from a human being, all the way from the feet, comes up to thighs, up to the Head, and the Head is the head of the body. And the body's come up ever since the first church, come right on up in this--in the reformation it's come up to now, it's come through justification, sanctification, baptism of the Holy Ghost. Now's the Head, Christ, coming to the body, the body of Christ.

 

WHAT.SHALL.I.DO.WITH.JESUS_  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-6  SUNDAY_  63-1124M

  116    Their big church is to be united... The Dynamics of this church will be a refilling of the Holy Spirit, that we have worked in a small measure while the Headstone is coming down to unite with the Body. But when that Head and Body unites together the full power of the Holy Ghost would raise Her up  just exactly like... Even the dead, that's dead in Christ for hundreds of years ago, will rise in the beauty of His holiness and take a flight through the skies.

 

>>> Why they miss  His second coming <<

 

THE.MESSIAH_  SHREVEPORT.LA  TUESDAY_  61-0117

  E-42    Oh, my. What happened? When he come, there was an old fuzzy-faced guy coming out of the wilderness, piece of sheepskin wrapped around him, probably never took a bath every three months, walking out there, standing in mud up to his knees, and said, "Repent, for the Kingdom of heaven is at hand." That's when the mountains skipped like little rams. That's when the leaves clapped their hands. That's when the high places was made low and the low places made high.

What man calls great, God calls foolish.

 

FOURTH.SEAL.THE_  JEFF.IN  THURSDAY_  63-0321

  308-5  {210}    Watch Christ. First coming, He come a mortal to bleed and die. Is that right? That's His first coming. The second coming is the rapture. We meet Him in the skies, immortal. His third coming, He's the incarnate God (Amen. Yeah.), God Emmanuel to reign on earth. That's right. Only three...

>>without argument, the second coming IS the rapture<<

 

JESUS.CHRIST.THE.SAME_  TUCSON.AZ  TUESDAY_  63-0604

Now, we know that He only comes and identifies Himself to those who are looking for Him. And that's the way it'll be at His second coming.  The world will know nothing about Him. He'll just come take His church and be gone. And those who are not looking for Him will be left behind. He's only coming to those who are looking for Him.

 >>a secret coming – rapture<<

 

GOD.IN.SIMPLICITY_  JEFF.IN  SUNDAY_  63-0317M

   42-1  {267}    And yet He was so simple till those great scholars had got it so mixed up, till they missed it. But you know Jesus didn't come contrary to the Word; He come according to the Word, but contrary to their interpretation. See? He taught things that was against their ecclesiastical training about Him.

 

  43-2  {273}    Oh, my. That hit their polish too hard. See? Their educational ethics could not swallow that. Their interpretation of the Scriptures knowed nothing about that, but yet it was the THUS SAITH THE LORD. Oh, my. Shivers me to think it. And to see the same thing reoccurring again... God cannot change.                                                                                                                                 

 

56-6  {366}    And the disciples...  (>> followers of the message <<) Now, think of it, disciples who had walked with John, talked with him, eat with him in the wilderness, set down on the bank, they said, "Why does the teachers(>> preachers of the message <<)  say that Elias must first come? You say you're going up to the crucifixion and going to rise; you're the Messiah, take the throne. Now, why does the scribes... All of our Scriptures say here--the Scriptures plainly says that before the Christ shall come, that Elias will come first." See?

 

  57-1  {368}    I'm going to hurt here in just a little bit now, but I don't mean it. See? For the next few minutes (See?), just a minute too; but so that you'll be sure to understand. Look: Why... Them men who'd walked with Christ, "Why does the Scriptures first say that Elias must come," and they were John's own converts and didn't even know him. Why did the Scriptures say, the teachers? (>> preachers of the message <<) Can you see what I mean? "Why does the Scriptures say that Elias must first come?" Disciples that walked with him. (>> followers of the message <<)  "Why does the Scriptures say that he must first come before these things and restore all things?" He did to about a half dozen people, and that's all there was. See? That's all that was supposed to receive it. That was what was ordained to see it.

 

  57-2  {370}    Jesus said, "He's already come, and you didn't know it. But he done just what the Scriptures said he would do. He restored them, you all, that received Me and believed on Me. He done exactly what the Scriptures said he'd do. And they did to him what the Scriptures said they would do. He's already come, and you didn't know it." Are you ready?

I want to shock you a little bit. The rapture will be the same way. It'll be so simple; no doubt it'll be likewise, till the rapture will come one of these days and nobody will know nothing about it.  

 

  57-4  {371}    Now, don't get up now, but study just a minute. I'm sure enough closing. The rapture will come in such a simple way till the judgments will fall, and they'll see the Son of man; they'll say, "Wasn't we supposed to have such-and-such... And wasn't there supposed to be Elias sent to us? And wasn't there supposed to be a rapture?" Jesus will say, "It's already happened, and you didn't know it." God in simplicity... See?      

 

LORD.JUST.ONCE.MORE_  HOT.SPRINGS.AR  V-20 N-10  FRIDAY_  63-0628A

  206    You know, one time Jesus was asked a question. He said, "Why does the scribes say that Elias must first come?"

And Jesus said, "I say unto you, He's already come and you didn't know it."

One of these days you're going to say, "Well, I thought the Church was going, had to do this, that, and the other. I thought there'd be a rapture. (>> secret coming <<) I thought..."

See, it'll be a secret catching away. If He took one here in Hot Springs, and one somewhere else, and one down there, one there, will make up literally millions of those that come up out of the ground. And there's at least five hundred people, every day missed in the world, and we don't even know where they went to. See, the rapture's going to make up of all those who sleep in the dust of the earth, that's right with God.

They'll say, "Well, I thought a rapture's take place."

"It's already passed, and you knew it not. You're left." See?

"Well, everything's going..." Yes, sir.

It's a secret coming, the rapture is, comes to steal away. Like that book I read that time of (What was it?), Juliet and Romeo. He come at nighttime, when the people were sleeping in worldliness, and the church all in worldliness. And all of a sudden, the cry (>>shout<<) come, and away they went.

 

>> Notice the scripture in Revelation Chapter 3:3, just before the catching away, chapter 4.  Here he is speaking to the ‘escaped’ church, Sardis.  Could this be a type as in other church ages?  Escaping the denominational system, but missing His coming. <<

 

REVELATION 3:4

  3    Remember therefore how thou hast received and heard, and hold fast, and repent. If therefore thou shalt not watch, I will come on thee as a thief, and thou shalt not know what hour I will come upon thee.

 

>> Another quote, where they missed Him. <<

 

PRESENCE.OF.GOD.UNRECOGNIZED_  TOPEKA.KS  V-20 N-2  THURSDAY_  64-0618

  38    One day the disciples asked Him, said, "Why did the Scribes say that Elias must first come?" Jesus said, "He's already come and you didn't know it," and they understood that it was John the Baptist. Those elected apostles still couldn't see who he was. That was the Elijah.

Now, look. You know, the--the coming of the Lord's going to be a secret coming. He said, "There'll be two in the bed, and I'll take one and leave one (That's where the--the night is.), two in the field, I'll take one and leave one."

You know, there's so many people disappear every day off the face of the earth that nobody can account for. One of these days it might be that people might say, "Well, you mean the tribulation, the thing's on us now? I thought the Church was to go before the tribulation." They don't realize and understand that the rapture could take place and they'd know nothing about it; it's the secret going of the Church.

 

  41    And, think, people will go right on preaching, saying they believe they're getting saved, and adding in the church, and building churches, and going on just like they did in the days of Noah, and so forth, and not know it; and the rapture done past, "It's already happened and you didn't know it." There's hundreds of people disappear from the earth and people know nothing about where they went to; they can't account for it; somebody was going somewhere, they never hear from them no more. And that could be the rapture.

 

>>When does this rapture take place?  After the tares are bound.. Have the tares been bound? At the second coming and BEFORE the revealing of the antichrist.  Has the antichrist been revealed? Then the rapture is on<<

 

CHURCH AGE BOOK

…But once the tares are bound the rapture can take place and does so at some time between the binding and the revelation of antichrist.

 

SPOKEN.WORD.ORIGINAL.SEED_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-2  SUNDAY_  62-0318E

  123-1    Remember, the tares, the weeds, are to be gathered and bound in bundles. Is that right? This has come to pass. The apostate organization churches is bound tighter than they ever was bound. They are bundled together in the federation of churches, ready for the fires of God's judgment.

 

FIRST.SEAL.THE_  JEFF.IN  MONDAY_  63-0318

  130-1  {87}    For the mystery of iniquity doth already work:... (deceivers, you see, deceiving the people off into something. See?)... only he... (God)... that... letteth will let, until he... (the Church--Christ, the Bride)... be taken out of the way.

And then shall the Wicked one be revealed... (at the breaking of the Seal, at his time. Paul said, "Not in my time, but in the time when he'll be revealed. See?)... whom the Lord shall consume with the spirit of his mouth... (We're going to get to that after while.)... the spirit of his mouth... (Watch what that is.)... and shall destroy with the brightness of his coming:

 And when--then when--shall that Wicked one be revealed,... (When? Just at the time the Holy Ghost is being taken out, which is fixing to leave right now. What's He leaving for? Taking the Church with Him.)... revealed...

SIGN.OF.THIS.TIME_  NY.NY  V-18 N-8  WEDNESDAY_  63-1113

Now, this last great step must come into the perfection, that the Holy Spirit has to live in that Church so perfectly, it'll make the Head and the Body unite together. See, see? That's the Body. He is the Head in the Body. Now, we find that He promised in these last days, that that would be done. We find it.

 

MARRIAGE.OF.THE.LAMB_  PHOENIX.AZ  SUNDAY_  62-0121E

  E-97    Oh, how that would do for a real Christian to get away from the things of the world. And someday you talk about coming into the port on the wings of a dove; He's coming for a bride, one that don't fool with the world or the things of the world. She's washed in the Blood of the Lamb. She's pledged her--her love to Him only. The love of the world is gone and dead to her. The marriage of the Lamb has come, and His bride has made herself ready.

 

WHY.AGAINST.ORGANIZED.RELIGION_  JEFF.IN  V-12 N-1  SUNDAY_  62-1111E

  220    Notice, the 19th chapter is the next, "After these things..." Did you notice here in the 19th chapter, "After these things..."? Watch what? After what? After the message of come out of her. After these things (Watch.) is the shout of the Bride saints with the Bridegroom, going to the marriage of the Lamb. How close are we then, brother? What's the last call? Come out of Babylon.

 

CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-7  SUNDAY_  63-0728

  30-2    And to be sure that the whole Rapture now... Luther was a part; Wesley was a part; the prophets was a part. If they aren't a part... just in the revelation that they was making up the Body: feet, toes, arms and so forth until the Head (which we get to that in a few minutes, see?) that makes the entire rapture. It's the Body of the Word, which is Christ. Amen. Outside of that, you're lost. I don't care how good you are, or what your relationship is, or what your fellowship is, or what your organization is; you're lost outside of that Word being in you.

 

  86-1    And then the Word moves on down into the Body from the Head. What is it? This same word. Nothing can be added or taken from It. So that same Word moves from the Head as the day comes close, down into the Body, down into the Body vindicating that they are One. They're Husband and Wife. They're flesh of His flesh, Word of His Word, Life of His Life, Spirit of His Spirit. See? Amen. How do you know it? Bears the same record, same fruit, same Word (See?), manifests Christ: same Life, same God, same Spirit, same Word, same Book (Amen!), same signs, "Things that I do shall you also." Oh hallelujah.

 

DOOR.IN.A.DOOR_  TUCSON.AZ  SATURDAY_  63-0223

But remember, there is coming a time where we'll meet again at, not at a--not at a breakfast, but at a supper, oh, where the great banquet of God, and the marriage of the Lamb, and the great chairs are stretched from sky to sky, and the redeemed of all ages set across the table from one another. That'll be a glorious time. I'm looking for that.

 

PROVING.HIS.WORD_  JEFF.IN  V-9 N-6  SUNDAY_  64-0816

See, it's Son of man, Jesus Christ, will come down in human flesh among us, and will make His Word so real that it'll unite the Church and Him as one, the Bride, and then she'll go Home to the wedding supper. Amen. She's already united (See?); we go to the wedding supper, not to the marriage. "Fill your flesh... self, of all the flesh of mighty men, 'cause the marriage of the Lamb has come." But the rapture is going to the wedding supper. When the Word here unites with the person, and they two become one, and then what does it do then? It manifests the Son of man again, not the church theologians, the Son of man. The Word and the Church becomes one. Whatever the Son of man done, He was the Word, the Church does the same thing.

 

>> if we are now in the rapture, then we are now in the wedding supper, simple!  That is what he said<<

 

UNVEILING.OF.GOD_  JEFF.IN  V-9 N-1  SUNDAY_  64-0614M

  341   (omitted..) We're on the other side now, on the other side. And you will see, if you'll just do that, break those old traditions and things and come to Him, you'll see Him standing the Mighty Conqueror, the Word of promise for this age made manifest. You'll see the mighty God unveiled, see Him right among us here, unveiled, the mighty God, unconquered by traditions. (>> What happens on the other side? Communion!, wedding supper!, among other thins <<)

 

CHURCH AGE BOOK

….The Great Shepherd is calling His sheep by name. The creative voice of God is calling them forth from the dust or changing their atoms even though they had not fallen asleep.  (<< unravel that one>>)  It is the rapture. It is the great Marriage Supper of the Lamb and His bride.

 

INFLUENCE_  NY.NY  V-18 N-9  THURSDAY_  63-1114

  208    This is in uniting time. There's a United Nation, united church, and united effort. What's it a sign of? Christ and His Bride uniting. That's what it is. It's all shadows and types. Everything wants to be unionized, so it's a sign. Christ is fixing to unite with His Bride, a wedding supper taking place in the sky, so it ought to throw the church into action when we see the signs of His here at hand. Oh, my. All these things are signs to us, everywhere. Oh...?... we should be in action.

 

HOW.CAN.I.OVERCOME_  JEFF.IN  V-4 N-12  SUNDAY_  63-0825M

  183    …omitted..

... And, Lord, we believe that we'll go when He sounds the trumpet We believe it, that the Bride will go forth at that day, and will join with the--the Hebrew group of It, and together there'll be a wedding supper in glory.  .

>> What trumpet?  Same trumpet He sounds while He is descending<<

 

UNVEILING.OF.GOD_  JEFF.IN  V-9 N-1  SUNDAY_  64-0614M

  359    So will it be sometime when the trumpet of the Lord shall be sounded out, (>> same trumpet<<) time shall be no more. Those who have been looked at and made fun of, that stood there before the open veil and seen the Word of God manifested... Others will scream for It, but as You said, "It'll be too late then." They went into the wedding supper, and they were left out where there's weeping, wailing, and gnashing of teeth.

 

>> * This is a repeat quote, tying the wedding supper to the shout or descending of Christ, notice.. This is the same trumpet calling Israel (Jews) to their feast of trumpets, while He is descending with the message <<

 

* RAPTURE.THE_  YUMA.AZ  V-5 N-14  SATURDAY_  65-1204

 164    Therefore, the Message calls the Bride together. See? The shout and the trumpet, the same morning with a loud voice He screamed out with that shout, and--and voice and woke Lazarus. With a loud voice He cried, "Lazarus, come forth." See? And the voice wakes up--wakes up the sleeping Bride, the sleeping dead.  And the trumpet, with the sound of the trumpet, and when it does, it calls... Always a trumpet called Israel to the Feast of the Trumpets (See?), which was the Pentecostal feast, the great feast in the sky and the Feast of the Trumpets... And now, a trumpet denounced a calling together, calling to the feast. And now that is the--the Lamb's supper in the sky (Now, watch.,)--the assembling together in the Bride, the Feast of the Trumpets, the Wedding Supper.

We have seen it in types. Now, watch just a moment before we close.

 

>> Melchisedec is NOW serving us communion <<.

 

COMMUNION_  TUCSON.AZ  V-8 N-4  SUNDAY_  65-1212

Take and eat, this do in remembrance of Me. For as often as you take this bread, you show forth His death till He comes. 

>>Are we yet convince, he has come?  Then the symbols and rituals are of non effect.  Don’t forget,  He comes after the church ages are closed.<<

 

QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS_  JEFF.IN  COD  SUNDAY_  59-0628E

See? It's a communion. I do realize and do agree that the--the body of the Lord, the living Word is Christ Himself. But these are symbols just like baptism, and footwash, and other ordinances of the church. But communion is absolutely essential for the bread, now, bread and wine.

>>The bread of Life (every Word that proceeds out of the mouth of God) and wine of stimulation of revelation<<

 

WHO.IS.THIS.MELCHISEDEC_  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-10  SUNDAY_  65-0221E

…But Melchisedec after His child Abraham had won the victory, Melchisedec met him and gave him wine and bread, showing that after this earthly battle is over, we will meet Him in the heavens and take the Communion again; it'll be the wedding supper. (>>When do we take communion? At the wedding supper.  Who serves it?  Melchisedec. What does He  serve?  Bread and Wine<<)

 

Has He come? Are we now outside the church ages? Are we in the 8th day? Are we married to Christ?  Are we in the Wedding Supper of the rapture?  If so, then  what about the ordnances? Water Baptism & Communion.

 

COMMUNION_  TUCSON.AZ  V-8 N-4  SUNDAY_  65-1212

  69    Neither do I believe that the baptism of Jesus Christ, in the Name of Jesus Christ, in water does forgive your sins. I do not believe that you... I believe you could be baptized all day long... Now, I know that there's perhaps people setting here who come from the Apostolic church, I mean, or the United Pentecostal church, which they teach that. But, you see, I--I do not believe that the water forgives sins. Or if it was, then Jesus died in vain. See? I believe that it's only an ordinance of God (See?) to show that you have been forgiven. But to be baptized for regeneration, no, I--I--I don't believe that. I don't believe that water forgives sins.

Neither do I believe that this bread and wine has anything to do with you, only keeping an ordinance that God has ordained for us to do. See? That's right. I believe water baptism is the same thing. I believe it's compelling to us to do it, that He done it all for our example. And He done this for our example. And He washed feet for our example.

 

COMMUNION_  TUCSON.AZ  V-8 N-4  SUNDAY_  65-1212

  71    Now...

After the same manner also,... (25th verse)... After the same manner also he took the cup, and when he had supped, saying, This cup is the new testament in my blood: this do ye, as oft as you drink it, in remembrance of me.

For as oft... (Remember now.)... For as oft as you eat this bread, and drink this cup, you do shew forth the Lord's death till he come. (How long? "Until He comes." See, see?)

 

>>When does this univited guest get into the wedding supper?<<

 

TO.WHOM.SHALL.WE.GO_  JEFF.IN  SATURDAY_  60-0604

  E-14    There was a man one time in the Bible, that Jesus in His famous parable spoke of. That He said that there was a rich man, and he made a supper for his son, which was going to be a wedding supper; and he invited people to come. And while the supper was ready and everything was ready to be served, all the guests had been seated, and at the table was found a man that did not have on a wedding garment.

>>we know what happened to this guest…He never had a glorified body.  This had to be this side of millennium. Not over in the millennium. This guest was seated among the believers of the message, with no revelation and no glorified body<<

 

CRUELTY.OF.SIN_  JEFF.IN  V-25 N-4  FRIDAY_  53-0403

  63    Jesus taught that famous parable, when He was here on earth. He said the wedding supper was made and--and every man was given a--a garment, and he found one man there without a garment. He said, "Friend, what are you... How--how comes you haven't got a garment?"

Now, the oriental custom of that, when the bridegroom invited every person, he put--he invited. If he invited fifty people, then he had fifty robes. And he stood someone at the door, and every time a man come in, rich or poor, he put the robe on him. Then no one knew whether they was rich or poor. He, all looked the same under a robe.

And that's the way God does today. He gives the Holy Spirit; which is a type. Every man that He invites, we're all the same; not this one 'cause a little better than the other one, and that one a little higher than this one. We're all the same in the sight of God, everyone that's invited to the wedding supper.

 

  66    Then when he came in and he found one man now... Now, there's only one door to come through, because there's where the garments was given out. And he found a man at the supper table, without a garment on. (>> no baptism of Holy Ghost<<) He said, "Friend, what's you doing here? Why haven't you got a garment on?" And the man was speechless. He came in by a window, some other way. He didn't come by the door.

And every man that comes by Christ, into the Body of Christ, receives the Holy Spirit, the Robe. He's standing right there, to put It on you, just as soon as you come in. See? That's what He's promised and that's what He does.

 

REVELATION.CHAP.FOUR.PT.1_  JEFF.IN  ROJC 551-584  SATURDAY_  60-1231

Oh, listen to this. Then if the wedding garment is the baptism of the Holy Spirit, how are we going to be represented any other way? If the first church age had to come by the Door, Christ Jesus, be baptized into the Name of Jesus Christ, receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost, to put on the wedding garment, how we coming any other way? If you come by the Methodists, by the Baptists, or by the Pentecostals, or any other denomination, you will be bound and cast out into outer darkness. You've got to come by Christ Jesus, the Way, the Door, the Truth, the Life. Amen.

>>remember Jesus is the Door in each age.  By the message for that age and the Word for that age is how we come in<<

 

>> Are we now in the rapture? Is the wedding supper on?  Are we in communion with the Word?   It should be clear by now, if we believe only the prophet and NOT  our ideas <<

But yet it'll be perfectly a-vindicated everywhere, just be perfectly normal. See? Everybody that--that wants to see it can see it. See? That's right. But those... Jesus said, as He said when He come, said, "You got eyes and can't see, Isaiah said you did. (See?) And you got ears and you can't hear."

>>God bless the reader of these quotes of the prophet.  If anything is out of context, it was by my own ignorance and not any intention to make the prophet say something different from what he taught on these subjects.  The prophet never spoke so much on these subjects just to be misunderstood.  He tried to make it so simple a child could see it, just like 1 plus 1 is equal 2.  We are the ones that make it complicated, by our own reasoning and ideas, placing things out in the future as we have been conditioned by our denominations over the years.  As the Bride, we must think spiritual and not with a carnal mind.<<
