Cloud-Ring in the Upper Stratosphere

JAMES E. MCDONALD, Institute of Atmospheric Physics,

University of Arizona, Tucson

At sunset on 28 February 1963,

Observers scattered over an area of nearly two hundred thousand square miles in the Southwest witnessed a strikingly beautiful cloud display. After three months of effort to determine just what it was that caught their eyes, I am still not sure myself, though the number of pertinent clues has now grown fairly large. Many persons at first thought it just a large contrail, as I did when first viewing it from Tucson. But the clue to its extremely great height came quickly as the setting suns rays left darkening high cirrus clouds far to the west (!), while

 the ring still shone with a beautiful luminescent silvery cast.

 

“If you notice that's Christ”

 

FEAST.OF.THE.TRUMPETS.title  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-16  64-0719M

Thanks be to God,

that finishes the Message to the Church.

That finishes it,

when they look back and see what has been,

and see where it's all brought up to,

 that finishes it,

the age of the church.

REVELATION 10:1-3

  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:

  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,

  3    And cried with a loud voice, as [when] a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.

FIRST.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0318

They're mysteries.

We don't know what they are yet; but

my opinion they'll be revealed right away.

 And when it do,

 it'll give faith for that rapturing grace for that Church to move out.

We just move through everything that we know of;

 through all the dispensations we've watched everything.

 

2

REVELATION.BOOK.OF.SYMBOLS.title  JEFF.IN  V-13 N-6  56-0617

But remember,

Daniel was told by the Angel.

Daniel heard seven thunders;

they uttered their voices.

Daniel grabbed his pen and started to write, and the Angel said,

"Don't you write it."

 Amen.

But the Bible said,

 and told Daniel and also John,

"That in the

 last days

these seven voices

would be known by the real true Church."

 

3

MODERN.EVENTS.MADE.CLEAR.BY.PROPHECY.title  SBD.CA  V-7 N-6  65- Think of it.

 Jesus said,

 "As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be at the coming of the Son of man,

 when the Son of man is being revealed."

(“The Son of man is Christ.”)

What is revealed?

 Unfolded,

made known.

The secret had been brought forth, revealed.

In the day that the Son of man will be revealed,

 the world will be in a Sodom condition.

 We've got it, haven't we?

 

4

AUDIO.LETTER.TO.LEE.VAYLE.title  TUCSON.AZ  64-0500

But when all these seven thunders mysteries is to be made known,

 He has to come again as Son of man.

That is the same

Holy Spirit

back into human flesh

perfectly paralleling Sodom

when God was manifested in a human being.

See?

 

5

TRIAL.THE.title  TAMPA.FL  V-12 N-2  64-0419

Blind prosecutor,

can't you see that?

 His Words are true:

 not nail scars and prints and thorns.

 It's the Son of God impersonated in His Church,

 as

Son of man.

 It has to fulfill Malachi 4 and the rest of the Scriptures.

I call to the court's attention;

look at that real good,

 "Son of man."

6

IS.THIS.SIGN.OF.THE.END.SIR.title  JEFF  V-2 N-11  62-1230E

And seven thunders right in the revelation here of Jesus Christ, is some mystery. Does not the Bible say that this is the revelation of Jesus Christ?

Why, there's some hidden mystery then of it.

 What is it?

The seven thunders have it.

 

7

MODERN.EVENTS.MADE.CLEAR.BY.PROPHECY.title  SBD.CA  V-7 N-6  65-  Again Jesus came in a—

different from their understanding of that prophecy.

They didn't understand it that way.

(Now, we're going down to the end now.)

 But according to the prophet's Word,

It was fulfilled to the letter.

 The prophecy is fulfilled;

 but the way they thought it would be,

it wasn't that way.

 Now,

 how could they have understood and know which was right or wrong?

 To see if it was vindicated by God,

 if it was God interpreting what He said.

QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS.title  JEFF.IN  COD  54-0103E

  Where are the ten tribes?

Can we locate them?

Yes, sir.

They could be located.

 Geographically they can be located in the Bible.

 And God tells us there where they will be in the last days

and

what will be their end.

QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS.title  JEFF.IN  COD  54-0103E

And the Jews are all returning into Palestine,

where God promised

in the last days

that they'd be there.

10

JESUS.CHRIST.THE.SAME.title  NEW.YORK.NY  54-0824

I seen a picture the other night of very dear friend of mine on the west coast, a Christian business man, Mr. Arganbright.

 And he had a picture called

"Three Minutes Till Midnight."

 I've never been the same since then, after seeing this wonderful picture.

 It showed the answer of all the prophecies pertaining to Jews,

how they would return back,

and how there'd be an ensign at their return,

the six point star David over Jerusalem.

 

11

SECOND.COMING.OF.THE.LORD.title  JEFF.IN  V-9 N-2  57-0417

The prophet prophesied, twenty-eight or thirty hundred years ago, and said,

"When they come out of that captivity,

 God will bring them forth on the wings of eagles."

The prophet saw the plane coming, he saw them setting down, and picking them up and taking them back to the homeland. He didn't know what to call it, he just... Looked like an eagle to him, so he said,

 "They'd be brought back on the wings of eagles."

And when they got out of the airship,

 and the young was helping the old, they were interviewed.

And they said,

"Have you come back to the homelands to die?"

They said,

"No.

We've come back to see the Messiah!"

 

12

SEVENTY.WEEKS.OF.DANIEL.title  JEFF.IN  DA 89-141  61-0806

 The Jews are in a homeland.

We're at the end of the age,

ready for the rapture.

 

13

SEVENTY.WEEKS.OF.DANIEL.title  JEFF.IN  DA 89-141  61-0806

They're in their homeland.

14

INFLUENCE.title  CHICAGO.IL  V-21 N-6  63-0803E

Jesus said,

 "When the fig tree puts forth its bud, this generation shall not pass until all these things are fulfilled."

 When Israel returns to her homeland

and

becomes a nation,

 that generation would see the coming of the Messiah.

.

15

THIS.DAY.THIS.SCRIPTURE.title  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-8  65-0219

Notice another great sign.

 the Jews are in their homeland, their own nation, their own money, a member of the United Nations; they got their own army; they got everything. They're in their homeland which

Jesus said,

 "Learn a parable of the fig tree."

 There they are,

 right back in their nation.

 This day this Scripture's fulfilled.

The Jews in their homeland,

this day this Scripture is fulfilled.

 

16

WHAT.IS.THE.HOLY.GHOST.title  JEFF.IN  V-4 N-2  59-1216

Now,

 we're at the end of this time.

Each man has looked at the end of his junction

 for the coming of Christ.

But they had a lot to look forward to:

èthe returning of the Jews, ç

and

èflying saucers in the skies, ç

all the things that we see today.

But we're at the end.

 We're here now.

[THE RETURNING OF THE JEWSFLYING SAUCERS IN THE SKIES]

 

17

EVERLASTING.LIFE.title  JEFF.IN  V-26 N-12  54-1231

All these great prophecies, fulfilling...

When Jesus said the tidal waves would break the shores,

 up and down the banks of the sea,

 and when great signs and wonders would appear in the heavens above,

 such as

flying saucers and things...

 Because of

èthese signs, ç

would cause the world to fear and quake.

 It would cause earthquakes in divers places,

and all manners of things,

and perplexed of time, and distress between the nations.

And He said,

in that day that Israel would blossom.

Hallelujah.

SHALOM.title  PHOENIX.AZ  V-22 N-1  64-0119

Now,

 a few,

 about three years ago, it will be now, that, at home, at my home church,

the Holy Spirit spoke to me, said,

 "Go to Tucson; there's a--something waiting."

 I stood on this platform and told every one of you,

"THUS SAITH THE LORD,

something's

fixing to happen."

 

And they took the picture of It in the sky.

It come out in--in the magazine.

 

And there stood those

seven Angels

just as natural as you see me standing here, and told me to return to my home,

 that the mysteries that the reformers down through the ages had failed to pick up, the mysteries of the Bible,

which the Seven Seals held, would be revealed.

19

AUDIO.LETTER.TO.LEE.VAYLE.title  TUCSON.AZ  64-0500

After these Angels descending and--and ascended back,

there was

èa lightç

 in the skies.

 you know, about that the...

The science can't even figure out.

?

 

Sun had set

at Albuquerque almost a half hour before this photo was made at 1840 MST.

If it was not due to the explosion,

then the mystery will be back where it started at sunset on 28 February.

 

Luminescent:

glowing, luminous, radiant, luminescent;  bright

 

20

FIVE.JUNCTIONS.OF.TIME.title  STURGIS.MI  56-0122

Flying saucers,

 what are they?

Oh, they say,

 "We seen little men in them,"

all kinds of stories.

They try to deny it, but they're there.

Why?

 God said that there'd be signs in the heavens above and in the earth.

We got it.

 

21

BLUSHING.PROPHET.title  JEFF.IN  56-1125E

  You seen in the paper the other day where they're requiring the Pentagon to answer the flying saucer.

It wasn't a myth;

 it wasn't something you'd imagine;

èit was real.ç

It was an intelligence.

 They flew in battle formation.

 They could dodge.

 They could...?...

They could spot; they could tell;

it was an intelligence.

 

22

BLUSHING.PROPHET.title  JEFF.IN  56-1125E

Angels

 has come to the earth in the last few years.

They've been seen among people,

 I mean honest Blood washed people who knows it.

They've even stood and had their pictures taken.

 That's right.

 

23

CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY.title  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-7  63-0728

We're in a dangerous time.

Remember,

the Scripture says when these things begin to happen,

time is no more;

she's fading away.

 When we see the manifestation:

earthquakes--see them thousand killed the other day?

 Earthquakes in divers places;

 said,

 fearful sights in the skies

--pillars of fire like,

floating around like flying saucers.

 They don't know what it is.

See?

 They don't have any idea.

“We're in a dangerous time.”

 

I JOHN 1:5

5       This then is the message which we have heard of him, and declare unto you, that God is light, and in him is no darkness at all.

 

I JOHN 4:8

8       He that loveth not knoweth not God; for God is love.

 

24

WORLD.AGAIN.FALLING.APART.title  SHP.LA  V-17 N-4  63-1127

It may be almost passed feeling time

 (See?),

because there'll come a time like that

when the Spirit of God will be

with-taken from the earth,

there'll be no more.

TIME FRAME

The Church will remain a while (That's right.) preaching, 'cause it has to preach to the eternal lost, just as every ministry did, coming down through the age.

The last part of every ministry preached to the eternal lost. And there'll be a ministry now that'll preach to the eternal lost after they have refused to receive it.

25

HEBREWS.CHAPTER.3.title  JEFF.IN  HEB  57-0901M

About the only religion and salvation we have,

and love,

 is amongst the real godly people.

You know the Bible said that would happen?

 (That's right.)

The love would be so far away in the last days,

 the only love there would be left would be between the elect of God's people.

 The father would be against mother, and mother against father,

and the children against parents, and different ones against each other.

And the only love would be left would just be that elect;

just the elected.

The word "elect," there, comes from the word "elected":

God's elected people.

 

MATTHEW 24:12 -- Watch what generation Jesus puts this on.

26

EVENTS.MADE.CLEAR.BY.PROPHECY.title  JEFF.IN  V-12 N-3  65-0801E

  Friends, this is the fulfillment of Malachi 4, St. Luke 17, St. John 15, oh, so many, Revelations 10, so many prophecies that can be pinned exactly to this day.

And also in the Book of Mark and in Matthew,

where He said these great signs and wonders

would appear in the sky,

and people call them saucers,

 flying saucers,

can--can vanish with the power and quickness of a thought,

intelligence that can move in.

 He can write and speak;

 He can do whatever He wants to.

 The great Pillar of Fire,

 the same yesterday, today, and forever...

And sights coming upon the earth,

 pyramids,

the smoke rising into the air,

 way above where there cannot be no humidity nor nothing,

 thirty miles high,

 predicted a year and a half before it happened, that it would be that way.

Then turn the picture

and see

Who it is looking down.

THE BIRTH OF FLYING SAUCERS

"The truth is out there..." -from 'The X-Files" TV show (1995)
Without doubt the UFO phenomenon was the greatest and most bizarre mystery of the

 twentieth century.

 Millions of people from all parts of the world reported sightings and experiences and millions more were captivated by the subject.

 In truth, no-one really knew exactly what the UFO phenomenon represented,

 but the most popular interpretation was that alien beings were visiting Earth. Sightings of lights in the sky, strange flying discs, and even sinister accounts of alien abductions, all fed a ripe collective imagination towards the belief that we were not alone in the universe.

 UFO's became one of the most controversial topics during the

latter half of the century,

not least because many believed that governments knew the truth and refused to inform the public of what they knew.

An entire catalogue of theories emerged regarding the UFO phenomenon, ranging from the simple notion that extra-terrestrial beings were travelling across the universe to Earth, to more complex psychological theories that implied that UFO's were a part of a bizarre human phenomenon.

 But whatever UFO's were, the phenomenon itself was very real.

Said,

 "I've been sent from the Presence of Almighty God to tell you that you were born for this purpose to pray for sick people, to go into parts of the world, and you'll be praying for monarchs and great men; and healings and so forth will take place.

 And these things will be.

 And great congregations will gather,

 and it'll cause a revival that's going to sweep the land."

A LIGHT OVER THE TWENTIETH CENTURY PROPHET

On the night of January 24, 1950,

one of the most amazing photographs (picture above) of all time was taken in the Sam Houston Coliseum, Houston, Texas. As William Branham stood at the podium, a halo of fire appeared above his head. This picture was the only one that turned out on the entire film! George J. Lacy, Investigator of Questioned Documents, and often hired by the FBI in that capacity, subjected the negative to every scientific test available. At a news conference, he stated,

"To my knowledge, this is the first time in all the world's history that a supernatural being has been photographed and scientifically vindicated."

The original of this photograph is kept in the archives of the Religious Department of the Smithsonian Institute, Washington, D.C.

The "Life" magazine packed an article of it,

"Mystic

ècircle of lightç

 goes up in the air above Tucson and Phoenix"

There it is,

 hanging in the sky so far there's no humidity, no moisture, nothing to make a--a fog. How could it come there?

It was the Angels of God

returning back after their Message.

This day that prophecy has been fulfilled in our midst.

This day this Scripture has been fulfilled.

REVELATION.BOOK.OF.SYMBOLS.title  JEFF.IN  V-13 N-6  56-0617

Look.

And if you've got the Holy Spirit in you,

then you're a candidate for association with the unseen world and the Supernatural.

 No wonder people can't believe in those things;

they've never come in contact.

They got nothing in here to believe with.

 

28

REVELATION.BOOK.OF.SYMBOLS.title  JEFF.IN  V-13 N-6  56-0617

  But when the Holy Spirit comes into the heart,

 quickly He becomes then a

--a twofold being:

one of the earth to die; and one of heaven to live. Amen. In his body he's still subject to death; but in his soul he's passed from death unto Life.

 In his body he has his earthly contact with his five senses;

in his spirit he has a contact with God through the Holy Ghost.

And the

Angels of God

visits them, and speaks with them,

and they are messengers sent from God to reveal,

and to bring messages from God to the individual.

 See?

We know it's investigating judgment Angels

 (You see?),

and they...

 How that the Pentagon, all about how it comes right down to the intelligence;

how they go like a flash and be gone; pull away from anything they got.

See, and they don't realize what it is. See? Let them think whatever they want to. They call them flying saucers or whatever;

they don't know.

CHRIST.REVEALED.IN.HIS.OWN.WORD.title  JEFF.IN  V-4 N-10  65-0822M

 and

mystic lights,

 and everything they're seeing in the

 You seen they had one here in the paper at Jeffersonville this week and so forth,

a mystic light saw.

Oh, they don't know what that is.

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

And the observatories and all of them in Tucson are still asking, research of science trying to find out what it is.

 So high there can't be fog, mist, or nothing up there.

"What did it?  Where's it at?"

 They're just as puzzled of that

1963èsupernatural haloç1963

hanging yonder in the sky

 as they was when the Magi come in following a star,

saying,

"Where is He that's born King of the Jews?"

 What was it?

 God fulfilling His Word,

 "And there shall rise a star out of Jacob."

And the God of heaven promised the evening time would have

evening Light.

Three years ago this mystery was a prophecy,

 "What time is it, sir?"

But now it's history.

 It's passed.

The promise is fulfilled.

BREACH.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0317E

And we realize that in the Scriptures over in Malachi 4, there's to be a one like John, a--an Elijah,

 

JOHN 1:1-12

  1     In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

  2    The same was in the beginning with God.

  3    All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

  4    In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

  5     And the light shineth in darkness; and the darkness comprehended it not.

  6    There was a man sent from God, whose name [was] John.

  7    The same came for a witness, to bear witness of the Light, that all [men] through him might believe.

  8    He was not that Light, but [was sent] to bear witness of that Light.

  9    [That] was the true Light, which lighteth every man that cometh into the world.

  10    He was in the world, and the world was made by him, and the world knew him not.

  11    He came unto his own, and his own received him not.

  12    But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, [even] to them that believe on his name:

1963     that circle of Light in the skies,     1963

 thirty miles high,

twenty-seven miles across.

Why, moisture's only about nine miles high,

 and they can't even make up what it was.

 

JEREMIAH 10:2

2     Thus saith the LORD, Learn not the way of the heathen, and be not dismayed at the signs of heaven; for the heathen are dismayed at them.

 

 

JESUS, THE LIGHT OF THE WORLD. [#208]

 

All ye saints of light proclaim, Jesus, the light of the world

Life and mercy in His Name, Jesus, the light of the world

 

CHORUS

 

We’ll walk in the light, beautiful light, come where the dewdrops of mercy are bright

Shine all around us by day and by night, Jesus, the light of the world.

 

Hear the Saviour’s earnest call, Jesus, the light of the world

Send the Gospel truth to all, Jesus, the light of the world.

 

Why not seek Him then today, Jesus, the light of the world

Go with truth the narrow way, Jesus, the light of the world.

 

Come, confess Him as your King, Jesus the light of the world

Then the bells of Heaven will ring, Jesus, the light of the world.

 

 

WE ARE STANDING ON HOLY GROUND.  [#51]

 

We are standing on Holy ground

And I know that there are Angels all around

Let us praise, Jesus now

We are standing in His presence on Holy ground.

 

Amen.
