TRYING.TO.DO.GOD.A.SERVICE.title  JEFF.IN  V-4 N-8  65-0718M

  There's your five musts.

 It's got to be that way:

 His time; His season (when He said it would be); and the man that He chose, and it must come to the prophet; and the prophet must be a vindicated prophet.

 

 

ACCEPTING THE WORD SPOKEN BY THE PROPHET

 

“Now this entire controversy began when some make-believer challenged the idea of Bro. Branham hunting the Javelina in Arizona on Feb. 28, 1963, as was widely preached at that time, and still to this day by some that

will not accept Bro. Branham's words.
The challenge was issued because research shows that the hunting season did not open until March 1, 1963;

 therefore

 "some prophet you all have, out there hunting illegally."

--George Smith

 

 

TRYING.TO.DO.GOD.A.SERVICE.title  JEFF.IN  V-4 N-8  65-0718M

Let's consult the prophet,

the Bible,

where we cannot add to or take from It.

If we do, God takes us from the Book of Life.

 The Bible said in Malachi 4 what would happen today, Revelations 10, how the Seven Seals would be open and reveal all these mysteries that's been hid through these reformers.

 He said how it would be done.

It's in the Bible,

 THUS SAITH THE LORD.

 God has completely, perfectly identified that and a-vindicated It to be the truth by signs, wonders in the heavens and the skies, and everything else for thirty-three years.

 You think they'll listen to it?

No,

 they're dead.

 

THE SEVENTH SEAL

A.

QA.ON.THE.SEALS.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324M

And--and we're now coming up to the last Seal tonight, the Lord willing.

And it's a very mysterious Seal,

very, very,

 because it's not even...

It's not even mentioned in the Scriptures nowhere,

no symbols, anything to hold onto.

It's got to come

Right direct from heaven.

Very: In a high degree; extremely; exceedingly:

 

Flesh and blood hath not revealed

[it]unto thee,

[READ MATTHEW 16:17] 

 But

 My Father, which is in heaven

 

==>“Now, the coming of the Lord is in mystery.”<==

 

THIRST.title  TUCSON.AZ  V-16 N-6  65-0919

All those theologians in the days of Jesus, my, they had word by word, page by page, all laid out, the Messiah had to come this way. That's exactly what it was. And they every one missed it. You know what Jesus said when He come, said,

"You are of your father the Devil, and his works you'll do."

It wasn't revealed to them what the real Word was.

 See,

they missed those little corners, like they're missing today.

[“THOSE   LITTLE   CORNERS”, SET THE ELECTED ON THE RIGHT ROUTE,]

B.

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

But His mystery

 is only revealed to His beloved Bride.

 That's the only one could see it.

C

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

  The Holy Ghost is the only Revealer of the Divine revelation of Christ.

There's no school can do it; no scholar can do it, no man, how well educated, how godly or anything else;

there's no man can do it.

 

==>Now, the coming of the Lord is in mystery.<==

REVELATION 8:1

1       And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.

87

WHAT.SHALL.I.DO.WITH.JESUS.title  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-6  63-1124M

  And who would dare to say that wasn't the inspired Word of God,

when He foretold It here,

and sent out yonder to Arizona, and brought it right back,

even with science and everything else,

 and proved it so.

This Book's already opened (That's right)

just waiting for the Seventh Seal to be

 identified

with the coming of Christ.

[WE HAVE SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE, PROPHETIC UTTERANCE AND THE WORD PROVING IT TO BE THE TRUTH.]

88

SEVENTH.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324E

No angels singing, no praises, no--no altar service, no nothing.

There was silence, hush,

 deadly silence in heaven for a half hour.

All the host of heaven was silent for this half hour,

 when this Seventh Seal mystery in the Book of Redemption

was broke open.

Think of it;

 but it's broke. The Lamb breaks it.

 

 

 

 

89

BREACH.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0317E

All that what Christ will do at the end will be revealed to us

this week

in the Seven Seals if God will let us. See? All right; it'll be revealed.

[ONE WEEK]

90

SEVENTH.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324E

Now, how did I know the other day, last Sunday,

a week ago today,

when I was preaching on

 "Be humble, be humble; remember God deals in little things."

[ONE WEEK]

91

QA.ON.THE.SEALS.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324M

And it--it's a kind of a straining hour for me.

It has been all week.

 Now, this is my, be my eighth day in a room.

[ONE WEEK]

92

SEVENTH.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324E

  Now,

 have you noticed the

mysterious parts of this week?

That's what it is. That's what it's been.

It's been, not a human being, a man;

 it has been the Angels of the Lord.

[ONE WEEK]

93

SEVENTH.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324E

Something going on, I told you,

this week that you...

It's been all around you, but I wonder if you noticed it. Remember the constellation of the vision of the Angels when I left here to go to Arizona?

 You remember,

"What Time Is It, Sirs?"

Do you remember that?

Notice, there was only one great burst of thunder, and seven Angels appeared.

 Is that right?

One burst of thunder, seven Angels appeared.

[THE SEVEN ANGELS WERE CONNECTED TO THIS ONE WEEK.]

 

 

94

SEVENTH.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324E

" This has been a mysterious week”

 

95

MARCH 17, 1963 – MARCH 24, 1963

[THIS WEEK WAS PRECEDED BY A BLAST.]

 

96

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

I could see those Angels,

 those shaped-back wings traveling faster than sound could travel.

They come from eternity in a split like a twinkling of an eye,

 not enough to bat your eye, just a twinkle.

They were there.

I didn't have time to count. I didn't have time, no more than just look.

Mighty ones, great powerful Angels, snow white, wings set in head, and they were "whew wheeew,"

[Brother Branham illustrates--Ed.]

 and when it did,

I was

=>caught up<=  

into this pyramid of constellation.

[THE CARNAL MIND STUMBLES WITH THIS.

HE WAS IN THE DESERT -  STANDING ON EARTH

AND CONNECTED WITH THE ANGELS ON EARTH.]

97

PERSEVERANT.title  CHICAGO.IL  V-21 N-4  63-0802

  How many ever heard the tape,

"Sirs, What Time Is It?"

 just before I went out west? The reason the Angel of the Lord sent me out there,

He told me, said,

"Now, coming from the heavens will be seven Angels in a constellation

be three on a side, and one in the top. It'll be like a triangle, or something like a pyramid."

And I said,

"The one on the right had His wings turned back,

 and

I was

swept right into the constellation by Him,

 and

He was to tell me what to do."

98

SEVENTH.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324E

And the Angels

 took me into that pyramid of themselves,

 the mysteries of God known only to them.

 

99

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."

[NOAH HAD TO WAIT A WEEK -- GENESIS 7:10]

·        IT WAS REPORTED:

“One item that he mentioned later that did not get put in the story (Road to Sunset): "Bro. Branham told us that the Angels had been there waiting for us for a week."

"Go to Tucson and wait there for a while. And you'll hear a blast go off”

“Set down, waiting, resting”.

100

SEVENTH.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324E

Notice,

there's witnesses of three setting in here,

that a week ago

(a little over a week ago)

 I was up way back into the mountains, nearly to Mexico, with two brethren that's setting here, picking cocklebur--or sand burrs off of my trouser leg, and

 a blast went off

that almost, looked like, shook the mountains down.

[ABOUT 9 DAYS PRIOR TO MARCH 17, 1963 – WOULD BE MARCH 8, 1963]

 

“I was caught up into this pyramid of constellation”.

 

101

SEVENTH.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324E

  And now, we are grateful to God for what He has showed us.

I've been setting in the room

=>up there<=

for eight days,

+

 and the message that I have just got through explaining to you,

 many of you here will understand, and I promise that there was something going on, spiritual, all the time, that I was sure you were missing it, and here's what it is:

 It's the absolute a-vindication of this interpretation of the Scriptures being sent of God, because before we even went into it, and I left to go west, the Lord showed me a vision one day about ten o'clock one morning, and I come and explained it here that I had seen it, didn't know what it was;

it was a constellation of seven Angels.

We'll remember that. You'll get it on the tape, called,

"What Time Is It, Sir?"

Well now, that is exactly what you're seeing now.

 

“Have you noticed the mysterious parts of this week?

That's what it is. That's what it's been.

It's been, not a human being, a man;

 it has been the Angels of the Lord”.

 

[HE WAS STANDING IN THAT CONSTELLATION.]

gathering, company, assembly, circle.

REMEMBER

“This seventh angel is on earth at the time of this coming”.

 

102

SEVENTH.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324E

That was that first and second pull. Now,the third came from the west sweeping forward with great terrific speed,

and they

picked  me  up.

That was

coming back east with the mystery of these Seven Seals,

 just like it said in--in Junior Jackson's dream

 that the Lord let me interpret for him there.

On the inside of that pyramid, there was white stone that wasn't written on.

That's the reason I had to go west to connect with these Angel's message to come back here to reveal it to the church.

 

“Picked me up”   “Caught up”   “Swept me into”   “Took me into”

 

103

UNVEILING.OF.GOD.title  JEFF.IN  V-9 N-1  64-0614M

What did He say a year and six months ago, about on two years now?

"Go out to Tucson. Be north of Tucson, a great blast,"

what would take place; the seals would be opened, the seal that revealed these things. Come back just as He said. What is it? It shows It cannot be man. It hits perfectly, just as straight as it can be, each time.

What is it?

 It's the hand of God (See?), before us.

And because it's in a little group,

veiled in human flesh, it's veiled to the outside world.

=>He's hid from the outside world.<=

 

104

PERGAMEAN.CHURCH.AGE.title  JEFF.IN  ROJC 229-285  60-1207

  Well, what is the hidden manna?

The manna

that isn't given to all of the congregation.

 

105

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

Now, as soon as this Church, the Bride is drawed together,

she's taken up;

in that mystery of the Seventh Seal,

 or the Seventh Seal, the mystery going.

 

“Picked me up”   “Caught up”   “Swept me into”   “Took me into”

·        Compound meaning:

“And history always repeats itself,

and Scripture has a compound meaning to It and a compound revelation.”

 

=>-a double answer.<=

 “It had a answer to Jacob called out and to Jesus called out”.

 

106

RAPTURE.THE.title  YUMA.AZ  V-5 N-14  65-1204

The word

"rapture"

 in the Bible is not even used at all.We just put that word there.

 The Bible said,

"Caught up, being caught up."

107

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

But His mystery

is only revealed to His beloved Bride.

 That's the only one could see it.

 He said,

"Well did Isaiah speak of you, you hypocrites, you snake in the grass.

You go out here and say,

'Oh, the great holy prophets, we mark their tombs; we polish them.'"

He said,

"You're the one that put them in there."

Did He say it?

 

108

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

  Oh, and notice,

 John, being taken up immediately after the church age,

was a type of the raptured church. Immediately after the church age is over,

 this Laodicean church age,

 then comes the rapture.

The church goes up like John did

into the Presence of God.

 Oh, that just winds my soul around.

Caught up,

at the rapture of the church

 

“She’s taken up; in that mystery of the Seventh Seal”

 

109

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

  Caught up,

fulfilled His promise in--in Revelation 4:2.

Before

his death

he was caught up in the Spirit

 

REMEMBER

John was on earth at the time of this vision.

 

110

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

Could it be that?

The mighty thunder,

 or the seventh angel in the seven constellation, seventh period constellation,

 the pyramid made in a form, three on a side, and one on top,

 and they

 dropped from eternity.

Could it be?

 

111

SEVENTH.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324E

It thundered out,

 but He... knowing that...

promising us that it would be opened,

but to this time,

it isn't opened.

 

112

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

=>It’ll come to pass. <=

See?

You'll notice what them revealed,

that

great thunder

a-coming forth out of the-

-out of the skies.

Now...

Of course, the whole bunch of you, you know that I know what that-

-what that means.

You see?

And...

But let's just wait till the time comes

(You see?)

for it to...?...

Now...

And it'll be more in season.

 

“You'll notice what them revealed ,that great thunder a-coming forth out of the

-out of the skies”.

113

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

  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."

 

114

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

When finished, the Laodicean age, according to Revelations 10,

 the mystery of all the Bible

would be knowed to the Bride.

 

115

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

I could see those Angels,

those shaped-back wings traveling faster than sound could travel.

They come from eternity

in a split like a twinkling of an eye,

 not enough to bat your eye, just a twinkle.

They were there.

 

116

STANDING.IN.THE.GAP.title  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-7  63-0623M

  And now,

=>I didn't know at the time,<=

that they were taking pictures of that, scientists was,

as the Angels lowered themselves from heaven

to bring the message.

 

117

SEVENTH.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324E

  Now, do you see it?

 The Truth of God's vision,

the seven Angels,

bringing me from the west.

 

[“I was swept right into the constellation by Him”]

 

They were coming from the west, coming back east, bringing here

for this message tonight.

 

 

118

SEVENTH.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0324E

  Just think now.

I knew not these Seals,

and they been revealed this week.

Did anybody think of that?

 Of those seven Angels,

 being this being the message that was coming forth,

them Angels

 bringing me back here for that?

“I was caught up into this pyramid of constellation”.

 

 “There He is with them Angels”.

 

“The Angels themselves was His wig”.

 

119

HE.THAT.IS.IN.YOU.title  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-12  63-1110E

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.

 

120

·        PROPHETIC UTTERANCE:

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."

There's probably hundreds of people setting here that know it.

 I just told you what I saw.

The message is on tape,

"What Time Is It, Sir?"

[AS IT WAS IN THE DAYS OF NOAH – SO SHALL IT BE….

 NOAH WAITED A WEEK – 7 DAYS.]

121

·        SCIENTIFIC EVIDENCE:

IS.YOUR.LIFE.WORTHY.title  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-5  63-0630E

  And science says that it's impossible for--for any kind of a--a mist or anything get that high, fog, vapor. See, it'll only go just... I wouldn't know.

I--I--we--when we go overseas, we travel nine thousand feet; that's above the storms. That's approximately about four miles. And say, let's say maybe it's fifteen miles till you can't get no more vapor.

 But this was twenty-six miles,

 and she hung there all day.

 See?

They don't know what it is.

But thank the Lord, we do.

 [“SCIENCE TOOK THE PICTURE”]

122

·        THE WORD OF GOD:

MATTHEW 24:27

  27    For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

 

123

MARRIAGE.AND.DIVORCE.title  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-13  65-0221M

Now,

you remember the Voice said,

"Go to Tucson."

You remember

a mystic Light in the skies,

the seven Angels standing there?

 

124

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

=>I didn't see the lightning. <=

 

[“A mystic Light in the skies”]

 

I just heard that great blast

 

125

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

 I never know it till the other day.

Everything, that-

-that shall never die,

it's constantly unrolling itself.

From the very thing happening, to the

picture being Jesus standing looking at us,

and now exactly on Sunset Mountain,

and the sunset Light.

The evening Light

has come.

 

JOHN 12:46

      I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.

 

126

WHO.IS.THIS.MELCHISEDEC.title  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-10  65-0221E

How many ever seen the picture of

that Light?

It's all over the country,

everywhere.

 Science has took it and examined it and everywhere.

                       

“There He is with them Angels”.

 

 

 

127

MODERN.EVENTS.MADE.CLEAR.BY.PROPHECY.title  SBD.CA  65-1206

And then see those seven angels come down here on top of that mountain yonder in Arizona, when even the magazines across the nation's packed It.

To see

Jesus Himself

there in the skies.

 

128

TOKEN.THE.title  BAKF.CA  V-22 N-8  64-0208

  So much Word is allotted to each generation.

God sends someone in there and identifies that Word by His interpretation of Himself.

Creeds and things has always had the church in such a turmoil.

Everybody says,

"Well, this is the way. And this is the way. And this is what you must do."

But God comes in, and steps on the scene,

and makes what He said come to pass.

That's the interpretation.

Needs nobody to tell. Not sinful men, or organizations, or any great big denomination, or anything else, to interpret the Word; some bishop, archbishop, pope or something. That isn't it;

God does His own interpreting.

When He promised it,

He does it.

 

129

GOD.IS.HIS.OWN.INTERPRETER.title  BAKF.CA  V-8 N-6  64-0205

Nobody has to interpret It;

the

Word interprets Itself.

God promised it

and

there it happened.

 

 

130

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

How He could stand there and say,

"This day this Scripture is fulfilled

right before your eyes"...

How outstanding. How so plainly, and yet those people misunderstood.

Why?

 Is because they took the interpretation of some order of priests that they were listening to.

+

 And so is it today.

Is because that we're in such a turmoil as we are, and people

 fail to see the Truth of God,

 is because there's too many manmade interpretations of God's Word.

God don't need nobody to interpret His Word.

He is His own Interpreter.

 

131

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

"Go to Tucson.

 You'll be northeast of Tucson and there'll come seven Angels in a cluster that will shake the whole earth around you."

And said,

"It'll be told you from there."

 

[“Everything, that--that shall never die, it's constantly unrolling itself”]

 

How many remembers that here, way before it happened?

There's men setting right here in this building tonight was standing right there when it happened, and said the Seven Seals of the hidden mysteries of the entire Bible would be open and fulfill Revelations 10, that in the seventh angel's Message these things should come to pass.

This day this Scripture is fulfilled before our eyes.

This day this Scripture is fulfilled.

 

AMEN.
