Good morning, beloved and kind friends and brethren present, and those who are in different countries, ministers, brethren, congregations gathered on this occasion.
Receive my greetings, missionary Miguel Bermudez Marin and all the churches and ministers in different nations; and my appreciation and gratitude for the support you are giving to the project of construction of The Great Tent Cathedral in Puerto Rico.
It is a great blessing for me to be with you on this occasion. to have the Bible study that corresponds to this Sunday, July 26, 2015. It is a great blessing for me to be here to speak on this Bible study about: THE INTRODUCTION TO THE MILLENNIUM and His Kingdom, the Kingdom of the Messiah, which will be carried out according to the divine promise.
For which let us read in Matthew, chapter 24, verses 27 to 31, where it says, Christ Himself speaking:
“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.
For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.
Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:
And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.
And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.”
God bless our souls with His Word, open the Scriptures to us and our understanding in order to comprehend. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
Our Bible study for today is: “THE INTRODUCTION TO THE MILLENNIUM.”
The Millennium, which corresponds to the Kingdom of the Messiah, a Kingdom of one thousand years promised throughout the Scriptures, let us see the promise of Revelation, chapter 20, verses 4 to 6, where it says:
“And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
But the rest of the dead lived not again until the thousand years were finished. This is the first resurrection.
Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.”
It clearly says here what will take place as the introduction to the Millennium or the Millennial Kingdom of Christ, the Messiah, the Christ, who will sit upon the Throne of David and reign for one thousand years over Israel and all nations.
This is the Kingdom of which the Spirit of God also speaks to us about through prophet Ezekiel in chapter 37, when he speaks to us about Israel, of the tribes of the north (which are ten) and the tribes of the south (which are two); which were separated in the time of Jeroboam and Rehoboam; and ten tribes were given to Jeroboam (the tribes of the north), and the kingdom of the north was established there, composed of ten tribes; and Rehoboam was left with two tribes in the kingdom of the south or kingdom of Judah, as heir to David.
Therefore, Rehoboam was left with the kingdom of David; and from the tribe of Ephraim, Jeroboam, was left with ten tribes. And those ten tribes have been separated from the two tribes of the south or kingdom of Judah.
But the promise is that they will be joined once again, in order for the Kingdom of David to be restored; and the Messiah-Prince rule, reign over the twelve tribes of Israel.
Which will take place in the Last Day, in the seventh millennium from Adam until now, wherein the Messiah will establish His Kingdom, He will restore the Kingdom of David as the Son of David; and being that He is a descendant of David, He is the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King and as Judge. And He is the Prince of Peace who will bring peace to Israel, and from there, peace will extend to every nation, the permanent peace for Israel and all nations.
This Millennial Kingdom is what the human family longs for; because we all want peace to be happy with our families in our nations.
Now, the introduction to this Millennial Kingdom is made by the Messiah in His Coming with His Angels, who He sends to call and gather His elect, calling them with Great Voice of Trumpet. The Voice of Trumpet is the Voice of God speaking to them, and calling and gathering His elect.
First, He has to call and gather the elect of His Church of the Last Day, which is under the New Covenant; and then, call and gather the elect of the Hebrew people, which are one hundred and forty-four thousand, twelve thousand from each tribe.
For which He will send His Angels with a Great Voice of Trumpet; and His Angels are the Two Olive Trees of Zechariah, chapter 4, verses 1 to 14; and Revelation, chapter 11, verses 1 to 14. The elect of God of the Last Day will be called and gathered under these ministries.
They are the same Angel messengers of the parable of the wheat and the tares, which will separate the tares from the wheat and will cast them into the fire of the great tribulation, of that day burning like an oven, which is coming according to Malachi, chapter 4, verse 1 to 6, which will burn the wicked, and shall leave them neither root nor branch.
“But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise.” In other words, the Coming of Christ, who is the Sun of Righteousness, will arise for them; because it is the Messiah in His coming in the Last Day coming to His Church, who will introduce the Millennium; and consequently, He will introduce His Kingdom in the Last Day, reclaiming everything He has redeemed with His Blood, and bringing them unto resurrection ⏤those who died in Christ⏤, resurrecting them in eternal bodies; and He will transform the believers in Christ who are alive, they will be glorified, changed into young, immortal, glorified bodies like the glorified body Jesus Christ has, who is as young as when He ascended to Heaven and sat at the right hand of God, as He said He would, and like all of the writings of the apostles in the book of Acts and in the apostolic letters of Saint Paul and other apostles, testify that Christ is seated on the Throne of God, as He promised.
And Christ in Holy Spirit in the midst of His Church, testifies that He is sitting on the Throne of God. That is in Revelation, chapter 3, verses 20 to 21, where it says:
“Behold, I stand at the door, and knock: if any man hear my voice, and open the door, I will come in to him, and will sup with him, and he with me.
To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.
He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches.”
This is what the Holy Spirit is saying to the Church in the seventh stage of the Church or Age of Laodicea, represented in the church that was in Laodicea in Asia Minor.
This scripture is for the end time. All of the promises made in each stage of the Church will be given to the one who sits with Christ on His Throne, just as Christ sat with the Father on His Throne, and then said1: “All power is given unto me in heaven and in earth.” Because the power is on the Throne, and the one who sits on the Throne is the one who receives the power.
Now, for this end time, the introduction to the Millennium or Millennial Kingdom is made by Christ coming to His Church in the golden stage of the Church, the Age of Cornerstone; just as He came to each past age and fulfilled the Program of God relevant to each stage of the Church, for this end time He will fulfill the Divine Program relevant to the Golden Age of the Church, the Age of Cornerstone; and that is also where ⏤Christ and His believers⏤ will receive the great victory in divine love; because there was also a struggle and a victory for the believers in Christ in each stage of the Church.
For this end time the introduction to the Millennium, the Millennial Kingdom, is made in the stage of the Cornerstone, with everything that corresponds to this end time.
Just as John introduced Christ, he was the forerunner of the First Coming of Christ, Reverend William Branham was the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ.
John presented Christ in His First Coming coming as the Lamb of God, when he said2: “Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world”; and the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ presents Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, that is how he presents Him for the Second Coming of Christ coming to His Church in the Last Day.
And Reverend William Branham says in the message “The Feast of the Trumpets,” paragraph 1893:
“This will be the Trumpet; the feast, be rejected, then their Messiah made known. Notice, they’ll know their Messiah when they see Him. He is coming in power, this time, the One they looked for. He is coming in power, for the Gentile Bride, and the Jews are going to recognize Him.”
How and when and where will they see Him, will recognize Him? Coming for His Bride-Church in the Last Day in His final manifestation.
This is what Christ spoke about in Matthew, chapter 16, verses 26 to 28, where He says, speaking of His Coming:
“For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole world, and lose his own soul? or what shall a man give in exchange for his soul?
For the Son of man shall come in the glory of his Father with his angels (How will the Son of Man come? In the glory of His Father with His Angels)<em>; and then he shall reward every man according to his works.”
In Revelation, chapter 22, verse 12, says: “And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.”
He continues saying:
“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.”
And then, on chapter 17 of Matthew, He takes them aside, to a tall mountain, Peter, James and John, and He was transfigured before them; and Elijah and Moses appeared one on each side of Jesus, speaking to Him about His departure to Jerusalem; because that is the Order of the Coming of the Lord, the Son of Man, for the Last Day.
Also, Reverend William Branham tells us, on page 42 of the book of Quotations, paragraph 3454:
“Matthew 17, all right: …after six days Jesus take Peter, James, and John…in a high mountain apart, And was transfigured before them: and his face did shine as the sun (remember what Malachi, chapter 4, verse 2, says: ‘But unto you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his wings.’) and his raiment was white as the light. He was transformed. What did He do? Passed Hisself into transformation, over into His coming day.”
In other words, He was showing them the Order of His Coming. There they were seeing the what the Coming of the Messiah will be for the Last Day, in the last millennium; and that is the introduction to the Millennium, the Millennial Kingdom.
“He taken them up, and He was transfigured before them, transformed. His raiment shined like the sun in the middle of its strength, and there appeared unto Him Moses and Elijah (Now get this). What form is the Son of Man coming in now? And first, will appear, will be Moses and Elijah. Now, notice, before Jesus returns to the earth… Now, this is a little ahead of time, but the Spirit of Elijah will return back to the earth and turn the hearts of the children back to the father. The Bible said so. Jesus saw him here, the apostles saw him here, the order of the coming of the Son of man glorified. He’s to be glorified and coming back. The first thing, before they saw Him, was what? Elijah. Then what? Moses; Israel returning yonder, the law-keepers. And then the glorified Son of Man. Hallelujah! Do you see the order of His Coming?”
Also, in the parable of the wheat and the tares, let us see what it tells us in Matthew, chapter 13, verse 30:
“Let both grow together until the harvest (in other words, let the wheat and tares grow together): and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.”
That is what was said the Lord would do. Let us see a little more… In the same chapter 13… Remember that the reapers are the Angels. In the same chapter 13, verses 47 and on, says:
“Again, the kingdom of heaven is like unto a net, that was cast into the sea, and gathered of every kind:
Which, when it was full, they drew to shore, and sat down, and gathered the good into vessels, but cast the bad away.
So shall it be at the end of the world: the angels shall come forth, and sever the wicked from among the just.”
The Angels are the Two Olive Trees, Moses and Elijah, who appeared on Mount Transfiguration one on each side of Jesus. Those are the same ministries of Zechariah, chapter 4, verse 1 to 14; and Revelation, chapter 11, verses 1 to 14. There is the mystery of the introduction to the Millennium, there is the mystery of the Coming of the Messiah for this end time.
We are already at the end time where these promises will be fulfilled; and whoever has their spiritual eyes wide open, will see them gradually being fulfilled; and when the story is told, you will say: “I believed, I saw and I understood what God was carrying out in this end time.” And that is the INTRODUCTION TO THE MILLENNIUM, because the introduction to the Millennium is made by the Lord in this end time.
In Revelation, chapter 8, verse 1, it says that when the Seventh Seal was opened there was silence in Heaven for about half an hour. The Seventh Seal is the Coming of the Lord. The Lord is the Seventh Seal coming in the Last Day to His Church. And that is what the Jews will see: the Messiah coming to His Church in the Last Day, in the introduction to the Millennial Kingdom. And they will recognize Him, Reverend William Branham tells us in the reading we had.
Reverend William Branham says in the book of The Seals in Spanish, page 464 and 465 (the last paragraph on 464, and then we go on to page 465), says5:
“We must remember that this Seventh Seal is the end of time, of all things. That’s right. The things written in the Seven-Seal Book, sealed up, of the plan of redemption from before the foundation of the world, it every bit ends. It is the end; it is the end of the struggling world. It’s the end of struggling nature. It’s the end of everything. In there, it’s the end of the Trumpets. It’s the end of the Vials. It’s the end of the Earth. It’s the…It’s even the end of time. Time runs out. The Bible said so. Matthew, the 7th chapter…I mean, Revelation, the 7th cha-…10th chapter and the…and 1 to the 7th verse. Time runs out. The Angel said, ‘Time will be no more,’ when that, in the days of this great thing to happen. Everything runs out.”
In other words, that with the Coming of the Lord, the Coming of the Messiah, everything ends. His Coming is the Seventh Seal; and He is the Seventh Seal, who is contained in the Seventh Seal. It says:
“At the end of this Seventh Seal. Notice. It’s the end of the church age. It’s the—the end of the Seventh Seal. It’s the end of the Trumpets. It’s the end of the Vials, and even end the ushering in of the Millennium. That’s on the Seventh Seal.
It’s just like firing a rocket into the air (like a rocket they use at the festivities or on one of those festive days of the nations; those rockets that are fired and they release many little stars; like that). And that rocket explodes here (that is, when it comes out it explodes), and it goes up and then explodes again. It puts out five stars. One of those stars explode and blows out five stars from it; and then one of them stars explodes and blows out five stars from it. See, it fades on out. That’s, what, the Seventh Seal. It just ends the time for the world. It ends the time for this. It ends the time for that. It ends the time for this. It ends the time. Everything just ended up on that Seventh Seal. Now, how is He going to do it? That’s what we don’t know. Isn’t it? We don’t know. It’s even the time for all these things, and the ushering in of the Millennium.
Notice, the breaking of this Seal was so great, that, Heaven was hushed by It, ‘in silence, for the space of a half hour.’”
The Seventh Seal is the Coming of the Lord, and let us see here on page 474 and 475 of the book of The Seals, it says:
“I don’t know who is going to… what’s going to take place. I do not know. I just know that those Seven Thunders holds that mystery. The Heavens was quiet.”
In other words, the Seven Thunders is the Mighty Angel speaking, Christ speaking as a Lion to His Church in the Last Day.
“I do not know. I just know that those Seven Thunders holds that mystery. The Heavens was quiet. Everybody understand?
It may be time, it may be the hour now, that this great person that we’re expecting to rise on the scene may arise on the scene. Maybe this ministry, that I have tried to take people back to the Word, has laid a foundation; and if it has, I’ll be leaving you, for good. There won’t be two of us here the same time. See? If it is, he’ll increase; I’ll decrease.”
There he is speaking of someone who would come after him, to whom he is preparing the way for.
On page 469 of this book of The Seals, says:
“And did you notice? ‘That one Angel,’ I said, ‘in there, was a strange Angel’ (in other words, very different from the rest). He looked more to me than any of the rest of Them. You remember that? They were in a constellation; three on a side, and one on top. And the one right next to me here, counting from the left to the right, would have been the seventh Angel. He was brighter, meant more to me than the rest of Them. You remember? I said, ‘He had His chest out, like that, and was flying eastward’ (you remember) ‘like that.’ I said, ‘It picked me up; lifted me up.’ You remember that?
Here It is, the one with the Seventh Seal…”
In other words, that Angel that was different from the rest is the One who has the Seventh Seal, is the messenger with the Seventh Seal, is the Angel who was with the rest of the angels or messengers of the church ages.
When Reverend William Branham is – was caught away in spirit and was there with the angels, he counted seven; and consequently, he is one of those who are there, and then they turn out to be eight. The seventh messenger is… he is the seventh angel counting the messenger of the ages, and the eighth Angel comes to be the Angel different from the rest, and he flew from West to East. In other words, those angels appear and they fly from West (American Continent) towards the East: Israel, Middle East.
It is the Angel, who consequently, has the ministry to be in the West with the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, and then in the East with the Hebrew people. It is as simple as that.
Just as the Jews under the ministry of Saint Peter, going to the house of the Roman centurion, and Saint Paul going to Asia Minor to the gentiles, and taking the Message of the Gospel; just as the Jews under the ministry of Saint Peter and Saint Paul brought the Message, the Gospel, to the gentiles, the gentiles will take it back to the Jews; and this will be through the ministries of Moses and Elijah, to whom Saint Peter and Saint Paul are the type and figure of that time.
Page 30 of the book of The Ages, says6:
“Now, when is the Gospel returning to the Jews? When the day of the Gentile is finished, the Gospel is ready, go to the Jews. Oh, I could, if I could just foretell you a little something that’s fixing to happen right here, see, right in this day. You see? It’s fixing to happen. We get it in the Church Age. And this great thing is fixing to happen, will carry over to Revelation 11 and pick up those two prophets, Elijah and the Moses returning back again for the Jews.”
What will take place is that the ministries of the Two Olive Trees will first be in the midst of Christianity, in the midst of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, in the Golden Age of the Church, which is the age that represents the most holy place in the temple that king Solomon built and the tabernacle prophet Moses built.
The Age of Cornerstone is the Most Holy Place of the spiritual Temple of Christ, which is His Church. That is where the Two Olive Trees will appear, the ministries of Moses and Elijah with the Lord, because He comes with His Angels.
“…those two prophets, Elijah and the Moses returning back again for the Jews. We’re ready for it. Everything is setting in order, just ready. This Gentile Message, as the Jews brought it to the Gentiles, the Gentiles will take it right back to the Jews again. And the Rapture will come.”
In other words, it is a very great sign for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ when we see that approach; because everything will be and is in the introduction to the Millennium.
That is why when the Jews see Christ, the Messiah, in the midst of His Church, they will say: “This is the One we are waiting for!”
Page 22, paragraph 176, says, speaking about the Jews, says7 [Quotations]:
“When they see Jesus coming for the Bride, they’ll say, “Lo, this is our God whom we waited on. That’s Him!” But He’s not coming for them; He come for His Bride.”
And in the book of The Seals, page 57, says, speaking of the Mighty Angel that descends from Heaven in Revelation 10, says8:
“‘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 is 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 Revelation 1? Same thing. Angel is a ‘messenger.’ And He’s the Messenger to Israel. See? The Church has been raptured, see, now, or fixing to be raptured. He comes for His Church.”
Who is He coming for? For His Church, because His Church is under the New Covenant, and the New Covenant is the one in effect; because when Christ died on the Cross, the seventieth week of Daniel, chapter 9 stopped there, the seventieth week stopped right in the middle.
And each week is seven years, the seventieth week consists of seven weeks. The three and a half years of the ministry of Christ ended halfway through that seventieth week, and that seventieth week stopped there. For which there are three and a half years left for Israel, of God dealing with them, which He will carry out in this end time when he completes the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ in this end time, in the introduction to the Millennial Kingdom of the Messiah.
Therefore we must be prepared, because from one moment to another the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ will be completed, and Christ will finish His work as High Priest and will begin His work as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the King of kings and Lord of lords; taking the Title Deed, the Book sealed with seven seals, which is the Title deed of eternal life, it is the Title Deed of all the Creation; it is the Book of Life where the names of all the sons and daughters of God are written, since before the foundation of the world; the Book that Adam had, the Title Deed that Adam had, which he lost and returned to the right hand of God, and has been at the right hand of God for thousands of years; and in the Last Day, in the introduction to the Millennial Kingdom of Christ, the Messiah, will be taken by the Messiah, by Christ, as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, and King of kings and Lord of lords, Judge of all the Earth.
He will take it from the right hand of god, He will open it in Heaven, and He will come and carry out His Work of Reclamation: He will reclaim everything He has redeemed with His precious Blood; He will go through Paradise, where the soul and heart of the believers in Christ is, those who have finished their lives here on Earth in human bodies and have physically died, and He will bring them with Him.
He will carry out a judgment there, which He has to carry out to the messengers of each age; and then He will come with them, with all the believers who are there in Paradise, in the sixth dimension; He will bring them, He will resurrect them in glorified and eternal and young bodies, and He will transform those of us who are alive; and we will all be glorified and young for all eternity.
And thus, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ will be together and complete, in glorified bodies; since the times of the apostles until now, all the believers in Christ being glorified, resurrected in glorified bodies, and those alive be transformed, we will be together for all eternity.
And we will be on Earth for 30 to 40 days with glorified bodies, as Christ already resurrected appeared to His disciples for 40 days, and then He ascended to Heaven with all those who He resurrected: Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, the patriarchs, all of them, the saints of the Old Testament; they al ascended with him in the Rapture of Christ, with the saints of the Old Testament.
Thus it will also be in this end time, in the introduction to the Millennium, which Christ will carry out in His Coming in this end time, His Coming to His Church; because just as the Light was in human flesh two thousand years ago, because the Word made flesh is the Light of the age when It is seen… Christ said that He was the Light, because the messianic promises of the First Coming of the Messiah were being fulfilled in Him, the Word is Light.
“Thy word is a lamp unto my feet, and a light unto my path.”9
When the Word is fulfilled, made a reality, is made flesh: that is the Light for the people.
Moses was the Light for the people, guiding them in the Divine Program for that time. The Pillar of Fire accompanied him, the Angel of the Covenant, who later became flesh and dwelled in human flesh in Jesus, because He is the Angel of the Covenant who came to establish the New Covenant.
That is why in the Holy Supper, at the last supper He had with His disciples, in Matthew, chapter 26, 26 to 29, says: “This is my body (when He broke the bread and gave them)… Take, eat; this is my body.” And giving the cup of wine, after He had given thanks to the Father, He gave it to His disciples, says: “Drink, this is my Blood of the New Covenant, which is shed for many.” In other words, He speaks of the New Covenant He would establish; and the Blood of the New Covenant was the Blood of Christ.
All of the believers in Christ are under the New Covenant covered with the Blood of the New Covenant, the Blood of Christ, which cleanses us of all sin.
Therefore, it is to His Church in the Last Day, at the final stage, that the Coming of Christ, the Light of the world, will come. And that corresponds to the West, the West, which is the American Continent; just as the First Coming of Christ was in the East, the East, in the midst of the Hebrew people, in the midst of the people that was under the Covenant in the effect for that time.
And for the people that is under the Covenant in effect of the end time, which is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ (who is under the New Covenant), for this end time, is the promise of the Second Coming of Christ with His Angels.
Notice, in the time of Jesus, Moses and Elijah also appeared. In other words, the manifestation of Moses and Elijah, the Two Olive Trees, accompanies the First and the Second Coming of Christ.
We are in a time of introduction to the Millennium and the Millennial Kingdom; therefore, let us be prepared, because the culminating part will be fulfilled in the realization of the Vision of the Tent, where the Reverend William Branham saw the Pillar of Fire fly, enter, It went into a small wooden room and the Pillar of Fire was there manifesting Himself, the Angel of the Covenant, Christ in Holy Spirit in the midst of the people who is under the New Covenant.
The fulfillment of the Vision of the Tent will bring the great victory in Divine Love, and that is why the Age of the Cornerstone is the Age of the Divine Love. It is in that age where the Vision of the Tent must be fulfilled, the Third Pull, the Voice of Christ crying out as when a lion roars, and giving us the revelation of the Seventh Seal, the revelation of His Coming.
That is all going to be given in the fulfillment of the Vision of the Tent. That is where the Jews are going to look and see, and say: “This is the One we are waiting for!” They will recognize Him.
But first, who is going to recognize Him? The Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, in that manifestation. They are going to recognize that He is Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, in the Pillar of Fire visiting His Church in the Age of the Cornerstone, just as He visited His Church in the Pillar of Fire, from age to age. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
Just as He accompanied the Hebrew people in the Dispensation of the Law, He has been accompanying His Church from age to age. He said: “I am with you always, even unto the end of the world.10” How? Well, in Holy Spirit, in that Pillar of Fire also called the Angel of the Covenant, which is Christ in Holy Spirit in the midst of His Church.
See how simple the introduction to the Millennium is? It is the Seventh Seal, Christ in the midst of His Church introducing the Millennium for His Church and also for the Jews.
When the Vision of the Tent is being fulfilled, we will hear about these mysteries of the Program of God more openly. Meanwhile, we should not speak too clearly about this subject of “THE INTRODUCTION TO THE MILLENNIUM,” so that impersonators do not take the things that are revealed and use them for their own benefit, take advantage for their own benefit; as they did in past times in the different stages of Judaism and Christianity.
Be aware, reading the messages of Reverend William Branham on the internet or the books that are provided to you, because the Message the Holy Spirit gave through Reverend William Branham is the Message that foreruns the Second Coming of Christ. In other words, it will be as it was spoken by the Holy Spirit through Reverend William Branham. That is what the Message of Reverend William Branham is for. That is why he said: “If I am not here when he comes, this Message will introduce him.”
Let us read it as he said it… page 119, paragraph 1058 of the book of Quotations, says11:
“I may be building a platform for somebody else to step on. I may be taken before that time… But I do believe, that we are so close, that I would never die with old age. Yet, at fifty-four years old, I’ll never die with old age, until He’s here. See? Unless I’m shot, killed, or something other, some way killed, just old age wouldn’t kill me, until He’s come.”
In other words, he believed that he would not die of old age, from being elderly, until the Coming of the Lord be fulfilled. Currently, he would be 100 and something years old, around 106 years old. So…
“I may not do it, but this Message will introduce Jesus Christ to the world. For, ‘As John the Baptist was sent to forerun the first coming, so is the Message to forerun the second Coming.’”
In other words, what Reverend William Branham says… he says that he would not died of old age, from being elderly, until Christ would be here in His promised Coming.
So the Seventh Seal being the Coming of the Lord is the greatest mystery of all the mysteries; and God through the Reverend William Branham ⏤speaking the Message he was given⏤, with that Message he introduces the Second Coming of Christ. It must be fulfilled as he said it would be for the introduction of the Millennium in this end time; because the Seventh Seal introduces the Millennium. Christ Himself introduces the Millennium in the Last Day.
Let us be prepared because every problem will be solved in the fulfillment of the Vision of the Tent; everything that is promised and that was shown to Reverend William Branham will be fulfilled in the Vision of the Tent.
The Third Pull will be fulfilled in the Vision of the Tent; and I will receive the blessings that are promised for that time. And who else? Each one of you as well. And we will obtain the great victory in Divine Love.
We will receive the faith, the revelation to be transformed, we will receive the revelation of the Seventh Seal, which will give us the faith of transformation and rapture or catching away; the way things are on this planet Earth, I would not want to be here on Earth for a long time.
But where are we going to go? We have no place to go. But Christ does have a place to where He can take us to be for a time period of three and a half years: to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, while Earth will be going through those three and a half years of purification, the Earth being prepared for the Kingdom of the Messiah.
“THE INTRODUCTION TO THE MILLENNIUM.”
It has been a great privilege for me to be with you on this occasion, giving you the subject: “THE INTRODUCTION TO THE MILLENNIUM.”
If there is someone who has not yet received Christ as Savior, you may do so at this time and we will be praying for you; for which you may come to the front. And also those who are in other nations, who have not yet received Christ as Savior, so that Christ receives you in His Kingdom, forgives you and with His Blood cleanse you from all sin; and be baptized in water in the Name of the Lord, and Christ baptize you with Holy Spirit and Fire, and bring forth the new birth in you.
Remember that Christ said that he who is not born again, of the Water and of the Spirit, can not enter into the Kingdom of God. (John, chapter 3, verses 1 to 6).
You may continue coming to the Feet of Christ in other nations, so that Christ receives you in His Kingdom and blesses you with salvation and eternal life.
Children 10 years and older may also come to the Feet of Christ our Savior, since Christ said12: “Suffer little children, and forbid them not, to come unto me: for of such is the kingdom of heaven.”
Children also have the right to salvation and eternal life; and we can not take away the rights children have to eternal life by receiving Christ as Savior when they are aware of good and evil.
Let us stand up to pray for the persons who have come to the Feet of Christ on this occasion in different countries.
With our heads bowed and our eyes closed:
Heavenly Father, in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ I come to You, giving you thanks for Your blessings, thanks for Your salvation and eternal life You give us, You have given us through Christ. I come to Toy with all these persons who in different countries are receiving Christ as only and sufficient Savior. Receive them in Your Kingdom. I pray to You in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
And now repeat this prayer after me, all those who are coming to the Feet of Christ on this occasion:
Lord Jesus Christ, I heard the preaching of Your Gospel and Your faith was born in my heart, in my soul.
I believe in You with all my soul. I believe in Your First Coming and I believe in Your Name as the only name under Heaven, given unto men, whereby we must be saved. I believe in Your death on Calvary’s Cross as the Sacrifice of Atonement for our sins.
I believe in You with all my heart. I acknowledge that I am a sinner and I need a Savior, a Redeemer.
I give public testimony of my faith in You and Your faith in me, and I receive You as my only and sufficient Savior. I pray that you forgive my sins and with Your Blood cleanse me of all sin, and baptize me with Holy Spirit and Fire after I am baptized in water in Your Name; and bring forth the new birth in me.
I want to be born in Your Kingdom, I want to live eternally with You in Your Kingdom. I pray to You in Your Eternal and glorious Name, Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.
And now, you may ask: “When can you baptize me? Because I heard the preaching of the Gospel of Christ and the faith of Christ was born in my soul, and I have received Him as my only and sufficient Savior.”
Since you have believed with all your heart, you may be baptized; and may Christ baptize you with Holy Spirit and Fire, and bring forth the new birth in you.
The baptism in water is typological. Water does not take away sin, it is the Blood of Christ that cleanses us of all sin; but the baptism in water is a commandment of the Lord Jesus Christ, who said: “Go ye into all the world, and preach the gospel to every creature. He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth not shall be damned.” (Mark, chapter 16, verses 15 to 16).
It is a matter of life or death, salvation or condemnation: Believe and you shall be saved, receive eternal life; or do not believe and be condemned, and you will not have eternal life to live in the Kingdom of Christ (in other words, cease to exist). But he who believes in Christ will live eternally in the Kingdom of Christ our Savior.
In the baptism in water, the person identifies with Christ in His death, burial and resurrection. That is why when you receive Christ as Savior, you died to the world; when you are being submerged into the baptismal water, you are being typologically buried; and when you are raised from the baptismal waters, you are resurrecting to a new life: an eternal life with Christ in His eternal Kingdom; and then Christ baptizes you with Holy Spirit and Fire, and produces the new birth in the person. It is as simple as that.
Therefore, all those who have received Christ as Savior on this occasion, in different countries, may be baptized. And children 10 years and older, who have received Christ as Savior, may also be baptized in the Name of the Lord. And we will continue to see each other eternally in the Kingdom of Christ our Savior.
May God continue blessing all of you, and remember the subject: “THE INTRODUCTION TO THE MILLENNIUM.”
All of this is happening in the introduction to the Millennium, God calling the last ones who will complete His Church.
God bless all of you greatly.
I leave Reverend Jose Benjamin Perez with you to continue, and in each country I leave the corresponding minister, so he may tell you what to do to be baptized, those who have received Christ as Savior on this occasion.
May you all have a good afternoon, and may Christ accompany you every day of your lives.
