On this occasion we will read Revelation, chapter 20, verses 4 and on (4 to 6), 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.”
May God bless our souls with His Word and allow us to understand It.
Today we will have the introduction to next Sunday’s Bible school. The subject for next Sunday is: “THE INTRODUCTION TO THE MILLENNIUM.” And today we will have the introduction to the subject: “THE INTRODUCTION TO THE MILLENNIUM.”
The Millennial Kingdom, the Millennium, which comes to be, the seventh millennium from Adam until now; which is also typified on Saturday, which is the seventh day of the week; just as for the Jews, the seventh day of the week is dedicated to God, it is the Day of the Lord, and Christ said that the Son of Man is the Lord of Saturday, in other words, the day of rest, dedicated to God; likewise, the seventh millennium belongs to God, for the Kingdom of God to be established on Earth and for the Messiah to reign over mankind for one thousand years.
That is the Day of the Lord before God, which for men is one thousand years and for God it is one day; “because one day is with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.1”
The introduction to that Kingdom of the Messiah is carried out by the Mighty Angel that descends from Heaven with the Little Book opened in His hand, which is the Coming of the Lord, the Coming of the Mighty Angel that descends from Heaven in Revelation, chapter 10, verse 1 to 11, and He cries out as when a lion roars.
Therefore, He comes as a Lion, not as a Lamb, with the Title Deed, the Book sealed with seven seals, that He takes in Heaven and opens it in Revelation, chapter 5; and in chapter 6 and other chapters, He opens those Seals; and in Revelation 11 the Seventh Seal is opened and causes silence in Heaven for about half an hour.
That is the Lord coming as a Lion, as King, with the Title Deed to claim back everything He has redeemed with His precious Blood.
It draws our attention that cries He out as when a lion roars and seven thunders utter their voices. It is the Voice of Christ speaking as a Lion, just as He spoke during the seven stages or ages of the Church to each messenger, and through each messenger to His Church; and He called and gathered His elect of each age who were making up the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, the spiritual Temple of Christ, from age to age.
But now in Revelation, chapter 10, He cries as a Lion and calls and gathers His elect in the Mystical Body of Christ, in the Age of the Cornerstone, to complete His Church crowning His Church with the group of the Last Day; wherein Christ in Holy Spirit ascends from the seventh age to the Age of the Cornerstone to call and gather His elect of the Last Day.
And some day, just as God revealed the story of each age through Reverend William Branham, He will reveal the mystery of the Age of the Cornerstone and of the elect of the Last Day, which He will place in His Mystical Body of believers in the highest part of His Church, which is the Age of the Cornerstone, the capstone of the Bride-Tree ⏤which is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ⏤ where He will fulfill the prophecies of the Last Day promised for His Church, and where He will give the faith to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb; which He will do crying as when a lion roars and seven thunders uttering their voices, which will be revealed to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; Christ will speak to them in the Last Day in the Age of the Cornerstone, and He will reveal the mystery of the Coming of the Mighty Angel that descends from Heaven with the Little Book open in His hand, and the work He will be doing in this end time.
Therefore, let us be prepared with our hearts and spiritual ears open to hear the Voice of Christ, not in past ages but in the Age of the Cornerstone, where He has taken us up to. And He is in that stage because the seven church ages have already passed; and He is no longer in the seventh stage, but has ascended to the Age of the Cornerstone, and He calls and gathers His elect in the Age of the Cornerstone, as He says in Revelation, chapter 4: “Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.”
Just as He called out Lazarus to come out of the sepulcher, He calls His elect to the Age of the Cornerstone, to the top of that spiritual Temple, which is found in the most important stage for the manifestation of the Stone cut without hands: the Cornerstone, who is Christ; who also was the Headstone in His First Coming, and will be the Cornerstone in His Second Coming; the Headstone that will smite the image (the kingdom of the gentiles) in the feet of iron and clay, which is the stage where the kingdom of the gentiles is in this end time; so that the Stone cut without hands grows and becomes the Kingdom of God, which will be a worldwide Kingdom, the Kingdom of the Messiah, the Empire of the Messiah that will bring peace to humanity, and will bring all the blessings promised for the Messianic Kingdom, which will last for one thousand years.
Therefore, it will be one thousand years of peace, love, prosperity and of knowledge of God; “because the earth shall be filled with the knowledge of the glory of the Lord, as the waters cover the sea,” according to Habakkuk, chapter 2, verse 14; and also Isaiah, chapter 11, verse 9.
The human race, which will live in the Kingdom of the Messiah, will reach the knowledge of God through the revealed knowledge of the Word of God, because the God Creator of the Heavens and Earth will be made known, who will be reigning through the Messiah on this planet Earth; and that will be the restoration of the Kingdom of David (which is the Kingdom of God on Earth) and the Throne of David, to which Christ is heir according to the words of the Angel Gabriel to the virgin Mary in Luke, chapter 1, verse 30 to 36.
It is there where Christ said He will sit the overcomer with Him: “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.” (Revelation, chapter 3, verse 21).
Therefore, the overcomer of the Last Day will reign with Christ… Christ says: “As I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.”
The overcomer is always the messenger of each age, heading the group of each age. Likewise, the patriarchs, the twelve patriarchs, they sit in twelve thrones in the Kingdom of God (in Revelation, chapter 20), which we saw in the reading we had at the beginning; but there are twenty four elders sitting on twenty four thrones; they are kings. Those are the twelve patriarchs, Jacob’s sons, and the twelve apostles of Jesus. Judas will not be there; another was placed instead of Judas Iscariot, who lost the blessing of sitting with Christ on a throne to judge the twelve tribes of Israel. In other words, each apostle will have one tribe. They are also judges, kings, and priests.
It is also important to know that they are kings of the Kingdom of God, the Kingdom of David, and that is why they sit on thrones; and the seven… the twelve, are twelve patriarchs and twelve apostles, the twenty four elders. And the seven messengers of the seven church ages deal with the gentiles, because the seven ages correspond to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ going through seven stages among the gentiles.
Therefore, they also have a position like the position of the twelve apostles, but among the gentiles, with the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, which is the Queen, and the Messiah is the King; who will reign this planet Earth with Christ. Because the Messiah, the Prince of Peace, will reign over the planet Earth and peace will be spread to all nations, the peace the soul of the human being so much longs for.
The seven messengers of the seven church ages, like the seven ages, are represented in the Lamb: the seven horns are the seven Church ages and the seven eyes are the seven messengers in whom the Spirit of God, the Holy Spirit was, traveling the Earth from age to age: from Asia Minor, then in Europe in the following five ages (plus Asia’s age, they are six); and then the seventh age in North America, in Reverend William Branham. Because the seven eyes are the seven spirits of God that travel all the Earth in the seven messengers, one for each age, through whom He spoke to His Church and all humanity, calling and gathering the elect from all ages.
And where do the Two Olive Trees appear? The seven eyes are in the seven horns, but on the forehead of the Lamb – there are two eyes on the forehead of a lamb. The Two Olive Trees are there, the Two Candlesticks of God from Zechariah, chapter 4, verses 1 to 14, where the seven spirits of God are, who travel all the Earth; and Revelation, chapter 11, verses 1 to 14. These are the Two Olive Trees and the Two Candlesticks who are before the presence of God; and these must be manifested on Earth, at the Last Day, for the introduction to the Millennial Kingdom.
The Reverend William Branham tells us about the introduction to the Millennium on page 164 and 165 of the book The Seven Seals in Spanish, this version, what the introduction of the Millennium will be… page 464 and 4652:
“Now, we’ll turn now to the 8th verse of the—or the 1st verse, I mean, of the 8th chapter, of Revelations 8:1. I know you’re tired (but here you are not tired; neither are those there in the transmission; but back in that day it was a more difficult time, maybe more difficult than now, because there were more people and surely they were too hot; but here we want to be as awake as possible). Now, just try to listen just for a few minutes now. And God of heaven help us, is my prayer. We must remember that this Seventh Seal is the end of time of all things (in other words, it puts an end to everything; the end of all things is in the Seventh Seal. Now, let us continue reading). 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 is 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 Revelations the 7th chap—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 this time, the end of the—of the—at the end of this Seventh Seal (now if there is a beginning, there is also an end). Notice, it’s the end of the church age. It’s the—the end of the Seven Seals. It’s the end of the trumpets. It’s the end of the vials, and even ends the ushering in of the Millennium; that’s on the Seventh Seal.
It’s just like firing a rocket into the air.”
In other words, those rockets that are shot into the air during Christmas and they explode… those fireworks that they shoot and explode and many little stars come out and then another explosion comes from those little stars, and more stars come out; that is how he is explaining it. It is not a rocket like those that are launched to the moon. He is referring to those that are shot during festivities and during parties that are carried out, such as on Independence Day and things like that, that is when they can shoot those fireworks.
Now, we continue reading. It says:
“And that rocket explodes here (you know that when they are released it makes an explosion)<em>; and it goes up, then it explodes again. It puts out five stars. One of those (stars) explodes and blows out five stars from it; and then one of them stars explodes, blows out five stars from it (in other words, there are some explosions coming from that rocket that was shot)<em>; 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 means the time for that. It ends the time for this. It ends the time… Everything just ended up on that Seventh Seal (in other words, everything ends with the Coming of the Lord). 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.”
In other words, that is what introduces or is the introduction to the Millennium; what happens before the establishment of the Millennial Kingdom of Christ.
Therefore, we will be seeing the Seventh Seal with these different manifestations, which will be the Voice of Christ speaking to us and producing different things that are in the Program of God already established to be carried out by Christ in this end time.
The promises made for this end time will be fulfilled by Christ in the midst of His Church, who is in the midst of His Church since the Day of Pentecost, in Holy Spirit, and that is why ⏤through His Church using different messengers, revealing His Word for each age and speaking through them⏤ He has been calling and gathering His elect from stage to stage, in His Mystical Body of believers, which is His Church, His Fold.
Remember that He is the Good Shepherd and the believers in Christ are the sheep of the Good Shepherd, who hear His Voice by the Holy Spirit through the messengers of each stage; and for the Last Day the believers in Christ will be hearing the Voice of Christ in the midst of His Church in the stage of the Age of Cornerstone, the Golden Age of the Church of the Lord; that stage or age being parallel to the stage of the First Coming of Christ among the Hebrew people.
We are in a very important time, wherein God will be carrying out the introduction to the Millennial Kingdom. For which He will call and gather His elect of the Last Day in the stage of the Age of Cornerstone and He will prepare them by revealing to them His Word for that stage; and will give them the revelation of the Seventh Seal and will give them ⏤consequently⏤ the faith to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
Remember that the Voice of Christ crying as when a lion roars and seven thunders uttering their voices, is the Voice of Christ speaking to His Church as the Lion; and the Thunders, which is the Voice of Christ, will give His Church the faith to be changed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
Therefore, in this end time we must be with our spiritual eyes and spiritual ears wide open; and our soul, our heart, open hearing the Word of the Lord; so that our faith is born and grows in our soul, in our heart; and thus we take advantage of this stage of introduction to the Millennial Kingdom because it is the Seventh Seal ⏤Christ⏤ the One who introduces the Millennium on this planet Earth.
The introduction for the Bible School of next Sunday, under the title: “THE INTRODUCTION TO THE MILLENNIUM,” which we have had as an introduction to on this occasion. And next Sunday we will speak with some additional details about this important topic, based on God’s promises for His people: the Jews and Christianity; and it is what God will be doing in this end time.
And someday He will reveal to us how He has done everything in this end time, but that will be opened later on. And if we are aware, with our spiritual eyes open and our ears attentive to hear what the Holy Spirit says to His Church in the Last Day, we will be aware of what God will be doing in this time and what He has done already in this time that we have been allotted to live.
It has been a great privilege for me to be with you on today’s subject, which is the introduction of the subject we will have next Sunday: “THE INTRODUCTION TO THE MILLENNIUM.”
I will be with you next Sunday, God willing, to continue; and from any country, I will also be with you on Fridays, for the introduction to the subject of Sundays Bible schools.
I hope that the missionary Miguel Bermudez Marin, wherever he is, can speak to us a couple of minutes on Fridays (less than an hour), and we both will be speaking to you, it does not matter where he is or where I will be, it is possible through communications; like today: he is in Medellin, Colombia, and we have already heard him.
I thank him (and we all thank him) that he spoke to us in this evening, and what He said was heard in other countries, and we join what he said with that which I spoke and we make that introduction on Fridays for the Bible school, so that we can understand better the teaching of Sunday’s Bible school.
We are expecting great blessings from God, great divine revelation of the Word of God for our time, of the Program of God for our time. And my desire is that we reach such knowledge that when the Seventh Seal is open, we can say: “I already knew it, in my soul, in my heart; and I believed it like this, what the Seventh Seal would be when it would be opened.” Remember that it is the mystery of the Coming of the Lord.
Reverend William Branham said in the message “Christ is the mystery of God revealed,” page 14 in Spanish: “The Seventh Seal has not been open yet, and it is a good thing that it has not been opened yet (something like that) when and how He will come.” When He comes and how He comes, there is a great mystery there.
Therefore, every Friday we will have an introduction to the message… or to the study of Sunday Bible school, Friday will be the introduction; and then on Sunday we will have the Bible school to learn of God.
Remember that God says and Christ says: “And every child will be taught by God.” In other words, this is through the Holy Spirit of God, teaching through His messengers from age to age, just as He taught through Christ; likewise, He has been teaching His Church from age to age through the Holy Spirit, for He said3: “The Holy Spirit will come and teach all things.”
Therefore, the revealed teaching of God through the messengers of God for His Church is a work of the Holy Spirit. That is how it has always been and how it will be in this end time.
May the blessings of Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, be upon all of you and upon me also; and may He prosper you spiritually and materially as well, and may He use you greatly in His Kingdom in this end time.
May God bless you and keep you all. In the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
I leave with you Reverend Jose Benjamin Perez to conclude, and in each country I leave the corresponding minister.
May God bless you and keep you. Continue having a happy evening filled with the blessings of Christ our Savior.
“THE INTRODUCTION TO THE MILLENNIUM.”
