The father of the family

Good afternoon, beloved friends and brethren present and viewers. It is a great blessing for me to be with you again, to share a few moments around the Word of God and see where we are in the Divine Program in this end time.

For which I want to read in Luke, chapter 13, verses 22 to 30, and it says like this:

“And he went through the cities and villages, teaching, and journeying toward Jerusalem.

Then said one unto him, Lord, are there few that be saved? And he said unto them,

Strive to enter in at the strait gate: for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.

When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are:

Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.

But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.

There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.

And they shall come from the east, and from the west, and from the north, and from the south, and shall sit down in the kingdom of God.

And, behold, there are last which shall be first, and there are first which shall be last.”

May God bless our souls with His Word and allow us to understand It.

Our subject for this occasion is: “THE FATHER OF THE FAMILY.”

We find, throughout the Scripture, that Christ has placed different parables in relation to the end time, to this time in which we live, which is the time of the Last Day; and for this time is that Christ spoke those prophecies, where he tells us:

“When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are.”

Christ spoke of this same thing in the parable of the ten virgins; and He says, in this parable of the ten virgins, He says that the virgins all arose and trimmed their lamps; but there was a part of the virgins that had no oil in their lamps, and see how they said… He says: “Then all those virgins arose…” Matthew 25, verse 6 and on, says:

“And at midnight there was a cry made, Behold, the bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet him.

Then all those virgins arose, and trimmed their lamps.

And the foolish said unto the wise, Give us of your oil; for our lamps are gone out.

But the wise answered, saying, Not so; lest there be not enough for us and you: but go ye rather to them that sell, and buy for yourselves.

And while they went to buy, the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.

Afterward came also the other virgins, saying, Lord, Lord, open to us.

But he answered and said, Verily I say unto you, I know you not.

Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.”

Here we have seen two places where Christ speaks to us about the Father of the Family in one of these passages; and in the other He speaks to us about the Coming of the Bridegroom, and those who were ready went in with Him to the Marriage, and the door was shut.

The Door, Christ, in John, chapter 10, told us who it was. See here: John, chapter 10, says:

“Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that entereth not by the door into the sheepfold, but climbeth up some other way, the same is a thief and a robber.

But he that entereth in by the door is the shepherd of the sheep.

To him the porter openeth; and the sheep hear his voice: and he calleth his own sheep by name, and leadeth them out.”

Now notice that there is a doorman, who is in charge of opening or closing the door.

“And when he putteth forth his own sheep, he goeth before them, and the sheep follow him: for they know his voice.

And a stranger will they not follow, but will flee from him: for they know not the voice of strangers.

This parable spake Jesus unto them: but they understood not what things they were which he spake unto them.

Then said Jesus unto them again, Verily, verily, I say unto you, I am the door of the sheep.

All that ever came before me are thieves and robbers: but the sheep did not hear them.

I am the door: by me if any man enter in, he shall be saved, and shall go in and out, and find pasture.

The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly (that is, eternal life).

I am the good shepherd: the good shepherd giveth his life for the sheep.

But he that is an hireling, and not the shepherd, whose own the sheep are not, seeth the wolf coming, and leaveth the sheep, and fleeth: and the wolf catcheth them, and scattereth the sheep.

The hireling fleeth, because he is an hireling, and careth not for the sheep.

I am the good shepherd, and know my sheep, and am known of mine.

As the Father knoweth me, even so know I the Father: and I lay down my life for the sheep.

And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.

Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.

No man taketh it from me, but I lay it down of myself. I have power to lay it down, and I have power to take it again. This commandment have I received of my Father.”

Now, here we see that the Door is Christ; and we can see that here, there being a door, Christ says that the doorman opens it to Him: to the Shepherd of the sheep.

He said that He also had other sheep that were not of that Hebrew fold, in other words, they were from among the gentiles, which, He says:

“And other sheep I have, which are not of this fold: them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.”

These sheep are the sons and daughters of God from among the gentiles, who from age to age were to be called by Christ (Christ manifested in the messenger of each age) and were to be gathered into the Fold of the Lord, into the Flock of the Lord, from age to age; and that is what has been happening from stage to stage, from age to age, in the Program of Jesus Christ; and He has been calling and gathering His sheep, from age to age, through the manifestation that He has had through the messenger of each age.

That Fold of the Lord or Flock of the Lord is the Mystical Body of Christ, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, where He calls and gathers all His sheep, which enter through the Door, which is Christ.

Now, He said that the Door was narrow, and He said that many would seek to enter and would not be able to enter. He said to enter by that Door and to force ourselves to enter by it: “Strive to enter by the door, for the door is narrow.¹” The door that leads where to? To eternal life.

Now, the door that leads to ruin and destruction and to the lake of fire is wide, Christ says, and many are those who enter through that door.

Now, in the Mystical Body of Christ, which is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, that narrow Door is open, that Door which leads to eternal life; and that is our beloved Lord Jesus Christ.

Saint Paul says, in chapter 3, verses 5 and on, of his letter to the Hebrews:

“And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after;

But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.”

Now, every house has a door through which one enters, and we have a Door in the House of God; and though it is narrow, it is the only entrance to the House of God. That Door is Christ. He said: “I am the Door.” He is the Door of the sheep, He is the Door of the Lord’s Fold, He is the Door of the Church to enter through Him.

And that is why from age to age we have been entering through that Door into the Mystical Body of Christ: by believing in our beloved Lord Jesus Christ as our Savior, by washing our sins away in the Blood of Christ and by receiving His Holy Spirit. That is the way that —through that Door— we have entered the House of God, which is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

And now, we have the prophecy for the end time, that the Door will be closed. And it says in the parable of the ten virgins that when the Bridegroom came, those who were ready went in with Him to the Marriage and the Door was shut. And who is the one who closes the Door? It says:

“When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are.”

And then He begins to say what will be happening with those who remained outside the Mystical Body of the Lord Jesus Christ. Those who were left on the other side of the Door, let’s see what will happen to them, He says:

“Then shall ye begin to say, We have eaten and drunk in thy presence, and thou hast taught in our streets.

But he shall say, I tell you, I know you not whence ye are; depart from me, all ye workers of iniquity.

There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth, when ye shall see Abraham, and Isaac, and Jacob, and all the prophets, in the kingdom of God, and you yourselves thrust out.”

Now, you see how Christ shows us here that a time of mourning will come for all those people who didn’t enter the Mystical Body of Christ through the Door, which is Christ, to receive Christ as their Savior, to wash their sins in the Blood of Christ and to receive His Holy Spirit; and thus to enter through that Door into the Mystical Body of Christ and to become part of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, which is composed of the born-again.

And now see how this prophecy will be being fulfilled in this end time. When our beloved Lord Jesus Christ leaves the Throne of Intercession in Heaven, the Door will be closed, and there will be no more opportunity for any person; and whoever is unclean will have no opportunity to be cleansed, because the Blood of the Lamb will no longer be on the Throne of Intercession in Heaven; and if He is not in Heaven, on the Throne of Intercession, then no person can be cleansed by the Blood of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ. There will be no more intercession on behalf of Christ as High Priest and Lamb of God there in Heaven; therefore, from that moment on, he who is dirty will get dirtier, but he who is clean… he who is clean, in other words… let’s see how He says it.

In Revelation it speaks of this prophecy to be fulfilled in the end time, and teaches us that that time will come when he who is clean will be justified more, but he who is unclean will no longer be able to be cleansed. In the book of Revelation, also in the book of the prophet Daniel, it tells us about this end time.

Now, we can see that this is for the end time. And because it is for the end time, it is in the end time that the Door will close and there will no longer be an opportunity for people to receive salvation. And that is when the Father of the Family, Christ in His final manifestation, will arise; He says He’s the Father of the Family.

And see how from age to age Jesus Christ has been sending messengers to place them in His House, in His Church, which is His Mystical Body of believers; and to give them spiritual food in due time, to each one of His children, in the age they are given to live, through each angel messenger. We find that that messenger came, for in every angel messenger Jesus Christ has been manifested in Holy Spirit, and through these messengers He has been feeding His children from age to age.

We have seen that those faithful and wise servants have been the messengers that Christ has sent from age to age, during the seven gentile Church ages and during the Age of the Cornerstone.

Now, it is in the time of the Age of the Cornerstone where the Door is going to be closed; and from then on there will be no more opportunity for salvation, there will be no more opportunity to be prepared, transformed and raptured; because those who were already prepared, the wise virgins, with oil in their lamps (in other words, with the Holy Spirit), entered with Christ to the Marriage, in the Coming of Christ in this end time. It says:

“…the bridegroom came; and they that were ready went in with him to the marriage: and the door was shut.”

Now, we can see that after a certain time there will be no more opportunity for people to receive Christ as their Savior, to wash their sins in the Blood of Christ and to receive the Spirit of Christ, and thus to become part of the Mystical Body of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Now, let’s see something very important that was said by the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, something that we need to see and understand clearly, because otherwise we couldn’t understand what will be happening in this Last Day.

For this end time, we have the promise of a ministry that will do great things, great wonders; and that ministry that will do great wonders will be the ministry of the Two Olive Trees, the ministry of Moses and Elijah, the ministry of Revelation, chapter 11; and those ministries will be the ones that will be here on Earth, in this end time, carrying out those wonders; but let’s see what the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ tells us. He teaches us in the message “Souls that are in prison now”, he says²:

“Lord Jesus, I have done the best that I know how. I’ve done all that I know how. Grant, Lord, that the mercy doors are still open. Of these hundreds, literally hundreds seeking Thee at this time, take away every sinful blot, Lord, and take them in today.

I—I plead, with all my heart, as we see not only somebody talking, but, the Scripture Itself bringing us to this hour. And that vision, of a little boy, seeing those people in that condition; and now, think, that hell itself, mercy has been blotted from the earth, and now hell itself is here, and the people, Lord, are in this hideous condition.

O Mighty God, on this Elected Church, I pray, God, that You’ll pour out Your blessings, that they might receive a—a ministry of testimony, that like Lot had, like Noah had, like Jesus had, unto the Eternal lost, if it be there; that they themselves are sealed into the Kingdom of God, but giving witness to Jesus Christ being the same yesterday, today, and forever.”

Now, you see how we have the promise that there will be a ministry that will do great wonders; but our brother Branham is asking if the Door is closed or not already closed. On this same page 52, he says³:

“Is there grace left, Lord? Let me be wrong on this, Lord. Let it be wrong at this time. That I, it isn’t, that people still can be saved.”

So, our brother Branham, seeing how things were at that time, thought that the Scripture of the Door might be already being fulfilled, and then people would not have the opportunity to enter the Mystical Body of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Now, we find that there will be a ministry for the end time; and that ministry that will be in the end time, when it begins to do great wonders, great miracles, when it begins with those signs at the international level (which are the miracles that are promised for the ministry of Moses and Elijah), the Door will already be closed for humanity, and the elect will already be all in the Mystical Body of Christ, and all the elect will already be transformed.

See here, it says on page 29, of the book “Souls that are in prison now”, or from this message “Souls that are in prison now”, it says⁴:

“And if she rejects mercy, she can cross the separating line where there is no place for her no more. And then where is she at, with her painted eyes, her cut hair? And she’s across the line, with no way to come back, and there’s got to be a ministry preached to her. But remember, at that time, it’s all over. It’s done. It’s just a haunting.

There will be a ministry that will show great wonders, Joel said so, but there’ll be no time for redemption. It’s all over. The Lamb has done took His Book, and His redeemed is over. As Jesus first preached and was rejected, and then went and haunted those that were in there, preached to them that were in prison, could not repent, no time for salvation, that same ministry will have to repeat again.”

And that is also the ministry of Christ in that stage, in that Third Pull, with great wonders and signs, where the ministries of Moses and Elijah will also be manifested and will be carrying out great wonders and signs.

“What if that could be the Third Pull? to the Eternal lost. What if it is there? I hope it’s not. What if it is? Think of it just a minute now. What if it is? God forbid. I got children. See? But it sure looks pretty close here.”

So he, being a prophet, is focusing his prophetic vision on what will be in this end time when Jesus Christ, the Lamb of God, leaves the Throne of Intercession in Heaven and the Door of Salvation is already closed, the Door of Mercy is closed. And what will be happening? The ministry of Christ, with the ministries of Moses and Elijah, will be performing great wonders, miracles and signs.

But with those wonders, signs and miracles, the attention of the Hebrew people will be drawn, and they will say: “This is what we are waiting for.” But there will be no more mercy for the world: the Door will be closed for the gentiles; and within a short time, after that Third Pull ministry begins, then, within a short time, the judgments of the great tribulation will begin.

It says (let’s see what it goes on to say):

“Why did that vision come when I was a kid? Why did I never think of it before? Why did that trance come there in the room the other day, say, ‘Here it is’? It’s right in the midst of the un-… the—the souls lost. And Jesus preached to them, witnessed, but they—they never repented.”

When Jesus descended into hell, into the fifth dimension, He preached to the imprisoned souls who were disobedient in Noah’s time⁵; but they didn’t repent, for it was not a Message calling them to repentance; it was too late for repentance, for they had already crossed the line and were already in hell.</sup>

Now, he says that hell is going to be on Earth; and by that time when Christ with the ministries of Moses and Elijah will be manifested in the end time, in the fulfillment of the Third Pull (the fulfillment of the Third Pull already producing miracles and wonders worldwide), by that time the Door will be closed.

Now, notice, he continues to say:

“And more I preach, the worse they get. There is no repentance. No place for it. The Lamb took His Book when, the Seventh Seal just ready for it to be opened, the Sixth Seal. Remember, He hid the Seventh Seal from us. He wouldn’t do it. When the Angel stood, day by day, telling it, but then He wouldn’t do it on that one (that is, He didn’t do it with this Seventh Seal). Said, ‘There is silence in Heaven.’ No one knew. It was the Coming of the Lord.”

Now see how for this end time that Third Pull will come performing great wonders and miracles, but remember, there will be a time in that stage where the Door will be closed.

And see, with the Door closed and the elect beside it inside the Door in the House of God, Christ will be performing great wonders and signs in the House of God; and the whole world will see those wonders and signs.

And see how, just as in the vision that our brother Branham saw, where he saw the Spirit of God, the Pillar of Fire, fly into a little room; and he saw that in that little room the Pillar of Fire was manifesting Himself, and was speaking to another who was higher than he was…

Because, you see, Saint Paul was in the first age (down here</em>); but above Saint Paul came Irenaeus, and above Irenaeus came Martin, and above Martin came Columba, and above Columba came Luther, and above Luther came Wesley, above Wesley came our brother Branham (the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ); and above him came the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ: in the Age of the Cornerstone.

And just as He was manifested in each age through the messenger of each age, He will be manifested in the Age of the Cornerstone.

Now, in the manifestation of the Holy Spirit, of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit through His Angel Messenger, the first thing He does is to call and gather His elect in this end time while the Door is open; because He can’t call and gather them while the Door is closed, because they can’t enter with the Door closed. The Door has to be open in the House of God in order to enter and to receive the spiritual food relevant to this end time, which is the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, which revolves around the Second Coming of Christ, and thus be well fed in the House of God.

And then the Door will be closed when the last of the elect has entered in; and Christ will finish His Work of Intercession in Heaven and will leave the Throne of Intercession; and there will no longer be Blood there, on the Mercy Seat of the Temple which is in Heaven: the Blood will be taken away by the High Priest Jesus Christ there in Heaven, because He will have already finished making the intercession for all the elect of God, written in the Lamb’s Book of Life since before the foundation of the world.

And from there on Christ takes His Book, the Lamb’s Book of Life, which is the Book of the Seven Seals (which appears in Revelation, chapter 5), and opens it in Heaven and brings it open in Heaven; but He already comes manifested as Judge, He comes manifested as Judge to judge here on Earth; and He comes in His manifestation relevant to the Third Pull: in all His fullness, performing great wonders and miracles; and He comes like this, in that form, in the end time, for the elect of God to also have the new body that He has promised for all of us in this end time, and also to call and gather the elect of the Hebrew people, which are 144,000 Hebrews.

Now, before the Door closes we find that all the elect of God are called and gathered by the ministry of Jesus Christ through His Angel Messenger in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, where Christ manifests the ministries of Moses and Elijah in His Angel Messenger.

Now, we are in a very beautiful stage hearing the Word of God; and still more sons and daughters of God are being called and gathered together in the Mystical Body of Christ, entering through Christ, the open Door; and being placed (where?) in the Age of the Cornerstone, the Age of the Most Holy Place of the spiritual Temple of Jesus Christ.

And now, notice, we are at a stage where we are being prepared to be transformed and raptured in this Last Day.

Therefore, let us live in accordance to the Word of God. And the things that our brother Branham, the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, taught us must be kept, fulfilled; and we must remain in all those things that he taught us so that we will not have problems with God, and when the Door is closed He finds us walking in the pure Word of the Lord Jesus Christ.

He gave us, through the forerunner messenger, His Message that foreruns the Second Coming of Christ; and then, in this Last Day, He gives us the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom; and thus we have the Message of the forerunner for this end time, and the Message of the forerunner: of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit in this end time, speaking to us with that Great Voice of Trumpet the things that must happen soon, in this end time.

So let us be prepared, with our lives fixed before God, with our sins cast into the Blood of Christ, and ready to be transformed and raptured in this Last Day. And working in the Work of Christ so that the Message may come to the other elect who have not yet arrived, so that they may arrive and be placed in the Mystical Body of the Lord Jesus Christ before the Door closes in the Age of the Cornerstone, and mercy, the Door of Mercy closes, and Christ is no longer as High Priest interceding in the Most Holy Place of the Temple which is in Heaven, upon God’s Mercy Seat there in Heaven.

That Mercy Seat, while the Blood of the Lamb is there: there is mercy; but when the Blood comes out from there, when Christ comes out, the Blood will no longer be there, and therefore it will become, that Throne of Mercy in Heaven will become a Throne of Judgment for the human race. And that is why thunder and lightning and voices come out of the Throne of God in Heaven.

In Revelation, let’s see where we find this… In Revelation, chapter 11, verse 19 says… Let’s see, from verse 15, so that you have the complete passage. Chapter 11 says, verse 15 to 19, it says in Revelation:

“And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

And the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,

Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken to thee thy great power, and hast reigned.

And the nations were angry, and thy wrath is come, and the time of the dead, that they should be judged, and that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, small and great; and shouldest destroy them which destroy the earth.

And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.”

There we can see how the Throne of God in Heaven… where Christ is as High Priest making intercession for His elect, from age to age, with His precious Blood there, in the Place of Intercession, until the last of God’s elect enters. And after the last one enters in, Christ already leaves the Throne of Intercession in Heaven. And that Throne of Intercession, because the Blood will no longer be there, will become a Throne of Judgment for the human race.

And just as during the seven stages or ages of the gentile Church and this end time in which we live, from the Throne of God in Heaven, where Christ is as Intercessor, comes the Message of the Throne of God in Heaven, a Message of Mercy for all of us in this time, as well as for those who lived in past ages. And through the messenger of each age comes that Message of Mercy, which is a direct Message from Christ.

Christ in Holy Spirit through the messenger of each age brings us that Message of Mercy, showing us His mercy and showing us the entry Door to His House, to His Church, which is Christ, so that we may obtain God’s mercy by believing in Jesus Christ as our Savior, washing our sins away in the Blood of Christ and receiving His Holy Spirit.

This is how it has been from age to age and this is how it is in our age. But it is in our age, the Age of the Cornerstone, that Christ will change from the Lamb of God into the Lion of the tribe of Judah, and from the High Priest into the Judge of all the Earth. And that change that He will be making has to do with His work there in Heaven, on the Throne of God. When He leaves the Throne of God, He will become the Judge of all the Earth and will judge this planet Earth with all its inhabitants.

Now, from the Throne of Heaven, see, thunder, lightning and voices come forth. And all of that which will be coming out of the Throne of God will be being made known in the Mystical Body of Christ, in the Age of the Cornerstone. And from there it is that the revelation of all the things that Christ will be doing in the midst of the human race will come to human beings.

Just as the revelation of Christ, of what He has been doing in Heaven, on the Throne of Intercession, as High Priest, interceding for all His children that are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life, all this has been made known in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ through the manifestation of Jesus Christ in every angel messenger. And each angel messenger has been joined by thousands of people, of ministers, who have carried forward that Message to make known to people the mercy of God from Heaven, for human beings here on Earth, in the Mystical Body of the Lord Jesus Christ. But from one moment to another, our brother Branham says that Christ will leave the Throne of Intercession in Heaven and there will be no Blood there.

While there is Blood on the Throne of God in Heaven, the Blood of Christ, the Blood of the Lamb, God can’t destroy this planet Earth. No matter what problems arise on this planet Earth and wars, planet Earth can’t be destroyed. But when Jesus Christ comes out from the Throne of Intercession there in Heaven, and the Sacrifice is removed from the Throne of Intercession in Heaven: it becomes a Throne of Judgment; and then from the Throne of God no longer comes out mercy for the human race, but divine judgment. And then the divine judgment is spoken in the Throne of God in Heaven, and is communicated to His Church here on Earth, in the Age of the Cornerstone, the Age of the Throne of the Lord Jesus Christ, for the Last Day, in His Mystical Body of believers.

And that Age is the one that will be representing here on Earth the Throne of God in Heaven. In other words, the Most Holy Place of the Temple of God in Heaven is represented in the Most Holy Place of the spiritual Temple of Jesus Christ, which is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, in the Age of the Cornerstone; and there will be the ministry of Christ with His Angels, with the ministries of Moses and Elijah manifested, making known the things that will be spoken by God from His Throne there in Heaven.

That is why the Scripture tells us that the Day or Hour of His Judgment has come. It says that the Hour of His Judgment has come, and that is why these things will happen here on planet Earth.

You see, in Revelation, chapter 6, verse 12 and on, it shows us a clear picture of what will be happening when Christ leaves the Throne of Intercession. We saw that there will be an earthquake… Because it says that they come out from the Throne which is in Heaven, it says [Revelation 11:19]:

“And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.”

And now let’s see here in Revelation, chapter 6, verse 12 to 17, how things will be here on Earth by that time. It says:

“And I beheld when he had opened the sixth seal, and, lo, there was a great earthquake (here we have the earthquake again)<em>; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood;

And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casteth her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind.

And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together; and every mountain and island were moved out of their places.

And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;

And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand?”

The great day of his wrath, it says, has come; and who will be able to stand? When the great tribulation begins, remember, this will be being fulfilled, and there will be no way to escape, because the Door will be closed.

You see, the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ also told us on page 369 of the book of The Seals in Spanish⁶:

“³⁶⁰ Notice the last verse of the Sixth Seal, opened. Those who had laughed at the preaching of the Word, of the vindicated Word of the living God; when them prophets had stood there and performed miracles, closed the sun, and everything else, and all down through the age. See, ‘They cried for the rocks and the mountains to hide them,’ see, to hide them from the Word that they had laughed at, ’cause they seen Him come. ‘Hide us from the wrath of the Lamb.’ He is the Word. See? They had laughed at the Word. And here the Word was, incarnate. And they had made fun of It; laughed at them, made fun of them. And the incarnate Word had dropped forth!”

You see? They will make fun of the Two Olive Trees, they will make fun of these ministries that will be manifested in this end time. But after that, you see, comes the divine judgment.

“^[360] …And they had made fun of It; laughed at them, made fun of them. And the incarnate Word had dropped forth!

³⁶¹ Why didn’t they repent? They couldn’t. It was too far, then. So, they knowed that, the punishment. They hear It. They had sat in meetings like this and knowed about It. And they knowed that the things of those prophets, had predicted, was looking them right in the face, the thing that they had rejected. They had spurned mercy for the last time.”

Because the mercy of God will be for the last time manifested in this end time, in the Age of the Cornerstone; and it is there, under the ministry of the Angels, the Two Olive Trees, which are Moses and Elijah, and the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit: these three ministries manifested in the Last Day in the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ will be making known all these divine judgments that are to come upon the human race; but some people will think that it will not be that way; but according to the Scripture the divine judgment of the great tribulation will come. And when the people find themselves in the great tribulation, they will see that it was true what had been foretold, prophesied, by the ministries of Moses and Elijah.

And now see how mercy will be manifested for the last time under the ministry of Moses and Elijah; that is why the Door is still open, but from one moment to the next it will be closed. And when it is closed, whoever is dirty, let him become even dirtier, or he will become even dirtier, because there will be no more Blood to wash away his sins, because the Blood of Christ will no longer be there in the Place of Intercession in Heaven; therefore, Christ will no longer be making intercession, because He will have already made intercession for all His elect, and the number of His elect will be complete, and they will be sealed, and will be transformed, and will go to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.

Now, we will have those 30 to 40 days, when we are already transformed, where there will be a great manifestation of divine power, and where worldwide they will hear all these things that will be happening; and by that time there will be no opportunity for any person.

Now, we can see where we are in this Last Day; we can see that we are living very close to that stage where there will no longer be opportunity for any person. It says, page 39 of this message “Souls that are in prison now,” preached by the Reverend William Branham, it says:

“And notice when the Third Pull of His ministry come. The First was healing the sick.

The Second was rebuking the organizations, and prophesying; what they had done, what they were, and what was coming. What is, what is, will come; and what was, what is, and what will come. That’s what He done. Is that right?

But His Third Pull was when He preached to the lost that couldn’t be saved no more. They were down there where them big, painted eyes was, ‘Ooh, ooh!’ Preached to the souls in hell, that did not accept mercy, but were Eternally separated from the Presence of God. But yet they had to recognize it, what He was, because God made Him there.”

That is, when Christ went to hell, which is the fifth dimension, he preached to the imprisoned souls there.

We find that our brother Branham, as a child, he visited the fifth dimension, hell, because of the accident he had, where a little friend of his, his shotgun went off and injured his legs, and was bleeding out. He was taken to the hospital, where he was anesthetized with the anesthesia commonly used at that time, which was ether. And when he was anesthetized, he came out of the body (as when anyone who comes out of the body dies) and went to hell, and he saw there the women with their painted faces, their painted eyes, and so on; because that is the fashion there, in the fifth dimension, in hell.

See how he saw them there in hell, and there in hell he cried out to God. He says that the presence of God was not felt there, it was a place where God was not found anywhere; but there were people there; people, well, in their bodies – their spirits, in other words, bodies from another dimension, which is the spirit of the human being; some have a body from another dimension… in other words, some have a body from the fifth dimension and others have a body from the sixth dimension.

Now, we can see, one receives the body of the sixth dimension when we believe in Christ as our Savior and wash our sins away in the Blood of Christ and receive the Spirit of Christ; and thus we obtain the body of the sixth dimension, so that when a person who has believed in Christ dies, he goes to Paradise, to the sixth dimension, and doesn’t have to go to hell; because without that body of the sixth dimension he has nothing to go to the sixth dimension with.

Now, you see how we are required to be careful, because after we finish our life here on Earth, comes the part that is eternal, where the person can no longer do anything. Everything that the person can do, they have to do here on Earth, being here on Earth in their earthly body.

Now, see how our brother Branham being a young man, being there in hell, in the fifth dimension, he saw all those people there; because the fifth dimension is the place where the lost go, those who have not received Christ as their Savior and have not washed their sins in the Blood of Christ, and have not received the Spirit of Christ; therefore, they can’t go to the sixth dimension, and therefore they have to go to that fifth dimension.

Now, you see, he cried out to God there, God took him out of that fifth dimension, which is hell, and he woke up or was waking up when the doctors believed he was already dead; for he had left the body, as all people do when they die; but he returned because God resurrected him, brought him back to life; and, you see, he became a minister of the Lord Jesus Christ.

And then, when he was already a minister of the Lord Jesus Christ, he was transported to the sixth dimension, to Heaven, he saw there the believers in Christ who had departed from this earthly life, he saw them there in Heaven in their theophanic bodies, with white robes, and the women with their long hair, and young, representing 18 to 21 years of age, and he also saw the men there in Paradise; in other words, he saw the saints of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ who have departed, he saw them there in Paradise.

See the way of the people from there of Paradise: women with their long hair, and they were not painted or anything like that, because that fashion has not reached and will not reach Paradise; that fashion is of the fifth dimension.

Sometimes things from the fifth dimension stick to us; that is why there are people who come inspired from the fifth dimension to produce a lot of things that are from the fifth dimension and that are materialized in this earthly dimension. But also the messengers of God, who are sent from the sixth dimension, come with the Word of God, to materialize on this Earth, in human beings, the things of the sixth dimension, the things of Heaven, the things of Paradise.

That is why we have to be very careful in our earthly life, not to be with the things that are from the fifth dimension, which have been brought by inspired people from the fifth dimension, but having the things that are from Heaven, which come from God, which come from the sixth dimension, of Paradise, through the Word of God, to materialize in each one of us before the Door is closed, so that we may find ourselves inside the House of God, living according to God’s Will, and prepared to be transformed and raptured on this Last Day.

When the Father of the Family arises and closes the Door, there will be no more opportunity to enter the Mystical Body of Christ, not even one more person; because the number of the Mystical Body of Christ, the number of the elect of God, will be already completed.

Christ is the Father of the Family manifested from age to age in every angel messenger, and He is the one who says He has the keys of David, and He says He has the keys too – He says He has the keys of David, and what does He also have? He has the keys of hell and of death. That is why He was able to come out of hell when He died, and He preached in hell to the people that were there, and then He could resurrect, He could come out of the grave, He could come out of death; because He had the keys of hell and of death, which He took away from the devil there in hell.

Christ had said: “I have power to lay down my life (that is, to lay it down as a sacrifice by dying) and I have power to take it again (that is, to resurrect again).⁷”

Now, we can see how Christ, who says He is the one who closes and no one opens, and the one who opens and no one closes, Christ in past ages we find that He didn’t close the Door of Grace through any of the messengers, He didn’t close the Door of entry to the Mystical Body of Christ; but for the Last Day, Christ Himself said that the Father of the Family, when He arises and closes the Door, those who will be outside will be knocking on the door wanting to enter, but they can no longer enter.

The same thing He said in the parable of the ten virgins when the Bridegroom came, and those who were ready went in with Him to the Marriage, and the Door was closed; and afterwards the foolish virgins came knocking at the Door, but the Door was already closed; and He said to them: “I do not know where you are from.” Christ says: “There shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” He says: “Watch, for you do not know the day and hour when the Son of Man is coming.⁸”

Jesus Christ, the Son of Man, is the One who will close the Door in the Last Day in His final manifestation, in His manifestation in His Angel Messenger. For the stage in which Christ leaves the Throne of Intercession in Heaven, for that time the manifestation of Christ through His Angel Messenger will come to be as Judge of all the Earth; in other words, Christ will no longer be as High Priest, but as Judge of all the Earth; and therefore the door will already be closed. And those who were left inside will have the blessing of the eternal body that He has promised for all of us; and those who were left outside will have the terrible situation of the great tribulation that will come upon the human race, but they will be able to be faithful to Christ during the time of the great tribulation and (since they will be persecuted) die, and thus not lose their souls, but resurrect after the Millennial Kingdom to enter into eternal life.

Now, notice, that from Christianity only those who were appointed as the elect of each of the gentile Church ages will be resurrected in eternal bodies. They will come with their angel messengers back to Earth in this end time, when Christ leaves the Throne of Intercession in Heaven; and we who live will be transformed, according to God’s promise.

And when we are already transformed, we will be restored to eternal life with all the divine power that Adam and Eve lost in the fall; in other words, we will all be in the image and likeness of Jesus Christ, and with the same power.

And if with only one here on Earth, two thousand years ago, all those great wonders and signs happened, how will it be for the end time when the dead in Christ will resurrect in eternal bodies and we who live will be transformed, and will be all in the image and likeness of the Lord Jesus Christ!

We will all be under the direction of Christ, who will be manifested in this end time, in the Age of the Cornerstone, as Judge of all the Earth; and His seven angel messengers of the seven ages of the gentile Church will be with Him, with the group of each of those ages, which were the group of each of those messengers of past ages.

In other words, each angel messenger will return with his group in eternal bodies, and we who live will be transformed with the messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone; and thus we will all be, each one, in our relevant group; and all those of the past ages with their seven angel messengers will be here on Earth in our age (because it is our age).

And being that they will be in our age, see what will be happening: If the resurrection had been in the third age, the saints of the first and second ages would have been resurrected and would have been under the direction of Jesus Christ through the third angel messenger and the group of that third angel messenger; but since they are going to be resurrected in this end time…

Let’s look at another example: if they had been resurrected at the time of Jesus Christ’s ministry through our brother Branham, the seventh age messenger of the gentile Church, all those of the previous ages would be under the direction of Jesus Christ through the seventh angel messenger of the seventh age of the gentile Church and the seventh age group.

But the resurrection of the dead in Christ was not carried out in the seventh gentile Church age, in the Laodicean Age; and we find that even the messenger of the seventh age had to depart, because the resurrection of the dead in Christ and the transformation of those who were alive was not for that time, and he had to depart; but he said that on the morning when the Last Trumpet, the Trumpet of God, was sounding, he would arise, he would resurrect; and with him the dead in Christ of his age will resurrect, as well as the messengers of each age with the group to which God sent him and to which he ministered in the age in which God sent them.

And now, you see how the seven stages or ages of the gentile Church have passed, and the resurrection of the dead in Christ didn’t occur in those seven ages nor the transformation of the living; because it is for the Age of the Cornerstone.

The resurrection of the dead in Christ and the transformation of us who live is for the group of the Age of the Cornerstone. We are waiting for them, we will receive them with our open arms and our open hearts. They have said that they will be with us, they have said that when they resurrect they will eat, just like Christ ate with His disciples when He resurrected.

Now look, with whom did Christ eat? With the group that was living at that time, with the believers of the Message of Christ of that time. And now, look, they will be with us and they will also eat with us. And when we see them, we will be changed, and then we will have the eternal body too.

Now see how this great promise was for us in the Age of the Cornerstone. It is for those who will be living in this Last Day and who will be seeing Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit coming to His Church in the Age of the Cornerstone manifested in human flesh in His Angel Messenger. For those who will see His Coming, the Coming of Christ in Holy Spirit in His Angel Messenger, will be that promise.

And then we will find Christ manifested in all His fullness in His Angel Messenger, no longer as Priest, but as Judge of all the Earth; and He will be performing the part that pertains to that Third Pull with the great wonders and miracles that are promised for this end time.

Now, we have seen THE MYSTERY OF THE FATHER OF THE FAMILY, THE DOORMAN, CLOSING THE DOOR. Christ in His final manifestation will be the One who will close the Door, just as in Revelation, chapter 10, it says that He raised His right hand to heaven and swore by the One who lives forever that time will be no more. And that is how Christ will close the Door of Grace, He will close the Door of the First Coming of Christ; so that the people who will be inside already, will have the blessing of the new body and can go to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.

The Father of the Family, the Doorman, you see, is the one who closes the Door; and that is Jesus Christ in the Last Day in His final manifestation, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom.

“THE FATHER OF THE FAMILY: THE DOORMAN.”

Now, we have seen who the Doorman is in this parable of Christ, of Luke, chapter… in chapter 13 of Luke, where Christ tells us: “Strive to enter in at the strait gate (that is the Door that shall be shut): for many, I say unto you, will seek to enter in, and shall not be able.”

And when the Door is closed, many will try to enter, but will no longer be able to.

“When once the master of the house is risen up, and hath shut to the door, and ye begin to stand without, and to knock at the door, saying, Lord, Lord, open unto us; and he shall answer and say unto you, I know you not whence ye are.”

For they are not of the elect of any of the seven ages, nor of the Age of the Cornerstone; therefore they will have to go through the great tribulation, and there will be the weeping and the gnashing of teeth.

But when that happens, where will that moment find you? Inside the House of God, eating the spiritual food that the Father of the Family, the faithful and wise Servant, will be giving us in this end time; through whom will be Jesus Christ, the Father of all the elect, will be manifested in this Last Day in the faithful and wise Servant, giving us the spiritual food and preparing us to be transformed and raptured in this end time, in the Age of the Cornerstone; and then He will close the Door and not one more will enter.

When will the Door be closed? When the last of the elect has entered and Christ has left the Throne of Intercession in Heaven.

So we will continue to carry the Message everywhere while the Door of Mercy, which is Christ, is open to human beings.

While Christ is on the Throne of the Father in Heaven, we will be taking the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom everywhere and we will also be making known to them how to enter the House of God, the Mystical Body of Christ: by believing in Jesus Christ as our Savior and washing our sins away in the Blood of Christ, and receiving the Spirit of Jesus Christ; and thus being born in the House of God, in the Mystical Body of the Lord Jesus Christ, and being prepared to be changed and raptured on this Last Day, and thus go to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Heaven.

It has been a great privilege for me to be with you testifying to you of the Father of the Family, the Doorman, who will close the Door.

“THE FATHER OF THE FAMILY.”

May God continue to bless you all, may God keep you, and may you continue having an evening filled with the blessings of Jesus Christ in the House of God. And even though you leave this place, you will remain in the House of God, because the House of God is the Mystical Body of the Lord Jesus Christ; and you will continue with God’s blessing to your home and wherever you go, and you will continue with the Word, eating that Word in your home; and wherever you are: eating that Word there in your soul, to be prepared to be transformed and raptured in this Last Day.

Let’s have our lives fixed with God, our sins confessed to Christ and cast into the Blood of Christ, our sins washed away in the Blood of Christ; and always praying to God, and receiving His Word, and thus feeding our soul with His Word, and working in His Work; and also removing everything that we discover that comes from the fifth dimension, so that we are all prepared.

There are many things that come from the fifth dimension; therefore, everything that you know that comes from the fifth dimension, put it aside, because it will not help you in any way; and keep on receiving the Word of God that comes from the sixth dimension, the Word of God that comes through Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit in this Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, as it was in each age of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

May God continue to bless you all, may God keep you, and may God help us all. Just as you need to take away many things that you know are not from God, so do I. So we all need to examine ourselves, and we all need God’s help, God’s mercy, Christ’s mercy and the strength of His Spirit, in order to overcome in this end time, and be ready for our transformation, which is very near.

Remember that our transformation, which Christ has promised for each of you and for me as well, is very near.

Where are those who will be transformed in this Last Day? Here we are! We are not in a past age, but we are in the age of the present, the Age of the Cornerstone; there we are being prepared to be transformed on this Last Day.

I will be seeing you again during the week. It is still not time for the trip. We have a trip coming up, but it is still not time for the mission trip we are going to have; therefore, I will be seeing you during the week.

On Wednesday you will have activity, on Wednesday you will have the video that you are always used to, of some activity that has been done in some country, or right here in Puerto Rico; and then on Friday and Sunday I will be with you bringing you what God gives me for each one of you, which is the same thing that God gives me for myself. What He gives me for myself, I bring to you and share with you in the activities.

Sometimes, for me to give you on a Friday, or Friday and Sunday morning and Sunday afternoon, for me to give you that Word, sometimes it takes me a few days to receive It, but then I can give It to you on Friday and Sunday morning and Sunday afternoon. And when we are traveling, when I’m traveling, that is every day then; and as God gives me the Word, the Message every day, I preach it, and it is recorded for all of you who are here present, and for all those who are in different nations, so that we may be fed and prepared to be transformed and raptured on this Last Day.

Pray for me much, for as you need prayer for yourself, so do I need it for myself. I will always be praying for you, and who will be praying for me? You are. And I will be praying for me and I will be praying for you.

So pray for yourself and pray for me too. I will be praying for me and I will be praying for you too. And in divine love we will continue to walk together until we are transformed. And after we are transformed we will continue to walk together for all eternity.

We are not going to separate from each other; and we are not going to separate from each other either at this time or when we are transformed, or during the Millennial Kingdom either. We will all be united in the place where we will all be together there in Jerusalem, in the part that pertains to the Age of the Cornerstone.

And who will be closest to the Throne of the Lord Jesus Christ? Where are those people? Well, here we are! And there we are going to leave it alone, because that is already for a subject like: “The key of David” or “The Son of Man and Son of David.” So we are going to leave it there alone.

God bless you, God keep you; and continue to spend a day and an evening and a night, and all the days of your life, continue to spend them filled with the blessings of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ.

With us again Felix Caro to continue and finish, and thus have the final songs, giving thanks to Jesus Christ our Savior.

May God bless you and keep you all.

“THE FATHER OF THE FAMILY.”
