The Mystery of Godliness

Good evening, beloved friends and brethren present here in Chile, where we are gathered to have spiritual fellowship around the Word of God, and thus, to see our subject for this occasion: “THE MYSTERY OF GODLINESS.”

For this reason, I want to read in First Timothy chapter 3, verse 14 and on, where it tells us:

“These things write I unto thee, hoping to come unto thee shortly:

But if I tarry long, that thou mayest know how thou oughtest to behave thyself in the house of God, which is the church of the living God, the pillar and ground of the truth.

And without controversy great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh, justified in the Spirit, seen of angels, preached unto the Gentiles, believed on in the world, received up into glory.”

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

Our subject is: “THE MYSTERY OF GODLINESS.” 

God is Love, and the mystery of Love is God manifested in human flesh in the Person of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ: it was God manifested in human flesh in the form of a human being.

That is why in Saint John chapter 1, it tells us [verse 1]:

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

The same was in the beginning with God.

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

And, speaking to us about the Word, it tells us in this same 1st chapter, on verse 14:

“And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.”

Notice how the Word was with God, and the Word was God, and the Word was the Creator of all things; and notice how then He was made flesh and dwelt among human beings, and He was known by the Name of Jesus. It was none other than the mystery of godliness, the mystery of God manifested in human flesh among the Hebrew people.

This mystery had been reflected, and the manifestation of this mystery in human flesh had been reflected in the Old Testament prophets.

During the Dispensation of Law, we find that Christ in His First Coming was reflected; the First Coming of Christ was reflected in the prophets of the Dispensation of Law: It was reflected in the Prophet Moses, and It was reflected in each of the prophets who came after the Prophet Moses.

For the Dispensation of Law, there were seven stages or seven ages of the Hebrew Church under the Law, where the First Coming of Christ was reflected: It was reflected in each of those prophets; and the last prophet in whom the First Coming of Christ was reflected was in John the Baptist, for John the Baptist was the last of the prophets of the Law.

That is why Jesus says: “The prophets prophesied until John,”¹ in other words, the prophets of the Dispensation of Law went as far as John the Baptist. It doesn’t mean that no more prophets would come after John the Baptist, for the Lord Jesus Christ Himself, being a greater prophet than John the Baptist, appeared after John the Baptist. And Christ Himself said that He would send prophets, apostles—apostles, prophets, evangelists, pastors, and teachers to His Church, for the perfecting of the saints.²

Now, notice how the prophets, dispensational prophets and of the ages, of the different dispensations, reflected the First Coming of Christ and also reflected the Second Coming of Christ.

Now, notice, how would the Messiah come? If we look at the reflection of the Coming of Christ there in the prophets, we can see that He was reflected in prophets, in men; therefore, the Coming of the Messiah would be a Man, a Prophet.

And we find that when the Prophet appeared in whom the First Coming of Christ, the First Coming of the Messiah, was being fulfilled, we find that He was a simple Man from Nazareth (that is, raised in Nazareth, although He had been born in Bethlehem of Judea).

In that simple young carpenter of Nazareth, the First Coming of the Messiah was being fulfilled, the Coming of Christ, the Coming of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the Coming of the Angel of the Lord, of the Angel of the Covenant in human flesh. In that veil of flesh named Jesus: the Angel of the Lord, the Angel of the Covenant, was manifested, fulfilling His Coming in human flesh.

The Prophet Malachi, speaking to us about the Coming of the Messiah, tells us in chapter 3 [verse 1]:

“Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me…”

That messenger was John the Baptist, who came before the Lord Jesus Christ, preparing the way for Him. And who sent him? The Lord, the Angel of the Lord, Jesus Christ Himself, who is the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, sent him, He sent him before Him. In other words, before the Messiah came in His earthly ministry manifested in human flesh, He sent John the Baptist; and afterwards, Jesus appeared in His ministry.

And then, who would come after the forerunner of the First Coming of Christ?

“…And the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple…”

Who would come? The Lord would come, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the Angel of the Lord.

“…Even the messenger of the covenant, whom ye delight in: behold, he shall come, saith the Lord of hosts.”

Who would come? The Lord would come, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the Angel of the Lord, the Messenger or Angel of the Covenant; He would be the One who would come in human flesh in the form of a Man, in the form of a Prophet, to carry out His Work of Redemption on Calvary’s Cross. And that was the mystery of godliness, the mystery of God, who is Love, manifested in human flesh. “Great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifest in the flesh.”

It was God, the Almighty, the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, creating Himself a body of flesh in Mary’s womb; there, He created a life cell, and it multiplied cell after cell until it formed the body of Jesus, which was born in Bethlehem of Judea; and in that veil of flesh, in that body, God dwelt in all His fullness.

In that veil of flesh, God was manifested in the form of a Man to carry out the Work of Redemption and thus give His life (the life of that physical body), to give it for each one of us. The Scripture says that He was made sin for us;³ not that He was a sinner, but that He was made sin by taking our sins.

He was not a sinner, because He didn’t come by the union of a man and a woman in intimate relations, but rather, by Divine Creation; that body came without sin. That is why He could say: “No man takes My life from Me, I lay it down of Myself to take it again.”⁴ He could also say: “Before Abraham was, I am. And Abraham desired to see My day; he saw it, and was glad.”⁵

And now, we can see that the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth was there among the Hebrew people, clothed in human flesh. It was the first time that God, the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, clothed Himself in human flesh in all His fullness to carry out His Work of Redemption and thus take away our sins.

He had manifested Himself in prophets in the Old Testament, but they had all come through the union of a man and a woman, except Adam; but Adam fell, and Adam became a sinner because he sinned.

And from that point on, we find that the human race fell into sin, and the wages of sin is death;⁶ and for this reason, the seed of Adam has come after the flesh, and it has come in death: because the wages of sin is death; it has come contaminated by sin, and therefore, sentenced to death.

And that is why when the human being is born here on Earth, when the person is born here on Earth, notice, he is born through the union of a man and a woman; and when he is born he obtains a spirit of the world; and then he obtains a body of the world, a body of flesh, and that body is mortal, corruptible, and temporary.

And Saint Paul the Apostle, in his Letter to the Corinthians (the First Letter), chapter 15, verse 50 and on, he tells us:

“…That flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.”

In other words, we can’t obtain the inheritance that Adam and Eve lost, we can’t obtain it being in this mortal body; we need an immortal body.

We cannot obtain the immortality of the body in this mortal body; we need an immortal body, which Christ will give us at the Last Day, in other words, in the seventh millennium, according to His promise, where the dead in Christ will be raised in incorruptible bodies, and we who are alive will be changed.

And then we will fully be in the image and likeness of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ, with Eternal Life not only in our soul and in our spirit, but in our body too; but it will be a new body created by God that Christ will give us, and it will be a body with Eternal Life, to live for all eternity with our beloved Lord Jesus Christ, as kings and priests.

And now, this mystery of the First Coming of Christ, notice, was promised to be manifested among the Hebrew people; for it was among the Hebrew people that the First Coming of Christ was reflected, through the prophets that God sent among the Hebrew people. And among the Hebrew people, what was reflected—among the Hebrew people—through the prophets, was fulfilled: the First Coming of Christ was reflected and the First Coming of Christ was fulfilled among the Hebrew people.

The Second Coming of Christ was also reflected in the prophets of the Old Testament, in order to fulfill His Coming, His Second Coming, at the Last Day.

But the Second Coming of Christ has also been reflected through the angel-messengers of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ among the Gentiles, Saint Paul was the first angel-messenger among them, and Irenaeus was the second angel-messenger, Martin was the third angel-messenger, Columba was the fourth angel-messenger, Luther was the fifth, Wesley was the sixth, and Rev. William Branham was the seventh angel-messenger.

The Second Coming of Christ has been reflected in them; and therefore, since It was reflected among His Gentile Church, the Second Coming of Christ must be fulfilled among the Gentile Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

And just as each of these angel-messengers were sent to the Church of Jesus Christ for each of the relevant ages, the Second Coming of Christ will be fulfilled among His Gentile Church as the Angel promised for the Last Day: the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, manifested at the Last Day through human flesh, as He has promised through His prophets.

The forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, in the message The Revelation Of The Seven Seals, page 318 [paragraph 391], tells us that the Holy Spirit is the true white-horse Rider of Revelation chapter 19; and that Rider is Jesus Christ in His Coming as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Claiming Work.

And on page 295 of the Book The Revelation Of The Seven Seals, the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, Rev. William Branham, also tells us:

“196 But when our Lord appears here on earth, He’ll be riding on a snow-white horse. And He’ll be completely, fully, the Emmanuel, the Word of God incarnate in a Man.”

What will the Coming of the Lord, the Coming of the white-horse Rider of Revelation 19, be? It will be the Word incarnate in a Man.

That is why Revelation chapter 19 says that His Name is… let’s see, let’s see what His Name is. In Revelation chapter 19, verse 11 and on, it says:

“And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.”

It is the Coming of the Word of God, it is the Coming of the white-horse Rider of Revelation 19, it is the Coming of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit manifested in human flesh at the Last Day.

That is the Coming of Christ, the Coming of the Angel of the Covenant, the Coming of the white-horse Rider of Revelation chapter 19, the white-horse Rider of Revelation 19 coming, who is Jesus Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, the Holy Spirit, manifested in human flesh among His Gentile Church; for which He must have a veil of flesh here on Earth, pertaining to the end time, so that through that veil of flesh He may manifest Himself among His Church as the Angel of the Covenant, the Messenger to His Church, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom.

But the veil of flesh will not be the Lord Jesus Christ, rather, the veil of flesh will be the Angel-Messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, with the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom among the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; but in that Messenger, Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit will be manifested at the Last Day as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Claiming Work.

And that will be the second major manifestation of the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, promised to be fulfilled among the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; just as the first major manifestation that was fulfilled happened two thousand years ago among the Hebrew people.

And now, for the Last Day, we have the promise of the manifestation of the mystery of godliness among the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; just as the manifestation of God’s godliness, which is Love, was fulfilled among the Hebrew people two thousand years ago, which was the First Coming of Christ as the Lamb of God, taking away the sin of the world there on Calvary’s Cross.

And now, for the Last Day, the Second Coming of Christ, the Coming of the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, will be fulfilled among the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit coming to His Church and among His Church, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit manifested in human flesh in His Angel-Messenger.

We find that John the Apostle wanted to worship at the feet of the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ on two occasions. In Revelation chapter 19, verses 9 to 10, we find the first occasion; and it says the following:

“And he saith unto me, Write, Blessed are they which are called unto the marriage supper of the Lamb. And he saith unto me, These are the true sayings of God.

And I fell at his feet to worship him. And he said unto me, See thou do it not: I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren that have the testimony of Jesus: worship God: for the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.”

This Angel did not allow John the Apostle to worship him.

And in Revelation chapter 22, verse 8 to… let’s read from verses 6 to 9, it says:

“And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done.”

Whom does He send to make known, to show these things which must shortly be done? Jesus Christ sends His Angel-Messenger.

It goes on to say:

“Behold, I come quickly: blessed is he that keepeth the sayings of the prophecy of this book.

And I John saw these things, and heard them. And when I had heard and seen, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which shewed me these things.”

Who showed him all these things from the Book of Revelation? The Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ. The Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ was the one who showed John the Apostle all this apocalyptic revelation, for that is why he was sent to John.

“Then saith he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them which keep the sayings of this book: worship God.”

Notice how John the Apostle wanted to worship the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ on two occasions, because in the Angel of Jesus Christ he saw the manifestation of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ. He saw the same Holy Spirit that was in Jesus and that had been in the prophets of the Old Testament in the portion relevant to each age; and then he saw that Holy Spirit manifested in all His fullness in the Person of Jesus; then he saw Him manifested in the seven angel-messengers in the portion relevant to each age.

And at the Last Day, notice, in this apocalyptic vision, John the Apostle saw Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit, the Holy Spirit manifested in the Angel-Messenger of Jesus Christ; and he tried to worship the Angel of Jesus Christ because he saw Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit manifested, in the fulfillment of the promises pertaining to the Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom.

He saw the mystery of godliness manifested again in the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ. “Great is the mystery of godliness: God was manifested in the flesh.”

He was manifested in the flesh two thousand years ago in the Person of Jesus of Nazareth; and then, in Revelation chapter 19, He promises us the manifestation of the Word in human flesh again, in the Coming of the Son of man, in the Coming of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit at the Last Day manifested in His Angel-Messenger, to make known to us all these things which must shortly be done, and thus, give us the faith to be changed and raptured at this Last Day.

We have reached the end time. We have reached the time where, among the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit would be manifested through His Angel-Messenger, making known to us all these things which must shortly be done.

And there is no other way to understand all these things which must shortly be done, unless it is through the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ. That is why it tells us:

“And he said unto me, These sayings are faithful and true: and the Lord God of the holy prophets sent his angel,” (whom has He sent? His Angel. What for?), “to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done.”

The things which must shortly be done, at this end time, cannot be understood except through the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ.

And all these things which must shortly be done, the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ, sent by Jesus Christ, showed them to John in this apocalyptic revelation, in a symbolic form; in other words, these apocalyptic symbols contain all the things which must happen. But these symbols must be understood; the mystery contained in these symbols must be opened in order to understand these things which must shortly be done, at this Last Day.

How many of you knew that the Coming of the white-horse Rider of Revelation 19 would be the Coming of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit manifested in human flesh? But notice, that mystery has already been revealed: it is the Coming of the Word, the Word incarnate in a Man at the Last Day; that is the Coming of the white-horse Rider of Revelation chapter 19. And there will only be one veil of flesh in which the Word, the Word in human flesh, can be manifested, and that is the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ; because it must be in a prophet.

And now, notice this mystery of godliness, which was manifested two thousand years ago as the Lamb of God among the Hebrew people, so that at the Last Day the Word of God may be manifested in human flesh again, at the Last Day, among His Gentile Church; to then go to the Hebrew people, once He finishes His Work among the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Now, we have seen what would be happening at this time, and we have seen how the Divine Promises have been taking place among His Gentile Church.

And now we are at the end time, we are in the stage of the Cornerstone Age; and just like in the different stages of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, Christ sent an angel-messenger in whom He was manifested in the portion relevant to each age… Here we have the diagram that Rev. William Branham used in the message “The Stature Of A Perfect Man,”⁷ and he also referred to this diagram in other messages.

And now, we have seen how from age to age, Christ sent a messenger, an angel-messenger; and through that messenger of each age, Christ manifested Himself in the portion relevant to each age: it was the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit in each of those messengers, in the portion relevant to each age. And through each of them, Christ was also reflecting what would be His manifestation in all His fullness at the Last Day in human flesh in His Angel-Messenger.

And now, we also find that for each age, there was a messenger, there was a Message, and there was a territory where each of those ages was fulfilled and where there were the elect, the firstborn of each age, who were called and gathered in each age.

And at the end of the seven stages or ages of the Gentile Church, which conclude with the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit in His seventh angel-messenger in North America (that messenger was Rev. William Branham), once these seven ages end and the Work of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit in the North American territory ends, Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit flies to the Age of the Cornerstone.

And which territory does the Age of the Cornerstone belong to? The territory for the Age of the Cornerstone is Latin America and the Caribbean, where Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit flies for His last manifestation in human flesh in His Angel-Messenger; and through which—through this manifestation, He calls and gathers His elect, to form the Age of the Cornerstone out of human beings, just as He formed each age out of human beings; and thus, to complete His mystical Body of believers, which is His Church.

It was a mystery, the last manifestation of Jesus Christ among the Gentiles in human flesh was a mystery. Each manifestation of Christ through each angel-messenger, in human flesh, notice, pertains to a territory, pertains to an age, and pertains to a stage of the journey of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

And now, the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit, notice, pertains to Latin America and the Caribbean through His Angel-Messenger, to call and gather His Latin American and Caribbean elect, and put them in the Age of the Cornerstone, in the mystical Body of Christ; and thus, to complete His Church, His mystical Body of believers with Latin American and Caribbean people.

Who would have imagined that the last group of God’s elect would be Latin American and Caribbean people? No one could have imagined that.

Just as the first ones who became part of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ during the Dispensation of Grace were Hebrews; it started with Hebrews and it ends with Gentiles in Latin America and the Caribbean, where the number of God’s elect of the mystical Body of the Lord Jesus Christ is completed; and where Jesus Christ sends His Angel-Messenger to testify these things which must shortly come to pass, at this end time, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, in Latin America and the Caribbean.

So, all the things that will be happening in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, and among the Latin American and Caribbean people, all these things are made known by Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit through His Angel-Messenger.

[Revelation 22:16] “I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches.”

Whom does Jesus Christ send? His Angel-Messenger. What for? To testify these things which must shortly come to pass, to testify these things to the churches; to testify these things to all those who believe in Jesus Christ, to all those who have read the Bible and have been waiting for the Second Coming of Christ.

Through the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit in His Angel-Messenger, all these mysteries pertaining to the Last Day, to the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, in Latin America and the Caribbean, are made known. There is no other way to know these mysteries and their fulfillment among the Latin American and Caribbean people.

No one could imagine the great blessing that God had kept in His mind, in His heart, for the Latin American and Caribbean people. But that mystery has already been opened, and we are seeing the great blessing that Christ had reserved for the Latin American and Caribbean people, to be manifested in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, in the mystical Body of the Lord Jesus Christ; which is why He says:

“I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches.”

Through the Message of Jesus Christ through His Angel-Messenger, these mysteries are opened to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ in Latin America and the Caribbean.

Because the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ has been passing from stage to stage, from age to age, and from territory to territory; and now She is in the Age of the Cornerstone, and in the Dispensation of the Kingdom, and in the Latin American and Caribbean territory, to hear the Voice of Christ speaking to us at this Last Day through His Angel-Messenger, in the main language of the Latin American and Caribbean people, which is Spanish; and thus, He will make known to us all these things which must shortly come to pass at this Last Day.

We have reached the end time, we have reached the most glorious time of all times. We have reached the time in which the manifestation of the Word in human flesh would be repeated: the manifestation, the Coming and manifestation of the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, manifested in human flesh at the Last Day, just as He was manifested in human flesh two thousand years ago in Jesus of Nazareth (a veil of flesh who was born through a virgin named Mary), who was a Man that had a body which was not contaminated by sin.

And at the Last Day, we have the promise that there will be a Church, called the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, which is the spiritual Mary that will bring forth the promised Son; because in the spiritual Mary, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, is where the new birth of God’s sons and daughters has been taking place.

And now, through the Holy Spirit, at the Last Day we find that the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ will appear among the spiritual Mary, meaning, among the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; and that is where She is born, She obtains Her new birth; and where She obtains Her ministry for this Last Day, anointed with the Spirit of Jesus Christ, anointed with the Angel of the Lord, the Angel of the Covenant, which is Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit manifested in His Angel-Messenger at the Last Day.

But His Angel-Messenger is not the Lord Jesus Christ, he is only the veil of flesh, the instrument of Jesus Christ, for the manifestation of Jesus Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords in His Claiming Work. He is only the instrument of Jesus Christ for the manifestation of God at the Last Day, of Jesus Christ at the Last Day, of the Holy Spirit at the Last Day, among His Gentile Church; to thus have the manifestation of God’s godliness, which is Love, among the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, in the Age of Love Divine, which is the Age of the Cornerstone.

In the past, in the First Coming of Christ, they were living in the Age of the Cornerstone, the Age of Love Divine, and that is why the Scripture says [John 3:16]:

“For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.”

All of that happened in the Age of Love Divine, the Age of the Cornerstone.

And we have reached the Age of the Cornerstone, the Age of Love Divine, again.

That Age of Love Divine came two thousand years ago, after the seven stage or age of the Hebrew Church under the Law and after the ministry of the messenger of the seven age of the Hebrew Church under the Law, who was John the Baptist; then came the ministry of Jesus Christ, the ministry of the Angel of the Covenant through human flesh in the Person of Jesus of Nazareth.

And at this end time, after the seventh age of the Gentile Church comes the Age of the Cornerstone, with the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit through His Angel-Messenger, making known to us all these things which must shortly come to pass, to thus carry out the Work pertaining to the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom at this Last Day; to thus have the manifestation of the Lion of the tribe of Judah, of the King of kings and Lord of lords in His Claiming Work.

That is the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit at the Last Day, in which we are living. And through His Angel-Messenger, He veils Himself in human flesh and reveals Himself among His people, among His Church at this end time, in Latin America and the Caribbean; and then He will reveal Himself to the Hebrew people once He has finished His Work among His Gentile Church.

When the dead in Christ rise and we who are alive are changed, then it will be the time of the Hebrew people, for Christ to reveal Himself to the Hebrew people. But before that, He reveals Himself to His Gentile Church, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, through human flesh in His Angel-Messenger, and makes known to us all these things which must shortly come to pass at this end time.

And despite that, the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ is not the Lord Jesus Christ. He is only His Angel-Messenger, His Prophet-Messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone and of the Dispensation of the Kingdom, where Jesus Christ would be manifested in Holy Spirit at this Last Day.

He is the Angel of Revelation chapter 7, who comes with the Seal of the living God. Which is the Seal of the living God? The Seal of the living God is the Holy Spirit.

That is why Saint Paul says in Ephesians chapter 4, verse 30:

“And grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed unto the day of redemption.”

The Seal of the living God, the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit, comes manifested in His Angel-Messenger at the Last Day, to first call and gather His elect among the Gentiles with the Great Voice of Trumpet, which is the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, through which He makes known to us all these things which must shortly come to pass; and then He will also reveal Himself, manifest Himself to the Hebrew people through His Angel-Messenger, through the Angel-Messenger who comes with the Seal of the living God.

In other words, he comes with the Holy Spirit manifested in human flesh; he comes with Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit manifested in him, in human flesh, to carry out the Work pertaining to the end time, to this Last Day, and to call and gather His elect among the Gentiles, whose names have been written in the Lamb’s Book of Life before the foundation of the world; and thus, to complete the number of His Church, the number of His elect, written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life.

And then to bring the dead in Christ in eternal bodies in the resurrection, and then change our mortal bodies; and thus, give us an immortal and incorruptible and eternal body, to live with Christ for all eternity in His glorious Kingdom as kings and priests; and to reign with Christ a thousand years and then for all eternity.

Now we can see that there is already a Program prepared by God before the foundation of the world.

God isn’t doing anything new; what God is doing is fulfilling His Program from age to age. And at this time, He can’t do anything other than fulfill His Program that has already been established before the foundation of the world, to be carried out at this end time.

And in that Program which He established for the Last Day, we can find Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit manifested in human flesh through His Angel-Messenger. Outside of that Program, you will never be able to find Jesus Christ manifested at the end time; it must be in the Program that He established for the Last Day among His Church.

It can’t be outside His Church, it must be in the midst of His Church, and it must be in the Age of the Cornerstone, which is the age for the manifestation of the mystery of godliness at the Last Day; just as it was two thousand years ago, among the Hebrew people, in the Age of the Cornerstone, where the manifestation of God’s godliness, which is Love, manifested in human flesh in the Person of Jesus of Nazareth, took place.

“THE MYSTERY OF GODLINESS.”

That is the mystery of the manifestation of God, of the Angel of the Lord, of the Angel of the Covenant in human flesh in the Person of Jesus of Nazareth two thousand years ago as the Lamb of God, taking away the sin of the world.

And at the Last Day, the manifestation of the Angel of the Lord, of the Angel of the Covenant, of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit in His Angel-Messenger as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Claiming Work, to call and gather His elect at this Last Day, and raise the dead in Christ, and change us who are alive at this Last Day.

And that is why He gives us the faith to be changed and raptured; the faith, the revelation to be changed and raptured, which is the faith, the revelation of His Coming, of the Coming of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit in human flesh in His Angel-Messenger. That is the faith, the revelation that the Church of Jesus Christ would receive at the Last Day, in order to be changed: for us who are alive to be changed and for the dead in Christ to be raised.

We are living in the greatest and most glorious time of all times, we are living at the time in which Jesus Christ would send His Angel-Messenger to testify these things which must happen at this end time.

And even despite the greatness of the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit through His Angel-Messenger, His Angel-Messenger is not Jesus Christ; he is only His Prophet-Messenger for this Last Day, for the seventh millennium, and for the Dispensation of the Kingdom, and for the Age of the Cornerstone; with the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, through which he makes known to us all these promises, all these things which must shortly come to pass at this end time.

It has been a great privilege to be with you tonight, testifying to you about: “THE MYSTERY OF GODLINESS,” the mystery of God manifested in human flesh.

May the blessings of Jesus Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, our Savior, be upon each one of you and also upon me. And may He really open our understanding in order to understand these things which must shortly come to pass at this end time; and may He open the Scriptures to us pertaining to this end time, and fill us with the knowledge of His entire Program pertaining to this Last Day. And soon may we all be changed and raptured, and may we go to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb; and then reign with Christ on Earth for a thousand years and then for all eternity, as kings and priests, with Jesus Christ: the King of kings and Lord of lords. In the Eternal Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen and amen.

Thank you very much for your kind attention, beloved friends and brethren present, radio listeners, and television viewers, and have a good evening, everyone.

I will leave the minister in charge of this service before you again, to continue and conclude this service as planned.

May God continue to bless you all, and have a good evening, everyone.

“THE MYSTERY OF GODLINESS.”
