Jesus Christ Restoring the Power to His Church Through the Prophet Elijah

Good afternoon, fellow ministers in the Kingdom of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ. It is a great blessing and privilege to be with you on this occasion, to share some moments of fellowship with you around the Word of God and His Program relevant to this end time.

I appreciate and I am very grateful for everything you are doing for the new auditorium in Puerto Rico. And I trust that God will pour out great blessings under and in that new auditorium, for my desire is that God has a place to fulfill what He has promised. And somewhere, in some nation, what Reverend William Branham saw must appear.

Just as he saw that building which he said was a tent or a cathedral (it was a building), and he saw everything that was being done there…,¹ notice, he also had the pattern there for him to work, and to make the altar calls, and also to pray for the sick, the same way as it would be carried out later on in that place. Therefore, he carried out —by divine direction— the type and figure of what will happen later on.

And we trust that this Tent or Cathedral will appear. Reverend William Branham tried to make it, to have it built, to get the money and everything, but it wasn’t the time.

So, someone has to have it built; and the corresponding ministers to work on that task have to be with him, along with their congregations, because everyone will benefit.

And all those who will understand and wholeheartedly believe that vision, will understand that it must appear on the scene, and that God will use human beings to work in favor of that purpose.

Just like in the time when the tabernacle had to appear in the midst of the Hebrew people when they were going through the wilderness, well, notice: God showed it to Moses, so that he would make it according to the pattern that was shown to him;² and Moses didn’t have to start looking for the materials, but make it known to the people, and give the people the opportunity to… and for them to make offerings,³ to carry out the construction of that tabernacle along with everything it would have inside, except for the Pillar of Fire, which would come, and God would do that part.⁴

In other words, God gave Moses and His people the opportunity to do everything, except one thing, but that was the most important thing: the Presence of God inside that tabernacle in the most holy place.

The same thing also happened with the temple that Solomon built. For the construction of that temple, notice, the people… King David and the people provided the materials, and the builders, the laborers, and contractors, and everything;⁵ but when it was finished it was dedicated to God, and God provided the most important thing: His Presence.⁶

Without the Presence of God, no matter what is done, how great it is; if God’s Presence is not there: it has no value before God. But when God’s Presence is there, there is an immense value there that cannot be bought by man, which God provides: His Presence in the place, which has been prepared for God.

A New Temple is being built, and it is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

From stage to stage we have seen how the Presence of the Lord has been in the midst of His Church: In the time of the apostles. Then It moved to the first age; an age that was represented in the church of Ephesus, because that was the territory in which God manifested Himself, and the head of the Church of that time was there; in other words, that was the most important place at that time.

And we find the revelation that was given to the Church by Saint Paul in Ephesus: a very great, very profound revelation.

And we can see that in each age: a city – a country and a city has stood out in the Divine Program; that is how the construction of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, in other words, of the spiritual Temple of Christ, moved forward.

They passed, or that stage then passed, it passed to a new stage: to Europe, where about five Church ages were fulfilled… one in Asia Minor, five in Europe, and one in North America (the seventh); that is, of the Church among the Gentiles.

But despite that, being that the Church is the spiritual Temple of Christ, notice, the time of the apostles back then and the time of the seven ages, all of that pertains to the Holy Place of the spiritual Temple of Christ.

That construction has come from East to West, just as the sun comes from East to West; that is how Christ, and therefore, the Presence of Christ, has come in the midst of His Church. And now we are in the West, that is, in the Western Hemisphere.

There is a great blessing among the Latin American and Caribbean people; for just as the Spirit of God has been moving from Israel to the Gentiles: going to Asia Minor and then to Europe, and from there He jumped over to North America…

In… notice, in Europe He had five stages or ages; but now He goes on to the Continent of the Americas and has a stage in North America.

And where will He have the other stage? Because it has to be in the West; because the Most Holy Place, which is the stage that pertains to the Church at the end time, must be fulfilled in the West, and therefore: Latin America and the Caribbean, for the construction of the Most Holy Place. And then comes the dedication to God, of that spiritual Temple, where the fullness of God will be manifested; and the resurrection of the dead in Christ will come and the transformation of us who are alive.

That is why… Notice, it all began in the East; and that is why the blessing to the Gentiles was brought from the East, by Peter and Paul: Peter in the house of Cornelius,⁷ and Paul taking it to the Gentile people, to Asia Minor.⁸

And now, the Gospel will return to the Jews; and that is why we will go back to a stage or age in which, let’s say that the majority will have Jewish blood (if not all of them, well, the majority). It will be a Jewish Age; and we could say “Hebrew;” because saying “Jewish” in a sense refers to the tribe of Judah, and along with it: the tribe of Benjamin.

Therefore, it will be a Hebrew Age; although Reverend William Branham says that it will be a Jewish Age or Age of the Jews; notice, and he mentions that just as Peter and Paul took the Gospel to the Gentiles, the Gentiles will take It right back to the Jews; and then he mentions that it will be Moses and Elijah.⁹

So, where will Moses and Elijah come from? From among the Gentiles, from the midst of the Church of Jesus Christ, from the most important stage, which is the stage of the Most Holy Place.

That is where the Two Olive Trees, the Two Anointed Ones, the Two Candlesticks, will appear; where (Revelation 11, verse 3 and on) the Two Anointed Ones who stand before the Presence of God, will appear, also called los Dos hijos de Aceite¹⁰, the Two Olive Trees; which Zechariah, chapter 4, verse 1 to 14 also speaks to us about. And all of that, notice, has to do with the restoration of all the things.

If you want to obtain more information… Remember that I have always recommended to you (since long ago) to learn to… that you learn how to use a computer, that you learn to have… uh, to work with computers, because you will need it; and I think you already need it.

You heard Missionary Miguel Bermúdez Marín speaking, and also in the recorded conference that you heard. Something is moving, because everything has to overlap.

Even Reverend William Branham says: “When the Angel begins to seal those 144,000 (he says) then the door will be closed for the Gentiles;”¹¹ and then they will all be Jews, all Hebrews. And he says that the Hebrews, the Jews, will take the Gospel (to whom?) to the Jews, and the rapture will happen. In other words, he places everything in an overlap there.

Likewise, when he speaks to us about the Third Pull, he says that it will happen when the squeeze comes down; and then what we saw partially manifested in him, will be manifested in all its fullness; and then he begins to list the things that will be happening.¹²

And he says that Third Pull will be for the Bride (the Bride-Church), It will also be for the foolish virgins, and It will also be for the world. That is on page 118 and 119 of the book of Quotations; and there is also another quotation, which is in the book or message “Souls That Are In Prison Now.”

“Souls That Are In Prison Now,” that… what he says there, let’s see if I can find it for you. If you find the page with that title: “Souls That Are In Prison Now,” uh… If someone has found it… Page 114 (let’s…), paragraph 1002;¹³ it says (let’s read around… about halfway down) [Quotations]:

1002 – “[205] But remember, at that time, it’s all over (or it’s all finished). It’s done. It’s just a haunting.

206 There will be a ministry that will show great wonders (Which ministry is that? The ministry of the Two Olive Trees), Joel said so, but there’ll be no time for redemption.”

In other words, the Door of the Dispensation of Grace closes, and there will no longer be an opportunity to go in, to form part of the Church of the Lord. Meaning, from that point on, when the Door closes, the rest who come will go through the tribulation then.

1002 – “[206] It’s all over. The Lamb has done took His Book, and His redeemed is over (in other words, every elect of God, every person written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life, will have already come in; the Church will have been completed). 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. What if that could be the Third Pull? to the Eternal lost.”

There is another message where Reverend William Branham says: “Lord, show Your power to this world, shake this world once more.”¹⁴ That will become a reality.

He also says: “It’s not hard to ask for, because it’s a promise.”¹⁵ In other words, he is asking for something that has been promised.

Therefore, the Church of past ages didn’t have the promise for that blessing to be fulfilled in any of the past ages; but God showed the type and figure – in type and figure, what He will do at this end time: it is seen in the apostolic time or time of the apostles, in the time of Saint Peter; and also in the time of Saint Paul; and also, in a very great way, in the time of Reverend William Branham.

So, what God is preparing to carry out is something very great. That is what will completely wake up the Jews or the Hebrews, and they will say: “This is what we are waiting for.” And that will be parallel to what happened to Jacob when he met the Angel (in chapter 32 of Genesis).

So, we must be prepared; we must have everything ready so that when that is fulfilled, people don’t have to be running from one place to another, and seeking visas; rather, each congregation should also have their own broadcasting equipment – or receivers, so that they receive the proper signal by satellite or by internet. The satellite signal is clearer; as for the internet, you already know that the signal drops, and then you have a problem.

We always want to have the best for our congregations. Remember that the people in your congregation are princes and princesses.

And when the Chief of the sheep fulfills His entire Program, then each one will be rewarded according to his work. Therefore, we don’t mistreat the sheep of the Lord. We will have to give an account to the Chief Shepherd for all the work that we have done in the Fold that He has placed in our hands.

Now, what… and what he has to… uh, the important thing for the Church is for that building, that auditorium, that Cathedral, that Tent, to appear somewhere. And it has to appear among the people of what age? Of the first? Second? Third? Fourth? Fifth? Sixth? Seventh?

The messenger of the seventh age tried to have for God, for Christ (for Him to Manifest Himself), to have that place for Him (and…), so that He would fulfill everything he saw in that Tent; but he was not allowed. Even, on one occasion, when he sees a large tent and is placed there, he says… he thinks of his tent, his tabernacle; but he was told: “This is not it; this is not your tabernacle.”¹⁶

So, even when he went and saw the vision, it wasn’t his auditorium, cathedral, or tent; because he went, let’s say, he went for a visit, and he was in the air, and he was seeing everything that was happening there.

Therefore, that Tent Cathedral had to belong to someone; who, in order to reach that… let’s say, that level of activities, he had to start small, he had to start simple; and he continued to grow until he reached the climax of the Program that God had with that person in the midst of His Church.

So, it can’t be in the first, second, third, fourth, fifth, or sixth, or seventh age, because that entire time already passed. It has to be in the Age of the Cornerstone, and the territory where the Age of the Cornerstone is being manifested; meaning, in the territory that corresponds to that age. And from there, from that territory it spreads to other territories, as it happened in past ages; but each stage or age of the Church has a main territory.

The Age of the Cornerstone has – corresponds to the West or the Western Hemisphere; and as for the northern part of the West, the Church already had Its seventh stage or age. And now only Latin America and the Caribbean are left; therefore, the greatest blessing is for the Latin American and Caribbean people.

May God help us appreciate that great blessing that is in God’s Program for all of us.

Working with a people is difficult. You see it throughout history: in the time of Moses back then, you see it in the time of Joshua, you see it in the time of the judges, you can also see it in the time of the prophets; and then in the New… – then in the days of Jesus, of John and Jesus, you can also see it: they killed the forerunner and the one forerun. Then, in the time of the apostles, whom they also persecuted, and some of them were killed.

In other words, it has been (as we say) an uphill Work; but that’s how it is, because it’s a matter of going up a mountain. That is how the Church is: in the shape of a pyramid, and it’s a matter of going up; therefore, it takes more work than going down. Once the Church comes down with Christ, it’s easier: She already comes transformed.

But going up, from age to age, notice, many have not wanted Her to go up; but the elect have gone up to their relevant age. Even once they have gone up, people have wanted to bring them down, but Christ has upheld them.

And now, we are in the most glorious stage: the stage of the Age of the Cornerstone.

At this time, a dispensational messenger must appear in the midst of the people of God; and therefore, he will be a messenger for Christianity and for Judaism, he will be a messenger for Gentiles and Jews or Hebrews, he will be a messenger for every human being; he will be a messenger for every people, nation, tongue, and kings; he will be a messenger for the whole Dispensation of the Kingdom.

And because he will be a messenger for the whole Dispensation of the Kingdom, well, he will be the only one who will obtain the fulfillment of great promises that are there, for the Dispensation of the Kingdom; in other words, the… he will inherit the greatest blessing or blessings. And those who will be with him, together with their congregations, will also inherit the greatest blessings that there are for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Notice, the apostles —and therefore, those messengers of God—, Christ said that they would go before kings, before princes, and so on; then Paul als-…, Peter as well, to testify; Paul also, and different messengers of ages as well, like Irenaeus; like Luther too, whom princes of Germany and territories… and of those territories protected him; and Reverend William Branham was also told that he would go before kings and pray for kings.

And therefore, at the Last Day all of that will come together. And whoever the ministry of the Last Day will be upon, which will be a dispensational ministry, he will go before kings, and the manifestation of God will have no limitations in terms of what God will do; and not only in terms of healings or miracles, but in terms of Divine revelation and in terms of many other things that kings, princes, rulers, and so on, have need of.

But let’s leave that alone; in the trajectory of the Divine Program we will see all of that. And we will not be surprised, rather we will rejoice and thank God for what He will be doing, because all of that is in the Divine Program.

The Third Pull will be for the Bride-Church, for the foolish virgins, and for the world. And Israel will see all of that and say: “This is what we are waiting for.” Therefore, they will say: “I want this to be for me too; not only for Christianity or for the world, but we want it for us as well;” and the Two Olive Trees will be there to take, to pass the Message to Israel.

Therefore, no one should try to do what Reverend William Branham tried to do, to go to Israel and take the Message;¹⁷ because he was not the person, and through the Scripture we know that it will be Moses and Elijah, the Two Olive Trees.

Therefore, don’t try to take a place that doesn’t belong to you; but when we see and recognize that ministry manifested in a person, then yes, we should stand hand in hand with him: supporting him with our prayers and also financially, and watching his back, so that the Divine Program with the Bride-Church of Christ and with the foolish virgins becomes a reality.

In other words, we will see the foolish virgins approach that ministry, and that ministry approach them; in other words, God will open the door for him among the foolish virgins, and also in the world (therefore, at a government level and at an academic level, and all those levels, and at a religious level as well: in the world), and the doors will also be opened to him regarding Israel.

So, that ministry is promised to be in the midst of the Church. And there, with that ministry, the Church will be restored, because it will be Christ through His Spirit placing those ministries in the midst of His Church; and therefore, we will see those ministries operating in a man, who will have the mission to be in the midst of the Church and then in the midst of the Hebrew people.

He will have the mission of working so that all the promises that God has made for His Church, for the foolish virgins, for the world, and for the Hebrew people, are fulfilled. He will have the mission of letting himself be used by God so that God fulfills the Third Pull, which will be God by the Spirit of Christ operating through a man. We will recognize him, because we will be seeing the fulfillment of each one of those promises through the Spirit of God in him.

Some people may say: “What does he do to succeed in this or that?” It’s not his success, it’s the success of the Spirit of God, who promised to do those things, and He will be fulfilling them in the midst of His people.

Moses wasn’t the one who delivered the people, Moses wasn’t the one who brought the plagues; it was God. God was the One who did all of that by Divine creation, and the One who delivered the people; but He was veiled in a man: He would put His Word in that man, that man would speak, and those things would happen.

It was the creative Word of God promised for that time; that is why he spoke to them about the deliverance, because that was what God promised for that time.

He didn’t speak to them about building an ark to go across the Red Sea, rather he spoke to them about the deliverance that God had promised, for them to walk out.

He didn’t speak to them about an ark to go across the Jordan, he didn’t speak to Joshua about that. God had established the way.

And to cross Jordan (Jordan represents death), to go into the other side of Jordan: is to go into the promised land.

By following the ark, the people would go into the other side of Jordan; and therefore, they would reach the promised land.

Joshua typifies the Holy Spirit, because the Holy Spirit was in him.

The Jordan: death.

And the land of Israel (that…) which they entered: is the promised land of the new body, which the believers in Christ will receive; and it is the promised land of the Kingdom of God, which we will physically enter, just as we have also already spiritually entered and we are in the Kingdom of Christ, which is manifested in the form of His Church.

So afterwards, when we are raptured to go to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, we will return to Earth after three and a half years for the establishment of the Millennial Kingdom, which will also be the promised land; returning to the promised land, to be with Christ in His Kingdom for a thousand years, as kings and priests and judges; in other words, as the members of the Cabinet of His Kingdom; and therefore, as members of that Kingdom’s Royalty.

Everything that Christ is heir to, we are also heirs to.¹⁸ So the blessing for the Church is great.

The Church will be restored to everything She had, and even more than that; because each person will be restored to physical Eternal Life, with an eternal and glorified body, and all the power of God will be manifested in His Church.

Just as the Hebrew people were waiting for the restoration of Israel, which is the redemption of Israel… And what was that? The restoration of the Kingdom of David; that was what they were waiting for. And that is why in the triumphal entry of Christ, they cried: “Hosanna to the King who comes in the Name of the Lord! Hosanna to the Son of David! (See?) Blessed be the Kingdom of David that is coming!”¹⁹ That’s what they sang, because they were waiting for the restoration of that Kingdom.

But it wasn’t in His First Coming that the Kingdom of God —the Kingdom of David on Earth, among the Hebrew people— would be restored, rather this corresponds to the Second Coming of Christ.

That is why Reverend William Branham, on page 155 of the book of Quotations (since you don’t – some of you don’t have the same book, because the pages of the new… the different editions that they made after this one don’t align, so I’ll give you the paragraph too), paragraph 1383,²⁰ where he says:

1383 – “119 Oh, there will be a true former and latter rain in the last days upon that little group that come with Him on this little donkey, low and humble, no don-…or denomination, crying, ‘Hosanna to the King that comes in the Name of the Lord!’”

In other words, what happened back then will be repeating in some way. And the Jews will see that and say: “This is the One we are waiting for!”

“When the Jews see Christ coming for His Church, they will say: ‘This is the one we are waiting for.’” Reverend Miguel Bermúdez Marín read that from page 22 and 23 (I’ll give you the paragraph), paragraph 176;²¹ and also paragraph 183.²² And it’s also on page… (let’s see…), on page 2-A, paragraph 11;²³ and also on page 2-A, paragraph 14;²⁴ and page 2-A, paragraph 15²⁵ as well. There he says, in that last paragraph that I gave you:

15 – “[233] ‘The same Holy Ghost that fell on the Day of Pentecost is right here for you.’

234 Then the Gospel goes back to the Jews right there at that time. Then there’ll be a revival amongst those Jews right there that’ll carry thousands and tens of thousands and…a hundred and forty-four thousand, into the Kingdom of God…”

Let’s see:

15 – “[234] …and…a hundred and forty-four thousand, into the Kingdom of God, will be sealed by the sealing Angel. (…)

236 And right there, as soon as that sealing Angel begins to seal that hundred and forty-four thousand, the Gentile Church door is closed, and the Jews takes the Holy Ghost to the Jews. And they’ll have a revival that’ll sweep the entire world. Hallelujah! And the power of God will be manifested amongst the Jews.”

Now, we can see that something will happen with the Jews at this time; and they are waiting for something. But the Gentiles, the Church of the Lord, is also waiting for something great that She has been promised.

And what the Seventh Seal is to the Church, will be the Seventh Trumpet to the Jews. In other words, what the Seventh Trumpet is to the Jews: Moses and Elijah, the Two Anointed Ones, will be the Seventh Seal to the Church, in other words, the Coming of the Lord; because the Son of Man will come with His Angels.²⁶

Wherever we see the Seventh Seal, we will also be seeing the Seventh Trumpet; wherever we see the Seventh Trumpet (Moses and Elijah, the ministries of Moses and Elijah), we will also be seeing the Seventh Seal.

He says: “What the Seventh Trumpet is to the Jews, will be or is the Seventh Seal to the Church: the Coming of the Lord.”²⁷

On Mount Transfiguration, where Christ showed them the Coming of the Kingdom, the Son of Man coming in His Kingdom, what did they see? They saw Moses, Elijah, and Jesus. And after a certain point they stopped seeing Moses and Elijah, and then all they saw was Jesus Christ;²⁸ all they saw was the Coming of the Lord; but first they had to see Elijah and Moses.

That is what Reverend William Branham says there around page 59, and forty-something of the book of The Ages; and also in the unedited book, there you will also find more clarity on all of that. He says that is the order of the Coming of the Lord; and he says: “What did they see first? What will come first? Elijah. And then? Moses.”²⁹

He says: “That is the order of the Coming of the Lord;” in other words, there is an order. And if there is an order, then everything has to happen according to that order.

In other words, the fulfillment must align with what is promised. One cannot say that if something happens outside of what is promised then that is what God has in store; no. What God has in store is what He has promised; and that is what He will do, what He will fulfill, and what He will support; and that will be the Work of God for that time.

Therefore, there is a Divine promise for our time, and there is a territory established by God; and there are ministries established by God, to be operated by the Spirit of God.

Therefore, the promise of the restoration of God’s power to His Church is a hundred percent true. The promise is, according to the words of Jesus, that all things will be restored.

Saint Matthew chapter 17, verse 11, after Jesus came down Mount Transfiguration and His disciples asked him: “Why do the scribes say that Elijah must come first?” Christ says to them:

“And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.”

That is also according to Malachi, chapter 4, where it says… starting from verse 4 and on, it says:

“Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I commanded unto him in Horeb for all Israel, with the statutes and judgments.

Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the Lord:

And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.”

In other words, before God smites the Earth with the judgments of the great tribulation, before that, Elijah must come on the scene.

And now, the first Elijah already appeared, which was Elijah the Tishbite; the second Elijah already appeared, which was Elisha (in other words, people who had that ministerial spirit that was in Elijah, which was then in Elisha, in them); and then it appeared for the third time operated in John the Baptist (it was the Holy Spirit operating that ministry of Elijah); and then it appeared in North America in Reverend William Branham, that ministry of Elijah being operated by the Holy Spirit.

And the promise is that it will appear again for the restoration of all things, it will appear for the fifth time; and therefore, it will appear for the restoration of the Church, the restoration of all things, and for the restoration of Israel: to be restored to the Kingdom of God, in other words, to the Kingdom of David, which will be restored; and Israel will then have peace, and peace will go forth from Israel to all the nations.

There lies the secret of peace for all nations, of everlasting peace. In the meantime, well, we seek temporary peace as well, to be able to work better in favor of everlasting peace; but the goal is everlasting peace.

“JESUS CHRIST RESTORING THE POWER TO HIS CHURCH THROUGH THE PROPHET ELIJAH.”

“And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.” (Saint Matthew chapter 17, verse 11.)

And also in the book of Acts… in the book of Acts it has also been said, in chapter 3… (it’s not here); in chapter 3 of the book of Acts, it says… verse 18 and on… and also in chapter 1. Chapter 1, verse 6 and on: “When…” of the book of Acts:

“When they therefore were come together, they asked of him, saying, Lord, wilt thou at this time restore again the kingdom to Israel?”

Meaning that the restoration that Israel, all the Jews or Hebrews, were waiting for, and are still waiting for, is the restoration of the Kingdom, which will be the restoration of the Kingdom of David; because that is the only Kingdom, with the only Throne, which has —by Divine decree— the promise to rule over the Hebrew people and over all nations.

Since it was not for those days, He tells them – He told them:

“And he said unto them, It is not for you to know the times or the seasons, which the Father hath put in his own power.”

In other words, that wasn’t for them to know, because that wasn’t for those days; they needed to know what pertained to their time. And in order for them to know all the things pertaining to their time, He was going to send the Holy Spirit to them, who would give them power to work in the Work of God, and thus have the manifestation of God through His Spirit in the midst of His Church; through which a restoration would start in the spiritual realm.

And then, for the Second Coming of Christ, the physical realm comes in, which will be the part of the physical redemption, the restoration of all things: the restoration of the Church to the Kingdom of God, not only spiritually but physically as well, with an eternal and glorified and young body; and also the restoration of Israel to the Kingdom of God, which is the Kingdom of David; and also the restoration of Eden, which will be the Millennial Kingdom; the restoration of Israel to and in the promised land with the Kingdom of David restored.

Therefore, that ministry is connected to the restoration of the Church and the restoration of Israel. Israel also typifies the Church.

Therefore, under the ministry of Elijah, the restoration of all things will be carried out; but Moses will also be there; the ministry of the Holy Spirit will be there: of the same Spirit that was in Christ, and the same Spirit of Christ operating all those ministries.

And the Church will have what they have been promised, and Israel will have what they have been promised: Israel will have the Seventh Trumpet, and the Church will have the Seventh Seal.

That mystery is promised to be opened to the Church; and then everyone will have the faith, the revelation, to be transformed.

Just like in order to be spiritually transformed we obtained the revelation of the First Coming of Christ and His Work of Redemption on Calvary’s Cross, likewise, for the physical transformation we will all have the Divine revelation of the Second Coming of Christ and His Claiming Work.

And let’s leave that there, because with that blessing we will obtain the restoration of all things: the restoration of Eternal Life to us, the restoration of God’s power to His Church; and then, for Israel: the restoration of Israel to and in the Kingdom of David.

So, onward working in the Kingdom of God, more encouraged every day! Knowing that every day our redemption is drawing near: the redemption of the body, our transformation; every day it gets closer: 24 hours; 24 hours closer to the new body every day.

In the promised manifestation, Reverend William Branham says on page 136 of the book of Quotations, that the great miracles will be for Moses and Elijah; and they ask… – or he says: “What we need to wait for is the Coming of the Lord.”³⁰

Therefore, that mystery will be in the midst of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ and it will be opened to the Church of Jesus Christ; but he says that when it begins it will be a total secret.³¹

And if it says that the great miracles will be for Moses and Elijah, then the Coming of the Lord in the midst of the Church will be a secret; but She has the promise of a Third Pull.

So, many will see Elijah, others will see Moses. But the elect who will be transformed: will see Christ manifested, fulfilling His promise to His Church; they will see the manifestation of Christ in the midst of His Church. And let’s leave that there.

Our subject: “JESUS CHRIST RESTORING THE POWER TO HIS CHURCH THROUGH THE PROPHET ELIJAH.”

May God continue to bless you all. And onward.

And pray a lot for me, for all these activities that I still need to carry out this year; pray a lot for tomorrow’s Sunday activity; also pray a lot for this project in Puerto Rico, which you have joined, together with your congregations.

Well, I don’t see Miguel around here. Let’s have Miguel come here. It was a chat, a conversation…

I owe you something, right? I believe I owe you 3:18, right? 3:18 and on, Miguel, of the book of Acts. (This counts as the dessert already, Miguel.) Chapter 3, verse 18 and on… this is the apostle Peter in his second message; he had a great revelation; it says:

“But those things, which God before had shewed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he hath so fulfilled.

Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord.

And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you:

Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.”

So, in all the past ages they were waiting for the Coming of the Lord, but the time mentioned here is the time of and for the restitution or restoration of all things, around the time in which the Church and all of God’s power in His Church will be restored: where they will be restored to physical Eternal Life, and where… this is for – as individuals; and the Church as a Mystical Body: restored to how She was originally. And the Hebrew people, Israel, will be restored to and in the Kingdom of David.

See? The restoration of the Kingdom is (the restoration of the Kingdom) part of the restoration of all things. And Christ said: “Elijah will come and restore all things.”

In the Old Testament and in the New Testament, none of the previous Elijahs restored all things; only the fifth Elijah will be the one who will have that blessing. But we also see that each one of those Elijahs restored; a Work of restoration came with them.

The prophet Elijah restored the people to worship the true God;³² therefore, he restored them to God.

And the second Elijah kept the people with God; and he restored the son of a woman who was so kind that she made a house or little house or cabin for the prophet Elisha, so that whenever he passed by that city (which he passed by with his servant every once in a while) he would have a place to stay; he restored to her: her son who had died.³³ See? It is a ministry of restoration.

The prophet Elijah also restored to life a young man (right?) who had died,³⁴ and… we will search for that later on.

[Brother Miguel: That’s the son of the widow, who was resurrected by the prophet Elijah… Elisha.]

And Elisha restored the child; he had to do a few things; seven times, right? Anyone might see him doing that and say: “What is he doing?” He knew what he was doing. And the thing is that if anyone else did that, it wouldn’t work for them; he did it, and it worked. And all of that is a reflection of what God will be doing at this end time.

Remember that… Let’s see, was it seven times, Miguel? Can you search there? Because if it was seven times: there are seven ages, and there are also Seventh Thunders: the Seven Thunders for the Age of the Cornerstone, going through seven ages consecutively as one Age, but that contains the entirety of the seven ages; meaning, a perfect Work, because seven is completion.

There is the son of the Shunammite woman and there is the other one, the son of the widow; but he was not dead, “he was almost dead” (him and his mother), because there was no food; and she went out to look for some… two sticks to put them on the fire (the way you place them on the fire: you put them like this, in the form of a cross), and to heat up some flour that she had with a little bit of oil, to make the dough, and make some (over here we would say) tortillas, right? What would we call…? And… she says: “To eat it and then lay down to sleep… – then die,” because there was no more food after that.³⁵

Notice, the last thing she had: God multiplied it: by speaking, by putting that Word in the mouth of the prophet Elijah. So, he restored the meal in the barrel, and the oil in the cruise.

[Brother Miguel: Elisha was the one with the widow, who prayed seven times, Elisha.]

Yes, seven times.

[Brother Miguel: Seven times. “Then he returned (it says), and walked in the house to and fro… (…) and went up… (…) (again), and the child sneezed seven times, and the child opened his eyes.” {2 Kings 4:35}. The child sneezed seven times.]

So, we can see there, in all those cases, the type and figure of what God will be doing at this end time according to His promises. There always has to be a type and figure.

Well, let’s leave Missionary Rev. Miguel Bermudez Marin here with you again. He let me have a part here, he gave me the opportunity to be with you in this chat, and I will leave him here with you again.

May God bless you and keep you all.

“JESUS CHRIST RESTORING THE POWER TO HIS CHURCH THROUGH THE PROPHET ELIJAH.”
