The mystery of the Seven Thunders for the final awakening, transformation and rapture

Good morning, beloved friends and brethren present. It is a very great privilege for me to be with you on this occasion, to share a few moments of spiritual fellowship around the Word of God and His Program relevant to this Last Day, and to see this topic that you have for this occasion, titled:

“THE MYSTERY OF THE SEVEN THUNDERS FOR THE FINAL AWAKENING, TRANSFORMATION AND RAPTURE.”

It is a subject that only in this Last Day could be clarified, to see it face to face and understand all that this subject entails.

For that I want to read in Revelation, chapter 10, verse 1 to 11, where it tells us as follows:

“And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:

And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth,

And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.

And when the seven thunders had uttered their voices, I was about to write: and I heard a voice from heaven saying unto me, Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and write them not.

And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hand to heaven,

And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are therein, that there should be time no longer:

But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.

And the voice which I heard from heaven spake unto me again, and said, Go and take the little book which is open in the hand of the angel which standeth upon the sea and upon the earth.

And I went unto the angel, and said unto him, Give me the little book. And he said unto me, Take it, and eat it up; and it shall make thy belly bitter, but it shall be in thy mouth sweet as honey.

And I took the little book out of the angel’s hand, and ate it up; and it was in my mouth sweet as honey: and as soon as I had eaten it, my belly was bitter.

And he said unto me, Thou must prophesy again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings.”

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

Our topic (as I already told you) for this occasion is: “THE MYSTERY OF THE SEVEN THUNDERS FOR THE FINAL AWAKENING, TRANSFORMATION AND RAPTURE.”

For the final awakening of whom? Of the Bride-Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, that is, of the Mystical Body of the Lord Jesus Christ. And for the transformation of our bodies; and the rapture, to go to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.

Now, in order to understand this subject we need to understand that the Seven Thunders are the Voice of Christ in His Coming, in Revelation, chapter 10. It is the Voice of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ in His Coming, as the Mighty Angel, placing one foot upon the sea (the right one) and the left foot upon the earth; and when He has placed His right foot upon the sea and His left foot upon the earth, see, He cries with a loud voice; it says [verse 2]:

“And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot on the earth,

And cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth…”

Now, you see, when He has His right foot on the sea and His left foot on the earth, it says that He cried out with a loud voice, as a lion roars:

“…and when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.”

Notice that Christ here, in Revelation, chapter 10, is as a Lion, for: “He cries out as when a lion roars.” It is Christ speaking to His Church in the Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom; speaking how? Speaking to her as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Reclaiming Work.

In His First Coming, we find that Christ was as the Lamb of God, and was speaking as the Lamb of God, and was making known the things that He would do in His First Coming, regarding the Work of Redemption to be carried out on Calvary’s Cross. That is why He spoke much about His death there in Jerusalem; and He said that He would be taken prisoner, would be judged, and would be condemned and would be crucified; but, He said: “But on the third day, I will rise again, I will resurrect.”¹

He also typified His death and resurrection in the temple, when He said: “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up.”² For that literal temple, which was there in Jerusalem, was a type of the Lord Jesus Christ.

Now, when He is speaking in… with those words: “Destroy this temple, and in three days I will raise it up,” He is speaking of the human temple of God, which is the body where God was dwelling; in other words, He is speaking of His own body, which is the Temple where God is dwelling and manifesting Himself in all His fullness in the First Coming of the Messiah.

And now, notice, how there is a temple made of stones: the temple that Solomon built, and then the temple or each one of those temples that was built in Jerusalem; every time the temple was destroyed, then later on there was a restoration of the temple there in Jerusalem.

We also find the temple built by Moses, of badger skins, with all the utensils of the temple service inside, which are made of different things, such as: gold, silver and bronze, and so on, as we can see throughout the book of Exodus and other books there in the Bible. We can see, also, that wood was also used on some occasions, or in different places, and so on.

But you see, when God created man, He created him to be His temple and God dwelt in that human temple.

Then we find that the construction of those literal temples, like the temple of Moses, the temple of Solomon and the other temples that were built in Jerusalem as a restoration of the temple there: they are type and figure of the human being, and they are type and figure of the Lord Jesus Christ, and they are type and figure of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; and they are type and figure of the human race, which will live for all eternity; which will be composed in the same way in which the tabernacle of Moses and the temple that Solomon built have been built.

And the position that each person will have in the Millennial Kingdom and then in eternity, will be according to the position in which he has been in the construction of the human race as a temple of God, where God will dwell in all His fullness.

Now, you see, Jesus Christ as the Temple of God, where He dwelt in all His fullness, could say: “Behold, one greater than the temple.”³ And He could also say: “Behold one greater than Solomon.”⁴ Because Solomon was the one who built the temple there in Jerusalem (that first temple), and Christ would be the one who would build the New Temple: The Temple built with human beings, which is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, a Temple built for the dwelling of God in Spirit in all His fullness.

God has been in that Temple, in the construction that has been taking place, and He has been dwelling in the soul of every son and daughter of God in the first fruits of the Spirit; but the promise is that for the Last Day God will come in Holy Spirit in all His fullness to that Temple; and He will come to every individual that is part of that Temple: He will come in all His fullness, and God will dwell in all His fullness, as He dwelt in our beloved Lord Jesus Christ.

Therefore, that will be the first occasion in which God will dwell in a group of people in all His fullness. So it is a greater event in the Divine Program, which is promised to be carried out in this Last Day.

And that requires the Coming of this Mighty Angel of Revelation, chapter 10, which is the Coming of Christ wrapped in a cloud, with the rainbow around His head, and with a little Book open in His hand, putting His right foot on the sea and His left foot on the earth; He comes with His eyes as a flame of fire and His feet as pillars of fire, in other words, like burnished bronze, glowing as in a furnace.

Now, see how these are the symbols that will be fulfilled in the Coming of Jesus Christ, the Mighty Angel, the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, which two thousand years ago came in human flesh in the person of Jesus. That was the Coming of the Messiah, the Coming of the Angel of the Lord, the Angel of the Covenant, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, who delivered the Hebrew people by the hand of Moses, coming in human flesh in all His fullness in the person of Jesus of Nazareth, of a prophet.

Now, see how simple the fulfillment of the promise of the Coming of the Messiah two thousand years ago was.

Who would have imagined that that young carpenter from Nazareth would be the veil of flesh, the instrument, the human Temple of God, where the First Coming of the Messiah as the Lamb of God, to take away the sin of the world, would be fulfilled? No one imagined that that young man from Nazareth named Jesus, a carpenter there in Nazareth…

You see, he wasn’t a great religious leader, he wasn’t a theologian, he wasn’t a high priest, he wasn’t a doctor of divinity, he wasn’t a scribe, he was none of that; he was a simple young carpenter from Nazareth. But that was the veil of flesh, that was the human Temple of God, where God dwelt in all His fullness, where the Angel of the Covenant dwelt, the Angel of the Lord, which is God Himself with His theophanic body living inside that body of flesh called Jesus of Nazareth.

That was the First Coming of the Messiah; and He came like that, in human flesh, in that simple form, to take away the sin of the world: that physical body dying on Calvary’s Cross as the Lamb of God.

When God promises a great thing to be carried out, you can see the simple way in which He fulfills it: By using a simple instrument, which is insignificant for mankind. And always, mankind, you see, when God promises to do something great, they are always waiting for a very important person to come so that God can do it through that important person. And what always appears is a simple prophet on the scene; and it is through that prophet that God fulfills that promise.

Notice, the deliverance of the Hebrew people…: The Hebrew people were waiting for the Coming of God, who was the one who promised the deliverance of the Hebrew people from bondage back in Egypt⁵; and when God came in that Pillar of Fire, then He veiled Himself in human flesh in the person of Moses.⁶

Moses had been a very important person in Egypt when he was up to 40 years old; but already at the age of 40, for killing an Egyptian, defending a Hebrew, he became a fugitive from the justice of the Egyptian empire; he was wanted by pharaoh’s justice, by pharaoh’s Court he was being sought to be condemned to death.⁷

And now, Moses flees from the pharaoh, he goes to Midian; there he lived in the family and with the family, in the house of Jethro, priest of Midian; and you see, Jethro was also a descendant of Abraham.

And now, we find that in the house of Jethro, priest of Midian, Moses receives the welcome, they welcomed Moses. Moses dwells there; he becomes a shepherd and becomes the son-in-law of Jethro, for he marries Zipporah, the eldest daughter of Jethro; and he has two sons through Zipporah.

And now, Moses was doing well there, he became a pastor of sheep; and he certainly became the one who was in charge of Jethro’s business.

And attending to all of that business of Jethro’s sheep, on one occasion he found himself shepherding Jethro’s sheep…; a simple job, and a profession that was an abomination to the Egyptians: to be a shepherd of sheep was an abomination to the Egyptian people⁸; but not to God.

And now, Moses, you see, he spends 40 years there in Midian as a shepherd⁹; and he had spent 40 years in Egypt as a prince¹⁰; and as a prince he couldn’t deliver the Hebrew people.

And now, as a shepherd, God is training him, preparing him; and he is forgetting the things he learned as a prince there in Egypt, all that Egyptian wisdom; and now he is receiving the Wisdom of God. God is teaching him there in the desert, where he is working as a shepherd and is being prepared for the ministry that God will operate through Moses for the liberation of the Hebrew people.

And when he was already 40 years there in Midian, Moses’ age was already 80 years old…; you see, already an old man for the human sight at this time. And now, you see, a man of 80 years of age, but full of vigor, full of strength, is called by God from the Pillar of Fire.

He is called by God from that Pillar of Fire, from that theophany; and God speaks to him and says to him: “Moses, Moses.” He answers him: “Here I am, Lord. Here I am.” God says to him: “Take your sandals off your feet, for the place you are treading on is holy”¹¹; because God was there and God was sanctifying that place. Because of the presence of the Holy of holies, of God, that place was sanctified at that time.

And now, God says from the Pillar of Fire: “I am the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac and the God of Jacob.” See, and it is the Angel of the Lord who is speaking there; because the Angel of the Lord is the same Lord in His theophanic body. God in His theophanic body is called: The Angel of the Lord, and He is also called: The Word; and that is nothing less than God in His theophanic body, body of the sixth dimension.

And now, God says to him: “I have heard the cry of my people Israel, and I have come down to deliver them.” Now God has come down to deliver the Hebrew people, and only Moses is seeing the Coming of God, the Coming of the Mighty Angel, the Coming of the Angel of the Lord; and He is in a cloud, in that Cloud of Fire. And now, He tells Moses that He sends him to Egypt, to bring His people Israel out of Egypt.¹²

And wasn’t God the one who was going to deliver the Hebrew people? Of course it was. But God has always used a man, a prophet; and through a prophet, God has manifested Himself and fulfilled what He has promised for every age and for every dispensation.

And Moses, you see, is a dispensational prophet; therefore, everything that God was going to reveal and do in that dispensation and in the beginning of that dispensation, He was going to do it through the prophet Moses. And that is why God veiled and revealed through Moses delivered the Hebrew people and gave the Message of the Law to the Hebrew people.

And God, you see, had promised that He would come and deliver the Hebrew people, the Angel of the Lord would come. And now, when He comes, He reveals Himself to His dispensational prophet, He speaks to him and veils Himself in human flesh in that dispensational prophet; and through that prophet, through that veil of flesh, is that God manifests Himself and fulfills His promise.

Also for the time of the coming of John the Baptist and Jesus, God said that He would come. Here it says, the Angel of the Covenant would come, the Angel of the Lord (Malachi, chapter 3); and it says that He would send His messenger before Him, to prepare the way before Him. Malachi, chapter 3, it says so. It says:

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

Here God is sending a messenger before God came, before the Angel of the Covenant came, the Angel of the Lord manifested. And this prophet was John the Baptist, who came preparing the way for Christ. He says:

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

Who is the Lord? The God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, the Lord of the Old Testament.

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

Who would come? The Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, the same one that came for the deliverance of the Hebrew people and appeared to Moses, and veiled Himself in Moses, and through the prophet Moses carried out the deliverance of the Hebrew people, and brought the divine judgments over the Egyptian empire at that time.

And now, for the fulfillment of the messianic promises, you see, the Angel of the Lord would come, the Angel of the Covenant, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, the Lord of the Old Testament. And when He came, notice, it was also promised in Isaiah, chapter 40, where it says as follows… Look at the great and wonderful way the Coming of God is announced. It says [verse 3]:

“The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the Lord, make straight in the desert a highway for our God.

Every valley shall be exalted, and every mountain and hill shall be made low: and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough places plain…”

This was done by the Holy Spirit through (whom?) John the Baptist. For when God speaks about the voice of one crying in the wilderness, or voice crying in the wilderness: there must be a man, a prophet, through whom to come that voice. He says:

“And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together: for the mouth of the Lord hath spoken it.”

What would be manifested? The glory of the Lord. And how would the glory of the Lord be manifested? It would be manifested in human flesh: God would come in human flesh, the Angel of the Covenant would come in human flesh.

And when He fulfilled that promise, you see, John the Baptist appeared preaching and preparing the way for the Messiah, the Lord. And then, when the glory of the Lord appeared manifested, it was the Coming of the Angel of the Lord, the Coming of the Angel of the Covenant in human flesh, in the person of Jesus. And it says that all flesh… it says:

“And the glory of the Lord shall be revealed, and all flesh shall see it together…”

In the midst of the Hebrew people, all those who saw Jesus in His ministry: They were seeing the glory of the Lord manifested in human flesh.

Now, although it says: “All flesh shall see it,” we find that not every human being who lived on this planet Earth saw that manifestation of God in human flesh when that manifestation was being carried out; but after the Work of Redemption was carried out by Christ on Calvary’s Cross, the Gospel of Grace has been preached for these last two thousand years, and the manifestation of the glory of the Lord has been presented in human flesh in the person of Jesus, in the First Coming of the Messiah as the Lamb of God taking away the sin of the world.

And through the Scriptures, through the preaching of the Gospel of Grace, we have seen the glory of the Lord manifested in human flesh in the person of Jesus; we have seen, throughout biblical history, the glory of the Lord manifested in human flesh in the person of Jesus, in the fulfillment of the First Coming of Christ.

And for the fulfillment of the Second Coming of Christ, the promise is that He will come as Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords. And that is why in Revelation, chapter 10, verse 1 to 11, we find that when He comes in the clouds, or in a cloud, wrapped in a cloud, He comes with a little Book open in His hand, He comes with the rainbow around His head, He comes with His eyes like a flame of fire and His feet like burnished bronze, shining as in a furnace; He puts His right foot on the sea and His left foot on the earth, and cries out as when a lion roars. Why? Because He comes as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords in His Reclaiming Work.

And now, for His Coming, for the Coming of the Angel of the Lord, the Mighty Angel, the Angel of the Covenant, which is God Himself with His theophanic body coming: He will have to have a veil of flesh here on Earth prepared, redeemed by the Blood of Jesus Christ, to veil Himself and reveal Himself in and through that veil of flesh, and speak to His Church as the Lion of the tribe of Judah.

Therefore, He will be speaking to His Church with the Seven Thunders, crying out “as when a lion roars and seven thunders uttering their voices.” Those Seven Thunders are the Voice of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah speaking to His Church; speaking to His Church with the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom and revealing to her all these things that must happen soon, in the Last Day.

Now, the fulfillment of that promise is the manifestation of the glory of the Lord, the glory of the Father, the glory of Jesus Christ in the Last Day.

And of the knowledge of that manifestation of the glory of God, of the glory of the Father manifested on Earth in the Last Day, is that the whole Earth will be filled during the seventh millennium; and it is there where the whole Earth will be filled with the knowledge of the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Reclaiming Work.

And Christ will establish His glorious Millennial Kingdom after the great tribulation, and we will reign with Christ for a thousand years and then for all eternity.

But in order to reign with Christ for a thousand years, we must have an eternal body; and in order to have an eternal body, we must be transformed; and in order to be transformed, let’s see what the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ tells us.

In order to be transformed and raptured, and go to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, we need to have faith of rapture, faith to be transformed and raptured; and we are going to see how we are to receive that faith to be transformed and raptured in the Last Day. In the book of The Seals in Spanish, the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, Reverend William Marrion Branham, says: “Now…” Page 128 of The Seals, it says:¹³

“^258. Seven Thunders, of Revelation, may He show the Bride how to prepare for the great translation faith (that is, that faith of rapture)!”

What does the Church-Bride of the Lord Jesus Christ need in order to be transformed and raptured? She needs the revelation of the Seven Thunders of Revelation, chapter 10, verse 1 to 11; she needs to hear the Voice of Christ; she needs to hear the Voice of Christ, which, when He cries, Seven Thunders utter His voices; it is the Voice of Christ giving us the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom in the Last Day.

And now, let’s see what it tells us about the Thunders in the book of The Seals, page 212 in Spanish; let’s see what it says here:¹⁴

“^182. Now that’s what’s the reason today, that, the—the revivals that we’re supposed to have, we have denominational revivals. We haven’t had a real stirring. No, no, no. No, sir. Don’t think we got revivals. We haven’t. Oh, they’ve got millions and millions and millions of church members, but not a revival nowhere. No. No.

^183. The—the Bride hasn’t had a revival yet. See? There’s been no revival there, no manifestation of God to stir the Bride yet. See? We’re looking for it now. It’ll take those seven unknown Thunders back there, to wake Her up again, see. Yeah. He’ll send it. He promised it.”

What is it that will awaken the Bride of the Lord Jesus Christ, that will give her an awakening or revival? The Seven Thunders of Revelation, chapter 10, which are the Voice of Christ crying as when a Lion roars; and thus speaking to His Church in the Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone.

In order for us to understand this mystery, let us look at the diagram of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ from age to age, which was presented by the Reverend William Marrion Branham in the message “The Stature of a Perfect Man,”¹⁵ and also in the message or series of The Seven Ages of the gentile Church; he presented the Mystical Body of Christ in the form of a pyramid, which has been growing from age to age.

The first Church age among the gentiles was the age represented in the church of Ephesus; and that age was fulfilled in Asia Minor, and its messenger was the apostle Saint Paul; God awakened His Church there in that age; you see, there was a revival, an awakening, by means of the Holy Spirit through Saint Paul speaking to His people, and calling and gathering His elect in that first age, as Christ had promised in John, chapter 10, verse 14 to 16, when He said:

“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  (that is, they are not of the Hebrew people, but gentiles): them also I must bring, and they shall hear my voice; and there shall be one fold, and one shepherd.”

How would the sheep of Christ hear the Voice of Christ, the sheep of the Good Shepherd, the sheep that the Father would give Him to give them eternal life; if Christ died, resurrected and ascended to Heaven, how would they hear the Voice of Christ among the gentiles, the elect of God? By means of the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit through every angel messenger, which He sent for each of the stages of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ among the gentiles. So through Saint Paul, Christ was speaking as the Lamb of God and as High Priest in the Dispensation of Grace.

Then, in the second age, He spoke through Irenaeus. Then, in the third, fourth, fifth and sixth, he spoke through: Martin, Columba, Luther and Wesley; five stages or ages of the gentile Church were fulfilled in Europe, just as the first was fulfilled in Asia Minor.

Then He goes to North America, Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit, and fulfills the seventh stage or age of the gentile Church, and speaks through His seventh angel messenger: The Reverend William Marrion Branham; and He calls and gathers His elect for that seventh stage of the gentile Church and for this gap that is between the seventh stage and the eighth stage of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

See how the Voice of Christ was from age to age through each angel messenger calling and gathering the sheep that Christ would have among the gentiles, which would hear the Voice of Christ, and they would be gathered where? They would be gathered, called and gathered, in the age relevant to the time in which each one would be living; and thus they would enter the Fold of the Lord, which is the Mystical Body of Christ, which is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ going through these different stages.

And now, for the Last Day: How will we hear the Voice of Christ in the Age of the Cornerstone? Well, it is here where the Voice of Christ would be in this Last Day; because the seventh angel messenger has already left, therefore, the Voice of Christ is no longer in the first angel messenger, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth or seventh; but the Voice of Christ is up here, saying with that Voice of Trumpet: “Come up hither, and I will show you the things that will come to pass after these.”¹⁶ After “these” which have already happened during the seven stages or ages of the gentile Church.

Therefore, the Voice of Christ has to be there, Christ has to be in Holy Spirit manifested in human flesh in a prophet messenger up here, to be able to speak to His Church with that Voice as a Lion of the tribe of Judah, with that Voice crying as when a lion roars and Seven Thunders uttering their voices.

And He says: “Come up hither, and I will show thee the things which must come to pass after these things.”

The promise is to come up; it is that He will make known to us all these things that must shortly be done; but there is a requirement for that: and that is to come up where? Come up here, to the Age of the Cornerstone. Just as He was in each age, speaking in each age through the messenger of each age, up here He would be speaking to His Church through a prophet messenger.

Let’s see through whom is it that He makes known to us all these things that must happen soon; and that is then the prophet messenger for the Age of the Cornerstone, through whom He speaks in the Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, with the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, with the Message of the Seven Thunders of Revelation, chapter 10; and thus gives us the faith, the revelation, of the Second Coming of Christ, the revelation to be transformed and raptured in this Last Day; just as the revelation of the First Coming of Christ is to receive our redemption, to receive the forgiveness of our sins, and to receive the Holy Spirit according to how Christ has promised, and to become part of the Mystical Body of the Lord Jesus Christ.

And the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords in His Reclaiming Work is required to be transformed and raptured. And that revelation is brought by Jesus Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, in His Coming, in His manifestation in the Last Day; and through His Angel Messenger He veils Himself in human flesh and reveals Himself, and makes known to us this mystery; He speaks to us with that Great Voice of Trumpet, He speaks to us with that Voice crying as when a lion roars and seven thunders uttering their voices; in other words, the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom emerges and is heard, the Message that revolves around the Second Coming of Christ in this Last Day.

And with that Message being proclaimed in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom: Christ —through His Angel Messenger— makes known to us all these things that must happen soon, including the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, and all that His Second Coming entails, and everything that revolves around His Second Coming.

And to be listening to that Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom making known to us all these things, is to be listening to the Voice of Christ crying as when a lion roars and seven thunders uttering their voices; it is to be listening to the Seven Thunders of Revelation, chapter 10, which is the Voice of Christ crying as when a lion roars. See how He would cry and how we would hear the Seven Thunders of Revelation, chapter 10, verse 1 to 11.

Now, what do the Seven Thunders of Revelation, chapter 10 reveal, according to what corresponds to the Last Day? The forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, notice, he told us —about the Seven Thunders— that it would be what would give faith for the rapture to the Bride; he also said that it would be the Seven Thunders that would awaken the Bride, in other words, would give her a revival.

And on one occasion our brother Branham was meditating, and when he was meditating he wondered if another awakening would come, another revival, for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; because from age to age a revival has come when God has sent the angel messenger of each age, to whom He has revealed His Word; and the Word of God has come for that age revealed in and through that angel messenger; and when that messenger has preached the Message that God has given him for that time: a spiritual awakening, a revival, has emerged in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; and a new age has begun.

Now, we have had seven spiritual awakenings here, that is, seven revivals. But now look at the question that the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ asks; and notice that an awakening is promised, a revival for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, and it says that the Thunders will be the ones that will awaken the Church, they will give that revival.

And now look, in the message entitled “God’s Only Provided Place of Worship” (page 2), it speaks of that awakening; and here in the book of Quotations, page 166, we find that excerpt of that message. It says… page 166, paragraph 1485:¹⁷

“^6. Now, there’s… I was… getting pretty old, and I thought, ‘Will I… Will there be another revival, I’ll see another time?’ And just remember, from the west will come a white horse rider. We’ll ride this trail again. That’s right. Soon as we (‘as we are’ or ‘as we are ready,’ or ‘almost ready,’ or) get ready. It’s a promise, you see.”

Now, here it tells us that a Rider will come on a white horse. And where does it say he will come from? From the West, that is, from the occident. And the West, you see, consists of: North America, Central America, South America and the Caribbean. And now, Jesus Christ being in Holy Spirit in North America, veiled and revealed through His seventh angel messenger, giving there the Word for that time, now He sees a new revival, a new awakening, for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, which is to come; and that awakening will come through the Coming of that Rider on that white horse.

In other words, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, after the seventh messenger of the seventh age of the gentile Church, having the promise of a new awakening, depends on the Coming of that Rider on that white horse to receive that awakening; because that is the white horse Rider of Revelation, chapter 19.

That is why it says: “It is a promise.” And if it is a promise, it has to be in the Bible. And where is it in the Bible? It is in Revelation, chapter 19: It is the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, which is the Coming of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit for the Last Day, for the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, where? In the American continent.

But in which part of the American continent?, because He was already manifested in the American continent in the northern part: in North America. And now, for the part of Central and South America and the Caribbean, He hadn’t been manifested, He hadn’t sent an angel messenger; therefore, that territory remains for the fulfillment of the Coming of the white horse Rider of Revelation, chapter 19, with a Sword coming out of His mouth; which is the Word, the Message of God, coming out of the mouth of the messenger of God for the Last Day, for the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom.

Under the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit, the white horse Rider of Revelation, through His Angel Messenger: This promise will be fulfilled in the Last Day in the West, in the part of Latin America and the Caribbean; because the part of North America was already fulfilled during the seventh age of the gentile Church, and God was manifested in the Reverend William Marrion Branham, the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ and seventh angel messenger of the seventh age of the gentile Church.

Therefore, the Coming of the white horse Rider is for the Age of the Cornerstone; it is the Coming of the Holy Spirit, it is the Coming of Christ in Holy Spirit, which is the white horse Rider of Revelation.

See here, on page 277 of the book of The Seals in Spanish, he says, praying says our brother Branham. Here, let’s read this part of the prayer, it says:¹⁸

“^[391]. …may the Holy Spirit come down now, the white-horse Rider, while His Spirit, Spirit of Christ, in the face of antichrist, and call His Own.”

Who is the white horse Rider of Revelation, chapter 19? The Holy Spirit. Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit is the white horse Rider of Revelation, chapter 19.

And how will Jesus Christ come in the Last Day? Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit, how will He come manifested in the Last Day? Let’s see what the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ also said here, because he is the one who is preparing the way for the white horse Rider of Revelation; in other words, he is preparing the way for the Angel of the Lord, the Angel of the Covenant, which is the Holy Spirit, which is the white horse Rider, which is the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, which is Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit.

Now, how does it say He will come? On page 256 of the book of The Seals in Spanish, it says:¹⁹

“^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.”

That is the Coming of the white horse Rider of Revelation, chapter 19; that is the Coming of the Mighty Angel in human flesh on Earth at the Last Day, crying as when a lion roars and seven thunders uttering their voices; in other words, it is the Coming of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit in human flesh in His Angel Messenger, giving us His Final Message: The Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom; and with that Message revealing to us all these things which must shortly be done, in the Last Day; and making known to us the mystery of the Coming of Christ, of the Coming of Jesus Christ in the Last Day in His Angel Messenger; Jesus Christ coming in Holy Spirit in His Angel Messenger manifested in human flesh, and thus speaking to His Church in the Age of the Cornerstone and making known to her all these things which must happen soon.

To be listening to Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit through His Angel Messenger in the Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom, giving us the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom: Is to be hearing the Voice of the Seven Thunders of Revelation, chapter 10; it is to be hearing the Voice of Christ; it is to be hearing the Voice of Christ revealing to us the mystery of the Seventh Seal, the mystery of the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Reclaiming Work.

The Gospel of the Kingdom, as we have seen, revolves around the Second Coming of Christ and His Reclaiming Work as the Lion of the tribe of Judah.

And notice how all these blessings that would be being manifested in the Last Day, in the Coming of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit through His Angel Messenger, speaking to us with that Great Voice of Trumpet, speaking to us with that Voice of the Seven Thunders, speaking to us with that Voice as of a lion when it cries and the seven thunders uttering their voices; notice how this promise for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ would be fulfilled in the Last Day through the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit through His Angel Messenger.

That is the way Jesus Christ would be speaking to His Church in this Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom; and thus He would be making known to us all these things that must happen soon, in the Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone.

And that is how a spiritual awakening, a revival, would emerge in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, in the stage of the Age of the Cornerstone.

Because for these stages, there are no more revivals; the revival for the first age, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth and seventh, came when God sent the messenger of each of those ages; and for the territory where those ages were fulfilled, the awakening, the revival, came from Christ by means of His manifestation through the angel messenger of each age.

Now, the final awakening, the awakening of the Last Day, is for the Age of the Cornerstone and for the territory where that age is being fulfilled; and the territory is: Latin America and the Caribbean.

See where God would have the revival, the final awakening, the awakening of the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom: He would have it to be manifested in Latin America and the Caribbean, where the Seven Thunders would be giving their voices in an unknown language to the seventh angel messenger, the sixth angel messenger, the fifth angel messenger, the fourth angel messenger, the third angel messenger, the second angel messenger and the first angel messenger; because they didn’t have that language; they had the language that God gave them, for Christ through that messenger to speak in that language.

But now Christ would have: a new language, to speak as when a lion roars; and the Seven Thunders would utter their voices in that language that He would have to use in the Last Day; which would be the language of the Angel Messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone and of the Dispensation of the Kingdom; that is why the Thunders would utter their voices in another language, in a language unknown to the seventh angel messenger, who spoke English.

And since it wouldn’t be in the language of any of the seven angel messengers, that Christ would speak as Lion of the tribe of Judah; it wouldn’t be in any of those seven languages that they spoke, or in the language that they had…; which were used by Christ in the age in which they were sent.

Now, why would it not be the language that each one of those angel messengers had? Because it wouldn’t be in the territory of those angel messengers: the manifestation of Christ as Lion of the tribe of Judah through His Angel Messenger crying as when a lion roars and seven thunders uttering their voices.

See, the Thunders utter their voices, where? On Earth. Christ with one foot in the sea and the other on land, cries out as when a lion roars and seven thunders utter their voices; the Voice of Christ emerges, the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom, making known to us all these things that must shortly be done. That is the Voice of Christ, that is the Great Voice of Trumpet, making known to us all these things which must happen soon.

And through whom is it that Christ fulfills that promise: “Making known to us all these things which must shortly be done”? Revelation, chapter 22, verse 6, 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.”

Notice, whom does He send to show His servants, His Church (and then the Hebrew people), the things that are to take place soon, in the Last Day? He sends His Angel Messenger. What for? To make known all these things that must shortly be done; because that is the Sent One of Christ, that is the Sent One of God with the Spirit of Christ in him, to, through that messenger, Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit make known to His Church all these things that must happen soon.

And thus to speak to her with that Great Voice of Trumpet, with that Voice of the Seven Thunders, to speak to His Church and reveal to her all these things; and above all, the mystery of the Seventh Seal: The mystery of the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Reclaiming Work.

That is how Christ would be speaking to His Church in the Last Day through His Angel Messenger; and that is why again in Revelation 22, verse 16, reconfirms that He has sent His Angel Messenger, or reconfirms… we could say: reconfirms, or we could say: extra reconfirms… if you can understand it better. Why? Because look, Revelation, chapter 1, verse 1 to 3, it says:

“The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John…”

It says here that the revelation was made known in this symbolic form to John, through whom? By His Angel Messenger sent to John the apostle.

Now, here it is said that the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ is sent.

And then in Revelation 22, verse 6, it also says that: “The God of the spirits of the prophets (which is the Lord), has sent His Angel, to show unto His servants the things which must shortly come to pass.”

And now in Revelation, chapter 22, verse 16, it reconfirms or extra reconfirms (as we could also say). It says:

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

There we have, more than confirmed!: Extra reconfirmed!: the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ sent to testify of all these things that must shortly be done, in the Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom.

This was the Angel Messenger of Jesus Christ who was sent by Jesus Christ to the apostle Saint John, who revealed to him in this symbolic form all this revelation of the book of Revelation.

In other words, this prophet messenger of the Lord Jesus Christ, called the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ, who is a dispensational prophet, who comes in the Last Day with the spirit and power of Elijah for the fifth time, with the spirit and power of Moses for the second time, and with the spirit and power of Jesus for the second time: this Angel Messenger, notice how he ministered this apocalyptic revelation to the apostle Saint John in the decade of the 90’s, and transported John the apostle to the Last Day.

See how he transported John the apostle to the Last Day; and John heard in the Last Day, in the Lord’s Day, the Voice of Christ as a Great Voice of Trumpet saying: “I am the Alpha and Omega. I am the first and the last.”

And that same Voice in Revelation, chapter 4, says: “Come up hither, and I will show you the things which shall be hereafter.”

And then that same Voice through His Angel Messenger, which is sent, and in which Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit is veiled and revealed through human flesh: Jesus Christ through His Angel Messenger, notice, He makes known all these things which must shortly be done.

And that is why the Angel Messenger appears making known all these things which must shortly come to pass: because in him is Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit manifested in the Last Day. And that Angel Messenger speaks —inspired by the Holy Spirit— all these things which must shortly come to pass, in the Last Day, in the end time.

Just as he showed John, by means of these apocalyptic symbols, all these things that would happen during the different stages or ages of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ during the last days, that is, during the fifth, sixth and seventh millennium.

And that is why, also, we find there what will happen to the Hebrew people during the seventh millennium; and we also saw what happened to the Hebrew people during these two thousand years that have passed, where they have been persecuted, and many have been killed or slain, by the millions; by Hitler, Mussolini and Stalin, and by other dictators, and also by other emperors; by others who from the time of the destruction of the temple and on persecuted the Hebrew people, took them captive.

And the wrath of God was kindled upon the Hebrew people; because the Hebrew people no longer had a temple to offer sacrifice to God; and the sacrifice they offered in the temple was no longer effective, because God had already sent a new Sacrifice, which had been represented in those sacrifices that the Hebrew people performed.

God had already sent the Lamb of God and had made the Sacrifice on Calvary’s Cross. That is why all other sacrifices were taken away. And only one Sacrifice for sin has remained, both for the gentiles and for the Hebrew people.

Without that Sacrifice the person is in trouble before God: for his sins are not taken away, they are not covered or removed; therefore, the wages of sin, being death:²⁰ the divine judgment must come upon those people, upon those nations, and even upon the Hebrew people; and that is why the Hebrew people, during these two thousand years that have passed, have been under divine judgment.

But, notice, in the Last Day they will have the Sacrifice for sin, the Sacrifice of Christ: they will accept it; and their sins will be taken away, and they will receive thereafter the blessing of God.

And the Spirit of God will be dwelling in the midst of the Hebrew people, as a nation, through the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit through His Angel Messenger; which will sit with Christ on His Throne, as Christ has promised: “To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me (where?) in my Throne; even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in His Throne.”

The same thing that the Father did, Jesus Christ does with the Overcomer, with the faithful and wise servant, with His Angel Messenger, who in the Last Day will be present to obtain that blessing; which he will obtain through faith: by believing what Christ has promised here in the Word, and giving the Food in time to all the elect of God, the spiritual food of the Word of God, of the Gospel of the Kingdom, with which He makes known to His children, to the children of God, to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ in the Age of the Cornerstone, all these things that must happen soon, in this Last Day; and thus He reveals to him the mystery of the Seventh Seal.

Now, see why the Seventh Seal wasn’t revealed by the seventh angel messenger: because the Seventh Seal had not yet been fulfilled here, in the gentile Church ages; it would be fully fulfilled here, in the Age of the Cornerstone; but it had been reflected through the manifestation of Christ through each of these seven angel messengers.

The ones in whom it was most reflected were Saint Paul and the Reverend William Marrion Branham. And that is why we find that he prophesied of the Coming of Christ for the Last Day, the Reverend William Marrion Branham prophesied more than Saint Paul and more than the prophets of the Old Testament. Why? Because he was the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ; and being the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ was the closest it was; but it was for a new age and for a new dispensation.

But see how he presented the Coming of Christ: “Coming on a snow-white horse and being fully Emmanuel, the Word of God incarnate in a man.” And that Rider coming on that white horse (from where?) from the West. See how it was revealed that the Coming of that white horse Rider, which is the Coming of Christ, would be from the West, would be the Word incarnate in a westerner.

See how simple the whole Divine Program is. Everything is here, in the Word. Everything is promised in the Word; and that is why Reverend William Marrion Branham could say: “It is a promise.” Why? Because it was in the Scripture.

And now we know where the white horse Rider would come from, where the Word incarnated in a man would come from, where the fulfillment of the Coming of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit in human flesh in His Angel Messenger would come from: it would be from the West.

And from the West, for the manifestation of God for the Last Day, only Latin America and the Caribbean remained; because it had already had the manifestation of the seventh age of the gentile Church and the seventh angel of the gentile Church: He had already had it (where?) in North America. And now only Latin America and the Caribbean remained for Him to fulfill the rest of His Program, in a new age and in a new dispensation.

Look where we are in the Divine Program in this Last Day: we are in the most glorious time of all times: at the time when the elect in the Age of the Cornerstone are hearing the voices of the Seven Thunders of Revelation, chapter 10, which is the Voice of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, being veiled and revealed in the Age of the Cornerstone, in His Angel Messenger; and speaking through His Angel Messenger all these things which must happen soon.

How does He speak to us these things which must shortly be done? Through the Message of the Gospel of the Kingdom. And thus producing a spiritual awakening in the Mystical Body of Christ in the stage of the Age of the Cornerstone. And thus preparing us to be transformed and raptured in this Last Day.

See how the faith of rapture would come, the faith to be transformed and raptured in the Last Day, which was (where?) in the Seven Thunders of Revelation, chapter 10.

And notice how we would hear the Seven Thunders of Revelation, chapter 10: It would be hearing the Voice of Jesus Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah through His Angel Messenger, in the preaching of the Gospel of the Kingdom, which revolves around the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords, in His Reclaiming Work.

Did you see how simple it all is? Even the children have understood it in Latin America and the Caribbean!, how much more the grown-ups!

Now, notice that this was a mystery that would be opened, revealed, manifested in Latin America and the Caribbean; and that is why God would have in Latin America and the Caribbean His elect of the Age of the Cornerstone, which would be the first ones to enter the Dispensation of the Kingdom.

He would have them in Latin America and the Caribbean for what? To see and receive Jesus Christ coming in Holy Spirit on a snow-white horse, and being completely Emmanuel: The Word of God, the Word incarnate in a man: in the Angel Messenger of the Lord Jesus Christ. And thus speaking to us with that Voice of the Seven Thunders, and awakening us, giving us that spiritual awakening, that spiritual revival, there in the depths of our soul, and thus preparing us to be transformed and raptured in this Last Day, in Latin America and the Caribbean.

It has been a great privilege for me to be with you giving testimony of: “THE MYSTERY OF THE SEVEN THUNDERS FOR THE FINAL AWAKENING, TRANSFORMATION AND RAPTURE.” Of whom? Of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.

May the blessings of Jesus Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, be upon each one of you and upon me also; and may the number of God’s elect in the Age of the Cornerstone soon be completed, and thus the number of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ be completed; and may we soon be transformed, and the dead in Christ be resurrected, and then we all be raptured, translated, to Heaven, to the House of our heavenly Father, to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. In the Eternal Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen and amen.

Well, we have seen this mystery of the Seven Thunders for the final awakening of (whose?) the Church-Bride of the Lord Jesus Christ, and for the transformation and the rapture of the Church-Bride of the Lord Jesus Christ, of the elect, in this Last Day.

Thank you very much for your kind attention, and may you continue to have a day filled with the blessings of Jesus Christ; and may Christ continue to open our understanding and reveal to us the rest of the things that are yet to be known; and may we be prepared to be transformed and raptured.

May God bless you and keep you all.

I leave with us again Reverend Roberto Monsibaez, to continue and finish our part, and then continue traveling to arrive (where?)… to arrive to the activity of the little cubs (is it?), to the activity of the little cubs there in the Tent, in Colonia Moises Saenz, there where Reverend Roberto Monsibaez is the minister; where the little cubs are there waiting for us to be with them at 11:00; but 11:00 has already passed, but they will still be there waiting to have some moments of spiritual fellowship around the Word of God, in the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom.

Well, may God continue to bless you all, and with us Reverend Roberto Monsibaez.

God bless you.

“THE MYSTERY OF THE SEVEN THUNDERS FOR THE FINAL AWAKENING, TRANSFORMATION AND RAPTURE.”
