Good evening, beloved friends and brethren present. It is a great blessing to be with you on this occasion to share some moments of fellowship around the Word of God and His Program pertaining to this end time.
For which I want to read Revelation, chapter 5, verse 1 to 7, and Revelation, chapter 8, verses 1 to 5. And Revelation, chapter 5, verse 1 and on says as follows:
“And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book written within and on the backside, sealed with seven seals.
And I saw a strong angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the book, and to loose the seals thereof?
And no man in heaven, nor in earth, neither under the earth, was able to open the book, neither to look thereon.
And I wept much, because no man was found worthy to open and to read the book, neither to look thereon.
And one of the elders saith unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Judah, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the book, and to loose the seven seals thereof.
And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.
And when he had taken the book, the four beasts and four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb, having every one of them harps, and golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints.
And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to take the book, and to open the seals thereof: for thou wast slain, and hast redeemed us to God by thy blood out of every kindred, and tongue, and people, and nation;
And hast made us unto our God kings and priests: and we shall reign on the earth.”
And Revelation, chapter 8, verse 1 to 5, says the following:
“And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of half an hour.
And I saw the seven angels which stood before God; and to them were given seven trumpets.
And another angel came and stood at the altar, having a golden censer; and there was given unto him much incense, that he should offer it with the prayers of all saints upon the golden altar which was before the throne.
And the smoke of the incense, which came with the prayers of the saints, ascended up before God out of the angel’s hand.
And the angel took the censer, and filled it with fire of the altar, and cast it into the earth: and there were voices, and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake.”
May God bless our souls with His Word and allow us to understand It.
Our subject for this occasion is: “THE POSITION OF THE SEVENTH SEAL IN THE TEMPLE OF GOD.”
In order to understand the position of the Seventh Seal in the Temple of God, we need to understand what the Seventh Seal is, because the Seventh Seal is 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 we find that the Second Coming of Christ is the greatest event promised to be fulfilled at the Last Day, of which our beloved Lord Jesus Christ said that no man —not in Heaven nor on Earth, not even the angels— knew the day or the hour1</a>; because that event would only be opened, revealed at the time in which that great event would be in fulfillment on this planet Earth.
And this mystery would be opened in Heaven to those who are in Heaven, but they would remain in silence for about half an hour, it says in Revelation, chapter 8, verse 1. It is half an hour of Heaven’s time because that silence is (where?) in Heaven.
And now, the reason why and for which there was this silence in Heaven is so that the Second Coming of Christ is completely fulfilled, without any interruption regarding the Second Coming of Christ, so that the devil is not able to interrupt the mystery of the Second Coming of Christ being fulfilled here on Earth.
And now, let’s see what the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ said regarding that Seventh Seal, which is the Second Coming of Christ.
The mystery of that Seventh Seal is revealed to the Church of Jesus Christ by Christ Himself speaking to His Church as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords in His Reclaiming Work; because when He speaks in Revelation, chapter 10, verse 1 and on, it says that He cries as when a lion roars. In other words, He comes crying as a Lion, speaking as a Lion; He comes with that Message of God, that Last Message, the Message of the Great Voice of Trumpet of the Gospel of the Kingdom, and He comes with that Message, crying as when a lion roars. It says:
“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.”
Now, notice what follows, it says:
“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…”
Now notice, this Angel here who comes crying as when a lion roars, let’s see who He is. The forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ said in the message of The Seven Seals… In the book of The Seals, page 57 says2:
“‘And he came and took the book out of the right hand of him that sat upon the throne.’
(That is the last sentence here in chapter 5, verse 7).
This Seven-Seal Book is revealed at the time of the Seven Thunders of Revelation 10, now, if you’re marking it down. Let’s turn to Revelation 10, just a moment, so you’ll get an understanding before we get into it. Now, this is at the end time. For, listen:
‘…I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow…upon his head,…’
If you notice, that’s Christ, see. Cause, He, in the Old Testament, was called the Angel of the Covenant. And He is directly coming to the Jews now, for the Church is finished. See? All right.
‘…and his face…as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:’
You remember that Angel in Revelation 1? Same thing. Angel is a ‘messenger.’ And He’s the Messenger to Israel. See? The Church has been raptured, see, now, or fixing to be raptured. He comes for His Church.”
Now notice, He is the Messenger to Israel and He comes for His Church; He is the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord of the Old Testament, who was later manifested among the Hebrew people in human flesh and was known by the name of Jesus, because that was the name of the veil of flesh.
And for the Last Day, that same Angel of the Lord, the Angel of the Covenant, will come to Earth again, according to Revelation, chapter 19. He comes on a snow white horse, and He is the Word of God. Revelation, chapter 19, verse 11 and on, says:
“And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.
His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.
And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.”
Who is the one that comes in Revelation, chapter 19, verse 11 and on? The Word of God comes; the Angel of the Covenant comes, the Angel of the Lord, who came two thousand years ago veiled in human flesh in that young carpenter from Nazareth named Jesus.
And now, at the Last Day, the Word of God will come again, the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord; the Word of God, the theophanic body of God (where God is) comes manifested at the Last Day in human flesh according to the prophecy.
And what is His Coming at the Last Day going to be? His Coming is promised both in the Old Testament and in the New Testament.
Notice, in Isaiah, chapter 63, we find Revelation, chapter 19, verse 11 and on. Let’s see what it says there and we will see whether or not it is the same character who is here:
“Who is this that cometh from Edom, with dyed garments from Bozrah? this that is glorious in his apparel, travelling in the greatness of his strength? I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.
Wherefore art thou red in thine apparel, and thy garments like him that treadeth in the winefat?
I have trodden the winepress alone; and of the people there was none with me: for I will tread them in mine anger, and trample them in my fury; and their blood shall be sprinkled upon my garments, and I will stain all my raiment.
For the day of vengeance is in mine heart, and the year of my redeemed is come.
And I looked, and there was none to help; and I wondered that there was none to uphold: therefore mine own arm brought salvation unto me; and my fury, it upheld me.
And I will tread down the people in mine anger, and make them drunk in my fury, and I will bring down their strength to the earth.”
And now, let’s continue with Revelation 19 and we will see; now, it says here:
“And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.”
And here He says:
“I that speak in righteousness, mighty to save.”
Who is He? He is the I Am, He is the Word of God; the I Am who appeared to Moses, who was God in theophany, who was the Word that was with God and was God, and said to Moses: “I am the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob”; and when he asked for His Name, He gave him four consonant letters; and Moses heard when God pronounced that Name, but currently, the Hebrew people do not know the pronunciation of that Name.
Now, it goes on to say:
“And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.”
He is the same one, who treads the winepress of the wrath of God:
“…the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.
And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, King Of Kings, And Lord Of Lords.”
Now, what did the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ say that Revelation, chapter 19, verse 11 and on, will be? In a few moments, we will see what he says, because this is also Isaiah, chapter 59, where Saint Paul got that prophecy to say the Deliverer will come to Israel out of Zion; and that will be when the fullness of the gentiles has come in.
And now, Zion represents the Church of Jesus Christ and Jerusalem represents the Hebrew people. And now, Jerusalem also represents the Church of the Lord, because the Church of Jesus Christ is the heavenly Jerusalem.
And now, let’s look in Isaiah, chapter 59; verse 17 and on, it says (17 to 21):
“For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments of vengeance for clothing (there you have it again, the garments of vengeance for clothing).”
[Verse 16] “…his arm brought salvation unto him; and his righteousness, it sustained him.
For he put on righteousness as a breastplate, and an helmet of salvation upon his head; and he put on the garments (we are reading it again) of vengeance for clothing, and was clad with zeal as a cloak.
According to their deeds (this is in revenge), accordingly he will repay, fury to his adversaries, recompence to his enemies; to the islands he will repay recompence.
So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west…”
From where will they start to fear the Name of the Lord? From the West; and in a few moments, we will see why they will start to fear the Name of the Lord from the West.
“…so shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west, and his glory from the rising of the sun. When the enemy shall come in like a flood (that is the antichrist), the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.”
The Spirit of the Lord coming at the Last Day, the Word coming at the Last Day, the Angel of the Lord coming at the Last Day, according to Revelation, chapter 19, He will come on a white horse; and He will come with that powerful Army; and there it is, the standard lifted up against the beast, the antichrist, and the ten kings who will give their power and strength to the beast. Because in Revelation, chapter 17, verse 13 and 14, referring to those ten kings, it says:
“These have one mind, and shall give their power and strength unto the beast.
These shall make war with the Lamb, and the Lamb shall overcome them: for he is Lord of lords, and King of kings: and they that are with him are called, and chosen, and faithful.”
All of that has to do with this prophecy of Isaiah and of Revelation, chapter 19. It says:
“And the Redeemer shall come to Zion…”
Zion is the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, and in some prophecies, Zion also represents the Hebrew people. But now, notice, He comes to the Church of Jesus Christ first, with whom He has been from age to age, manifested through each angel messenger; and at the Last Day, He will have a full manifestation in which God will lift up a standard against the enemy, against the antichrist.
And now:
“And the Redeemer shall come to Zion, and unto them that turn from transgression in Jacob, saith the Lord.
As for me, this is my covenant with them, saith the Lord; My spirit that is upon thee, and my words which I have put in thy mouth, shall not depart out of thy mouth, nor out of the mouth of thy seed, nor out of the mouth of thy seed’s seed, saith the Lord, from henceforth and for ever.”
And now, Saint Paul, speaking to us about that passage, quoting that passage, gives prophetic words related to the restoration of the Hebrew people as a nation and he tells us when that restoration of the Hebrew people will be. Let’s see what it says in Romans, chapter 11, verses 25 to 29, says:
“For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in.”
In other words, until the very last elect of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ has come in, which has been passing from age to age, from stage to stage, among the gentiles; and every once in a while, a Hebrew comes into the Mystical Body of Jesus Christ.
And when the fullness of the gentiles has come in, meaning, when the very last member of the Mystical Body of Christ has come in… The Last elect of God will come in at the Last Day, in the seventh millennium, and that will be in the Age of the Cornerstone.
And when the very last of the elect has come in, when the fullness of the elect has come in:
“…and so all Israel shall be saved: as it is written, There shall come out of Sion the Deliverer, and shall turn away ungodliness from Jacob:
For this is my covenant unto them, when I shall take away their sins.
As concerning the gospel, they are enemies for your sakes: but as touching the election, they are beloved for the father’s sakes.
For the gifts and calling of God are without repentance.”
Now we can see that there has been a wait time for the Hebrew people, a parenthesis between the First Coming of Christ and the Second Coming of Christ, a parenthesis of approximately two thousand years.
And the First Coming of Christ was fulfilled among the Hebrew people, who were waiting for the Coming of the Messiah at that time. And when Jesus began His ministry, the seventieth week of Daniel’s prophecy was beginning; therefore, the Messiah had to be on Earth at that time and He had to already be at an appropriate age to begin His ministry; and in the midst of that seventieth week (meaning, at the three and a half years of His ministry), the Messiah would be cut off, according to the prophecy of Daniel3. All of this was fulfilled in that young construction worker, Jesus of Nazareth.
The Hebrew people could not understand that the one who was inside that veil of flesh was none other than the Angel of the Lord, the Angel of the Covenant, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob; He was the Word made flesh.
“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
The same was in the beginning with God.
All things (Were made by whom? By him)…”
He is the one of whom Genesis, chapter 1, verse 1, testifies when it says:
“In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.”
He is the Word the Creator of the Heavens and the Earth, because the Word was with God and was God. He is the same God in His theophanic body, and from His theophanic body, He carried out all of the Creation; all of the Creation came from His theophanic body. In other words, all of Creation was where? It was in the Word, and that is where all of Creation emerged from. That is also why the Scripture says we were in Christ, that is also where we have come from.
And now, He came in human flesh: “And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us,” and was known by the name of Jesus. With His body of flesh, He carried out the Work of Redemption on Calvary’s Cross; God provided Himself a body, God provided a body for Himself, in order to lay down that body as a living Sacrifice for all the sons and daughters of God.
And now, He died, resurrected and ascended to Heaven victorious, He sat at the right hand of God in Heaven, making intercession on the seat of mercy in Heaven, which is the place of mercy, the Mercy Seat in Heaven, in the Temple that is in Heaven.
Just as the temple Solomon built and the tabernacle Moses built: had a most holy place where the ark of the covenant was; and on top of the ark of the covenant was the mercy seat, which is the lid of the ark of the covenant; and that base on the ark of the covenant is the place of mercy. The two cherubim of gold are there, made out of the same piece along with the mercy seat.
The mercy seat is made of pure gold, because that represents Divinity, gold represents Divinity.
And now, between the two cherubim of gold was the Pillar of Fire, the Shekinah, the Word was there, manifested in that Pillar of Fire.
And the high priest would bring the blood of atonement, both of the bullock as well as the goat, because the bullock was sacrificed for the priests, but the goat was sacrificed for all the people.
And now, we find that the blood was taken to that place one time, that is, one day in the year. The high priest entered the most holy place a few times on that day; and he first entered with the blood of the bullock and offered it as an atonement for the priests, for himself and for the other priests, and then he went out…
To enter into the most holy place, he would dress in linen; and when he would come out, he would take off that garment and put on the golden garment; and then, when he would return (when he would enter again), he would put on the clothing with which he had to enter into the most holy place; and now, he entered with the blood of the goat also mixed with the blood of the bullock that had been offered, sacrificed, for the priests.
Now notice, this is in Leviticus, chapter 16, verse 1 and on, it says:
“And the Lord spake unto Moses after the death of the two sons of Aaron, when they offered before the Lord, and died.”
They went where they had no business to go; they went there, into the most holy place, where they could not enter. And now, notice:
“And the LORD said unto Moses, Speak unto Aaron thy brother, that he come not at all times into the holy place within the vail before the mercy seat, which is upon the ark; that he die not: for I will appear in the cloud upon the mercy seat.”
Now notice, God was in that cloud-pillar of fire upon the mercy seat, between the two cherubim of gold. It continues:
“Thus shall Aaron come into the holy place: with a young bullock for a sin offering, and a ram for a burnt offering.
He shall put on the holy linen coat, and he shall have the linen breeches upon his flesh, and shall be girded with a linen girdle, and with the linen mitre shall he be attired: these are holy garments; therefore shall he wash his flesh in water, and so put them on.
And he shall take of the congregation of the children of Israel two kids of the goats for a sin offering, and one ram for a burnt offering.
And Aaron shall offer his bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and make an atonement for himself, and for his house.”
See? With the bullock or heifer, he would reconcile, he would make the atonement and reconciliation for himself (for the high priest) and for his house (meaning, for his priestly family).
“And he shall take the two goats, and present them before the Lord at the door of the tabernacle of the congregation.
And Aaron shall cast lots upon the two goats; one lot for the Lord, and the other lot for the scapegoat.
And Aaron shall bring the goat upon which the Lord’s lot fell, and offer him for a sin offering.
But the goat, on which the lot fell to be the scapegoat, shall be presented alive before the Lord, to make an atonement with him, and to let him go for a scapegoat into the wilderness.
And Aaron shall bring the bullock of the sin offering, which is for himself, and shall make an atonement for himself, and for his house, and shall kill the bullock of the sin offering which is for himself:
And he shall take a censer full of burning coals of fire from off the altar before the Lord, and his hands full of sweet incense beaten small, and bring it within the vail (meaning that he would go into the most holy place with the censer).
And he shall put the incense upon the fire before the Lord, that the cloud of the incense may cover the mercy seat (in other words, the cloud of the incense that is produced in the censer will be put on the mercy seat) that is upon the testimony, that he die not:
And he shall take of the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it with his finger upon the mercy seat eastward; and before the mercy seat shall he sprinkle of the blood with his finger seven times.
Then shall he kill the goat of the sin offering, that is for the people, and bring his blood within the vail, and do with that blood as he did with the blood of the bullock, and sprinkle it upon the mercy seat, and before the mercy seat:
And he shall make an atonement for the holy place, because of the uncleanness of the children of Israel, and because of their transgressions in all their sins: and so shall he do for the tabernacle of the congregation, that remaineth among them in the midst of their uncleanness.
And there shall be no man in the tabernacle of the congregation when he goeth in to make an atonement in the holy place, until he come out, and have made an atonement for himself, and for his household, and for all the congregation of Israel.
And he shall go out unto the altar that is before the Lord, and make an atonement for it; and shall take of the blood of the bullock, and of the blood of the goat, and put it upon the horns of the altar round about.
And he shall sprinkle of the blood upon it with his finger seven times, and cleanse it, and hallow it from the uncleanness of the children of Israel.
And when he hath made an end of reconciling the holy place, and the tabernacle of the congregation, and the altar, he shall bring the live goat:
And Aaron shall lay both his hands upon the head of the live goat, and confess over him all the iniquities of the children of Israel, and all their transgressions in all their sins, putting them upon the head of the goat, and shall send him away by the hand of a fit man into the wilderness:
And the goat shall bear upon him all their iniquities unto a land not inhabited: and he shall let go the goat in the wilderness.”
Now we can see everything the high priest had to do once a year, in other words, one day a year: on the tenth day of the seventh month of each month.
And now, in Exodus, chapter 25, God speaks to the prophet Moses. In chapter 25, verses 18 to 22, He says:
“And thou shalt make a mercy seat of pure gold: two cubits and a half shall be the length thereof, and a cubit and a half the breadth thereof.
And thou shalt make two cherubims of gold, of beaten work shalt thou make them, in the two ends of the mercy seat.
And make one cherub on the one end, and the other cherub on the other end: even of the mercy seat shall ye make the cherubims on the two ends thereof.
And the cherubims shall stretch forth their wings on high, covering the mercy seat with their wings, and their faces shall look one to another; toward the mercy seat shall the faces of the cherubims be.
And thou shalt put the mercy seat above upon the ark; and in the ark thou shalt put the testimony that I shall give thee.
And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel.”
And now, notice from where God would be speaking to the prophet Moses all the things He wanted to make known to the Hebrew people.
From the moment God has that temple or tabernacle built by Moses and that tabernacle begins to function, we find that God communes with the prophet Moses from above the mercy seat, because that tabernacle is already functioning and from there, God will speak to the prophet Moses.
Now, notice that only two people could go in the most holy place: one was the high priest and the other was (who?) Moses. Moses was not the high priest, but remember, he was the prophet of that dispensation; and we find that Aaron was his assistant; and if the assistant could go in, then even more so the person Aaron was assisting.
Now, we can see the ministry of Christ there in Moses and in Aaron.
And now, let’s see, in the temple Solomon built, he also placed the ark of the covenant inside the most holy place and he also built two giant cherubim of olive tree and overlaid them with gold; and he put them in the most holy place, one on each side, and he placed the ark of the covenant between those two cherubim.
The wings of the cherubim, one of the wings reached the wall and the other reached the center, where the ark of the covenant was, the center of the ark of the covenant; the other cherub, its wing reached the wall (one of its wings) and the other wing reached the center of the ark of the covenant, and there, it met the wing of the other cherub; that is where they met4.
And under the wings of those two large cherubim was the ark of the covenant, which had the mercy seat and also had two cherubim of gold; and (inside the ark of the covenant) was the manna, that was placed in a golden pot, which represents the revelation of Jesus Christ; and at the Last Day, that represents the revelation of Jesus Christ of His Second Coming; and at the Last Day, everything there will be materialized in the Mystical Body of Christ, in the Age of the Cornerstone, which is the age in which is represented the Most Holy Place of the Temple that is in Heaven, as well as the most holy place of the tabernacle Moses made and the temple Solomon built.
Now notice, through the prophecy of Zechariah, we find Two Olive Trees and two olive branches, too. Where do we find them? We find them in the Temple of God.
We find the candlestick or candelabra with seven burning lamps, which are the seven ages of the gentile Church, which pertain to the Holy Place of the spiritual Temple of Jesus Christ; and in the tabernacle Moses built and in the temple Solomon built, there was also literally a candlestick or candelabra with its seven lamps, in the holy place.
But in the most holy place, we have the ark of the covenant, we have the mercy seat on the ark of the covenant, we have the tables of the Law, we have the testimony there that God gave the prophet Moses, we have Aaron’s rod that budded, the hidden manna is there as well (in the golden pot); and on the ark of the covenant, we have the mercy seat, where the two cherubim of gold are found (the mercy seat is also made of gold); and there, between the two cherubim of gold, we have God’s presence in the Pillar of Fire, there we have the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob manifested in the temple of God.
We find that for the Last Day, Jesus Christ, who has been building a New Temple…; for He said, referring to that earthly temple there was in the days of Jesus (which Herod built), He said there would not be left one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down5.
And now, the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ said on page 11 and page 12 of the book of The Seals6:
“And, now, David was not permitted to build the temple. He could not do it. But He said, ‘I’ll raise up from your seed, and he will build the temple, and that temple will be an everlasting temple. And upon your son, the son of David, will be an everlasting kingdom; he’ll control.’ Solomon, David’s son in the natural, from his natural strength, built a house unto the Lord, a temple. But when the real Seed of David come, the Son of David, He told them there would come a time that there wouldn’t be one stone left upon the other, of that temple. But He tried to point them to another temple. John, the revelator, over in the Book of Revelation, he saw this Tabernacle. Revelation 21, he saw, ‘The new Temple coming, descending down from Heaven, adorned as a bride was adorned for her husband. And a Voice out of the Temple, said:
‘And I heard a great voice out of heaven saying, Behold, the tabernacle of God is with men, and he will dwell with them, and they shall be his people, and God himself shall be with them, and be their God.
And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away.’
Revelation 21:3-4
Then the true Son of David, as we’re going to see in this lessons coming on in this week, will then come to His Temple, the Temple of God, the real Tabernacle which He has gone away to construct now. For, He said, in John 14, ‘In My Father’s House are many mansions, and I will go…’ What did He mean by that? It’s already foreordained. ‘And I’ll go to prepare a Place for you, and will return back, to receive you unto Myself.’ And, of course, we know that’ll be in the great Age to come. And the true Seed of David will take the Throne, which is Jesus Christ, and there will reign over the Church, as His Bride, in the House with Him, and over the twelve tribes of Israel, throughout all Eternity.
And these little places; as David, could not build the true Tabernacle of God, because he wasn’t prepared to do it. There was nothing he could do. He was a mortal, and had shed blood. So is it today, to us, we are not prepared to build the true Tabernacle of God. There’s only One can do that, and It’s being in Its construction now.”
And now, Jesus Christ, according to the Word of God, has been building a Temple, a Tabernacle for God, Saint Paul the apostle said in Ephesians, chapter 2, verse 19 to 22, he says:
“Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, but fellowcitizens with the saints, and of the household of God;
And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner stone;
In whom all the building fitly framed together groweth unto an holy temple in the Lord:
In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation of God through the Spirit.”
There we can see the New Temple, and Christ is the one who is building It.
In Hebrews, chapter 3, verse 5 and on, it says:
“And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be spoken after;
But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the hope firm unto the end.”
Now notice here which is the House of God, the Temple of God: it is us, the Mystical Body of Christ that is being built as a spiritual Temple from age to age; a Temple made out of living stones, as Saint Peter the apostle says in chapter 1, where he speaks to us about us being living stones; he says, let’s see… First Peter, chapter 2, verses 4 and on, says:
“To whom coming, as unto a living stone (because He is the Cornerstone, the Stone that the builders rejected), disallowed indeed of men, but chosen of God, and precious,
Ye also, as lively stones…”
In other words, what He is, we are too. He is the living Stone that the builders rejected, He is the beginning of the Creation of God; and we are also living stones and we are the continuation of the Creation of God, of that New Creation, which began with the Lord Jesus Christ.
And now, He is the Cornerstone, the Capstone of all those living stones that form the Temple of the Lord.
“…But chosen of God, and precious,
Ye also, as lively stones, are built up a spiritual house…”
How are we built up? As a spiritual House; both as individuals and as a Mystical Body of believers.
As part of that Temple, which is the Church of Jesus Christ, we are stones of that spiritual Temple; and who is the Capstone of that Temple? Our Lord Jesus Christ.
Now, the Hebrew people rejected the Capstone, that was coming to crown the Hebrew people as a nation; and if they had received Him, the Hebrew people would have become the chief nation and from that nation, Christ would rule all the other nations; that nation would have been the chief nation of all nations. But Christ would not have a Kingdom until after He carried out His Work of Redemption, in order to have immortal people in His Kingdom with Him, in the image and likeness of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ.
And now, notice how by rejecting Christ, the Cornerstone, they cast it aside, they sent it to the gentiles; and now, even though they crucified Him among the Hebrew nation, it was the gentiles, the Roman empire; in other words, the gentile kingdom in its fourth stage, in the legs of iron, was the one that carried out the crucifixion of Christ; therefore, God will hold accountable that fourth stage of the gentile empire, which is the stage of the legs of iron and the feet of iron and clay; and the stage of the feet of iron and clay is when God will hold it accountable and avenge the blood of all His martyrs and the Blood of Jesus Christ, the faithful and true Martyr.
Remember that when God spoke to Abraham, He told him that in the fourth generation God would bring the Hebrew people back to their land7. And now, notice, the fourth generation, the fourth stage of the gentile empire, is when the sons and daughters of God will return to eternal life with eternal bodies, and the Hebrew people will go back to being a nation in which God is manifested as King, ruling over the Hebrew people and over all nations.
And now, at the Last Day, the Stone cut out without hands (which was rejected two thousand years ago) comes to crown His spiritual Temple, His Church, and He comes as the Crown Stone at the Last Day, in the stage of the Age of the Cornerstone. That is where Christ comes as the Stone cut out without hands.
He was manifested from age to age through each angel messenger, calling and gathering together living stones for His Temple; and at this Last Day, Christ Himself comes manifested in the Age of the Cornerstone, in His Angel Messenger, calling and gathering together living stones to form the Most Holy Place of His spiritual Temple. To form what? The Age of the Cornerstone out of living stones.
And now, we find three very important angles here; and now, Christ is the Cornerstone.
And now, Christ comes with His Angels; and here we have one angle: Jesus, another angle: Moses, and another angle: Elijah.
It is because He comes with His Angels. Jesus Christ, the Eagle, who comes for His elect, comes on His two wings, which are Moses and Elijah. He comes as the Sun of Righteousness, for “unto those that fear my Name shall the Sun of Righteousness arise, with healing in His wings8”; His wings are the ministries of Moses and Elijah.
That is why you find that when Jesus spoke about the Coming of the Son of Man, He said He would come with His Angels; notice that it follows one line of thought from Genesis to Revelation. We see that Christ also said:
“And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then (they) shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.”
And what else does He say? Let’s see what He says:
“And he shall send his angels…”
Why will He send His Angels? Because they come with Him.
“And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.”
(Matthew, chapter 24 and verses 30 to 31).
And now, here in this cloud taken on February 28, 1963, in this picture taken by photographers who saw this sign in heaven, about 26 miles high, this cloud the size of 30 miles wide [41.8 km by 48.3 km]…, at a height where clouds could not form because there is no moisture and where planes cannot fly and form a cloud either; and if there is no moisture, no cloud can be formed.
And now, this cloud has a mystery. Science has tried to discover its mystery, but the mystery of this cloud is that it was formed by angels of God, which are the seven angel messengers of the seven ages of the gentile Church and another Angel who was different from the rest, which is Christ, which is the Son of Man.
And now, that Angel who was different from the rest is this one right here</em>; and by turning the picture to the right, we can see that this Angel who is flying forms the white hair of the Lord; and here are the rest of the angels, which form the beard of the Lord.
And now, what does the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ say about that Angel who is different from the rest? Page 469 of the book of The Seals, says the following, and we are going to read it9:
“And did you notice? ‘That one Angel,’ I said, ‘in there, was a strange Angel.’ He looked more to me than any of the rest of Them. You remember that? [Congregation says, ‘Amen.’—Ed.] They were in a constellation; three on a side, and one on top. And the one right next to me here, counting from the left to the right, would have been the seventh Angel. He was brighter, meant more to me than the rest of Them. You remember? I said, ‘He had His chest out, like that, and was flying eastward.’”
Why? Because the Angel has His sight set on the East, because He is the Angel of the Covenant, the Messenger to Israel. It says:
“I said, ‘It picked me up; lifted me up.’ You remember that? [‘Amen.’]
Here It is, the one with the Seventh Seal, the thing that I’ve wondered all my life. Amen! Them other Seals meant a lot to me, of course, but, oh, you don’t know what This has meant.”
Who is the one with the Seventh Seal? The Angel who was different from the rest; that is the Angel who forms the white hair of the Lord.
And just as the other angels had to come in human flesh… They are all here in their theophanic bodies, but they had to also come in their bodies of flesh; those theophanies were in bodies of flesh and they were the seven angel messengers of the seven gentile Church ages. They are ministering angels to the heirs of salvation, as Saint Paul tells us in his letter to the Hebrews, chapter 1, verse 14; he says:
“Are they not all ministering spirits, sent forth to minister for them who shall be heirs of salvation?”
Those are the angel messengers He sends.
And now, in order for this Angel Messenger to have His ministry, the ministry of the Seventh Seal, the ministry of the Second Coming of Christ with His Angels, in order to manifest the ministries of Moses, Elijah and Jesus, He has to come in human flesh; and that is the mystery of the Seventh Seal: the Coming of this Angel (which is Christ), His Coming in human flesh at the Last Day.
That is the greatest mystery in the entire Bible; it is the mystery that not even the theologians in the different ages of the gentile Church have been able to decipher; and that is the mystery which will be revealed to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ at the Last Day, and that is the mystery that will give God’s elect the faith to be raptured.
In the message The Seals, page 128 (of The Seals), says10:
“Now, Seven Thunders, of Revelation, may He show the Bride how to prepare for the great translation faith!”
In other words, the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ needs to hear those Seven Thunders speaking and revealing to her the mystery of His Coming, of the Coming of Christ.
And now, on page 466 of The Seals, it says11:
“What happens, is that…Those Seven Thunders that he heard thunder (meaning, that John heard) and was forbidden to write; that’s what the mystery is, laying behind those Seven consecutive Thunders rolling out.”
What is the mystery? The Seventh Seal, the mystery of the Second Coming of Christ.
“Now, why? Let us prove it. Why? It is the secret that no one knows about. John was forbidding to write about It, even—even write a symbol about It. Why? This is why there was no active in—activity in Heaven: it might give away the secret.”
And that secret could not be revealed in the time of John the Baptist. Why? We will see why at some point as we read. It says:
“…it might give away the secret. Do you see it now? [Congregation says, ‘Amen.’ –Ed.] If It’s so great, It must be included, because It’s got to happen.”
What has to happen? The fulfillment of the Seventh Seal has to happen and the Seven Thunders (which is the Voice of Christ as Lion) have to speak to His Church and reveal that mystery to her; and that will be the Seven Thunders speaking to His Church, the Voice of Christ speaking to His Church.
“…but when the Seven Thunders… Now notice. When the seven Angels come forth to sound their Trumpets, there was one thunder. [Brother Branham knocks on the pulpit once—Ed.] When Israel was gathered, there was a trumpet. ‘When time shall be no more,’ the last trumpet, one thunder. But here is Seven straight Thunders, right in a row: one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, that perfect number. Seven Thunders in a row, uttered, not…making just—just one, two, three, four, five, six, seven, straight. [Brother Branham knocked on the pulpit seven times—Ed.] Then, Heavens couldn’t write That. Heavens can’t know about It, nothing else, because there’s nothing to go on. It was a relaxing time. It was so great, till, It was kept secret from the Angels. Now, why? (Here he is going to give us the reason why that mystery was not made known in that time of John the apostle). If Satan should get a hold of It, he might do great damage. There is one thing he don’t know. Now, he can interpret anything he wants to, and impersonate any kind of a gift, (I hope you’re learning), but he can’t know This. It’s not even written in the Word. It’s a total secret. The Angels, everything, shut up. If they made one move, it might give something away, so they just shut up, quit harping. Everything stopped.
Seven, God’s perfect number. Seven, [Brother Branham knocks on the pulpit seven times—Ed.] just right down the row. Seven Thunders uttered straight together, like they were spelling out something.”
Seven is God’s perfect number, as brother Branham has told us.
“Notice, at that time, John started to write It. He said, ‘Don’t write It.’ Jesus never spoke of It. John couldn’t write It. Angels know nothing about It. What is It? It’s the thing that, Jesus said, ‘Even the Angels of Heaven didn’t know’ nothing about It. See? See? He didn’t know It, Himself. Said, ‘Only God’ would know It.”
And how can it be possible that Jesus did not know the mystery of the Second Coming of Christ? He… We also find in another place that there was something which… Let’s see… Page 4 and 5 of the book of The Ages (let’s see), regarding the restoration of the Hebrew people, when they asked him; it says12:
“Now I said that this Book of Revelation is the revelation of Jesus and what He is doing in the churches for those seven ages. It is a revelation because the disciples, themselves, didn’t know these recorded truths. It had not been previously revealed to them. You remember that (when) they came to Jesus in the Book of Acts and asked Him, ‘Are You at this time going to restore the kingdom to Israel?’ And He said, ‘It is not for you to know the times or the seasons.’ Those men were still thinking of Jesus having an earthly kingdom. But it was a spiritual kingdom that He was going to build. Even He could not tell them about His place in it, for the Father had not revealed it unto Him (and how can that be?). But now after His death and resurrection, and at this particular time in His mediatorial ministry, He is able to set forth here in this revelation of Himself to John what His glory and presence in the church would mean and do.
In this revelation He tells us what the end of the devil is. He tells how He is going to deal with the devil and cast him into the lake of fire. He reveals the end of the wicked ones who follow Satan. And Satan hates that.”
Now, how can it be possible that Jesus did not know about His place…? It says there: “Even He could not tell them about His place in it, for the Father had not revealed it unto Him.” And regarding this mystery of the Coming of the Son of Man, Jesus Christ said that the angels did not know, even the Son did not know. And how can that be? That is the most simple thing you can imagine.
It is because to know something means to have it in one’s conscious, and those mysteries were in His unconscious, meaning, in God, and they had not come out to His conscious yet; therefore, Jesus was not conscious of these things.
See how simple it is? But they were in Him, in His subconscious, which is God; they had still not come out of God, out of God’s mind, in other words, out of the mind of Jesus’ subconscious, which is God.
And now, we find that the mystery of the Seventh Seal, meaning, the details: How will It be? Where will It be? Who will It be? (All those things) How will the Angel of the Covenant be on Earth at the Last Day?… And it says He has what kind of Name? A New Name; all those things.
Notice, Jesus came to mention certain things, but to say that the New Name is such, He could not say that, He did not know It; to say: “It will be in such place,” He could not specify the place either; because those things were in God’s mind and they had not been passed to Jesus’ conscious part, nor had they passed to the conscious part of any of God’s prophets, not even of the angels, until the Seventh Seal is opened in Heaven.
Remember that the Seventh Seal is opened in Heaven first, and they know that mystery in Heaven, but they remain silent; but the fulfillment of that mystery happens (where?) here on Earth. It is the Coming of the Mighty Angel who descends from Heaven, it is the Coming of the Lord, the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
And now, let’s see what it says here next… Remember that this Seventh Seal, and the opening of this Seventh Seal and the things the Seventh Seal will do, are the things promised for the Third Pull. The Third Pull is the stage of the Word.
And now, for the Last Day (let’s read just a little bit, not too much), it says [The Seals, page 467]13:
“Remember, Satan will try to impersonate. He’ll try to impersonate everything that the Church will do. He’s tried to do it. We notice it, through the antichrist. But this is one thing he cannot impersonate. There’ll be no mimics to this, see, ’cause he don’t know It. There’s no way for him to know It. It’s the Third Pull. He just knows nothing about It. See? He doesn’t understand It. But there’s a secret lays beneath That! [Brother Branham knocks on the pulpit once—Ed.] Glory to God in the Highest!”
When was “Glory to God in the Highest!” said? In the First Coming of Christ.
“I can never think the same, the rest of my life, when I seen. Now, I don’t know what… I know the next step there, but I don’t know what, how to interpret that. It won’t be long.
I’ve got wrote down here, when it happened, if you can see here (have them look in his notebook, because there is something he had written there that he was not able to say). It says, ‘Stop. Go no further than this right here.’ (The Spirit of God commands him to stop there). ‘I’m not prone to be a fanatic. I’m just telling the Truth. But you remember the little shoe, that I always tried to explain how that the soul laid next to so-and-so, and the inner conscience, and all that kind of stuff? Which, it only made a big bunch of impersonations start after it. How they have to take up the hand, and hold the people, and have vibration? Everybody had a vibration in their hands. But you remember, when He took me up there, and said, ‘This is that Third Pull, and no one will know It.’ You remember that? [Congregation says, ‘Amen.’—Ed.] Visions never fail. They are perfectly the Truth.”
And now, let’s turn to page 474, where it says14:
“Now notice. So help me, by God, I tell the Truth, that These are spiritually discerned to me, discerned by the Holy Spirit. And, by every one of Them, has identified Its place in the Bible. Now, what this great secret is that lays beneath this Seal, I do not know. I don’t know it. I couldn’t make it out. I couldn’t tell It, just what It—just what It said, but I know that It was them Seven Thunders uttering themselves right close together, just banging seven different times. And It unfolded into something else that I seen. Then, when I seen That, I looked for the interpretation. It flew across there, and I couldn’t make It out.”
And further down, he continues:
“Be prepared, for you don’t know what time something can happen.”
And further down, it says:
“I don’t know who is going to…what’s going to take place. I do not know. I just know that those Seven Thunders holds that mystery. The Heavens was quiet. Everybody understand? [Congregation says, ‘Amen.’—Ed.]
It may be time, it may be the hour now, that this great person that we’re expecting to rise on the scene may arise on the scene. Maybe this ministry, that I have tried to take people back to the Word, has laid a foundation; and if it has, I’ll be leaving you, for good. There won’t be two of us here the same time. See? If it is, he’ll increase; I’ll decrease.”
As it happened with John the Baptist and Jesus. When they told John: “Look, the one you bore witness of now baptizes more people than you and more people follow Him than you,” John said: “He must increase, but I must decrease.15” And that is the same thing the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ is saying about himself and that other person who will come after him, of whom he says: “I don’t know who it’s going to be.”
“I don’t know. But I have been privileged, by God, to look and see what It was, see, see unfold to that much.”
And further on, it says:
“…If we never meet again on this earth, we’re going to meet yonder at the—at the judgment seat of Christ. And you’ll find out, that, in that room, the revelation coming from God, just like all the rest of them has, that Them… One of the mystery of that Seal, the reason It wasn’t revealed, It was Seven Thunders that uttered Their voices. And there It is, perfectly. Because, nothing knows anything about It. It wasn’t even written. So, we’re at the end time.”
And now, when will that mystery be revealed, opened? Let’s see. On page 482 and 483 of the book of The Seals, it says16:
“Now, we have, in the completion here now, by the grace of God, all the mysteries of the six Seals that’s been sealed up, and we understand and know here that the Seventh Seal is not to be known to the public.
Now, His Coming, at the hour of His Coming, when the destruction of the earth, you know. He said there, ‘What will be the sign of the coming of the end of the world?’ In Matthew 24, there where they asked Him that question. He went down to that. He told about Israel being gathered as a nation, in the 31st verse, of Matthew 24:31. But then He started off on parables, see. Then you see the…
‘Learn a parable of the fig tree. When you see it putting forth its buds, why, you know spring is nigh.
And then when you see this coming to pass, then know the time is nigh.’
Matthew 24:32-33
See, Israel gathering in its own homeland. But, you notice, He omitted the revelation of this Seventh Seal. And here, when the Seventh Seal, when He opened It, He also omitted It again, see. So we see that It is a complete mystery, therefore the hour is not yet for the mystery to be known. Therefore, we’re this far, and the rest of It will be known right around about the time that Jesus appears on earth again, for His Bride.”
And now, when will the mystery of the Seventh Seal be made known? When will this mystery of the Seventh Seal be opened to the Church of Jesus Christ? When will the seven thunders of Revelation, chapter 10, verse 1 to 11, be speaking here on Earth to the Church of Jesus Christ and revealing to her this mystery of the Seventh Seal, this mystery of the Second Coming of Christ? He says it will be:
“…And the rest of It will be known right around about the time that Jesus appears on earth again…”
And now, let’s see how the forerunner of His Second Coming says that Jesus will appear on Earth again. Page 256 of the book of The Seals in Spanish, says17:
“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.”
When Jesus Christ appears on Earth again —which will be the white horse Rider of Revelation 19 coming and which is the Word incarnate in a man—, it is there and from there where Christ will be crying as when a lion roars and the voices of the Seven Thunders will be speaking to us and revealing to us the mystery of the Seventh Seal, the mystery of His Coming: of His Coming in human flesh, the Coming of the Word in human flesh, making known to us the mystery of His Coming.
Because that is the mystery of the Seventh Seal: the mystery of the Coming of the Word incarnate in a man. That is the Coming of the Angel who was different from the rest, in human flesh at the Last Day; and that Angel will be the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Angel Messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone and the Angel Messenger of the Dispensation of the Kingdom, where the Angel who was different from the rest will be (who is Christ, the Angel of the Covenant) coming in human flesh at the Last Day; He is coming as the white horse Rider of Revelation 19.
Every person who expects to know the mystery of the Seventh Seal must know that the Seventh Seal will be opened in the Coming of Christ, in the Coming of Jesus. It says… What did brother Branham say? He says:
“And the rest of It will be known right around about the time that Jesus appears on earth again, for His Bride.”
Remember that He comes as the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, verse 11 to 21; and He also comes as the Mighty Angel who descends from Heaven, which is the Angel of the Covenant, the Messenger to Israel; but He comes for His Bride, for His gentile Church, because the time has come for His Church to be raptured. He comes for His Church, that is why it says: “…Right around about the time that Jesus appears on earth again (for what?) for His Bride.”
And how will He appear on Earth? He will come on Earth in human flesh, because He will be the Word, the Word incarnate in a man of this end time.
Wasn’t the First Coming of Christ also that? The Word, the Word incarnate in a man: “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And that Word was made flesh and dwelt among us.” And at the Last Day, the Word, Christ, the Angel of the Covenant will be made flesh again, and He will be speaking to us and revealing to us His Coming at this end time, His Coming as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords in His Reclaiming Work.
He will be revealing to us the mystery of His Coming at this end time. That is the Coming of the Angel who was different from the rest coming in a veil of flesh at the Last Day; and that veil of flesh will be the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ, the messenger of the Age of the Cornerstone and the prophet messenger of the Dispensation of the Kingdom.
It is the first time Jesus Christ sends a dispensational prophet to His Church; and just as He came in each messenger of each age, now He is coming in a dispensational prophet messenger sent by Jesus Christ, called the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ.
On page 277, and also on page 134 of the book of The Seals, notice, it says… Page 134 of The Seals says18:
“Glory! Notice! And when this Holy Spirit that we have becomes incarnate to us, the One that’s in our midst now in the form of the Holy Ghost, becomes incarnate to us, in the Person of Jesus Christ, we’ll crown Him King of kings and Lord of lords.”
And now, on page 277 it says (of The Seals)19:
“…May the Holy Spirit come down now, the white-horse Rider.”
Who is the true white horse Rider? The Holy Spirit, the Word, the Angel of the Covenant. And now, notice, it says:
“…Come down now, the white-horse Rider, while His Spirit, Spirit of Christ, in the face of antichrist, and call His Own.”
And now, at the Last Day, what will He be doing? Calling and gathering together all His elect through His manifestation in human flesh.
And now, let’s see, on page 131 of the book of The Seals, it says20:
“And, Jesus, His Name on earth was ‘Redeemer,’ Jesus. When He was on earth, He was the Redeemer, that’s true. But when He conquered death and hell, and overcome them, and ascended on High, He received a new Name. That’s the reason you holler the way they do, and they don’t get nothing. It’ll be revealed in the Thunders. (Why? Because the Thunders reveal His Coming, and in His Coming, He comes with a New Name).
Uh-huh. See? Notice the mysteries. He is coming, riding… There’s got to be Something to change this Church. You know that. There’s got to be Something. Notice, ‘No man knowed, but Himself.’ Now, notice, ‘No man knowed, but Hisself.’
‘And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name was called The Word of God.’
Oh, my! Notice!
‘And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
And out of his mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he tread the winepress of the fierceness and the wrath of Almighty God.
And he had on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.’
Revelation 19:13-16
There comes the Messiah. There He is.”
He is the one the Church of Jesus Christ has been waiting for for approximately two thousand years, according to the biblical prophecies, and the Hebrew people have also been waiting for Him; and that is why He comes to His gentile Church and then to the Hebrew people.
Now, notice how the Holy Spirit, the Word comes: It comes veiled in human flesh; it is the Word, the Word incarnate in a man at the Last Day.
That is the Seventh Seal being fulfilled on Earth; because the Angel who was different from the rest has the Seventh Seal; and if He comes incarnate in His Angel Messenger, then the Seventh Seal is manifested on Earth at the Last Day, in the Coming of the Angel who was different from the rest, in human flesh in His Angel Messenger.
And the Angel who was different from the rest is the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit; He is the Word; and He comes at the Last Day, in His Angel Messenger, manifested in human flesh, and He comes crying as when a lion roars; and the Seven Thunders come uttering their voices in and to His gentile Church and revealing to her the mystery of His Coming to the Age of the Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom; and He shows them the mystery of His Coming, and He calls them and gathers them in the Age of the Cornerstone, and prepares us to be changed and raptured at this end time; because He comes to seek His Bride, His Church; and that is how He comes manifested in human flesh and gives us the faith, the revelation of His Coming, the faith to be changed and raptured at this end time.
All of that takes place in the Most Holy Place of the spiritual Temple which Christ is building; and the Capstone of that Temple is Christ in His Coming, that is the Cornerstone coming at the Last Day.
Just as He came among the Hebrew people in His First Coming, now He comes to His Church in His Second Coming as the Stone that crowns His spiritual Temple; and then, He will manifest Himself to the Hebrew people and He will also be the Cornerstone of the Hebrew people, because He will be the King of kings and Lord of lords.
No one will have a higher position than His, there in the midst of the Hebrew people, and no one among His gentile Church either; because He is the Cornerstone, the Capstone that crowns His Mystical Body of believers, His Church, His spiritual Temple; just like in the temple or tabernacle Moses built, no one was more important than the one who was above the ark of the covenant, between the two cherubim of gold, above the mercy seat; and no one is more important and greater than God in the Temple which is in Heaven.
And now, we have seen that the Seventh Seal has the highest position in His spiritual Temple: It is Christ in His Second Coming; Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord at the Last Day coming in a veil of flesh of the end time.
Just as Moses comes and Elijah comes, the ministries of Moses for the second time and the ministry of Elijah for the fifth time. How will it come? Each one of those ministries will come in human flesh in a man of this end time.
Let’s see the ministry of Elijah and let’s see how it is promised to come at this end time.
And why does Reverend William Marrion Branham speak about Moses and speak about Elijah? Because he is the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, he is the forerunner of the Coming of the Son of Man; and the Son of Man comes with Moses and He comes with Elijah, He comes with His Angels; and if he is forerunning the Coming of the Son of Man with His Angels, then he must speak about the Coming of the Angel of the Covenant with His Angels, in other words, with the ministries of Moses, Elijah and Jesus.
And now, notice how Elijah, the fifth Elijah will come, who will preach to the Hebrew people. On page 399 of the book of The Seals in Spanish, question number 11, the question says the following21:
“Is the Elijah, who comes to preach to the Jews, the real man who lived on earth, in the days of Ahab, or will he be the spirit of Elijah in some other man?
(And the answer was):
I’m inclined to believe that it will be anointed men, of their spirit. Because, see, he says, when Elijah was caught up, and Elisha encountered the sons of the prophets, they said: ‘Does not… on Elisha? Does not the spirit of Elijah rest on Elisha?’ See, ‘the spirit of Elijah.’ And he done just like Elijah did.”
Now, notice the coming of Elijah, the fifth Elijah who will preach to the Hebrew people (who is one of the Two Olive Trees), how will he come? It will be the ministry of Elijah in a man of this time.
And the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, which is the Coming of Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, the Angel who was different from the rest, how will it be? It will be the Coming of Jesus Christ, of the Holy Spirit, of the Angel of the Covenant, the Coming of the Word, the Coming of the Word incarnate in a man, in a man of this end time.
And the coming of Moses will also be this way; because when God promises to send a prophet He sent in the past (whether from a past age or dispensation), when He sends him again, what He sends is that ministry in a man of the time in which God fulfills that promise.
And such is the Coming of the Son of Man with His Angels: they are the ministries of Moses for the second time, Elijah for the fifth time and Jesus for the second time, those ministries coming in Holy Spirit, in the Angel of the Covenant who will come manifested in human flesh in a man of this end time; and through that man, the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord (which is Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit), will be manifesting these three great ministries: the ministry of Moses, Jesus and Elijah.
That is the mystery of the Seventh Seal. The fulfillment of that mystery is the Coming of the Angel of the Covenant, of the Angel of the Lord, coming in human flesh at the Last Day; the Coming of the Angel who was different from the rest, which is the Angel of the Covenant, the Word, coming in human flesh at the Last Day.
Now, that veil of flesh, which is the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ and prophet messenger of the Dispensation of the Kingdom and of the Age of the Cornerstone, that Angel is not the Lord Jesus Christ, he is not the prophet Elijah and he is not the prophet Moses either; but the ministries of Moses, Elijah and Jesus will be in him, because the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, the Angel who was different from the rest, the Holy Spirit will be in him, manifested; and He is the only one who has ministries.
That is why the Angel of Revelation, chapter 7, verse 2 and on (of Revelation), which is the Angel Messenger who comes to call and gather together 144.000 Hebrews and seal them in their foreheads, comes with the Seal of the living God; and the Seal of the living God is the Holy Spirit; He comes with the Holy Spirit manifested in him. The Word, the Word incarnate comes in him; and that is why one Angel alone calls 144.000 Hebrews.
And in Revelation, chapter 11, two appear: the Two Witnesses, the Two Anointed Ones. It is because the Two Anointed Ones, the Two Witnesses, the Two Olive Trees (or the Two Olives) and the Two Candlesticks are the ministries of Moses and Elijah manifested in a man of this end time; and the ministry of Jesus is also manifested in that man.
Therefore, Elijah can speak to the Hebrew people, and he will be speaking to them through human flesh, through that man; then, another day, Moses can speak to the Hebrew people through human flesh, and when they look at him, it is the same man, but the ministry is the ministry of Moses; and then, another day, after the Hebrew people have been waiting for the Coming of the Messiah…; because first, they see Elijah and they see Moses (they see the Two Olive Trees there), and they are waiting for the Messiah; and then, when they see the Messiah, they see Christ in His Coming, and they look closely, they see that it is the same veil of flesh.
It is because Jesus, the ministry of Jesus, the ministry of Elijah and the ministry of Moses will be in that same veil of flesh; because in that same veil of flesh, Jesus Christ, the Holy Spirit, the Angel of the Covenant will be manifested, and He is the only one who has ministries. And He can operate one ministry in a person, He can operate two ministries in a person, or He can operate three ministries in a person, or He can operate all the ministries He wants to operate, because He has all those ministries. When Jesus came, all the ministries where in Him.
And in His Second Coming, all the ministries will be there, but the promise is that He will be operating the ministry of Elijah, Moses and Jesus; but remember that the Scripture also says they will seek David22</a>; and when they seek David their king and find Him, well, they will find the same one who was as Elijah, as Moses and as Jesus, and now, they find Him as David. It is the same Angel of the Covenant or Angel of the Lord who will be manifested at the Last Day, in human flesh, coming to His gentile Church and then to the Hebrew people.
Look at how simple this mystery of the Seventh Seal is; and that is why the position of the Seventh Seal in the Temple of God is the position at and of the Ark of the Covenant, with everything there is in the Ark of the Covenant; because Christ is the Ark of the Covenant, our Ark of the Covenant, both in His First Coming as well as in His Second Coming, and everything that is there belongs to Him; and in His Second Coming, He will be in His Temple and He will be the Ark of the Covenant of His Temple.
Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, notice, is the Angel of the Covenant, He is the Ark of the Covenant; He is the Everything in His Temple; because the most important part of the Temple is the Most Holy Place; and the most important thing in the Most Holy Place is the Ark of the Covenant; and in the Ark of the Covenant, on the Ark of the Covenant: it is the Mercy Seat; and in the Mercy Seat: it is the Pillar of Fire, the Shekinah, which is God.
Notice where God was: He was above the mercy seat, between the two cherubim of gold, just as He will be in the Most Holy Place of the spiritual Temple at the Last Day, above the Ark of the Covenant, above the Mercy Seat, between the Two Cherubim, which represent Moses and Elijah.
Between the two ministries of Moses and Elijah, will be the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord, Jesus Christ our Savior in His Coming. Where? In His Temple, which is His Church.
We have seen the position of the Seventh Seal in His Temple, for all of God’s elect to be receiving the blessings directly from the Throne of Jesus Christ in His spiritual Temple. And:
“To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne.23”
Wherever Christ is, the overcomer will be there. Therefore, wherever Christ is in His Temple, His overcomer will be there too; and wherever Christ is among the Hebrew people, the overcomer will be there too.
And the Throne of Christ, His earthly Throne, of His earthly Kingdom, which is the Kingdom of the Son of David among the Hebrew people, that glorious Millennial Kingdom…
Remember that His Throne is the Throne of David, which Christ inherits as the Son of David; and wherever Christ is seated, He says: “To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in his throne (that is, on the Throne of the Temple which is in Heaven).”
And now, notice the great blessing there is for the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ at this end time and for the Hebrew people.
And now, the spiritual Israel is the Church of Jesus Christ and the earthly Israel is the Hebrew people.
Among the Hebrew people will be the earthly Throne of Christ, on which He will sit, and the overcomer will sit there with Him; and in the heavenly Israel, we have the Most Holy Place, which is the place in the spiritual Israel where the Throne of Jesus Christ will be.
During the seven gentile Church ages, Christ has had seven thrones of mercy, which are the seven angel messengers of the seven gentile Church ages; and through the manifestation of Christ from the Throne that is in Heaven to His Church here on Earth, through those human thrones (the seven angel messengers) He revealed, He manifested mercy from the Throne of the Father here among His Church; and through those messengers came the revelation of Jesus Christ of what was happening there in Heaven, in the Throne of God, in the Place of Intercession, where Christ was doing the Work of Intercession.
And at the Last Day He will also have a human throne. In that human throne, at the beginning, He will still be making Intercession in the Throne of God in Heaven, and therefore, from that Throne, He will be extending mercy upon human beings for the last time.
The ministries of Moses and Elijah will be in that throne, and through that throne, He will tell us about the mercy of God and that He has not yet left the Throne of Intercession in Heaven; therefore, that messenger will be preaching, and through that messenger, Christ will be speaking to humanity and telling them that there is still a short time of mercy for the human beings.
Through that same throne, He will be warning them that at any moment, the time of mercy will end; because Christ will come out of the Throne in Heaven and then, there will be no Blood on the Throne which is in Heaven, and therefore, God will look upon the human race and see them with their sins, since nothing will be able to take away sin; because the Blood of Christ will no longer be there, Christ will not be making intercession there in Heaven; thus, the divine judgment will come upon the human race.
It has not come upon the human race in all fullness because Christ has been in Heaven, on the Throne of Intercession; but when He comes out, there will no longer be an opportunity for the human race; but the very last elect of God will have already come in, because he will have received God’s mercy through the ministry of Christ through His Angel Messenger, who will be on Earth and through whom Christ will be calling and gathering together His elect, and making intercession for all those elect of the Last Day, who will be called, gathered together, and prepared in the Age of the Cornerstone, obtaining the rapturing faith, which is the faith to be changed, the faith, the revelation of the Coming of Christ, of the Angel of the Covenant coming in human flesh.
That is the revelation that the Church of Jesus Christ will have at the Last Day to be changed and raptured and go with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb; because He comes for His Church.
Remember, the wise virgins were awake and had oil in their lamps, and when the bridegroom came, they went in with him to the marriage, and the door was shut; then the other virgins also came, but the door was already shut. That is the door of mercy.
When Christ comes out of the Throne of Intercession in Heaven, the door of mercy —to obtain mercy— will be shut; and he that is filthy no longer has the opportunity to be cleansed by the Blood of Christ, he that is filthy will continue to be filthy; he that is cleansed by the Blood of Christ will be clean, he that is righteous will be righteous still; and so on24. People will no longer have an opportunity.
Notice, on pages 369 of the book of The Seals in Spanish, it says25:
“Notice the last verse of the Sixth Seal, opened. Those who had laughed at the preaching of the Word, of the vindicated Word of the living God; when them prophets had stood there and performed miracles, closed the sun, and everything else, and all down through the age. See, ‘They cried for the rocks and the mountains to hide them,’ see, to hide them from the Word that they had laughed at,’ cause they seen Him come. Saying…”
[Audio CUT]
[Saying: “Hide us from the wrath of the Lamb.’ He is the Word. See? They had laughed at the Word. And here the Word was, incarnate. And they had made fun of It; laughed at them, made fun of them. And the incarnate Word had dropped forth! Why didn’t they repent?They couldn’t. It was…”]
“…It was too far, then. So, they knowed that, the punishment. They hear It. They had sat in meetings like this and knowed about It. And they knowed that the things of those prophets, had predicted, was looking them right in the face, the thing that they had rejected. They had spurned mercy for the last time.”
Where will God’s mercy for the last time be manifested? It will be manifested wherever the ministries of Moses and Elijah and Jesus will be manifested at the Last Day. And where will they be? In the Coming of the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, in the Coming of the Word, the Word incarnate in a man.
“And when you spurn mercy, there is nothing left but judgment. When you spurn mercy; just think of it.
And there they was. They had no place to go, no retreat. And the Bible said here, ‘They called for the… Cried to the rocks and the mountains, to, ‘Fall on us, and hide us from the—from the face of the… and the wrath of the Lamb.’ They tried to repent, but the Lamb had come to claim His Own, see. And they cried to the rocks and the mountain. Prayed, but the prayers were too late.”
Now we can see where God’s mercy is manifested for the last time.
It was manifested under the ministries of the seven angel messengers, and at the Last Day, it is manifested in the Angel Messenger of Jesus Christ while Jesus Christ is on the Throne of Mercy, on the Throne of Intercession in Heaven; but when He comes out, there will be no more mercy; and from that point on, the Message that will be preached to humanity will be openly making known those divine judgments.
Even though before the divine judgment comes, all these things that are coming will be preached; they are preached by Christ through His Angel Messenger, because that is the Angel Messenger through whom Christ makes known to us all these things which must shortly be done: “Come up hither, and I will shew thee things which must be hereafter.” Where will we come up to? To the Age of the Cornerstone. “And he said unto me…” Revelation 22, verse 6:
“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.”
In other words, the things which must be after what has already happened during the seven ages of the gentile Church.
“…sent his angel to shew unto his servants the things which must shortly be done.”
And Revelation 22, verse 16, says:
“I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these things in the churches.”
He is the one sent by Christ, in whom Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, the Word, the Word incarnate at the Last Day, comes manifesting mercy first, while Christ is in the Throne of Intercession in Heaven; and after His days of intercession end, that Throne of Mercy will be a Throne of Judgment in the spiritual Temple of Jesus Christ, from there, the divine judgment that will be manifested on this planet Earth will be revealed.
Just like through a television you can watch what is being manifested in the studio where the acting is taking place or in a place where an event is being carried out that is being broadcasted by television; through television, on that channel where the program is being broadcasted, you can see everything that is happening there; and it is the same in the Temple of God: through God’s television. The prophets of God are always God’s televisions.
Through those televisions, they are the ones who see and broadcast to humanity the things they see transmitted from the Throne of God; from the Throne of God, through His prophets, His televisions, He transmits the things He wants humanity to see and know and hear on this Earth. And it will be the same through that Throne of Mercy, and also when it becomes a Throne of Judgment. Our brother Branham says that if he never sees them again, he says:
“I cannot tell you. I do not know. But, one of these days, if we never meet again on this earth, we’re going to meet yonder at the—at the judgment seat of Christ.”
And which is the Throne of Judgment of Jesus Christ? The Throne of Judgment of Jesus Christ will be a human throne through whom Jesus Christ will be transmitting, making known the divine judgment that will come upon the human race; and before that, this Throne will be a Throne of Mercy; just as each angel messenger, each messenger of each age has been a Throne of Mercy through whom Christ has revealed mercy to the human race.
And through that Angel Messenger, He will be revealing mercy to the human race and that is why He will be making known to them the entire Divine Program of the First Coming of Christ and His Work of Redemption in such a simple way that even children can understand it; and then, He will make known to them more openly what will happen to those who have rejected God’s mercy for the last time.
But God’s elect in the Age of the Cornerstone will receive God’s mercy for the last time and they will be changed, called, gathered together in the Age of the Cornerstone, and they will be changed at this Last Day and they will be translated to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
“THE POSITION OF THE SEVENTH SEAL IN THE TEMPLE OF GOD.”
You have already seen the Seventh Seal here on Earth in the spiritual Temple of Christ; and the position of the Seventh Seal in Heaven is the position of the Most Holy Place there. The position of the one seated in the Heaven is reflected, manifested by the position of the Seventh Seal in the spiritual Temple of Christ.
In other words, everything that will be manifested in the Temple which is in Heaven, in the Throne of God, will be reflected, revealed by the Seventh Seal in the Temple of God, in the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ, by the Seventh Seal which is the Coming of the Word incarnate in a man, in the midst of the Temple of Jesus Christ, among His Church, and He comes for His Church.
Now, we have seen “THE POSITION OF THE SEVENTH SEAL IN THE TEMPLE OF GOD.”
Do you want a little more? How many of you have The Seals, the book of The Seals? For those who do not have it, page 472 says the following26:
“Notice now, for the end-of-time Message, this Seal… (in other words, the Seventh Seal). After all, He—He has revealed all the six Seals, but He don’t say nothing about the Seventh. And the end-time Seal, when It starts, will be absolutely a total secret, according to the Bible…”
The Seventh Seal is the Second Coming of Christ. When the First Coming of Christ began it was a secret, although the Bible said it would be through a virgin, and it even said the territory where He would be born: Bethlehem of Judaea, and despite all of that, it was a secret, a hidden mystery, because Christ said27: “I thank thee, O Father… because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.”
And now, ever since Christ was born on Earth, the fulfillment of the First Coming of Christ has been there, but it began as a mystery; for the first thirty years, approximately, it was a hidden mystery; then, He revealed Himself, He manifested Himself to the Hebrew people, and still, even though He was revealed, testifying the fulfillment of His Coming, it was still a mystery that the great religious leaders of that time could not understand.
And now, when the Seventh Seal begins, the forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ says It will be what? Absolutely a total secret, according to the Bible.
If it was nearly a secret since the birth of Jesus until He was thirty years old, how will it be since the beginning of the veil of flesh in whom the Word will be incarnate at the Last Day? That will be a secret no one will understand until Christ Himself, the Angel of the Covenant, the Word, the Word through that veil of flesh makes that mystery known to us; and that is when we will be able to understand it. Because He is the only one who can make that mystery known.
There will be no other preacher, no other angel messenger from any of the past ages who will be able to make that mystery known. It is the same Angel of the Lord, the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel who was different from the rest, the same Word, which is the Word incarnate in a man and through that man, He will be able to reveal to His Church the mystery of His Coming in human flesh in His Angel Messenger. It continues:
“Before knowing That. And remember, Revelation 10:1-7, 1 to 7, chapter 10:1 to 7, ‘At the end of the seventh angel’s Message, all the mysteries of God would be known.’ We’re at the end time, the opening of the Seventh Seal.”
Notice that since the time of our brother Branham, it has been time for the Seventh Seal, even though It was not open to the public yet.
“Now, how did I know? The other day, last Sunday, a week ago today, when I was preaching on ‘Be humble! Be humble! Remember, God deals in little things.’ I didn’t realize what it really was talking about. And now I see it. It is in such a humble way! You would think that something like that would be revealed to the Vatican or… But It comes just like John the Baptist…”
How did John the Baptist come? He came with the ministry of Elijah in its third manifestation. And the Seventh Seal comes with the ministry of Elijah in its fifth manifestation; It comes as Elijah and It comes like what?:
“It comes like the birth of our Lord, in a stable. Glory to God! So help me, the hour is at hand! Amen! We’re here. Oh, my!”
It comes like the birth of our Lord, in a stable, where? In Bethlehem of Judea.
And where will the veil of flesh be born in whom the Word will come incarnate? Where will it be born? It will be born again in Christ, which is to be born in Bethlehem of Judea. It is a veil of flesh that will have been born in the Mystical Body of Christ, he will have obtained the new birth because he will have believed in Christ as His Savior and washed away His sins in the Blood of Christ and received the Spirit of Christ, and thus, he will have been born in the Kingdom of God, in our Bethlehem, which is Christ. And since the Church of Jesus Christ is Christ in the form of His Mystical Body, It is also Bethlehem.
Now we can see how, through a virgin (which is His Church) that birth takes place, and he comes at the Last Day, to fulfill what has been promised for the fulfillment of the Seventh Seal.
Let’s leave all of that alone now, we have seen what is the position of the Seventh Seal in the Temple of the Lord, in the Temple of God, in the Temple which is in Heaven as well as the temple Moses made and the temple Solomon made, and the spiritual Temple of Christ, which is His Church.
We have seen which is the mystery of the Seventh Seal: it is the mystery of the Coming of the Angel of the Covenant, the Coming of the Angel of the Lord, the Coming of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit at the Last Day, in human flesh, in His Angel Messenger; but His Angel Messenger is not Jesus, he is not Elijah, he is not Moses either, however, Jesus Christ will be in him, in Holy Spirit, manifesting the ministries of Moses, Elijah and Jesus; that is the mystery of the Coming of the Son of Man with His Angels.
It has been a great privilege to be with you this evening, testifying to you about: “THE POSITION OF THE SEVENTH SEAL IN THE TEMPLE OF GOD.”
May the blessings of Jesus Christ, from His Temple, from the Most Holy Place of His Temple, be upon each one of you and also upon me, and soon, may we all be changed and raptured at this end time. In the Eternal Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen and amen.
Let’s ask Miguel to come up here to continue this evening.
If you do not know where this whole mystery will be fulfilled, remember: Wherever the Age of the Cornerstone is fulfilled, which is Latin America and the Caribbean, that is the territory for the fulfillment of the Seventh Seal in the Temple of God, in the Temple of Jesus Christ, which is His Church, in the Age of the Cornerstone, in the most important place in His Temple.
Well, Miguel is coming now. While Miguel was on his way, I told you something there. If you did not know it or if you did not remember it, well, there you have it, I just refreshed your memory.
Well, where are we? In the Most Holy Place of the spiritual Temple in order to see His Coming at the Last Day with His Angels at this end time; the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, which is the Coming of the Word, the Coming of the Word incarnate in a man.
If the people find that man, well, they will have found the white horse Rider of Revelation 19, and by hearing that man, well they will be hearing the Seven Thunders of Revelation 10, the Voice of Christ making known to them the mystery of the Seventh Seal.
Well, that’s all… Let’s ask Miguel, because if he does not get here, we have nowhere to stop with a subject like this, because it is a subject that pertains to our age and to our dispensation, and to our Latin American and Caribbean people; those are the people to whom God would reveal this mystery.
Well, let’s have Miguel come, if he can come forward, because there is nowhere to stop here. Let’s just make a pause and in the next messages I will continue to speak to you in the different places about the Seventh Seal, which is the main subject of the Last Day.
That is the main subject because that is the subject that Christ said no man knew in Heaven or on Earth, not even Himself in those days; and that certainly is a great mystery, because if Jesus Christ Himself did not know that mystery in those days before He resurrected and sat on the Throne of God in Heaven…; afterwards He knew, but not before that; in other words, before, it was not in His conscious, but in His subconscious, and He had not taken it from His subconscious yet, therefore, He had not received the revelation of that mystery as far as its fulfillment, how the Word would come manifested at the Last Day.
Well, let’s leave it there. To say that Jesus did not know a mystery and to say that at this end time it will be revealed to us, that is something great; but to say that there were two He did not know is even greater. He said it Himself, that He did not know, nor did the Son know when the day and hour would be.
But that mystery would be revealed by the Jesus Christ Himself, because He would know it afterwards, He would be conscious of that mystery and He would reveal it to His Church at the Last Day in His Coming, the Coming of the Word in human flesh; and through human flesh, He would reveal this mystery to His Church. Notice how simple it is to know that mystery.
With us again, Miguel Bermudez Marin.
