WHO IS WILLIAM MARRION BRANHAM?

This question is very important for the Message believers. We have many versions or

answers among brethren. Some say Branham is just a prophet, another group confirm that

Branham is God, Christ Himself.

Who is right?

It seems as if there is a kind of confusion among Message Believers upon the real identity

of this man WM Branham.

Unbelievers usually find in this contradiction a reason to reject the Message. They wonder

how a Message from God can have several trends contradicting themselves. Instead of have

the same language, the Message believers are dividing themselves and sometime even

hating themselves.

However this confusing situation should be to a real believer a proof that this Message is

from God. A real revelation of God always bring on such situation.

Remember in the time of Jesus! The Bible says that there were division because of Jesus!

People did not have the same language on the person of Jesus.

“JOHN 7, 40 to 41 :

40 Many of the people therefore, when they heard

this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet.

41 Others said, This is the Christ. But some said,

Shall Christ come out of Galilee?

42 Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh

of the seed of David, and out of the town of

Bethlehem, where David was?

43 SO THERE WAS A DIVISION AMONG THE

PEOPLE BECAUSE OF HIM.”

See, even Jesus was not understood! Some was saying He was merely a prophet and

others were considering him to be Christ. Isn’t Jesus-Christ the same yesterday, today and

forever? If that was Christ yesterday, that should be Christ today! For He never change.

This Message is the hidden manna spoken about in revelation 2, 7 :

2

“REVELATION 2, 17 He that hath an ear, let him

hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him

that overcometh WILL I GIVE TO EAT OF THE HIDDEN

MANNA, AND WILL GIVE HIM A WHITE STONE, AND

IN THE STONE A NEW NAME WRITTEN, WHICH NO

MAN KNOWETH SAVING HE THAT RECEIVETH IT.”

I want to develop step by step from some points to the revelation. Just take time to read

quietly and, once again, may the Holy Spirit open your understanding.

To have a clear understanding of the message, we need to catch one of the biggest principles

of the Word of God.

That principle is that: GOD ALWAYS HIDE HIMSELF.

This is what many Message believers fail to understand!

Since the Garden of Eden, after Adam’s fall, God always hide himself! Yes I repeat it: GOD

HIDE HIMSELF!

Can you just imagine that? The creator of heaven and earth hiding himself!

Let’s take some biblical examples:

1. In the Garden of Eden, after the fall, God put cherubim’s around the tree of life to

guard it from human beings. The angels had the mission of preventing Adam and

Eve to touch and even to eat from that tree of life. And the tree of life is God Himself.

Cherubim’s guarding God!

“GENESIS 3:22 to 23

22 ¶ And the LORD God said, Behold, the man

is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and

now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the

tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:

23 Therefore the LORD God sent him forth from

the garden of Eden, to till the ground from whence

he was taken.

24 SO HE DROVE OUT THE MAN; AND HE PLACED

AT THE EAST OF THE GARDEN OF EDEN CHERUBIMS,

AND A FLAMING SWORD WHICH TURNED EVERY

WAY, TO KEEP THE WAY OF THE TREE OF LIFE.”

3

In Isaiah, the Bible says the something. God HIDE HIMSELF.

“ISAISH 45 : 15 VERILY THOU ART A GOD THAT

HIDEST THYSELF, O GOD OF ISRAEL, THE SAVIOUR.”

Also in the book of Proverbs the Bible says that the Gory of God is to conceal things and the

honor of the kings is to search out matter

“PROVERBS 25:2 IT IS THE GLORY OF GOD TO

CONCEAL A THING: BUT THE HONOUR OF KINGS IS

TO SEARCH OUT A MATTER.”

2. In the time of Jesus, God never changed his ways of hiding Himself! He kept doing

it even to the extent that the Lord Jesus praised God for doing so.

“MATTHEW 11: 25 ¶ At that time Jesus answered

and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and

earth, because thou hast hid these things from the

wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto

babes.”

Watch how Jesus forbid the demons even his disciples to make him known

“MARK 3:11 to 12

11 And unclean spirits, when they saw him, fell

down before him, and cried, saying, Thou art the Son

of God.

12 And he straitly charged them that they should

not make him known.”

“Marc 8.27 to 30

4

27 ¶ And Jesus went out, and his disciples, into

the towns of Caesarea Philippi: and by the way he

asked his disciples, saying unto them, Whom do men

say that I am?

28 And they answered, John the Baptist: but

some say, Elias; and others, One of the prophets.

29 And he saith unto them, But whom say ye

that I am? And Peter answereth and saith unto him,

Thou art the Christ.

30 And he charged them that they should tell no

man of him.”

What was doing Jesus? Being God, He was hiding Himself! Same Principle.

3. Now let’s look in our time in this Message. Brother Branham says God remain the

same in his ways! He never change. In his many quotes, brother Branham clearly

shows us that God is still hiding Himself. Let’s read some of his own quotations :

“THE.UNVEILING.OF.GOD_ JEFF.IN V-9 N-1

SUNDAY_ 64-0614M

22 Now, my subject this morning, I trust that God

will reveal this. And each time, if you who take the

tapes and listen, and I hope and trust that--that you

have had a spiritual understanding of what that God

has been trying to get over to the Church WITHOUT

SAYING IT RIGHT OUT. SEE? IT'S A THING,

SOMETIME, WE HAVE TO SAY THINGS IN SUCH A

WAY THAT IT MIGHT THIN DOWN, IT MIGHT BRING

SOME TO GO OUT, SOME TO LEAVE, AND SOME TO-

-TO--TO PONDER OVER. BUT THAT'S DONE

PURPOSELY. IT MUST BE DONE THAT WAY.

23 THEN IT MIGHT BE THAT SOME WOULD SAY,

"YOU MEAN GOD WOULD PURPOSELY DO A THING

LIKE THAT?" HE CERTAINLY DID. HE DOES YET.

24 He said one day, when He had thousands around

Him, He said, "Except you eat of the Flesh of the Son

5

of God, or Son of man, and drink His Blood, you have

no Life in you."

25 What kind of a statement do you think that a

medical doctor or a nurse, or any fine intellectual

person would think of a statement like that, for a

Man that had a ministry like He had? Why, he would

say, "Eat the flesh? That's cannibal! To drink human

blood? It's a vampire! In other words, He wants us

to be cannibals and vampires." And the whole

audience walked away from Him.

26 And there was a ministerial association with

Him, of seventy, that had been chosen. And He

turned to them, and He said, "What will you think

when you see the Son of man ascending up from

where He came from?" Now, He didn't explain that.

He never explained how; Paul did that later on. He

just said It. See? And then when this, He said, "What

will you say," to these ministers, "when you see the

Son of man ascending up from where He come

from?"

27 No doubt them man said, "Now, just a moment.

Oh, we eat with Him. We fish with Him. We sleep

with Him. We--we know where He was born. We

seen the cradle that He--He was rocked in. And how

does this Man... This is a hard saying."

28 And the Bible said, "They didn't walk with Him

anymore." They left Him.

29 Then He had twelve left. He had chose twelve,

and one of them was a devil, He said. So He turned

to them.

AND THERE'S NO ONE COULD EXPLAIN WHAT HE

HAD JUST SAID. "How are they going to eat His Flesh

and drink His Blood? And how did He come down,

when He was born right here on earth?" SEE? THEY

COULDN'T UNDERSTAND IT.

And then He turned to the apostles, and He said, "Do

you want to go also?"

30 And that's when Apostle Peter made that great

statement, "Lord, to whom would we go?" See? "For

we are satisfied. We know a surely that You, and You

6

alone, have the Word of Life of this hour." See? "And

we are satisfied of that." SEE, THEY COULD NOT

EXPLAIN IT. They...

YOU CAN'T EXPLAIN FAITH. IT'S SOMETHING THAT

YOU BELIEVE, AND IT'S SO SOLID THAT THERE IS

NOTHING ELSE WILL TAKE ITS PLACE.

Therefore, they knowed that the Word that was

written for that age that they were living in, the

Messiah-ic age, that He fit that place exactly. And

what could they do to go back in them cold, formal

churches that they had come out of? Said, "Where

would we go to?" See? "We are fully persuaded that

You have the Word of Life." See? And they--they

couldn't explain It, but they believed It. See?”

“EVENTS.MADE.CLEAR.BY.PROPHECY_ JEFF.IN V-12

N-3 SUNDAY_ 65-0801E

28 I said, "I never asked you to argue, but the Bible

does say, 'Come, let us reason together.'"

29 It foretells the Author's doings before He does

it. Therefore, telling that, then that puts every man

and woman, at the Judgment Bar, without any

excuse. If you take what the Methodist say about It,

what the Baptist say about It, what the Catholic

says, what the Pentecostal says, or any other church,

you might find some disappointments at the

Judgment. But if you'll just watch what the Bible

says is going to happen, and when it happens, then

you'll recognize what happens.

30 NOW, IT ISN'T RIGHT OUT IN PLAIN VIEW THAT

ALL PEOPLE CAN SEE IT, FOR JESUS THANKED GOD

FOR HIDING IT FROM THE EYES OF THE WISE AND

PRUDENT, AND WOULD REVEAL IT TO BABES SUCH

AS WOULD LEARN. THINK OF ALMIGHTY GOD

SITTING IN HIS OWN WORD, WITH POWER TO BLIND

THE RICH AND IMPUDENT AND--AND EDUCATED

SCHOLARS, BLIND THEIR EYES SO THEY CAN'T SEE

HIM, AND OPEN THE EYES OF THE POOR AND

ILLITERATE.

7

31 NOTICE THESE PEOPLE FROM EMMAUS, HE

SAID THEIR--THEIR UNDERSTANDING OF HIM WAS

WITHHELD. THEY TALKED TO HIM AND DIDN'T EVEN

KNOW WHO IT WAS, ALL DAY LONG. GOD CAN DO

THAT, FOR HE'S GOD.

32 That's exactly what He done to those priests,

those scribes, because It was written that He had to

do that. GOD BLINDED THEIR EYES SO WE WOULD

HAVE A CHANCE. NOTICE, THEY COULDN'T SEE, NO

MATTER HOW MUCH SCHOLARS, HOW MUCH

PRIESTS THEY WAS, WHAT THEY HAD DONE, THEY

STILL COULD NOT SEE IT, BECAUSE THEY WERE

BLIND. THEIR SIGHT MIGHT BEEN TWENTY-TWENTY,

PHYSICALLY. BUT THEIR SPIRITUAL SIGHT!”

“CHRIST.IS.REVEALED.IN.HIS.OWN.WORD_ JEFF.IN

V-4 N-10 SUNDAY_ 65-0822M

93 And, notice, "To whom He will reveal It." AND

HE SO DESIGNED THAT HE CAN HIDE HIMSELF IN THE

SCRIPTURE, TO THE SMARTEST THEOLOGIAN THERE

IS. OH, MY! HE CAN JUST HIDE HIMSELF, SET RIGHT

THERE IN THE SCRIPTURE, AND YOU LOOK ALL DAY

LONG AND NEVER SEE IT; LOOK A LIFETIME, AND

NEVER SEE IT. HE CAN JUST HIDE HIMSELF, SETTING

THERE.

94 NOW, PLEASE, EVERYWHERE, LET THAT SOAK

IN. THAT, GOD, IN THE WORD, CAN HIDE HIMSELF

SO IN THE WORD, THAT THERE ISN'T A THEOLOGIAN

OR A SCHOOL IN THE WORLD COULD EVER FIND

HIM, AND YET HE'S SETTING RIGHT THERE.

You say, "Is that right, Brother Branham?"

How about the Pharisees and Sadducees? HOW

ABOUT IN EVERY AGE? He's done it. Sure. He's done

so in every age. Now we could check that. Let's think

about the days of Noah; smart, intellectual age, how

He hid Hisself in His promised Word. In the days of

Moses, how He hid Hisself. In the days of Elijah, how

He hid Hisself. In the days of Jesus, how He hid

Hisself. "He was in the world, and the world was

8

made by Him, and the world knew Him not. He came

to His Own; His Own received Him not." See?

95 HE HIDES HIMSELF FROM THE SMARTEST,

INTELLECTUAL MAN THERE IS ON THE EARTH. YOU

SAY, "WELL, THIS IS DR. HOLY FATHER SO-AND-SO."

I DON'T CARE WHO HE IS, GOD HIDES HIMSELF

FROM HIM; AND WILL REVEAL IT TO BABIES SUCH AS

WILL LEARN, SEE, BABIES OF GOD, PREDESTINATED

SEED.

96 Think. The Mighty God, setting in His Own

Words, blinding the smart, educated people of this

present age, and they don't see it. They think it's just

a bunch of fanaticism. LOOK AT HIM STANDING

THERE HIDING, TO PENTECOSTALS, BAPTISTS,

METHODISTS, PRESBYTERIAN. Reveal Himself right

out publicly, and showing all kinds of things, even

putting it in the papers, and things like that, yet they

don't see it. Oh, our God, how great, revealing

Himself to whomever He will.

97 "Oh," you say, "Brother Jones or Brother So-and-

so, he's--he's a great man. He'll see It." Oh, no. He

reveals It to whom He will. Say, "My wife don't see

It, and she's a Christian woman." He reveals Himself

to whom He will. "Well, my pastor is a great man."

That's right, but He reveals Himself to whom He will.

Now, check with what's been revealed, to what's

happening, then you'll... you can quite understand.”

Brother I hope you take your time to reads these statements of brother Branham. God

always hid Himself. God never come in plain view saying: ‘‘I AM GOD’’ Never did it before

and He could not do it now!

We need to let this principle soak in our soul if we want to understand the Message! GOD

HIDE HIMSELF! Always!

Pharisees could not understand Jesus because of that! Jesus never spoke to them clearly.

The message tells us that Jesus never said to them that HE WAS GOD, the creator. He had

just to identify himself to the scriptures and they had to discover the truth by themselves.

Let’s read this:

“MODERN.EVENTS.ARE.MADE.CLEAR.BY.PROPHECY

_ SBD.CA V-7 N-6 MONDAY_ 65-1206

266 Notice how Jesus sel-... made Hisself known to

these disciples, now, and we'll close. These two

disciples, Caiaphas... Cleopas, rather, and his friend.

Now we're in the resurrection, the morning after the

resurrection, the first resurrection; what a beautiful

morning, Jesus is up from the dead and living among

His people. What a beautiful thought!

267 He's here the same today as He was that day,

because He's the same yesterday, today, and for...

And revealing Hisself more today than He has in any

other age since that day; come through the wheat

and stalk and shuck (is all past now), we're into the

wheat again. See, we're back into the grain.

268 Known as... know... WATCH HOW HE MADE

HISSELF KNOWN TO THESE PEOPLE, NOW,

REMEMBER, AS THEIR MESSIAH (just before we

close) of the promised Word of the age. Notice! He

appeared unto, to the... as He has said He'd do, to

the prophets. Notice, "Fools, and slow of heart to

believe that all the prophets has wrote of Him had

to be fulfilled."

269 WATCH HIM! HE REFERS RIGHT BACK TO THE

WORD OF GOD, HE NEVER COME RIGHT OUT AND

TOLD THEM, "DON'T YOU KNOW ME? I AM THE

MESSIAH THAT'S RESURRECTED." HE NEVER SAID

THAT. SEE, HE JUST GIVE THEM THE SCRIPTURE; LIKE

JOHN DID, AND THE REST OF THEM. SEE? HE JUST...

THEY HAVE TO PICK THAT OUT THEMSELVES. THEY

HAVE TO JUDGE FOR THEIRSELVES. NOW, DON'T GO

TO SLEEP, JUDGE FOR YOURSELF.

270 "Fools, slow of heart to believe all that the

prophets has said had to come to pass." What a

rebuke to them that claimed they knew Him. See?

271 NOTICE HOW HE APPROACHED THE SUBJECT.

HE NEVER COME RIGHT OUT, AS I SAID A FEW

MINUTES AGO, AND SAID, "WELL, DON'T YOU

KNOW I'M YOUR MESSIAH FOR THIS AGE? DON'T

YOU KNOW THAT I'M HE?" THE REAL SERVANT OF

GOD NEVER IDENTIFIES HIMSELF THAT WAY; THE

10

SCRIPTURE IDENTIFIES WHO HE IS. SURE, HE WILL.

BUT CALLED THEIR ATTENTION TO WHAT THE

PROPHETS HAD SAID TO LOOK FOR IN THE

MESSIAH'S AGE. See it? Go right back: "Fools, and

slow of heart, not to believe that all the prophets

said about the Messiah should come to pass."

272 He, as John, let the Word of the Bible identify

Him, what He was to them. That should been made

plain enough. If the Word had identified Him, that

should be plain, who the promise was they was

looking at. They knowed he had... someone had to

come on the scene at that time.

273 Why, He say, "Now let Me show what the

Word says is supposed to happen in this day."

274 AM NOT I, TONIGHT, TRYING TO TELL YOU,

WORD BY WORD (EVEN TO THE POSITION, THE

PLACE, THE NAMES, NUMBERS, EVERYTHING ELSE,

AND ALL THE SIGNS, TIMES, AND EVERYTHING),

THAT WE'RE RIGHT HERE AT THE END TIME? SURELY

YOU CAN SEE WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT. SEE?

Look! That's so plain it should need no more

identification. He said, when He was here on earth,

"Search the Scriptures, in them you think you have

Eternal Life, they are what... they testify what I am,

see, who I am."”

This principle is, if not the greatest, but one of the greatest in the world of revelation. We

need to think of it anytime we are dealing with scriptures. We need to understand that the

MESSAGE is ‘‘a between the lines MESSAGE’’

We need to read between the lines so that we can understand and have the revelation of

what brother Branham says without saying it plainly.

“THE PRESENCE OF GOD UNRECOGNIZED

TOPEKA KS 64-0618 83

208 Now there is, no doubt, sick people among

you out there. I don't know you, at all. And to prove

what I was saying a while ago, as the Angel of the

Lord in the days gone by, the days past, by, Jesus

said, "As it was in the days of Lot, so shall it be at the

11

coming of the Son of man." CAN YOU SEE WHAT I

EVERYTHING ELSE POSITIONALLY, THE CHURCH

SITTING RIGHT, CAN YOU SEE IT? NOW I'M SURE

YOU READ BETWEEN THE LINES OF THINGS THAT I

DIDN'T SPEAK, YOU SEE WHAT I MEANT. Now if you

people in here, that are sick and needy, I'm...”

I hope I made myself understood. The Message is for the elect! Only elects will catch the

secret of this message. Daniel said in his days that the wicked ones will never understand

the revelation book.

“DANIEL 12:1 à 10

1 ¶ And at that time shall Michael stand up,

the great prince which standeth for the children of

thy people: and there shall be a time of trouble, such

as never was since there was a nation even to that

same time: and at that time thy people shall be

delivered, every one that shall be found written in

the book.

2 And many of them that sleep in the dust of the

earth shall awake, some to everlasting life, and

some to shame and everlasting contempt.

3 And they that be wise shall shine as the

brightness of the firmament; and they that turn

many to righteousness as the stars for ever and ever.

4 But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal

the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run

to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.

5 ¶ Then I Daniel looked, and, behold, there

stood other two, the one on this side of the bank of

the river, and the other on that side of the bank of

the river.

6 And one said to the man clothed in linen, which

was upon the waters of the river, How long shall it

be to the end of these wonders?

7 And I heard the man clothed in linen, which

was upon the waters of the river, when he held up

12

his right hand and his left hand unto heaven, and

sware by him that liveth for ever that it shall be for

a time, times, and an half; and when he shall have

accomplished to scatter the power of the holy

people, all these things shall be finished.

8 And I heard, but I understood not: then said I,

O my Lord, what shall be the end of these things?

9 And he said, Go thy way, Daniel: for the words

are closed up and sealed till the time of the end.

10 MANY SHALL BE PURIFIED, AND MADE

WHITE, AND TRIED; BUT THE WICKED SHALL DO

WICKEDLY: AND NONE OF THE WICKED SHALL

UNDERSTAND; BUT THE WISE SHALL

UNDERSTAND.”

We are right in that prophetic time brother! No wicked can understand this Message for it

the secret for the Bride only.

The Message has two big parts called Climaxes.

Likewise Moses got two signs, Brother Branham had signs to attract elects, those

predestinate seeds.

“EXODUS 4:1 to 9

1 ¶ And Moses answered and said, But, behold,

they will not believe me, nor hearken unto my voice:

for they will say, The LORD hath not appeared unto

thee.

2 And the LORD said unto him, What is that in

thine hand? And he said, A rod.

3 And he said, Cast it on the ground. And he cast

it on the ground, and it became a serpent; and

Moses fled from before it.

4 And the LORD said unto Moses, Put forth thine

hand, and take it by the tail. And he put forth his

hand, and caught it, and it became a rod in his hand:

5 That they may believe that the LORD God of

their fathers, the God of Abraham, the God of Isaac,

and the God of Jacob, hath appeared unto thee.

13

6 And the LORD said furthermore unto him, Put

now thine hand into thy bosom. And he put his hand

into his bosom: and when he took it out, behold, his

hand was leprous as snow.

7 And he said, Put thine hand into thy bosom

again. And he put his hand into his bosom again;

and plucked it out of his bosom, and, behold, it was

turned again as his other flesh.

8 And it shall come to pass, if they will not

believe thee, neither hearken to the voice of the first

sign, that they will believe the voice of the latter

sign.

9 AND IT SHALL COME TO PASS, IF THEY WILL

NOT BELIEVE ALSO THESE TWO SIGNS, neither

hearken unto thy voice, that thou shalt take of the

water of the river, and pour it upon the dry land: and

the water which thou takest out of the river shall

become blood upon the dry land.”

Brother Branham had three signs which he called pulls (meaning attractions). He had two

climaxes or levels in his ministry”

We should understand that this Message has two climaxes and there are three pulls

(attractions) grouped in those two climaxes.

These are the three pulls or attractions

• Branham’s first pull was a gift of the divine healing through vibration on his left hand

• Branham’s second pull or second attractions was the discernments of thoughts

• Branham’s third pull : A silence; the opening of the word

The two first pull are in the first climax of Brother Branham’s Message and the third Pull is

the second, the last and greatest climax.

Many Message believers recognize only the first climax of brother Branham’s Message. They

are many in the world and they are absolutely blind for the second Climax. This group is just

like Pentecostals seeking for miracles, gifts of the spirits—which is not bad – but they fail to

see the revelation of the word made flesh in Branham (the second climax)

Only few, the elects has understood this second climax but they are despised,

underestimate even excommunicated from tabernacles. I am among this group.

The first climax was only a foundation of the second Climax. It was the first and second pull.

Signs and wonders and many loved it. People, even Pentecostals loved Brother Branham.

14

They were inviting him to perform miracles in their congregations. But that was not the

Real Message! It was just a Message of preparation.

The real Message was yet to come: THE THIRD PULL, the SEVENTH SEALS, the CAPSTONE,

THE WHITE GRANIT (STONE), the SILENCE, and the SEVEN THUNDERS!

This second climax is about the deity in William Marrion Branham which makes him CHRIST,

the anointed one.

Brother Branham saw these two climaxes in his vision as we can read below:

“VISION.FROM.THE.LORD_ JEFF.IN TUESDAY_ 62-

1030X

` [There is no audio for this text. Brother William

Marrion Branham received this vision on October 30,

1962, Tuesday morning about five o'clock at his

home in Jeffersonville, Indiana. Later that morning

he went to the Branham Tabernacle office and met

with his son, Brother Billy Paul Branham, and said,

"Paul, I had a vision from the Lord last night, and I

want you to type it out for me like I am going to tell

you, and file this away." He later speaks of it,

November 4, 1962, on Blasphemous Names, for

about three pages--Ed.]

It came to pass while I lay on my bed, this morning

about five o'clock A.M., that this vision appeared to

me, but I do not understand at this time.

IT SEEMED TO ME THAT I SAW MYSELF PREACHING,

AND THAT I WAS STANDING IN THE SUN. I was

preaching to a huge congregation which was seated

in a wooded area where just portions of the sun was

coming through. I was rejoicing deep in my heart, all

thrilled, because of the text that I was preaching

from.

THE SUBJECT WOULD HAVE TWO CLIMAXES. I WAS

LAYING A BACKGROUND FOR MY FIRST CLIMAX,

when all of a sudden I noticed that it was getting

late, near the noon hour, and my congregation

began to get physically hungry. And they started

getting up and walking out, with the intention of

returning, but they must have physical food

15

according to their thinking, AND SOME WERE JUST

GETTING TIRED OF LISTENING.

I NOTICED TO MY RIGHT SIDE SOME YOUNG

MARRIED PEOPLE WERE LEAVING, AND I SCREAMED

OUT TO THEM, "DON'T GO! FOR ALL THESE

WONDERFUL THINGS THAT I HAVE SHOWED YOU,

YOU DON'T KNOW WHERE THEY HAVE COME FROM

OR WHERE YOU CAN FIND THEM!" THEN THAT WAS

TO BE MY FIRST CLIMAX. I grabbed my Bible and

screamed, making the climax, "They are found in the

Bible, for I am commissioned to preach only the

Bible!" But the congregation walked on.

I LOOKED TOWARDS THE FOREST CHURCH, AND NO

ONE WAS THERE. Then I turned, and I said that was

the first climax, but in my heart I knew that they

would be back for the evening service, AND ALL I

WOULD HAVE TO DO WOULD BE LAY A LITTLE

BACKGROUND OF MY MORNING SERVICE, THEN I

COULD REACH THAT GREAT CLIMAX FOR THE

EVENING SERVICE. And my heart was so thrilled, as I

turned from my forest cathedral, to wait for the

evening service to begin.

Brother William Marrion Branham” `

“CONVINCED.AND.THEN.CONCERNED_

SHREVEPORT.LA SUNDAY_ 62-1125M

E-11 AND YOU KNOW, I HAD A VISION NOT LONG

AGO, A FEW WEEKS AGO THAT I WAS PREACHING

FROM THE SUN, AND HAD A GREAT AUDIENCE. AND

IT WILL COME TO PASS. And I was preaching, and my

audience was a--a--a cathedral in the forest. AND

THE SUN THAT I WAS STANDING IN WAS SHINING

DOWN ON MANY PLACES. I HAD TWO CLIMAXES TO

MAKE, AND I WAS SHOWING THEM ABOUT DIVINE

HEALING, ABOUT VISIONS, AND HOW THAT GOD

HAD PROMISED, AND EVERYTHING. AND THEY WAS

REJOICING.

BUT THEN, WHEN I GOT DOWN TO MAKE... MY

FIRST CLIMAX WAS TO TELL THEM THAT ALL THESE

THINGS WAS THE WORD. AND WHEN I GOT TO SAY

16

THAT, EVERYBODY GOT HUNGRY. I DO PREACH

AWFUL LONG. BUT THEY GOT HUNGRY AND

WANTED TO GO GET SOMETHING TO EAT, AND THEY

STARTED GOING AWAY.

I SAID, "WAIT A MINUTE. YOU HAVEN'T HEARD. SEE,

I WANT TO TELL YOU WHERE IT COMES FROM. IT'S

THE WORD, THE WORD." AND WHEN I STARTED TO

SAY IT--TALK IT BACK ABOUT THE WORD, AND HOW

IT WAS DONE BY THE WORD, EVERYBODY LEFT.

WELL, THAT'S THE WAY IT'S HAPPENED. AND WHEN

I WAS STAND THERE, THE SCRIPTURES COME TO

ME... (IN THE VISION SETTING IN A CHAIR, ABOUT

NINE O'CLOCK ONE MORNING AT MY HOME.)

E-12 AND THEN, YOU KNOW, OUR LORD WHEN HE

WAS HIS YOUNG MINISTRY, WHEN HE WAS

HEALING THE SICK AND EVERYTHING, THAT YOUNG

RABBI FROM GALILEE, HE WAS A GREAT FELLOW.

BUT ONE DAY HE BEGIN TO GET DOWN ON THE

WORD. AND WHEN HE GOT ON THE WORD, THE

PEOPLE WALKED AWAY. THE SEVENTY LEFT HIM.

AND THEN HE TURNED AND SAID TO TWELVE, "WILL

YOU GO ALSO?." SEE?

THEN I HAPPENED TO THINK IN MY VISION, "YES,

THAT'S RIGHT. SEE, I GOT ANOTHER CLIMAX, A

GREAT CLIMAX I'VE GOT TO MAKE. SEE? BUT THE

SUN'S A SHINING BRIGHT NOW. BUT THE EVENING

SHADOWS WILL BE FALLING AFTER WHILE. THEY'LL

ALL BE COMING BACK AGAIN. THEN I'LL MAKE THIS

OTHER CLIMAX. I RAISED UP MY HAND, AND SAID,

"GLORY TO GOD. I WON'T HAVE TO STUDY NO

MORE, BECAUSE MY COMMISSION IN THE

BEGINNING WAS STAY WITH THE WORD, AND I'LL

STAY WITH THAT. AND THEN WHEN I START AGAIN,

I'LL JUST BACKGROUND WHAT I SAID, AND THEN

WAIT FOR THIS CLIMAX." And I thought, "I mustn't

forget it." And I come out of the vision. I don't know

what--what text I had. BUT THERE'S ANOTHER

CLIMAX COMING, JUST AS SURE.

E-13 I want to say to you all here... I don't get to

is small, and we're jammed in there like I don't know

what, and hundreds waiting, come around, and

17

turned away, and so forth, from different states and

things.

But when the Word begin to come forth, I want to

tell you before... I'm associate pastor here, you

know, before this congregation. When the Word

begin to come forth, you know what Peter said?

"Lord, where would we go?" Stay with the Word.

4-2 Now, I have had many things to happen in my

life, but I never had anything like that. I went into a

trance. I don't know the interpretation. I've never

had anything like it in my life. But before me, it

seemingly that I realized that it was a vision, and I

was in the vision. But I was talking to my son, Joseph

which he was not in the room at the time. But

somehow, just as it struck me, I was talking to

Joseph.

And I--I looked up, and kind of in the shape of a

pyramid, standing before me, was little small birds,

something like a half-inch long. And they were up at

the top on the limbs, they was a--may say three or

four, and the next--next limb had maybe eight or

ten, and down at the bottom had fifteen or twenty.

They were little warriors, because their feathers was

beaten; and looked like they were trying to talk to

me, saying something.

4-4 And I was in the west, seemingly around

Tucson, Arizona. And the birds were looking east,

and I was listening close to--trying to say... Looked

like they were trying to tell me something. And they

had--little feathers was all been beat up and things.

They were pretty well battle-scarred.

Then all of a sudden, one bird begin to take the other

one's place--jumping like that--and they, the little

birds, swiftly left, flying eastward. And when they

did, from that came a larger bird, more like doves,

with the pointed wings; and--and--and they come in

18

a swarm and swiftly--more swift than what the little

birds was--flew eastward.

4-6 And I, still in my--the two consciouses

together, I knowed I was standing here, and I

knowed I was somewhere else. See? And I thought,

"Now, this is vision, and I must learn what this

means." And no more than the second group of birds

come by, I looked to the west; and it looked like in a

form of a pyramid, like two on each side with one in

the top, came five of the mightiest Angels I ever seen

in my life. Such a terrific speed I never seen... Their

heads back and their pointed wings just sailing

quickly.

And the power of Almighty God struck me in such a

way till it lifted me plumb from the ground, all the

way from the ground up. I could hear Joseph still

speaking. And sound like the sound barrier breaking,

that--that a great roar went off way in the distance

to the south.

AND WHEN I WAS LIFTED UP, AND THERE WAS SUCH

A TERRIFIC SPEED OF THE ANGELS. AND I--I CAN JUST

SEE THEM RIGHT NOW (SEE?), AS--AS THEY WERE

COMING IN THAT SHAPE LIKE THAT, JUST SWEEPING

RIGHT INTO ME. NOW, NOT DREAMING NOW. NO, I

WAS RIGHT THERE WIDE AWAKE AS I AM NOW. SEE?

5-3 BUT HERE THEY COME. AND THEY WERE SO

TERRIFICALLY FAST, TILL I THOUGHT WHEN IT LIFTED

UP... I HEARD THAT EXPLOSION LIKE, OR LIKE A

BLAST THAT WENT OUT, LIKE A SOUND BARRIER;

AND WHEN IT DID, I THOUGHT, "WELL, THIS MUST

MEAN THAT I'M FIXING TO BE KILLED (SEE?) IN A

BLAST OF SOME SORT." AND--AND I--AND WHILE I

THOUGHT ON THOSE THINGS, I THOUGHT, "NO, IT

WOULDN'T BE THAT, BECAUSE IF IT WAS A BLAST, IT

WOULD'VE GOT JOSEPH TOO, BECAUSE THERE HE IS

STILL TALKING, THINKING THAT I'M THERE. I CAN

HEAR HIM. IT WASN'T THAT."

THIS IS ALL STILL IN THE VISION. IT WASN'T... SEE,

IT'S IN THE VISION. AND THEN ALL AT ONCE, AS I

REALIZED THAT I HAD BEEN... THEY WERE AROUND

ME. I COULDN'T SEE THEM, BUT I'D BEEN BROUGHT

INTO THIS CONSTELLATION OF A PYRAMID OF

19

THEM, INSIDE THIS CONSTELLATION OF--OF ANGELS,

OF FIVE. AND I THOUGHT, "NOW, A DEATH ANGEL

WOULD BE ONE, FIVE WOULD BE GRACE." I WAS

THINKING THAT; I THOUGHT, "OH, IT'S THE--IT'S

COMING WITH MY MESSAGE. THAT'S MY SECOND

CLIMAX. THEY'RE COMING TO BRING ME THE

MESSAGE FROM THE LORD." AND I SCREAMED OUT

WITH ALL OF MY MIGHT, AS LOUD AS I COULD, "OH

JESUS, WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE ME DO?" AND

WHEN I DID, IT JUST--JUST WENT AWAY FROM ME.”

7-7 IN THE VISION THE OTHER DAY, YOU KNOW AS

I HAD HERE NOT LONG AGO TELLING ME ABOUT

WHAT WAS GOING TO HAPPEN, HOW I WAS

PREACHING IN--FROM THE SUN INTO THIS PLACE,

AND--AND THEN HE SAID, "NOW, REMEMBER, THE

SECOND CLIMAX IS YET TO COME."

AND I THOUGHT, "THERE'LL BE A MESSAGE." YOU

REMEMBER MY MESSAGE HERE? THE OPENING OF

THAT CAPSTONE, WHERE THOSE SEVEN VOICES AND

SEALS WAS NOT EVEN WROTE IN THE WORD OF

GOD. REMEMBER? AND IT TOOK ME INTO THAT

GIVING YOU THE INTERPRETATION, 'CAUSE I SEEN

leading right straight to the same thing, and then

just the other day (See?), that would happen. And

there it is laying right everything laying right out

there. It's just something moving. I don't know what

it is. God help me, is my prayer. Let us pray.”

As you surely notice in reading these quotes, people were tired, kind of fed up with the first

climax. They even left instead of waiting the second and greatest climax. They had self-

satisfaction! It was just good and enough for them! That’s what is exactly happening even

now! Message preachers and believers are satisfied with the first climax! They need nothing

more. They have postponed all other promises to the future! Still waiting for the rapture,

waiting for the Second Coming of the Lord; waiting for this and waiting for that!

Before the second climax, which is the fact of seeing and recognizing Brother Branham

preaching from the SUN, and in the SUN. He was not only a star (merely a messenger) but

He was the SUN (CHRIST HIMSELF), people left Him.

In the first climax, brother Branham was just a forerunner of the second coming of Jesus.

Just as John the Baptist was forerunning the first coming of the Lord.

The angel told brother Branham that his MESSAGE, will forerun the second coming of the

Lord just as John the Baptist did for the first coming.

Bro Branham’s MESSAGE must forerun the Second Coming of the Lord Jesus.

Many preachers always emphasize on this: ‘‘THE MESSAGE WILL FORERUN THE SECOND

COMING! ‘’ They say it not brother Braham himself but his Message.

By emphasizing in that these preachers and believers are just trying to respond to

unbelievers who are asking why brother Branham died without introducing the Second

coming just like John the Baptist did which is contrary to his commission ?

For lack of argument, they always answer in saying: ‘‘it’s not brother Branham who is the

forerunner but His Message is!’. They willingly forget that brother Branham says that the

Message and the Messenger are one!

How can you have a message without a messenger? We cannot have a message without a

messenger! The message is the messenger! Let’s me try to make it clear.

Brother Branham explained to us how we get the Message. Where is the Message which

will forerun the Second Coming? We have the Message IN TAPE AND BOOK FORM !

“THE BREACH BETWEEN THE SEVEN CHURCH AGES

AND THE SEVEN SEALS JEFFERSONVILLE IN 63-

0317E 157

73-1 {37} Now, see, the mystery of this seven-

sealed Book will be revealed at the sounding of the

seventh church angel's message. See? The seventh

angel begins to sound, AND THERE'S THE MESSAGES

WROTE OUT THERE, AND WE GOT IT IN TAPE AND

BOOK FORM…”

21

There is no other Message outside of the Tapes and the sermons books of Branham we all

have in our houses!

We already have the Message in the tape and book form! And nothing will be added or

taken away to these Message (Tapes and books)! There is not a new Message coming! The

Message is already here and the Message is complete! See?

The Message (the tapes and the books) not will introduce but are introducing Christ right

now! We just need to listen to tapes and read the sermons books to find out how the

Message is introducing the second coming to us!

Let’s read a portion of the Message (our forerunner) about the coming of Christ.

“THE.BREACH.BETWEEN.THE.SEVEN.CHURCH.AGES.

AND.THE.SEVEN.SEALS_ JEFF.IN SUNDAY_ 63-

0317E

74-2 {40} Now, you see, I'm just not making that

up. That's what... It's THUS SAITH THE LORD. I'll read

it to you out of the Book: the sounding of the seventh

angel's message, the mystery of God should be

finished that's been declared by His holy prophets.

That's the prophets who has wrote the Word. At the

sounding of the seventh church age, the last church

age, all the loose ends that through these church

ages have been probed at, will be wound up

together. AND WHEN THE SEALS ARE BROKE AND

THE MYSTERY IS REVEALED, DOWN COMES THE

ANGEL, THE MESSENGER, CHRIST, SETTING HIS FOOT

UPON THE LAND AND UPON THE SEA WITH A

RAINBOW OVER HIS HEAD. NOW REMEMBER, THIS

SEVENTH ANGEL IS ON EARTH AT THE TIME OF THIS

COMING.

74-3 {42} JUST AS JOHN WAS GIVING HIS

MESSAGE, THE SAME TIME THAT MESSIAH COME IN

THE DAYS... JOHN KNEW HE WOULD SEE HIM,

BECAUSE HE WAS GOING TO INTRODUCE HIM. And

we realize that in the Scriptures over in Malachi 4,

there's to be a one like John, a--an Elijah, to whom

the Word of God can come to, and he is to reveal by

the Holy Spirit all the mysteries of God and restore

the faith of the children back to the faith of the

apostolic fathers: restore back all these mysteries

that's been probed at through these denominational

22

years. Now, that's what the Word said. I'm just

responsible for what It said. See? It's--it's written is

right. That's what It is.”

Can you see? Brother Branham makes a parallel of his time with the time of John the Baptist!

John the Baptist could not die or quit without introducing the First coming of Jesus.

Otherwise he could not have been called forerunner! It would be a no sense!

Brother Branham says it’s the same way here! The Seventh angel (the forerunner) is on

earth at the time of that coming! Isn’t this clear? That’s the seventh Seal.

It happed just like it did with Joh the Baptist!

“THE SEVENTH SEAL JEFFERSONVILLE IN 63-

0324E 153

564-4 {305} 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'D THINK THAT SOMETHING LIKE

THAT WOULD BE REVEALED TO THE VATICAN, OR,

BUT IT COMES JUST LIKE JOHN THE BAPTIST. It

comes like the birth of our Lord in a stable. Glory to

God. So help me, the hour is at hand. We're here. Oh,

my.

Now, do you see it? The Truth of God's vision, the

seven Angels, bringing me from the west. They were

coming from the west, coming back east, bringing

here for this message tonight. Oh, my.”

It comes just like John the Baptist!

Remember, before preaching the seals, Brother Branham started with the sermon entitled

GOD HIDING HIMSELF IN SIMPLICITY, THEN REVEALING HIMSELF! The principle! He was

preparing the folks to understand that it’s all about the biggest secret of the Coming which

is supposed to be secret! The secret coming; He comes as a thief during the night.

The first climax, with the first two pulls, Brother Branham acted as the forerunner which

was merely a foundation of the second climax, the Third Pull, the Seventh Seal: CHRIST!

Now I will show you how it happened with one of the vision of Junior Jackson. It one of the

outstand vision about these two climaxes showing clearly the two dimensions of Brother

Branham’s ministry.

23

In the sermon entitled: ‘‘Is this the sign of the End?” or ‘‘Sirs, what is the time?’’ Bro

Branham gave testimonies of 6 dreams God gave to 6 brothers crowned by a Vision he saw

himself.

And all the dreams spoke of the same thing: the two climaxes in brother Branham’s

Ministry!

As Brother Branham, we will emphasize more on the sixth dream, the one of brother Junior

Jackson. And we will talk about the Vision.

Junior Jackson saw a great big hill with a Rock on the top. Water was coming from that Rock

and made some mysterious writings which brother Branham was interpreting to the people.

None but William Marrion Branham could interprets those writings and he did.

That’s the first climax! The interpretation of the mysterious written words

After having interpreted the written words, Brother Branham took a sharp wrecked bar

from the air truck the top of the Mountain, the Roc, and ripped it around, lifted the cap of

it off and there , inside, there were a mysterious white Rock, a white stone; white granite

with no letters on! Nothing was written on that mysterious Stone. It was just a silence! You

could read or hear nothing from that white granite. That’s the second climax of Brother

Branham Message: dealing with unwritten words.

The second climax is to interpret the invisible or the unwritten! The outside of the Bible. It

was quiet a silence but with a secret inside. The white Stone.

Brother Branham did not interpret that mysterious white stone because nothing was

written on! He just asked the congregation not to move but to stay and keep watching the

Stone until he comes back. Meanwhile he had to go to the west coast and bring back the

interpretation of that mysterious Rock.

As I said, the White Stone was that great a mysterious second climax. People had to stay

there, eyes upon that Rock and wait till they get the interpretation. But they did not! They

left with their own interpretation, some went to the north, some to the east and so on.

Only few remained watching the stone. See? The elects. Only few but others felt satisfied

with the first part, the interpretation of the written words and could not wait any longer for

the unwritten words! Only few stayed with the White Written stone.

Let’s read from brother Branham himself

“IS.THIS.THE.SIGN.OF.THE.END.SIR_ JEFF.IN V-2 N-

11 SUNDAY_ 62-1230E

14-3 Now, I show you, knowing what was going

to happen, Brother Jackson dreamed a dream. He

couldn't get away from it. And I was leaving his

24

church, and he just couldn't stand it. How long ago

has it been Brother Jackson? [Brother Jackson says,

"I had the dream in February of '61."--Ed.]

February of '61 he had the dream. And he come to

me, and he said, "Something is on my heart; I must

tell you, Brother Branham."

I said, "Go on, Brother Jackson."

And he said, "I dreamed a dream," and there it was.

I just set still. And I listened and watched. He said, "I

dreamed that there was a great big hill, like out in a

field where bluegrass, or something was." And said,

"Up on top of this hill, where the water had washed

away the soil, there was a top rock up on top of the

hill; like the--the top of the mountain. It was rock, no

grass. And where the water had washed down, IT

HAD CUT SOME KIND OF READINGS ON THESE

STONES, AND YOU WERE STANDING THERE

INTERPRETING THIS READING ON THESE STONES."

AND SAID, "ALL OF IT..." AND HERE'S THE WAY HE

PUT IT, SAID, "THE BRETHREN FROM GEORGIA, AND

FROM ALL AROUND, WE WERE ALL STANDING

TOGETHER, LISTENING TO YOU INTERPRET THAT

MYSTERIOUS WRITING ON THOSE STONES THAT

MOUNTAIN."

15-1 And said, "Then you picked up something,

like from the air, something like a wrecking bar, or--

or a crowbar," wasn't it, brother? Something like

that, a wrecking bar, real sharp, and said, "How you

done it, I don't know." AND SAID, "YOU STRUCK THE

TOP OF THAT MOUNTAIN, RIPPED IT AROUND, AND

LIFTED THE CAP OF IT OFF. IT WAS IN THE SHAPE OF

A PYRAMID. AND YOU RIPPED THE TOP OF IT OFF."

Now, that was months and months and months

before the pyramid message was preached. AND

SAID, "BENEATH THAT WAS WHITE STONE,

GRANITE, AND YOU SAID, 'THE SUN, OR THE LIGHT,

HAS NEVER SHINED ON THIS BEFORE. LOOK IN ON

THIS. WATCH THIS.'"

And that's right, because in the formation of the

world, the world was formed before there was light.

25

We all know that. God moved upon the water, and-

-and then in the beginning He spoke for light. And

naturally, down under there in the age that

formation was, that light had never come upon that

stone.

15-3 AND HE SAID, "LOOK UPON THIS. LIGHT HAS

NEVER COME UPON IT BEFORE." AND WHEN ALL OF

THEM GOT UP, AND I TOLD THEM TO WATCH THAT,

AND ALL OF THEM COME UP TO LOOK IN. BUT HE

SAID WHILE THEY WERE LOOKING IN, HE LOOKED

OUT OF THE CORNER OF HIS EYE, I BELIEVE IT WAS,

AND WATCHED ME. I slipped off to one side and

started going towards the west, towards the setting

of the sun, coming up a hill, going down a hill,

coming up a hill, going down a hill, getting smaller

and smaller, and went all the way out of sight.

And he said then, when I did that... He said, "Then

the brethren turned around after while, and said,

'Did he vanish? Where did he go?'" And said, "Some

took out that way, some took one way, and some

another, BUT A VERY FEW STAYED AND LOOKED ON

TO WHAT I HAD TOLD THEM."”

“IS.THIS.THE.SIGN.OF.THE.END.SIR_ JEFF.IN V-2 N-

11 SUNDAY_ 62-1230E

47-4 Junie, I want to take your dream. Look, Junior,

before the pyramid was ever preached, months

before it, seen this dream. You say, "What about a

dream."

Nebuchadnezzar dreamed a dream that Daniel

interpreted, told the beginning of the Gentile age,

and when it would leave. And it's done just exactly

that way. Not one bit has failed.

YOU NOTICE, THE WRITING THAT THE--WAS ON THE

ROCKS; I WAS INTERPRETING IT FOR THEM. THEY

WERE ELATED. THAT'S THE MYSTERY OF GOD THAT'S

BEEN NOT UNDERSTOOD FOR YEARS. COULD THAT

BE THAT? AND THEN NOTICE. IN SOME MYSTERIOUS

WAY, WE PICKED UP OUT OF THE AIR A SHARP TOOL

26

THAT OPENED UP THE TOP, AND IN THERE WAS

WHITE GRANITE, BUT IT WASN'T INTERPRETED.

THERE WAS NO LETTERS. I DIDN'T INTERPRET THAT,

JUNIOR. I JUST LOOKED AT IT, AND SAID TO THE

BRETHREN, "LOOK ON THIS," AND THAT'S FULFILLED

TONIGHT. WHILE THEY WERE STUDYING THAT, I

SLIPPED TOWARDS THE WEST. WHAT FOR? MAYBE

TO UNDERSTAND THE INTERPRETATION OF WHAT'S

WRITTEN IN THE TOP OF THIS. COULD IT BE?”

After the sixth dream, brother Branham had a vision. He was on a mountain in Arizona,

Tucson, and saw a constellation of little birds came to him and then fly away eastward; he

saw a second constellation of birds, larger than the first ones, they looked like doves. They

came to him and then fly eastward. These two groups of the birds were representing the

first and the second Pull of WM Branham.

After that, there was a blast that shook all the entire earth. Here came mighty angels from

eternity, in a high speed, a twinkling of an eye and they caught Brother Branham up.

After that vision, brother Branham was really trouble in his mind. He could not understand

the meaning. He thought that was a vision of his death because of the blast! He said no one

could live in such blast.

Brother Branham went in prayers, asking God the meaning of the vision. Firstly he asked

God to give him a sign, to send the power of that vision on him again, if it was about his

death. There was no reaction and no sign. Then brother Branham to send power on him if

it does not mean he was dying but it’s his new ministry coming, and God sent a mighty

power over him. He found himself on a corner with the bible open in roman 9: 33 ‘‘As it is

written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and whosoever

believeth on him shall not be ashamed.’’

No, brother Branham was not going to die! The meaning of the constellation of angels is the

laying of a stublingstone, a Rock of offence in Sion, the city of God. The White stone, a

stumbling rock. Brother Branham asked people to stay and watch that stone but people

don’t like it!

“IS.THIS.THE.SIGN.OF.THE.END.SIR_ JEFF.IN V-2 N-

11 SUNDAY_ 62-1230E

26-4 I could see those Angels, those shaped-back

wings traveling faster than sound could travel. They

27

come from eternity in a split like a twinkling of an

eye, not enough to bat your eye, just a twinkle. They

were there. I didn't have time to count. I didn't have

time, no more than just look. Mighty ones, great

powerful Angels, snow white, wings set in head, and

they were "whew wheeew," [Brother Branham

illustrates--Ed.] and when it did, I was caught up into

this pyramid of constellation. And I thought, "Now,

this is it." I was numbed all over, and I said, "Oh, my.

This means that there will be a blast that will kill me.

I'm at the end of my road now. I mustn't tell my

people when this vision leaves. I don't want them to

know about it, but the heavenly Father has let me

know now that my time is finished. I won't tell my

family so they'll worry about me, because He's fixing

to go and these Angels has come for me, and I'll be

killed pretty soon now in some kind of an explosion."

Then it came to me, while I was in this constellation,

"No, that isn't it. If it would've killed you it would've

killed Joseph, and I could hear Joseph calling me."

Well, then I turned again, and I thought, "Lord God,

what does this vision mean?" And I wondered, and

then it come to me, not a voice, just come to me. Oh,

that is the Angels of the Lord coming to give me my

new commission. And when I thought that, I raised

up my hands, and I said, "O Lord Jesus, what will You

have me do?" And the vision left me. For almost an

hour, I couldn't feel.

27-1 Now, you people know what the blessings of

the Lord is. But the power of the Lord is altogether

different. The power of the Lord in them kind of a

places, I felt it many, many times before in vision,

but never like that. It feels like a reverent fear. I was

so scared till I was paralyzed in the presence of these

Beings. I tell the truth. As Paul said, "I lie not." You

never caught me saying anything wrong about

something like that? Something's fixing to happen.

THEN AFTER WHILE I SAID, "LORD JESUS, IF I'M

GOING TO BE KILLED, LET ME KNOW SO I WON'T

TELL MY PEOPLE ABOUT THIS; BUT IF IT'S

SOMETHING ELSE, LET ME KNOW." THE--NOTHING

ANSWERED.

28

AFTER THE SPIRIT LEFT ME FOR ABOUT A HALF HOUR

I GUESS OR MORE I SAID, "LORD, IF IT IS THEN THAT

I AM GOING TO BE KILLED, AND YOU'RE FINISHED

WITH ME ON EARTH, AND--AND I'M GOING TO BE

TAKEN HOME NOW, WHICH IF THAT'S IT, THAT'S

FINE. THAT'S ALL RIGHT." SO I SAID, "IF IT IS, LET ME

KNOW. SEND YOUR POWER BACK ON ME AGAIN.

THEN I'LL KNOW NOT TO TELL MY PEOPLE, OR

ANYBODY ABOUT IT, BECAUSE YOU'RE FIXING TO

COME CATCH ME AWAY." AND I... AND NOTHING

HAPPENED. AND I WAITED AWHILE. THEN I SAID,

"LORD JESUS, IF IT DID NOT MEAN THAT, AND IT

MEANS THAT YOU'VE GOT SOMETHING FOR ME TO

DO AND IT'LL BE REVEALED TO ME LATER, THEN

SEND YOUR POWER. AND IT ALMOST TOOK ME

FROM THE ROOM.

27-4 I FOUND MYSELF SOMEWHERE OVER IN A

CORNER. I COULD HEAR MY WIFE SOMEWHERE

TRYING TO SHAKE A DOOR. THE DOOR IN THE

BEDROOM WAS LOCKED. AND I HAD A BIBLE OPEN,

AND IT WAS READING... I DON'T KNOW, BUT IT WAS

IN, I BELIEVE, ROMANS THE 9TH CHAPTER, THE LAST

VERSE: "BEHOLD I LAY IN SION A CORNERSTONE, A

STUMBLING STONE, A PRECIOUS CORNERSTONE,

AND WHOSOEVER BELIEVETH ON HIM SHALL NOT

BE ASHAMED." AND I THOUGHT, "IT'S STRANGE I'D

BE READING THAT." (SPIRIT STILL PACKING ME IN

THE ROOM.)

And I closed up the Bible and stood there. I went over

to the window (It was about ten o'clock in the day or

better.), and I raised up my hands, and I said, "Lord

God, I don't understand. This is a strange day to me.

And I'm beside myself almost." And I said, "Lord,

what does that mean? Let me read again, if it be

You." Now, this sounds juvenile. And I took up the

Bible, opened it up. There it was again at the same

place: Paul telling the Jews that they tried to--telling

the Romans that the Jews tried to accept it by works,

but it's by faith that we believe it.”

29

The fist climax was the interpretation of the written part of the Bible; then after that comes

the second climax which is the interpretation of the top of the pyramid, the white stone

with no letters on.

The Message members should keep their eyes on that cap stone, the backside of the Book,

until they got brother Branham interpretation.

We all know the first climax: the forerunning ministry, the preparation Message. This is what

many churches Message preaches: The Holy-ghost Baptismal, restoration of gifts,

reestablishment and all about denominations.

But after we had to lift our eyes and watch the Cap White Stone with no letters? What’s

that means? We need to understand it. And Brother Branham asked up not to move but to

look on it and wait for the interpretation.

This white stone is the seventh seal, a silence.

“REVELATION 8, 1 : AND WHEN HE HAD OPENED

THE SEVENTH SEAL, THERE WAS SILENCE IN HEAVEN

ABOUT THE SPACE OF HALF AN HOUR.”

See? A silence. What does it mean? What’s this Seventh Seal, the Second Climax?

Remember, only few need to know it; only few kept their eyes on that stone.

The large majority don’t care. They are satisfy with the first climax. It’s enough to them.

Brother Branham is only a simple prophet, forerunning the Second coming and that’s all! So

they keep waiting the Second Coming of the Lord until now. 51 years later, after John the

Baptist, still waiting for Jesus! Can you imagine? Strange forerunning ministry!

They fail to wait and see the second climax! The Seventh Seal! The biggest secret!

Remember, in Brother Jackson dream, brother Branham had to go to the west and bring the

revelation of the White stone. The constellation of the seven angels in brother Branham’s

vision was bringing the revelation of that strange stone. BEHOLD, I LAY ON SION A

STUMBLING STONE!

After preaching the sermon ‘‘WHAT TIME IS IT, SIRS?” Branham went to the west and, seven

angels appeared to him has he saw in the vision. These angels came in a terrific speed after

a blast went off and shook all the area!

Let’s read from him

“THE.SEVENTH.SEAL_ JEFF.IN SUNDAY_ 63-0324E

566-1 {313} Notice now, to make it sure to you, so

it could be driven down... I'm fixing to leave you again.

I don't know where I go. I must preach the Gospel

other places. But now, that you might say, "I've heard

all that kind of fanaticism." I don't know what. I can't

judge any other man. I only have to answer to God for

30

what I--for--for myself. But has there ever been one

time I ever told you anything in the Name of the Lord

it wasn't right in all these years? Nobody else can say

so, because I always told it just the way He told it.

Now, let me just show you that this is exactly true and

confirm it. Now, remember, "If there be a spiritual...

or a prophet, I, the Lord, will speak to him in visions

and make known to him by dreams," interpreting

dreams. Is that... Joseph, he could interpret dreams

and speak and--and see visions. Is that true?

566-3 {318} Now, notice this--that now, when this

taken place, Junior was standing in a field that had a-

-had a big pyramid to it like that, and there was

something wrote on the rocks, and I was revealing

that to the people. Is that right, Junior? About a year

before it happened...

And notice the next thing now. I took some kind of a

bar and cut it off, and on the inside was white rock

that had nothing wrote on it. And at that time I

started to the west. And I told them all; I said, "Don't

go out west. Stay here and look on this till I return."

WENT WEST FOR THE BLAST, RETURNED BACK TO

THE EAST WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT INTERPRETING

THIS UNWRITTEN WORD. Now, if that isn't perfectly

the God Almighty, I want you to know what is. What

am I trying to say this for, friends? Is to show you

we're at the end time.”

See? The Holy Spirit interpreting this unwritten word. The Second climax. We both know

that the unwritten word is the White Stone, the white granite.

How did the Holy Spirit interpret that white stone? By the seven angels that came in the

terrific speed in a pyramid shape. That was their ministry; they came to interpret that

mysterious Roc, the stumbling stone, the white Stone in the pyramid. Remember the White

Rock was in the Pyramid and the angels came in the shape of a pyramid. Can you see?

Let’s see how these angels interpret this Whit Stone inside the pyramid! May the Lord open

our understanding now!

Let read Branham!

“THE.SEVENTH.SEAL_ JEFF.IN MONDAY_ 63-0324E

577-3 {402} The seven Angels... I was in the west.

You remember the little bitty messengers; they went

east. The second messengers, the doves (little bit

larger bird), they went east. And now, I looked...

They was with me all the time. That was that first

and second pull. Now, the third came from the west

sweeping forward with great terrific speed, and they

picked me up. That was coming back east with the

mystery of these Seven Seals, just like it said in--in

Junior Jackson's dream that the Lord let me interpret

for him there.

ON THE INSIDE OF THAT PYRAMID, THERE WAS

WHITE STONE THAT WASN'T WRITTEN ON. THAT'S

THE REASON I HAD TO GO WEST TO CONNECT WITH

THESE ANGEL'S MESSAGE TO COME BACK HERE TO

REVEAL IT TO THE CHURCH. You remember, I said,

"The next things that happen will be here at the

church." That's just exactly.

578-1 {405} Another thing, I want you to notice

what taken place, And if you're listening to the tape

of the "What Time Is It, Sir?" you will notice that one

Angel was very notable to me. The rest of them just

was--seemed ordinarily; but this Angel was a noted

Angel. He was to my left in the constellation in a

form of a pyramid. And you remember, it was in the

pyramid where the mysterious white rock was not

written on. AND THE ANGELS TOOK ME INTO THAT

PYRAMID OF THEMSELVES, THE MYSTERIES OF GOD

KNOWN ONLY TO THEM. AND NOW, THEY WITH THE

MESSENGERS THAT COME TO INTERPRET THAT

PYRAMID OR THAT MESSAGE OF THE SECRET OF

THESE SEVEN SEALS WHICH LAYS WITH INSIDE THE

PYRAMID.

Can you catch something there? The Rock was inside the pyramid and these mighty angels

came in a pyramid shape and caught Brother Branham up into that Pyramid! There was

nothing written on that rock inside the Pyramid but angels took Branham into that place!

See? The Interpretation: a Man placed on the White Stone!

Let’s see in the Old Testament! The Prophet Zechariah talked about a mysterious stone and

God promised to engrave writings himself and the iniquity will be removed. Nothing was

engraved on that rock.

32

“ZECHARIAH 3, 9: FOR BEHOLD THE STONE THAT I

HAVE LAID BEFORE JOSHUA; UPON ONE STONE

SHALL BE SEVEN EYES: BEHOLD, I WILL ENGRAVE THE

GRAVING THEREOF, SAITH THE LORD OF HOSTS,

AND I WILL REMOVE THE INIQUITY OF THAT LAND IN

ONE DAY.”

The Angels engraved WM Branham on the mysterious stone.

Brother Branham asked us to look at that stone even to have it! To look at it until we can

see a Man being engraved there. That’s the mystery of the Seventh Seal.

In the Book of revelation, the Bible talks about that stone.

“REVELATION 2, 17: He that hath an ear, let him

hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches; To him

that overcometh will I give to eat of the hidden

manna, AND WILL GIVE HIM A WHITE STONE, AND

IN THE STONE A NEW NAME WRITTEN, which no

man knoweth saving he that receiveth it.”

That’s the second climax, the seventh seal, Christ! God Himself! Only few get this white

stone and can see the name written there.

What’s the Seventh Seal? Let’s read!

“A GUIDE JEFFERSONVILLE

IN 62-1014E 97

35 And the Holy Spirit always speaks of the Word.

"I've got many things to tell you, you cannot

understand it now, but when He comes, He'll guide

you to it." That's the reason the coming of the Seals.

AT THE FINISHING OF THE SEVENTH SEAL, THE

MYSTERY OF GOD SHOULD BE FINISHED TO KNOW

WHO GOD IS, WHAT HE IS, HOW HE LIVES, HIS

NATURE, HIS BEING. You're supposed to be all the

way up here by that time (See?), bring us into the full

statue of sons and daughters of God, a Church that's

washed in the Blood of Christ, that's bought without

money, is paid for by the Blood of Jesus Christ.”

33

The second climax of Brother Branham is Christ Ministry! Christ Branham.

Brother I can be talking like this for long but I will let you study this first and if you have any

question, feel free to ask me!

God bless you!
