Lord's finished


    I'll be gone someday when the    Lord's finished with me here on the earth

GOD'S.CHOSEN.PLACE.WORSHIP  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-7  65-0220
  I've stood here now for some thirty years around the city here and screamed this same Message. I'm getting old. I can't be with you too much longer. But remember, in the day of Judgment, my voice is recorded, and it'll speak out against you.  …And that's supposed to be the Message of the hour, to restore back the hearts of the children back to the faith that was once delivered to the saints.

HARVEST.TIME  PHOENIX.AZ  V-18 N-6  64-1212
  Excuse this, but I want you to know the Truth. And I haven't got much time left, you know that, I'm fifty-five. But these tapes will live when I'm gone, and you'll see whether it's right, or not, if I be a true servant or a false prophet.

POSSESSING.ALL.THINGS  JEFF.IN  V-10 N-4  62-0506
  And I remember the vision of the Lord not long ago. Do you remember me telling it here? The sweetness of the Lord that morning, said, "Do not fear whatever, wherever to go, or what, for the never-failing Presence of Jesus Christ is with you wherever you go." So he can't, Satan can't kill me until God says "it's finished." 1 See? He might try it, but he'll never succeed in doing it.

ONE.IN.A.MILLION  LA.CA  V-18 N-1  65-0425M
  …"Father, I pray Thee that Thou will in somehow help me, give me strength, for the hour that I'm now facing. And if my work is finished here on earth, then I must come to You.

  John, his destiny was met like this. He was caught and boiled in a vat of grease for twenty-four hours, of hot boiling grease, and without any harm coming to him. And they put him on the isle, as commonly believed, as a witch, "He bewitched the grease so it wouldn't burn him," they said. 'Course, it was the power of God, that... You can't boil the Holy Spirit out of a man. Why, so they tried to boil It out of him, but God wouldn't permit it. And He had a work for him to do. And until God was finished with His man, there's nothing in the world can bother him. That's all.

WAY.OF.A.TRUE.PROPHET  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-14  62-0513M
  I want to thank each and every one of you all for your prayers for me while I... You know, I had a little explosion down on the range down there. And Satan tried to kill me and--and a... 'Course he couldn't do it; God wasn't through with me yet. So he just can't do it until it's all over. When God's finished, then I'm ready.

LEADERSHIP  COVINA.CA  V-7 N-7  65-1207
  Now, I don't want to hurt you. And this is not a joke, this is THUS SAITH THE LORD from the Scriptures. It's exactly true, friend. I'm an old man, I haven't got much longer to stay, but I've got to tell you the Truth. If this is my last message, it's the Truth. See?

ANOINTED.ONES.AT.END.TIME  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-3  65-0725M
  Now, care all this Message. And when you listen to the tape--even maybe I'll be gone someday when the Lord's finished with me here on the earth--you'll refer back to this. 2   Listen to my voice, what I'm telling you. If He takes me before His coming, just remember, I've spoke to you in the Name of the Lord by the Word of the Lord.

WHAT.DOES.THOU.HERE  JEFF.IN  59-0301E
  And no matter how much we cry out and think this, that, or the other, nothing can take us until God is finished with us.

This statement does not lend itself to the idea that Brother Branham will come back  again “to earth” to finish his commission.

EASTER.SEAL  PHOENIX.AZ  V-2 N-6  65-0410
  Death won't bother that quickening power at all. "Though the skin worms destroys this body, yet in my flesh shall I see God." Glory to God. What a... I don't know what to say... What a hope for an old man like me, knowing I see my end time right out yonder soon, as fifty-six years old.

ONLY.ONE.TRUE.LIVING.CHURCH 51-0727
Master, it seems that my life is dwindling away from me. I don't know how much longer You'll let me be here on this earth. But I pray for many years, if You can use me. But when Thou art finished with me, may I come to You. But I know that I shall be able to stay until I have completed the work that You've foreordained that should be done.

LIFE EVERETT.MA 58-0512
If you want an appointment with me, as soon as life is over, and it's all finished, there's a... Where the river of Life comes out from under the Throne, and comes down, this way, and goes around the mountain of--of salvation, and there--where the trees are on either side of the mountain; over on that side, there's a choir sings. All the great voices sing over there. There'll be Sankey, and all of them over there singing.
And over on this other side, there's this little tree; I'll be setting under that tree listening. So now... That's where I want to be to hear that great, Angelic choir join in with the mortals. But you know, I was thinking, that the Angels, when Jesus comes... And one singing I want to be at, the great singing, is to hear the times that when we stand upon this earth and sing the songs of redemption.

“when my life, my body … will be back in the dust of the earth”

UNCHANGEABLE.GOD  PHOENIX.AZ  62-0120
  I'm glad I got faith in Him tonight that someday when my life, my body with its sixteen elements will be back in the dust of the earth. But He will say, "William Branham." and I'll come forth. He will breathe the breath of life into it and say, "There you are." He will bypass the birth--birth of (See?), my mother and so forth. Like Jesus on his first miracle, He turned water into wine. Eventually it would've been wine, but He bypassed all that procedure, and said, "Turn the water to wine." At the resurrection, 3 He will not say, "Mr. and Mrs. Branham get married again and bring forth William." He will speak, and I'll come forth. Amen.

JESUS.CHRIST.THE.SAME  SALEM.OR  62-0718
 No matter, I've turned back to cosmic light, and whatever I may be, He will speak and I'll come forth on that day because I believe Him. Amen. That's right. Resurrection... Raise me up in the last day, He said He'd lose nothing; "I'll raise it up again in the last day." Sure.

PRESENT.STAGE.OF.MY.MINISTRY  JEFF.IN  V-11 N-2  62-0908
   But, God, if--if--if I have to seal my testimony with my own life, or whatever it is to be done, Lord, crown it then, not crown me; crown the ministry that I've preached, Lord, it's Your Word. And I know that Word is more than able to raise me up again at the resurrection.

HARVEST.TIME PHOENIX.AZ 64-1212
God bless you. And I hope to see you again next Sunday, and if I can't see you... or next Saturday. If I don't see you then, see you down at Tucson. If not then, I'll see you back here the seventeenth. If not then, I'll see you in Glory.

Brother Branham described exactly when he would come back in the event of death overtaking him.at the resurrection”And when he would see us again, …in Glory, not at a future tent meeting.

GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.OF.WORSHIP  LA.CA  V-18 N-2  65-0425E
  And God has already raised us up, potentially. The quickening power that raised us from a life of sin, and changed our being, it has potentially raised us up in Christ Jesus, which, the resurrection will bring us forth in the fully maturity.

STATURE.OF.A.PERFECT.MAN  JEFF.IN  V-2 N-18  62-1014M
  He's built a complete church in His image. And at the resurrection this complete Body will be raised up to live with Him forever, because it is a Bride. See? So that cuts in every age, every age that comes.

WHY.LITTLE.BETHLEHEM  PHOENIX.AZ  V-9 N-9  63-1214
  Bury me in Jesus, for those that are in Christ will God bring with Him in that resurrection. And I don't care what the world's got to say, how much they try to tinselize things. It's in Christ, those that are in Christ that God will bring with Him. The spiritual mind catches those spiritual things.

FIFTH.SEAL.THE  JEFF.IN  63-0322
   All right, to the believers... Notice, the first Elijah, that was him. The second was Elisha. The third was John. The fourth was the seventh angel or the last messenger to the church, according to Malachi 4 and Revelations 10:7. Now, the fifth time, he is a messenger to the Jews, to the hundred and forty-four thousand, to the Jews after the Church is gone. 4  

PRESENCE.OF.GOD.UNRECOGNIZED  TPK.KS  V-20 N-2  64-0618
  Now, in the days of the prophets, what happened? They did the same thing. They didn't recognize them till they had done come, ministry had finished took out of that the Elected, and then after they were gone they recognized that there had been a prophet among them.

4   The spirit of Elijah is sent a total of 5 times. Only once does it appear to the Gentiles.
UNVEILING OF GOD … all the mysteries of God should be made known IN that Elijah”.




We'll ride this trail again

GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.WORSHIP  SHP.LA  V-7 N-4  65-1128M
  The shuck's pulling away so the wheat can lay out there now. See? So just keep reverent; keep praying. See? Remember, they that wait upon the Lord, renew their strength. Now, there's... I was getting pretty old, and I thought, "Will I... Will there be another revival, I'll see another time?" And just remember, from the west will come a white horse rider. We'll ride this trail again. That's right. Soon as we get ready. It's a promise.

LEAN.NOT.ON.UNDERSTANDING  PHOENIX.AZ  V-19 N-3  65-0120
  Oh, people, don't think I... You may think I'm crazy. But when my voice is silenced in death, these tapes will still be playing, and you'll recognize that what I've said has come to pass.

KNOWETH.IT.NOT  JEFF.IN  V-2 N-10  65-0815
  And I know that after my going away from this earth them tapes and them books will be living on, 5   and many of you young children will find in the days to come that this is exactly the truth, because I speak it in the Name of the Lord.

KNOWETH.IT.NOT  JEFF.IN  V-2 N-10  65-0815
  …a great white military horse walking in a prance." That's the Word, of course, you know it, walking in a prance.

5 We know the “white horse rider” was Brother Branham,  and the “horse” was the Word.  His message has continued as promised.  Note: We’ll ride this trail….

QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS  JEFF.IN  COD  61-0112
  But this message that I'm preaching is the true message of this day, and it's the last message. You see what I'm doing, brethren? I'm putting you all the same place I am, 'cause you're just as much into it as I am. You are messengers of this same message.



KNOWETH.IT.NOT  JEFF.IN  V-2 N-10  65-0815
  "That horse, standing there like a military horse, with a prance like this, walking, me standing still. And said, "You pulled on the reins, went riding off towards the west."
Said, "I looked down there and there was a whole lot of scientists." The next morning (That was Saturday.)--on the next morning I preached on scientists, you know, being of the Devil.
And he said, "Scientists there were pouring things in tubes and mixing them." Said, "You stopped the horse, raised up your hands and begin to scream: `I'll ride this trail once more.'" Said, "The whole earth shook. Them people shook," said, "looked up at one another, like that, looked up to you, and just shrugged their shoulders, and went on with their scientific research."  7
And said, "You started going on towards the west

   See, you must realize then, friend, what condition you're in. That's the reason this tape, I said, "to church only," see, "to church only." If you've been called from light... from darkness unto Light, from death unto Life; from a formal, intellection conception of Christ, to a born-again experience; and watching your life, that it lays the things of the world aside, and you stand for Christ, regardless; then something's happened.

Brother Branham re-tells a spiritual dream that a brother had concerning Brother Branham. In the dream, Brother Branham, was mounted upon a white horse representing “the Word,” or his message.  It is clear to me that his statement, “I'll ride this trail once more,” is the continuation of his tapes and books, verbatim, exactly as he preached them; going on after his death. It is also a solemn warning to those who have allowed denominational, intellectual, and  “scientific” teachings to creep into the message.  Notice how in the dream, these scientific minded men, (busy mixing things together, i.e. their intellectual conceptions with the Word) barely have their attention arrested when Brother Branham spoke, “I'll ride this trail once more.” It is a perfect type of many who teach erroneous Message doctrine. When they are confronted and pointed back to the books and tapes, they simply “shrug.” All mysteries, doctrines, and teachings were totally clarified by Brother Branham,  yet they go right on, with a mixture or  concoction of their own reasoning and the Word.

TESTIMONY  SHREVEPORT.LA  V-17 N-5  63-1128M
  The tape ministry is a worldwide thing, everywhere. I think it's one way God has got scattering the Message back into the heathen lands, back in where that it has to be translated.

WORKS.IS.FAITH.EXPRESSED  SHREVEPORT.LA  V-7 N-1  65-1126 
Let them understand, dear God. Faith, I believe it, because It's revealed by Your Spirit through the Word of God and has been vindicated and made manifest to the whole world. Certainly, Lord, in the minority, always your groups are that way. But You said, "Fear not, little flock; it's your Father's good will to give you the Kingdom."
So I pray, God, that men will look away from their intellects, will look away from what they might think is right, and look into the Scripture.

INVISIBLE.UNION.OF.THE.BRIDE  SHP.LA  V-2 N-15  65-1125
  What did Satan pregnate Eve with? To disbelieve the Word for intellectuals, intellects, and it ruined the whole creation. That's exactly what she's done in the Word today, the church.

PARADOX.A  CHICAGO.IL  V-21 N-3  63-0801
  Watch when that Light hit those priests and all their intellects. What happened? They said, "He is Beelzebub, a fortuneteller, a devil."
He said, "You are of your father, the devil." That's where it come from.

GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.WORSHIP  SHP.LA  V-7 N-4  65-1128M
  "Seven days, eat unleavened bread." No leaven shall be found amongst the Bride, no--no word added, no nothing. Remember, one word caused every death that's in the earth; every illegitimate child was borned because Eve, the first church, the bride of the first Adam, doubted God's Word and accepted a denominational, or a intellectual, or a school exceptions of it; because It was reasoned out, that "Surely, God is a good God." God is a good God, but He's also a just God. He must keep His Word.



INVISIBLE.UNION.OF.THE.BRIDE  SHP.LA  V-2 N-15  65-1125
  The Pentecostal church by no means, by no means could carry out the last day message in its present condition. Could it? Why, it can't even agree on one or two words in the Bible. How you going to do it? It can't do it. So you see, denomination's out. That's right. It is going to be a elected people, that's elected for it.
Now, note. And so everyone of us know that the whole rank of denominationals, Pentecostal, and all, are dead; that is to the born again Christians of the Message. See? Your first husband is dead. You know he's dead. God let it die. It's finished. All of its scientific intellectual, educational, scientific ways of its so-called Bible schools and things is perished. What's it done? Separated. Oneness here and trinities here, and twoness here, and over here, and down here, such a mess up and call themselves, "Pentecostals."

INVISIBLE.UNION.OF.THE.BRIDE  SHP.LA  V-2 N-15  65-1125
  So we know they're dead. God let it die in its own selfish, scientific, educational programs. …
You think I am trying to support ignorance? I'm not. I'm telling you there is a difference between this intellectual age, that we're living in, where the church has been pregnated with science and all these so-called figured out and everything. You don't figure out God. Well, them--them priests had God figured out so perfect; they knowed how the Messiah was going to come. But He come so different from what they had figured out; it wasn't scientific. "How could this man, being an illegitimate child... Where did he go to school at? Where'd his education come from? Where'd he get this learning? Why, you try to teach us? You're born in fornications." Oh, for goodness sake.

INVISIBLE.UNION.OF.THE.BRIDE  SHP.LA  V-2 N-15  65-1125
  Now, now, we notice: then that Life being in you, God's Life being in you from the foundation of the world... Now, now, you cannot mix denomination creed with the Word, because they're too contrary, one to the other. That's exactly what Satan tried to do with his intellectual conceptions to Eve.
               
GOD'S.POWER.TO.TRANSFORM  PHOENIX.AZ  V-16 N-5  65-0911
  The Word is being put together for to be transformed from the ground to the skies. Seeing the structure of the thing; but with their intellectual conceptions, laughed in the face of the prophet, Noah, when he was prophesying of the end time. But what did... That structure was made of the Word of God, pitched inside and out with prayer and faith. When the rains come, all the intellectual conceptions of religions died and rotted right in the--right in their churches, right upon the earth. And the ark floated above it all. The scientific spray seed rotted right in judgment.

INVISIBLE.UNION.OF.THE.BRIDE  SHP.LA  V-2 N-15  65-1125
  …just illegitimate to the Word as Cain was.
…Just as illegitimate as Cain was. That's the kind of child he brought forth from Eve. They got away from the Word, and then, see what she brought? That's just exactly what the church has brought: the same thing. Can prove it to you by the Word. And that's where education and civilization come through Cain. That's exactly right. For they claim... But they--they claim to be sons of God, but they're denominational-bred, denominational schooled scholars, everything else. That's exactly right. Subtle, smart, my, so was the serpent, their father. That's right. Just as subtle and scientific, preachers as Cain was. See? It's exactly the same thing.

INVISIBLE.UNION.OF.THE.BRIDE  SHP.LA  V-2 N-15  65-1125
  Now, we're closing in saying this: Finish up the great commission, how could they do it? We know they're dead. God let it die in its scientific age all of it's so... So He could do what? Open up the Seven Sealed mystery to the undenominational Bride. How can a denomination accept those Seven Seals when it's absolutely contrary? Serpent's seed and all those other things, the whole full Seven Mysteries is contrary to what they've been taught, because they took the old school from the Bible school. And the Seven Seals of God, when it was opened on the mountain... God, let me die right now in this pulpit if that ain't the Truth.

SATAN'S.EDEN  JEFF.IN  V-2 N-20  65-0829
  Now, by unbelief in all of God's Word has brought the seed of unholiness in Satan's Eden. We are now entering in where Satan is taking the throne as the antichrist in a Eden of this earth, a Eden of sin, perverted religion. He started, not upon: "I am Satan. I am the great angel." No, not upon that, but upon perverting God's Word. And that's how he's brought his kingdom in every age. And now in this great deceitful age, ready to take his throne by his people. He's built himself an intellectual, educated, scientific Eden. Right. Scientific preachers, scientific church, scientific theology--everything is scientific. Everything's on basis of knowledge. The whole church is built upon knowledge. It ain't built upon faith.

LEADERSHIP  COVINA.CA  V-7 N-7  65-1207
  Where is those men of integrity? Where are they at? They're so soft, and through intellectual conceptions and things, till they're not here no more. O God, have mercy upon us.

UNFAILING.WORDS.OF.PROMISE  PHOENIX.AZ  V-15 N-3  64-0120
  The Word always corrects the error. And if people could only see it today, the Word corrects the error. The whole thing is becoming an error. But God's Word is what's right. He said, "Heavens and earth will pass away, but My Word shall not pass away."
And the Word that's prophesied for this day corrects the error of the day. You understand? The Word Itself corrects the error. The people today, say, "Oh, let's join this. Let's go to the council. Let's do all these things." That's a error. And the Word comes back and corrects that error by identifying Itself, the hour, and the time of the hour. Now, we know those things are true.

DOING.GOD.A.SERVICE  JEFF.IN  V-4 N-8  65-0718M
  So say I in the Name of Jesus Christ. Don't you add one thing.
Don't take--put your own ideas in It. You just say what is said on those tapes.


PERGAMEAN.CHURCH.AGE  JEFF.IN  ROJC 229-285  60-1207
  And all these that we're seeing, that's got the spiritual ministry, that early church turned down. The--the Nicolaitane church turned it down, because of these things they were spiritual. And as I've drawed here, the church was being squeezed out, and the Nicolaitane doctrine was in the--was in the majority; and the true church was in the minority, has always been.

SMYRNAEAN.CHURCH.AGE  JEFF.IN  ROJC 185-227  60-1206
And if you're not into that Bride, into this little bunch of minorities, way down here today being squeezed out by creeds, and denominations, and so forth, if--if--if you're not in that little group... Now, you don't have to join this Tabernacle; you don't have to join anything. You just have to be borned into that Kingdom.

SEED.NOT.HEIR.WITH.SHUCK  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-4  65-0218
Notice, see how close it looks. Matthew said--St. Matthew 24:24, said that the two spirits in the last days, the church spirit of the church people and the Bride Spirit of the Bride people, would be so close together till it would deceive the very Elected if it was possible. That's how close.

93-1 EPHESIAN.CHURCH.AGE  -  CHURCH.AGE.BOOK.CPT.3
See how it started out in the early church. It was called deeds. Then it became a doctrine. It became the standard. It became the unbending way. It finally took over and God was pushed aside. Oh, it started so small, so quietly, so inoffensively. It looked so good. It seemed so sound. Then it caught a hold, and like a python, it squeezed out the very breath and killed all the spirituality there was in the church. Oh, that false vine is subtle. It is like an angel of light until it gets a hold on you. Now I want to say that I believe in leadership. But it is not the leadership of men I believe in. I believe in the leadership of the Holy Ghost coming through the Word. I believe also, that God has set men in the church, men who are gifted by the Spirit; and they will keep the church in order. I believe that. I believe also that the church is ruled over by men that God sends to take charge. But that rule is BY THE WORD, so that it is not men really ruling but the SPIRIT OF GOD, for the Word and Spirit are ONE.

  We've had fifteen years of revival, it's never been known in all history. And watch, in this fifteen-years revival, It swept around the world, and not one organization has been built out of It. Where was It? (It started the latter rain, it died in its... instant, it died.) There's been no organization follow This. Why? It's the grain Itself, there can be no more. And the shuck now is pulling away, no cooperation, nobody wants you. Why is it? It has to be That.

    And after the sign went forth, and the Voice following, and the churches begin to turn me down and close their doors, upon Doctrine, that any of them is daresn't to stand before me to say It's right or wrong. I challenge any of them. Uh-huh. Not to be smart, but I know where I'm at. That's right. What did they do? What did they do? They shut every door. "Now, what are you going to do?" The other day, up on the mountain, I was standing there. I said, "Lord, I got one open door in the whole nation, [1] as far as I know, that's Phoenix, Arizona. The only one I got." And I started down off the mountain. Just as plain as I ever heard anybody speak, said, "What's that to thee? Follow thou Me." 

WHAT.DOES.THOU.HERE  JEFF.IN  59-0301E
Lead me there, Lord. Get me quiet. I'm nervous. I'm all upset. I've done everything that You told me to do, as far as I know. I've crossed the nation and around the world, preaching, and crying, and persuading. And You've been faithful to throw out that sign of the Messiah to show that it's You, Lord, that's a doing it and not a man. I'm thankful for that. But, Lord, I'm under the juniper tree tonight. I'm wondering, why don't they repent? Why can't this America see it, Lord? Has her senses so dull, is the church so organized so tight... And they won't cooperate. They won't do nothing but criticize.
But I'm just as sure tonight, as it was by Elijah under the tree; You've got seven thousand yet that hasn't bowed their knee to Baalim.

EVENTS.MADE.CLEAR.BY.PROPHECY  JEFF.IN  V-12 N-3  65-0801E
Now, every time that the church gets mixed up (and God foreknew they would, for He foreknew all things), therefore He has His certain prophet ready for that age, to call His electing by His a-vindicated Word of signs and wonders, and confirmation of His Word, "confirming the Word with signs following," as He promised. He gives the true interpretation after the prophet himself has been vindicated.
All but those, the elected to whom he is sent, hate him. Now, examine every instant and see if that's right or not. Only the ones that He's sent to! "He came to His Own and His Own received Him not; but as many as did receive Him, to them gave He the power to become sons of God." Notice, no... every examination of the Word, in every instance, and at the end of every age or climax or junction, as I preached on it many times.
Look at the age of Noah, at the climax before judgment. What happened? Noah, it was only his own family that believed the man. The rest of them criticized him. And destroyed the whole world. In the days of Abraham, only Abraham's group that believed. When the angels went and preached to Sodom, only Lot and his wife and two daughters come out, and she turned back to a pillar of salt. In the days of Moses, only the elected of Israel come out. And Pharaoh hated him. In the days of Elijah, everything (almost) but seven thousand man, every one of them hated him, the whole nation.
In the days of Jeremiah, why, they throwed unripe fruit at him, and called him a fanatic, because he laid on his side for so many days, and the other side, and--and taken things and made symbols. They hated him. Isaiah the prophet, he condemned that race so much till they sawed him in two with a saw. Right.
John the Baptist. "He was a wild man down there, some screaming maniac." All but--but those disciples that he presented to Jesus Christ as a church, "There it is!" John made ready a people. How many did he have? You could count them on both fingers... both hands, your fingers, how many that John presented to Jesus when He come. Now, what about His second Coming? Think of it. But when the true Bible believers see the Word so openly vindicated for the age, they believe. There's no way to keep them from It, believe It. They even seal their testimony with their blood. They believe It. It's then it's to them, the predestinated, that for that certain age that sees and believes. Others just can't see It, they're blinded.

But these tapes will live when I'm gone, and you'll see whether it's right, or not, if I be a true servant or a false prophet. I've never told you nothing yet but what happened, so will this happen.
It's a carrier. It had to be. But when that wheat begins to grow, like the church first was a carrier to Jesus, but when He begin to tell them the Truth of God, they separated from Him. Now what's happening? No cooperation. Why? It has to be that way, so that the wheat itself can lay before the sun, s-u-n, and so the spiritual wheat can lay before the S-o-n, to be turned to a golden grain of the Word, see, made Word, God made flesh, vindicated.

There is the Seven Seals, or the opening of these mysteries. And you try to get it before those denominations. Contrary to what they... Brother, they close up like a clam, but they've always done it. But it's season.  How many knows that this is the seventh church age? Say "Amen." [Congregation says, "Amen!"--Ed.] The Laodicean age, a lukewarm that God spues out of His mouth, and they spue God out of their mouth? There's not another age in the Bible where Jesus was found on the outside trying to knock, get back in. They put Him out, no cooperation. Who is Jesus? The Word. The Word was put out. The husks throwed out the wheat. He said, "I stand at the door and knock, and any man in those shackles out there would hear My Voice." O God, have mercy on us.

…"To think that a man would stand up and say a thing like that, `Except you people eat My Flesh, and drink My Blood.'" Said, "This is a human vampire, see, `Eat My Flesh and drink... `
Why, he's a cannibal. You good thinking people will... you'll get away from such a lunatic as that."
He never explained It, He just said It! He did it to stumble them, to separate His sheep from goats. He did it to throw them off. And then nobody wanted to cooperate with Him. They had no cooperation from then on.

LEAN.NOT.ON.UNDERSTANDING  PHOENIX.AZ  V-19 N-3  65-0120
And neither does the people today realize what condition that they are in. It's ordained for this Laodicea church to be in this condition, putting Christ on the outside. And Him knocking, trying to get back in, [Brother Branham knocks five times on the pulpit--Ed.], no cooperation nowhere, though. Vindicating His Word in the day now, like He did in every day, and they walk right away from it. Leaning to their own understanding, that's--that's all there is to it.

GOD.IDENTIFYING.HIMSELF  DENHAM.SP.LA  64-0320
That's the way the spirits are in the last day. They're somewhat alike, but they have a characteristic that identifies them. One is right, and the other one is wrong. And it can be identified by its characteristic.
The Spirit of God can be identified by its characteristic. See the Spirit of God, and the spirit of the church. There's a church spirit. And the Spirit of God that's absolutely not like the church spirit at all. There's a denominational spirit.

Now, the Lord cannot sit down a Book of rules and say a Word, and then come around and deny It. And if you say you got the Holy Ghost, and the Bible says a certain thing to do, and you say, "Oh, I don't believe That." You just remember, that spirit in you is not the Holy Spirit, 'cause He can't deny Himself. That's right. He can't deny Himself. He wrote the Word, and He watches over It, to perform It. See? So it's not the Holy...It's a spirit, all right. It might be a--a spirit of the church. It might be the spirit of the pastor. It might be the spirit of the world. It might be. I don't know what it is, but, whatever it is, it might be a denominational spirit,…

Notice, not false Jesuses, false christs. They believe they're anointed, but they know they're not Jesus. See? That's too plain. If men went up and said today, "Look at the scars in my hand. Look at on my brow, I am Jesus"; well now, we know that that's wrong. And remember, Jesus never said that them guy's would appear. He said there'd appear false christs: christs, plural, denominations and so forth, anointed ones, anointed with a denominational spirit and not the Word. You follow it? Not false Jesus, false christs, false anointed ones. See? Oh, how plainly, how we... Surely you won't miss it.

GOING.BEYOND.THE.CAMP  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-3  64-0719E
  Notice. And His prophecy of Revelations 3 found when He come in this last day, as He prophesied He'd come in this last day... And how did He find the church at Laodicea? Rich, have need of nothing, and set as a queen, and can see no sorrow, and put Him outside the church, had no use for Him. He went without the camp again. But then she didn't know that she was naked, blind, and miserable, and knew it not.
…Again, if He'd come again in the same way as He was then,  What would they do with Him? Put Him out the camp. They sure wouldn't cooperate with Him. No, sir.

GOING.BEYOND.THE.CAMP  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-3  64-0719E
Now, we find Him again in this day as the Bible said He would, put out the camp. For He ever remains the same, the Word, same yesterday, today, and forever.

GOING.BEYOND.THE.CAMP  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-3  64-0719E
…He rebuked them, and they put Him out of their camp. Jesus suffered without the camp. They put Him out of the camp, outside, way beyond their camp. We find out that the Bible said in this last day under this Laodicean Age they'd do the same thing. They would be put out of the camp (Now, watch what He says to do now in closing.)--put out of the camp where the sacrifices was burned. That's where He belonged; He was the Sacrifice.
Now, brother, sister, do you know that each one of you all must sacrifice, you must be God's sacrifice, sacrifice the things of the world, sacrifice your own pleasures of this world, sacrifice the things of the world? You know the reason that people won't do it?
You know, a sheep--a sheep don't have but one thing to--to offer, and that's wool. And now, he's not asked to produce or to manufacture some wool for this year; he's asked to--to bear wool. We're not asked to manufacture something; we're asked to bear the fruit of the Spirit. That is, the inside of the sheep... What he is on the inside, makes the wool on the outside. And when a man has got Christ on the inside, it makes him Christ-like on the outside, not some artificial put-on.  Well, we find when that takes place, when Christ comes back, how is He treated? Just exactly like it was at the beginning. Always has been.
So He so rebuked them, that they put them out of His camp and made Him as a sinner; which He became sin for us. Now, after hundreds of years, yes, 'most two thousand years, He's visit their camp again according to His promised Word that He'd do in the last days. He's visit the camp again. He's visit the camp to manifest this Word today, just like He visit back in that day, and He did in Moses' day. That was not Moses doing that; Moses was a man; it was Christ.

We're inside of Christ. Now, as then, all true believers see Him, the Word of promise of this day openly manifested. That's a big word if you can get it. See, see? All true believers that's in the Word see God openly; the veil's rent, and God stands openly before you, manifested. See? God, manifested openly... In order to do this our old denomination traditional veil must be rent again.
In order to really see what it is, you've got to come out from among that stuff. See? You'll never do it; they'll keep pulling that veil before you every time: "Oh, there's nothing to that." But here it is written, and here it is made manifest. You see, see?

GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.OF.WORSHIP  LA.CA  V-18 N-2  65-0425E
Now, to back it up, we could take the entire Bible to back up what I'm going to say. For, the place that He chose is in Christ, in Jesus Christ. It is in Him, His Son; God's Son, Jesus Christ.…under the sacrifice of His Own Son! That's God's only provided place. There is where people can meet God, is in Christ. That is His provided place.

Now, after four hundred years God walked right among them one day. According to the Scripture He was to be made flesh and dwell among them. "His Name shall be call Counseller, Prince of Peace, Mighty God, Everlasting Father." And when He came among the people, they said, "We'll not have this man rule over us. What--what fellowship card does he pack? What denomination sent him?" He had no cooperation; every church He went to, they throwed Him out. They had nothing to do with Him, because He wasn't one of them.
And as it was then, so is it now. The Bible said the Laodicean church would put Him on the outside, and He was knocking trying to get in. There's something wrong somewhere.
Now, why? They had made their own camp. They... If they would've knowed the Word, they'd have knowed Who He was.

LUKE 6:22
22    Blessed are ye, when men shall hate you, and when they shall separate you [from their company], and shall reproach [you], and cast out your name as evil, for the Son of man's sake.

There won't be any denomination; you just remember. Brother Jack here's a historian; many of you here are. There's never been a revival but about three years after the revival they start a denomination on it. Is that right? And this last great miracle move of God in this last days, it's went twenty years; and it's a million miles from a denomination, going further away all the time; the shuck's pulling away, no cooperation, no nothing with it. See? Always it pulls away from it. There can't be no more, it's a wheat now. But we're plenty green. Uh-huh. That's right. Have to lay in the Presence of the Son to be mellowed up; that's all of it. Plenty green; we haven't got the sincerity, the sacredness, the thing we ought to have in our midst to know that the Spirit of the living God, moving in His Word and showing us the things yet.

I don't care what your church believes in. If it's contrary to the Word of God, stay away from it. The Bible said, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever." Mark 16 said, "These signs would follow them that believe." If a church preaches different from that don't... You--you die to that thing; be born again into the Word of God. "Go ye into all the world, and preach the Gospel to every creature." That's how far it was to go. "These signs shall follow them that believe in all the world and to every creature that will believe."

The Bible said in Malachi 4 what would happen today, Revelation 10, how the Seven Seals would be open and reveal all these mysteries that's been hid through these reformers. He said how it would be done. It's in the Bible, THUS SAITH THE LORD. God has completely, perfectly identified that and a-vindicated It to be the Truth by signs, wonders in the heavens and the skies, and everything else for thirty-three years. You think they'll listen to it? No, they're dead.

They ought to seen it, them Jews in their day, when they seen it manifested there before them as a prophet said He was. He said, "Search the Scriptures; in them you think you have Eternal Life. They are They that testify of Me. If I do not the works of My Father, don't believe Me; but though you can't believe Me, do the--believe the works that I've done." 
They said, "Our father's eat manna in the wilderness for forty years. We know where we're at."
He said, "And they are everyone dead." That's eternally separated.

GOD.OF.THIS.EVIL.AGE  JEFF.IN  65-0801M
Say, "How do you know it's right?" God proves it right. He vindicates it. He said it here in the Word, then He proves it. That's how we know it's right or not. Just deny one word is all it takes to die. It brought the same results in this evil age, spiritual death, as it did physical death to the whole human race.

SPIRITUAL.FOOD.IN.DUE.SEASON  JEFF.IN  65-0718E
The prophet, the Word, the Message; messenger, Message, and man was the same. Jesus said, "If I do not the works that's written of Me, then don't believe Me." That's good. Any man and his message is one.
That's why today that they do not believe in doing the works of God, because they do not accept the Message of God. They don't believe the Message.  But those who believe God's hour that we're living in, these things are hidden food. Just think. God has so hid it that they look right at it and don't see it. The same way that Elijah blinded the Syrian army, the same way that God blinds the unbeliever from the true genuine Food of the child, the believer.

Brother, sister, do you realize what's been said? You'll cross that line, and you'll never want to do it. You'll still hear the Gospel; sure, but you'll never accept it. You can't accept it. But the Gospel will be preached to the doomed, those that are eternally lost, can't get saved no more. You're already in that spot and don't know it. You think you're living in pleasure and dead while you're alive. Oh.
Listen. All those who rejected the message of the hour before doom... The Gospel was preached to the doomed first before they went, without mercy.  Noah shut up, was a testimony. God shut the door after his Third Pull. After the Third Pull at Sodom, the doors was shut. There was no more mercy. The ten couldn't be found. And the lost had the Gospel preached that could not be saved, because it was yet... Been that way in every age; every age reject the message before judgment. Have they done it again? Is that appearing of that Pillar of Fire down yonder on the river? Is that appearing alone in the message of cutting the women, and throwing the places where it should be, and rebuking those ministers who takes the place with the denomination instead of staying on the Word, when God's thoroughly vindicated that it's Him and not some poor ignorant unlearned thing like a man. It's God. And have we now come to the spot that the Third Pull would return again to the lost eternally?

TOKEN.THE BAKF.CA 64-0208
Jesus said, "As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man." The message could not be till now. The world wasn't in the condition, until... it's in now. This is the hour that Jesus could appear at any time.
The sleeping virgin coming in, trying to buy oil... That time when the bride went in, and the rest of them was left here. Did you ever think what happened? They went right ahead preaching, and thinking they were getting souls saved and everything, and did not know it. They knew nothing about it. The church will go on thinking souls are being saved, and everything else, and the church is...   Already the bride's sealed away. Don't know it. Certainly. That's exactly what the Scripture said. Noah went into the ark, and God sealed it out. Truly. And the time will come when men and women will cry to God, and even think that they've got something, when they haven't.

Now, watch, now, dear friend. Now, the people who quit working... See, men are trying to find something to save hisself. There's not a thing you can do about it. You're saved by grace. God does the calling; God does the saving. You just follow the--the footsteps of God; that's all. You can't say... That's what's the nature of a man is. They try to quit eating meat; they try to keep sabbath days; they try to... "If you'd quit doing this..." It's... You're not saved by not eating meat. You're not saved by this, that, or the other. You're saved by grace. And God by grace gives you the new--Eternal Life. See what I mean? And Eternal Life is the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

124-2 SMYRAEAN.CHURCH.AGE  -  CHURCH.AGE.BOOK.CPT.4
Instead of the straight Word of God, instead of the Spirit-filled men in the church who were led by Spirit-given revelation, there are now creeds, and by-laws, and the educated guesses of educated men. Learning has taken the place of revelation. Reason has replaced faith. Program has replaced spontaneous praise in the Holy Ghost. It wasn't so from the beginning. The whole specie has changed. It has become a hybrid church.
The church is made up of good and bad. Two vines make the church. They are like the wheat and tares, growing up side by side. But one is the TRUE. The other is the FALSE. Now God will speak TO each one and He will talk ABOUT each one. He will call them the church. And only the elect will really know which is the true Spirit. Only the elect will not be deceived. Matthew 24:24, "For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect." So way back there in the early church (a very short period after Pentecost) the false vine got to intertwine itself around the True Vine and we find these deeds of the Nicolaitanes. And that spirit is going to be found fighting the True Vine until it is destroyed by God. Now have you got it?
All right. Now what was the spiritual climate of that church? It had left its first love. Leaving its first love of the Word of God was revealed to us as having fallen from its origin, which was Pentecost. In plain English, that means this church was in danger of being taken away from the leading of the Holy Spirit, the control of the Spirit. This was exactly what took place after Moses led Israel out of Egypt.

ANOINTED.ONES.AT.END.TIME  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-3  65-0725M
Look at the last days, it'd be so close it'd deceive the very elected if it was possible. Oh, my. The reason the elected won't be deceived, you know why? Is because they are the Word. See? Just like the Life that's in the root (I said awhile ago), it can't deny itself.

272-2 SARDISEAN.CHURCH.AGE  -  CHURCH.AGE.BOOK.CPT.7
See how Judas was chosen of God. He was instructed in truth. He shared knowledge of the mysteries. He had a ministry of power granted unto him and he healed the sick and cast out devils in Jesus' Name. But when the show-down came, he sold out for gold and political power. He did not go up to Pentecost to receive the Spirit of God. He was devoid of the Spirit. Make no mistake about it, a person that is truly baptized by the Holy Ghost into the body of Christ receiving the fullness of the Spirit will be in the WORD ALL THE WAY. That is the evidence of being baptized with the Holy Ghost.

WHAT.SHALL.I.DO.WITH.JESUS  JEFF  V-6 N-6  63-1124M
Notice, there, when this world council comes together... What will we do with this Jesus called Christ? They certainly don't want nothing to do with It. So there's only one thing to do then. Exactly what they did then. They'll crucify It. Certainly. Shut It up; there can't be no more, It won't be allowed to do it. The force of the religion, of the nations won't let them do it no more. Such ministry that goes on here and things like that will be absolutely closed out. You can't do it without a sanction from the headquarters, the head of the church. See? A image unto the beast. All right, we're here. That's all. We--we--we've arrived, and truly vindicated.[4]

There's your ages. But remember, that Pentecostal church in the last days was the Laodicean, and Christ was turned out, the Kernel, the Wheat Itself. When He tried... Remember, when He tried to manifest Hisself in the church, He was taken out. It was still a church, claimed to be, anointed. But here's the Word, Christ Himself; that's the anointed Word which shall come for the rest of His Body, the Bride. The anointed of the same water that watered the wheat, as we talked about, also waters the tares--anointed ones. Only the elected or predestinated will be able to detect the difference between them. Now, Ephesians 5:1 tells you so, and about how it was. They are anointed ones.

…Oh, what happened? Now, they were shut up. "No revival's going to happen here. Our denomination won't sponsor such. We'll not have that kind of nonsense among us. I forbid any of you to go to that meeting." Jericho, right in the line of the damned...
But there must've been some tape boys slipped in somewhere, for the predestinated seed. They slipped over to her house and played some tapes. She made her--her own house a church to receive the messages. (They still got them, you know.) The message got to the predestinated seed anyhow. We don't know how it got there, but it got there, so that the just will not perish with the unjust. God's seeing to that today. Some way it slips in. They don't know how, though they won't sponsor it; but there is some seed out there that's predestinated.

There's not one thing, as your pastor and your brother, there is not one thing that I can guide you towards this morning but to Jesus Christ. There isn't a thing that I know. Just think of the things that's prophesied to come before the rapture takes place, everything that I know of is done fulfilled.
You say, "What about the mark of the beast?" That's to come in the tribulation. The Church will be gone then. Won't have to mark these, these done gone. See? The marking is going on now. The marking is the showing forth, the brand. Flee to God, flee to Him quickly!

TOKEN.THE BAKF.CA V-22 N-8 64-0208
That makes the difference between the believer and the unbeliever. There were those sealed by the Kingdom of God; and those marked by the mark of the beast. And the ones that was marked by the mark of the beast could not take the seal of God. The same thing's coming in today, and we see it right before our own eyes.

IS.YOUR.LIFE.WORTHY JEFF.IN V-5 N-5 63-0630E
Now, somebody said, "Now, there's going to be a--a mark of the beast; it's going to come someday." Let me tell you, it's already come.
See? As soon as the Holy Ghost begin to fall, the mark of the beast begin to take place.  See, you only have two things: One of them is, accept It, takes the Seal of God, To reject It, takes the mark of the beast. To reject the Seal of God is to take the mark of the beast. Everybody understand? To reject the Seal of God is to take the mark of the beast, for the Bible said all that was not sealed by the Seal of God took the mark of the beast.  When the trumpet sounded and all wanted to go free could go, them that didn't was marked. Now, you see, the mark of the beast, if we talk about it in the future, is when it's going to be made manifest, when you realize it's what you've already done.
See? And so is the Holy Spirit; It's to be manifested when we see the Lord Jesus coming in glory, and feel that transforming power, and see the dead rising out of the grave, and know that in a second longer we'll be changed and have a body like His. It'll be made manifest. Then to see those who rejected it, will be left down--out--out.

When the Ecumenical Council is forcing, and will force every Protestant denomination into it; and it practically all is there now, Full Gospel and all. And the hour is going to come when they'll have to come or stay out, and, at the time, when that force come, you've already identified yourself with the mark of the beast. Now, that's exactly.

God declaring it in the skies, declaring it in His Word, declaring it on the paper, declaring It amongst the people? Can't you open your eyes and see the hour? These are they that testify the Truth. This is the Light of the hour. Watch the great ecumenical move, is going into this council up there now, just forming an image of the beast, in Revelation 17, exactly what it said it would do. You Pentecostal people going to sit still for that and go into it? The forcing hour has come.

It'll be absolutely to the total lost, but it--it will be for the Bride and the church.

Brother Pearry Green started it. And I was there three years, and not one time did you invite me to your pulpit. I set in Tucson for nearly three years. God will take me from the desert one of these days. This message must live. And I tried my best to get into you.

But watch, there will not be any more organizations after this. Watch! The Word Itself--yet twelve years old, just a little bitty thing back in the shuck--He said, "Don't you know I must be about My Father's business?" The Word corrected the church right there.
"What are you doing all these things for? You know you can't do this. We'll close up our doors. We won't let you come in."

SEED.NOT.HEIR.WITH.SHUCK  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-4  65-0218
There's the secret of the Message now. Just exactly, the Father's business. What is the Father's business? Could you think of what the Father's business was to Him? To fulfill what Isaiah said, "A virgin shall conceive." Fulfill what Isaiah said again, "The lame shall leap like a hart," and all these thing that'd take place; like Moses said, "The Lord your God shall raise up a prophet among you liken unto me."
It was the Father's business to fulfill that Word. Well, if that come down through them stalks of them natural women, what about these stalks of these spiritual church women? churches means women--women means churches, rather. Is that right? Then what is it now?
"We must be about the Father's business!" the wheat would cry back, the grain. Yes, sir. What must it do? Vindicate Malachi 4; vindicate Luke 17:30; vindicate Hebrews 13:8; vindicate St. John 14:12; vindicate all of His Word: vindicate Hebrews--I mean--Revelation the 10th chapter; of the opening of the Seven Seals; and the mysteries of God, even to serpent's seed, and all would be manifested: Marriage and divorce and all these other mysteries that's been hid under the pillars from all these years from the theologians and so forth, but it's now the hour. That's the Father's business. Think they would receive it?

WHEN.THEIR.EYES.WERE.OPENED  BEAUMONT.TX  64-0312
So is it today. The God that they claim that they believe in, that manifests Himself, they'll... he will shut up every door, and no cooperation, no nothing else. Say it's contrary to their creeds. "Oh, fools, slow of heart," to know the day that we live in. Has not God promised this in the last days? How this Laodicea church'd be lukewarm and Jesus on the outside, trying to get in for a little cooperation. What is Jesus? The Word, the true Word that's made manifest--on the outside trying to get in; and couldn't get in…

ANOINTED.ONES.AT.END.TIME  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-3  65-0725M
Oh, you false teachers, listen at these tapes all these years and seen God confirm exactly what He said, and you set in your study and know it's the Truth, and because of your denominational differences, you dispute them and tell your people they're not so. Woe unto you.





INVISIBLE.UNION.OF.THE.BRIDE  SHP.LA  V-2 N-15  65-1125
  Oh, no wonder, no wonder the damnation of God is heaped up. God put it right before your eyes, and you shut your eyes and fail to look at it. Shutting up your bowels of compassion when you see the true Word of God in these Seven Seals being vindicated and proved to be so, and witnessed in the heavens across the nations and everywhere else by great signs and wonders that He promised He would do. Then you shut up and say, "I don't know; I can't help it, I..." See?
Oh, my. Dead, and don't know it. Sins and trespasses you're dead. Oh, my.

EASTER.SEAL  PHOENIX.AZ  V-2 N-6  65-0410
  Every door could be closed. That don't make a bit of difference to me. I'm not trying to glorify some man, or some organization, nor myself, or none of the groups, or nothing else. I want people to see Jesus Christ is raised from the dead, and His Spirit lives. He's the same yesterday, today, and forever.

  They received an invitation and turned it down. Yes, sir.
They can't understand how a simple Message, a simple people, to reject a thing like that would cause them to go into chaos.

TRIAL.A  TUCSON.AZ  64-0427
And I'd like to stop here on Noah's witness, and let you know this, that there'll come a time that, when men and women... the church will be going right ahead preaching and believing they're getting saved, when the door will be closed, just like it was then. If you're not in, you get in now, 'cause God will close the door and there'll be no more mercy. He said, "As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the coming of the Son of man."

HARVEST.TIME  PHOENIX.AZ  V-18 N-6  64-1212
Same now. Cain's revelation of the Word done the same thing that these has. What? Promised her. At the end of time, what promises this Eve now? Listen close now, I'm closing. What promise to this Eve at the end time? Riches, Laodicea, great name, great person, rich. "But dead, and naked, and don't know it." That's what the church age ended in.
But she denies the Word. To make Matthew 24:24 real to her, she tries to move in with a lot of noise, and a lot of this, and a lot of social standings, and things like this, trying to say, "Well, we got power! Glory to God (Hallelujah.), we got power!" Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof, so close that it would deceive the very elected...

RECOGNIZING.YOUR.DAY  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-1  64-0726M
The church this day is prophesied to be blinded, to reject the evening time Message; Revelation 3 said so; "Thou art wretched, miserable... !" Notice the Bride's condition the other night--or the church: naked, blind, and don't know it! Lord Jesus, be merciful to us! The Bible said she was naked. I never saw it till just now. Laodicea church was naked. And when she appeared the other night, she was naked (never noticed it), and didn't know it!

GOD.OF.THIS.EVIL.AGE  JEFF.IN  V-4 N-9  65-0801M
My, they'll argue with you. They'll stand right up and fuss at you about it. Well sure, Satan stood right in the face of Jesus Christ, the Word, and tried to say it's written. And there He was, the vindicated Word of God. He said, "Get behind Me, Satan!" Just walk and do the same thing. Like a fellow said to me one time, said, "Now, if you believe the baptism of the Holy Ghost is right and you believe you've got It," said, "now, you strike me blind." That was a preacher, said, "You strike me blind." He said, "Paul struck a--a man blind one day.
I said, "Mister, how can I strike you blind when you're already blind? How could I kill you when you're already dead."

PARADOX.A  PHOENIX.AZ  V-19 N-1  65-0117
And you can stand in the Presence of the living God, you can stand under the anointing of the Spirit and see It moving, and still It won't touch you. You can see what God said, preached to you perfectly and then manifested, and still won't go in, "don't believe It," then, there, you are beyond reach. You're already dead, numb, blinded, gone on. They were completely.

FOURTH.SEAL.THE  JEFF.IN  63-0321
Like He give Egypt, He give Egypt place to repent. What was that last plague? Was death. That's the last plague that's hit the Pentecostal church. It's spiritual death; she's dead. That's in the Name of the Lord. She's spiritually dead. He gave her place to repent, and she rejected it; now she's dead. She'll never rise again.

Be awful to think, now, that some of these days that people would be going on preaching just like they did in the days of Noah, they would be going on just the same, but to a doomed world that's already the doors is closed. We don't know what time that might happen.

When I think of the blinded human beings in this earth who see, but yet, can't understand … and still they don't understand. How can it be? Because their eyes are not open.  It's going to open one of these days, my friend, but it'll be too late then.
The time will be gone. And you'll wonder back, "You mean to tell me this, that so-and-so, and such a thing was this, and I didn't know it?" It goes over their head. They don't catch it. Do you catch what I'm saying? It goes over them. It's right...Looking for some great something to happen in the future when it's right now, and you fail to see it.

INFLUENCE  BEAUMONT.TX  64-0315
And that's the way with the world today. It's got plenty to eat, plenty to wear, fine churches, big places, fine educated ministers. And so they don't need nothing else. But you don't know the Scriptures said you're naked, miserable, blind and don't know it. Don't know it! And you can't tell them no different. They continually wade right on down that line, and fail to let the Word of God influence them to believe Jesus Christ is raised from the dead and alive today, the same yesterday, today, and forever, showing Himself alive. They're just simply dead. Everywhere, everywhere you go seems to be the same thing.
E-84   Had to be that way, you know. He has to be put out of the church. There's no way at all for it to keep from being this way. God said it would be this way. But if... let it shake you. Let it shake you good. No matter what nation you're in, wherever you're at, whoever you are, let it wake you up. Hours come and go. The first thing you know, you'll be saying, "Well, I thought there was supposed to be this happen before the rapture."  There might be a voice come back like it did one time, "It's already happened and you didn't know it." You'll be all anchored off in a church somewhere, saying, "I'm just as secure as I can be," and the first thing you know the rapture will be gone. It's going to be a secret, sudden going--nobody know nothing about it.
The world will keep right on going, like Noah went into the ark.
You remember after Noah went into the ark, he sat there seven days after God closed the door. God closed the door and Noah sat in the ark for seven days before anything happened. And the door of mercy will be closed in your face, and might already be. And just think of it--the people'll go ahead preaching, people'll think they're getting saved, putting their names on books, joining church, shouting, jumping up and down.

INDICTMENT.THE  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-19  63-0707
I'm bringing an indictment to the denominational churches of this day and also many of the independents for crucifying Jesus Christ afresh in this day…
I must show, and will show, that the same spirit is on the people today that brought the first crucifixion and doing the same thing.
And now, today, by the same Word and by the--the same Holy Spirit, and the same Word, I--I wish to show the churches their--their--where they stand: that they are doing the same thing today;
and the Bible said they would do it; and prove that this is the day that we're living in. It could not been done a few years ago. I say fifty years ago it could not have been done. But today this is very timely. And it could not have been done, maybe, ten years ago, but it can be done today, because the TIME IS RUN OUT. [5] We are--we are at the end time.
 And I believe, as His servant, that we are--we are just about to cross from this land to another. Therefore, the time for repentance, for a nation, it's gone. I believe that this nation cannot repent. I believe that it's crossed the line between mercy and judgment. I believe she's toddling in the balance.

JEHOVAH.JIREH.PT.1  GRASS.VALLEY.CA  JJ 37-72  62-0705
Yeah, but Jesus said, "Whosoever looketh upon a woman to lust after her, has committed adultery with her in his heart already." You might--don't have to do the act. "Whosoever is angry with his brother without a cause, has killed already." [6]





CHRIST.IS.IDENTIFIED.THE.SAME  TAMPA.FL  64-0415
It was God that was in Joseph. Joseph's character just exactly typed Christ. He was born in the time of all the great church there with his father. His brothers hated him because he was spiritual. He saw visions and could interpret dreams, and his brothers hated him without a cause. If that wasn't just exactly the reason they hated Jesus...

GOING.BEYOND.THE.CAMP  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-3  64-0719E
Look at Joseph, the life: loved of the father, hated of his brothers because he was a seer. And they hated him without a cause. That was the only cause they could hate him for. Perfect type of today, exactly, the church again, they hate the spiritual things.

GOING.BEYOND.THE.CAMP  JEFF.IN  V-6 N-3  64-0719E
I've stood for what I have been saved to do, uphold this Word of God. I know the denominations hate me for the things that I say, but I'm greatly loved in His House, among His people.

That's the way it was in the changing of the church ages, each time, when the message was rejected. And God giving these gifts and messages to the people, and they turn them down, then there is nothing left but judgment.

RECOGNIZING.YOUR.DAY  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-1  64-0726M
Down in your heart you feel the Holy Spirit dropping tears. "Jerusalem, oh, Jerusalem, how oft would I have hovered you. But what did you do? You killed the prophets that I sent to you. You murdered them!" And the Messages has been sent to the church today has been murdered by their denominational dogmas. The Scripture has been murdered by their dogmas. Jesus said, "If you'd only knowed your day; but it's too far now, it's too late now." So is it with the churches.
I do believe with all my heart she's passed redemption.

WHAT.SHALL.I.DO.WITH.JESUS  JEFF  V-6 N-6  63-1124M
And what have the churches desired? A murderer of the Word; one who takes a system. If the system is contrary to the Word, then it's a murderer to the Word. And they desired a denomination tradition in the stead of the True Word being manifested, and proved that It's God amongst the people: by science, through pictures; Light, the same Angel of the Lord, the Pillar of Fire; the same One that lived on earth in the--in the body of Jesus Christ is come upon His people in the last day, where science has took the picture of It.
The church has seen His works. It's thoroughly identified by tapes and everything, around and around the world, and personally ministered. And still in all of that their systems are desiring a council of churches, to condemn the Truth. Desiring a murderer that would shut off, or stop, or sell out; and it'll do it. They'll stop such a thing, and the council of churches will have to do it, There's the mark of the beast. Antichrist--Against the Word, which is Christ.

RECOGNIZING.YOUR.DAY  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-1  64-0726M
National force put Israel in her homeland. National force will put the church in the World Council of churches. But the Power of God will put the people in the Bride. The world forces this way, and the world forces that way, but God forces upward, the Spirit of God, which is the Word of God ("My Word is Spirit and Life will put the Bride in her place, 'cause she'll recognize her position in the Word; then she's in Christ.") will put her in her place. No national force will do it. But the national force did drive Israel to the homeland. The national forces of the Council of churches will drive every organization into it, but the Power of God will raise the Bride into Glory, out of it.

CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-7  63-0728
Oh, the devil's howling about this. The manifested truth of the promise of the Word in Her alone... They don't have the answer. When Jesus come, why didn't those Pharisees...? He said, "If I cast out devils by the finger of God, who do you cast them out by?" He stood alone, and His Church stands alone. She's not hooked with nothing. But He was identified by God, being the body that God dwelled in, and the Church is identified by His Body doing the same thing. She is His Body, the manifested Truth of His promised Word for the last days. And She and She alone stands by it. That's why the devil is howling, these great organizations set up something to close her up. They'll never do it. She'll be taken up, not closed up.

I only see one thing left, [7] the coming of the Lord Jesus, at any time, a rapture for the Church, and we're to meet Him in the air. Now these things has got to come to pass in this day, just as He promised that He would do it.

The Presence of Jesus Christ, which ought to--to illuminate the church to know that in this last days where creeds, and denominations, and isms, and everything has got the--the Word all smothered out, and Jesus the Word on the outside of the church, and to see Him come right back among the people and identify Himself as He promised, "in the last days when the Son of man is being revealed..." He was revealed in the baptism; He was revealed in Divine healing; here He is in His last attribute. Remember, that was the last thing that Abraham saw before the fire fell and judged the Gentile world, and before the promised son came on the scene: Isaac. This is the last thing that the Christian church will see in the sign of miracle until the appearing of Jesus Christ. If God has give me favor before you, believe me in the Name of the Lord: there's nothing else left in the Bible to be done but take on the mark of the beast; and you have the Seal of God.

[1] Another type of the spirit of Elijah in Brother Branham: refer to 1 KINGS 19:10
[2] It is important to realize that a Sealing is taking place and spiritual warfare      accompanies timely revelation.
[3] These same thoughts are present among Message believers today.  Many are looking for a particular “part” of Brother Branham’s Message to transpire, when it has already taken place,  or is nearly completed now.
[4] Notice over 35 years ago, the prophet was speaking of the “squeeze” vindicated in present tense. Where are we today? The crucifixion of the pure Message?
[5] The last Age of the Seven Church Ages began in 1906.  Fifty years later, Brother Branham told us of the approaching jubilee.  He said the Message would either be accepted or rejected.  He predicted it would be turned down.
The religious systems witnessed Brother Branham’s ministry.  In the early years many denominations accepted him because of his gift of praying for the sick  and the auditoriums were filled to overflowing. 
Then came the opening of the Word, in 1963. With this change in his ministry came rejection.  The Message and the messenger became despised.  From the rejection of the jubilee in 1956, until the opening of the Seven Seals in 1963, a solemn 7 years transpired, just as Noah sat in the Ark for seven days and nothing happened.
Later in 1963, Brother Branham indicted this generation for the sin of the second crucifixion of Christ, and indicted them of being guilty of Blood stained hands once more.  According to what he later said, “they were dead,” Thus, their Door was closed.  The religious organizations that had taken 7 church ages of time to mature,  had “crossed the line between mercy and judgment.”
But what about now?  Is there still salvation? Yes, to the individual, in the small sliver of light left to the Gentiles. The Evening Light. The Bride Age. Keep in mind, during these last waning moments of Laodicea,  the Message continues to be preached to “the lost,”  to the “dead and don’t know it.”
How could this be? While Brother Branham’s Message is scorned, Oral Roberts, Billy Graham,  and their disciples have “went right on preaching” as if people have been getting saved. Preaching as if people have been filled with the Holy Ghost. Yet the Prophet said they were “dead.”  Their  “time is run out.” He said “None… outside of them messages will ever come to Life.”
But has time been done away with?  No. Brother Branham said time will go right on until after the Millennium…a thousand years of time, before it breaks out into eternity.  Yet when the Seals were opened in 1963, and the revelation of the mysteries were rejected by the religious systems,  their  time was no more.

[6] For  those who believe immediately after the last one comes into the Body of the Bride, “The Squeeze” will be manifested literally by the World Council of Churches, so be-it.   I am aware of the expectations Brother Branham expressed concerning the WCC, the denominational churches, and how he indicated they would close-shut the doors for Message believers.  This study is intended to examine additional portions of the Message that when connected together, may give us a better understanding. Remember, the prophet, for most of his life expected to be killed in some way for his convictions. Yet his death came in a different manner. Should we ignore the excerpts, (listed below) regarding the prophet’s own ministry after the seals were open?  Or could this be a type of “murder” {squeeze} as Jesus spoke?
…“the word all smothered out, squeezed out, reject the message, crucify the Word, no cooperation, close their doors, the Word is put out, put out the camp, I got one open door in the whole nation, shut up every door, Suffering for His Name sake, the force of religion, the forcing hour has come, we’re here. That’s all, we’ve arrived.”

[7] Could the squeeze possibly be a spiritual application? It is very peculiar the similarities Brother Branham cites of his own message, are consistent with that of Jesus’ ministry St.  John 6:26-66, and that of Paul’s ministry, 2 Timothy 1:7-15. You may recall the manner in which John the Baptist was prophesied to forerun the coming of the Messiah. The Jews perceived it was to be a literal manifestation. (Isaiah 40:3-4) In actuality, the manner in which it was fulfilled was quite different than that which they expected. Even the disciples were unsure of this fulfillment until Jesus, Himself, revealed it to them.
