1 The Shout Of The King The Testimony Of Jesus Is The Spirit Of Prophecy Brother Joseph Coleman Local Christian Assembly 41 West 35th Street New York City, New York December 26, 1965

2 Revelation Of 7 Thunders Time: Sept 20, 1974 Fri - Morning 10:30 AM - 11:00 AM Head Bride Age L O V E Capstone Holy Spirit Laodicea Philadelphia Sardis Thyatira Pergamos Smyrna Eph Bro Kindness Godliness Patience Temperance Knowledge Virtue Faith Elijah Wesley Luther Columba Martin Irenaeus Paul 2 Peter 1:1-8 St Matt 5:48 Heb 11:32-40 Eph 4:11-15 Act 7:44-47 Isaiah 6:1-8

3 Friday, Sept. 20, 1974 The following inspiration was given to me between 10:30 AM and 11:00 AM The 7 Thunders are the 7 Voices of the 7 Church Ages which are 7 Manifestations of the Holy Spirit into the church as Faith Lived Voice Virtue " " Knowledge " " Temperance " " Patience " " Godliness " " Brotherly Kindness " " 7 Voices to build the Perfect Church to be capped off with the Capstone. He builds His individuals the same way. These Voices shook the kingdom of the devil in each age. It s the Lived Voice that is the Thunder that shakes the devil s kingdom. Bride: Each age Bride lived the Word Voice Virtue for her age. Mal 4 restored back to the church 7 Voices for the Bride to live and manifest Brotherly Kindness as her Virtue of her age. Therefore when Charity falls the Bride will manifest not one Virtue but she will actually manifest 7 Voices as Thunder to shake the devil s kingdom The 7 Earthly Angels spoke on earth The Word Bride Body on earth utters 7 Thunders (Voices) with the Word opened

4 The 7th Angel goes forth after the 7 Seals open with the 7 last Mysteries Thunders Voice Of God to restore back The Faith to the remnant. The Word that was in the early church as one Voice Of God is spaced out over 7 Church Ages as 7 Manifestations of the same Holy Spirit that was in the early church. The 7th Angel brings back these 7 Manifestations with a message to the last day Bride. She receives the Word Message as the 7 Part Voice Of God. It wakes her up Revival for her The 7 Voices thundered out in the Bride 7 Steps added back because she's one with the Original Voice, Then the 7 Voices go forth as One Voice Of The Resurrection. Each (Word Virtue) lived as the Voice Of God for it's day and age The Bride Tree fully restored shall live again with all 7 Manifestations of the Holy Spirit in her, with signs - wonders - miracles. The Word (7 Parts) is now born into manifestation in your midst, allowing the Spirit to confirm that you are preaching the Word. Heb 2:4 Heb 13:8 God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will? Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

5 1 Shall we remain standing. Almighty God, we are so happy to be gathered here this morning on this great day. And Lord Jesus, Father, this day to many of us is a sad day just like about two thousand years ago when you in the days of your flesh; when the enemy had cut you down, and when you had gone, your disciples walked the earth. And also they had sorrow, and also they were sad, but Lord Jesus, the Resurrected Word of God, moved upon the earth and came and spoke to your disciples, and said, Oh fools and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken. Lord God, may the resurrection power move in our midst this morning and speak to our hearts that we might say today... that we might leave this place saying, Didn t our hearts burn within us as you speak to us in the upper room. Lord God, you re the same yesterday, today, and forever. We believe this. Thy Word, Oh Lord, is settled forever in Heaven. Thy Word shall not return void. Father, this is a great hour. Though we have sorrow now, it shall be turned into joy. For I believe, now Lord, that soon, even now, great is the Shout of the King in the camp. Father, we know that Thy prophet is laying down in the ground there, and dear God, we know that he will be in the resurrection. Praise God. Now Lord, may the Holy Spirit come in now and move up and breathe on the Word to make your disciples hearts burn this morning. We pray Heavenly Father in Jesus Christ s name, Amen. You may be seated. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever. I want to greet everyone this morning in the name of the Lord Jesus. We have a little long message this morning, about an hour or so. I don t know how long the Lord will lead us but, I believe that the Holy Spirit this morning would be leading this way, that we re here for an understanding, for we come to God s house to receive understanding of the Word of God. We want to greet our dear Sister Ellen Clark this morning. She s sitting right here. I would like to ask her to stand up so that you may see her because I m going to read something this morning. This is Sister Ellen Clark. God bless you. She came through here by, through Sister Ruth here, and she s a seed of God, and she s up in Rochester

6 2 now, and she has - now has fellowship with the Scott s up there in Buffalo. So they have wonderful fellowship now. So God has a way of putting his people together. So, but the reason she s here this morning, something that the Holy Spirit laid upon her heart, and that something was those words which God gave her, those words, they were used to comfort Brother Branham s family. So therefore we have it this morning and also we d like to read it this morning. Now, before we go into the service, we have Brother Garcia here with us from down in Puerto Rico. And just this morning, some other eagles walked in here, Brother Candellario in the back here, and also Brother Ortiz. So Brother Garcia, he s asked Brother Hunte and myself, and also we are nothing, he s asked us if we would lay hands upon him. So therefore, he s a minister of God, but he d just like someone in this message to sort of lay their hands upon him. And so therefore, we being here a Church, and also sovereign in our own right, we re going to it this morning. And we re going to ask Brother Candellario, and also Brother Ortiz to also come forward and also Brother Kurt, as we would lay hands upon him. Shall we turn to page 225 and sing our song this morning? (Singing: - Speak My Lord ) Praise God. We believe that the great Eagle God has revealed His message to Brother Garcia, Brother Candellario here, and also Brother Ortiz. And there s a great job to do, for this message now must go out to the four corners of the earth. The message has been delivered by the great servant of God. The message got home. And now it s been planted in our hearts, and now the Holy Spirit must come to quicken that message and make it live. I believe that the Holy Spirit will quicken the message in his heart, his heart, and his heart, and make that message live down in South America, Puerto Rico, anywhere God will send them. Amen, Praise God. So therefore, we believe that this is the hour the scripture said, that the ministers will see eye to eye, through God the Holy Ghost. We see eye to eye here for we believe the same Word of God. Any two

7 3 walk together except they be agreed. Amen. So therefore, Brother Garcia, he believes the message. Therefore God will send him. Brother Hunte and I, we re not sending him, see, God is sending him. God must give him the message. We re merely laying hands upon him and praying that God will pass on to him the apostolic greetings. We pray now, Brother Garcia, this is Brother Raphael Garcia. So may you turn and also face the congregation. We here, the elders here - now you know, this is the Bride of Jesus Christ, and though we have different assemblies, we re still the same body. So therefore we have the same mind. So therefore we agree here that this is our precious brother here, and we believe that he has the message in his heart. So therefore, we are going to lay hands upon him to show that we believe this. Therefore would you bow your heads as the elders here lay hands upon him. Praise God. Would you bow your heads with us? Almighty God, as we stand here this day Lord, on a day when Thy servant, Thy great prophet, is laying down in Jeffersonville, Indiana, in a funeral parlor. Father, his remains is laying there. We know, oh God, that his spirit is with Thee up in the place that you took him up to many years ago. Father, he s now rejoicing. He s with his wife Hope, his daughter, Lord Jesus. And now God, as our dear Brother Garcia stands here Lord. He says that Thou art the Christ, and Father, you say back to him, He s Brother Garcia. And Father, he has this message in his heart. We pray today, dear God, as the elders here lay hands upon him, that the great Holy Spirit would move upon our brother and quicken every Word, every Word in this message in his heart, Father, that he might be like Phillip, and give out the life-giving seed germ to the people that are dying our there Lord. The body of Jesus Christ is laying dead, for the body without the spirit is dead. Father, may the great Holy Spirit quicken him, Lord, that he might give out Spirit to the body of Jesus Christ. Father, we lay hands upon him. May you send him into the uttermost parts of the earth to preach the Gospel. For this Gospel shall be preached for a witness to all the ends of the earth. It has not - this has not been so. For this Gospel has gone out in word and book form; it has not gone out in power to the ends of the earth. Dear God, may he be one of the ser-

8 4 vants, one of the eagles, that you ll send forth with the power of the message that your prophet has brought home in our hearts. Father we pray in Jesus Christ s name, may you send him. Amen. Praise God. (Singing: - Speak My Lord ) Amen. Praise God. Halleluiah. Praise God. Praise God. Glory to God. Well we thank God to know that there s one thing that we know, that this message will never go into a denomination. This is the end. Can t go no further. It s finished with. It cannot be denominated. For it s eagle time. It is eagle time. So Brother Garcia, may God bless you, and send you forth in His power. Brother Hunte and I, we just want to help all we can, and we just join with all our brothers across the world. And I believe as the scriptures will show us today, that though many people, they don t believe what is taking place right here this morning in the Bride, it s gonna be that way, see, whether they believe it or not. So therefore, it s strange that on this day that this should take place. Now I want to announce, that, the funeral arrangement for Brother Branham. Wednesday, there ll be no service because God s prophet, Brother Branham, they re going to hold a funeral service for him, we re not quite sure whether it s Wednesday or Thursday. But I was told that it was supposed to be Thursday, but it s still tentative. So therefore, perhaps here, there ll be some who, you ll want to go down there. So please feel free to go. If you have the means, well then you go, see. So now this is, far as I understand, the funeral arrangement. Brother Pearry called and told me that Brother Billy Paul and his family, that they re leaving Tuesday, far as I know. This was as of yesterday morning. And they re leaving Tuesday. And also a brother called me last night, Brother Ben Briant, and told me that the body came in last night at 9:30, and he was out there to meet that body, Brother Ben Briant, and they took it to the funeral parlor, and there he s resting now. And so then, he s... they don t know any more. So then Billy Paul, he told Pearry Green that, don t let anyone see the body until he comes there. So therefore, the

9 5 body, as far as we know, it cannot lie in state until Billy Paul gets there. That would be Tuesday perhaps, maybe sooner, I don t know. So then now I understand that his body is to lay there Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, maybe Friday, I don t know. And also, they want to give time for people to come from all over the world to see his body laying there. Now I understand that the Tabernacle s small, and that they re going to have a private family service, and guests only of the family. But the people, they ll be allowed to file through and just look at the remains of the body. That s the way I understand it. Now this could change. But as far as I know, Thursday is supposed to be the day, we don t know whether it s in the morning, whether it s at night or nothing, but we haven t heard because they don t know themselves yet. So as soon as we hear, well, then those of you if you want to go, you can call us later on, and perhaps if we get the message then we can tell you. So, but we don t know as yet. And we may find out this afternoon. If so, it will be announced tonight. Now, does everybody understand that? Thursday, tentatively Thursday. And the body will lie in state for about three of four days far as we know. Now, Brother Green told me that he s going - that he plans to have a memorial service out in Tucson, that is, if Sister Meda allows the body to be buried out in the West. But seems like Billy Paul and them, they didn t want to be buried in the West, but Sister Branham maybe, cause Brother Branham said that he wanted to be buried in the East. So therefore, I don t know. So, if the body is to be buried in the West, Brother Greene, he ll have a memorial service sometime in January. And there, he ll allow all the brothers to speak, and also say a few words over, you know... And then, that would be in January. That is, if the body goes out there to be buried. So then, that would be the next service, and that is on condition. So that s as far as we know what is going on down in Indiana. Does everyone understand now? Amen. Now, we re here this morning - we re here this morning. It s a sad day in one way, but nevertheless, God s servant, he has brought us a promise. So, for us to understand the very thing that he was to bring us is here now, we re right at the door, for the rapture of the Bride of

10 6 Jesus Christ. So therefore, though it s a sad day, it s also a joyful day, for we have waited. They have all waited in the graves for this day. They re now waiting for this to happen now. This is the day that Paul and also all of them wanted to be living in this hour. And we are privileged above all people to be living in this hour, to see the Coming of the Lord, His Secret Coming, actually. So now, just for about, this morning, I may be a little lengthy. I don t exactly know what to say cause I m tired, and we ve been up all week and no sleep, and the phone s been ringing just about 24 hours a day, so to speak. And we just had time to jot down a few notes, so you pray for me that the Holy Spirit would say what He wants said this morning. For I don t know whether there s anywhere else around in the message this morning that the message is going forth. I don t know, but I know one thing, that most of them are right now down in Indiana. So, God always has a witness upon the earth. So, Brother Hunte and I, we re gonna stand at the post and preach the Word. And then Thursday, we shall be there, God willing. So now, I just want to back over his death, and say a few things. Now from last Sunday morning, there were conflicting reports. So actually I heard that Brother Branham never changed since last Sunday, but they just said that, not that they just said that, because that s the kind of report that was given them, see? So therefore, nobody actually knew what was taking place, really, but he was laying there. I believe that he was with the Lord. So, that s neither here nor there though. But now, last Sunday morning, Brother Pearry Green, when he was flying into Texas, like I said Wednesday, I believe it was. He saw the moon in the East, and also the moon was dark, right at the small part of the moon, I say about a eighth of it, it was blood on the moon. Four other brothers saw this also. That was a sign. Then Wednesday when he was failing, and we announced it here Wednesday night, but actually he was dying then. And therefore the doctors said to let the brothers go in, and they all got together about 25 or 30 of them, out in the waiting room, and also all of them prayed and they asked for a sign. At that time it was kind of cloudy there and the sun come out bright as an amber color, and gave them a sign. That

11 7 was Wednesday, right after they prayed. Now Sunday - Friday evening at 5:49, I understand that the evening star came out brighter that has ever been before. It shined brighter than it s ever been upon the face of the earth. And I m told now, that you just have to receive it, this is what somebody told me. So therefore, whether who said it, it doesn t matter, but I was told this. I was told that through the moon Friday night, the moon was setting in the West, see. Last Sunday when Brother Green went out there, it was in the East. Then the moon rode a trail across the sky for six days. And it set in the West out near Sunset Mountain. It rode a trail, there was a light right through the moon, right through the evening star, rather. And the evening star, brighter than what it s ever been before, there was a light through it on either side, it rode a trail from the East clean out through the West. Let God reveal it to your heart what it means. The evening star rode a trail across the skies. It s amazing when, and we in our natural minds try to figure out something, isn t it? So, a sinner remarked that, My, isn t that evening star bright tonight? It was brighter, it was shining brighter in his death. When he passed away, it shined brighter than it was ever shined before. So now we see that, so it was said like I said, that a trail went across the sky from East to West. As lightning cometh out of the West or out of the East. Now, Sister Ellen Clark, she s here in this assembly, and she sent down to Sister Ruth some inspired words, and I don t believe she really knows how inspired these words are. So therefore I m going to read it to you. Because a brother called me last night and told me, he says, Who wrote that poem up there in New York? So therefore I told him who it was. He says, Everybody knows about it, and they re making copies of it. Amen. Praise God. So therefore, Brother Green told me that out of everything that was said, this poem really lifted up William Branham s family. This poem here. It lifted them all up and gave them faith, so therefore, I d like to read it. Now, this brother also told me last night that there s enough in this poem for him to preach until the Lord comes. Amen. So we know it come right from God. And some of you sisters want to

12 8 know, What can I do? Stay still. She s by herself. Amen? She s all alone in Rochester; a seed of God. Therefore, she wasn t trying to preach. God spoke to her heart and she wrote. So therefore, you sit still awhile, God, He ll speak to you also. Housewives and so forth, and you won t have to preach, He ll tell you what to do. Amen. Praise the Lord. So this is the poem. It s entitled, The Hush And when He had opened the Seventh Seal, there was silence in Heaven about the space of a half an hour. Revelation 8:1. What is this breath of silence, this hush of expectation? A groan, a tear, a whisper, a prayer? It is the closing scene of a great drama. The time when spectators wait, open mouth, gazing at the stage, for the play has reached its climax. It is the time the fingers of the entranced reader turn to the last page of his novel to find at last the key to the intriguing mystery. It is the hush before the dawn, the stillness before the flower opens, and birds begin their song. It is the breathless waiting of the eagle soaring high in the air with his eye on a serpent coiled on a rock ready to strike. This was Wednesday, see, and the serpent struck Friday. But the eagle was soaring high in the air. Amen. It is the hush before the wedding march begins. As the bride prepared waits at the door. Either your heart has been turned back, or it hasn t. So when Christ comes: he that is filthy, be filthy. Either Elijah has turned your heart back or he has not, he s failed. As a bride prepared waits at the door, and the eyes of the bride groom turn to look at her. It is the last groan, the last tear, the last whispered prayer of the expectant mother, [notice, sorrow] who gives at last all strength she has and brings forth life. [joy]

13 9 I am Alpha and Omega, the Beginning and the Ending, which is, which was, and which is to come, the Almighty. That was written by this sister right here. Inspired of the Holy Ghost. So we want to know, what can we do for the Lord? Sit still. God will tell you. Amen. Praise the Lord. So we thank God for that, that God allowed it. Brother Hunte, he called Brother Pearry. We felt led to get this down to Brother Branham, that somebody may read it to him, and Brother Hunte, he got Pearry on the phone, and also he wrote it down word for word, and read it to him and also everybody waiting down in the waiting room down there. And now, Brother Ben Briant told me that they want to make up copies, and they want to pass it around. But, she has the rights to it, but actually it s the Holy Spirit s. So I guess it s alright. Amen? Praise the Lord. So, therefore, that was The Hush. So it really lifted up the family, and...oh yes, Brother Green said that it may be read at the funeral service, so I don t know yet. And now notice, something very strange about Texas, isn t it? The Pillar of Fire first appeared in Texas, 1950, I believe it was. Life appeared in Texas. President Kennedy was killed in Texas. Is that right? Brother Branham was...there was a blackout, first in New York, then in Texas, and God s prophet was blacked out in Texas. There was death and life in Texas. And now, strange now that Johnson is in Texas, President Johnson. And also one to really come forward and also help to our Brother Branham s family, Pearry Green from down Texas. So we don t understand, it s all spiritual, actually what this means. So, but God s prophet was blacked out in Texas. New York also had a blackout. We all know what that means. So all we know is that what these things are on. Now we understand also that Sister Meda, last week in the room, this week I think, last week, that she saw Brother Branham, and he stood by the bedside there. It was a vision, and he told her that: I have to go away for a little while, I have to go away, but I will be back in a little while, at the

14 10 last trump. This is what I heard, see. A sister had a dream of Brother Branham saying these very words, that he would be back in the resurrection at the last trump. The dead in Christ shall rise first. Shall walk the earth for a witness up on the earth. Brother, he s living, he s not dead. But, what he wants this morning, I believe, that some eagles would stand up and preach the message that he has delivered. Amen. So, this is the time to look up, for your redemption draweth nigh. Amen. So, what does all this mean? I do not know. But, I ve been commissioned by...to stand up here and feed the flock, just like Brother Hunte. That s what we re trying to do. I cannot feed you, He must feed you. So let therefore, I can t feed you. Let us turn to the Word of God. Let s bow our heads. Almighty God, we pray that the Holy Spirit, the Dove of God, would come down in here, Father, in this sweet anointing in here today, letting your people know that you re among us. Breathe upon your Word, make it live in their hearts. For they have heard the message, dear God, now make this message live in their hearts. Encourage them, and may they go out of these doors, saying, Didn t our hearts burn as you came and spake to us by the wayside. We pray in Jesus name. Amen. Let us turn to Isaiah 12. Do we all understand now what happened down in Texas? And what is going on now? If there s anything else, God has to reveal it to your heart. It s good now you know that a lot of, Well what did he say, and who said that, see, that should cease now, you know? Just receive the report, believe it and go on, see. It shouldn t matter, did John Jones say that, or did John Jackson say it? It shouldn t make any difference. What time did he say it? Was it underlined? See what I mean now? Somebody asked me that question. Somebody called me and gave me the scriptures that was given to me, and they want to know, was that underlined by Brother Branham. I don t know. I m telling you now, what people want to know, see. Blessed is he that believeth without seeing, saith the scriptures; saith Jesus Christ in His resurrection ministry to His disciples. Thomas didn t believe. He believed after, see. So you re blessed if

15 11 you sit here, and you believe the Word of God. Amen. God said so. Isaiah 12: And in that day thou shalt say O Lord, I will praise thee, though thow wast angry with me, thine anger is turned away, and thou comfortedst me. Behold, God is my salvation; I will trust, and not be afraid: for the Lord JEHOVAH is my strength and my song; and he also is... [present tense]...become my salvation. Therefore with joy shall ye draw water out of the wells of salvation. And in that day... [this day]...shall ye say, Praise the Lord, call upon his name, declare his doings among the people... [in other words, manifest it by the quickening power]...make mention that his name is exalted. Sing unto the Lord, for he hath done excellent things; this is known in all the earth. [for the trail was written across the sky] Cry out and shout, thou inhabitant of Zion: for great is the Holy One of Israel in the midst of thee. I Thessalonians, the 4th chapter; the 13th verse: But I would not have you to be ignorant brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even as others which have no hope. For if we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with him. For this we say unto you by the word of the Lord... [which we re saying here this morning]...that we which are alive and remain until the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain... [now, notice now; we which are alive, dead in sins and trespasses. Only the quickening power makes you alive. Amen. We which are quickened, let us say and remain]...shall be caught up together

16 12 with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these words. That s what I m doing this morning. By the grace of God, you are to be comforted with these words, that you sorrow not even as they in the world sorrow, for the joy of your salvation. You re gonna drink the waters from the wells of salvation, which is the Word of God. Do you believe that? That s going on now. So, now, I d like to title this, The Shout Of The King. There s going to be a shout, and we want to...and we notice here that three things are here, that is said here. That there s a shout, that there s a voice of the archangel, and there s a trump of God. So, by God s grace, this is to be explained this morning, not by me, but by...it was explained by God s prophet, when he preached the last message, The Rapture Of The Bride. God loves you so much that He allowed this revelation to come to us this week. So therefore, we have it this morning, and want to give it out to you. Amen. Comfort you with these words, it s the word of God s prophet, his message; it s got to live in your heart. Now we know that it s a sad occasion, like we say, God s prophet, Brother Branham, he s laying...his remains rather, is laying down there in that funeral parlor. And I myself, I stand here through his ministry. I met the Lord before I heard about him, but now I know beyond a shadow of a doubt that I am in the Bride, because I received the Word of God, which he preached. And we know that we have this promise. We have the promise. For it was promised that before the dreadful and terrible day of the Lord, I will send you Elijah, and he will turn your hearts back to the apostolic fathers. He will come and reveal all the scriptures: seed of the serpent, Catholic Church, and all these things. Tell you who is the white horse rider, the red horse rider; he ll tell you these things, see. Then when you hear these things, your hearts will be turned back to the apostolic fathers, waiting for the same promise that they had. I ll send my Spirit upon you. In that day you shall know. You re waiting for the same thing right now. Either your hearts have already been turned back, or they

17 13 haven t. Either Elias is already come and brought the truth, the message to you, see. Or either he would have to be resurrected and start all over again. But I don t know, the scripture doesn t say that. Though there are many this morning down in Indiana looking for Brother Branham to be resurrected. They have gathered there from all over, and they re there, and though we were told that nobody can see the body this morning, but they re there. So, I say, if it s God s will for His prophet to be resurrected then let God s will be done. That s what I say. But if I have a charge, I have a charge, and have to stay there and preach the Word, in season, out of season. So now, we find then that we have this promise. We are to comfort one another with this promise, that He will return. He said He had to go away to prepare a place for us. If it were not so, I would not have told you so. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. So He said in the same chapter, if you believe this, then arise and let us go hence to meet the Bridegroom. Is that right? That s the scriptures, see. So we find then, that the Word of God is settled forever, before the foundation of the world. It s not going to change today. In other words, if God did not ordain for his prophet, this morning, to rise, I don t care if five hundred million people are down there, it won t change God s will. Thy word, O Lord, is settled forever in heaven. It s already settled. But He brings it forth in each age. And then the people are blind. This is the Eagle age. The age when the eagles will pick it up, by the revelation of God. What is faith? Faith is the revelation of God s will. Then God must reveal His will; what we are to do. Now we find then, that, three things I said here; like I said, the Lord Himself, personal, He ll descend. But notice, His body stays in the air. His own corporal body stays in the air. But His anointing; but His great Power, comes up on the earth, with, together with a shout. It comes together with a shout. We want to find out what is the shout, see, and then you know what is going to happen. So we find then, that, God in this evil age, in 1933, when His prophet who was born a prophet, he didn t become a prophet in 1963.

18 14 He was born a prophet. But they re just now trying to figure out, is he the prophet; is he the Elias which was to come? He was born a prophet. He was a prophet in God s mind before the foundation of the world, see. So therefore, he was baptizing the seventeenth person down on the banks of the Ohio, and there with about five thousand people standing around there, the Pillar of Fire swung down. The Lord Himself come down in the form of a Pillar of Fire and boomed out, now listen. Now, I m going to quote God s prophet because right now Brother Hunte and I, we have come against many things in the past...this week. There are people now coming trying to say, hold you to every word. I m quoting the Word and also I m quoting God s prophet s Word. I ain t saying anything. So Brother Coleman did not say it, see. The Word says it, and I believe the Word. They re trying...see...there are those who don t know what to say, they don t know what to preach, and very quickly they will start a denomination, see. Other words, what are we all gonna do? I don t know what you re gonna do. I m gonna do what He tells me to do. I m gonna say what He tells me to say. Whatever God tells you to say, say it! And whatever He tells me, I ll say that. See what I mean now? And I ll say it in faith, for I believe it. For He s called me to preach this. Amen. If I didn t believe it, I wouldn t...i d be sitting down there. So we find then that in 1933, the Evening Time Light Message started in It didn t just start, it started there, it was the Word. His prophet started and he was bringing the Word. So those that received the Word from him, that was the seed of God. And He ll raise them up in the resurrection. He ll see all of his friends, and there s thousands of them. Millions screamed, O Brother Branham, that was the Word. The Word born Bride of Jesus Christ, since 1933 when he began to go out. That was the Word. He preached the Word, in season, out of season. And nobody believed in what he was saying, just like now, you see. You can t sit down and say this and that. You can only see eye to eye by the eagle anointing. That s all. You can only see eye to eye by the Holy Spirit. Other words, if...when Brother Branham, when he was preaching, the only way that, and if we were up here in New York

19 15 preaching, we would have to say what he said by the Holy Ghost. That s how you know, see, if you re saying the same thing. You can t wait to get the tape and then play it eleven times, and then...then it s dead then, you see. But if you ve been called, you ll say what he s saying. It will be on the tape. It s in the Word, see. If you preach the Word. So then the voice boomed out, this is the message now, which is coming this morning. This is part of the message. As John the Baptist forerun my first coming, so shall your message forerun my second coming. And you know that we are trying to drive that home to you. So, as John the Baptist in his natural flesh, stood before me, so shall your written message stand before me when I come with a shout. But I will quicken your written message in many hearts. And then they ll know that the King has come with a shout. It s in their midst. And they ll have something to cry about. They ll speak, Thou art the Christ, for they know in that day. For now we know in part, we prophesy in part, but when the great eagle anointing comes, you ll know as even He knows you. You ll know Him. For He will be in you, the fullness of God in you. So we find then, where is this promise found like that? Malachi 4: 5 and 6; Revelation 10: 7; St. Luke: 17: 30. It s found right there in three places. So, other words, it says there in Revelation 10: 7. Your message will wind up all the loose ends from the spirit of man age. Because man tries to figure it out, he doesn t really understand it. Even in this age right now. If a man has the Holy Ghost, he s anointed with the Holy Ghost, but he has to study and get everything together, see. And then he go preach a message, and also he s anointed, see. But when that great inspiration eagle comes, he ll just stand there, for the Word s in him. It ll anoint that Word, and out it comes, you see. So therefore, that s spiritual revelation on the Word of God. So therefore, your message will wind up the loose ends, and introduce the Messiah. So we know that God s prophet in 1963, the Lord Himself came down in the days of the Voice. Is that right? The Voice came together with a prophet sign in 1963, see, and spoke out the revelation of Jesus Christ. That could only be the Son of Man revealing Himself. That s all it could be. For the Son of Man had revealed Himself down

20 16 through the ages. He revealed Himself in the Bride on the Day of Pentecost. He revealed Himself in Paul, Ireaneus, St. Martin, and so forth, but in different forms. Not always the same way, see, in different forms. So therefore, we find then that John wound up the Old Testament. Took all the loose ends, for they didn t quite know what was going on, who was the Word, for they had traditions and commandments of men. They had Pharisees and Sadducees and their sees. But John, the great prophet moved on the scene and tied them all up together. And then he preached the Word: The Messiah is at hand. He preached the Word. So then we found that that same spirit, see, and John called out an elected group. And then the Word, Himself, came on and took that group onward, the Word did. And that Word begin to lay in that presence there - is that right - of the Son of Man - revealed Himself to His disciples. So notice now, Son of Man always comes before Son of God. Son of Man is prophet. Amen. Son of Man, Christ, brought the message for His hour. Then He had the seed germ of life in him, for He was the living Word of that age. Is that right? For the anointing came down, a sign, a dove upon His shoulder there, is that right? And then He was anointed with life in His body. And He gave out His written Word, but it was quickened into His disciples hearts. Then the seed lay in their hearts. They didn t understand it, see. They didn t understand that. They didn t understand it until He came in a resurrection ministry, like we re waiting for, to open their understanding to the scriptures. But they laid there. So we find then, that, that Son of Man, God Prophet, introduced the Holy Ghost age. Then the Son of God poured out Himself over those seeds of God in the Upper Room. That started the great Holy Ghost age. For He gave a promise. He said that in the end time, as it was in the days of Lot and Noah, I will again reveal myself, see, through a body, a man. Amen. And that will be the Son of Man revealing Himself again. For He must come first before the Lord Himself descends with a shout. The Son of Man must come with a promise for this age, and call out seeds from all Pharisees and Sadducees. Is that right? Baptist and Methodist and so forth, call them on out of there, see. And then they follow that Son of Man, man prophet, not God

21 17 Prophet, see, man prophet, see, Son of Man. For Ezekiel was called son of man also. Then he was to take them right up to the rapture, take them right there, and preach the rapture to them and reveal it to them. Then, we don t know, perhaps he was supposed to leave the scene. Some believe it and some don t. Cause some are waiting for him to come back for them, see. But according to your faith, be it unto you. See what I mean now. But I m going to say what the scripture says. No matter what the people believe. Some were looking for a great tent ministry, and I was told about that, that you can t really tell what a prophet, for a prophet speaks in parables. Jesus did. Why wouldn t Jesus explain it to them? That was God Himself. Amen. See. O fools and slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have said. So then, the prophet said many things. He purposely says these things, cause that s God s will. He s got to say...do what his Father tell him. So he had a series of visions with a tent and so forth, but nobody can say whether it was a symbol, or what did it mean. For he spoke the Word. He spoke the Word right here in this congregation, right in the back there, on Sister Lawson s jaw. She had no jawbone, had to come out. He prayed over the phone with me on the phone and he prayed, not me, other words, he spoke the Word, not me, see. Word, it s been going on. Amen. See, I mean when God does these things, and he put it on telephone; that s why the telephone ministry came this year. So he would announce on the telephone all across the country that the people might know that there s a Bride following him every two hundred miles. He got the message home somewhere. He got it home every two hundred miles somewhere, cause right down in Puerto Rico here, down in South America, over in Europe, the message went out. Spoke the Word and went on sowing. He said on this, Wings Of A White Dove, If I could tell you the miracles and the signs that was done in the past three years, you wouldn t believe it. See. But however, Jesus did His things, and very very few people saw it, very very few saw what He did, see. So we just don t understand these things. So therefore it pays to believe the scriptures. Don t look for some great thing like this here, cause we were

22 18 fooled once before in 63. Praise the Lord. Some sisters, they wanted to see angels with trumpets up in the sky and everything. But see, it s the Word coming forth. So we find then that son of man, prophet, God Prophet, called out seeds of God from Pharisees and Sadducees, and so forth. Elected, predestinated seeds of God for that hour. They were the seed of the hour, and he called them out. They had to come. Something inside made them...he said, Follow me. They didn t say, Well, was it underlined. You follow me now? They didn t ask no questions. They followed him. What tape was that on? He didn t mean that, he said this over here. He said, Say what I said. That s what he said. Is that right? Don t change what I said, cause you have not been ordained to change it, only the eagles are. They understand it, and they ll preach it; they ll feed the flock, see, the eagles will. So we find then that the son of man then was to bring a message. What is a message? A message is the thoughts in God s mind for that age. And then that message, when it comes out, it s the Word for the age. Then message Word came by Christ, son of man, He revealed Himself. How? With a sign. Is that right? Pillar of Fire. He told Nathaniel and them, Behold an Israelite indeed, in whom there is no guile. Whence thou knowest me, Rabbi? I saw you, I saw you. You see. So we saw another son of man come and do the same thing, thousands of times. Still they don t believe it, but he did it. Amen. So then we find then that that son of man had a message, the Word, not to be spoken to individually, see, but to believe all that the prophets have said, the scriptures. Believe the scriptures. Then, that was the message, that message was the Word of God. That was THE Word. THE Word of God. That was God Himself. Then we find then, that Christ was God s seed message. Now notice this now, listen to what I m saying very carefully now. Christ, the Word, was God s seed message. But that seed message did not live in their hearts yet - it was there - until it was quickened by the Holy Ghost on the Day of Pentecost. Are you beginning to understand that now? But that message was in their hearts, for they was restored. They was restored from the fathers to little children. Is that right? He went to all the old traditions and got out some children,

23 19 and they was restored. John did that. Amen. Then John said, I must decrease, as He increases. But he had to preach marriage and divorce, before he left the scene. Amen. It s in the scriptures. So then we find then that Christ was God s seed message. But it did not live in hearts until it was quickened by the Spirit. Then we find, what did the Spirit do? The Holy Spirit did the following: The Holy Spirit in Jesus day called out the seeds of God from different denominations, is that right? Called them out. Then it preached to souls in prison. Then signs followed the message Word; Jesus, the Word had signs following Him. Just like today, see. Raise... the same Spirit raised Christ from the dead. See. If it be in you, it shall also quicken your mortal bodies in the resurrection also. Made Christ live for forty days. Forty is the judgment. Are we going into the judgment? Huh? Then, it came when they died out. It came on them for power for service. Amen. The Spirit of God did. Same Spirit that was upon Christ. That same anointing. He was the original Corn of Wheat. He abided alone as long as He walked the earth Himself. That would be the only fruit. But first fruits go back to God, for it s a law in Leviticus: 23. Goes back to God. It must be offered back to God. Then the first mature corn of wheat must be cut down, bruised, battered, and be offered back to God, that the Holy Spirit might come back upon the seeds of God that were called out of all denominations, that are waiting on a promise; for the Lord Himself shall descend from Heaven with a shout, the voice of the archangel. It s eagle time. What are you looking down for? Look up. Rise and let us go hence. Look up. We were promised a message for today. Did we receive the message? Did it go forth in 1933? Was it vindicated before the whole world in 1963 when the Pillar of Fire, the Lord, the Voice of the Seventh Angel, when the...when each angel came down in the room there and the Pillar of Fire and spoke out, The white horse rider is the pope. Follow me now? You see what I mean now? Then the prophet preached The Unveiling Of The Mighty God. God...before you reach the Promise Land, God comes down and reveals Himself in human flesh. He did it with Moses, amen, as a sign

24 20 that we re on our way to restored faith. We re going to the Promise Land. Did it with Abraham also. I m going to prove that. So then, what has transpired today? Called...therefore the Word Message has called out seeds by the Word. How did it do it? The son of man revealed himself today. Is that right? Stood right there and called out the secrets of the hearts. But a prophet when he s doing it always speaks hence. For he says, he will come and do it, while he s doing it. See what I mean now? Then it goes over top of their heads. They miss it then. They say what, where, where, where? He just did it. Because he called out Brother Hunte, said, Your name is Mr. Hunte, and your praying for your sister, she has asthma. And he said, I m his friend. He called me his...the Holy Ghost called me his friend. So therefore, can t anybody get in between us with different tales and things. Don t try it. For God called us friends, in the Tabernacle. He said, That s Mr. Coleman, your friend. And his father had a stroke. That s Thus saith the Lord. Then I couldn t hold it back. I had to let it go. It s on the tape there. Praise God. I had to shout, for it was revealed to me who he was. Amen. So then we know, we see then that this promise Word, Malachi 4, had life to it. It was anointed, and that s what made us turn. The life in him, see, made you turn to that Word. If you could be sitting anywhere and hear a tape, and hear the prophet on a tape, you say, That sounds real, that s different. Amen. That s LIFE speaking to you. That s God revealed in human flesh speaking to you. That s why. God Himself speaking out of human flesh revealing it to your heart. He said, I ll turn your heart back. Before that, your heart was in some old dead Pentecostal church somewhere. Amen. But He said, I ll come and restore your heart back to the Word Message. Did He do it? Are you sitting here? Amen. He must of done it. Amen. You don t know how close the rapture is. So then we find then that the seed germ in the prophet was imparted to us by the written Word, is that right, for the hour. And we received it. But we just can t get that power. Amen. We want to pray in the spirit. We want to preach with power. But you want to...you can t do it, can you? See what I mean now? You re waiting to be quickened. It must be quickened first. Amen. All the scriptures must be fulfilled first, you see.

25 21 A corn of wheat must be cut down by the Lord, bruised and so forth, and offered back up to God on the wings of a snow white dove. Don t miss that. So therefore, we find that afterwards, when the message come, Malachi 4, then the message must live to be quickened. For the body is dead right now. Is that right? This body s dead. The body of Christ is dead. The body without the Spirit is dead. The Spirit hasn t come yet, cause it s just laying there, a sleeping giant. Now the scriptures says that it s laying there, sleeping. That s right. So we find then that the dead body, the Spirit of God make it live. But God has a law. For in St. John 16, He told them that...used a parable, used a natural woman. That when she is in travail, that she must have sorrow first, see. She had her sorrow when He died, the Corn of Wheat died, she had her sorrow. But He rose from the dead the third day. Is that right? Then she had joy. For at the end of the third day. The third day started in the end-time in Is that right? He was the same yesterday, today, and forever. He told those...he told Mary and them, Martha and them there. Go tell my brethren. Is that right? Well, He appeared in Azusa Street in Go tell my brother that I live. I speak in tongues. I also heal the sick, see dreams and visions. It came forth in Is that right? But just go tell them that I m the same yesterday, today, and forever. That was the message. That s all they had. See what I mean now? But in the evening time, at the end of the third day, He walked through the walls. That s this time now. Amen. It s in this hour now; great power is gonna be loose upon the earth. Resurrection, see. Right through the walls. He just told them, Touch me not, you can t handle me now. But you go tell them that I m the same yesterday, today, and forever. But at the end of the third day, the eagles can handle the Word. Touch me, handle me, feel me. Amen. At the end of the third day. St. John: 20, I believe it is. Whatsoever you bind shall be bound in Heaven. Whatsoever you loose, shall be loosed in Heaven. Amen. So then we find, but the body must live. Abraham s a type. He s the father of the faith. Is that right? Now notice now, God appeared in many forms to Abraham. Voices, light, and a man. Is that right? Well, God appeared to you,

26 22 Abraham s seed, and Luther, and Wesley, and all of those, in many forms too. He appeared as a blade. Amen. He appeared as a tassel, as a husk, and now, He s appearing as a seed that is waiting to be quickened by the Holy Ghost. Is that right? But now, let us go back to the scriptures, and we have to type this out, see, cause it s in the Word. Amen. So, it s in the evening time when Sodom was just about to be burned. Two angels had gone down and delivered their message to Lot, the worldly church. Those who believed the message. Now listen now, get this now. Abraham, the prophet, was called out of the world with Lot. He didn t tell Lot...but Lot came along with him, but God didn t tell him to bring Lot, but Lot came. He wasn t predestinated to go in the Bride, but he came anyway. He saw the signs, you know, saw the healing, but he come. So therefore, when another Abraham prophet come, Lot came also. Followed him in the wilderness. Lived in the world, did all kind of filth, and still doing it. See what I mean now? And then believe it, and they re still doing it. See what I mean now? But they had to come. But the elected seed of God. Those women stopped cutting their hair right away. Seed of God. They listen to their message right away. Seed of God. See what I mean now? So therefore, to prove it, Lot could not stay with Abraham, for his congregation argued with Abraham s congregation. They always do. The worldly ones will always argue with you if you try to live holy, if you re always trying to do the will of your Father, they ll purge you out. That s right. They have to do it. They re ordained to do that. So therefore, take no thought. Just let them sit there, and let them keep talking, let them keep wanting to do what they want to do. Just let them go on. Let them curse you. God has bidden them to do it to purge you, to make you a little sweeter. Amen. To take it out of you, wash you in the water, to wash you in that washing machine. They do it in the house of God. Where at? In God s house they do it. Unbelievers, make-believers, sitting right in God s house. Not the man outside, he don t bother you out there. He doesn t even know you. Is that right? Those in God s house do it, see. So therefore, and they hate you if you believe that Word. Oh, they...that s Lot, see.. So then, we find then that at that time, Abraham,
