1 By. Bro. Jorge A. Hernández Missionary Pastor INTRODUCTION We are pleased to present you these books, which are being edited under the general subject of: The Promised Restoration. They are introductory themes, meant for people who don t know the message brought by the seven angel of Revelation 10: 7. They are being written for the benefit of those believers who would like to obtain this information and are being given, free of charge, to those who request them. We want to explain that we are not trying to convince anyone. But we feel a responsibility toward the persons who have not heard the teachings brought by Bro. William M. Branham, whose prophetic name is Elijah, who was commissioned by God to restore all things. (Saint Matthew 17: 11) So, any error, that can be proved by the Bible or by the message of Elijah, should be attributed to our inexperience. May the Word of God, in unity with history, be our judge. Taking also into consideration the good intentions we have to let this humble work reach your hands.

3 (First part) And I will restore to you the years that the locust hath eaten, the cankerworm, and the caterpiller, and the palmerworm, my great army which I sent among you. (Joel 2: 25) And his disciples asked him, saying, why then say the scribes that Elias must first come? And Jesus answered and said unto them, Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things. (Matthew 17: 10-11) The Promised Restoration. This is the theme we will be studying at this time. RESTORE is return, reclaim, etc. It means: To return to its original owner, or return to, its original state or condition. Man was god, king, and lord of the earth, the place where God, King and Lord of the universe had placed him, and from which position he fell. And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth. ( Genesis 1: 26 ) We can note 4 principle things that man lost: 1) Power of the spoken Word. (Speak and it comes to pass.) 2) Dominion over Nature. (Every thing obeyed him.) 3) Divine Companionship. (God and man together.) 4) Eternal Life. (He could not die while he was in his original position, on the basis that he stays on the pure unadulterated Word.) In Genesis 2: 15-19, we find the following things: 15) God put man in the Garden. 16) God told him to eat of all the trees. 17) He forbade him to eat of the tree of knowledge, of good and evil. 18) God made a helpmate. (Woman) 19) God gave him power to name the animals. In this condition, there was no death, sickness, or affliction; neither anything that could disturb the Eternal Life he possessed. ****************************************************************** 3

4 (First part, continued) Man lost this position when the woman allowed Satan, through the serpent, to deceive her, and thus introduced death. Man was the king of the earth, the maximum authority over it. (You can read Psalms 8: 5-6) The apostle Paul speaking of this Psalm, said: Thou hast put all things in subjection under his feet. For in that He put all in subjection under him, He left nothing that is not put under him. But now we see not yet all things put under him. (Hebrews 2: 8) What is the apostle Paul showing us? That man lost that authority, that dominion, that quality of king, god, and lord. So we see that even nature turned against man. The earth began to produce thorns and thistles to harm his body. (Genesis 3:18) The man began to cry for Restoration, to return to his original condition. And so God s plan began to unfold to restore man to where he d fallen. We find out that God knew these things before they happened. How did He know it? Through Foreknowledge or knowledge of former things. It s like the apostle Paul told us: And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called according to this purpose. For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His son... ( Romans 8: ) What is the purpose of God? To return to man what is his, what Satan deceitfully took from him. And this is what we know as Restoration. Bro. Branham said:... When man sinned, he separated himself from God and crossed a great chasm and put himself in death on this side. He left; there s no way back But then when he did, God accepted a substitute, which was a lamb... On that side he s a Son of God; he s an offspring from God. He s an inheritance of the earth. He can control nature. He can speak into existence. Why, he s a creator himself. He's an offspring of God... But when he crossed, he separated his sonship... But God sent down from heaven Bleach for sin. It was the Blood of His own Son What happens to the son? He becomes in perfect fellowship with the Father again... God In Simplicity Jeff. IN.

5 (Second part) Now, we see that through God s foreknowledge, He saw all that was needed to restore man to his original position. And so He saw the need for a Redeemer someone to pay the price for the sin of man. So before the foundation of the world. He planned for a Redeemer to come; worthy, not stained by sin, and not conceived through sex. Forasmuch as we know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things... But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without spot. Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you. (1 Peter 1: ) Now, we see that God s plan is perfect, and the necessary pieces have been placed to Restore all things. So we can say that the Restoration depends on Redemption. Let s take the word Redeem which is Rescue. It means: to buy something that was formerly owned and sold. (Buy back what was sold.) Because of this, God accepted a substitute (lamb) as a shadow, type or figure, until the real lamb came (Jesus Christ.) That s how Abel received the revelation to sacrifice animal blood. (Genesis 4: 3-4 and Hebrews 11: 4) When Abraham was going to sacrifice his son, God provided a lamb in his place. (Genesis 22: 8-13) Before the Israelites came out of slavery in Egypt, God ordered the blood of one lamb shed per family. (Exodus 12: 3) Forasmuch then as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, He also Himself likewise took part of the same; that through death He might destroy him that had the power of death, that is the devil; ( Hebrews 2: 14 ) It was up to God to rescue man. After all, man was made in God s image, and the Attribute of Saviour was in God. That s why He dressed Himself in flesh, to be able to die, because as an Eternal Spirit, He could not. That s how we see God coming on the scene, in His own plan, to start the work that no one else could do. So the Redemption buys and the Restoration reclaims. God Himself does this through vessels called PROPHETS. 5

6 (Third part) Restore is Return, it means: To return to its original owner, or to return to its original state or condition. This word is similar to the word Claim which means: Ask or demand something by rights. The word Redeem means: Buy back what was sold. To understand this we need to fully understand that Redemption buys and Restoration reclaims what was bought. And God does this work. He Redeems and Restores. How does He do it? The Bible says in Saint John 4: 24,...God is a Spirit... And a Spirit is an immaterial being, that in order to manifest itself in a material world needs a body to declare its existence. We find that God has manifested Himself in many different ways at different times. In Moses case, he saw God in a flame of fire in a bush that would not burn. (Exodus 3: 2-4) The invisible God cannot be seen, and when he wanted to see Him, God told him:... And he said, Thou canst not see my face: for there shall no man see me, and live.... and thou shalt see my back parts: but my face shall not be seen. ( Exodus 33: ) We see that this relates to what it says in Saint John 1: 18, No man hath seen God at any time, the only begotten Son, which is in the bosom of the Father, he hath declared Him. An the apostle Paul said the same: Who only hath immortality, dwelling in the light which no man can approach unto; whom no man hath seen, nor can see. (I Timothy 6: 16) So we can say that the only way that man can see God, is through a body, this is why in order to bring Redemption, He had to become visible through the Lord Jesus Christ, Who became the visible part of God. The Lord Jesus said to Philip:... Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? He that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou [then], Shew us the Father?... (John 14: 9) So the thought we are bringing is that God needs a body to work, and for Redemption He used His own body (temple) that had the name of Jesus. HOW WILL HE PERFORM THE RESTORATION? Jesus said: Elijah truly shall first come, and Restore all things. (Matthew 17: 11) Who is this Elijah and what will his work be? To find out, we need to read those verses which speaks of another Elijah: But I say unto you, That Elias is come already, and they knew him not, Then the disciples understood that he spake unto them of John the Baptist. (Matthew 17: 12-13) We see two different Elijahs here. One for the First coming of the Lord, who was John the Baptist, and the other for the Second Coming, in the future. 6

7 (Third part, continued) Let us study the first one. His human name was John, and they called him The Baptist. His prophetic name was Elijah, according to Malachi 4: 5 and the first part of the verse 6. Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet... And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, In the book of St. Luke 1: 13 to 17 it says:... and thy wife (Elisabeth) shall bear thee a son, and thou shalt call his name John. And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers... (Luke 1: 13-17) Through these scriptures, we see that their fulfillment begins in the moment that these persons enter into the action, becoming manifest on the earth. What was the job that John had to complete? To prepare the way so that the coming of the Lord could come to pass. The voice of him that crieth in the wilderness, Prepare ye the way of the LORD, make straight in the desert a highway for our God. Behold, the Lord GOD will come with strong [hand], and his arm shall rule for him... He shall feed his flock like a shepherd... (Isaiah 40: ) Verse 3 speaks of the forerunner to the first coming of the Lord. Verses 10 and 11, speak of the coming of the Lord. Let us take one more witness: Behold, I will send my messenger, and he shall prepare the way before me: and the Lord, whom ye seek, shall suddenly come to his temple... (Malachi 3: 1) We see that Malachi spoke of the coming of the forerunner and the coming of the Lord, just as Isaiah did. In the day of his ministry, John quoted the prophesy to the religious men of that time. He said, I [am] the voice of one crying in the wilderness, Make straight the way of the Lord, as said the prophet Esaias (John 1: 23) We hear Jesus clearing up the subject: For this is [he], of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee. And if ye will receive [it], this is Elias, which was for to come. (Matthew 11: 10 to 14) So, by the scriptures we have read, we can clearly see that John was the forerunner for the first Coming of the Lord, and that his human name was John and Elijah (Elias) was his prophetic name. Another thing we can see is that in only one scripture, we can find two (2) different works. Matthew 17:12 and 13 talk of John the Baptist, the Elijah for the first coming of the Lord. And the first part of Malachi 4: 6, speaks of his job. Turn the heart of the FATHERS TO THE CHILDREN. But the second part of Malachi 4:6, speaks of another job: Turn the heart of the children TO THE FATHERS... This is the job of the other Elijah, Be who would restore all things. (Matthew 17: 11) 7

8 (Fourth part) Now, we observe that for the first coming of the Lord, a messenger was needed to prepare the way. This pertained to John the Baptist, as we read: And he shall go before him in the spirit and power of Elias, to turn the hearts of the fathers to the children, and the disobedient to the wisdom of the just... (St. Luke 1: 17) Who were the fathers? The Patriarchs, many of whom died waiting for the great promise of the coming of the MESSIAH. That why Jesus said: For all the prophets and the law prophesied until John. (Matthew 11: 13) What did they prophesy? THE COMING OF THE MESSIAH, because under the dispensation of the Law and the Prophets, who were under the sacrifice of bulls and goats, they prophesied THE COMING OF THE LORD. John was the last prophet to come under the dispensation of the Law, to announce the coming of CHRIST. His ministry was so similar to the ministry of the Messiah, that people confused him with Christ. (St. John 1: 25) But what would the message to the children be? The fulfillment of what the law and the prophets had announced. In other words, The Message of Grace. Grace took away some rituals, and put others in their place. For example: There would no longer be animal blood shed for sacrifice. All they had to do was believe in He who was to come. The one who would baptize them with the Holy Ghost and Fire. (St. Matthew 3:11) And in this type, John INTRODUCED Water Baptism because God had revealed the secret to him. The next day John seeth Jesus coming unto him, and saith, Behold the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world... And I knew him not: but he that sent me to baptize with water, the same said unto me, Upon whom thou shalt see the Spirit descending, and remaining on him, the same is he which baptizeth with the Holy Ghost. (St. John 1: 29-33) Do you think it was easy for the religious men of that time to leave their traditions and the message that Moses had given them under the ancient pact? To accept a new message, one that told them to repent and be baptized in water, believing in He who was to come after John? (Acts 19: 4) NO! It wasn t easy, but it was John s job, to show the believers of the Law (The Fathers) that there was another message different from the traditional one, they had corrupted with their own interpretations. Later on, Jesus told them the one same thing. [Ye] hypocrites, well did Esaias prophesy of you, saying, this people draweth nigh unto me with their mouth, and honoureth me with [their] lips; but their heart is far from me. But in vain they do worship me, teaching [for] doctrines the commandments of men. (Matthew 15: ) 8

9 (Fourth part, continued) We see that it wasn t easy to turn the hearts of the Fathers to the Children, but that s was John s job. Did you notice that not in one scripture does it say that John would restore something? If you would like, search for just one that say John would restore or restored something. We assure that you won t find one, and for only one reason! BECAUSE THE RESTORATION WAS WRITTEN FOR THE END TIME The Restoration would be brought by another prophet like John, but in another dispensation; The dispensation of Grace. Repent ye therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before was preached unto you: Whom the heaven must receive until the times of restitution of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began. (The Acts 3: ) Why did the apostle Peter say that the heaven must receive Jesus until the time of Restoration had come? HE WASN T SPEAKING OF THE FIRST COMING! Because he said this after Jesus had already gone, and the Holy Spirit already dwelled in the disciples. This shows us that the Restoration was in the future, and Jesus said: Elijah would restore all things. (Matthew 17: 11) We see that this is where the second part of Malachi 4: 6 comes in: Turn the heart of the children to their fathers... Who are the children in this case? If this were to happen in the end time. Then the children would be those living in that time. And if that time is today, because all of the signs are manifesting, then We are the children that must have our hearts turned back to the faith of our Fathers. And who are the Fathers? THE APOSTLES We must have the faith that they had, because the Bible says: Wherefore remember, that ye [being] in time past Gentiles in the flesh, who are called Uncircumcision by that which is called the Circumcision in the flesh made by hands; That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel, and without God in the world: Now therefore ye are no more strangers and foreigners, And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ himself being the chief corner [stone]; (Ephesians 2: ) 9

10 (Fourth part, continued) So Christ comes to be the Principle motive for the work of these (2) Elijahs that we are speaking of. One came to prepare the first coming of Jesus Christ, and the other coming to restore all things, so that Jesus Christ can come for the second time. Because the heavens must receive (Jesus Christ) until the time for the Restoration of all things. (Acts 3: 21) When would this be? Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: (Malachi 4: 5) This scripture speaks of the first and the second Elijah in verse 6, just in two different times and for two different works. We know that the great and terrible day is The Great Tribulation, The day of God s judgments. And this is part of the Second Coming of the Lord, which brings two things: First: Mercy through the warning message. Second: Judgment to those who reject. At what hour and in what time? But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, [that] at evening time it shall be light. (Zechariah 14: 7) As a reference, we would like to quote what brother William M. Branham the prophet to the end time said: Just as John was giving his message, the same time that Messiah come in the days... John knew he would see Him, because he was going to introduce Him. And we realize that in the Scriptures over in Malachi 4, there's to be a one like John, an Elijah, to whom the Word of God can come to, and he is to reveal by the Holy Spirit all the mysteries of God and restore the faith of the children back to the faith of the apostolic fathers: Seven Seals. The Breach. Jeff. IN. Sunday E (page 74. English book) 10

11 (Fifth part) Our question is: what will be restored? First, we should remember that God quarreled with Israel as a nation. The Gentiles weren t even in the picture, and now, because of Jesus Christ, we can take part in His promises through the Gospel. The apostle Paul explains this: That at that time ye were without Christ, being aliens from the commonwealth of Israel... But now in Christ Jesus ye who sometimes were far off are made nigh by the blood of Christ. (Ephesians 2: 12-13) So what will be Restored is what the Palmerworm, the Cankerworm, the Caterpil lar, and the Locust have eaten. What they ate was the Bride Tree ( Church ) that God planted on the day of Pentecost. Let us observe the part that applies to the Gentile people, and how Joel saw it: He hath laid my vine waste, and barked my fig tree: he hath made it clean bare, and cast [it] away; the branches thereof are made white. (Joel 1: 7) The field is wasted, the land mourneth; for the corn is wasted: the new wine is dried up, the oil languisheth. Be ye ashamed, O ye husbandmen; howl, O ye vinedressers, for the wheat and for the barley; because the harvest of the field is perished. The vine is dried up, and the fig tree languisheth; the pomegranate tree, the palm tree also, and the apple tree, [even] all the trees of the field, are withered: because joy is withered away from the sons of men. (Joel 1: ) From these scriptures we can take 4 important things. They are: Corn, New wine, Oil, Harvest. CORN (Wheat) = Represents the Word NEW WINE = Stimulation of the Revelation OIL = = = = Holy Spirit HARVEST = Crop, Fruit, Proceeds, etc. So we can say that the first character, The Palmerworm: (*) is a small worm that ate the fruit of the tree the harvest; the first fruits of the Spirit, which are: Love, Joy, Peace, etc. (Galatians 5: 22) The Cankerworm: (*) is the second stage of the change this animal naturally goes through, It passes through a metamorphosis (change.) So it is the same animal in a changed form. The Cankerworm ate the leaves which is divine Fellowship. Then men began to say with us or with no one. The presence of the Spirit left the place and men began to form groups with their own ideas. In the third place we have The Caterpillar, (*) which ate The Bark which covers the tree. A Cover represents: Religion, Doctrine, which was the teaching of the Word in its purity, unadulterated, which is Jesus Christ, The Grain of Wheat. (John 12: 24) (*) We are using it, like a Spiritual representation (Editor) 11

12 (Fifth part, continued) The fourth and final stage in the development of this animal is, The Locust (*) this, in the natural, sucks out the Life. This is the Holy Spirit, typified by Oil which permitted the wise virgins to enter the wedding. (Matthew 25: 4-10) Therefore, through the dark ages of the Church, God permitted the Life to be hidden in the root. This is because in His plan, He would revive (Restore) His Bride Tree (Church) This Tree would pass through 7 seasons or 7 ages, and for each season, God would have a messenger. We can prove this in Revelation 1: 20. The mystery of the seven stars which thou sawest in my right hand, and the seven golden candlesticks. The seven stars are the angels of the seven churches: and the seven candlesticks, which thou sawest, are the seven churches. (Rev. 1: 20) According to the history books, these Seven Churches were situated in Asia Minor. They were chosen for their characteristics, which represented each age that the Church would pass through. So God would have 7 angels, which are 7 messengers, one for each Gentile age. They are: Ephesus, Smyrna, Pergamos, Thyatira, Sardis, Philadelphia and Laodicea. (Revelation 1: 11) God determined that the first angel would come to the first age of the Church (Ephesus.) This was the apostle and prophet Paul, who placed the Foundation.... Ye are God's husbandry, [ye are] God's building. According to the grace of God which is given unto me, as a wise masterbuilder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. (1 Corinthians 3: 9-10) We know that the foundation is Jesus Christ, but Paul knew that other messengers would come to work on God s building, (The Church) In this manner we see that God also determined that the seventh angel would come at the end of the seventh church age, (Laodicea) to bring the final part of The Restoration. According to Revelation 10: 7, the seventh angel would finish The Mystery of God. This is how we find the mystery of restoration. If Satan destroyed the bride Tree with 4 messengers of death, God will restore it through 4 messengers of Life. The Restoration started with Martin Luther in the time of the Reformation. * He was the fifth messenger to the fifth age of the church (Sardis) with a message of Justification (Romans 5: 1) Afterwards, John Wesley came, the sixth messenger to the age of Philadelphia, with a message of Sanctification. (Hebrews 13: 12-13) * (Before Luther, other men began the Reformation, but Martin Luther sealed that movement.) 12

13 (Fifth part, continued) In the third place, the Pentecostal movement appears. It began in 1906, the messenger being the Holy Spirit. It brought The Restoration of the Gifts through the Baptism of the Holy Ghost at the beginning of the Laodicean church age. In fourth place and at the end of Laodicea, God sent the seventh star, the seventh messenger, William Marrion Branham. His prophetic name, just as was John the Baptist s, is Elijah. He came to bring Total Restoration by the Word, to reveal the Mysteries. But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets. (Revelation 10: 7) As a reference, we would like to quote what brother William M. Branham the prophet to the end time said: Now, how great is God's grace to reveal His secrets to us in this day. Now, we all will believe that we're living in the last day... And remember, the secrets were to be revealed in the last day. (The Second Seal. Jeff. IN. 03/19/63 Page 182 English book) You know, He could do this same thing today. He d come right on the scene and produce the same things He did then as He said He would. See? He promised to do it. He promised to do it. And if He would do the same things... The Laodicea messenger is supposed to do it; and then if the Laodicea church sees it done, they'll do just exactly like the Hebrew church did at the beginning. See? No matter how well vindicated it is, all they do it anyhow. Oh, my. (Third Seal Jeff. IN. Page 261) 13

14 (Sixth part) Our question in this part is: How would we know what the Palmerworm, Cankerworm, Caterpillar, and Locust ate? By the ministry of seventh angel of Revelation10: 7. He would reveal the Mystery of Restoration. How would we identify him? Through the ministry that had to unfold. Before you can identify any prophet, his work has to unfold. Because it s not by his person, but by his work that he becomes known. Let us take a parallel between Joel 2:25 and Revelation 6:1-8. We observe that the Revelation of the Seven Seals that God revealed through the seventh angel showed the hidden mystery. PALMERWORM == WHITE HORSE (Revelation 6: 1-2) CANKERWORM == RED HORSE (Revelation 6: 3-4) CATERPILLAR == BLACK HORSE (Revelation 6: 5-6) LOCUST ======= PALE HORSE (Revelation 6: 7-8) In Revelation 6: 1-2. A mysterious horseman appeared riding a horse that was originally white. As his work of destruction unfolded, the color changed. (As a metamorphosis) Remember that a beast (animal) in the Bible represents A Power So, as this mysterious rider that held this power develops his work, his power changes color. We see how the Revelation of this mystery describes it: And I saw when the Lamb opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it were the noise of thunder, one of the four beasts saying, come and see. (Revelation 6: 1) Here we see that God also has four animals (powers) to resist the power of the mysterious horseman. To be able to continue, let us first identify these animals that announce the opening of the first four seals. And the first beast [was] like a lion, and the second beast like a calf, and the third beast had a face as a man, and the fourth beast [was] like a flying eagle. (Revelation 4: 7) 14

15 (Sixth part, continued) So, the first animal (Rev. 6: 1-2) that announces the coming of the white horse is the Lion. This typifies the lion of the tribe of Juda. CHRIST! Through the influence of His Life, took this age to resist the power of the Antichrist. (1 John 4: 3) The Antichrist was introducing a doctrine that was contrary to the Word. It would destroy the fruits of the Spirit. This horseman on the white horse came out with a bow with no arrows, showing that he was a bluffer. The spirit of Antichrist demonstrating purity. The second animal (Rev. 6: 3-4) that announces the coming of the red horse, is the calf, the power that God raised in the form of a sacrificial spirit, it was in this stage that the white horse was stained red with the blood of the martyrs, It was the power of the calf, which is a sacrificial animal, that came out to move among the Christian people. The third animal (Rev. 6: 5-6) is the face of man that announces the coming of the black horse, this was the Dark Age. But God used the intelligence of man. And this is where MARTIN LUTHER stands out in the Reformation to begin the Restoration of the seed that was buried during the Dark Age. The fourth animal (Rev. 6: 7-8) that announces the coming of the pale horse is the eagle. This was the time that the prophet of Rev. 10: 7 would appear to reveal the Mysteries. He would show that the mysterious horseman that was riding on the pale horse was Satan who now carried the name, DEATH. It started as the spirit of Antichrist, planting a false doctrine based on human dogmas and creeds, brought by false teachers. This would finally bring spiritual death to the people that accepted a substitute in place of the pure Word. 15

16 (Sixth part, continued) So this is why God promised to Restore all things through Elijah. He would come before The Great Tribulation, according to (Malachi 4: 5) and (Matthew 17: 11) in order to clear up these things for the seed of God, that they not be deceived. (Matthew 24: 24) This is how The Restoration prepares the way for meeting of Jesus with the Bride in the air. 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 shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. (1 Thessalonians 4: 16-17) In this way, it has been declared the Mystery of the Restoration, So that the people of God can prepare themselves for the encounter with the King of Kings and Lord of Lords, OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST. Finishing, we would like to quote the words of the prophet of God to the end time William M. Branham: We find out this Lamb opened the Seal. The first beast was a lion, the living creature... on this here, we find that this fellow here is an eagle,...in other words, there s four different ages of it. There was an age of the lion. And we find out that this being the fourth age... And he said, "Come and see the fourth mystery of the Book of Redemption that s been hidden in this Book. Come, see. " And John went to see, and he saw a pale horse and again the same rider upon this pale horse. Now, he has a name called death....but anything that's anti, that's against the real, has to be death because there are only two subjects: that's Life and Death. And that proves that the Holy Spirit s revelation of this in this day is exactly the Truth. The anti, he s death, because the Word (as we'll see later here) is Life. See? And this man is called Death. (The Fourth Seal. Jeff. IN. Pages English book) 16
