The 7 Earthly Angels spoke on earthThe Word Bride Body on earth utters 7 Thunders (Voices)

with the Word opened. . . . . . .

Friday, Sept. 20, 1974 The following inspirationwas given to me between 10:30 AM and 11:00 AM

The 7 Thunders are the 7 Voices of the 7 Church Ageswhich are 7 Manifestations of the Holy Spirit into the church as

Faith Lived VoiceVirtue " "Knowledge " "Temperance " "Patience " "Godliness " "Brotherly Kindness " "

7 Voices to build the Perfect Church to be capped off with theCapstone. 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 liveand manifest Brotherly Kindness as her Virtue of her age.

Therefore when Charity falls the Bride will manifestnot one Virtue but she will actually manifest

7 Voices as Thunder to shake the devil’s kingdom

The 7th Angel goes forth after the 7 Seals open with the7 last Mysteries Thunders Voice Of Godto restore back The Faith to the remnant.

The Word that was in the early church as one Voice Of God isspaced 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 upRevival for her

The 7 Voices thundered out in the Bride7 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 ageThe 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 God also bearing them witness, both with signs andwonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the HolyGhost, according to his own will?

Heb 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and forever.

1(Singing: “There Is A River”)

Shalom. Praise God. I just forgot to remember Brother Obi,Sister Grace is here with us from Pennsylvania this morning also. Theycame up to have fellowship with us. We’re certainly happy to wel-come them into the House of the Lord.

Well we feel relaxed now? The peace of God is upon you?Praise the Lord. Now maybe I trust and pray after the message you’llunderstand why I sang that. Let us turn to the Word of the Lord as westand to give respect to the reading of the Word. Isaiah the 21st chap-ter, verse 11 and 12, if you’re writing the Scriptures down. I Peter; I’msorry, II Peter the 1st chapter, verse 15 through 21 and Revelation the2nd chapter, verse 26 through 29. I’m gonna read from Isaiah the 21stchapter. I’m reading from the 11th verse:

The burden of Dumah, He calleth to me out of Seir, Watchman, what of the night? Watchman, what of the night?The watchman said, The morning cometh, and also the night:if ye will inquire, inquire ye: return, come.II Peter the 1st chapter, verse 15:Moreover I will endeavour that ye may be able after mydecease to have these things always in remembrance.For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when wemade known unto you the power and coming of our LordJesus Christ, but were eye-witnesses of his majesty.For he received from God the Father honour and glory, whenthere came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, Thisis my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when wewere with him in the holy mount.We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto yedo well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in adark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in yourhearts:Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of anyprivate interpretation.For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but

2holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.And Revelation 2:26:And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works unto the end,to him will I give power over the nations:And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the vessels of apotter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I received ofmy Father,And I will give him the morning star,He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith untothe churches.May the Lord add a blessing upon the reading of His Word.

Just to breathe a word of prayer. Father, we can only read Thy Word,but it takes the Holy Spirit to breathe life into it.

Now dear God, may You take the written Word from the Bible,the anointed Word in my heart and unite them together with the Pres-ence of the Holy Spirit and bring out some eagle food this morningthat we might be able to strengthen ourselves and be able to fly aboveall the darkness and gloom in the world today. We pray Father and weask this in Jesus’ Name and His sake. Amen. You may be seated.

To give a little title this morning, I’d like to title this littlethought, “The Morning Star.” And speaking about a burden over herein Isaiah, the prophets received messages, oracles from God, of judg-ment against Syria and the different countries and Babylon and Jerusa-lem when the Jews got out of cater with God, and they would receivea burden would fall upon them, something weighty, heavy.

And the Prophet of God would be under the inspiration of theHoly Spirit and that man wouldn’t be himself again until he deliveredthat burden. And that’s just the way a minister preaches. He’s homestudying and so forth and God drops something weighty upon him.Sometimes it’s joy, sometimes it’s digging out and culling in and pull-ing out.

But it’s from the Lord and He’s not finished, He’s not restfuluntil He delivers that burden. And so a burden is a heavy, weightything, it’s a message, an oracle concerning judgment. And it’s heavybecause the wrath of God is in it. And it is grievous for the Prophet todeclare it.

3And nobody wants to bring a message of judgment. You’d

rather bring glad tidings of joy, you see? But sometimes you have todo that. And then we can get a proper perspective of the ministry ofMalachi 4, what a weighty thing was upon his shoulders. For JesusChrist brought a message of salvation, the Day of Grace.

And He prophesied about his Second Coming. But all of theburden of His Second Coming and what’s to happen to the world thatwas tied up in the prophecy and bound by Seven Seals fell upon ahuman being, William Branham, to the entire world.

Then can you understand what that man went through? Whata weighty thing he had? And so then we can say, what about the weightof the Seven Seal message of judgment as it struck the earth? And sohow should we, the ministers that follow, that have been instructed inthe way, how we should be always careful to say what that messengerto the age says, and not change it with carnal thinking and go intoperversion.

And many change what the Prophet said through carnal think-ing. They put a carnal interpretation to the Message and then others,silly women run after them and blind leads the blind.

So I’m always, this is a weighty thing upon me, it’s heavy.And every time I walk into this pulpit there’s no thing of fun and play-ing and everything is fine and laughing and joking. No. This is theWord of the Lord. We hold the world in our hand here. All the peoplearound New York City.

The Prophet of God said that when God sends a pastor to acommunity, if God sends him, I mean, then in that community the manthat God sent is the pastor for the entire city. Now you figure outwhere the Message is at and then you figure out who God’s minister,the pastor, is in that city, no matter where it’s at now, in Europe orAfrica, wherever it’s at, then that’s God’s pastor of the hour.Then allthe rest of the pastors and the rest of them they are just false. Thenwhat a thing, what a weighty thing that God’s Pastor, His Man thatHe’s vindicating that He’s with, He’s speaking through, I mean what aresponsibility that they have to all the millions of people around them.Praise God. We got an understanding of the ministry now and whatit means and so forth? See? And when we see the hour that we’re

4living in now and it’s the darkest hour ever! It’s dark out here now.And hell is upon the earth and darkness is all over the earth and grossdarkness is upon the people because Isaiah 60 said so, it would be thatway.

And here we are now. And there’s unrest in the world every-where. They know that danger is at hand. And all kind of... they knowthat this is the end. And the children from this generation have raisedup and something inside tells them there’s no hope. So they live dan-gerously, they live, they don’t care, the young boys and girls, what-ever, “Let tomorrow take care of itself, today we’ll eat, drink and bemerry and take our drugs and do what we want to do because we knowwe are judged. Something inside of us tells us that. Our mother andfather are blind. They don’t know it but we know it. So God make ustestify of the danger.”

But the parents and the establishment don’t know it. And they’reself righteous in their polluted denominational churches and whatnot.And they rejected a Message from a Prophet! But the young childrenknow it’s the end and they know it’s darkness here. They know it’snighttime when creeping things crawl around at night and all the thingshappen at night.

And look at the lies and things going forth. They discoveredall of a sudden last month that there is no more energy. They’ve beenknowing it for a long time. But they just used this war with the Arabsas politics to bring it out now because they couldn’t say it before.

Now they can say it. They put it on the Arabs because theywon’t give us the oil, but we don’t have any more. And a speaker, CarlAlbert, I just heard him this morning, Albert, just said that we’re livingon borrowed time. Even if we can just get through this winter, whatabout the rest of the years?

And the Prophet of God spoke that! He said it would be thatway for polluting the earth and everything else. Man, it would back-fire on man and it has come to pass. And the world all of a sudden hasno more... they can’t get the oil. And the church can’t get the oil, thefoolish virgins looking for oil. Amen. In the natural, oil, in the spiri-tual, oil. And oh praise God, here we sit this morning, a Bride, withoil! And a promise: unlimited supply of oil! Praise God.

5No wonder I can praise Him. We don’t have to beg nobody to

come into the House of God! And in the very hour where the foolishvirgins are looking for oil, the nations are looking for oil, in the veryhour, God speaks and says, “Go to them that sell it.”

And they’re running to Arabs and trying to get oil. They got it.Amen. And then in this very hour when the oil itself, the wise virginstook extra vessels full of oil, the foolish virgins wouldn’t do it. Andthen when they come looking for some oil, He told them, “Go to thosethat sell it.”

And in this very hour, there are brothers going around saying,“I’ve got the Token.” Selling the oil! People running after men whosay, “I’ve got it. Come to me. I’ve got the Message. Come over tome.” And they’re selling the oil, so they think.

But we’ve already got it. We were wise. The oil is in theWord. Praise God. And they said, “There is nothing.” But there issomething! Amen. It’s oil. We’ll see it. And in this nighttime ofman’s history, evil is everywhere. This is the nighttime of the history.The morning started out way back in Adam’s time.

This is nighttime now. It’s all over with. And nothing but evilevery where. And even as a little type. We think about the animalsand I heard a story about a lion and a sheep and how the little lamb isinnocent and he don’t know, he’s just in God’s hands.

And a great big ferocious lion was after this little lamb in thebushes, he could smell him, he didn’t see him, he could smell him.And he crouched down behind tall grass. There’s the sneaking devil,as a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour, always sneaking aroundbehind something all the time, little sneaky messages and little sneakythoughts, little sneaky denominations and so forth, sneaking aroundtrying to devour the lambs.

And how God put something in the lambs, in the innocent ones,to sense the danger. They can tell, it’s funny. “Let’s get out of here.”There’s darkness somewhere approaching. There’s impending dangersomewhere. And the little lamb will scatter before that devouring roar-ing lion goes after.

And I’m thinking, praise God, this morning, that if God wouldfor natural lambs, animals, put something inside to warn them of the

6darkness and the danger and the troubles, what about some spirituallambs that God put a sixth sense, amen, something from the founda-tion of the world, a seed of faith, something when the dark hour, whenit come up, amen, and the end of the world, the little lambs and thechurches and around in the world, something, they felt inside inside.

“There’s danger everywhere.” Amen. And then God comedown and anointed the sixth sense and told them, “Look up for yourredemption draweth nigh.” There’s trouble everywhere, danger allround. Run for your lives. Run into the arms of Jesus Christ. We areHis lambs and He’s warned us by a faith, by anointing our faith to runfor our lives. Praise God.

So the darkness cannot take us over. And even speaking aboutlast week, how Elijah got up and ran before Jezebel got there. And ourElijah ran in ’63, four and five before Jezebel could overtake the world,and put a Message out and we got the Message before we could bedeceived! God warned the lambs and the lambs have come in with theShepherd. He got them in. They was out there lost. He left the 99 andwent to get the lost ones.

And every one of us was lost! And God has led us into thesheepfold. He said, “My sheep hear my voice and they follow mewither soever I go. And they won’t follow the false ones.” They’llfollow the Voice of Almighty God. And He’s led every one of us.

You’re lambs. He put something in you, a sixth sense. Amen.We’re in the corral, we’re in the fold. And the Shepherd is layingdown in the door outside, and they’ve got to come over on top of Himto get to you. Praise god. What a faith! And let them go roaring likea roaring lion, but the Shepherd is there to keep that lion back from us.Amen? Praise the Lord.

So therefore what happened? God set an alarm clock inside ofus. The faith is an alarm clock and it tells you the hour! Amen. It’s asilent alarm, only to you. You can be in a whole church, a big church,and God will just speak to a lamb and set an alarm off and warn theone person in a great big entire church there, just that one. He’s look-ing for the lambs, the little flock.

“Fear not little flock.” And He comes to get the little flock. SoHe set off an alarm in our hearts and we’re here this morning. Amen.

7He warned us that this is the end of the world. Praise God.

And to come out of these different churches and denomina-tions and come into the sheepfold, into the Word of God. And He toldus to get ready for the great hour, the time is short. And then He told usto wait for the Rapture! Amen. Now the Rapture is a revelation to theBride only. It’s only to the Bride.

So if you’re wondering why isn’t the place packed out? It’snot for them. It’s for the Bride. That’s why She’s sitting here today.Amen. Now the Rapture will only be revealed to Her. She will... andShe will be waiting for that revelation. She’s not gonna go out of theMessage, She’s not gonna go back in the world, She ain’t gonna runaround and fool around, She’s gonna sit and wait like that little meat-packer’s foreman’s cousin, I mean niece out there in the west.

The meat-packer’s son told her that he would marry her, hepromised her. And she stayed right there and she waited for the revela-tion that he would come and reveal himself to her to anoint his prom-ise with his person. Amen?

To make his word real that he promised to her, went away andcome back, his own person and then they could mate together. Amen?Praise the Lord. Are you getting it now? Praise God, we’re gettingsomething. We’re understanding what this Word means. We’re gonnaget into it plumb up to the elbow. Amen.

She was waiting for the revelation of the Rapture. When it’srevealed to Her, this faith that She’s got now, adding to it, becomesRapturing Faith! We’ve been restored back to the Apostle’s Faith andthis Faith is Rapturing Faith and it’s going to be revealed by the Personof the One who made the promise through a Messenger, comes Him-self to mate. The mating season is on. Did you get it?

Brother Branham said suffer the flesh of mighty men. Praisethe Lord. Mating season is on, here’s a thought for you. “Three KindOf Believers,” page 15. That’s the reason I do believe that when thatBride is called out, like we have been, and elected and we understandpredestination, amen, and set in the Book of Life. Let me say it again.

The Seventh Seal come down with a Shout! That was the Bookof Life. This season, Paul and Irenaeus and Polycarp, they opened theBook of Life back there and sealed away millions. Amen? But present

8tense, all was filthy, Laodicea, so the Book of Life come down to seewhose names is in the Book of Life.

So the Book of Life Himself just calls names, “Mary, James,John, come!” Come where? To the Book of Life! Come and set downin the Book, which is the Life, which is the Token, which is the Love,which is the Oil.

I don’t need nobody to run around today talking about, “I got itover here.” I got it right here. I was set in the Book of Life in 1963 andI shall not be moved! Let me say it again. Elijah didn’t know whetherthere was anybody. Then he pulled the Seal back, God did, opened theSeal up back there in Elijah’s time and Elijah looked and God said,“Come here Elijah. Look under the Seal here.” And he saw seventhousand.

And then God pulled back the Seventh Seal, “Unveiling OfThe Mighty God.” And then a couple of weeks later, he said, “Comehere Elijah, look under here, all is not lost. Here’s a little Bride march-ing, marching, the second Bride coming up.”

And he looked under the Seventh Seal and he saw you and I,coming again the second time. The first one went by, beautiful, thencome an old dirty witch, the world council and they went away andthey were gone.

But he said, “Oh Lord, is that all I’ve done? All of this preach-ing and everything else?” And then he heard beautiful strands of mu-sic. Strands of music, praise the Lord. And here come, He said, “Lookagain.” And here come you and I marching up from every state, fromevery nation around the world. You and I Brother Silah. Praise God.

Marching to the tune of the Word. Amen. Praise God. Thenmarching how? Here’s the Book of Life right here and here we comemarching, marched right into the Book. Marched right in and went inand sat down and took our places. Some are ministers, some are dea-cons and elders and helps and governments and sisters and brothersand husbands and wives, everybody took their place in the Book ofLife. And they’re abiding in the Word.

Now, praise God, you are... do you know you’re in the Book ofLife right now? Just last Thursday here, Thanksgiving, speaking here,the Holy Spirit in the pulpit, all of a sudden I was getting ready to close

9out and I said, “Oh Brother Ben, your bones is dry.”

And I went over to my mother’s house and he told me, he said,“The very moment you said that my bones was locking.” The HolySpirit spoke to him and said, “The Spirit of the Lord is coming uponyour bones.” Praise God. Do you know what I’m talking about?

The Holy Spirit is speaking, the Spirit speaks. The Spirit hasspoken. You are created words of God found under the Seventh Seal.Elijah pulled that Seal back and saw a vision of you marching. PraiseGod. And set you in there. You’re set. “I the Lord have planted byrivers of living water.”

There wasn’t no tree growing up out there. He took and pluckedyou and planted you in the Book of Life. Amen? He says... let me sayit again. That’s the reason I do believe that when that Bride is calledout, like you have been, and elected and set in the Book of Life, theMessage, every Word is the Book of Life. Careful, don’t add or takeaway, you take out your name. One jot or tittle, it might be your name.Just sit down in the Book of Life. Praise God.

And set in the Book of Life. Now watch. There’ll come asound from Heaven. What did I tell you last week? I hear the sound ofDynamics. Well it says here, there’ll come a sound from Heaven that’lltake such a Baptism of the Holy Spirit into that Bride after She’s in theBook. Oh praise God. The Holy Spirit into that Bride that’ll take Herfrom the earth in a Rapturing Grace. God promised it.

Well then how can you fret? What are you worrying about?Are you in the Book of Life? Then the same God that called you andelected you and predestinated you and set you in the Book, is gonnasend a sound from Heaven like a rushing mighty wind and is gonnasend a Baptism into you, oh praise God, it’s gonna reveal a RapturingGrace in the mating season and you’ll know that you know that youknow!

No more hoping and wondering and worrying! God cominginto you, exploding in you! Praise, what a faith! Then you count itworthy to be beaten for His Name. Then you’ll be ready to fill up thesufferings He left behind. I’ve got a baptism to be baptized with, abaptism of sufferings.

But when God reveals Himself to you in a Rapturing Grace,

10brother, Peter and them counted it joy. Those women gladly were cutand ripped open for they looked into the heavens and they saw the Sonof God sitting by the right hand smiling down upon them, oh, with theanointing of the ox came into them, praise God, a Rapturing Grace,God bestowed upon them.

And when that comes into you and I, oh praise God, nothingmeans nothing. You won’t be a scared of the Jews, the old religiousJews next door and whatnot. You’ll go out and you’ll gladly testify.

And if they beat you, if it’s God’s will, well you’ll go back andstand again in the same spot. Peter went right back and stood on thesame spot. God said, “Go back Peter for I have words to speak of lifeto this generation.” Praise God.

Rapturing Faith, Grace revealed. You say, “But how, when?”Just take it easy. 1961, were you here? Did you know what was gonnahappen here in ’73? Didn’t He bring you this far? Didn’t He feedyou? Did He take you from the sheep coat, keep you this way? PraiseGod. He ain’t never lost one. Never lost a battle.

When this happens, there’ll come a sound from Heaven, Godpromised it. Now this is to the overcomers. Praise the Lord. Theovercomers, there’s seven promises to them. They eat of the tree oflife. They’re not hurt of the second death. New name written. Givehim the morning star. White raiment. Pillar in the temple. Sit down inChrist’s Throne. The overcomers.

Now you see why I preach like I preach. Now there’s some-thing waiting for us at the end of the road. To the overcomers. To theones who are victorious. And He told us that we would become victo-rious in the Love Divine, in the Capstone, we will be victorious.

Now what does it mean to overcome? It means to keep theBook of Life in you. Did you get it now? It means to keep the Life thatcame into your spiritual wombs in you. Because false anointed oneswill come and try to take it out of you or pervert it with somethingadded or taken away.

But you fight like Jacob all night long; you wrestle to keep theWord in your souls. And we’ve been wrestling for nine years againstall darkness and anointed ones and all kind of... Brother Branham saidrumors are flying everywhere. And we are wrestling with the Lord.

11We will not let Him go, we’re holding on. Praise our God.

Now in following the Message we should live constantly inthe Life of Christ. And what is the Life of Christ? The Message, theBook of Life. So we the ministers that follow Elijah, we exhort you tothe Word, to the Word, never mind your imagination, never mind howyou feel. Back to the Word sister! Back to the Word brother!

I don’t care how you feel or what you think. Back to the Word!Stay in the Book of Life! You get it? That’s why the Word is preached.Not my ideas, no matter how you feel. I’ve got to give you the Word.I’m giving you Life. I’m giving you Life when I take you in the backand sit down to you and pull out the Sword. That’s the Book of Life.I’m telling you how to stay in.

I see you going this way and going that way. I’m telling youhow to get back in the Book. You walked in the Book, well stay in theBook! Amen. You lay around and do wrong things, you get rotten anddoty, praise God. Amen, see?

And then you become separated from the Life. And we laborand strive to keep you with the Life. Amen. So strive with all that’swithin you to stay in the Life, for the Life is the Token and it’s beenmade manifest. And you’ve got to know where, what’s going on withthat Token now, because you’ve got to get the season just right. Andwe’re in the season of applying the Token.

Now when you get over here where it’s to be displayed, wellokay, okay, then God will display it. But if somebody come aroundhere now trying to make you have the Life of Christ that’s supposed tobe over there in a different season, brother, you’ll wind up on an ashheap. You’ll try to do it yourself, “Hallelujah, I’m sorry.” It’ll befalse.

So God knew that so therefore the Prophet of God told us tohave Virtue, honey. Brotherly Kindness was our Virtue for this age.Amen? Praise the Lord. Now He set us in the Book of Life. He gaveus a test. He tested with the Word. Now that’s God’s test for everyage.

The overcomer, which you’re gonna overcome. He gives youa test. Now what are you crying about then? Thank God for the testthat you may be able to overcome. Suppose He left you in your Pente-

12costal Church and He didn’t give you nothing to overcome? Then youwouldn’t get not one of these seven awards here. It wouldn’t be toyou. But He called you out of your churches; give you a test to try youon the Word to see if you’re His children, to see if you believe it.

He that cometh to God must be tested. And that only shows ifyou are a true child or not. You cannot overcome unless you are givena test. Do we get that? Well then what are we crying about then? Thishappened and that happened. That’s your test. Suppose you didn’thave that? Then you wouldn’t have the Presence of God.

Suppose you didn’t have a fiery furnace? Suppose you didn’thave... wasn’t able to suffer the spirit of burning? See that’s a spirit ofburning, fire, the Word. It almost kills you. You can just about makeit. I know that. But it’s a fire. It’s a test. It’s the oven of God. He’sbaking us out.

I’d rather be in God’s oven than wait and go into the devil’soven down in hell, the lake of fire. That just come fresh. I hope thatafter today you will be happy for the test, for the oven on this side thanto go into the oven on the other side, the lake of fire. Oh praise God. Ithink that one got home. Amen. I think that woke us up.

Then we’ll stop crabbing and complaining and murmuring andpolluting, litter bugs. I can arrest you this morning. Amen. PraiseGod. A test is given to see whether you can overcome or not, likeJacob. He kept the Word in his soul all night. And Jesus said to himthat overcometh I will give these rewards.

So He called us out and set us in the Book of Life and told usthat there’s coming a sound from Heaven, a mighty Baptism of theHoly Ghost: it’s a promise. It’s coming. On, “God Of This Evil Age,”Brother Branham said why would God call out a people for His Namein this evil age? What for? He said to try Her on the Word, to give Hera test. That’s right there in, “God Of This Evil Age.” Give Her a test.

And then he says, to prove to Satan that this Bride today, youand I, is not like Eve. That’s our test. Eve couldn’t take all the Wordbut God said He’s gonna have a Bride that’s gonna take the Word be-cause they’re in the Book of Life. Amen.

Now that was a promise now. And that’s what happened in thebeginning. We’re gonna drive something down here now. In Genesis,

13was a promise to Adam and Eve, a promise now. It’s an oncomingthing. And God watches over His promise. He said now Adam andEve, He said, in the right season you’re going to multiply and replen-ish the earth with children like yourself.

But He didn’t reveal how it was going to be done yet. Whew.Now Eve at this time that the promise was given was not really Adam’swife yet. I’m just letting it soak in, see?

God had spoke it and there’s where the trouble came. Satanfound her before Adam did. And while God spoke it, it was just HisWord. It’s spoke, it’s His Word, He’s going to do it. Then you’ve gotto wait. Oh praise God. Today, Malachi 4 spoke promises. It wasspoken. That’s all! Praise the Lord.

He just spoke it. Malachi 4 said I’m gonna say some thingsand I’m not going to explain it. I’m going to speak it. You take it oryou don’t take it! And you’re not His wife yet. He must come in theright season and mate with you. But I will reveal the season and thetime to you.

But Eve couldn’t wait! So the devil got there through the ser-pent and told her, Eve, you don’t have to wait because God doth knowthat when you really know how to bring that Third Pull out here now,by going over here and all this koo-koo things, Eve got the false word.The false word. It perverted the original message, multiply and re-plenish. That’s all. He just spoke it. It’s His Word. He’ll take care ofit.

God knows how to take care of His own Word and also inter-pret it. God knew the interpretation of multiply and replenish. ButEve and Adam didn’t yet. It wasn’t revealed yet. God knows theinterpretation of Rapturing Faith. We don’t yet. It’s not revealed. Butshe’s waiting for the revelation. Amen. Praise God.

So the devil said, “No Eve, you don’t have to wait becauseBrother Branham said these things here in the house and on the hunt-ing trip and this is what he meant, p-s-s-s-t, a private revelation. Andlet’s do this, come on, p-s-s-s-t, I’ve got something for you.” And Everan all over the Message. And where are they today? All messed upon ash heaps.

And the Bride, she’s sitting in the sheepfold listening to the

14Word revealed day by day, waiting for God to come and reveal it. Isn’tthat wonderful? So now today one with the promised Word, Malachi4, the Seventh Seal Message, God has spoken through Malachi 4 HisWord and now we are espoused to Jesus. Amen?

Now watch, a little teaching here. Christ in the season is com-ing to mate with you to multiply and replenish. Praise God. In theseason, He’s coming to multiply and replenish. But like Esther He justtold you to get yourself ready with the oil and the myrrh and all thebeautiful things to clean up with. You understand what I’m talkingabout now? Get yourself beautified. Get the gown ready. Get every-thing ready.

“I’m coming to mate with you. And when I do, you’ll knowwhat it’s all about. And when I do it’s going to multiply and replenishand bring back sons and daughters of God like it was on the Day ofPentecost. When I do that.” Amen.

There’ll be Spoken Word babies. Amen? But right now it’sstill just His promised Word. Right now, this morning, He promisedthat, see? So while it’s a promise it’s the Word of God, but if we add ortake away it’s no more the Word of God.

But while we’ve got it, we’ve got more blessings and more lifewithout understanding it because we haven’t polluted it. Because thatas it is, we are in His Presence. He done already spoken it. So we canpreach things like Resurrection, we’re waiting for it; we don’t knowwhat it is so therefore we get blessed under that. Wedding Supper, weget blessed. Millennial Kingdom, blessed! But the moment we inter-pret Wedding Supper or the Millennium, there’s no more blessing. ThePresence of God moves away and it’s just dry, driving something down.Amen? Oh praise God.

And when Eve polluted the Word, misinterpreted It, the devildid to her through the serpent, Eve’s thinking changed. Oh in ’65 wewas all one! All over the Message, we loved one another and Malachi4 in ’65.

Then after a while the devil began to misinterpret the Word,then the different Eves’ thinking toward you changed. All of a suddenyou was a devil and you was in error. No more fellowship with you nomore. Amen? You watch. Those who get a revelation, their thinking

15changes toward you.

“Well I can’t fellowship with you.” There’s wrong seed there.You’ve got a wrong revelation, see? So there’s your trouble today.Now God’s order. One, today, right now in the Book of Life, we areone with the promised Word. We believe every Word, we don’t under-stand It all but we believe It. And believing It makes us one and we’redoing the works of God by believing on Him that’s sent. He didn’t askanything else, just believe It. Don’t try to figure It out now.

Don’t try to figure out Monday: don’t sit here now and say,“Now how am I gonna... what am I gonna do tomorrow because thishappens and I better go over here because after if I don’t do this here...”Let God take care of that. It’ll happen. Amen.

So with this Seven Sealed Message, we are one with It. “Whatdo you mean you’re one with It?” Oh I saw these young people leavetheir Pentecostal churches: one with the Message. It happened righthere in New York. You left your families and husbands and wives andwhatnot because you were one with the Seven Sealed Message.

You are espoused to Jesus Christ, though you haven’t even seenHim, yet you love Him. Amen? You love Him, you haven’t seen Himbut you love Him. That’s taking His Word. He wrote you a love letterand said, “I love you.”

It doth not appear what we shall be but we know when He shallappear we shall be like Him! Glory to God, He said so! Then that’snumber one, we’re one with the Seven Sealed Message.

Then number two: then when we become one with the Head-stone in Person, that’s the Dynamics. Now we’re getting somewhere.And then the Dynamics comes to produce Christ in spiritual manifes-tation again and to fulfill all that’s written of Him in these last days.

Look at the Scriptures that was fulfilled on the Cross in sixhours. And you think that God can’t bring to pass St. John 14:12, St.Mark 11:23, Hebrews 13:8, Hebrews 4:12. You think He can’t bringthat to pass in one day? Look at all the ones He brought to pass on theCross.

But if you don’t interpret that and try to figure it out, He’llbring it to pass. Amen? He’ll give a word to the weary in season. Onthe Cross, look at His Cross ministry. The first three hours from nine

16to twelve, it was love, the first act was love. “Father, Father, forgivethem for they know not what they do.”

Then salvation to the thief. “This day shall thou be with me inParadise.” Love. And they was crowning Him and beating Him andeverything and He was giving out love. Then His last earthly act, Hetook care of His mother. “Mother, John, thy son. John, thy mother.”

Then the darkness fell on the Cross, twelve o’clock. Then Hecried out with a loud voice, “Eli, Eli.” In tongues. And they thoughtHe had something to do with Elijah. It sure does, doesn’t it? Amen.

Then in verse 50, another loud... there was two loud voices, inverse 50, off it went again on Good Friday, an earthquake went off andthe dead arose but they didn’t come up until Sunday morning. Butthey were awakened on the Cross.

So the Voice of the Resurrection is to come again to awakenthe sleeping Bride. And they’re trying to figure that out. “That mustbe in the Resurrection.” He didn’t say that. He just said to awaken.He awakened them Friday. The Bible said. And they came up andwalked around Jerusalem Sunday. Amen? Emptied out.

We’re getting kind of quiet now, praise God. Now listen. Toadd or take away from the promised Word in the spiritual womb, nowwhat’s the promised Word that He has placed in our wombs? St. John14:12, Acts 2:38, St. Mark 11:23, just a few of them. Hebrews 13:8, IThessalonians 4:16. The Wedding Supper. All that has been placed inour spiritual wombs.

Now while it’s placed there, if we don’t take away and add toit, it’s the Word of God. It’s a promise that God is watching over. Thecanopy of Life is over you right now because He has placed His spermin your wombs. And God’s watching over it.

Then if you... then meaning that you have received wrong seedif you go the other way. Then you’re not true virgin seed of the Wordin your thinking; in the thinking. It’s how you think, your attitude. Ialways say watch your attitude. If you get, ahhh, like this here, there’ssomething wrong with your thinking. Where’s your Brotherly Kind-ness at in your thinking? Amen?

So Mary in her thinking, no matter what, she didn’t understandit, she pondered it in her heart, she said, “Be it unto me according to

17thy Word.” Zachariah tried to figure it out and the angel smote himdumb and so has the ministry been smote down also, Zachariah minis-try.

Try to figure it out but big blind ministers can’t even listen toMalachi 4; won’t even sit under his tapes. He said the trouble of it,you’ve got to know the Author and the Author is on the tapes and theywon’t sit under it and get mellowed down in the Presence of AlmightyGod.

But Mary did. Amen? So here it is friends. Christ comes onlyto the virgin of the Word to reproduce Himself again. No reasoning.This reproduction reflection brings Him back on the earth again afterMalachi 4 left. Is that quickened to you? Praise God.

It produces the ministry of the Holy Spirit in the Bride. Whatis it? It’s the Holy Spirit ministry, the spirit in the Church is becomingso close like Jesus. Like Luther, it was a dip of the Holy Spirit. Wesleywas a dip of the Holy Spirit. The Pentecostals was a dip of the HolySpirit.

You know the devil sure don’t want you to get this one thismorning. I see that quizzical looks. I’m just going along and you’retrying to get ahead of me. Don’t try to go ahead of me because it’snothing hard. Just relax now like we sang, “There Is A River,” in thebeginning.

You’re getting all quizzical now trying to figure out Eve andall these things here. Forget about it. I mean the Holy Spirit is here,He knows what you’re doing. Now if you’ll just relax like you comein here and we stood up and we sang, “There Is A River.”

Now let that same Anointing come back here, He’s gonna tellyou something this morning, somebody’s gonna get it. I know whereI’m at. Brother, I’m filled up. If you want some of what I’ve got,you’d better relax. Amen.

Now the very, here we go, the very same Spirit, the Spirit thatcame and was on Jesus that He was the Word and that made Him dosigns, wonders and miracles. That same Spirit ministry came up onthe early Church. Are you getting it now? But when it came up as ablade it was not the same Spirit that was on the early Church. It was adip of that Spirit on the early Church. Now we’re getting somewhere.

18The people themselves was just church, human beings, make

mistakes and everything else. But a Spirit came upon them to produceDynamics and mechanics of justification. They themselves, they werejust people. We can do nothing in ourselves.

Then a more powerful dip came upon Wesley and them, sanc-tified under the Blood, same people, Church, mechanics. But the Spiritmoved over stronger, and you read it in your history, they shook. Theyhad to throw water in their face. They shook under the Power of God.

Luther didn’t have that. Wesley did and they call them shakersand everything. They were shaking and shouting under the Power ofGod, the old shouting Methodists. More stronger. Then a strongerblow fell on the day, fell on Azusa Street.

Now the fullness of it came in the form of a Baptism in thehearts. But the portion left over was only gifts. Now we’re gettingsomewhere, not the Giver yet. The Giver came into the hearts in theHoly Ghost Baptism. But He didn’t come down Himself as the veryPerson. He sent gifts down. And they ministered through the gifts.

But in the last days we’re promised the very same Spirit thatwas upon the early Church. Ah. You’re getting it now? The devildidn’t want you to get that one. Now we again are just human beings,tax collectors, publicans, prostitutes, fishermen, farmers, I’m just say-ing anybody, black, white, yellow, red or indifferent, just people.

They ain’t smart, they’re God’s five-rank army, despised andweak and you know, foolish and whatnot to the world, just people,that’s all. Without Him you can’t do nothing. But your age, He’spromised you not a dip and a dip and a Baptism and gifts. The verysame Spirit that was on the early Church is to come back upon thisChurch. Amen?

What’s it coming for? He said here. Till the Church, the me-chanics, and the Spirit, the One that was on the Day of Pentecost now,will unite together with you and the Resurrection will come. Now youpreach this in this Message here and they’ll kick you out. They donot... I’ve had a hard time for nine years, Brother Hunte, he can tellyou, all around this Message, they don’t want to believe that there’sgonna come nobody, messiah-ettes on this earth.

Brother Branham came and he’s got to come back in the Res-

19urrection again with the tent and all these things here. But I’m tellingyou, this morning we’re gonna find out.

(Blank spot on tape)

And I know it’s going to happen! Praise God. So the mechan-ics, espoused, set in the Book of Life, Seven Sealed Message, chastevirgin, espoused, that’s all. Don’t change it. That’s mechanics. Be-lieve it. All kind of people, black, white, yellow, red or indifferent, justbelieve it. Just keep walking, keep in the Light, stay in the Light.

And all of a sudden in the mating season the Dynamics comesback with the very same Spirit that He did in the early Church andmates with you and makes you bone of His bone and flesh of His flesh.Makes you Himself and reproduces again a spiritual manifestation ofHimself in the last days, just before the Resurrection.

Then, listen, I have a thought on this here. That brings theearthly Christ on the earth. There’s a heavenly Christ, a man, andMoses saw His back in Exodus 33, but He was made material, flesh,God, Jesus Christ and He has a corporal body sitting now, a flesh bodythat’s changed and glorified. But He sent down His very same Spirit,which is the earthly Christ. And this earthly Christ is the Holy Ghost!

The Holy Ghost is the earthly Christ. And on the Day of Pen-tecost that earthly Christ was manifested doing the same things thatthe corporal heavenly Christ did on the Day of Pentecost. And thatearthly Christ went through Irenaeus and Polycarp and into the Romandirt.

But in the last days He promised to bring back the earthly Christ,the Headstone, the grain itself! But it had to, the Life had to passthrough Luther and Wesley and the Pentecostals and come out intograins and the grains walked into the Book of Life. And they’re prom-ised - hold on, overcome - they’re promised the very same earthlyChrist Spirit.

Brother Branham said what are we waiting for? We have gotto be honed out; we’ve got to have the very same ministry on the earthbefore the Resurrection. So God sent the Pillar of Fire to anoint sonsof God to come and stand as manifestation of the sons of God in the

20last days standing on the earth as the earthly Christ.

And what does that do? That puts you over into St. John 11:Lazarus. The Voice is back on the earth for the Resurrection! WhatVoice? Luther, Wesley, Pentecostals gifts? No! The heavenly Christdescends with a Voice. The same Life, the same Spirit drops up overthe espoused Bride and mates with Her, pours Rapturing Faith intoHer. You got time?

Brother we’re gonna get into the Word and get you stabilized.Amen Brother Goby? He agrees with it, wonderful, amen. It may benew to you Brother; this is the way we teach it here, it’s on the tapesand so forth and the Bible. Amen.

So now the Dynamics then comes to personally take care ofHis Word. What’s His Word? St. Mark 11:23, that’s His Word. ThenHe goes back to the beginning, like it was in Adam’s time. When Hecame He took His own creation, fish, and bread and multiplied it. Butthe Prophet of God told us in our day, He doesn’t take that, He createsit.

Luther can’t do that, a dip. Wesley can’t do it with a dip. Pen-tecostals can’t do it with the gifts, but the earthly Christ can if it’spromised in the latter rain. Amen? And the latter and the former raincome together. Other words, He brings back the former rain and that’sraising the dead and healing the sick and casting out devils. That’s theformer rain, baptism in Jesus’ Name and the doctrine of no cutting thehair and all these things here, sanctification, that’s the former rain.Amen?

But in our day, it was to come that plus the latter rain together.And the latter rain was the Seven Seals. And then while the latter rainis being preached, the Message, if it’s really God’s Church, He’ll raisethe dead with the former rain, He’ll heal the sick and He’ll heal babieseyes that’s fixed eyes, with the former rain, and He also will take careof a promise of the latter rain: speak!

But you’re got to get back to the former rain first. These signsshall follow them that believe. Bring that first and then go on into thecreation and things. But He can’t find hardly anybody in this Messagethat believes the former rain. They say it’s all over with, no morepower, no more gifts, no more ministers. They say there is nothing.

21But there is a Church who believes that! There is a people who be-lieves that. They’re scattered around. They haven’t changed one iota.They haven’t changed one dot or tittle.

And He is coming to them to mate and then you’ll see the thingsthat God has promised. And then you’ll see the very same Spirit. PraiseGod. And then you’ll see a Resurrection. To him that overcometh willI give him the morning star. You’ll find the morning star, let me closeout here.

Revelation 22:16, II Peter 1:19, I Thessalonians 4:16 is themorning star. Now what is this morning star? Oh I got so happyyesterday when the Lord told me just what it was. The morning star,He said I’ll give you the morning star. Peter said so and Revelation 2says so. If you overcome and you, like the lily, press past all the muckand the mire, all these old voices and things that they’re saying that it’snot so, it’s for another age, and it’s only for Malachi 4 and all thesecrazy things, if you’ll just press past that as the lily, all that mud andpush up in the ninth year and still be smelling like a rose, a lily, ifyou’ll do that, then you overcome yourself, amen? And all those aroundyou.

And so you overcome all that stuff, see, and then to you, see,all you’ve got is mechanics now, you’re in the Book of Life, but toyou, I’m gonna give you the morning star. Now what is the morningstar? The morning star is the ministry of Jesus Christ given back to theChurch just before the Resurrection.

When the Lord told me yesterday, I got so excited, He said it’sthe ministry of the Holy Spirit is the morning star. Then I could under-stand, “The Stature Of A Perfect Man,” because all of you know thishere is on that page, I couldn’t get the Capstone on the top and underthere he has Holy Spirit in there.

And I was trying to understand it and I couldn’t... I’d read it fornine years and I couldn’t... five or six years, when it come out. I saidthe Holy Spirit, then the Holy Spirit said that’s the ministry of Christ,the Holy Spirit right under the cap. The Capstone is the corporal body,the Headstone.

But He brings a ministry back like the heavenly Christ’s minis-try, comes the earthly Christ’s ministry, which is the Holy Spirit, morn-

22ing star ministry. Well how do you know it? William Branham had it.You say how do I know it? I saw it.

And just beneath that is the Spirit of Christ on the bottom com-ing up through to manifest the Virtues for each age. You got that onethere now? I’ll read it to you on the last page. You got time thismorning? I just want to teach a little bit. I’ve got something here tobring to you. Add to your Faith, page 65, Virtue. Add to your VirtueKnowledge, to your Knowledge Temperance, to your Temperance Pa-tience, to your Patience Godliness, to your Godliness Brotherly Love,to your Brotherly Love the Holy Spirit.

Add the Holy Spirit. What’s the Holy Spirit? The morningstar, the ministry of Jesus Christ, the earthly ministry that He did backthere and the early Church did: add that to our Faith. He didn’t tell usto add Luther or Wesley or the gifts. He told us to add the Holy SpiritHimself.

So He drops this ministry right under the cap. The cap is al-ready coming down since ’63. He descended already with a Shout.He does three things on the way down. He did one already, the Shout.He’s still coming. And then He drops this Capstone ministry that Hehad, He said in St. John 14:12, Hebrews 13:8, the works that I do shallyou do also. That’s my ministry, that’s not Luther and Wesley and thePentecostals ministry, that’s my ministry.

That’s the one He had on the early Church, that’s coming backto you, signs, wonders and miracles and besides that you’ve got thelatter rain also. You’re gonna walk into the Resurrection. And inRevelation here, I give you power over the nations that I had, authorityover the earth.

And with the authority over the earth, I give you the Capstoneministry that they had before. I give you authority to create and doanything that I want to do through you. I say that what He wants to dothrough you now, not what you want to do. Amen.

And besides, I give you this morning star, that’s me. PraiseGod. Do you get it friends? I know you’re kind of stunned but, amen.No wonder the overcomers are pressing for that morning star. Now isit so hard to come in here and hear the Word? When the Word onlytries to get you to overcome to get this morning star, not to be satisfied

23with gifts of Luther’s, Wesley’s anointing.

Brother Branham said, you can check the tape, “Chosen PlaceOf Worship,” California, ’65, he says Luther had his Dynamics andmechanics together. Wesley had theirs together. The Pentecostals hadtheirs. As soon as they were baptized with the Holy Ghost, they spokein tongues and prophesied.

But when we were born again here in this Word, we just sathere. We didn’t have any Dynamics. So Brother Branham said butthere’s got to come forth a Bride with both mechanics and Dynamicsto go forth with all the blessings of God, just before the Resurrection.There will come a Bride.

And here we’ve got a promise in two places that He was gonnagive us the morning star. My, my, my. Praise God. So the morningstar is the ministry of Jesus Christ given back to the Church just beforethe Resurrection to bring back a ministry that the Capstone can fit theearthly... the heavenly Christ can fit with the earthly Christ.

Because the top of the foundation must be perfect. So it fitswith it. Amen? Praise God. And so now, in closing, they’re cryingout, the overcomers, the Bride, the lambs. That alarm went off on theinside. They know it’s something and they stirred. They ain’t satisfiedwith any little funny thing now. They know, amen. And they’re cryingout, watchman, watchman, what of the night? Amen.

Now Peter promised them the morning star, II Peter 1:19. AndJesus promised us the morning star. And in Revelation 22:16, Jesussaid I am the root and offspring of David. That’s to the Jews. And Hesaid I’m the bright and morning star. That’s to you and me. And Hesaid that’s what I am.

Then if Peter said that we were supposed to get it and in theBook of Revelation it’s unveiled that we’re supposed to get that morn-ing star, here He is He Himself saying, He is that morning star. ThenHe, His own Spirit, wants to come and live in us again to produceJesus Christ in flesh once again.

And it can happen this morning. I’m not kidding you. It canhappen this morning. It can begin. We’re already on the way. And themorning star is also in I Thessalonians 4, the Lord Himself; the morn-ing star, shall descend with a Shout, a Voice and a Trumpet.

24Now instead of letting God interpret the Voice, many say, “Well

the Shout was all of it.” Is that right? We all know that. Let God takecare of this Voice here. He said in, “The Seven Church Age,” bookthat the Voice again will be back in the Bride. And the Bride with thefullness of the Holy Spirit and the fullness of the Word, as She nearsthe Headstone, that’s Him, as She nears Him, She becomes like Him,in His very image.

That’s in the book there. I don’t know why they can’t read it.It’s right there. Maybe they don’t believe it, I don’t know. I know Ibelieve it. So now His corporal body is now at the right hand of God.Let’s hurry along.

But His Holy Spirit, watch, His Holy Spirit in the form of aWord Message: see, he changed up on them. Signs, wonders andmiracles with the Pentecostals, supernatural, “Woo.” See? Sensation.And he switched back and hid behind skin in words. He said my wordsare Spirit and my words are Life. Amen.

So all of us that are looking for big flowery things, they goaway. And then that Bride sits there, She just likes her husband to talkto her, not just keep giving her gifts and whatnot. Just... she wants tohear His Voice. She knows that He owns the cattle on a thousand hills.She knows that, that she’s married a millionaire. Praise... Rockefeller’snothing to Him. Amen?

She knows He’s a millionaire, billionaire, trillionaire. Sheknows that. So She ain’t worrying about little gifts and things. He’llgive it to Her. But She wants to hear His Voice. And He wants Her tolove Him. And He don’t want no man there, so He takes away HisProphet and leaves Himself here in the form of a Word Message, whichis the Holy Ghost. And full obedience to the Word Message, which isthe Holy Ghost, entitles you to the Token.

So walk into this Baptism of the entire Holy Ghost. Walk intoit, sit down in the Book of Life and wait for the mating season. Amen?Wonderful Jesus. Amen. Praise God. Let God sink that into ourhearts this morning. So He’s now in the form of the Word Messagehiding in His Word, working in His Church, getting Her ready.

God is getting us ready for that great day. Yes sir. I got readyto sing a Pentecostal song just now. Come down through here and my

25feet are getting ready to go like David. Praise the Lord.

We’re waiting for the mating with the Dynamics for what? Toreproduce the morning star. Amen. To raise the dead and go in theRapture. Praise God. And why am I preaching this way? It’s almosthere friends. The morning star is the ministry of the Holy Ghost.

Zachariah said in the evening time it shall be light. The eveningtime shadows have fallen everywhere but he said that it would be lightin the evening time. The same light that was on the early day and thenthe world would go through a dismal day, Luther, Wesley, Pentecos-tals, gloomy and you ain’t sure, is that the Holy Ghost? But he liveslike a devil, speaks in tongues, it’s all gloomy, you can’t figure it out.Amen.

You pass on through that. But then in the evening time therewould come light on them spirits and you’ll know what they are, praiseGod. Then you shall return and discern who’s speaking in tongues andwho’s doing what? By living a life. You’ll see who have been set inthe Book of Life. Praise God.

To me that means more than speaking in tongues and every-thing else. Brother, that’s it! That’s an absolute, a tie post. SomethingI can get my teeth into, a steak, I’ll rip it apart. Amen.

And then that Bride’s crying out, watchman, what of the night?Now who’s the watchman? The Holy Ghost is the watchman. Amen.And the watchman is warning of an oncoming judgment and He’s gota big tower, amen. And that tower is a tower of position up there.Watch it now because ain’t anybody that can run up in that tower now.Tower of position there and there’s an eagle up there.

And we had a Malachi 4 eagle. And he warned us of the on-coming judgment. Praise God. And he had some come behind, a five-fold ministry, to keep on with the same warning saying the same thing.

Where Elijah said Acts 2:38, say the same thing. Where Elijahsaid that there’s going to come a Bride, signs, wonders and miracles, Isay the same thing! I don’t care what the popular saying is. I goagainst the popular trend. “Ain’t no more this and no more of that.” Igo... I bust that right in the head and say what the eagle watchman saidbecause God spoke through that man. Amen.

Then the ministry sees the oncoming judgment, warns the

26people to flee from the wrath of God. They can only warn. They can’tmake them believe. I’m not responsible no more, just to warn you.Watchman, watchman, what of the night. The watchman is the HolySpirit.

Now let’s look at God’s order here. The burden of Dumah isheavy, it’s a judgment. He calleth to me out of Seir, Watchman, whatof the night? Watchman, what of the night? They’re wanting to know,the people want to know about this judgment, and the wrath of God, IITimothy 3, Noah and Lot’s time, marrying and giving in marriage, sin,perversion, earthquakes and fearful sights. That’s the nighttime! Whatabout it?

Oh church, listen what the watchman says, the Holy Ghost.He says here the watchman said, listen to the church now, to the electedovercomers, He comes back, the watchman said the morning cometh.Oh praise God.

He didn’t say the night’s coming for you. The morning comethfor you and also the night for them. They see the night. The fig tree isbeing restored. And all these things that’s happening, that’s for them.Natural man can see the things, rapes and murders and all these thingsin the street. They see that. That’s for them to see that. They knowsomething is happening and they are shook up.

They don’t know what’s gonna be. But he said the morningcomes for you. The morning cometh and also the night for them. SoHe sets an alarm off. He anoints our faith with eagle eyes to lookbeyond the night into the glorious Resurrection morning. Praise God.Where the Sun of Righteousness shall rise with healing in His wings.

Not healing for tumors and cancers. No. Healing for our natu-ral bodies to change these vile bodies into His glorious body. That’sthe healing He has! We have healing in signs and wonders through thereflection. The morning star brings that healing. The Son of righ-teousness brings on a changed body. Praise God. Amen, amen, praisethe Lord.

The watchman cries back, the morning cometh to the Bride.He said to the natural man it’s nighttime for you. But not for my Bride.The morning cometh. Amen. You see earthquakes and the fig tree andIsrael and II Timothy and all these things here. That’s for you world.

27That’s not for my Bride. Apostasy and Noah’s, Lot, and sin, perver-sion, marrying and giving in marriage and the enemy is attacking youat night. He’s roaring like a devil.

But I put an alarm in my little lambs. I told them to run andflee from the wrath of God that’s soon to fall and pray that you becounted worthy to stand in the Morning Star’s Presence. Praise God.Overcome.

The Spirit cries back, the morning cometh. What’s that mean?Shalom. Shalom. Peace. Good morning Bride. I’m gonna prove it toyou now. It’s a sign for the church. These things is not for us. That’swhy I said what are you shook up about all these things out here in thenighttime? That’s not for you.

What’s for you is St. John 14:12 is for you. Hebrews 13:8,Hebrews 4:12, St. Mark 11:23 is for you. That’s the morning starbringing them Scriptures to pass for the Bride. The world, that’s judg-ment, but it’s Shalom to the Bride! Praise God.

Now watch in the first breaking of the day, the first things thathappened, it breaks day. That’s the morning. The Prophet, the HolySpirit put it, the morning cometh first. Before the natural day breaks,the sunlight, it breaks, it gets light about four thirty or so in the morn-ing, it gets light.

That’s when it begins to break day. And then before it breaksday it gets very dark. It gets as dark as it’s ever been all night. Amen?And then it breaks day. Let’s go over it again.

Morning comes, it breaks a little light. Then it gets pitch blackand then it breaks day. Now watch. When it started, Peter said herethat the day would dawn. He’s talking about this day because theyalready had the Holy Ghost; they already had signs, wonders andmiracles. He said and you keep walking like a light shining in a darkplace. Is that right?

In this gloom out here, he told those up there in his epistlehere, keep walking, keep walking, you’re gonna walk into this daydawning. But they went in the ground and they rotted and had to goto... the seeds had to bust open and come in the ground and this day isfor you and me.

Do you understand it? It wasn’t even for them, it’s for us. This

28morning star is for you and me. Oh praise God. They went in theground; they rotted and went in the ground. Then life come up throughLuther and Wesley, a dip, a dip, a dip. But in our day the Spirit Itself,the morning star. Praise God.

Then in nineteen... what happened then? In 1946, all of a sud-den it was gloomy from the Pentecostal area; they didn’t know whatwas going on. And all of a sudden an angel shot out of Heaven andmet William Branham at the eleventh hour up there in an old room upthere somewhere. And a ball of Fire began to walk across the floor.What was it? It broke day. Praise God.

The first breaking of the morning. And it broke in on theProphet, He give him a gift to go around the world and bring somedaylight. Go around the world and reflect the coming of the S-U-N.Praise God. The S-U-N, the oncoming Resurrection. Early in themorning it begins to press his light. So He presses the darkness back,science says.

Darkness is pressed into a corner and light busts out! So, butjust before it gets real dark, the light begins to reflect on the moon andthe stars and it reflects on the morning star. Praise God. But beforethe morning star is reflected, a little light breaks out and that little lightwas his First Pull and the Second Pull. That was the revival to the FullGospel people. That was God trying to call them and call them andcall them and they rejected that light!

And now in 1956 he turned them over to darkness and the Pen-tecostals is dark, walking in the dark. But praise God, then he saidafter that little light, then comes darkness. In 1964 the pope went intothe moon, Jerusalem, and he darkened the church. So just before theS-U-N comes, the moon is not shining. But oh praise God, God prom-ised for somebody, the Prophet is gone, Malachi 4, but he said thatthere would be some morning star.

If the sun is coming something is gonna reflect it and the morn-ing star reflects the coming of the S-U-N, S-O-N, the Son of righ-teousness and the moon cannot reflect it for the pope has darkened itout. Therefore, but he said if you overcome, praise God, if you over-come I’ll give you the ministry of the morning star and you will reflectwhat? You shall reflect the Presence of the S-U-N, power of the Res-

29urrection. All that power that’s in the Resurrection coming on, amen,will be reflected in morning stars to warn and tell the world once more,I’ll ride this trail once more as the morning star and I’ll warn this unto-ward generation, glory to God, that the Son of righteousness, the Res-urrection is at hand! Praise God. You got it?

No wonder last night I was shouting and praising God! We areto warn our neighborhoods, reflect. We can’t reflect anything in our-selves. We’re nothing. We’re filthy rags. But that sun, S-U-N, S-O-N, is approaching. The moon can’t do it. She lost her testimony. Shemated with the pope and his filthy denomination and creeds and dog-mas. Amen.

But the Bride is holding to the predestinated Word. It’s Word.And God is taking care of His Word. And therefore God will manifestthe morning star to you. Praise God. Amen? Praise God. Thank theLord.

In 1956, Brother Branham in Chicago said gross darkness uponthem. They rejected that little light when it broke morning. Thendarkness come. But he said rise and shine my little Bride for the lightshall not only be upon you, it shall be seen upon you. What light?That’s a reflection of the S-U-N, is the morning star seen upon you inyour neighborhoods, in your families and your jobs and everywhere,you’re gonna reflect by the same life, same signs, same wonders, sameministry, prophetic, speaking Seven Thunders, speaking plagues, tell-ing them warn and flee from the wrath of God! Oh you ain’t heardanything yet.

Brother Branham said what am I... I’m laying a backgroundfor a quick, powerful, short message that’ll shake the nation. Thisnation was shook in ’56. He means these groups across this countrythat have polluted this Message. He’s coming back with some over-comers. He’s coming back with some who held on to that Word.

And He’s coming back to some who had the audacity, the nerveto believe that they can have the same morning star. He’s comingback; well, “ACCORDING TO YOUR FAITH MARY, BE IT UNTOYOU.” Then I say Lord God, let that morning star ministry come forthupon me, my bones are dry.

I know there come a shaking from Malachi 4 and Ezekiel’s

30bones. We come out of them spiritual graves and there was a shakingbut, and the sinew come on. But he said Malachi 4, can they live?Malachi 4 said that they will live! Praise God. She’ll live again, samepower, same Bride, same signs. Why? She’ll live by the reflection ofthe Power of Almighty God from the Resurrection, the S-U-N shallreflect on some morning stars. A few overcomers, the manifestationof the sons and daughters of God who had the crazy enough to believeit, who didn’t go with the popular trend, go out here and go over thereand wait for all kind of funny things.

But they say Lord, I done heard Your Voice. I love You. I don’tcare what they do. If they put me out, I ain’t got no job, praise God, Iain’t got nothing to eat. Lord God, I done heard Your Voice. I hear thesound of abundance of Dynamics. I shall not be moved! I done heardfrom my Theophany! Did you hear what I said? I heard from myTheophany! That’s the Word. That’s that Person, that Word in Itsfullness that I would have been in if I didn’t come through Adam andEve.

But I bypassed that Theophany and come here and took on thisold flesh. Amen. But something in me, praise God, makes me agreeto everything and my Theophany’s waiting for me. Amen. PraiseGod. Yes sir. We are here! Morning stars rise and be polished by theBlood of Jesus Christ, morning stars. Let the Blood of Jesus Christpolish you morning stars down because you’re gonna shine.

This little light of mine is gonna shine. Shine little light, praiseGod, it’s gonna be a glorious light. Praise God. So first we’ve gotmorning, then we’ve got dark, and just the going in between, betweenthe dark and the breaking of the S-U-N, the morning star comes outand shines.

So Malachi 4 had First Pull, Second Pull, darkness, ’58, ’59,’60, darkness, ’60, waiting for what? The morning star. Malachi 4waited, praise God, and Peter said as he spoke here. Let me pick upPeter and just close out here, amen. I feel the inspiration coming downthe pipes, praise God, amen, amen, amen! I know what I’m talkingabout this morning. Peter said, (II Peter 1:15 & 16)...

Moreover I will endeavour,... (I will make sure) ...that ye maybe able after my decease to have these things always in

31remembrance. For we have not followed cunningly devisedfables, when we made known unto you the power and thecoming of our Lord Jesus Christ,... (That’s what Petersaid)...(but)...we were eyewitnesses of His majesty.Peter made sure that his epistles got to those people. What

about our Peter? What about our Paul? He made sure; he taped it upfor us. Brother, he stored up the food. He said I will endeavour tomake tapes! I will endeavour to have my trustee board put out theseSpoken Word books! I will endeavour that it will be here for yourremembrance, that you have not followed some cunningly devisedfables, old wive’s table, tales. But you have followed the Word ofGod.

And just like Peter was telling these people here up in the holymountain, praise God, when Jesus Christ shined with all of His maj-esty and glory that He had before the beginning of the world and Moses,the dead saints appeared and Elijah the Coming of the Lord, he saw it.This was no fable.

He saw with his eyes and he heard with his ears, “This is mybeloved Son in whom I am well pleased to dwell in, hear ye Him.”Peter said I heard that. And the Scriptures, Peter said, the Scripturesare made firmer; they’re confirmed by what I heard up there. He saidI know this Bible is right. I know it.

Then Peter told them that this is right! Amen. Then we havealso a more sure word of prophecy, meaning the Old Testament, theprophets. Whereunto you do well that you take heed. He told them tostay in the Word. A light that shines in a dark place, keep walkinguntil. Keep walking until the morning cometh. Amen.

And the darkness and the day, but just between the darknessand the day, Peter says here, keep walking until the day dawn and thedaystar, that’s the morning star, rise in your hearts. Come into being in1963. The day dawned in ’46, First and Second Pull, but in 1963 thedaystar struck our hearts.

A little seed begin to add, to add, to add, to add. Don’t you getit? It’s adding, adding, adding, adding, adding. It’s dawning in yourhearts. Malachi 4 was the daystar, the morning star, the bright andmorning star, in one phase, as the Shout! But that entire morning star

32is a Shout and a Voice and a Trumpet: it’s the entire Bride.

And the entire Bride is the earthly Christ. Now you tell me Iain’t in the Word? Brother I’m smack dab down in the honey jar. Theearthly Christ is the Word and the heavenly Christ is the Capstone andthe heavenly... yes Brother Ben, the heavenly Christ comes down andunites with a earthly Christ in the Resurrection and away we go! PraiseGod.

And if Peter could say that, what about our Peter? He said wehave a more... he said we have the Seven Seals confirmed Peter. Youdidn’t even have that. It wasn’t even written when you wrote that.John wrote it after you were martyred Peter. Amen?

He’s telling Peter right now up there in Heaven. Amen? Hesaid Peter, praise God, in 1933 on June the 12th the morning star swungdown, praise God, and I was baptizing the 17th person and that morn-ing star cried out to me and told me that I would introduce Him, amen,and my faith in what He said, praise God, it watered that Voice, thatVoice of God speaking on the inside and I overcome after 30 years ofall kind of things. Did He do it?

1933 to 1963, 30 years old, he was ready to go forth as a rip-ened Malachi 4 seed Word as the bright and morning star. Praise God.And He called out some morning stars. And they was all smutted upin Laodicea. And He took and washed them in Blood. Whew. Andthey’re shined up.

Now they’re all polished, all they need is a reflection, oh praiseGod. Just the morning star, that sun, S-U-N, S-O-N of the Resurrec-tion is so close, it’s almost here. The closer it gets, we’ve been... we’rethat much closer. Amen. It’s almost ready to reflect! But be ready andovercome when He reflects.

He might come in here this morning and reflect through signs,wonders and miracles. He might reflect with the Baptism of the HolyGhost. He might reflect as we lay our hands upon one another andthese signs shall follow them that believe. Praise God. It’s going tobe! It’s been spoken, it’s going to be!

Heaven and hell... Heaven, or hell is against it, but the gates ofhell shall not prevail against it for He promised us the ministry to pickup every gate in front of us and destroy them and keep walking. I

33don’t care how many gates the devil put in front of you! Praise God.

We don’t need no key! We can speak and it’s gone. PraiseGod. And it’s gone. He said I’ll give you power over the nations.That means power over Nixon. That means power over Europe, powerover all of them, praise God. That means if He sends us anywhere inthe world, we have power! We have authority to call down twelvelegions of angels if we need them.

He said I’ll give you the same power I had! All the power thatI have in me, it’s in you my children. It’s embedded in you my chil-dren. Just be them morning stars. This is that glorious ministry thatwas to come that Malachi 4 died for, he knows it’s gonna come. He’slooking over the banister of time, he’s saying, “Come on BrotherColeman, come on Brother Coleman, praise God, you can preach thatWord, I preached it. I’m standing next to Paul and I’m having fellow-ship with Peter because we are rejoicing that we spoke the same thing!”

I want to join that Blood-washed group! Timothy and Titusand Barnabas and Irenaeus and Polycarp and St. Martin: those whospoke this Message! Praise God. I don’t care if this... all the ministersin this Message don’t believe it, God told me I’m gonna be a morningstar. And He told me last night that that morning star is my ministry,praise God. Yes sir. Yes sir.

He told me that that is God veiled in flesh! Praise God. That’swhat He said. Hid behind a skin veil! The sandals, the lowest thing onthe... what’s those? Badger skin. They were made for shoes. We’reold shoes, they walk all over the top of us but we’re God’s cream ofthe crop! We’re His morning stars. Praise God.

And you know what beloved? William Branham went up on aholy mountain in 1963, seven angels come out of nowhere, out of Eter-nity and they made the Bible sure! They confirmed the Bible! Theytook all the loose ends day by day by day, six of them come down inthe Tabernacle and confirmed the Word of God upon the holy moun-tain.

And the Prophet said we have not followed cunningly devisedfables but this is the Word. The Sword come into my hand, the King’sSword. The King’s Sword, not a sword. And he told us you’re goingto receive the daystar. And it’s confirmed with Seven Seals. Praise

34God. Sister Nadine. My, I’m tired. Praise God. My, my, my. Whew,praise God. Thank You Lord. Oh praise His wonderful Name. ThankYou Lord. Praise His wonderful Name. Amen.

As soon as it gets real dark, the moon blacks out, the pope,then the morning stars shines its brightest. What’s it doing? It’s re-flecting the light of the oncoming sun. I’ve been through this here andthe darkness is congealing together, that’s the world council and themrunning together. You see that now? That’s the darkness coming to-gether.

And all the churches coming together in total darkness. TheWord is making them do it. God say, “Let there be light.” And thelight pushes back the darkness and brother, I’m light. And when Iwalk, get out of my way darkness, move back. Praise God. MOVEBACK darkness! You devils that lurk in people’s minds and makethem sick in their bodies with cancers and blind eyes and whatnot, getback darkness because the morning star ministry that walked the earthwhen He walked, devils cried out. Cancers come out, blind eyes openedup, the graves opened up, Lazarus come forth.

That same ministry is coming into Forest Hills. And when wewalk, darkness disappears, disintegrates. To the overcomers. PraiseGod. I’ll give them the morning star. What is it? The ministry ofChrist, my oncoming, listen, my oncoming power of the Resurrectionwill reflect my own Presence, my own ministry, in the darkness andI’ll be hid behind little skin veils. And they won’t know it.

I’ll cross over from the ripening stage of green to golden browninto a matured stage and they’ll still think it’s you. But it’ll be themorning star. It could be this morning, it could be any time. But I’vegot something here for you. Praise the Lord.

What’s the morning star there for? To reflect the sun coming.The sun shining against it reflecting the Presence of the coming of theSon. I’m trying to drive down to you the Resurrection is at hand. It’spressing, it’s pressing, it’s pressing. And as it gets almost ready tobreak, it reflects on some morning stars. And the morning stars heralda bright powerful light, the Resurrection is at hand and they preachthat Message and they prove it on the spot.

You can’t go out there now and say that. They’ll say, “Prove

35it.” But when that morning star comes and they won’t know, and that’sin you. Humble? It’ll be so hid. My God. It’s the brightest thing inHeaven. The Bride that has forsaken the world and God’s reflectingHis Life coming to you to warn the world that the approaching Son isat hand.

Morning stars, it’s Adoption time! The morning stars will re-flect the Son and Jesus in your neighborhoods, that’s what you’ll be,little morning stars in the dark. They’ll run to you and fall at your feet.They’ll feel and see the Glory of God.

But you know there’s an old law in the Old Testament, whenyou have your harvest, your inheritance, your corn and your oil andyour wine, the stranger passing through your field can eat in your pres-ence but he can’t take it away. It’s yours.

My beloved, it’s for you. You labored and you waited a longtime. I’ve got it stored up waiting for you. So the morning stars willreflect the Son, reflect Jesus in your neighborhood. The morning starsare being polished up now. Watch the ministry of the Holy Spirit, thevery same Spirit back on the earth to shine forth the approaching of theSon of God.

What did Malachi 4 come for? That’s Scripture. IThessalonians 4. What was that? The morning star. And WilliamBranham’s portion of it was the Shout. And we’re in that Voice inthere. And the popular opinion was that, well it had to be in the Resur-rection.

But I’m reading to you from the Bible and from these tapeswhere he says before the Resurrection there will be some morningstars shine to herald The Resurrection. Praise God for that revelation!It makes me live. Amen.

He said to him that overcometh, your own selves. Ain’t any-body bothering you. Who’s bothering you? Overcome yourself. Theover desires and all these things here and upsetments and emotions:overcome that. Amen?

And when you go outside, there’s some things outside that you,“But I’ll be with you,” when you go outside. Amen? I’ll give him themorning star to reflect the light. What light? The light of the ap-proaching Son. I’m saying it over. I want you to really get it. Did you

36get it now? Amen.

The morning star, what is it? The ministry of Jesus. Nowwhen that does shine, II Peter, well I’ve been through all that there.Praise God. Do you love Him? This ministry could not come in theother ages because it was prophesied here. It come in this age. Amen.So Brother Branham, he endeavored to have... to bring us in remem-brance of these promises and we’re here. We have this prophetic Word,praise God, and we have it here. And so now Proverbs 4:18:

But the path of the just is as the shining light, that shinethmore and more unto the perfect day.So Peter told them to walk as that light in a dark place and to

keep shining and shining and shining until it comes to the perfect day.Then the perfect day broke in on us and a little bit of light, First andSecond Pull. Then darkness, then it broke out into the perfect morningstar, perfect Word, perfect every... perfect Spirit.

And he told...and Peter told them to keep walking until thatcome and it happened, it’s already happened. We’re already in themorning star this morning. They waited for thousands and thousandsof years to get to this day and we are sitting in the Book of Life.

I don’t know. What else can we have? And you want tonguesand sensations and speaking in tongues so you’ll know you can feelsomething? No. I want to know that I know where I’m at. Yes sir.This is my ground here. I know, amen.

So the day broke, I’m finished now. The morning... he saidwatchman, watchman, what of the night? He said the morning comethto the Bride and also three and a half years of tribulation to the world.But the morning comes to you first. And I’ll come in 1946 with a signof discernment and a gift of healing and can’t nobody have an excuse.I’ll go to the denominationals first. And then they’ll turn me down,Pentecostals, they’ll turn me down. Then I’ll go out and get the Rahabs.They’ll sit together, amen, they’re sitting together.

I’ll go out and get them in that Third Pull and I’ll have them.Praise God. Then I’ll polish them up. They are elected morning stars.I will polish them in the Blood and wash all the filth off of them. Andwhen I get them shined up and all ready, see, but still, they’ve got toget a reflection. And I’ll be coming so close with my Resurrection, I’ll

37reflect because the moon can’t do it no more, it’s blocked, it’s black,blocked out, gone.

So the morning stars, individual Bride, one here and he thatheareth over here, he that will, he, individual, morning stars, will re-flect the Presence of God and warn the world. Then I’ll come and I’llgather all my morning stars with my other morning stars and we’ll allbe together on the earth. The earthly Christ will be united and such apower will come into that earthly Christ, it’ll change you in your at-oms. It’ll bring forth the heavenly Christ to unite: Capstone unitingwith the Pyramid.

That Pyramid will live again. Praise God. And just before ithappens, some morning stars will come and they’ll come with love,speaking the truth in love, shalom, shalom. He that is athirst, shalom,the Spirit, the morning star is the Spirit and the Bride say, Come. Sha-lom. Shalom. Are you athirst, whosoever will? Shalom. Shalom.Praise God.

You think I don’t know what I’m talking about? I know whatI’m talking about brother! Praise God. The morning star is here. Ohpraise God. I’ve got something here I want to read to you. I’m sorry tokeep you so long but I had to get this off of me. I was going crazy.Amen.

Oh here’s what I want to say to you. He came as a Shout, aVoice, a Trumpet, and though He came as the morning star, yet it wasin the evening time. Isn’t that strange? See, I’m gonna show yousomething. See, in all the gloom and darkness, the morning star comesout and says, “Shalom, peace,” see? God always testifies in the heav-ens first.

And we know that. Jesus Christ’s birth, it was a star. And thewise men followed it and then He gave the message to the shepherdsand they preached this message for about two years before they knewwhat was even happening. That’s right.

The shepherds preached the message first and then the Phari-sees and the teachers and scribes, they didn’t know what happened.God sent the message to the shepherds out there and they testifiedbecause they knew that those shepherds would know how to handlethe Lamb, the baby Lamb, Jesus and His little lambs. The shepherds

38know how to handle them, take care of them, amen, feed them and, thefood.

Peter, lovest thou me? Feed my sheep, my little lambs. Alarmthem and tell them what to do and warn them of the roaring lion com-ing in, and when it’s coming in you know, amen? Praise the Lord.

And God always testifies in the heavens. Now a strange thinghappened here, I think all of us are aware of it. This comet coming,Kohoutek how do you say that there? Kohoutek. They call it a Christ-mas comet. Now the strange thing about it, they name a comet after aman who finds it. And this man found it and he found it on March the7th 1973, this year, March the 7th, he picked it up.

And we picked up something around March the 4th of thisyear. It was starting, came out and curse Nixon and everything else,March the 4th, that was a Sunday. You all remember that there? Nowdon’t freeze on me now. Amen.

So he, over in Germany, he detected this comet, it come on thescene there with a telescope. Then early in November I asked BrotherJoey to find out the date, I couldn’t, I think Sylvia Jackson sent us aclipping or something, it was around the 14th or the 11th, somewherearound there, it was to appear in our universe where you could see itwith binoculars.

So first you had to see it with a telescope, then you had to getbinoculars and focus in on it. Remember last Sunday now? Binocu-lars, telescopic and binoculars, the next thing. Amen? That was in thebeginning of November.

Then they said in the paper here that November 24th, whichwas yesterday, that you would be able to go outside early in the morn-ing around five a.m. and pick it up with your own eyes. It has comethat close yesterday. You following me now? Okay.

Now yesterday... and then... well I’ll just read it to you, a partof it. There’s an astronomical spectacular coming... you talking abouta spectacular spiritual spectacular, whew, my. And you can have yourown private preview right now.

Arm yourself with good binoculars, get up an hour before sun-rise and look to the east. Come out of the east. You should be able tosee a slowly moving blob of light that astronomers say will soon grow

39until it spreads across the sky.

I’m thinking about that little man’s hand, you know? Littlething moving, you know what I mean? The first moving, you know?And it will grow until it comes across, spreads across the sky. That’sComet Kohoutek, the Christmas Comet that promises to provide oneof the most brilliant sky displays of the century.

Late this month Comet Kohoutek will have grown enough sothat you won’t need binoculars - that’s yesterday - to see it. By De-cember 28th the day it comes nearest the sun - now remember theSon’s coming right - and it gets right near, almost ready to burst for-ward, the daystar shines.

And on the 28th the day it comes nearest the sun, now watch,the comet is expected to be bright enough to be seen in the daylight.Truly a daystar in the daytime. But you have to block out the sun tosee the daystar shining because you won’t see them both at the sametime.

So if you’re looking for... Brother Branham said what are youlooking for? If you’re looking for the Resurrection and you just lookat the Resurrection, you won’t see the daystar shining. That’s prom-ised. The morning star. So all of you who are looking for the Resur-rection and the tent and all these things here, careful! If you don’t... ifyou get out of season and you don’t block it out for the time being andwait till when he said it was supposed to be here, you’ll miss the wholething. Amen?

If you block out the light of the sun and in January Kohoutekwill be visible, it will be bright enough to be seen in the daylight if youblock out the light of the sun. And in January Kohoutek will be visiblein the evening sky, its tail flaring out millions of miles across space.Now what does that mean?

First it comes in the morning, then through November, and youpick it up and in December it’s its brightest as it’s here and then ithooks around and then it switches over in January and you see it in theevening, no more in the morning. It’s in the evening. Well praise God,He said in the evening time it shall be light. But He promised to bringit as a morning star first.

So therefore Christ come as a morning star to the Bride, not to

40the Pentecostals, they don’t know what happened. It happened back in’63 through ’65 as a morning star. And they don’t know it yet. Theyrejected the whole thing. We received it. And then we know it’s com-ing now. Amen? And it’s getting... there’s a little blob right now, likea little blob. It’s getting more and more and more until it’s gonna burstforward in the day time.

Then when it bursts forward in January it lights up the sky inthe evening time. Then truly there is light in the evening time to theworld. The Prophet said evening time for you and me. The worlddon’t see it, it’s nighttime. Watchman, watchman, what of the night?He said good morning to you. So look for the morning star.

And in the season I’ll let everybody know that truly Malachi 4was a Prophet! Wait you foolish virgins until you see the things hesaid coming to pass and you’ll see the evening light Message then!But it’ll be too late because I’ve already reflected through some morn-ing stars.

Hid: I descended with a Shout and a Voice and you missed thewhole thing foolish virgins. I’ve got some more for you. Praise God,amen. My! He shows it in the heavens first. I’m gonna prove it toyou. Amen.

November 24th, detected by a naked eye, yesterday, at five a.m.in the morning, to get brighter and brighter. That’s why I told you twoweeks ago, a little moving, see? Grab it, that’s it, get a hold of it, Godis moving. December 28th the comet, the morning star, I’m typing,will shine in the daylight, truly a daystar. Now watch.

Truly a spectacular sight. January ’74 it swings around the sunand is visible in the evening time. Then the foolish virgins say, “Giveme this oil here.” It’s too late. When they finally see the Malachi 4Message predicted, coming to pass, they ask for the evening time towalk in. You get it now? But the Bride’s made up friends.

Proving the morning star slipped in in secret, got a Bride, gaveHer the ministry of the morning to reflect the dark evening time, theapproaching of the oncoming Son. Praise our God. He did it! Christhas slipped down to the earth already. It’s already happened. Elias isalready come, already happened. There’ll be many in this Messagethat are waiting for Elias to come back again and do certain things.

41And he says why the Rapture just happened. He’s already come, youdidn’t know it.

Who? John’s own disciples. The Spirit of Elijah is to havesome disciples that won’t know that He’s already come, a whole gangof them because they polluted the Word and took away and they added.I wouldn’t care who they were. But there’s a little Bride that didn’tchange the promised Word. She knows that He can bring it to pass.

December, now what happens December 28th? It’s side byside. Amen. There’s the sun, S-U-N. There’s the daystar. There’shusband and wife, mated, standing there in the daytime shining. TheS-U-N, if He don’t give Her the morning star, the light, She ain’t gonnareflect nothing. So He comes next to Her December 28th and He mateswith Her and She shines up in the daytime, praise God, to reflect in thedark evening time the approaching of the oncoming Son.

Perfect reflection, if you don’t look at the sun, you’ll see it.Comet typing out the star. I’m gonna read something to you and I’mgonna close. Now a funny strange thing, I was looking through thealmanac, the news, 1970, I had one home. So I was looking up cometswhen it first struck me about this Kohoutek Comet.

And I’m gonna read something to you on page 191 if you haveone. Comets sufficiently bright enough to be seen without a telescopeare rare, very rare, to be seen without a telescope rather. They can pickthem up all the time, see?

And this is number six this year, I think, already, this one here.In October, I didn’t know this here now. I told my wife, I said I sawsomething in there that made me move out of the chair. I was readingthat there, just a little simple thing.

In October and November 1965, when the Prophet left, a newcomet Ikeyaseki, I-k-e-y-a-s-e-k-i, was visible in the morning skiesbefore sunrise, in 1965, as the most spectacular comet since Haley’sComet in 1910. So there’s only been two that’s been seen with thenaked eye. Haley in 1910 and Ikeyaseki in ’65, and this is the third.Oh how I love Jesus. Amen Brother Ben? That’s what I was talkingabout last Thursday. Amen.

As the most spectacular comet since Haley’s in 1910. Barringthe unexpected, these are man’s words here, barring the unexpected

42appearance of a yet unknown bright comet - he left a possibility foranother one to come now - possibly at any time! The next bright comet...in other words if some unexpected comet don’t come, the next brightcomet due to appear, that you can see with the eye, is Haley’s Cometexpected in 1986.

Now if that ain’t the foolish virgins looking for that, 1906 allover again, tongues. The comet in 1910 signaled the three-year re-vival was finished with, the gifts. It was gonna fade on down until itcome down into nothing in 1946. Brother Branham said the revivallasts three years. That was the shuck. It was glorious out in AzusaStreet.

Well they had, it was wonderful in the ‘20’s and ‘30’s, but itwas going down, down, down, down, down, down. But the Comet,Haley’s Comet, shook up the world. It come out and signaled the endof the gift era was at hand, though it... but it had to go 40 years ofcourse.

And after Malachi 4 come, the second time you could see onevisible with the eye. And that same morning star is the one that bap-tized with the Holy Ghost in 1906; it’s the same morning star. And itcome as a little acorn seed, amen, in 1906, it come back here now withthe fullness, the Adoption, the inheritance. How are you gonna breakit? It’s in the signs.

And they’re talking about Token this and this and that and what-not. Brother, the Token is the Holy Ghost that appeared in 1906. See,that’s the Token. But you’ve got to... he had to put the life to it overhere.

Now Haley’s Comet signaled the end of the gifts. That’s whatI put down. Foolish virgins are looking for Haley’s Comet due againin 1986. They ain’t looking for nothing now. They’re going on, FullGospel Businessmen, this one and that one. They’re having a big re-vival and they’re dry and they’re looking to hear... the buildings... lookat Oral Roberts, what’s he doing? Universities and whatnot.

So therefore they must be looking toward 1986 again some-where. Is that right? Meanwhile in 1965 a new comet come out Octo-ber and November, seen in the morning. Malachi 4 was leaving thescene saying, “Goodbye.” He said, “But if you do what I told you,” He

43said, “I’ll meet you in Glory.” Amen?

He docked his hat to us on, “The Wings Of A Snow WhiteDove,” said the Message got home. That was November. And thismorning’s Comet was seen in the morning in November. He was say-ing goodbye. Oh praise our God. Thank the Lord. Praise the Name ofthe Lord. Hallelujah.

In 1973, November, December, January 1974, it’ll be seen inthe morning, then in the evening time. So the evening light Messageshall truly shine through a Bride as the morning stars.

Now what is this signaling yesterday? And now through theChristmas season, this mighty spectacular, what does it signal? It sig-nals the end of the ripening period. The maturing is over. The ripen-ing from green to golden brown. You are mature now. You are readyto become morning stars. You’re ready for the ministry of the Dynam-ics to come into your mechanics. Are you ready for it friends? Youwaiting for it? Praise God!

The coming forth of the morning star ministry to reflect thesoon approaching Son of righteousness who’ll rise with healing in Hiswings for these old vile bodies. They’ll be changed in a moment, in atwinkling of an eye. Praise God. “There Is A River.” Don’t you loveHim?

Three times the morning star appears. Three times the Cometappeared. Three times to be seen with the naked eye. 1910, 1965, andthey even said Barren, unexpected new star, and two new ones comeout in ’65 and 1973. Now you talking about coincidental? How canthat be? You must be full of pollution. Praise the Lord. Amen. Let usstand and sing, “There Is A River.” Do you love Him friends? What awonderful thing that is to know.

Remember I told you last week, I said maybe Sunday morningyou’ll understand that it’s all over with? Do you understand? Do youlove Him? Are you ready to go on and believe Him? Do you believethat this song says shalom to you? Peace? No more fretting? Nomore worrying? You’re gonna get the Holy Ghost?

See, because it’s a promise, it’s an oncoming thing. He’s gonnamate with you in the mating season. This is the mating season. Hus-band and wife becomes one.

44(Singing: “There Is A River”)

Oh praise His wonderful Name.Is there someone to be baptized here? Are they gonna be bap-

tized today? I’m not sure because I didn’t see them. They’re down-stairs already? Oh they went home. Oh amen, okay. Well praise theLord. Is someone here that don’t know the Lord in the pardon of theirsins? This morning star wants to say shalom to you this morning. Isthere one that don’t have this peace from the morning star? He’s speak-ing now, shalom, shalom, good morning. Would you right now as themorning star is over us, the Canopy of Life, would you want to giveyour life to Him this morning? Is there a morning star that needs to bepolished up and don’t know it’s a morning star? Oh He’s here now. Isthere one? Well shalom to you morning stars.

(Singing: “There Is A River”)

Oh praise His Name. Almost an hour an a half or so. I haven’tpreached so long in a long time. But I think that this message was veryimportant. Did the time go fast? I believe you morning stars is shinedup now. You’re ready for some more. Amen. Brother. You’re thegreediest morning stars I’ve seen in a long time because God put adeep down into you.

Luther wasn’t that greedy. Neither was Wesley and the Pente-costals. They were satisfied with the gifts. That was enough for them.“Hallelujah, ooh, Hallelujah.” You know? We want deep, deep, deep.We want to go back to the foundation and keep on drinking, drinking,drinking, drinking! Praise God, thank You Lord.

Let me pray for you, praise the Lord. Let us bow our heads.Our Heavenly Father, as we feel Your sweet Presence on us now, God,forgive our sins and unbelief Lord, and pollution. Father, this day maythis be one of the groups, we’re not biased Lord, and think we’ve got itall here. No sir.

We don’t think that Father. We just believe what we believehere. So may all the rest of the groups and this little group here, God,we’re waiting for that morning star ministry to give us a unity of faith

45and we can have the same fellowship and see eye to eye and march inthe ranks and get in step with that beautiful Bride that Your Prophetsaw in that vision.

Father, may every morning star in here believe that You’re gonnamate with them. Those without the Baptism of the Holy Ghost, thatyou raised up here and on a promise like Eve to wait to the multiplyingand replenishing season, may they wait with patience and overcome.The season is right upon us. Other wise this Message would not havecome and that Comet would not be here now.

So it signifies the end. And Your Prophet, that Comet come,and that was the end and he went away in December. Lord, is theresomething fixing to come forth? Then we wonder why Brother Huntesitting over here Wednesday night came forth and sowed us down withEphesians 4. Lord God Almighty, what does all this mean? We know,he didn’t know. I never told him anything.

The church was sowed down for St. Mark 16 church last Sun-day. He sowed down a ministry. Lord, what’s fixing to happen? Is itready? We believe, we have always believed Father, that there’s notone vindicated five-vold ministry on the field. William Branham wasthe only one and we’ve always told that to them and it ruffled up theirfur. They didn’t like it. But that’s the Word of God. They’re runningup and down with noise and earthquakes and fire and wind.

But Lord, we’re waiting for that still, small Voice, the One thatchanges you into morning stars. Then you’re vindicated, then youknow what you’re talking about because you’re reflecting the Powerof the S-U-N. God, may every morning star in here be able to reflectthat Power. The hour is here. May not one of them doubt no more, upin the balcony, and downstairs and those that are not here today, I prayfor all of them.

May this Resurrection Power now that I’m speaking about rightnow, may it come upon Sister Lucy, change her blood. We condemnthat parasite in her blood Lord, may it disintegrate, may our Sister bemade whole.

Oh God, may Your Resurrection Power now come upon Yourpeople and those that have sicknesses here now, this morning, LordGod Almighty, may the Resurrection Power of the reflection of the

46morning star shine upon them just now Lord and heal the sick and theafflicted in our midst. Go to Sister Edith Jackson, heal her Lord. OhGod, touch her Lord and raise her up this afternoon. Lord God, maythe Glory come over the people now Lord, the quickening Power.

From this day henceforth Lord, may they walk with a new in-ner ear, a new determination, a change come over the people. Maythey go out of here looking for the bright and morning star. You prom-ised to give it to the overcomers. Now bless them Father and be withthem throughout the day for we commit them into Thy hands, we prayand we ask it in Jesus’ Name. One more time.

Feast Of The Trumpets Jeff., In. 64-0719MPage 17 - 18 Go into the prophet’s chamber and watch themseven steps. Where did the guard meet the challenge to bring thecomer into the presence of the king at the top of the steps? Was inthe seventh step. There shows that we’ve got to come again withthat same Spirit that was on John. He introduced the Messiah; hewas greater than all the prophets; he introduced it.
