INTRODUCTION

At the beginning of the early church, the spirit of error slipped in slyly

within the pure Christianity and gradually plunged the church into a state of

seduction, to such an extent that the love of truth, over time became almost

a mere glimmer in total darkness.

Today, in a total decay, the church has lost almost all its bearings and

lives in a real confusion.

Since the Spirit of Truth and the spirit of error are at work today, it is the

responsibility of every believer to prove deeply anything before accepting it,

as recommended by the apostle John in his first epistle : " beloved, believe

not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many

false prophets are gone out into the world. hereby recognize.ye the Spirit of

God: Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ has come in the flesh is of

God, and every spirit that does not confess Jesus is not from God, it is that of

the Antichrist, which you have heard his coming, and is now already in the

world. You, grandchildren, you are from God and have overcome them,

because He who is in you is greater than he who is in the world. They are of

the world, and therefore speak they of the world, and the world heareth them

"- (1 John 4 1-4) -

It is in this spirit that the prophet William Branham also recommends the

Church of the Lord in his sermon DISCERNING THE SPIRITS 08-03-1960 said this :

" And we have an order from God, is for the discerning of spirit, trying the spirit.

I believe that the very great lesson for the church today, is to try the spirit of

anything, have discernment of the spirit. ... May it be the last or the first rain,

whether the inner or outer rain or no rain at all, whatever it is, we should never

judge by this, but by his spirit. We must discern the spirits. "

God bless you richly!

CAN BOTH THE HOLY SPIRIT AND SATAN SPEAK THROUGH

THE SAME INSPIRATION CHANNEL OF COMMUNICATION?

First, the word « to discern » stands for the ability to discover the nature,

the value of something, or the ability to distinguish between two confused or

mixed things. In one word, it is the ability to make A difference between true

and false in order to chase away any confusion or ambiguity.

It is in this context that the Lord Jesus walking the streets of Caesarea,

trying to teach the discernment of spirits, asked them, "Whom men say that I

the son of man am ?’’ .They replied, "Some say that thou art John the Baptist,

others Elijah, and others, Jeremiah or one of the prophets.’’ (Matt 16.13 -14).

The people did not compare the Lord Jesus to Pilate, Herod or a king. But they

compared him to one of the prophets. And what the people was thinking

about him was right, though they could not identify him really. In fact the

people had found in the Lord Jesus the lives of all the former prophets. The

Lord Jesus was the Master of the prophets because it is He who sent them one

by one. And when sending a prophet, He would put his Spirit in the prophet so

that the prophet did not live his own life but that of the Lord Jesus. And all the

prophets who came had the same life of the Lord who sent them. When the

one who sent them came, His life conformed to that of the prophets who

came before him. The generation he was living in could then identify him as a

prophet because of the life he was living. This was the case of the prophet

William Branham, sent by the Lord Jesus, who lived the same life; to such a

point that some unstable people worshiped him as the lord though he was

only a messenger.

And it's the same thing as far as choosing a bride or a pastor is

concerned because the characteristics of the choice of a pastor are similar

to choosing a wife. The prophet William Branham spoke about that in his

sermon THE CHOOSING OF A BRIDE 29-04-1965 EVENING ” But if he knows

what, he making the wrong choice and is marrying a woman that isn’t fit to be

his wife, and he does it anyhow, then it’s his fault. If the woman takes a

husband and knows that he’s not fit to be a husband to you, then that’s your

own fault, after you know what’s right and wrong. So, you shouldn’t do it until

you thoroughly pray through. The same applies by choosing a church. Now,

you must pray over the church that you are fellowshiping in. Remember,

churches carry spirit. Now, I don’t want to be critical. But I realize that I’m an

old man, and I got to leave here, one of these days. And I’ve got to answer at

the Day of the Judgment for what I say tonight or any other time. And I,

therefore, I’ve got to be dead earnest and truly convicted. But, you go into a

church, and if you’ll watch the behavior of that church, you just watch the

pastor awhile, and you’ll usually find that the church acts like the pastor.

Sometimes, I wonder if we just don’t get one another’s spirit in the stead of the

Holy Spirit. You get to a place where a pastor is real radical and carrying on,

you’ll find out the congregation is the same way. I’ll bring you to a church

where I see the pastor stand, jerk their heads back and forth. You watch the

congregation, they do the same thing. You take a pastor, just gulp down

anything, usually the church will do the same thing. So, if I was choosing a

church, I’d choose a genuine, fundamental, Full Gospel, Bible church, if I was

choosing one to put my family in.’’

The Life or the spirit that lives in a pastor must be the main thing that

every man must discern before making his choice. The spirit or the life of a

shepherd must reflect the life of Christ. And after the right choice, holding on

to this servant of God is the second thing to do for the Spirit of Christ in him will

certainly lead you to the presence of the Lord.

After the answer of the disciples, the Lord turned back to his apostles

saying: "And you, what is your revelation about me and what do you tell them

that I, the Son of Man am? When you look, what do you see? Clearly, what

do you think of me, you my disciples? "Peter took the floor and answered, ''I

think You are the Christ, the Son of the living God ''. (Matt 16.15-16).

Jesus satisfied with this answer, said spontaneously this: "Peter, a man did not

who tell you that, it is My Father who is in heaven that gave you this

revelation. And i Jesus having as intention to build my church, it is on this

revelation that I will build it! And the gates of hell shall not prevail against it!

And Peter, I promise I will give you the keys that will open heaven and

whatever you loose or bind on earth will be loosed or bound in the heaven!

And when you have the keys, from this moment, anyone you will find bound

in sickness, unbelief, pain, curse chains ... .All that you say pronouncing the

word, I, God, will confirm your word. "(Matt 16.17-19).

Jesus knew how to identify the word of His Father through man. That is

Why He said: " for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my father

which is in heaven. " Jesus acknowledged, believed and said amen to the

words of the Father, the Holy Spirit who spoke through a man: Peter. God had

made Peter a communication channel of the Inspiration, a means by which

he could speak, for He is Spirit.

When Satan saw that Jesus had believed the revelation, the inspiration

that came through Peter, he said to himself that he could also use the same

channel since he is a spirit too. He thought that if he could speak through the

same Peter, the channel for the communication of the inspiration, Jesus

would believe him and would succeed in diverting him from his goal.

In fact, you can see that five minutes after the powerful statement of

the Father through Peter, he opposed to Jesus and rejected what Jesus said

in Matt 16. 21-22 : "Therefore Jesus began to show his disciples that he must go

to Jerusalem and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and

scribes, and be killed in, and be raised again the third day. Then Peter took

him aside and began to rebuke him, saying, God forbid, Lord! This will not

happen to you. "

The same channel through which the Holy Spirit had spoken five minutes

before rejected and was against himself the plan of the Lord had prepared

for the world. The devil inspired Peter to express contrary thoughts to those of

Christ and the Holy Scriptures showing his opposition to the death of Christ yet

it was written that the Messiah had to suffer many things from elders and chief

priests and scribes and die as the Lamb to save the world.

Jesus, the Son of God, recognizing and believing the Word of the Father,

discerned this declaration of peter and pushed it away. He unmasked Satan

who spoke at this time through ! Peter: "Get behind me, Satan Thou art an

offense unto me: for thy thoughts are not the thoughts of God, but of men.

"(Matt 16. 23). In other words," it is true that this inspiration came through the

same channel for the communication of the inspiration but it did not come

from my father who is in heaven and I can’t accept it. "

The first time that Peter spoke, it was consistent with the Word, and that is why

the lord Jesus, the Son of God, having discerned the declaration of peter

recognized and believed that it was the Holy Spirit, his Father who spoke

through Peter. But when the same channel expressed another thing contrary

to Scriptures, the Lord Jesus who was the Son of God rejected and refused to

believe this word.

The same channel that received by inspiration the Voice of God and

transmitted it to men, was likewise inspired by the voice of the devil and

transmitted it to men of the earth !

However, the problem was not with the channel for the communication

of the inspiration Peter, but with the one who was to believe the inspired

channel.

The duty of every son of God is to discern every thought, every voice,

every inspiration, every word, every revelation that comes to him. For the

father, the Holy Spirit speaks and Satan who is the spirit of error speaks too !

Every spirit speaks only through one channel : through man. God uses man as

channel to speak and to act. Satan does likewise. The responsibility of any son

of God is not only to listen but to discern any inspiration that comes to him so

as not to take the voice of the devil to the detriment of the Voice of the

Father! It is true that the Church must listen to the channel of communication

of the inspiration of God but the Church MUST discern which word to believe

through this communication channel of the inspiration of God, since it is

possible that Satan can use the same channel to divert some elects from their

goal. Every child knows the true voice of his father even in the dark ! That is

why Jesus said "My sheep know my voice and they will not follow a stranger

"(John 10.5). And a true believer of the gospel will discern God's inspiration

from that of the devil coming out of the mouth of a man, no matter who he is.

He may be pastor, apostle evangelist, prophet, teacher or bishop ...

The Prophet Branham said in his sermon FOURTH SEAL - 21/03/1963 JEFF , IN ,

USA : “Truth and error cannot mix. It cannot mix. It's either the THUS SAITH THE

LORD, or it's wrong. No matter what "Holy Father" said it, Saint Boniface, or--or

the Archbishop of Canterbury. I don't know who said it; if it's contrary to the

Word, it's perversion. It won't mix. Say, "Why, this fellow done..." I don't care

what he done, how much holy he is or anything like that; this is the only direct

Truth that we have. No church, no creed has no Truth, if it's outside of this;

The Lord Jesus, the Son of God could not stop the devil from using the

same channel that God had chosen and used, but Jesus had to keep this

channel from influencing and convincing him so as not to believe and do all

that is contrary to the Word of God. Every true son of God must do the same!

The Lord Jesus on earth not only represented the Son of God, that is to say,

God in human flesh, but he took the position of the Church before the Father.

Jesus had the ability to discern voices, identify Words through man and reject

that which does not come from the Father. And this same capacity was also

given to any son of God. For, this capacity acting in a man makes him a

predestinated son of God. Being predestined is having the ability to recognize

and believe the pure word of God for his day.

CAN THE COMMUNICATION CHANNEL OF INSPIRATION BE JUGDED?

Following the idea that God's chosen channel can make human

choices, it's good to know that when choosing the replacement of the

Apostle Judas Iscariot, the human mind inspired apostles to make a bad

choice, particulary apostle peter. Indeed, after the suicide of Judas, the

apostle Peter, who had received the keys of sealing and unsealing and the

commission to strengthen his brethren in Luke 24. 31-32, read the Psalms and

gave conditions for the substitution of the false apostle Judas Iscariot. He

proposed that the replacement of Judas be chosen by lot and be part of

those who accompanied all the time Lord Jesus from his baptism by John until

the day he was caught and be a witness of His resurrection. The people's

choice after prayer and draw fell on Matthias.

But the teaching of the last messenger Prophet William M. Branham said

this was human choice, not God! In his sermon HEBREWS CHAPTER 6 PART 2 08-

09-57 Evening, he said: "When they selected a man to take Judas' place, they

got the wrong man. They got a gentleman, Matthias, a great scribe, a scholar,

a diplomat. They said, "He'll just take the real place. Boy, he looks like a real

man." But it wasn't God's choice. And he took this man, and he never done

nothing for God. "

Thus, the choice of peter was judged by the prophet and God. In fact,

the choice of God was Paul, who could not be chosen according to the

required conditions that Peter wanted. And it was that Paul, having the spirit

of discernment, who resisted, judged, corrected the apostle Peter and called

him a hypocrite in Galatians 2.11-14 : " But when Peter was come to Antioch, I

withstood him to the face, because he was to be blamed. For before that

certain came from James, he did eat with the Gentiles: but when they were

come, he withdrew and separated himself, fearing them which were of the

circumcision. And the other Jews dissembled likewise with him; insomuch that

Barnabas also was carried away with their dissimulation. But when I saw that

they walked not uprightly according to the truth of the gospel, I said unto

Peter before them all, If thou, being a Jew, livest after the manner of Gentiles,

and not as do the Jews, why compellest thou the Gentiles to live as do the

Jews? "

Paul knew that even if the Lord had given the keys of the kingdom to

Peter, he could be influenced by both spirits and therefore he had to prove

every word and inspiration of Peter to feel reassured to believe the right

thing. PETER, like all the other apostles continued to have ups and downs in

their lives until they left the body of sin in which they lived.

In addition, the Holy Spirit did not also hide the errors of His messengers

but revealed them in order to correct, to help and save believers. The

prophet William Branham, talking about that declared in the EXPOSITION OF

SEVEN AGES - THE AGE OF THE CHURCH OF SARDES " God used an Abraham (

he lied ), a Moses ( he rebelled ) a Jonas ( disobeys ), a Samson ( he sinned ),

a David ( he murdered ). Likewise, he used Joshua and Joseph. And those

with severe blemishes far outnumber those whose histories seem to be

perfect. "

He continued by stating in the same chapter : " God raised up many mighty

men of which Luther was but one. Calvin and Zwingli were two other

luminaries and besides these were many, many more who are not so well

known. However, though all this was not in vain, the mighty work of God was

actually hindered by these very men. For one thing, they did NOT oppose the

Church-State marriage of the Nicene Council but actually fostered that union.

The defense of the Gospel by the state was welcomed though there was no

Word for it. And though we can see "the wrath of man praising God," in such

events as Henry the Eighth taking up for the reformation and the rejection of

papal authority, it was a far cry from the truth of Pentecost and protection of

an omnipotent God. In spite of Luther's constant teaching against outside

interference in local church matters he was not able to clear men's minds of

the "Bishop, Archbishop" concept of church government. Thus the church

took one step in the right direction but still remained shackled, so in short

order she was again imprisoned in the same dungeon whence she had

attempted to escape. Still the cup of the abominable works was not yet full.

Not only did Luther through poor judgment incite to battle and thereby cause

the death of multitudes; but Zwingli's party persecuted unto prison the godly

Dr. Hubmeyer, and though it did not commit him to the stake, it was actually

responsible in great measure for his eventual death by fire. And Calvin did no

less, for he demanded the arrest of Servetus who had seen and taught the

oneness of the Godhead. The State then tried this brother, and to Calvin's

dismay he was burned at the stake. "

However, the Holy Spirit calls them true servants of God! Because in all

of them the sovereign will of God was fulfilled.

Despite their mistakes, they remain true servants of God. In Hebrews

11.1-38, the Holy Spirit says that all His messengers, though they made

mistakes in their lives are, by their faith, true servants of God in whom the Lord

was fully manifested.

WHY DOES THE LORD OFTEN ENABLE THE DEVIL TO EXPRESS HIMSELF THROUGH

HIS COMMUNICATION CHANNEL OF INSPIRATION?

To answer this question, the story of the Prophet and King David can be given

as an example. When David decided to number the people of Israel in 1

Chronicles 21: 1-17, the Bible says that it was Satan who inspired him to do so.

Now David was a prophet-king that is to say, GOD’s channel for the

communication of the inspiration. God used DAVID to talk to his people, and

Satan, seeing that the children of Israel were listening to that channel, and

wanting to destroy them, inspired David to count the people without any

order from the authorized voice of God (the prophet who is God's word).

Once the counting was done, the Bible says that God's anger was kindled

against David, and sent Gad the prophet told him to choose one of these

three plagues, namely :

1. Three years of famine,

2. Three months where the people will be destroyed by his opponents

and killed by the sword of his enemies,

3. Three days of plagues among the people.

All these three proposals were designed to kill people, not David himself the

guilty. God's judgment did not touch David the guilty but rather the people

(Innocent) .This false inspiration of Satan through David occasioned the death

of more than seventy thousand (70,000) men of Israel with pestilence and

destruction by the lord’s Angel, of one part of Jerusalem.

Why that ? Talking about the same census by David, the Bible says the

wrath of God was kindled against Israel, and so, God moved David to the

number Israel. " The anger of the LORD was kindled against Israel, and he

pushed David against them, saying, go, number Israel and Judah.’’ (2 Samuel

24: 1).

This implies that God sometimes happens to even let his true servant receive a

false inspiration for a purpose. When God is angry and wants to kill a group of

people, he allows the channel through which he expresses himself and

through which the group also believes to do contrary things to His will to pour

his anger on this group! But he that has the ability to discern that this is not

God's will saves his life. But the others who accept without discerning the

actions or words die by the edge of the Lord’s sword !

The story of the prophet Solomon can also be given as an illustration.

King Solomon who received all the wisdom of God to better serve the Lord,

became the idolatrous at end of his life. As the Bible says in 1 Kings 11.1-12 "

King Solomon loved many foreign women, besides the daughter of Pharaoh:

Moabite, Ammonite, Edomites , Sidonians , and Hittites , from the nations

whose LORD said unto the children of Israel: Ye shall not go in to them, neither

shall they with you , for surely they will turn away your hearts after their gods. It

was these nations that cleft Solomon, driven by love. He had seven hundred

wives, princesses, and three hundred concubines : and his wives turned away

his heart at the time of Solomon was old, that his wives turned away his heart

after other gods . , and his heart was not perfect with the LORD his God, as was

the heart of David his father. Solomon went after Ashtoreth the goddess of the

Sidonians, and after Milcom the abomination of the Ammonites. And Solomon

did evil in the eyes of the LORD, and went not fully after the LORD, as did David

his father. So Solomon built on the hill that is before Jerusalem a high place for

Chemosh, the abomination of Moab, and for Molech, the abomination of the

son of Ammon. And so he did for all his foreign wives, who burned incense

and sacrificed to their gods. The Lord was angry against Solomon because he

had turned his heart to the Lord, the God of Israel, who had appeared to him

twice. He had commanded him to go after other gods that regard; but he did

not keep the commands of the LORD commands. And the Lord said to

Solomon : Because thou hast done this thing, and hast not kept my covenant

and my statutes that I have commanded thee, I will surely remove the

kingdom from thee, and I will give it to thy servant . But I will not do it in your

days, because of David thy father. I will remove it from the hand of your son ".

The Lord, because of the idolatry of Solomon, divided his kingdom not when

he was king, but during the reign of his son. Also, those who worshiped foreign

gods that Solomon made and those who married foreign women sinned

against the Lord as said Nehemiah 13. 26-28 ‘‘Did not Solomon king of Israel

sin by these things? yet among many nations was there no king like him, who

was beloved of his God, and God made him king over all Israel: nevertheless

even him did outlandish women cause to sin. Shall we then hearken unto you

to do all this great evil, to transgress against our God in marrying strange

wives ?’’

As another example, in Exodus chapter 32, the prophet Aaron, during

the absence of Moses and the pressure of the people made a golden calf

made of the rings and earrings of the people. When Moses returned, he saw

that the people were in disorder, and that Aaron had let them in that

disorder, exposed to shame among their enemies, he stood in the gate of the

camp, and said : "Then Moses stood in the gate of the camp, and said, Who is

on the LORD'S side? let him come unto me. And all the sons of Levi gathered

themselves together unto him. And he said unto them, Thus saith the LORD

God of Israel, Put every man his sword by his side, and go in and out from

gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every

man his companion, and every man his neighbour. And the children of Levi

did according to the word of Moses: and there fell of the people that day

about three thousand men.. (Exodus 32. 26-28)

God was not pleased with this judgment. So he decided to blot out of his

book those who worshiped the golden calf made by Aaron. The prophet

William Branham said in EXPOSITION OF 7 AGES CHURCH - THE SARDISEAN

CHURCH AGE : " In order to further clarify this removal of a name from the

Book of Life we ought to extend our thoughts to Israel in the days of Moses.

Exodus 32:30-34, "And it came to pass on the morrow, that Moses said unto

the people, Ye have sinned a great sin: and now I will go up unto the Lord;

peradventure I shall make an atonement for your sins. And Moses returned

unto the Lord, and said, Oh, this people have sinned a great sin, and have

made them gods of gold. Yet now, if Thou wilt forgive their sins--; and if not,

blot me, I pray Thee, out of Thy book which Thou hast written. And the Lord

said unto Moses, whosoever hath sinned against Me, him will I blot out of My

book. Therefore now go, lead the people unto the place of which I have

spoken unto thee: behold Mine Angel shall go before thee: nevertheless in the

day when I visit I will visit their sin upon them." It is more than evident that

names have been, and will be removed from the Book of Life ere time shall be

no more. In this particular place it was because of idolatry, even as when Dan

and Ephraim lost their rights as tribes for worshipping the golden calves. All

who worshipped the idols had their names removed from the Book of Life.

When Israel rejected the leadership of God in the pillar of fire, and turned to

worship the golden calves their names were removed from the Book of Life. ‘’

So God allowed Aaron to make a golden calf in order to separate

those who were on the side of the Lord from those who are always ready to

worship idols. The worship of the golden calf caused the death of the so-

called believers and the removal of their names from the Book of Life.

In addition to the fact that the Lord sometimes allows his channel to do

things contrary to His Word or say contrary things to His Word such as false

prophecies, the introduction of pagan feasts, he can enable false prophets to

do wonders in order to pour his wrath on those who will believe that false

servant of God.

The Bible says in Deuteronomy 13.1-6 that : “If there arise among you

a prophet, or a dreamer of dreams, and giveth thee a sign or a wonder, And

the sign or the wonder come to pass, whereof he spake unto thee, saying, Let

us go after other gods, which thou hast not known, and let us serve them; Thou

shalt not hearken unto the words of that prophet, or that dreamer of dreams:

for the LORD your God proveth you, to know whether ye love the LORD your

God with all your heart and with all your soul.Ye shall walk after the LORD your

God, and fear him, and keep his commandments, and obey his voice, and ye

shall serve him, and cleave unto him. And that prophet, or that dreamer of

dreams, shall be put to death; because he hath spoken to turn you away from

the LORD your God, which brought you out of the land of Egypt, and

redeemed you out of the house of bondage, to thrust thee out of the way

which the LORD thy God commanded thee to walk in. So shalt thou put the

evil away from the midst of thee. If thy brother, the son of thy mother, or thy

son, or thy daughter, or the wife of thy bosom, or thy friend, which is as thine

own soul, entice thee secretly, saying, Let us go and serve other gods, which

thou hast not known, thou, nor thy fathers’’

Thus the fulfillment of a prophecy or a sign should not be the capital thing the

people must look but the teaching that follows the fulfillment of this sign or

the wonder! The look should rather be focused on the nature of the teaching

following a prophecy or a sign, not the sign itself ! God can allow someone to

announce something that will be fulfilled and teach things contrary to

Scriptures, just to test the people!

As an illustration, in Exodus 23, God's purpose for Israel was to get him

out of Egypt and to enter the land of Canaan to serve Him. But many died,

struck by the wrath of God in the desert before entering Canaan because of

idolatry, murmurs and rebellion. The most striking fact was that of idolatry in

the plains of Moab which cost the lives of more than forty-three thousand

(43,000) despite being Israelites all passed through the waters of baptism in

the Red Sea, saw great miracles, all ate the manna, all drank water from the

rock, and all benefited Blessings. Indeed, the Bible reveals that the prophet

Balaam managed to cause more Jews in the spiritual fornication by his

teaching. This Moabite prophet had the same sacrifices and the same rituals

(seven bulls, seven altars, seven rams).He was in the midst of Moab like

Prophet Moses among the people of Israel. But Balaam, though he could

have a true revelation from the Lord, the purpose of his teaching was to

encourage Israel to be placed under a yoke in which God would be forced

to destroy Israel. Just as Satan knew he could seduced Eve (make her fall in

the sins of the flesh), and thus bring God to apply death sentence

pronounced against sin. Balaam knew that if he could bring Israel to sin, God

would have to deal with them by death. He conceived by his education in

Israel, a plan to make them to sin. He invited them to the party of Baal-Peor

where Israel began to play the harlot with the daughters of Moab, to the

worship of false gods. (Numbers 25.1-18). This aroused the wrath of God and

forty three thousand (43,000) Israelites perished in the judgment !

The teaching of Balaam was to push the people of Israel to make a great

mistake and be defeated while Moses’ plan was placing the people in

victory. The Prophet William M. Branham in his sermon THE ANOINTED ONE OF

THE END TIME, - M25.07.1965 : Balaam, anointed with the same Spirit that was

upon Moses. What was the difference? The teaching of Moses was perfect.

The Bible said here in Second Peter, that it was "the teaching of Balaam" that

Israel received, that God never did forgive. Unpardonable sin! Not a one of

them got saved, though they had come out under the blessings of God, and

seen the hand of God moving by this mighty prophet, and seen it exactly

vindicated by God. And, because, another prophet come in with a teaching,

contrary, and disputed with Moses, and tried to prove to the people that

Moses was wrong. And Dathan, Korah, and many of them, agreed with him

and taught the children of Israel to commit fornications, to go after his

organization, that, "We're all the same. Now, "the teaching of Balaam," not the

prophecy of Balaam. That was all right. That was God. How many believes

that? The prophecy of Balaam was exactly right, 'cause he couldn't speak

nothing else. The anointing of God wouldn't speak nothing else, and God

vindicated it by proving it was the Truth. But it was "the teaching of Balaam ‘’

Balaam did the same manifestations than Moses. He prophesied right on

Israel, nevertheless, his teaching was different from that of the prophet Moses

because the teaching of Balaam led to the death while Moses’ one led to

life!

The attitude of Balaam is comparable to those of the two magicians of

Pharaoh, Jannes and Jambres, who did the same miracles, the same signs as

Moses before Pharaoh but which were contrary to the teaching of Moses. The

prophet Moses was changing its stick into a snake in order to convince

Pharaoh to let God's people go free. Jannes and Jambres, also changed

their sticks into snake in order to convince Pharaoh to always keep the

people in captivity.

Israel was seduced by the prophecies and sacrificial rites of Balaam

and failed to discern the nature of his teaching. The prophet William Branham

spoke about it in MODERN EVENTS MADE CLEAR BY PROPHECY 06-12-1965

Evening : ‘‘All them Israelites, after they had seen Moses perform that and

brought them right up to the great council, where it was to be held, every one

of them said, "We'll go with Balaam, because we think Dr. Balaam's right. He's

smarter, is more educated, everything, so we'll just take it." And God never

did forgive them, He destroyed them right there in the wilderness. And Jesus

said, Himself, "They'll never come, there's none of them saved." Jesus said

They said, "Our fathers eat manna in the wilderness for forty years." He said,

"They're every one dead, eternally separated from God. They're every one

dead. (John 6.49). " Certainly ! Because they listened to an error ’’.

In one word, the people are tested by the Lord in order to :

First separate those who love Him with all their heart and all their soul and

believe His Word from those who don’t believe and do not paying

attention to him.

Secondly punish and destroy by his wrath all the make-believers who

don’t discerned all things by the Scriptures and believe before

applying.

PROPHETIC MINISTRY OF PAUL AND THE LAST PROPHET-MESSENGER

WILLIAM BRANHAM, THE ONLY INFALLIBLE MINISTRIES

The Bible tells us that God used the Holy Spirit in Seven Evangelical

Enlightenment to illuminate the seven different ages. And the prophet William

Branham gave the name and ministry of each of these seven messengers. He

later said that the first messenger (Paul) was a prophet and the last

messenger (Elijah) was a prophet but the other five were mere reformers.

The Word of God only coming to the true prophets of God with the Thus

saith the Lord, this means that only two messengers among all the messengers

who came Over the 7 ages (the first was the prophet and messenger apostle

Paul and the second was the messenger prophet William Branham) received

the power of infallibility and the ministry of Infallibility; and nobody else.

In fact, the messenger Paul with a ministry of infallibility declared in 1

corinthiens 3.10-11 : "According to the grace of God which is given unto me,

as a wise master builder, I have laid the foundation, and another buildeth

thereon. But let every man take heed how he buildeth thereupon. For other

foundation can no man lay than that is laid, which is Jesus Christ." And in Acts

20:27 " for I have not shunned to declare unto you all the counsel of God." or

in Galatians 1:8-9 : ‘’But though we, or an angel from heaven, preach any

other gospel unto you than that which we have preached unto you, let him be

accursed. As we said before, so say I now again, If any man preach any other

gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be accursed !’’

And the last messenger prophet William Branham also received an

infallible ministry as he explained in his EXPOSITION OF 7 CHURCH AGES – THE

LAODICEAN CHURCH AGE : ‘‘But i deny upon the infallible evidence of the

word that there is more than one major prophet-messenger who will reveal

the mysteries as contained in the word, and who has the ministry to turn the

hearts of the children to the fathers. "Thus saith the lord" by his unfailing word

stands, and shall stand and be vindicated. There is one prophet-messenger to

this age. On the basis of human behavior alone, anyone knows that where

there are many people there is even divided opinion on lesser points of a

major doctrine which they all hold together. Who then will have the power of

infallibility which is to be restored in this last age, for this last age is going to go

back to manifesting the Pure Word Bride? That means we will have the Word

once again as it was perfectly given, and perfectly understood in the days of

Paul. I will tell you who will have it. It will be a prophet as thoroughly

vindicated, or even more thoroughly vindicated than was any prophet in all

the ages from Enoch to this day, because this man will of necessity have the

capstone prophetic ministry, and God will shew him forth. He won't need to

speak for himself, God will speak for him by the voice of the sign ".

And his experience beyond the curtain of time, he said in his Sermon

PRESENT STATE OF MY MINISTRY 08-09-1962 : ‘’And now just compare that

ministry with what we're going through today. Compare the teaching of Saint

Paul. Remember in the little Heavenly thing that I saw, I said, "Well, will Paul

have to stand with his people?" They said, "Yes." I said, "I have preached the

same Word he did, just exactly stayed with the same Gospel." And millions

throwed up their hands and said, "We're resting on That."

The prophet William Branham preached exactly the same gospel that

Paul preached, restoring and bringing by his message everything that was

preached by prophets and apostles and that was dislocated through the

ages. The apostle Paul had the Alpha Gospel and Prophet William Branham

the Omega gospel. Thus these two prophets’ messengers of the 7 church

ages preached to the Bride.

All the fullness of the Word of Jesus Christ, as Paul says in Acts 20:27. But

the other messengers being reformers did not have the fullness of the Word.

Therefore, the Ministries of reformers and gap messengers did not possessed

the power of infallibility! Thus, these two gospels being the same thing,

everybody could make doctrinal errors but not these two unique prophet

messengers of the 7 ages!

The apostle Paul and the Prophet William Branham are in no case

comparable to other reformers or gap messengers who existed or will exist

until the Bride’s rapture !

Therefore, the message of Malachi 4 remains the last message and there will

be no greater message than this as he said in his sermon DO NOT BE AFRAID, IT

IS I 14-04-1961 : " remember, Thus said the Lord, this is your last sign! Write this

in your bible. Apart from this If there something bigger than this appears, call

me a false prophet. This is a strong statement. I watch what I say I am in

contact with more than ten million people around the world. Therefore I must

say that I know I did not say it myself. "

This statement was supported in the message QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 12-

01-1961. " But let me say this, that there will come--there will come a

message, and there will come a messenger. I believe that if it's to be a man,

it--it'll be somebody after me. See? It'll be... But this message that I'm

preaching is the true message of this day, and it's the last message. You see

what I'm doing, brethren ? I'm putting you all the same place I am, 'cause

you're just as much into it as I am. "

There will be no greater message than that of Malachi 4. This is the last

Message because it will be preached in the midst of the Jews after the

rapture of the bride by the two olive trees for the 144 000.

Therefore, no one should misinterpret or misplace, dislocate or even reject the

prophetic word, as said in 2 Peter 1: 19 : " we have also a more sure word of

prophecy, which you do well to pay attention as unto a light that shineth in a

dark place, until the day dawns and the morning star rises in your hearts."

This prophetic word must be held with certainty and firmly.

Believers of Malachi 4’s message are then messengers of the same

glorious message he revealed by the Thus saith the Lord to the bride. Further,

he meant in his message SPIRIT OF TRUTH that "someone else will rise after him

to continue with the message. AS LONG AS IT IS SCRIPTURAL, hang on there’’

The Prophet was showing the bride that any ministry or auxiliary who would

come after him would comply with his message. Saying: " AS LONG AS IT IS

SCRIPTURAL, hang on there’’ he implied that" as long as he remains with the

word, believe him; but if he deviates from the word, do not believe him".

Why that? Because he himself said in the sermon SPEAK TO THIS MOUNTAIN

23-11-1959 : “But if it's the Word of God, the Angel of God will verify that Word

every time to be the truth, if it's a true Angel from the Lord. If it's something off

color, then don't you listen to it. But if an Angel comes and speaks and says

just exactly what the Word says, then that Angel's from God ». If angel of the

Lord told me something that is not in the Bible, I do not believe it. "

SOME CLARIFICATIONS ON THE MINISTRY OF NEW YORK CITY OF

APOSTLE JOSEPH COLEMAN AND THE TARES JULIAN BRUNELLE

Since 1965, the New York City ministry of Apostle Joseph Coleman, was

distinguishable from others by its teaching and its similarity to the revealed

and confirmed promises of Malachi 4’s 7seals/ 7 thunders message. The

Angel of the Covenant who descended in rev10.1 veiled and identified

himself again in that ministry echoing the 7 seals / 7 thunders message and

fulfilling rev10.8-11. This ministry was identified as an apostolic ministry, an echo

or a gap ministry after the prophetic ministry. So Brother Coleman was an

auxiliary or gap messenger as well as Polycarp, St. Patrick of Ireland, Zwingli,

Calvin ...

An echo maker, to put faith in the message of Malachi 4.5-6: The 7 thunders.

However, these seven thunders was revealed by the prophet Malachi 4:

5-6 as one of two principal elements of his ministry as he says himself in

LAODICEAN.CHURCH.AGE - BOOK CPT.9 quote 327-1 ”Now this messenger of

Malachi 4 and Revelation 10:7 is going to do two things.

- One: According to Malachi 4 he will turn the hearts of the children to the

fathers.

- Two: He will reveal the mysteries of the seven thunders in Revelation 10

which are the revelations contained in the seven seals. It will be these

divinely revealed 'mystery-truths' that literally turn the hearts of the

children to the Pentecostal fathers. Exactly so.”

Thus the seven thunders are not an exclusive revelation of Brother Joseph

Coleman but he echoed the revelation coming from the ministry of the

prophet William Branham.

That is the reason why the Bride of Christ had her eyes turned to the Word that

was being manifested in New York City ministry.

However, the spirit of error crept into the auxiliary ministry which was

coming to its end in October 2010 with supernatural events contrary to the

Holy Scriptures and false prophecies made by an individual who had been in

that church for two (2) years that is to say in 2008. Julian Brunel prophecies

given to him by an angel through writings on the wall saying that the apostle

Joseph Coleman would not die but regain perfect health and even be

turned to a young man of twenty-one (21) to preach the last message to the

world to release the dynamic! This prophecy was given with specific dates

and was approved, supported and preached by the Apostle himself. But

January 5th, 2012, the apostle died without any fulfillment! Was it the voice of

God still speaking to the Bride? Should the bride Believe or cling to this false

prophecy because the Apostle of God Joseph Coleman approved it?

First of all concerning the mystery of the body change, the prophet

William Branham in his evening message. CONFIRMATION.AND.EVIDENCE_S

GATE CA THURSDAY_ 62-0621E : ‘‘The other day when I turned my fifty-third

year, I said to the wife; I said, "You know, I would... What if in the morning

when I wake up, if--I'm on my birthday--if there would stand the Lord, Jesus,

as I noticed the Angel of the Lord standing in the corner, that Light... Beneath

that Light would stand the Lord Jesus, and He'd come to me, and say, 'What is

your desire?'" I'd say, "Lord, that I might live longer to serve You." And He'd

say, "It's granted. I'll turn you back. Now, you'll be twenty years old, or

eighteen years old. Live the rest of the time out again on serving Me." But that

wouldn't be right. If I went back to be twenty years old, then my wife... And

here I've got a son twenty-seven. So that wouldn't be right. So then I thought,

"Well, I love my wife so. And to see her forty-three years old and me eighteen;

that wouldn't be right." Then I thought, "Well, what would I ask for?" I thought,

"Well, now, if I would say... Well, I--I couldn't ask for that, because... Again,

here's another thing. See, these people that I preach to in my generation, I'll

have to raise with that generation. See? I'll have to rise in the judgment with

this generation, to declare the ministry that I've preached. See? So I couldn't

go back in another generation and die over here under this generation after

preached to this generation." So I thought, "Well, as far as I know I'm healthy,

as far as I know anything about. And I still got good sight; hearing's strong.

And the ministry that He gave me, I'm so thankful for it. I've--I've done the best

I could with it. So there's isn't but one thing I could do, and that's say, 'Lord

Jesus, I'm thankful that I--that I'm what I am by the grace of God.'" That's

right.”

This means that any man who prophesies rejuvenation or body change

regardless of the affirmation of God through the last Prophet messenger

William Branham is wrong because the Lord can not rejuvenate one person

without taking his wife into account and the generation to which he

preached, since he will be judged with this generation.

Also, before he makes the rejuvenation of the body, the dead in Christ,

not one, will rise first and appear to the living in Christ on earth and it will

produce the body change of believers remained alive as evidenced

1Thessalonians 4.16-18 : “For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with

a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and with the trump of God: and the

dead in Christ shall rise first: Then we which are alive and remain shall be

caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so

shall we ever be with the Lord. Wherefore comfort one another with these

words ".

The prophet William Branham goes further in his sermon HOW CAN I

OVERCOME_ JEFF.IN V-4 N-12 SUNDAY_ 63-0825M :” But, that won't hurt the

Rapture, now. See? No. They come first, then. Them are privileged, that's gone

on. They come first. See? See? "We which are alive and remain, to the Coming

of the Lord, will not hinder or prevent those that are asleep. The trumpet of

God shall sound; the dead in Christ shall rise first. Then when our eyes behold

our loved ones, then we'll be changed, in a moment, in a twinkling of an eye,

and with them shall be caught up together." See? The ones that goes first are

privileged above those that are living”.

And also in his sermon GOING BEYOND THE CAMP_JEFF.IN V-6 N-3

SUNDAY_64-0719E : ‘‘And, oh, how thankful we are for all of God's great

blessings! May it continue to be with us until that last trumpet blows and, you

know, "We'll be caught up together, to meet the Lord in the air." Think of it!

Missing people, they can't see you no more, but you're getting together with

the rest of the group. "They which are alive and remain to the Coming of the

Lord shall not prevent, or hinder," the word is, "those which are asleep," not

dead. No, Christians don't die. They're just taking a little rest, see. That's all. Oh,

appear to many. And all at once, you happen to stand and look, and, well,

there's a brother, and you know it ain't long. In a few minutes, "We'll be

changed, in a moment, in a twinkling of an eye. And together with them, be

missing on earth, caught up to meet the Lord in the air.".

Some would think of the rejuvenation of Abraham! But Abraham was

rejuvenated and so was his wife ! The prophet William Branham made it clear

in THE JUNCTION OF TIME_ JEFF.IN SUNDAY_ 56-0115 : ” There was Noah in his

time. Here's Israel in their time. Here's Abraham at the next junction between

the--the world, the natural and the supernatural. Angels came down, that

looked like men. Glory. And stood by Abraham, the prophet, and told him,

"Abraham, God will perform the supernatural. About this time next year

according to life, I'll visit you, your wife a hundred years old, and you'll bring

forth a child. I'll show you My power of Divine healing. I'll change you and turn

you back to a young man again, and I'll change Sarah and make her a

different person, and make her a young woman. I'm the Miraculous; I'm

Omnipotent. I do the miraculous." Amen. "I'll show you My power. Abraham,

we're at the junction time." The evil spirits are down yonder in Sodom, yes.

They're working among the world down there.”

It is for this reason that the Prophet William Branham asked the question in his

sermon we just quoted above: " What shall it be concerning my wife who is

forty three years old? “

All this shows that the angel that appeared and gave those false

prophecies to Julian Brunelle was not the Angel of the Lord because the

writing on the wall left by this angel was terribly false!

The prophet William Branham said in A TESTIMONY ON THE SEA_

DALLAS.TX V-19 N-11 SATURDAY_64-0307 :”… If the Angel of the Lord told me

something that wasn't in the Bible, it wouldn't be the Angel of the Lord. That's

right. He has never one time told me anything but what was in that Word, and

you bear me record. He has never said one thing, out of the hundreds of

thousands and thousands, and the languages of the world, has He ever one

time said anything wrong, or said anything that didn't come to pass.” Or

again, he says in THE FOURTH SEAL_JEFF.IN THURSDAY_ 63-0321 quote 284-2

{40}: "Well, this--this angel, this--this appeared to--to Saint Boniface and said

this, that, and the other and they can say this." I don't doubt that a bit in my

mind but what somebody seen the vision. I--I don't doubt what Joseph Smith

saw the vision, but it wasn't according to the rest of the Word. So therefore, to

me it's wrong. See? It has to come with the rest of the Word.”

when I... One time read in the Bible about hell, and I begin to read that the

word "hell" come from the word "hades" which meant "the grave." And I was

for about three years or four, I would not preach the subject of hell, because

one place it looked like it was a burning fire; the next place was the grave.

Until I found the truth of it, then when I got to know exactly what it was, and by

the help of the Angel of the Lord that revealed it to me, 'cause I did not get

any schooling, and I just hold on to a Scripture and pray and search the

Scriptures until He comes and reveals it to me. When He stands before me in

of the Lord, because He bears record of His Word. And if that Angel told me

one thing that wasn't Scriptural, I would not believe Him. It has to be with the

Word first. God's Word is eternal. 'Cause an angel could come and preach

something else, Paul said, that wasn't right. But if it's the Word of God, the

Angel of God will verify that Word every time to be the truth, if it's a true Angel

from the Lord. If it's something off color, then don't you listen to it. But if an

Angel comes and speaks and says just exactly what the Word says, then that

Angel's from God.”

In addition, when the angel of the Lord appeared to the shepherds and

announced the birth of the Messiah, they went and found things exactly as

the angel had told them, concerning the exact place where he had said that

the Messiah would be !

This means that the angel that comes from the Lord is consistent with the

Scripture and always announces prophecies that are fulfilled with precision.

Outside that, it is an angel of the devil ! And a fallen angel must be expelled:

‘'Satan, get away from me'’ as the messenger reformer Saint Martin did with a

crowned angel who came to him as the lord Jesus and asked Saint Martin to

worship him.

All the three (The Angel, the Word and the prophet) are agreed as the

prophet said in GOD KEEPS HIS WORD_ JEFF.IN SUNDAY_57-0407M : “Look, my

friend. They had what? First the Word, second a prophet, third an Angel to

lead them, to guide them; everyone agreed with the other, the three of them.

The Word agreed with the prophet, and the prophet agreed with the Word. The

Angel agreed with all three of them, all of them. The Word, the prophet, an

Angel, they were ready for the march. Oh, blessed be the Name of the Lord

God. We're at the end time. The Word, the prophet, and the Angel, all three of

them together, one great testimony... God always said, "In the mouth of two or

three witnesses, let every word be established."

So this prophecy of Julian Brunelle, that was not fulfilled, showed that it did not

come from the Lord! It was brought by the devil as Satan disguises himself as

an angel of light!

The prophet William BRANHAM confirms it in THE THIRD SEAL_JEFF.IN

WEDNESDAY_63-0320 : ’’And then... And if it come to me and didn't compare

with the rest of the Scriptures, then God never give it. See, the Scriptures has to

everyone; it's just one great big--big thing, like that. Scripture has to agree

with Scripture, and anything contrary to the Scripture... If that Angel of the Lord

told me anything that wasn't Scriptural, I wouldn't believe Him.”

The prophet William Branham goes further in YOU MUST BE BORN AGAIN_

JEFF.IN V-11 N-5 SUNDAY_61-1231M : “…Cause you jerked all over, you got It.

Oh, because you got a real funny feeling went over you, you--you seen lights

in front of you, and got blind and staggered, that's Elijah's jacket put on you.

That's right, you got It. Oh, you know what you are? You're a manifested son of

God." Where do you find yourself? Defeated. That's right. "Glory to God, I went

one night and I had a dream." Oh, yes, uh-huh. See? "Oh, I seen this, that..."

Yeah, uh-huh. "You--don't you believe in dreams?" Yes, sir, I certainly do. But

if that dream didn't back up God's Word, then it's wrong. This is the Truth here;

stay in This...”

This means that the supernatural manifestations must be confirmed by

the Word of God if not, they are purely of the devil !

And every prophecy must be fulfilled and be confirmed by the Word to

show its authenticity and veracity as in said in Deuteronomy 18.18-22: ” I will

raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put

my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command

him. And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words

which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him. But the prophet,

which shall presume to speak a word in my name, which I have not

commanded him to speak, or that shall speak in the name of other gods,

even that prophet shall die. And if thou say in thine heart, How shall we know

the word which the LORD hath not spoken? When a prophet speaketh in the

name of the LORD, if the thing follow not, nor come to pass, that is the thing

which the LORD hath not spoken, but the prophet hath spoken it

presumptuously: thou shalt not be afraid of him.”

The prophet William Branham backed it up in his sermon THE SPOKEN

WORD IS THE ORIGINAL SEED_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-1 SUNDAY_ 62-0318 : “…Then if

God said anything, there you are; It's got to be fulfilled. Or if it isn't, that's not

the Word of God…”

Julian Brunelle is a false prophet whose prophecies and manifestations

come from hell. And every true servant of God must say loudly and clearly to

warn God's people of the danger they face in continuing to believe a word

God did not said.

IMPORTANT NOTE

Does this mean that the ministry of the apostle Joseph Coleman is no

longer true? God forbid ! Far from it !

If someone thinks that the intrusion of Julian Brunelle with false prophecies and

visions at the end (which divert more of the same objective was to the

apostle) of the ministry of Joseph Coleman made the apostle a false servant,

that person is strongly wrong !

Indeed, how can he explain the fact that Moses, who rebelled, Jonah

who disobeyed, that Samson who sinned, David who murdered, Joseph who

lied and many others who committed serious mistakes are found in Hebrews

11 as saints and heroes of faith, awaiting the resurrection for the rapture?

The Holy Spirit did not hide the mistakes of these great men of God just to

serve as an example to all those who believe the Word today, so that every

time they sin or make mistakes, they can repent and be forgiven by God and

continue their christian walk, and by doing so, God will also write their story

one day when they have finished the race and be considered as heroes of

faith as the Lord has considered these great men. Their sins will not be

mentioned because they will have been confessed and forgiven. But the only

thing that will be mentioned will be their faith.

But anyone who will repeat the mistakes of these men of God by not

discerning the Word will be put to death (destruction).

CONCLUSION

Today several inspirations, revelations and winds of doctrines are flowing

from all sides. The only way to discern the voice of God and that of the devil

in this great confusion is to prove every voice or inspiration as the Holy Spirit

said in the message he sent to the bride and the prophet William Branham

stated it in his sermon EXPOSITION OF THE SEVEN CHURCH AGES- PERGAMEAN

CHURCH AGE- CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.5 quote 175-4 : “But what do we have

in this our day? Multitudes are working signs until we have a generation of

sign seekers that know little or nothing about the Word, or a true move of the

Spirit of God. If they see blood, oil and fire they are happy; it matters not what

is in the Word. They will support any sign, even unscriptural ones. But God has

warned us about that. He said in Matthew 24 that in the last days the two

spirits would be so close together that only the very elect could tell them

apart, for they alone would not be deceived. How can you tell the spirits

apart? Just give them the Word test. If they don't speak that Word, they are of

the evil one”.

So the ONLY WAY that the Holy Spirit taught to the bride how to make the

difference between spirits it is just by the test of the Word. And Berean’s

christian did the same. Acts Chapter 17.11 describes the Apostle Paul and

Silas and their brother expounded the Word and they received it with great

eagerness, without failing to examine the Scriptures daily to see if what these

ministers told them was true. These christians, despite the position and the

commission of Paul, they tested each one of his words by the Scriptures. Thus,

every believer MUST have the same attitude. For ONLY the Scriptures bear

witness of the Lord Jesus Christ.

For example also, in 1 Kings 22:13, Micaiah resisted Ahab and his 400 Hebrew

prophets who by mutual agreement declared this to Ahab : " Go up to

Ramoth-gilead, and prosper for the Lord shall deliver it into the king’s hand ’’.

But they fail to go and see Elijah who had the Word of the Lord, and cursed

Ahab and Jézabel.

God could not turn around and bless what He had previously cursed through

His prophet Elijah and Micaiah knew that! THAT IS THE REASON why God

confirmed Micah because he remained faithful to the word of the great

prophet Elijah. This shows that God still speaks in agreement with the Word

delivered by the prophets.

The Bible says that if someone does not speak according to the law and

the prophets, there is no light in him. The last prophet messenger William

Branham also encourages the Bride in LAODICEAN CHURCH AGE – CHURCH

AGE BOOK CPT.9 quote 365-1: “listen to the authenticated prophet of God

who appears in this last age. What he says from God, the bride will say. The

Spirit and the prophet and the bride will be saying the same thing. And what

they will say will have already been said in the Word.”

To conclude, the Lord’s omega Bride must remain steadfast, and :

take for absolute reference the message of the Holy Spirit for her and

be attached to it; the fullness of the infallible delivered by the last

messenger prophet William Branham, who fulfilling Malachi 4.5-6, Luke

17:30 and Revelation 10.7, brought his faith by the original and pure

teaching of the apostolic fathers and revealed the mysteries of the 7

thunders of Revelation 10 contained in the Seals.

Also clinging to the echo of the prophetic ministry, that of the Apostle

Joseph Coleman, who, fulfilled Revelation10.8-11 preached the

confirmed and revealed promises the 7 Seals/ 7 thunders message of

Malachi 4.5-6.

And believe that the Angel of Revelation10.1-7 and of Revelation10.8-

11 rises again in another Ephesians by the five-fold ministry, fulfilling

Ephesians 4.11-13 in order to edify her until she comes to the unity of the

faith, one Lord and to one baptism and shaping her to the perfect

image of Jesus Christ, to the perfect man perfect, to the measure of

the stature of the fullness of Christ for her complete redemption and

perfect rapture!

Thus, the true Bride continually gives thanks to God, because He has

chosen her from the beginning for salvation through sanctification of the Spirit

and through belief in the truth. And it is what He has called her for by the

glorious Gospel, so that she may possess the glory of the Lord Jesus Christ.

God bless you richly!
