It is only in the conflict of opposing ideas, freely expressed, without fear or government regulation, that truth can be found and genuine progress made. But as we approach the 'squeeze' we find Orwell's "doublethink" and "newspeak" have made "hate" "love," "lies" "truth," and "war' "peace." Moreover, Lucifer's antidiscrimination legislation has severely tightened the mind-screws of thought control against which "truth" continues to be inadmissible in defense. "Draw night to God and He will draw nigh to you. Cleanse your hands, you sinners; and purify your hearts, you double minded" (James 4:8).
Our defense is the strong tower of THUS SAITH THE LORD.
This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.
Sylvia Stolz' banned Speech
January 17, 2013 — Pontius Pilot used a precedent in Roman law two thousand years ago. When he found Israel's Messiah innocent he offered sentencing to the Jews who demanded "Crucify him"! Roman (or Case) Law follows the weight of opinion irrespective of the evidence presented (John 19:1-16).
Sylvia Stolz, lawyer for Ernst Zundel's "holocaust denial" trial delivered a public lecture after her release from three and a half years' imprisonment for the 'crime' of submitting evidence in behalf of her client. This lecture is one the best arguments against censorship and a scathing exposure of the corruption of the German courts by Zionist Jews and their sycophants who, like Canadian and Australian law courts and 'Human Rights' commissions, fail to recognize evidence and set their own rules against logic and reason.

Comment: Before being 'allowed' to watch this video, one must acknowledge the notice: "The following content has been identified by the YouTube community as being potentially offensive or inappropriate. Viewer discretion is advised." Yet we find there are 65 approvals and only 3 who disapproved, a ratio of 21 to 1. The people who comprise "the YouTube community" are bigots who do not like the opinions of others.
The essence of Sylvia's speech crystallizes the Catch-22 by which the holocaust myth is enforced by German courts and reinforced by illegitimate public relations put forth by the worldwide Jewish media apparatus. The so-called holocaust is not defined anywhere. German courts have ruled it was technically possible, which it was not—even with today's technology, "because it happened," and simply declared all evidence irrelevant, and made it illegal to further discuss any aspect.
Obama only wants Military Leaders who 'will fire on US Citizens'
January 21, 2013 — On Monday, renowned author and humanitarian Dr. Jim Garrow made a shocking claim about what we can expect to see in Obama's second term. . . "I have just been informed by a former senior military leader that Obama is using a new 'litmus test' in determining who will stay and who must go in his military leaders. . . The new litmus test of leadership in the military is if they will fire on US citizens or not" . . . Full story: examiner.com
Comment: Africa is now threatened by a President who four years ago touted the importance of his African roots. The stated objectives for his second term are: increased immigration (miscegenation which is genocide to Adam's race, Genesis 6:1-4; Matthew 24:37); acceptance of homosexuality (Genesis 18; Luke 17:28-30); and belief in the global warming/hole in the ozone layer/global cooling/anthropogenic carbon tax/climate change HOAX and SCAM floated by the Report from Iron Mountain but dating back to arch-conspirator H.G. Wells (1866 - 1946).
US-Condoned Propaganda promotes Extra-Judicial Killings of Brown Men
January 23, 2013 — The film Zero Dark Thirty has sparked debate on its justification of torture, its misuse of facts and its pro-CIA agenda. The main focus of the debate so far has been on whether torture was necessary to track Osama bin Laden [who was dead and buried for a decade before the US murdered an innocent man they falsely claimed as former CIA employee bin Laden] and whether the film is pro- or anti-torture.
This focus on torture, while important, has sidelined the larger and more significant message of this film: that extra judicial killing is good. The film teaches us that brown men can and should be targeted and killed with impunity, in violation of international law, and that we should trust the CIA to act with all due diligence.
Its main propaganda triumph, in my view, is that it sells targeted killing at a time when this has become the key strategy in the "war on terror," with little or no pushback. We are being trained to amuse ourselves to death and not ask critical questions of our government. . .
The film rests on the wholesale demonization of the Pakistani people, who are constantly referred to as "Paks" . . . a devious lot, the film has a scene where Maya's colleague and friend is ambushed and blown to bits by a suicide bomber. . . Full story: truth-out.org
Comment: Just gotta hasten the 'hot stage' of the present World War III between political Islam and political Zion. Moses Maimonides, the Jews' most esteemed sage, held men of colour in extremely low regard.
French Mali Invasion Spills into Algeria
Exactly as predicted, the ongoing French 'intervention' in the North African nation of Mali has spilled into Algeria—the next most likely objective of Western geopolitical interests in the region since the successful destabilization of Libya in 2011. . . "As far back as August of 2011, Bruce Riedel out of the corporate-financier funded think-tank, the Brookings Institution, wrote "Algeria will be next to fall," where he gleefully predicted success in Libya would embolden radical elements in Algeria, in particular AQIM. Between extremist violence and the prospect of French airstrikes, Riedel hoped to see the fall of the Algerian government. Ironically Riedel noted:
Algeria has expressed particular concern that the unrest in Libya could lead to the development of a major safe haven and sanctuary for al-Qaeda and other extremist jihadis.
And thanks to NATO, that is exactly what Libya has become—a Western sponsored sanctuary for Al-Qaeda. AQIM's headway in northern Mali and now French involvement will see the conflict inevitably spill over into Algeria. It should be noted that Riedel is a co-author of "Which Path to Persia?" which openly conspires to arm yet another US State Department-listed terrorist organization (list as #28), the Mujahedin-e Khalq (MEK) to wreak havoc across Iran and help collapse the government there—illustrating a pattern of using clearly terroristic organizations, even those listed as so by the US State Department, to carry out US foreign policy."
Now, it is reported that "Al Qaeda-linked" terrorists have seized [and killed] American hostages in Algeria in what is being described by the Western press as "spill over" from France's Mali operations. . . Al Qaeda is allowing the US and France to intervene and interfere in Algeria after attempts in 2011 to trigger political subversion was soundly defeated by the Algerian government. Al Qaeda is essentially both a casus belli and mercenary force, deployed by the West against targeted nations. It is clear that French operations seek to trigger armed conflict in Algeria as well as a possible Western military intervention there as well, with the Mali conflict serving only as a pretense.

[T]he Islamic jihad in Afghanistan was a CIA initiative, initially launched in 1979 during the Carter administration. It was actively supported by president Ronald Reagan throughout the 1980s. In 1979 the largest covert operation in the history of the CIA was launched in Afghanistan. Wahabi missionaries from Saudi Arabia set up the Coranic schools (madrassahs) in Pakistan and Afghanistan. The Islamic textbooks used in the madrassahs were printed and published in Nebraska. Covert funding was channeled to the Mujahideen with the support of the CIA:
"With the active encouragement of the CIA and Pakistan's ISI, who wanted to turn the Afghan Jihad into a global war waged by all Muslim states against the Soviet Union, some 35,000 Muslim radicals from 40 Islamic countries joined Afghanistan's fight between 1982 and 1992. Tens of thousands more came to study in Pakistani madrassahs. Eventually, more than 100,000 foreign Muslim radicals were directly influenced by the Afghan jihad" (Ahmed Rashid, "The Taliban: Exporting Extremism", Foreign Affairs, November-December 1999).
The Central Intelligence Agency (CIA), using Pakistan's military Inter-Services Intelligence (ISI), played a key role in training the Mujahideen. In turn, the CIA-sponsored guerrilla training was integrated with the teachings of Islam . . . The militarization of the African continent is part of the mandate of US Africom.
The longer term goal is to exert geopolitical as well military control over a vast area, which historically has been within France's sphere of influence. This area is rich in oil, natural gas, gold, uranium and strategic minerals. (R. Teichman, The War on Mali. What you Should Know: An Eldorado of Uranium, Gold, Petroleum, Strategic Minerals, Global Research, January 15, 2013). Full story: globalresearch.ca
Disease Rates of Vaccinated vs Unvaccinated Children
January 18, 2013 — We can now reach a conclusion in the issue of vaccinated vs unvaccinated children. A German study involving several thousands of children, including newborns up to those 19 years of age, has found that vaccinated children have up 5 times the rate of diseases and disorders compared to the same age group who has not been vaccinated. This study confirms the results of earlier independent study surveys that produced similar conclusions in the vaccinated vs unvaccinated issue.
The study, which is still ongoing, was initiated by homeopath Andre Bachmair, and focuses on resolving the controversy surrounding the issue of vaccinated vs unvaccinated children, a controversy that has gone on for years. It has an American component that can be found on the Vaccine Injury Information website sourced below. There is a link on that website for parents of vaccinated children to participate in the study. So far this survey has well over 11,000 respondents; mostly from the US. Other studies have surveyed smaller groups of families.
The results of all the studies are amazingly similar. However, as we have come to expect, none of these studies were picked up by the mainstream media. And equally amazingly, none were funded by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) or the World Health Organization (WHO) or any national or international health agency or medical profession that you would expect to conduct such a study, given their mandates to ensure public health.

The Long Term Effects of Genetically Modified Food on Humans
January 22, 2013 — An editorial in the respected American scientific monthly magazine, Scientific American, August 2009 reveals the shocking and alarming reality behind the proliferation of GMO products throughout the food chain of the planet since 1994. There are no independent scientific studies published in any reputed scientific journal in the world for one simple reason. It is impossible to independently verify that GMO crops such as Monsanto Roundup Ready Soybeans or MON8110 GMO maize perform as the company claims, or that, as the company also claims, that they have no harmful side effects because the GMO companies forbid such tests!
That's right. As a precondition to buy seeds, either to plant for crops or to use in research study, Monsanto and the gene giant companies require one to first sign an End User Agreement with the company. For the past decade, the period when the greatest proliferation of GMO seeds in agriculture has taken place, Monsanto, Pioneer (DuPont) and Syngenta require anyone buying their GMO seeds to sign an agreement that explicitly forbids that the seeds be used for any independent research. Scientists are prohibited from testing a seed to explore under what conditions it flourishes or even fails. They cannot compare any characteristics of the GMO seed with any other GMO or non-GMO seeds from another company. Most alarming, they are prohibited from examining whether the genetically modified crops lead to unintended side-effects either in the environment or in animals or humans.

Comment: World Depopulation and Slavery.
Investigation of Liverpool Care Pathway Launched
December 2, 2012 — A British physician has recounted in an article in the British Medical Journal entitled "How It Feels To Withdraw Feeding from Newborn Babies," that National Health Service (NHS) hospitals in Great Britain are sending sick or severely disabled neonates to their homes or to hospices to die of starvation or dehydration.
Newborns are being placed on the Liverpool Care Pathway for end-of-life care, a system originally allotted and designed for elderly or terminally ill adults. That end-of-life care involves the removal of food and hydration tubes, a method which can take an average of ten days to result in death.
"I know, as they cannot, the unique horror of witnessing a child become smaller and shrunken, as the only route out of a life that has become excruciating to the patient or to the parents who love their baby," the doctor writes. "I reflect on how sanitized this experience seems within the literature about making this decision:"
The doctor dispelled the notion that the children die without suffering. "Survival is often much longer than most physicians think. Parents and care teams are unprepared for the sometimes severe changes that they will witness in the child's physical appearance as severe dehydration ensues.
The Daily Mail reports that not only newborns and infants, but also children are being placed on the Liverpool Care Pathway. "The Liverpool Care Pathway (LCP) for children has been developed in the Northwest, where the LCP itself was pioneered in the 1990s. It involves the discharge to home or to a hospice of children who are given a document detailing their end-of-life care. . ." One seen by the Mail . . . includes check boxes, filled out by hospital doctors, on medicines, nutrients and fluids to be stopped . . . devised by the Marie Curie Palliative Care Institute for dying adult patients more than a decade ago. It has since been developed, with pediatric staff at Alder Hey Hospital, to cover children.
Parents have to agree to their child going on the death pathway, often being told by doctors it is in the child's best interest because his or her survival is futile. The other consideration thought to be driving such recommendations is
the desire to save money. . . Full story: larouchepac.com
Comment: II Timothy 3:1-5. Canadian lawyer of the Canadian Free Speech League is investigating whether the LCP is operating in Canada; "One of our old friends, Reg Dawe, was in hospital. In the presence of other friends he was asked if he wanted to live and wanted to receive food and water. He indicated to them that he did, but those friends were told they were not allowed to give him either and that he was not entitled to receive the same".
Upon Earth Distress of Nations with Perplexity
January 23, 2013 — Hawaii is a collection of volcanic islands located over a geological 'hot spot' in the Central Pacific. There are eight major islands; six are open to tourism. . . There are currently three active volcanoes in Hawaii. Maunaloa last erupted in 1984 and Kilauea has been erupting continuously since 1983. Loihi, located underwater off the southern coast of Hawaii has been erupting since 1996.
When Israel's Seventh Trumpet sounds at the close of the Gentile dispensation Los Angeles together with a 1,500 x 300 – 400 mile section of earth's crust will sink beneath the Pacific. Tidal waves will sweep the oceans. The New Madrid fault will open "and waves will shoot plumb out to the state of Kentucky. And when it does, it'll shake the world so hard that everything on top of it will shake down" (A Thinking Man's Filter, p. 25:144). The Pacific Ring of Fire will erupt "and every mountain and island will be moved out of their places." Florida will sink and the Mount of Olives will cleave in twain, demolishing the Dome of the Rock and igniting the 'hot stage' of the present World War III (Isaiah 54:10; Ezekiel 38:20; Zechariah 14:4-5; Luke 21:25-26; Revelation 6:14; 16:20).
Cut to the Chase
John 15:16-17, "You have not chosen me, but I have chosen you, and ordained you, that you should go and bring forth fruit, and that your fruit should remain: that whatsoever you shall ask of the Father in My Name, He may give it you. These things I command you, that you love one another". Pass it on . . . please send this article to someone you know
This is the hour of the 'third pull' and one of our last opportunities to ensure our vessels with our lamps are full of the Oil of the Holy Spirit. It is too late in the day to 'play church.' I will rehearse some of the things we believe to discover where each of us is standing; please test everything I say with the Scriptures; take notes and prove all things in the Absolute of God's unchanging Word; if you have any questions ask the Lord to reveal them through the pulpit, and should you find any mistakes please let me know. By His grace God will dissolve all doubts.
Time is passing ever so quickly, and as Paul said, "Today if you would hear His voice" act while it is still today.
Now let's "cut to the chase" which means to "focus on what is important," "get to the point," "don't beat about the bush" but "speak directly and say what you mean".
This is the jubilee year of the Message.
In 1963 the day of Pentecost fell upon June 6; Pope John XXIII had died three days beforehand, and like 106 Judas popes before him, he never went to Pentecost. In 2013, Nisan 14 will fall upon March 29, and the fiftieth Day of Pentecost will fall on May 19 as determined by the sighting of the new moon in Jerusalem. Whenever our Pentecostal Jubilee takes place we will be prepared by the grace of God, "dressed in the righteousnesses of saints [which are] the true sayings of God"—THUS SAITH THE LORD of Brother Branham's Message.
Churches and brethren throughout the world speak about "the Message" and I am trying to serve you in some small way because, as we sing, "All things are ready, come to the Feast—Come for the table now is spread," now is the time for the "dry bones" of Ezekiel 37 to come together. Although the "dry bones" over which Ezekiel was prophesying were the twelve tribes of Israel there are some very "dry bones" in the circle of this Message. Most believe the Israelites have returned to the land of the Covenant since 1948, but this is not what the prophets of God's Bible teach (Hosea 6:1-3; Psalm 17:7; Isaiah 6:10-13; 11:11-16; 13:14; 27:12-13; 49:17; 65:9-10; Jeremiah 3:12, 18; 16:15; 23:3, 8; 31:8; Ezekiel 28:24-31; 36:24; 37:14, 21-22; 39:27-28; Micah 5:3; Zechariah 10:9-12; Matthew 24:29-31).
What is the Message?
To most believers it is that "God sent a Prophet," and the "Spoken Word" Books and audio CDs of his sermons. But that is NOT the Message, the Message is Christ (Matthew 25:6; Matthew 25:6; I Corinthians 13:10; Revelation 10:1-4).
I Thessalonians 4:14-16, "If we believe that Jesus died and rose again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God bring with Him. For this we say unto you by the Word of the Lord, that we who are alive and remain to the [parousia] Coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep. For the Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a Shout, with the Voice of the Archangel, and with the Trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first." So Jude 14 and Revelation 10:1-11 concur.
The most appropriate way to present the Message is NOT to portray a picture by reciting quote upon quote. The Messages of previous Ages were not delivered by repeating the words of their messengers but by taking them back to the Absolute of God's written Word from Genesis to Revelation to explain what the messenger meant. The Spoken Word of the Message is not the key to unlock the meaning of the Message, but the key to unlock the meaning of the written Word. Like those noble Bereans we are to take the minister's sermon back to the Scripture from Genesis to Revelation to understand what it means (Acts 17:11).
Grace for translation faith will not come by trusting your pastor, or William Branham or Jesus Christ and what these men have said, but by a clear understanding of what they meant proven against the written Word from Genesis to Revelation.
Jesus gave Peter "the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven" or new birth, "For the kingdom of God is within you" (Luke 17:21), and he turned the key of faith on the day of Pentecost to open the Kingdom to the Israelites (Acts 2). In Acts 8 He turned the key of faith to open the Kingdom of heaven to the Samaritans, and in Acts 10 He unlocked the Kingdom to us Gentiles by the key of faith.
A key is the authority and power to open and shut. Matthew 16:19, "And I will give unto you the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever you shall bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever you shall loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven."
In addition to "the keys of the Kingdom of Heaven" for new birth we now have "the keys of hell and of death" (Revelation 1:18) for the body change and translation.
It is Ephesians 1:5, 9-14, "Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to Himself, according to the good pleasure of His will . . . Having made known to us the mystery of His will, according to His good pleasure which He has purposed in Himself: that in the dispensation of the fullness of times He might gather together in one all things in Christ, both which are in heaven ["those who sleep"], and which are on earth ["who are alive and remain"]; even in Him: in whom also we have obtained an inheritance, being predestinated according to the purpose of Him who works all things after the counsel of His own will: that we should be to the praise of His glory, who first trusted in Christ. In whom you also trusted, after you heard the Word of truth, the Gospel of your salvation: in whom after you believed, you were sealed with that Holy Spirit of promise, which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession, [our glorification and full adoption] to the praise of His glory".
"The earnest of our inheritance" is the baptism with the Holy Ghost by "the Keys of the Kingdom of Heaven".
In Ephesians 1:17-20 Paul prayed, "That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him: the eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that you may know what is the hope of His calling, and what the riches of the glory of His inheritance in the saints, and what is the exceeding greatness of His power toward us who believe, according to the working of His mighty power, which He wrought in Christ, when He raised Him from the dead, and set Him at His own right hand in the heavenly places".
The faith of this Message is "The spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him,"—"mighty resurrection power" that will turn "the keys of hell and of death".
Applying Hebrews 11:39-40 to the New Testament as to the Old, "All of these [sleeping PART-Word saints] having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise [resurrection and glorification]: God having provided some better thing for us [glorification without death], that they without us should not be made perfect [or resurrected and glorified]".
As far as the saints are concerned, in Revelation 1:18 "hell" or Hades is the grave whence the bodies of the sleeping saints will rise when the sleeping saints in theophany in the sixth dimension put on glorified flesh, while "death" is what we escape by the grace of God and this Message when we meet our theophany and change in the atoms (I Thessalonians 4:16-17).
In John 14:19-20 Jesus spoke of quickening power in those who are born-again. "Yet a little while, and the world will see Me no more; but you see Me: because I live, you shall live also. At that day [when you are born-again] you will know that I am in My Father and you in Me, and I in you".
When the Body of Christ is complete, Brother Branham said "At that day you'll know it, for its—the whole thing is one plan of redemption coming down, that God coming back to live in, and dwell with, and commune to His people as He did at the beginning. Now then, as soon as He gets His church in speaking conditions, gets His church to a place that He can flow Himself through, and love, and persuade, and fellowship, then there'll come a Eden. He'll take His church back to where it left Him at back to an Eden again, there where it fell. Now that's where it made its first start of fall; there's where it'll be taken right back with every clean slate of redemption, bringing them straight back to that place again" (What the Holy Ghost was given For, p. 42:32).
That will fulfill God's threefold purpose explained in "Christ is the Mystery of God Revealed".
The Holy Ghost is given for redemption and we are approaching the climax when we will be "in speaking conditions": under preeminence whereby the Lord has the oversight and leading so that His quickening power can flow through us as mature Christians to exercise the third pull in the manifestation of the Sons of God. This will call the Seventh Trump and start the resurrection of the sleeping saints from "hell" which is the grave, and by the 'third pull' His quickening Spirit will elevate our faith for translation grace.
Are you waiting for the second Coming of Christ? The revelation of the Seven Seals in 1963 brought Christ back to earth in W_O_R_D form according to Brother Branham's commission on the Ohio River in 1933 witnessed before 5,000, when the Pillar of Fire appeared above him in the form of a Star, and a Voice from heaven said, "As John the Baptist foreran My first Coming, your Message will forerun My second Coming".
Either Brother Branham fulfilled his Commission, or he was a false prophet. He will not have a "return ministry" as some foolishly claim, "For it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the judgment" (Hebrews 9:27).
Decades ago some misguided souls engaged a pilot to fly an ancient Douglas passenger plane around the world to pick up the elect in the rapture. The pilot is long deceased and his old plane has probably turned into dust; a good thing, because it would not have seated a fraction of those reading this Newsletter. I expect ministers would board first, women and children last! The rapture would be over before it reached the Sky Lounge at the Pearly Gates. God have mercy.
Others purchased a huge circus marquee and a semi-trailer to transport it to the White House lawn where a resurrected Brother Branham would supposedly preach the unwritten Seventh Seal, which was the revelation of the written Six Seals he revealed in 1963. I suspect mildew, moths and rust have devoured them both along with this crazy doctrine, and just as well because nowadays Jews and Muslims appear to have a monopoly on the White House lawn.
Other strange doctrines have arisen because ministers and brethren teach by following the letter of the Message without taking it back to the Scripture.
These are anointed ones in the end time (Mathew 24:24) whose doctrinal cults include Two Souls from the Jews' Babylonian Talmud; a deity doctrine that supposes Brother Branham was actually Jesus Christ; the proposition that God has sent an eighth and even a ninth messenger in addition to the seven prophesied in the Holy Bible; the prospect that we are living in the Eighth Day (having bypassed the millennium); Polygamy; and a rather imaginative yet false "seven thunders" doctrine that has built an empire of false churches under a nicolaitane priesthood.
Are you looking for the second Coming of the Man Jesus any time soon? If you read Matthew 24:23-28 you will discover Jesus stated emphatically that we should NOT look for the glorified Man from Galilee as do the denominations, for His precious feet will not touch this earth until He returns with the saints of ALL ages to step out on the atomic ashes of the wicked for a thousand years of peace (Isaiah 13:9; Daniel 2:34-35; Malachi 4:1-3; Matthew 3:12; II Thessalonians 1:8-9). Zechariah 14:4 is a prophecy of the sign of Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming to Israel in the prophetic office Son of man, not His physical or 'erchomai' return. It will not be the Man from Galilee but the Pillar of Cloud like our sign of His second or 'parousia' Coming that appeared on February 28, 1963 as prophesied in Daniel 7:9, Acts 1:9-11 and Revelation 1:7, published in Life Magazine and many scientific journals. The glorified Jesus Messiah will return in the office Son of David to reign over the restored kingdom of Israel for a thousand years of peace.
It is a revelation as Jesus informed Nicodemus, "Unless a man is born-again he cannot understand the kingdom of heaven" (John 3:3). Brother Branham said, "The importance of revelation by the Spirit to a true believer can never be over emphasized. Revelation means more to you than perhaps you realize . . . Matthew 16:13-18 (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 13:4).
While Jesus was on earth, He was a Man. After the day of Pentecost Peter said, "This is that . . ." and based upon Joel 2:28-32, Psalms 16:8-11 and 110:1 which he quoted, he said: "Let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God has made this Jesus, whom you have crucified, both Lord and Christ" (Acts 2:36): Master and Messiah.
In I Corinthians 15:45 Paul compared the natural with the Spiritual when he said, "The first man Adam became a living soul [in consequence of God breathing into him "the breath of lives"]; the last Adam, a quickening spirit." The first Adam reproduced flesh by flesh; the last Adam quickens souls by His Spirit (John 1:12-13; 5:26).
Had the first couple maintained obedience and continued in fellowship with God partaking His Divine Spirit, the higher Life would have glorified the lower making it partaker of eternal Life without intervention of death. But we became governed by breath and earthy food that sustains the sensuous nature of our mortal flesh and spirit rather than the Spiritual affinity of our soul. Herein lay the need for a Kinsman Redeemer and quickening Spirit.
Despite Christ's Supernatural conception it was not His natural birth but His Supernatural resurrection by which this same Jesus "was made a quickening Spirit," for until that point He was in a corruptible body in the form of sinful flesh. Yet He overcame and maintained His mortal spirit sinless through the trials of His natural life in a world of sin that He might pay sin's wages and qualify as Kinsman Redeemer for the first Adam and his fallen race in its susceptibility to sin and death. Through death He became the firstfruit and Head of a humanity spiritually and divinely glorified by virtue of His having glorified human nature through the power of the Spirit and in the maintenance of a perfect obedience, overcome sin.
The point of transition from the natural to the Spiritual Man and quickening Spirit was Jesus' resurrection (I Corinthians 15:45). By the might of that love which led Him to incur judgment and lay down His Life for the deliverance of the lost He became henceforth in his newly quickened and glorified corporeality the divine organ for quickening the dead (Romans 8:11). Until this Capstone Age all of His offspring with two exceptions have followed the type of the first Adam and founder of our race in death, by the grace of God we follow the last Adam from whom issues the final development of humanity that leads to perfection (Matthew 5:48; Ephesians 4:13).
Now Christ is a quickening Spirit anointed to empower His true followers with "the ministry of reconciliation" (II Corinthians 5:18) to do and teach the same things as He did here on earth. Brother Branham said, "If [Christ the Branch] ever puts forth another original vine, you'll write another Book of Acts behind it" (Greater than Solomon is Here, p. 30:234; John 15:1-7). The Branch has put forth another vine in the Capstone Bride. She has the mind of God to know what He wants us to do with His Word. We perform the command of the Word in His Name for we have THUS SAITH THE LORD. Then the quickening Spirit waters His Word and it comes to pass in its designated season and time. That season is upon us but the manifestation of the Sons of God will not be a public show. It will be to raise Christ's end-time Bride to faith for translation grace.
Do you know that all Seven Churches are over? The Gentile dispensation was typed by the Pentecostal feast of Leviticus 23:15-21 which commenced on resurrection Sunday Nisan 16. The primitive Church of Pentecost represented the remaining six days of Israel's feast of Unleavened Bread wherein the early saints held and understood the Word of God pure and undefiled by Jewish fables and Gentile reasoning. It was Christ, "the true bread from heaven who came down from heaven and gives life to the world" (John 6:32-33; I Corinthians 3:11-13). The following seven sabbaths typed seven distinct baptisms with the Holy Spirit by seven measures of PART-Word. They formed seven Church Ages while the Bible was sealed with Seven Seals and Christ was a Mediator for ignorance of the fullness of the Word (Revelation 2-3).
Do you understand that Christ is no longer a Mediator? The Church went up in Revelation 4 when the last saint predestinated to the PART-Word Body of Laodicea was sealed to the day of his physical redemption and will not return until after the great tribulation where God deals with 144,000 elect Israelites. Then it comes back with King Jesus in Revelation 19. The seven Church Ages ended on March 8, 1963 when Christ opened the Seven Seals which revealed its past history and what will be in the Bride or Capstone Age after the Church Ages (Revelation 4:1-2; 6:1; 10:1-4).
Brother Branham said, "And Jesus, His Name on earth was Redeemer, Jesus. When He was on earth, He was the Redeemer; that's true. But when He conquered death and hell, and overcome them, and ascended on high, He received a new Name. That's the reason they holler the way they do and don't get nothing; it'll be revealed in the thunders. See?"
"Notice, the mystery. He's coming, riding. . . There's got to be something to change this Church, you know that. There's got to be something. Notice! No man knowed but Himself. Now, notice, no man knowed but hisself."
"And He was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and His Name was called The Word of God. [Oh, notice]? And the armies which were in heaven followed Him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean. And out of His mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it He should smite the nations: and He shall rule them with a rod of iron: and He tread the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God. And He had on His vesture and on His thigh a Name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS".
"There comes the Messiah. There He is, not this fellow on this horse back here. Watch the different. Here He stands with the Book in His hand here" (The Revelation of the Seven Seals, p. 158:3 – 159:1).
The mystery of the unwritten Seventh Seal is what the voices of the Seven Thunders uttered, which was the revelation of the written Six Seals. This is the "something" that will "change this Church" and barely anyone in the circle of this Message has a hint of this essential revelation.
Do you realize that redemption is over? "It is finished" (John 19:30)! Redemption ended with the Laodicean Church Age and Christ's mediation for ignorance of the fullness of the Word at which point Revelation 4, 5, and 10:1-4 came to pass. Christ's end-time Bride and 144,000 elect Israelites were fully redeemed in Christ on Calvary since all are predestinated to be born-again by receiving the fullness of the Word under the revelation of the Seventh Seal or Seventh Trumpet and have no need of mediation. When the last saint predestinated to Christ's end-time Bride recognizes her day and its Message the Gentile dispensation will end.
Christ's end-time Bride is now fulfilling the antitype of the holy convocation of the fiftieth day of Israel's Pentecostal feast, "Prophesying again before many peoples, and nations, and tongues, and kings" saying what the tapes say—NOT reciting the 'rhema' or letter of a dead prophet but sharing the 'logos' or revelation of his Message (Revelation 10:8-11).
The Law was fulfilled "Life for life" in Christ's "obedience unto death, even the death of the cross" whereby He paid in full the wages of your sin (Romans 6:23). His work as our Kinsman Redeemer was completed in full when He claimed the Book of Life in Revelation 5, which was the title deed to all Adam had forfeited.
II Corinthians 5:13-15, "Whether we are beside ourselves, it for God: if we are in our right mind, it is for you. For the love of Christ lays hold of us and brings us to this conclusion, that if One died for all, then all have died: and He died for all so that those who live might no longer live for themselves but for Him who died and rose for them".
Romans 6:5, "If we have been united with Him in a death like His, we shall certainly be united with Him in a resurrection like His." Because Christ is the Logos manifest in virgin-born flesh and the saints are Attributes of the Logos we are accounted crucified in Him on Calvary; thus we have already paid the penalty of sin in Him on Calvary and were raised in Him the third day. We are not "forgiven," we are "just" as though we never did those things in the first place as He was raised for our justification (Romans 4:25; Isaiah 1:18). There is no "double jeopardy" (Hebrews 9:27); we are free and without condemnation before the throne of God (Romans 8:1; Revelation 7:15).
The Church Age saints (Isaiah 28:8-13; Revelation 1:1 to 3, 4:1-2) with only PART-Word were in error and required mediation to enter His Presence even via the grave, "And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise: God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect [or glorified]" (Hebrews 11:39-40). Christ's end-time Bride was fully redeemed IN Him on Calvary and will be changed in the atoms and glorified without death.
We must cut to the chase, God is not mocked and His elect are not deceived. Stop deceiving the innocence of hard-working defenseless aged men and women by using the ministry as a cloak for begging. God is building character in those who take "the strait gate and narrow way," which, as He told Brother Branham, is "My way." Paul commanded, "turn away from such traitors, heady high-minded lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God having a form of godliness but denying the power of personal faith and prayer: of this sort are they which creep into houses, and lead captive silly women laden with sins, led away with divers lusts, ever learning, and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so do these also resist the truth: men of corrupt minds reprobate concerning the faith. But they shall proceed no further: for their folly shall be manifest unto all men, as theirs also was" (II Timothy 3:3-9).
Jews
Brother Branham spoke in the colloquial. There was no such word as "JEW" in any Bible in any language until the latter part of the eighteenth century. The meaning of this modern word contradicts the two words it has replaced. The Encyclopaedia Britannica and every Jewish encyclopedia confirms that Jews are generally non-Semitic imposters and impersonators of the children of Israel.
When asked the question, "Who is Israel? — Who is a Jew?" the Israeli Government's Ministry of Foreign Affairs (MFA) answered thus: "The term Israelite is purely Biblical. An Israeli is a citizen of Israel, regardless of religion. A Jew is a person anywhere in the world born to a Jewish mother, or converted to Judaism, who is thus identified as a member of the Jewish people and religion." Notice here that the Jews themselves clearly imply that the term "Israelite" and "Jew" are separate and distinct and Jews have no relation whatsoever with the Biblical bloodline. In fact, under the heading "A Brief History of the Terms for Jew" on page three of the 1980 Jewish Almanac we find the following incredible admission: "Strictly speaking it is incorrect to call an Ancient Israelite a 'Jew' or to call a contemporary Jew an Israelite or a Hebrew."
Judaism is Pharisaism—the antithesis of Yahweh Torah/Yahwism.
Today, to trace anyone's descent to ancient Palestine would be a genealogical impossibility. The Jewish racial myth flows from the fact that the words 'Hebrew,' 'Israelite,' 'Jew,' 'Judaism,' and the 'Jewish people' have been used synonymously to suggest a historic continuity, but this is a gross misuse. The descriptive name Judaism was never heard by the Hebrews or Israelites; it appears only within modern Christianity. The English abbreviation, 'Jew,' is recent and does not correspond to anything denoted by the Aramaic, Greek or Roman terms for 'Judahite' or 'Judean,' which were in use during the lifetime of Jesus. In fact, according to Reporting Guidelines for the Australian Press Council, General Press Release No. 49 (June 1982) with reference to the word "Race" as applied to Jews: "The Press Council wishes to alert editors to a common mistake. There is no "Jewish race." Judaism is not a race but a religion. There are Caucasian Jews, Mongolian Jews, Oriental Jews, Semitic Jews and so on—terms defining both racial origin and religion. The Council asks all editors and sub-editors to watch for this error . . ."
During Christ's lifetime, no persons were described as "Jews" anywhere. This very important FACT is supported by sound theology, suppressed historical truth and science. When Jesus was in Judea, it was not the "homeland" of the ancestors of those who today style themselves as "Jews." Their ancestors never set foot anywhere near Judea. They existed at that time in Asia, their true "homeland", and were known as Chazars, or Turkish Mongols. Banned author Douglas Reed, in The Controversy of Zion, wrote: "No authority, Judaist or other, would support the claim to blood decent from Judah for the so-called Jews of today. In fact, the Palestinians would have more claim to the racial description 'Semite' than any within modern Jewry who are of Eastern-European stock and trace their lineage back to the ancient Asiatic kingdom of the Chazar".
"Here is a paradox, a paradox, a most ingenious paradox and anthropological fact; many Christians may have much more Hebrew-Israelite blood in their veins than most of their Jewish neighbors" (Alfred M. Lilienthal, What Price Israel).
The "squeeze" is coming to cause you to compromise the faith. Thought control laws which forbid racial, political, religious, gender, disability and other forms of discrimination while condoning homosexuality and prostitution and imposing inassimilable races, colours, religions and cultures have been designed to divide and conquer so-called Christian nations and people. By curbing freedom of thought and expression with severe penalties for believers and moral people in general they are crafted to entice men to take the easy path and let down the bars of principle and faith by reasoning to avoid the approbation of a depraved society. Satan's prototype was Weimar Germany. Such intolerable conditions have increasingly been imposed by the United Nations on Christian nations and peoples since World War II and with a vengeance since the end of the Church Ages and Christ's mediation for ignorance. Independence was prematurely forced upon the colonies, surrendering them to corrupt dictators, and the rape of their resources and wealth by the international banksters, the rise of communism and impoverishment of the former Imperial powers.
God's Message for this hour is the 'third pull'.
We must cut to the chase, focus upon the Word for this hour and make ourselves ready for the squeeze, the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation by sanctifying and separating ourselves from the world and the things of world so we can see that Word living through us. nl768.htm
