Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ; we are pleased you have joined us in fellowship around God's unchanging Word. Your brother-in-Christ
Of course it was inevitable that some zealous parents got it wrong and some children were excessively or unjustly punished. So parental failure created some rebellious children and some of these grew into zealous adults happy to turn against what they did not understand and did not want to understand. But our mistakes are something from which we should learn. We should turn our stumbling blocks into stepping stones.
So those hungry for power who scheme to own the world found they did not need to plan to fight a physical war or endanger their own families. They need only seduce by lies and deceit. They used pride to deceive sacrifice, and by progressive seduction parents will do their best to deliver their children back to the Stone Age and confine them to cultural enslavement, misery and short lifetime in the name of "letting them develop their own personalities." They deny their children the maturity and experience to understand their most beneficial choices. They sacrifice their children to maintain their pride in lies rather than sacrifice lies to maintain their pride in truth.
Around a century ago, in the more advanced nations, many parents would not have fallen for this trick because they lived by a basically Christian philosophy that included responsible values and responsibility for the values their children inherit. So by promoting evil as love, ignorance as self-development and truth as a matter of social choice, our world is delivered into sickness and darkness. We then fear to face the Light of truth because it exposes what we have allowed to happen.
Slavish following of peer groups, political parties, sports and various fashions of primitive behavior is not an indication of independent thinking but true evidence of intellectual enslavement. However if we face the truth and act to reclaim it, the fault can be repaired and the lost can be redeemed.
There is an Absolute by which we must live. Such obedience requires personal revelation from Above and independent thinking and living because the world is at enmity with the revealed Word. Whether married or single with or without the companionship of family and friends ours must be an individual walk in the revealed Word to whom we owe our all and who is our destiny.
Our main article concerns "Your Mansion in that City of Gold." One must grow unto the measure of the full stature of the perfect Man dressed in the wedding garment of Brother Branham's THUS SAITH THE LORD before he or she can enter that new and eternal dwelling place Jesus went away to prepare for you. The current news also bears careful study as it enables us to gauge the lateness of the hour be reporting the fulfillment of prophecy in the state of the world system in its reproach to the Word of the hour.
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.

Israel acknowledges Jews are Khazars; Reverse Migration to Ukraine?
March 16, 2014 — Only yesterday came news that Syrian rebels plan to give Israel the Golan Heights in exchange for creation of a no-fly zone against the Assad regime. In an even bolder move, it is now revealed, Israel will withdraw its settlers from communities beyond the settlement blocs—and relocate them at least temporarily to Ukraine. Ukraine made this arrangement on the basis of historic ties and in exchange for desperately needed military assistance against Russia. This surprising turn of events had an even more surprising origin: genetics . . .
It is well known that, sometime in the eighth to ninth centuries, the Khazars, a warlike Turkic people, converted to Judaism and ruled over a vast domain in what became southern Russia and Ukraine . . . Hungarian ex-communist and scientist Arthur Koestler brought the Khazar hypothesis to a wider audience with The Thirteenth Tribe (1976) . . . Most recently, left-wing Israeli historian Shlomo Sand's The Invention of the Jewish People . . . arguing that because Jews were a religious community descended from converts they do not constitute a nation or need a state of their own . . . In 2012, Israeli researcher Eran Elhaik published a study claiming to prove that Khazar ancestry is the single largest element in the Ashkenazi gene pool . . . Haaretz and The Forward trumpeted the results.
. . . A blue-ribbon team of scholars from leading research institutions and museums has just issued a secret report to the government, acknowledging that European Jews are in fact Khazars . . . All Jews who wish to return would be welcomed back without condition as citizens, the more so if they take part in the promised infusion of massive Israeli military assistance, including troops, equipment, and construction of new bases. If the initial transfer works, other West Bank settlers would be encouraged to relocate to Ukraine, as well. After Ukraine, bolstered by this support, reestablishes control over all its territory, the current Autonomous Republic of Crimea would once again become an autonomous Jewish domain. The small-scale successor to the medieval empire of Khazaria (as the peninsula, too, was once known) would be called, in Yiddish, Chazerai. Full story: timesofisrael.com
Comment: Most of this article is "padding," Koestler's book is supported by hundreds of earlier historians, every Jewish Encyclopaedia, the State of Israel, and by Dr. Eran Elhaik's research. Interestingly the full story reveals near-term realities prophesied by Ezekiel and Zechariah following the invasion, defeat and rape of the modern non-Semitic Israel state (Daniel 9:27; Joel 2:17; Malachi 1:3-4; Luke 21:24), the return of the twelve tribes of Israel, and an exodus of non-Semitic, anti-Semitic self-styled Jews. Under another name and in a different occupation, these impostors will shun defeated, devastated USA and return to Khazaria, the Ukraine, Georgia and Southern Russia as Gog, the chief ruler of Magog (Zechariah 14:2; Ezekiel 38 – 39). The Lord said, "Watch Russia, the king of the north" (William Branham, The Laodicean Church Age, p. 501:44).
Towards a New Iran-Iraq War?
June 21, 2014 — What diplomatic overtures to Tehran suggest is that Washington is attempting to incite Iran to actively intervene militarily in Iraq, in a sectarian "civil war" which has been triggered by the US.
Whatever information or exchange of intelligence occurs between the US and Iran will in any event be subject to manipulation and deception. Washington's hidden agenda is to incite Iran's military involvement as well as control it, with a view to ultimately weakening the Islamic Republic of Iran as a regional power.
Yet it would appear that Tehran is not swallowing the bait. And on the Iranian side, there is no confirmation of a collaborative agreement . . .
The Pentagon scenario is not military escalation directed against Al Qaeda. It is escalation directed against the Iraqi population and the Iraq resistance movement.
Known and documented, ISIS is a creation of US intelligence. It is supported by the CIA, financed by Saudi Arabia and Qatar in liaison with Washington. Needless to say, US support to Al Qaeda formations in Syria and Iraq is known to the Iranian government.
Washington's has no intention of targeting the ISIS terrorists. Quite the opposite: its objective is to ensure the protection of the ISIS rebel army, which is supported covertly by Washington. In this context, Tehran has responded by pointing its fingers at Qatar and Saudi Arabia which are funding the ISIS terror brigades.
At present, ISIS terrorist operatives in Syria are fighting the forces of the government of Bashar al-Assad in liaison with their US intelligence sponsors. In turn, Iranian Special Forces including the Islamic Revolutionary Guard Corps-Qods Force are in Syria in the context of Tehran's military cooperation agreement with the Damascus government.
The US is "a state sponsor of terrorism." Beneath the fake intelligence, the media lies, contradictions and outright fabrications, the truth of the matter is as follows . . . Full story: globalresearch.ca
Comment: The United States is the image to the beast of Imperial Rome and apostate Protestantism is the image to the beast of Papal Rome. Reporting on the recent abduction of three Israeli teenagers, correspondent Barry Chamish reminds us that al Qaeda and ISIS/ISIL are well-documented US/CIA 'fronts' working with Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Jordan, Turkey, NATO/UN and Israel. He suggests the abduction and possible murder of the youths is an Israeli false flag to push Israelis toward the peace process, providing the Prime Minister Netanyahu the necessary excuse to rid the West Bank/Jordan Valley of Hamas (although US-trained ISIS has publicly claimed responsibility, working in all probability in conjunction with Shabak and Israeli police). The peace process can then proceed with President Mahmoud Abbas of the State of Palestine. Former Mossad division head Rami Igra told The Jerusalem Post Monday, "There have been no facts presented to the public that they have been abducted by Hamas . . . Until such conclusive verification surfaces, Netanyahu's claims have more political than factual undertones".
US-Sponsored Terrorism in Iraq and 'Constructive Chaos' in the Middle East
June 19, 2014 — Iraq is once again front page news. And once again the picture that is presented to us in the Western mainstream media is a mixture of half truths, falsehoods, disinformation and propaganda. The mainstream media will not tell you that the US is supporting both sides in the Iraqi conflict. Washington is overtly supporting the Iraqi Shiite government, while covertly training, arming and funding the Sunni Islamic State of Iraq and Syria (ISIS). Supporting the influx of terrorist brigades in Iraq is an act of aggression. But the mainstream media will tell you that the Obama administration is "concerned" by the actions committed by the terrorists . . .
What is unfolding is a process of "constructive chaos", engineered by the West. The destabilization of Iraq and its fragmentation has been planned long ago and is part of the "Anglo-American-Israeli 'military road map' in the Middle East", as explained in 2006 in the following article:
"This project, which has been in the planning stages for several years, consists in creating an arc of instability, chaos, and violence extending from Lebanon, Palestine, and Syria to Iraq, the Persian Gulf, Iran, and the borders of NATO-garrisoned Afghanistan.
The 'New Middle East' project was introduced publicly by Washington and Tel Aviv with the expectation that Lebanon would be the pressure point for realigning the whole Middle East and thereby unleashing the forces of "constructive chaos" . . . which generates conditions of violence and warfare throughout the region . . . so that the United States, Britain, and Israel could redraw the map of the Middle East in accordance with their geo-strategic needs and objectives . . . A wider war in the Middle East could result in redrawn borders that are strategically advantageous to Anglo-American interests and Israel . . . Attempts at intentionally creating animosity between the different ethno-cultural and religious groups of the Middle East have been systematic . . . part of a carefully designed covert intelligence agenda . . . we are clearly witnessing the balkanization of Iraq with the help of the favorite imperial tool, namely armed militias, referred to as pro-democracy opposition or terrorists depending on the context and the role they have to play in the collective psyche . . . The scenario is to arm and equip them, on both sides, finance them with advanced weapons systems and then 'let them fight' . . .
Under the banner of a civil war, an undercover war of aggression is being fought which essentially contributes to further destroying an entire country, its institutions, its economy. The undercover operation is part of an intelligence agenda, an engineered process which consists in transforming Iraq into an open territory. Meanwhile, public opinion is led to believe that what is at stake is confrontation between Shia and Sunni." (Michel Chossudovsky, The Engineered Destruction and Political Fragmentation of Iraq. Towards the Creation of a US Sponsored Islamist Caliphate, June 14, 2014). . .
"When Paul Bremer dissolved the Iraqi National Security and Police Forces, he formed another one from mercenaries and sectarian militias who were backing and supporting the occupation. In reality, the nature of hideous crimes committed by these forces was the major motivation behind the sectarian violence killing of 2006-2007. . . "US sponsored death squads were recruited in Iraq starting in 2004-2005 in an initiative launched under the helm of the US Ambassador John Negroponte, who was dispatched to Baghdad by the US State Department in June 2004 . . . What is happening now was planned long ago. The truth is that US foreign policy in the Middle East is diabolical, brutally repressive, criminal and undemocratic. And the only way out of this bloody mess is "a return to the law" . . . Full story: globalresearch.ca.

Comment: If you have been carefully studying our Newsletters and following the links you will know that World War III is to be directed in such a manner that Islam (the Arab World including Mohammedanism) and Political Zionism (including the State of Israel) will destroy themselves while at the same time the remaining nations, once more divided against each other on this issue, will be forced to fight themselves into a state of complete exhaustion physically, mentally, spiritually and economically. Can any unbiased and reasoning person deny that the intrigue now going on in the Near, Middle, and Far East is designed to accomplish this devilish purpose?
Libya Full Circle. When deemed 'Conspiracy Theory' becomes Reality
June 18, 2014 — In the duration of the "revolutionary frenzy" that categorized western media coverage of the Libyan Civil War in 2011, public audiences were captivated with both tales of rebels aspiring for "democracy" and complimenting stories of unabated brutality by Gaddafi forces.
Without any serious mainstream criticism, an imperialist mythology centered on the interventionist doctrine of the "Responsibility to Protect" was cemented in public consciousness with even usually non-mainstream and "anti-imperialist" figures such as Juan Cole deliberately misrepresenting the situation in Libya. In Cole's perspective, no reference to armed militants from the start of the conflict or the role of extremism and western premeditation found its way into the narrative; he predicted a simplistic narrative where the overthrow of Gaddafi would lead the region into an era of unity, prosperity and freedom . . . Libya as a functioning, cohesive state has virtually ceased to exist, having been replaced by a myriad of conflicting factions divided on tribal and religious lines. While mainstream media tends to obscure the identity of these factions and their connection to western imperialists, Eric Draitser in his analysis, "Benghazi, the CIA, and the War in Libya" shows the beyond the fractious infighting, both primary factions engaging in direct combat have been beneficiaries of the NATO imperialist powers in their systematic aggression against the Libyan state.
Battling over the strategic commercial area around Benghazi is the Islamist Ansar al-Sharia led by Ahmed Abu Khattala fighting against the former leader of the CIA-backed Libyan National Salvation Front and current renegade Libyan Army General Khalifa Hifter. The conflict is more complex than merely conflagration between these two main parties and is interspersed with competing militias and gangs. As noted by Draitser, the February 17th Marytrs Brigade, seen as one of the most capable militias in the region, has received training by western forces and is seen as a reliable security force, but is recognized by its own members as having anti-American sentiments.
The Islamist Ansar al-Sharia has been implicated in the September 11, 2012 attack on the American consulate in Benghazi with its leader Khattala admitting being present but denying leading the attack. With no end in sight for the war, it appears that the primary gainers in the conflict are the western corporate-financier interests who orchestrated the overthrow of Gaddafi because he was seen as an impediment to accomplishing their geopolitical aims.
Now they admit the truth. On April 24, 2014, Washington's Blog published a priceless and concise piece titled "Confirmed: US Armed Al Qaeda to Topple Libya's Gaddaffi" with a very astonishing admission by "top military officers, CIA insiders and think-tankers" confirming the obvious truth that "conspiracy theorists" have been saying since 2011. The US backed Al Qaeda in Libya and that the Benghazi attack was a byproduct of this. Washington's Blog notes that in 2012, it documented that: The US supported opposition which overthrew Libya's Gadaffi was largely comprised of Al Qaeda terrorists . . . Full story: globalresearch.ca
Jim Willie: BRICS 80 preparing to take down the Dollar
May 8, 2014 — Dr. Jim Willie has been talking about the BRICS nations (Brazil, Russia, China, India and South Africa) being joined by other nations to take down the dollar. He says there are now 80 nations in the BRICS alliance who have joined together to end the dollar's reign as the international reserve currency. China could have taken down the US economy any time it wanted to after it had accumulated more than a trillion dollars in US Treasury bonds. All it had to do was to sell them and buy real assets until the US government collapsed and surrendered.
The Chinese are playing a much more sophisticated game. Their goal is to take down the dollar and the British pound but not to hurt their customers in Africa, Latin America, Australia and elsewhere. He thinks a Northern euro will emerge leaving southern Europe and France far behind. Italy's future was hurt when they mistakenly decided to send half of their gold to New York. That gold is in Asia along with the bullion from the Netherlands and Germany. Dr Willie agrees with Jim Rickards who says the dollar will be devalued 80%. This will make imported goods 500% more expensive. And it will also enable foreigners to buy food off the shelves of America and Great Britain. Please note that the British pound is being targeted by the BRICS 80 as well.
Dr. Willie also believes that J. P. Morgan and other financial firms in the US and the UK are helping China to manipulate gold and silver. The Chinese want to buy gold for a low price and spend it at a much higher price when everything goes to hell and Americans have to sell off their few remaining assets to feed themselves. He says the London and New York banks have been sending a thousand tons of gold to China every month since April of 2012. The dollar will collapse and the price of gold will skyrocket when there is no gold left in London and New York to send to China. . .

Comment: Georgetown University historian Professor Carroll Quigley styled himself the librarian of the international bankers. In his 1966 book Tragedy and Hope, he wrote that their aim was "nothing less than to create a world system of financial control in private hands able to dominate the political system of each country and the economy of the world as a whole." This system was to be controlled "in a feudalist fashion by the central banks of the world acting in concert by secret agreements," central banks that "were themselves private corporations."
It may be the Chinese, not acting in concert, who break up this cartel. The PBoC is no more transparent than the US Fed, but it is not an "independent" central bank. It is a government agency accountable to the Chinese government and acting on its behalf.
The Chinese have evidently figured out the game of the "independent" central bankers, and appear to be using it to their own advantage. If the Fed can do quantitative easing, so can the Chinese—and buy up our assets with the proceeds. Owning our corporations rather than our Treasuries helps the Chinese break up US dollar hegemony. Whatever power plays are going on behind the scenes, it is increasingly clear that they are not serving we-the-people. The global central banking scheme is systemically flawed and needs to be radically overhauled . . . Full story: globalresearch.ca
Connecting the Dots: Israel, London, Wall Street and the Mideast
September 26, 2013 — General Abdel Fattah el-Sisi was Egypt's commanding general and then Egypt's Defense minister. Now he is the country's First Deputy Prime Minister. And he is Jewish. That he is Jewish is left out of all Corporate Media articles. If you knew his mother was a Moroccan Jew and that his uncle was a member of the Israeli Knesset, you might be able to connect the dots and see through the illusions spun by the news.
Knowing that General Sisi is Jewish might help you understand why he has ordered all the tunnels from Egypt to Gaza be destroyed. An Egyptian Muslim or an American or European Gentile might consider allowing the tunnels to remain open as that is the only reliable means of food and medicine for the much persecuted Gazans . . . Now that you understand Sisi is Jewish, you know why he is helping Israel to abuse the Palestinians of Gaza, and also why he is killing so many of the Muslims in Egypt.
Our next two dots are in Saudi Arabia and Turkey but we will have to go back to Sabbatai Zevi (1626-1676) to understand their origins. Rabbi Zevi claimed to be the Jewish Messiah. He taught his followers to invoke the wrath of God to hasten the days of the End of the (Gentile) Age. He told them to commit incest and even that daughters should conceive babies by their fathers. He obtained many followers. Some say half of the Jews of Europe followed him as they subsequently did Rabbi Jacob Frank who also claimed to be the Messiah and was a Satanist.
Zevi burned the Torah and accepted only the Talmud, the Zohar and the Kabbalah . . . the Sultan forced Zevi to convert to Islam. He founded his own sect of Islam called the Donmeh which added some Sufi mysticism to his teachings. Modern day Turkey has at least 100,000 Donmeh . . . The Donmeh were very powerful within the Sultan's regime and in the Young Turks movement that replaced them with the modern secular Turkish state . . . Full story: vidrebel.wordpress.com

He has now been returned to Ghezal Hesar Prison in Karaj and is back in touch with his family but his physical condition and whereabouts during the time of his disappearance are unclear.
Sudan, June 24, 2014 — 27-year-old physician Meriam Ibrahim Ishag was sentenced to death after being found guilty of apostasy (publicly renouncing Islam) . . . she told the court . . .

Your Mansion in that City of Gold
The discourses recorded in John 14:1-7 took place after John 13:34 wherein Jesus commanded His disciples "you should love one another as I have loved you" and after Peter had been humbled and silent by the Lord informing him that on the coming morning before His crucifixion "the cock shall not crow until you have denied Me thrice," and the other disciples, sadly moved by what they had just learned of the treason of Judas, Peter's imminent denial, and the departure of their beloved Lord (John 13:1, 31), He addressed to them these opening Words of good cheer which, coming from His lips with all the thrilling solemnities of the night preceding His crucifixion, have an immeasurable power of comfort and consolation in the seasons of deepest distress on the borders of despair.
This composed the last moments spent by the Lord in the midst of His disciples before His passion, when Words full of heavenly thought flowed from His sacred lips. All that His heart that glowed with love had yet to say to His friends was compressed into this short session. At first they conversed together around the table in familiarity. But when the repast was over (John 14:31) the language of Christ assumed a loftier tone and the disciples spoke nary a word but listened in profound silence to the Words of Life and His intercessory prayer in John 15 – 16; of the Coming of the Spirit through new birth and what we call the 'third pull' to which the disciples declared, "Ah, now You are speaking plainly and not in figures of speech; now we know that you know all things and need none to tell you. From this we believe that you came from God" (John 16:29-30). And finally He prayed for unity in the faith and reunion in that meeting in the air.
Two thousand years ago the disciples realized by the Messianic sign of Hebrews 4:12 that Jesus Christ was God manifest in virgin-born flesh as nineteen hundred years ago Abraham knew by the same sign that Melchisedec was God manifest in created flesh. Yet those who claim to be His disciples today cannot see the sign manifest in the ministry of His prophet revealed "Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, and today, and forever" as He foretold (Luke 17:28-30; Hebrews 13:8).
John 14:1-7, "Let not your heart [spirit and soul] be troubled: you believe in God, believe [and fully trust] also in Me [by the revelation I am the invisible God made visible]. In My Father's house [Kingdom] are many dwelling places: if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you to Myself; that where I am, there you may be also. And you know where I am going, and you know the way."
Jesus means to say, "Because you know the way to the place I am going, you also know the destination".
"Thomas said to Him, Lord, [because] we do not know where you are going; how can we know the way?"
"Jesus said to him, I am the way, the Truth, and the Life: no man comes to the Father, but by Me. If you had known Me [by revelation], you should have known My Father also: and from henceforth you know Him, and have seen Him".
Jesus had already told the disciples that His destination is Glory in His Father (John 13:1, 31 – 14:1). Thinking naturally, Thomas was trying to distinguish between the destination and the way. Jesus explains "I am the way to the Father: no man comes to the Father but by the ransom of their KINSMAN Redeemer; I am the manifested truth of all you will find in the Father when you get to Him because I am the glory of the Father who is in Me and I am in Him." Paul explained, "In Jesus dwells ALL the fullness of the Godhead bodily" (Colossians 2:9; John 10:30). And He is all "the Life" that shall ever flow to us and bless us from the Godhead thus approached and thus manifested in Him; "this is the true God and eternal Life" (I John 5:20).
John 14:18-20, "I will not leave you as abandoned orphans: I will come to you [in new birth]. Yet a little while, and the world will see Me no more; but you will see me: because I live, you will 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".
The aim of each Christian is to enter that one out of the "thousand thousands" of mansions or dwelling places that is the eternal destination made especially for him or her.
Throughout the dispensations of PART-Word the focus of ministry was on justification by grace through faith with Christ in the office Son of God interceding for the ignorance of the elect on the fullness of the Word. Since the revelation of the Seven Seals the apostolic faith has been restored and "the mystery of God is finished" (Malachi 4:5-6; Revelation 10:7); and because by God's help we now have the perfect interpretation of the Word with divine vindication, the thrust of ministry is redemption revealed. "Since the fullness of the Word has come, PART-Word and Christ's mediation has been done away. When I was a child, I spoke as a child; I understood as a child, I thought as a child: but when I became a man, I put away childish things. [Throughout the Church Ages when the Book was sealed the saints, like children], understood the revelation dimly as if seeing through a [polished copper looking-]glass; but since the mystery of God is finished we see the revelation as if face to face: When the Book was sealed we knew in PART; but now I understand fully even as clearly as God knows my heart. Faith, hope and love remain, but the greatest of these is love" . . . the Capstone (I Corinthians 13:10-13).
This diagram illustrates how Christ's Body has grown from "birth" (Hebrews 5:7 – 6:3) at its Pentecostal foundation with each successive Age of PART-Word expressing one of the virtues of the sevenfold Spirit. I Peter 1:1-8: faith, virtue, knowledge, temperance, patience, godliness, and brotherly kindness were the Token or evidence of new birth in the Ages of PART-Word as the Body grew to maturity in the fullness of the Spirit-anointed Word into the Capstone or Head of the Body. The anointed Messages of seven angels regenerated the elect to eternal Life and transformed them into "written epistles" of the Word for their day so "when the enemy came in like a flood, the Spirit of the Lord raised up the predominant virtue to the Age as a standard against him [as a river straitened in its course, driven by the breath of the Lord" (Isaiah 59:19).
Now we are in the Capstone of the Body, resting in this holy convocation, basking in the S_O_N-Light of the fullness of God's Word, reaching maturity in the unity of the faith, waiting on the last predestinated member of Christ's end-time Bride to recognize his day and its Message so that the Lord can sound the Seventh Trumpet, pour out the Seventh Vial, manifest the Sixth Seal and raise the sleeping PART-Word saints while we manifest that we are the Sons of God.
Since Christ resumed the office Son of God He is King of kings and Judge (John 5:27). The revelation of the Seven Seals confirmed the duration of each of the Church Ages, explained how the saints were redeemed in each dispensation of PART-Word, and consequently who were redeemed in each Age. Therefore we know which Scriptures have been fulfilled and will not ignorantly impersonate the Word for a day gone by, which "would make our folly manifest to all men" as it does in circles within the world church system (II Timothy 3:9).
This surely enables us to attain "the peace of God that passes all [human] understanding" (Philippians 4:7) and rest in the Holy Convocation of the antitype of the 50th day of Israel's Pentecostal Feast (Leviticus 23:21). The diagram illustrates the seven sabbaths or Church Ages of PART-Word and the present Holy Convocation of this Capstone Age. We must be sure that we know that we know we know by a clear revelation because "God is no longer winking at the times of ignorance" (Acts 17:30). As Jesus and the Father are one, through the invisible marriage union Christ and His wife are one; we are the Word for our day expressed, and in the time of the 'third pull' what we say He will do because we will be expressing His thoughts through our lips (Romans 8:19).
In the days of His Flesh God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself; since Pentecost He has committed the ministry of reconciliation to you in His stead. So it is no longer you willing and running but Christ dwelling in you and performing the same works He did.
God's elect are attributes of the Logos, expressed in sin-born bodies by our new birth. The one thing that could quicken the soul of God's elect to new birth in any age was the Word God predestinated to manifest for that dispensation. I heard a Message minister whose folly is manifest insist that a clear revelation of the true oneness of the godhead and scriptural water baptism according to Acts 2:38-39 that gave the new birth in the days of the apostles gives the new birth today, and there is no necessity to receive the Word of the hour. While it is true that revelation of and obedience to Acts 2:38-39 will certainly baptize one who is elect into the Body of Christ in this day. In every dispensation one who was truly born-again will receive and become a "written epistle" of the Word predestinated for his Age. If not he went down a dry sinner and rose up a wet sinner, or he is a foolish virgin. Either way he is not elect for Jesus said, "My sheep will receive My Word," and Isaiah 55:11 states, "My Word will not return to me void but it shall accomplish that which I please, and prosper in the thing whereto I sent it." God's messengers have not run in vain; His objective is to gather glory to Himself by expressing His attributes for each season of His Word in its season.
Jesus is Alpha and Omega; the pure faith once delivered to the apostolic saints is the foundation on which His Body is built. Seven dispensations of PART-Word followed since the fullness was lost through nicolaitanism, the introduction of an unscriptural clerical hierarchy between God and men, and Balaamism which is the substitution of false teaching for the true Word of God. For its first six hundred years the Church was composed primarily of Israelite converts and infiltrated by Judaizers who were not Jews by religion or by blood (Revelation 2 – 3). Their Judaeo-Roman Catholic false church persecuted and martyred the saints for almost the next thousand years and the legacy of its false dogmas persist even in the circle of this end-time Message that has restored Christ's Omega end-time Bride to the apostolic faith and finished the mystery of God.
Our diagrams illustrate Scripture in history and show nine dispensations within the Gentile dispensation that is the antitype of Israel's Pentecostal Feast; each formed and distinguished by nine distinct baptisms with the Holy Spirit by which Christ has begotten His spoken Word Bride by grace through faith in the Word for their day (I John 1:7; II Peter 1:12). As individuals we are all baptized into one Body, but as individual "members in particular." This one Body of Christ's W_O_R_D Bride is spoken by nine different Messages constituting nine individual "members in particular" (I Corinthians 12). The diagram represents the seven golden lampstands that stood before the Holy of Holies south in the Sanctuary. Christ shone His Light or revelation for the Age through the seven stars in His right Hand "The seven stars are the angels of the seven Church Ages: and the seven lampstands which you saw are the seven Churches" (Revelation 1:20). As the S_U_N types the S_O_N, the moon types the Church which reflects the S_O_N-Light into the world in the absence of the Son. The diagram illustrates how the Light or revelation of God's Word diminished after Pentecost as the love of the world and the things of the world eclipsed the S_O_N-Light from the Church until it was almost smothered in the Dark Ages of the Thyatira Church Age. Then God began the Reformation of the Judaeo-Roman Catholic system of false worship through Martin Luther, the angel to the Sardis Church Age who taught Justification by grace through faith alone, followed by the angel to the Philadelphian Age, John Wesley, who added the Light of Sanctification to Luther's Justification. Next Laodicea added the revelation "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, and today, and forever": God still performs miracles, heals the sick, casts out demons, speaks and interprets other tongues and prophesies, etc. The angel to the Laodicean Church Age was William Branham. When Laodicea ended in apostasy (Romans 11:32; II Timothy 4:4; II Thessalonians 2:3; Revelation 3:17-20) Brother Branham, the prophet of Malachi 4:5-6, Matthew 17:11 and Revelation 10:7 was anointed for His prophetic ministry which restored the apostolic faith and revealed the Seven Seals which finished the mystery of God and introduced Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming. He is the Messenger to Christ's end-time Bride.
Christ is Alpha and Omega, the Word at the beginning and the Word at the end but he was not the PART-Word that required mediation in between. The Pentecostal foundation and Capstone Brides were begotten by the Spirit of the Lord revealing mysteries hidden in the Old Testament prophets and concealed under Old Testament symbols in the Book of Revelation respectively. The Church Age saints were begotten by faith in the Messages of the seven angels throughout the great tribulation of the Gentile dispensation which runs from the investiture of Titus' troops in Judea to the close of the Gentile dispensation (Matthew 24:15-28; Revelation 7:9-17).
If you have eternal Life now you were always eternal with God because eternal is without beginning of time or end of days. I Peter 1:2-5, "Elect according to the foreknowledge of God the Father, through sanctification of the Spirit, unto obedience and sprinkling of the blood of Jesus Christ: Grace unto you, and peace, be multiplied".
If God arbitrarily chose which persons in Adam's race would be elect He would be unjust to those who are non-elect. God placed everyone, even Lucifer, on the basis of free moral agency to receive and fulfill His Word or follow the desires of this world, so election is based upon His foreknowledge of their decisions and actions before there was a world.
This is established in Genesis 1:27; before He made a speck of stardust "God created man in His own image, in the image of God He created him [a spirit man, or 'angel']; male and female He created them [the whole Book of Life—every man and woman in Adam's race]." In His great thinking He saw each one and placed them on free moral agency to choose and obey His will, or refuse and become "fallen angels." By foreknowledge the omniscient Lord God knew us before the world was and looked from eternity through billions or trillions of years in time to see what we would do with His unchanging Word. "And we know that all things work together for good to them that love God, to them who are the called in agreement with His purpose. For [His elect] whom He foreknew He also predestinated to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren [in the new creation of God-men]. And those whom He predestinated He also called; and those whom He called He also justified: and those whom He justified He also glorified" (Romans 8:28-30).
Jesus confirmed this when He prayed, "O Father, glorify Me with Your own self with the glory which I had with You before the world was" (John 17:5). Jesus is the Logos or sum of God's thoughts, which is the Attributes that is Himself expressed in virgin-born-flesh and we are Attributes of the Logos and were in Him when "the appearance of the likeness of the Glory of God was expressed." We were in Him when He was adored by the magi, and when He walked the shores of Galilee. We paid for our sins in Christ on Calvary; we were in Him when He descended to the place of the departed and preached to the souls in prison; we were in Christ when He was raised for our justification, and are seated in Him in heavenly places which is our position in the Word that is "the present Truth—what Jesus is doing now".
There it is, in God's great thinking you are already a finished product, and nothing shall separate us from the love of Christ: tribulation, distress, persecution, famine, or nakedness, peril or sword (Romans 8:33-39). Like a natural child we grow as a Spirit babe from our second birth to maturity for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the full adoption in the "mansion" of Gold that is our deified Body. God does not see you in your corruptible flesh; He sees your angel or theophany which has the appearance of your eternal glorified Body.
The natural baby cries out for his needs and its earthly parents provide those things and guide it in life's journey until it is mature and able to make its own way in the world. Likewise the Holy Spirit cries out from the heart of Christ's Bride for Spiritual Food in due season, or cries out from the pulpit or through the Message of Bible to the heart of the saint with correction to bring it to the measure of the stature of the perfect Man and into conformation with its theophany.
I Peter 1:3-5, "Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who according to His abundant mercy has begotten us again [in new birth] unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead, to an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that does not fade away, reserved in heaven for you, who are kept by the power of God through faith to salvation ready to be revealed in the last time" [at the resurrection of the sleeping saints and the manifestation and translation of we who are alive and remain]. "The last days" on the other hand refers to the Messianic age of reconciliation and redemption, or Gentile dispensation.
We are preserved from sin, sickness and loss by the wonder-working power of revelation. No true believer is any stronger and spiritually healthy and alive than his knowledge of and adherence to the pure Word of God and 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. Jesus said He would build His Church upon spiritual revelation of the "present Truth—what Jesus is doing now".
I Peter 1:6-7, "We rejoice in this, though now for a little while we may have to endure various trials: so that the testing of our faith, which is more precious than gold which though perishable is tested by fire, may prove to be for praise and glory and honour at the unveiling of Jesus Christ."
Hebrews 12:6-8, "For whom the Lord loves He chastens and scourges every son whom he receives. If you endure chastening, God deals with you as with sons; for what son is he whom his father chastens not? But if you are without chastisement, whereof all are partakers, then you are bastards and not sons".
In God's Kingdom there will be no education, no achievements in science or technology, no motor cars or aeroplanes and no civilization or intellectual achievements such as we have today, for we will live by faith in innocence. In our mansion of gold there will be no sickness, no old age or injury, aches and pains, no child birth, germs, disease, sin, lust or death.
This old coat we wear now came to us through sex and fell with the world so it must give way and die. God will destroy it in the twinkle of an eye. Through death the Church Age saints abandon their ragged old coat with its patches and tears, enter their theophany and fellowship in the sixth dimension with the Brothers and sisters from their dispensation until the last saint predestinated to Christ's end-time Bride is baptized into the Body. Then they will return to earth, Church Age by Church Age and their theophanies shall put on glorified flesh while we who are alive and remain manifest that we are the Sons of God under preeminence to the Word of God in a season when we have become a rejected and persecuted group, with perhaps nowhere to lay our head, and without friend or material possessions. But we have Christ the Word and when we speak He will provide our necessities.
Our exercise of the 'third pull' in the time of the manifestation of the Sons of God will elevate our faith for translation grace, for as our Lord Jesus resurrected by the exercise of His own faith (John 2:19), we must change in the atoms to our new one-of-a-kind bespoke tailored golden coat and unite with our theophany. This will take place after the resurrection of the Laodicean saints, one of whom will appear to us personally. Mutual recognition will supercharge our faith to change in the atoms and pass from the three dimensions in which we now live to the sixth dimension, there we will be caught up together with them in the Cloud of the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord as Brother Branham was caught up into the Cloud or Shekinah formed by the constellation of the seven angels or fullness of the Spirit; we will meet the Lord in the air and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
Do you see how important it is that we "study to show our self approved of God, a workman that need not be ashamed, rightly dividing the Word of truth . . . [and] give diligence to make our calling and election sure: for if we do these things, we shall never fall: for so an entrance shall be ministered unto us abundantly into the everlasting kingdom of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ" (II Timothy 2:15; II Peter 1:10-11). If we fail to line up with the Word there is something wrong, our soul was not predestinated. We must have the wedding garment of THUS SAITH THE LORD. Jesus said "Many will say to Me in that day, Lord, Lord, we have prophesied in your Name, and in Your Name cast out demons." But if they won't line up with His Word, even though they are anointed with the Spirit, they are anti-Christ.
Man's day is fast fading and soon it will pass. We must match God's Word so that our coat fits, otherwise we will be unable to fly away into glory land. But we will meet at the Wedding Supper, and after the first long day I will see you in glory land. nl842.htm
