Pope Francis: Pawn of Big Jewry and Promoter of White Genocide
May 28, 2017 — Don't trust the Pope. He is either an infiltrator and secret agent of the Jews or maybe he is even a crypto-Jew doing his best to transform the church into a branch of the Synagogue [as it has been since it was organized at the First Nicaea Council (Revelation 2:12-15)].
Here are a few hard facts you need to consider carefully. Only a couple of weeks ago, the Pope won the prestigious Charlemagne Prize for 2016. If that doesn't start alarm bells ringing for you, nothing will. The Charlemagne Prize is also known as the Coudenhove Kalergi Prize . . . Full story: darkmoon.me

Prof. Kevin MacDonald talks about Donald Trump
May 11, 2016 — The three participants agree that the most important issue now facing America is immigration and that Donald Trump is the man of the hour. The Donald is not a Jewish stooge, they insist; he is the genuine thing. If elected, there will be sweeping changes in America for the good.

EU Referendum: Plans that could pave Way for 'EU army' are 'being held back'
May 28, 2016 — The plans, which have only been shown to EU diplomats, are understood to include proposals or new European military structures, including a headquarters. According to The Times, which has seen extracts of the plans from diplomatic notes, the proposals will not be sent to national governments until after Britain's EU referendum on 23 June to avoid giving succour to the Leave campaign . . .

Give Thought to US Prospects against Russians & Chinese in World War III
By Dr. Paul Craig Roberts Former US Asst. Sec. of Treasury for Economic Policy
May 28, 2016 — The Saker reports that Russia is preparing for World War III, not because Russia intends to initiate aggression but because Russia is alarmed by the hubris and arrogance of the West, by the demonization of Russia, by provocative military actions by the West, by American interference in the Russian province of Chechnya and in former Russian provinces of Ukraine and Georgia, and by the absence of any restraint from Western Europe on Washington's ability to foment war . . .
It is extraordinary to see the confidence that many Americans place in their military's ability. After 15 years the US has been unable to defeat a few lightly armed Taliban, and after 13 years the situation in Iraq remains out of control. This is not very reassuring for the prospect of taking on Russia, much less the strategic alliance between Russia and China. The US could not even defeat China, a Third World country at the time, in Korea 60 years ago . . .
Russian weapons systems are far superior to American ones . . . It is entirely possible that the world is being led to destruction by nothing more than the greed of the US military-security complex. Delighted that the reckless and stupid Obama regime has resurrected the Cold War, thus providing a more convincing "enemy" than the hoax terrorist one, the "Russian threat" has been restored to its 20th century role of providing a justification for bleeding the American taxpayer, social services, and the US economy dry in behalf of profits for armament manufacturers.
However, this time Washington's rhetoric accompanying the revived Cold War is far more reckless and dangerous, as are Washington's actions, than during the real Cold War. Previous US presidents worked to defuse tensions. The Obama regime has inflated tensions with lies and reckless provocations, which makes it far more likely that the new Cold War will turn hot. If Killary gains the White House, the world is unlikely to survive her first term.
All of America's wars except the first—the war for independence—were wars for Empire . . . The United States has never been in peril, but Washington has delivered peril to numerous other countries in its pursuit of hegemony over others.
Today for the first time in its history the US faces peril as a result of Washington's attempts to assert hegemony over Russia and China. Full story: paulcraigroberts.org

Americans Consume Ten Hours Controlled 'Programming' per Day
May 26, 2016 — If you allow someone to pump hours of 'programming' into your mind every single day, it is inevitably going to have a major impact on how you view the world. In America today, the average person consumes approximately 10 hours of information, news and entertainment a day, and there are six giant media corporations that overwhelmingly dominate that market. In fact, it has been estimated that somewhere around 90 percent of the 'programming' that we constantly feed our minds comes from them, and of course they are ultimately controlled by the elite of the world. So is there any hope for our country as long as the vast majority of the population is continually plugging themselves into this enormous 'propaganda matrix'?

Jubilee – Part V
Today we will continue our "Jubilee" series quoting from Brother Branham's teachings Gabriel's Instructions to Daniel, The Sixfold Purpose of Gabriel's Visit to Daniel, and The Seventieth Week of Daniel. If you do not have the transcripts of these Messages you may download .pdf files from these links. Our opening scriptures are:
Hebrews 10:1, "The Law has a shadow of good things to come and not the very image of those things . . ." And,
Hebrews 13:8, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever".
On these two principles God's Prophet William Branham followed the example of Judah's prophet in Daniel 9:1-19. After the expiration of sixty-eight of the prophesied seventy-years desolation of Jerusalem Daniel "made his confession of his people and his confession of himself. He wanted to be sure that he found out when they were to go back, because he wanted to get the people ready to go back. Now, what I'm trying to do, is find out when we're going up, and get the people ready to go up, that we're ready. And we've set our face to God through prayers and supplications to find out, "Lord, what's the hour we're living in?" (The Sixfold Purpose of Gabriel's Visit to Daniel p. 45:39; Jeremiah 29:10).
Brother Branham explained: "In the fourth chapter [Revelation 4:1-2] John [who represents every member of Christ's end-time Bride] was caught up immediately after the Church [Ages ended in Revelation 3:22]. John, going up, he saw the complete Church Age. There's where I'd like to stop just a second to say that many peoples who are expecting some great, tremendous, powerful something to happen in the Gentile Age are certainly wrong. The Church Age and all that will happen during the Gentile reign is recorded from Revelation 1 to Revelation 3, inclusive. Then the Church was raptured and taken up, and the rest of this unto the 19th chapter is what happens to theJewish Israelite race, after the Church is gone up, and it is the time of the great tribulation, nothing to happen amongst the Gentiles, only the slaughtering and so forth, as we'll get to that and see. But the Church itself has gone on the last verse of the third chapter of Revelation when the Laodicean Church Age end, which was the last" (Gabriel's Instructions to Daniel, p. 9:41-42).
The 'rapture,' precious Brethren, is a revelation.
Seventy years is a lifespan and since Daniel was transported to Babylon as a young man, the generation of his seniors would have expired as the Laodicean saints in the circle of this Message have passed on. In response to Daniel's prayer the Angel Gabriel informed him, "Seventy weeks [of years] is [yet] determined upon your people and upon your holy city . . . until the consummation" of life (Daniel 9:27). These 490 360-day prophetic years commenced from the edict of Persia's King Cyrus on Nisan 14, 445BC to restore and build Jerusalem (Nehemiah 2). In seven weeks or 49 (360-day) prophetic years her streets and walls would be rebuilt despite troublous times. Within sixty-two weeks (434 prophetic years) Messiah would come, thereafter He would be executed with no cause found against Him, leaving one week of 7 prophetic years.
Brother Branham said, "I want to stop right here just a moment and explain this. That when they rejected the Messiah was when they . . . rejected Jesus as Saviour and crucified Him. You remember over here what the Bible said: "And He shall be cut off, but not for Himself, Messiah, the Prince . . ." (Daniel 9:26; John 11:50). Now, think how close that prophecy hit. I want to get this drilled into you, that if that prophecy hit exactly to the date, exactly to the time, and exactly the way it said it would, this one weeks left [of 7] years will hit exactly according to the Scripture."
"Now, remember, He was cut off: Messiah. Jews Israel [as a nation], God ceased to deal with them. They did not go any farther. Then they were scattered by the Roman Empire [Zechariah 13:7]. And have you noticed on my chart here . . . You notice here where I got the cross? That's where they rejected. But the time extended out just a little bit farther on that . . . forty years later Titus the Roman general destroyed Israel—Jerusalem, and scattered the people to all the world . . . when they crucified Christ, they cried, "Let His blood be upon us and our children," and it's been ever since . . . He went dealing with the Gentile."
"Now, my missionary brother, that was to the Jews, a precious dear brother here somewhere, here's what I want you to catch and understand. See, God quit dealing with the Jews right there, because God always deals with Israel as a nation. We all know that. Israel is a nation. Gentiles are a people. And He had to take a people out of the Gentiles for His Name [Matthew 16:19; Acts 10:19-48; 15:14] . . . we have went through in the Gentile time, from the crucifixion of Christ until the end of the Church Ages . . . we've been through it all down. Now, we're getting to a place where we can . . . go into the Seven Seals, Seven Vials, Seven Trumpets, and all that it pictures together, all dealing with the Jews and God's judgment to the people upon the earth, and the remnant . . ." (The Seventieth week of Daniel, p. 94:98-102).
On the diagram you will note an extension of time from the opening of the Seven Seals after the close of the Laodicean Church Age in 1963 when Christ's Mediation is fulfilled and Redemption is over. Neither His end-time Bride (nor the elect Israelites) require mediation for ignorance, as we are predestinated to recognize the mystery of the Seven Seals or Seven Trumpet mysteries. Thus we were fully redeemed in Christ on Calvary and born-again by the Word for our day which is the equivalent of hearing one's name called from the Lamb's Book of Life (John 10:1-5; II Peter 1:12; I John 1:7).
Brother Branham explained, "Each Seal broken in the Word of God reveals to the man of the age what age we're living in, the spirit of the age, the church of the age. Revelations 10, at the end when the last Seal was broke, we find the Angel standing with one foot on the land and one on the sea, with His hands up to heaven, and a rainbow over His head, swearing by Him that lives forever and ever, that time has run out on the last Seal. And you wait till we get in them Seals and see where that Seal's at. After you find the seventy of weeks, then see where the Seals are. Time has run out. Redemption is over. He is now the Lion and the Judge. He's your Saviour this morning, but one day He'll be your Judge".
"The 8th through the 14th verse of the fifth chapter reveals the time for the Lamb to be worshipped both in heaven and in earth, the Seven Sealed Book, the worthy Lamb, the Kinsman Redeemer. And from the 8th verse through the 14th, Angels worship Him, elders worship Him, living creatures worship Him, and John worshipped Him so much till he said, "Every creature in heaven, in the earth, underneath the earth heard me saying, Blessing, glory, power, wisdom, might be to the Lamb." The worship time for the King Lamb [the holy convocation of the antitype of the fiftieth day of Israel's Pentecostal feast]" (Gabriel's Instructions to Daniel, p. 12:63-64; Leviticus 23:15-21; Revelation 5:8-14; The Revelation of the Seven Seals, p. 328:5; 500:Q23a-Q23b; 565:3-4; 578:1-3).
Brother Branham said, "Notice, way back here . . . You see this line drawed back in here [on the diagram] where never dealt with the Jews, it taken Him . . . forty years to get them into the condition to where that He could have them destroyed to all the nations . . . Look up over the top of this last Church Age. See this little extension? The Gentile days are finishing . . ." (The Seventieth Week of Daniel, p. 98:113-114).
"There is all this talk about the glossalalia—it is supposed to be the evidence of the Baptism of the Holy Ghost, and people are thinking that we are in the midst of a great revival. The revival is over. America had her last chance in 1957 [the jubilee of the Laodicean Church Age dating from the 1906 Azusa Street, Los Angeles revival plus 50 years. And because it was ignored Los Angeles will sink at the close of the Gentile dispensation]. Now the tongues are God's sign of impending disaster, even as they were when they appeared upon the wall at Belshazzar's feast. Don't you know that many are going to come in the last day and say, "Lord, Lord, have we not done many wonderful works in Thy Name, even to the casting out of devils? And He will say, "Depart from Me, ye that work iniquity. I never knew you" (Matthew 7:22-23).
Under the shadow and type Judeans were free to go back to Jerusalem after a lifetime's exile following the fall of Babylon [606BC - 70 = 536BC] yet only a tiny minority returned; Babylon remained the hub of Jewish scholarship and population until around AD1200. True to type, when spiritual Israel was freed and called out from servitude to "MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH" by Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming through the revelation of the Seven Seals (Revelation 10:1-7; 18:4-20), most 'Christians' who heard the "shout" remained in Judaeo-Roman servitude with their mark of the beast" (Luke 9:62; Titus 3:9-11; Revelation 13:15-18). Of those who "came out of her," few entered into Him by the baptism with the Holy Spirit.
Since the Church Ages ended in 1963 it has taken God 54 years "to get [the apostate Gentile nations and churches] into the condition to where that He could have them destroyed with all nations." Now the world's sole "exceptional" nation is apostate, motherless broke, mortgaged to Jewry's international banksters, her productive economy and jobs expatriated to the third world, her mendicant Jew rulers boast "Once we squeeze all we can out of the United States, it can dry up and blow away" (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's public edict in 2002 on leaving the US prison cell of convicted CIA traitor and Mossad spy Jonathan Pollard). Talk about chutzpah! Killing worldwide in overt and covert wars; threatening Iran, China, and Russia's superior force as NATO plans its most belligerent build-up in Eastern Europe since the Cold War.
Two unarmed Russian Sukhoi SU-24 attack aircraft flew across the bow of the USS Donald Cook about 70 nautical miles from Kaliningrad at an altitude of about 90 feet, and a KA-27 Helix helicopter made seven passes around the destroyer, taking pictures. The previous March it was defenceless against an unarmed SU-24 bomber in 12 simulated attacks, and three nuclear-powered submarines belonging to Russia's 24th Submarine Division of the Northern Fleet successfully "war-gamed" the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt causing it to "flee in terror!" And in October 2015 Russia disabled the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan and the Seventh Fleet.
The Prophet declared that not only will the US lose the 'hot stage' of World War III, it will be invaded and briefly occupied; Isaiah 13:6-16 and Zechariah 14:2 assure us the Israel state will be utterly defeated and forever finished as a military power. This will cause a mass exodus of non-Semitic anti-Semitic self-styled Jews, enabling blood Israelites to return to the Land of the Covenant for their redemption (Psalm 17:7; Isaiah 6:10-13; 11:11-16; 27:13; 49:17; Jeremiah 3:12, 18; 16:15; 23:8; 31:8; Ezekiel 37:14; 39:27-29; Micah 5:3; Zechariah 10:9-12; Matthew 24:29-31; Revelation 12:14).
He said "there's three isms, Communism, Fascism, and Nazism. They'll all wind up out of Russia in Communism, and it will destroy Catholicism" (Voice of the Sign, #23:5, p. 14:116; Revelation 16:12-15; 17:11-18; 18:4-20). In the sixth of seven continuous visions in his 1933 apocalypse he saw the Judaeo-Roman Catholic church and her then Devil-incarnate Pope ruling one totalitarian world government; and following a further betrayal of Russia "I turned and looked, and I saw this United States burning like a smoulder; rocks had been blowed up. And it was burning like a heap of fire in logs or something that just set it afire; and looked as far as I could see and she'd been blown up. And then the vision left me. Five out of the seven happened."
[This cannot take place until the 144,000 elect Israelites have been sealed into the Kingdom in the second half of Daniel's Seventieth Week (Revelation 7:3-8)].
"And then I predicted . . . I never said the Lord told me that, but standing that morning in the church, I said . . . "The way progress is going on, I'll predict that the time (I don't know why I'm saying it)—but I predict that that'll all happen between right now, 1933 [when he saw the seven continuous visions], and 1977. And not knowing it, God knows my heart, I never knowed it until yesterday, that 1977 is the jubilee, and exactly the same amount of time run out that He give with Israel and everything at the end. [Three and a half years? Two days? No, forty jubilees as He said in An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 322:3-4, "Based on these seven visions, along with the rapid changes which have swept the world in the last fifty years"] . . . And here we are at the end of the age, at the coming in of the seventieth week. We don't know what time that the church will be gone. Oh, my. What can we do, friends? Where are we at?" (The Seventy Weeks of Daniel, p. 118:212-213).
Our opening scriptures have shown us that "the Old Testament is a shadow and type of things prophesied in the New" and God never changes His ways (Hebrews 10:1; 13:8). So as Moses was ordained to lead the children of Israel from Egyptian bondage to the land of promise under the first exodus, Paul was ordained to lead the Church from bondage under "the Law of sin and death" to grace and Christian liberty in the second exodus, and Brother Branham was ordained to call Christ's end-time Bride out from bondage under Rome and her apostate (once) Protestant daughters to meet her Bridegroom at His second or 'parousia' Coming in the holy convocation of the third exodus, grow to maturity in the unity of the faith, and manifest the Sons of God for translation to the eternal land of the millennium.
Moses and the Israelites found themselves trapped by Pharaoh's army between the cliffs surrounding Nuweiba beach and the Red Sea at the Gulf of Aqaba. Exodus 14:10-19: "As Pharaoh approached, the Israelites looked up and saw the Egyptians marching in pursuit; and were frantic: they cried out to the Lord and said to Moses, Is it because there are no graves in Egypt that you have taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why have you made us leave Egypt? Did we not tell you in Egypt, Leave us alone to serve the Egyptians? Better we serve the Egyptians than die in the desert. And Moses answered, Fear not, be steadfast and see how the Lord will be your salvation today. As for the Egyptians whom you see today, you will never see them again. The Lord will fight for you, just stand and watch."
"And the Lord told Moses, Why do you cry to Me? Tell the Israelites to go forward: lift up your rod and stretch out your hand over the sea; divide it so the Israelites may go through the sea on dry ground. And I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they follow them. Through Pharaoh and all his host, his chariots and his horsemen, My honour will be sustained. The Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord when My honour is advanced over Pharaoh with his chariots and his horsemen. Then the Angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, withdrew and went behind them; and the Pillar of the cloud withdrew from before them and stood behind them".
So in order for us to discern whether events are indeed "things that are to be" according to Bible prophecy, we must test them against Bible shadows and types. Brother Branham taught "No matter how sincere a man may be in doing God a service there is five musts to do God service correctly. It must be in His time and season (when He said it would be), all the types, and the things, and look where you're setting; and it must be according to His Word, and it must be given according to the person He has chosen to give it and to do it. And it must come first to His prophets (Amos 3:7); and the prophet must be a vindicated prophet.
There are three things that you must not do. You must not misinterpret the Word. You say, "Well, I believe it means this." It means just what it says. It needs no interpreter. And you must not misplace the Word. And you must not dislocate the Word. And if we would do either of these, it throws the whole Bible in a confusion and in a chaos.
Brother Branham shows us that the ministry of Moses was a shadow and type of his own ministry: "Man wants to rest and let God do the pushing. And yet Moses knew that God had anointed him for this job—to do this—and God had clearly a-vindicated his claims. It was time for the people to be delivered. God through his miracles and wonders had drawed them all together in one group (You follow me?), drawed them all together in one group, vindicated his claims. Scripture said so. Here was a sign; here was the evidence. Here everything that he said. Then he come among them as a prophet. Well, whatever he said, God honoured it, even to create and bring up flies and put things in existence. And everything that He'd promised him, here He done it. But he wanted to wait on THUS SAITH THE LORD. See?"
"He should've known that the very vindication of his call was THUS SAITH THE LORD. His job that he was ordained to was THUS SAITH THE LORD. Can you get it? Why did he wait on THUS SAITH THE LORD?"
"He wanted, "Lord, what can I do?" Here I've brought these children out here this far. Here's the circumstance: Pharaoh's coming; they're all going to die. What must I do? What must I do?"
"He had already predicted what they was going to do. He'd already told just exactly what to do. He predicted the end of the very nation he was brought up in. I hope you understand. See? [Like Moses, Brother Branham prophesied in the last of seven consecutive visions the end of the United States he was brought up in]. Moses had already said, "You'll not see them anymore. God's going to destroy them. They made fun of you long enough. God will destroy them." He'd already predicted what would happen to them" . . .
"Remember, there was a Pharaoh had raised up that didn't know Joseph, you know, in that time, right at that time. See, see? And Moses stood right up and predicted the end of the nation. And here he was right to the place where it was to be happening, and then he cries out, "What must I do, Lord? What must I do?" See?" (Why Cry, Speak! p. 31:208-214).
Following the shadow and type when Brother Branham prophesied the seven continuous visions in 1933, a pharaoh who did not know our Joseph, Jesus Christ, was ruling the United States of America: F. D. Roosevelt. And there has since been a succession of such [Jewish] pharaohs in the White House, Judaeo-Roman president John Kennedy, succeeded by mostly Jewish presidents who did not know our Joseph.
In 1961 Brother Branham said, "[Elijah] is prophesied to come again just before the great and the second Coming of the Lord. In Malachi the fourth chapter and Revelations also the third chapter tells us that he will be here in the last days, that same one that'll stand in the breach for the people with a little flock that God will give him. He'll come in the last days. God said so. He'll be a sign to this Gentile nation that her time is no more (Revelation 10:6). And remember, when he appears on the scene, the time is at hand. Let's pray for God to send him. Time is at hand."
"As soon as his ministry [John the Baptist, the Elijah of Malachi 3] was finished, Messiah showed Himself. As soon as this great one [the Elijah of Malachi 4] will come in the last days will finish his ministry, the Messiah will show Himself. It'll be so. The time is at hand, so we better pray. You better start praying."
"His God-given sign to this Age [Hebrews 4:12] will prove what He is. Everybody will know it. God will vindicate it. He'll show signs and wonders like never been done on the earth by Him. . . Let the people fall on their face today and start crying out to God and watch what happens. You'll see him show up in power. . . "How will we know that this will be the right one? How do we know?" God tells us we'll know him. What will he do? He'll be turning the hearts of the children back to the original Pentecostal Message at the beginning. Oh, my. A sign that's overlooked, the real sign, and they miss it. They always do. Back to the true church, the true Message" (A True Sign That's Overlooked, p. 29:180-186).
We have explained in previous services that throughout the Book of Revelation John represents Christ's end-time Bride. We know this is so because the Book was sealed throughout the Church Ages. The PART-Word saints were complete when the Laodicean Church Age ended, and in Revelation 4:1-2 all of Christ's end-time Bride was caught up to heaven. We saw that the Mercy Seat is now a Judgment Seat, and witnessed Christ open Seven Seals on March 8, 1963, then declare their revelation through His Prophet for Christ's end-time Bride from March 17-24, 1963. Together with the Bride of all Ages we were present in theophany when Jesus Christ claimed the Book and opened the Seals (Revelation 5:8-14).
So the Church is finished . . . just waiting for the last members of Christ's end-time Bride to recognize their day and its Message and take their place in the Body. Brother Branham said, "the revelation of Revelation 6:1 to Revelation 19:21 is connected with the seventy of weeks . . . it takes place right here in this seventieth week. That's where it takes place" (Gabriel's Instructions to Daniel, p. 15:71, 114). These scriptures placed after Revelation chapter five will reveal the mysteries of the Seven Trumpets, Seven Vials, Three Woes, the woman in the sun, and the casting out of the Red Dragon during the Great Tribulation period that introduce Israel's King Jesus with His Queen, the Bride of All Ages, to our 144,000 attendants thereby fulfilling the sixfold purpose of Gabriel's instructions to Daniel (Daniel 9:24-27; The Sixfold Purpose of Gabriel's Visit to Daniel, p. 70:134-136; The Seventieth Week of Daniel, p. 114:193).
Speaking of the jubilee Brother Branham refers to God's second Bible, the Great Pyramid of Giza built by Enoch before the Flood, mentioned in the Old and New Testaments: "Go into the Prophet's Chamber," (or Ante-Room before entering THE KING'S CHAMBER), "and watch the seven steps" (in the corbelled arch of the GRAND GALLERY) "where the guard (prophet) met the challenge to bring the comer into the presence of the King in the Seventh Step" (The Feast of Trumpets, p. 15:112; God's Only Provided Place of Worship, p. 23:217). The GREAT STEP signified the RAPTURE at the end of the Seventh Church Age (Revelation 4:1-2).
The top of this step is on the 50th course of masonry, which represents the jubilant JUBILEE [(The Seventy Weeks of Daniel, p. 131:197. "Jubilee means the going up, the release)]. This step is some three feet high. In going up THE GRAND GALLERY, each inch represents a year. At the end we come to this Great Step. This was the year of Brother Branham's birth. [Brother Ungren] personally talked with him about this. Thirty-six inches up the face of the Great Step is the plane of the Second Advent. This was several months before his commission by the Angel in the cave at 14-mile road. It is on this step that a guard meets the oncomer of the Church Ages. This guard helps the person up the 3 foot step to the 50th course level. This guard would represent the end time eagle-prophet who has the Rapture Message to lift a believer up to the King's level.
The start of the Grand Gallery represents the beginning of the Christian dispensation around AD30. The total length of the Grand Gallery is about 1881 Pyramid Inches, showing that the birth of Brother Branham in 1909 is at the entrance of the Prophet's Chamber in the Pyramid.
The Prophet enters the Prophet's Chamber in 1909 and years later the Lord reveals to him His Message. The Great Step is the "little introduction plank" Brother Branham mentions (God's only Provided Place of Worship, p. 33:217). The Great Step starts at 1909 at point 'A'; rises to 1946 at point 'B.' [Remember the Jewish people was declared a nation [at Lake Success by the UNSCOP Committee on April, May 6 (UN docs. A/C.I/P.V.46-57 (May 6-13)] on May 6, on 1946, and the Angel of the Lord appeared to me on May 7, 1946 at Green's Mill, Indiana . . . come into the room where I was at, a Man walking. He didn't have wings; He was just a big man, had a white garment down to His feet. And He said that I was born to pray for sick people. And I told Him I was uneducated, illiterate, and I wasn't able to go. He said I'd be praying for kings and monarchs, and Message around the world, a Message that would bring the second Coming of Christ was near . . . THUS SAITH THE LORD, I said, America made her final decision in 1946. Watch, since then. She's gone, and there's nothing left but judgment and chaos (The Handwriting on the Wall, #58-0309)]. The oncomer of the Church Ages is led by the prophet into the Prophet's Chamber at point 'C,' around 1977 (1909 +68). The distance of 68 inches under the Great Step is included twice: it is included in the 1881 inches of the total length of the Grand Gallery and it is included in the Great Step.
Brother Branham speaks of the end time eagle-prophet in his Message the Future Home of the Heavenly Bridegoom and the Earthly Bride: "There is another measure, the pyramid that proves it. This, being this a way, would answer exactly Enoch's sign in Egypt, the Pyramid (Isaiah 19:19-20) . . . Enoch, before the antediluvian destruction, when justification was coming in, he brought forth a sign, and in this Pyramid is seven steps going to the King's Chamber. Watch on the Seventh Step, if you ever studied the dimensions of the Pyramid, what comes out to take the oncomer, to introduce to the King. Watch whose station that is standing there, and you'll see the day you're living in the Pyramid" (p. 44:371-373).
On this 50th course level we come to the Prophet's Chamber. To enter this closet (the Ante-Chamber) one must stoop down. Inside is a Granite Leaf. On its face is a projected figure of an inch which is called "THE BOSS"; because it is the key to the lineal measurement of the galleries in the Pyramid of one inch to the year. Actually, it is the Seventh SEAL as the Lord revealed it to me. It is as illustrated below. The stone material is all amber-coloured granite, which represents the Pillar of Fire.
In Egyptian hieroglyphics I found, from "The Book of the Dead," the meanings in this unusual figure they called the "Boss".
There is a halo or nimbus over the top.
A full loaf of bread is represented, meaning a complete revelation.
The hill of sunrise, a new day had dawned.
The Alpha and Omega symbols incorporated in the figure.
The appearing of the glory of God.
And a rainbow.
It also projects out one inch from the Granite Leaf and is offset from the center by one inch representing the displacement factor. This factor is there because it shows there is an imperfection. Because the cross should never have been, had Satan never rebelled which brought about the fall of himself and mankind (Pastor Morris R. Ungren, The Mount of God, The Story of the Great Pyramid, p. 12-15).
Regarding the seventieth Jubilee we read in Joshua 4:22-24 "Then you shall inform your children, saying, Israel crossed this Jordan on dry ground. For the Lord your God dried up the waters of the Jordan before you until you had crossed, just as the Lord your God had done to the Red Sea, which He dried up before us until we had crossed; that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the Lord is mighty, so that you may fear the Lord your God forever".
And in Zechariah 10:1-12, "I will sow them among the people: and they shall remember me in far countries; and they shall live with their children, and return again. I will bring back out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria; and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon until no room can be found for them. And the Lord will pass through the sea of distress and shall smite the waves in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile will dry up: and the pride of Assyria will be brought down, and the sceptre of Egypt will depart. And I will strengthen them in the Lord; and in His Name they will walk, says the Lord" (Zechariah 14:4-5; Isaiah 18:3-4 – 19:25; 11:11-16; 27:12-13).
The spies were sent from Kadesh in the second year after the Exodus, Caleb was thirty-eight (40 – 2 = 38) at the 1491BC departure from Egypt. Caleb declares he was eighty-five when the land of Canaan was divided among the twelve tribes (Joshua 11:23; 14:10), hence he was 40 at Kadesh, in the second year after the Exodus + 38 years of the 40 in the wilderness = 78 at the crossing of Jordan. The wars with the various Canaanite nations lasted seven years 85 – 78 = 7 (Joshua 11:18), and since the crossing of Jordan took place in 1451BC the land was divided in 1444BC (1451 – 7 = 1444) "and had rest from war" (Joshua 11:23; 14:7, 10, 15).
The jubilee cycle commenced from 1451BC when the children of Israel entered Canaan. The first Jubilee year was forty-nine years later from Tishri 10, 1402BC to Tishri 10, 1401BC. Every forty-nine years another Jubilee has occurred. It is essential we bear in mind that Israel's jubilees run from Tishri 10 to Tishri 10, that is, from September/October in one Gregory year to September/October in the following Gregory year because their years cross our years. Thus their year Nisan 1 (April 1), 1976 to Nisan 1 (March 20), 1977 was a sabbatical year, and Tishri 10, (September 22) 1977 to Tishri 10 (October 11), 1978 was the actual fiftieth or jubilee year.
This diagram (copyright©E.C. Gedge) illustrates how the fiftieth or jubilee year is not cronoV (chronos) time but kairoV (kairos) time that overlies the calendar years from Tishri 10 (four months twenty days) in the forty-ninth year to Tishri 9 (seven months ten days) in the first year of the next forty-nine year cycle. The red band at the foot of the forty-ninth year indicates that it is a sabbatical year from Nisan 1 to Nisan 1. All years in the forty-nine year cycles run from Nisan 1 to Nisan 1. Our Pentecostal Jubilee will be the waving of Christ's end-time Bride as two wheaten loaves baked with leaven in the manifestation of the Sons of God while the Church Age saints are being resurrected in their glorified bodies prior to our translation.
Every seventh year was a sabbatical year running Nisan to Nisan (March/April). The year of Jubilee was announced at the close of the Day of Atonement in the forty-ninth year of the week of years. This fiftieth year ran from Tishri 10 (September/October) in the forty-ninth year to Tishri 10 (September/October) in the first year of the succeeding sabbatical cycle of forty-nine years. These weeks of years commenced in 1451BC, the year Israel entered Canaan (Leviticus 25:8). The first Jubilee ran from Tishri 10, 1402BC to Tishri 10, 1401BC.
The Exodus commenced on Nisan 15, 1491BC. Moses died a year and a half after Mount Sinai and thirty-eight years after leading Israel in their wandering in the wilderness following their apostasy at Kadesh-barnea in the second year after the Exodus (Deuteronomy 2:14), and Joshua brought the children of Israel across Jordan during the Spring floods into Canaan on the tenth day of Abib/Nisan, 1451BC and encamped at Gilgal (Joshua 4:19).
In Newsletter 924 we mentioned that the first Passover meal initiated the seven days of Unleavened Bread: "It came to pass the self-same day, that the Lord brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies" (Exodus 12:29-51). In Exodus 13:1-10, Moses prophesied that on Nisan 15 (the following year God intended) Israel observe their second Passover meal and first day of Unleavened Bread on the border of the Promised Land. Deuteronomy 1:2 states: "It is eleven day's journey from Horeb by way of Mount Seir [Edom] to Kadesh-barnea [on Judah's boundary]." There the adult Israelites rejected the Holy Spirit and were blotted from the Book of Life, and not until forty years would a new generation observe the feast of Passover in Canaan (Joshua 5:19 – 6:11).
Had Israel journeyed from Sinai to the border of the Promised Land in eleven days they would have crossed the Jordan to Jericho on Pentecost one-year after their arrival at Mount Sinai as God had intended. Israel was to have crossed over into the Promised Land on Pentecost morning, departing Mount Sinai on Iyyar 20 and arriving on Sivan 1, the anniversary of their arrival at Sinai the previous year. We know this because "eleven days" (Deuteronomy 1:2) is a precise number. This leads us to speculate three day's sanctification before the crossing (as in Exodus 19:14-16, and ultimately Joshua 3:1-5; 4:19) exactly one year after the Sinai Covenant.
Ours is a Pentecostal Jubilee, for by grace through faith we received our Day of Atonement as Attributes of the Word or Logos in Christ on Calvary and are accounted crucified, raised and glorified in Him (II Corinthians 5:13-21; Colossians 3:3-4). "For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He did predestinate, them He also called: and whom He called, them He also justified: and whom He justified, them He also glorified" (Romans 8:29-30).
The Prophet said, "When you begin to see the year of Jubilee, where we don't have to fuss and strain and pull like this, but we're already secured in Christ . . . What a beautiful story . . . I want to get these Seventy Weeks of Daniel and tie it right in here, and show it where it takes it to the Pentecostal Jubilee, and brings it right back with those Seven Seals to opened here just before we go, and show that it's at the end" (Revelation, Chapter Five, #II, p. 779:181-182, 216).
By the grace of Almighty God we have seen the jubilee year and know who we are. nl925.htm
Hebrews 10:1, "The Law has a shadow of good things to come and not the very image of those things . . ." And,
Hebrews 13:8, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever".
On these two principles God's Prophet William Branham followed the example of Judah's prophet in Daniel 9:1-19. After the expiration of sixty-eight of the prophesied seventy-years desolation of Jerusalem Daniel "made his confession of his people and his confession of himself. He wanted to be sure that he found out when they were to go back, because he wanted to get the people ready to go back. Now, what I'm trying to do, is find out when we're going up, and get the people ready to go up, that we're ready. And we've set our face to God through prayers and supplications to find out, "Lord, what's the hour we're living in?" (The Sixfold Purpose of Gabriel's Visit to Daniel p. 45:39; Jeremiah 29:10).
Brother Branham explained: "In the fourth chapter [Revelation 4:1-2] John [who represents every member of Christ's end-time Bride] was caught up immediately after the Church [Ages ended in Revelation 3:22]. John, going up, he saw the complete Church Age. There's where I'd like to stop just a second to say that many peoples who are expecting some great, tremendous, powerful something to happen in the Gentile Age are certainly wrong. The Church Age and all that will happen during the Gentile reign is recorded from Revelation 1 to Revelation 3, inclusive. Then the Church was raptured and taken up, and the rest of this unto the 19th chapter is what happens to the
The 'rapture,' precious Brethren, is a revelation.
Seventy years is a lifespan and since Daniel was transported to Babylon as a young man, the generation of his seniors would have expired as the Laodicean saints in the circle of this Message have passed on. In response to Daniel's prayer the Angel Gabriel informed him, "Seventy weeks [of years] is [yet] determined upon your people and upon your holy city . . . until the consummation" of life (Daniel 9:27). These 490 360-day prophetic years commenced from the edict of Persia's King Cyrus on Nisan 14, 445BC to restore and build Jerusalem (Nehemiah 2). In seven weeks or 49 (360-day) prophetic years her streets and walls would be rebuilt despite troublous times. Within sixty-two weeks (434 prophetic years) Messiah would come, thereafter He would be executed with no cause found against Him, leaving one week of 7 prophetic years.
Brother Branham said, "I want to stop right here just a moment and explain this. That when they rejected the Messiah was when they . . . rejected Jesus as Saviour and crucified Him. You remember over here what the Bible said: "And He shall be cut off, but not for Himself, Messiah, the Prince . . ." (Daniel 9:26; John 11:50). Now, think how close that prophecy hit. I want to get this drilled into you, that if that prophecy hit exactly to the date, exactly to the time, and exactly the way it said it would, this one weeks left [of 7] years will hit exactly according to the Scripture."
"Now, remember, He was cut off: Messiah. "Now, my missionary brother, that was to the Jews, a precious dear brother here somewhere, here's what I want you to catch and understand. See, God quit dealing with the Jews right there, because God always deals with Israel as a nation. We all know that. Israel is a nation. Gentiles are a people. And He had to take a people out of the Gentiles for His Name [Matthew 16:19; Acts 10:19-48; 15:14] . . . we have went through in the Gentile time, from the crucifixion of Christ until the end of the Church Ages . . . we've been through it all down. Now, we're getting to a place where we can . . . go into the Seven Seals, Seven Vials, Seven Trumpets, and all that it pictures together, all dealing with the Jews and God's judgment to the people upon the earth, and the remnant . . ." (The Seventieth week of Daniel, p. 94:98-102).
On the diagram you will note an extension of time from the opening of the Seven Seals after the close of the Laodicean Church Age in 1963 when Christ's Mediation is fulfilled and Redemption is over. Neither His end-time Bride (nor the elect Israelites) require mediation for ignorance, as we are predestinated to recognize the mystery of the Seven Seals or Seven Trumpet mysteries. Thus we were fully redeemed in Christ on Calvary and born-again by the Word for our day which is the equivalent of hearing one's name called from the Lamb's Book of Life (John 10:1-5; II Peter 1:12; I John 1:7).
Brother Branham explained, "Each Seal broken in the Word of God reveals to the man of the age what age we're living in, the spirit of the age, the church of the age. Revelations 10, at the end when the last Seal was broke, we find the Angel standing with one foot on the land and one on the sea, with His hands up to heaven, and a rainbow over His head, swearing by Him that lives forever and ever, that time has run out on the last Seal. And you wait till we get in them Seals and see where that Seal's at. After you find the seventy of weeks, then see where the Seals are. Time has run out. Redemption is over. He is now the Lion and the Judge. He's your Saviour this morning, but one day He'll be your Judge".
"The 8th through the 14th verse of the fifth chapter reveals the time for the Lamb to be worshipped both in heaven and in earth, the Seven Sealed Book, the worthy Lamb, the Kinsman Redeemer. And from the 8th verse through the 14th, Angels worship Him, elders worship Him, living creatures worship Him, and John worshipped Him so much till he said, "Every creature in heaven, in the earth, underneath the earth heard me saying, Blessing, glory, power, wisdom, might be to the Lamb." The worship time for the King Lamb [the holy convocation of the antitype of the fiftieth day of Israel's Pentecostal feast]" (Gabriel's Instructions to Daniel, p. 12:63-64; Leviticus 23:15-21; Revelation 5:8-14; The Revelation of the Seven Seals, p. 328:5; 500:Q23a-Q23b; 565:3-4; 578:1-3).
Brother Branham said, "Notice, way back here . . . You see this line drawed back in here [on the diagram] where never dealt with the Jews, it taken Him . . . forty years to get them into the condition to where that He could have them destroyed to all the nations . . . Look up over the top of this last Church Age. See this little extension? The Gentile days are finishing . . ." (The Seventieth Week of Daniel, p. 98:113-114).
"There is all this talk about the glossalalia—it is supposed to be the evidence of the Baptism of the Holy Ghost, and people are thinking that we are in the midst of a great revival. The revival is over. America had her last chance in 1957 [the jubilee of the Laodicean Church Age dating from the 1906 Azusa Street, Los Angeles revival plus 50 years. And because it was ignored Los Angeles will sink at the close of the Gentile dispensation]. Now the tongues are God's sign of impending disaster, even as they were when they appeared upon the wall at Belshazzar's feast. Don't you know that many are going to come in the last day and say, "Lord, Lord, have we not done many wonderful works in Thy Name, even to the casting out of devils? And He will say, "Depart from Me, ye that work iniquity. I never knew you" (Matthew 7:22-23).
Under the shadow and type Judeans were free to go back to Jerusalem after a lifetime's exile following the fall of Babylon [606BC - 70 = 536BC] yet only a tiny minority returned; Babylon remained the hub of Jewish scholarship and population until around AD1200. True to type, when spiritual Israel was freed and called out from servitude to "MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT, THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH" by Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming through the revelation of the Seven Seals (Revelation 10:1-7; 18:4-20), most 'Christians' who heard the "shout" remained in Judaeo-Roman servitude with their mark of the beast" (Luke 9:62; Titus 3:9-11; Revelation 13:15-18). Of those who "came out of her," few entered into Him by the baptism with the Holy Spirit.
Since the Church Ages ended in 1963 it has taken God 54 years "to get [the apostate Gentile nations and churches] into the condition to where that He could have them destroyed with all nations." Now the world's sole "exceptional" nation is apostate, motherless broke, mortgaged to Jewry's international banksters, her productive economy and jobs expatriated to the third world, her mendicant Jew rulers boast "Once we squeeze all we can out of the United States, it can dry up and blow away" (Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu's public edict in 2002 on leaving the US prison cell of convicted CIA traitor and Mossad spy Jonathan Pollard). Talk about chutzpah! Killing worldwide in overt and covert wars; threatening Iran, China, and Russia's superior force as NATO plans its most belligerent build-up in Eastern Europe since the Cold War.
Two unarmed Russian Sukhoi SU-24 attack aircraft flew across the bow of the USS Donald Cook about 70 nautical miles from Kaliningrad at an altitude of about 90 feet, and a KA-27 Helix helicopter made seven passes around the destroyer, taking pictures. The previous March it was defenceless against an unarmed SU-24 bomber in 12 simulated attacks, and three nuclear-powered submarines belonging to Russia's 24th Submarine Division of the Northern Fleet successfully "war-gamed" the aircraft carrier USS Theodore Roosevelt causing it to "flee in terror!" And in October 2015 Russia disabled the aircraft carrier USS Ronald Reagan and the Seventh Fleet.
The Prophet declared that not only will the US lose the 'hot stage' of World War III, it will be invaded and briefly occupied; Isaiah 13:6-16 and Zechariah 14:2 assure us the Israel state will be utterly defeated and forever finished as a military power. This will cause a mass exodus of non-Semitic anti-Semitic self-styled Jews, enabling blood Israelites to return to the Land of the Covenant for their redemption (Psalm 17:7; Isaiah 6:10-13; 11:11-16; 27:13; 49:17; Jeremiah 3:12, 18; 16:15; 23:8; 31:8; Ezekiel 37:14; 39:27-29; Micah 5:3; Zechariah 10:9-12; Matthew 24:29-31; Revelation 12:14).
He said "there's three isms, Communism, Fascism, and Nazism. They'll all wind up out of Russia in Communism, and it will destroy Catholicism" (Voice of the Sign, #23:5, p. 14:116; Revelation 16:12-15; 17:11-18; 18:4-20). In the sixth of seven continuous visions in his 1933 apocalypse he saw the Judaeo-Roman Catholic church and her then Devil-incarnate Pope ruling one totalitarian world government; and following a further betrayal of Russia "I turned and looked, and I saw this United States burning like a smoulder; rocks had been blowed up. And it was burning like a heap of fire in logs or something that just set it afire; and looked as far as I could see and she'd been blown up. And then the vision left me. Five out of the seven happened."
[This cannot take place until the 144,000 elect Israelites have been sealed into the Kingdom in the second half of Daniel's Seventieth Week (Revelation 7:3-8)].
"And then I predicted . . . I never said the Lord told me that, but standing that morning in the church, I said . . . "The way progress is going on, I'll predict that the time (I don't know why I'm saying it)—but I predict that that'll all happen between right now, 1933 [when he saw the seven continuous visions], and 1977. And not knowing it, God knows my heart, I never knowed it until yesterday, that 1977 is the jubilee, and exactly the same amount of time run out that He give with Israel and everything at the end. [Three and a half years? Two days? No, forty jubilees as He said in An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 322:3-4, "Based on these seven visions, along with the rapid changes which have swept the world in the last fifty years"] . . . And here we are at the end of the age, at the coming in of the seventieth week. We don't know what time that the church will be gone. Oh, my. What can we do, friends? Where are we at?" (The Seventy Weeks of Daniel, p. 118:212-213).
Our opening scriptures have shown us that "the Old Testament is a shadow and type of things prophesied in the New" and God never changes His ways (Hebrews 10:1; 13:8). So as Moses was ordained to lead the children of Israel from Egyptian bondage to the land of promise under the first exodus, Paul was ordained to lead the Church from bondage under "the Law of sin and death" to grace and Christian liberty in the second exodus, and Brother Branham was ordained to call Christ's end-time Bride out from bondage under Rome and her apostate (once) Protestant daughters to meet her Bridegroom at His second or 'parousia' Coming in the holy convocation of the third exodus, grow to maturity in the unity of the faith, and manifest the Sons of God for translation to the eternal land of the millennium.
Moses and the Israelites found themselves trapped by Pharaoh's army between the cliffs surrounding Nuweiba beach and the Red Sea at the Gulf of Aqaba. Exodus 14:10-19: "As Pharaoh approached, the Israelites looked up and saw the Egyptians marching in pursuit; and were frantic: they cried out to the Lord and said to Moses, Is it because there are no graves in Egypt that you have taken us away to die in the wilderness? Why have you made us leave Egypt? Did we not tell you in Egypt, Leave us alone to serve the Egyptians? Better we serve the Egyptians than die in the desert. And Moses answered, Fear not, be steadfast and see how the Lord will be your salvation today. As for the Egyptians whom you see today, you will never see them again. The Lord will fight for you, just stand and watch." "And the Lord told Moses, Why do you cry to Me? Tell the Israelites to go forward: lift up your rod and stretch out your hand over the sea; divide it so the Israelites may go through the sea on dry ground. And I will harden the hearts of the Egyptians so that they follow them. Through Pharaoh and all his host, his chariots and his horsemen, My honour will be sustained. The Egyptians shall know that I am the Lord when My honour is advanced over Pharaoh with his chariots and his horsemen. Then the Angel of God, who went before the camp of Israel, withdrew and went behind them; and the Pillar of the cloud withdrew from before them and stood behind them".
So in order for us to discern whether events are indeed "things that are to be" according to Bible prophecy, we must test them against Bible shadows and types. Brother Branham taught "No matter how sincere a man may be in doing God a service there is five musts to do God service correctly. It must be in His time and season (when He said it would be), all the types, and the things, and look where you're setting; and it must be according to His Word, and it must be given according to the person He has chosen to give it and to do it. And it must come first to His prophets (Amos 3:7); and the prophet must be a vindicated prophet.
There are three things that you must not do. You must not misinterpret the Word. You say, "Well, I believe it means this." It means just what it says. It needs no interpreter. And you must not misplace the Word. And you must not dislocate the Word. And if we would do either of these, it throws the whole Bible in a confusion and in a chaos.
Brother Branham shows us that the ministry of Moses was a shadow and type of his own ministry: "Man wants to rest and let God do the pushing. And yet Moses knew that God had anointed him for this job—to do this—and God had clearly a-vindicated his claims. It was time for the people to be delivered. God through his miracles and wonders had drawed them all together in one group (You follow me?), drawed them all together in one group, vindicated his claims. Scripture said so. Here was a sign; here was the evidence. Here everything that he said. Then he come among them as a prophet. Well, whatever he said, God honoured it, even to create and bring up flies and put things in existence. And everything that He'd promised him, here He done it. But he wanted to wait on THUS SAITH THE LORD. See?"
"He should've known that the very vindication of his call was THUS SAITH THE LORD. His job that he was ordained to was THUS SAITH THE LORD. Can you get it? Why did he wait on THUS SAITH THE LORD?"
"He wanted, "Lord, what can I do?" Here I've brought these children out here this far. Here's the circumstance: Pharaoh's coming; they're all going to die. What must I do? What must I do?"
"He had already predicted what they was going to do. He'd already told just exactly what to do. He predicted the end of the very nation he was brought up in. I hope you understand. See? [Like Moses, Brother Branham prophesied in the last of seven consecutive visions the end of the United States he was brought up in]. Moses had already said, "You'll not see them anymore. God's going to destroy them. They made fun of you long enough. God will destroy them." He'd already predicted what would happen to them" . . .
"Remember, there was a Pharaoh had raised up that didn't know Joseph, you know, in that time, right at that time. See, see? And Moses stood right up and predicted the end of the nation. And here he was right to the place where it was to be happening, and then he cries out, "What must I do, Lord? What must I do?" See?" (Why Cry, Speak! p. 31:208-214).
Following the shadow and type when Brother Branham prophesied the seven continuous visions in 1933, a pharaoh who did not know our Joseph, Jesus Christ, was ruling the United States of America: F. D. Roosevelt. And there has since been a succession of such [Jewish] pharaohs in the White House, Judaeo-Roman president John Kennedy, succeeded by mostly Jewish presidents who did not know our Joseph.
In 1961 Brother Branham said, "[Elijah] is prophesied to come again just before the great and the second Coming of the Lord. In Malachi the fourth chapter and Revelations also the third chapter tells us that he will be here in the last days, that same one that'll stand in the breach for the people with a little flock that God will give him. He'll come in the last days. God said so. He'll be a sign to this Gentile nation that her time is no more (Revelation 10:6). And remember, when he appears on the scene, the time is at hand. Let's pray for God to send him. Time is at hand."
"As soon as his ministry [John the Baptist, the Elijah of Malachi 3] was finished, Messiah showed Himself. As soon as this great one [the Elijah of Malachi 4] will come in the last days will finish his ministry, the Messiah will show Himself. It'll be so. The time is at hand, so we better pray. You better start praying."
"His God-given sign to this Age [Hebrews 4:12] will prove what He is. Everybody will know it. God will vindicate it. He'll show signs and wonders like never been done on the earth by Him. . . Let the people fall on their face today and start crying out to God and watch what happens. You'll see him show up in power. . . "How will we know that this will be the right one? How do we know?" God tells us we'll know him. What will he do? He'll be turning the hearts of the children back to the original Pentecostal Message at the beginning. Oh, my. A sign that's overlooked, the real sign, and they miss it. They always do. Back to the true church, the true Message" (A True Sign That's Overlooked, p. 29:180-186).
We have explained in previous services that throughout the Book of Revelation John represents Christ's end-time Bride. We know this is so because the Book was sealed throughout the Church Ages. The PART-Word saints were complete when the Laodicean Church Age ended, and in Revelation 4:1-2 all of Christ's end-time Bride was caught up to heaven. We saw that the Mercy Seat is now a Judgment Seat, and witnessed Christ open Seven Seals on March 8, 1963, then declare their revelation through His Prophet for Christ's end-time Bride from March 17-24, 1963. Together with the Bride of all Ages we were present in theophany when Jesus Christ claimed the Book and opened the Seals (Revelation 5:8-14).
So the Church is finished . . . just waiting for the last members of Christ's end-time Bride to recognize their day and its Message and take their place in the Body. Brother Branham said, "the revelation of Revelation 6:1 to Revelation 19:21 is connected with the seventy of weeks . . . it takes place right here in this seventieth week. That's where it takes place" (Gabriel's Instructions to Daniel, p. 15:71, 114). These scriptures placed after Revelation chapter five will reveal the mysteries of the Seven Trumpets, Seven Vials, Three Woes, the woman in the sun, and the casting out of the Red Dragon during the Great Tribulation period that introduce Israel's King Jesus with His Queen, the Bride of All Ages, to our 144,000 attendants thereby fulfilling the sixfold purpose of Gabriel's instructions to Daniel (Daniel 9:24-27; The Sixfold Purpose of Gabriel's Visit to Daniel, p. 70:134-136; The Seventieth Week of Daniel, p. 114:193).
Speaking of the jubilee Brother Branham refers to God's second Bible, the Great Pyramid of Giza built by Enoch before the Flood, mentioned in the Old and New Testaments: "Go into the Prophet's Chamber," (or Ante-Room before entering THE KING'S CHAMBER), "and watch the seven steps" (in the corbelled arch of the GRAND GALLERY) "where the guard (prophet) met the challenge to bring the comer into the presence of the King in the Seventh Step" (The Feast of Trumpets, p. 15:112; God's Only Provided Place of Worship, p. 23:217). The GREAT STEP signified the RAPTURE at the end of the Seventh Church Age (Revelation 4:1-2).The top of this step is on the 50th course of masonry, which represents the jubilant JUBILEE [(The Seventy Weeks of Daniel, p. 131:197. "Jubilee means the going up, the release)]. This step is some three feet high. In going up THE GRAND GALLERY, each inch represents a year. At the end we come to this Great Step. This was the year of Brother Branham's birth. [Brother Ungren] personally talked with him about this. Thirty-six inches up the face of the Great Step is the plane of the Second Advent. This was several months before his commission by the Angel in the cave at 14-mile road. It is on this step that a guard meets the oncomer of the Church Ages. This guard helps the person up the 3 foot step to the 50th course level. This guard would represent the end time eagle-prophet who has the Rapture Message to lift a believer up to the King's level.
The start of the Grand Gallery represents the beginning of the Christian dispensation around AD30. The total length of the Grand Gallery is about 1881 Pyramid Inches, showing that the birth of Brother Branham in 1909 is at the entrance of the Prophet's Chamber in the Pyramid.
The Prophet enters the Prophet's Chamber in 1909 and years later the Lord reveals to him His Message. The Great Step is the "little introduction plank" Brother Branham mentions (God's only Provided Place of Worship, p. 33:217). The Great Step starts at 1909 at point 'A'; rises to 1946 at point 'B.' [Remember the Jewish people was declared a nation [at Lake Success by the UNSCOP Committee on April, May 6 (UN docs. A/C.I/P.V.46-57 (May 6-13)] on May 6, on 1946, and the Angel of the Lord appeared to me on May 7, 1946 at Green's Mill, Indiana . . . come into the room where I was at, a Man walking. He didn't have wings; He was just a big man, had a white garment down to His feet. And He said that I was born to pray for sick people. And I told Him I was uneducated, illiterate, and I wasn't able to go. He said I'd be praying for kings and monarchs, and Message around the world, a Message that would bring the second Coming of Christ was near . . . THUS SAITH THE LORD, I said, America made her final decision in 1946. Watch, since then. She's gone, and there's nothing left but judgment and chaos (The Handwriting on the Wall, #58-0309)]. The oncomer of the Church Ages is led by the prophet into the Prophet's Chamber at point 'C,' around 1977 (1909 +68). The distance of 68 inches under the Great Step is included twice: it is included in the 1881 inches of the total length of the Grand Gallery and it is included in the Great Step. Brother Branham speaks of the end time eagle-prophet in his Message the Future Home of the Heavenly Bridegoom and the Earthly Bride: "There is another measure, the pyramid that proves it. This, being this a way, would answer exactly Enoch's sign in Egypt, the Pyramid (Isaiah 19:19-20) . . . Enoch, before the antediluvian destruction, when justification was coming in, he brought forth a sign, and in this Pyramid is seven steps going to the King's Chamber. Watch on the Seventh Step, if you ever studied the dimensions of the Pyramid, what comes out to take the oncomer, to introduce to the King. Watch whose station that is standing there, and you'll see the day you're living in the Pyramid" (p. 44:371-373).
On this 50th course level we come to the Prophet's Chamber. To enter this closet (the Ante-Chamber) one must stoop down. Inside is a Granite Leaf. On its face is a projected figure of an inch which is called "THE BOSS"; because it is the key to the lineal measurement of the galleries in the Pyramid of one inch to the year. Actually, it is the Seventh SEAL as the Lord revealed it to me. It is as illustrated below. The stone material is all amber-coloured granite, which represents the Pillar of Fire.
In Egyptian hieroglyphics I found, from "The Book of the Dead," the meanings in this unusual figure they called the "Boss". There is a halo or nimbus over the top.
A full loaf of bread is represented, meaning a complete revelation.
The hill of sunrise, a new day had dawned.
The Alpha and Omega symbols incorporated in the figure.
The appearing of the glory of God. And a rainbow.
It also projects out one inch from the Granite Leaf and is offset from the center by one inch representing the displacement factor. This factor is there because it shows there is an imperfection. Because the cross should never have been, had Satan never rebelled which brought about the fall of himself and mankind (Pastor Morris R. Ungren, The Mount of God, The Story of the Great Pyramid, p. 12-15).
Regarding the seventieth Jubilee we read in Joshua 4:22-24 "Then you shall inform your children, saying, Israel crossed this Jordan on dry ground. For the Lord your God dried up the waters of the Jordan before you until you had crossed, just as the Lord your God had done to the Red Sea, which He dried up before us until we had crossed; that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the Lord is mighty, so that you may fear the Lord your God forever".
And in Zechariah 10:1-12, "I will sow them among the people: and they shall remember me in far countries; and they shall live with their children, and return again. I will bring back out of the land of Egypt, and gather them out of Assyria; and I will bring them into the land of Gilead and Lebanon until no room can be found for them. And the Lord will pass through the sea of distress and shall smite the waves in the sea, and all the depths of the Nile will dry up: and the pride of Assyria will be brought down, and the sceptre of Egypt will depart. And I will strengthen them in the Lord; and in His Name they will walk, says the Lord" (Zechariah 14:4-5; Isaiah 18:3-4 – 19:25; 11:11-16; 27:12-13).
The spies were sent from Kadesh in the second year after the Exodus, Caleb was thirty-eight (40 – 2 = 38) at the 1491BC departure from Egypt. Caleb declares he was eighty-five when the land of Canaan was divided among the twelve tribes (Joshua 11:23; 14:10), hence he was 40 at Kadesh, in the second year after the Exodus + 38 years of the 40 in the wilderness = 78 at the crossing of Jordan. The wars with the various Canaanite nations lasted seven years 85 – 78 = 7 (Joshua 11:18), and since the crossing of Jordan took place in 1451BC the land was divided in 1444BC (1451 – 7 = 1444) "and had rest from war" (Joshua 11:23; 14:7, 10, 15).
The jubilee cycle commenced from 1451BC when the children of Israel entered Canaan. The first Jubilee year was forty-nine years later from Tishri 10, 1402BC to Tishri 10, 1401BC. Every forty-nine years another Jubilee has occurred. It is essential we bear in mind that Israel's jubilees run from Tishri 10 to Tishri 10, that is, from September/October in one Gregory year to September/October in the following Gregory year because their years cross our years. Thus their year Nisan 1 (April 1), 1976 to Nisan 1 (March 20), 1977 was a sabbatical year, and Tishri 10, (September 22) 1977 to Tishri 10 (October 11), 1978 was the actual fiftieth or jubilee year.
This diagram (copyright©E.C. Gedge) illustrates how the fiftieth or jubilee year is not cronoV (chronos) time but kairoV (kairos) time that overlies the calendar years from Tishri 10 (four months twenty days) in the forty-ninth year to Tishri 9 (seven months ten days) in the first year of the next forty-nine year cycle. The red band at the foot of the forty-ninth year indicates that it is a sabbatical year from Nisan 1 to Nisan 1. All years in the forty-nine year cycles run from Nisan 1 to Nisan 1. Our Pentecostal Jubilee will be the waving of Christ's end-time Bride as two wheaten loaves baked with leaven in the manifestation of the Sons of God while the Church Age saints are being resurrected in their glorified bodies prior to our translation. Every seventh year was a sabbatical year running Nisan to Nisan (March/April). The year of Jubilee was announced at the close of the Day of Atonement in the forty-ninth year of the week of years. This fiftieth year ran from Tishri 10 (September/October) in the forty-ninth year to Tishri 10 (September/October) in the first year of the succeeding sabbatical cycle of forty-nine years. These weeks of years commenced in 1451BC, the year Israel entered Canaan (Leviticus 25:8). The first Jubilee ran from Tishri 10, 1402BC to Tishri 10, 1401BC.
The Exodus commenced on Nisan 15, 1491BC. Moses died a year and a half after Mount Sinai and thirty-eight years after leading Israel in their wandering in the wilderness following their apostasy at Kadesh-barnea in the second year after the Exodus (Deuteronomy 2:14), and Joshua brought the children of Israel across Jordan during the Spring floods into Canaan on the tenth day of Abib/Nisan, 1451BC and encamped at Gilgal (Joshua 4:19).
In Newsletter 924 we mentioned that the first Passover meal initiated the seven days of Unleavened Bread: "It came to pass the self-same day, that the Lord brought the children of Israel out of the land of Egypt by their armies" (Exodus 12:29-51). In Exodus 13:1-10, Moses prophesied that on Nisan 15 (the following year God intended) Israel observe their second Passover meal and first day of Unleavened Bread on the border of the Promised Land. Deuteronomy 1:2 states: "It is eleven day's journey from Horeb by way of Mount Seir [Edom] to Kadesh-barnea [on Judah's boundary]." There the adult Israelites rejected the Holy Spirit and were blotted from the Book of Life, and not until forty years would a new generation observe the feast of Passover in Canaan (Joshua 5:19 – 6:11).
Had Israel journeyed from Sinai to the border of the Promised Land in eleven days they would have crossed the Jordan to Jericho on Pentecost one-year after their arrival at Mount Sinai as God had intended. Israel was to have crossed over into the Promised Land on Pentecost morning, departing Mount Sinai on Iyyar 20 and arriving on Sivan 1, the anniversary of their arrival at Sinai the previous year. We know this because "eleven days" (Deuteronomy 1:2) is a precise number. This leads us to speculate three day's sanctification before the crossing (as in Exodus 19:14-16, and ultimately Joshua 3:1-5; 4:19) exactly one year after the Sinai Covenant.
Ours is a Pentecostal Jubilee, for by grace through faith we received our Day of Atonement as Attributes of the Word or Logos in Christ on Calvary and are accounted crucified, raised and glorified in Him (II Corinthians 5:13-21; Colossians 3:3-4). "For whom He did foreknow, He also did predestinate to be conformed to the image of His Son, that He might be the firstborn among many brethren. Moreover whom He did predestinate, them He also called: and whom He called, them He also justified: and whom He justified, them He also glorified" (Romans 8:29-30).
The Prophet said, "When you begin to see the year of Jubilee, where we don't have to fuss and strain and pull like this, but we're already secured in Christ . . . What a beautiful story . . . I want to get these Seventy Weeks of Daniel and tie it right in here, and show it where it takes it to the Pentecostal Jubilee, and brings it right back with those Seven Seals to opened here just before we go, and show that it's at the end" (Revelation, Chapter Five, #II, p. 779:181-182, 216).
By the grace of Almighty God we have seen the jubilee year and know who we are. nl925.htm
