I THESSALONIANS 4:13
13 ¶ But I would not have you to be
ignorant, brethren, concerning them which are asleep, that ye sorrow not, even
as others which have no hope.
I THESSALONIANS 4:14
14 For if we believe that Jesus died and rose
again, even so them also which sleep in Jesus will God
bring with him.
I THESSALONIANS 4:15
15 For this we say unto you by the word of the
Lord, that we which are alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord shall
not prevent them which are asleep.
I THESSALONIANS 4:16
16 For the Lord himself
shall descend from heaven with a shout, with the voice of the archangel, and
with the trump of God: and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
I THESSALONIANS 4:17
17 Then we which are alive [and] remain shall
be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and
so shall we ever be with the Lord.
SEED.NOT.HEIR.WITH.SHUCK_ JEFF.IN V-6 N-4
THURSDAY_ 65-0218
63 That's why the rapture is different and will only be for the
Royal Seed of Abraham. It cannot come by the natural, carnal seed of the
church. It'll have to be the Royal Seed of the Word of God through Abraham, the
Royal Seed. That's why the rapture has to be first, 'cause remember, "we which are alive and remain shall not hinder, prevent
those which are asleep. For the trumpet of God shall sound, the dead in Christ
shall rise first. We which are alive and remain shall be caught up with them
together and meet the Lord in the air." Notice, and again it's written,
"And the rest of the dead lived not for a thousand years."
Therefore, they're--they will not be heirs together; they'll not
be in the rapture together. There's absolutely a church natural and church
spiritual, a church carnal, a church spiritual.

101 That pyramid is so perfect, if any of you
has been there. You can't run a razor blade hardly.
The--they had no mortar in it, as far as we know. The architecture of it was so
great. Now, they lost the headstone. They don't know where it's at. Now, when
that headstone returns, it'll be just like the rest of it; it will blend in
with the stone that's left open. If you should put the headstone on it, it'd
have to be that way.
And when Jesus returns, He'll find a Church that's washed,
without spot or wrinkle, and it'll be the same ministry He had. It'll bring
back the Headstone.
WE.WOULD.SEE.JESUS_ SPOKANE.WA THURSDAY_
62-0712
E-84 "Sirs, We Would See Jesus." What
more would it be, if a man come in here with blood over him, and nail scars,
and things... Jesus, when He comes, every eye shall see Him, every knee shall
bow, and every tongue shall confess when the Body of Jesus returns. I believe
in His literal coming, corporal body, descending from the heavens with a shout,
with the voice of the
And as the church, like the pyramid, comes into a--a
point, so has the church in the days of Luther, days of Wesley, days of
Pentecostal. And now just before the Headstone comes into it, that church has
to be honed so perfect, till the same ministry that He did here, His same
Spirit, so predominant, will bring that same Body right into it, and resurrect
the whole thing. That's exactly. Amen. Glory to God.

SUNDAY_ 63-0623M
77 And now, after the Bible had been
interpreted completely, then you notice, it opened up the top of the
pyramid-like rock (Not pyramid teaching, now, not that, because I... The men
who teach that pyramid doctrine... I guess they know what they're talking
about. I know nothing about it.). But however, in--it is in the shape of a
pyramid. But the cap on the pyramid was never put on. Now, I've been in
MIGHTY.GOD.UNVEILED_ PHIL.PA V-3 N-22
MONDAY_ 64-0629
23-1 And notice, Paul said here, "Changing
from glory to glory." You see, finally it comes to its--back to its
original glory. It's just like a seed of a morning glory. The seed of a flower,
it falls into the ground. The seed of corn falls in the ground. What's the
first thing? It comes up, and it's a little sprout; then it goes to a tassel.
Then from a tassel back to its original grain.
Well, that's exactly what the church has done. It come from
Luther, Wesley, and now, back to the original grain, back to its original
glory, back to the glory it was at the beginning. The sun that rose in the east
is the same sun that's manifesting the same thing in the west, changing from
glory to glory.
It changed from the pagan down into Luther, and from Luther down
into Wesley, and from Wesley out into Pentecost, and on and on, changing from
glory to glory, producing the hidden manna. And now, it's ripe to bring Him
back exactly like He was at the beginning, His same ministry, the same Jesus, the same
power, the same Holy Ghost. The same One that come down on the day of Pentecost
is the same Holy Ghost that's manifested today: from glory, into glory, to
glory, and back to its original seed with the baptism of the Holy Ghost, with
the same signs, same wonders, same baptism, same kind of people acting the same
way, with the same power, the same sensation. It's from glory unto
glory. And the next will be changed from this glory into a body like His own glorious Body where we shall see Him. Abraham saw
the same.
MODERN.EVENTS.MADE.CLEAR.BY.PROPHECY_ SBD.CA V-7 N-6
MONDAY_ 65-1206
263 Notice now, they had done to Him just
exactly what the prophets said they would do, just as they are doing to this
very same day in the Laodicean age. If you want to
look at it, read Revelations 3: "Blind, naked, and don't know it. Turning
Christ..." When He begins to reveal Hisself into the seed form again, the same One that went
into the ground come back to be the Bride; just the Bride and the Groom is the
same flesh and blood, the same ministry, the same things, doing just exactly
what He done; the Spirit...
GOD'S.COVENANT.WITH.ABRAHAM_ SIOUX.FALLS.SD THURSDAY_

E-73 You'll stumble as sure as the world. Let
your eyes be set straight on
And when the chariot of fire come down and picked him up, Elijah
took off his mantle and throwed it back,
and Elisha took that same mantle and done a double portion with it. Elijah done eight, and he done sixteen (Hallelujah.), a very type
of Christ.
He said, "These things that I do, greater than this shall you
do, or more than this shall you do, for I go to My Father."
And when God made the covenant with Christ, Christ made
it with the Church, and the same Holy Ghost was on Christ will have to be in
the Church, or It won't go in the rapture.
FAITH_ PRINCE.ALBERT.SK WEDNESDAY_
56-0815
E-63 And brother, the only way in the world that
the covenant will ever be keeped, or be kept, is when
you and I receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost that God tore Christ apart and
sent the Holy Ghost down for you and I. The only way we'll be able to go
up in the rapture is when that body comes to receive the Spirit again, the raptured people that's in the covenant. And the covenant is
the circumcision by the baptism of the Holy Ghost, that's Abraham's seed. Amen.
Whew. I feel like shouting myself. My.
God made the promise, and He tore Christ apart at
Oh, my. Friends, when I think of it to see how perfect it is that
the Scripture lays on it. You may think I'm excited, but I'm not excited. If
you felt like I did, you'd do the same and act the same.
RESTORATION.OF.BRIDE.TREE_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-15
SUNDAY_ 62-0422
76-2 First line, justification,
sanctification, baptism of the Holy Ghost, then coming of the Cap. What is it?
That Holy Ghost bunch being honed out, so that it can fit with the same kind of
ministry He had when He went away; that when He comes back it'll catch the
whole thing in the rapture, where they're justified, sanctified, and the
baptism of the Holy Ghost. That pyramid will stand again. The house of God will
live again. The Tree of Life is growing again.
END.TIME.EVANGELISM_ JEFF.IN V-10 N-5 SUNDAY_
62-0603
222 Getting the Bride ready, that's what it is.
Now we're going to end right here by saying this. The end-time
message is to get the Bride ready and prepared for the rapture. What can it do?
According to Malachi 4, is bring them back to the
faith that was once delivered to the saints: bring them back to the faith of
the fathers, the Pentecostal part, in the restoration time. "I will
restore, saith the Lord." That's real
event--end-time evangelism.
CONVINCED.AND.THEN.CONCERNED_ CHICAGO.IL MONDAY_
62-0521
E-31 Now, John was so sure that he was going to
see the Messiah, till he said, "He's in our midst now." Now, watch.
Notice. There's a great big difference in the sign of
Jesus appearing, and then Jesus coming. There's two
different words, means two different things: the appearing of the Lord, and the
coming of the Lord.
Now, the appearing of the Lord is now, when He's appearing
in His people, His Spirit working among them, proving that it's Him with them,
getting them ready for the rapture, for the coming of the Lord to catch away
His--the Bride (See?): the appearing and the coming. All
right. Now.
Now, the thing we have to do if we can believe it, and be
concerned about it, first we've got to be convinced that it is God. Then when
we're convinced, then we are concerned. I like that. All
right.
PERSEVERANCE_ S.PINES.NC FRIDAY_
62-0608
E-93 So the church... Now, if the Headstone come in Luther's time, look what a out-of-the-way place it
would've been. Look if it come in Wesley's time. It's
got--it'll come in its own predestinated time. But the church will be honed in such a
condition until the church's ministry will be so close, and be just exactly the
same kind of ministry that Jesus had, to make it all fit together for the
rapture. Like, the head knows more than the feet. See? The eyes are more
use than the feet. The eyes is a prophet of the
church. It foresees. See? And all these things come in the head, the head part.
Now, I want to ask you a question. Excuse me, brethren. This may
be off the beaten path. But if I'm wrong, you forgive me,
and you brothers out there. I believe that the church will have to come to that spot
for the rapture to be caught up together to meet the Lord in the air. I believe
that we're living in that day, that when the church will certainly be in the
minority. It'll be a small group.
TAKE.ON.THE.WHOLE.ARMOR.OF.GOD_ SANTA.MARIA.CA SUNDAY_
62-0701
E-54 Why, it's so... Them rocks laying up there
of hundreds of tons, laying up there, it's so close
together without mortar that you can't run a razor blade between them. And when
the Headstone comes, Christ comes to His temple, it'll have to fit perfect like
the rest of it. And the ministry of the Pentecostal church will have to get so
perfect till it'll fit right in with the same ministry that He had here, which
will take the whole thing in the rapture, being the church. Right.
Now, "When the enemy comes in like a flood, He raises a
standard against it." Now, watch. In Eden He gave them His Word for their
Armor, just the Word spoke. Then the enemy came in like a flood, and He took
the Word and made it flesh to dwell among us, a little stronger. From up there
speaking, here He is walking on earth. Glory. Going to call me a holy-roller anyhow, so you might as well get
used to it now.
FOURTH.SEAL.THE_ JEFF.IN THURSDAY_
63-0321
308-5 {210} Watch Christ. First coming, He
come a mortal to bleed and die. Is that right? That's His first coming. The
second coming is the rapture. We meet Him in the skies, immortal. His third
coming, He's the incarnate God (Amen. Yeah.), God Emmanuel to reign on earth.
That's right. Only three...
Fourth stage of the rider... Watch. The fourth stage of this rider
is called death. Death means eternal separation from God. That's what death
means: to be eternal separated from God.
Now, if we place this fellow out, class... If we
have showed by the Bible who that fellow is... And we even took the
hills, the place and everywhere just exactly in detail right on down. And now,
he's called by the eagle, death. That's what He calls him.
CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-7
SUNDAY_ 63-0728
37-4 The new birth is Christ, is a revelation.
God has revealed to you this great mystery, and that's the new birth. Now, what
are you going to do when you get all that group
together, where the revelation is perfectly in harmony, and God expressing it
through His Word by the same actions, the same things that He did, making the
Word manifest? Oh, if the Church only knew its
position. It will one day. Then, the rapture will go when it knows what it is.
Now, notice. You say, "Brother Branham, but that--that
ain't..." Oh, yes, it is, too. It is the Truth.
UNITING.TIME.AND.SIGN_ JEFF.IN V-6 N-10
SUNDAY_ 63-0818
91 God is uniting His Bride. She's coming
together from the east and the west, from the north and south. There's a uniting time, and that's on right now. What's She uniting for? The rapture! Amen. God's getting Her ready. Yes, sir, uniting, what's She uniting with? With the Word. "For all heavens and earth will pass
away, but My Word shall never pass away." She's uniting Herself with THUS
SAITH THE LORD regardless of what any denomination or anybody
else says. She's uniting Herself. She's getting ready.
Why? She is the Bride. That's right. And She's united
Herself with Her Bridegroom (See?), and the Bridegroom is the Word. "In
the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
And the Word was made flesh and dwelled among us."
PERFECT.FAITH_ JEFF.IN V-6 N-11
SUNDAY_ 63-0825E
184 This is coming into that Third Pull! I--I'm
believing it. And I want to ask you a sincere
question, you that passed through the prayer line. Can you actually believe and
feel now, that there is something happened in you since you've had hands laid
on you? Raise your hand. There it is. This is what we've waited for. Now, this
is not... This is just starting to bloom now (See?), just started to bloom. I
did this for a purpose. I did this for a purpose. I'm working out something;
it's taking this charge of faith and going right back to begin and come in
(See?) to kinda raise faith in a bracket where you've
never noticed it that way before. Not a faith, but a perfect faith, built it up
in here. And watch a perfect God, with a perfect heart,
keep a perfect promise, by His perfect Word, which is sharper than a two-edged
sword and a Discerner of the thoughts of the heart. What? We're
coming now to the perfection, because the people has
to come to this in order for the rapture. That's what's holding it away right
now, is waiting for that church to come into that perfect raptured
faith. I'm looking for it. It means a lot of shaking down for me; it means a
lot for you; but together we'll make it by the grace of God. Amen.
WORLD.AGAIN.FALLING.APART_ SHP.LA V-17 N-4
WEDNESDAY_ 63-1127
146 But the Church of the living God, that
Bride moves right on just the same. And She'll go in the rapture by
the Word (That's right.); the Word and the Word will come together. If we're a
part of Christ, part of It, we have to be His Word,
'cause He is the Word. That's right. Yes, sir.
CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-7
SUNDAY_ 63-0728
35-3 Now, watch. He said, "Who do you say I
am?" He's asking the Church, His twelve. Out of the millions of that day,
He asked twelve, His Church.
In the millions in the days of Noah, He asked eight. See? And He
said, "As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the coming of the
Son of man (See?), where eight souls were saved." I don't say going to be
eight saved now; now don't get that all wrong. I never said that. I don't
know how many's be--going to be saved in
that--that--that's--that last moment to rapture that little group. It'll be a
small group; I'll tell you that. "For strait is the gate and narrow is the
way, but few there'll be that'll find it."
SPOKEN.WORD.ORIGINAL.SEED_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-2
SUNDAY_ 62-0318E
127-1 Now, this ministry here has to hone into a
place till the very same works that Jesus did... Because when He comes, the Headstone will
catch right into it, because they won't... There'll be a rapture come, and
they'll be taken, and the rest of the body will come with it; and she'll be
gone into heaven. Not a denomination, friends; a church of the Word of God... You
believe it? Here's some handkerchiefs here.
