ISSN 1442-8660Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ.
This week we wrap up our series on the Sixth Trumpet of Revelation with a resume of Israel's Seven Trumpet mysteries inasmuch as I understand them.
I would like to thank Brethren who lovingly wrote last week wishing us Easter blessings. As a Christian Church we do not celebrate Easter. The Easter celebrated in the Bible by king Herod was the worship of Nimrod's deified wife Semiramis as Ishtar, Astarte queen of heaven, from whom the Judaeo-Roman church borrowed the forty days abstinence they call Lent. Rome introduced this pagan festival into Christendom after it impersonated Israel's Passover. The celebration of Easter/Passover is pagan and not "the foundation of the apostles and prophets on which the Church is built" (Ephesians 2:20; Alexander Hislop, The Two Babylons, p. 103-107).
The Last Supper was not a celebration of the Passover and was partaken Thursday evening a day before the Pascal Lamb was slain! Jesus was not celebrating Passover but instituting the ordinance of the Lord's Supper and foot washing which Christians henceforth observe in commemoration of the vicarious offering of His sinless Life as Kinsman Redeemer and His resurrection as firstfruit for the justification of those in Adam's race who receive Him as such by faith (Romans 4:25). He came to Jerusalem to make atonement and "take away the sin of the world" (Leviticus 16:5-23; John 1:29) enabling the Pentecostal Jubilee announced in His first year of ministry (Isaiah 61:1-3a; Luke 4:16-21).
Jesus came to Jerusalem to fulfill the prophetic type Israel dutifully pantomimed for fifteen hundred years in expectation of Messiah. When He came according to Scripture they dutifully killed Him, proving that God is not known by rehearsing the "letter" but revelation by the "Spirit" (II Corinthians 3:6). The Feast of Passover was fulfilled on Calvary two thousand years ago. Israel's scholarship of Scripture and Law were works without faith which is death, and those blind zealots were removed from the Book of Life (Psalm 69:22-28; Matthew 27:25; 15:9; I Corinthians 13:3). Nominal Christians who blindly mimic this Judaeo-Roman tradition that has no Scriptural authority will likely meet the same doom. Moses and Daniel foretold the year, month, week, day and hour in which the nation would murder their Messiah (Exodus 12:1-6; Daniel 24-26); many prophets foretold His death and resurrection (Genesis 3:15; Deuteronomy 18:15-18; Psalm 22; 34:20; 69; Isaiah 40:3-5; 49:7; 53; Hosea 11:1; Zechariah 9:9; 11:12-13; 13:7). This is confirmed in the Babylonian Talmud, Berachoth 34B: "R. Hiyya b. Abba also said in the name of R. Johanan: All the prophets prophesied only for the days of the Messiah".
Under the Old Covenant Jesus was sent to "the lost sheep of the house of Israel" who had assembled at Jerusalem from throughout the Roman world for the annual Feasts of Passover and Pentecost as mandated by the God of Moses (Exodus 23:14-17). Here on the Day of Pentecost three thousand faithful elect found Messiah, and another five thousand days later (Acts 2:5, 41; 4:4).
Christians live the Feast of Pentecost that commenced with the resurrection of Jesus Messiah and ran for forty-nine days thereafter. It types the Gentile dispensation, and every day is resurrection day as someone is born-again. Well might you say, "Brother Branham and Branham Tabernacle celebrated Easter," and that is the truth. They also celebrated Christmas, the Sun god's birthday, and God "winked at their ignorance" as Christ was still a Mediator and they were Laodicean saints with only PART-Word, whereas we live in the holy convocation of the antitype of the fiftieth day of Israel's Pentecostal Feast, and as a Word Bride with the Token of the Life of Christ on display it behooves us to "grow up into the fullness of Him in all things who is the Head. That we should no longer be children swung back and forth and carried here and there with every wind of doctrine that springs from human craftiness and ingenuity for devising error" (Ephesians 4:14-15).
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.

Scientists: Increase in US Earthquakes almost certainly Manmade
April 7, 2012 — A US Geological Survey (USGS) team has found that a sharp jump in earthquakes in America's heartland appears to be linked to oil and natural gas drilling operations. As hydraulic fracturing has exploded onto the scene, it has increasingly been connected to earthquakes. Some quakes may be caused by the original fracking—that is, by injecting a fluid mixture into the earth to release natural gas (or oil). More appear to be caused by reinjecting the resulting brine deep underground. . .
The study found that the frequency of earthquakes started rising in 2001 across a broad swath of the country between Alabama and Montana. In 2009, there were 50 earthquakes greater than magnitude-3.0, the abstract states, and then 87 quakes in 2010. The 134 earthquakes in the zone last year is a sixfold increase over 20th century levels.
The surge in the last few years corresponds to a nationwide surge in shale drilling, which requires disposal of millions of gallons of wastewater for each well. According to the federal Energy Information Administration, shale gas production grew, on average, nearly 50 percent a year from 2006 to 2010. . . Full story: thinkprogress.org

Fukushima Nuclear Waste headed to California Coast by 2013
April 6, 2012 — The anti-nuke movement in Japan will have succeeded in shutting down all of that country's nuclear energy plants by the end of next month but the Japanese government is seeking to restart these facilities. Meanwhile, a massive raft of highly contaminated debris will start hitting the California sea coast by 2013.

Unit 4 storage pool . . . The entire building is listing including the pool. What they have are steel jacks underneath the pool to try to keep the floor from falling out or the pool from flipping over. If that cooling water supply is lost, it will be just a few hours at most before that waste is on fire. 135 tons outside of any radioactive containment. They would be direct releases into the environment. 100% of cesium-137 [roughly 85 times the amount of Cs-137 released at the Chernobyl accident as estimated by the US National Council on Radiation Protection] could be released to the environment. . . The meltdown and unprecedented release of radiation that would ensue is the worst case scenario that then-Prime Minister Kan and other former officials have discussed in the past months. He warned during his speech at the World Economic Forum in Davos that such an accident would force the evacuation of the 35 million people in Tokyo, close half of Japan and compromise the nation's sovereignty. Such a humanitarian and environmental catastrophe is unimaginable. Hiroshi Tasaka, a nuclear engineer and special adviser to Prime Minister Kan immediately following the crisis, said the crisis "just opened Pandora's Box" (globalresearch.ca).
Training Terrorists in Nevada: Seymour Hersh on US Aid to Group tied to Iranian Scientist Killings
April 10, 2012 — Seymour Hersh reports the US Joint Special Operations Command trained operatives from Mujahideen-e-Khalq, or MEK, at a secret site in Nevada beginning in 2005. According to Hersh, MEK members were trained in intercepting communications, cryptography, weaponry and small unit tactics at the Nevada site up until President Obama took office. The MEK has been listed as a foreign terrorist group since 1997 and is linked to a number of attacks, spanning from the murders of six US citizens in the 1970s to the recent wave of assassinations targeting Iranian nuclear scientists. Hersh also discusses the role of Israeli intelligence and notes the Obama administration knew about the training, "because they have access to what was going on in the previous administration in this area in terms of the MEK, in terms of operations inside Iran". . .
Despite its designation as a "terrorist" organization by the State Department for 15 years, a number of prominent former US officials have been paid to speak in support of the MEK. The bipartisan list includes two former CIA directors, James Woolsey and Porter Goss; former Homeland Security Secretary Tom Ridge; New York City Mayor Rudolph Giuliani; former Vermont Governor Howard Dean; former Attorney General Michael Mukasey; former FBI Director Louis Freeh; former UN Ambassador John Bolton; and former Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell. . .

Of Towering Infernos, False Flags & Terrorism
April 10, 2012 — When Moscow's Federation Tower skyscraper caught fire on April 1st, images of the blazing inferno on its upper floors were grim reminders of New York's World Trade Center 9/11 attacks of 2001.
Had the 9/11 "laws of physics" prevailed Federation Tower should have collapsed into its footprint and covered central Moscow in inches of fine dust. Clearly, that did not happen. . . What did happen was that twenty Moscow fire brigades and helicopters fought the blaze, brought it under control and finally extinguished it.
Indeed, strange events surround 9/11 which has become the watershed event of our times. For it marks the beginning of US/UK Imperial Overdrive in their global "War on Terror," costing untold suffering, death and bloodshed in countries since invaded and destroyed. It also "justifies" today's Gestapo-like 24/7 police state surveillance on US and European populations. Two of many reasons why the 9/11 Event needs to be revisited and reassessed until the full Truth finally comes out: who did it, why, and how? Full story: rense.com

We are EMR Guinea Pigs: Smart Grid
April 2, 2012 — A global "Smart Grid" program is being implemented which is blasting homes and businesses with more electromagnetic radiation than human beings have ever been subject to in human history. It is utterly preposterous to assume this will not lead to major human epidemics. We must now face the very serious problem that the institutions, government, corporations and foundations that are supposed to be serving our interests are deliberately violating, exploiting, endangering and assaulting us. This video exposes electromagnetic radiation (EMR) as a major danger and violation to all current and future generations. Full story: youtube.com australiatoday Stopsmartmeters.com.au

Predictive Programming and the Human Microchipping Agenda
December 16, 2011 — Predictive Programming and the Human Microchipping Agenda confirms the reality of the microchip agenda, and shows that the weapon of propaganda has been used against the public for decades in order to familiarize us with the idea of being chipped. This process is called predictive programming and its purpose is literally to program the mind of the victim to accept without question whatever is required by the programmer—in this case, the idea of being microchipped at some point in the future. The victim is generally unaware of being programmed, believing that it's all just harmless entertainment. For this reason it can be a powerful and effective weapon against us.

Comment: This is a clever diversion. The beast is the Judaeo-Roman Catholic church whose mark in the forehead is her trinity dogma: scores of millions of refractory Christians were martyred. The mark in the right hand indicates servitude. Every nation and tongue, primitive natives, Judaics, Islamists and Protestants (so-called) worship the trinitarian gods of Babylon under different names. Since the days of Nimrod most of humanity has ignorantly borne the mark of the beast for millennia, and will die to defend it.
The Rice Video – Carbon Dioxide in Perspective
April 3, 2012 — Contrary to what the government is telling us, there's no scientific consensus attributing global warming to carbon dioxide. There's no scientific evidence for the government's claim. The basis for government climate policy is political reports driven by a political agenda that reverses and deliberately manipulates science. Misrepresentations of science are promoted by people benefiting financially from spreading climate fear. Full story: youtube galileomovement
Comment: As you reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere you also proportionately reduce the amount of oxygen as carbon dioxide is the food green plants consume to produce oxygen through photosynthesis (jonchristianryter).
It has taken the media five years to report that in 2007 NASA confirmed that the same Solar Cycle 24 solar flares that began in 1994 and is behind "global warming" on Earth, has raised temperatures on Venus from 470 degrees to 517 degrees, and has been melting the carbon dioxide ice caps on Mars. Many of the world's best climate scientists and astrophysicists have been too intimidated to argue with the global warming advocates since the IPCC, which is the UN's global authority on climate change, has announced the debate is settled. The debate is settled because the climate change industry is now the largest employer in the world excluding the governments themselves; and if man-made global warming is debunked there will be catastrophic unemployment for those conning the world into believe we are the culprits behind global warming (jonchristianryter.com). The great global warming swindle.
The Federal Reserve owns Your Life
When I looked at my own Birth Certificate, I noticed it was a copy of the original. So I went through old boxes and baby books that my Mom had saved before she died and found what I was looking for—my original Birth Certificate. It was brittle and yellowed with decades of age but—wow—it was NOT the original! . . . It seems none of us have our original Birth Certificates—they are all copies. And the copies have a serial number on them; issued on special Bank Bond paper and authorized by "The American Bank Note Company". . .
It seems that back in 1913 the United States was short of cash. World War I had depleted the treasury and there were several really bad financial panics . . . When you or I need more money, we use something as collateral and go to a bank for a loan. When a country needs more money it has to go somewhere also. But in 1913 there wasn't anywhere to go. So the US created the Federal Reserve Act. This established a private central bank (The Federal Reserve Bank) that would regulate the amount of money the US government was allowed to borrow and put in circulation. It also would expect to be repaid, like any bank, with interest . . .
Within two weeks and three days each Certificate of Live Birth is to be filed in Washington DC. Evidence reveals that there is even a Federal Children Department established by the Shepherd/Townsend Act of 1922 under the Department of Commerce that appears to be involved in this process in some way. Every citizen is given a number (the red number on the Birth Certificate) and each live birth is valued at from 650,000 to 750,000 Federal Reserve dollars in collateral from the Fed. . .

The Sixth Trumpet – Part III
With these notes we will close our study of the Sixth Trumpet with a broad outline of things we have understood from all Seven Trumpets in the Book of the Revelation of Jesus Christ.
The first four Trumpets concern God's judgments upon Israel while He is dealing with His Church under the first four Seals of grace. The Fifth Trumpet calls the torment of judgment upon "ALL men who do not have the Seal of God in their forehead." The Sixth Trumpet is a judgment upon the Israelites, while the Seventh Trumpet calls Christ's Bride of all Ages to the Wedding Supper in the Air, Israel's elect to their atonement, various groups of the "saved" to purging, and the remainder to the pit of the abyss pending the general resurrection.
A generation after Calvary, Pentecost, and Paul's Message to the Ephesian Church Age, the Lord had gleaned an elect Judahite remnant into the Church and the First Trumpet judgment struck Judea as foretold in the parable of the marriage of the king's son (Matthew 22:7). All who were sealed with the Holy Ghost paid heed to Jesus' warning and escaped (Matthew 24:15-21). Josephus records the First Trumpet as Rome's siege of Jerusalem; the Judeans ate their animals, grass, bark off the trees and even their own children. When Titus breached the city wall the temple was torched and God's six angels, each with a slaughter weapon in hand and controlled by the Writer with the ink horn, the sealing Angel or Holy Ghost, led his legions on the bloody rampage prophesied in Ezekiel 9.
Paul preached the first Gospel trumpet whose Message brought grace to the elect but war upon Israel. Quoting Revelation 8:7 Brother Branham said: "When the very First Trumpet sounded, blood, fire, hail, and everything scattered the ground; God was bringing Israel out of spiritual Egypt back into his homeland" (The Feast of the Trumpets, p. 19:147). On the day of Pentecost Peter announced this when he declared, "these are not drunken as you suppose, but this is that which was spoken by the prophet Joel: THUS SAITH THE LORD, it will come to pass in the last days that I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh . . . and I will show signs in heaven above and on the earth beneath; blood, fire and vapours of smoke . . ." (Acts 2:16-19).
This was the antitype of Exodus 9:23-26, "Moses stretched forth his rod toward heaven: and the Lord sent thunder and hail, and fire ran along upon the ground; and the Lord rained hail upon the land of Egypt. It was terrible beyond description, never in all the history of Egypt had there been a storm like that. All Egypt lay in ruins. Everything left in the fields, both man and beast was killed and the crops were destroyed and every tree shattered." In Revelation 8:7 the plague fell upon the inhabitants of the Roman Province of Judea and destroyed their prosperity. "The first Trumpet angel sounded [from AD33 to 606 when most Christians were converted Israelites], and there followed hail and fire mixed with blood, and they were cast upon the earth [Judea]: and the third part of the earth was burnt up, and the third part of trees [those among the Jews such as the religious who exalted themselves] was burnt up, and all green grass [human prosperity (Isaiah 40:7; I Peter 1:24)] was burnt up."
The "third part" refers not to a fraction but signifies Israel and its interests. In Revelation 12, the Dragon, Satan, drew a third part of the stars of heaven—Israel, Abraham's natural Seed—and cast them to earth by the false tales of their rabbis. Today ministers are binding the tares with their denominational tales ready for the burning. The first four and the Sixth and Seventh Trumpets are directed specifically against the "third part," that is, Israelite interests. The "fourth part" speaks of those whose names are not in the Lamb's Book of Life (Revelation 6:8; 13:7-8, 15-18).
Since the Seven Trumpets all sound in New Testament times the fourth Gentile world empire of Imperial and Papal Rome is God's agent of Judah's chastisement as Nebuchadnezzar was His servant under the first Gentile world empire, and Judaeo-Communism will serve Him in destroying Rome and her US image (Revelation 17; 18), confirming the statement of US Chief Rabbi Stephen Wise: "Some call it Marxism I call it Judaism".
Revelation 8:8-9, "The Second Trumpet angel sounded [from about 606 to 1520], and something like a great mountain [empire] ablaze with fire was cast into the sea [or populated world]: and the third part of the sea became blood. And the third part of the creatures which were in the sea, and had life, died; and the third part of the ships [churches] were destroyed [thoroughly corrupted]".
Imperial Rome in the West was at its nadir but in 606 Papal Rome was at the start of its ascent to universal power. In the same year Mohammad retired to his cave, beginning the apostasy in the East. The great mountain represents the kingdom of Darkness tossed into the sea of nations as Papal Rome evangelized her empire at the point of a sword and her tyranny brought the Dark Ages upon her Kingdom. Israelites and Christians were martyred and their churches corrupted when the mark of the beast, Rome's trinitarian dogma, was enforced (Jeremiah 51:25, 45; Amos 7:4; Revelation 17:16; 18:8-19).
Revelation 8:10-11, "The Third Trumpet angel sounded [from 1520 to 1906], and a great star fell from heaven, burning like a torch, and it fell on the third part of the rivers, and upon the fountains of waters [Churches]; and the name of the star is Wormwood: and the third part of the waters became wormwood; and many men died of the waters, because they were made bitter".
The "great star" is the Papacy which instead of reflecting heavenly light, was exposed by the Reformers as a torch lit with man-made earthly fire smoldering with the smoke and glare of false dogma. Until the Thyatira Church Age Christian congregations had consisted primarily of converted Jews and Israelites. Hereafter Gentiles predominated and Jews began to be expelled from Christian lands along with Marranos discovered through the various inquisitions. Jewry founded the Jesuits in 1534 to recover control of the Vatican, persecute Israelites dispersed throughout Europe, counter Protestantism and—"rivers and fountains of waters [of Life]"—so those who came to drink of the sweetness of the Gospel were unable because of Judaeo-Roman Catholic bitterness and also persecution by Protestants after Luther discovered the deceit of Jewry. Whereas the source of refreshment for natural life was made sweet when the Tree of Life was added to the bitter waters of Marah (Exodus 15:22-25), here the source of Spiritual Life and refreshment was embittered.
Revelation 8:12, "And the Fourth Trumpet angel sounded [from 1906 to the close of the Gentile dispensation], and the third part of the sun was smitten, and the third part of the moon, and the third part of the stars; so as the third part of them was darkened, and no Light shone for the third part day and night".
Under the Fourth Trumpet we see Israelites abandon God's Word: the dispersed among the Gentiles assimilate as members of apostate denominational Christianity, Jewish cults, or simply lovers of money more than lovers of God, political Zionists, Judaeo-Communists, humanists, feminists, capitalists or some other fanaticism that obscures the S_O_N Light even on Israel's part in the promises of the God they have rejected. And the understanding of their quazi-Christian churches and pseudo-Christian ministers is likewise darkened (Isaiah 28:14-29).
Following the Fourth Trumpet is a warning by the Messages of three last angels to the Gentile dispensation on account of the three Woes of earth's birth pains for Millennium renewal in the Messages of the three Trumpet angels that are yet to sound (Revelation 8:13; 14:6-11). The Woes manifest as World Wars I, II "are the beginning of the final sorrow" of the Third Woe which will be Armageddon following a brief World War III (Matthew 24:8).
Revelation 9:1-6, "THEN the Fifth Trumpet angel sounded [from about 1906 to 1918], and I saw a star that had fallen to the earth from heaven, to whom was given the key to the pit of the Abyss. He opened the pit of the Abyss, and smoke arose out of the pit like the smoke of a great furnace, so that the sun and the air were darkened by the smoke from the pit. Out of the smoke locusts came upon the earth. And to them was given power like the power of scorpions of the earth [which sting but do not kill]. And it was commanded them that they should not hurt the grass of the earth, neither any green thing, neither any tree; but only those men which have not the Seal of God in their foreheads. Those demons were permitted to torture them for five months, but not kill them, and their torment was like that of a scorpion, when it stings a man. And in those days men will seek death, and will not find it; they will long to die, and death will flee from them. In appearance the locusts were like horses arrayed for battle; on their heads were what looked like crowns of gold; their faces were like human faces, their hair like women's hair, and their teeth like lion's teeth; their scales were like iron breastplates, the drone of their wings was as the roar of many horse-drawn chariots charging into battle. They have tails with stings like scorpions, and their power of hurting men for five months lies in their tails. They have as king over them the angel of the pit of the Abyss, whose name in Hebrew is Abaddon and in Greek Apollyon."
The Sixth Trumpet is a judgment upon the Israelites, while the Seventh Trumpet calls Christ's Bride of all Ages to the Wedding Supper in the Air, Israel's elect to their atonement, the various groups of the "saved" to purging, and the rest to the pit of the abyss pending the general resurrection.
Under the Fifth and Sixth Trumpets the Balfour Declaration was drafted by those who planned and funded World Wars I and II; Jerusalem was recaptured from the Ottoman Turks and on May 6, 1947 the United Nations Special Committee on Palestine (UNSCOP) the First Committee of the United Nations was set up to determine the future of Palestine.
Under the Seventh Trumpet Israel will return to the land of the Covenant now occupied by Jews. The Sixth Seal, Seventh Trumpet and Seventh Vial would appear to be no further than another circuit of the Sun yet Brother Branham warned of a depression. Speaking of the Judaeo-Roman Catholic church he said: "Ahab was on the throne . . . but Jezebel was the head behind that throne. She was the one that done the leading. Look how she took the very laws of the land and twisted them around, and for her own gain and for greed, and made Ahab do it because she was married to him. And that's the way with our leader [President Kennedy] today. I don't say he isn't a nice man, but look what's behind him: the harlot [church], the very thing that we run here, to be America for; the very principles that America's built upon. . . We, by our own free choosing, elected a thing like that.
Now, you see why my voice is going to be stopped pretty soon, somebody's going to know. Yes. Why? Revelation 2:20, she called herself a prophetess. You just watch the wave of sin happen now. You watch go plumb to the core. You watch modernistic; watch ungodly things happen in the churches. "And, finally, there'll come a persecution," the Bible says so, THUS SAITH THE LORD. Certainly there will be. [The 'squeeze'].
Then what's going to happen? Just like it did then, so will it be now. She was the power behind it; she was the one who controlled it. Read . . . about the 17th or 18th chapter along in there; you'll find what Jezebel did: how she took Ahab, and he couldn't say nothing about it because it was his wife. Look what the nation was built upon then, a backslidden Israelite with a pagan wife behind him, who was a worshipper of Baalim. And what did she do? She finally made everything so modernistic, and so nice, and the people had it so easy, until the whole church fell for it, preachers and all. Didn't Elijah say, "Lord, I'm the only one left"? And as it was then, it parallels today.
All of them was afraid to say anything. Isn't it just like the same thing today? They were afraid to say something. [Political correctness]. So we find out, they were just loose, haphazard, drunk, carrying on, and pleasure mad, and everything else, just as it is today. Jezebel twisting . . . them laws, as Jezebel will twist. Remember, Jezebel, she calls herself a prophetess to subdue the people, and she says that she is the only voice of God on the earth. She'll make the carnal mind believe that as sure as the world.
There'll come a worship of a woman in the United States, and that'll be Mary. I seen it, 1931. Seven things happened. I got it right on paper here with me, wrote it in 1931. How that I said, "This President, Franklin D. Roosevelt, he will cause all the world, help do it, send the world to war." Hadn't come to war yet, during times of depression. I said, "Another thing. . ." And my mother, a square-back Democrat, if she didn't look at me hard when I said that. I said, "I don't care if there's a Republican or if he was a Socialist or whatever he is, this is THUS SAITH THE LORD."
And I said, "Doing this, they're permitting women to vote. And when they do that, they done one of the greatest disgraces this nation ever done." And I said, "Someday they'll pay for it." And they did at this last election. That's what elected him: women . . .
When God sends forth a Message and tells the people, and they don't receive it, then He withdraws His servant and sends His plagues: famine, death, spiritually speaking, physically also. You watch for a depression, brother. You think you've seen something; you just wait after while. You haven't seen nothing. You think you're dying for a good spiritual revival; you wait till after a bit. You just wait, long and cry to hear the Word of God. The Bible said so. "There'll be a famine in the last days," said the prophet, "and not for bread and water alone, but for hearing the true Word of God." But that voice will be quiet in the wilderness somewhere, hid away" (Jezebel Religion, p.13:62-66, 100).
Taking his text from Amos 8:11 Brother Branham warned us to "watch for a depression." Reading from Amos 8:8 to 9:15 we see that Israel will be struck by an overwhelming calamity wherein the earth will heave "because the Lord touches it" (Amos 9:5). Its heaving and sinking is compared with the rise and fall of the Nile (which rises twenty feet when in flood) in allusion to the convulsion of nature in the day of the Lord when the earth will become dark when the sun goes down at midday (Isaiah 13:10; Joel 2:31-32; Zechariah 14:4-5; Matthew 24:29; Revelation 6:13) and sinners among the Israelites whom God equates as Cushites who founded Babel, and promises to destroy as He destroyed that city, will be "cast out and drowned" (Isaiah 34:4; Amos 9:7-10). This is not a mere eclipse but a catastrophe that subverts the order of nature. In those days the Word of God that men now despise for insatiable Laodicean avarice (Revelation 3:16-20), they will then seek from sea to sea, and shall not find it.
The earthquake has not yet taken place but there has been a Spiritual famine for hearing the revealed Word since the Laodicean Church Age ended in apostasy in 1963, and even after forty-nine years "knoweth it not." As the natural types the Spiritual the world must also anticipate the natural famine and depression which banksters, GMO seed manufacturers, BIG pharma, eugenicists, and the United Nations intent on world depopulation and slavery have planned for the Goiim.
Amos 3:10-11, "In that day [after the close of the Gentile dispensation in the first half of Daniel's Seventieth Week when "all the sinners of My people who say, "The judgment prophesied for the time of Jacob's trouble will not overtake nor prevent us," shall die by the sword (Zechariah 14:2)]. I will raise up the tabernacle of David that is fallen, and close up the breaches thereof; and I will raise up his ruins, and I will build it as in the days of old." This takes us to the call and regeneration of 12,000 elect souls from each of Israel's twelve tribes at the end of the "last days" or Messianic age of redemption and completion during the Great Tribulation of the second half of Daniel's Seventieth Week (Genesis 49:1, 10; Isaiah 2:2; Ezekiel 38:16; Hosea 3:4-5; Joel 3:1).
The prophet was not speaking of the restoration of a "temple made with hands" which will be built by apostate Israelites and self-styled Jews, and usurped at its dedication by the Devil-incarnate pope, but of the spoken Word body of the Millennium Temple of 144,000 elect and glorified Israelites (Ezekiel 40 – 48).
If we review the story of Joseph who was a type of Christ we find famine and global depression had overtaken the known world, and that the superpower Egypt had a monopoly of grain by means of which it was able to purchase the wealth of the world and enslave men body and soul. How like Vatican City State, her image, and the empire of the 'City of London' in this day preparing to monopolize the world's oil, minerals, agricultural land, productive economies, public utilities and infrastructure, and even fresh water in exchange for "ticket money" not worth the paper on which it is printed, so that when their derivatives ponzi schemes bring down national economies like a house of cards they can refinance the US dollar with gold backing as the Prophet has said, and enslave the nations, purchasing their debt and the souls of men for a song (Revelation 18:24).
Joseph interpreted Pharaoh's dream wherein he saw seven well-favoured cattle come up out of the river and feed in a meadow, then seven lean cattle come up after them and eat the fat cattle, yet remain as ill-favoured as before. Then he saw seven good ears of corn come up in one stalk, and seven withered husks come up and devour the seven good ears. The seven good cattle and good ears signified seven years of plenty, and the seven lean cattle and empty ears signified seven years of famine, while the doubling of the symbols was Divine confirmation of the dream (Genesis 41).
Pharaoh made Joseph his right hand man by whose word all of his subjects were ruled, a type of Christ (Genesis 41:44; John 14:6; I Corinthians 15:23-28). And Pharaoh made Joseph ride in his second chariot, preceded by runners crying, "Bow the knee, Joseph is coming." A type of the angels to the Seven Church Ages who foreran Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming for this holy convocation. Pharaoh called Joseph Zaphnathpaaneah, which means 'saviour of the world.' And as Christ was thirty years of age when He was baptized and began His ministry, Joseph was thirty years of age when he stood before Pharaoh.
"And the famine was over all the face of the earth: and Joseph opened all the storehouses, and sold to the Egyptians; and the famine waxed sore in the land of Egypt. And all countries came into Egypt to Joseph for to buy corn; because the famine was so sore in all lands." Egypt was the only place in the world with an abundance of food, and today the Churches in the revelation of this end-time Message are God's storehouse, and the only place one can find Spiritual Food in due season, so Jacob sent his sons to Egypt to buy corn. Joseph recognized his Brethren, and speaking through an interpreter he enquired of their family and learned that his own mother had died giving birth to a blood brother, Benjamin, a type of the 144,000 elect blood Israelites born in the absence of their rejected and murdered Brother Jesus Messiah.
Joseph married the Gentile Asenath, the daughter of Potipherah the priest of On, who bore him two sons, Manasseh and Ephraim during the seven years of plenty, a type of the Alpha and Omega Bride born during the Gentile dispensation and before the famine or time of judgment upon his brethren, Israel. Like the Church they were joint-heirs in the Abrahamic promise (Romans 8:17).
Speaking as an Egyptian through an interpreter, Joseph told his brothers they would receive no more corn unless on their next trip they brought their young brother Benjamin. Then, before Joseph revealed himself, the Gentile dispensation being over and Christ's Bride, represented by his wife and children hidden (or translated) in the palace, he cried "Cause every man to go out from me."
Genesis 47:20-26, "And Joseph bought all the land of Egypt for Pharaoh; for the Egyptians sold their fields, because the famine prevailed over them: so the land became Pharaoh's. As for the people, from one end of Egypt to the other he removed them to cities [which is precisely what the NWO conspirators plan to do]. Only the land of the priests did he not buy; for the priests had a fixed allowance from Pharaoh, and lived on the allowance which Pharaoh gave them: therefore they did not sell their lands [like Vatican City State]."
"Then Joseph said unto the people, Behold, I have bought you this day and your land for Pharaoh: Now here is seed for you, and you shall sow the land. And at the harvest you shall give a fifth to Pharaoh, and four fifths shall be your own, for seed of the field, and as food for yourselves and your households, and for your little ones. [Income taxation]. And they said, "You have saved our lives: may it please my lord, we will be Pharaoh's serfs." [The mark of the beast]. And Joseph established it as a statute over the land of Egypt to this day, that Pharaoh should have the fifth; the land of the priests alone did not become Pharaoh's".
If you follow the type you will see we live at the very end of the seven years of plenty or Gentile dispensation of grace, and seven lean years of Daniel's Seventieth Week are about to commence signaled by the Sixth Seal, Seventh Trump and Seventh Vial. World War III now being provoked will erupt at the end of the Gentile dispensation. Quoting Congressman Ron Paul, "World Wars I and II were funded by the same ethnic, religious, corporate and military interests that run the world today." And World War III is being fomented by differences the agents of the Illuminati stir up between Political Zionists and the leaders of the Moslem world. The war 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 (Albert Pike)?
Under the Fourth Seal which will end with the Gentile dispensation, "Satan [the god of this evil Age] rides his pale horse; Satan is called Death, and Hell follows with him. And power was given to them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth." Hence we in the near term we see:
Depression
Under the present (alien-controlled) private central banking system, money printing is directed to financial speculation and bailouts for the banksters. This has lowered living standards and caused massive hyperinflation, evidenced by $17 trillion of derivatives held by Australia's banks. But derivatives are so unregulated, nobody knows for certain exactly what the total value of all the derivatives worldwide is: low estimates put it around $600 trillion and high estimates put it at around $1.5 quadrillion. To put that in perspective, the gross domestic product of the United States is only about $14 trillion. In fact, the total market capital of all major global stock markets is only about $30 trillion. Financial derivatives have come to represent the principal business of the financier oligarchy in Wall Street, the City of London, Frankfurt, and other money centers (marketoracle.co.uk; Protocol 20:14).
Global Famine
In the post-Cold War era humanity is undergoing an economic and social crisis of unprecedented scale leading to the rapid impoverishment of large sectors of World population. National economies are collapsing, unemployment is rampant. Local famines have erupted in Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia and parts of Latin America. This "globalization of poverty"—which has largely reversed the achievements of post-war decolonization—was initiated in the Third World coinciding with the debt crisis of the early 1980s and the imposition of the IMF's deadly economic reforms. [To quote American traitor, FD Roosevelt, "If something happens in politics you can bet it was planned that way"].
The NWO feeds on human poverty and destruction of the natural environment. It generates social apartheid, encourages racism and ethnic strife, undermines the rights of women and often precipitates countries into destructive confrontations between nationalities. Since the 1990s, it has extended its grip to all major regions of the World including North America, Western Europe, the countries of the former Soviet bloc and the "Newly Industrialized Countries" (NICs) of South East Asia and the Far East. [It generates millions of refugees—innocent pawns employed without payment by the United Nations to divide, conquer and cause miscegenation in the host nations "as it was in the days of Noah" (Genesis 6:1-4; Matthew 24:37)].
This Worldwide crisis is more devastating than the Great Depression of the 1930s. It has far-reaching geo-political implications; economic dislocation has also been accompanied by the outbreak of regional wars, the fracturing of national societies and in some cases the destruction of entire countries. By far this is the most serious economic crisis in modern history (Michel Chossudovsky, Global Famine).
The Root Cause
The besetting sins of Noah's day were miscegenation between the sons of God and the daughters of man and the spiritual hybreeding of God's unchanging Word with the Tree of Knowledge. Reasoning against faith was also the besetting sin of the Israelites who committed the unpardonable sin at Kadesh Barnea, broke God's Covenant at Mount Sinai, intermarried the children of Cain (Genesis 10:15-19), forcibly assimilated Edomites in 123BC and the Khazars in AD740. The Northern kingdom hybrid God's Word with the Babylonian trinitarian religion followed by her sister Judah, who subsequently hybrid the Law of Moses with Babylonian Mercantile codes to enable people to worship God outwardly while making His Word of none effect to their souls (Matthew 15:9).
We live in the most dangerous time since the days of Noah, the very end of "the last time" (I Peter 1:5; I John 2:18; Jude 18); the Messianic age of redemption when Peter foretold: "Souls imprisoned now will come, walking after their own lusts, and scoffing: Where is the promise of His parousia, [you sixty-three-ers]? For since Brother Branham fell asleep, all things continue as they were" (II Peter 3:3-4)? "Come down from the Cross and we'll believe you" (Matthew 27:39-43).
Our one defense is faith in God's unfailing Word which is the unseen substance of things hoped for and brings what is spoken into being. Satan and his children control the present world. The law, instead of being a defense is no longer Common Law but statute law crafted to harmonize with the UCC Talmudic law of the corrupt United Nations Organization devised by the enemy of God and man to establish Lucifer's totalitarian one world government. Brother Branham said, "I believe, one of these glorious days, when this united confederation of church goes together, and the new pope is brought out of the United States and put over there according to prophecy, then they'll form an image like unto the beast. And I tell you, the true Church of God will be drove together. The real, true believers out of Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Pentecostal, Nazarene, Pilgrim Holiness, whatever they'll be, will go together and cemented by the love of God, that'll make the Body of the Lord Jesus Christ, all the believers. And agnostics and shallow-minded will be cast to one side; they'll go right on into the confederation of churches" (Acts of the Holy Spirit, p. 12:87). The United Nations in New York City will proclaim the then Devil-incarnate pope president of the NWO ruling from Jerusalem.
Oh, not Benedict XVI but according to the prophecies of Malachy: "In extreme persecution, the seat of the Holy Roman Church will be occupied by Petrus Romanus (Peter the Roman), who will feed the sheep through many tribulations, at the term of which the city of seven hills will be destroyed, and the formidable Judge will judge his people".
There is no security in the law as the system has no justice and barely relevant to local, regional or national communities. Likewise our Hegelian controlled party political sham democracies serve minority interests with the strongest lobbies and deepest pockets against the majority so that your elected representative is working to divide and conquer in the interest of reelection rather than serving the will of the majority in his electorate.
Your home is no longer your inviolate castle, and your business, profession or place of employment can be destroyed overnight. Your money will become worthless or inaccessible when the powers-that-be elect to hold it in escrow, collapse or change the present system of usury. There is no hope in this world.
Religion, Knowledge and Ethics.
Hosea 4:6, "My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because you have rejected knowledge, I will also reject you." Souls that have tasted the good Word of God and the powers of the world to come, then fall away, are imprisoned now, condemned and unable to renew themselves to repentance. Satan, the god of this evil age who rules over every nation on earth (Matthew 4:8-9; II Corinthians 4:4) has built civilization upon knowledge contrary to nature and to faith. So much of our government-approved and mandated knowledge is a pack of lies. Our history, which is absolutely false and untruthful, cannot be changed because it would disclose the subterfuge of the enemy of God and man who has deceived Adam's children with whom God set them "at enmity" (Genesis 3:15). George Bush said, "If the American people really knew what we had done, we would be chased down the street and lynched" (White House journalist Sara McClendon, 1992).
Our denominational Christian religions are a pack of lies. I heard Judaeo-Roman Catholic Cardinal Pell some years ago when Pope Benedict visited Australia admit he had no idea why the Bible forbids women from ministering God's Word, and just this week in a televised debate with evolutionary biologist Richard Dawkins the Cardinal said he believed human beings had evolved from Neanderthals and that Adam and Eve probably never existed beyond a myth. Is it any wonder that today there is not a single Christian among two billion professing Roman Catholics? Christians have been gentrified and trained to docile unthinking obedience to the system rather than loyalty to the Absolute of God's unchanging Word.
The 'hidden hand' of Satan working in the children of Darkness controls our minds by the propaganda of education, religion, commercial advertising, legislation and licensing, a dishonest news monopoly, amoral entertainment, immoral fads and fashions, deadly pharmaceuticals and medical practices. We once scoffed at the brainwashing in communist countries but that was before we knew that they were controlled and funded by the pagan banksters in London and New York who are also our masters.
God sent a mighty prophet in this day to restore the apostolic faith, finish the mystery of God, introduce Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming and call the wise and foolish virgin OUT from Rome and her (once) Protestant daughters into the unity of the faith for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation. His ministry revealed Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and today, and forever vindicated by the same signs and wonders Jesus performed, and in greater number as He promised (Luke 17:28-30; Hebrews 4:12; 13:8; John 14:12), but as Israel clung to their substitute lamb in the days of His flesh, so-called Christians cling to their substitute creeds instead of becoming one with the Word to which we shall return our attention.
Matthew directed his Gospel to the Israelites and in chapter 24 the disciples asked Jesus three questions:
- When will the temple be laid level with the ground?
- What will be the sign of Your 'parousia' Coming [to Israel in Daniel's Seventieth Week], and
- What will be the sign of the consummation of the world?
In Matthew 24:4-13 Jesus outlined the first five Seals of Revelation 6 which cover the Gentile dispensation, adding verse 14: "In this time this Gospel of the Kingdom will be preached throughout the whole world to testify to all nations; and (3) then the end will come".
Matthew 24:14 summarizes the Gentile dispensation from Pentecost and the Seven Church Ages to the end of Christ's mediation, the revelation of the Seven Seals and the holy convocation of Bride Age of the antitype of the fiftieth day of Israel's Pentecostal Feast to end of our Dispensation at the opening of the Sixth Seal.
Matthew 24:15-28 is the Gentile dispensation from Pentecost, the siege of Jerusalem and destruction of the temple by General Titus (1) to Brother Branham's restoration in the West of the Apostolic Light that rise in the East (Zechariah 14:7), Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming to we Gentiles, our separation from Rome and her harlot daughters and our gathering together around the fullness of the Word. Now please do not accept my words, but prove these things in your own Bible and reconcile what I have said with the written Word so that you gain understanding, which is faith.
Matthew 24:22-28 is the calling out of Christ's end-time Bride. For us the days are being shortened or abridged by the revelation of the Prophet's Message which is the "midnight cry" of Matthew 25:6, which is the "shout" of I Thessalonians 4:16 confirmed by the "Voice of the Archangel" who is Christ in the heart of His Bride placing the Message from Genesis to Revelation (Revelation 18:4) to bring us to maturity for the manifestation of the Sons of God and the translation following the Seventh Trumpet. Then we will change in the atoms to meet the Lord in the air, thus "shortening the days." And the world will go into the tribulation of famine, depression and plagues of the Sixth Seal, Seventh Trumpet and Seventh Vial during the seven lean years typed by Pharaoh's dream.
Matthew 24:29-31 is set under the Sixth Seal after the end of the Gentile dispensation of grace at the Seventh Trumpet when "The nations rage, and God's pent up wrath is come, and the time for the dead to be judged, and for His servants the prophets and the saints, and all who reverence Your Name, both small and great to be rewarded; and for destroying those who are destroying the earth" (Revelation 11:18). This will be the time of the earthquakes and the sign of Christ's 'parousia' Coming to Israel (2) upon the mount of Olives (Zechariah 14:4) when "the four winds" of World War III cause an exodus of self-styled Jews, after which the Lord will anoint two Hebrew prophets to gather His elect (primarily) from the Muslim lands of the ancient Assyrian Empire to the land of the Covenant to recognize and mourn their atonement by faith in the revelation of their seven Trumpet mysteries.
Matthew 24:32-36 takes us to the disciples' third question (3), "What will be the sign of the completion or consummation of the world"? To be of any value a sign warning of the consummation of life must necessarily to appear well before the devastation. More than 2,500 years ago Daniel 9:27 foretold Papal Rome's seven-year covenant with Israel over Daniel's Seventieth Week and its rupture in the midst of the week to abolish the revived animal sacrifices and force her trinitarian dogma. Daniel 9:27 and Revelation 17:11-18 both confirm the sixth of seven consecutive major visions the Lord showed Brother Branham in 1933 wherein "There arose up in America a most beautiful, but cruel woman. She held the people in her complete power. I believed that this was the rise of the Roman Catholic Church." The Prophet said all seven visions will come to pass before His Coming is completed, and "He mentioned the six Seals as we have seen, but not the Seventh Seal, He's never said nothing in here about the Seventh Seal nowhere. See, right away, the thirty-second verse turns to a parable of the time of the calling of the elected Jew" (The Revelation of the Seven Seals, p. 549:1):
(3) "Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and puts forth leaves, you know that summer [harvest ingathering and redemption] is nigh: [the resurrection of Christ's "Wheat" Bride, and afterwards the redemption and martyrdom of the fruit of the trees. The peculiarity of the fig tree is that the blossom comes before the leaf, thus the fruit leads the leaf, but as in the parable of Matthew 21:18 modern Israel which put forth leaves in 1948 is without fruit after seventy-five years]: so also when you see all these things, know that the end [Matthew 24:14] is near, even at the doors." Do you see the long-term warning Jesus has given for the consummation? Israel cannot bear fruit until the elect heirs of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob return to the land of their Covenant in the first half of Daniel's Seventieth Week and receive the ministry of the Hebrew prophets of Zechariah 4 and Revelation 11 since their Old Testament Covenant is of no effect outside the Land and God deals with Israel as a nation which will be born-again in one day (Isaiah 66:8).
Luke 21:29-31 extends the warning to all nations: "And Jesus told them a parable: Look at the fig tree, and all the trees; as soon as they come into leaf, you see for yourselves and know that summer is already near. So as soon as you see these things taking place, you know that the Kingdom of God is near." This confirms 1948, and like Israel, former colonies began their revivals as independent nations following World War II as did churches around the world.
Continuing in Matthew, "Truly I say to you, This generation [Gk. 'genea'—race or family of people, nearly equivalent to 'genos,' a more pregnant meaning implying the character of one generation stamps itself upon the race (Exodus 20:5)—genuine blood Israelites descended from Abraham, Isaac and Jacob who will know and discern these signs] will not pass [or expire], till all these things be fulfilled. Heaven and earth will pass away [and change], but My Words shall not pass away [or change]. But of that day and hour knows no man, not even the angels of heaven, but My Father only".
Brother Branham said, "The Laodicean Age began around the turn of the Twentieth Century, perhaps 1906. How long will it last? As a servant of God who has had multitudes of visions, of which NONE has ever failed, let me predict (I did not say prophesy, but predict) that this Age will end around 1977. If you will pardon a personal note here, I base this prediction on seven major continuous visions that came to me one Sunday morning in June, 1933" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 321:2).
As a dispensation Laodicea ended in 1963, but it was not until about 1977 which, was the age of accountability to the fullness of the Message completed in 1965 that Christ's end-time Bride within the circle of this Message began to catch the revelation and come into "the unity of the faith" for this holy convocation. There was a division between us and the Laodicean majority: few have come out of Pentecostal PART-Word into the present Truth—what Jesus is doing now.
"Based on these seven visions, along with the rapid changes that have swept the world in the last fifty years, I PREDICT (I do not prophesy) that these visions will have all come to pass by 1977. And though many may feel that this is an irresponsible statement in view of the fact that Jesus said that "no man knoweth the day nor the hour," I still maintain this prediction after thirty years because Jesus did NOT say no man could know the year, month or week in which His coming was to be completed. So I repeat, I sincerely believe and maintain as a private student of the Word, along with Divine inspiration that 1977 ought to terminate the world systems and usher in the millennium (ibid, p. 322:4).
The revelation of the Message as distinct from its letter terminated the world systems for the believer (Matthew 25:6; Revelation 18:4) and ushered in the millennium by "the restitution of all things, which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began" (Acts 3:21; Revelation 10:7). Christ's "coming is to be completed" by the threefold PROCESS revealed by Paul. The "Shout" brought Him back to earth in W_O_R_D form in 1963 by the ministry of the Seven Seals (Revelation 10:1-7); "the Voice of the Archangel" in the heart of His Bride brings us to maturity in the unity of the faith as he confirms the Message from Genesis to Revelation, and the Trumpet will mark the close of the Gentile dispensation, followed after three days by the commencement of the resurrection, the manifestation of the Sons of God, and the translation of "we who are alive and remain . . . when the day of Pentecost has fully come . . . so shall we ever be with the Lord." Since his Message is directed to Christ's end-time Bride, "the year, month or week in which His Coming will be completed" can be known.
Five of the seven visions were fulfilled between 1935 and 1965. Clearly the last two visions did not come to pass by 1977, of which he said: "Women, given the right to vote, elected President-elect Kennedy—by the woman's vote, the wrong man, which will finally be to full control of the Catholic church in the United States; then the bomb comes that explodes her" (Hybrid Religion, p. 160:6).
"Now remember, it was Imperial Pagan Rome that fell by the sword. But she was healed of her death stroke when she joined to the nominal Christian church of Rome and incorporated paganism and Christianity, and thereby became the Holy Roman Empire which was to endure until Jesus came and destroyed her. But Rome is not going it alone. Her daughters are right with her and she will take over absolute authority by the World Council of Churches. This may seem farfetched to some but actually it is very plain for all to see because right now the churches are controlling politics and at the opportune time will manifest exactly how great is that control. This ecumenical move will end up with Rome at the head even though the people did not envision it that way. This is so because in Revelation 17:3-6 it states that the whore, Mystery Babylon is seated on the beast. She is controlling the last or fourth empire. This Roman Church is doing that. With the world church system under her Rome will be controlling, and this image (church system) will be obedient to Rome because Rome controls the gold of the world. Thus all the people have to belong to the world church system or be at the mercy of the elements for they cannot buy or sell without the mark of the beast in the hand or head. This mark in the head means that they will have to take the doctrine of the world church system which is trinitarianism, etc., and the mark in the hand which means to do the will of the world church. With this great power the church systems will persecute the true Bride. This image will try to keep the Bride from preaching and teaching, etc. Her ministers will be forbidden to give comfort and truth to the people who need it. But before the antichrist (in person) takes over this complete world system of churches the true church will be taken away from this world to be with the Lord. God will catch away His Bride for the great Marriage Supper of the Lamb" (ibid, p. 376:1).
Matthew 24:22 – 25:46 covers the period of the Seventh Seal which began to manifest in March, 1963 and continues through the Millennium, past the general resurrection and White Throne Judgment to the end of time and our return to eternity in the renewed heavens and renewed earth. I Corinthians 15:24-28 also describes the Seventh Seal, commencing with Christ's second or 'parousia' Coming to we Gentiles and continuing to the end of time "that God may be all in all". nl731.htm
