Day Of The Lord – Master Husband #01

Heavenly Father, we believe absolutely that that same Spirit that was in human flesh is here at this hour, for we know that Scripture’s told us the Lord Himself shall descend from Heaven with a Shout, with the voice of the Archangel, and the Trump of God.

We know that that Spirit designated as the Spirit of Him should be in the last day amongst us, revealing unto us those things which we are supposed to know, which will bring us together, and we appreciate that.

We cannot turn our backs upon It, Lord, we cannot believe for one minute that You came, and then You went, and You will come, and You will go. And then You will come and You will go with us.

We don’t believe that, because the same One that taught us that the Lord would descend with a Shout which was a Message. Also saying which was a messenger to gather the people together.

Same One said that He comes down, that One to set Himself at the Head of the Church in order to raise the dead.

So, we believe, Lord, that that is what is transpiring now, and we know that they without us cannot be made perfect, so, therefore something is going on at this particular time where all things are coming into subjection.

We believe that, Lord, and we do not know within ourselves that we have any of the earmarks that we can demonstrate to people, but by faith, Lord, we have received this Word and stand with It until It becomes finalized and finalization will mean, Lord, that there will be a Resurrection, there will be a Catching-away.

And then there will be a continuation of those things which are set forth in that vein. And so, Father, we stand here this morning in that assurance. And we thank You that we do not changed our theme, we do not change the structure of it.

We do not change anything, except to believe that we’re going from glory to glory as by the Spirit of the Living God conforming to the Word bringing that Word to Life in this hour.

So, Lord, here we are, let it be unto us according to Thy Word, to that end we consecrate ourselves. Help us therefore in everything said and done.

We need Your help in Jesus’ Name we pray. Amen.

You may be seated.

[Brother Vayle goes through some local announcements.]

Now, we’ve been dealing with the Lord’s Day, which is the Day of the Master, the Day of the Husband, because we find that the word ‘Lord’ is a word that’s translated in a general across the board sense as to mean ‘master’. One in authority, husband.

We found in the Fourth Century AD I believe it is, I don’t think it’s BC, it could be BC, that the Word began taking on a very distinct understanding, so this is what ours would be, of a husband.

A legal guardian of a girl, the owner and the possessor you’d say, and the governor in his own household. Now, Moses we know was a servant in a house which God built. But, when it comes to Jesus you’ll find that He’s the Master.

So, looking at this word ‘master’, we found then that it’s a general purpose word having to do with a thought mainly then of the legal husband, the legal possessor and governor in the house.

And we just let it stay there, because we’re going into the ‘Day of the Lord’, and we’ll be taking that particular facet as time goes on. But, in the meantime we’re looking at other aspects of that ‘Day of the Lord’, and, so we can lead up to what we’re into on the Judge.

So, we read in Revelation, the 1st chapter there, verses 10 to begin with:

Now, you’ll notice in here that this Book is a Book of voices. And this voice is a particular voice, because he turned to see who was giving voice, as Brother Branham said, “To see if It was a Scriptural Voice.”

And remember, that you see by hearing. The Bible mentions here, “Blessed is he that readeth and they that hear the Words.”

And so that you… when you read you are literally hearing by way of the eyes, and when you hear, you are literally seeing by way of the ears.

And we know that Samuel heard this voice of God speaking to him. And whatever the voice told him, you’ll notice that Samuel said, the Scripture’s says, “He feared to show Eli the vision.”

So, here was somebody seeing with his ears. Now, that’s not hard, because you don’t see with your eyes and you don’t hear with your ears. You have a auditory nerve and an optic nerve.

And the auditory nerve goes from the ear, and the optic nerve goes from the eye and you see with your brain. Which, if you blotted you eye out you’d ruin the camera.

If you plugged your ears, you’d not able to hear, but specifically if you injured a part of your brain, you wouldn’t see and you wouldn’t hear. If you missed it.

So really, what we’re looking at here then, is John… is turning in order to receive in his mind and in his spirit which he is into a revelation from God. Now, this is perfectly scriptural.

Okay, let’s go to Numbers 12: and we’ll get it.

Apparently doesn’t simply mean it’s ‘apparent’, which it does mean it’s ‘apparent’.

But the word ‘apparent’ means in a shape, or in a form, which is apprehendable, so that the one in that particular presence… particular presence, which is the Presence of God in a form, Pillar of Fire, whirlwind, you name it, Cloud, Rock, whatever, is speaking audibly to the person and not in dark speeches, and similitude’s.

No, it’s going to be speaking very directly. And he’ll behold that figure that God presents. And then God will be dealing with that person through the figure that He presents to the prophet.

So, you can see that this here is simply very tersely put forward what would of necessity transpired, because this is how God does things.

So, John was in the spirit, and we found that literal translation of that is, or an extended translation, or an enlarged translation could be, “I came to be in spirit to the Lord’s Day.”

In other words, he comes to a certain particular area that goes beyond where he is at this moment. And goes beyond to a stretch of time that isn’t actually told us as to the number of years, and he comes to the Day of the Lord.

Now, there he begins to receive revelation at this time, wherein the Day of the Lord is a Judge. Now, you’ll notice that he got out of his own spirit. You got to be careful that you don’t get your own spirit in the way, because the spirit is a very to seal thing.

First of all to begin with as the child drops from the mother’s womb, the child doesn’t have a spirit. There’s a spirit waiting there to receive that body, which in combination with the soul that evidently that the child has, because he was in his father’s loins.

And he had to get here somehow by natural generation, which he did, a lost sheep, and they’re not all lost sheep’s either; there could be reprobate or anything else, so this child dropping, male or female, receives one of these spirits that Brother Branham said, “Is not from God, but allowed of God.”

In other words, is not of God, as His Holy Spirit is, but it’s a definitive spirit that He created.

Now, Brother Branham seems to have definitely associated those spirits, with angels, so that there could well be many people possessed by fallen angels, and those who have, you know, a proper angel that didn’t fall.

Okay, what I’m driving at is this: because that spirit is on the outside of the soul, and it is not a genuine human spirit per se, as though you were born with it, and soul and spirit works through the flesh, which mostly the spirit works through the flesh, because that’s like an animus to the flesh.

And that spirit in there is one that was out here, you wouldn’t have a great deal of trouble of contacting what lies out here.

Now, the Scripture says, “No man knows the things of man say the spirit of man that’s in him.”

So, the spirit of man would be able to produce a Edison, or a ‘Steinmetz’, not the piano, that’s a ‘Steinway’ a Steinmetz, or a Telsa, or almost anything. See?

And, or a Russell, world famous under the time of Roosevelt, he could tap the universe, in fact they call him, “the man that tapped the universe.”

But, here’s where preachers like Glen Clark get all messed up, because they’re Unity, and in Christian Science. They never get a true rebirth. You see, that would allow them to really know the things of God.

Now, Paul said, “No man knows the things of God, say the Spirit of God.” But, he said, “Because we’re born again, we got the Spirit of God which is now joined to our soul.”

Our nature then is a changed nature, and our knowledge and understanding will not be in the realm of men who all men have this type of spirit. But, they’ll have a genuine Spirit of God, that’ll keep them with the Word.

Now, I hope you’re getting what I’m trying to tell you here. John is like everyone of us. But he’s born again, and he’s got an office. Now, John says, “I became to be in spirit.”

Now, he already was in his own spirit, there’s no two ways about that, and he’s not out here tapping into something out here that can be fallacious.

Albeit, could be very scientifically true, and a man learn wonderful secrets which he might be a benefit in civilization to his brother and sister. But, John was in the Holy Spirit. See?

Now, let’s get this; this is why you and I need a prophet to be a hundred percent in the Word. Because there’s no way that you and I can get where John was, where Moses was, or William Branham was, or any prophet was. There is just no way!

Now, that’s why when people come along and they say, “Well, you know, Brother Vayle, I know Brother Branham was a great man, but I’ve had something happen here.”

And you know me and my nature, and for me to be nice at a time like this is way beyond the miraculous. It is divinely heavenly. And I’m ready to just rise up and take that guy apart!

Because, I know he hasn’t got anything! Hogwash! Fap! There isn’t one of them. Not one who could come near William Branham. Listen, I know the gamut, don’t talk to me, I’ve been out there.

Now, they feel they don’t need a prophet. See? They don’t need someone who could become in spirit. See? And listen, when you do get this flat. Now, let’s get this flat. And I mean flat, flat, flat.

If you’re not ready to take it, I ain’t going to pray for you, you pray for yourself, because this is tough. A prophet can say nothing of his own will. Can say nothing of his own will.

I might get a prophet so mad he’d like to say to me outside the Spirit, “Lee Vayle, I’d like to kill you.”

And I’d say, “Fine, because you talked in your spirit.”

But you get that man in the Spirit of God, he is just like Balaam before Balak. And old Balaam look down and he said, “I can tell, he said, it’s going to be a cinch, it’s going to be a walk over, that is a bunch of riffraff.”

And the minute his spirit left him, and he was in the spirit of God, he said, “I cannot say anything of myself, there’s no way can curse them, they’re beautiful, they’re wonderful.”

Now, a lot of people you know, they could be like Balaam. But, in the spirit there is no way, when you come here you got to understand it’s the definitive.

Now, this is definitive. One person said to Brother Branham, “John must have had some hot peppers.”

Well, that’s fine if that’s what kind of person you are. You’ll get your hot peppers, but that’s down the road. But, you better repent, because that’s literally blaspheming the Word of God.

This is a fantastic Book, and what John saw was a hundred percent right. He knew what he was saying, he knew what he saw, and it takes a prophet at the end-time to open It and that’s Revelation 10:7. See?

Now, John saw this ‘Day of the Lord’ that we’re looking at. Everything here is a hundred percent. There isn’t one thing that’s off key. There isn’t one thing interpolated, there’s not one thing left out.

That’s exactly why He said, “You can’t add and you can’t take.” Because he said, “I didn’t get this of myself. I became in my spirit to the Lord’s Day.”

Like Brother Branham said, “I get alone, and [he said] I take up my parable.”

You see, I went to Brother Branham years ago and I said, “Brother Branham, I said, you know this business of being a prophet, I said, there’s something to it a lot of people don’t get.”

I said, “There’s something in there that that man’s got that he knows he got, and he able to fill the office.”

He said, “Brother Vayle, what do you mean?”

“Well,” I said, “I’ll tell you, take the case of Balaam, I said, that old boy knew exactly what to do. He knew he could swing into it.”

“Oh,” he said, “certainly Brother Vayle, didn’t you read where he said he took up his parable?”

It wasn’t building altar, it was taking up his parable. He said what people to outrun… what is this? The thing they call ‘the mantra’, the ‘eeny, meeny, miny, moe’ stuff. Mantra, montra, shamantra, who cares? Bunch of hogwash.

But, a prophet has a real parable, and Brother Branham says, “Certainly, and I take up mine, but I won’t tell you the words I say.”

Now look it, he told us, he said, the best he could tell us. He said, “I get alone by myself and I say something like ‘two and two’, he said, suddenly it begins breaking in.”

Like two and two are four, two and two are four, two and two are… faster, faster, faster, faster… suddenly you break into it.

Now, I’m going to tell you something: I don’t know much about prophecy, get this flat. Because I’m no prophet. But I do know enough about visions.

And I do know enough about a trance, although I’m not great at trances, because I haven’t been into a trance except with my eyes wide open looking out, just watching what I was seeing.

And I’m going to tell you this brother/sister, you haven’t got any more to do with than then a hog has to circle the globe in that space shuttle. Nothing. Nothing.

And I’m going to tell you something: it’s so far apart from you, it’ll scare the living daylights out of you, if you’ve got living daylights in you. It’ll scare you.

There’s nothing that God ever gives it isn’t serious and very sober. And John was very serious and sober when he left his own spirit. Now, I’m not saying he left his spirit and stuck it over there.

I’m just saying he got away from the entire influence of his spirit and he went plumb into trance’s and vision right out there. And he began looking and hearing.

When that Voice spoke the whole thing formed before him no doubt. And It was a conversational Voice, because God said, “I will speak with him.”

Notice, John spoke back and forth. Moses spoke back and forth. Paul spoke back and forth. We know that Paul spoke back and forth, because he said, “I besought the Lord three times concerning this.”

And the Voice came and spoke to me and said, “My grace is sufficient for you.”

So, we know that here we’re into a perfectly tremendous portion of Scripture that a prophet of Revelation 10:7 says, “This is the Day of the Lord.” And John saw Him as Judge. So, we’re looking at it.

All right, the ‘Day of the Lord’, that’s what we’re looking at to begin with. And we asked the question last Sunday, “When did the Lord Jesus ever have his day?”

Well, we know that he never did have his day according to Isaiah 53:7-8, because It categorically says:

Now, he was cut off, he never had his day. He died at age thirty-three and a half as far as we know. Three and a half years of that as a seventieth week, the last week of the seven years. He was cut off.

So, since then He’s been engaged in mediatorial and intercessory ministering. So he’s never had his day. See? No way, so that day is going to come. Now, this is man’s day.

Now, let’s go back to,

Now, that’s not immortality, eternality. That’s from the ages to the ages.

Now, he said, “If this man puts forth his hand now and he had the ability to do it, or it would not be said, he would’ve lived for the age to the age where God had planned something different.”

Now, man has been living for six thousand years, but not one man. There has to be a time when God changes His regimen. Now, He had a flesh and blood man who could sin.

A flesh and blood man who when he sinned nature would rise against him, so there’d be prickles on the roses, and there would be bared teeth and fangs on animals.

There would be poison that could be released by animals, snakes and things, bugs also, where the man could be tortured and tormented.

In fact, the Bible said, “Hell created for the devil and his angels.” Man, some will go too and they’ll be tortured and tormented.” That’s true, we make no bones about it.

Now, man has a period of time that has been allotted him. And that would take in the earthly span before there is a change, and that would take in the future span which will end in annihilation.

You see how it all adds up? Just one little verse tells you everything. Now, man had that ability, and he’s still got the ability to live on.

Now, let’s go over here to,

Now, he tells you that this One at the time of the Day of the Lord, because that’s what John was looking at way down at the end, when the Great One would become a Judge, He says, “time runs out.”

Now, what time is running out? Time for the Seven Church Ages. Time for a resurrection. Time for the Bride to be immortalized.

All of these things… in other words, he sees man’s time run out. See? Now, it’s not the time itself ceases. That goes on for a thousand years into the White Throne until the New Jerusalem comes on earth, which is re-created. It doesn’t have the water.

Like our earth today is five-sixth water, one sixth land. The days to come is going to be six-sixth. People worry about feeding four billion people on one sixth of the land. What can you feed on six-sixth of the land?

If you could feed four billion people, you could go ahead and put another twenty billion out there. See, everybody worries. Why worry? Because time’s run out.

So, we see time has run out here. Man’s day is about to close. The reason is, is that Jesus has been promised today. The great One we’re looking at.

Now, let’s go back to Psalms. Now, I want you to listen to what I’m saying and put it all together.

Now, It tells you that God is going to institute a throne for this certain Person. And He will rule as divinely as Divinity Himself. There will not be an appreciable difference, because there will be no difference. Because the Great Spirit God will be in Him.

All right, with that we go to,

Now listen: at the right hand He’s got to wait until He says, “the enemies become the footstool,” and at the same time He tells you, “That rod which is the strength of Zion is going to rule over the enemies.” Which is, He takes over in Revelation 19 with the rod of iron.

Revelation 19:11. “And I saw one, [you know,] seated upon a white horse, the armies of heaven followed Him, and out of this He was crowned with many crowns, King of kings and Lord of lords, and out of His mouth goes a two edge sword and so on.”

Now, watch also:

In other words, he never gets old. He died at age thirty three and he rose looking like… what? Seventeen years old. There he is.

Now, He’s telling you right there how He’s going to take over His Kingdom.

He’s going to have a day when every enemy is under His feet, and set to one side, He will reign in the Millennium, then you’re going to have a White Throne judgment, destroy everything that should be destroyed, and everything is going to be wonderful.

Now, He’s going to have His day, he doesn’t have His day right now. Man has his day, and it’s fortunate that man has Him who will have his day as His advocate. Because he has Him as his mediator which is to get Him in as the intercessor, which is to keep him in.

And as long as anybody needs keeping, which is until the day that he’s glorified, you’ve got somebody up there representing you.

So, don’t talk to me about Blood off the Mercy Seat and haven’t got this and haven’t got that. No way shape and form, because we do have Him. See?

And one day though, one day though He will no longer be that One. And then you watch the wrath really fall, when the 144,000 get sealed in, oh my. There’s nothing left but shock wave after shock wave till the whole thing is gone.

See, it’s going to be a tremendous day.

All right, now: this is man’s day, but He is promised His own day. Now, let us look at that in Luke 4.

Now, I’m running this back again over, because I trying to teach in such a way that you can become crystallized in your thinking, not to be crystallized in the idea like you add one drop of sugar to a solution, and the whole thing crystallizes then you’re shot.

You know, you kind of loose your elasticity. I’m talking about where you understand what is being preached concerning the hour in which we are in and what is going on.

Because, I’m sorry to say I’ve had too many phone calls where people… I’m sorry, they just don’t know what I’m saying. Now, I know what I’m saying.

And I hate to be a copy-cat, like Brother Branham said, “Well,” he said, “I know what I’m saying, maybe you don’t get what I’m saying, but I know what I’m saying, just can’t express it right.”

Well, I can’t go that far as Brother Branham. Because there’s lots of things he knows, that I don’t know. And if I did know, I’m sure that I would have some way to express them in a sense of my knowledge.

And then I’d say, “Well, I know it, and this is the best I can tell you.” We have different ways of doing things. Like you have different ways of doing it for me.

All right,

Now, you’ll notice that he had something to do which was vicarious. It had nothing to do with himself. Never said a thing about himself.

There was nothing to there to say about himself. It was what he was doing, and would continue to do.

Now, let’s go back to Isaiah 61 where’s that taken from, and watch It.

But he also has to proclaim and make evident the day of the vengeance of our God to comfort all that mourn. That’s what I read in the Psalms.

Why, we don’t have several different Bibles just because it’s repeated in different places and several different themes. It’s one theme. And you notice that Jesus even changed the words from the Book of Isaiah.

Why, because he was a prophet when he did it. And William Branham could come on the scene and he could take the Word of God that you and I say, “Hold it, William Branham, you’re not quoting It right,”

Absolutely, he’s quoting It right! Trouble is we’ve got too many chicken brains. Not enough eagle brains. Chicken brains pick on a manure pile. Follow the cow to see if they can pick out a little grain of wheat out of a plop.

Eagles get up there and get the fresh food. They look down, they see the whole picture.

Now, pardon my language, but I use that on purpose. If you don’t like it, well, just whiff a rose or something, a little smelly, eh? I don’t feel bad about an eagle.

I don’t feel me, so don’t you feel bad about me. Chickens and eagles are two different things. In fact, eagles don’t particularly care for chickens. Oh, they like them roasted, or something like that. Maybe not nice, but I never said I was a nice person.

I am a nice person when it comes to this. I won’t hold anything back from me if I can get it across with a four by four, or language which is even nice.

“Brother Vayle, why don’t you just use nice language.” You wouldn’t even get it, if I used nice language. You wouldn’t get it, you’d be still wondering what I’m saying. Now, there’s no reason to believe otherwise.

Look here, we showed you just what he said here from Luke, going to Isaiah. And that great Day is coming, and It said many, many times and many ways in Scripture and John saw It coming.

And he puts into intimate detail what lies there, because everybody’s messed up on Daniel’s Seventieth Week. Everybody but us believe it’s seven solid years. It’s not.

There are those who claim to believe this Message, like a brother down there in Clarksville, I think his church is. He followed Brother Branham. Every time Brother Branham went somewhere he was right on his footsteps.

Brother Branham taught the truth, and he taught his error. He was in error then, and he’s in error right now. Because, he said, “If Brother Branham came back he’d admit that I was right, and he was wrong.”

How could that be? Ever hear such hogwash? What’s he got for vindication? Fap! I can out vindicate him ten to one with my background. And I’ve got no vindication, at all, it’s all bad. I was doing what I shouldn’t have done.

Come on, what about if one of you guys here was a tremendously beautiful artist? Well, if combine the talents of both Marilyn and Brian we might get a little… well we’d get some awful good artwork.

I know that, because they’re very good. And we’d throw in little old Kim Applegate and for her age she’s fantastic.

Now, what if we got all these talents in here and you were able to do beautiful artwork, and somebody signed you on a home to do some artwork and you walked in the wrong door and put your lovely artwork on the wrong building? You’re messed up, aren’t you?

Well, that’s what I’m trying to show you here. You got to be in the groove here, you got to be in the position, in the place and all.

The thing has to line up, it doesn’t matter what talent and how wonderful a person has. It doesn’t matter how great a ministry or anything else. It’s got to line where God put it to line.

So, alright, we get along here now.

Now, look it here, the Day of the Lord is coming. It’s upon us as per the hour in which we live, which is judgment has struck and is beginning to… will strike even more.

Now, as I say, this fellow here that followed Brother Branham he got a ministry, what have you, anything else; I had a ministry what anybody else has, but it took the prophet to know what he taught us concerning this what he saw down the road, and his own place in it.

And he identified himself as Revelation 10:7 in the presence of Revelation 10:1. And he identified Revelation 10:1 as Revelation 5:1, which was the one seated on the Throne, and Revelation 1:12 is when he turned around to see the voice.

And he said, “That one that was in the flesh is here in Spirit,” and he proved it by the ministry.

So therefore, once the ministry vindicated God to the prophet, it vindicated the prophet to the people, and it brought the people right to God in order to find out what God had, and God had a revelation, He had a Message. Now, that’s where we’re at.

Okay, let’s go to Acts 3, so we can begin to see more of this. We’re talking about the Day of the Lord.

Now, here’s where the miracle was done through the ministry of the Holy Spirit that was in Peter, James and John and who else, as they went down to the Gate Beautiful.

Peter and John and this man was healed. And when Peter saw the people were wondering and trying to make something out of it, that they shouldn’t have made out of it, he pointed them to what was supposed to be made out of it.

That’s what Brother Branham did and they turned him down flat. Like Israel did here. Now, you see God did a great thing. Then the men were responsible to tell what it was all about.

William Branham could stand before the people and say, “I challenge you, bring me your worse cases, and [I’ll] guarantee healing.” And the person was healed.

So, what does that indicate? “Tell us prophet, tell us man, what does that sign indicate?” What is the voice of the sign?

Now when the prophet told what the voice of the sign was, they said, “Drop dead, because we’ve got as much as you, in fact we think we got more; because you’re an ornery uneducated hillbilly.”

Shee, I should have half the brains he had, and the smarts that go with it. Never mind even what the Holy Ghost gave him. Huh. You know, I guess it’s just the way a person’s appetite is.

I went into this place… oh, ten years ago now, ten years, yeah, it’s thirteen years ago now in Sweden. Solna. It’s very famous when you go there for a vacation. It’s a lovely resort country, but they got a cafeteria that every bus stops at, because it’s so good.

I’d image some people went in there and they looked at it and they said, “Well, fap.” They were used to hominy-grits which I’ve got nothing against, I just don’t want any, at least right now.

And I don’t know what else you’re used to, you know, maybe some sowbelly that’s been sort of done with beans and all, that’s alright if you like them, I don’t particular like it.

But they had this great big dish what I thought just had to be cold chilled crab meat, and I said two dollars of American money and I’ve been on a diet, I am going to bust my diet wide open and bust me wide open.

And you talk about going back and I kept filling my plate until, you know, my stomach said, “Whoa.” My tongue didn’t, and my mouth didn’t, my throat didn’t, everything else put the brakes on.

Now, what I’m trying to tell you is this: you see, what I saw was good for me, I loved it. It whetted my appetite. Did a lot of things for me. Somebody else come along, meant nothing. Well, that’s the way the prophet was.

We had the table spread. We have the perfect revelation of the hour. And there are people that haven’t got any time for it, because their appetite doesn’t run in God’s gourmet restaurant. They couldn’t stand the Manna.

I’m going to tell you something, I wouldn’t care if Manna tasted like coal-oil with a dash of turpentine. If I could get my hands on a barrel full of it, oh bless God, I can just feel everything rolling away now.

Aw, not just my burdens, I can feel the aches and the pains dissolving. I can see the twenty-twenty vision both forward and hind sight coming.

I can see my clothes not wearing out, though I wouldn’t feel bad about that, although some of my suits I just hated to see go down the drain, because I knew I’d never get another just like it, and some shoes I’ll never get them again.

So, my goodness me, just think, if I could get a hold of a barrel of Manna that tasted like coal-oil with a dash of turpentine and half a pound of cayenne pepper thrown in just to make my ears ring, I’d still stick my head in, and I’d slop that up so fast.

I’m going to tell you something brother/sister, what I’m trying to tell you here is: this Word which we have is for the Day of the Lord to get us out of here. And the prophet ministry is what vindicated this was the Word.

Now, John looked down there and saw it, see? And he saw God on this earth. And he saw a prophet on this earth, and these men say, “Well, you know, we’ve had such a great time over here in the chicken yard.”

Now, never did say I like picking droppings, wheat and stuff out of manure, I didn’t tell you that. I said kerosene and a dash of turpentine and a pound of red pepper.

But, I never said one thing about the manure heap. I just want to make sure that’s on tape, you see, somebody might think well, old Vayle goes for everything. Well, Vayle doesn’t go for everything.

Because you see, Israel said, “We loath this Manna.” And I don’t know one person who actually really enjoyed it as the Scripture says, “There’s many things you don’t enjoy now, but down the road, “Oh, the peaceable fruit of the spirit.”

I wouldn’t trade… listen, God is my Judge, I’m a carper and a complainer about many things, but I’m not a repiner. I don’t ever intend to go back to nothing.

And what I’ve gone through has done me good. Done me a lot of good. May tear me down physically, well praise God, get out of here quicker. I just hope I don’t drag out in little pieces.

All right, anyway we’re looking at this over here in the Book of Acts. And we saw this wonderful demonstration, and the people said, What is going on anyway?” They couldn’t figure it. And this man was supposed to tell them and he told them.

As I say, what voice spoke to a great man in the world today in Pentecost, when Brother Branham… that man that was full of devils fell at Brother Branham’s feet.

Brother Branham said, “Because, you Satan, because you challenged a servant of the Most High God, I command you to fall at my feet.”

And they claimed that the guy wove like a serpent, and he… just like this and fell right across Brother Branham’s feet. And they had to get two big cops to pull him off Brother Branham’s feet.

Now, that’s when the fellow said, a voice he said, “That’s Bible days, that’s what you’re supposed to do, you can do it.”

Where did Peter say, “Hey, bless God, let me tell you folk, I got a hold of a 220 live wire here and I just full of the fire of God, let me tell you, I’ll lay hands on you and you get gifts, you go around the world healing the sick, hallelujah, that’s the way God does it, bless God. Now, pass the plate.” Fifty dollars, fifty dollars there.

Oh, what about it? Don’t tell me, look, I was in Pentecost. Now, let me tell you another thing, you get a Free Methodist and he had this, he’d rottener than Pentecostal.

And you get a Southern Baptist get this, he’d be rottener than a Free Methodist. Because, people are people. They don’t change, unless God changes them.

Peter said, “I’m going to tell you about it. He said, “First of all, get this, it’s nothing that I have got intrinsically that did anything of this. I don’t have one ounce of it. I don’t have any wholeness.” He said, “I don’t have any power.”

So, Peter said, “I’ve got no power, I got no holiness. But, he said, what made this man walk?” The God of Abraham, the God of Isaac, of Jacob. The God of our fathers has glorified his Son Jesus,” now He’s glorified him, whom you delivered up and denied him in the presence of Pilate.”

Now listen, the One that he glorified had a former glory that He got back. Did you hear what I said? You weren’t listening. So I’ll play it again.

Now, we get this in the Book of John which I’m not going to fool with it… go into it right now, because I’ll save it till later.

But, this One that he glorified in a human state, was the One who was restored to the former glory which He had in His pre-existence. Now, like Father, like Son. If you didn’t catch it, well, just think about it.

Now, he said, “You denied the Holy One and the just, desired a murderer to be granted unto you.” When they turned down the end-time prophet, they turned down the Presence of God. What were they desiring?

Now, don’t tell me they’re not desiring something. Because these people here desired God. And they changed him for a murderer. The Bible…

Brother Branham correctly said from the Word of God, “You don’t take the Seal of the Spirit, you’ll take the seal of the antichrist.” You don’t take the mark of God, you take mark of the antichrist. You got your choice.

Now, he said, “You killed the Prince of life, whom God hath raised from the dead; whereof we are witnesses. And his name through faith, his name has made this man strong, whom you see and know.

Then he goes on down here, and he said: “Now brethren, I know that through ignorance you did it, as did your rulers also. But those things, which God before had showed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, he has fulfilled.”

You say, “Now, just a minute, what if at this end-time people ignorantly turned down God? I got news for you, it’s over! It’s run out! Genesis 3:22 has run out. See? It’s gone!

There’s no… Hebrews 6 is in order. There is no more repentance. So the last group are stuck. You say, “I don’t think that’s nice.” Well, it doesn’t really matter what you and I think.

Let’s just find out something over here.

Now listen, Jesus said that at age thirty-three and a half. Thirty-three and a half years later it was gone. 1963 the Seals opened. Thirty-three and a half years brings it to 1986.

Knock off, or add on a year or two, because I don’t know dates. Now I’m just guessing, just making a little remarks. Take the three and a half, we’re right at the door brother/sister, the Day of the Lord.

Now, he says here, “I know they’re ignorant, but those things, which God before had showed by the mouth of all his prophets, that Christ should suffer, is fulfilled.

But, this time He’s not going to suffer. This time He gets His day, the hour of reckoning is here.

“Repent therefore, and be converted, that your sins may be blotted out, when times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord. And he shall send Jesus Christ, which before proclaimed unto you”.

In other words, the one that you look for, that died, he’s going to come back. “But he can’t do it, for the heavens will keep him there until times of restoration of all things which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began.”

Now, it tells you he can’t come down and set his foot upon earth, not until the enemies are made the footstool. See?

And when He does come, He’s got a Bride coming with Him. She’s going to reign and rule.

“For Moses truly said to the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him [you’ll] hear in all things whatever he’ll say to you.

Now, It doesn’t say he’s already said it all, because at that point he hadn’t said it all. Paul hadn’t even brought the Word to the Gentiles. And John followed Paul and wrote the Book of Revelation.

And Paul said in Hebrews 12, He’s going to talk again, and he explained how He talked in the prophets, so He’s got to come a way of a prophet again.

And when He does, It says, “Our God a consuming fire,” sets up His Kingdom. That’s the time that everybody that doesn’t listen is destroyed.

How are you going to have a Millennium then full of people that standing here living outside of a glorified group? I’d like to know. Why, the days of Gentiles are over. The 144,000 is in, what’s left? Nothing!

Come on, anybody can add two and two and make four for land’s sake. We’re not deaf, dumb and stupid any longer.

Yet people still puzzle, is it going to be this? It’s in the Scripture the prophet told you, here it is laid out in front of you. The Gentiles are finished. The Jews are finished. What’s left?

He’s left with the Bride. Man alive, I just can’t see… Look, maybe I’m stupid, just forgive me, but that’s alright, I’m just going to stay stupid, I can’t help it. My brains just can’t go any other way then what I see here.

“It’ll come to soul every pass, that won’t hear that prophet, shall be destroyed among the people.”

What prophet? That one that you killed, and now He’s raised up. Who said He’s not a Prophet? See, that’s where they missed out.

They said, “Well, he’s a prophet, but then he’s no longer prophet, so they missed the Book of Luke entirely; the days when the Son of man appears when he’s prophet again.

Now, how is he going to be prophet? He can’t come down in the flesh and be Prophet, because when He comes down He’ll be taking over. What’s the prophet’s hour when you take over?

What’s a prophet like, when somebody knocks at the door, and you say, “Who is it?” And you stick your head in and ‘boing’ with a four by four. What’s to prophesy? That’s how He’s coming in destruction.

What’s to prophesy? I don’t understand people. Always too late. Always too late. “Oh, oh, He’ll do this.” Oh no He won’t, He’s done it.

All right, Day of the Lord.

Now notice, he mentions Samuel. Elijah is going to restore. He talks about Moses. Talks about Samuel. Talks about Jesus as deliverance.

“Now, you’re the children of the prophets, and of the covenant which God made with our fathers, saying unto Abraham, And in thy seed shall all the kindreds of the earth be blessed.” Now, that was a prophecy, that’s fulfilled.

That’s not to come, that’s finished. The Jews think it’s going to come, they’re wrong. The only future fulfillment is in the form of the glorified. It’s a continuing promise.

“Unto you first God, having raised up his Son sent him to bless you…”

Now, he’s talking about the one that died was raised up and came to them. How? In the Form of the Holy Spirit.

And Brother Branham said, “God’s got to raise Him again to the Gentiles,” and He’s done it. Who did the Pillar of Fire come to? Paul, Jew.

Knowing God raised him up again, what’s He going to do? Going to send Him to the Gentiles, because there’s got to be a people. There’s got to be resurrection. There’s got to be a Rapture.

People just let their minds go blank, they don’t want to pay any attention. But, here It is, the same One that was here in the form of the flesh, is here in the Pillar of Fire, came down when a prophet was on earth.

Now, He’s sent to bless the Gentiles the same as Israel as He wanted to turn Israel as a nation and they wouldn’t come.

Now, He’s down here turning the last of the Gentiles away from iniquity. Right, raised up to this hour. Okay, so there we see He’s having His Day.

Now, John said here than in plain English, using my English of course, not drawing conclusion, but just talking about it, John saw man’s day ending and the Day of the Lord coming into view.

So then, the Book of Revelation is a Book of prophecy exactly as It’s claimed to be by John.

It’s a Book of revelation, it’s a juncture, because it shows one ending and another coming into view; and Brother Branham said, “It takes a prophet to turn a corner.” He said, “It’s a juncture period.”

So therefore, there was a prophet on the scene before there could be this literal Day of the Son of man come into view, and come into being.

It is a prophetic declaration of the time that elapses as man days ends in judgment, and God’s day comes in the Millennium as we see It in Revelation 19:11 to chapter 20:1-6 which we won’t go into, because we read It many times. You should know It by now; I’m sure you do.

All right, let’s go to Malachi and see what we’re looking at. Because here we have the keys. Okay, in,

Now, what’s he doing? He’s giving somebody a scrub down. See, somebody’s getting a bath, kind that will take the hide right off you almost.

Till absolutely purge you as you never knew you could purged, and the purging is by fire. That’s not the Lake of Fire! It’s only one kind of fire, that’s Holy Ghost Fire brother/sister, let’s face it.

All right, and the “washing of waters by the Word.”

Now:

Now, come on, what offering in righteousness are they going to offer, a lamb? Are they going to bring blood again? There’s no more shedding of blood, it’s all over. There’s no more lambs to be offered, it’s all over. It’s gone!

Antitype has washed out conclusively once and for all every type.

Now, how they going to offer unto God in righteousness? I don’t care what they offer, it’s not what they offered, it’s how they offered! See, that’s the scene.

Go back to Genesis, Scripture says that Abel that brought an offering of the sheep. And Cain also brought an offering of the earth. A first-fruit offering.

And God had respect to Abel’s offering, but not to Cain’s. Now why? Because, He said, “Thou hast rightly offered, but thou has not rightly divided.”

Paul said, “Study to show thyself approved unto God,” See, rightly dividing the Word of truth. “A workman need not be ashamed of rightly dividing the Word of truth.”

Now, the workman which was as Cain was ashamed before God. Killed his brother.

Now look, let’s go to the Book of Revelation 3, and let’s understand this.

Now, at the same time over here in,

Now, you see then, what was it? The offering in righteousness. We’ll go back there to Malachi 3, “An offering in righteousness.” Isn’t then the precisely of what they are doing, but the fact that it is Scriptural in understanding and an application.

In other words as Brother Branham said, “Abel had the revelation and Cain didn’t.” That’s just what we’re looking at. See?

All right, we go to verse,

Now, who’s served God? Abel did. Who didn’t serve God? Cain didn’t serve God. All right listen, who’s deed was unrighteous? Cain’s was unrighteous.

Now, you go to 1 John 3, you get the picture there.

Now, It tells you that they’ll be turned, and when they are turned, and only then, will there be an offering to God? In other words, worship to God will only be acceptable under certain conditions.

Now, let’s get this flat brother/sister, you and I think we’re worship God here. Aw, come on, this is just a type to what we’re going to get into. Wait when we’re gathered around the Throne. Wait where we’re in that other land.

I’m not saying this worship isn’t real, don’t get me wrong there, I’m just telling you flat, in this form we are liable to errors. And that’s what happened ever since the Garden of Eden.

The missed application of the Word due to a wrong revelation. It was a wrong revelation that got this world off track, it’s a right revelation that’s going to put the world back on track. See?

See, man could have just gone down the road for six thousand years, and then got glorified. Got into sin. Now man’s in sin six thousand years, God’s going to get him out, and the heart is going to be turned back.

Now watch, He says here:

Now, over here It says, they’ll offer unto God a righteous sacrifice, or offering. Now, we’re going to do the same thing.

Now, our sacrifice is from our mouths. Bible calls it ‘calves of our lips’, the fruit of the lips. How can you offer back to God that which is off the Word? God won’t take it.

Now:

Now, He said in that day of the turning of the hearts back, is the same day that God comes forth as destroyer. Now, you do what you want about it.

But that’s what It says, and that’s where people get plumb off a track. They want to put Elijah way back to the Jews or someplace else he doesn’t belong there.

Okay, now God says, “that this people are His jewels, He’s going to spare them.”

Now, let’s go to Luke 17:24. And I’ll skip some of these things here, because we’ve gone in them before.

Now watch what happens:

Not a twenty four hour period, in that time, which is also called a season. And according to the Book of Isaiah it’s a period of time. Now in that period of time: “when the Son of man is revealed.”

Now:

Now remember, when you’re dealing with this, you’re dealing with Exodus. And when you deal with Lot’s wife, you’re dealing with the murmuring of Israel.

And Israel said, “It would better to be in Egypt, at least there’s good food there. “I can’t stand this Manna, I’m so used to the onions and the garlic and the fried liver, and all the good things we used to have down there when the River Nile overflowed it was just beautiful, eat all those good things there, they were so pungent and so wonderful. Oh, this Manna is too dull.”

Oh, it’s too dull you people who believe this Message, “We want to go back and run around and jump and scream and talk in tongues and lay hands on the sick… that’s fine, prophesying, do everything.”

Go ahead and do it, be my guest, but don’t do it around here. You want to do it we’ll have a little room back there and you just see what happens. I’ll even go with you. I’m not chicken, I’m eagle. I won’t worry about it, I’ll just go in there with you.

You see, because I know, I’ve been in the realm of gifts. Something comes it comes, doesn’t come, doesn’t come. I’m going to force nothing. No.

You say, “A guy like you?” Sure, guy just like me.

Don’t sell me short, I’m as nervous as a cat on a hot brick because of what I go through, but I can just suddenly die just like this and stand right still. Don’t think I can’t, because I can. Sure. Yep.

Don’t sell the things of God short brother/sister. It’s dangerous.

Listen, she turned back. Yeah.

Now:

He that becomes a legalist and tries to work out some kind of a program to make it, ain’t going to make it. You’re shot before you’re finished.

“Oh, I sing that song Brother Vayle, we are climbing Jacob’s ladder, ladder.” Well, go ahead and try to climb it, because unless God lets down then you ain’t going to climb it. Oh, these legalists they’ve got it all down pat. Yep!

“Oh, we got to pray so many hours and do this and do that, even we’ve got a book at the back where you can write your testimony in.”

I should tell you some of funny things I know, but you might laugh yourself to death, and I want you alive for a while. Oh, brother/sister, don’t know what Brother Branham came on the scene for.

They haven’t the least… the foggiest idea. Don’t know what this Word is all about, haven’t got the foggiest idea. Just because I let them know flat it’s not character, it’s not prayer, not this and not that. They say, “Well, Vayle doesn’t believe in that.”

So, I’d make a test and say, “Raise your hands, how many of you guys pray with your wives twice a day?” Nobody in the room raises their hands.

I could go to all the preachers round about the country that say they believe this Message, then say I don’t believe in prayer? Somebody’s nuts and it sure ain’t me. Got a bunch of liars out there.

Brother Branham called them that. He said, “If you believe this Word [he said] you’d act it.”

And the first thing a man does he tells lies. Second thing he does, he gets in immoral sex.

A man that lies, that’s absolute fabricated prevarications that he indulges in, that’s his nature, and a man that’s out there sexual, you know that they’ve got no more Holy Ghost than nothing. There’s no way.

Because there comes a day that you’re born again, you’d stop that stuff. You’d just get out of it. Bible tells you flat, yep, tells you…

Listen, I don’t want to belabor that subject I’ve gone into time after time. The first thing the Bible says without her, outside the New Jerusalem at the time the Seals are read, and the Seals are brought to our attention the 22 chapter.

It just gives you an idea what It says is not going to make it. Tells you plumb flat there. It said:

And people say, “Well, it really doesn’t matter.” Ha, doesn’t matter? You’re gone. You say. “Well, what can I do?”

Well, I’ve dealt with homosexuals, a friend of mine down south was a nice guy, but dealt with a woman years ago, got delivered, Paul said, “Such were some of you.” That’s you’ve got right here, look it here.

Luke 17:

Now, It tells you then here categorically that the Lord has a specific Day, a specific period of time. Let’s go to,

All right, just a minute now, there’s no more days left after Rapture for the Gentiles, except destruction, all there’s left is three and a half years.

So, he tells you, at that time the Day of the Lord, which John saw was the last, there’s going to be a resurrection.

Okay, let’s go to,

Now, look what he’s all got bundled in there, that’s not a twenty four hour period, that’s a time. That’s a time element in there.

Let’s go back to,

Now, just a minute, that tells you Resurrection. That’s not Rapture. He doesn’t set foot on this earth without the Bride! So, what’s he telling you? He’s telling what It says in the Book of Corinthians.

What Brother Branham said in Thessalonians. He comes down, sets Himself at the Head of the Church. It’s the same Spirit that was in Christ is talking now, and is going to raise the dead.

As Brother Branham said, “The voice that screamed out to Lazarus, ‘Come forth’.”

The same Voice screamed upon Calvary and woke the sleeping Bride. Old Testament. That same Voice brought them out. Alright, there you got it.

Let’s go to John 8:56. Now, that’s the Day of the Lord we’re talking about brother/sister, last day. Last day, last period of time.

Okay, John 12, is repeating.

But He’s not Savior now. He’s coming into full Judge. At the time that He is Prophet there’s still a proclamation, the same Savior proclaiming the day of wrath, the Day of the Lord, you still got time to run, but pretty soon you won’t have time to run.

Because, when that prophecy is expired then the Voice raises the dead. In the meantime you got a Shout. See, okay.

Now listen, there’s double condemnation because He’s here repeating Himself. Raised up to Israel, raised up to the Gentile, and says the same thing, “He that doesn’t hear will be destroyed.”

Now, he tells you in Hebrews 12, what that’s all about.

What’s going to do it? The ‘Voice’! What starts the Resurrection; Voice, earthquake. See? Everything that is shaken down, it’s over!

What happens next? We receive a kingdom. How? Through a God that’s a Consuming Fire. Pillar of Fire is here.

Brother Branham said, “Pillar of Fire leads to the Millennium.” What’s standing here to raise the dead?

The One, the Pillar of Fire. What One is that? The same one in human flesh. Almighty God in human flesh, because God incarnated Himself, made Himself a body then went into it.

Okay, that’s the same as Revelation now, not the same as, but he said the same thing in Revelation 22:19, says, don’t add or take a Word.

Let’s go back to,

All right, at that time. Now what time is that? The word in season. It doesn’t say, “at that time, one day.” It’s a season. That hour, signifying that things were coming to pass.

Now let’s go to Revelation 11, again which I just read. You get the same thing over again.

It’s here, it’s what John saw looking down there. The whole thing coming not to an impasse, but to a pass.

Notice what it says in,

The season, see, It tells you. The season for what? The season when the countdown comes, it goes plumb pass the Millennium to the Lake of Fire, to New Jerusalem. That’s what John saw.

Now, we’re in that very hour. People don’t understand that, I don’t know, I can’t figure it. Now, you can’t stop there. See? Just say, “Look at that Great Day is coming a wrath.”

You got to remember; we’ve already taken up with here in Luke 17:28 and 29. It tells you right there, that that’s based on Genesis 18, the visitation of Elohim to this earth. See?

That’s Malachi, when the wrath of God falls, when He’s here to bring about the day of destruction, He’s here to give us Eternal Life and immortality.

Now, that takes us to,

Then in the 2nd chapter verse 1, Paul says:

Now that Brother Branham said, and that’s categorically,

And God descending in the form of the Holy Spirit which he is in order to bring about what we’re looking at. The Lord descending here with those seven mighty messengers. That’s right.

Brother Branham saw it, bore witness to it, opened the Seals, brought us into the Message. See?

Now, if you want to do yourself some reading, which I’m not going to do for you, maybe some other time, I want you to read the ‘Breach’ page 106 and go to about 108, 109 somewhere in there. You’ll hear what I’m going…

Now, we’re looking then at the Day of the Lord wherein we see judgment and we see a final measure of grace which is poured out to get a people ready to put her in a Rapture to raise the dead and take us away, and we see with it the combination of destruction.

Alright, that is then prophet, judge, and prophet, or prophet and judge, and mercy and judgment.

Now, we’ve already mentioned this morning and we mentioned in time pass, so I can just clear this up in a hurry, for you. Elohim coming down at the time of Sodom where there’s a repeat brought mercy and It brought judgment. You cannot bypass it.

Malachi, the 4th chapter, which we will look at, because that’s Brother Branham’s great chapter.

Now It tells you frankly all the proud, all the wicked are going to be stubble. Now listen, what is stubble? It’s the same as ‘chaff ‘, when the wheat is gathered in the garner, the chaff and the stubble is burned.

So, you know right now that this fire cannot come until the Bride is out of the way. Now, how then can the Gentiles and the fundamentalists say that Elijah goes to the Jews unless they want everybody to burn?

Now, It tells you that it is going to burn. Now remember, that is the Book of Matthew 3:11, now John says:

There It tells you, harvest is over. The world cannot even burn till the 144,000 are in. Now watch, judgment striking the earth.

Now:

All right, the turning of the hearts delay the curse until it’s finalized in this last hour.

All right, now listen, Abraham said at the hour that Elohim came upon earth here, said, “Shall not the judge of all the earth do right?”

Now, He was the Prophet, He was Judge. Now, He was Prophet turned Judge, then He went down to Sodom as Judge turned King and destroyed, because a judge does not execute his own decree, it takes the force of the law and the land.

And remember, Elohim is ‘dunamis’. He is power Himself. So, it is now.

So listen: the Sixth Seal has already broken, it broke in March of 1965, two years after March of 1963. Two years later.

We’ve had eighteen years since the Sixth Seal broke, and twenty years since the revelation of the Seals. Or, we have had Revelation 10:1 for eighteen solid years, a little bit more. Since 1965 there’s been silence, yep, silence was almost half an hour.

Which is roughly twenty years, ten months which God does everything as sevens and threes, twenty one year’s roughly, give or take, see. You don’t have to set twenty one exactly.

So, we’ve had twenty years since the Seventh Seal opened, which is Revelation 10:1-7. Twenty one year’s takes us to 1984 as from ’63, 1986 as from ’65, who knows? It’s just later than you think.

See, what I’m trying to get you to understand brother/sister, you’re not looking down the corridor of time anymore looking for the Day of the Lord, you’re in It. You’re into It.

There’s nothing that you can do about it, because He said He is the Son of man, and that’s why He’s Judge.

Now, we could take Scripture this morning, got a concordance, how to use a concordance, because my mind fails me, I can’t tell you where everything in the Bible is.

But, the Word of God specifically states that God executes His Own commandments. He is the Executor. He stands behind His Word to perform It. Now, there is no way that this world is going to escape judgment.

And there is no way the Bride is going to be in judgment, because God has set the decree, and put His Seal to It. There will not be one Bride that’s going to be destroyed, there’ll not be one hair of the head fall. God’s going to take care of her.

At the same time let’s understand this is in that hour of the Day of the Husband. The Day of the great Judge that Brother Branham saw through the eyes of the prophet John with the Holy Spirit telling him what it was.

Now, we’re right here at this end-time brother/sister, and there’s nothing that anybody is going to change it. The decree has been set.

When Brother Branham preached that sermon on the Rapture, never forget, he said three times, “Thus it has been spoken, and thus it will be done.” So, we’re at the very end time.

You say, “Well, it could go on a few years.”

Sure it could, make no mistake about it. I stand with the prophet on that why he told us during the Seals, why he said, “It could be ten years, twenty five, or a hundred, and yet maybe tomorrow morning.”

Now, I figure that couldn’t happen tomorrow morning. But one of these mornings, yep, one of these mornings around nine o’clock, there’s a Bride is going to get out of America.

In the meantime, I’m not worried whether it’s nine o’clock, or any other o’clock. There’s just one concern I’ve got, and that’s what Paul [Peter] said, “Make you calling an election sure.”

I don’t know any other way I can do it, except believe His Word. I don’t know any other way I can do it. Because, I never asked to get in this world, I don’t ask to get taken out of this world really, I can’t take myself in or out.

There’s no way I can put myself in the plan of God. But, if I’m in that plan of God, what befalls me, which is under grace and mercy that judgment the seat is still open, which at this hour is actually also a judgment seat. See?

Because a Judge of all the earth declaring, and the Judge of all the earth through the prophet said, “1965 of March the earthquake on the West Coast opened the Sixth Seal.”

Now, the Sixth Seal contained three and a half years of great tribulation. The Saints better be getting out of here pretty soon, brother/sister. See?

You say, “Does that mean the Forth Seal is completely gone?” No! No, see, some Seal’s overlap. And the Seventh Seal is revelatory, that’s His Coming. Seven Seal, Revelation 10:1-7.

I don’t care what anybody tells you, they’re going to quote you and say, “Well, Brother Branham said, “It wasn’t opened.” They misunderstand what he’s saying.

They’re going to tell you this, they’re going to tell you that, you go back to what he said when it came to the definitive, the Seventh Seal is Revelation 10:1-7.

And William Branham stood here when that One came down with those mighty Messengers. Bringing judgment, the Judge. Tell me what else should He bring? An avenging for a Bride.

Tell me what else should she get, but the inheritance with her Husband, because it’s His Day that’s on the scene. See? I want to encourage you brother/sister, don’t you ever let yourself slack in this Word.

Now, don’t get ideas and run with it, because that’s the thing that some people do. And they just love to come and have… help me prorogate it. Well you know, just stop and say a bit, “Maybe I’ve got an ounce of pride too. Old Lee Vayle may have something in here it’s a little bit of pride.”

I got my soap-box, you get yours. You follow what I mean? Oh yeah. But, don’t sell anything short, that Day is here, and whether you or I or anybody else has a revelation, the prophet has already had one.

And he said, “If we’re not Bride, there’s a Bride out there somewhere, and by the grace of God I won’t stand in her way.” See?

Stay with this Word right down the line, because you haven’t got much time left. Look, I know time seems to drag on your hands. Look, come on, I understand that, but it’s accelerated, who would have believe that we’re past the middle of June.

Which June is the sixth month of 1983. Tell me where has it gone? We will have been here in August a year. Tell me where it’s gone?

Now, you look back, and maybe there was a bit of a drag, but I want to tell you what: the closer you get down the road, the faster that time’s going. That’s that exponential curve in there, and it’s accelerated.

So, there it is brother/sister, you’re nearer than when you first believed, you’re a whole lot closer.

And whether anybody wants to believe it or not, that One is here, and He proved that He was the Judge by discerning the thoughts and intents of men’s hearts. He proved who He was, showed it right down the line.

Now, if you’re hooked up to Him this morning, in other words, you’ve got your union with Him through the baptism with the Holy Ghost, which is a faith proposition which you know doesn’t come by sensation, and doesn’t come by this, come by that.

It’s absolutely something you keep moving up into all the time, because like a little child born, now you’re born again, you’ve been moving up, moving up the church has been moving up, and we’re moving right up in this hour.

Let’s face it, I don’t know how It’ll break upon us, I don’t know, because look, I’m human like you are. And even the prophet didn’t tell us everything, because what could he tell us, other than just a certain amount, because we wouldn’t be able to receive it anyway.

But, how do you begin to explain, and how will it be when that glory begins to break instantaneously of a people getting ready to go away? How will you feel when there’s nobody else to come in?
