Pius XII and Hitler: Facts, not Fiction

I am discussing Pius XII on Amy Welborn's website. Need some help defending him. Take a look: http://amywelborn.typepad.com/openbook/2003/08/pius_xii.html

I have been looking at the 2 sides of the story and being born-catholic myself, I try to make sense of things! Let's look at the past works of the catholic church and go from there. No other church killed so many people that would not join their beliefs, no other church burned, killed and tortured so many people for simply having a copy of the bible, which brings me to why. Why would the catholic church hunt down, persecute and kill christians who want to read the bible? And this is the conclusion that I have come to: People who read the bible might learn the "Truth". The truth about Mary, she was definitly blessed among woman but she was not sinless(Luke 1:46)and she did have children after Jesus (I do agree that she was a virgin when Jesus was concieved of the Holy Spirit)The bible says Jesus was the first born.(Luke 2:7) Wouldn't he be the only born. Mary had 5 sons (including Jesus)and at least 2 sisters.(Mark 6:3-4) (Matthew 13:55-56)Mary is not the way to salvation, Jesus is the Way. "Jesus said; I am the way, and the truth, and the life; no one comes to the Father but through me." ( Have you noticed how Mary is not mentionned here? Jeremiah 7:18 says: " The children gather wood, and the fathers kindle the fire, and the women knead their dough, to make cakes to the queen of heaven, and to pour out drink offerings unto other gods, that they may provoke me to anger." This one speaks for itself.
Here's another one that I found interesting. Matthew 23:9 "And call no man your father upon the earth: for one is your Father, which is in heaven." (How do we call priests???) If you can find me where it mentions "Purgatory" in the bible I will believe! From what I have read, there are 2 sides: Gog and the Devil, Good and Bad, not Good, Bad and not so bad. I urge you friend to read your bible, and learn the truth, not what you were taught since you were young. Check out also these verses: John 3:3, John 3:16,Roman 10:8-10, 2Timothy 2:15. I am not writing this to be hateful, I hope and pray that you will see the light!
God Bless

Wow, Ricky! Not sure what you've been reading, but clearly you've only been looking at one side of the issue. Just one question: The Catholic church wrote the Bible and kept it for 1,500 years. If the Catholic Church really wanted to "get rid of the Bible", then why didn't they? It might interest you that Bibles were very expensive in the dark ages, yet Catholic churches kept a copy for parishioners at all times. I'm not sure who fed you this stuff, but you should really consider something: You are attacking the Church founded by Christ and supporting one founded by Luther (a mere man with many obvious faults). Hmmm . . .

A couple of other thoughts: Luther removed any books mentioning the existence of Purgatory from your Bible, except James. Matthew 23 also says "Call no one teacher". And if you want to be so literal, how do you contend with "If you do not eat my flesh and drink my blood you have no life in you?" I've studied the Bible much, much more than you have, Rick, and I would recommend that you read some Catholic works as well, instead of just protestant works. Over the course of the next month or so, I'll begin explaining on this blog where your errors are - I hope you'll keep reading and let me know your thoughts!

God bless,
Jay

Ricky,

You say that you were "born Catholic", that being so doesn't make you an authority of the Catholic Church nor its history. Having spent time in the college environment studying philosophy, theology, rhetorical arguments, and history, I will attempt to make some sense of your comments.

First, you do realize that you have posted your comment under an article about Pius XII and the Jews? None of your points address this issue, but you seem to believe the article to be untrue.

Let me provide you with some "documented" historical facts:

1) In Hungary, an estimated 80,000 baptismal certificates were issued by Church authorities to Jews. In other areas of Eastern Europe the Vatican escape network (organised via Bulgaria by the Nuncio Roncalli - later John XXIII) has impressed those writers who have studied the subject, with the effectiveness of the Church's rescue operation. David Herstig concludes his book on the subject thus:

"Those rescued by Pius are today living all over the world. There went to Israel alone from Romania 360,000 to the year 1965."

The vindication of Pius XII has been established principally by Jewish writers and from Israeli archives. It is now established that the Pope supervised a rescue network which saved 860,000 Jewish lives—more than all the international agencies put together.

2) After the war the Chief Rabbi of Israel thanked Pius XII for what he had done. The Chief Rabbi of Rome went one step further. He became a Catholic. He took the name Eugenio (Pius XII's baptismal name).

3) The general assistance of the Vatican to Jews during World War II is fully documented, with chapter and verse, in the archives of both the Vatican and the Jewish organizations, such as the World Jewish Congress and the American Jewish Committee, not to speak of the official U.S. War Refugee Board.

I will address your other concerns in some upcoming articles.

Some responses to Ricky's thoughts:

The Brothers and Sisters of Jesus

I noticed Jay says the Catholic church kept the Bible for 1,500 years. Yes indeed there were copies in the catholic Church but lets understand they weren't and never were the whole church though they tried to be. When created NO BY PETER who never entered Rome, the Catholic church began as an injunction by Ceasar, who after trying to kill them decided to join them. Making Rome the capital were Peter had clearly remained in Jerusalemm which was until the 400's there abouts was mentioned as the church birht place and capital. But I will not bring facts into such a discussion it has been my only experience that Catholics believe what thhy are told to believe regardless of facts. So prove me wrong ... I dare you! Give me facts apart from church writtings years later to prove something that was was clearly contradicted in the time it suggest. Not everything about Catholicism is wrong but it is a business, worth 100's of billions or more and you can't keep the income if you start telling the truth. See Machiavelli's "the Prince" how to appear and how to be!

Don,
Your theories are way out there. Interestingly enough, virtually no protestant theologians would agree with you either. Why don't you first read some of the other articles on this site, which have tons of historical and Biblical proofs of the papacy and then read some history. The Early Church Fathers consistently discuss the papacy, the Catholic Church and Rome - even in protestant versions of their writings. Talk to a real protestant scholar - he'll tell you you're crazy. By the way, the Bible wasn't even compiled until 300 AD - hundreds of years later.

This an illusion planted by the devil to keep protestants out of the Church God founded and into their man-made churches that don't have the Sacraments. Do some homework, Don, especially before you start spouting nonsense like this.

By the way, we can prove that the Church was founded by Jesus (Matt 16:18) and that it is the "Pillar of Truth" (1 Tim 3:15) and "the gates of hell will not prevail against it" (Matt 16:18). In addition, this article and this article clearly show the Biblical basis for the papacy.

Now, show me where the Bible proves your points, Don. You say I can't use the Early Church Fathers, so you can't either - where does the Bible teach your nonsense? Please directly answer the question.

God bless,
Jay

It's difficult to answer insane allegations with no basis in truth. We expect you to have something to back it up.

hitler to me is a kind of interesting guy.he did all of these things and then all along he was one of them people that he killed for years because they were different.but thats just me.sometimes i think hitler was a crazy freak for doing that to all of these good people that did nothing to him except for having their beleifs.

Is there such a place as purgatory?

No, there isn’t such a place and there has never, ever been. It is a lie of the devil. One of his strategies to deceive and devour souls who believe that they will, after this life, have a chance to pay for their sins from this life before judgement.

Can you imagine living with a philosophy or doctrine that allows you do as you will, no matter what evil deeds you commit, and then when you die, off you go to purgatory for a while to be purged, (cleaned) by some miraculous power of God, of all your sins so that you can then enter into the Kingdom of God.

Is that the kind of God we serve? Not likely! There is nothing righteous about that form of justice. Why would Christians then try their utmost best to live a sanctified life when Roman Catholics can do what they want and still receive the same reward. Are they privileged beyond reality. My God who wrote the Holy Bible would never allow it. But, as Catholics say, they have three gods who obviously, are as evil as they are. In fact, they have a multitude of saints including Mary and Joseph to whom they run to in ‘prayer’ for help if their gods will not help them or give them what they want. Mary and Joseph are in Heaven awaiting the resurrection when they will return at the time of the rapture to first pick up their corporal body, which will be changed into a theophany body. They are currently in a celestial body. In other words, they can walk through solids. ‘If ‘, you could see them, they would appear as spirits. That’s because their bodies are still in the grave. That is why they come back and get their bodies out of the earth and become as Adam and Eve were before the fall of man. Let’s face it. Why would Mary bother with the unbelieving Roman Catholic idolaters when she could stay in Heaven, rejoicing with the other New Testament saint waiting for to meet her husband to be, Jesus who currently sits on the mercy seat listening to the accuser of the Saints. She was a believer and she died after the first resurrection and now awaits the perfecting of the Bride which will be at the time of the rapture.

There Roman Catholic church also provides absolution of sin simply by confessing it to a man. He calls himself a priest and want all to call him ‘father’. (See Matthew 23; 9) He must have greater power than God since God had to send his Son to be killed as a sacrifice for our sins, while this sinner sits in a box with the confessor ‘Priest’, separated by a screen, and afterwards tells them to do a penance by saying a couple of ‘Hail Mary’s’ or repeat a ‘magic’ ritual or liturgy a couple of times. They then leave, free to carry on doing the same things again and again and again. They have a form of Godliness but deny the power thereof.

They can even buy indulgences from the Roman Catholic Church which permits them to kill and do all manner of wickedness without affecting their salvation.

Believe it or not, this Pagan Institution, with their iron fist, have convinced millions of souls over two centuries, that there is still hope after death for sinners, who at the time of death, were consciously unfit for the abodes of the blest. For this purpose a middle state has been feigned, in which, by means of purgatorial pains, guilt unresolved in time may in a future world be purged away, and the soul be made fit for final blessedness and enter to the Kingdom of God.

Can you believe that they call themselves the Bride of Jesus Christ.
The Bride of God is pure and righteous and are virtuous. They stand on the unadulterated Word of God and purge themselves every living moment of their lives. They do not need a place like Purgatory and know that it does not exist. Man is given one chance to live and accept God’s Word and live by it religiously to the best of their ability, fighting and resisting Satans attempts to tempt and seduce them into unbelief.

Hebrews 9; 27 clearly tell us that man is appointed once to live, but after this, the judgement. No mention of purgatory or anyplace for a second chance or for cleaning oneself up. That you must do here in this life.

Now, when a sinner dies without accepting the gift of salvation, their soul will be cast away, and will be in torment until the day, after the millennium, when the sinner return to earth again for the judgement. And they will receive a immortal body, a immortal body that cannot die, and will be cast away into outer darkness where there will be weeping and wailing, and gnashing of teeth. They’ll be cast into hell where the fire is never quenched forever and ever until they are eventually totally consumed and exist no longer. Matthew 13; 38-43.

Flee from that pagan institution into the loving arms of Jesus.

Was it really an ‘apple’ that Adam and Eve ate?

This is a very important question! The biblical answer will explain much and you will begin to get a little more color in your picture of life.

Contrary to popular belief, no, it wasn’t a apple nor was it any other type of fruit you’d by at the green grocer. Satan is extremely happy about the confusion as far as this ‘apple’ smokescreen goes.

Nowhere in the scripture does it indicate that it was a apple or any literal fruit that you would expect to sink your teeth into.

To answer this, I’m going to direct you to scriptures that will speak for themselves and where possible, quote the Holy Ghost revealed explanations of God’s prophet, as I intend to do throughout these answers.
Far be it from me to assume any credit for the explanations and revelations you are about to experience.
Praise and thank God for the humble manner in which His prophet conducted God’s work.

Genesis 1: 26-28 tells of God creating ‘man’ in His image, male and female he created them both in the one body of man. The man, God later called Adam. Meaning, Man. Earth, red earth.

God told man and woman to multiply and replenish the earth, though He had not told them how to reproduce. Eve was still in Adam at this time.

Let’s set the scene. Turn to Genesis 2: 8 & 9. It’s at the time when Adam was first placed in a garden that God had planted Eastward in Eden.
Adam was living in perfect harmony with God. It was all pure and holy. There was no sin and no defilement.
In that garden, God had made trees that are pleasant to the sight and good for food.
In the midst of the garden, God planted the ‘tree of life’ and also, the ‘tree of the knowledge of good and evil.’

Chapter 2:16 & 17. tells us that God, having placed Adam now in the Garden of Eden to dress it and keep it, commands Adam that he can eat freely of all the trees in the garden except from the ‘tree of the knowledge of good and evil.’

Let’s speed up time a little to Genesis 3: 8 & 23, 25. God had by this time taken the female he created out of Adam and called her ‘woman’. They were both naked and didn’t have any shame in their nakedness since that was all they knew, that was normal.

Genesis 3: 1 – 7 tells us of the lying, deception of the serpent, a creature more subtil (delicately constructed: fine: thin or rare: piercing or penetrating: shrewd: discerning: cunning ) than any beast of the field that God had created. This creature was obviously pretty good-looking and very intelligent. This serpent was approachable, certainly not wild and rampant and he could think and talk with reasoning. He could be influenced to make decisions.
Keep in mind that an atmosphere of total holiness and pure harmony prevailed among all of God’s creation. It must have been because our ‘Holy God’ used to come, in the cool of the day, to fellowship with Adam. Adam and his woman had probably chatted with the serpents and probably become quiet acquainted over time. Considering that they were the highest species below mankind and that they had been there for a good while already, they must have had families. This serpent, the missing link that science has been searching for, for so long, also displayed the intelligence to act on thought’s of evil inspired by Satan.
There was no other evil around.
Satan wanted to impregnate God’s chosen children with unbelief… Sin. God already knew, from before the foundations of the world, what Satan would do but God planned to make every thing work for the good for those who love the Lord. Satan’s action would just give God a way to demonstrate His attributes of a redeemer, saviour, husbandman and deliverer and to create, for Himself, a corporal body and a opportunity for God to call out of the sin, a many member bride from throughout the ages. From the beginning of time to the battle of Gog and Magog when time as we know it ceases. Thereafter, only eternity! No beginning and no end. Just being!

This serpent had it’s own mate. God had made all creatures with mates to multiply. The serpent had no reason to interfere with Adam’s mate but he seduced her into believing the lies and misinterpretation of God’s Word for their hour, which was “The day that you eat of the ‘tree of the knowledge of good and evil, that day you shall die’. Look how he tempted Eve (a type of the church) by misplacing and misinterpreting the Word of God and promises of ‘all knowledge and power as though she will be as a God’. That is exactly what was the cause of Satan’s fall from grace. He wanted to be a God. It’s the same way he tried to tempt Jesus in the desert. Satan thought that he was onto a good thing. He thought that he would seduce God’s

Children for revenge. Satan didn’t like Adam or woman and would devour them if God would allow him the privilege. God has a master plan. God knows Satan’s every move before he makes it so God always has a counter move that works for Him. Remember, God could send Satan and all the demons to a fiery end anytime he wanted to. God still has a use for him.

This is where everyone can learn what sin is. Sin is “disbelief of God’s message for any particular hour in time”.

Jesus later condemns the scribes and Pharisees in Matt 23. because of their unbelief of God’s word which He sent to them with His servants, the prophets.
In Rom.11:20 The branch of the tree of life is broken off because of ‘unbelief’.

So here’s this smooth talker chatting woman up. He even told woman that she wouldn’t really die, but that her eyes would be opened and she will be like a God, knowing right from wrong, good from evil.

What happened then revealed to them that they were naked and ashamed before God so they sewed fig leaves together to hide their nakedness. What’s more is that Eve’s was cursed. Sorrow will be greatly multiplied and in conception: in sorrow shalt she bring forth children; and her desire shall be to her husband, and he will rule over her. Woman was going to have a baby.
In fact, she was going to have twins. Adam knew that woman was going to die according to God’s command so, because of his love for her and his desire to save her, he partook of the fruit with the woman as had the serpent. Woman was then given the name Eve………….Mother of all living.
All this, from eating a forbidden fruit! I don’t think so.
Be careful. There are many forces that would have you believe that lie.

The serpent too was cursed. From that day forth he was to slither on the ground on his belly and to eat the dust of the field……… all the day’s of his life. He must have done something really bad. It had to have been something much worse than ‘beguiling’, ‘conning’ woman into eating a fruit she was told not to. What would today’s woman do under those circumstances? I ask you! Is woman that stupid?

God then sacrificed the first animals to hide their shame, a consequence of their unbelief of God’s Word. Then God took the skins and made clothes for Adam and Eve. Their state of immortality was gone. Their innocence was a thing of the past. They were now, mere mortals, dripping in innocent blood and destined to die.
From that moment forward, they and all their offspring would need to annually sacrifice a innocent, perfect and blameless animal to atone for their sin.

Adam and Eve were banished from the Garden of Eden.

But that is not all. Genesis Chapter 4. Says, And Adam knew Eve, (as in carnal knowledge) his wife; and she conceived and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man from the Lord.

And she again bare his brother Able.

‘OK’ Were we discussing the eating of a fruit or were we talking about sex, adultery, ‘knowing a woman’, conceiving, having babies, realizing that you are naked. Let’s face it, surely God wouldn’t sentence His children to death for just eating a particular fruit.

There is still the issue of character differences of the two children….

Firstly, all life comes from God, so of course, Eve got a man from the Lord. She got two, one from the serpent and one from Adam. Proof that the serpent was the missing link. His seed could cause conception with the egg of another species. His D & A must have been so close to that of Eve’s, whose was the same as Adams.

Cain was first conceived and first born and he was a tiller of the field while Able, Adam’s son, was a keeper of the sheep. Cain had no revelation of what was required for a suitable sacrifice so he gave God fruit.

Able shed innocent blood.

Cain was jealous, hateful, vengeful………He had a murderously evil natured. His seed has had a desire of wrathful vengeance against God and His seed ever since then. The gospel of John, Chapter 15 describes how ‘Jesus’ is the ‘tree of life’ and how we must expect to be hated as he was, simply because we are not of this world but He has chosen us, because of our faith in His Word. See especially verse 19.

What is more, if Cain was seed of Adam, thus making him a child of God, a seed of God, you would certainly, expect to see his name in the linage of Jesus tracing back to Adam, considering that he was the first of the two children born, Wouldn’t you?
Well, That doesn’t happen. Go look in Luke 3; 23 – 38. The linage reflects Seth, Abel’s brother, not Cain. Cain’s seed is not mentioned. Able was murdered by Cain, his half brother, prior to having children.

So, in summary, there is every evidence that it was not a proverbial garden type fruit that Adam and his mate ate in the Garden of Eden with the serpent but it was blatant adultery, the perversion of the church, the result of years of persistent seduction on the weaker of God’s two children.
Note. It wasn’t until after the fall of man and woman that man was to rule over woman. That came with the curse. No doubt God saw a whole lot of problems coming. He knew that Satan would target woman to destroy man throughout the ages. Woman, let your desire be unto your husband.

If anything, this will surely help explain why there are godly people and evil people.

What is sin?

As in the previous question, death was the consequence for sin. Separation from God lay ahead. Where Adam would previously spend time with God but that would no longer happen. God was so disappointed with mankind. In Genesis 6; 1-6 it is explained that when men began to multiply, and daughters were born to them, God saw that son’s of God took to them wives as they pleased. Man exasperated God to the point that he set for him a life span of one hundred and twenty years knowing that His Holy Spirit would not always strive with man because evil was on his mind continually. His disappointment was so severe, He wanted to destroy everything that He created. Even the insects were to go.
Thank Noah when you see him, He found favour with God for our sakes. All God asked of Adam and his female mate was to honor Him by believing His Word for their time and show fruit of that faith by obeying Him, the evidence of which will be in their works. In other word’s, their behavior will reflect their belief in God’s word.

Look at it this way, God’s word say’s that we should love our neighbor as yourself. It simply means that. Believe it like that, letting your actions demonstrate your belief and everything regarding you and that particular Word from God is righteous. Should you covet his property that is the iniquitous act that is the evidence, that you don’t really believe that you are expected to believe ‘that you must love your neighbor as yourself’.
Because of the iniquity, (doing the deed knowing that it is taboo) you will need to ask God for forgiveness of your wickedness, praying for strength and wisdom to resist the devil in the future and he will flee and you will pay a price for it but for the disbelieving that God means what He say’s when He say’s it, ( you will have to repent of your sin ).

In Genesis 2; 16 and 17 God had given total control of the Earth. Adam even named everything. God really loved all of His creation. At this time, God issues Adams his one and only command. He say’s, “Adam, you can eat from every tree in the garden except that one over there, the tree of the knowledge of good and evil”. “The day that you eat from it, that day, you will die”.

The serpent later convinced woman, who was in Adam at the time that God gave them the commandment, that they surely will not die but they will be like God’s. All Satan wanted to do was sow a seed of discrepancy and doubt in God’s word. Woman fell for it and she was condemned. It wasn’t so much the deed that was sin, it was the fact that woman doubted God’s word which led to the disbelief of the command and the evidence was the fact that the did commit adultery.

Woman believed the serpent’s words over God’s. Someone was lying. Eve made the wrong decision. Death, deceit, fear, insolence, distrust and blaming made there ugly entrance into the world the moment woman slept with the serpent. She also conceived the first fruits of perdition.

Contrary to woman, Adam still believed that he would die if he also had sex with woman (ate from the fruit baring tree) but he loved her so much he interceded on her behalf. If she was going to die he was going to die trying to save her. Their Spiritual lights went out. They were on their own. That was the price they paid for their unbelief, the curses placed upon them was the price they pay for the iniquity……….. doing the deed that they knew not to. The whole question in the scripture is do you believe. If so , act upon it as an expression of your faith in your belief. Don’t be a hypocrite, be a believer who abides in the Word…….. for the glory of the Word.

In Matthew 23; Jesus indicts the scribes and Pharisees for being hypocrites because they go through the motions of being Godly but, because they continue killing God’s prophets, Jesus call’s them serpents and a generation of vipers who need a way to escape hell . See verse 33. They would not believe the word for their hour.

Jesus say’s that man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. Matt. Chapter 4 ; 4 & Luke 4 ; 4.
What Jesus is saying is bread will sustain you physically but to survive spiritually, you have to believe all the unadulterated Word of God. Don’t leave some out. Don’t have faith in someone’s personal interpretation of it. It has to be Holy Ghost revealed. Don’t be beguiled into believing there is more or less. God’s word is perfectly correct in the Authorized King James Version. Leave the other publications alone. They don’t and will never make perfect sense as does the KJV. The others were not inspired of God.
If Jesus say’s , “You are the temple” believe it just like that. You are the temple. 1 Corinthians 3; 16
Even if you don’t understand it , believe it.
If Jesus say’s that God is a spirit. God is a Spirit. Simple! St. John 4; 24
If Jesus say’s that He will send the comforter to you, he will. St. John 14; 16 & 17
Don’t question it. It will happen in His own time. If He say’s that the comforter will lead and guide you to all truth, so pray for Jesus to send the comforter to you and see what happens.
If God has set before you a set of rules to live by and He has placed a penalty on transgressors, be sure to believe that you will pay as you go should you choose to transgress, He is a just God.
You will receive the same treatment as everyone else. Acts 10; 34&35 and Ephesians 6; 9
On the other hand, if you receive a prophet in the name of a prophet, you will receive the reward of a prophet. Matt. 10 ; 41.

Jesus keeps his promises. He is unchanging in His ways.
He is the same…… yesterday, and today, and forever. Hebrews 13; 8
You can count on Him.
To disbelieve the above and to go about disregarding it will inevitably lead to the manifestation of iniquity since it is the evidence of unbelief. You’ll do it because you don’t believe.
God has a fierce enemy who will pervert every word of God’s if he can and you have to have faith in the Word.
Why does Satan do this, because he is intent on deceiving the very elect if possible. Matt. 24; 24.
How does he do that, he beguile you with false prophets and teachers misinterpreting, adding on and taking from the holy word of God. They are wolves in Sheep’s clothing.

The Pharisees and scribes weren’t smoking and drinking as some preachers do today. They didn’t mess around with the things of the world, yet, Jesus condemned them. Why, because they had the Word of the hour standing in front of them, fulfilling the scriptures they knew while announcing it in words and in works, till he even discerned there evil thoughts.
They rejected the word of their hour. Don’t make the same mistake.

Why would Peter in Acts 2; 38 answer the crowd of Jews, when they asked “what must we do to be saved” after Peter had preached to them Jesus being the promised Messiah, “repent every one of you and be baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, for the remission of you sins and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost for the promise is unto you and to your children and to those that are afar off. ( the Gentiles)

Peter says repent.
Repent means to ‘ feel regret for deed or omission, contrition. What did the Jews do or omit that should make them feel contrite and forsake salvation. They had crucified their promised Messiah, they had omitted recognizing the word in their presence and they had to change their ritual of sacrificing to be replaced by baptism. They had been beguiled by the ‘denominations of the day, caught up in dogmas and creeds of man. Misinterpreted the scriptures so bad that the King of Kings they had waited for four hundred years came and went, fulfilling the prophecies in the word. They no longer heard sound teachings. They sinned and the act of not repenting was the iniquity of it all. They will burn in hell for not repenting and the people of Israel will be scattered into all over the world and they will loose their nationality and land. As a gentile I thank God that His children were so sinful because without it, we gentiles wouldn’t have had a chance at salvation, not to mention being God’s Bride.

John’s testimony of Jesus’ encounter with the scribes and Pharisees in Chapter 8 explains the
sin = unbelief teaching extremely well while it embraces and confirms the serpent seed teaching also. There’s Jesus telling the priests of that day that they were of their father the devil, a murderer from the beginning and never abode in the truth because there was no truth in him. He is a liar and the father of lies.
Who was the first person to lie in the Garden of Eden? It was the serpent. He lied to woman beguiling her into adultery and then further on, His son Cain, lied to God when he said he didn’t know where his brother Able was when Cain had just murdered him. Hey! What has changed. We still have the unbeliever persecuting Jews and Christian’s alike. If you are not feeling the persecution, check your church, it might be that the devil has already got you!

So, are you a sinner or are you righteous, an unbeliever or a believer?

So, there you have it. Sin if disbelief of the Word of God for the hour as is revealed to you.
Believe, all things are possible.
This is where the Mark of the Beast comes in. The mark relates to the teachings you believe. Are they of God or are they misinterpretations and lies we would expect from the devil.

Strait forward and simple isn’t it?

Ok! let’s move on.

Understanding the Godhead and the Creation?

It will certainly help you to try to close your mind of all that you have ever heard and thought on this subject for it is certain that we all have our perception of God and the Creation, as we know it. This is how it happened as recorded by the Holy Ghost inspired scribe, Moses, and confirmed by Matthew, Paul and Jesus Himself………. Who better to give us the truth? Jesus was there when it all began. I hope that you have opened your reading in prayer, asking the Holy Spirit to reveal the truth to you for the glory of God through His Son, Jesus. Amen!

In Genesis Chapter 1; 2 Moses, the author of the first five books of the Bible writes that the earth was spoken, into existence, by the power of the Spoken Word of God. It was at first without form and it was void (empty). And darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the spirit of God moved over the face of the waters. There you have it! God’s is said to be a spirit.

Look in the gospel of St. John Chapter 4: 22, 23 & 24 Jesus has just demonstrated the gift of a prophet, the discerning of the secrets of the heart, when a gentile woman recognized the gift and that He was a Prophet. He had noted that they didn’t even know who and what God is. Jesus explains that God is a Spirit. So it is acceptable that man was first created as a spirit also. Created in the likeness of God, His image. God created man as a ‘spirit’ man.

He was, in other words, the first man in the lower creations of God. The first creation was God Himself; Then out of God came the Logos, which was the Son of God; then out of the Logos, which was the Word (“In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us.”) ‘out’ of the Logos came forth man. This is what makes the believers of the Word identify themselves with the Word. That is what makes us eternal, because we were in Him in the beginning. We have a kinship with the Creator. We recognize the true Word of God and have a yearning to be reconciled with the Word, as soon as possible. We live only to please and glorify God through His Son Jesus.

It was on the sixth day, Genesis Chapter 1; 26 and 27 that God created Adam, male and female, created He them in His own image and God blessed them and told them to multiply and replenish the earth. He gave them dominion over everything that God had created.

On the seventh day God rested.

The second part of the creation of man was still to take place when in Genesis Chapter 2; 7, the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, breathed the breath of life into the body and man became a living soul. He now had a corporal body. The body was immortal and as long as they ate from the ‘tree of life’ which God caused to come up in the garden. ( There’s your answer to the question, “what was first, the chicken or the egg?” As with all the creation, God made the male creation complete with seeds and female with egg’s and reproduction organs for each, to ensure procreation.)

Let us go back a hundred million years when there was nothing, no planets, just emptiness, not even darkness. Now, there was a time when there was just nothing here, it was just all forever and Eternity
And all of ever and Eternity was God, He was there in the beginning.

Ok, imagine you were looking over a banister and see these things happen. Now, “no man has seen the Father at any time.” No man can see God in the bodily form, because God is not in body form, God is a Spirit. See, all right. “No man has seen the father, but the only begotten of the Father hath declared Him.” John 1;18

You are looking but you can see nothing, just space. No light and no dark ……… nothing.
Not even air. But in there is a great supernatural Being. Jehovah God, Who covered all space of all places at all times. He was from everlasting to everlasting, He is the beginning of creation. That’s God. You can’t see nothing, can’t hear nothing, not a move of an atom, not nothing, not no air, no nothing, but yet, God was there. It was God. That is the Father. ( Now, lets watch for a while……… ) No man has seen that, now,

Now notice. That after awhile we begin to see a little sacred light begin to form, like a little halo or something, you could only see it by spiritual eyes.

And now, the next thing we begin to see, by supernatural eyes looking, we see a little white light forming out there. What is that? That was called, by Bible readers, “Logos,” or “anointed” or “anointing” or the part of God begin to develop into something so human beings could have some type of an idea what it was. It was a little light, moving. He… That was the Word of God.
John, in chapter 8; 12 records Jesus as saying that He is the Light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

God gave Himself birth to this Son, which was there before there was an atom or air to make an atom.
See? Jesus said in John 17; 5 “Glorify Me, Father, with the glory We had before the foundations of the world.” See, way back yonder.

Now, in St. John 1; 1 In the beginning was the Word and the Word was with God and the Word was God. Verse 2 .The same was in the beginning with God. Verse 3. All things were made by him; and without him was not anything made that was made. Verse 4. In him was life; and the life was the light of men.
Verse 14. And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth. God, unfolding Himself, down to a human being. Now watch how He did it.

Now, back there, then, when this little halo comes, we can see nothing yet, but just by eyes of supernatural, we see a little halo standing there. Now that’s the Son of God, the Logos. We can see Him playing around like a little child, before the Fathers door, with all Eternity. See?
And now, then in his imaginary make-up He begins to think of what things would be, and then we can hear Him say, “Let there be light”. See, it was the power of His Spoken Word.

And when He did, an atom burst and the sun came into existence. She whirled for hundreds of millions of years, forming clinkers, and burning, and forming like it is today; still burning, still breaking atoms.

We watch as one, then other clinkers break off that weigh as much as the Earth and the other planets and we see as the Logos watches and lets them fall for hundred million years and then, He stops them.

Now, He’s got something on His mind, and what’s He doing? He’s writing the first Bible….. in the stars. The Zodiac. Placing them as He wanted. It dovetails this Bible. It starts off with Virgo and ends with Leo, the Lion. That’s the first coming of Jesus, He came through a Virgin.; the second, He comes as the Lion of the tribe of Judah. See? He drew it all out, the cancer age and everything down through. Now, He put that all in the sky and placed it out. Now, that was the world coming into existence.

Back in the Genesis 1 the world was without form, and void.; and water was upon the face of the deep and the Spirit of God moved upon the water.

We keep watching as He separates the water, brought up hills and the land and so forth; dried it off. He made the vegetation and every thing and He made the moon. And set it’s boundaries, and made the birds and all the creatures and put them on the earth. Then He asks this question now. “ Let us” (Who? Father and Son) “make man in our image.”

Now if man was created like the little sacred Light yonder, or something like that, it could not been seen (which is a spiritual being). He manifested or unfolded himself a little more, to make a trinity of Himself by Father, Son and Holy Spirit. And here was God, unfolded Himself now, down into “let us make man,” which was His son, an offspring from Him, “man in our own image” he was a supernatural being. “ And let him have dominion over the cattle of the field, and so forth.
Now, the man led the cattle and everything, just like the Holy Spirit leads the real, true believer today.
The voice of man could speak and call the cattle this way and call the sheep over in this pasture, call the fish to this water. See, he had dominion, everything obeyed him, He was God as a man

Genesis 2; 5 It is stated that there was no man to till the ground. Man was still a spirit.
Only in verse 7 does God form man out of the elements of the earth and breath the breath of life into him, making him a living soul.

Then God took a rib from Adam and made woman. He made man with a burly spirit and a tender, delicate, little, feminine spirit for the woman though just look around, you wouldn’t think so.

God had known already that there was to be this whole creation. He knew that He was going to make some woman so in Genesis 1; 27 “He created man in his own image, in the image of God created He him; male and female created he them.

When God made man of the earth, He did not make him in God’s image. This body is not in the image of God; this body is made in the image of beasts. He made man’s body in the same way as the beasts. Mans spirit is in the image of God.

Look at our body; we have hands like a monkey and feet like a bear. Take a little cub bear, strip him down, pull the skin off of him and put him upside of a little baby girl and look at the difference. You sure have to look close. The whole diaphragm, the make up, is almost the same, the way it’s made and the form of it, and everything just exactly. It’s in the image of animal life because he was made something on the order of an animal, because that was his duty to lead the animal.

Now, notice man. God knew in the beginning that he was going to have man and woman, and He knew that the Saviour would be here and he would have to bring Jesus, and He’ll be crucified. And Jesus told the disciples, when he was here on earth, that He “knew them even before the foundations of the world,” before the world ever come into existence.
Paul, in Ephesians 1; 4 & 5, ‘According as He hath chosen us in him before the foundation of the world, that we should be holy and without blame before him in love. Having predestinated us unto the adoption of children by Jesus Christ to himself, according to the good pleasure of his will.’
He chose us, the true bible believer, before the foundation of the world. Now, there was some part of the true believer that was in Christ Jesus before the world began. We came out of the logos.

Now, get this. You are going to find the Godhead right between the oneness and the trinity. When God dropped, unfolded Himself, unfolded Himself down till He come down to this man. Now, man sinned not in the spirit but in the body… lust, passion. Then, when he sinned, he separated himself from his Maker. And then God, the Logos, the very Creator of him, came down and was made in the image of man. Man was made in the image of God, and then he was made in the image of the beast, and he fell. And God came down in the image of man, in the Man Christ Jesus, to suffer pain. God could not suffer pain in the Spirit. How could He suffer physical pain in the Spirit? He couldn’t do it.
So God unfolded Himself and was made in the image of man, to redeem the man that was lost?

And then God suffered in the flesh. 1 Timothy 3; 16, “without controversy” that’s argument, “ great is the mystery of Godliness. For God was manifested in the flesh, seen of angels, preached on, crucified, and believed, and received up to the right hand of the father.” Is that right? God Himself came down and lived in a human body and suffered temptation. “God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself.” See what love is? The Love of God!

Now as the cinders traveled through space, further and further from the newly created, fiery sun, they chilled as they got further away from the sun collecting moisture and elements from the atmosphere which resulted from the chain reaction of the creation of the sun. Millions of years pass by and these enormous cinders have turned into icebergs. In His time, He stops them and places them where He wants them. We look and we see as the little light moves on over to the earth and gets on over it and takes the earth and places it near the sun and the ice starts to melt. The water, as it melts exposes the high ground and forms land, rivers and seas. This is how the earth came into existence; just a big old piece of cinder flew off out yonder from the sun. Down beneath the crust now is nothing but a turning, burning volcano. We all have seen how sometimes the volcanos erupt. Scientists say the crust of the earth, where we live, is like the peel of an apple.

There is twenty-five thousand miles around the earth, it’s probably eight thousand miles thick. And just think, of in there, it’s a burning volcanic.
And two thirds of the earth is water. And just look at the crust that we live on, it’s full of dangerous gasses, gasoline, oil, everything.
Is that right?
Two thirds of the surface, where we live, is water. What is the formula of water? Two parts Hydrogen and one part Oxygen, explosives. You can put enough atoms in a golf ball to blow New York off the face of the earth. And man is sitting on a pot of hell, hit’s his chest with pride and defies God’s Word, and say’s “There’s no such place as hell”. You’re sitting on a big pot of it every day. And while you’re here you sitting right on it, and hell’s right beneath you.

Now, back in Genesis 1, we are looking at the earth, the Bible say’s “The world was without form and void: and water was upon the face of the deep.” Is that right? “And the spirit of God moved upon the water.” Now He separated the water, brought up the hills and the land and so forth; dried it off. Vegetation and everything, He made it. And He made the moon. And set the boundaries, of the sea, so it could not pass. He got all those things together and made the animal life and put them on the earth. And then He asks this question now,” Let us” (Who? Father and Son) “make man in Our Own image.”
Now, if man was made something like that sacred little light yonder, or something like that, It could not be seen. It is a spiritual being. Remember, we see it only through supernatural eyes. He manifested Himself or unfolded Himself a little more, to make a trinity of Himself by Father, Son, and Holy Spirit. And here was God, unfolded Himself now, down into “Let Us make man,” which was His son, an offspring from Him, ‘man in our Own image,” he was a supernatural being. “And let him have dominion over the cattle of the field, and so forth.”

Now man led the animals as the Holy Spirit leads a real true believer today. The voice of man could speak and the animals would obey. Then God made man’s body out of the earth and breathed into him, the breath of life. Until then, the body was as dead as dead can be. The life in this body is spirit, it’s of the Spirit God. The body will return to the earth.

Just as God created Himself into a triune God, as in the Father, the Son and the Holy Ghost, and as the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit are titles going to one person, so are we created in ‘Their’ image and in ‘their’ likeness. First man was created as a spirit as in ‘their’ image, God’s and Jesus’, the Logos. That spirit of man that was in God before the foundations of the world was later breathed into the dead earthy body that God formed and man became a living soul. The ‘nature’ of the spirit is the soul. We defile our spirit by the things we say and do. What we say and do is the active result of conscious decisions we make having free will and keeping in mind that we fell from the condition earlier described, the original condition God created us in. It takes spirit, soul and body to make you. With just one of them, you are not you. It takes the three to make you.

So, we wander around doing all and every wicked thing, pleasing the flesh and grieving our Creator, and the spirit within us, and tarnishing its soul. Having been borne in sin and come into this world telling lies and destined for hell, God offers us a escape route. If you ‘die’ for instance, your body will be here, but you, what you are inside you, that, that is no longer in your body, that’s your spirit! The soul is the nature of the spirit, that when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, it change’s, it converts your spirit to a different soul. And that soul is a different nature that’s on that spirit.

First you were mean, evil and full of hatred, malice and strife; now you’re loving, sweet, and… See the difference? The old soul died and the new soul which is the new nature borne into you. See? Your brain is not your intelligence; it’s your spirit that’s in you is your intelligence. See? Your brain is a bunch of matter and cells and so forth; it has no intelligence in itself. If it did, then as long as it laid there, whether you were dead or alive, it would still operate. See? But it’s not your brain; it is your spirit inside of you. And the soul is the nature of the spirit.

So, there we have the Godhead and the creation explained.
God, an invisible Spirit Who existed in the void. He was and is and always will be. All that is created, is in God, in the office of the Father… Everything!
He then created His Son, Jesus, the Logos, the anointed. The Christ
The Holy Spirit is a tiny flicker of the Spirit of God. It’s a small portion of the life of God, His Nature. He is the comforter who Jesus said He would send, to lead and guide us to all truth and to show us things to come. It is the pure and Holy Nature of God that you receive when you receive the ‘Baptism of the Holy Ghost’ that changes, converts your old sinful nature, (your tarnished Soul) sealing your soul in a Pure and Holy state unto eternity.
Without it, destruction, corruption and death follow, for this time zone will be destroyed and only eternity will remain.
So, clothe yourself with the true, tested Word Seed, as delivered by Br. Branham, God’s Prophet to the Laodicean church age, the seventh and final.
It is the Holy Spirit who anointed the prophets and the teachers and the preachers and the apostles and evangelists. He feeds the flock. It’s the Holy Spirit that clothes the Lord’s Bride with the unadulterated Word of God. It is the wonderful Holy Ghost that reveals the secrets and mysteries to His children. It is the Holy Ghost anointed, empowered if you will, Word Seed that is in you that will cause you to recognize Jesus, the Word, in the sky when He comes to fetch His bride. The Holy Ghost’s duty is to guide you to the revelation of the rapture by revealing the Word, Jesus to you.

The Holy Spirit the Porter referred to in St. Mark 13; 34.
St. Mark chapter 13 is a excellent chapter to get to grips with what is pending as far as the return of our Saviour is concerned.

Must I be baptized again?

The chances are very good that you must.

Satan has done a fantastic job of distorting the true teaching of the Baptism over the last two thousand years. This is one of the teachings that Satan really hates for you to get right so he has spent a tremendous amount of effort to pervert the truth in this regard. Why? Because, if you follow the instructions that lie within the truth, you are promised the gift of the Holy Spirit and He will expose Satan and his lies and perversion and reveal the truth to you.

Peter was given the keys to the kingdom. Whatsoever He binds on earth, God will bind in Heaven and whatsoever Peter looses on earth shall be loosed in Heaven. So, Peter calls the shots. If Peter changes the teaching of the baptism, on earth, God must change the teaching in Heaven. He must Honor His Word. But, Peter doesn’t change anything. He fulfills and manifests the Word according to the revelation of the Holy Spirit. I refer to Matthew 28; 19 and Acts 2; 38 See also Matthew 16; 18 & 19.

Let’s recap a little to gather some background.

We have established that God is a Spirit, a Holy Spirit. His first creation was His Son, Jesus, as a Spirit, as in the Logos, as in the anointed. God, through His Son Jesus, they created everything. They created ‘man’ male and female, as a Spirit. They created the world millions of years ago by the power of His Spoken Word. He planned to later send His Son, Jesus, to redeem mans fallen spirit through manifesting Himself in the physical body of His Son Jesus who taught and preached these things and the disciple’s bare testimony. We also now know that we were first created as spirit beings, (in His image) and then God made man’s corporal body, (in the image of the animals) and God breathed the breath of life into the body and man became a living soul. We’ve learned that the ‘nature’ of the spirit of man is man’s soul.

Then, when in time, man fell in the flesh…and, if God had sent another individual besides Himself down, He was unjust. The only way God could justly do it was to take the man’s place Himself. Think of it like this, what if God made your mother die for your sin or your brother die for his sister’s sin. That could not be just. If God pronounced death upon you and He wanted you to live, He would have to take your place to justify you.

And then God, Who is a Spirit, without form, had to take on form and He over shadowed a virgin and created a blood cell, without sex or anything to do it, and created a blood cell that developed into the Son of God. And God came down at His appointed hour and dwelt in His Son, Christ Jesus, making Him, God on earth. When Thomas said, ” Lord, show us the Father, and it sufficeth us.”

Jesus said, “I’ve been so long with you and you don’t know me?” He said, “Why sayest thou, ‘Show us the Father’?” Why, He said, “When you see Me, you see the Father. I and My Father are one. My Father dwelleth in Me.”

It is not like, ‘wife and husband are one’ because, when you are seen, your spouse is not necessarily seen!
No, it’s not like that. Jesus said that you couldn’t see Him without seeing the Father, That’s right!

There are those that would say that they could prove that Jesus was nothing but a man and that we Bible believers put too much bragging on Jesus. Nobody can brag enough for the Lord. Why, Isaiah bragged about Him, he tried to name Him, he said, “He’s Wonderful, Counselor, The Prince of Peace, Mighty God, everlasting Father.” All that!
“He’s Alpha, Omega, the Beginning and the Ending, the root and offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star, Father, Son and Holy Ghost.” “In Him, (Jesus) dwelt the fullness of the Godhead bodily,” said the Bible. The fullness of God was in Him.

They may say, when He went down to pray for Lazarus, to raise Lazarus up from the dead after he had been dead for four day’s and he already smelled and was rotting, Jesus was weeping. That proves that He was a man. Sure He was weeping. He was a God-man. He was a triune being just like you and me, we’re soul, body and spirit. He was Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, in the Deity of God; that’s Who He was. He was Deity Himself! At the cross, His own children were crying for His blood and yet, He wept for them. How would a man feel if His own children were crying for His blood? He’d either condemn them to hell forever, or give His life; He was God giving His life for His children! Deity dwelt in Him! That’s Who He was. He was a man when He was weeping, but when He straightened His little frail body up and said to a man whose been dead for four day’s, ‘Lazarus, come forth!’ God was talking to Lazarus’ soul. The soul knew the voice of it’s Master and creator, and the man who was dead for four day’s, stood up and lived again, perfectly healthy! That was not just a man! That was more than a man; it was Jesus with the fullness of the Godhead in Him.

He was a man when he came down off of the mountain that night, hungry, looking around over a tree for something to eat. But when He took five loaves and two pieces of fish and fed five thousand, that was more than a man! That was God in man! Who could take cooked fish and break it off and it was still cooked fish, took baked bread and broke it off, what kind of an atom did He let loose? Hallelujah!
He was God, the creator of atoms and things! That was more than a man!

He was a man when He lay exhausted, after a long day preaching and healing the sick, in that boat when ten thousand devils of the sea swore they would drown Him. Where do ten thousand devils conspire to drown an ordinary man? But they did Jesus. That little boat out there bumping around like a cork, and Him lying, so tired till the waves didn’t wake Him up. The devils were roaring, said, “We’ll get Him now while He’s asleep.” But when He awoke, woke up there, He was a man. He was so tired. But, when He put His foot on the bow of the boat, He said to the sea, “Be still!” and the winds and the waves obeyed Him. That was more than a man! That was God, the Creator Who made the heavens. It’s no wonder that the apostles said, “What manner of man is this that even the winds and waves obey Him?” That was more than a man. That was God.

He was a man when He was nailed to the cross as a sacrifice to take away sin. He was a man when the nails were driven into His hands. He was a man with thorns over His head. He was a man that mockery soldiers spit on Him. He was a man was bruised, striped, and wounded. He was a man when He cried, “My God, why hast thou forsaken Me?”
He was a man crying for help. But on Easter morning when the seal of death broke loose at the tomb, that was more than a man! He proved He was God,

That’s that great Person, the Lord Jesus. He was Jehovah, God inveiled in flesh. The Bible said, “Whatever you do in word and deed, do it all in His name.” The Bible said, “The whole family in heaven is named ‘Jesus,’ and the whole family on earth is named ‘Jesus’”

Let’s pray in His name, live in His Name, teach in His Name, die in His Name, be buried in His Name, go to heaven in His Name and be baptized in His Name, Jesus. That’s His Name. And the Bride’s name is “Mrs. Jesus” He’ll take His people out of the Gentiles for His Name’s sake. Resurrect in His Name.

Let me assure you, I believe as Br. Branham often explained, we are not of the oneness belief, No Sir. We are not a oneness, neither are we Trinitarian. We believe what the Bible say’s.

The Bible teaches us in the book of Acts chapter 4; 10-12 that ‘by the name of Jesus Christ of Nazareth, whom ye crucified, Whom God raised from the dead shall man be saved, Neither is there salvation in any other name under heaven given among men, whereby we must be saved.’
Nobody, in the Bible was ever baptized in the titles Father, Son and Holy Ghost though there are several occasions recorded in the book of Acts where people were baptized in the name Jesus.

Baptize means complete submersion. It symbolizes death, burial and resurrection into new life. It identifies you with Jesus’ in obedience to His word.
Let me assure there are those who would pervert the truth regarding the baptism. Why would you let someone convince you that sprinkling is acceptable to God. That is a lie of the Devil. It has to be only the truth, no private interpretation, no adding to it and no taking away from it and you shall live by all of it, not just the bit’s you like.

The Word of God is very clear regarding the Baptism so get it right. There is no promise of receiving the gift of the Holy Ghost, baptizing in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Ghost (Matthew 28; 19) as there is when you are baptized in the name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Acts 2; 38
The Bible makes it very clear in Acts 8; 26-40 that the act of Water Baptism, (complete submersion in water) in said water, is demonstrated by the fact that Phillip could surely have sprinkled the eunuch with water if it was correct and acceptable to the Lord, for of a certainty, because they were traveling through desert, they would have had a substantial water supply aboard their chariot. But no, as time and revelation took place, they came to a certain water and the eunuch said, “See, there is water; what doth hinder me to be baptized? And Phillip, full of the Holy Ghost, said, “If thou believeth with all thy heart, thou mayest.” And he answered and said, “I believe that Jesus is the Son of God.” And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down ‘both into the water’, both Phillip and the eunuch; and he baptized him and when they were ‘come out of the water’, the Spirit of the Lord caught away Phillip and the eunuch saw him no more: and he went on his way rejoicing. When God answers sincere prayer, expect miracles. Happy are they who do the will of the Lord.

Don’t take chances with the Word. God means what He say’s. Don’t let ‘false teachers’ lie to you.
Get it right and live the life of a Saint as best as you can. God knows your heart and is forgiving and loves you so expect to be chastised as any good father would chastise His children, if he loves them. Please God in your every word and deed. Live for Him. Repent, and be baptized in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ, for the remission of your sin, (unbelief) and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. It’s a promise. The Holy Ghost will lead and guide you to all truth and show you things to come such as the rapture. Don’t baptize the babies, they cannot repent! They don’t even know what sin is. They are innocent souls paid for by Jesus’ blood. Dedicate them to God in The Name of Jesus Christ. Pray and worship Him, develop your relationship with Jesus. That is what He wants. He wants you to be happy and in love with Him and to trust Him fully, with all your heart and soul. Amen!

Only you know if you must be baptized again. If you are not sure how you were baptized, do it again. Rather be safe than sorry. Most denominations have the baptism doctrine mixed up so check it out. It is vital to you not having the mark of the beast, which is simply the belief you have in false doctrines. Any teaching that is not of the Holy Ghost represents the ‘mark of the beast’. The serpent, that old ‘beast’, beguiled Eve with seductive lies. The mark of the beast! Dead simple, so that the wise and prudent will trip over it looking for some great fan dangled tattoo or something on the forehead. That is not going to happen. No-body is going to send thousands of people around the world placing marks or integrated circuits into people’s forehead.

God is hiding in simplicity, so don’t look for the great big boom, crash, bangs. That is where the wise look and I’m not too sure God wants all the smarty-pants’ causing problems in heaven. He has already had to deal with ‘one’ in Satan. He thought he was so great, that He wanted to be a God.

Why did Jesus ask, “When I return, will I find faith?”

This has to do with the rampant way in which Satan is devouring the souls of man while man lives it up in Satan’s world and surrounds himself with worldly treasures instead of heaping up spiritual treasures.

God saw that the Roman church was going to institute the inquisitions and the Crusades. He also saw that this satanic institution was going to try to destroy the Holy Scriptures and pervert the original writings and write their own, (the Douai version of the Old Testament and their Catechism) and thereby enforce their will on everyone which is to believe their lies or face death. They have since provided the ‘New American Bible” with several new ‘books’ added that have for many been rejected by Christians as uninspired of God.

Revelations 3; 14-22 is a message to the Angel to the seventh church age ………….

Now, keep in mind that these verses were written to Br, Branham, as the Angel, the prophet of God to the seventh church age.

The previous two church ages, coming out of the “Dark Ages,” had been led, first by Martin Luther who preached Justification by the blood of Jesus instead of salvation by the Roman Church and of the Pope, (who was persecuting the bible believers of the day, and, who were being mercilessly butchered in the name of the Popes of that day, who has inscribed on his pitiful throne, “VICARIVS FILLI DEI”. This Latin phrase means “IN THE STEAD OF GOD.” You’d think that the intelligent masses would exodus that institution if they didn’t believe what the inscription meant or if they had any real Godly Spirit in them. That should be a big wake-up call to the world, or at least to Roman Catholics. Many countries governments have seen through the smokescreens and strategic, conniving, lying way’s of the Roman Church and has through the centuries, been banned from practicing in several country… especially the Jesuits. In this, the age most Bible Believers were killed therefore in Rev. 3; 4 it is stated that there are but a few names that has not defiled their garments and will walk in eternity with the Lord.

John Wesley was the Angel of the church age that followed Luther’s and led the church into the age of sanctification in preparation of the promised outpouring of the Holy Spirit, the “refreshing”, the returning to the original doctrines of the Spoken Word of God. Acts 3: 19.
Luke makes t extremely clear in Chapter 17 26 – 37 that Jesus is not expecting a great multitude to overcome to the end to receive the reward but some will faint and become infidels, unbelievers and ungodly.
John Wesley’s message was to shake up the protestant church, which had already denominated and to warn them that the Holy Spirit wanted to return to His Church, the human body as it was in the beginning. It was to be the beginning of the restoration. God in the form of the Holy Ghost, was once again, going to live in His temple. The giver of the gifts will take His place in the body of the genuine believer. That brought about the Baptists, the Pentecostal’s, Apostolic Faith and others and hundreds of independent evangelic ministries popped up everywhere and these all continue today, all declaring that they have the truth. They do have some truth but ask for their revealed “all the truth,” they haven’t got it. There is a whole lot of their painting missing and that disillusions sometimes the godliest and most devout people deceiving into thinking that no church has all the revealed truth. Their church elders are lying and deserve what they get. They are feeding the laity the same old story about the same old teachings that they have heaped upon themselves. They treasure the words of their messenger, as do we, but their messengers did not have the full revelation, the restoration was still to come, it was still not God’s time to reveal it. They were the bride of their day but failed to continue in the revealed Word as God saw fit to reveal in His own time. What they received was just a small portion of revelation. When their messenger passed on, they did not continue to walk in the progressing light. They should never have denominated and wrote down their beliefs and stuck to just that. That is why Brother Branham’s “message,” when He got to the third pull, when he had attracted the attention of the world and began with the revelation of the Word, it was not readily received by the churches who once proclaimed that he was God’s prophet and sponsored his earlier ministry. Why? Because their “church” had become big business and that if, and I mean IF, they had to accept just half of the teachings that Br. Branham revealed, half their parishioners would leave the church. They compromised on the Word and let the bars down and now they wonder where the sheep have gone and how the goats got in. All these souls will not be going in the Rapture unless they hearken to God’s prophet’s message and that is a fact. This is simply because they chose not to believe the truth and continue relying on receiving revelation from the Holy Spirit (who will lead them to the truth). They are deceived. They believe fables. You try to explain the doctrine of serpent seed or the baptism in Jesus Christ’s name. Neither Luther nor Wesley had the revelation of either teaching. That doesn’t mean that the teaching is wrong. It just means that their messenger was not appointed to reveal it. That came after the churches denominated. God wouldn’t force change on their church doctrines so what does He do? He sends another messenger. This time He sends a prophet to warn them, Br. Branham was a man who would not compromise on the Word and always called a spade a spade. He was a man of God who, right before their eyes, performed the work of a prophet faultlessly, always showing forth the fruits of the Spirit of God. Discerning the very secrets of the heart as is the exclusive gift to God’s prophets. God was attracting the attention of the world through him so abundantly with signs, wonders and prophecy. But, most important to the true believer is the exposition and revelation of the Word. We believers have a vast emptiness within us until God reveals Himself to us in his Word. We have a Word Seed within us that calls to the deep. God knows our hearts and he will not forsake His seed. Everything that we would ever ask for in His Name is already paid for and given at Calvary. All we need to do is believe and receive it.

To go in the rapture requires something of extreme importance. The Baptism of the Holy Ghost! Why? That is because the Bride is Eternal and we are in an animal body and born in sin to start with and to become eternal in this current state will take the miracle of the Eternal Holy Spirit to sanctify this body and to take occupancy in the believers body converting the recipients soul (nature) to that of the Holy Ghost. That is when the believer becomes subject to the powers of God. The Spirit filled believer literally becomes God sons and daughters of God which represent the Bride of God who will rule throughout eternity together. We will not be worshiped on earth as we worship God but we will demonstrate the power of God before we leave this earth to meet the lord in the sky. The manifestation of this power, along with the resurrection of the saints who ‘sleep’ and the trump of God that we expect to hear is what will give us faith enough to change our bodies at the time appointed and only God knows.

In as much as you cannot do anything more than accept and believe that you are saved since it was all done at Calvary, so it is with the rapture and being an eternal being. The bible states that the Bride’s names were written in the Lamb’s Book of Life before the foundations of the world. See, Philippians 4; 3 and Rev. 3; 5 and 13; 8 and 17; 8 and 20; 12 and 15 and 21; 27 and 22; 19. How did they get their names written in the Lamb’s Book of Life? They simply upheld and honored the Word of God and overcame all adversity by using the power of the Spoken Word, for we “wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.” “Wherefore take unto yourselves the whole Armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand in the evil day, and having done all, to stand.”

If you are not fighting a war daily, Satan already has you in his grasp and is not concerned about you anymore. Why would Jesus warn us to seek our salvation in fear and trembling?
As Satan beguiled Eve with reasoning with the Word of God through the serpent, so he will do battle with any soul that he has not yet beguiled. He will not rest. He has your day pretty well planned, every day. He does not want you to even know that you have salvation all sowed up and paid for… if you accept it!

If you are not practicing the Word and studying your adversary and wearing the full armor of the word you are in serious trouble. The number one rule of survival is John 3; 16. For god so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

What would have happened if Noah had listened to the scientists when they all said that it was impossible for rain to fall from the sky. They had a good point. It had never ever rained. Noah just simply believed God over anything cause he knew that with God, His word is sacred. He will never go back on His word. The same thing exists today. Jesus has given us authority to cast out devils in His Name. Now you cannot figure out God so don’t try. Just believe it as it is. In it’s pure form. So, God is the word, and it’s just made to believe. And that is our strength, just accept the Word the way it is. Everyone knows that a seed in the right kind of ground will produce its kind.

In the last, the Laodicean church age, this age, God say’s that He knows the works of the ‘Christian church’ and that they are neither, hot or cold, but lukewarm.

Remember ENOCH where only one was saved… and just for interest sake, note that Enoch was a type of the Bride, of the last day believers who don’t see death but are transformed directly into their theophony bodies (the physical body like Adam had) to meet the Lord in the sky. Enoch never died, God raptured him.

It so offends God, that His church is lukewarm and wishy-washy, He say’s He will spew her out of his mouth. Because the church is saying that they are rich and increased with goods and have need of nothing and that She don’t know that she is wretched, and miserable, and poor, and blind, and unclothed: God council’s Her to buy gold, (revelation) tried in a fire, that She can get rich in revealed Word and clothed in pure, white, holy raiment so that Her bareness is covered and the shame thereof not appear; and anoint Her eyes with eyesalve, that She mayest see.

That was not directed to the organized churches but to the Bride of God that were in the organized churches who have let their guard down and relaxed amid the battle. God is warning the Bride to trim Her lamp so it will be burning for the Lord when He comes and assures her that He will not forsake her.
Here we are referring to ten virgins. Five of them were foolish and five were wise.

Things aren’t looking too good for mankind, especially those caught up in the denominations, the organizations and more so, those in the world who are drinking and being merry in this age, especially if things with the Bride are going so rough. There is a war going on. Why would God provide us with a Sword and armor? God warns that repentance is par for the course but as many as He loves, He rebukes and chastens. These are treacherous, tempting times. God say’s that He is standing at the door knocking and that if any man hear His voice, (His Word through His appointed prophet of the hour) He will come in and sup with him, and he with Him. ‘Only those who overcome, will He grant to sit with Him in His throne, even as He, Jesus overcame, and is sat with His Father in His throne.’
He ends His message to His Bride saying, “He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith to the churches.”

How much more, must the average ‘Christian,’ who doesn’t even know of the Prophet, need to apply himself? There’s no wonder why the Lord said, “seek thy salvation in fear and trembling.” Peter say’s in 1 Peter 5; 8 “Be sober, be vigilant; because your adversary the devil, as a roaring lion, walked about, seeking whom he may devour.
If I said that I wasn’t trying to scare you into action, I’d be lying. I am!
Remember, a true believer commits himself into the hands of the Lord believing unto the adoption, the manifestation of God’s redemption plan, The second coming of Jesus, always knowing that it is only by our faith in God’s grace and the power of His blood that saves our wretched souls for only thereby do we find ourselves worthy in God’s eye’s.

History has shown that at any given moment in time, only a few souls, comparatively speaking, elect to be saved. It has to do with man’s free will and how he has been caught up in the things of the world.
Why should the Gentiles be any different to the Israelites. Throughout time as we know it, they built their idols. Ask yourself, what is your idol? Do you give unto the Lord that which is His? For example, ten percent of your time and ten percent of your income, your tithes! What is your prime interest on a Sunday? Does your religion take the form of soccer or motor racing? Is your prime objective in life to make the Rapture by doing whatever it takes? No matter what you have to sacrifice! Remember the rich, young ruler. Notice, he recognized the Word for his hour and believed it, he was obedient and devout and yet, the lord told Him to sell all his goods and to give the proceeds to the poor and to follow him. Have you asked the Lord what it is that He requires of you? If not, there is no time like the present to do something about it. Do you even care?

Satan has made this world his happy hunting ground. Let’s look at some of the pitfall’s Satan uses to entice, seduce, entrap and devour souls to perdition:- Movies, and diversity of religious teachings, all insisting that they have the correct doctrines and that they are of God and that God leads them. Television, especially the religious programs. They seduce you into accepting that there is salvation through many totally unsubstantiated modes and theories. For example, they talk of Nirvana as a place or state to be sought by becoming such a goody-goody over several lifetimes and in the process makes the entire plan of God inconsequential. Nonsense!
Man lives once, then he dies and then comes judgment. Hebrews 9; 27 We Christians judge ourselves every waking minute. Should we even ‘think’ to lie, lust or steal for example, we will rebuke the evil spirit that placed the thought into our minds, in the Name of Jesus Christ and repent, thanking God for the trial and our weakness and ask God to strengthen our will to overcome. We Christians are wary not to entertain devils. Others do, mostly they don’t even know that they’ve been conned by the Devil because they are constantly, so caught up in the world they love so much, they don’t even know the Word. They don’t even know Satan, for that matter. Too many people don’t even value their souls enough to give Jesus a opportunity to reveal Himself to them. So many, are so wicked that they couldn’t get away from Satan’s grasp, if they tried. Multitudes have sold their souls to Satan in exchange for earthly riches and/or power. Most people today think, as did I, that if they are ‘good’ and believe as, and what, people believed, back in Luther’s or Wesley’s day, they will go in the rapture because of the blood and the promises. Not in this day and age. Not since God sent His Messenger, Br. Branham. There is therefore now no excuse, especially since there are several Internet websites, dedicated to his Ministry for the people of the modern world to utilise for to scrutinize. His ministry has been so well documented but at the same time, Satan has also been calling the shots. Look what Satan did in the generation that Br. Branham was preaching God’s Word…….. Two World Wars, the Korean and Vietnam wars, the American Civil war, the Napoleonic wars, the Idi Amin atrocities, the Mussolini Fascisms, the Hitler Nazism, the Belgium Congo slaughters, etc, etc. …..
By the fifties, Satan had teenage girls and woman alike, running around in colored underwear and called swimsuits and ‘bikini’s or worse, they were stripped bare, and were still believing that, it was an apple that made Adam and Eve realise that they were naked and ashamed before God,’ or didn’t they care? Satan had man beguiled into accept woman as equal in standing before God. Satan had made woman preachers. He made Hollywood, football, baseball, netball, cheerleaders and rock and roll and the Elvis’ and Ricky’s, designer drugs and children running wild because their parents are too busy smoking and drinking and jiving and conniving and couldn’t care about demoralizing mankind. What about the lies and conspiracies, and the murders of millions of Jewish, Russian, Polish, Chinese, Japanese, German, French, English, American and Congolese souls and others all around the world, just to mention a few. Did you know that Goering, while secretary of State of the German Third Reich, was the secret Chamberlain to the Pope of the time? You didn’t hear of any complaints or attempts to stop the killings from the Roman Church, did you? Lets face it, if a church can coax support of the Roman Catholic people of Germany by the magnitude they did, to condition the German populace to accept Hitler and his crony puppets and the atrocities they committed, that same Roman Church could have prevented the killings or at least, instigated or instituted investigations into war crimes within that evil Nazi Organisation and promote the execution of justice. But No! nothing! No repentance! What we do have is denial that the atrocities ever happened and an unknown number of homosexual priests infecting our children with sodomy and perversion while they are allowed to carry on regardless. Why do we let them get away with the evil crimes all the time? They have become ‘THE UNTOUCHABLES’. All this evidence is screaming out loud to be addressed, while the nominal Roman Catholic populace, world wide, don’t care at all and still go religiously to worship their three God’s, (through their beloved Pope who declares, by inscription on his throne, that he is ‘In the stead of the Son of God,’) in that institution, still denying truth in exchange for fables and perversions of our God’s Holy Word.
Satan has done a masterful job. There’s no wonder why he thought he could be a God. He is so shrewd he could steal your soul without you even knowing about it.
This is Satan’s kingdom. Respect that fact. You are in his battlefield. The war is fought on his terms. He has been around here for many centuries and he never sleeps. There is no escape from his onslaught except to seal your soul by the Baptism of the Holy Ghost.

Call to mind the evil’s that were perpetrated in my country, South Africa. Look at the ungodly behavior of man in the Middle East and especially in Israel. Satan, working his evil plan of destroying Godliness by exterminating the Jew’s and true Christians through the Roman Catholic Church’s secret army of Jesuits by instruction by the Illuminati on and by inspiration of Satan.
All Satan needs to do is distract you from the things that God is doing in the world today. He will also certainly pervert your understandings of what God expects from you. If he already has, you have serious and urgent problems. You need to consecrate yourself to God through Jesus Christ as a matter of urgency.

As it was in the days of Noah, there was only eight souls saved and in Lot’s time there was only three souls saved. Sodom and Gomorrah has nothing on ‘San Francisco’ and the ‘City of Angles’.
I’m currently receiving Spam (Unsolicited advertising) emails encouraging me to become a priest in 48 hours. Fully licensed to perform marriages, funerals, baptism’s, etc, etc, I was under the impression that God called priests to the ministry. Satan has made a mockery of religion and turned it into a booming industry where big bucks call the tune.

The Bible says that the rapture is a secret catching away of the Bride. She will be a Holy Ghost Bride. The rapture will commence with a shout. The rapture is progressing to the fullness of adoption. The shout was Br. Branham’s message to the Bride. Jesus taught that there were ten virgins. Five fell asleep while the others were taken.

It is not who wins the race but he that overcomes and endures to the end will be saved. Matthew 10; 22 and Mark 13; 13-20 and 13; 31-37. Note especially verse twenty of Chapter 13. Jesus says that if He didn’t shorten the days, no flesh would be left to save.

Look around you, how many people do you know who seek the truth, the whole truth, and nothing but the truth. Who do you know who is adamant that all the Word must be preached and revealed explicitly by the Holy Ghost inspired preaching of God’s messenger? How many people do you know who has even heard of God’s prophet? That should give you an explanation as to why Jesus asked, “When I return, will I find faith?”

If, under the same circumstances as God, I had a eternal Kingdom, and was about to populate it, I would surely put the candidates through a thorough and rigorous test. Having seen the chaos that took place on earth, I would demand that only the candidates who, believe my Word to be sovereign, to be the Alpha and the Omega, and endures all hardships to the end and have my nature and think like me and are in my image and do nothing except that I tell them to, will I allow into my Kingdom. That would amount to ‘fair preventative measures’ to avoid the infiltration of evil into my Kingdom.

That’s the story. To answer the question. The bride is made up of those souls from all ages of the New Testament era, who elected themselves by choosing to believe God’s Word. It is them whose names, God wrote in the lamb’s book of life. I’m talking about, Peter, Paul, Matthew, Mark, Luke and John, Stephen, Thomas, Mary Magdalene and yes, Mary, God’s chosen vessel who is in Heaven waiting for the resurrection like everyone else and not, contrary to popular belief, answering Roman Catholic prayers. We will have Joseph her husband and Lazarus. Even the thief from on the other cross who recognized that Jesus was the promised Messiah will be there. We, the Bride, will see Martin Luther, John Wesley, Finny, Knox, Calvin, Martin, Irenius and Colombo and William Branham rise from the dead as their spirits put on their original flesh body. When the Lord Jesus arrives with the souls of the New Testament saints, (who are in heaven now) they will pick up their bodies and will be changed into theophony bodies and, those who still are alive, our bodies will be changed back to what our body was like when God called forth Adam… a theophony body. All the messengers and believers of the ‘message of their hour,’ since the crucifixion, who endured in the Faith to their respective ends will be there. They obviously had died before the rapture takes place but the scripture says that the dead in Christ will first rise and then we which are alive and remain shall be caught up together with them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord. 1 Thessalonians 4;13-18 and 5; 1-4
There will therefore be quiet a large number of souls raptured though not too many from this evil generation. The world won’t even notice the souls missing as there will be such chaos at that time because the Bride leaving ushers in the three and a half year’s tribulation period.

How ‘cold’ and noncompliant are the organized churches then, if the Bride is lukewarm? How serious is their dilemma? What do you suspect Jesus would think of the denominational churches that are clinging only and so desperately to there outdated teachings while consciously or unconsciously rejecting the light, which was shone so undeniably bright through Br. Branham’s ministry? Is there any excuse, considering all the information available in this day and age, to continue blissfully and blindly following the blind. Are we expected to believe that all the leaders of every single religious organisation or institution, presuming to lead souls to Christ, cannot fathom the folly of their wicked ways.

I’ll give an example; they all say that they are Bible Believing teachers of the Christian faith. Well, I’m going to let the Bible dispute them all. In doing so, I’m going to provide you with essential ammunition with which to protect yourself from Satan and his demons.

Bible Believer. Definition; Someone who believes the writings contained therein.
Christian. Definition; A believer of Christ and His teachings.

Ok, I’m saying that the whore and her harlots are exactly that. They once swore loyalty to a husbandman and then forsook Him, the Word, for the world and the lies of Satan. Satan has infiltrated the denominations with enticing spirits, corrupting the Word as he did to eve, the first church, in the beginning.

The Word, Jesus, in confrontation with Satan himself, states real clear, that “man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. See Matthew 4; 4.
Now, that would mean every word of the Holy Bible. Is that correct? Right!
Now, we also know that the scripture is of no personal interpretation. 2 Peter 1; 20 and 21.
And, we all know that the last verses of the New Testament have severe warnings to anyone who dares to add to this word or to take away from it. Revelation 22; 18 and 19
We also know that Ephesians 4; 5 tells us that there is one Lord, one Faith and one Baptism.
Contrary to popular perception, all scripture is given by inspiration of God Timothy 3; 16
If there is any doubt, let God be true and man be a liar. Romans 3; 4
Paul places a curse upon all those, even Angels and himself, who dare to preach any other Gospel than what he preached. Galatians Chapter 1 especially verses 8 and 9.

Now, to prove my point based on our dedication and undying faith in God’s Word.

Having listed the above scriptures and assuming that you have checked them out and verified that the scriptures are straight forward, and that they do not demand a theology degree nor Divine revelation to understand, and to put it bluntly, any child who can read, will, without a doubt, understand exactly what the scriptures mean, I would like to pose to all the elders of their churches, institutions and so called bible schools, a teaching that Jesus, plain and simple taught us, with a warning of devastating results, if we don’t honor it.
Now, without condemning yourself any further, explain to your church, why you do not practice foot washing in your church as a essential practice and doctrine. Exodus 30; 21 and John 13; 2 - 17 especially verses 8, 14, 15, 16 and 17

Consider that a jab. Care for a right hook? Good!

Explain why, after Paul went to such length in Corinthians chapter 11, where he say’s, “be followers of him as he is a follower of Christ,” to set straight, a backslidden church of his day, the Corinthians, regarding woman cutting their hair. He explains that it is a sham for a woman to have short hair, and that she should rather shave it all off as did the woman found to be prostitutes, adulterers and harlots. She dishonors her husband and Jesus.
Please explain to your church, why you do not teach and follow Paul in this teaching? Are you taking from God’s Word when the scripture insists that you preach all the word and add not nor take away from it.
Sir, you are an infidel and are cursed and you deserve what is coming to you. What you do to the least of Jesus’ little ones, that you do to Him.

Do you want a upper cut? With pleasure!
Woman priests! Where in the world did you get ‘that‘?
Certainly not in the Bible that my God wrote by His Holy Spirit. 1 Corinthians 14; 34

We could go on and on and on. The sprinkling for baptism and the baptism in the titles of the Lord instead of in His Name, the baptism of infants who can’t even understand what repentance is, and misleading souls by having them thinking that all is hunky-dory when they could miss the rapture.
Communion in the morning when it is a supper. What is your hurry? Where do you have to go that is so important that you would change God’s Word to suit yourselves? You have no right to be ministering the Word. You are a cunning deceiver inspired by Satan. The wheel turns. Your day shall come. You have already been judged! Repent or await the manifestation of your punishment in fear.

What, mister preacher man, have you done in this day that is any different to what the Scribes, Sadducees and Pharisees, the denominations of that day did? See in Matthew chapter 23, 24 and 25 what Jesus has in store for you. See if you can see yourself in these those scriptures. Are you preparing your flock for the rapture. If not, you shouldn’t be preaching. You were not called to the ministry of Jesus Christ. You are anointed with a spirit other than God’s.
Luke Chapter 11; 9-13 tell you that IF you ask you will receive. If you want to preach, preach the truth. If you don’t have the truth…….. ASK!!!
Don’t preach lies and doctrines of men with intent to deceive, or the Lord will send you a strong delusion. 2 Thessalonians chapter 2, especially verses11 and 12.

How important are doctrinal issues?

Definition: Doctrine. A thing taught: a principle of belief: what the scriptures teaches
on any subject.

Where the question of sin (unbelief) comes into the picture, we must ask. Unbelief of what? Unbelief of the Word of God, as He reveals it, by the Holy Ghost to His servants the prophets, in due season.

Doctrines are what separate the denominations one from the other. It was man-made doctrines and interpretations of doctrines that separated the Sadducees from the Pharisees in the days of Jesus. It is the same in this day.

The first prophet to the original Apostolic church, Paul, found that incorrect doctrines had crept into the early church leading him to write his letters to the various churches and traveled extensively to preach the doctrines upon which the church was built. The latest apostolic church separated itself from others in this century by virtue of their doctrine of believing in the baptism of the Holy Ghost. They further isolated themselves by adding a personal interpretation to that doctrine in claiming that the evidence of the receiving of the baptism of the Holy Ghost is speaking in tongues. That forced many out of their midst only to form another denomination around another doctrine and so it goes on.

Centuries ago, when Martin Luther rejected the Roman Catholic doctrine of the infallibility of the Pope, he looked further and found 95 doctrinal errors in the pagan system and posted them on his church door and thus was excommunicated from that institution.

John Wesley believed all those doctrines until the Lord revealed another doctrine to him, Sanctification. The cleaning up of one’s life so that the Holy Ghost can come and dwell in your body. Far be it for the Catholics to teach that. All their ‘priests’ would fall short and so would their followers.

Today we are expected to live according to the doctrines in the Bible as revealed by Gods servant, His prophet to the Laodicean church age, William Branham.

He taught only the teachings that Paul taught, that which Jesus, through the Holy Ghost taught and that was based on Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever.

These are some of the doctrines of the Christian faith. This is what Br. Branham came to turn out hearts back to…………
If an angel comes to you from the presence of God and teaches you doctrines that differ to those that Paul taught, have him be accursed. Galatians 1; 8

The Lord thy God is one God. And, that the father and Jesus are one. John 10; 30

We believe there is only one Lord, one faith and one baptism. Ephesians 4; 5

He is a Spirit and those that worship Him must worship Him in Spirit. John 4; 24

Man shall not live by bread alone but by every word that proceeds from the mouth of God. Matthew 4; 4

All of God’s Word is given by inspiration of the Holy Ghost. 2 Timothy 3; 16

The Scripture is of no personal interpretation. 2 Peter 1; 20

He who adds to this Word or takes from this word will have his name removed from the Lamb’s Book of Life and / or will receive the plagues written in the Word. Revelation 22; 18 &19

The gracious gift’s and calling’s of God are without repentance. Romans 11; 29

Christians believe that the Lord’s Supper is a supper and not a breakfast or a lunch.

We believe that, as Jesus set us an example by washing the disciples feet and warned us that, if we did it not, He will have no part with us and us with Him. John 13; 1-17

He warned us that the bread used for communion MUST NOT have any leaven in it. Leaven representing man-made doctrines. Exodus 12; 15 and Leviticus 2; 11. Matthew 16; 6. 1 Corinthians 5; 6,7 & 8

He showed us that we should drink WINE as a symbol of His blood, not grape juice. Wine is symbolic of stimulation of revelation.

If one takes not of communion, there is no life in the said person. And if takes communion unworthily, eats damnation unto himself, not discerning the Lord’s body. 1 Corr.11; 23-32

We believe that a woman’s hair is given to her for a covering and should be worn long. And that it is a shame for a man to have long hair. 1 Corinthians 11; 14 and 15. And verse 16 tells us that if any man is contentious (quarrelsome, causing dispute) about it, it is our custom not to argue with him about it. She must adorn them selves in modest apparel, with shamefacedness and sobriety; not with broided, (Greek; woven, plaited, braided or twisted together) hair, or gold, or pearls, or costly array. Let the woman learn in silence and with all subjection, not to teach scripture and nor to usurp authority over man for Adam was first formed, then Eve. And Adam was not deceived, but the woman being deceived, was in transgression. 1 Timothy 2; 9-15 and Matthew 5; 27 and 28

We believe that all things are possible and that all things work together for the good of those who love the Lord. Romans 8; 28

We believe that the Bride will have a major demonstration of power for a short while just before the rapture, the coming of the Lord. John 14; 12

One of the most important doctrines of the true Christian believer is the baptism, (total submersion in water) in Jesus’ name. This separates the bride, (the wise and foolish virgins) from the denominated churches, which are bundled into the World Council of Churches, the image to the beast.

Yes my friend, let God’s Word be truth and man’s word be a lie. It is a separating time and these doctrines, the revealed Word of this hour, is what separates the true Word Seed from the chaff.
Acts 5; 29. Romans 2; 8. and 2 Thessalonians 1; 8 and 3; 14 and Hebrews 5; 9 1 Peter1; 14 and 3; 1
God expects us to love him and to show it by being obedient to His Word, all of His Word.

Don’t let man deceive you into believing that doctrines are not important, they are vital to identifying yourself with the message of the moment you find yourself in. Doctrines for bygone days are doctrines for bygone days. Today, all the Word has been revealed and thereby are we judging ourselves so we are not counted among those who wipe their feet on the blood of our Lord. That we crucify not, the Lord afresh by our foolish ways and doctrines of man for there be many who will put it to you as wolves in sheep’s clothing that it is OK to believe only that, that you want to. Be sorely aware and fear Satan for he seeks to devour you through disbelief of the doctrines of the Lord our God whom we Love and loved us before the foundations of the world so much, that he wrote our names in the Book of Life because we believed, obeyed and overcame the lies and temptation of the devil, that evil deceiver of the brethren.

Ask and it shall be given. Everything that you require to make the rapture is provided for you in the Word. Lean on Jesus. Pray for the Holy Spirit to be bestowed upon you and He will show you all truth. The promise is yours for the taking. It is a finished work!

You may think that these are strict and stern rules, and they are, but we are not expected to try to reason God’s will for us but just to believe it and obey it the way He say’s it. He rebukes and chastens all those that He loves. Who are we to question God’s ways anyway. We are saved by His grace from everlasting death. Is that not reason enough to bend and kneel to His wishes. Who do we think we are that we would want to change God’s rules….. Satan? Question what spirit is leading you and be thankful that God tolerates us. It is only because of the Blood of His Son that we have a chance for salvation. We Christians are grateful for His tender mercies and that is why we reject carnality and believe Him explicitly and without question. Any wife who loves her husband with a Godly love will obey him without question. So do we!

Where did Mohammed and The Islamic Koran (Qu’ran) Originate?

Once again I’m making use of information that is readily available in some libraries, some bookshops ……. but not too many, and on the internet, where everyone can post whatever they like. It is amazing the amount of information available on this and other subjects of like nature and affiliated topics.

Educate yourselves since the truth has been hidden from you for obvious reasons. The history that you learned at school was smokescreens. ‘They’ have controlled the educational systems with an iron fist for ages.

Anyway, below is further evidence from another scholar’s findings but from a different point of view. You will quickly see the relationship of the Illuminati manipulating their evil ways in order to obtain their goal, a One World Government.

Don’t, for one moment think that you are safe or immune from these Devil’s helpers.

We apologize to anyone who may be offended by the true history of the ‘founder’ of Islam (Mohammed) below. And we are aware of the sensitivities involved. However, infinitely more damage has been done to Islam's "everyday believers" by Islam's history of withholding the truth about its founder to them -- - and the circumstances surrounding its inception -- than any "damage" this true history below can cause.
This article is intended to warn Christians who may be "duped" into Islam, because they did not have all the facts. The immortal souls of billions of individuals are involved here. To good Muslims I say; "I have sympathy with your having to grow up in a closed society -- where not embracing Islam would have gotten you shunned or even killed". According to many interpretations of the Qu’ran, conversion from Islam is punishable by death. Read the true history of Islam below and then look into your own heart to see if you are missing something. Today may be the time to free yourself from that tyrannical yoke of living in a false religion.
Most Muslims do not realize that Islam allows no freedom, and this alone should make them realize that it is Satan behind Islam who wishes to enslave Muslims, to turn them away from the truth. Islamic law encourages Muslims to proselytize. Islam, however, clearly forbids others to proselytize to Muslims - because hearing the truth as revealed in the Christian Bible would weaken this false path to God; which Islam surely is.
Christians need to remember, Jesus Christ warned us that if you deny Him, He will deny you before the Father. Islam is built on subtle lies which have been concocted by evil men. Islam is the only religion that says that Jesus did not die on the cross. It denies this historical fact about Jesus which therefore negates the salvation given us by the Son of God's painful death and miraculous resurrection from the dead.
Muslims think they have "this base" covered because they show reverence to Jesus as a "great Prophet" only.
However, only those who have been chosen by the Holy Spirit to truly believe that Jesus of Nazareth was born, died to atone for our sins, and rose again from the dead have not "denied Jesus". You "deny" Jesus when you do not follow His teachings such as He is the only way to the Father and salvation. You deny Jesus when you do not make Him the center of your life. Jesus of Nazareth is the Jewish Messiah foretold thousands of years before His arrival by numerous Prophets of God. Jesus led a sinless life. And only Jesus, the Son of the Father is the awaited Christ and mediator between you and the Father.
The Koran is without a doubt filled with many serious scientific, historical and theological errors.
The Islamic Koran (Qu'ran), unlike the Judeo-Christian Bible is written in a style that is deliberately misleading. The Koran is written in an esoteric, mysterious and vague style. It is also written in the incorrect order, as if the uninspired human – ‘Mohammed’ died before putting it together correctly.
Alas, Mohammed could neither, read or write.
The Christian Bible has been scrutinized and acknowledged to be without error by leading evangelical scholars over the centuries - as one would expect an inspired book from God to be. The Koran was written 500 years after the Christian Bible was completed. If it too is truly an inspired book from God, it too should measure up to be as infallible as the Christian Bible.
If you expect the Koran to be as internally consistent and as factually correct as the Christian Bible is - you are wrong. A few examples follow:
In the days of Mohammed's wife A'isha, one chapter of the Koran (the Sura) had about 200 versus. Shortly after her death, this Sura had only 73 versus. Muslims say that 127 versus of the original test were lost and never found.
Islamic scholars in Egypt and Saudi Arabia agree with Mohammed, that lightning and thunder are two angels.
The Koran teaches that the world is flat. This doctrine is believed by Islamic scholars even today. The Jewish/Christian Bible revealed that the earth is round in Isaiah 40:22 and via Job. Speaking of God in Isaiah 40:22, the Jewish/Christian Bible says; "It is he that sitteth upon the circle of the earth".
The Jewish-Christian Bible is a journal-like record of creation, including of the earths initial conditions. It is obvious that only the Bible is both supernaturally accurate and inspired. The Bible correctly describes creation from the standpoint of astrophysics and geophysics. It also summarizes the sequence of changes through which the Earth came to be inhabited by living things (dinosaurs and the like), and ultimately by humans. The Bibles' order and its description of creation perfectly matches established records of nature.

THE BIG BANG in the BIBLE:
Evidence has increased in favor of a "Big Bang" precursor to creation ever since Abbe Georges Lemaitre, a Jesuit priest and scientist first promoted the idea of a "Big Bang" in 1925. Albert Einstein had earlier predicted an expanding universe from a beginning, from an infinitesimal volume immediately after his theory of general relativity. But even Georges Lemaitre and Albert Einstein were upstaged thousands of years earlier by the inspired Bible authors: Moses, Jeremiah, Isaiah, King David and Christian New Testament authors. All these authors wrote about the fundamental properties of a long ago "Big Bang" when they repeatedly declared a transcendent cosmic beginning a finite time ago, and a universe presently undergoing a general, continuous expansi
