Bible Believers' Newsletter 1000
"We focus on the present Truth � what Jesus is doing now. . ."
ISSN 1442-8660Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ, and welcome to His brothers, sisters and friends who love and are able to receive the Truth in He who is "the way, and the truth, and eternal Life." It is our under-serving privilege to share fellowship with you.
This week Euthanasia legislation passed in the lower house of the parliament of Victoria, Australia. This is Rockefeller policy that was introduced into the united States and Germany prior to World War II; its introduction in Australia and other countries at this time confirms the reality of what Peter called "the present Truth" for it reflects the spirit of Laodicea which means "rights of the people" or Judaeo-Communism that was first trialled by Judaeo-Jesuits who introduced it into Paraguay in 1609 and continued to 1843. This legislation shows us that Satan ,who is named "death" under the Fourth Seal of Revelation 6:8, is on his last ride!
Also this week "Marriage Equality" legislation passed in the Federal Parliament with the assistance from Georg Soros, his "Get up" and related fronts. This is another perverse encouragement to Christ's end-time Bride signalling the imminent end of the Christian dispensation, manifestation of the Sons of God, first resurrection and translation.
Our main article, "Parentheses in Revelation 13," traces the rise of the beast throughout "the times of the Gentiles" to Satan's incarnation through the four successive Gentile world empires whose attributes coalesce in a global church kingdom that spawns a subordinate image that directs, nay, forces worship of itself. Satan will incarnate "that man of sin, the son of perdition." Revelation 13:11-18, modern history and the daily news confirm the destiny of the united States of America is the image unto the beast.
This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. Whoever will receive the truth is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything here presented should be confirmed personally in your own Bible.
Your brother-in-Christ

Urgent Prayer Request
November 16, 2017 � Prosecutors are moving to have at least 21 sermons, including "An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages," banned in Russia. Rumours of arrests and confiscation of a container of material are untrue.
Prosecutors are arguing extremism; however, whoever brought the case against has spliced quotations from various sermons to misrepresent what Brother Branham was teaching. The court, scheduled for Monday, November 20, will determine whether to allow or ban the literature.
Please petition the Lord in behalf of His Work and the saints in Russia. Full story: branham.org
Criminal War Propaganda
November 7, 2017 � The Pentagon budget alone for illegal war propaganda is about $626,000,000 per year . . . contamination of the public mindset is a necessary precondition to aggressive, criminal warfare in furtherance of a self-devouring political economy. Once the public is convinced that there is a War On Terror (which is a Big Lie), further astronomical transfers of money from the people to the oligarchs and narrow vested interests�all to the detriment of the vast majority of the population�are easy to justify.
Over the course of the dirty war on Syria, for example, the annual CIA budget in support of the terrorists invading Syria�all of the terrorists�has been about $1,000,000,000 per year, and that is only a small fraction of monies spent to support terrorism in Syria. Bill Van Auken notes in "General lets slip US Escalation in Syria" that Washington's "key regional allies, Saudi Arabia, Qatar and Turkey, poured in billions more to ignite a war that has killed hundreds of thousands and turned millions into refugees"
. . . A new trend now is to re-brand al Qaeda�and all of the terrorists invading Syria are al Qaeda or al Qaeda affiliates, including ISIS�as the "good guys." Syrian Ambassador to the UN, Bashar Ja'afari is well aware of the importance of word choices and how words are used to contaminate public perceptions. He stresses the importance, for example, of recognizing that the Syrian government is a government, and not a "regime".
Similarly, the terrorists are not "Islamic" not only because of their deviant ideology, but especially because their actions defy any sane notions of Islam. Nor are the terrorists "jihadis," especially since some of their most ardent supporters are Zionists. And of course the war isn't a civil war. The terrorists are there because of the West and its allies, not despite the West and its allies. When incorrect nomenclature is used and repeated, however, public perceptions invariably shift . . . Journalists who prostitute themselves by telling their fellow citizens lies are . . . war criminals and should be judged as such . . . Full story: globalresearch.ca
Comment: The destiny of the United States is Revelation 13:11-18.
When RussiaGate goes Really, Really, Really Viral
November 1, 2017 � Russian genetic material is being harvested all over the country, purposefully and professionally . . . the latest chilling reminder of the globalist war on Russia . . . foreign viewers recording the people in these [Russian] elections, and more freakishly, tissue samples being taken from ". . . different ethnic groups and people living in different geographical regions of the Russian Federation." Mr. Putin went on to assure his audience there is nothing to be afraid of, for Russia's intelligence community is well armed to deal with such an attack . . . a July tender from the US Air Force Air Education and Training Command on a US government website seeking to acquire samples of ribonucleic acid (RNA) and synovial fluid from Russians . . .
A member of the UN Commission on Biological Weaponry, Igor Nikulin told reporters:
"New types of biological weapons are being developed. There's nothing else that could possibly interest the military department. Most likely, they are weaponized viruses. The US is trying to develop various types of biological weapons specifically for specific carriers of this gene pool, and Caucasoids are needed since they constitute the majority of the population of our country. This is the same focus group for which they are trying to find the samples. It's necessary for the viruses to act selectively on one or another ethnic group."
. . . DNA research could be capable of killing on the individual level at some point. Reading the advertisement by the Air Force sends a chill up my spine, for it is damning to the extreme. Not only does the ad spell out the exact "sample" quantity etc, it spells out how the Air Force will pay would-be DNA spies:
"In addition, information on donors must be provided with the samples, including their sex, age, ethnicity, smoking history, medical history, height, weight and Body Mass Index (BMI). The samples must be delivered to the Lockland Air Force Base near San Antonio, Texas, within 10 days after the contractor receives the money."
. . . Russian media aside, the facts of US biological weapons research aimed at Russia and ALL other perceived enemies is abundant. This report from Air Force Colonel Michael J. Ainscough from back in 2002 outlines how "future" bioweapons will be developed, deployed, and used. From this report we learned that the Pentagon under the Bush Administration was not nearly as concerned with Iraq's WMDs, but instead focused heavily on bioweapons of the former Soviet Union (Chapter I). However, damning the implications of the colonel's focus may be, Colonel Ainscough's paper was clearly intended to be used to justify America's later stage bio-weapons developments. Ideas like weaponizing the deadly Ebola virus soon became weapons research reality.
This report from The Atlantic (of all places) told us back in 2012, that Putin and other world leaders might already be in danger of a hit by some DNA weapon or other. To quote the lead from 2012:
"The US government is surreptitiously collecting the DNA of world leaders, and is reportedly protecting that of Barack Obama. Decoded, these genetic blueprints could provide compromising information. In the not-too-distant future, they may provide something more as well�the basis for the creation of personalized bioweapons that could take down a president and leave no trace" . . .

But that Angel was given commission, Don't touch those who has the Seal of God upon their forehead" (God's Provided Way of Approach to Fellowship, #60-0709; Leviticus 26:16; Deuteronomy 28:21-22; Zechariah 14:12).
The Truth about Radical Islam
November 8, 2017 � There are approximately 1.8 billion Muslims on Earth. That is approximately 24% of the world population. They live in regions spanning North Africa, the Middle East, Central Asia, and reaching as far as Southeast Asia. There are Muslim communities in virtually every nation�and in many�they have played a pivotal, constructive, and welcomed role in national development.
If even 1% of the world's Muslims were violent terrorists bent on conquering the world, that would constitute an army 18 million strong�or in other words�larger than the next 20 largest armies on Earth combined. Most critics of Islam infer that the number is actually much higher than 1%�many suggesting that the majority of Muslims either are engaged in or support terrorism. It is logical to conclude that if even 1% were dedicated to terrorism and the "conquest of infidels," the war would have ended in their favour long ago.
It is clear that not even 1% across Islam is engaged in or supporting terrorism. Across the Arab World, the vast majority of Muslims, Christians, other sects, and the secular, stand united against terrorism. It is clear that a mountain of lies stands between many and the truth�a mountain built so tall that it leaves entire segments of targeted populations in the perpetual darkness of ignorance.
The source of terrorism is not the Qu'ran . . . but rather a very easily traced money trail that leads to Washington and London . . . the Western World that has created, branded, and marketed "radical Islam" . . . a strictly political tool designed to provoke direct Western military interventions where possible, and fight conflicts by proxy whenever direct military intervention is not possible.
In Syria and Iraq, the US has used its terrorist proxies to do both�first to fight the government of Damascus and its allies by proxy, and when that failed, to set a pretext for direct US military intervention . . . domestically . . . the United States and much of Europe has been transformed into an invasive police state . . . For those that have been sucked up into "radical Islam," it seems very real. Just as the US uses patriotism to convince young men and women to devote their lives to foreign invasions, wars, and occupations against scores of sovereign nations around the world�predicated on "freedom, democracy, and self-determination" even as US militarism strips all of the above away from the planet . . . "radical Islam" does not exist in a vacuum. It requires a medium to interact with . . . equally extreme, but opposite "radical ignorance" and fear sown across the Western population. Together, the two feed each other . . . Militant Islam is a relatively new phenomenon, invented by the [D�nmeh Jew] House of Saud, then cultivated and exploited to its full potential by the British Empire and its American heirs . . . As the British Empire unravelled, the Americans picked up where [the Jews' City of] London left off . . .
Muslims and Islam are blamed and the same collection of elementary talking points are rolled out to fan the flames of hatred and hysteria. Points of logic including the number of Muslims on Earth versus the actual number of terrorists are never discussed. Also never discussed is the fact that terrorists�particularly those either members of the self-titled "Islamic State" (ISIS) and Al Qaeda, or those inspired by such groups�are indoctrinated, radicalized, armed, funded, and supported by Washington, London, Brussels, and a collection of the West's closest allies in the Middle East�namely Saudi Arabia, Qatar, Turkey, Jordan, and Israel.
It was in a leaked 2012 US Defense Intelligence Agency (DIA) memo that revealed the US and its allies' intent to create what it called a "Salafist principality" in eastern Syria. The memo would explicitly state that (emphasis added):
On clarifying who these supporting powers were, the DIA memo would state:If the situation unravels there is the possibility of establishing a declared or undeclared Salafist principality in eastern Syria (Hasaka and Der Zor), and this is exactly what the supporting powers to the opposition want, in order to isolate the Syrian regime, which is considered the strategic depth of the Shia expansion (Iraq and Iran).
The West, Gulf countries, and Turkey support the opposition; while Russia, China, and Iran support the regime.
The "Salafist" (Islamic) "principality" (State) would indeed be created precisely in eastern Syria as US policymakers and their allies had set out to do. It would be branded as the "Islamic State" and be used first to wage a more muscular proxy war against Damascus, and when that failed, to invite US military forces to intervene in the conflict directly.
In 2014, in an e-mail between US Counsellor to the President John Podesta and former US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton, it would be admitted that two of America's closest regional allies�Saudi Arabia and Qatar�were providing financial and logistical support to ISIS.
The e-mail, leaked to the public through Wikileaks, stated:
. . . we need to use our diplomatic and more traditional intelligence assets to bring pressure on the governments of Qatar and Saudi Arabia, which are providing clandestine financial and logistic support to [ISIS] and other radical Sunni groups in the region.
Despite admissions from the United States military and high-level politicians that ISIS was literally a creation of its own intentional foreign policy and perpetuated through state-sponsorship by America's closest regional allies, both the administrations of President Barack Obama and President Trump would continue signing weapon deals, maintaining diplomatic ties, and strengthening military and economic cooperation with these state-sponsors of terror.
Simultaneously, the US and Europe also continue encouraging and protecting Saudi Arabia's global network of faux-madrases�centers of indoctrination often under the watch and even co-management of Western intelligence agencies ensuring a constant, fresh supply of potential patsies for local terrorist attacks and recruits for the West's proxy armies fighting abroad.
In other words, the problem of "radical Islam" is manufactured and perpetuated by the West. Without the money, weapons, and support provided by the US and Europe to nations like Saudi Arabia, their toxic political tools would quickly dull and be swept into the dustbin of human history. As seen in Syria itself, where hundreds of trucks per day from NATO territory are no longer able to supply ISIS positions within the country, ISIS is unable to sustain itself. It lacks genuine popular support in a region where the vast majority of Muslims, Christians, and the secular remain united against it and has no means of sustaining itself without immense and constant state sponsorship . . .
But for those with the moral integrity to do so, a genuine look into "radical Islam" will reveal a much more troubling and real enemy. One that does not menace us with a foreign culture, religion, or ideology from abroad, but one that lies right in our midst, cloaked in patriotism, humanitarianism, and all that passes for "Western civilization" today.

Comment: Here are the facts: Albert Pike designed a plan for world conquest and wrote of it in a letter to Mazzini dated August 15, 1871. He said three future world wars would prepare the world for the New World Order. Pike's plan for the Illuminati was as simple as it has proved effective. He required that Communism, Nazism, Political Zionism, and other International movements be organized and used to foment the three global wars and three major revolutions.
The First World War was to be fought so as to enable the Illuminati to overthrow the powers of the Tsars in Russia and turn that country into the stronghold of Atheistic-Communism. The differences stirred up by agentur of the Illuminati between the British and German Empires were to be used to foment this war. After the war ended, Communism was to be built up and used to destroy other governments and weaken religions.
World War Two was to be fomented by using the differences between Fascists and Political Zionists. This war was to be fought so that Nazism would be destroyed and the power of Political Zionism increased so that the sovereign state of Israel could be established in Palestine. During World War Two International Communism was to be built up until it equalled in strength that of united Christendom. At this point it was to be contained and kept in check until required for the final social cataclysm. Can any informed person deny Roosevelt and Churchill did put this policy into effect? [As Jesus showed Brother Branham in Revelation 16:12-14 and in his apocalypse of continuous visions; five are fulfilled, the sixth and seventh are at hand].
World War Three is to be fomented using the differences the agentur of the Illuminati stir up between Political Zionists and the leaders of the Moslem world. The war is to be directed in such a manner that Islam (the Arab World including Mohammedanism) and Political Zionism (including the State of Israel) will destroy themselves while at the same time the remaining nations, once more divided against each other on this issue, will be forced to fight themselves into a state of complete exhaustion physically, mentally, spiritually and economically. Can any unbiased and reasoning person deny that the intrigue now going on in the Near, Middle, and Far East is designed to accomplish this devilish purpose?
After World War Three is ended, those who aspire to undisputed world domination will provoke the greatest social cataclysm the world has ever known. We quote his own written words taken from the letter catalogued in the British Museum Library, London, England.
"We shall unleash the Nihilists and Atheists, and we shall provoke a formidable social cataclysm which in all its horror will show clearly to the nations the effect of absolute atheism, origin of savagery and of the most bloody turmoil. Then everywhere, the citizens, obliged to defend themselves against the world minority of revolutionaries, will exterminate those destroyers of civilization, and the multitude, disillusioned with Christianity, whose deistic spirits will be from that moment without compass (direction), anxious for an ideal, but without knowing where to render its adoration, will receive the true light through the universal manifestation of the pure doctrine of Lucifer, brought finally out in the public view, a manifestation which will result from the general reactionary movement which will follow the destruction of Christianity and atheism, both conquered and exterminated at the same time" (William Guy Carr, Pawns in the Game, p. xv-xvi). This strategy is also recognized by Dr. Dennis L. Cuddy PhD. in The Power Elite's use of Wars and Crises.
Parentheses in Revelation 13
In studying Revelation 12 we discovered a parenthesis in verses 1-6 encapsulating the conversion of the "woman," Israel's elect, from the Law to grace on the Day of Pentecost to bear the "man child" or New Testament Church which was comprised primarily of Israelites until the seventh century. The birth of Jesus by the virgin Mary in 4BC was a secondary analogy under dominion of "the red dragon" of Imperial Rome and the persecution of Herod the Great thirty-three years before the Day of Pentecost, and before Judeans, seduced by Talmudic tales, crucified Messiah and were blotted from the Book of Life (Isaiah 9:15-16; Exodus 32:33; Joshua 5:6; Psalm 95:10-11; John 6:49; Hebrews 6:4-8; Jude 5).
After the Pergamean Church Age (AD312-606) the "woman" or Church, then comprised of mainly Gentile converts, fled to the New World to worship according to faith and conscience. Verse 6 was God's promise to America showing us how Israel, which fled Egypt via the wilderness to the Promised Land then ended in apostasy, destruction and dissolution, types the sparsely populated wilderness of America whence the Church fled and built a great nation that is now apostate and will end in nuclear annihilation (Romans 11:32). Israel's first kings David and Solomon were great men, like America's first presidents, Washington and Lincoln; then Ahab and his pagan Serpent's seed wife were enthroned and a series of pharaoh's who did not know our Joseph occupied the White House. Hence last and seventh vision of Brother Branham's 1933 apocalypse "was wherein I heard a most terrible explosion. As I turned to look I saw nothing but debris, craters, and smoke all over the land of America" (An Exposition of the Seventh Church Age, p. 322:3).
Verses 7-17 bring us to the casting down of Satan with his followers at the end of the Gentile dispensation after our translation with a retrospect of the martyred Church Age saints (Revelation 7:9-14; 20:4). In verses 12-14 Satan is cast down to earth to persecute "the woman," once more elect Israelites gathered into the spiritual wilderness of the Land of the Covenant by "the two witnesses" of Zechariah 4, Matthew 24:31 and Revelation 11 in the first half of Daniel's Seventieth Week as promised in Isaiah 11:10-12.
Verses 15-16 transport us to the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week: Rome has broken her covenant with the International Jews, enforced her trinitarian religion, martyred Israel's two witnesses and sent NATO to martyr the 144,000 (Revelation 17:12-13). An earthquake "swallows up" her army. This is the earthquake of Revelation 11:13 that marks the resurrection and ascension of the two witnesses. In Revelation 12 Satan and his host were cast down to earth to incarnate his people; verse 17 begins the second half of Daniel's Seventieth Week.
Revelation 13:1-10 introduces a parenthesis tracing the development of the beast through "the times of the Gentiles" from Babylon the Great to mystery, Babylon the Great, the mother of harlots and abominations of the earth, and Satan's incarnation. "And he [the Dragon, having temporarily disappeared following his wounding as the beast of Imperial Rome now] stood upon the sand of the sea [in his new incarnation subservient to the woman or Judaeo-Roman church, which he will ultimately destroy]. And I saw a beast rise up out of the sea, having seven heads and ten horns, and upon his horns ten crowns, and upon his heads the names of blasphemy." This beast is the Holy Roman Empire of Papal Rome because the crowns are on the ten horns or kingdoms into which Imperial Rome divided (Revelation 17:12-17; Daniel 2). These will give their power and authority to the beast confirming a covenant with the usurers to refinance the US dollar with gold backing and preserve Judaeo-Roman dominion, democracy (sic) and Jewish paper wealth from Judaeo-Communism. Brother Branham prophesied, "This nation is going to be busted . . . If we're living off of taxes, due bills for forty years from now, where are we at? There's only one thing can happen. That's to call in the currency and pay off the bonds; and we can't do it. Wall Street owns them, and Wall Street's controlled by the Jews; the rest of it's in the Vatican, and the Jews has got the rest of it in Wall Street with the commerce of the world" (The Revelation of the Seven Seals, p. 168:5).
Our Bible type is found in Genesis 32-33 where Jacob was returning to the Land of the Covenant, fearful lest brother Esau should "smite me, and the mother with the children." And Jacob wrestled with God in the flesh of a created Man, who advised him how to proceed and changed his name to Israel. Dividing his handmaids and their children, and his wives and their children with their livestock, Jacob passed over before them, bowing himself to the ground seven times, a type of the times of the Gentiles, 2,520 years (Leviticus 26:18; Hosea 6:1-3; Luke 21:24; Romans 11:25), until he came near to his brother. He could not buy Esau's favour for he had need of nothing, and the usurers will be unable to buy Rome's favour and will confirm the covenant of Daniel 9:27 as Jacob and Esau reached an agreement. Jacob represents the 144,000 elect Israelites returning to the Land of the Covenant for redemption in "the time of Jacob's trouble." In the midst of Daniel's Seventieth Week their two witnesses will be martyred and the nation will be delivered at the end of the second half of the Week (Isaiah 13; 34; Daniel 12:1). Esau, who swore to kill Jacob (Genesis 27:39-41), types the non-Semitic, anti-Semitic self-styled Jews, physical Serpent's seed whose names were never in the genealogy of Adam's race, and apostate Gentiles whose names have been removed.
Politically the revived Roman Empire will be NATO. When Rome breaks her covenant and takes the money-power away from Jewry the Black Nobility will ally Judaeo-Communist Russia against the Judaeo-Roman Universal Church and the united States. Russia will "make Vatican City State desolate and naked, and eat her flesh and burn her with [nuclear] fire" (Leviticus 21:9; Revelation 17:16; 18:4-20), and annihilate the united States.
The "seven heads are seven mountains on which Rome sits, and they are seven kings: five have fallen, one is, and the other has not yet come; when he comes he must remain a short space." Of these seven Roman emperors, Julius Caesar, Augustus, Tiberius, Caligula and Claudius had fallen; Nero (the last relative of the Caesars under whose reign Vespasian commenced the siege of Jerusalem as prophesied in Ezekiel 9 and Matthew 24:1-3a, 15-21) was ruling at the start of the Ephesian Church Age when John was writing�"and one was yet to come"�Galba (who reigned seven months and six days). These seven deified Roman emperors owned "the names of blasphemy" (William Branham, The Mark of the Beast, p. 34:253-256; The Revelation of the Seven Seals, p. 219:2-6).
"And the beast that was, and is not, is himself an eighth [deified ruler of Rome], and is of the seven, and goes into perdition" (Revelation 17:11; 6:8; 19:20; 20:10). Under apostolic succession when one pope dies another pope ascends Satan's throne. When "he who weakened the nations is cut down to earth" Lucifer himself will incarnate the last pope as the eighth deified man ruling "all the kingdoms of the world and the glory of them" (Revelation 2:13; Matthew 4:8). "As he said in his heart, I will ascend to heaven; I will raise my throne above the stars of God: I will sit on the mount of the congregation in the sides of the north; I will be like the most High" (Isaiah 14:12-14).
In scripture a beast signifies a power; the Greek word 'therion' means a ferocious untamed beast, usually a brutal, bestial man. The beast in Revelation 11 is Papal Rome; in Revelation 13 it is both Papal Rome and her (once) Protestant US image. Verses 11-18 prophesy the destiny of the united States. In this image will be found all the wickedness of the beast that was before it. "As the beast rose at the Nicene Council, her image will come out of the World Council of Churches with all ungodly and satanic power to vent the anger of the Devil upon the true vine of God. It will be a repeat performance of all diabolical cunning and cruelty" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 132; Revelation 13:15-18). In Revelation 17 the beast is Papal Rome and the united States consolidated�fulfilling the sixth vision of Brother Branham's apocalypse.
Revelation 13:4-10 is set in the first half of Daniel's Seventieth Week. No one can make war with the beast because, having refinanced the US dollar with gold backing she holds the wealth of the world. Papal power will increase so no one can war against him. His mouth as the mouth of a lion speaks arrogant words and blasphemies�"teaching for doctrine the commandments of men, heady, high-minded, having a form of godliness but denying the power thereof." He blasphemes the Name of God by changing it to Titles and refusing correction, and he blasphemes departed saints such as Mary, Peter and Jude, making them intercessors. And power is given him to continue forty and two months (Daniel 7:25; 12:7; Revelation 11:2; 12:14). And it was given to him to make war with the living saints, and to overcome them, torturing and killing the true believer in the Name of the Lord for refusing Judaeo-Roman dogma (Daniel 12:5-7; Revelation 13:15; 14:9, 11).
"The beast that rose up out of the sea" represents the sum of historical worldly political antichristianity as embraced in the corrupt Christianity of its final consummate appearance as Papal Rome�so, likewise, "the woman," contrasted with the "beast," is the whole Kingdom of God which divides into the two forms of the "Harlot" and the "Bride" of Christ. Thus in Revelation 17:3 we read, "So he carried me away in spirit into a wilderness: and I saw a woman [the Judaeo-Roman Universal Church] sitting upon a scarlet wild-beast, full of blasphemous names, having seven heads and ten horns." She sits on many waters or nationalities; world leaders have committed spiritual fornication [idolatry] with her and the inhabitants of earth have been made drunk with the psychology of her fornication as the Israelites were blotted from the Book of Life by Talmudic psychology (Isaiah 9:15-16; Revelation 12:4). She is "the mother of harlots and abominations of the earth." Earthly states and cultures have been seduced from the true God to serve false gods in company and connection with her. Through her subservient image "all who dwell on the earth whose name has not been written in the Book of Life of the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world will be forced to worship the beast" (Revelation 13:8, 15-18).
Brother Branham, the angel with the Seventh Vial revealed these mysteries to John who types Christ's end-time Bride (Revelation 17:1). He said, "Right now the churches are controlling politics and at the opportune time will manifest exactly how great is that control. This ecumenical move will end up with Rome at the head even though the people did not envision it that way. This is so because in Revelation 17:3-6 it states that the whore, Mystery Babylon is seated on the beast. She is controlling the last, or fourth empire. This Roman Church is doing that. With the world church system under her Rome will be controlling, and this image (church system) will be obedient to Rome because Rome controls the gold of the world" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 376:1).
Like the fourth beast of Daniel 7, the beast of Revelation 13 is a compound of the variegated colours of the Leopard (Greece), the ursine feet of the Medo-Persian bear, and the mouth of the Babylonian lion with the monstrous addition of seven heads. So the condemnations and blessings in the letters to the angels of the Seven Church Ages are cumulative. Revelation 3:10, "Because you have kept the Word of My patience, I also will keep you from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth." This temptation is exactly like the temptation in Eden, seducing the woman, the remnant church. It will be a very inviting proposition held up in direct opposition to God's commanded Word, and yet from the standpoint of human reasoning it will be so very right, so enlightening and life-giving as to fool the world."
"Only the very elect will not be fooled. The temptation will come as follows. The ecumenical move that has started on what seems such a beautiful and blessed principle (fulfilling Christ's prayer that we all might be one) becomes so strong politically that she bears pressure upon the government to cause all to join with her either directly or through adherence to principles enacted into law so that no people will be recognized as actual churches unless under direct or indirect domination of this council. Little groups will lose charters, privileges, etc., until they lose all property and spiritual rights with the people."
Already there is a boycott. When I visited the Penitentiary in Marion, Ohio, each month I had to enter on the coat tails of Gideons International because we are not a denomination: similar restrictions apply in Australia. A Christian Museum has opened in Washington D.C. to pressure government to restore America to the faith of the founding fathers. (I doubt this Museum will feature the real holocaust of Christians by Jews in Cyprus, Dresden, Nagasaki or Russia and scores of millions of Christians tortured and martyred by their Roman Catholic church). Based on past reputation they think God will save America when the 1956 jubilee of the Azusa Street revival was her last opportunity for national repentance. God did not respect Israel for what they had been in the past, He damned them for what they were in the present (II Chronicles 7:14). The united States has been weighed in the balance and found wanting. America is doomed. When the state sells out to the church as signified in Revelation 13:11, church and state will be united contrary to the fathers.
As this move becomes the "IMAGE ERECTED TO THE BEAST," the saints will be gone in the rapture. And this delightful, winsome movement that started out in fellowship at Ephesus where Christians endured "and put to the test those who say they are apostles, and are not, and found to be liars" causing the true Church to "fall from its first love" (Revelation 2:1-7), "ecumenism will become the monster of Satan that defiles and deceives the whole world. For the church system of the Roman Catholic and the Protestant in coming together will control the whole wealth of the world system and force the whole earth into its religious trap, or will kill them, by refusing them the privilege of buying and selling whereby they would make a living. This will be accomplished simply, for the harlot's daughters are all but gone back to her. In the meantime, Rome has acquired nearly all the supplies of gold. The Jews have the bonds and all the paper. At the right time, the harlot will destroy the present day money system by calling in all the paper, and demanding gold. With no gold, the system falls. The Jews will be trapped and come into the alliance, and the harlot church will take over the world" (ibid, p. 313:2; 314:1).
The united States is the only beast that rose out of the relatively unpopulated earth, all of the other beasts rose up out of the sea; thickness and multitudes of people. Christ incarnates Himself by justification by grace through faith, sanctification, and the baptism with the Holy Spirit. He will come with the clouds of heaven (Daniel 7:13).
Brother Branham explained, "Satan has incarnate himself from antichrist to false prophet now, and in the days of the Jew [when most Christians were Israelites, he] was antichrist amongst the early Church. In the Dark Ages he become a false prophet to the world. See her there with her cup of iniquity. Now, that's to the Church Age."
"Now, but in the age after the Church goes Home, he becomes a beast. He becomes the Devil incarnate, the Red Dragon himself. Oh, my. Can't you see what I mean? He's incarnate in his people then. He's got his people bound by his power. The false prophet has prophesied them right into it, give them over to strong delusions to believe a lie and be damned by it, denying the Word with a form of godliness."
"God works His place in a trinity: justification, sanctification and incarnates Himself in His people with the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Same thing. The Devil's just in a type after Christ. Oh, Satan incarnates himself . . . And when Satan become incarnate into his church, if there be a Devil, then they are the ones that does the murdering and killing and so forth, because Satan is a killer in the first place, a liar and a thief" (The Revelation of the Seven Seals, p. 204:3-4, 205:4; Revelation 13:15-18; John 8:44).
We are living in the parenthesis between the Sixth and Seventh Vials (Revelation 16:13-16). As Brother Branham explained "Three unclean spirits like frogs went out of the mouth of someone." A trinity of spirits! A trinity of frogs! A frog is an animal that always looks backward. He never looks where he's going; he looks where he's come from. See? Don't you see? Where was trinitarianism born at? Remember, "three unclean spirits," individual spirits . . . Notice, they look back to the Nicaea Council where the trinity doctrine was born at, not in the Bible. There's no such a thing. They look back to the Nicaea Council at Nicaea, Rome, where the trinity was born at.
"Notice where they come from. Notice. And the trinity of frogs came out of an old [Babylonian] trinity, give birth to a new trinity, their mother [MYSTERY, BABYLON THE GREAT,THE MOTHER OF HARLOTS AND ABOMINATIONS OF THE EARTH]. What'd it come out of? A trinity, "the dragon," see, "the beast," and "the false prophet." A trinity, new. For when were these frogs come out? When did it? Notice, they was there all the time, but it wasn't manifested until between the Sixth and Seventh Vial, just before the Seals opened to reveal it.
"For in the Message of the seventh angel, the mysteries of God would be known," all these trinitarian things, and false baptisms, and everything was to be made manifest. God help us to see what's Truth! . . . Notice, a trinity! "The dragon," how many knows what the dragon was? It was Rome. "And the dragon stood before the woman to devour her child as soon as it was born." That right? What does "beast" mean in the Bible? Power. All right. "False prophet, a false prophet," a false, anointed one. See?
Started where? This is "false prophet," singular. "False prophet," the first pope; and from there come out "the whore, and the mother of harlots," the whole thing.
A false trinity was rising; not in the early days, wouldn't be made manifest in the early days, it went right on through with it. But when the Seven Seals be come, and opened those mysteries and revealed them; that's when "the frogs, three unclean spirits like frogs, come out to manifest themselves," a trinity doctrine against the Truth. See? Huh!
See where it come from? See where it's going back to? Ecumenical Council. They're all brothers, anyhow; same spirits, same thing. And watch. So deceiving, performing miracles! And these are devils that go forth to all the gods of the earth, working miracles, to deceive them in the last day, and will succeed in doing it. What did God say about that evil spirit?
Said, "I'll go down and get in the mouth of those prophets and cause them to prophesy a lie, to cause Ahab to come out there to be destroyed."
God said, "Go. You will succeed. You will get them to believe it. They're not on that Word, to begin with." See? "Go, for you will persuade him. You'll be the one will do it, when you get in them false prophets, 'cause he's relying right on them. And he don't know nothing about the Word, neither will he try to learn about It. He can't do it, because he's a thistle, to begin with." See? See? "You'll succeed" (II Chronicles 18:19-22).
Look here at these false frogs, looking back, "Why, you know what they said back there at Nicaea?"
I don't care what they said about, there at Nicaea. I'm saying what they said up here at the Throne of God; what would be, not what was; what will be, for He is "I AM." See?
"False." Look at that. Huh! Notice where they come from.
Now listen closely. We see plainly, after the Seven Seals has been opened, that's to reveal that mystery. What is that trinity? See? Where was it ever called trinity? See? Where in the Bible did It even speak the word trinity? Where could there be three Gods, that we worship three Gods and not be heathens?
How can they be separate, when He said, "I and My Father are One"? "Except you believe that I am He, you'll perish in your sin, see, your unbelief." Sin is unbelief. "You'll perish in your unbelief" (The Anointed Ones at the End Time, p. 51:236-247).
Revelation 16:15-16 places the "silence in heaven about the space of about half an hour" of Revelation 8:1 in real time, commencing with the opening of the Seven Seals and Christ's unrecognized second or (Gk.) 'parousia' Coming "as a thief in the night" on March 8, 1963 (Revelation 10:1-7; 3:3; I Thessalonians 5:2; II Peter 3:10) until the Seventh Trumpet announces the end of the Christian dispensation and calls the first resurrection, the manifestation of the Sons of God, and our translation. This is also the unrecognized threefold PROCESS of the secret, sudden rapture of Christ's end-time Bride by revelation of the "shout and the Voice of the Archangel" which has been ongoing for fifty-four years yet the world church system has neither understanding nor interest (Matthew 25:6; I Thessalonians 4:14-16; Jude 14).
Revelation 16:15-16, "Behold, I come as a thief. Blessed is he that watches, and keeps his garments that he walk not naked [like the Laodiceans Revelation 3:17)], and they see his shame." We are to be clothed in the righteous acts of saints displaying the Token of the life of Christ by revelation of the end-time Message. "And the [three spirits like frogs] gathered the kings of the earth and of the whole world together into a place called in the Hebrew tongue Armageddon".
Jesus prophesied that between the Sixth and Seventh Vials in the days of the fourth Gentile world power, three unclean spirits like frogs would look behind themselves as these unclean creatures do, yearning for the past "glories" of the Imperial and Holy Roman Empires, for these unclean spirits called Fascism, Nazism and Communism come out of the mouth of the Dragon, and out of the mouth of the beast, and out of the mouth of the false prophet (Revelation 16:13-16) to gather the world to Armageddon. Brother Branham said these three isms will be subsumed into Communism, while all false religions will become subject to Catholicism. Jesus promised His second or 'parousia' Coming "as a thief" would take place towards the end of this period, when East and West are trying to reach an accommodation through the United Nations. This meeting took place in 1960 (Daniel 2:40-45).
Brother Branham said, "I sincerely believe and maintain as a private student of the Word, along with divine inspiration that 1977 ought to terminate the world systems and usher in the millennium" (An Exposition of the Seven Church Ages, p. 322:4). The world monetary system set up at Bretton Woods died before 1977 when President Richard Nixon unilaterally closed the gold window in 1971, rendering the Bretton Woods system inoperable, so that by 1973 it was replaced by a de facto regime of floating fiat currencies that remains in place to the present day. (See Newsletters 926, 940, and 959).
Notice the god of this world is money. Rome has, or controls the gold, and Jews have the paper, laws, regulations, the Babylonian fractional reserve fiat money system of usury. I Timothy 6:10, "For the love of money is the root of all evil: which while some coveted after, they have erred from the faith, and pierced themselves through with many sorrows".
The world church system also ended in the early to mid-seventies when the revelation of Brother Branham's Message began to open to Christ's end-time Bride, causing her to separate from the Laodiceans (Matthew 25:6; I Thessalonians 4:16; Revelation 18:4). It is the early or teaching rain of Brother Branham's end-time Message during the silence in heaven the space of about half an hour that ushers us in to the millennium following the Wedding Supper of the Lamb in the sky.
Verse 10, "He that leads into captivity will go into captivity: he that kills with the sword must be killed with the sword. Here is the endurance and the faith of the 144,000 Israelite saints" (Matthew 24:13). Revelation 13:11, "I saw another savage beast (Gk.) 'therion' coming up out of the earth; and he had two horns like a lamb[representing Christianity, but soon], he spoke as a dragon [and that is Rome]." Persecuted Christians left Europe for a better life in the New World. The Pilgrim Fathers landed in America seeking religious liberty. They brought the Bible with them. Those who founded the Protestant United States based their Constitution on two great principles, civil and religious liberty.
This beast was the American buffalo whose two horns signified the independence of church and state powers and the absence of an establishment or state religion. America did not rise to power by overthrowing another empire, but by quietly matured espousing friendship with all nations but alliances with none. However once she was established she fixed her destiny by speaking like the beast she sought to escape.
"And the united States exercises all the power of the first beast in his presence, and causes the earth and those who dwell in it to worship the first beast, whose fatal wound was healed [when Constantine began transforming Imperial Rome to Papal Rome]." So don't you see, Roman denomination, a marked Protestant denomination, an image unto the beast, making a power that'll force all Protestants like a union . . . persons like ourselves, we're going to be cut out of all that altogether. That's exactly, because they won't be able to do it. It's tightening; and then when that time comes, and the press comes to a place to where you're pressed out, then watch (what I am fixing to tell you in a few minutes) watch the third pull then. It'll be absolutely to the total lost, but it will be for the Bride and the church" (Look Away to Jesus, p. 5:37-49).
"Let me say this, if you count me a fanatic from this night on. That very same thing that I'm speaking of will be done. There'll be a power put into the Church, and now is coming in, that the Holy Spirit will so anoint the people, till they'll speak the Word and it'll create itself right there. We haven't seen powers like's coming into the Church now. I know it for a fact."
"Say unto this mountain be moved. Don't doubt in your heart, but believe that what you've said shall come to pass, you can have what you have said." The placing of the Church in position, where the fullness of the power of the Holy Ghost comes into the Church. Then critics' mouths will be shut. It'll be a short time. Jesus come right off the mountain, went straight to Calvary. Notice, it won't last long, but it'll be here" (Hear Ye Him, #60-0313).
"And he does great wonders, so that he makes fire come down from heaven on the earth in the sight of men [the nuclear bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki], and deceives them that dwell on the earth by means of those miracles which he had power to do in the sight of the beast; saying to them that dwell on the earth, that they should make a [Protestant] image to the beast, which had the wound by a sword, and did live. [The beast spreads his influence through the image built for him�a worldwide ecumenical council]. And [as Papal Rome] he had power to give life to the image of the beast [ecumenical council of Churches in federation with Rome], that the image of the beast should both speak, and cause that as many as would not worship the image of the beast should be killed. And he causes all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand [indicating servitude], or in their foreheads [accepting trinitarianism which all religions observe knowingly or in ignorance]: and that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name [VICARIVS FILII DEI which means substitute for Christ or in place of the Holy Spirit]. Here is wisdom. Let he who has understanding count the number of the beast [5 + 1 + 100 + 1 + 5 + 1 + 50 + 1 + 1 + 500 + 1 = 666] for it is the number of a man [the Pope]; and his number is Six hundred threescore and six". nl1000.htm
