The 7 Earthly Angels spoke on earth

The Word Bride Body on earth utters 7 Thunders (Voices) with the Word opened. . . .

was given to me between 10:30 AM and 11:00 AM The 7 Thunders are the 7 Voices of the 7 Church Ages

which are 7 Manifestations of the Holy Spirit into the church as

Faith Lived Voice

Virtue " " Knowledge " " Temperance " " Patience " " Godliness " " Brotherly Kindness " "

7 Voices to build the Perfect Church to be capped off with the Capstone. He builds His individuals the same way.

These Voices shook the kingdom of the devil in each age.

It’s the Lived Voice that is the Thunder that shakes the devil’s kingdom.

Bride:

Each age Bride lived the Word Voice Virtue for her age. Mal 4 restored back to the church 7 Voices for the Bride to live

and manifest Brotherly Kindness as her Virtue of her age.

Therefore when Charity falls the Bride will manifest not one Virtue but she will actually manifest 7 Voices as Thunder to shake the devil’s kingdom

7 last Mysteries Thunders Voice Of God to restore back The Faith to the remnant.

The Word that was in the early church as one Voice Of God is spaced out over 7 Church Ages as 7 Manifestations of the same Holy Spirit that was in the early church.

The 7th Angel brings back these 7 Manifestations with a message to the last day Bride.

She receives the Word Message as the 7 Part Voice Of God. It wakes her up

Revival for her

The 7 Voices thundered out in the Bride

7 Steps added back because she's one with the Original Voice, Then the 7 Voices go forth as One Voice Of The Resurrection.

Each (Word Virtue) lived as the Voice Of God for it's day and age The Bride Tree fully restored shall live again with all

7 Manifestations of the Holy Spirit in her, with signs - wonders - miracles.

The Word (7 Parts) is now born into manifestation in your midst, allowing the Spirit to confirm that you are preaching the Word.

Heb 2:4 God also bearing them witness, both with signs and wonders, and with divers miracles, and gifts of the Holy Ghost, according to his own will?

Heb 13:8 Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

Good morning Church, Pennsylvania and New York. I’d like to invite your attention to Hebrews, chapter 6. It reads on this wise:

THEREFORE leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on unto perfection; not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead works, and of faith toward God. Of the doctrine of baptisms, and of laying on of hands, and of resurrection of the dead, and of eternal judgment. And this will we do, if God permit.

May the Lord add a blessing to the reading of His Word. Let’s bow our heads in a word of prayer.

Father, we feel the Fire of God in the assembly today. We feel Lord You’re fixing to do something in here. You pour out Your Holy Spirit upon the people. And now Lord, may You bless the reading of the Word, and the hearing of It to the people’s hearts.

May You touch my body to say these few words Lord to minis-ter to the people and we’ll be careful to give You all of the praise, honor and glory for we ask it in Jesus’ Name and for His sake. Amen and amen. You may be seated.

Norman, for the tape, “Let Us Go On To Perfection.” And my subject today is, “Setting the Church in order.”

So now I want to say that every office is in its position and we feel that we’re ready to go forward unto the Third Phase. And I just wanted to read some reports from overseas that I wanted to read to you so that you know what they’re doing and what effect the Ministry has on them.

Dear Brother Coleman, greetings in the Name of the Lord. Just a short notice to let you know what the Lord has been doing in our church. Though the devil has been fighting harder than ever in many situations, the church has grown up and matured under the preaching that came through the audio tapes.

We just went through the Canadian series of tapes from 1976, “Seven Lived Voices,” “Anointed And Commissioned,” and Sunday we finished with, “Dominion.”

In every single service there was such an anointing that came off the tape that you could hardly control. Sunday we played the tape, “Dominion.” At the end as we were trying to close out the service

there was no way we could do it because of the Presence of the Holy Spirit.

There’s such an anointing that comes out of these messages that is changing the people’s attitudes and bringing the whole church into a state of maturity because they all have to take notice that it is not a man speaking but really the Voice of the Archangel that has been thundering in our church.

The amazing thing is that we do not have to explain that to the people but the people are giving witness and are receiving the blessing of it.

This is really the Lord’s doing. He has predestinated this mes-sage for this time and season. The Bride is receiving it. The young people are receiving it. Another holy time is here. Brother Coleman, you’re always in our prayers. Expecting to see God moving on the scene on your behalf in this season. God bless you. Antonio Marra. From Italy.

And here’s one I wanted to read to you from Brother Maduka from Nigeria. Dear precious Brother Coleman, I bring you greetings in the Name of our Lord and Saviour Jesus Christ. I believe the amaz-ing grace of God has been with you and our precious Sister Coleman and the entire Forest Hills New York Church.

Please permit me to bother you a little bit just to thank you immensely for your obedience to the Holy Spirit. We have recently been playing various audio tapes of your messages in the early ‘70’s. And it is actually amazing to see the quality of the anointing that flows from these messages.

The way they all come out leaves me with an experience like I have never heard anything like that in all of my life. Two Sundays ago specifically, February 29th 2004, when Brother Olu by inspiration played the message, “Forgiveness,” which was preached June 21st ’74. The Holy Spirit poured out in a special way. Everyone in the service was touched and brethren were hugging each other and asking for forgiveness. I on my side cried out my heart to God like I never did before in the past.

I left that service without any doubt in my heart that Jesus was there present and kissed my heart again. Brother Coleman, I will not

like to take much of your time but I wish to encourage you that all of the sacrifices you have made over the years in service of the Lord has not been in vain.

I know for real that there is a Bride around the world that is today feeding on the hidden manna underneath the Seventh Seal and I am glad that a portion of that Bride is in Lagos Nigeria.

Your Ministry has affected so many of us in a very positive manner. We have received very deep qualitative teachings that have probed our love for God. And I can truly say personally that my life will never be the same again.

So thank you very much for giving to the Lord. My sincere prayers is that the Lord will grant you a fulfillment of the prayers of His Servant and our Prophet Brother Branham over you and so replen-ish to you all the strength and energy you have given to the preaching of these precious messages to the Bride of Jesus Christ.

One time the Prophet said that the people see these gifts and desire them without knowing what it takes. I know that the sacrifices that you have made for the Bride of Jesus Christ has taken a heavy toll on your health but God wants to give His children a reason to groan in prayers.

And we trust that He will completely heal you and crown your Ministry. Once again may God richly bless you our precious Brother Coleman. Brother Cosmos Maduka.

And also here’s from Brother Moses, the deacon there. Dear Brother Coleman, I trust and believe by God’s grace this letter meets you in the best of health. May you be encouraged that on this side of the world, there are a group of believers who value what you stand for and share with you the feeling of what you go through daily.

Like St. Paul, the Apostle said that in me first Jesus Christ might show forth a long suffering for a pattern to them which should hereafter believe on Him to everlasting life.

Brother Coleman, I must say from the depths of my heart that the impact of your 1974 tapes so far played have been tremendous, rich in content of spiritual values for training and spiritual aspiration for me in particular and for our church as a whole.

back any more. But to write to thank you and to express to you how much the effect of your labor of love all these years has had on us.

We have enjoyed every rebuke, every correction and the love and encouragement you have showered on us. It is a shame that the so-called ministers and believers in Brother Branham’s Message, who have come so close to you, miss it all because they pin this great Rev-elation on man and fail to see that this Messenger, it is the Angel from Heaven and not man. Amen.

But the separation and the forsaking time must always come to those who always stay true to the inspiration to vindicate that it is the truth. And he has a little poem down here.

Thank you for the three messages you sent to our pastor to be played in our church, “And On Some Have Compassion,” June 9th, “Forgiveness,” June 21st, and, “In The Time Of The Seventh Seal Harvest,” Jonathan Coleman.

With the key portion of your message on August 25th 2001, “The Unsealing Of The Seven Seals Of Redemption.” These mes-sages open up the season to us. Did you catch that friend?

These three... I’ve been trying to tell you that, “Brotherly Kind-ness,” “And On Some Have Compassion,” opens the season. And the Lord was so good to us that in 1974 down in Georgia, “And On Some Have Compassion.”

But the real message, He hid it away for now and now it’s opening the season now, the Third Pull. So don’t miss these things like that because it starts with, “And On Some Have Compassion,” and “Forgiveness,” and, “Brotherly Kindness.”

And these messages open up the season to us, showed us an example how you have lived your life before God and commended your life to every man’s conscience in the sight of God. It has enriched our lives and helped us to understand the secret of how you have con-ducted your life the way you do. Moses Thompson. So praise God.

And now also here’s a dream. I had a dream here. Oh here it is. Here’s a dream. Here’s a dream from a Brother Glador from North-ern Nigeria.

He sent it to me about three years ago. I had it on one of the messages and I was looking for it. I asked Brother Bellomo, he’s in

contact with him, to ask him to send the dream back because I wanted to bring it out now.

And there’s a second part to it and he never gave me the sec-ond part. So here’s the dream that he had given to me about three years ago.

Dear Sir. Thanks. Here is the dream. One night I had a dream. I dreamed I saw the Prophet. It was in a very big gathering of people. They were all Message believers. The Prophet was sitting in on the platform with some ministers around him. I only recognized Ewall Frank from Germany and Junior Jackson from America.

I then walked out from among the congregation toward the place that the Prophet was sitting. I then requested to answer my tion. The permission was granted by him. I then asked him this ques-tion:

I said, “Brother, you brought to us a precious Message and you lived such a life to make sure that this Message remained pure and holy. Now Brother Branham, seeing the way that the ministers are treating the Message, and the kind of doctrines that has been propa-gated by them. Brother Branham, what can you do? What can you say about this?”

Brother Branham stood up from his seat and then pointed to the back of the congregation. Then asked me, “Do you know that man sitting at the back of these people?”

I said, “I guess I do know him.” I said, “That is Brother Joseph Coleman, the Pastor of the New York Church.” He then told me, “Then hold on to what he’s preaching. He’ll take you to the Rapture.” Yes sir. So, amen.

So I’ll read this to you. It’s a dream. You may be seated. To tell you as of today, “Let’s Go On To Perfection.” Because that is my goal, to Ephesians 4:11 through 13, to bring you to a perfect man, to be ready for the Rapture.

He told me hold on to what he’s preaching; he’ll take you to the Rapture. I will get you the part two of this dream. I’m in an internet cafT and my time is running out. Please bear with me.

There’s one thing I would like you to know. That is Brother Coleman was not among the bunch of ministers that was around the

Prophet. To me, that is the greatest respect that he showed to his Prophet. It don’t matter where he’s at, God knows it, where he’s at. And it was to him only that the Prophet pointed me to. This has really increased my respect for Brother Coleman.

Any man that will come against Brother Coleman, ah, I will come against that man. His friends are my friends. Shalom. Brother Glador. Well I’ve got a friend over in Nigeria. So okay.

And also a Brother Chima, he E-mailed this to Brother Robledo, I mean to Brother Bellomo. It’s a dream. Let me see, how was it now? He visited Brother Olu’s church in March and also he was playing a video by Brother Jonathan Coleman, “In The Time Of The Seventh Seal Harvest,” and that message he read a dream a sister that had to do with Brother Coleman’s restoration and complete health. When we returned back to Benin, this Brother Caleb told me he had a dream in December 2003 on Brother Coleman.

It had escaped his memory all along but on hearing that dream read by Brother Jonathan, it came back to him. I’d like to share it. I was in a dream during December 2003. In this dream, I saw some believers from Charity The Headstone Tabernacle, Benin City, attend-ing a convention overseas.

The venue of the meeting was a beautiful auditorium set in the midst of a beautiful expansive space. The only place I know is like that is Penn Harris.

As we believers arrived, the service was already underway and the Anointing was all over the place so I broke out from our brethren and started running in to see what was going on inside the auditorium. As I got closer, the Anointing was so powerful, so strong, I had never ever seen in any meeting. The hall was filled up to capacity. Even to the entrance and I was like scrambling to get an open space to see what was taking place inside.

I got a space and then saw Brother Coleman in the pulpit. Brother Coleman then ripped off something like a leg support for his right leg and his legs were strong and okay, completely healed. The Shout of the King was in the Camp.

I have been a believer in the Seven Thunders Inspiration of Malachi 4 for 12 years and have witnessed God coming down to bless

His people but I have not yet seen such a Presence that was in that auditorium in my dream. God bless you. Brother Caleb. Well praise God.

That’s a real blessing to me because my right leg is the one I had the operation on, the knee. And I always wondered if it would just be crippled or whether that would ever be healed. And here he saw me pull something off and my right leg was healed. Okay.

I read these here because today you’re gonna find out on this tape what I’m all about because it’s finished now. We’re on the Third Phase. It’s here. So all that has been done way back, 1961, ’62, well now today you’re gonna find out what I’ve been doing.

Today you’re gonna find out, you’re gonna understand me. And then if you understand me and know who you are, then we’re gonna go on together to Perfection. Amen. Okay.

I guess as you all know, I think right during now and the early part of April is a five-planet conjunction. So most of you know about it, I suppose. Mercury, Mars, Venus, Jupiter and Saturn.

And February 1962, the same five planets, they came into a conjunction. And I want to read something on the dawning of the Age of Aquarius. Brother Bellomo gave it to me off of the internet.

This is reprinted and updated from 1998 printed version. Wel-come to Planet Earth Magazine. We welWel-come your feedback, ideas, opinions. Near the end of 1961, some astrologists in India began pre-dicting the end of the world. Why?

They pointed to a rare conjunction of seven solar systemic bod-ies in Aquarius that would occur between February 3 through 5, ’62 in the sign of Aquarius.

At that time, utilizing the western tropical zodiac, there would be a total solar eclipse in mid Aquarius, a power point in the zodiac plus the five traditional astrological planets, Mercury, Venus, Mars, Jupiter and Saturn would also be in Aquarius and clustered around the total solar eclipse.

And so it goes on to explain, let me see, in 1962. So some of you may remember that because the Indians were predicting the end of the world but Brother Branham said on, “The End Time Seed Sign,” in May of ’62, he said that the five planets coming together the other day.

He said, “What is it?” He said, “It is announcing the birth of the infant Bride.”

So 41 years, 42 years later, what is it? What do you think it is, huh? Could it be the harvest? So, isn’t it strange how the Holy Spirit is doing all this here January, February and March, getting us ready for an Easter Revival? And I haven’t called for an Easter Revival since 1981.

But I have the men now to preach. I don’t have to bring any imports in. And so we can have our own thing. Amen. “So now what are you looking for Brother Coleman?”

Well from April through June I’m looking for a Barley Harvest because I sowed a Barley Seed. Jesus fed them with five loaves of barley and two fishes.

So He fed them with five Messengers, Paul, Irenaeus and Mar-tin, Columba and Malachi 4, Barley. And then He had two little fishes, Luther and Wesley went fishing.

So they had the fish. So anyway, June, July, I’m looking for a Wheat Harvest in Penn Harris. So the Barley Harvest will vindicate and prove that indeed this was a Barley Revelation, “And On Some Have Compassion,” “Seven Thunders,” and no man can break it and it’s of God and now God will vindicate it to be so.

So now and that will be Palm Sunday, A.M., and P.M., and there’ll be no communion. And I want to go through here and see everybody get straightened out, all of the things that has been done, and then we’ll have the first communion in May, May 2nd.

So it will be Palm Sunday morning and night, A.M., and P.M., Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday morning sunrise, and Sunday, a regular service.

So you be getting yourself ready and straighten out for it, be praying for it. Amen? Okay now. Wednesday night’s tape, “Where Was Thou When I Laid The Foundation Of The Earth?”

Now this tape, I’ve pulled it out of the order that I have the tapes in because I wanted to nail down who you are and where you come from. And this was a Thanksgiving Message that I had spoke on.

most of you will not be in service Wednesday. So when you get the book next week I want to key you in to some things in the book there. Now coming off of, “Ephesians Church Age,” 1960, in the, “Revelation,” series, page 139, paragraph 39. As Daniel heard the Seven Thunders and forbidden and John heard the voices and this Book was sealed and the back of the Book was sealed with Seven Seals.

But in the days of these Seals to be opened, the Mystery of God would be finished. And now you can see where we’re at right now, right? The Mystery of God at the finishing of the Seventh Seal. That’s where we are right now.

In other words, God would be known to His Church, not in three people, but as One Person. The Mystery of God would be re-vealed. And when that was completely revealed, then the Seven Mys-teries would open to the Church because in there the Church would be living under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

Now watch, Him moving in and out and showing His signs of being alive and among us, living among us. And we are then worship-ping the Living Christ that’s among us.

Now how many understand this? This is telling you that since 1974, Him, the Living Christ, Jesus, the Seven Thunders, has been in this Church! Him, moving in and out. Now can you begin, you may be seated, can you begin to understand why the Spirit cries out in me, “Worship. Come in before ten o’clock,” over and over and over.

It’s not me. It’s Him. He wants to bless you. But how can He bless you if you don’t worship Him? And you worship Him. So Wednesday’s message is a tribute to the names being in the Book. And when you see your name in the Lamb’s Book, then there’s only one thing to do is to worship Him.

So I can tell by your worship, or your lack of worship, who sees their names in the Book. Because if your name was in the Book, you will always worship. And if you see your name in there.

So I see people sitting around, I don’t know whether they have seen their name or not. Anyway, this is for Wednesday’s message, “Where Wast Thou?” I want to key you into page 3, 4 and 5. Yeah that’s right, page 3, I just read the quote and here I quoted it again on page 3, speaking about the Seven Voices.

But there’s something here I want to say here. And the Book was sealed and the back of the Book was sealed with Seven Seals. So therefore, now watch, listen very careful.

You cannot see the back of the Book because you don’t see those Seals, now watch. So the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ, took the Seven Seals from the backside and put symbols on it on the inside. It’s the same Seven Seals. Ah ha! Are you getting it?

He took the Seven Seals from the back of the Book and put them inside the Book because if He didn’t do that, there wouldn’t be no Seven Seals.

You would say, “What Seven Seals?” On the back of the Book. So Revelation 5 tells you that it’s on the backside. So then right away in verse, chapter 6, verse 1, and when He opened the First Seal, so then He put it on the inside in symbol form. Amen? Okay.

So the Holy Spirit, Jesus Christ, took the Seven Seals from the back and put symbols on it on the inside so you would know that there is some Seven Seals somewhere.

So He put it on the inside, Seven Seals, which is Seven written Seals. But on the back it’s Seven Voices that explain those written Seals. Amen. But in the days of these Seals to be opened - here we are - the Mystery of God would be finished.

In other words, God would be known to His Church, not in three people, but One Person, the Mystery of God would be revealed. And when that was completely revealed, and the Six Seals completely revealed it when it was done in March ’63, when that time come, when the Mystery of God was, no, not in three gods but One God, when that was finished, then under the Seventh Seal was Seven Voices.

Then it would be time for them Seven Voices to come back to the Church as that One God, which is Christ! Let me explain it to you further.

The Seven Voices down through the Seven Church Ages, hook-ing into Malachi 4, that was the supernatural Son of God. But he told you that He changed from when you getting in a setting like Sodom and also Noah’s time, it would change over and the Son of God would Enmorphe into Son of Man.

and be veiled in the Prophet. There you are Church. You got it? You may be seated. I’m trying to get you to understand all this here be-cause we’re gonna have a Revival.

So therefore, the Seven Thunders was stuck on the backside, the Seven Voices, the Seven Mysteries. And it took the Seven back-side Seals, and put it on the inback-side and gave each one a symbol. And they all had a symbol: a white horse rider, a red horse rider or what-ever, souls under the altar and so forth. And an earthquake opened up the Sixth Seal.

But there was nothing under the Seventh. That’s because Brother Branham himself had the symbol, the tent. Do you under-stand now? He had the symbol. And therefore Brother Branham had to take the Thunders from the backside, from Revelation 10, and slide it under Revelation 8:1, making Seven Seals.

But the Seven backside Voices, which are Seals and Mysteries, that was put under the Seventh Seal. And the Seventh Seal is Jesus Christ and He thunders out Seven Thunders, Seven Voices. And that’s those same Thunders was revealed to this church. Do you now under-stand why I say you have got to praise God? You have got to worship God? Okay. I don’t want to take up too much time. All right.

Page 4. I’ll pick it up here somewhere, page 4, you may be seated. Now this is the Spoken Word, the Fire... and I’m saying what I’m saying to you now, there was nothing in ’81, they didn’t know what I was even talking about. And as I spoke it to them, I said in there would open to the church because in there the church would be living under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, Him saying in ’74, “Seven Voices, Seven Thunders, Seven Church Ages,” Him saying, “I Jesus,” and Him saying all these things.

They think it’s me, it’s Him. It’s not me. He’s moving in New York, Him, and Him is the Seven Thunders. Then I stop, I say, whew, it was nothing in ’81. They were looking at me. Now this is spoken here, the Fire would have fallen in South Africa and they’d a gone home already. Okay. Him moving in and out showing His signs of being alive and among us, living among us and we are then, when? When the Thunders is moving through here, we are then worshipping the living Christ that’s among us.

And the Thunders has been moving among us for 30 years. Are you worshipping Him? Him? Okay. Not Joe Coleman, the living Christ. This has been killing me for 30 years. They think it’s me. Some man with a revelation. But no, it’s Him, right here among us. This Anointing that you feel is Him. That’s why you’ve got to praise Him. Praise God.

Now when this comes to pass, now watch, then the church will be ready for the Spirit, soul, and Spirit to take the Seven Thunder baby. You have a Seven Thunder baby in you. And you’re now coming to the Third Phase for the Spirit to come down and take that baby. Now watch.

And they won’t be ready, here you are, until they know who they are and who He is and who the devil is. Wait a minute. And how the devil has religious spirits. Are you following me? This is what I told you, three things. It’s right here in the book here. Now watch. And here’s what you’ve got to do between here and a mile down the road to the Resurrection.

And when they get rid of those religious spirits by repenting of them and so forth and then worship me. Because those religious spir-its is keeping you from worshipping Christ. So you get rid of them, get them off of you, that was kicked out of Heaven. Then you will worship God.

Well, praise the Lord. I think you’re finally getting a revela-tion. Get rid of those spirits and then you’ll see genuine praise of God. And also on page 5, you may be seated. The last thing that happened before the Holy Spirit fell, in St. Luke 24:49. And they were con-stantly... they were continually in the temple praising and blessing God. Now you see what I’m trying to tell you. You have got to praise Him continually, regardless of how you feel. How do you think I feel this morning? I’m half dead. You can’t go by your feelings. Okay. They were, you may be seated. They were continually in the temple praising and blessing God.

There we are. “What do you call that Brother Coleman?” I call that absolute faith because He opened the Scriptures to them. And that’s being done to you this morning. St. Luke 24:45, He unlocked their minds to understand the Scriptures. Elohim. They knew Elohim

right there. They knew that He was the Father, He was the Logos. They knowed that He was made flesh. They couldn’t help but worship Him.

Now what are you finding out in these three tapes? Who He is, Elohim, Logos. It’s the same thing church. The Spirit is fixing to fall. But as they had... I mean didn’t Thomas say, “My Lord, Jehovah, and my God, Elohim?” Thomas with unbelief had a revelation of God Elohim. Well you’ve got to get the same thing. You may be seated.

So just before the Spirit fell, they had a revelation of Elohim. I wonder where we’re at today? This revelation should make you get up and walk and praise God. Well this is Wednesday’s tape. So three things now: who God is, who you are, and who the devil is, and where his religious spirits are. Amen.

And also get rid of those religious spirits. Oh yeah, something else here, that’ll be a blessing to you. In 1981, I think it was Novem-ber, I guess, the Holy Spirit spoke to Brother George Todd. And Brother George, he was... I used to see him there in 1963 in, “The Seven Seals,” he was in the room with his tape recorder.

But what he was doing, he would run, “The First Seal,” into, “The Second,” and “The Second,” into, “The Third,” “The Third,” into, “The Fourth,” so he wouldn’t miss nothing. And believe me George didn’t miss anything. So a situation happened and the Lord reminded George and, “The Third Seal,” page 262 and he heard it.

And a portion was left off of the tape. And you can even hear the “click, click,” when they clicked it off. And here’s what it is. This is on page 12. And the living creature, the beast, this is on page 262, “The Third Seal,” the living creature like a man said to John, “Come see what it is.” Then he skips down to, and so he opens it up. A thunder blasts and the Lamb opens the Seals.

But here’s what was left in between that George picked up on on his tape recorder. Come see what it is. Here’s what’s left off. This mystery that’s been hid. And Brother Branham took it off. This mys-tery that’s been hid all down through the years of redemption since the foundation of the world, it’s been hid under this Seal, what’s going to happen, which is a Seven Thunder Revival. It’s not on the tape. Okay. Page 13.

On, “The Third Seal,” there’s gonna be a Seven Thunder Re-vival, page 253. This mystery, I’m picking up what he left off. This mystery that’s been hid because Paul preached the seed, Irenaeus preached the seed, Martin preached the seed, Columba preached the seed, and it went in the ground, but then it was hid, the loose ends.

And Brother Branham only said it on, “The Third Seal,” which was Luther and Wesley. Are you understanding this here? Okay. But Luther, Wesley, Pentecostals, left off of the seed. This mystery will be restored by Malachi 4 but it’s been hid since the foundation of the world. And I’ll save it for New York City in November, Thanksgiving Day. Did you hear what I said?

They, when they leave out of here, they’re gonna praise me and thank me. I’m doing all these things for them that they don’t miss it. Well I sure hope so. So today’s message, “In Blessing I Will Bless Thee.” And on page 3, oh yes I said, church set in order and here on page 3, you’re gonna find out all about me and why I am the way I am today. Here on page 3, you can pick it up there if you want.

I’m in my place this morning. Everybody’s in their place, the church set in order. This is the first time in New York City that I was recognized as the Pastor. I know where I’m at now. Praise God. I can defy every devil in here. None shall stand before this Office. I’ve fought a good fight, I’ve finished my course. I’m here now to bring you to Perfection, to shake you, to rock you back to the Bible, back to the Word. Somebody’s gonna get it. You’re predestinated unto Adop-tion of children by Jesus Christ; not your mother, not your father, not some bishop.

God before the foundation of the world predestinated you unto the Adoption of children to take that glorious stand. Don’t you know what I’m saying? We’re marching this morning. The Pillar of Fire says, “Move out.” We’re on the march. The earth is shaking under the impact of New York City. The demons are trembling. The Word is being spoke Word by Word, back to the Bible, back to the life, to rock you and shake you. I hope you understand this.

That’s what I’m gonna do. So today you’re gonna find out why I’m doing it. So from hereon when I begin to do it, don’t question it because you’ll find out today why I’m doing it. Okay? I just say that

so you’ll understand that, you see? Okay, the great hour of charge is here. And on page 12, 13 and 14, today you’re gonna find out what I’m all about.

And on page 12 there, it is the nature that takes the Word be-cause the soul is the Word. So your soul is the Theophany that’s over there waiting for you. And therefore that Theophany is crying out for seven vitamins: Faith, Virtue, Knowledge and Temperance and so forth. And that’s a Spirit.

So therefore the Holy Spirit must fall to anoint you to manifest Seven Spirits, which is the vitamins for your Theophany. I hope I didn’t go too deep on here. Amen. My, my, my. In the beginning was the soul. The church members don’t have that Theophany. They can-not take the Word. They’re exposed, they’re shuck and they blow up. So I’ll let you hear the rest of it yourself. But did you get that? Three kind of believers is always here. Now please friends, when you come from your little country and your little island, wherever, in the West Indies, South America, I don’t care where, Africa, don’t matter. Don’t come here with your ideas, the way a church should be.

That’s the way it was there. But not here. It’s different here. Because there, you have some... several families or whatever, you know everybody in there. But you don’t know everybody in here. This is the battlefield. This is the place where God dropped the Thunders to chal-lenge the devil.

So don’t try to compare what goes on in here, how I speak and what I speak and how I say it. Don’t do that. Don’t do that. Because this is a gift here to do this to bring about a special effect to hone a Bride unto Perfection. So don’t bring your small town ideas here from Oshkosh Wisconsin somewhere. Amen. So don’t judge nothing here. Just judge the results of it. Okay? All right. If you do that you’ll be all right.

So church members cannot take the Word. And you’re gonna see them blow up in here. There’s three kind of believers in here. Always is in here, three kind of believers. And the unbelievers, they’ll come in and as soon as you mention about high heeled shoes and hair down their neck, they’re gone. They can’t take nothing. Halleluiah. Hear what I said?

And by the way young sisters and sisters, watch those spiked heels. I see them kind of floating back in the church again. Don’t forget, “Rising Of The Sun.” That woman got up, a Pentecostal woman got up there and with a big heels like that, spiked heels, and swore she could walk that narrow white line, in the dream. And she could not walk. She fell off into hell. So watch what you’re doing. You’re on display for an Apostolic Church, not with spiked heels and slits. That’s not Apostolic. That’s church members. So you watch it for Easter and all times and especially for Harrisburg. Because you’re going on dis-play in Harrisburg.

So you mothers, watch what your daughters are buying in the mall. Go with them. Check those heels out. All right. “Brother Coleman, isn’t that legalism?” No. That’s holy-ism. Holy, holy, holy unto the Lord. Okay. So the church members cannot take it. You’ll understand me and my Office and what... and my God, and what my God is.

So now on page 13, 12, 13, it’s labor pains there. So I won’t read it. You’ll hear it. I’m gonna put this tape on here. And, so but now, this message, my inspiration for all these years, here’s where it’s coming from. “Adoption, Part One,” page 8. So Ephesus here sets us like Joshua positionally. You notice Joshua after crossing over the land, taking the land and he divided the land, Ephraim here and Manasseh here, this one over here, Gad, Benjamin there. He divided the land.

And Joshua not knowing this but by inspiration led of the Holy Spirit after being into the promised land give each man his promise and exactly what the Holy Spirit promised through the birth back there. Now how that God has set in the church through labor pains. Oh they get tremendous sometime.

Now remember this now, it’s on the tape this morning page 12, 13 and 14. Then you’ll all understand me. When a church is groaning under the persecution of the outside world, believe on the Lord Jesus, that the promise of the Holy Ghost is just as real to us as it was to Pentecost. How they - here it is - labor pain.

How they groan and cry in their labor pains. How Brother Coleman had a revelation of Perfection, how he groaned, cried,

travailed, ’64, five, six, seven, ‘70’s, ‘80’s, groaning, travailing. You didn’t understand him because God was using the body to groan: cry-ing in labor pains. But when they’re born and positionally born into the Kingdom of God, born, birth, Faith, positionally born, Charity, sealing you up for Adoption - you got it? - into the Kingdom of God.

Then the Holy Ghost has set in the church some apostles, proph-ets, teachers, pastors, some evangelists. Then He’s given into there speaking with tongues, interpretation, knowledge, wisdom, gifts of healing, all kinds of miracles.

And so therefore healing, and also Brother Branham said in, “Why I’m Against Organized Religion,” he said what is the greater gift other than healing? He said wisdom, wisdom of revelation to put the Word of God together to show the church where they’re at. Then comes the hard cases, praying for the sick. When you find out where you are, then we pray for the sick.

So I’m finished here. Right. Okay. On page 89, I want to say some things down through there, page 89, Scriptures, okay, placing, Canaan did not represent, it represented, okay, yeah. It did not... it did represent this, Canaan I’m talking about. That it must be a perfect walk. And there’s where the church is failing today. This is page 9, “Adoption.” On that walk.

Do you know that even your own behavior can knock some-body else out of getting healed? Your misbehavior of unconfessed sins of you believers can cause this church to bitterly fail. And at the Day of Judgment you’ll be responsible for every bit of it. You say now wait a minute Brother Branham. That’s the truth, think of it. Then he speaks about Joshua crossing over.

And just think to fight an entire campaign and he had a prom-ise without losing a man, without even getting a scratch, without even having to have a nurse or first aid or a band aid. The land is yours, go fight. Think of fighting a campaign and there’s no Red Cross around at all, there’s nobody gonna get hurt; and he speaks about the Amorites and so forth. And stop some, okay.

So therefore Akin took the Babylonian garment and there was sin in the camp. And they had to call a fast because there was 16 dead. And why did they die, innocent men? Because one man stepped out of

line. You see the reason this needs to be taught? The church is lining up, lining up with the Word of God, lining up with God and lining up with each other, walking perfectly upright, soberly before all men, fear-ing God.

Because one man stole a garment and done something he should not have done, took the life of 16 men. I think it was 16, maybe more. And Joshua said, “There’s something wrong. God made a promise, something’s wrong.” When we bring the sick up before us and they fail to be healed, we need to call a solemn fast, call an assembly, something’s wrong somewhere. God made the promise, God’s got to stick to that promise and God is guilty if God said the signs and won-ders would follow us.

Then Brother Branham said that God is guilty of that promise unless He does it. If He don’t do it, He’s guilty. But now we have to live a life to make sure that He’s not guilty. That’s right. If we live a life and no unconfessed sin, then God will pour out the blessings of God. So he called a fast and he found out and they cast lots and so forth and they took Akin of course.

So there we are church. So therefore, anyway, well it’s on the tape there. So anyway you’ll find out that over there, your Theophany, now understand me. Where were you when the morning stars sang together and the... and all, all of the sons of God shouted for joy? All of the sons of God? That’s been in the world. All. Well one third of them went after Lucifer and they were religious and of course they were kicked out. And we’ll get into it even more heavily on May 2nd and May 9th on, “War In Heaven,” and, “Angels Of The Covenant.”

And you will thoroughly understand it. But now He opened up enough for you to repent of these religious spirits. So therefore there’s only two spirits: Lucifer and Michael. Lucifer is religious. So you understand that? They come in here. Therefore church members with these spirits will come in here. They don’t have no revelation of hav-ing a Theophany over there. They haven’t because they don’t have one there. They’re just religious. And they’re in every revival.

So they will come in here and gossip, backbite, evil, speak against the Pastor, don’t like this, don’t like that, throw off things: sulfuric acid. They will try to tear up the church because they don’t

have the first revelation of what you’re even trying to achieve. Are you following me now? I hope you are.

So therefore that’s been my battle for over 40 years against church members, without the Holy Spirit, without even having the seed in the soul. If you’ve got a seed in the soul, and you’re living a sanctified life, well you’ve got a Theophany over there because you’re proving it. So understand me now.

When you see these church members, “Poor Sister So.” No, no, “Poor Sister So and so is tearing up Jesus Christ’s Church.” Better look at it that way. So you mean to tell me that you’re gonna stop me and everybody that’s waiting for Malachi 4 down to Adam? And God chose New York City to come forward and come to Perfection and Sister So and so and Brother So and so’s gonna come in here with their mess? NO! I’m gonna take them out of here!

So please, please understand me, I’m not mean. But this is what I’m commissioned to do. I’m anointed to do this and I’m going to do it. Okay. As long as you understand me, everything will be fine. Amen. Okay. So now, let’s go on to Perfection friends.

And Brother Branham said here, just, did I read it to you? He said that, he said that, maybe it was in here. Yeah, here it is. Page 19, the promise. And God having predestinated His Church and all the peoples: there will be millions times millions that will walk very reli-gious. I’m telling you now. It may be strange to you but it’s not. Very religion... be deceived. The only ones that will not be deceived will be those that have come over into the Promise Land, who before the foun-dation of the world had their names put on the Lamb’s Book of Life and come over into the Promise Land and enjoying it.

Enjoying it? Sure. Worshipping, praising the Lord, enjoying it. Not a religious spirit sitting here mean and evil and don’t want to praise God. No. Enjoying it. Name’s on the Book. So I’m trying to get you to have some discernment to know what these spirits are.

So let us go on to perfection, you may be seated. Page 179, “Hebrews.” Therefore leaving the principle of the doctrine of Christ, let us go on to perfection. Now you Branham Tabernacle, oh I know we have healings, that’s wonderful. We have visions, that’s fine, spiri-tual dreams and sometimes they’re not spirispiri-tual dreams. We try to

help the poor, we do what we can do, oh that’s all right.

But that’s not what we’re talking about here now. We’re enter-ing into another phase. So therefore we will leave the principles and go on. We will come in before 10 A.M. to worship. We will raise our hands to worship. I won’t have to say these things no more. Leaving that, they should know that. Sing. They should know to sing. So we’re leaving that. So we’re going on to perfection. I hope you under-stand it.

Oh yes, we’ve got the doctrine of Christ. We believe He’s the Son of God, virgin born. We believe that with all these things that is just wonderful. But leaving that let’s go on to perfection. Oh my, I wish I had the voice of an Archangel now to bring this to a place where you could see it.

Well He’ll be here on the Third Phase and you will see it. So there we are friends and after you’re born again Brother Branham said you have to go on and add these Seven Virtues until you’re adopted. So there we are. So the Third Phase, Place in Christ, you’re being placed positionally into the Holy Ghost. And the Seven Thunders will reveal the hidden Mysteries, the opening of the Word, the Mysteries revealed, to know who God is, who you are, who Satan is.

Then when we know these three things, then we’re ready to be positionally placed into the Holy Ghost Land of Ephesians on the Third Phase. Brotherly Love, the Water. Holy Decency, Blood. Place in Christ, now, the Spirit.

Now remember 1983, the Spirit came for a birth. But now it’s coming for Adoption. Okay? So there we are church. So now we’re here today in 19... October 24th, I preached a message that we were, “Another Ephesians Is Here To Hone The Bride Into A Perfect Man,” September 24th 2000. And that’s the one where the Lord had told me that week, previous week, He said, “The Voice Angel is leaving Rev-elation 10:8 through 11.” Do you remember that? “And He’s moving into Ephesians 4:11 through 13.”

Well the time has come. What can I tell you? My, you would think you’d get more response than that. Whew. Friends, stop think-ing that you’ve got a fallen angel upon you, will you? That’s what you’re sitting there thinking. I feel it. “Do I have a fallen angel? What

do you think? I don’t know.” Whew, wow.

No! You’re predestinated. God help them. Do you see that? There you are. Sitting there thinking they’ve got a fallen angel. So praise God. Friends, look we want to pray for the sick. You may be seated. So we’re being positionally placed in the Holy Ghost on the Third Phase to receive the Baptism of the Holy Ghost. All sin is con-fessed, everybody in a perfect walk on the Third Phase toward a per-fect man. And then we shall start to pray for the sick.

Maybe we’ll start to pray for the sick today. The church is in order. Amen. Let’s move out into the Third Phase. “What are you looking for Brother Coleman?” I’m looking for a Seven Thunder Re-vival. God bless you.

Prayer for the sick

Well praise God. What can we say church? That is my testi-mony. Amen. That’s my life story in the Lord. When I was baptized with the Holy Ghost, keep playing softly, April 9th 1960, I divorced myself from the world, got rid of every bit of the world. Because I understood that I was from another world. I trust and pray that you understand that today. And then you can unite with me and the minis-try here because we’re going on to perfection.

So do you feel that you’re beginning to know who He is, who you are and who the devil is? So now you’re going to earnestly pray and soul travail to get rid of all the spirits of the devil. Can we say amen? Let me hear it, praise God. Let me hear your shouts. Let me hear your praises. Amen. Now, now, now, glory to God, God be praised. Thank You Lord.

Well friends, we’ve been positionally placed in Ephesians since 2000 actually, by faith. And now this weekend is coming into being. So I’m not waiting around, I’m moving out by faith. In my condition with my throat and everything, I can hardly even speak, it closes up on

me.

But the suffering I’ve seen with my wife and you heard the prophecy. I found the prophecy about a month ago, I was going through these tapes and I was totally blowed away. And then I forgot which tape it was. I was hearing so many tapes. And then the tape came up in the order that it is. And then there I saw it. So then not even know-ing that the Holy Spirit wanted it played on March 28th.

Not knowing this because back in January, I said March 28th, that’s it. We have to be in order, we have to move out. We can’t hang around no more. We’ve got to move friends, amen, glory, glory. Hey. Praise God, God be praised, God be praised. Amen.

So early this morning around 5 A.M. I got up and I’ve been all week, last week trying to think of how would I be healed, when would I be healed? And each time I got to Easter, no April 11th, and I’m supposed to dedicate up here and preach for Easter. And I said, “Lord, when am I gonna be healed?” I don’t know.

And so then at 5 o’clock this morning the Lord spoke to me. He says, “Today pray for your wife. So by faith I’m gonna pray for my wife today. Joanne, Becky, bring up your mother. Praise God. Amen. Glory to God, praise God. Blessed be the Name of the Lord.

Everybody in faith, with your heads bowed, your eyes closed. Praise God. Amen. Keep playing, “He Touched Me.” So Pennsylva-nia, they are uniting their prayers with our prayers here. Glory to God, God be praised. Glory to God, God be praised.

Almighty God, Father, how many years has this been, since 1973 Lord, when this eye went bad Lord God. Down through the years, oh praise God, God be praised. Travailing and believing it would be. And as the people found out, that wasn’t me Lord, that was You in me. Halleluiah, glory to, glory to God. Oh yes.

Lord God, the Holy Spirit is upon me now, upon my wife. Lord God, may You open that blind eye. Father, may You heal her of that Alzheimer’s disease. Glory to God. Praise God. Father, may her... may the cobwebs in her mind sweep back. May those frontal lobes, halleluiah, may they be healed, may the thinking faculties in her mind be totally, completely healed Father, glory to God, God be praised, halleluiah, halleluiah, glory. Glory to God. Father, may You heal her.

Oh praise God be praised.

Lord Jesus, may the Power of God be upon her now and may her mind be restored back to her. May the thinking faculties... glory, halleluiah, thank You Lord. And may that blind eye pop open. Praise God. Bless her Lord. Bless her, Father. She’s been a real soldier Lord. She never complained one time. Oh praise God, God be praised. So may You bless her today and totally completely heal her, halleluiah, of every other affliction - amen. Praise God. Praise God. Praise God. Amen - that’s in her body Lord. Open that blinded eye; heal her of the Alzheimer’s Lord, for the Glory of God. For we pray and ask it in Jesus’ Name. Amen. One more time Stephan, “He Touched Me.” Glory. Church say amen. Thank You Jesus. Glory. Amen.

(Singing: “He touched me”)

(Sister Coleman sings, “He Touched Me.”)

That’s her testimony. She’s the First Mother of Gospel. Well praise God, God be praised. Praise God.

Page 47 Here you are, seven church ages, seven steps, God build-ing His church is like one person into an individual-into Himself.

Feast Of The Trumpets Jeff., In. 64-0719M

Page 17 - 18 Go into the prophet’s chamber and watch them seven steps. Where did the guard meet the challenge to bring the comer into the presence of the king at the top of the steps? Was in the seventh step. There shows that we’ve got to come again with that same Spirit that was on John. He introduced the Messiah; he was greater than all the prophets; he introduced it.
