FROM THE FOUR WINDS (Part-1)
In 1960 and 1962, William Branham preached on the Seven Church Angel Messages, and the Seven Seals of Revelation. I do not follow those congregations that came after his passing. However, I esteem him a servant of God, a Prophet. Not because of his healing ministry, nor the raising of the dead, or his prophecies concerning this world that came to pass. But because in 1962, Christ used that brother to open six, of the Seven Seals of Revelation.
And further, I would not deem him a servant of God except those things declared, overlaid JESUS Gospel perfectly. And so, it is JESUS WORD that vindicates His Prophets. Not man. I have shared on the 7th Seal of Revelation, but would like to share on those things Christ opened in Branham. And not only embrace the Church Angel Messages and Seals declared, but lay beside them the witness in the Seven Trumpets and Plagues. So, I pray Jesus open in you His Word, and no man shut. Amen
The Seven Seals sit in the context of those things JESUS warned His Apostles would transpire in the last days, in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21. Each of these Gospel Chapters, is divided in their midst by a reference to the “Abomination of Desolation,” as seen by Daniel the Prophet.
The Church Angel Messages, and the first Six Seals, overlay JESUS Word in the first part of each Chapter. The Abomination Daniel saw, divides each chapter, and is the 7th Seal. The “Seven Trumpets, and Plagues,” overlay the last portion of each chapter. So, as the Messages and Seals are the season of sowing, so the Trumpets and Plagues, are the season of reaping.
The 7th Seal divides these seasons, and is; “the Time, the Times, and Dividing of Time,” and the opening of those things sealed in Daniels Testimony.
By the River Babylon, the Prophet Ezekiel declared;
And I looked and, behold, a whirlwind came out of the north, a great cloud and a fire infolding itself and a brightness was about it, and out of the midst thereof as the colour of amber, out of the midst of the fire…. came the likeness of four living creatures. And this was their appearance; they had the likeness of a man (Ezekiel 1:4-5)
As for the likeness of their faces, they four had the face of a man, and the face of a lion, on the right side: and the face of an ox and of an eagle on the left side. As for the likeness of the living creatures, their appearance was like burning coals of fire, and like the appearance of lamps: it went up and down among the living creatures; (Ezekiel 1:10:13
In the four beasts, the fire, and burnings coals, Ezekiel saw the LORD’S Salvation in the Four Gospels of “Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John,” that would be sown into the nations. Whereas, the beasts Daniel saw, on the other hand, saw JESUS Gospel corrupted. When from four winds that blew upon the sea,” a Lion was stood upon the earth as a Man, then a Bear, a Leopard, and lastly, a man-made forgery. I share on the “four beasts” separately in the Beasts of Daniel.
Further, not only are each of the Gospel Chapters divided into the seasons of sowing and reaping, but so are each of the “Seven Church Angel Messages, Seals, Trumpets, and Plagues.” These are the “Four Winds that blow upon the earth,” in the Book of Revelation. Each of these is also divided in their midst in their 4th part.
As an example. The first three of the Seven Seals sow false gospels and discord. In the 4th Seal, Death and Hell Follow, and this cuts off and divides. Whereas the last three Seals are the reaping of God’s vengeance and great tribulation.
In the sowing of seeds spoken of in Ephraim and Judah, we see the harvests of those multitudes and Tribes in Revelation. Further, the “four winds” Daniel saw, overlay the “four winds” in Revelation, and both declare a falling away from JESUS Faith, and His Commandments.
As I have taught in “Daniel’s Beasts,” the Abomination, Daniel saw replace Christs Sacrifice, are false church teachings. And, its Desolation, the reaping of their rebellion. So, the great tribulation Christians fear, begins in them. Ezekiel confirmed Daniel’s testimony when the LORD had him dig into the walls of the Holy Place. And entering in, did not find the Ark of the LORD’S Testimony, but rather a priesthood consumed by idolatry. Both Babylonian Prophets bear witness of the same abomination that not only existed in Israel then, but in the churches today.
Before I start on the Seals, the Gospel Chapters above record JESUS answer to three questions. He had been talking about the destruction of the temple at Jerusalem, when his disciples came to him. We read in Matthew 24;
And as he sat upon the Mount of Olives, the disciples came to him privately, saying; Tell us, when shall these things be? And, what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?
And so, Christ’s opening of the Church Angel Messages, and Seals in Branham’s portion, reveal the destruction of JESUS Gospel, in our religious assemblies. But as Christ first raised from the dead in a glorified body, so JESUS Gospel, the Tabernacle of His Testimony, shall be cleansed and restored in Heavens Zion.
So, the Seven Trumpets sound to bring down Babylon’s confusion in us, just as they brought down Jericho. And as Joshua after Jericho’s fall, sought to purge the land of seven nations, so JESUS Seven Plagues, cleanse men’s false teachings from our heart and mind. And putting those things under His feet, JESUS the Almighty God, restores New Jerusalem, the WORD of His Salvation, in us. As JESUS told the religious;
The kingdom of God comes not with observation:.. For behold, the kingdom of God is within you. (Luke 17-20:21)
So in 1962 people gathered in great numbers to hear Branham preach on the Seven Seals. As Branham was shown each Seal the LORD vindicated it in His WORD. And only when the LORD had overlaid the Seal in Scripture, would Branham preach it. As I share on each Seal, I will layout three Scriptural portions in each, and then briefly summarise that Seal.
The 1st Seal:
And I saw, and behold a white horse: and he that sat on him had a bow; and a crown was given unto him: and he went forth conquering, and to conquer. (Revelation 6:1-2)
The 1st Church Angel Message:
Nevertheless I have somewhat against you, because you have left your first love. (Revelation 2:1-7)
JESUS Gospel Witness:
Matthew 24:4-5 And Jesus answered and said to them, Take heed that no man deceive you. For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.
To depart JESUS faith
The 1st Seal, and Matthew 24, reveal the spirit of the anti-christ looking to conquer? But to conquer what? From the very first assembly in Jerusalem, the Apostle John identified this antichrist spirit dwelt in those who denied; Christ is both the Father and Son. And this antichrist spirit dwells in every trinitarian, binitarian, Jehovah’s Witness, and similar church teaching.
Further, the Church Angel’s Message; “we have left our first love,” reveals a departure from JESUS Faith. And so, this 1st Seal speaks of the antichrist teachings of men that depart from and conquer JESUS Faith in the Saints.
In the next sharing, I will layout the other Seals in this same order. I pray the LORD bless His WORD in your heart, and open to you its depth and height. In JESUS consecrated name I pray, Amen
FROM THE FOUR WINDS (Part-2)
In the sowing of the Genesis seeds, when God Almighty confirmed His Oath to Abraham, God had him divide three beasts and passed a ‘smoking furnace and burning lamp,’ through their midst. And told Abraham, those “multitudes” descended from the ‘Son of Promise,’ would go into bondage, and suffer great affliction. And spoke not only of Isaac’s seed, but of Christs. Ezekiel too saw this Oath as “burning coals of fire, and burning lamps,” that passed up and down in the midst of those living creatures.
And as Israel’s ‘Four Tribal Brigades,’ carried the Ark of the Covenant in their midst, from Sinai, to the Land Promised Abraham’s flesh. So Ezekiel saw Gods ‘Living Oath’ in the midst of ‘Four Gospel Beasts,’ bear JESUS Salvation to the seed of Abraham’s Faith in the nations.
To recap; the 1st Seal, the 1st Church Angel Message, and Matthew 24:4-5: bear witness of the antichrist spirit seeking to pervert JESUS Faith in us. Hence the rebuke to those who leave their first love. And JESUS warning, that many false-christs would come in his name. Which antichrists in the Apostles days, denied Christ is both the Father and Son.
If we have fallen here, then let us repent, that we may eat from the Tree of Life.
The 2nd SEAL:
And there went out a red horse: and power was given to him that sat thereon to take peace from the earth and that they should kill one another: and there was given to him a great sword. (Revelation
The 2nd Church Angel Message:
I know the blasphemy of them which say they are Jews, but are of the synagogue of Satan… Behold, the devil shall cast some of you into prison, that you may be tried; and you shall have tribulation ten days: (Revelation 2:8-11)
JESUS Gospel Witness
(Matthew 24:6) And you shall hear of wars and rumors of wars: see that you be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.
To judge one another
This Seals ‘great sword,’ is the LORD’S “Covenant of Peace,” and I come to it shortly. This Seal reveals men turning back to the Law, to judge, and condemn one another. The Church Angels’ reference to the ‘Jews of Satan’s Synagogue,’ are like those who having received Christ at Pentecost, later demanded Paul die for preaching we are saved by grace, and not the works of the law. Which Angel revealed this spirit, saying; the devil shall cast some into prison. Which bondage and its tribulation sit in the Law.
In the Gospels, the wars, and rumours of wars Jesus spoke of, dovetails into this Seal, which declares the antichrist takes peace from the earth. But this peace, is not the peace men understand. But rather, this is God Almighty’s Covenant of Peace, which is to believe; JESUS is both LORD and Christ. For in this Holy Place, all His Prophets, Commandments and Gospel, reconcile as one. This is the Peace, JESUS gives Satan power, to remove in us.
If we have fallen here, let us repent, that we may not taste the second death; the death of our souls.
The 3rd Seal:
And lo a black horse; and he that sat upon him had a pair of balances in his hand. And a voice in the midst of the four beasts said, A measure of wheat for a penny, and three measures of barley for a penny; and see you hurt not the oil and the wine. (Revelation 6:5-6)
The 3rd Church Angel Message:
These things says he which has the sharp sword with two edges; I know where Satan’s seat is:… You have those who hold the doctrine of Balaam, who taught Balac to cast a stumbling block before the children of Israel, to eat things sacrificed to idols. So you also have them, that hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans, which thing I hate. (Revelation 2:12-17)
JESUS Gospel Witness:
(Matthew 24:7) For nation shall rise against nation and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences and earthquakes, in divers places.
Men’s doctrines & traditions
Now the ‘two-edged sword,’ is not the ‘great sword’ referred to in the 2nd Seal. This two-edged sword divides between life and death, good and evil, blessing and cursing. And its dividing is the judgement in the law.
JESUS Angel in the church, reveals the idolatry of ‘Balaam’s teachings,’ that plagued Israel in the wilderness. And worse the rise of the Nicolaitan spirit, that first saw Israel desire a king reign over them. And this error abides in us, when we submit to church teachings that forsake JESUS government.
JESUS too in Matthew, warned that nation would rise against nation, and spoke of an Israel born of the flesh, usurping an Israel born of the Spirit. And of a Law in our flesh that seeks to destroy JESUS Liberty in us. Which “Serpent” in Eden, hated Eve’s seed. And which Serpent in Revelation wars with the ‘Woman’s seed’ who keep Jesus Testimony and Commandments. Satan’s Seat abides in the Law.
In this Seal; in the buying and selling of the wheat and barley, we see those sacrifices made under the Law, and glimpse the ‘mark of the beast.’ And while the wheat and barley both represent the ‘bread of Gods Word,’ the three measures of barley that speak of Christs’ Sacrifice, weigh less in the minds of those who are justified by their own deeds.
Understand too, that barley in the context of the Law, was offered up by a jealous husband, to expose a wife’s adultery. And its use in this seal winks at the “image of jealousy,” Daniel and Ezekiel saw. (Numbers 5:15)
In this Seal, JESUS Sacrifice is esteemed less, than those things we abstain from. And while the antichrist as yet cannot hurt the ‘oil and the wine.’ And while the Anointed blood of Christ’s grace yet remains on the altar; JESUS Angel reveals the idolatry in our church teachings, and their ‘images of jealousy,’ that will soon replace the Messiah’s sacrifice.
If we have fallen here, then let us repent; To him that overcomes will JESUS give to eat of the hidden bread, and a new name written, which no man knows saving he that receives it.
The 4th Seal:
Behold a pale horse: and his name that sat on him was Death, and Hell followed with him. And power was given to them over the fourth part of the earth, to kill with sword, and with hunger, and with death, and with the beasts of the earth.(Revelation 6:7-8)
The 4th Church Angel Message:
You suffer that woman Jezebel which calls herself a prophetess, to teach and to seduce my servants to commit fornication, and to eat things sacrificed to idols. Behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into Great Tribulation, except they repent. And I will kill her children with death: (Revelation 2:18-29)
JESUS Gospel Witness
(Matthew 24:8) All these are the beginning of sorrows.
False church gospels
This 4th Seal as Branham pointed out, is a mix of all the Seals before it. The ‘death and hell,’ that follow are bound in the first three Seals. To kill, and condemn one another. The famine and pestilence that fall upon those who change JESUS Gospel. And those ‘Beasts of the Earth,’ that buy and sell our souls. And of doctrines born of corrupt church teachings.
In Elijah’s time, Jezebel put all Gods’ prophets in Israel to death. And her prophets trod down and defiled the Existing Ones ‘Altar of Sacrifice.’ In the Church Ages, church teachings have replaced ‘JESUS Sacrifice,’ and this is the image of jealousy Daniel and Ezekiel foresaw. In this Seal, JESUS removes His ‘grace and blood,’ from the altar.
See too; how the ‘Great Tribulation’ Christians look for, is born in the blasphemy of their own church teachings. And in them, the same antichrist spirit, the Apostle John saw deny JESUS is both Father and Son.
Now JESUS Gospel witness declares; ‘all these are the beginning of sorrows.’ Not the reaping of sorrow, but the sowing. Nor the sorrow we see in the world today, because these Seals unfold in every generation. But the sorrow of the ‘one crying in the wilderness.’
In my next sharing I will share on the final Seals, but pray we examine our Faith. Is it JESUS Faith. In your heart and mind. Is JESUS both LORD and Christ? If not seek him with all your heart. Dear Lord JESUS heal the blind and clothe the naked; in JESUS consecrated name I pray. Amen.
FROM THE FOUR WINDS (Part-3)
The essence of things preached by William Branham in the Church Angel Messages, and Seals, remained hidden to a degree, awaiting the opening of the ‘Trumpets and Plagues.’ Which testimonies place the Messages and Seals in their order.
The 5th Seal:
I saw under the altar the souls of them that were slain for the word of God, and for the testimony which they held: And white robes were given to every one of them; and it was said to them, that they should rest for a season, until their fellow servants and brethren, should be killed as they were… (Revelation 6:9-11)
The 5th Church Angel Message:
Be watchful and strengthen the things which remain, that are ready to die: for I have not found your works perfect before God. If you shall not watch, I will come upon you as a thief… You have a few who have not defiled their garments; and they shall walk with me in white: for they are worthy. He that overcomes, the same shall be clothed in white raiment; (Revelation 3:1-5)
Jesus Gospel Witness
(Matthew 24:9-10) Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and you shall be hated of all nations for my name’s sake. And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another
The multitudes of Ephraim (Israel)
In the 7th Chapter of the Book of Revelation, two seeds separate the Church Angel Messages and Seals from the Trumpets and Plagues. Firstly, Twelve Tribes are named, which Tribes are sealed with the ‘Fathers name’ upon their foreheads in the 14th Chapter. They believe JESUS is the Father. And are the first-fruits purchased by the blood of the Lamb who reside within the borders of JESUS promise. Whose blood and testimony is sufficient for their salvation.
You will notice Ephraim is not named in these Tribes.
Secondly, we see a vast multitude gathered from all nations, who having come out of great tribulation, are clothed in white robes washed in the blood of the Lamb. Which tribulation is reaped from that religious error declared in the Church Angel Messages and Seals. Whose garments are washed white in the blood of the Lamb because they defiled JESUS Gospel and clothed themselves with their own works. And who went beyond the borders of JESUS Salvation.
These are saved by grace purified.
In them we see the ‘Kings’ and ‘Nations’ Almighty God promised Abraham. Whose Spirit in Jacob foretold Ephraim would become a ‘Multitude of Nations,’ when he blessed Joseph’s son’s born in Egypt. And further conferred upon Ephraim, his name Israel. So in the Twelve Tribes who bear the Fathers name we see the line of kings promised Abraham. And in the Multitudes gathered from all nations, we find Ephraim. They are both of them the Israel of God, who descend from the Spirit of Prophecy, which Spirit is the Testimony of Jesus Christ. (Revelation 19:10)
And so the souls of those under the altar, slain for Gods Testimony are those under grace, who have preached their church versions of Jesus Testimony. Whose works and gospels are not perfect, but who, in the many persecutions of God’s church in the nations through the ages, have willingly laid down their lives.
And yet, Christian’s are blind to their being Ephraim’s Multitudes, because they look at the flesh, and not the Spirit. Nor understand the ‘Israel of God,’ shall not inherit those lands promised Abraham upon this earth, but rather the Kingdom of Heaven, Jesus preached. Who before his crucifixion said; “from henceforth my kingdom is not of this world.”
The 6th Seal:
Lo, there was a great earthquake; and the sun became black as sackcloth of hair, and the moon became as blood; And the stars of heaven fell unto the earth, even as a fig tree casts her untimely figs, when she is shaken of a mighty wind. And the heaven departed as a scroll when it is rolled together;… And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains; And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sits on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb: For the great day of his wrath is come; and who shall be able to stand? (Revelation 6:12-17)
The 6th Church Angel Message:
These things says he that is holy, he that is true, he that has the key of David, he that opens, and no man shuts; and shuts, and no man opens; I know thy works: behold, I have set before thee an open door, and no man can shut it: for you have a little strength, and have kept my word, and have not denied my name. Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved you. Because you have kept the word of my patience, I also will keep thee from the hour of temptation, which shall come upon all the world, to try them that dwell upon the earth…. Behold, I come quickly: hold that fast which you have, that no man take thy crown. (Revelation 3:7-12)
Jesus Gospel Witness
(Matthew 24: 11-14) And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many. And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold. But he that shall endure to the end, the same shall be saved. And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness to all nations; and then shall the end come.
Christ’s Covenant falling away
The 6th Church Angel Message speaks of the ‘Key of David,’ which key Peter declared at Pentecost, saying: JESUS is both LORD and Christ. That is; JESUS is both the Existing One and the Anointed One. And in this truth abide twelve tribes, who believe; ‘God is One LORD.’ Which Commandment Moses said, would be a sign upon the ‘forehead and right hands’ of an Israel born of God.
This Faith ‘marks’ God’s children.
Then, this same Messenger reveals the perversion of this very truth, in those who say they are Jews, but are not. That is; they say they bear Gods Testimony, yet deny JESUS is both the Father and Son. Like the trinitarian hordes who have devoured God’s Word; “with Eden before them, and a desolate wilderness after.” (Joel 2:3)
Their church beliefs mark them.
The 6th Seal reveals the ‘sun’ becoming black, the ‘moon’ turning to blood, and the stars falling to earth. Of these lights the Prophet Jeremiah, when speaking of the ‘New Covenant,’ whereby the Existing One would dwell in his people, said; ‘Thus saith the LORD which gives the sun for a light by day and the ordinances of the moon and of the stars for a light by night. If those ordinances depart from before me, says the LORD, then the seed of Israel shall cease from being a nation before me forever.’ (Jeremiah 31:31-36)
For the Sun and the Moon, are the testimonies of JESUS Gospel and Moses Law; the Songs of the Lamb and Moses. Just as the stars refer to God Almighty’s promise to Abraham; ‘that his seed would be as the stars of heaven in their multitude.’ And these stars falling to earth, and the Fig tree casting down its fruit, both speak of JESUS Testimony falling away in those vast numbers of Christians, the multitudes of Ephraim in the nations. And finally in this 6th Seal we hear of great men, bond and free hiding in the dens and rocks of the mountains who hide from the wrath of the Lamb. Which dens and rocks, are those church teachings men hide behind, when JESUS Gospel is preached in Spirit and in truth
Concerning this Seal. When Jeremiah spoke of the New Covenant, and the ordinances of the sun, the moon and the stars, he pointed to JESUS promise to dwell in us, saying: ‘I shall not leave you comfortless, I shall come to you, and shall be in you.’ And this promise was fulfilled in those who believed at Pentecost, and still believe today; JESUS is both the Existing One and Christ. Of this, the Apostle Paul speaks to an Israel born of the Spirit, to examine their faith, and to know that JESUS dwells in us.
This brethren, is the Faith of JESUS.
So we see in the Church Angels Messages, Seals, Trumpets and Plagues, an Israel born of God emerge. Yet above all this Seal speaks of the falling away of Gods Testimony in His people. And from their corruption of JESUS Gospel and Commandments come great tribulation. Which affliction is foretold in Gods Covenant with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob. And which prophecy foresaw their seed would go into bondage, and be greatly afflicted, before being delivered from their captivity.
And this affliction was not only evident in Moses day but in the days when Israel and Judah were taken captive into Assyria and Babylon. And this same captivity and tribulation has repeated in every age of Jesus Church in the nations, as they have cast Jesus Testimony down, and bowed to their own creeds. And having sown the wind, they reap the whirlwind.
So as we come to the 7th Seal in Revelation, we come also to that place in Matthew, Mark and Luke, where JESUS spoke of the ‘Abomination of Desolation,’ as seen by Daniel the Prophet, which abomination is their teachings and creeds. And from their rebellion, desolation.
The Messages and Seals confirm it. To leave our first love is to forsake JESUS Gospel. To partake of Balaam’s idolatry is to sit in Moses Seat; to accuse and judge one another. The sacrifice and fornication of Jezebel is to bow to another gospel. Can you not see, that JESUS Angel in revealing the root cause of ancient Israel’s carrying away into Babylon, is speaking to an Israel born in the Nations. Which seed in Revelation is taken into the wilderness on the wings of an eagle.
In the ‘4th Part of the Four Winds,’ I will share on the ‘7th Seal,’ and that portion of JESUS ‘end times’ message, that follows the abomination seen by Daniel. For in the Messages and Seals we have seen the sowing of Ephraim’s rebellion found in our religious systems. And following Daniel’s prophecy, shall come an Israel from the four winds, that have reaped great tribulation. Which things we find in the Trumpets and Plagues.
I pray the one Isaiah called the Everlasting Father, even the Son of Promise, named JESUS Christ, bless this sharing in your heart and mind. In JESUS consecrated glory I pray, Amen.
FROM THE FOUR WINDS – PART-4
Cain killed Abel because God rejected his offering. And Cain knowing those who dwelt outside Eden, would kill him for his brothers murder found refuge in the mark of the LORDS ‘sevenfold vengeance.’ Which vengeance and its desolation is seen in the LORD’S Covenant with Israel, in (Leviticus 26). Of Adams sons it is written:
When the most High separated the sons of Adam, He divided to the nations their inheritance, according to the number of the children of Israel.
In the Church Angel Messages, and Seals we see a church in the nations, war against and overcome the saints. When Daniel saw the Messiah cut off, and Jerusalem destroyed, he saw JESUS sacrifice replaced with a religious alternative. And from men’s error has come the sevenfold desolation we see in the Four Winds of the Angels Messages, Seals, Trumpets and Plagues.
The 7th Seal reads:
And when he had opened the seventh seal, there was silence in heaven about the space of, half an hour. (Revelation 8:1)
And the 7th Church Angel Message:
Because you say, I am rich and increased with goods, and have need of nothing; and do not know that you are wretched, poor, blind, and naked: I counsel you to buy of me gold tried in the fire that you may be rich and white raiment that you may be clothed;.. As many as I love, I rebuke and chasten: be zealous therefore and repent. (Revelation 3:15-20)
Jesus Gospel Witness (Matthew 24:15)
When you shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place (whoso reads let him understand:)
When we understand the abomination is the error in our church teachings and beliefs. And realise our salvation abides in JESUS sacrifice and not our works. Then we turn from Cain’s error. And in coming to this place of understanding, we are commanded to stand in the Holy Place.
And that Holy Place, is JESUS Faith.
The ‘half hour silence,’ of the 7th Seal is the dividing of time, and times spoken of in the Book of Daniel which end times JESUS declared in the Books of Matthew, Mark and Luke. In Daniel we read:
And one said to the man upon the waters of the river, How long shall it be to the end of these wonders? And the man upon the river, sware by him that lives for ever that it shall be for a time, times, and a half; and when he shall have accomplished to scatter the power of the holy people, all these things shall be finished… for the words are sealed till the time of the end. Many shall be purified, and made white, and tried… and the wise shall understand. (Daniel 12:6-10)
The 7th Seal not only open Daniels’ Book, but JESUS Testimony in all the Books of the Bible. And encompasses all of Revelation from the thunders, lightening and earthquakes that open the seven Trumpets; to the thunders, lightening and great earthquake, that close the seven Plagues. From the Sabbaths and Feasts of Israel, to Babylon’s fall and the cleansing of the Tabernacle in Heaven.
As I have shared, the desolation seen by Daniel in Matthew 24, Mark 13, and Luke 21, divide the times of sowing and reaping. The first portion of these chapters sees JESUS Gospel corrupted, and the sowing of religious error. And the later parts of reaping that errors desolation. I point out again, Christians not only pass through the tribulation but in so doing fulfill the Covenant of God Almighty’s oath to Abraham, Isaac and Jacob.
JESUS end time message in Matthew 24 lays out the abomination of desolation from one perspective. In Luke 21 we see another, as JESUS speaks of Jerusalem surrounded by armies; of its impending desolation, and of people being led into captivity. And says; “For these are the days of vengeance that all things might be fulfilled. Which sevenfold vengeance abides in the Law, and which darkness and horror Abraham saw, when God had him divide three beasts in their midst.
Now, Jerusalem speaks of JESUS Gospel upon earth, and the armies about it our churches, in whom Ephraim’s rebellion dwells. They are the locust armies Joel saw would devour God’s Testimony; ‘with Eden before them and a desolate wilderness behind.’ And the same captivity JESUS spoke of in Luke, JESUS Spirit warns us of in (Revelation 13:10).
Errant church teachings oppose JESUS Gospel, and take us into bondage. The Trumpets declare this fall. In Revelations three Beasts we see Gods Covenant with Abraham. In the Dragons ten horns, the Ten Commandments God gave to Israel. In the body of the Beast rising from the nations, Daniels’ four beasts. The first, a lion with its eagles wings removed and stood upon the earth as a man, is JESUS Gospel given on earth. Which bread from heaven, like Daniels Beasts and Revelations Seals, corrupt in four stages if tampered with. And finally, the Beast of the Earth, whose gospels replace Jesus Salvation.
It is here, we find the ‘abomination that makes us desolate.’
For when Daniel, saw the first three of the Ten Horns of the Beast ripped out, and replaced by a little horn with a blasphemous mouth. He saw men mutilate JESUS Testimony bound in the first three of the Ten Commandments. Which declare; ¹He is the Existing One. ²Not to make an image of Him. ³And command us not to make His name void. Yet the trinity, and Jehovah’s Witness teachings, as examples, do exactly that.
As Israel’s idolatry manifest in former times, so religious blasphemy has reigned in the times of the Nations. And its wound only JESUS Faith can heal. In an Israel of God who like Peter believe, JESUS is both the Existing One and Christ. And like Paul understand; Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever.
And whose Judgement sits in the end time.
We read in Matthew 24: Immediately after the tribulation of those days, the sun be darkened and the moon shall not give her light and the stars shall fall from heaven and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken: Then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven; Then shall all the Tribes of the earth mourn. And he shall send his angels with the sound of a ‘Great Trumpet,’ and shall gather together his elect from the Four Winds. (Matthew 24:29-31)
So JESUS Salvation must fall in our religious systems, and as Daniel heard; the power of the holy people scattered. And the Tribes who mourn are those multitudes who believe the ‘sign of the son of man in heaven,’ which sign is the restoration of JESUS Heavenly Gospel. As the Angels Trumpets bring down the walls of Babylon’s confusion in us. So the 7th Trumpet, restores JESUS Faith in an Israel born of His Great Commandment; (the Great Trumpet)
Hear O Israel: the LORD thy God is One LORD.
And when Ephraim’s multitudes, on seeing JESUS Testimony raised, repent of the blasphemy that has cut and torn the one they profess to love. Then JESUS Heavenly Gospel shall be cleansed in them in the seven times of the Plagues. And their garments shall be made white in the blood of the Lamb, and their souls shall be healed.
When JESUS on the Mount shared on the end times, He began by saying; “not one stone of the temple at Jerusalem would remain upon another’ and this he spoke concerning His Gospel. And concluded his sharing on the end times, by saying; ‘heaven and earth shall pass away but my Word shall remain.’
Then shared the parable of the Fig Tree, which Tree is JESUS Faith. Its Branch, Christs Salvation. And its Leaves, the love of His grace and truth and the healing of the nations.
Now as the 7th Trumpet declares; ‘the kingdoms of this world become our LORD and His Christ.’ So the 7th Plague declares an end. And as our carnal beliefs pass away, so comes a new Heaven and a new Earth. And from Heaven descends New Jerusalem; JESUS Faith glorified in us. And in the Gates of His Christ, abide Twelve Angels who bear JESUS Spirit in them. Whose names in Jacobs sons foretold Gods purpose. And which Spirit of Prophecy in time, divided to each tribe an inheritance in Canaan.
But which Tribes in Heaven have ever borne JESUS name upon their foreheads. For they are JESUS Testimony, and call to an Israel born of His Spirit. And the Angels of His Breath in their season, bring forth twelve manner of fruits in us.
And then as He is, so we become.
I pray the LORD bless His grace and truth in your soul and bring you, made perfect to himself. Amen.
I started this sharing on the four winds with our brother Ezekiel and now have him close. In this portion we see a valley full of dry bones, and an Israel who have fallen and in whom their is no breath and no hope. Then the LORD said to Ezekiel: “Prophesy to the wind, prophesy, son of man, and say to the wind, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Come from the Four Winds, O breath, and breathe upon these slain, that they may live. (Ezekiel 37:9)
