"He that hath an ear, let him hear what the Spirit saith unto the churches"

Rev.2:7

The Bible is the basis for True Christianity

“For I delivered unto you first of all that which I also received, how that Christ died for our sins according to the scriptures; And that he was buried, and that he rose again the third day according to the scriptures:” (1 Corinthians 15:3-4, KJV)

“In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” (John 1:1, KJV)

“And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written, That man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word of God.” (Luke 4:4, KJV)

11 The first thing we wish to look…draw your attention to, is the  infallibility  of God’s Word. God keeps His Word, to the letter. And tonight we want to fasten our thoughts on that, that God keeps His Word. We can rest assure of anything that God has said in His Word, to be the Truth. And faith does not rest upon the shifting sands of man’s ideas or man’s theology, but it has its final resting place on the unmovable Rock of God’s Eternal Word.     [57-0420 - THE ENTOMBMENT]

520 Therefore, if there’s any contradiction, that anyone would think that the Scriptures contradict each other, that’s an error. There is no Scripture contradicts a Scripture. The—the contradiction is where that maybe It contradicts our way of looking at It, but It doesn’t contradict Itself.     [57-0915M - HEBREWS, CHAPTER SIX #3]

56 When God first set the human race in…on earth, He told them they live by His Word. Now the Word of God is like a chain, you’re passing across hell with It; and its chain is only its best at its weakest link, and God wants us to keep every Word of It. Now that was the first of the Bible; just to break one Word, plunged the human race into a darkness of death.

57 Jesus came in the middle of the Bible, and He said that, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word.” Not just part of the Words, or ninety-nine out of a hundred; but every Word, just like Eve and Adam was.

58 And in the last of the Bible, Revelation 22:18, He said that, “Whosoever shall take a Word out of This, or add one word to It!”     [65-0123 - "BROKEN CISTERNS"]

On Sin

“For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God; Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:” (Romans 3:23-24, KJV)

“Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:” (Romans 5:12, KJV)

“Behold, I was shapen in iniquity; and in sin did my mother conceive me.” (Psalms 51:5, KJV)

“He that covereth his sins shall not prosper: but whoso confesseth and forsaketh them shall have mercy.” (Proverbs 28:13, KJV)

48 What is sin? What is sin? Not drinking, not smoking, not gambling, not rejecting church. Sin is unbelief. Is that right? He that believeth not is condemned already. See? You’re not…You do not…You’re not destroyed or separated from God because you’re a sinner. You’re separated to God—from God because you refuse to walk with Him, to walk in His provided way.      [50-0711 - MINISTRY EXPLAINED]

13 I was talking to someone today, was talking on the word of “sin.” I said, “Drinking whiskey is not a sin. Smoking cigarettes is not sin. Living in adultery’s not a sin.”

A lady raised up and said, “Well, Brother Branham, what is a sin?”

I said, “That’s the attributes of sin. Sin produces that. That isn’t sin; that’s what sin produces.” I said, “Because that you live good, that’s not because you’re a Christian. That’s the attributes of Christian life.” See?You are a sinner because you believe not. And Jesus said to the people, after He’d performed His work, He said, “Go ye, and…” What no more? Sin no more. What would sin be then? “Disbelieve no more or worse things than this will come upon you.”     [53-0604 - THE ANGEL OF THE LORD]

28 If…You’re not condemned because you are a sinner; you’re condemned because you don’t accept Jesus as your Saviour. Now, God would be unjust to condemn you and not make a preparation for you to come out of it, because you were borned in sin, shaped in iniquity, come to the world speaking lies.  

No matter who your parents was, or what they were, you’re still just a sinner, as any other child, when you’re born in this world.

We’re all born in sin. We could not save ourself. We could no more save ourself, than we could take our boot straps and lift ourself over the moon. We could not do it. We’re totally helpless. And therefore, God would not condemn you on those basis because you are a sinner. He’d condemn you because you refuse to take the way of escape. So therefore, it isn’t God; it’s yourself. You condemn yourselfAnd when you condemn yourself, there’s nobody to pity but yourself. That’s all. We’re…You—you must pity yourself, because you haven’t accepted God’s provided way of escape.     [61-0125 - "WHY?"]

On Judgement

“For the time is come that judgment must begin at the house of God: and if it first begin at us, what shall the end be of them that obey not the gospel of God?” (1 Peter 4:17, KJV)

“Say unto them, As I live, saith the Lord GOD, I have no pleasure in the death of the wicked; but that the wicked turn from his way and live: turn ye, turn ye from your evil ways; for why will ye die, O house of Israel?” (Ezekiel 33:11, KJV)

“Blessed and holy is he that hath part in the first resurrection: on such the second death hath no power, but they shall be priests of God and of Christ, and shall reign with him a thousand years.” (Revelation 20:6, KJV)

[Question] When—when you say “the wicked shall not burn Eternally,”…(Well, now I got Jehovah Witness on the run, haven’t I?)…When you say the wicked will not burn Eternally, do you mean in hell or in the lake of fire? I know it says in Revelation (that’s the 20th chapter) that hell will be cast into the lake of fire. If they do not burn Eternally, then what becomes of them?

227 Just as I have just got through saying, brother or sister, whoever it was; they become extinct, there’s no more to them. They had a beginning, and there they end; they’re just nothing no more. How will…how long they will burn, that’s just hard telling. But, look, there…

228 If you can just get this in your mind, see, it’s very simple. There is but one type of Eternal Life, and that comes through God Himself. And God alone is Eternal Life. If you’ll just get here in the lexicon, look up the Greek word Zoe. Zoe is “Eternal Life.” Eternal Life is “God.” And Jesus said, “I give unto them Eternal Life.” And if you’ll look here at the lexicon, it said, “Zoe.” That’s the only Eternal Life there is. No place in the Bible where It ever says there’ll be an Eternal hell, it said they’ll burn “forever and ever.”     [57-0925 - "QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON HEBREWS #1"]

[Question] 185. Is hell, and the lake that burneth with fire and brimstone, the same?

191 No. Hell, translation in the Bible, I believe…Now, there is scholars sitting here, and I want to honor that. Our Brother Iverson sitting here, and Brother Vayle, and many of these brethren who are really theologians. The word translated, hades, means the “grave.” Is that right? The Greek word for the grave. But the Lake of Fire is something else. Because, over in Revelation, “Both, hades and all, was cast into the Lake of Fire.” See? All right. Now let’s see.

[Question] 186. If not, is the Lake of Fire, and hell, Eternal?

192 No, sir. No, sir. Anything that was created is not Eternal. No. Anything that’s created…That’s the reason there cannot be an Eternal hell. If anybody ever tells you that you’re going to burn in an Eternal hell, I want the Scripture for it. See? There’s no such a thing as that.

193 Hell was created for the devil and his angels, for the antichrist and his people; that was the devil, incarnate devil. It was created for that, to destroy. And anything that had…Anything…

194 There’s only one thing, at all, out of everything there is, the whole world and everything else, there’s only one thing Eternal, and that’s God. Before there was an atom, or electrons, or before there was even cosmic light, electrons or anything, He was God. He’s a Creator.     [63-0324M - "QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON THE SEALS"]

On the End Time Ministry

“And it shall come to pass in that day, that the light shall not be clear, nor dark: But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.” (Zechariah 14:6-7, KJV)

“Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he revealeth his secret unto his servants the prophets. The lion hath roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD hath spoken, who can but prophesy?” (Amos 3:7-8, KJV)

Previous Biblical End Times

“And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man. They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all. Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded; But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all. Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.” (Luke 17:26-30, KJV) 

322 Look, when Jesus made that declaration, the world went right on. See? The world went right on, normally. Why? For they knew not their hour.

323 The world went right on, when Noah went into the ark. The world moved right on. The scoffers, in that day, they still had sex parties. They still eat, drink, married, done the things they do today. Just exactly, normally. “Ha-ha! That old holy-roller closed the door. Now, did you ever hear of such a thing? Ha-ha! You know what he says? We’re all going to be ‘drowned.’ Nonsense! Where is the water at?”

324 Scoffers, in the days of Noah. “So shall it be in the coming of the Son of man.” All right. Noah knew the sign. Same thing in the days of Lot. Same things in the days of Jesus. So is it today. They scoff their last time…?…

325 Same at Sodom, they never knew. When that Messenger was standing there, Message from God, they only laughed at them and tried to pervert them to their own acts. Is that right? “Come in and join us. Be one of us.” Is that right? “Come in and join us, be one of us. You’ll be one of the boys. Come on, join us.” See? They never knew their sign.

326 They didn’t know that when that Message was going on, that the very…They couldn’t see it, that the fire and wrath of judgment, as God, a fire blazes of brimstone was kindling in the skies. They couldn’t see it. The messengers could. Uh-huh. Lot knew it, too. He knew it was there. Certainly.

327 Same as it is today, just the same thing. Wrath is kindling, atomic bombs are hanging, everything is at the end. It’s the same now.

328 Look, people, listen. Did you know…You say, “Brother Branham, oh, what about all of it?” You know, people can go right on preaching the Gospel like they always did, what they call the Gospel, it could be over. They did in the days of Noah. They did in the days of Lot. They did in the days of Jesus. That right?     [63-1110M - "SOULS THAT ARE IN PRISON NOW"]

End Time Prophecy

“But thou, O Daniel, shut up the words, and seal the book, even to the time of the end: many shall run to and fro, and knowledge shall be increased.” (Daniel 12:4, KJV)

“Behold, I will send you Elijah the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the LORD: And he shall turn the heart of the fathers to the children, and the heart of the children to their fathers, lest I come and smite the earth with a curse.” (Malachi 4:5-6, KJV)

And Jesus answered and said unto them, “Elias truly shall first come, and restore all things.” (Matthew 17:11, KJV)

End Time Messenger

“And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write; These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God;” (Revelation 3:14, KJV)

“But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.” (Revelation 10:7, KJV) 

I want to make one more comparison between the Laodicean prophet-messenger and John, the prophet-messenger who preceded Jesus’ first coming. The people in John’s day mistook him for the Messiah. John 1:19-20, “And this is the record of John, when the Jews sent priests and Levites from Jerusalem to ask him, Who art thou? And he confessed, and denied not; but confessed, I am not the Christ.” Now this last-day prophet-messenger will have such power before the Lord that there will be those who mistake him for the Lord Jesus. (There will be a spirit in the world at the end time that will seduce some and make them believe this. Matthew 24:24-26, “For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect. Behold, I have told you before. Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, He is in the desert; go not forth: behold, He is in the secret chambers; believe it not.”) But don’t you believe it. He is not Jesus Christ. He is not the Son of God. HE IS ONE OF THE BRETHREN, A PROPHET, A MESSENGER, A SERVANT OF GOD. He needs no greater honor bestowed upon him than that which John received when he was the voice that cried, “I am not He, BUT HE IS COMING AFTER ME.”     [CAB 09 - LAODICEAN - "9 - THE LAODICEAN CHURCH AGE"]

366 Now listen. This Angel come down from Heaven. See? The other, seven angels of the seven churches, was earthly messengers. But this Angel…All the Message is finished; the seventh angel winds up the whole thing. And this Angel comes not to the earth; He isn’t a man from the earth, as the messengers to the church ages; that’s finished. But, this Angel brings the next announcement. And an angel means a “messenger.” And He comes down from Heaven, clothed in that Pillar of Light, Cloud, with a rainbow over His head. And a rainbow is a covenant. It was Christ, “With one foot on land, and one on the sea, and swore, that, ‘Time will be no more.’”

Where are we at, sirs? What’s all this about? I’m asking you.

367 The other angels was messengers, men of the earth. But this Angel…These, that said, “To the angel of the church of Laodicea,” “To the angel of the church of Ephesus,” messengers of the earth; see, men, messengers, prophets, and so forth, to the church.

368 But, this One didn’t come from the earth. He come down from Heaven, because the mystery is all finished. And when the mystery is finished, the Angel said, “Time shall be no more,” and Seven Thunders throwed their voices out.     [62-1230E – IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END, SIR]

End Time Anointed Ones

“For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.” (Matthew 24:24, KJV)

“Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation.” (2 Peter 3:3-4, KJV) 

At the junction of every time that I’m going to speak on in a few nights…Listen to this, brother. When all heaven opens up all hell opens up with it. The Bible said in the last days that they’d say, “Lo, He is in the desert. Lo, He’s here. Lo, He’s there,” all kinds of signs and wonders. Said, “Believe it not, for as the lightning cometh from the east and shineth even to the west, so shall the coming of the Son of man be.” And every eye shall see Him, every knee shall bow, every tongue shall confess. Certainly. In the last days this is to happen.

27 Children, the Bible said, “As Jannes and Jambres (the two-headed god of Egypt) withstood Moses, so will these resist the truth, men of reprobate mind concerning the truth.” The Truth is God’s Word. He said, “What is Truth?”     [57-0306 - GOD KEEPS HIS WORD #1]
