AN EXPOSITION OF THE SEVEN THUNDERS
By Brother Ron Millevo
The Word of God and the Message-of-the-Hour are written in RIDDLES. Jesus hid it from the eyes of the wise and prudent but revealed it to babes such as will learn. You and I, as the Bride of Christ, must have the proper spiritual understanding in order for us to be able to understand the mystery of these "Seven Thunders". Revelation only comes from God. No man can impart it to another man. All we can do is to present the truth and the Message based on the Revealed Word. This is my personal understanding about it. I respect those who differ. God bless you.
Question: "WHAT is a THUNDER? "
A Thunder, according to the following Scriptures, spiritually signifies the "VOICE of God":
Psalms 77:18 - "The voice of thy thunder [was] in the heaven: the lightnings lightened the world; the earth trembled and shook." "
Psalms 104:7 - "At Thy rebuke they fled; at the voice of Thy thunder they hasted away."
In John 12:28, we find Jesus was talking with the Father, and the people around Him taught that they heard a THUNDER:
(Scripture) JOHN
12:28:
“Father, glorify thy name”. Then came
there a VOICE from heaven, [saying], “I have both glorified
[it], and will glorify [it] again”. The PEOPLE therefore, that stood by, and
HEARD [it], said that it THUNDERED: others said, An angel spake
to him. Jesus answered and said, This VOICE came not because of me, but
for your sakes."
Rev. William Branham confirms this by saying that the “THUNDER” symbolizes the “VOICE” OF GOD, in the following extracted sermons:
(Quote)
“When the THUNDER... Remember, a loud clapping
NOISE of a THUNDER is the VOICE of
God. That's what the Bible said (See?), a clap of THUNDER.
They THOUGHT it was a THUNDER, but it was GOD. He understood
it, for it was revealed to Him. See? It was a THUNDER. And notice, the
First SEAL opened--the First Seal WHEN it was OPEN in the SYMBOL form, it
“THUNDERED”. (FIRST.SEAL.THE.title
JEFF.IN 63-0318)
“Now, let us FIND the SYMBOLS. We found out what the THUNDER MEANS. That's perfectly; we KNOW that. See? The THUNDER was the VOICE of GOD when the SEAL OPENED.” FIRST.SEAL.THE.title JEFF.IN 63-0318
This prophet of God clearly taught that the “THUNDER” was the “VOICE OF GOD” that sounded out WHEN THE SEALS WERE OPENED, confirming the succeeding Scripture:
REVELATION 6:1:
“And I saw when
the Lamb OPENED one of the SEALS, and I HEARD, as it
were the NOISE of THUNDER, one of the four beasts
saying, Come and see."
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Here is my 8-point summary regarding these SEVEN THUNDERS, based from what the messenger of the age has stated:
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
1. THE MYSTERIES OF THE SEVEN THUNDERS ARE ALREADY WRITTEN IN THE BIBLE BUT WAS MISSED
BACK THERE. NOTHING CAN BE ADDED TO THE BIBLE
anymore:
FEAST.OF.THE.TRUMPETS.title JEFF.IN V-3 N-16
64-0719M
"And he said that this--in THAT DAY that he see HIM come
down, and he
EAT up the LITTLE BOOK. And there was... He put one foot on land
and
one on the sea and swore by Him that lives and ever and ever,
that
time shall be no more. And when He DID, SEVEN THUNDERS
uttered their
VOICES. And when the SEVEN THUNDERS uttered their VOICES, John
said
he was about to write; and He said, "Don't write it." See? And
he
sealed it… WHAT IT IS, is a "REVELATION" on what has been MISSED
BACK
there, to bring to... It's ALREADY WROTE here; it's IN HERE; it's
to
REVEAL what's ALREADY's BEEN WRITTEN (See?), 'cause you
can't ADD one
thing to It or take one word from It."
FIRST.SEAL.THE_ JEFF.IN MONDAY_ 63-0318
And then there's
coming forth seven mysterious thunders that's not
even written at
all. That's right. And I believe that through those
seven
thunders will be revealed in the last days in order to get the
Bride together
for rapturing faith; because what we got right now, we-
-we wouldn't
be able to do it. There's something we've got to step
farther; we--we can't
have enough faith for Divine healing hardly.
We've got to have enough faith
to be changed in a moment and be swept
up out of this earth, and we'll find
that after a while, the Lord
willing, **find where it's written.***
GOD.HIDING.HIMSELF.IN.SIMPLICITY_ ALBQ.NM FRIDAY_

Something happened the other day. You read the--or
heard the tape,
the seven thunders,
"What Time Is It, Sir?" See? It happened the
other day. You know
these things... The time is at hand, church. The
time is at hand.
Don't--don't--don't wait any longer. See, how do you
know the rapture's not
going on all the time? First thing you know
it'll be past, one disappearing
here, and there. It'll be gone the
first thing you know, and you'll—judgment
will strike the world. You
say, "Well, I thought this..." "It's too late
now." You remember,
they didn't know it until the day they entered into the
ark, and then
it was too late. The foolish virgin didn't know until she come
back
and found the wise virgin gone. Then she was left for the
tribulation
period."
2. BROTHER BRANHAM CAN NO LONGER ADD TO THE BIBLE BY INTRODUCING
ANY NEW "THUNDERS" DOCTRINE. THAT'S ACCORDING TO HIS VERY OWN
WORDS:
UNVEILING.OF.GOD_
JEFF.IN V-9 N-1 SUNDAY_ 64-0614M
"Now, someone has been, many has been
saying to me, and theologians
said, "Brother Branham, if the Lord God..."
Said, "If--if with your
experience that the Lord has given you for His
people," humbly saying
this, said, "you'd be ELIGIBLE to WRITE a--a
Bible yourself,
your Word that God has manifested."
I said, "That
MIGHT be true." See, he was trying to CATCH me. See?
And I said,
"But, you see, I COULDN'T do that."
He said, "Why couldn't?
You have all the qualifications."
I said, "But, you look, ONE word
CANNOT be ADDED or taken away." See?
And he said, "Well then,
them SEVEN THUNDERS (You see?),"
said, "wouldn't them seven
thunders blasting out, won't that be a
revelation be give to some man?"
I
SAID, "NO, sir, it would be adding something to It or taking
something from
It." It's ALL REVEALED IN THERE, and the SEVEN
SEALS
OPENED up the revelation of WHAT that was.
See?"

THUNDERS GO TOGETHER:
BREACH.THE.title
JEFF.IN 63-0317E
"This SEVEN-SEALED BOOK is REVEALED at the
TIME of the SEVEN THUNDERS of Revelations 10."
The seals, therefore, were the "covering" of the Book, but the "thunders"
were the contents of the Book which are the "mystery truths"
contained inside the seven seals.
4. A THUNDER MEANT A "VOICE"
REVEALING A MYSTERY, NOT "VIRTUES",
NOR ANY OTHER "MAN" THAT'S TO COME AFTER BROTHER BRANHAM.
“Now,
let us FIND the SYMBOLS. We found out what the THUNDER MEANS. That's perfectly;
we KNOW that. See? The THUNDER was the VOICE
of GOD when the SEAL OPENED.”

6. THE
THUNDERS WERE HIDDEN MYSTERIES WHICH WERE REVEALED WHEN THE SEALS OPENED:
QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS.title JEFF.IN COD
64-0830E
Q-395. "Have the SEVEN THUNDERS
which EQUALS SEVEN MYSTERIES already been revealed? Were they revealed in
the Seven Seals, but are yet--
but are yet NOT known to us as the thunders yet?
Answer: No, THEY WERE REVEALED IN THE SEVEN SEALS; that's
WHAT the
THUNDERS WAS ABOUT. They was TO REVEAL... The SEVEN THUNDERS
that had
uttered their VOICES and no one could make out what it was... John KNEW what
it was, but he was forbidden to write it. He said, "BUT the SEVENTH
ANGEL, in the DAYS of his SOUNDING, the SEVEN MYSTERIES of the SEVEN THUNDERS
would be REVEALED." And the SEVENTH angel is a "MESSENGER"
of the SEVENTH church age. See?"
7. THE THUNDERS WERE the "MYSTERY TRUTHS" CONTAINED INSIDE THE SEVEN SEALS. THE SEALS WERE JUST THE COVERING:
REVELATION
6:1-2
"And I saw when the Lamb OPENED one of the
SEALS, and I HEARD, as it
were the NOISE of THUNDER, one of the FOUR BEASTS
saying, Come and
SEE. 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."
Let me say at this point that the Seven Thunders was revealed by Brother
Branham to us, and not by any other man in the future. This is based solidly
on the Message:
327-1 LAODICEAN.CHURCH.AGE - CHURCH.AGE.BOOK.CPT.9
"Now this MESSENGER of Malachi 4 and
Revelation 10:7 is going to do
TWO things. One: According to Malachi 4 he will
turn the hearts of
the children to the fathers. TWO: ***HE
WILL REVEAL the MYSTERIES of the
SEVEN THUNDERS in Revelation 10*** WHICH
ARE the "REVELATIONS" CONTAINED in the
SEVEN SEALS."
At the Sabino Canyon, Brother Branham heard a big blast (thunder), and then seven messages were given unto him by seven angels following that big blast of thunder, thereby fulfilling this scripture of Revelation 6:1-2. In the succeeding quote, he tells us of his experience:
"Remember the constellation of the vision of the Angels when I left here to go to Arizona? You remember, "What Time Is It, Sirs?" Do you remember that? Notice, there was only one great burst of thunder, and seven Angels appeared. Is that right? One burst of thunder, seven Angels appeared. “And I saw the Lamb when He had opened the First Seal, and I heard as it was a voice of a thunder, and one of the four beasts said, Come and see.”Notice, one thunder, seven messages that's been sealed up and cannot be revealed until the last day, at this age." (WMB, SEVENTH.SEAL.THE.title JEFF.IN 63-0324E)
That "Seventh Seal" event in Arizona actually opened all the other revelations of the other six seals. Brother Branham could only preach about the first six seals in a series in Jeffersonville, IN USA in March of 1963 only after his "seventh seal" experience, that blasting thunder in that mountain bringing down a constellation of seven angels from heaven forming the HEAD of CHRIST, the Mighty Angel coming in a form of a Cloud, bringing to earth the OPEN BOOK, which was the fulfillment of Revelation 10:1-7.
The SEALS when Opened, revealed the THUNDERS inside the Book. These thunders are the "mystery-truths" contained inside the seven seals, according to Brother Branham himself.
WHAT
THOSE SEVEN THUNDERS MEANT
1. It's very plain that the FIRST THUNDER pertained to the WHITE HORSE
RIDER (a symbol with an unwritten meaning).
But when the "mystery-truth" was explained to us by the seventh angel about this symbol, he taught us that it was the ANTICHRIST in Spirit Form, impersonating the Word, having a bow without an arrow (a bluffer) while the LION Spirit that announced it was the beast from God to counteract the forces of this white horse rider. The announcing Lion signified BOLDNESS of the preaching of the Gospel under the ministry of Saint Paul. This was the first mystery in a row of seven. Take note that the symbol was written, but the meaning of the symbol John was forbidden to write. John heard and saw the symbols, but the meaning of the symbols were revealed to the seventh angel of Revelation 10:7. The symbols were revealed to us only when the seventh angel sounded his message - it was a "thundering" mystery exposing the advent of the AntiChrist.
The First Seal truly opened the mystery of the first thunder which was the mystery truth about the White Horse Rider. Again, let me refer you to this very quote showing that it was Brother Branham who had to open the mystery of the seven thunders, not ANY OTHER MAN after him:
“Now this MESSENGER of Malachi 4 and Revelation 10:7 is going to do
TWO things. One: According to Malachi 4 he will turn the hearts of the
children to the fathers. TWO: HE WILL REVEAL the
MYSTERIES of the SEVEN THUNDERS in
Revelation 10 WHICH ARE the “REVELATIONS” CONTAINED
in the SEVEN SEALS. It will be these Divinely revealed
`mystery-truths' that literally turn the hearts of the children
to the Pentecostal fathers.” 327-1
LAODICEAN.CHURCH.AGE -
CHURCH.AGE.BOOK.CPT.9
2. When the SECOND THUNDER was revealed, it revealed a RED HORSE RIDER
(symbol). But when the "mystery-truth" was revealed
to us by the seventh angel, Red Horse Rider pertained to the CHRISTIAN
PERSECUTION during the dark ages. That was the second
mystery-truth of the SEALED VISION of DANIEL and JOHN. It was about the same
old Devil riding on a red horse which was then counteracted by God's higher
standard – God's second BEAST, the CALF – a beast of burden, a beast of sacrifice,
which used the ministry of Martin and Columba. When the Christians were persecuted,
burned at stake, fed to lions, dying gladly for the Word of God during the
Dark Ages, God raised up His standard by giving them a spirit of sacrifice.
Surely the HORSE here was RED symbolizing a blood-hungry devil riding on it.
"THEY WERE REVEALED IN THE SEVEN SEALS; that's
WHAT the THUNDERS WAS ABOUT. They
was TO REVEAL... The SEVEN THUNDERS that had uttered their
VOICES and no one could make out what it was... John KNEW what it
was, but he was forbidden to write it. He said, "BUT
the SEVENTH ANGEL, in the days of his sounding,
the SEVEN MYSTERIES of the SEVEN THUNDERS would be REVEALED."
And the SEVENTH angel is a “MESSENGER” of the SEVENTH church age. See?”QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS.title JEFF.IN COD 64-0830E
3. When the THIRD THUNDER was revealed, it revealed a BLACK HORSE
RIDER (symbol). That was the THIRD mystery-truth
of the SEALED VISION of DANIEL and JOHN. When the thunder (mystery-truth)
was explained to us by the prophet. It revealed the abuses, creeds and dogmas
of the Catholic Church when they charged for novenas, taught about purgatory,
and made a commodity out of salvation by paying money to bring out the dead
from Purgatory (a non_Biblical teaching by the Roman Church). The revelation
showed us that it was counteracted by God's higher standard – God's third
BEAST- the FACE OF A MAN – them REFORMERS from Luther, Wesley, Knox, Calvin,
Moody, all counteracting the black forces of the Catholic Church, reforming
the church, to bring the Bride into justification and sanctification.
4. When the FOURTH THUNDER was revealed, it revealed a PALE HORSE RIDER (symbol).
That was the fourth mystery-truth of the SEALED VISION of
DANIEL and JOHN. Death and Hell (it's eternal separation from God to receive
the Mark of this Beast) followed it. This pale horse rider which rode along
with the ministry of the end-time prophet was again counteracted by God's
higher standard – God's fourth BEAST, the FLYING EAGLE – the prophetic age,
time for soaring the deeper mysteries of God, a time for the real outpouring
of the Holy Ghost… which is the end of the Gentile dispensation, the Laodecian
Age.
5. When the FIFTH THUNDER was revealed while the SEAL was broken from
it, it revealed the
SOULS UNDER THE ALTAR (symbol)– When the mystery-truth of it was revealed, it
has been made clear to us that these were the Jews that died under Hitler,
Stalin, Mussolini, crying for vengeance against the cruel people of
this earth who put them in gas chambers and firing lines. But it was promised
unto them to wait for a little while until their 144,000 Jewish brothers that
need to die and be purged in the tribulation period are called out to the Feast
of Atonement by Moses and Elijah of Revelation 11. Then God shall avenge their
blood upon their enemies.
6. When the SIXTH THUNDER was revealed, it revealed a TRIBULATION
PERIOD. It revealed Moses and Elijah coming back again
for the
144,000 Jews, the 12,000 remnants from each Israelite tribe.
The sixth thunder will reveal their Joseph again, Jesus, revealing
Himself to His brethren, in nail-scarred hands, while they wail in sackloth with
tears in their eyes, realizing that it was JESUS CHRIST who is their real
Messiah.
7. When the SEVENTH THUNDER was revealed, it revealed a MIGHTY ANGEL coming
down with a BOOK OPEN, and there was silence in heaven for
half an hour, while the SON of MAN ministers here on earth. This
event was
fulfilled in the ministry of Brother Branham, when the constellation of seven
angels came down in Sunset Mountain to reveal the mysteries that were hidden
since the foundation of the world. The Mighty Angel, fulfilling in
the flesh-body of the prophet of God (Hebrews 13:8): Jesus
Christ, the same yesterday, today and forever: manifesting His
first pull, second pull and the third pull ministry through the life
of William Branham.
There was silence in heaven for almost half an hour because Jesus Christ was on earth "appearing" and fulfilling His promise of Luke 17:30, "in the day when the Son of Man is revealed (again). Jesus ministers to His Bride through the life-ministry of His prophet-messenger, and then raptures her Bride at the end of the Church ages and comes back for the 144,000 Jews through the ministry of Moses and Elijah. He then comes physically with His Bride in the Battle of Armageddon after which commences Jesus' Millennial rule of 1,000 years here on earth with His Bride.
Christ came down in these sequence of events of SHOUT, VOICE, TRUMP of 1 Thess 4:16-17) that's why heaven was silent during the opening of the seventh seal. The Theophany of God, the Mighty Angel of the New Covenant, came down to earth in that Arizona Cloud in 1963, to bring the Open Book that He claimed as a Lamb, and call out those names there written therein before the foundation of the world, through the ministry of the seventh angel's Message.
"The seventh seal brings Him back to earth",
these are the words of Brother Branham himself. The seventh
seal ends denominational "time". Time is no more;
there will be no denominations after the seals were opened in 1963. The denominational
ages are over. No one can denominate this Message. Denominationalism
is the Mark of the Beast.
These MYSTERY-TRUTHS (THUNDERS) today are what turns our HEART back
to the FAITH of our Fathers (Malachi 4:5-6). This
is the real SEVEN THUNDER MYSTERY that's still a puzzle to some. But
Brother Branham said it's already written in the Word, for no man can ADD
or take away from the Word, not even the seventh angel himself. Though the
SEVENTH SEAL EVENTS start to happen before the SIXTH SEAL or Tribulation Period,
the church is raptured here in this time while the SIXTH SEAL continues on
to the Jews and to the persecution of the foolish virgins, until the consummation,
the Battle of Armageddon.
The Seventh Thunder mystery which was contained inside the seventh
seal reaches until the end of time. Brother Branham said that the "Seventh
Seal" is the end of all things, the end of the struggling world, then end
of all worldly systems, the END of TIME.
The mystery of the Seventh Seal opened up in 1963 when the Mighty Angel descended in the form of a CLOUD in Arizona bringing that open Book of Redemption to us to call out the Bride of Christ whose names were listed in that Book of Redemption, out of denominationalism. But since "TIME" will only cease after the Millennial Reign, which is still a 1000 years span of time, it follows that the "Seventh Seal" mystery extends from our day till the Gog and Magog war when Satan finally is thrown in the Lake of Fire after being released at the end of the thousand years to deceive the heathens that have populated the earth in the time of the Millennium, just before the White Throne Judgment.
Truly, this Third Pull revelation of the "Seven Thunders" is not open to the understanding of the reading public, but is revealed to the Bride of Jesus Christ alone. Only she has the capacity to "read-between-the-lines" for the rapture is a revelation to her. And only through this "seven thunder revelation" can the Bride today be brought back to the full possession of a rapturing faith, a rapturing condition. Brother Branham prophesied of this day, "And I believe that through those seven thunders will be revealed in the last days in order to get the Bride together for rapturing faith..." (THE.FIRST.SEAL_ JEFF.IN MONDAY_ 63-0318)
I can say that those who deny to believe that these seven thunders are already revealed today through these "mystery-truths" are still "unsure and unstable" in their faith NOT knowing whether they will make it or NOT in the rapture. Some of them are still looking for something to come (a gift, an anointing, a sensation) or for another man (an 8th messenger) who needs to come in the future to bring them rapturing faith which I say is a false hope, not knowing the true substance of the Message.
Revelation 10:7 and the Message made it sure that the mystery should be finished under the ministry of that lone seventh angel, which was fulfilled already in the ministry of William Branham. God said to him, "Now, break the Seals and release all the mysteries to them--to the seventh angel whose message is to reveal all the mysteries of God. The mysteries of God lays in these Seven Seals. See? That's what He said here. All the mysteries lays in these Seven Seals." (THE.BREACH.BETWEEN.THE.SEVEN.CHURCH.AGES.AND.THE.SEVEN.SEALS_ JEFF.IN SUNDAY_ 63-0317E)
Yet some other people are still looking for Brother Branham to rise up again from the dead to preach salvation again to this generation. There is not a single example in the Holy Scriptures where a prophet ever returned to continue his ministry. We must truthfully declare that Brother Branham’s ministry ended with the moment he was taken from earth to glory. He himself made it clear in his sermons where he said, "And when He's finished with me, then I'll trust that He will receive me home in peace."(THE.SEVENTH.SEAL_ JEFF.IN SUNDAY_ 63-0324E) "There is nothing that can hurt me, not a thing, until God's purpose is fulfilled. And when that is fulfilled, I want to go with His purpose. When He's finished, then I am also. When He's finished with me, I'm finished with life." (I.KNOW.MY.REDEEMER.LIVETH_ JEFF.IN SUNDAY_ 58-0406S)
When Brother Branham said, " I will ride this trail again", that was referring to the Spirit of Elijah who will minister to the Jews during the tribulation Period. Elijah's spirit comes five times according to the Bible. He came as (1) Elijah, (2) Elisha, (3) John the Baptist, and (4) William Branham (Malachi 4:5). And when he (Elijah) comes again in the future, it will be his last ride for the Jews according to Revelation 11 (5). The Bride will not go through the Tribulation period; she goes in the rapture. She will not be under the 5th Elijah ministry. it is solely for the Jews. Brother Branham made this clear in his statement below:
"The Spirit of Elijah off of this Gentile church will just continue right on into that Jewish church, go right on in and call Moses with him. Hallelujah. You see it? And he'll preach the same message of Pentecost to those Jews, that they rejected the Messiah. Amen. You see it? It'll be the same Pentecostal message that these Jews will preach right over to them." (THE.SEVENTIETH.WEEK.OF.DANIEL_ JEFF.IN DA 89-141)
I am not looking for Brother Branham to come again and preach for the Gentiles. His ministry is over. His ministry was to forerun the Second Coming of Christ and he has done it perfectly already. Christ is here now in the form of the Holy Ghost in His Bride. Before Brother Branham died, just like John the Baptist exclaimed, he said, "I must decrease, HE (Jesus) must increase." We should be looking for Jesus Christ's coming in flesh now for the Rapture of the Bride, not for another ministry by Brother Branham. "It is once appointed for man to die, and then the judgment", according to the Scriptures.
But when William Branham comes back to earth again, that will be the "body-change" already, the meeting in the air, his presentation of the Bride of this generation to the Great Master who will come in His own corporal body to receive the Bride into that Wedding Supper in heaven; and woe unto those who will be left behind because they did not receive the "Oil", the "Token", the "revelation" by the Holy Spirit, but were placed under the false hope of man, having been lead astray by fear and by deception, never been able to come to the knowledge of the truth. Remember that the New Birth is a revelation of these thunder-mysteris that will bring us rapturing faith. Brother Branham said it: "The new birth is Christ, is a revelation. God has revealed to you this great mystery, and that's the new birth." (CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY.OF.GOD REVEALED_ JEFF IN V-3 N-7 SUNDAY_ 63-0728) "Full obedience to the full Word of God entitles us to the Token." (THE.TOKEN_ BAKF.CA V-22 N-8 SATURDAY_ 64-0208) "The--the thing that's the matter with the Message today is, those who obtain it in their hearts must lay in the presence of the Son to get ripened." (CHRIST.IS.REVEALED.IN.HIS.OWN.WORD_ JEFF.IN V-4 N-10 SUNDAY_ 65-0822M) Rapturing Faith lays in those Messages.
8. THE SEVENTH THUNDER REVEALS THE COMING OF THE LORD (REVELATION 10)
Brother Branham preached the following sermons:
"The Lamb took His Book when the Seventh Seal, just
ready for it to be
opened--the Sixth Seal. Remember, He hid the Seventh Seal from us.
He
wouldn't do it. When the Angel stood day by day telling it, but then
He wouldn't do it on that one. Said, "There's silence in heaven."
No
one knew. It was the coming of the Lord."
(SOULS.IN.PRISON.NOW JEFF.IN. V-2 N-22 63-1110M)
THE.FEAST.OF.THE.TRUMPETS_
JEFF.IN V-3 N-16 SUNDAY_ 64-0719M
264 Look,
I want to say one more thing. Closely now; don't miss this. How striking!
From the seventh angel's (messenger
of the Seventh Seal) Message in Revelation
10, was the seventh
seal."
"WHAT IT IS, is a "REVELATION" on what has been MISSED BACK there, to bring to... It's ALREADY WROTE here; it's IN HERE; it's to REVEAL what's ALREADY's BEEN WRITTEN (See?), 'cause you can't ADD one thing to It or take one word from It."(FEAST.OF.THE.TRUMPETS.title JEFF.IN V-3 N-16 64-0719M)
From the given quotes above, it follows that the Seventh Seal was the Coming of the Lord, and Revelation 10 was that Seventh Seal. Nothing can be added to the Bible. The mystery of the Seventh Seal is already wrote in the Bible (Revelation 10 events) but was missed back there.
REVELATION 10:1-7 states- (This scripture is already history for the end-time believers)
1 And I saw another MIGHTY ANGEL come down from heaven, clothed
with a cloud: and a rainbow [was] upon his head, and his face [was]
as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:
2 And he had in his hand a little BOOK OPEN: and
he set his
right foot upon the sea, and [his] left [foot] on the earth,
3 And cried with a loud voice, as [when] a LION roareth: and
when he had cried, SEVEN THUNDERS uttered their
voices.
4 And when the SEVEN THUNDERS had uttered their
voices, I was
about to write: and I heard a VOICE from heaven saying unto me, SEAL
UP those things which the SEVEN THUNDERS uttered, and write them not.
5 And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the
earth lifted up his hand to heaven,
6 And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created
heaven, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the
things that therein are, and the sea, and the things which are
therein, that there should be TIME NO LONGER:
7 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.***
***"FINISHED" means "completed, perfected, and sealed". Nothing can be added, after that ministry of that VOICE of the SEVENTH ANGEL.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
3 THINGS HAPPEN DURING THE "COMING OF THE LORD":
1.SHOUT –2.VOICE – 3.TRUMP
A SHOUT is the"MESSAGE-OF-THE-HOUR",
it's the End-Time Message : "Come out from Babylon!" Out of denominationalism,
out of man-made systems, and come into CHRIST, the Revealed Word of the Hour!
A VOICE is the "VOICE of RESURRECTION", the VOICE
of Christ through the seventh angels' VOICE that will culminate in a BODY-CHANGE.
And a TRUMP is the "GATHERING for a FEAST", a WEDDING
FEAST in HEAVEN, of the Heavenly Bridegroom and His earthly Bride.
This is what's happening nowadays but is still hid to the public. Apostle Paul talks about it in the succeeding Scriptures:
1st Thessalonians 4:16-17::
For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with
a shout,
with the voice of the archangel,
and with the trump of God:
and the dead in Christ shall rise first:
Then we which are alive [and] remain shall be caught
up together with
them in the clouds, to meet the Lord in the air.
1st Corinthians 15:51-52
Behold, I shew you a mystery; We shall
not all sleep, but we shall all be changed, In a moment,
in the twinkling of an eye, at the last trump:
for the trumpet shall sound, and
the dead shall be raised incorruptible, and we shall be changed.
For this corruptible must put on incorruption,
and this mortal [must] put on immortality.
