QUESTION:
When will the revelation of the Seven Thunders be known?
ANSWER:
“Is it time? Is the minist-… the mystery all finished? Has the sounding all over? Is that really them SEVEN THUNDERS fixing to utter out something that the little group that He's gathered together will receive a rapturing faith to go in the rapture when He comes; for we'll be changed as quick as those Angels come: “in a moment, in the twinkling of an eye, and shall be caught up together with those that is asleep to meet the Lord in the air.” [Is This The Sign Of The End, Sir? 62-1230E]
“Every one of you, cleanse all your heart. Lay aside everything, every weight. Keep it out of your way. Don't let nothing bother you. Don't be scared. There's nothing to be scared about. If Jesus is coming, it's a very--it's a moment that the whole world has groaned and cried for. If it's something breaking forth now, for a--a new coming--a new coming of a new gift or something, it'll be wonderful. If it's coming time that the revelation of the SEVEN THUNDERS will be revealed to the church, how to go, I don't know. I have just stated what I saw. Oh, my, what a time. It's serious and solemn thinking. And if it would be time for me to go, I'm Your, Lord--I am Yours. When You're finished, come, Lord Jesus. Wherever it might be, or what time it may be, I am His. I don't say I desire to depart; I don't. I've got a family to raise; I got the Gospel to preach, but that's according to His will, not mine. That's His will. I don't know. I'm just stating to you what if. What is, God will bring it to pass. But I tell you what I saw and what happened. What it meant, I don't know; but, sirs, could this be the end?” [Is This The Sign Of The End, Sir? 62-1230E]
“And SEVEN THUNDERS right in the revelation here of Jesus Christ, is some mystery. Does not the Bible say that this is the revelation of Jesus Christ? Why, there's some hidden mystery then of it. What is it? The SEVEN THUNDERS have it. For John was just about to write, and a VOICE came down from heaven, said, "Don't write it. But seal it. Seal it up. Put it on the backside of the Book." It's got to be revealed. It's the mysteries. Now, we solved out these things by the Holy Spirit. It's told us it wasn't apples; it was sexual. Told us these things... There's not no-one able to stand before it. I never seen a preacher in my life agreed with it. But I've asked them.” [Is This The Sign Of The End, Sir? 62-1230E]
“What we've seen happen should put every soul in action. It should make a church that would make a revival here in Phoenix, that people would be flying in from Europe, to see what taken place. They'd say, "There's a place in Arizona called the Maricopa Valley, a city called Phoenix. There is something broke out there until the SEVEN THUNDERS of Revelations 10, that's not even wrote in the Bible, is being manifested." The power of God, the end-time is here. The angel has gathered up the loose ends and we're here. Amen. "He was about to write those THUNDERS, and He said, 'Don't write them. Seal them up.'" "And at that day of the sounding of this last, seventh angel," seventh church age, the Laodicean church age, "the mystery of God," all about God, how that God is not a big bunch of gods, but one God, "and all these other things should all be finished in that time." The great battles, back before, had got the loose ends hanging out. It ought to be all wrapped up together, in this last age. Said, "Then when that sounds, an Angel come down and said, 'Time shall be no more. I'll swear by Him that lives forever and ever, time shall be no more.'" Oh, we are here, brother, sister. We're at the time. Let's let the Holy Spirit influence us to the Word of God. Let's let God do the influencing in our hearts, and not be influenced by others. See? This ought to put us in action with reverence and humility, the Pillar of Fire vindicated among us again, like it was, bringing the children of Israel. Signs of His Coming is at hand. Oh, my! The Word, by the Word being fulfilled, we see the promise, "The last days, He would pour out His Spirit.” [Influence 63-0112]
“And then we notice that He put His... had a rainbow over His head and raised up His hand and swore by Him that lives for ever and ever, that time should be no more (when these SEVEN VOICES uttered, SEVEN THUNDERS uttered their voices). And He told them, "Don't write, but seal It." And we found it was on the backside
of the Book. "But when the seventh angel had finished his Message, his prophesying of the day, then the mystery of God should be finished," everybody knows the Bible says that"The mystery of God, what God is, Who God is, and all about the way into the baptism and things, that should all be settled in that day.” [The Evening Messenger 63-0116]
“We're in teaching, and you can realize what a great strain it is on me, see, because if I teach anything wrong, I'm going to have to answer for it. See? And so I must not take what anyone says; I must--it must be inspired. And I believe that the seven Angels who's holds these SEVEN THUNDERS will grant it.” [God Hiding Himself In Simplicity 63-0317M]
“Why don't believers believe the simple signs of His coming? They're expecting the--a--all this things that's spoke of by the Scripture, and--and the moon's going to go down in the middle of--the sun in the middle of the day, and there's going to be all kinds of things. Oh, if we just had... I got the notes wrote here on it, see, to show what them things are, and we'll get it on the breaking of these Seals this week anyhow. See, see? There it is, just where it's already passed and you didn't know it. See? See if it is. If the Angel of the Lord will break them Seals forth to us! Remember, it's sealed with them SEVEN MYSTERIOUS THUNDERS.” [God Hiding Himself In Simplicity 63-0317M]
“This seven-sealed Book is revealed at the time of the SEVEN THUNDERS of Revelations 10. If you're marking it down... Let's turn to Revelations 10 just a moment, so you'll get an understanding before we get into it. Now, this is at the end time, for listen. “...I saw another mighty Angel come down from Heaven, clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow... upon His head,...” If you notice that's Christ, see, 'cause He in the Old Testament was called the Angel of the Covenant, and He's directly coming to the Jews now, for the Church is finished. See? All right. “...and his face... as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars of fire:” You remember that Angel in Revelations 1? Same thing. Angel is a messenger, and He's a Messenger to Israel. See? The Church has been raptured, see, now, or fixing to be raptured. He comes for His Church.” [The Breach 63-0317e]
“Here it was closed here, and sealed, and here it's open; it's been opened. Since that time of the sealing we're getting into tonight, now the Book's opened. A little Book in His hand--in His... It was opened. Oh, how... “The sun as pillars...” Wait just a minute, let me start back here reading. “And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea, and his left foot upon the earth, and he cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth:...” We know He is the Lion of the tribe of Juda. Over here He's a Lamb, but here He's a Lion. See? “...and when he had cried, SEVEN THUNDERS uttered their voices.” Now, John was commissioned to write what he saw, so the apostle and prophet picked up his pen to write it. “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. Now, that's what we don't know. That's yet to be revealed; it's not in Holy Script, what them THUNDERS say. “And the angel which I saw stand upon the sea and upon the earth lifted up his hands to heaven, (Now, listen.) “And sware by him that liveth for ever and ever, who created the heavens, and the things that therein are, and the earth, and the things... therein are, and... there should be time no longer:” Watch, here's a verse I want to get to. “But in the day of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he has declared to his servants the prophet.” [The Breach 63-0317e]
“SEVEN SEALS on the Book has the... These SEVEN SEALS has the Book sealed. See? The Book is absolutely sealed. Do you see it? The Book is absolutely a sealed Book until the SEVEN SEALS is broken. It is sealed up with SEVEN SEALS. Now, that's a different from the SEVEN THUNDERS. See? This is SEVEN SEALS on the Book, and the Book will not--the Seals will not be released until the message of the seventh angel. See? So we--we are presuming, but the genuine revelation of God will be made perfect in that sounding and vindicated Truth. Now, that's exactly what the Word said. The mysteries should be finished at that time. And this SEVEN-SEALED BOOK, remember, it was closed here in Revelations the 5th chapter, and in Revelations the 10th chapter it is opened.” [The Breach 63-0317e]
