People ask questions, God answers

uted to God’s Word. “… if they speak not according to this Word,
it is because there is no light in them.” (Isa. 8:20).
Admittedly, there are difficult statements in God’s Word and in
the message as well, statements which we must put into the correct
divine order. For instance, our Lord said back then, “… Ye
shall not have gone over the cities of Israel, till the Son of man be
come …” (Mt. 10:23). He also said, “Verily I say unto you, That
there be some of them that stand here, which shall not taste of
death, till they have seen the Kingdom of God come with power.”
(Mk. 9:1). We have to view such statements in the correct context
according to the plan of Salvation and in their fulfilment.
The law and the prophets were until John (Lk. 16:16), from that
time on the Kingdom of God was being preached. On the Day of
Pentecost it came down with power, as it had been announced
by John the Baptist in Mt. 3:2 and by our Lord in Mt. 4:17: The
Church was born, received spiritual life, and the glorified Saviour
walked in their midst. In Rev. 1 John saw the Son of man
walking in His glory in the midst of His Church, represented by
the seven golden candlesticks.
The Apostle Paul included himself when he said, “Behold, I show
you a mystery: We shall not all sleep, but we shall all be changed.”
(1. Cor. 15:51). We are now expecting the fulfilment thereof. The
Apostle Peter made the declaration about the Scriptures and the
writings of the Apostle Paul, saying that some things are difficult
to comprehend (2. Pet. 3:15-16). No one should dare to explain
or make a doctrine of what Brother Branham said in the hardto-understand
statements. He said, for instance, “And when the
seals are broken and the mystery is revealed, down comes the Angel,
the messenger, Christ, setting His foot upon the land and upon the sea
with the rainbow over His head. Now, remember, this seventh Angel
is on the earth at the time of this coming.” Brother Branham was
on earth when the “Angel of the Covenant” revealed Himself in
the supernatural cloud. Quote: “That great Angel of the Covenant,
that One Who was with Moses in the wilderness, that One Who come
to Paul on the road to Damascus, that same One permitted His picture
to be taken with us; the same One that was in the picture in the Life
