There Are Many Different Thunders Doctrines

There are many different
thunders doctrines
Do these represent a glorious Message or are they
mostly mess?
Let us start with what the Bible says.
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.
REVELATION 10:3-4
What John heard the Thunders say IS NOT WRITTEN
in the Bible?
So these thunders cannot say something that is
written in the Bible yet they must agree with
everything that is WRITTEN in the Bible, all 31.100+
verses.
They cannot contradict the written Scripture.
1 And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on
the throne a book written within and on the
backside, sealed with seven seals.
REVELATION 5:1
2 DIFFERENT THUNDERS DOCTRINES
An unexpected Scripture for a study on the seven
Thunders.
There are mysteries written within the Bible and
mysteries that are not written but somehow hidden
from us. These are described as being on the
backside. As if they are written on the outside back
cover. In other words, they are not written directly
on the pages that are between the covers i.e. inside
the Bible.
The written mysteries are sealed up by the seven
Seals that are written in Revelation Chapter 6.
The unwritten mysteries are sealed up by seven
seals that are referred to in Revelation Chapter 10
verses 3-4 but whose content John was told not to
write. These seven unwritten seals on the backside
of the Book are the seven Thunders.
WHAT ARE UNWRITTEN MYSTERIES?
When is the second Coming of Jesus?
36 But of that day and hour KNOWETH NO MAN, no,
not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.
Matthew 24:36
So if you think you know, you've got it wrong.
What is the new name that Jesus has when He
returns in Revelation Chapter 19?
12 His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his
head were many crowns; and HE HAD A NAME
WRITTEN, THAT NO MAN KNEW, but he himself.
Revelation 19:12
DIFFERENT THUNDERS DOCTRINES 3
Once again, NO ONE KNOWS. If you know the new
name, you have got it wrong.
The time of His Coming and His new name are
not written in the Bible so searching the written
pages will not help. We simply do not know these
mysteries.
What does the seventh seal reveal in Revelation
Chapter 8 verse 1?
1 And when he had opened the seventh seal, there
was silence in heaven about the space of half an
hour.
Revelation 8:1
Complete silence. Try as hard as you like. You cannot
interpret that. This again is an unwritten mystery.
So the unwritten seven Thunders seal up these
unwritten mysteries.
29 THE SECRET THINGS belong unto the LORD our
God: but THOSE THINGS WHICH ARE REVEALED belong
unto us and to our children for ever, that we may
do all the words of this law.
DEUTERONOMY 29:29
GOD REVEALS THE MYSTERIES OF HIS WRITTEN WORD TO
HIS PROPHETS.
The secret things are God's unwritten mysteries.
God alone deals with these matters.
For example, in the Old Testament, God's most
common name was Jehovah. In the New Testament
God became a Man and took on the NEW NAME of
Jesus.
In the Old Testament, the name of Jesus is never
mentioned. In the New Testament, once the NEW NAME
of Jesus had been revealed, the old name Jehovah is
never mentioned again.
Notice, when God took on a new name, the
human name of Jesus, it was not a man or a prophet
who revealed that NEW NAME to Mary and Joseph.
The first Coming of Jesus, WHEN He was to be
born, was not revealed to Mary or Joseph by any
human agency.
The prophet Isaiah revealed that a virgin would
conceive the Messiah. But the key details, WHEN He
would be conceived and what HIS HUMAN NAME would
be were never conveyed by any man or prophet.
Let us consider some quotes made by William
Branham:
75 Now, THE BOOK WAS WRITTEN, but then, remember,
it was sealed with Seven Seals. And these Seven
Seals was not to be opened (REVELATIONS 10) until
the sounding of the last earthly angel on earth,
Revelations 10:7. See? "And in the days of the
sounding of the last angel's Message, seventh
angel, the mystery of God should be finished in
that age." That, and that's the age that we're living
in.
76 We all know we're living in the Laodicea Age.
There will never be another age to it. It can't be.
So, we're living in the Laodicea Age. And these
Seven Seals that's held that Book, is a mystery to
people, should be opened at that day. That's what
He promised. Now, IT WON'T BE NOTHING OUTSIDE THE
WORD, because you can't add to the Word or take
from the Word. IT'S GOT TO REMAIN ALWAYS THE WORD.
BUT THE REVELATION IS TO REVEAL THE TRUTH OF IT, WHAT IT
IS, TO MAKE IT FIT WITH THE REST THE SCRIPTURE. And then
God vindicates that to be the Truth. See?

THE RAPTURE, SATURDAY 04/12/65
83 I ALWAYS THOUGHT it was sealed on the back of the

Book and it'd be something wasn't wrote in the
Book, but it turned out that it was made known
that He cannot do that. IT ISN'T SOMETHING THAT'S
WRITTEN IN THE BOOK... IT'S SOMETHING THAT'S BEEN HID IN
THE BOOK.
SPIRITUAL FOOD IN DUE SEASON, Sunday 18/07/65E
When there is no Bible evidence, man's fertile
imagination knows no restraints. It is a bottomless
pit out of which pours the obscuring smoke of
personal opinions and endless speculations. We end
up with peoples' interpretations of quotes instead of
linking Scripture with Scripture.
1 And the fifth angel sounded, and I saw a star
fall from heaven unto the earth: and to him was
given the key of the bottomless pit.
2 And he opened the bottomless pit; and there
arose a smoke out of the pit, as the smoke of a
great furnace; and the sun and the air were
darkened by reason of the smoke of the pit.
REVELATION 9:1-2
A new pope is elected with smoke. But this is not a
good symbol. Human imagination is a disaster.
All the different Thunders versions are built
around a core belief that "The Seven Thunders have
uttered".
NOWHERE DOES BRO BRANHAM MAKE THIS
STATEMENT.
The Thunders doctrines are thus built on THIS

MISSING QUOTE.
Evolution is built on the MISSING LINK. The Big Bang

theory of creation is built on the missing dark
matter and the missing dark energy.
Thus essentially, the Thunders doctrines are the
interpretations or opinions of people as they try to
make Bro Branham say something that he never
said.
296-5 {122} - They had false Christ’s before Jesus'
time. See? They always do that. It's SATAN RUNNING
OUT A COUNTERFEIT to upset the minds and the faith
of the people before the thing actually happens.
That's all. Didn't Gamaliel say the same thing to
the Jews that day? Said, "Wasn't there a man
raised up and professed to be this, and he took
four hundred out in the wilderness, they
perished," and so forth.
THE FOURTH SEAL, THURSDAY 21 MARCH 1963
Before something happens, there must be wrong
opinions about it to see if you will follow man-made
ideas. This is to test your attitude: do you prefer
clever interpretations or do you prefer Scripture.
183-1 {40} But you know all those things are only a
forerunning of the real thing that is to COME TO
THROW THE PEOPLE OFF.
THE SECOND SEAL, Tuesday 19 March 1963
94 But now, before He comes, there will be quite a

bit of confusion, because SATAN IS GOING TO THROW
OUT EVERY COUNTERFEIT that he can, see, TO BLOCK
THE REAL THING.
JESUS CHRIST, THE SAME YESTERDAY TODAY AND FOREVER,
04/06/63
The false messiahs came on the scene before
Jesus did. The Thunders "interpretations" must
come on the scene before the Thunders utter.
8 ...Nevertheless when the Son of man cometh,
shall he find faith on the earth?
LUKE 18:8
17 So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing

by the word of God.
ROMANS 10:17
When Jesus returns He will not find much Bible
believing faith.
People today either ignores brother Branham's
teachings or else manipulates some chosen quotes into a
clever speculation. We are not saved by being clever.
Let us attempt to get answers for a few basic
questions:
QUESTION 1: Can you show where Daniel saw your
Thunders doctrine?
QUESTION 2: Did the early church believe these
Thunders doctrines?
QUESTION 3: What was the single thunder that uttered
in Revelation Chapter 6?
QUESTION 4: Did the Thunders utter before or during
Brother Branham's ministry, or will they utter in the
future?
QUESTION 5: What is the link between the 7 Thunders
and the 7 Seals?
QUESTION 6: Did Brother Branham reveal what the
Thunders said?
QUESTION 7: Did Brother Branham reveal the purpose of
the Thunders?
What do we really know about the Thunders if we
ignore imaginative guesswork?
Our safety lies in linking up all the Scriptures on a
topic that are scattered throughout the Bible.
13 But the word of the LORD was unto them
precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line
upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a
little; that they might go, and fall backward,
and be broken, and snared, and taken.
ISAIAH 28:13
You cannot run a false doctrine through the Bible.
Eventually you will reach a Scripture that
contradicts the doctrine.
20 To the law and to the testimony: if they speak
not according to this word, it is because there is
no light in them.
ISAIAH 28:20
Disagree with Scripture and you are in darkness.
QUESTION 1: CAN YOU SHOW WHERE DANIEL SAW
YOUR THUNDERS DOCTRINE?
E-42 Now, he saw the Book sealed on seven seals.

And when the... DANIEL SAW THE SAME, AND WHEN
THE THUNDERS UTTERED THEIR VOICES HE SAID, "DON'T
WRITE." What that was in the Scripture, but it'd be
revealed in the last days. We're at the time. We're
at Kadesh right now.
FAITH, 13 DECEMBER 1953
39 AS DANIEL HEARD THE SEVEN THUNDERS AND FORBIDDEN;

and John heard the voices, and this Book was
sealed, and THE BACK OF THE BOOK WAS SEALED WITH SEVEN
SEALS; but in the days OF THESE SEALS TO BE OPENED, the
mystery of God would be finished. In other words,
God would be known to His church, not in three
people, but as ONE PERSON. THE MYSTERY OF GOD WOULD BE
REVEALED, and when that was completely revealed,
then the seven mysteries would open to the

church; because in there, the church would be
living under the inspiration of the Holy Spirit, Him
moving in and out and showing His signs of being
alive and among us, living among us, and we're
then worshipping the living Christ that's among us.
THE EPHESIANS CHURCH AGE, MONDAY 05/12/1960
The back of the Book (the UNWRITTEN mysteries)
was sealed with seven (unwritten) Seals which are
the seven unwritten Thunders.
John heard them but never wrote what they said.
Then there are seven WRITTEN Seals that are written
in Revelation 6. These are to be opened by the
revelation of the seventh messenger or angel.
SO THERE ARE TWO SETS OF SEVEN SEALS. The written
Seals to be revealed and the unwritten Seals (the
Thunders) which will remain a mystery until the
dead rise in the resurrection!
Then the first age saints, and ourselves, will both
hear them together.
WE MUST ALWAYS BE IN AGREEMENT WITH THE FIRST CHURCH
AGE SAINTS.
Daniel saw and heard the Thunders. What did he

say they were?
What did he say they said?
Your thunder theory must line up with what
Daniel said about the Thunders.
"The back of the Book" means it was not written
in the Book but is somehow hidden in the Book.
"The back of the Book" also means that it only
happens after the relevant events that are written in
the Book have been completed.
QUESTION 2: DID THE EARLY CHURCH BELIEVE THESE
THUNDERS DOCTRINES?
Did Paul and the early church preach your version
of the thunders?
The only thing we get from early church is what
John said in Revelation 10.
This is all that the early church knew about the
Thunders.
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.
REVELATION 10:3-4
339-1 REVELATION 10:7
...He will be God's mouthpiece and HE, AS IT IS
DECLARED IN MALACHI 4:6, WILL TURN THE HEARTS OF THE
CHILDREN BACK TO THE FATHERS. He will bring back the
elect of the last day and they will hear a vindicated
prophet GIVE THE EXACT TRUTH AS IT WAS WITH PAUL. HE
WILL RESTORE THE TRUTH AS THEY HAD IT . And those elect
with him in that day will be the ones who truly

manifest the Lord and be His Body and be His
voice and perform His works. Hallelujah! Do you
see it?
THE LAODICEAN CHURCH AGE CHURCH AGE BOOK CHAPTER 9
We must be restored to the same truth that the first age
church had.
They never had a seven thunders doctrine.
252-1 {176} Now, notice, now, and here we are at
the end time. And spiritual Eve, just as nat —as
Hebrew Eve was promised... The Hebrew bride
was promised the Word to return, and the
spiritual bride from Pentecost, when she fell at
Nicaea, then she's promised in the last days that
the Word will come again. Now, you say...Then...
If you want another Scripture, take over here,
Revelations 10. And said, In the hour, the time of
the — the last angel, THE SEVENTH ANGEL, seventh
messenger, begins to sound, the mystery of God
is finished. (See?). THE RESTORATION BACK TO THE WORD!
The Bible said that this messenger of the last
days would be—RESTORE THEM BACK TO THE ORIGINAL
FAITH AGAIN, BACK TO THE FAITH OF THE FATHERS. BUT YOU
THINK THEY RECEIVE IT? Last days He would
NO, SIR!
restore the original Word again, as He said in

Malachi 4, but—that—that she had forfeited.
"THE THIRD SEAL", WEDNESDAY 20 MARCH 1963
We are not to receive a new Message with new
thunders doctrines.
We are to be restored back to what the early
church believed.
Will we receive the same WRITTEN TRUTH that the
early church had?
We do not want to stay with the basics of the first
church age. We prefer speculating over the
unwritten mysteries of the thunders, the seventh
seal, the new name of God, when He is coming etc.
Thus we are losing our focus of what is written.
REVEALING THE WRITTEN MYSTERIES of the Word is the
MESSAGE FOR OUR DAY.
130 Now that's the question. Here is where I

wanted to get to, in Revelations 10. We'll get to it
in a few minutes, and another Scripture verse. He
said, "In the days of the Message of the seventh
angel, the mystery of God ought to be finished."
Here is the question, is, if you follow in that line
in this hour, will it be finished? "Will I find the
Faith?" Will Malachi 4 be fulfilled in this time,
"Restore the Faith of the children, back to the
Faith of the fathers, the original, the Word"? See?
"THE ANNOINTED ONES AT THE END TIME", 25/07/65
God does not want our new clever theories. He
wants us to believe what the first church believed.
381-3 {394} And I set there, and then a voice said,
"You've been gathered to your people like Jacob
was gathered to his people."
...
And I said, "Does every leader have to be judged
like that?"
Said, Yes!
I said, "WHAT ABOUT PAUL?"
He said, "He will have to be judged with his."
"WELL," I SAID, "IF HIS GROUP GOES IN, SO WILL MINE, 'CAUSE
I'VE PREACHED EXACTLY THE SAME WORD." I said, "Where
he baptized in Jesus' Name, I did too. I
preached..."
AND THE MILLIONS SCREAMED OUT, ALL AT ONCE, SAID, "WE'RE
RESTING ON THAT."
THE FIFTH SEAL, FRIDAY 22 MARCH 1963

In the Judgment we will be judged by how well we
agreed with Paul and the early church. Not by how
clever our thunders theories were.
83-1 "Thou hast tried them that say they are
apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars."
My, that is a blunt statement. ...
It was the apostles who brought the original Word
to the people. That original Word... Those
Ephesians knew that Word as Paul had taught it.
They were full of the Holy Ghost by the laying on
of Paul's hands. They looked those false apostles
in the eye and said, "YOU ARE NOT SAYING WHAT PAUL
SAID. YOU ARE, THEREFORE, FALSE." Oh, that sets my
heart on fire. Get back to the Word! It is not you

that really tries the apostle, and prophet and
teacher; IT IS THE WORD THAT TRIES THEM.
One of these days there is going to come a prophet
to the Laodicean Church Age and you will know if
he is the real one sent from God or not. Yes you
will, for if he is of God HE WILL BE IN THAT WORD
EXACTLY AS GOD GAVE IT TO PAUL. HE WON’T DEVIATE
FROM THAT WORD FOR A MOMENT, NOT BY ONE IOTA.
In that last age, when there will be MANY FALSE
PROPHETS appearing, watch and see how they keep
telling you THAT IF YOU DON'T BELIEVE THEM AND WHAT THEY
SAY, YOU WILL BE LOST; but when that LAST DAY
PROPHET comes on the scene, if he is truly that

prophet, he will be crying out, "GET BACK TO THE
WORD OR YOU ARE LOST." HE WON'T BUILD ON A PRIVATE
REVELATION OR INTERPRETATION, BUT ON THE WORD. Amen
and Amen!
EPHESIANS CHURCH AGE CHURCH AGE BOOK CHAPTER 3
From the Message quotes we learned about
baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. We
are now able to prove that doctrine from Scripture
without referring to the quotes.
CAN YOU PROVE YOUR THUNDERS DOCTRINE FROM SCRIPTURE
WITHOUT REFERRING TO ANY QUOTES?
We are waiting for the harvest. The seed that is

reaped in the seventh church age is identical to the
seed that was planted in the first church age.
If the first church never preached (a) thunders
doctrine, we must not either. Otherwise we are
different to them. We are not supposed to be better
or cleverer than them. We are supposed to be turned
back to them, and thus believe exactly what they
believed.
We must not be different to them.
QUESTION 3: WHAT WAS THE SINGLE THUNDER THAT UTTERED
IN REVELATION CHAPTER 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.
REVELATION 6:1
So there was ONE THUNDER WHEN the first Seal
opened.
What was this Thunder? When does it utter?
How is it linked to the 7 Thunders of Revelation
Chapter 10?
557-3 245 ...What happens is that those seven thunders
that he heard thunder and was forbidden to write, that's
what THE MYSTERY IS LAYING BEHIND THOSE SEVEN
CONSECUTIVE THUNDERS rolling out.
557-5 249 Now, why? Let us prove it. Why? It IS THE
SECRET THAT NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT. ...
THE SEVENTH SEAL", EVENING 24 MARCH 1963
There are seven consecutive thunders in
Revelation 10.
They hold a secret that no-one knows about.
Then there is another single thunder in
Revelation 6 verse 1, when the first Seal opened.
What is it?
What do we know about this single thunder?
206 Dear God, in this solemn moment, it's going
to be a time like this when THERE REALLY WILL BE A CLAP
OF THUNDER SOMEDAY, and the Son of God shall
descend from the heavens with a shout, with the

voice of the Archangel, and the trump of God, the
dead in Christ shall rise.
I HAVE HEARD BUT NOW I SEE 27/11/1965E
This is November 1965, long after he revealed the
Seals, and he speaks of a single thunder that is still
in the future. A single clap of thunder that is; linked
to the resurrection.
178 One day, THERE WILL COME; A BLAST FROM HEAVEN,
"And the dead in Christ shall rise first."
"THE RAPTURE", SATURDAY 04 DECEMBER 1965
Twice in one week, just before he died, he refers
to this single mysterious thunder that is still to
come.
December is the month that he died. He was still
looking forward to that single thunder that would
announce the resurrection.
225-6 {350} God, help our unbelief. Take it away
from us, Lord. We want to receive rupturing
grace. WE WANT TO BE ABLE WHEN THAT MYSTERIOUS
THUNDER THUNDERS OUT YONDER, AND THE CHURCH IS TAKEN
UP, we want to be ready to receive it, Lord.
"THE SECOND SEAL", TUESDAY 19/03/1963E
One thunder sometime in the future when the
church is taken up! We have no real understanding
of what this thunder means. But it obviously will
happen so we must keep looking forward to that
great mysterious event.
44-3 Now, is it plain? When the first SEAL WAS
OPENED, THE SEALS THAT WAS INSIDE THE BOOK , these
mysteries that was sounded forth: justification,

sanctification, Roman Catholic Church,
Protestants, and when all their little battles and
things left these loose ends in the Word of God,
the seventh angel comes on and gathers them all
up and explains them. See? AND THEN HE FINISHES;
SEVEN THUNDERS UTTER OUT. John started to write. He
said, "Don't write it, but seal it." And the FIRST SEAL
WAS OPENED OF THE SEALS ON THE INSIDE OF THE BOOK; IT
OPENED WITH A THUNDER .
IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END, SIR? 30/12/1962E
The single Thunder is linked to the opening of the
first Seal.
Think carefully.
The front cover of the Seals book says "The
Revelation of the Seven Seals".
187-2 {73} Now, watch this now. "If God does not
DO NOTHING," SAID AMOS, "UNTIL FIRST HE REVEALS IT TO HIS
SERVANTS THE PROPHETS," and then we see what He's
doing, it must be THAT HE'S FIXING TO DO SOMETHING,

WHAT HE'S REVEALING NOW. God is fixing to move on
the scene in judgment; I believe. He's fixing to do

something. And one thing again that testifies:
surely we are in the last day; we're at the end of
the age, the Laodicea Church Age. Now, for these
things were to be revealed only at the last day.
"THE SECOND SEAL", TUESDAY 19 March 1963
Do not confuse the REVELATION of the opening of the
Seals with THE ACTUAL OPENING which happens in
Revelation Chapter 6 which is after the church gets
caught up to heaven in Revelation Chapter 4.
1 AFTER THIS I looked, and, behold, a door was
opened in heaven: and the first voice which I
heard was as it were of a trumpet talking with
me; which said, COME UP HITHER, and I will shew
thee things which must be hereafter.
2 And immediately I was in the spirit: and,
behold, a throne was set in heaven, and one sat
on the throne.
REVELATION 4:1-2
71 Then we find out here, AFTER THESE THINGS, he

heard a voice was speaking to him, that... What
was it? THE SPIRIT LEFT THE EARTH. "AFTER THESE
THINGS;" starts out the 1st verse (of chapter 4).
After this I looked, and, behold, a door was
opened in heaven... Revelation 4:1, after the
church is gone, then a--a Door was opened. And
we've went through all of that and found that that
was Christ was the Door. And the same voice that
was walking in the midst of the seven golden
candlesticks also was the same voice he heard in
heaven, saying, "COME UP HITHER." JOHN WENT UP. IT
REPRESENTED THE CHURCH GOING IN THE RAPTURE.
"REVELATION, CHAPTER FOUR", PART 3, 08/01/1961
92 AFTER THESE THINGS ...after he had seen the church

age ...AFTER HE HAD SEEN ALL THE CHURCH AGES GO THROUGH
114 The church age was through; showed His
Spirit was finished here.
121 "I'll show you what's going to be after this,
after the church ages"
125 ...John BEING TAKEN UP IMMEDIATELY AFTER THE CHURCH
AGE; WAS A TYPE OF THE RAPTURE CHURCH. Immediately
after the church age is over, this Laodicean church

age, then comes the rapture. The church goes up
like John did into the presence of God.
"REVELATION CHAPTER FOUR", PART 1, 31/12/1960
37 The first three chapters of the Book of

Revelations reveal all the happenings unto the
Church. Then, from the 3rd chapter unto the 19th
chapter of Revelation, there is no more seen of the
Church. THE CHURCH GOES UP AT THE 4TH CHAPTER OF
REVELATIONS and returns back at the 19th chapter of
Revelations,
"THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS", 19 JULY 1964
167 Now, let's get back to the verse: And a...

behold, a throne was set in heaven... (2nd verse)...
and one set on it. Note "the throne." He set on the
throne. HE WASN'T NO MORE BACK DOWN IN THE
CANDLESTICKS NOW, ON EARTH. THE RAPTURE HAD DONE COME .
He was in glory, setting on His throne. I want you
to notice on down, we'll find even IN THE 5TH
CHAPTER; it was not the throne of mercy. It wasn't a
throne of mercy any more; it was the throne of

judgment. It wasn't a throne of grace. It's a throne
of judgment because fire and lightning and
thunders issued forth from it; no more; MERCY'S
OVER, THE CHURCH AGE WAS FINISHED. "He that's filthy is
filthy still; he that's righteous is righteous still; he

that's holy is holy still," no more a throne of
mercy.
"REVELATION CHAPTER FOUR", PART 1, 31/12/1960
70-5 {23} Now, now, we're going to turn to the 5th

chapter. Now, this is not the Seven Seals. It is the
"Breach between the Church Ages and the Seven
Seals." Now, there is also a 6th chapter of... and
there was a 4th chapter, rather, of Revelation, and
in that it kind of REVEALED SOMETHING THAT WOULD TAKE
PLACE AFTER THE CHURCH GOING UP: that the Church goes
up on the 3rd chapter of Revelations and does not

return until the 19th chapter of Revelations.
THE BREACH BETWEEN THE 7 CHURCH AGES AND THE 7
SEALS, SUNDAY EVENING 17 MARCH 1963
22 But when John looked he saw only "ONE" upon

the throne. And it was not until REVELATION 5:6-8
(WHICH FOLLOWS REVELATION 4:2-3 IN SEQUENCE OF TIME)
that we see the "Lamb" taking the book from
"HIM" That sat on the throne.
THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST — The Church Age
Book Chapter 1
Thus Revelation chapter 5 happens after chapter 4.
If the Church Ages happen during chapters 2 and 3,
then the church is caught up in chapter 4 at the end
of the Church Ages. Thus chapter 5, when the Lamb
takes the Book, only happens after the church is
caught up to heaven. Then the seven Seals open
after that in chapter 6. The actual events in chapter
5 and chapter 6 occur in heaven.
6 And I beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the throne
and of the four beasts, and in the midst of the
elders, stood a Lamb as it had been slain, having
seven horns and seven eyes, which are the seven
Spirits of God sent forth into all the earth.
7 And he came and took the book out of the right
hand of him that sat upon the throne.
8 And when he had taken the book, the four
beasts and four and twenty elders fell down
before the Lamb, having every one of them
harps, and golden vials full of odors, which are
the prayers of saints.
9 And they sung a new song, saying, Thou art
worthy to take the book, and to open the seals
thereof: for thou wast slain, and HAST REDEEMED US
TO GOD BY THY BLOOD OUT OF EVERY KINDRED, AND
TONGUE, AND PEOPLE, AND NATION;
10 And hast made us unto our God kings and
priests: and we shall reign on the earth.
REVELATION 5:6-10
500-3 {266} 23a IN REVELATIONS VERSE 5 TO 9, who

are these found sing—singing when the Lamb
takes the Book out of the—out of the... takes the
book... Are—Oh, ARE THESE THE RAPTURE SAINTS?
No, Revelations 6...5 and 9; rather no. If you notice,
these are not the saints. He has never claimed His
property yet. See? This is not the saints. If you
notice, they're the elders and the beast, and they
sing.
501-1 270 THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG. There's
something wrong. Now, that's just all there is to it.
There's--there's something's happened. See? There's
something that went wrong somewhere. Everybody:
feeling all right? There's no—there's no sickness or
nothing?
[A man in the congregation requests that Brother
Branham read Revelation 5:9 again—Ed.].
And when he had... the book, the four beasts and the
four and twenty elders fell down before the Lamb,
having every one of them harps, and golden vials full
of odours, which are the prayers of the saints.
And they sang a new song, saying, Thou art worthy to
take the book, and to open the seal thereof: for THOU
HAS—WAST SLAIN... (AND HERE IT IS. HERE IT IS. I WAS
WRONG ON THAT. See?)... Thou has redeemed us to God
by the blood of every kindred....
501-2 271 THAT'S RIGHT. Now, what do you think
about that? Oh, if the Presence of the Holy Ghost isn't
here, what is? He wouldn't let... See, I only read the
first part of that verse. See, it's just—it's just a—or
something wrote here, and I was trying to get through,
looking at that clock. But you see Him stop me on
that? Glory! I never read the other part of that. See, I
got here: "and..." Look here. "And they--and they sang
a new song," and I stopped. See? But look here, "the
song they sang, saying, You have redeemed us out of
every kindred, tongue, and nation." SURE, THAT'S THEM.
My, oh, my, oh, my! See it?
...and I got something yet this afternoon I've got to find
from God. But He was so determined that I wouldn't
make that error that He called me back to read the rest
of that verse.
502-2 {274} I just... It just felt like something just
rolled over me there and said, "Go back; go back."
And I thought, "Go back, what? Stop right now and
start praying for the sick? What—what is it? What
have I done?" And just as I started to reach for that,
somebody said, "Read the verse over again." I read it
over, and there at the bottom of this question, there it
was (See?) REVELATIONS 6! See, I read the first; it does
sound like it at the first (See?), "And they sang a new
song..." But down here, see what it was? The next,
coming on down, "has redeemed us." SURE IT WAS THE
BRIDE, THE RAPTURE SAINTS. Could you... And here...!
Certainly, the—the Lamb had the Book in His hand.
He'd done left the Throne of mediatorial grace. See?
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON THE SEALS, 24/03/1963.
A rare event! God corrected him while he was
preaching. Thus this point is very important. Please
note - IT IS THE BRIDE WHO SINGS AROUND THE THRONE IN
REVELATION CHAPTER 5 THAT THEY HAVE BEEN REDEEMED
FROM EVERY NATION AND TONGUE. The actual opening of
the Seals only happens in the next chapter, which is
after the bride has been caught up to heaven. Then
the seals actually open in Chapter 6.
So when do the Seals actually open? When you
are in heaven and standing around the throne after
being caught up after the resurrection!
164 ...These Trumpets are let loose on the Jews, (don't
you see?) not on the Gentiles. THE GENTILE, WHEN THEM
SEALS WAS OPENED, IS SEALED AWAY; TIME IS ENDED; the
Church is called. .
"THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS", 19/07/1964.
BROTHER BRANHAM WENT BEYOND THE CURTAIN OF TIME
AND CAME BACK WITH A PREVIEW TO REVEAL WHAT HAPPENS
WHEN THESE SEALS WILL OPEN IN THE FUTURE.
THUS WE HAVE A REVELATION (OF THE OPENING) OF THE
SEVEN SEALS.
You can read that on the cover of the seven Seals

book.
The cover says "The REVELATION of the Seven Seals".
Amos 3:7 says that God will DO nothing until He first
REVEALS it to His servants the prophets.
7 Surely the Lord GOD will do nothing, but he

REVEALETH his secret unto his servants the
prophets.
Amos 3:7
God will not do something until He first reveals what
He is going to do.
God cannot open the seven Seals until He first gives us
a revelation of the opening of the seven Seals.
The Seals have to be opened by revelation, which
basically gives us a preview of this future event, before
they actually open in reality.
If brother Branham actually opened the Seals, then
when were they revealed before he opened them?
176 The Seventh Seal hasn't opened yet, you know.
That's His Coming.
THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS, 19 JULY 1964.
But in many places he says that the Seals have
opened.
We have a revelation of the opening of the seven
Seals.
The revelation of the opening of the seventh Seal is
that it opened to reveal that it is the hidden mystery of
Christ's second coming. No one knows this mystery.
576-3 {394} Now, there was some reason that God let
this seven voices be thundered, because it must come
(See?), for the... We find that Christ, the Lamb took
the—the Book in His hand, and HE OPENED THAT
SEVENTH SEAL. BUT YOU SEE, IT'S A HIDDEN MYSTERY. NO
ONE KNOWS IT. But it—it's right along with what He
said: no one would know His coming; they also would
not know about this seven thunder mystery. So you
see, it's connected together!
THE SEVENTH SEAL, EVENING 24/03/63
So we do not know this seventh Seal.
578-2 {407} Now, the Angel was to my left, would
really be the last, or seventh Angel, if we would count
them from left to right, because he was on my left, me
looking to him towards the west, him coming towards
the east would be on the left side, so that would be the
last angel's message: very notable. You remember how
I said he had his--kind of his head back, and his great
sharp wings, and how he flew right to me. Now, THAT
IS THIS SEVENTH SEAL. It's still is a notable thing. And
we are... WE DON'T KNOW WHAT IT IS AS YET, BECAUSE IT'S
NOT PERMITTED TO BE BROKEN.
THE SEVENTH SEAL, EVENING 24/03/63
208 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 is silence in Heaven." No one knew. It was the
Coming of the Lord.
SOULS THAT ARE IN PRISON 10/11/63
347 But, remember, all this time, Noah was in the

ark. The Bride is sealed in with Christ; the last
member has been redeemed. The Sixth Seal has
produced itself. THE SEVENTH SEAL BRINGS HIM BACK
TO EARTH.
SOULS THAT ARE IN PRISON NOW 10/11/63
The seventh seal was preached on the 25 March 1963.
Some believers claim that the seventh seal being
preached was the coming of the Lord.
176 The Seventh Seal hasn't opened yet, you
know. That's His Coming.
THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS, 19/07/64
The seventh seal has not opened, so how could He
have come?
Some claim that the Cloud was the coming of the
Lord, but that was the 28th February 1963.
So which date is the coming of the Lord? The
Cloud date or the preaching of the seventh seal
date?
Now the Parusia believers take the coming of the
Lord to be the Pillar of Fire that appeared above the Ohio
River in 1933.
The photograph of the Pillar of Fire that formed a halo
over Brother Branham's head that was photographed in
Chicago in the 1950s would then also qualify as a coming
of the Lord.
So all these conflicting dates suggest that linking the
coming of the Lord to some past events is rather
pointless!
God will not reveal the great mystery of Christ's
coming until the last minute.
IF YOU BELIEVE THAT ALL THE SEALS HAVE ALREADY
OPENED, LOOK AT THE PROBLEMS YOU WILL HAVE WITH THE
SIXTH SEAL.
433-1 295 ...It's Moses and Elijah, 'cause there's

their ministry reimpersonated again: both men. Oh,
my. Do you see it now? See what the Sixth Seal is? It's
those prophets.
Now, notice. Don't let it choke you, but watch what
opened that Seal: prophets. See? Amen. There you are.
Oh, we're living in the eagle day, brother, head up
among the clouds. THEY OPENED THAT SIXTH SEAL.
They have power to do it. Amen. There's your Sixth
Seal coming open. See?
THE SIXTH SEAL, 23 MARCH 1963
THE TWO JEWISH PROPHETS OPEN UP THE SIXTH SEAL IN THE
TRIBULATION.
When the sixth Seal opens they will cause a
violent disruption of nature.
432-5 {293} ... and have power over the waters to
turn them to blood and to smite the earth with
plagues as oft as they will.
What is it? What can bring these things but the
Word? They can do nature anyway they want to.
Here it is. They're the one who brings on this
Sixth Seal. They uncover and open it up. It's the
power of God to interrupt nature. See, the Sixth
Seal, is completely an interruption of nature.
Do you get it now? There's your Seal. Who does
it? It's the prophets the other side of the rapture.
With the power of God, the Word of God, they just
condemn nature. They can send earthquakes, turn
the moon into blood, the sun can go down or
anything at their command. Amen.
THE SIXTH SEAL, SATURDAY 23 MARCH 1963
The sixth seal will only happen on the other side

of the rapture. Not before.
Two Jewish prophets will bring it to pass.
We gentiles simply have a revelation of it. We
know that the sixth seal refers to the Jews in the
Tribulation. But we do not really know the details of
the Tribulation.
440-8 359 It's TIME FOR THE SIXTH SEAL, PRETTY SOON,
TO BE OPENING UP, and when she does, oh, my. The
end... THE BRIDE HAS DONE GONE FORTH. She's done...
The Queen's done went to take her place. SHE'S
BEING MARRIED NOW TO THE KING, WHILE THIS WAS GOING
ON. And Israel's remnant is sealed and ready to go,
and then nature lets go. Oh, what a time.
The sixth Seal opens when the bride is being
married in heaven.
He is revealing the sixth Seal and says it will open
up pretty soon. Some time in the future.
536-4 {77} Now, the—THE 8TH CHAPTER ONLY REVEALS
THE SCENE OF—THE SCENE OF THE SEVENTH SEAL where
nothing else is revealed. Now, nothing is, not
revealed in the Seventh Seal. Now, has nothing to
do with the 7th chapter of—of Revelation. IT'S THE
REVEALING OF THE SEVENTH SEAL IS PERFECTLY MUTE. And
if I only had time (I'll try a few places.) to show
you all the way back from Genesis this 7th chapter
—this Seventh Seal is—is spoke of. From the very
beginning in Genesis, this seventh—these Seals
moved right up.
Couldn't you remember this morning bringing
these things up? And watch tonight bringing them
up and you find out when it gets to that Seventh
Seal, she cuts off. Just...Jesus Christ is speaking
Himself, told of the end time and when HE GOT—
TOLD ALL SIX SEALS; WHEN HE GOT TO SEVENTH, HE STOPPED.
There it is. See? It's a great thing.
THE SEVENTH SEAL, SUNDAY EVENING 24/03/63
Six Seals were revealed by telling us what their
symbols refer to. But there are no symbols in the
seventh Seal. Thus we have no revelation of the
seventh Seal.
271 Do you believe we're living in the last days
when the Son of man was to be manifested? That
would be all the Word that's gathered up through
Luther, Wesley, Baptist, and all that, and the
Pentecostal, all gathered up to the revelation of
what it's all been. THE SEVENTH ANGEL WAS TO OPEN THE SIX-
SEAL MYSTERY. It's all to be gathered up in the Son of
man, His fullness of time has come to the fullness

of His Word, to manifest the fullness of His Body.
That's the Word, then, that's the spoken Word
made manifest by the Word, reveal the Word.
PROVING HIS WORD, SUNDAY 16 AUGUST 1964
Here brother Branham confirms that his ministry
was to reveal the six written seals not the unwritten
seventh Seal!
142 GREAT SIGNS IN THE HEAVEN ABOVE, ANGELS COMING
IN CONSTELLATION! And scientists looking off at it,
predicted months before it happened. There it was.
There it's in the magazine. Told months before it
happened! SEVEN ANGELS COME DOWN, AND SAID, "THE
COMPLETE REVELATION OF THE SIX-SEAL MYSTERY OF GOD
WOULD BE UNFOLDED." And there it was just exactly like
He said, predicted before it happened.
"INFLUENCE", EVENING 03 AUGUST 1963
The Cloud was photographed by a scientist who
could not explain it because it was too high where
there is insufficient water vapour to form a cloud.
Brother Branham refers to this Cloud as a sign
in the heaven above.
Not the coming of the Lord, but a sign of the
coming of the Lord.
409-2 {124} ...Now, we... I want you to read with
me as you do. Compare Scriptures of this great
event that we will see that this great secret or
mystery that was under the Sixth Seal of the Book
of Redemption.
Now, remember, these are hidden mysteries. And
the Sixth Seals altogether is one great big book,
JUST SIX SCROLLS ROLLED TOGETHER; AND IT UNWINDS THE
WHOLE BOOK OF REDEMPTION. That's how the whole
earth was redeemed.
The whole Book of Redemption is revealed by the
six written Seals.
We are saved by what is written in the Word.
Brother Branham had to reveal the written
mysteries to prepare us for the Coming of the Lord.
Will revealing the mystery of the six written Seals
be enough?
246 Pentecost feast finishes at the period of the
Seventh Trumpet, for the next is the Coming of...
The Seventh Seal, for the next is the mystery of
the Coming of Christ, and, also, the Trumpet is
sound for the Jews. Their Sixth Trumpet is sound,
and, when it does, it makes known to them the
revealed Son of God; one-half hour of space.
Remember, all Trumpets sound on this Sixth Seal.
THE SIXTH SEAL FINISHES THE MYSTERY, under the
Sixth Seal, just before the Seventh is opened.
THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS, SUNDAY 19/07/64
Revealing the six Seals is enough to finish the
mystery of the written Word.
The unwritten seventh Seal must be left to God.
He alone can bring it to pass.
QUESTION 4: DID THE THUNDERS UTTER DURING BRO
BRANHAM'S MINISTRY?
38-2 (Capital S-e-a-l)... Seal up those things which
the seven thunders uttered, and write them not.
It's on the backside. When a book is complete...
Now, He didn't say on the front side; He said on
the backside. AFTER IT'S ALL DONE COMPLETED, THEN
THESE SEVEN THUNDER VOICES IS THE ONLY THING that is
stuck to the Book, THAT'S NOT REVEALED. It's not even
written in the Book.
...These seals are on the backside of the book, and
AT THE TIME THAT THE SEVENTH ANGEL IS SOUNDING,
ALL THE MYSTERIES THAT ARE WRITTEN IN THE BOOK IS
COMPLETED.
Brother Branham was to reveal the mysteries that
"are written in the Book".
His ministry was not for the mysteries that were
on the backside of the Book. Some mysteries are
written in the Book. Some mysteries are not written
in the Book. These mysteries are somehow hidden
away in the Book without a specific symbol or image
that we can interpret.
There are at least four of these unwritten
mysteries:
What the seven Thunders say
The Seventh seal
The new name of Jesus
The time of His second Coming
These mysteries were not part of Brother
Branham's ministry.
We will discuss each of these points later in this
study.
Nor was his ministry concerned with the
mysteries that pertain to the Jews in the tribulation,
such as the seven vials and the seven trumpets.
34 Now, THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS. Now, this was
a gathering of Israel, where they gathered
together, the feast of the trumpets.
35 Now, I have been anticipating for sometime
to--to speak on the subject of the Seven Trumpets
in the Book of Revelations. And now we are going
to review this, just a moment, to bring out the real
cause of me not speaking this time, because THE
HOLY SPIRIT WOULD NOT LET ME SPEAK AT THIS TIME ON
THESE THINGS. I know that sounds very juvenile,
maybe, to people of great learning and
understanding, but to the Christian it's different.
We--we follow the leading of the Spirit, that
alone.
THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS 19/07/64
44 Then when I come to this part here, of
preaching the Seven Trumpets, I was thought,
"Well, I'll not try to think anything. I'll just wait
till that time and let Him reveal it to me." And
then yesterday when I was... I went into the room
and wondering why... Or, beg your pardon, it was
day before yesterday. When I went into the room,
to try to understand, it was there that the Holy
Spirit opened up this, to show ME THE REASON IT NOT
PROFITABLE EVEN FOR THE CHURCH AT THIS TIME, 'CAUSE IT
HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH THE CHURCH, AT ALL.
THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS 19/07/64
He tried to preach the "Feast of the Trumpets" but God
told him that those mysteries were not meant for the
Gentile church. They refer to the Jewish remnant in the
great tribulation. Thus he could not hold a week long
session on the seven Trumpets although he had done that
for the seven Church Ages and then again for the seven
Seals because those mysteries affect the Gentile bride.
If you think you know all the mysteries, tackle the
2300 days of Daniel's prophecy. That is a real puzzle.
Brother Branham explained ALL THE MYSTERIES that
ENABLE THE BRIDE TO GET READY FOR THE CATCHING AWAY of
the church to escape the tribulation.
Thus THE MYSTERIES OF THE TRIBULATION TIME ARE NOT
APPLICABLE TO THE BRIDE because she will miss the
tribulation.
235-1 39 —the seventh angel, when he sounds, all
the mysteries of God should be finished up by his
sounding. Then AFTER IT'S REVEALED, THE ANGEL COME
DOWN FROM HEAVEN, which was Christ (Now
remember, this angel and is on earth, a
messenger). Down comes Christ (You see Him in
the 10th chapter of Revelations.), puts one foot
upon the land and the other one on the sea,
rainbow over His head, eyes and, like—and feet
like fire and so forth, raises up His hand and
swears by Him that lives forever and ever on the
throne, that time shall be no more.
235-4 42 AND WHEN HE TAKES THIS OATH, SEVEN
THUNDERS UTTER THEIR VOICES,
236-1 46 - And then goes on and said, IN THE DAY JUST
BEFORE these seven thunders, ALL THE MYSTERIES HERE
ARE REVEALED.
THE THIRD SEAL, WEDNESDAY 20 MARCH 1963
The Angel descends after the mysteries are
revealed.
Just before the seven thunders, the mysteries are
revealed.
Fact: The Angel descends and the Thunders utter
after the messenger finishes revealing the mysteries.
Fact: The Angel does not come down to reveal the
mysteries. He comes down after they are revealed.
The Cloud appeared on Sunset Mountain before
the Seals were revealed.
So the Cloud is not the Angel.
283-5 {35} And THEN AFTER THESE SEVEN SEALS ARE
COMPLETED, WE FIND IN REVELATIONS 10 THERE WAS SEVEN
MYSTERIOUS THUNDERS
THE FOURTH SEAL, THURSDAY 21/03/63
Fact: Seven Thunders were AFTER the
completion of the revelation of the Seals
44-3 Now, is it plain? When the first seal was opened,
the SEALS THAT WAS INSIDE THE BOOK, these mysteries
that was sounded forth: justification, sanctification,
Roman Catholic Church, Protestants, and when all
their little battles and things left these loose ends in the
Word of God, the seventh angel comes on and gathers
them all up and explains them. See? AND THEN HE FINISHES;
SEVEN THUNDERS UTTER OUT.
Fact: The seven Thunders only utter when he finishes
the mysteries.
285-1 45 But we find out then that in the Book of
the Revelation at the seventh angel's message, the
mysteries, ALL THE MYSTERIES OF IT, SHOULD ALREADY BE
REVEALED BY THAT TIME (Now that's Revelations 10:1-
7), that it should be revealed according to that
time—at that time when He did.
THEN THE SEVEN THUNDERS UTTER THEIR STRANGE VOICES,
and John was going to write... It was... John knew
what it was, but he—he didn't write it, 'cause he
was forbidden to write it. THAT'S ABSOLUTELY AND
ALTOGETHER A MYSTERY. It's not even in symbol or
nothing. WE JUST KNOW HE—IT THUNDERED; THAT'S ALL.
THE FOURTH SEAL THURSDAY 21 MARCH 1963
Fact: All the mysteries should be revealed, then the
seven thunders utter
Fact: The thunders are absolutely and altogether a
mystery
72 ...and then we got over in the Bible and showed
that there would be a--a seventh angel's Message.
And at the sounding of the seventh angel's
Message, ALL THE MYSTERIES OF GOD WOULD BE MADE
KNOWN. THEN COME SEVEN MYSTERIOUS THUNDERS.
STANDING IN THE GAP 23 JUNE 1963
Fact: All the mysteries should be revealed, then
the seven thunders utter
Fact: The thunders are mysterious
283-5 {35} AND THEN AFTER THESE SEVEN SEALS ARE
COMPLETED, we find in Revelations 10 THERE WAS
SEVEN MYSTERIOUS THUNDERS that John was
commissioned to write but then forbidden to
write those. And AT THE TIME OF THOSE THUNDERS, WE
FIND CHRIST, OR THE ANGEL COME DOWN WITH A RAINBOW,
AND PUT HIS FEET ON THE LAND AND SEA and swore that
time had run out at that time.
THE FOURTH SEAL 21 MARCH 1963
Fact: The Angel of Revelation 10 comes down after
the mystery is finished.
He did not come down to unfold the mystery.
Note, on February 28 the great Cloud of 1963 was
photographed which was the day before the hunting
season opened. So brother Branham was not out hunting
when the Cloud was photographed! The hunting season
opened on 1 March. Some time after that, seven angels
appeared to him and gave bro Branham the commission
to reveal the mysteries of the seven Seals. A month later
this was done during a week- long series of meetings.
Then for 3 years further revelations of the written
mysteries in the Scripture unfolded. These revelations
ceased in December 1965 with his tragic death. Thus the
written mysteries to prepare us for the catching away
were complete. So the 7 Thunders can only utter after
1965. Thus the Angel of Revelation 10 can only come
down after 1965 when the Message was complete.
THE ANGEL DID NOT COME DOWN TO REVEAL THE MYSTERIES.
The Angel came down with an open book i.e. after the
mysteries were revealed. So the Cloud is not the
Angel.
The Cloud consisted of 7 angels going away. It was
not one Angel coming.
The Cloud went away BEFORE the Seven Seals were
revealed.
46- ... The other angels; was messengers, men of the
earth. But this Angel ... But this One didn't come from
the earth;
HE COMES DOWN FROM HEAVEN, BECAUSE THE MYSTERY'S
ALL FINISHED.
And WHEN THE MYSTERY'S FINISHED, THE ANGEL SAID,
"TIME SHALL BE NO MORE," AND SEVEN THUNDERS
THROWED THEIR VOICES OUT.
SIRS IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END? 30/12/1962E
Fact: When the mysteries are finished, then the seven
thunders utter
mysteries. He comes down after they are revealed.
He comes down BECAUSE the mysteries are
finished.
245 But, remember, if it goes plumb into the
shadows of death, "I am the resurrection and Life;
I'll raise him up again." And when the great
Director comes down and bears that stick down,
then, "time shall be no more.
"WHEN THAT ANGEL, OF REVELATION THE 10TH CHAPTER,
PUTS ONE FOOT ON LAND AND ONE ON THE SEA, AND A
RAINBOW OVER HIS HEAD, HE SWORE, "TIME SHALL BE NO
MORE."
WHEN THAT TIME COMES, YOU'LL RISE UP FROM AMONG THE
DEAD.
While the rest of them lay there, you'll go in.
SHALOM, PREACHED ON SUNDAY 19 JANUARY 1964
Fact: The Angel comes down to perform the
resurrection. This is the voice of the archangel.
The Angel, CHRIST IN THE FORM OF THE ANGEL,
COMES DOWN TO PERFORM THE RESURRECTION . He stands
on land and sea where the dead have been buried
through the ages. This is His triumph over Death,
the last enemy. The roar of the Lion, the King of
Life!
The Angel does not come to reveal the mysteries.
That has already been done by the 7th angel.
The Message has to come before the resurrection,
to prepare us for it so that we believe the same
things that the first church believed. We will only
see them if we believe what they believed. The seed
that is harvested at the end is identical to the seed
that was planted at the beginning. It has no extras.
37-3 Notice, Revelations 5:1. Listen at this now.
And I saw in the right hand of him that set upon
the throne a BOOK WRITTEN WITHIN... (THE WRITING WAS
WITH INSIDE.)... And on the backside, sealed with
seven seals!
Now, there's writing on the inside of the Book, but
the backside had SEVEN SEALS ON THE BACK OF IT THAT
WASN'T WRITTEN IN THE BOOK. Now, this is the
revelator talking: John. Now, remember, it wasn't
written in the Book. "AND IN THE DAYS OF THE VOICE
OF THE SEVENTH ANGEL ALL THIS MYSTERY THAT'S WRITTEN
WITHIN SHOULD BE FINISHED." It should be taken care
of in that day. Now, do you see what I mean? Are
you following me?
THEN IS THE TIME FOR THE SEVEN VOICES OF REVELATIONS
10 TO BE REVEALED.
WHEN THE BOOK IS FINISHED, THERE'S ONLY ONE THING
LEFT, AND THAT IS THE SEVEN MYSTERIOUS VOICES OF
THUNDER that was wrote on the backside of the
Book that John was forbidden to write.
The seventh angel finishes the written mysteries.
There are also seven seals that are not written
(the 7 thunders)
First the Message of the 7th angel - Christ coming
to His church as the revealed Word, to take us back
to the teachings of the early church.
When the Book is finished! When the written
mysteries are revealed, then Christ comes as the
Angel of Revelation 10 to perform the resurrection.
Then the 7 Thunders utter to prepare the whole
church, living and resurrected, for the second
coming of the Christ in His physical body.
Then the bride will be caught up to meet Him in
the air.
39-4 The Bible said here that that would be ONE OF
THE MYSTERIES THAT WOULD BE UNFOLDED. Protestants,
prostitutes committing spiritual fornications,

leading people by denominations with their cup of
iniquity of man-made doctrine, and pulling them
away from the fountain filled with Blood, where
the power of Almighty God flows freely to
manifest Jesus Christ.
If that's true, then God will back it up; and He has
done it; and He will continue. BUT WHEN THAT COMES
TO PASS, THE WORD IS FINISHED.
NOW, THERE'S ONLY ONE THING LEFT. THAT IS THE SEVEN
THUNDERS THAT WE DON'T KNOW; and it would not have
thundered in vain. God don't do something just to
be playing. We play and act silly, but not God.
Everything with God is "yea and nay." He doesn't
just fool. He doesn't kid. He means what He says,
and He says nothing 'less there's something
meaning
"SIRS IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END?" 30/12/1962E
When the Word is finished then the mysteries are
unfolded. After that only one thing is left, the seven
Thunders.
Fact: All the mysteries should be revealed, then
the seven Thunders utter.
9 We're told, in Revelation 10, that there'll be a
messenger in the last day will gather up these
little ends and will bring them together. And THEN
THE MYSTERY OF GOD WOULD BE FINISHED, AT THE
SOUNDING OF THIS ANGEL, which was a messenger of
the earth. THEN ONE CAME DOWN FROM HEAVEN, with
His hands up, rainbow over His head, and swore
that there would be time no more; an Angel
taking an oath. And when we see this thing is
materializing, oh, how sincere we should be.
INFLUENCE, PREACHED ON SATURDAY 12/01/63
When the mystery is finished, then One comes
down from heaven - the Angel.
mysteries. He comes down after they are revealed or
finished.
130 Now, someone said, "Well, that SEVEN SEALS,
then, Brother Branham, that will be revealed in
the last days, some great mystery how we get
closer to God?" No, sir, it can't be.
131 "Whosoever shall take one Word from this
Bible, or add one word to It, his part will be taken,
the Book of Life." WHAT IT IS A REVELATION ON WHAT HAS
BEEN MISSED BACK THERE, TO BRING. IT'S ALREADY WROTE HERE. IT'S
IN HERE. IT'S . See?
TO REVEAL WHAT ALREADY HAS BEEN WRITTEN
Cause, you can't add one thing to It, or take one

Word from It.
THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS, 19/07/64A
The seven Seals that are written in Revelation
Chapter 6, when they are revealed by the 7th angel,
open up and reveal the mysteries that are written
in the Bible.
THEY DO NOT REVEAL THE UNWRITTEN MYSTERIES.
Nor do they reveal everything about the
tribulation. That applies to the Jews.
They reveal the written mysteries that pertain to
the church that the church lost after the first church
age. After the dark ages the reformers were able to
understand some of the mysteries like salvation,
holiness, outreach, the Pentecostal power etc. but
they were unable to puzzle out certain mysteries
hidden in Scripture like how sin started, the fact
that Jesus is Lord God Almighty, the various
symbols in the Book of Revelation, what the Name
of Father, Son and Holy Ghost is etc. These are the
mysteries that the Protestant reformers missed.
E-24 We see time closing in. Soon WE'RE LOOKING
FOR THE ANGEL that will set His foot on the land and
on the sea, and raise up His hand and swear by
Him that lives forever and ever, time shall be no
more. SAID AT THAT TIME THE MYSTERY OF GOD SHOULD
BE FINISHED. We understand now, Father that God's
threefold mystery has been made known to us.
And we understand, AND WE'RE LOOKING NOW FOR
THOSE MYSTERIOUS THUNDERS THAT CAME OUT FROM
HEAVEN,
in the book of Revelations, that was sealed
on the back of the book.
SUPER SIGN, PREACHED ON SUNDAY 24 JUNE 1962
Point 1: When the mysteries are finished, then the
seven thunders utter!
Point 2: The Angel does not come down to
reveal the mysteries. He comes down after they are
finished!
39-3 Now, when he begins to sound, THE MYSTERY
WILL BE FINISHED. NOW, NOTE. THEN IT'S TIME FOR THE
SEVEN SEALED VOICES OF REVELATIONS 10 TO BE REVEALED.
Do you understand? WHEN ALL THE MYSTERIES OF THE
BOOK IS COMPLETED, and the Bible said here that he
would finish the mysteries...
Point 1: When the mysteries are finished, then the
seven thunders utter!
51-5 I don't know. Is it--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.
Fact: When the mysteries are finished, then the
seven thunders utter to the bride group that will be
changed in an instant and then caught up with the
resurrected saints to meet the Lord in the air.
74-1 {39} And now, we know that this Book of
Redemption will not be thoroughly understood:
it's probed at through six church ages, but at the
end, when the seventh angel begins to sound his
mystery, he winds up all of the loose ends that
these fellows probed at,
and THE MYSTERIES COMES [unquote: Coming 1] DOWN
FROM GOD AS THE WORD OF GOD AND REVEALS THE ENTIRE
REVELATION OF GOD. Then the Godhead and
everything else is settled. All the mysteries:
serpent's seed and whatever more is to be
revealed.
74-2 {40} At the sounding of the seventh church
age, the last church age, all the loose ends that
through these church ages have been probed at,
will be wound up together. And WHEN THE SEALS ARE
BROKE AND THE MYSTERY IS REVEALED, DOWN COMES
[unquote: Coming 2] THE ANGEL, the Messenger,
Christ, setting His foot upon the land and upon
the sea with a rainbow over His head.
Now remember, this seventh angel is on earth at
THE TIME OF THIS COMING. [Unquote: which coming?
Coming 1 - the mysteries or coming 2 - the Angel]
THE BREACH BETWEEN THE SEVEN CHURCH AGES AND THE
SEVEN SEALS, SUNDAY 17/03/63E
But he has spoken of two comings. The coming of
the mysteries and then the coming of the Angel! The
Angel only comes when the seals are broke and the
mystery is finished being revealed.
Before Christ comes down as the Angel to perform
the resurrection, Christ must first come down in the
form of the revealed Word.
The Angel does not come down to give the
commission to reveal the Seals.
Seven angels did that in March 1963 - not one
Angel.
The Angel does not come down as a Cloud. THE
CLOUD WAS PHOTOGRAPHED GOING AWAY on February 28
1963 which was the day before the hunting season
opened in March 1. Some time early in March, while
he was hunting, the SEVEN ANGELS CAME TO HIM to give
him the commission to reveal the seven (had) written
Seals of Revelation Chapter 6.
Brother Branham only began to reveal the Seals
during March 17-25, 1963.
That revelation opened up a deeper insight into
Scripture which enabled brother Branham to reveal
many other mysteries that were written in the Bible.
This revelation of the written mysteries continued
until December 1965 when the Lord took him home.
So the Angel of Revelation 10 can only come down
some time after 1965 when the mysteries were
finished.
Remember, the Angel only comes down when the
Seals are broke or revealed.
At which coming (the coming of the mysteries or
the coming of the Angel) is the seventh angel on
earth?
Read the next paragraph:
75-1 {47} And here He returns back in the 10th
chapter AFTER THE COMING TIME, THAT ALL THE
and the Seals are to be
MYSTERIES IS TO BE FINISHED,
broke, and proclaiming that its time is no more.
And he said, "When the seventh angel has begin
to sound, then the MYSTERIES SHOULD BE FINISHED AND
TIME FOR THE ANGEL TO APPEAR. WE'RE CLOSE,
somewhere. That's right.
SEVEN SEALS, 17/03/63E
The Angel only comes after the mysteries are
finished
Point 2: The Angel does not come down to reveal
the mysteries. He comes down after they are
finished.
This sermon was preached about two and a half
weeks after the Cloud was photographed and
brother Branham is saying "time for the Angel to
appear". Obviously he did not regard the Cloud as
the Angel. The Cloud was past tense.
He says "We're close". He is looking forward to
the Angel that was soon to appear.
So the Cloud was not the Angel.
The Angel had not yet appeared when brother
Branham revealed the Seals.
The Angel only comes down when the mysteries
have been revealed.
THE SEVENTH ANGEL HAS TO BE ON EARTH WHEN THE
MYSTERIES COME DOWN i.e. CHRIST IN THE FORM OF THE
REVEALED WORD.
Only when he has explained the mysteries that the
bride needs to prepare for the catching away will the
Angel i.e. Christ in the form of the Angel, come
down.
Why does this Angel come down? To perform the
resurrection of the dead!
The resurrection is an event which is still to occur
in the future. It did not happen on February 28th
1963 when the Cloud appeared.
E-7 We're going towards a dark chamber, a
chamber of death. Everyone enters that chamber.
And every time our heart beats, we go one step
closer. Someday, I shall enter that chamber. And
when I get down to the last heart beat, I do not
want to go in there as a coward; I want to wrap
myself in His righteousness; pull it up around me
and enter that chamber, to know Him in the
power of His resurrection. And when they... THE
ANGEL SCREAMS FORTH, THE VOICE, THE TRUMPET
SOUNDS; I WANT TO COME OUT FROM AMONG THE DEAD.
EXPECTATION, PREACHED ON WEDNESDAY 05 APRIL 1950
Brother Branham was looking for this Angel to
come down to perform the resurrection. This was
still early in his ministry in 1950.
262 We've all got a victory. We've fought through
many victories. And a great victory is coming just
soon, right around the corner. Our complete V-day will
be SOON, WHEN THE SON OF GOD SHALL BREAK THE SKIES,
AND SCREAM WITH THE VOICE OF THE ARCHANGEL, AND HE
SHALL COME AGAIN. AND THE GRAVES SHALL OPEN, AND THE
DEAD SHALL WALK OUT.
VICTORY DAY, PREACHED ON SUNDAY 21 APRIL 1963
In 1963, almost two months after the Cloud was
photographed going away, brother Branham was
still looking for the Angel come down to perform the
resurrection. (Christ in the form of an Angel is also
called the Archangel, the number one Angel)
130 Three things happens! A voice... A shout, a
voice, a trumpet, has to happen before Jesus
appears. Now, a shout... Jesus does all three of
them when He's—He's—He's—He's descending.
A shout, WHAT IS THE SHOUT? IT'S THE MESSAGE GOING
FORTH, first, the living Bread of Life bringing forth
the Bride.
141 The first thing comes, when He starts
descending from the Heaven, there's a shout.
What is it? Is a Message, to get the people
together!
152 Now, it's the first thing, is the sounding. The
first thing is a trumpet and a... or a voice... A
shout; and then a voice; and then a trumpet!
Shout: a messenger getting the people ready.
THE SECOND IS A VOICE OF THE RESURRECTION: the same
voice, that, a loud voice in Saint John 11:38-44,
that called Lazarus from the grave.
GETTING THE BRIDE TOGETHER; AND THEN THE
RESURRECTION OF THE DEAD, see; to be caught up with
It. Now watch the three things takes place. The
next is what? Was a trumpet! A voice... A shout;
a voice; a trumpet!
153 Now, the third thing is a trumpet. Which
always at THE FEAST OF TRUMPETS is calling the people
to the feast and that'll be the Bride's Supper, the
Lamb's Supper with the Bride, in the sky. See?
154 The first thing comes forth is His Message,
calling the Bride together. The next thing is a
resurrection of the sleeping Bride; the--the ones
died, back in the other ages, they're caught
together. And the trumpet, the Feast in the
heavens, in the sky! Why, that's the thing that
takes place, friends.
THE RAPTURE, PREACHED ON SATURDAY 04/12/65
In December 1965, the month he died, brother
Branham was still looking forward to the resurrection.
This belief was unchanged throughout his ministry.
QUESTION 5: WHAT LINK IS THERE BETWEEN THE 7 THUNDERS
AND THE 7 SEALS?
324-1 It was in the end-time period that the seven

thunders of Jesus came forth. REVELATION 10:3-4, "And
cried with a loud voice, as when a lion roareth: and
when he had cried, seven thunders uttered their voices.
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."
WHAT WAS IN THOSE THUNDERS NO ONE KNOWS. BUT WE
NEED TO KNOW. AND IT WILL TAKE A PROPHET TO GET THE
REVELATION because God has no other way of bringing
out His Scriptural revelations except by a prophet. The
Word always came by a prophet and always will.
THE LAODICEAN CHURCH AGE, CHURCH AGE BOOK CHAPTER
9 PUBLISHED 1965
This Church Age book was published towards the
end of his ministry. He still did not know "what was
in those thunders". "No one knows".
AS A PROPHET HE HAD TO GET A REVELATION OF THE
THUNDERS AND YET NOT KNOW WHAT WAS IN THEM, BECAUSE
THEY ARE AN UNWRITTEN MYSTERY.
HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?

1161-Q-395 395 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?
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?
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 4 COD, 30/12/64E
Fact: "the thunders WERE REVEALED IN THE SEVEN
SEALS"
To get his revelation of the thunders, we must see
what he said about them while he was preaching the
seven Seals.
Fact: "that is WHAT THE THUNDERS WAS ABOUT"
THIS IS THE VITAL CLUE.
Brother Branham revealed WHAT THE THUNDERS WERE
ABOUT.
What they would do. Not what they uttered.

HE REVEALED THE PURPOSE OF THE THUNDERS IN THE SEVEN
SEALS, BUT NEVER TOLD US WHAT THEY SAID i.e. THEIR
CONTENT.
That is how we can have a revelation of the

thunders (what their purpose is) and yet they
remain a mystery a we have no idea what they said.
72-1 {29} - This seven-sealed Book is revealed at
the time of the Seven Thunders of Revelations 10.
72-4 - {32} - 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.
Six of the seven Seals are written in the Bible and
can thus be revealed.
What the thunders uttered is not written in the
Bible and thus can't be revealed.
This is the vital difference between the 7 thunders
and the 7 Seals.
But the seventh Seal is also not written in the
Bible. It is total silence. No clues.
Thus there is a link between the unwritten
seventh Seal and the unwritten seven thunders.
75-3 {49}- It is SEALED UP WITH SEVEN SEALS.
Now, that's a DIFFERENT from the Seven Thunders.
The unwritten thunders are NOT the seven Seals
BUT THE PURPOSE OF THE THUNDERS is revealed in the
seven Seals.
Yet a mystery remains: what the thunders say.
The seventh Seal is a total mystery (just silence)
because it refers to the biggest mystery in Scripture
which is the Second Coming of the Lord. We know
nothing about this mystery. So if we also know
nothing about what the thunders utter, then the
thunders must be linked to the Coming of the Lord.
The purpose of the thunders is linked to the Coming
of the Lord.
36-1 THE BOOK THAT IS WRITTEN WITHIN IS THEN
COMPLETED, WHEN THIS—ALL THESE MYSTERIES HAVE
FINISHED TO BE SOUNDED.
Now, let me read it again, so you will be sure.
Now, look.
But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel…,
(The last angel)... when he shall begin to sound,
THE MYSTERY OF GOD SHOULD BE FINISHED...
Now, WHAT IS THE MYSTERY OF GOD...ONE OF THEM?

Paul said in I Timothy 3, I believe it was, said,
"Without controversy GREAT IS THE MYSTERY OF
GODLINESS... For God was manifested in the flesh."
We handled Him, seen Him, received up into
glory. Witnessed by angels, vindicated here on
earth! God was.
Sure, it's a great mystery, but it's all solved: not
Father, Son and Holy Ghost, three Gods, but One
God in three offices. The Fatherhood under
Moses, the Sonship under Christ, the Holy Ghost
under this dispensation: three dispensations of
the same God, not three Gods.
THE MYSTERY'S FINISHED NOW. The Bible said it should
be.
Brother Branham revealed the written mysteries,
"the Book that is written within", the written
mysteries that we need to know to prepare for the
second Coming.
He revealed the mystery of the Godhead.
36-7 THE BOOK THAT IS WRITTEN WITHIN IS THEN
COMPLETED WHEN THIS ANGEL CEASES. Now, please
understand this. When the seventh angel's
message is completed, the godhead mystery, the
serpent's seed mystery, all the other mysteries of
all these things, eternal sonship, as they talk
about! How can He be an eternal Son, when
eternity never began or never ends? And a son is
something that's begotten of. How can it make
sense?
He revealed the hidden mysteries that are written
in the Bible like the Godhead, serpent seed. The
mysteries that baffled the reformers!
37-2 Notice, THE BOOK WRITTEN... When this angel
finishes all these loose-end ministries that
through the battle they fought, Luther fought, and
Wesley fought, and the Pentecostals fought, but
there's coming one, says the Bible, that in the days
of his sounding, ALL THESE MYSTERIES... The Oneness
runs off on Jesus' Name. The Trinity went off on
Father, Son, Holy Ghost, just like they did at the
Nicaea Council: same thing. They both was wrong.
But now, in the middle of the road, in THE SCRIPTURES
LAYS OUT THE TRUTH. You see where we are at? The
angel of the Lord...
37-3 Notice, Revelations 5:1. Listen at this now.

And I saw in the right hand of him that set upon
the throne A BOOK WRITTEN WITHIN... (THE WRITING WAS
WITH INSIDE.)... And ON THE BACKSIDE, SEALED WITH SEVEN
SEALS!
Now, there's writing on the inside of the Book, but

the BACKSIDE had SEVEN SEALS ON THE BACK OF IT THAT
WASN'T WRITTEN IN THE BOOK. Now, this is the
revelator talking: John. Now, remember, it wasn't
written in the Book. "And IN THE DAYS OF THE VOICE OF
THE SEVENTH ANGEL ALL THIS MYSTERY THAT'S WRITTEN
WITHIN SHOULD BE FINISHED." It should be taken care
of in that day. Now, do you see what I mean? Are
you following me?
THEN IS THE TIME FOR THE SEVEN VOICES OF REVELATIONS
10 TO BE REVEALED.
WHEN THE BOOK IS FINISHED, THERE'S ONLY ONE THING
LEFT, AND THAT IS THE SEVEN MYSTERIOUS VOICES OF
THUNDER that was wrote on the backside of the
Book that John was forbidden to write.
The prophet reveals the writing that was inside
the Book, not the seven seals on the back of the
Book that are not written in the Book.
These seven seals on the backside of the Book are
the seven thunders.
40-3 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.
The Revelation of Jesus Christ is the last book of
the Bible. In this book of Revelation appear(s) the
seven thunders in Chapter 10. They hold the
mystery of the Coming of the Lord. That is a mystery
that we do not know.
284-5 {42} - That's the way the church ages and
Seals and all the rest of it! AND WHEN ANYBODY THINKS
THAT HE HAS THOSE SEVEN THUNDERS, IF IT DON'T COMPARE
WITH THE REST OF THE WORD, THERE'S SOMETHING WRONG
HERE.
THE FOURTH SEAL, PREACHED ON THURSDAY 21/03/63
The Thunders hold some hidden mystery that we
need to know. They must somehow agree with what
is written even though they are not actually written
themselves.
Example, if you think the Thunders are the 7
virtues of the stature of a perfect man, then that
version of the Thunders is written in the book of
Peter. Thus it cannot be the correct version. But
when these mysterious Thunders finally do utter,
they will not contradict what Peter wrote.
QUESTION 6: DID BROTHER BRANHAM REVEAL WHAT THE 7
THUNDERS SAID?
568-2 335 - "When will it be, Brother Branham?" I
cannot tell you. I do not know.... ...One of the
mysteries of that Seal, THE REASON IT WASN'T
REVEALED, it was seven thunders that uttered their
voices, and there it is perfectly, BECAUSE NOTHING
KNOWS ANYTHING ABOUT IT; WASN'T EVEN WRITTEN. So
we're at the end time; we are here.
THE SEVENTH SEAL, PREACHED ON SUNDAY 24/03/63E
Please discipline yourself. WE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT
THE SEVENTH SEAL, which is the great mystery of
Christ's coming, and WE KNOW NOTHING ABOUT WHAT
THE SEVEN THUNDERS SAID.
Whatever you think they said, you are simply

guessing as there is zero written evidence.
But we can perceive a link. The 7 thunders and
the 7th seal are both not written. So they are joined
in some way. The 7 thunders will utter in some way,
after the resurrection, to prepare us for the catching
away of the church at the second Coming of the
Lord. The seventh Seal is linked to the second
Coming.
557-5 249 - IT IS THE SECRET THAT NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT.
John was forbidding to write about it - even - even
- write a symbol about it. Why? This is why there
was no active in—activity in heaven; it might give
away the secret. Do you see it now? If it's so great
it must be included, because it's got to happen,
but when the seven thunders...
... Seven thunders in a row, uttered not... making
just— just one, two, three, four, five, six, seven,
straight. Then heavens couldn't write that.
Heavens can't know about it, nothing else,
because there's nothing to go on. It's a relaxing
time. IT WAS SO GREAT TILL IT'S KEPT SECRET FROM THE
ANGELS. NOW, WHY?
IF SATAN SHOULD GET A HOLD OF IT, HE MIGHT DO GREAT
DAMAGE. There's one thing he don't know. Now, he
can interpret anything he wants to, and
impersonate any kind of a gift (I hope you're
learning.), but he can't know this. It's not even
written in the Word. IT'S A TOTAL SECRET. THE
ANGELS, EVERYTHING SHUT UP. If they made one move
it might give something away, so they just shut
up, quit harping; everything stopped.
THE SEVENTH SEAL, 24/03/63E
Where the Thunders were concerned, John was totally
silent. All those in Heaven who witnessed the seventh
seal open, kept quiet.
Let us do on earth what they did in Heaven. Keep our
mouths shut.
If you know the answers and you reveal the secret to
anyone, you will do great damage. So please keep your
knowledge to yourself.
575-6 {392} Did you notice when the Jews asked
Him that? You know when we compared the
Scripture here with Matthew 24 with the six Seals,
THE SEVENTH SEAL WAS LEFT OUT; BECAUSE (YOU SEE?),
CHRIST SAID ONLY GOD HIMSELF KNOWED, not even the
Angels. No wonder, it wasn't even written. You
see, they hushed; nothing takes place then. Angels
don't know it;
NOBODY KNOWS WHEN HE'S COMING. BUT THERE'LL BE A…
THERE'LL BE SEVEN VOICES OF THESE THUNDERS THAT WILL
REVEAL THE GREAT REVELATION AT THAT TIME.
So I believe, to us who... If we don't know it, and

we—we—it won't be knowed till that time, but IT
WILL BE REVEALED IN THAT DAY, IN THE HOUR THAT IT'S
SUPPOSED TO BE REVEALED IN. So the thing for us to do
is to be reverent before God and serve Him, and
do all that we know how to do, and live good
Christian lives.
Here now, we find that the Sixth Seal has been
opened to us; we see it, and we know that THIS
SEVENTH SEAL CANNOT BE BROKE TO THE PUBLIC UNTIL
THAT HOUR ARRIVES.
THE SEVENTH SEAL, PREACHED SUNDAY 24/03/63E
Some claim that the public does not refer to the bride.
208 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 is silence in Heaven." No one knew.
It was the Coming of the Lord.
SOULS THAT ARE IN PRISON, 10/11/63
557-5-{249}-IT IS THE SECRET THAT NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT.

THE SEVENTH SEAL, 24/03/63e
The public includes us and everyone else.
568-2-335 - "When will it be, Brother Branham?" I
cannot tell you. I DO NOT KNOW.... One of the
mystery of that Seal, the reason it wasn't revealed,
IT WAS SEVEN THUNDERS THAT UTTERED THEIR VOICES, AND
THERE IT IS PERFECTLY, BECAUSE NOTHING KNOWS ANYTHING
ABOUT IT; WASN'T EVEN WRITTEN. So we're at the end
time; we are here.
THE SEVENTH SEAL, PREACHED ON SUNDAY 24/03/63 E
The public includes brother Branham himself.
577-1 {400} And now, if this tape would happen to
fall into the hands of some persons somewhere,
DON'T TRY TO MAKE ANY KIND OF AN "ISM" OUT OF IT. The
only thing you do, you just continue serving God,
because this great secret is so great that God
wouldn't even let John write it. IT THUNDERED OUT,
but He... knowing that... PROMISING US THAT IT WOULD BE
OPENED, BUT TO THIS TIME, IT ISN'T OPENED.
564-2-301 So just remember, THE SEVENTH SEAL, THE

REASON IT WAS NOT OPENED (SEE?), THE REASON IT DID NOT
REVEAL IT, NO ONE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT IT....
You notice. Notice now, for the end-of-time
message, this Seal. After all, He—He's REVEALED ALL
THE SIX SEALS, BUT IT DON'T SAY NOTHING ABOUT THE
SEVENTH. AND THE END TIME SEAL, WHEN IT STARTS, WILL
BE ABSOLUTELY A TOTAL SECRET ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE.
PLEASE NOTICE, THE SEVENTH SEAL DID NOT OPEN.
The revelation that brother Branham got on the seventh
Seal was that it is a total mystery that is linked to the
second Coming. We know what the seventh Seal refers to
(the second Coming) but we know absolutely nothing
about it because we cannot interpret total silence.
576-3 {394} Now, there was some reason that God let
this seven voices be thundered, because it must come
(See?), for the... We find that Christ, the Lamb took
the--the Book in His hand, and HE OPENED THAT
SEVENTH SEAL. BUT YOU SEE! IT'S A HIDDEN MYSTERY . NO
ONE KNOWS IT. But it—it's right along with what
He said: NO ONE WOULD KNOW HIS COMING; THEY ALSO
WOULD NOT KNOW ABOUT THIS SEVEN THUNDER MYSTERY. SO
YOU SEE, IT'S CONNECTED TOGETHER!
THE SEVENTH SEAL PREACHED ON SUNDAY 24/03/63E
When the seventh Seal opened, it was to reveal that it
is a total mystery that no-one knows. Thus, in one sense
it opened to reveal that it is linked to the second Coming.
In other words, we now know what it refers to.
But effectively, it has not opened because we know
nothing about this hidden mystery.
568-2 335 "When will it be, Brother Branham?" I
cannot tell you. I do not know....One of the
mystery of that Seal, THE REASON IT WASN'T REVEALED,
it was SEVEN THUNDERS that uttered their voices, and
there it is perfectly, BECAUSE NOTHING KNOWS ANYTHING
ABOUT IT; WASN'T EVEN WRITTEN. So we're at the end
time; we are here.
THE SEVENTH SEAL, PREACHED ON SUNDAY 24/03/63
576-3-394 That much we have a understanding of

it today, because the rest of it is all unfolded, but
this is not unfolded. But setting in my room, and I
heard this—or NOT HEARD IT, RATHER, BUT SEEN IT
UNFOLD TO THIS SEVEN THUNDERS . Now, that's as far as
we can go right there. And now I trust that each
and every one of you will serve God, and do that
which is right, and love Him all your life and serve
Him, and God will take care of the rest.
We cannot know what the seven thunders utter
until they do utter.
THE REVELATION OF THE SEVENTH SEAL IS THAT IT OPENED
TO REVEAL THAT IT IS A TOTAL MYSTERY. It is linked to the
Coming of the Lord.
Brother Branham NEVER HEARD the 7 thunders
utter. HE SAW THEM in a vision, but never heard what
they said.
567-1 {322} ... Now, what this great secret is that
lays beneath this Seal, I do not know. I don't know
it. I couldn't make it out. I couldn't tell it, just
what it and just what it said. But I know that it
was them SEVEN THUNDERS UTTERING THEMSELVES RIGHT
CLOSE TOGETHER, JUST BANGING SEVEN DIFFERENT TIMES,
AND IT UNFOLDED INTO SOMETHING ELSE THAT I SEEN.
Then when I seen that, I LOOKED FOR THE

INTERPRETATION THAT FLEW ACROSS THERE, AND I COULDN'T
MAKE IT OUT. That's exactly right, friend. See? The
hour isn't quite yet for it, but it's moving into that
cycle. See? It's coming up close. So the thing for
you to do is to remember that I speak to you in
the Name of the Lord: Be prepared, for YOU DON'T
KNOW WHAT TIME SOMETHING CAN HAPPEN.
The interpretation of the seven thunders was
impossible to understand because it appeared as an
unknown tongue. God obviously does not want us to
know what the thunders said. Only when they utter
will we know.
At this point we are out of our depth. How do
you interpret an unknown tongue?
563-5 299 ..."This will be the third pull, and you won't
tell it to nobody."
And in Sabino Canyon, He said, "This is the third
pull." And THERE'S THREE GREAT THINGS THAT GOES WITH
IT, and one unfolded today, or yesterday, the other
one unfolded today, AND THERE'S ONE THING THAT I
CANNOT INTERPRET, BECAUSE IT'S IN AN UNKNOWN
LANGUAGE. But I was standing right there and
looked right straight at it, and this is the third pull
coming up. And the Holy Spirit of God... Oh, my.
THAT'S THE REASON ALL HEAVEN WAS SILENT.
Brother Branham saw the seven thunders utter
but the interpretation of this uttering was in an
unknown tongue. Two other things go with the
thunders but he never told us what they were. So at
this point we are way out of our depth. Speculation
will not cure our ignorance.
106 God's great mystery of how, it's a secret. He
kept it a secret. NOBODY KNOWED NOTHING ABOUT IT!
Even the Angels didn't understand it. See, He
didn't reveal it. That's the reason, under our
seventh mystery, when the seventh seal was
opened, there was silence. Jesus, when He was on
earth, they wanted to know when He would come.
He said, "It's not... Even the Son Himself don't
know when it's going to happen." See, God has
this all to Himself. It's a secret. And that's the
reason there was silence in Heaven for a space of
a half hour, and seven thunders utter their voices,
and John was even forbidden to write it, see, THE
COMING OF THE LORD. THAT'S ONE THING HE HASN'T
REVEALED YET, OF HOW HE WILL COME, AND WHEN HE WILL
COME. IT'S A GOOD THING THAT HE DOESN't. No.
CHRIST IS THE MYSTERY OF GOD REVEALED, 28/07/63
567-3 {325}... I who's going to—WHAT'S

DON'T KNOW
GOING TO TAKE PLACE. I DO NOT KNOW. I JUST KNOW THAT
THOSE SEVEN THUNDERS HOLDS THAT MYSTERY, THAT
HEAVEN(S) WAS QUIETED. Everybody understand?
Here we get a clue to QUESTION 6. What is the
function of the thunders?
They hold the mystery of when the Lord is coming.
576-7 {398} ... But you notice, He omitted the
revelation of this SEVENTH SEAL. And here when the
Seventh Seal, when He opened it, He also omitted
it again. See? So we see THAT IT IS A COMPLETE
MYSTERY, THEREFORE, THE HOUR IS NOT YET FOR THESE
MYSTERY to be known, therefore, we're this far and
the rest of it will be known right around about the
time that Jesus appears on earth again for His
Bride, or whatever takes place at that time.
Now, until that time, let's just all pray and live
good straight Christian lives, LOOKING FORWARD FOR
HIS COMING.
555-6-229. We must remember THAT THIS SEVENTH
SEAL IS THE END OF TIME OF ALL THINGS. That's right.
The things written in the Seven Seal Book (sealed
up of the plan of redemption from before the
foundation of the world), it every bit ends. It is
the end; it is the end of the struggling world. It's
the end of struggling nature. It's the end of
everything. In there is the end of the trumpets. It's
the end of the vials. It's the end of the earth. It's
the...It's even the end of time. Time runs out; the
Bible said so.
... Revelations the ...—10th chapter and the—and 1
to the 7th verse! Time runs out. The ANGEL SAID, TIME
WILL BE NO MORE, WHEN THAT—IN THE DAYS OF THIS GREAT
THING TO HAPPEN. Everything runs out in this time,
the end of the—of the—at the end of this Seventh
Seal.
The Angel of Revelation 10 is still in the future.
The Angel is obviously not the Cloud which was
photographed more than three weeks previously.
556-2 {233} Notice, it's the end of the church age.
It's the—the end of the Seven Seals. It's the end of
the trumpets. It's the end of the vials, and even
ends the ushering in of the millennium; that's on
the Seventh Seal.
It's just like firing a rocket into the air, and that
rocket explodes here, and it goes up, then it
explodes again. It puts out five stars. One of those
stars explodes and blows out five stars from it;
and then one of them stars explodes, blows out
five stars from it (See?); it fades on out. That's
what THE SEVENTH SEAL; IT JUST ENDS THE TIME FOR THE
WORLD. It ends the time for this. It means the time
for that. It ends the time for this. It ends the
time... Everything just ended up on that Seventh
Seal.
The world systems did not end in 1963. They will only
end in the tribulation.
556-4 {236} Now, HOW IS HE GOING TO DO IT? THAT'S
WHAT WE DON'T KNOW, ISN'T IT? We don't know. It's even
the time for all these things, and the ushering in of the
millennium.
Notice, the breaking of this Seal was so great that
heaven was hushed by it in silence for the space of a
half hour. Now, is it great? What is it? It was hushed:
heaven. There wasn't a thing moved for a half hour.
Now, a half hour might not be long if you're having a
good time, but in the suspense of between death and
life, it seemed like a millennium. It was so great, JESUS
NEVER MENTIONED IT: NONE OF THE REST OF THEM. JOHN
COULDN'T EVEN WRITE OF IT. NO, HE WAS FORBIDDEN TO
WRITE HERE. See, there's just... He just... He didn't
write, but it's just is SILENCE.
We should follow their example.
We know what the unwritten mysteries refer to
but we do not know their content.
We do not know what the seven Thunders say.
We do not know the new name of the Lord.
We do not know when He is coming.
564-2 {301} Now, I—I'd better stop right here. See? I
just--I just feel checked not to say no more about it.
See? So just remember, THE SEVENTH SEAL, THE REASON
IT WAS NOT OPENED (SEE?), THE REASON IT DID NOT REVEAL
IT, NO ONE SHOULD KNOW ABOUT IT...
You notice. Notice now, for the end-of-time message,

this Seal. After all, He—He's REVEALED ALL THE SIX
SEALS, BUT IT DON'T SAY NOTHING ABOUT THE SEVENTH.
AND THE END TIME SEAL, WHEN IT STARTS, WILL BE
ABSOLUTELY A TOTAL SECRET ACCORDING TO THE BIBLE.
Before knowing that... And remember, Revelations
10:1, 7 (1-7, chapter 10:1-7) at the end of the seventh
angel's message, all the mysteries of God would be
known. We're at the end time, the opening of the
Seventh Seal.
Six written Seals have been revealed but the seventh
Seal is not written in Scripture and thus brother Branham,
or any other man, cannot reveal it. How can any man
reveal what is not written?
How did God reveal the great mystery of Christ's first
Coming? Through the agency of supernatural angels was
the new name of God revealed.
Humans did not convey this information to Joseph
and Mary.
20 But while he thought on these things, behold,
THE ANGEL OF THE LORD appeared unto him in a
dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear
not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that
which is conceived in her is of the Holy Ghost.
21 And she shall bring forth a son, and thou shalt CALL HIS
JESUS: for he shall save his people from their
sins.
Matthew 1:20-21
26 And in the sixth month THE ANGEL GABRIEL was

sent from God unto a city of Galilee, named
Nazareth,
30 And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary:
for thou hast found favour with God.
31 And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb,
and bring forth a son, and shalt CALL HIS NAME
JESUS.
Luke 1:26, 30-31
575-4 {390} ...Now, now, do you notice on THE

OPENING OF THIS SEVENTH SEAL, IT'S ALSO IN A THREEFOLD
MYSTERY. This one I have—will speak and have
spoke, that it is the mystery of the seven thunders.
THE SEVEN THUNDERS IN HEAVEN WILL UNFOLD THIS
MYSTERY. IT'LL BE RIGHT AT THE COMING OF CHRIST,
BECAUSE CHRIST SAID NO ONE KNEW WHEN HE WOULD
RETURN.
THE SEVENTH SEAL, PREACHED ON SUNDAY 24/03/63 E
The opening of the seventh Seal is a threefold mystery.
One of those threefold mysteries is the seven Thunders
that we know nothing about.
We do not know what the other two parts of the
threefold mystery are either.
So do not try to puzzle out these mysteries with human
intelligence.
Eve puzzled out how to bring life through sex, making
a mess.
Sarah puzzled out how Abraham could get a son
through Hagar, making another mess. That produced
Ishmael and the Arabs who now hold all of us to ransom
for high oil costs and inflation and turmoil in the Middle
East.
We do not need any more mess.
So please, no more puzzling out what the thunders say.
Just leave it to God. He does not need our help.
557-3 {245) What happens is that those seven thunders
that he heard thunder and was forbidden to write, that's
WHAT THE MYSTERY IS LAYING BEHIND THOSE SEVEN
CONSECUTIVE THUNDERS rolling out.
557-5 {249} Now, why? Let us prove it. Why? It IS
THE SECRET THAT NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT.
So we do not know what the thunders say, but we
can discover what they do.
They will give the bride faith for the catching
away.
If the thunders have already uttered, why has the
catching away not happened?
169 And he stretched forth his rod, at the
command of God, and said, "Let frogs come up
and cover the earth." And the frogs come till they
heaped them up, piles, and stink was everywhere,
maybe forty or fifty feet high, of frogs. They were
in the cupboard of--of Pharaoh. They were in
the... turn down the sheet, and there would be a
five hundred frogs under the sheet, under the bed,
in the grub. Everywhere they went, was frogs,
frogs, frogs. Where did they come from? God, the
Creator, is sovereign. What He says, He'll do!
170 And He said there'll be hideous sights upon
the earth. "Locusts with hair like women," long
hair, to haunt them women that cut their hair.
"Teeth like lion; stingers in their tails, like
scorpions; they would torment men, months."
JUST WAIT TILL WE GET IN TO OPENING THEM PLAGUES AND
SEALS, AND THEM SEVEN THUNDERS, WATCH WHAT TAKES
PLACE. Oh, brother, you better get to Goshen while
there's time to get to Goshen. Don't pay any attention
to this outside.
AND KNOWETH IT NOT, PREACHED ON SUNDAY 15/08/65
In 1965, brother Branham was still looking
forward to preaching on the Thunders.
Here he links them to the plagues that pour out in
the Tribulation.
He says "Seals" but he had already preached he
Seals. Did he mean Vials?
The seven Vials, that pours out in the Tribulation?
19 And last week's tapes, I think, will reveal to you
the great hideous things that we're going to speak
on one of these days when we can get a place
sufficient, of the OPENING OF THOSE LAST PLAGUES to be
poured out upon the earth, those Vials, rather,
POURING OUT OF THE VIALS, AND THE SEVEN THUNDERS,
AND THOSE HIDEOUS SIGHTS THAT'S COMING UPON THE
EARTH. Man now, and people today, are in such a
neurotic condition; the whole world!
CHRIST IS REVEALED IN HIS OWN WORD, 22/08/65
Here he definitely links the Thunders to the Vials
and the Plagues that are poured out in the
Tribulation. It is 1965 and he still wanted to preach
on the Vials and the seven Thunders. He still saw
them in the future.
16 Now, in doing this, I have come here for the
purpose of teaching the last Vials, LAST SEVEN VIALS,
AND THE LAST SEVEN TRUMPETS, AND THE LAST SEVEN
THUNDERS, of the Book of Revelation, tying them
together in this hour that we're now living; to follow
the opening of the Seven Seals, the Seven Church
Ages. So, we couldn't get room to do it. So I—I hope
that, soon as I can, we'll... can get a place sufficient for
that, either here or in Louisville, New Albany, or either
put up a tent, so we can just stay as long as the Lord
leads us to do."
THE GOD OF THIS EVIL AGE, PREACHED ON SUNDAY 01/08/65
In 1965 he is still keen to preach on the seven
Thunders and link them to the events of the
Tribulation.
QUESTION 7: DID BROTHER BRANHAM REVEAL THE PURPOSE OF
THE 7 THUNDERS?
1161-Q-395 395 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?
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?
QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS 4 COD SUNDAY 30/08/64E
Read through the entire SEVEN SEALS BOOK. NOWHERE
IN THERE DOES BROTHER BRANHAM TELL US WHAT THE SEVEN
THUNDERS UTTERED.
BUT IN THE SEVEN SEALS HE DOES REVEAL WHAT THE
THUNDERS WAS ABOUT. In other words, he told us what
their purpose was, their function in the plan of God.
142-1 {166} But think, now he wrote this, but
when he started to write those other seven
thunders, he said, "Don't write it." He'd been
commissioned to write everything he seen. But
when these seven thunders over in Revelations 10
uttered, he said, "Don't write them at all." They're
mysteries. We don't know what they are yet; but
my opinion they'll be revealed right away. And
when it do IT'LL GIVE FAITH FOR THAT RAPTURING GRACE
FOR THAT CHURCH TO MOVE OUT. WE JUST MOVE THROUGH
EVERYTHING THAT WE KNOW OF; THROUGH ALL THE
DISPENSATIONS we've watched everything. We've
seen the mysteries of God. We've seen the
appearing of the—of the great gathering together
of the Bride in the last days, BUT YET THERE'S
SOMETHING IN THERE THAT WE JUST CAN'T LIGHTEN
OURSELF WITH. There's something another. But I
imagine when them mysteries begins to come
forth... God said, "Hold it back now. Wait a
minute. I'll reveal it in that day. Don't write it at
all, John, 'CAUSE THEY'LL STAGGER OVER IT. Just let—
let it go. (See?) BUT I'LL REVEAL IT IN THAT DAY WHEN IT
HAS NEED TO DONE."
THE FIRST SEAL, PREACHED ON MONDAY 18/03/3
Fact: The seven Thunders will give us the faith to
be caught up to meet the Lord in the air
327-1 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. Exactly so!
THE LAODICEAN CHURCH AGE - CHURCH AGE BOOK CHAPTER 9
The purpose of the thunders is to turn us back to
the early church. We can only LITERALLY unite with
the Pentecostal fathers after their resurrection. They
will be in new bodies and we need to have our
bodies changed. That is when the thunders will be of
benefit because the Lord will not come until after
the resurrection and after our bodies have changed.
So let us look in the seven seals to get a revelation
of what the thunders are about i.e. what they are to
do, what their purpose is.
557-5 249 IT IS THE SECRET THAT NO ONE KNOWS ABOUT.
JOHN WAS FORBIDDING TO WRITE ABOUT IT, EVEN, EVEN
WRITE A SYMBOL ABOUT IT. Why? This is why there
was no active in—activity in heaven; it might give
away the secret. Do you see it now? IF IT'S SO GREAT
IT MUST BE INCLUDED, BECAUSE IT'S GOT TO HAPPEN, BUT
WHEN THE SEVEN THUNDERS...
Now, notice, when the seven angels come forth to
sound their trumpets, there was one thunder.
When Israel was gathered, there was a trumpet.
When time shall be no more, the last trumpet...
One thunder, but here is seven straight thunders
right in a row: one, two, three, four, five, six,
seven, that perfect number. Seven thunders in a
row, uttered not... making just--just one, two,
three, four, five, six, seven, straight. Then heavens
couldn't write that. Heavens can't know about
it, nothing else, because there's nothing to go on.
It's a relaxing time. It was so great till it's kept
secret from the Angels. Now, why?
IF SATAN SHOULD GET AHOLD OF IT, HE MIGHT DO GREAT
DAMAGE. There's one thing he don't know. Now, he
can interpret anything he wants to, and
impersonate any kind of a gift (I hope you're
learning.), but he can't know this. It's not even
written in the Word. It's a total secret. The Angels,
everything shut up. If they made one move it
might give something away, so they just shut up,
quit harping; everything stopped.
Fact: The thunders reveal something about the
Coming of the Lord which is a too secret to be
known at the moment. It is a very important secret.
No general reveals his battle plan until the last
minute.
322-4 {314} And He's got wrote, "Life," riding on a
white horse, and here's a man with three different
powers mixed up, called death, gathering his
earthbound delegates, and Christ is gathering His
heaven-born subjects, saints.
He's got death wrote on him; Christ's got Life wrote on
Him. Those with Him are on white horses also, and
they are called "the chosen before the foundation of the
world," (Amen.) and they are faithful to the Word.
Amen. Whew. I like that one. CALLED, CHOSEN BEFORE
THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD, AND THEN FAITHFUL TO
THE WORD BY THEIR CHOOSING, all stimulated with new
wine and oil just riding right along, coming down TO
MEET HIM. THEY KNOW THE THUNDERS WILL ISSUE THE
THING 'COURSE PRETTY SOON. See?
The thunders are still in the future, they will issue
something to the chosen to enable them to meet the
Lord.
Notice the future tense. They will utter the secret
in the future.
567-3 {325} I don't know who's going to--what's going
to take place. I DO NOT KNOW. I just know that THOSE
SEVEN THUNDERS HOLDS THAT MYSTERY, THAT HEAVENS WAS
QUIETED. Everybody understand?
THE SEVENTH SEAL, PREACHED ON SUNDAY 24/0363 E
Fact: No one knows in advance what will happen
at the Coming of the Lord. But that mystery will
only be revealed when the Thunders utter.
575-6 {392} Did you notice when the Jews asked
Him that? You know when we compared the
Scripture here with Matthew 24 with the six Seals,
the Seventh Seal was left out; because (You see?),
Christ said only God Himself knowed, not even
the Angels. No wonder, it wasn't even written.
You see, they hushed; nothing takes place then.
Angels don't know it; NOBODY KNOWS WHEN HE'S
COMING. BUT THERE'LL BE A ... THERE'LL BE SEVEN VOICES
OF THESE THUNDERS THAT WILL REVEAL THE GREAT
REVELATION AT THAT TIME.
So I believe, to us who... If we don't know it,
and we — we —IT WON'T BE KNOWED TILL THAT TIME,
BUT IT WILL BE REVEALED IN THAT DAY, IN THE HOUR THAT
IT'S SUPPOSED TO BE REVEALED IN. So the thing for us to
do is to be reverent before God and serve Him,
and do all that we know how to do, and live good
Christian lives.
Again the thunders are spoken of in the future
tense.
What will they do? Reveal when the Lord is
coming. This will only happen at the last minute to
avoid Satan damaging God's plan.
142-3 {171} But now the Lamb is showing John in
the symbol of s—of a—of a church Scripture like,
for the church (you know) what to write. He just
show him, said, "Now, don't—don't tell this, just
what it is. Don't go down, John, and say, 'Now,
this is just what this is.' Now, what's under this
Seventh Seal, don't—don't go down and tell that,
for if I tell John that, then all down through the
age the whole plan will be broke: it's a secret."
See? He just wants to...
His coming... He said, "I—I... Nobody's going to
know when I'm coming; I'm just coming." See,
see? That's all. It ain't for my business to know
when, I'll just be ready. You see? So...
We have no business even trying to know when
He is coming. Just leave it alone.
It is like the day of your death. You are better
off for not knowing.
253-2 {182} Now, that's what's the reason today
that the—the revivals that we're supposed to
have... We have denominational revivals; we
haven't had a real stirring. No, no, no, no. No, sir!
Don't think we got revivals. We haven't. Oh,
they've got millions and millions and millions of
church members, but not a revival nowhere. No, no.
The—THE BRIDE HASN'T HAD A REVIVAL YET. SEE?
THERE'S BEEN NO REVIVAL THERE, NO MANIFESTATION OF
GOD TO STIR THE BRIDE YET. SEE? WE'RE LOOKING FOR IT.
IT WILL TAKE THOSE SEVEN UNKNOWN THUNDERS BACK
THERE TO WAKE HER UP AGAIN. HE WILL SEND IT. He
promised it. Now, now, watch. Now, she was—she
was dead.
THE THIRD SEAL, PREACHED ON WEDNESDAY 20/03/63
Fact: The thunders will wake up the bride and
give her a revival. "He will send it" means it is
something in the future.
225-6 {350} God, help our unbelief. Take it away
from us, Lord. WE WANT TO RECEIVE RAPTURING GRACE.
WE WANT TO BE ABLE WHEN THAT MYSTERIOUS THUNDER
THUNDERS OUT YONDER, AND THE CHURCH IS TAKEN UP, we
want to be ready to receive it, Lord
THE SECOND SEAL, PREACHED ON TUESDAY 19/03/63
Fact: Grace to be caught up in the air. We will
need a new body. The catching up is after the
changing of the body. This is what the thunders are
concerned with.
155-2 {259} Seven thunders of revelation... May
He SHOW THE BRIDE HOW TO PREPARE FOR THE GREAT
TRANSLATION FAITH!
Jesus walked on water. After His resurrection He
walked up into the air. We have to walk upwards
into the air to meet Him. That is what the thunders
are to achieve.
53-2 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.
SIRS IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END? PREACHED ON SUNDAY
EVENING 30 DECEMBER 1962
The seven thunders will reveal to the church how to go

when the Lord comes.
51-5 Sunday I come down here to speak, and I--I
tried to shake myself from it by speaking. Monday
it was there again. And it's here now. And I don't
know; I don't know, sirs. I'm only honest with you
as my brothers. I DON'T KNOW.
Is it—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.
SIRS IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END? PREACHED ON SUNDAY
EVENING 30 DECEMBER 1962
Again he links the thunders to the changing of the

body, being caught up to meet the Lord in the air.
Christian prayer has raised the dead and healed all
manner of disease. But how to get our bodies
changed? How to walk up into the air? That is going
to take something new from God. Our clever ideas
will never achieve it.
128-2 {75} - 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
There's something we've got to step farther;
DO IT.
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.
The seven Thunders will give the bride enough faith to
be changed from this body into a glorified body.
304-1 179 Now, we had him coming last night with
his great sword to kill. We find out that he gets
killed with the Sword too, the sword of the Word.
God's Word, sharp, two-edged sword slays him,
puts him right down. WAIT TILL THEM SEVEN THUNDERS
UTTER THEIR VOICES TO THAT GROUP WHO REALLY CAN TAKE
THE WORD OF GOD AND HAND IT THERE. IT'LL SLICE AND
CUT. AND THEY CAN CLOSE THE HEAVENS; THEY CAN SHUT
THIS OR DO THAT, WHATEVER THEY WANT TO. Glory!
Fact:
This is powerful and unexpected.
So the seven thunders will go over to the two
prophets in Israel in Revelation 11. Elijah closes the
heavens. It will be part of the key to their great
supernatural power.
Thus the thunders can only utter right at the end
to take up the bride and then go over to the two
Jewish prophets.
36-5 Now, when is the Gospel returning to the
Jews? When the day of the Gentiles is finished!
The Gospel is ready to go back to the Jews. Oh, if I
could just tell you something that is about to
happen right in this our day. THIS GREAT THING THAT
IS ABOUT TO HAPPEN WILL CARRY OVER TO REVELATION 11
AND PICK UP THOSE TWO WITNESSES, THOSE TWO PROPHETS,
MOSES AND ELIJAH, TURNING THE GOSPEL BACK TO THE
JEWS. We're ready for it. Everything is in order. As
the Jews brought the message to the Gentiles,
even so the Gentiles will take it right back to the
Jews, and the Rapture will come.
THE REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST - CHURCH AGE BOOK
CHAPTER 1
Both Jew and Gentile are involved with the seven
thunders. The Thunders do not just utter to the
bride.
Revelations reveals all the happenings unto the
Church. The Church goes up at the 4th chapter of
Revelations, and returns back at the 19th chapter
of Revelations, the Bride and the Groom,
together, coming to the earth. And then from the
19th chapter to the conclusive of the 22nd chapter,
it's all on the Millennium and what will be in the
years that is to follow it.
DURING THE 4 TO THE 19 , GOD IS DEALING WITH ISRAEL.
TH TH
THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS, PREACHED ON SUNDAY

MORNING 19 JULY 1964
This is difficult to understand. But it warns us

that the events in Chapter 10 must have some
application to Israel too.
72-1 29 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 a 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.
Notice how he refers to this Angel in two different
ways.
The church is fixing to be caught up and He is
coming for His church, the bride. And then again,
the church has been caught up and the Angel is
coming to the Jews.
The great Angel and the seven Thunders have a
compound application to the church and to the
Jews.
At this stage things get very complex. Time is no
more when the resurrection of the dead from the
previous church ages occurs and the living bride is
changed to receive their new bodies. But time will
carry on for everyone else. We cannot really
understand events that are linked to a bride that is
outside of time. We only understand the world we
live in and that world is bound by time.
But, somehow, the seven Thunders and the Angel
(the archangel which is Christ in the form of an
Angel) have a ministry towards both the Gentile
bride and the Jewish remnant. They link those two
different groups together in some mysterious
manner.
When God became a man, He took on the name
Jesus. And as a man He has three official comings.
The first Coming was to save His church. The
second Coming is to catch His threatened Church
away to the wedding supper from the destruction
that sweeps the world into the tribulation where the
Beast will rule for three and a half years. The third
Coming is to return with His church to conquer the
beast at Armageddon and set up His rule of 1 000
years upon the earth, known as the First Heaven.
The first taste of heaven upon earth since Adam's
fall!
But God can also take on the form of an Angel,
and when He intervenes as an Angel then that is not
one of the three official Comings. Just as He was the
greatest man, so He is the greatest Angel. As an
Angel He takes on the name of Michael. His rank of
Archangel makes Him the supreme Angel. God's
intervention as an Angel involves both the natural
and the supernatural. Thus it is impossible for us
humans to puzzle this out in advance. The
intervention will be very mysterious because it has
to fool the Devil.
Revelations reveal all the happenings unto the
Church. The Church goes up at the 4th chapter of
Revelations, and returns back at the 19th chapter
of Revelations, the Bride and the Groom,
together, coming to the earth. And then from the
19th chapter to the conclusive of the 22nd chapter,
it's all on the Millennium and what will be in the
years that is to follow it. DURING THE 4TH TO THE
19TH, GOD IS DEALING WITH ISRAEL.
THE FEAST OF THE TRUMPETS, PREACHED ON SUNDAY
MORNING 19 JULY 1964
158-3 {283} And Jesus, His Name on earth was

Redeemer, Jesus. When He was on earth, He was the
Redeemer; that's true. But when He conquered death
and hell, and overcome them, and ascended on high,
HE RECEIVED A NEW NAME. That's the reason they holler
the way they do and don't get nothing; IT'LL BE
REVEALED IN THE THUNDERS. See?
Fact: the Thunders will reveal the new name of
Jesus.
Clever speculation has resulted in many new
names circulating in Message circles.
If Jesus has a new name now, then you must not
use His old name of Jesus anymore. When God took
on the new name of Jesus in the New Testament, He
never referred to His old name of Jehovah again.
But there is no other name under heaven whereby
we can be saved, other than the name of Jesus. So
we will know Him by that name until our bodies
change and we no longer need a Saviour.
Only when you are in a new body will you know
His new name.
158-4 284 Notice, the mystery! He's coming,
riding... THERE'S GOT TO BE SOMETHING TO CHANGE THIS
CHURCH, you know that. There's got to be
something. Notice! NO MAN KNOWED but Himself.
Now, notice, no man knowed but Hisself.
The thunders will reveal the new name of the
Lord. This is linked to the church changing, getting
a new body. Only then will you not need a Saviour as
redemption will be over.
No man knows this new name. So whatever you
think it is, you are wrong.
The Bible says that NO — ONE KNOWS THE NEW NAME
OF JESUS. It is one of the unwritten mysteries that is
linked to the unwritten Thunders.
12 And He had a name written, that no man
knew, but He Himself.
REVELATION 19:12
No man knows the new name. Please do not add
to the confusion by trying to puzzle it out. God will
reveal it when we are given new bodies. In this
blood-filled body we are sinners saved by grace so
we need a Saviour. We need the blood of Jesus. In
your new body you will have no blood. Thus you will
need no blood soaked Saviour hanging on a cross.
Then only will the new name be applicable to you.
50 ... flesh and blood cannot inherit the kingdom of
God; neither doth corruption inherit incorruption.
10 CORINTHIANS 15:50
221-2 321 Revelations 19:11

And I saw heaven opened... (Amen.)... And behold
a white horse; and he that set on him was called
Faithful and True, and in righteousness he did
judge and make war.
His eyes were... the flames of fire, and on his
head... many crowns... (Oh! Brother! See, He's
done been crowned by his saints. You see?)... and
HE HAD A NAME WRITTEN, THAT NO MAN KNEW, but
himself. (You remember, we—we can't—WE DON'T
KNOW THAT, see? what it is.)
And he was clothed... (Let's see.)... And he was
clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: AND HIS
NAME IS CALLED... (NOT "IS," BUT CALLED)... THE WORD
OF GOD!
For He and the Word is the same.
We don't know the new name.
His name is called the Word of God. His name is
NOT "The Word of God".
Word is a title. Do not substitute a title for a
name. This is the same mistake that Trinity made
with three titles.
THE SECOND SEAL, PREACHED ON MONDAY 19/03/63
196 and he had a name written, that no man

knew, but... himself…
And he was clothed with the vesture dipped in
blood: and his name was called The Word of
God... (Now, remember, HIS NAME WASN'T THE WORD
OF GOD, HIS NAME WAS CALLED THAT. See?)... his name
was called The Word of God.

THE PATMOS VISION, 04 DECEMBER 1960E
284 I'll write upon him the name of my God,...

which is the new Jerusalem, which cometh
down... or, the city of my God, which is new
Jerusalem, which comes down from God... out
from heaven from my God: and I will write upon
HIM MY NEW NAME.
I BETTER LEAVE THAT ALONE, HADN'T I?
THE PHILADELPHIAN CHURCH AGE, 10/12/60
Wise advice seeing that no man knows the new
name!
Why don't you leave the new name alone also?
Then you will line up with brother Branham's
teachings.
318-1 "And I will write my NEW Name upon him."
My New Name! When ALL becomes new, then He
will take upon Him a new Name and that Name
will be the Name of the bride also. WHAT THAT
NAME IS, NONE DARE CONJECTURE. It would have to be a
revelation of the Spirit given so conclusively that
none would dare deny it. But no doubt He will
leave that revelation to the day when He desires
to give that Name forth. Suffice it to know that IT
WILL BE MORE WONDERFUL THAN WE COULD EVER IMAGINE.
THE PHILADELPHIAN CHURCH AGE - CHURCH AGE BOOK CHAPTER 8
The new name is beyond our ability to imagine.
You should not even dare to try to guess it or puzzle
it out. So we must just leave it alone. Our limited
human imaginations cannot conceive the wonder of
the new name.
38-2 Look where the voices was in the thunders,
not in heaven, on earth! THE THUNDERS NEVER
UTTERED FROM THE HEAVENS; THEY UTTERED FROM THE
EARTH.
SIRS IS THIS THE SIGN OF THE END? PREACHED ON SUNDAY EVENING
30 DECEMBER 1962
Here he says the Thunders utter from earth.
575-4 390...
Now, now, do you notice on the opening of this
Seventh Seal, it's also in a threefold mystery. This
one I have—will speak and have spoke, that it is
the mystery of the seven thunders. THE SEVEN
THUNDERS IN HEAVEN WILL UNFOLD THIS MYSTERY. It'll be
right at the coming of Christ, because Christ said
no one knew when He would return.
THE SEVENTH SEAL, PREACHED ON MONDAY EVENING 24/03/63
Here he says the Thunders are in heaven.
24 ... And we understand, and WE'RE LOOKING NOW
FOR THOSE MYSTERIOUS THUNDERS THAT CAME OUT FROM
HEAVEN, in the book of Revelations, that was sealed
on the back of the book.
SUPER SIGN, PREACHED ON SUNDAY EVENING 24/03/62
Are the Thunders from heaven or from earth?
So how much do we really understand of the
Thunders?
A final caution! Should we be trying to produce
the thunders?
50 THE DEVIL'S NOTHING BUT A BLUFF anyhow,
snorting, and blowing, ALL THUNDER AND NO
LIGHTNING. But I tell you, brother, the lightning
power of the resurrected Jesus Christ puts a
reality there that shocks the soul from a dead
slumber of these earthly bound things into the
immortal realms to believe God, and take Him at
His Word, and call those things which are not, as
though they were. Amen.
THE POWER OF THE DEVIL, PREACHED ON WEDNESDAY EVENING 05
OCTOBER 1955
30 The voice spoke last. It was the last thing.

We've had rushing winds, and thunder, and
everything else. But the hour is coming now that
the voice of God speaks. And He proves that's
Him. It was Him that sent the thunder. And THEY
WENT AFTER THE THUNDER INSTEAD OF LISTENING FOR THE
VOICE.He sent the wind, but they went after the
wind instead of the voice.
WHAT HEAREST THOU ELIJAH, PREACHED ON SUNDAY EVENING 12
APRIL 1959
We have to be patient and wait for God's time.

Trying to manufacture one thunder or trying to
puzzle out seven thunders in advance, will not help
God's plan.
