Christian greetings in the precious Name of our Lord Jesus Christ—thank


you for joining us in fellowship around God's unchanging Word.

Today we will investigate the Book of Daniel through


Ezekiel's visions on the millennial temple. With respect to
current news political events are catching up with Biblical
prophecies. In the United States the political left and the
political right are each trending toward collectivism as is Francis I, perhaps
in view of Daniel 9:27, for scripturally Judaeo-Communism is opposed to
Judaeo-Catholicism which, allied with Eastern Orthodoxy, her apostate
(once) Protestant image, Jewry, Islam and pagan religions as per Vatican II,
constitutes a formidable bloc (Amos 3:3; Revelation 17:12-15). Fascism and
Nazism will coalesce into Communism but before Armageddon they will all
end up under Catholicism because "the Devil-incarnate beast, and the kings
of the earth, and their armies, will gather together to make war against
Jesus Christ on His white horse, and against His army" (Revelation
19:14, 19).

Someone said, "Ignorance hardly needs an introduction. We live with it. It is


universal. It is ubiquitous and permanent, everywhere and always." When
individuals, business, military and government leaders sell their soul for
authority and power they lose compass and become defenseless targets
open to compromise by parties with greater wealth than nations and
multinational corporations. Lucifer and his companions are shrewd, ruthless
and without restraint, but the Truth will out. The once Christian West is now
naked of the Blood of Christ, blind to the faith, trading on past reputation,
materially rich and in need of nothing but spiritually bankrupt. Brother
Branham prophesied that when are no longer able to bribe the nations for
friendship those "good time charlies" will ally with Communism (Revelation
17:16-17). The leaders of almost every member nation of that Jewish
criminal NGO, the UN, are in lockstep risking public health and destroying
national economies in service to UN diktat. In lockstep Netanyahu, Boris
Johnson, Xi Jinping, Scott Morrison and Mike Pence forsook President Trump
who withstood the globalists and supported the Constitution so that
Americans and America might be self-supporting and independent rather
than pawns beholden to a globalist behemoth.

The fraudulent US Presidential election has exposed politicians and the


corrupt party system, whose ruthless love of money, entrenched treason, in
service to the alien Deep State, CIA, FBI, international banksters, foreign
nations such as China, the Ukraine, Washington DC, Vatican City, and the
City of London.

Are many US lawmakers spineless outlaws, or are the masses they claim to
represent? They despise the nation's foundation, and foolishly pursue a
psychological operation controlled by aliens and mindless citizens to elect a
provably corrupt man POTUS in place of President Trump: one swimming
against the current of corruption inherent within the national framework to
preserve the "goddamn piece of paper" that binds fifty-one sovereign states
into a nation http://www.Qanon.pub .

You and I and not building upon a foundation of gold, silver, precious
stones, wood, hay, stubble, but faith which is the substance of things hoped
for, the evidence of things not seen. To the natural man this is foolish
because faith cannot be seen, heard, smelt, tasted or touched.

This Newsletter serves those of like precious faith. We encourage you to


share our Newsletter with friends, family and colleagues, and look forward

is welcome to feed their soul from the waters of the River of Life. Everything

It would be an Irreparable Disaster if Joe Biden were


designated President of the United States,
Archbishop Carlo Maria Vigano warns Believers in
Latest Interview with Steve Bannon
January 1, 2021 — 1. Now that the Vatican has renewed its
insidious secret agreement with China, a deal which you have
repeatedly condemned as promoted by Bergoglio with the
assistance of McCarrick, what can the "children of light" of the Great
Awakening concretely do to undermine this unholy alliance with this
brutal Communist regime?

www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 2/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

Archbishop Carlo Maria Viganò: The dictatorship of the Chinese


Communist Party is allied to the global deep state, on the one hand so
that together they can attain the goals that they have in common, on the
other hand because the plans for the Great Reset are an opportunity to
increase the economic power of China in the world, beginning with the
invasion of national markets.

At the same time that it pursues this project in its foreign policy,
China is pursuing a domestic plan to restore the Maoist tyranny,
which requires the cancellation of religions (primarily the Catholic
religion), replacing them with a religion of the State . . . the
suspicions that the resignation of Benedict XVI involved China are quite
strong and coherent with the picture that has been emerging in recent
months . . . the Catholic Church in China may be denounced and punished
with sanctions and strong diplomatic pressure. And this is the line that
President Trump is pursuing with decisive courage . . . It would be an
irreparable disaster if Joe Biden, who is heavily suspected of being
complicit with the Chinese dictatorship, would be designated as
President of the United States.

2. You have been very confident that God desires a Trump victory in order
to defeat the forces of evil inherent in the globalists' Great Reset. What
would you say to convince the naysayers who are ambivalent to the idea
that this is a momentous battle between the children of light and the
children of darkness?

Archbishop Viganò: I simply consider who Trump's adversary is and his


numerous ties to China, the deep state, and the advocates of globalist
ideology. I think of his intention to condemn us all to wear masks, as he has
candidly admitted. I think of the fact that, incontestably, he is only a puppet
in the hands of the elite, who are ready to remove him as soon they decide
to replace him with Kamala Harris.

Beyond the political alignments . . . it is essential that the victory of the one
who is elected President must be guaranteed in its absolute legal legitimacy,
avoiding any suspicion of fraud and taking note of the overwhelming
evidence of irregularities that has emerged in several states.

A President who is simply proclaimed as such by the mainstream media


affiliated with the deep state would be deprived of all legitimacy and would
expose the nation to dangerous foreign interference, as has already been
shown to have happened in the current election.

3. You seem to suggest that the Trump Administration could be


www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 3/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

instrumental in helping to return the Church to a pre-Francis Catholicism.


How does the Trump Administration accomplish that, and how can American
Catholics work to save the world from this globalist 'reset'?

Archbishop Viganò: Bergoglio's subservience to the globalist agenda is


obvious, as well as his active support for the election of Joe Biden. In the
same way, Bergoglio's hostility to Trump and his repeated attacks against
the President are evident. It is clear that Bergoglio considers Trump as his
principal adversary, the obstacle that needs to be removed, so that
the Great Reset can be put in motion . . .

4. Against all odds, average Americans are fighting to expose the massive
and coordinated theft of our election: what advice would you give to our
recalcitrant politicians about what is at stake for our nation and the world if
we submit to this theft?

Archbishop Viganò: The Truth can be denied by the majority for a certain
amount of time, or by some people forever, but it can never be hidden from
everyone forever . . . If the United States misses this opportunity, now, it
will be wiped out from History.

5. In your letter to the President on October 25, the Solemnity of Christ the
King, you spoke of the efforts of the deep state as "the final assault of the
children of darkness." There is a concerted effort by the globalists and their
media partners to conceal and obscure the true tyrannical agenda implicit in
the Great Reset, by calling it a wild conspiracy theory. What would you say
to the skeptics who blissfully ignore the signs and plan to submit humanity
to the domination of the global elites?

Archbishop Viganò: The plan of the Great Reset makes use of the
mainstream media as an indispensable ally: the media corporations are
almost all actively part of the deep state and know that the power that will
be guaranteed to them in the future depends exclusively on their slavish
adherence to its agenda . . .

Years ago, those who spoke of the New World Order were called conspiracy
theorists. Today, all of the world's leaders, including Bergoglio, speak with
impunity about the New World Order, describing it exactly in the terms that
were identified by the so-called conspiracy theorists . . . Families without
father and mother, polyamory, sodomy, children who can change their sex,
the cancellation of Religion and the imposition of an infernal cult, abortion
and euthanasia, the abolition of private property, a health dictatorship, a
perpetual pandemic . . .

1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

6. You have repeatedly warned that the 'deep state' and 'deep church' have
colluded to plot in various ways to overthrow Benedict as well as President
Trump. Besides Theodore McCarrick, who else is behind this infernal
alliance, and how do Catholics undermine and expose it?

Archbishop Viganò: It is apparent that McCarrick acted on behalf of the


deep state and the deep church, but he certainly did not do it alone. All of
his activity suggests a very efficient organizational structure composed of
people whom McCarrick had promoted and covered by other accomplices.

The events that led to the resignation of Benedict XVI still need to be
clarified, but one of the members of the deep church, the deceased Cardinal
Danneels admitted that he was a part of the so-called Saint Gallen Mafia,
which essentially worked to bring about the "springtime of the Church"
which John Podesta, Hillary Clinton's chief of staff, wrote about in his emails
published by Wikileaks. Thus there is a group of conspirators who have
worked and still work in the heart of the Church for the interests of the
elite. Full story: thegatewaypundit.com

Comment: The enmity between Judaeo-Communism and Judaeo-


Catholicism cannot be hidden, and neither of them of God. The fraudulent
election, criminality of the UN, WEF, and corrupt national leaders worldwide,
brooding depression, unemployment, unprecedented techtonic activity,
distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring, collapse
of the US dollar and world economy will see "the image of the
beast" Vatican II rise against Judaeo-Communism.

China reacts to storming of US Capitol


January 6, 2021 — Pro-Chinese Communist Party (CCP) commenters are
gleeful at the scenes of chaos in Washington on Wednesday, after US
President Donald Trump's push to overturn the November 2020 election
results culminated in armed supporters breaching the US Capitol. Many in
China have made comparisons to so-called color revolutions in Eastern
Europe and Central Asia, which Beijing paints as US-backed attempts to
topple hostile governments. [Correct, run by Jorge Soros, the NED, CIA and
kindred spirits].

The belief that the United States would collapse like the Soviet Union has
circulated among members of the Chinese elite since the mid-2000s,
especially after the 2008 financial crisis. Under President Xi Jinping, Chinese
officials have been encouraged to study the Soviet collapse closely as an

www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 5/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

example of what mistakes China should avoid.

The scenes in Washington, so reminiscent of the Russian parliamentary


violence of the 1990s, will only encourage such convictions, as has the
botched US response to the coronavirus pandemic. It's hard to say that
they're entirely wrong, given the precarious state of US democracy—but the
perception also likely to encourage riskier challenges to US global power
and more aggression from Beijing. [The US is not and has never been a
democracy, it WAS a constitutional republic until the 2020 Presidential
Election wherein criminals, the Democratic (sic) Party and corrupt
lawmakers demolished the national foundation].

Meanwhile, many prominent anti-CCP figures in the diaspora remain Trump


backers. Under Xi, the destruction of China's online civil society means that
relatively liberal pro-US voices have disappeared, leaving space for
conspiracists, grifters, and fanatics. The anti-CCP religious movement Falun
Gong remains at the core of the new Trumpist media through the Epoch
Times newspaper.

While eclipsed by the physical assault on Congress, the attempts by


Republican figures such as Sens. [no good] Ted Cruz and Josh Hawley to
challenge the election results and support Trump's delusions also do real
damage to the US image. Both have been prominent opponents of the
CCP, but it's now easy for Beijing's supporters to point to their hypocrisy in
undermining democracy at home while claiming to promote it abroad. Full

into the Chinese Communist regime's role in this subversion of America; a

We are at War

1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

January 9, 2021 — We are at war . . . We, the common people, are at war
against an ever more authoritarian and tyrannical elitist Globalist system,
reigned by a small group of multi-billionaires, that planned decades ago to
take power over the people, to control them, reduce them to what a minute
elite believes is an "adequate number" . . . and to digitize and robotize the
rest of the survivors, as a sort of serfs . . . Welcome to the age of the
transhumans if we allow it.

That's why vaccination is needed in warp speed, to inject us with transgenic


substances that may change our DNA, lest . . . a critical mass may become
conscious—and change the dynamics. Because dynamics are not
predictable, especially not in the long-term . . . "anti-human" dystopian
situations we have allowed our governments to bestow on us . . . we are
confronted with totally illegal and oppressive rules, all imposed under the
pretext of "health protection".

Non-obedience is punishable by huge fines; military and police enforced


rules: Mask wearing, social distancing, keeping within the allowed radius of
our "homes," quarantining, staying away from our friends and families . . .
Slice by tiny slice of human rights and civil rights have been cut off under
false pretexts . . . lies by these small groups of elitists—by the Globalists, in
their thirst for endless power and endless greed . . . their time has come—
either to be judged against international human rights standards, war
crimes and crimes against humanity . . . or to disappear . . .

What more may they get in turn for trying to subvert their friends . . . a
vax-certificate without having been vaxxed by the toxic injections, maybe
by a placebo—opening the world of travel and pleasurable activities to them
as "before" . . . in this 2020/2021 winter flu-season, the flu has all but
disappeared . . . folded into Covid to fatten and exaggerate the Covid
statistics. It's a must, dictated by the Globalists, the "invisible" top echelon,
whose names may not be pronounced. Governments have to comply with

Pig Patent? Monsanto's Efforts to claim Ownership


January 6, 2021 — In February 2005, Monsanto, a multinational
agricultural and biotechnology company that holds patents on a variety of
products, including biotech seeds, bred wheat, soy plants, and advanced
traits and technologies for crops, sought a patent for a pig.

More specifically, they sought a patent on the lifespan of pigs that are bred
using a natural selection method to produce animals that grow faster and
produce more pork than their normally bred counterparts. But can you
patent a combination of techniques that farmers may have been using for
centuries? Monsanto filed its pig patent application with the World
Intellectual Property Organization (WIPO) in Geneva, Switzerland. The
company claimed that it would specifically patent a gene marker for a pig
trait, and sought ownership rights in more than 160 countries, including the
United States. It sought to patent the methods behind this breeding as well
as the eventual herds and offspring that would result. . . Full

Beauty for Ashes – Part IV


The visions of the Millennium Kingdom of Israel as seen by John
in Revelation 21:1 – 22:5 are portrayed in Old Testament symbols that
remain meaningful to the Christian dispensation. Ezekiel recorded his vision
of the Kingdom in symbols that would remain familiar to those of the
Hebrew dispensation from his day unto their fulfillment in Daniel's
Seventieth Week.

Ezekiel 40:1-2, "In the twentieth-fifth year of our Babylonian captivity, in


the beginning of the year 574BC, in the tenth day of the month Nisan, in
the fourteenth year after Jerusalem was taken, in the same day the hand of
the Lord was upon me, and brought me in visions of God into the land of
Israel, and set me down upon a very high mountain, on the south of which
was a city".

Ezekiel sees Israel restored to the Promised Land. Not from their
captivity in Babylon but from captivity to sin. This is the 144,000 in the
millennium. The "very high mountain" is Zion; the city on its southern
aspect is New Jerusalem, the Bride of David's greater Son.

Isaiah 2:2-4, "And it shall come to pass in the last days, that the mountain
of the Lord's House shall be higher than all mountains, and shall be exalted
above the hills; and all peoples shall stream to it. And they will encourage
one another to walk thither and say, Come, and let us go up to the
mountain of the Lord, to the House of the God of Jacob; and He will instruct
us in His ways, and we will walk in His paths: for out of Zion shall go forth
the law, and the Word of the Lord from Jerusalem" (Ezekiel
17:23; 20:40; 37:22; Isaiah 2:2-3; Amos 9:11; Zechariah 14:10). And He
shall judge between nations, and shall rebuke many people: and they shall
beat their swords into plowshares, and their spears into pruning hooks:
nation shall not lift up sword against nation, neither shall they learn war any
more".

Psalm 48:1-3, "Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praised in the City of our
God in His holy mountain. Beautiful for situation, the joy of all the earth is
Mount Zion, the City of David. On its northern side are Mount Moriah and
the Millennium Temple. God is known in her palaces as her sure
defence" (Matthew 5:35).

When John first saw the vision in Revelation 1, the City was signified by the
www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 11/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

golden lamp stands that stood before God in the southern side of the
sanctuary. Ezekiel saw it after the Gentile dispensation was complete when
the sanctuary has been transformed into the "very high mountain" like
Mount Sinai wherein no profane thing might touch its border (Exodus
19:12-13; Revelation 21:27; 22:14-15). Solomon's Temple signified the
fifteen hundred-mile high pyramid-shaped holy mountain of God's
dwelling place on earth; the golden lampstand that stood in the
south is transformed into the City of God or Bride of Christ on the
southern side of the mountain, while the table of showbread that
stood on the north side of the sanctuary representing Israel is here
transformed into the millennium temple on the northern side of the
same mountain or Kingdom.

God manifested His Presence in the Pillar of Fire and Cloud in the Holy of
Holies of Solomon's Temple on Mount Moriah. His Presence led the Israelites
from Egypt to Canaan (Exodus 13:21-22), covering them from the heat of
day as it will cover New Jerusalem throughout eternity (Psalm
105:39; Isaiah 4:5). It became a fire by night, giving light to the Israelites
but "was a cloud and darkness" to the pursuing Egyptians. In the vision
of Ezekiel 10:4 and 11:23 the Presence departed the Temple at the
commencement of the "times of the Gentiles" and was absent from the
temple restored by Zerubbabel and the temple beautified by King Herod.
Throughout this period the temple suffered frequent desecration by the
heathen and a corrupt priesthood with the climax to come in Daniel's
Seventieth Week when Satan, incarnate in "that man of sin," will exalt
himself in a new temple atheist David Ben Gurion called "a shrine of the
prophets [Moses, Jesus, and Mohammed] to serve the federated union of all
continents . . . the seat of the supreme court of Mankind, and Jesus' "the
abomination of desolation" (Isaiah 14:13; Daniel 9:26-27; II Thessalonians
2:1-4).

When Israel's millennium temple is reinstructed and built without


hands in one day Satan will ensure "there shall not be left here one of
those 144,000 fleshy tables of stone upon another that is not thrown
down" in martyrdom (Ezekiel 43:2; Revelation 6:11; 14:1-5, 1-13; 15:2-4).
But they will return glorified, their joy will anoint the Most Holy Place; the
Shekinah will return and not just the temple precinct but the whole of
the "very high mountain" of Zion shall be sacrosanct (Isaiah 11:6-9; 65:21-
25; Matthew 19:28-30).

Israel's deliverance and glorification will consummate the deepest


humiliation (Zechariah 12:1 – 13:9): "And the Lord shall be king over all
the earth: in that day He will be the only Lord, and His Name the only one.
All the land shall be changed into a plain from Geba to Rimmon south of
www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 12/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

Jerusalem: but Jerusalem will rise on its site from Benjamin's Gate as far as
the place of the First Gate to the Corner Gate, and from the tower of
Hananeel to the king's winepresses. And men will live in it, and there shall
be no more curse for Jerusalem will dwell securely" (Zechariah 14:9-
11). "The Most Holy always represented the Church, the Tabernacle.
And the last thing was to be done was to anoint the Most Holy;
that's the Millennial Tabernacle that He'll live in during the
millennial, that we'll live in" (61-0806, The Seventieth Week of
Daniel, par 48).

Nebuchadnezzar "saw a [pyramid-shaped] stone cut out of the


mountain without human hands. It smote the image of his dream
on its feet of iron and clay and broke them into pieces. Then the
iron, the clay, the brass, the silver, and the gold, all together were
broken in pieces, and became like the chaff of the summer
threshing floors; and the wind carried them away so no trace of
them could be found: and the stone that smote the image became
a great mountain that filled the whole earth." In revealing the
interpretation of the king's dream through His prophet Daniel, God
said: "When Papal Rome rules Satan's New World Order, the God
of heaven shall set up a kingdom which shall never be destroyed:
nor shall its sovereignty be left to other people, but it shall break
and crush and consume all these kingdoms, and it shall stand
forever" (Daniel 2:34-35, 44; I Peter 2:4-8). So what is this holy mountain?
It is the spoken Word of God made manifest by the virgin birth through
which God had the pre-eminence of one Man to declare Him and redeem an
election from Adam's race. As they come under Christ's Headship, they
reflect His glory by manifesting the Word for their age, and are changed into
the same image from glory to glory, in proportion to the measure of Spirit
revealed to their day (II Corinthians 3:18). Once Christ's end-time Bride
comes into the unity of the faith and is under His pre-eminence He will
manifest the fullness of the Godhead through her in the manifestation of the
Sons of God and impart grace for translation faith: then He will take us
Home. After the Wedding Supper, we shall return to earth as that City
descending from God out of heaven and after the millennium when earth is
restored to Edenic perfection we will live and reign upon that great
mountain. This is God's threefold purpose of Colossians 1:15-29.

One of the seven angels that had the Seven Vials of wrath to pour upon the
nominal church carried John, who represents us, Christ's end-time Bride, in
the Spirit to that "great and high mountain" as the Spirit of the Lord
transported Ezekiel in his vision (Ezekiel 40:2). This angel was William
Branham (1909-1965) who showed John a preview of our return to earth
as "the City of the Great King" (Malachi 4:5-6; Revelation 10:7; 17:1; 21:9-
www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 13/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

10).

God brought Ezekiel to the City, New Jerusalem, by vision. In the flesh the
prophet was in Babylon, on Nisan 25, 574BC but he was caught up into the
Spirit in the Lord's Day to a time approaching the midst of Daniel's
Seventieth Week just as Christ's Bride was caught up into the Spirit in the
Lord's Day after the Laodicean Church Age ended in March, 1963
(Revelation 4).

Ezekiel 40:3-4, "The Lord brought Ezekiel to the City of God, and there was
a Man, whose appearance was like brass (Daniel 10:5-6; Revelation
1:15), with a line of flax in his hand (for long measures), and a reed (for
short lengths), standing in the gate (Revelation 10:4 – 11:1). And He said,
Son of man, look with your eyes, and hear with your ears, and set your
heart on all that I shall show you; for you are brought here to see these
things then declare to the house of Israel all that you see."

The identity of this Man interests us because Brother Branham's


ministry "revealed the Son of man" (Luke 17:28-30; Hebrews 4:12; 13:8),
by discerning the thoughts and intents of the heart. When John saw "one
like the Son of Man . . . in the midst of the saints drawn out from all seven
Church Ages he fainted: Jesus laid His right hand on him, identified Himself
and said, Fear not; I am the first and the last" (Revelation 1:13-15). John
represents Christ's end-time Bride, after two years he saw and heard
Brother Branham display the Messianic sign in the vision of Revelation 21:8-
15 revealing "Jesus Christ the same yesterday and today and forever," he
fell at his feet, but Brother Branham said "Don't do that! I am a prophet like
you, worship God".

When God expelled Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden, He set
cherubim and a flaming sword at the East Gate. It was via the Eastern Gate
that Ezekiel saw the Spirit of the Lord depart Solomon's temple, and by this
Gate He sees Him enter His new temple for the millennium, a temple not
made with hands. Christ's Bride stands in the gate of the City where in
ancient times judgments were made, for God will judge the world by Christ
and His Bride (Matthew 19:28; John 5:27; Acts 17:31; I Corinthians
6:2; Revelation 21:12).

Judgment is signified in Revelation 1:13-16, Ezekiel 40:3-4 and Ephesians


6:14 where the Bride is girt about the breast with Truth. In Revelation
11:1-2, "A reed as a measuring rod [of the Absolute of the open Book
of Revelation 10] is given to John [who represents the end-time Bride]: and
Christ said, Rise, and measure the temple of God and the altar of incense,
and all [the sanctified blood Israelites] who worship inside. But omit the
www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 14/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

outer court, and measure it not; for it is given over to the Gentiles: and
they shall tread the holy City under foot forty-two months." That is, for the
first three-and-a-half years of Daniel's Seventieth Week in which God's
Covenant in Christ is reconfirmed to Israel (Daniel 12:6-7; Revelation
12:14; 13:5).

God's standard is incarnate in Christ's end-time Word-Bride against


whom He is measuring or judging the faith and character of 144,000
Israelites who will constitute His millennial temple by the
unbending reed of THUS SAITH THE LORD of the fullness of His
Word by which she was called and chosen—without a Mediator.

Let's confirm the identity of this symbolic Man in Daniel 10:4-6. "In the
twenty-fourth day of Nisan, as I was by the side of the great river Hiddekel,
which is the Tigris; I lifted up my eyes, and looked, and saw a Man clothed
in linen, whose loins were girded with pure gold of Uphaz: His body also was
a golden lustre like yellow serpentine, His face looked like lightning, His
eyes were like flaming torches, His arms and His feet shone like polished
brass, and the sound of His Words was like the voice of a multitude".

This is the same Being we saw at an earlier stage in the development of this
prophecy. It is the heavenly Bridegroom of the future Bride of Christ
afterwards revealed to John and Ezekiel as New Jerusalem, the dwelling-
place of God. As Brother Branham said, this symbolic man of brass was
so "like unto the Son of Man" that through the invisible marriage union the
two have become one as Jesus prayed in John 17:21-26.

Revelation 21:9-10, 15, "One of the seven angels who had the Seven Vials
full of the seven last plagues, came and spoke with me, saying, Come with
me! I will show you the Bride, the Lamb's wife. And he carried me away in
the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me that great city, the
holy Jerusalem, descending out of heaven from God. [This is the same
vision as Ezekiel 40:2 only the focus of that vision was on
the 144,000 Israelites in the restored theocracy of the millennium]. And he
who spoke with me had a golden reed to measure the City, and its gates
and its wall." The golden reed is the Absolute of God's unchanging Word and
signifies the eternal quality of God's elect.

The angel with the Vial was Brother Branham. Only Brother Branham's
ministry that restored the apostolic faith and finished the mystery of God
could define the City which is the Bride of all Ages, the Lamb's Wife (Malachi
4:5-6; Revelation 10:7). He preached the same revelation as Paul by which
God will judge the world by Jesus Christ—"the full measure of the stature of
the perfect Man" (Acts 17:31; Romans 16:25; Ephesians 4:13). When the
www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 15/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

Prophet was translated beyond the curtain of time, and met some of his
Laodicean converts, he declared, "Everything Paul preached, I preached
exactly the same." They replied, "We're resting on that".

Measuring the City


defines the harmony of
Word on Word in
perfecting the saints and
building the Body as the
revelation of Christ was
delivered through the
Church Ages, "here a
little and there a little,
that speaking the Truth
in love we may grow up
into Him in all things,
who is Christ the Head,
from whom the whole
body fitly joined together
and compacted by that
which every joint supplies, according to the effectual working in the
measure of each individual, causes the growth of the Body for the building
up of itself in love" (Ephesians 4:15-16). The diagram lays out God's ground
plan for building His New Jerusalem, the Body of Christ or stature of the
perfect Man revealed in Revelation 1-3 showing the Word or measure of
Spirit by which God called and manifested the "lively stones" ordained for
each division of the City. From "An Exposition of the Seven Church
Ages" and "The Revelation of the Seven Seals" we discern who was
accounted worthy to pass judgment and enter through its gates and
foundation stones which bear the names of Israel's patriarchs, and twelve
apostles on whose doctrine it is built. In the renewed heavens and renewed
earth the patriarchal and apostolic fathers will sit in the City gates to judge
and receive tithes from the "saved" dwelling around the circumference of
earth (Matthew 19:28; Revelation 21:24-26). Brother Branham defined the
proportions of the City wall which signify 144,000 elect Israelites
(Revelation 21:14-20). Like us, they will be built upon the foundation of the
apostles and prophets, Jesus Christ Himself being the chief cornerstone
(Ephesians 2:20). This is our Absolute, the golden reed of the fullness of the
Word possessed by His Bride (Revelation 11:1-2).

The Vials pour out a temporary judgment by the angel's Message to try
nominal believers and sift the un-believers of the Message to their Age from
the foolish virgin who are justified and sanctified yet dilatory or never heard
the revelation of the "present Truth" that alone can quicken a soul to new
www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 16/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

birth. We know from Revelation 1:1 and 10:1-4 that the revelation of Jesus
Christ was given by God to Jesus after His ascension, and that He revealed
it to only one man—William Branham—the angel to the seventh or
Laodicean Church Age. This Man in Ezekiel 40:2-4 was Jesus Christ Who
explained to Ezekiel that the showbread in the north of the sanctuary
represented the 144,000 elect Israelites signified as the millennium temple
and that the holy City, New Jerusalem south in the sanctuary symbolized
the Bride of Christ.

When John, who represents YOU and ME personally, saw Christ's parousia in
the revelation of the Seven Seals (after the close of mediation in Revelation
3:22) he was about to write the hidden mystery when a Voice from heaven
commanded: "Seal up those things which the seven thunders uttered, and
write them not . . . but in the days of the voice of the prophet-messenger to
the Laodicean Church Age, the mystery of God should be
finished" (Revelation 10:7). ". . . at the end of the third chapter of the
Book of Revelations, the Church is taken from the earth up into
glory (Revelation 4:1). And I have [been] trying with all my heart to get
this to the people that they are expecting something to happen that they
see wrote in the Book of Revelation [chapters 6:1 – 19:21] when it
was not applied in the Church Age. And we're nearer the end than you
think" (61-0806m, The Seventieth Week of Daniel, par. 31). If YOU are in
Christ's end-time Bride YOU were in glory at the close of Laodicea
on about March 8, 1963, and present in theophany along with the
Church Age saints when Jesus claimed the Book and loosed its
Seals, commencing with the unwritten Seventh Seal. You
must understand this because from that instant redemption
was over: Christ's end-time Bride and the 144,000 elect Israelites were fully
redeemed in Jesus on Calvary.

Revelation 5:1-14, "And . . . . (insert your name) . . . saw in the right hand
of Him that sat on the throne a Book written within and on the backside,
sealed with Seven Seals. And . . . . (insert your name) . . . saw a strong
angel proclaiming with a loud voice, Who is worthy to open the Book, and to
loose the Seals thereof? And no man in heaven, or in earth, neither under
the earth, was able to open the Book, neither to look thereon. And . . . .
(insert your name) . . . wept much, because no man was found worthy to
open and to read the Book, neither to look thereon. And one of the elders
said unto me, Weep not: behold, the Lion of the tribe of Juda, the Root of
David, has prevailed to open the Book, and to loose the Seven Seals
thereof."

"And . . . . (insert your name) . . . beheld, and, lo, in the midst of the
throne and of the four living creatures, and in the midst of the elders, stood
www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 17/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

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. And He came and took
the Book out of the right hand of Him that sat upon the throne. And when
He had taken the Book, the four living creatures and the twenty-four and
elders fell down before the Lamb, every one of them having harps, and
golden vials full of odours, which are the prayers of saints. And they sung a
new song saying, You are worthy to take the Book, and to open the Seals
thereof: for You were slain and have redeemed us to God by Your blood out
of every kindred and tongue and people, and nation [of Adam's race]; and
have made us kings and priests unto our God: and we shall reign on the
earth. And . . . . (insert your name) . . . saw, and . . . . (insert your name) .
. . heard the voice of many angels round about the throne and the living
creatures and the elders: and the number of them was ten thousand times
ten thousand, and thousands of thousands [and I recognized you, (young,
and not one hair out of place); saying with a loud voice, Worthy is the Lamb
that was slain to receive power, and riches, and wisdom, and strength, and
honour, and glory, and blessing. And every creature which is in heaven, and
on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that
are in them, heard me, (you, too), saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory,
and power, be to Him that sits upon the throne, and to the Lamb forever
and ever. And the four living creatures said, Amen. And the twenty-four
elders fell down and worshipped Him that lives forever and ever".

Can you remember that?

The angel to Laodicea and the one man to whom Jesus revealed the
Seven Seals was William Branham, he led John throughout the Book
of Revelation. Like Ezekiel, John was caught up in the Spirit into the Lord's
Day while in the flesh he was on Patmos Island. In the Spirit John saw
visions of the future and heard Brother Branham teach "those things which
the seven thunders uttered" (Daniel 12:4, 9).

Like Daniel, John could not comprehend everything signified by Old


Testament symbols, and was forbidden to transcribe the words of the voices
of the seven thunders (which are the mysteries hidden under the Seven
Seals), he recorded the symbols he saw and the words of the angel, William
Branham, "to show to God's servants things that must shortly come to
pass" (Revelation 1:1).

God always foretells things before they occur and believers through the
ages, unable to grasp the full significance of the symbols nonetheless held
them to be true. In this last day, "time [or delay occasioned by Christ's
mediation while the Book was sealed] is no longer" as the saints
predestinated to the PART-Word Body of the seven Church Ages have all
www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 18/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

been baptized into their places in the Body.

Since the mystery of God is finished the end-time Bride with the fullness of
the Word is without a Mediator yet she has no excuse for ignorance for she
establishes her place in the Word and her position in the body by applying
the mystery of the seven thunders to the symbols in the Book and fulfilled
history. Hereby we identify which Scriptures and therefore which divisions of
the Body are already fulfilled, and recognize our day and its Message. And
since Israel is God's timepiece we can measure the lateness of the hour, the
nearness of the first resurrection and Daniel's Seventieth Week.

Ezekiel 40:5 – 42:20 is God's instruction to Ezekiel for building the


millennium temple. The temple is where God revealed His glory to
Israel and dwelt in their midst. He now wishes to reveal His glory in the
Temple of Christ and His Bride to Israel's elect 144,000, making them His
millennium temple where we can dwell in love once their stony hearts have
been converted into hearts of flesh. The Bride is already manifested Word
and in Revelation 11:1-2 we apply the Absolute of the revealed Word to
measure and choose the 144,000 who will be our personal servants.

Ezekiel's instructions show Israel that the way into the Presence
where the likeness of the glory of God is revealed is by a total
separation from all uncleanliness. His Book shows the Presence of the
Spirit of the Lord departing Solomon's temple prior to its destruction by His
servant, Nebuchadnezzar, and the commencement of "the times of the
Gentiles." These chapters prophesy how His Presence will return to Israel in
their revelation of the 'parousia' Coming of their King and High Priest Jesus
Christ with His Queen to restore the kingdom to Israel after the "Gentile
dispensation." They explain how Christ's Bride is the "lively" stones from
which the temple was built in seven stages signified by the seven rests or
sabbaths of seven Church Ages that are the antitype of Israel's Pentecostal
feast (Matthew 3:9). Individually each member of the Bride entered into the
Holy of Holies through the riven veil of Christ's Body by three successive
stages of grace during Israel's blindness (Ezekiel 40:24-37), and the
Shekinah took its abode in each one of us as signified at the inauguration of
Christ's mystic Body on the Day of Pentecost (Acts 2:1-4). Revelation
11:2 demonstrates conclusively that once the Gentile dispensation has
ended there will be no further opportunity for nominal or false Christians, or
Gentiles of any station, including so-called Jews, to pass beyond the outer
court; under the Old Testament they would have been killed by the temple
guards (Genesis 3:24).

On the northern side of the sanctuary were tables for slaying and dividing
sacrificial beasts (Ezekiel 40:39-43). Like the bodies of those beasts that
www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 19/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

were flayed and inspected for imperfections before acceptance, Israel will be
sifted, purged in the fire of afflictions as silver and gold are refined, and
crushed like grapes (Amos 9:9-10; Malachi 3:2-6; Revelation 14:12-20).
This signifies Israel will enter the Presence through the Great Tribulation.
The Temple itself stood on the east of Mount Moriah, and when Titus
destroyed Jerusalem, judgment began at the sanctuary of the Temple
(Ezekiel 9:6; I Peter 4:17).

During the tribulation, the beast will establish his headquarters in Jerusalem
and profane the new "shrine of the prophets" built on Mount Moriah (Daniel
11:45; Isaiah 14:13). His judgment and the slaughter at Armageddon will
also come from the north, the side of the sanctuary that held the table of
showbread that represents Israel. Under the Sixth Seal it will come upon
the Christ-rejecting world in general; under the Seventh Trumpet it will
afflict Israelites and Israel, while the curse of the Seventh Vial will be
poured on the Vatican and (once) Protestant United States by God's servant
Gog the self-styled Jews' colony of Russia, and on self-styled Christians to
separate the foolish virgin from the denominational harlots (Revelation 7:1-
3; 17:1 – 18:20).

As John represents Christ's end-time Bride throughout the Book of


Revelation, Ezekiel represents an election of the whole nation of
Israel throughout his Book. In chapter 4:4-6 he lay on his left side three
hundred and ninety-days representing Israel, and on his right side forty
days to represent Judah. In chapter 42:20, the angel instructs Ezekiel as
Israel's proxy into the revelation of the Glory. Commanded to define the
sanctuary and its 144,000 worshipers, he measures a thick wall surrounding
and separating the sanctuary from the profane place (Ezekiel 41:9), which
in John's symbolical temple is to be given over to the heathen, for in the
holy City, New Jerusalem, nothing unclean can approach the Presence
(Zechariah 14:4; Matthew 24:30-31; Revelation 21:27; 22:14-15).

The plan for Ezekiel's temple requires an area far greater than Mount Moriah
where the temples of Solomon, Zerubbabel and Herod once stood. Ezekiel is
translated in the Spirit by a vision into the Lord's Day where his Angel
guide, Jesus Christ (Ezekiel 40:1-4; Revelation 10:1, 9-10; 11:1-2)—meets
him and measures the Temple. At the climax of his tour of instruction,
which in reality is the revelation of the Feast of Trumpets to Israel by the
two Hebrew Prophets of Zechariah 4, Matthew 24:31 and Revelation 11,
Ezekiel sees the Shekinah returning by the gate whence it departed
(Revelation 7:1-2).

The Babylonian Empire was identified as the head of gold in "My


servant" Nebuchadnezzar's dream. God called him to sanctify Israel
www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 20/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

(Jeremiah 27:6). The seven judgment angels of Ezekiel 9 are the seven-fold
Spirit of God that destroyed the temple under "the legs of iron." God's
Roman servant, Titus, and her globalist allies are portrayed as the feet of
iron and clay under the incarnate Beast. The judgments under Rome were
signified to John in Revelation 8:1 – 11:15 as the Seven Trumpet angels
who pronounce judgments upon Israel for rejecting the Gospel trumpets
sounded by seven earthly angels to the Church Ages through the
Pentecostal feast.

Revelation 8:5, "And the angel took the censor, and filled it with fire of the
altar (as in Ezekiel 10:7), and cast it into the earth: and there were voices,
and thunderings, and lightnings, and an earthquake."

These coals from the altar of incense in the heavenly Sanctuary had
sanctified and offered back to God the revelation of His Word made flesh in
the Bride of each age. The evening service of the Pentecostal feast being
ended, the cinders are cast down to earth, cleansing the heavenly
Sanctuary of their dross, and the Gentiles having shut their ears to "sound
doctrine" have rejected His 'parousia' Coming (II Timothy 4:3-4; Hebrews
6:4-8; Revelation 3:20) and will soon unite with the State to force Rome's
mark of the beast. The fire cast down upon earth signifies judgment that
will commence with the earthquake at the close of grace.

Ezekiel 9 and 10:2 prophesy the first of Seven Trumpet judgments on Israel
under the New Testament dispensation. Jesus came to His own and His own
received Him not. The First Trumpet judgment came upon Israel a
generation after they rejected Calvary in AD30, Pentecost and Paul's
Message to the Ephesian Church Age. Jesus foretold this destruction in the
parable of the marriage of the king's son (Matthew 22:7). Notice how the
six destroying angels were preceded and controlled by the Writer with the
ink horn, the sealing Angel or Holy Ghost. When Titus scattered the coals
over Jerusalem in AD70 all that heeded Jesus' warning and were sealed with
the Holy Ghost escaped (Matthew 24:15-21; Ezekiel 9:4).

Israel thought God was inexorably bound to the city and temple. However
God doesn't dwell in buildings made with hands, but in the spoken Word
Body of Christ and His Bride. Ezekiel 9 portrayed Him in the midst of the
destroying angels. God was able to destroy both the city and its temple and
depart. Very soon He will depart from the Gentiles, taking His Bride Home
to the Wedding Supper while two Hebrew prophets will "set His hand again
the second time to recover the remnant of His people" (Isaiah 11:11).

Ezekiel 10:18-19, "Then the Glory of the Lord departed from above the
entrance of the temple, and stood over the cherubim. And they lifted up
www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 21/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

their wings, and mounted up from the earth in Ezekiel's sight when they
went out with the wheels beside them, and stood at the entrance of the
East Gate of the outer court that opened into the city; and the Glory of the
God of Israel was over them".

Ezekiel, 11:22-23, "Then the cherubim lifted up their wings, with the wheels
beside them; and the Glory of the God of Israel was over them. And the
Shekinah rose up from over the midst of the city, and stood over the Mount
of Olives to the east of the city".

The departure of the Glory from the Temple to the Mount of Olives
symbolized the Lord's abandonment of His Temple and His people to
their foes and ultimate destruction. The Shekinah was never again seen
in the temple but six hundred years later took residence in the Temple of
Jesus Christ. When John baptized Him in the River Jordan He became the
Temple in which the Glory of God is revealed. Since Pentecost, we too are
the Temple of the Holy Spirit by the baptism with the Holy Ghost, for God
and the soul that is joined together with God is one Spirit (I Corinthians
6:17-19).

Luke 19:37-44, "As Jesus approached Jerusalem [the city of peace] at the
descent of the Mount of Olives, a whole multitude of disciples began to
rejoice and praise God with a loud voice for all the mighty works they had
seen; saying, Blessed be the King Who comes in the Name of the Lord:
there is peace in heaven from the misery of sin; glory in the highest
heaven!"

"Some of the Pharisees from among the multitude said, Master, rebuke your
disciples. But He answered, I tell you that if they should hold their peace,
the stones would immediately cry out".

"And when He was close, He saw the city, and wept loudly over it, saying, If
only you had recognized your day and it's Message which was to reconcile
you to peace with God! But now it is hid from your eyes. For the day is
coming when your enemies shall erect a palisade and surround you, shut
you in on every side (Josephus V. vi.2; xii.2), level Jerusalem to the earth,
dash her children to the ground; and leave not one stone upon another
[that's why in verse 40 He said "the stones will cry out"]—all because you
failed to recognize the time of God's visitation in your Messiah."

Thus Jesus foretold the coming destruction of Jerusalem under


Titus, and those who became Christians remembered His Words:

Luke 21:20-28, "When you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies,


www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 22/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

understand that its desolation is near. Then let those who are in Judea flee
to the mountains; and let those who are inside the city get out; and let not
those who are in the country enter into the City. For these are the days
of God's vengeance upon the enemies in His own house, that all
things which are written may be fulfilled. But woe to those who are
pregnant, and to them that nurse, in those days! for there shall be great
distress in the land, and retribution upon this people."

"And they shall fall by the edge of the sword; and shall be led away captive
into all nations: (Josephus says 1,100,000 were slain and 97,000 taken
prisoner to Egypt and the provinces), and Jerusalem shall be trodden down
by the Gentiles, until the times of the Gentiles are
fulfilled". [Nebuchadnezzar, Alexander, Titus, Chosroes, the Islam, the
Crusaders, the Ashkenazim, Rome and her once Protestant image. Next
Jesus describes events that will happen two thousand years in the future, at
the end of the Gentile dispensation, just before God returns to Israel].

"And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the
stars; and upon the earth distress of nations [bereft of resources,
on account of treacherous IMF usury, and the interdependence
caused by globalization which has bankrupted the nations,
destroying their sovereignty, self-sufficiency and independent
viability via trade agreements like LIMA, GATT, NAFTA, APEC, the EU
and Maastricht; the depression is coming]; the ocean waves will be
roaring, [following the earthquake that sinks Los Angeles], and
men's hearts failing through apprehension," in anticipation of
nuclear warfare before Russia invades America: for Satan will be
cast out from heaven to earth.

"Then Israel shall see the sign of the Son of man [Christ's parousia] coming
in a cloud with power and great Glory. And when these things begin to come
to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draws
nigh".

This Sign of Christ's parousia to Israel will be seen over the Mount of Olives
as described in Zechariah 14:4 and Revelation 7:2. Of course, this will be a
symbol as was Acts 1:9-11, Revelation 1:7 and 10:1-4 to us Gentiles;
Jesus' feet will not literally stand upon the mountain.

Luke 24:50-51, "He led them out of Jerusalem by the Mount of Olives
toward Bethany, and lifted up His hands, and blessed them. And it came to
pass, while He blessed them, He was parted from them, and carried up into
heaven" (Acts 1:7-12).

www.biblebelievers.org.au/nl1137.htm 23/25
1/17/2021 Beauty for Ashes – Part IV

Jesus' departure from Jerusalem was typed by the departure of the


Shekinah from the temple; It went east to the Mount of Olives which
is higher than Jerusalem and affords a view over the whole city
(Ezekiel 11:22). The Presence of the Glory was the sign of God's favour
toward Israel, whilst its absence was the token of His extreme displeasure
(Revelation 11:19; Deuteronomy 31:17-18; Hosea 9:12).

Christ's imminent parousia Coming to Israel will be announced by the


Shekinah, possibly fifth-two days after the sinking of Los Angeles, returning
from the east whence it departed in the form of the Supernatural Cloud
upon the Mount of Olives described in Zechariah 14:4. As for us Gentiles, its
public manifestation appeared and was photographed above Arizona on
February 28, 1963.

Ezekiel 11:8-16 foretells Israel's dispersion among the surrounding nations


and God's blessing upon those of their number who receive correction
through chastisement. It points principally to the Gentile dispensation when
Israel is apostate, having rejected the Atonement. It also speaks of their
gathering and of the regeneration of the 144,000 after the midst of Daniel's
Seventieth Week, when the Glory anoints the Most Holy.

This is Revelation 14:1-5, "I looked, and, lo, the Lamb stood on
the mount Zion, [the Presence returned], and with
Him 144,000, [prior to martyrdom] having His Father's Name
written in their foreheads (Revelation 7:1-8). And I heard a voice
from heaven, as the voice of many waters, and as the voice of a
great thunder: and I heard the voice of harpers harping with their harps:
and they sung as it were a new song before the throne, and before the four
living creatures [God's throne guards which type the 144,000], and the
elders: and no man could learn that song but the 144,000, which were
redeemed from the earth. These are they which were not defiled with
women [churches]; for they are virgins [typed as eunuchs for they are
