65-0217 A Man Running From The Presence Of The Lord
Dear Lambs,
What an honor and privilege it is to say, “We are God’s lambs, whom He sent His seventh angel messenger to call out and feed His stored-up and hidden Manna.”
We are satisfied and believe this Message is the Voice of God that has been sent to perfect His Bride. We believe the shuck is pulling away from the wheat, and now His Bride is laying in the Presence of the Son, PRESSING PLAY to ripen.
And that’s what we’re here for, friend, stay in the Presence of the Son till our little group of people here, till it becomes so ripe to Christ, it become bread on His table. That’s what I want it to do.
Anyone that don’t believe that PRESSING PLAY and hearing the vindicated Voice of God speak is the most important Voice you must hear, is a person running from the presence of the Lord.
You have to face up to it, or do something about it. You have got a responsibility, everybody has, and you must face up to these things.
How true and important this quote is for today. There is so much division among the called out of God. Is it more essential to play tapes in church to hear the Voice of God, or is it now more essential for the ministry to minister the Word?
God has called and placed the ministry here to keep the Word before the people. They are Shepherds. The Word teaches this. They are to be respected and honored as men whom God has called and placed.
We cannot, and should not, ever say they are not the Bride. That is WRONG and not according to what the prophet taught us. I’ve heard people say: “If they are not playing the tapes in their churches, they are anti-Word.” You should never say such a thing like that. That shows me you have the wrong spirit.
I’ve heard others have said, “They all must stream with BT or they are out of the will of God”. You should never say such a thing as that. Only God knows who is and who isn’t Bride. That isn’t the spirit of the Bride to say such a thing as that.
Even some of the people that are streaming with BT are saying, “if you go to church to hear the tapes and don’t stream in your home you’re wrong!” That is incorrect brother and sisters. If you’re saying that, STOP, you are wrong. Everyone must do as THEY FEEL LED OF THE LORD TO DO.
Many ministers feel preaching is God’s provided way for today. We just see things different, that’s alright. How many times did Brother Branham make this same comparison? We just heard him on Q&A, when people were talking about Brother Jackson being wrong, he condemned them saying anything against him and his church.
I’m just preaching by way of this letter what I believe is God’s provided way for the Branham Tabernacle. They are our brothers and sisters. They love the Lord and this Message. That is how they feel the Lord is leading them. Praise the Lord.
They see it one way and we see it another, that’s fine. I can’t see it their way and they can’t see mine. To me, there are many ways God has provided, but there is only ONE PERFECT WAY, AND FOR ME, THAT’S PRESSING PLAY.
I pray I am not misunderstood here. Laying on of hands and praying for the people is 100% according to the Word. Anointing with oil and praying for the sick is God’s Word according to the Scripture. Brother Branham preached and taught both to us to be the Word. But I want GOD’S PERFECT WAY HE HAS PROVIDED….JUST BELIEVE BECAUSE GOD SAID SO. That is what I am striving to do.
But now for healing, it’s just God’s mercy that He, “By His stripes you were healed.” Now, first the Word says so, that should be sufficient, but if you don’t believe it in the Word, then there’s gifts in the Church, such as men who are inspired to know how to teach that, that’ll make it so plain to you, that’s, and faith to believe.
I believe in the 5-fold ministry. I believe in God called men to preach and teach the Word. But, I believe hearing the Voice of God on the tapes is God’s PERFECT WAY FOR ME.
In hearing the tapes, I don’t even have to understand, JUST BELIEVE EVERY WORD I HEAR. There is no person, no minister, no other place I can go to where I believe EVERY WORD and place my Eternal destination, but the tapes.
Never before since the beginning of time has God give His people the opportunity and the ability to hear for themselves His Voice speak lip to ear. Every mystery is revealed in the tapes. Every question is answered on the tapes. Everything the Bride needs to be perfected is on the tapes.
Every Word spoken on the tapes is God’s Word. I might not understand or be able to explain everything, but I don’t have to. He just requires me to say AMEN TO EVERY WORD, and the TAPES is the ONLY place I can do that.
But when—when you have to do something different, when you have to stand to your conviction of what you know to be the Truth, there is where the hard part, that’s the rub comes, right there.
I believe with all that is in me, we are in God’s perfect Will and on the ship to Nineveh. I’d love for the world to come sail on our ship with us this Sunday at 12:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, as we hear God speak to His Lambs.

Dear Royal Family,
There is only ONE vindicated place where you can go to hear the Lord speak through His angel and tell you, “Always remember, you are God’s children, a Royal Family with Royal Blood. There’s no better Blood in the world than yours. You are my children, scattered out over the world, that I have begotten to Christ.”
We are God’s Royal Family with Royal Blood running through our veins. Children that has been begotten to Christ by the Voice of God speaking through His mighty prophet. It can’t get better than that my friends.
Brother Branham, will the Bride need to move to Jeffersonville or Arizona to be in the Rapture?
“There’ll be two in a bed; I’ll take one and leave one; and two in a field, and I’ll take one and leave one.” See? So they probably…Across the world, they won’t be gathered in one place to have things in common. But little groups of them will be scattered all over the earth.
So physically, we will not be in one place at one time. But glory to God, He had an even greater plan to bring His Bride together.
We pray for all the churches and the congregations that’s gathered around the—the—the little microphones out across, from the nation, all the way to the West Coast, up into the mountains of Arizona, down into the plains of Texas, way into the East Coast, all across the country, Lord, where they have gathered. Many hours apart, we are in time, but, Lord, we’re together tonight as one unit, believers, waiting for the Coming of the Messiah.
Today, not only is He gathering His Bride from around this country, but He is gathering US from the 7 continents of the world. From Africa to Antarctica. North America and South America, Asia, Australia and Europe. He’s gathering and uniting His Bride as ONE UNIT to hear the Voice of God.
He told us to go to church; even where they teach half the Word, UNTIL we can find a church where they teach THE WHOLE WORD. Praise be to God the Bride has now found that place, the Voice of God on the Tape is the WHOLE WORD.
Whether you’re in your Home Tape church, your church where many families are gathered, or in a hut in the jungles of the Amazon or Africa, wherever you can Press Play to hear the Voice of God speak lip to ear to you, you’ll be in a WHOLE WORD CHURCH.
We have found that whole Word church and we invite you to join us this Sunday at 12:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, as we hear: Questions And Answers #4 64-0830E.

64-0830M Questions And Answers #3
Dear Begotten To Christ,
How can one put in mere mortal words the love and joy that is in our hearts to know the true Revelation of His Word for our day? To think, we had nothing to do with it, but HE, the Great I AM, by His own choosing, predestinated US to have the greatest thing He could give us, THE REVELATION OF HIS WORD FOR OUR DAY.
He waited, till the fullness of time had come, to breathe the breath of life in us, so we could hear Him talk to us and say:
Now, I’ve tried my best to—to—to tell you people and lead you like a daddy would lead his children. You are my children; I have begotten you to Christ through this Gospel that I preach. See? And I—I—I want you to raise up fully matured kids, or—or children. And I want to present you to Christ that day, as Paul said, “A chaste virgin.” There isn’t a thing in that Word but what your heart will punctuate “amen” to it.
God, speaking through His mighty angel, is directing and leading us, the Bride of Jesus Christ. We are His fully mature, chaste virgin, children. And by His amazing grace, we do punctuate every Word we hear with an AMEN! It is the perfect interpretation of the Word with Divine vindication!
- If the Voice we are hearing on the tapes is: the perfect interpretation of the Word, what else does the Bride of Jesus Christ need?...NOTHING!
He has chosen US, His hand-picked little group, to have the true Revelation of His Word for our day. We are the ones He chose to be on earth, in corporal bodies, during the thousand-year Millennium reign.
My friends, let’s just dwell on that a minute.
We will have a glorified body right here on earth. We’ll be eating, drinking, building houses, living just like we do now for a thousand years. It will be our honeymoon where the Bride (US) and the Groom (Lord Jesus Christ) have become ONE.
We are watching and waiting for this glorious time every minute of every day. It’s so close it seems like we can almost touch it. I believe, with all my heart, this is what is happening to us today:
Oh, that spiritual union of Christ and His Church now, when the flesh is becoming Word, and the Word is becoming flesh, manifested, vindicated. Just what the Bible said would happen in this day, it’s happening, day by day. Why, it’s cumulating so fast out there, in those deserts, and things taking place, that I couldn’t even keep up with it. We’re near the Coming of Jesus, to be united with His Church, where the Word becomes the Word.
With each Message we hear, the more Revelation He is giving us. It is cumulating so fast we can’t hardly keep up with It. We’re seeing the Word becoming Word as never before. There is not one shadow of one doubt; by Revelation, we KNOW exactly who we are.
He is uniting His Bride just as He said He would, and we are part of It. We’re seeing It taking place with our own eyes. Others might not see It or understand It. It isn’t for them, IT’S FOR US, HIS BEGOTTEN CHILDREN.
The Bride had questions to ask the prophet.
Is it sufficient to ONLY listen to the Voice of God on the tapes? God answered and said: YES!!
Can our children also get all they need to be the Bride of Christ just by listening to the tapes: YES!!
Thus, all the Bride has need of is ON THE TAPES.
We also know God has provided so many other ways for His children.
“By His stripes you were healed.” Now, first the Word says so, that should be sufficient, but if you don’t believe it in the Word, then there’s gifts in the Church, such as men who are inspired to know how to teach that, that’ll make it so plain to you, that’s, and faith to believe.
We are so thankful God has provided men who are inspired to know how to teach healing and His Word to make it plain to others, but His Bride wants His PERFECT SUFFICIENT PROVIDED WAY. It is all WE NEED.
I’d like to invite you to come join the Branham Tabernacle this Sunday at 12:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, as we hear: Questions And Answers #3 64-0830M.
How wonderful it is to have the Revelation of His Word and to know we are the Word made flesh.
