Dear Tape Bride,

Now you people in the tapes.

Lord, how can we begin to express what these six little words mean to us, the Bride of Jesus Christ? It is the Revelation of the Message of the hour to us. It is God speaking through His angel messenger telling His Bride, “I know you’ll stay with My Voice. I know what My Word on these tapes will mean to you. I know you will have the Revelation that these Messages I have spoken on the tapes are My Token for today.”

“I have placed My Voice on these magnetic tapes; for these Messages have to wind up the entire Word. There will be thousands times thousands that will hear My Voice on the tapes and will have the Revelation that this is My ministry. It is the Holy Spirit of today. It is My Token Message”

“I have sent out many faithful ministers throughout the world to proclaim My ministry. When they returned, they told Me, ‘We have obeyed Your orders by playing Your tapes. We found people who believed every Word. They have made their own house a church to receive Your Message. We told them, all that would come under Your Token, the Message of the hour, would be saved.’”

It is time where every man must examine and ask himself, what is God’s perfect way for today? The Word of the prophet has not failed one time. It has been proven to be the ONLY truth, the ONLY thing that will unite His Bride.

Whatever he said has happened just exactly the way he said it. The Pillar of Fire is still here with us. The Voice of God is still speaking to us on the tapes. The prophet just told us that God would only pass over when He saw the Token. It is a time of desperation for all to get under that Token Message.

We have seen the great Hand of God in this end-time. He has given us the true Revelation of His Word and it has come under the sign of the Token. Now, while we’re under the sign of the Token, let us come together and take the Communion in desperation; for we know that God is fixing to strike with judgment.

I would like to invite each of you to hear and to have a Communion and Feet Washing Service this Sunday, as we hear the Message: Desperations 63-0901E.

The Message and Communion Service will be on the Voice Radio starting at 5:00 P.M. Jeffersonville time. Please feel free to have your service at 5:00 P.M. in your local time if you wish, as I know it will make it hard for many of our overseas believers to begin their service at that time. There will be a link to a downloadable file of the service.

Bro. Joseph Branham

Exodus 12:11
Jeremiah 29:10-14

Dear Token Bride,

When we come together, we just don’t talk about the Message, we come together to apply the Blood, to apply the Token; and the Token is the Message of the hour! That’s the Message of this day! That’s the Message of this time.

We have applied that Token to ourselves, to our homes, and to our families. We’re not ashamed. We don’t care who knows it. We want everybody to know it, every passerby to see and know: We are Tape People. We are a Tape Home. We are God’s Tape Bride.

Holy Spirit = Token = Message. They are all the same. You cannot separate them. Father, Son, Holy Ghost = Lord Jesus Christ. You cannot separate them. Message = Messenger. No matter what the critics say, THE PROPHET SAID, you cannot separate them.

God is your joy. God is your strength. Knowing this Message, knowing It is the only Truth, knowing It is the Token, that’s our sufficiency. Some might say, “I believe It. I believe It. I believe It’s the Truth. I accept It as the Truth.” That’s all good, but yet It’s got to be applied.

The prophet said this Message is the Token for today. This Message is the Holy Spirit. If you have any Revelation of this Message you can plainly see the hour we are living in. So many are saying, “I believe It. God sent a prophet. It is the Message of the hour,” but boast by saying they do not, and will not, play the very Voice of the Token in their churches.

God didn’t speak through His mighty angel and just say something unless it had a meaning. He told us he taught us by types and shadows. In this Message, the prophet goes into great detail to tell us what Rahab and her family did in order to be SAVED, to become the Bride. He was clear about what she did.

When the tape boys played the “TAPE”…Wait a minute, what did that messenger do? Played a Tape. Then what did she do? Made her home a TAPE CHURCH. She was not ashamed to say, “See that red cord, that means I am a TAPE CHURCH”.

You think if she would have said, “Yes, I believe the messenger and the Message, but we don’t play the Tapes anymore in our church. I have a pastor that says NO, he is just to preach and quote what the tapes say.” You think she would have been saved...???

She applied the token, and her house was saved, or she had perished down there where she was at.

You’ve heard many ministers make excuses about playing the tapes, but most all say: “The prophet never said play the tapes in church.”

The prophet said Rahab made her home a church, and her church played the Tapes. And because she played the Tapes in her church, her, and all her TAPE Church, were under the Token and saved. Every other church perished.

Brothers and sisters, please, I’m not saying a pastor cannot preach this Message, or it’s wrong if he does. In my own way, I’m preaching now through this letter, but open your heart and listen to what the prophet is saying and warning you about. If your pastor is not, or will not, play the tapes in your church by making some kind of excuse; whatever it might be, according to the Word, no matter how much he says “I believe the Message of the hour,” according to what I believe the Word says, the Token, the Message of the hour, is not being applied.

This Sunday, I invite you to come listen with the Branham Tabernacle at 12:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, to the Message: Token 63-0901M. If you can’t join us, play any Token Message, and apply It.

Dear United Bride,

I am so excited, and under such great anticipation, to be a part of all God is doing in our day. God’s thoughts in the beginning are now being fulfilled before our eyes, and we are a part of it.

Throughout the Bible, prophets prophesied and spoke what was going to take place. Sometimes those prophesies didn’t come to pass for hundreds of years later, but when the fullness of time came, it come to pass; for God’s thought spoken through His prophet HAS to come to pass.

The prophet Isaiah said, “a virgin shall conceive”. Every Hebrew family got their little daughter ready to have this baby. They bought it shoes and boots, and little Birdseye, and got ready for the baby to come. Generations passed, but finally God’s Word came to pass.

As a young boy growing up I always wondered, Lord, I see in Your Word that You have always united Your people together to fulfill Your Word. You united Your Hebrew children together by one man, Moses, which led them by the Pillar of Fire to the Promise Land.

When You became flesh and dwelt here on earth, You united Your disciples. You separated them from everything and everyone to reveal Your Word to them. On the day of Pentecost, You once again got Your Church together in one place, in one mind and one accord before You could come and give them Your Holy Spirit.

I thought, how can that be possible today Lord? Your Bride is scattered around the world. Will all the Bride come to Jeffersonville? I can’t see that happening Lord. But Lord, You never change Your program. It’s Your Law, there’s no way of stopping it. How will You do it?

GLORY...TODAY, we can see with our own eyes, and more importantly, BE A PART OF IT: God’s Eternal Word being fulfilled. We are not PHYSICALLY in one place, we’re spread around the world, but the Holy Spirt HAS NOW UNITED HIS BRIDE BY THE VOICE OF GOD. HIS WORD SPOKEN AND RECORDED ON THE TAPES, God’s Absolute for today, is gathering and UNITING HIS BRIDE… AND THERE IS NOTHING THAT CAN STOP IT.

God is uniting His Bride. She is coming together, from the East and the West, and the North and South. There is a uniting time, and that’s on right now. What is She uniting for? The Rapture. Amen!

Uniting time is taking place RIGHT NOW!!! What is uniting us? The Holy Spirit by His Word, His Voice. What are we uniting for? THE RAPTURE!!! And we’re all going and we’re not leaving ONE behind.

God’s getting Her ready. Yes sir, uniting! What is She uniting with? With the Word!

What is the Word for our day? This MESSAGE, HIS VOICE, the Voice of God to His Bride. Not a man. Not men. Not a group. The vindicated, by the Pillar of Fire, VOICE of God on the tapes.

“For all heavens and earth will pass away, but My Word shall never pass away.” She’s uniting Herself with THUS SAITH THE LORD regardless of what any denomination or anybody else says.

Regardless what ANYBODY says, we are uniting with the proven, vindicated Thus Saith The Lord Voice for our day. Not someone’s interpretation; why would we do that? That changes with each man, but the Voice of God on the tapes NEVER CHANGES and It has been proclaimed by the Pillar of Fire Itself to be the Word of God and the Voice of God.

The trouble of it is, with man, he don’t know his leader. Yes, sir. They’ll rally around a denomination, they’ll rally around a bishop or a man, but they won’t rally around the Leader, the Holy Spirit in the Word. See? They say, “Oh, well, I’m afraid I’ll get a little fanatically; I’m afraid I’ll get off on the wrong foot.” Ohhhh, there you are!

This is where the critics point out to their congregations and say, “See, they are lifting up a man, Brother Branham. They are deity believers and are rallying around him, the man, not the Holy Spirit.”

Nonsense, we’re UNITING around THE VINDICATED VOICE OF GOD SPOKEN THROUGH THAT MAN. Remember, that is the man God chose to be His Voice to call out and lead His Bride in this day. That is the ONLY Voice vindicated by God Himself.

But on the contrary, THEY are uniting around MEN. They will NOT play the Voice of God on the tapes in their churches. Can you imagine that??? A minister claiming to believe this Message to be the Message of the hour, Thus Saith The Lord, but find some kind of excuse NOT to play that Voice in their churches, but minister to the people they MUST listen to them and other ministers preach the Word...then they say we’re following a man!!!

We just heard last Sunday what God did to them men!!

We’re getting ready for a Wedding. We’re becoming One with Him. The Word becomes you, and you become the Word. Jesus said, “At that day you’ll know it. All the Father is, I am; and all I am, you are; and all you are, I am. In that day you’ll know that I’m in the Father, the Father in Me, I in you, and you in Me.”

Thank You Lord for the Revelation of Yourself, and ourselves, in our day. Your Bride in making Herself ready by Your Spoken Word. We know we’re in Your perfect Will by staying with Your recorded Word.

I invite the world to listen to the only vindicated Voice of God for our day this Sunday. You’re welcome to join us Sunday at 12:00 p.m., Jeffersonville time, as we hear: 63-0818, The Uniting Time And Sign. If you can’t hook-up and listen with us, pick a tape, ANY TAPE; they are all Thus Saith The Lord, and listen to God’s Word perfect you and make you ready for His soon coming.

Psalm 86:1-11
St. Matthew 16:1-3

 

She’s uniting Herself. She’s getting ready. Why? She is the Bride. That’s right. And She’s uniting Herself with Her Bridegroom, see, and the Bridegroom is the Word. “In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us.”

Dear Acquitted Ones,

Now, there, “they,” not the sinner. “They,” that is, the church of that day, they found fault with the Man Who was the Word. Is that right? They found fault with the Man Who was the Word. Now they find fault with the Word working through the man.

From the beginning the world has turned Him down, rejected Him, refused to stay with His Word by keeping with their traditions, their creeds, their ideas. They have always missed God’s program; God, as a Man, who was the Word, and now the Word working through the man.

But in our day He said, “I will have a small group, a chosen few. They were in Me from the beginning. They will receive Me and believe My Word and the man I have chosen to reveal My Word. He will be My Voice to them.”

“They won’t be ashamed to proclaim My Voice. They won’t be ashamed to tell the world I have come again and have manifested Myself through human flesh as I said I would. This time they won’t worship the man, but they will worship Me, the Word, that will speak through the man. They will love Me and proclaim Me with every fiber of their being.”

“Thus, I have given them all they have need of to become My Bride. I have fortified them with My Word; for they ARE MY WORD made flesh. If they need healing, they speak My Word. If they have any obstacle that hinders them, they speak My Word. If they have a child that has drifted away, they speak My Word. Whatever they have need of, they speak My Word, for they are My Word made flesh in them.”

“They know who they are, for I have revealed Myself to them. They have stayed true and faithful to My Word and are uniting together around My Voice. For they know My Voice, My Word, My Holy Spirit. They know, where the Word is the Eagles will be gathered.”

As His prophet speaks His Word and indicts this generation for the second crucifixion of Jesus Christ and proclaims them doomed, the Bride will be rejoicing. For we know WE ARE His Bride that has accepted and received His Word. We cry out from the depths of our heart and say:

I am Yours, Lord. I lay myself on this altar, just as consecrated as I know how to make myself. Take the world from me, Lord. Take the things from me that’s perishable; give me the imperishable things, the Word of God. May I be able to live that Word so closely, till the Word will be in me, and I in the Word. Grant it, Lord. May I never turn from It.

There is life, and there is death. There is a right way, and there is a wrong way. There is truth, and there is a lie. This Message, this Voice, is God’s perfect provided way for today. Come join a portion of God’s mighty Bride as we gather around His revealed Word and hear the Message: The Indictment 63-0707M.

Dear Brothers & Sisters,

I love the Lord, God’s Word, this Message, His Voice, His prophet, His Bride, more than life itself. They are all ONE TO ME. I never want to compromise on one jot, one tittle, or ONE WORD God wrote in His Word or spoke through His prophet. To me, It is all Thus Saith The Lord.

God thought It, then spoke It to His prophets, and they wrote His Word. Then He sent His mighty angel, William Marrion Branham, to earth in our day so He could reveal Himself in human flesh once again, like He did with Abraham. Then He spoke through His prophet to be the Voice of God to the world, to reveal and interpret all the mysteries that have been hidden from the foundation of the world to His predestinated Bride.

Now, His Bride, YOU, are becoming the Word made flesh; One with Him, His fully restored Word Bride.

I know I am misunderstood in what I say and what I write. May I humbly say as our prophet said, I am not educated and I know I can’t write or speak correctly what I feel in my heart. I do admit it seems like I write too harshly sometimes. When I do, it is not to show disrespect, or to have the wrong attitude or to judge someone, but to the contrary. I do it out of love in my heart for God’s Word.

I want everyone to accept and believe this Message God sent to call out His Bride. I have never felt in my heart or mind that ministers should never preach anymore; it would be going against God’s Word. I am just zealous for the Voice of God on the tapes. I believe it is the most important Voice ALL MINISTRIES must place FIRST before the people. This doesn’t mean they can’t preach, I just want to encourage them to play the tapes in their churches when the people are gathered under that anointing.

Yes, I would love to have the whole world listening to the same Message at the same time around the world. Not because “I” said so, or because “I” chose the tape to listen to, but I feel surely the Bride would see how God has made a way for this to happen in our day.

If we would have the recordings of Jesus speaking today on tape, not Matthew, Mark, Luke or John’s writings of what Jesus said (for they all said it a little different), but could hear Jesus’ Voice, His personality, His hain’t, totes, and fetches with our own ears, would the ministry today say to their church, “We’re not going to play the recording of Jesus in our church. I am called and anointed to preach it, and quote It. You just hear it when you go home.” Would the people stand for that? Sad to say, but that is exactly what they are doing today. There is NO DIFFERENCE, no matter how they white wash it.

To me, Brother Branham gave us an example. He loved when all the churches, homes, or wherever they were, were on the hookup so they could hear the Message all at the same time. He knew they could, and would, get the tapes and hear it later, but he wanted them united and hearing the Message all at the same time….TO ME THAT WAS GOD SHOWING HIS BRIDE WHAT WOULD TAKE PLACE IN OUR DAY AND WHAT TO DO.

Every true Message-believing minister will agree there is nothing greater than sitting under the anointing of the Voice of God, which has been recorded and placed on the tapes. The Bride will believe, and have the Revelation, that this Message is God’s Word for today. I can only judge by the Word, but anyone who would not say this Message is their Absolute has no Revelation of the Word for today, thus, how could they be His Bride?

It’s not just quoting it, preaching or teaching it, but hearing it on the tapes is the ONLY PLACE the Bride can say I believe every Word. This Message is Thus Saith The Lord. What I preach or teach isn’t Thus Saith The Lord, but what the Voice of God says on tapes IS…it is the ONLY Voice vindicated by the Pillar of Fire.

I know there are brothers and sisters that say, and feel, “If you don’t listen to the Message the Branham Tabernacle posts, read Eagle Gathering letters, and listen in your homes at the same time you’re not Bride,” or, “It is wrong to go to church, you have to stay in your home.” THAT IS SO WRONG. I have NEVER thought that, said that, or believe that. That has caused even more separation, hard feelings, and disfellowship among the Bride and the enemy is using that to separate the people.

I never want to separate the Bride, I want to unite the Bride as the Word said WE MUST BE UNITED AS ONE. We shouldn’t be fussing with one another, but there is simply nothing else that can unite us but the Voice of God on the tapes.

We shouldn’t be arguing and telling people what they MUST DO or they are not the Bride, just do as the LORD LEADS YOU. They are still our brothers and sisters. We need to love and respect one another.

Now, don’t fuss. See? Temper breeds temper. First thing you know, you grieve the Holy Spirit away from you, you’ll be fussing back. Then the Holy Spirit takes Its flight. Temper breeds temper.

With what the prophet said here, I never want to grieve the Holy Spirit. I never want to fuss. We can reason together in love, but not fuss. If I have said anything that has offended anyone in what I have written or said, please forgive me, it was not my intention.

As I have expressed before, I feel a calling on my life from the Lord to point the people to the Voice of God for today. Other ministers have other callings and perhaps see things different, Praise the Lord, they are doing what THEY feel led of the Holy Spirit to do. My ministry is to simply tell the Bride, “PRESS PLAY” and “The Voice of God on the tapes is the most important Voice you can hear.” “I believe that the ministry should play the Voice of God on the tapes in their churches.”

The letters that I write each week are for the portion of the Bride that feels they are a part of the Branham Tabernacle. I know many others read them, but I’m only responsible to do as I feel led to do for our church. Each church is sovereign; they must do as they feel led of the Lord to do, that is 100% the Word. I’m not against them, we just disagree. As for me and the Branham Tabernacle, we just want to hear the Voice of God on the tapes.

I do invite the world to join us each week. I encourage them if they can’t join us, to pick a tape, any tape, and press play. They’ll be anointed like never before. Thus, I invite you this week to join us Sunday at 12:00 P.M., Jeffersonville time, as we unite together and hear, 63-0630E Is Your Life Worthy Of The Gospel?
