The Great Shining Light of the Bride Age

GENESIS 1:1-3

     1     ¶ In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.

     2   And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.

     3     ¶ And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.

Notice that the bible begins with creation in verse 1, and then with darkness in verse 2, and then in verse 3 God spoke his word and then there was light, so we notice here that there was no light until the word was spoken – it was the word that produced the light.

***So the light that shone out of that darkness and chaos came by the word of God being spoken, and so we know that God was showing us in prefigure the coming of the Lord right here, because we know who the light of the world is. Jesus said that “I am the light of the world” so right here at the beginning of the bible is the coming of the Lord written here in mystery form.

MATTHEW 28:1-3

     1     ¶ In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

     2   And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.

     3   His countenance was like lightning, and his raiment white as snow:

This reading here is the same as our first reading in Genesis 1– first darkness, then light shining out of the darkness – there was to be a duel sun rise on this first Easter morning, the great shining light of the SUN was rising after a long night of darkness, and the great shining light of the SON of the resurrection of the word was rising also.

MATTHEW 24:27

     27   For as the lightning cometh out of the east (This word lightning means “light shining” it is used as in the lighting of storm clouds on a dark night, but it can also mean the light shining as in the dawning of a new day), and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

ZECHARIAH 14:7

     7   But it shall be one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light.

The Great Shining Light of the Bride Age

Easter Message…

MATTHEW 4:16 – we read this scripture at the combined meeting on Friday – so we will pick up from there…

     16   The people which sat in darkness saw great light; and to them which sat in the region and shadow of death light is sprung up.

If you will notice that this is the same pattern as what we saw in Genesis 1 – first darkness, and then the great light of the word of God came, and that great light was not another candle light of another “church age” light of the seven golden candle sticks, but this light was the light of the SON light rising, and this SON light produced the greatest light that was able to light up the whole world.

So we know that this great shining light was the word of life himself – the Lord Jesus Christ.

JOHN 8:12

     12     ¶ Then spake Jesus again unto them, saying, I am the light of the world: he that followeth me shall not walk in darkness, but shall have the light of life.

We know that there is the SUN light that gives natural life to the natural world of the botany life of the flowers and the trees and the animal kingdom, and then there is the SON light of the truth of the word of God that if we walk in the light by our agreement with the word, then that gives us the light of eternal life.

*The SUN light will give you temporal life in this world, but it will take the SON light to give you eternal life in the world to come.

AMOS 3:3

     3   Can two walk together, except they be agreed?

So to walk in the light is to come into agreement with the word of God that God is revealing in the season that you live in, because that is where the current light is shining, and that is where God is walking in the presentence, and how can two walk together unless that be agreed.

***That is why as long as Enoch walked with God he could never die, and so in the end God just had to take him home to glory without him ever dyeing, showing us what he will do for us in this age because of the light that we are able to walk in in this age.

***As God was unfolding his word to Adam, Adam was walking with God in the understanding of that word as God was revealing it to Adam, and as long as Adam continued to agree with the word as God was unfolding it to him, then he could never die.

**Adam wasn’t having big arguments with God every time God tried to reveal more truth to him (“No God I don’t agree with you, I been to seminary and that is not what I was taught”) – Adam was simply walking in the perfect understanding of the word of truth as God was unfolding it to him in the season that he was revealing it.

***A word revealed in the right season the bible says how good it is (Proverbs 15:23). That is why God will keep things back from your understanding until it is the right season in your life for you to see and understand things because often he will have to put you through experiences in life first to prepare you so that when the word comes to you, then you will be able to understand the word by the experience that he has put you through.

***Remember that it was when Eve disagreed with the word, that was when man and God ceased walking together and the SON light was separated from man, and darkness and death set into the human race.

**The tree of life that man had freely eaten from had been hidden away from him, and a seal that bared his way to that tree of life had been placed between him and that tree.

LUKE 17:24-30

     24   For as the lightning, that lighteneth out of the one part under heaven, shineth unto the other part under heaven; so shall also the Son of man be in his day (Jesus is speaking of his future coming of how that when he would come the second time that it would be as light shining across the world from one end to the other, and we know that light shining is when the word is revealed, – and so he is telling us here that his second coming will be in form of the revealing of the word that would shine over the entire world from east to the west, in other words a global message as it was in Noah’s day by a one man ministry.

As message believers, these things are very basic to us.

**This word “lightning” simply means light shining, and this does certainly refer to the sudden flash of the lightning of storm clouds on a dark night, but it can also refer to how the great sun light rises and shines from the east to the west of a brand new day - in other words his second coming would usher in a new day of the coming of the evening time light of a great revelation of the word of God, WHEN? – At evening time it shall be light, after the darkness of the night of the seven church ages would end, and this great light of the rising of the SON would be in the form of a global message that would sweep the world and call a bride out of every nation of the earth.)

     25   But first must he suffer many things, and be rejected of this generation.

He is still speaking here in the compound meaning of this future coming of how that at his second coming he would be rejected and would suffer – and we know that brother Branham preached that the word has been crucified again in this Generation by the rejection of the truth that God has sent in this day)

     26   And as it was in the days of Noe, so shall it be also in the days of the Son of man.

     27   They did eat, they drank, they married wives, they were given in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark, and the flood came, and destroyed them all.

     28   Likewise also as it was in the days of Lot; they did eat, they drank, they bought, they sold, they planted, they builded;

     29   But the same day that Lot went out of Sodom it rained fire and brimstone from heaven, and destroyed them all.

     30   Even thus shall it be in the day when the Son of man is revealed.

Revealed here means - disclose what before was unknown, and so that is the definition here of what happens when light shines, it reveals to our understanding of what was before unknown – so the revealing of the son of man would be the revealing of the word.

But before this Great light of the fullness of the word can shine, we know that a seal had to be broken – Remember that the opening of the seven seals revealed the evening time light – it gave us access back to the tree of life that Adam lost in Eden.

MATTHEW 28:1-3a

     1     ¶ In the end of the sabbath, as it began to dawn toward the first day of the week, came Mary Magdalene and the other Mary to see the sepulchre.

     2   And, behold, there was a great earthquake: for the angel of the Lord descended from heaven, and came and rolled back the stone from the door, and sat upon it.

     3a   His countenance was like lightning,

**Before Jesus could be resurrected from the tomb and shine the great light of that new day of the revealing of himself to his elect of that time, the seal that sealed the light of the word of that hour had to be broken first.

REVELATION 10:1-2

     1     ¶ And I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven, clothed with a cloud (have we seen that cloud in this day? – brother Branham said that this angel was Christ, he was the angel of the covenant, the same one that is described in 1st Thessalonians 4:16 – the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout, voice, and trump – this is the same event here in Revelation 10 – this was the coming of a Great Shining Light to the gentiles in Luke 2:32): and a rainbow was upon his head, and his face was as it were the sun (The same light that we saw shine in Genesis 1:3 by the spoken word of God), and his feet as pillars of fire (Pillars of fire speak of his judgement referring to his day of vengeance which is the time we are living in now – this is the time of both mercy and judgement - mercy to the ones who receive this great shining light, and judgement to the ones who refuse this great shining light):

     2   And he had in his hand a little book open: and he set his right foot upon the sea (Rome), and his left foot on the earth (America),

Remember, that this little book was the same book that was sealed in Revelation 5 with seven seals, and this book held the title deed to the ownership of the earth – whoever gets their hands on this little book will own the entire earth, this was the ownership papers to the redemption of the earth of what Adam’s race lost.

REVELATION 10:7

     7   But in the days of the voice of the seventh angel, when he shall begin to sound, the mystery of God should be finished, as he hath declared to his servants the prophets.

Brother Branham said that these two angels (Christ of Revelation 10:1 and the seventh angel of Revelation 10:7) were both on earth at the same time just as John the Baptist and Jesus were both on earth at the same time at Christ’s first coming - how could brother Branham introduce Christ to the people if they were not both together on earth at the same time.

THE.BREACH.BETWEEN.THE.SEVEN.CHURCH.AGES.AND.THE.SEVEN.SEALS_ JEFF.IN SUNDAY_ 63-0317E

74-2 {40}   And when the Seals are broke and the mystery is revealed, down comes 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.

Remember that the Message of this hour is the Shout of 1st Thessalonians 4:16

I THESSALONIANS 4:16

     16   For the Lord himself shall descend from heaven with a shout,

**Revelation 10 and 1st Thessalonians 4:16 is the same event.

THE.RAPTURE_ YUMA.AZ V-5 N-14 SATURDAY_ 65-1204

130     …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.

***If the shout is the message, and the message is the great shining light of the evening time age, then we know that the coming of this great Light is the coming of Christ in word form, it is the coming of Christ in the form of the light of the word that has been opened to us by the opening of the seven seals of this end time age.

Let’s review this a little –

Adam was the head of the human race, and he lost the dominion over the earth on behalf of the entire human race through the deception and unbelief of his wife.

**The earth was Adam’s inheritance from God his father, and just as a farmer’s son would lose the family farm through some bad deception of maybe a bad finance deal or something, Adam lost the right of ownership of the entire earth through the deception of Satan, and so now Adam’s legal power and dominion over the earth went from him with the title deed that was taken from him by his disinheritance. ***But thank God for the kinsman redeemer Jesus Christ the second Adam who came and purchased that deed back again by his own blood.

***What was man’s inheritance that he lost when he lost the title deed of the earth? Brother Branham tells us that he lost 3 things.

He lost Fellowship with God, Eternal life, and dominion over the earth which was the control over nature like the weather and the trees and the animal kingdom – Adam was the god over the earth with full power and control.

***So the title deed was lost and went back into the hand of God who was the original owner - But when Christ shall appear the second time (Hebrews 9:28) after his mediatorial work of seven Church ages has ended, then he comes down from heaven with the title deed of what he purchased for us at Calvary to give it back to us and into the possession of man again.

THE.BREACH.BETWEEN.THE.SEVEN.CHURCH.AGES.AND.THE.SEVEN.SEALS_ JEFF.IN SUNDAY_ 63-0317E – All these next quote will be from this same message in order of succession..

86-2 {116}   Now, oh, my. Now, the forfeited title deed is now in the hands of the original Owner, Almighty God. The title deed to the earth and to Eternal Life, when Adam forfeited it, then Satan's dirty hands could not take it; so it went back to its original Owner, God Himself. We're going to find it in just a minute; there He sets on the throne with it in His hand: the title deed.

 

86-5 {119}   Its redemption means all legal possession to all that was lost by Adam and Eve... Oh, my, what ought that to do to a borned again Christian. Its legal possession to the abstract deed, title deed of Eternal Life means that you possess everything that Adam and Eve lost. Whew. What of it, brethren? The possession of that deed...

 

103-4 {244}   Now, He has the Title Deed to redemption. He has it in His hand; mediation is done now. He has it in His hand. Remember, it's been in the hand of God all the time, but now it's in the hand of the Lamb.

Now, watch, the Title Deed of Redemption of all creation is in His hand, and He's come to claim it back to--for the human race,

 

105-1 {252}   Now, with the Lamb, with the Book in His hand, we are ready to ask His grace and mercy upon us to open these--seven-sealed Book to us and let us look a past the curtain of time just a little bit. Oh, my.

Notice, when He took the Book, the Title Deed, sealed (Just get that in your mind, now.) and broke the Seals of the mystery to reveal them, to bring them to His... See? All of His redeemed subjects...

 

108-2 {278}   Notice, here He comes, leaves the throne as an Intercessor, as a slain Lamb to become a lion, King, to bring the whole world into judgment that's rejected. Our Kinsman Redeemer then is King over all. Why? He's got the Title Deed of Redemption. It all lays within His hand. I'm glad I know Him...?...

Then claims His inheritance; that's the Church, the Bride; He claims it. What does He do then? He disposes of His contestant, Satan. He throws him into a lake of fire with all those who was inspired by Satan to reject His Word of redemption.

111-2 {299}   …But the first thing that represented that redemption, come the Lamb that had been slain from the foundation of the world. And He took the Book (Glory.) opened the Book, and tore off the Seals, and sent it down to the earth to His seventh angel to reveal it to His people.

This is The Great Shining Light.

***So the first thing that happens as this title deed is being restored is that he first restores our fellowship with God the same way of what Adam had fellowship with God – then out of that fellowship we are able to walk with God again like Adam did in Eden, and then eternal life comes back again so that we don’t even have to die in this age, and then out of that the dominion over the earth is restored again.

That is why we are now living in the bride age of the full SON light again as Adam did, we are not living in the candle light of the seven church ages anymore because at Evening time it shall be light.

IT.IS.THE.RISING.OF.THE.SUN_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-12 SUNDAY_ 65-0418M

96   Hallelujah! I'm sure you see what I'm talking about. It was waved over the people. And the first time there will come forth, for the Bride age, for a resurrection out of dark denominationalism, will be a Message, that the full maturity of the Word has turned back again in Its full Power, and being waved over the people, by the same signs and wonders that He did back there.

THE.INVISIBLE.UNION.OF.THE.BRIDE.OF.CHRIST_ SHP.LA V-2 N-15 THURSDAY_ 65-1125

324   The Word that fell on the Day of Pentecost will not work this day. No, sir. That was for Pentecost. This is for the Bride, going Home of the Bride. We got something different. The Pentecostals represented that, again. We're in the Bride age.

I.HAVE.HEARD.BUT.NOW.I.SEE_ SHREVEPORT.LA V-7 N-3 SATURDAY_ 65-1127E

187   Now it's begin to pull away, the wheat's begin to be seen. This is not a Pentecostal age (remember that the Pentecostal age was the 7th and last church age). This is the latter-day age. This is the Bride age. This is the evening Light. This is when Malachi 4 must be fulfilled, to follow God's pattern. This is Luke 17:30, to be fulfill. This is the second... And Jeremiah, and all the rest of them, that Joel has spoke of these days, this is that day.

MODERN.EVENTS.ARE.MADE.CLEAR.BY.PROPHECY_ SBD.CA V-7 N-6 MONDAY_ 65-1206

62     … We're living in the Bride age, the calling, bringing back to God through a channel that He promised to bring it back in.

LEADERSHIP_ COVINA.CA V-7 N-7 TUESDAY_ 65-1207

139 …So, in the last days. Now, you see, it's wheat time now. It's getting harvest time. This is not Luther's age, this is not Pentecost age, this is the Bride age.

***It is the bride age because a bride is a woman that is immediately about to be married to the groom – this is not the engaged to be married age, this is the bride and the bridegroom age of the marriage of the Lamb has come because the fellowship that was once broken between man and God in Eden has been restored back in this day, and man and God have become one again by a people on earth that has come into full agreement with the great shining light of the word of this age. Marriage is when two people agree together.

Remember that the voice is just the shout in another form – the shout is him, and the voice is him in her, this end time great shining light is now in the bride.

172-2   PERGAMEAN.CHURCH.AGE - CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.5

Notice the harmony of the Father and the Son. Jesus never did anything until it was first showed Him by the Father. John 5:19. This harmony is now to exist between the Groom and His bride. He shows her His Word of life. She receives it. She never doubts it. Therefore, nothing can harm her, not even death. For if the seed be planted, the water will raise it up again. Here is the secret of this. The Word is in the bride (as it was in Mary).

The shout (which is the light of the revealed word of this hour – His word of life) is now in the Bride as the voice, and now she has become the final voice to this final age – this is the marriage union between God and man restored again, and with marriage comes legal privileges.

***So this title deed book of redemption that was purchased back by our kinsman redeemer at Calvary, and then was giving to the earthly angel of Revelation 10:7 by the heavenly angel of Revelation 10:1, is now back on earth in people again.

***This is the purpose of what Christ died for at Calvary – we are now living in the time of his claiming work when he has come to restore everything back that was lost by Adam in Eden.
