WORLD’S MONEY CRISIS: PROPHECY PROGRESSES

 

 

 

II Peter 1: 19-20 <We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:

Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.>

 

I thought, by the scripture that I just read that I would strengthen your hearts a little bit by way of exhortation, and entitle this little message: “World’s Money Crisis: Prophecy Progresses.” So like I preached several months ago on, “World’s Money Crisis.” It is up on the net and it has been a great blessing to many around the world. Now, we take it for granted that many people are aware of those things and everybody knows what we were taught. But brethren, we had a great teacher here, the mighty man of God, Robert Lee Lambert. We had a great man, Brother Carlton McGahee. We had another great warrior of the faith, Brother George Parylla.

And I must confess that until Brother George hinted off one or two things on the economy and what Brother Branham said, I was lacking that knowledge. And when he hinted off, he said, “Brother Branham said concerning the economy, that this will bring the mark of the beast.” I started to look into that and capitalize upon that and preach that ever since. And it is true. It is right through the message. The prophet of God spoke of the mark of the beast and linked that with the world’s economy. Yes.

Now, but people around the world, they don’t have that knowledge around the message. No. And many of them are now waking up. So it has not gone in a book as yet because we are still making this book. And we continue tonight because things are happening so fast that this is prophecy in progress. And had I sent out the book, it would have been short of information. Pastor McGahee supplied me with some information today, and which he already passed on to you in a previous service, so I would not have to go through that. But I received many letters and many confessions from people around the world when we placed those messages on the net. Yes. And people were alarmed to find out how much Brother Branham said concerning the world’s economy in relation to prophecy. Yes. And I was surprised to know how much they don’t know concerning this, because I myself took it for granted that people are aware of what the prophet said but lo and behold they were sleeping. And people just woke up and started to write letters and wanted to find out more about this money crisis in relation to prophecy. And some of it was translated, at least in the German language and it went out, and it alarmed those people to understand the connections. And many people woke up in Africa. Many woke up in India and the Philippines, and they have fallen into desperation, seeing the hour in which we are living and how close we are. That before the world finds a solution to this money crisis and establishes that solution, the church must be gone. Yes.

 

 

Mark of beast - solution

 

So now, if you don’t know by now, the solution for this world’s money crisis is the mark of the beast. That is in simple terms. And you could see how it is connected there that no man might buy or sell. It has to do with commerce. So it is hooked up in commerce. (Revelation 13:13-16).

And God sent us a prophet and he told us what was about to happen on the earth, and we are seeing it before our eyes. He died and went on and never saw it, and that generation went on and never saw it, but here we are, friends, we are looking it right in its face. So we are that generation and we must be prepared. And I believe that the Lord had been preparing us for a long time. So the Lord must strengthen us. And you don’t know the fight you have in you until you face that crisis hour. The prophet of God said that the very faith that you have today to strive to live a Christian life is the same faith in that great crisis hour that’s going to anoint you to even die as a martyr. That was a great statement.

 

Quote W.M.B.: “Be thou faithful unto death." He does not say be faithful until death, but unto death. You may have to seal your testimony with your blood. Thousands, yea millions, have died during all the ages. They died in the faith. Like Antipas, the faithful martyr, they held not their lives dear unto death. Often we think that it would be almost impossible to be a martyr. But dare to recall that the faith we daily use to triumph in Christ Jesus is the same faith that upholds the Polycarps and all martyrs. The supreme faith will give supreme grace for the supreme hour. Blessed be God forever! (132-4 Smyrnaean Church Age  -  Church Age Book Cpt.4).

 

Don’t wonder about how you will stand, how you will face this, how you will face that. You don’t have to face anything. Christ is going to be in you and He will face the whole thing. He will face that, not you. Don’t get negative in your mind. And you must have the outpouring of the Holy Spirit and we are promised that outpouring of the Holy Spirit. Yes. The Lord said, “I will give you a mouth and wisdom that none of your adversaries shall be able to gainsay nor resist.” Yes. The power will be in you, and like Brother Paul said, “Christ liveth in me.” In one place he said, “I died but Christ liveth in me.” And if the early saints went through all what they went through, you are able to go through that because it is not you. It is the Lord in His people. The battle belongs to the Lord. Yes.

So prophecy is progressing and will continue to progress concerning this money crisis. Now we don’t want to see all of it. If you want to wait and see all of it, then you will miss the rapture. This thing goes right unto the brink of the rapture and into the tribulation, and what we call a modern Utopia for three and a half years. We don’t want to be there.

 

 

Chosen to stand

 

Anytime you enjoy that modern Utopia, you have missed the rapture; and we don’t want that. So it’s a great time that we are living in and God has chosen you to stand up in this crisis hour. Well, it may not look so. Why these few people and why these weaklings that the Lord chose to stand up against all these great things that are coming? Brother Branham went home, and Brother Bob went home and all the great men went home. He has chosen the foolish things of the earth to confound the prudent and the wise, and the base things of the earth to bring to nought the things which are. Yes. So the Lord always chooses something that looks weak and insignificant, so little. Like a little David.

Can you take that type for it? A little David. He took a little insignificant little fellow that his brothers even despised him; they never thought that he could have done that job to kill Goliath, no, but he did. I could see his brothers getting vex. They said, “We know your pride. Who did you leave those sheep with in the back part of the desert? You little scamp, get home! You little rascal, what are you doing here? You came to see the battle. Oh, David just shrugged it off. He did not come to see the battle; he came to do battle. Yes. My God, that was an anointing. Not the little fellow; it was the anointing that was upon David that did the job. And it’s not us, brethren, but the anointing that the Lord will anoint us with. And when he got that challenge, brother, I tell you, what words went out of his mouth. He said, “I will go and fight with him.” What anointed words for a little fellow to say something like that: “I will go and fight with him.” Yes. And King Saul tried to explain to him that he cannot do the job, yes; and then he gave him those testimonies, and he convinced that king that he could do the job. Because that anointing was upon King Saul before and he knew the power of that anointing, and then he said, “Go my son, and the Lord bless you.” To give the consent alone and put the whole army into the hands of that little boy, it had to be inspired of the Lord; otherwise they would not take that chance. That would have been a foolish thing. Yes. But the inspiration fell upon King Saul. I wonder what his brothers did when they saw that little fellow going to fight the great Goliath. Sometimes put yourself in that little picture and look at it from that perspective, how his brothers and they could not say any more because the king gave consent. Oh, he got his slingshot ready. I guess they were filled with plenty doubts and looked at their little brother there as a sacrifice. But they seen him moved down to the brook and took up five stones and got his slingshot ready and went out after that giant.

I believe the same thing will happen with a little people in the end time. Yes. We are getting our slingshot ready, and we already have the five stones. Yes. And the Lord will take care... So you are not alone. The Lord is anointing, He does the job. How will I preach tonight? Oh my, brothers and sisters, I don’t think of that. No. His anointing will take care of that. “How will I lead song service tonight?” The anointing will take care of that. “How will I blow that trumpet?” The Lord will take care of that. “Oh, Pastor McGahee, how will I preach again?” The Lord is taking care of the thing. He has an Aaron up here. Oh yes! Say exactly what Moses is saying. The job is being done in any case. Defy the enemy. The enemy says you cannot preach, you cannot do this. The Lord shows that you could still do it. Try to silence his voice but if a man whose voice is silenced could defeat the devil, what about me tonight and what about the young men that He is raising up? The Lord does those things. The Lord is good to us.

And there was a man who had an impediment in his speech and he complained to the Lord. Yes. He said, “Who made the mouth?” God asked him, “Who made the mouth? If you will make such complaint, I will give unto you Aaron. Aaron is going to be your prophet and you will be god. I sought of exalted you to the position of god. Yes! Say what you have to say through Aaron.” And the job was done. Wasn’t the job done? [Congregation says, “Amen!”] Well, the job could be done in this small congregation here in the very same way. So I am in full agreement. Yes. We thank God for His grace.

 

 

Two greatest men on earth

 

In fulfilment of prophecy, we have noticed in the last few days, about the same time that we arrived here, on the 10th of July, two of the greatest men in the world met together, and that is the pope and Mr. Obama. Did you ever consider them to be two of the greatest men upon earth? And that is because these men represent two of the greatest powers upon the earth. So prophecy is being fulfilled.

Now, but people around the world don’t realise what is happening. Beloved, everyday we are seeing why the Lord put up this last president. He said, “He setteth up kings and He takes them down.” Now, if the Lord set up this president here, it is for a good reason. And maybe this is the very thing that will bring down the mark of the beast and will unite the nations in a one world religion. And this man is moving very fast and he is beloved of the world, even because he represents almost all races of the world. He is accepted in Africa, accepted amongst the Arabians. He is accepted here in America.

And people may not like that but, then God knows how to bring prophecies to pass. And as long as the Lord is bringing prophecies to pass, we are satisfied with it. You could put up there Nebuchadnezzar or you could put up Pharaoh or you could put up Caesar, the fact is that prophecy is being fulfilled. That is what we are concerned about. We want this promise. Yes! We want the token. We want to see the power of God manifested. We want to see another revival and we firmly believe that that revival will break forth somewhere in New England. And it is going to be the seven thunders revival. That is the only revival promised to the end time Bride. It’s the seven thunders revival. And if a revival was promised to the Bride to break forth in New England, according to what the prophet of God said, it has to be the thunders revival. It has to be the seven thunders revival. And we are looking for it. Then, if the seven thunders will break forth a revival in New England, it was necessary that the Lord break the thunders somewhere here in New England. Nothing catches God unaware. I believe something was going on here in secret, yes, and in time it will break forth a revival and then prove where the seven thunders that was not opened by the prophet, that was not revealed by the prophet, it will show to the world and the message world where it is.

We are a fortunate people to be up here. You have a church. You have the truth. You have ministers. You have sat under the great men of God that contended for that faith. They would have liked to be here, but brothers and sisters, we are here and we must hold the fort. These young men; I don’t look at them just like youths. When I see them walk around the tabernacle here, when they come down to Trinidad, I look at them and think, “The preachers of tomorrow.” Yes. We old folks, we don’t know how far we will reach.

Now, I cannot say that I am old back home. I have a man, a preacher, ninety-three years of age sitting right there and he said, “I will see the token. I am not a downstairs man, I am an upstairs man.” So now, I have to be careful how I say I am getting old. So, I am not old at all.

Two of the greatest leaders met a few days ago in fulfilment of Bible prophecy and it will go further. People don’t realize that the greatest superpower on earth today is Rome. They don’t realize that. Now but that’s the greatest superpower that exists now upon the earth according to Bible prophecy. Yes. “The king that ruleth over the kings of the earth.” That’s what the Bible said. That man has more people following him than any other leader upon the face of the earth. Now, but that will manifest a little later. America is not the only superpower. Several years ago I preached and showed you that there are more superpowers than America. Yes. And that pope there is the leader of one of the greatest superpowers. And it is going to be proven in this financial crisis when he shows his power. Money is power. If you don’t have money, you can’t feed your soldiers. Your soldiers will starve. He has the money.

I believe that there were other links. I don’t believe this kind of publicity is all of it. I believe that there were talks going on before now. That man sounds so confident about the economy that I feel that he knows from where that is going to be backed up.

We are going to look just a little bit into one of the greatest statements that the pope ever made in this modern time, something that links to the prophecy of the mark of the beast, a one world government and a one world church. And probably many of you are aware of it but these things happened and people are not aware of it, way off in the other countries. We have all kinds of facilities here to get this news. Other people, they are still asleep and when they see that, then they are blessed.

 

 

Pope worship

 

Mr. Obama, President of America. There is a picture here and he is walking with the pope, and his wife Mrs. Obama is walking on the next side of the pope. He said, “It’s one of the greatest honours to ever meet with the pope.” Now I will tell you one sure thing, friend, before he spoke to that pope, the president of America had to kiss his big toe. So the great mouth that he was given to speak to the nations, that mouth had to go down to Rome and kiss the pope’s big toe. And after he kissed his big toe, then he had to back off, never turn his back to the pope, back off to a certain distance and then walk away from the pope. That’s the law.

The prophet of God was about to have an interview with the pope, and he went to Rome and they told him the conditions. They got to cut off the links in his jacket, some different things. He said, “Yes, I will cooperate with that.” And they said: “You have to do, never turn your back from him.” He said, “That’s all right.” The man who was interviewing him, he said, “One thing you must do, you must bow down to the pope and kiss his toe.” He said, “That is out. I bow to no man, and we worship no man but God.” I often time wonder what would have happened if those two great spirits met together. That pope might have died. Yes. Brother Branham said, “That is out. I won’t do it.” Turned away and he did not have the appointment.

Prophecy is being fulfilled. You must look at this picture here. Obama is walking as such a friend to the pope, as a little boy and his wife is behind. And the both of them are dressed in black and the pope’s dressed in white and red. I guess that is also a requirement. Both of them are in black. And he is already familiar with the pope, already kissed his big toe otherwise he could not walk with him.

So another great man passed by and he said, “If I go up to the pope and they ask me to kiss his toe, I will bite it.” He was a little more aggressive. He said, “I will bite it. That was your pastor, Robert Lambert. And believe me, he would have done it. He was a fellow like that. He was so emotional; he would have bit that pope’s toe. Yes. Man, he had a powerful voice. When he bawled at you, you shivered. Yes, I heard him. I tell you, it was strong.

The news is saying here, this is coming from Rome.

 

Quote: President Barack Obama said Friday, “The world apparently has averted an economic collapse but a full recovery is still a long ways off.”

 

Unquote. Don’t let anybody tell you that this economy is recovering. The president of America said it is way off. Yes. And I believe him. Don’t you know that Barack is a Muslim name and Obama is a Muslim name? Yes. Barack Obama. And many months ago when he was just sworn in, Bin Laden said that this man betrayed the Muslim community and he is out to get him.

 

Quote: “Obama speaking at the end of the group of 8th Summit of major economic powers shortly before meeting with Pope Benedict the 16th said, ‘World leaders have taken significant measures to address economic environmental and global security issues. Wreckless actions by a few have fuelled a recession that spans the globe,’ Obama said of the meltdown in the United States, with a tumble in housing prices and drastic business lending. The downturn now threatens the superpower and emerging nations alike. Obama urged international leaders to unite behind the global recovery plan that includes stricter financial regulation and sustain stimulus spending.”

 

Unquote. They are not telling you about what plan it is. No. He said, “But there is a plan.” And I believe that this man knows exactly what the plan is to solve this problem here, this money crisis. Now on and on it goes. And then, he chose after that to go to one state in Africa called Ghana. Over there the brothers will be looking at him through the eyes of E.O.D.H. and money crisis. Yes. We have a good following  there and they are well balanced on the Word, and they just woke up concerning this money crisis. Wonderful, wonderful brothers. Now, I will cut it a little short here.

 

Quote: “‘The only way forward is through shared and persistent efforts to combat threats to our peace, our prosperity and our common humanity wherever they may exist, but none of this will be easy,’ Obama told the news conference at the end of the group of the 8th summit of major economic powers.”

 

Unquote. I think this summit was in Italy. And he slipped over to see the pope at the same time. So he is reporting on a lot of things that was said concerning the economy. They are not bringing out what is the plan that they have in place. So the rest of this you could get it on the net. But my interest right here is to show you Bible prophecy being fulfilled. Now, this is a religious group that just sent this, but this clipping here deals with the report of what the pope is saying just before the G8 and we are going to get a little understanding.

The USA Today headlines said, “Pope calls for God centred global economy.” Unquote. Now this is a very serious thing. This brothers and sisters, explains to us in no uncertain terms what was prophesied by Brother Branham, and what he preached throughout his life, and what Brother Bob preached throughout his life and what we have been preaching for many years. All right! Now the serpent has a way of speaking things to the world. “Pope calls for God-centred global economy.” Do you know that Rome is considered as the head of Christianity and the pope is considered as the leader of Christianity? So now what is this he is speaking about? If the pope calls for a God centred global economy, that goes to show that the world’s trade centre is going to be in Rome. He is calling for that. They only thing that he is not saying is to put me up as the leader. That is the only thing that he is not saying in words. Quote again:

 

“POPE CALLS FOR GOD-CENTRED GLOBAL ECONOMY.”

 

            Here is the opening paragraph:

 

            “Pope Benedict the 16th today called for reforming the United Nations and establishing a true world political authority, with real teeth, to manage the global economy with God centred ethics.”

 

            Talking about how that serpent could talk, he deceived Eve in a moment, that’s the tongue of the serpent.

            Brethren, a lot was said in just those few words. That covers all the preaching of Brother Branham, all the preaching for all the years; this man is bringing it out in just a few words. He is giving you a solution here for the world’s money crisis, he is saying to get a God centred politician and put him there as the head. He says, and this politician must have teeth. That is what Rome is. Rome is the fiercest kingdom that ever arose in human history, anything that came against them they destroyed it, and the Pope had been destroying for hundreds of years.

 

 

End financial crisis

 

Quote: “The Pope says, such an authority is urgently needed to end the current worldwide financial crisis. It should revive damaged economies, reach towards disarmament, food, security and peace, protect the environment, and regulate migration. The goal of this true world authority is a just and equal sharing of world resources to eliminate poverty and other social problems. The document which you can read at the official Vatican website, draws from past Papal statements but seems to put a stake in the ground with the clear call for some type of central authority to end the cycle of financial stress that historically leads to problems like war and upheaval of whole populations: massive wealth redistribution is also called for.”

 

Now, my brothers and sisters, in those few words the Pope expressed Bible prophecy of a one world government and a one world church, and a political and religious leader at the head. That is why he is talking about a God centred politician. And, who is that God centred politician? The Pope is a God centred politician as far as he is concerned, he is both state and church in Rome. In other words, we will break it down, the Pope is saying, “Put me up at the head as the world leader of both religion and politics, and all the problems that you are having of disarmament, of food problems, he named them out there, and this problem and the next problem, will be solved.” The man knows what he’s talking about and friends I believe what the man is saying because it is Bible prophecy being fulfilled right before our eyes. Obama is speaking the truth, and the Pope is speaking the truth here, and we support them one hundred percent because it will fulfil Bible prophecy. Now the world probably is looking at that as some kind of a little statement, and some kind of a nonsensical suggestions, but he is speaking right according to Bible prophecy.

Now, this is stronger here than what we read before when we was preaching financial crisis. He was talking about globalization, now he comes a little further to tell them what to do. Alright, what was that conference that he had with Obama, after he kissed his big toe, what kind of talks they had behind closed doors? It is not coming out on this here, no, but we according to prophecy already know the conversation of the Pope and Mr. Obama. How come the biggest problem could be the money problem in the world and both of these leaders which are the greatest leaders upon earth, not talk about it? What are they going to talk about, fishing? Do you think they went in there talking about the catechism? No brothers and sisters, they will be talking about the biggest problem that the world now faces, it is common sense. When he goes in there, he has a reason for going in there, he has a reason for kissing that man big toe, president of America going to kiss a man big toe! Brother, he knows where the deliverance is coming from. He isn’t going to do that, just to say worship a man and just go across there and say, “Well we are friends.” No, he had a big reason, he knows exactly where that bailout is coming from.

 

 

u.s.a. debts to nations: 100 trillion

 

            I never knew that. America is claiming that she has eleven trillion dollars in debts and it turn out from confidential sources that it is really a hundred trillion. And the big thing with this is that they borrowed money from all parts of the world, from poverty stricken countries, yes, they borrowed from the Muslims, they borrowed from Russia, borrowed from Canada, from China, from Brazil, I mean to say, this is ridiculous. And all those nations they borrowed from, and what is happening is that they cannot pay this debt. And the nations realize that and they don’t want to lend them anymore money, so you could see what is happening, if they are in such a great big debt that they cannot pay off. Brother Branham said back there, “Forty years from now the tax payers’ money will be paying that debt and they cannot do it.” He said, “They cannot pay that debt.” Now the prophet’s words are coming to pass here now. Now, if you cannot pay that debt, you will have to look to some other source. Alright, and then if the nations know that you cannot pay your debt, they are not foolish enough to keep pumping money and lending you money. No, the stage is being set for the mark of the beast, is the answer to this whole thing.

 

Quote W.M.B.: 177 I ain't got nothing against that man as a president, but it's that Jezebel system that's behind it. Can't you see these popes and things coming in now; one's raising that don't know Joseph. And the first thing you know, we are right now asking the Protestant church to consolidate with it, and every organization will go right into the federation of churches, and there you're trapped.

We are living off of tax money that'll be paid in forty years from today. The nation's broke. Where's it at? Who's got the money? We haven't got it. Our bonds are no good. We've got to have gold. Who's got it? The Catholic church. What will they do? Before these whiskey men and all these great holders and stockholders will ever give it up, they'll absolutely sell out, and the church will loan the nation the money. And what it will do, it'll sell its birthrights right straight into Catholicism. Then what are you going to do? Amen. That's the gold of the world, them and the Jews, and that's the covenant that he makes with Israel. (Lord Just Once More 63-0628A).

 

            Quote: 57-1 Did you hear "Life Line" the other morning. Why, you know, it's just like you sell bonds on the gold. The bonds is already took up, and this present government now is spending money for what? For tax money that they'll be collecting forty years from now. She's done. That's "Life Line" right out of Washington D.C., across the nation. Taxes, they're spending and trying to buy foreign... Why, they're just giving it out any way. Don't you see, that's exactly what they're--what they're going to do? See, what is it? Now, if this nation goes busted, the only thing it can do is go busted. The only thing that it can do is go bankrupt. That's the only sensible thing to do: change the currency. But they won't do it. Under this present ministration, Roman Catholic church owns the gold of the world, and what they'll do is sell out. These rich men and so forth of the earth, as the Bible said, what will they do before they lose the Brown and Williamson tobacco company (Most all of them's Catholic anyhow.), and all these other things, what will they do? They'll accept that and they'll take the money from Rome, and then she's sold her very birthright. Rome backs her up. Yes, sir. (Stature Of A Perfect Man 62-1014m).

 

Let me read this here, and this is not a little common man that is talking friends, this is not an opinion of the newspaper. Hear who is saying what is being said:

 

Quote: “According to Richard W. Fisher, the president and CEO of the Federal Reserve Bank of Dallas, the unfunded liabilities of the US social security and Medicare system stand at 99.2 trillion today.” That figure is not a misprint. “If the US government plans to keep operating the social security system and the Medicare system, then the official federal debt really is 11.3 trillion plus 99.2 trillion, or 110.5 trillion. Why does our government state that its federal deficit is only slightly north of 11 trillion? With the term only, a relative term given that the true US deficit is about ten times greater than the official government figure. Over the years the US government has stated several reasons why they don’t include unfunded obligations in their official debt figures, with one of the most common reasons being, that these programs are optional and can be cut at any time.”

 

Unquote. There we are, we don’t need any explanation for that. The real debt, one place it saying a hundred trillion, one place it is saying a hundred and ten point five. And this man is trying to convince America that the government will never be able to pay off their debts. Now, don’t you see that prophecy is fulfilled? And in one of these statements here they say, “America is presently bankrupt.” So now, if they are bankrupt, how are they functioning? They are functioning through the psychology of the money, people still have confidence in the money. But one of these days as things progress, they will realize that they got to do something, and it’s going to bring it down. Yes. So you were taught all of these things here and this is only a little update concerning Bible prophecy.

 

 

Prophecy progresses for the church

 

          Now, in a few closing remarks, I believe that while prophecy is in progress concerning the world’s economy and a one world government and a one world church, prophecy is also in progress concerning the church of God, because our promise is dependant upon those prophecies being fulfilled. The Lord must send this Outpouring of the Holy Spirit to combat that great force that is now forming and now coming into power. So now, while those prophecies are being fulfilled, my beloved, don’t go to sleep, and as I said before, don’t drag along with the economy. No, it’s about time that the church get up and get. So don’t just take it for granted, you got to understand, as long as those prophecies are in progress, then the church of God ought to progress in way of prophecy concerning the Outpouring and the Rapture. Alright now, God has not gone to sleep, we must progress. And this prophecy that is in progress concerning the church is side by side with the money crisis.

Now, E.O.D.H. around the world is also progressing. You have seen and you have understood what is happening in this last period of time in India and in Africa, I don’t have to go into that. But the truth is marching on. Letters after letters, people’s eyes are being opened. We are sending it out by DVDs, by streaming, and people are being delivered around the world. Now that did not happen by chance. No.

 

 

Plagues – amateur form

 

At the same time that these prophecies are being fulfilled, look out there and you will see that the plagues are falling in amateur form. They declared the Swine Flu as a pandemic. Now some of the younger generation, they take it for granted because they never looked at the history to find out how bad these things could be. There was a pandemic one time concerning a flu, where it started I’m not sure, but it killed fifty million people; just a flu that passed by. Now these things are not happening by chance. And when we hear about a pandemic and we hear about a flu in different countries, and it is here in America, and it is over in Trinidad, and over seventy four nations, (now it must be a hundred), and we have this flu going on, we should not take it for granted. Now, brothers and sisters, if you don’t know, I want you to understand that these are the plagues of the Lord falling in amateur form. And the reason you find that these plagues rise up like the Ebola Flu and other things, and just died down; and they don’t know what happened and what subdued that, because they never found a vaccine, they never fought it in that respect, to do away with it; I want you to understand that these plagues that are falling is only in an amateur form as a warning to the nations of what is coming later on in the tribulation.

You know very well that your pastor Brother Lambert established here that the plagues to come in the tribulation, that the viruses and the germs are right now here upon the earth. Now, when you see these things rising and it just gets everybody excited, all the scientists, all the medical people, they are excited, they are scared to death that this thing will get away and kill another fifty million people, brethren, it’s the judgment of the Lord in amateur form. And those are the viruses coming together. And what is happening is these viruses are just crossbreeding and getting stronger and stronger and stronger. Now that is going to crossbreed into a certain place until the Lord is ready to pour down the plagues on the earth. The Bible said that these two witnesses had power to call for plagues as often as they will. So now, these same things that you are hearing about, Swine Flu and Ebola Virus and many other things, it is going to rise up in the tribulation. Moses and Elias will call for those demons to be loosed in the tribulation when the blood leaves the mercy seat. So now, don’t just take it for granted. How much the Lord is going to allow this flu to destroy? I don’t know, I can’t predict, I cannot say. This flu could stay just like that and die down as other flu, but now this here is the plagues in amateur form right now upon the face of the earth. Now, if this is in amateur form, where are we living? Because it got to come out in full force in the Tribulation, and the Lord is getting all these things prepared, all these things ready here upon the face of the earth.

My beloved, while this is going on, the currents of Sodom and Gomorrah is getting stronger and stronger. Satan is like a roaring lion seeking whom he may devour. The greatest curse to this earth that ever took place in recent times is the electronics. Just that cell phone alone is a damnable thing to young people and families. Millions of men lose their wives because of that stinking cell phone. Yes, a lot of things are happening. That cell phone has destroyed a lot of Christians and has destroyed a lot of people right in our fellowships. The television brothers and sisters, is small to what the young people today and even the older people must face on the internet. You are talking about wickedness! You are talking about pornography! You are talking about the currents being so strong that people cannot resist! It takes the born again experience, “Except the Lord of Sabbath had left us a seed, we had been as Sodom, and been made like unto Gomorrah.”(Romans 9:29) You got to get this seed that came out of the Seals. There was a seed, an incorruptible seed, a seed of life, a seed of the Word, a seed of the born again experience. And the reason that people are having these problems and they cannot resist the things that are on the internet, and on the papers, and on the television, and everything that goes with it, is because they are lacking that seed. The only thing to help you as the people of God is to have that seed planted in you now.

So now, that’s the big problem. The problem is not this, that or the next. When you get worldly, when you start drifting to Sodom and Gomorrah, when you start drifting to the internet, and you could have the stomach to see sex acts right there in your homes, and you want to look at a naked female, and you want to look at homosexual activities, friends, your nature is not changed yet. No, your nature is not changed. When you want to pull your dress up above your knees and you want to get a Sodom and Gomorrah spirit upon you and you want to argue with your parents when they try to restrain you, you are anointed by the devil! Anointed by the devil; this is what I am talking about. The currents of Sodom and Gomorrah are very strong and it takes that seed of life to fight that current. The worst thing for a drowning man is to try to fight that current. You cannot fight that current, it takes God to deliver you. When a certain current in that water holds you, it’s a terrible thing.

We were fishing at the west coast of Trinidad and we saw a boat, and the men in that boat there looked so sad, about twelve fellows, and they asked, “Did you see a young man out here floating?” Boy, that was so sad to see the father and brother. We said, “No.” So we went out a little way off and we were fishing and suddenly the little boy appeared. He was about fifteen or sixteen years, and that fellow seemed to be alive, and she had his head down a little bit into the water, the water was calm, and his two hands was just going like that, in swimming motions. At one moment I thought, “The boy is alive.” He had his face down and he was gradually moving with the water like that, but the little boy was dead.

 

 

Currents of Sodom and gomorrah

 

And what happened to him was that he was bathing down at Brother Glen’s in the Cedros area, at Columbus Bay, Trinidad, and there is a current in that water near those three big rocks. There is a channel that passes just in front of those rocks off the beach area, and there is always a current passing through there and it will pull you and suck you in if you don’t know. Sometime ago we were fishing and we seen a man there, he was just going towards that channel not knowing, and we stopped the boat and told him, “Get out of there, go back, go back.” But this youth did not know that, he probably was trying to reach those rocks, and he swam out there and that current took a hold of that fellow and it took him away. It was about twelve hours after and they were searching for that boy so sadly. And that young fellow was just, I tell you, he looked so pitiful, my mind reflected upon Bobby Bruce. He resembled him. And I tell you, my heart wrenched. I wondered about his soul. I said, “Lord, this current took away this fellow, did he repent? Did he have a chance? Where is the little fellow’s soul today?” Brethren, don’t let the currents of Sodom and Gomorrah suck you through that channel, and your soul is not saved, it’s a terrible thing.

So we hailed the boat that was searching and gave them a signal that we had seen the boy. And I tell you, people could be so superstitious, they came over there and one had a lasso, (a rope with a long hangman’s noose). He came there with a lasso and threw it over the boy’s neck and just dragged him behind the boat. I had to shout at them, I said, “Don’t do that! You will cut that boy’s neck!” So then they listened to me, I said, “Couple the fellow under his arms.” Do you know what was all behind it? The boatman said, “Not that dead man in my boat.” He was afraid that some ghost will get him or something. If I had known that in time, I probably would have told Brother Glen, “Let’s take up the boy and carry him.” And they coupled that young fellow, about fifteen or sixteen years of age, under his arm and the tides pulling, and they were going with him to the beach. While the parents waited there, loved ones on that beach crying. Brothers and sisters, some people in the world have to go through some terrible things without Christ. Such a sad scene!

But there is a sadder scene, brothers and sisters. When you serve Christ, you were born in church, living for the Lord, and you allow the currents of Sodom and Gomorrah to arrest you and you reach out unto a certain place that you cannot come back, your soul will be lost. You cannot play around the currents of this world, and all these things there, television, and all these electronic things that they are having. All these nakedness are the heavy currents and a channel that leads you into Sodom and Gomorrah. And when it comes there it is not only going to destroy your body, it would destroy your soul. You would spend thousands and yea millions of years in the lake of fire, because you loved the miniskirt, you want to bring down your top here, a little bit like the world, you don’t want to show your whole breast but you want to show a little piece, you are a nasty young woman! What would you want to have your bodice so tight that the buttons want to rip apart, why would you want to do that? There is a spirit upon you and that’s a spirit of Sodom and Gomorrah. You think you want to look pretty, you want to look nice, you got to look into God’s mirror and see how nice you are looking. You got to think of your souls above every other thing in this world.

 

 

Drifting too far from the shore

 

Don’t let that current pull you out there friend, you are drifting too far from the shore, don’t drift too far from the shore. My God! And it’s a lovely beach, pretty sand, thousands of people bathe there throughout the years. Sometimes there is hardly anybody and the beach is nice, and it is so shallow, and then you step out there and as you reach to a certain distance, there is actually a river that goes through there, a channel, and the current is so strong and the waters could be looking so calm on top, and you get in there and that current grab you, you lose control. Hundreds of people have drowned there and died. The pleasures of the world look nice and appealing. But the tides and currents of Sodom and Gomorrah leads to hell, leads to the Tribulation. And if you are deceived by that and you are going too far away from the shore, in your dressing, in your mannerism, in your vision of eternal life, you better turn back now. You better repent, you better turn back, better get down on your knees and beg God. Say, “Lord this current is too strong for me, I cannot manage this current, it takes you to save me.” Come back to the shore, come back to safety and that is in Christ.

May the Lord bless your hearts. It was so lovely speaking to you my brothers and sisters. Let us encourage one another, let us strengthen one another, let us forgive one another. When I come down here, I just don’t come down with a rod to see who done what in order to just chastise them, I am here to encourage you, I understand the currents that are pulling there in the world brethren. I was telling Brother Kenny, I said, “We never had those kinds of temptations, friend.” In those days we never had those kinds of temptations as what the youths are now facing and old men too. Old men’s eyes are in that nasty thing, looking at naked pictures, drifting away from the Word into the world. The current is strong, we understand that, the current is strong, but brother, keep on the shore, don’t venture to close to that channel, don’t venture to close out there. Brothers and sisters, keep on safe grounds. What is safe ground? Be in the Word, be in prayer, get into the Word, get into the Spirit of the Word and it will keep you. People wants to see how close they could reach to sin and not sin. The Bible says, “Flee the very presence of evil.” Yes. Give us a song there Micah Bruce.
