65-1125  THE INVISIBLE UNION OF THE BRIDE OF CHRIST_  SHREVEPORT.LA

221 The same Word sucked up through these and come out here, and come to a head here. And all that Life that come through here, picked up its people. Now it's forming up into a head, for the Rapture. Speaking on that tomorrow night, or next night, one, the Lord willing.

222    Well, you separated from your first union, by spiritual death. Now you are born again, or remarried again, to the new spiritual union; of not your natural life of the things of the world, but of Eternal Life. That germ that was in you at the beginning, found you.

65-0119  THE.GOD.WHO.IS.RICH.IN.MERCY

33    And now then, we find out that we have come to another Ephesians, another Ephesus now. Where, that, in our intellectual denominations and so forth, and all of our educational programs has come to its--its Jordan, then we must have an--an Ephesians again. We must have an exodus, to "come out" and to "go into," for the Rapture.

64-0802  THE FUTURE HOME OF THE HEAVENLY BRIDEGROOM AND THE EARTHLY BRIDE  JEFF.IN

121  Yet, Noah was a type of the remnant that's carried over, not the translated bunch. Enoch, one man, went in the Rapture before the flood came, showing that the Church does not go into the tribulation or anything around it. Enoch was translated, one man. Oh, the church may be a number; but the Bride is going to be a very small group that'll make up the Bride. Now, the church may be a great number; but, the Bride, you see, compare eight with one. Eight times less, will be the Bride, than the church.

64-0719M  THE.FEAST.OF.THE.TRUMPETS_  JEFFERSONVILLE.IN

169    The Rapture will be the same way. In--in a hour... He promised to do that. He didn't promise to show Elias like that, but He promised to take the Bride like that. "In a hour that you think not," just a change, in a moment of a twinkling of an eye, be caught away. Then you're left, then that's the time!

63-0324M  QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS ON THE SEALS_  JEFF.IN

182 But this is distinctly calling one person, the Lord Jesus Christ (See?), the anointed One. There's only one of them.

Now that's right. So if there's any farther on that, write a letter or something, or--or sometime when I'm on other questions... I want to try to get this so I can see if we can get to some of these sick people that's suffering, prayed for.

12. Brother Branham, if this question is not--is not fit--does not fit in the... do not answer. (That's nice. I appreciate it.) What children--what children go in the rapture, if any small ones? Thank you.

They never signed no name. Now, if you don't, it's not necessary.

But look, when God puts a name on the Lamb's Book of Life before the foundation of the world, there's not nothing in the world can rub it out, because it's wrote with the ink of the Blood of Christ. Be it this big, that big, or that big, or whatever it might be, it goes just the same. See?

184  All children, all the church, everything there is and... God, by His foreknowledge...

232 When God give Christ His Bride (the Spirit gave the flesh, the Bride) He was plush--pierced in the side under His heart, and water, Blood, and Spirit came forth; that become flesh of His flesh and bone of His bone. We are the flesh and bones; the Bride will be the flesh and bones of Christ, exactly. They are the... That is His Bride.

22. Would the Bride of Christ have... Would the Bride of Christ have a ministry before the rapture?

Sure. That's what's going on right now. See? The Bride of Christ... Certainly. It is the Message of the hour (See?), the Bride of Christ. Sure, She's consist of apostles, prophets, teachers, evangelists, and pastors. Is that right? That's the Bride of Christ. Sure, She's got a ministry, great ministry; it's the ministry of the hour; it'll be so humble...

62-1014M THE STATURE OF A PERFECT MAN_ JEFFERSONVILLE.IN

186 Knowledge; not worldly (it reasons). Any kind of worldly knowledge reasons. See? But faith has no reasoning. God reveals to you a certain-certain thing is going to happen, every scientist in the world could tell you, "It's contrary. It could not happen." You believe it, anyhow. See? Yes, sir. It doesn't reason. The Bible said, "We cast down reasons." You don't reason with faith. Faith has no reasoning. Faith knows where it's at. Faith acts. Faith holds on. It can't move. Nothing can move it. I don't care whatever says this, that, other. It doesn't move, a bit. It stays right there, wait, wait, wait, wait. Don't make any difference. It stays right there.

62-0311 THE GREATEST BATTLE EVER FOUGHT_ JEFFERSONVILLE.IN

153 That's what He give Eve to arm herself with. And she broke her armor down. How'd she do it? By opening up her mind to reason. You don't reason with God's Word. It has no reason. You... It's just God's Word. There's no--there's no doubt about It. There's no reasoning to It. It's God's Word. That settles it. That's got it. That settles it forever.

63-0320  THE.THIRD.SEAL_  JEFFERSONVILLE.IN

129 Spiritual Eve, now that's the Church, Christ's Bride, she fell not in Eden but in Rome. See? At the Nicene Council when she rejected that Pentecostal church that went down to Nicaea and listening to Roman's reasoning instead of holding on to the Word, she fell and everything away from her, died with her, around her.

131  Now, just as natural Eve fell, spiritual Eve fell. God's bride fail--fell in the garden; Christ's bride fell in Rome (See? Notice.) by the same reasoning against God's Word. She also forfeited her rights of virtue to Satan, which we found in the breaking of these Seals that that was Satan and still is Satan there. The Bible said it's the very seat of Satan.

And as Eve forfeited her--her virtuous rights and give them over to Satan in the garden of Eden, the church, the bride of Christ did the same thing at Rome when they forfeited the Bible for their dogmas and reasoning. See how it types?

62-0531  THE.CONFLICT.BETWEEN.GOD.AND.SATAN_  CLARKSVILLE.IN

65    So Satan tried to--to attack the Word, in the garden of Eden. So he had to have something now that he could use, to--to the human being, would look better than that Word. See? He had to have something that would look better, to the human being, than Word. And do you know what he used? Reasoning, just what we'd say, "common sense." See? So that's what he used, and he succeeded, so that's what he's used, all along.

65-0120  LEAN.NOT.UNTO.THY.OWN.UNDERSTANDING_  PHOENIX.AZ

141    But he believed instead of unbelieving; and called the things, which were not, as though they were, which was absolutely against any reasoning. But he didn't reason. He just believed it. There was no reasons could prove that that baby could be born. That woman was about twenty years past menopause, and his body was as good as dead. And when he was a hundred years old, twenty-five years later, he still was giving God praise, against any kind of an understanding. But by faith, he knowed that God would keep His Word. He leaned not to his own understanding.

64-0719E  GOING.BEYOND.THE.CAMP_  JEFFERSONVILLE.IN

66  Now, in this camp, miracles, signs, and wonders was in this camp.

They moved them out into the wilderness. They left their natural camp. They left the mud camp. They left the camp made with straw and brick, to dwell in tents out in the wilderness, where there was no grain or nothing else. Sometimes God asks us to do foolish things, to our own thinking. And if you ever leave the camp of your own reason, that's the place you'll find God.

65-0801E  EVENTS.MADE.CLEAR.BY.PROPHECY_  JEFFERSONVILLE.IN 

113    Then He turns and said, "You fools, slow of heart to believe that all that the prophets said about Him wouldn't come to pass?" See? Watch Him now go back to prophecy. What a rebuke for believers, claimed they believed Him!

64-0312  WHEN.THEIR.EYES.WERE.OPENED.THEY.KNEW.HIM_  BEAUMONT.TX

60  Notice then when it come to the place, after Him revealing the Word, over again, to them, and show them how Christ must do these things, and still they didn't get it. Notice the rebuke they got, them preachers, for not knowing and recognizing the fulfilled Scripture that was fulfilled before their eyes. Notice His words to them, "Fools, slow of understanding." Here was God Himself, the resurrected Messiah, walking along with them, showing them. Said, "Why, don't you understand that Christ must do these things? Don't you know that it must be this a way, and this a way, and thus and thus?"

63-0714M  WHY.CRY.SPEAK_  JEFFERSONVILLE.IN

118    What a--what a rebuke to those Pharisees, that called Jesus, when He could perceive their thoughts, He called them, "Beelzebub."

119    And that little prostitute said, "Why, this Fellow is the Messiah. The Scripture says He'll do this." See, that predestinated seed was laying there. And when the Light struck it, it come to Life. You can't keep it down. You can't hide Life.

63-0317M  GOD HIDING HIMSELF IN SIMPLICITY THEN REVEALING HIMSELF IN THE SAME_  JEFFERSONVILLE.IN

333 What a rebuke to this generation, when they stumble over it and fuss about it, and "You didn't do this and do that," and God sent a simple animal in. See? What a rebuke. What was it? God in simplicity (See?), showing Himself to be great. Oh, my. Rebuke these men of this generation of their unbelief.
