It is important to know these biblical truths that are contained here in the book of Revelation; and also in the book of the prophet Daniel and in other books that contain prophecies, like the Psalms as well; and other books of prophets, like the book of Zechariah, which shows us how the prophets received the revelation of God: it was God through His Spirit, the Holy Spirit, revealing to the prophets and through the prophets, the things corresponding to each time.
Everything that God spoke, is speaking or will speak in the future, will be through the Holy Spirit; because the Holy Spirit is Christ in Holy Spirit, Christ in theophany, Christ in His angelical body.
PREPARE FOR THE ENCOUNTER WITH OUR GOD
(Ministers Meeting)
Dr. William Soto Santiago
Saturday, November 14, 2015
Bogota, Colombia
The forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, his Message, is a Message of preparation for the encounter with our God; therefore, every minister should have it written and recorded for his congregation. Because there is how to prepare us for the encounter with our God; so that we don’t miss, as Israel missed the encounter with our God two thousand years ago, God coming with His Angel dressed in a human body called Jesus; there was the encounter of God with His people, which they didn’t understand.
Tomorrow Sunday we will talk a little bit more; we can’t talk some things; Reverend William Branham said in the message “Christ is the mystery of God revealed,” page 14: “We don’t know how He will come or when He will come. And it is good that we don’t know.” Now, why? So that there are no imitations. He knew, because he is the forerunner; and it is in the messages that forerun the Second Coming of Christ. He said on page 119 of the book of Quotations [paragraph 1058],1 “I shall not die of old age, until He is here; unless I die of an accident or in some other way.”
So that means that he was expecting for his time, if he remained alive, the Coming of the Lord. And he knew what it was; don’t think he didn’t know. The Third Pull contains all that. And he said… the Angel told him: “Of this you shall not tell anyone.”
He spoke the other stages, and they were imitated. The Third Pull can’t be imitated, because they don’t know what it is. And until we are in the Third Pull, in the fulfillment of the Tent Vision, the mystery of the Second Coming of Christ to His Church will not be revealed.
Remember that in the Tent Vision Reverend William Branham was taken, and the Angel that spoke to him was with him, and then he says that he saw the Pillar of Fire that came down to the place of the little room; the Pillar of Fire, Jesus Christ, the Angel of the Covenant.
In other words, they go down to that stage, and He will be the one that will carry out all those wonders. It will be Christ coming to His Church in a Cloud, the Pillar of Fire; God visiting His Church in the Pillar of Fire, to give them the faith to be transformed and be taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
Remember: The Thunders will reveal to the Church the mystery of His Coming, the mystery of the Seventh Seal, and will give her a revival, an awakening. And the Seven Thunders are the Voice of Christ, the Mighty Angel that descends from Heaven with the little Book open in His hand, crying as when a lion roars and seven thunders speaking their voices. Christ speaking with the Voice of Lion, crying, roaring as when a lion roars, and Seven Thunders speaking Their voices.
Reverend William Branham says that the Seven Thunders contain the mystery of the Seventh Seal; therefore, with the revelation of the mystery of the Seventh Seal that the Seven Voices of the Mighty Angel will give us, of Christ in the Last Day: will give us the faith to be transformed; He will reveal to us the mystery of His Second Coming, the mystery of His visit for His encounter with His Church in the Last Day.
We need to know those mysteries, which are going to be revealed in the Third Pull (called by Reverend William Branham) in the fulfillment of the Tent Vision.
Therefore, there is much blessing for that time of the fulfillment of the Tent Vision.
Without the fulfillment of the Tent Vision, we can’t be transformed, because that is where we are going to be given the faith to be transformed, the rapturing faith. Therefore, we are supporting that project of that vision that was shown to Reverend William Branham to be fulfilled in the midst of Christianity in the end time.
Without the fulfillment of that Vision there is no resurrection, nor transformation, nor rapture for the believers in Christ in the Last Day. It is as simple as that. And that Vision will be fulfilled in the Last Day, in the Age of the Cornerstone, in the midst of the believers who will be in the stage of the Age of the Cornerstone.
If it had been to be fulfilled in the time of Saint Paul: Saint Paul with his group were responsible for building that Great Tent Cathedral; and he was a tent builder too, so, for sure he had some tents for the meetings as well. But the Vision is for the Last Day.
If it would have been up to some of the seven messengers, like Reverend William Branham, he had to, with his age group, build that Vision, make it a reality; that is why he was trying, he said he was going to build a tent, he was going to be preaching such and such things; what is going to happen later on in the Age of the Cornerstone was being reflected in him.
What God at the end is going to do in the Age of the Cornerstone is reflected in the messengers of each age.
And the believers of the Last Day will have a manifestation of faith: By faith they will work in that project, for Christ to visit His Church, to have an encounter with our God in His final manifestation, where we will receive the rapturing faith, the faith to be transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
Remember that the revelation of the Seventh Seal will give us faith; and the revelation of the Seventh Seal is in the Seven Thunders. Did you see how simple it is? Because everything is so simple, it is complicated; because nobody expects such a great thing in a simple way.
On Sunday we will talk as much as we can about next Sunday’s topic, which will be: “BE PREPARED FOR THE COMING OF THE SON OF MAN.”
In the meantime, look for everything related to the subject of the Son of Man, and the blessings under the title of Son of Man. And also look for the one of Son of David, the Son of God, the Son of Abraham, because under those titles of Son there is an inheritance… that have some blessings for the people that have that manifestation of those titles of Son.
THE MESSIANIC AGE
(Ministers Meeting)
Dr. William Soto Santiago
Saturday, November 21, 2015
Cali, Valle del Cauca, Colombia
On page 37… I think everyone should have the book of Quotations and the book of The Seals and Ages, since that is Message of the forerunner for all believers in Christ, the Message that foreruns the Second Coming of Christ; and if you don’t know it, you will lose the blessing of seeing in the Last Day, in the Messianic Age, the Coming of the Lord. Like those who didn’t have the Message of John the Baptist, they lost the blessing of the Coming of Christ two thousand years ago.
THE CORNERSTONE
Dr. William Soto Santiago
Sunday, November 29, 2015
Cayey, Puerto Rico
After the resurrection and transformation…, Christ was with His disciples forty days, and then He ascended to Heaven and sat down at the right hand of God in the Throne of God.
That manifestation may be thirty to forty days, and then we will be gone from here. We will be transformed under that time of divine manifestation; and for which, we receive the faith, the revelation, to be transformed, which is the faith, the revelation of the Coming of Christ to His Church in the Last Day.
In the meantime, the words of Reverend William Branham were: “How will He come and when will He come? We don’t know.” And it is good that he doesn’t say it. What for? So that they don’t imitate him. Because everything is going to be so simple that when we come to realize it we will have the Cornerstone, the Chief Cornerstone with us, and with the Two Olive Trees. And then we will see that full manifestation of the Son of Man, of the Lord, with the Two Olive Trees: Moses and Elijah.
That manifestation will be the greatest manifestation of God on Earth, under the New Covenant in the midst of His Church. That will be where the elect who will be living in the end time will receive the redemption of the body, which is our transformation, the physical adoption as sons and daughters of God, with physical eternal life in young, immortal, glorified bodies, just like the glorified body that Jesus Christ our Savior has, which is as young as when He ascended to Heaven.
THE STONE WITH A NEW NAME
Dr. William Soto Santiago
Sunday, January 8, 2017
Cayey, Puerto Rico
Always the dispensational messengers have been persecuted to death, because the enemy of God has inspired people to make those persecutions; but God has always had the victory with the Sent One pertaining to each dispensation.
The most cared and safeguarded of all by God is the mystery of the Seventh Seal, the mystery of the Coming of the Lord; therefore, we have to be attentive to see it, hear it and identify it, and receive His Word corresponding to this end time.
God will write upon the Overcomer His New Name; New Name that is in the Stone not cut by hands, the Stone of the Coming of the Lord for the Last Day, which will strike the kingdom of the gentiles in the feet of iron and clay; a kingdom that has been passing from age to age, from stage to stage: it began in Babylon with Nebuchadnezzar as the golden head of that statue that represents the kingdom of the gentiles in Revelation and also in Daniel, chapter 2.
THE FIRST WAVED SHEAF
Dr. William Soto Santiago
Sunday, January 22, 2017
Cayey, Puerto Rico
We are in that age, we are in the time of the Sheaf being weaved for the blessing of going out to the promised land, of the divine revelation for the end time, and to receive the faith to be transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
The waved Sheaf, the first waved Sheaf: Jesus Christ. And for this end time there will be a waved Sheaf: The Son of Man promised to be manifested in this end time.
Therein lies the greatest mystery of the Bible for human beings, which will be the Coming of the Lord to His Church and then to the Hebrew people. It is as simple as that.
But that there may be no imitations, it is sealed in a mystery how He will come, when He will come, where He will come, and a number of other things; but He will come, for God has promised it.
And when the number of God’s elect in the Mystical Body of Christ is completed, all those who are written in Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life: then the time of mercy will be over; and the Lord will rise from the Throne of Intercession, where He is as High Priest according to the Order of Melchizedek, and will take the Book from the right hand of Him who sits on the Throne (that is, from God).
That Book is sealed, closed; since Adam lost it, it remained in the hands of God. For this end time is that the Lamb of God, Christ, will change from High Priest to King and Judge, and will take the Book, open it in Heaven, bring it to Earth open, and give it to a man to eat it and prophesy over many peoples, nations and tongues.
And that is where Israel will hear the one who ate the Book, prophesying over many peoples, nations and tongues. That is where they will also hear the preaching of the day of vengeance of our God; in other words, of the divine judgments, of the plagues that will fall upon the human race. That is where Isaiah, chapter 61, verse 2 will be fulfilled; because in the days of Jesus He came preaching the year of the good will of the Eternal, which corresponds to the Dispensation of Grace, where we have had about two thousand years of preaching the Gospel.
So we are in a very important time, where the prophecies pertaining to this end time, which are in parables, also in these Hebrew feasts and in other prophecies, have come together to be fulfilled in this end time; because they are the prophecies of the Last Day.
(…) Therefore, let us be prepared, because the Coming of the Lord, the Coming of the Son of Man for this end time, is the Sheaf that is waved, that is waved before God; and it is waved over the people for this end time, to bring a spiritual exodus and great blessings, and to give us also the faith to be transformed and taken with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Heaven.
There are great blessings sealed in the feasts that correspond to this end time. Then will come, at the end of the Feast of Pentecost, the Feast of the Fiftieth Year…; because the forty-nine years represent the seven ages or stages of the Church, where fresh Food, fresh Manna came every day, in each stage, through the Spirit of God in the messenger of each age, which they ate; and in each stage new food came, that is, fresh food, fresh manna for the people of Israel in their journey through the wilderness.
THE RETURN OF THE HEAVENLY CITIZENS TO THE HOUSE OF THE FATHER
—Introduction—
Dr. William Soto Santiago

Cayey, Puerto Rico
We are in a very important time, in which from one moment to another the door of the Dispensation of Grace will close and then the door of the Dispensation of the Kingdom will open, with the Messiah, the Son of David, as Lion of the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords in His Reclaiming Work. We are in a time for THE RETURN OF HEAVENLY CITIZENS TO OUR HEAVENLY FATHER’S HOUSE.
