ISRAEL AT THE RED SEA 2 JEFF IN 53-0327
114 Let's turn right now over to Ephesians the 6th chapter, just a moment, and read just a little bit here about what way we should be dressed up too, along about that time. All right. Ephesians 6:12, you that are putting it down.
For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against... rulers of... darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.
See where our wrestle is today? See
what the death angel is? It's spiritual
power, wickedness in high places, great places, big places.
Wherefore take unto you the whole armour of God, that ye may be able to withstand the--the evil day, and having done all, to stand.
Stand... Stand therefore, having your loins girded about you, with truth,...
I'll just hit that one, 'cause I want to get back to my subject. Watch him, he goes ahead and says, "the breastplate, and the helmet," and everything else. Wish we could dress that soldier up for you here, but we haven't got time.
E-13 This people has gathered
here under this canopy today to worship Thee. Many of Your children are getting
weary, Lord, they see these wicked prosper. But may they look at David, when
You spoke to him and said, "Yes, I've seen the wicked spread forth his
great bay tree," but said, "watch him at the end: that's when it'll
all tell. That hour when the death angel comes into the room, the fog begins
to float into the room and we know we're going down through the valley, then
what about it?"
E-47 Here it just sweep towards that house, and take death, there it takes death. Then the first thing you know, up over the house they go. "When I see the blood I'll pass--I will pass over you."
Yes, sir. The death angel is on today. And let me tell you something; it's sweeping the lands this day.
Listen, these churches and things that's having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof, You find out they go in there; it's not a natural death; it's a spiritual death. A natural death is not very bad, but a spiritual death, being separated, cut off from God, sinned away their day of grace. Went over and looked out said, "Bunch of holy-rollers, don't pay any attention to that." Devil's in the pulpit, as sure as the world. Certainly.

E-46 All right. I want you to notice, then he said, "I want you to take the lamb and kill it in the evening," perfect type of Christ, killed in the evening. And then the whole assembly of Israel was to witness the death. They did at Christ. And the blood was to be put on the door, for that night the death Angel was going to ride the land, and everywhere there wasn't blood there was going to be death.
And I tell you, brother: if there ever was a time
that the death Angel is riding the land, it's tonight. He comes to the church
door where the priest stands. And a church that's denying the Blood and the
power of Jesus Christ, there's...?... the glory of God had departed, the death
Angel goes in and that settles it. They become formal and dead and denying
God's power. And the first thing you know, death is all over the
whole group of them. You never get them to believe anything; they can't believe
it.

67-53 Now, the Advent brethren, the Seventh-day Advent brethren, they believe that--that Jerusalem will again be compassed about with armies. Well, now, that could be true, 'cause Scripture has a compound meaning many times.
And how many knows the Scripture has a compound meaning to every prophecy? Sure does. Yes, sir. It'll say it and mean it just exactly to this time, and turn right around and repeat it again back over here somewhere. See? Like... And I'll refer to one of them if I can think of it right quick. Oh, yes, here's one in Luke... In Matthew 2, said, "And Jesus was called out of Egypt that it might be fulfilled which was spoke of by the prophet, saying, 'My... I've called My son out of Egypt.'"
Now, that prophecy, referring back in there by the
prophet, was exactly referring to Israel (which was God's son) He called out of
Egypt (That's right.) in--in Genesis and Exodus. But it--it was referred to--to
there, but was repeating again. "Out of Thy..." Israel was
God's son. You know that. He told Pharaoh, said, "You..." Said that
"You--you..." what he had done to His son, that He would take the
life... He wouldn't let His son go, so Pharaoh... God taken Pharaoh's son
from... and... or the death angel that night. So it's a compound
meaning.

E-81 Seven or eight's raised their hand. Would there be another one, just raise up now, while the church is praying? Just raise your hand to God. God bless you. God bless the young fellow over here, yes. Someone else? Now, just keep your heads bowed and praying. Say, "Lord, what must I do?"
Oh, just think, your name may hanging on that bomb. You remember, the death angel may be at your door. You say, "Well, I will sometime." You may not have no other time. I hope you do, but you may not. You say, "Brother Branham, what's happened to you?" Oh, I see the end time, friends. I see the end is here.
And I've went across the nation; I've tried. I trust that God has give me favor with you. And see Him working, and seen how infallible, that God has confirmed that I've told you the truth. Now, I say with my hand before God, if I've ever told you the truth in my life, by anything, it's the truth right now, I tell you.

106 And when this woman's soul catches up
with her, and she says, "My God, I 'm lost."...
And they think it's, oh, it's delirious. They shoot a
hypo in, the needle to her, and she begins to numb off. She can't speak no
more. She's trying. She's a rolling. She's in agony. And the doctor says,
"Give her the other one; deaden her," until the death angel
sweeps her spirit from her.
But that hypo needle might deaden the flesh; it might
deaden the mind; but that can't deaden that soul that knows it's seen before
God. It'll haunt her through ceaseless ages, and through eternity. That soul
will still haunt and haunt and haunt, as the ages roll on.
You came from where? You go to where? You came out of eternity. You stepped into a little space called time. You go out of time into eternity. And what you are in your soul as you go out, the same you'll be. Oh, my. All right.
WHAT IS THAT IN
YOUR HAND SAN FERNANDO CA 55-1120
E-82 Dear God, as I know now I'm standing here between the living and dead. I've had to talk real hard this afternoon, because I felt You put it upon my heart, even after I got here. You said, "Shake the people."
And I just taught Your Word, and now some thirty or forty
hands has went up. I hope I'm not misjudging them, Lord. I believe they were
every one sincere. And they raised up their hands because that Something spoke
to their heart. And now, I'm quoting to You, Your Word, Lord Jesus, Who'll
meet them down there at the river one of these days when death is choking them
in the throat. The doctor's walked away from the house, said, "Well, he
will never come out of that attack." The baby's laying in there, choking
out with pneumonia, the little children, or whatever it might be. The
mothers and dads that's lived a long life and the death angel sets at the foot
of the bed, and the old cold vapors of the Jordan floating in their face,
but He will be there. You said, "He shall not come into
condemnation, but has passed from death unto Life."
May the Morning Star come out and light up the way for
them. And when the clods are thrown down on top of the casket, may the old Pine
trees whisper, "There's a land beyond the river."

E-22 [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] To show to the people to fulfill the Word, not that He had to, but the Word might be fulfilled. God wanted to fulfill His Word, and to seal the Messiahship of His Son.
There was a man dead, buried, laying in the grave, stinking. The skin worms was crawling through his body. All hopes was gone. But I see a little figure Who said there was no beauty in Him that we should desire, straighten His little stooped shoulders and said, "I am the Resurrection and Life," saith God. "He that believeth in Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live: whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die." Said, "Believest thou this?"
She said, "Yea, Lord, I believe that you are the Son of God that was to come into the world."
Upon the confession of that faith, and her faith in the
Son of God, God was going to display His power. And a man's soul that was
four day's journey, somewhere out yonder in the space, He made the death angel stand still while He raised that man
again to life; and corruption knew its
Master. And a man had been dead four days stood on his feet and lived
again. God made death stand still. Not only that, but in this resurrection He
proved His Messiahship.

E-29 Let's take a look now at Israel for just an example. (Now, I promised myself not to stay here a long time tonight at the platform, like I have been doing.)
Let's take a look at Israel, the night of the Passover
down in Egypt. That was the most horrible night that Egypt would ever saw, the
night of the Passover; the death Angel was in the land. Screams were coming
from everywhere. People in the streets screaming, mothers pulling their hair,
their youngest--their oldest child had just died. Big black wings of the
death Angel was floating through the land.
But Israel could set just as calm as they could be.
Why? They were people just like the Egyptians, but they had walked in God's
provided way. They had accepted God's way of refuge. They had applied the blood
to the door. And as long as they had walked in this way, God's provision, they
didn't have to worry about any kind of a death Angel or anything else, because
they were--had the promise of God that the death Angel would pass over them.

8-2 Have any of you all seen the Ten Commandments and saw the death angel, how it swept in, that dark, gloomy-looking shadow? It's on this picture. And I think it's on the bulletin board now. If it's not, Billy can hear me, why, have him put it on the bulletin board. And it's got the arrow pointing to the person. And the person... The shadow left the woman and--was miraculously healed. But there is like a hood of dark smoke gathered around and hooded over the lady, and hanging off on that cancer, like that, coming from that. 'Course that's the shadow where death is pouring into her from the cancer.
Well, no matter how much you try to tell people truth, there's somebody going to be suspicious that it isn't truth. And if you always tell the truth, then you know you're--you're right.

124 And any religion today that hasn't got
the Blood Life of Jesus Christ behind it, the death angel's on it (Right.),
death angel, separated from God. Yes, indeedy, Ichabod's wrote on every bit of
it that hasn't got the Blood.
You say, "Well, I'm glad, the Blood..."
If the Blood hasn't taken effect, if it hasn't taken effect and you see it in your life as a consecrated child of God, with what Jesus said would take place, then be careful, you might have something else besides the Blood. You might have a little injection of theology in there or something, a little inject of some sensation. You say, "I quivered. I shook. I danced. I've did this." Be careful.
If the medicine ever strikes you, it's good for every human being. It'll save from sin. It'll clean up from a life of sin, It'll make a different person out of you. It'll take the doubt away, and It'll make you a new creation in Christ Jesus. Amen.
Death struck Egypt. God separated a belief from unbelief that day by the--by the blood upon the door.

right up here; stand here just a moment. You without Christ, look, the hour is
getting late, friends. The death angel might separate between the Bride
and the church at any time.
