EARTHQUAKES

ALASKAN

E-64 064 The first time the earthquake ever shook the whole earth was on Good Friday. The last time it shook it was another Good Friday. What did it shake for? Because they had rejected their Messiah. Why did it shake again? They've done the same thing. See? Laodicea church age, any scholar knows that He was on the outside knocking, try, "Lo, I stand at the door and knock." The only church age that ever completely put Him out.

42 022 Brother Roy Roberson from the church here, standing present, I guess all of you know him. Knowing he was a veteran and knowing what was going to take place, I put my hand on his shoulder, I said, "Brother Roberson, be careful; watch; something's fixing to happen."

I walked back to where I was supposed to be standing, and out of the air came a whirlwind, down through a canyon, from above, that was so great till it tore rocks eight or ten inches through, out of the top of the mountain, and throwed them two hundred yards out in, and clapped three times like that, and a voice came from it. See?

And all of them standing there... Brother Banks, present now, came up and said, "That was what you told me yesterday?"

I said, "Yes, sir, that's it."

He said, "Now, what did It say?"

I said, "Now, that's just for me to know, Brother Banks (See?), because it was... It would alarm people."

46 023 But It went ahead, it happened just a little... Traveling northward, a little, few days later It hit in the ocean, and you seen what happened around Fairbanks. It was a judgment sign. Now, we find that--that God still... You see, it'd throw people into panic. And so then that had--that had to happen. See? It just has to happen. The things that's got to happen has got to happen anyhow. See, it's going to happen anyhow.

145 066 Heavenly Father, take Thy Word, place It in human heart, that they... All the people together, tonight, this little bunch of people out here, we realize, Lord, that we are--we're living in the shadows of His coming, and the shadows are becoming more positive year by year. We see the signs appearing, fearful sights. We see in the newspapers and in the magazines. The moon's turning to blood. We hear of earthquakes all around the world, blasting the whole world.

And, now, one day it shook the whole world, when the Son of God was officially turned down and crucified. And now, we find out that a great group, called the World Council of Churches, they are officially turned Him out, like they said in the--this Laodicean age, He was on the outside of the church, knocking at the door, trying to get back in. And now we find there was another earthquake who struck this, not the other nations, this nation, shook the whole world: Jesus officially turned out. And He stands begging tonight, thoroughly identified the same yesterday, today, and forever.

CALIFORNIA

WHO DO YOU SAY THIS IS? PHOENIX AZ 64-1227

47 022 We find ourselves at this Christmas, just about like they did the first Christmas though. The world's just about to fall apart, as I preached on once somewhere, about a Christmas message, "The World Falling Apart." And the world again is just about to come to pieces. Look at the earthquakes over here in California. I predict before the coming of the Lord Jesus, that God will sink that place. I believe that Hollywood, and Los Angeles, and them filthy places over there, that God Almighty will sink them. They'll go beneath the bottom of the sea. And it's so much sin (You see?), it's the barrier.

Civilization has traveled with the sun, from... And it started in the east going west. And now it's at the west coast. If it goes any further, it'll be back east again. So that's the barrier. And sin has traveled with civilization, and it becomes the cesspool of all ages. Things they do that--that human beings in any other age wouldn't have thought of such a thing. Women has throwed theirself to such a filth, till no woman in any age would've ever thought of such a thing as we do today. And then still call ourselves Christians. What a disgrace.

BIRTH PAINS PHOENIX AZ 65-0124

17-2 036 So she knows she can't stand it. The people know she can't stand it, and the world knows that they're going to--it's going to happen, for God said it was. The whole heavens and earth is going to be on fire. It's going to be a renovation of the whole thing so a new world can be born. God has prophesied it.

She's rotten in all of her systems and she's got to do that to rot away. That's why she--I said she's so nervous and red in the face and flusterated, and earthquakes everywhere and up and down the coast and tidal waves in Alaska and shaking up and down the coast with earthquakes and things and people writing, "Shall we leave it? Shall we leave it?" See, they don't know what to do. There's no safety zone but One; that's Christ, the Son of the living God. And there's only one thing that is the safety zone, and that's Him; all outside of there will perish just as certain as God said so.

2-3 006 So I'm so thankful for this opportunity, and--and this fine meeting we had prior the convention certainly did thrill my heart. You're a fine bunch of people; I trust that God will bless you. And when the great hour ever... That great monster laying up yonder that flipped hisself over in Alaska a few days ago, threw its tail up again this morning along about down around Washington. He could head this way mighty easy. And if the Holy Spirit ever tells me definitely...

Some of you has been answering--asking me that: "Is it going to happen here, Brother Branham?" No, I don't know that. I just don't know, and till I do know... That's the truth. I always wanted to be honest with you. I'm just not going to presume, take any ideas, or some--what I believe, or something like that. When I tell you, it's going to be... Well, He's got to tell me first, and then I'll tell you. I--I know the whole world is in a shaking condition; we're at the end time. But one thing I've tried to be...

CHOOSING OF A BRIDE LA CA 65-0429E

35-3 085 That's solemn warning. We don't know what time. And you don't know what time that this city one day is going to be laying out here in the bottom of this ocean.

"O, Capernaum," said Jesus, "thou who exalted into heaven will be brought down into hell, for if the mighty works had been done in Sodom and Gomorrah, it'd have been standing till this day." And Sodom and Gomorrah lays at the bottom of the Dead Sea, and Capernaum's in the bottom of the sea.

Thou city, who claims to be the city of the Angels, who's exalted yourself into heaven and sent all the dirty filthy things of fashions and things, till even the foreign countries come here to pick up our filth and send it away, with your fine churches and steeples, and so forth the way you do; remember, one day you'll be laying in the bottom of this sea. You're great honeycomb under you right now. The wrath of God is belching right beneath you. How much longer He'll hold this sandbar hanging over that, when that ocean out yonder a mile deep will slide in there plumb back to the Salton Sea. It'll be worse than the last day of Pompeii. Repent, Los Angeles. Repent the rest of you and turn to God. The hour of His wrath is upon the earth. Flee while there's time to flee and come into Christ." Let us pray.

CHOOSING OF A BRIDE LA CA 65-0429E

35-6 086 Dear God, when in my spirit is shaking, my heart is dropping teardrops of warning, grant, O God, that men and women will not think of what I've said as a joke, and the church people will not think of it as something that was prejudice or against them. May they see, Lord, it's in love. Thou barest me record, Almighty God, that up and down this coast I went, year after year, proclaiming Your Word. Bear me record, O God, if it would happen tonight, I've told the truth. Thou knowest this vision of the Bride is the truth. I've took Your Name by it, Lord, and said it was, THUS SAITH THE LORD, and I feel that I'm conscious, Lord, of what I'm doing.

So I pray Thee, Lord, in Jesus' Name, let people shake themselves tonight and flee from the wrath that is to come, for the--Ichabod is wrote over the doors and over the nation. A black check mark is come across it; the Spirit of God is grieved away from it; and they're weighed in the balances and found wanting. The feast of King Nebuchadnezzar has repeated again with drunken parties and half-dressed women calling themselves Christians.

ASHAMED OF HIM JEFF IN 65-0711

60 024 This was a sermon that I preached on when, I believe, Brother Elij' Perry might have been deacon here in the church at the time, for all I know. But it said, "The time will come..." I didn't know it till Mrs. Simpson brought me the--the sermon the other day. And I got it wrote in a little book, that the desert, that the ocean shall weep its way into the desert. That was thirty years ago.

And, of course, the Salton Sea is about two hundred feet below sea level, and if that big churning, that earth swallowing in like that, with hundreds of square miles, hundreds and hundreds of square miles sinking into the earth, that'll throw a tidal wave plumb to Arizona. Sure, it would.

THINKING MAN'S FILTER JEFF IN 65-0822E

144 065 Nations are breaking; the world is falling apart. Fifteen hundred mile chunk of it, three or four hundred miles wide, will sink hundred--or maybe forty miles down into that great fault out yonder one of these days, and waves will shoot plumb out to the state of Kentucky. And when it does, it'll shake the world so hard that everything on top of it will shake down.

I HAVE HEARD BUT NOW I SEE SHREVEPORT LA 65-1127E

210 093 How about the Alaskan earthquake? Watch Hollywood fall into the sea. Uh-huh. Watch and see if it doesn't. He's never told me anything wrong yet; it'll do it. See? And just watch and see if we're not living in the closing hours of history.

LEADERSHIP COVINA CA 65-1207

326 117 Look here. Do you know what the Lord says about Los Angeles and these places here? "She's gone." You remember what I told you about two years ago, how that earthquake would come in Canada, up here in Alaska? I also tell you that "Hollywood and Los Angeles is sliding into the ocean. California, you're doomed, not only California; but you, world, you're doomed. Church, unless you get right with God, you're doomed." THUS SAITH THE HOLY SPIRIT.

Have you ever heard me use that Name unless it come to pass? Ask you. You've known me twenty years. Did I ever tell you anything in the Name of the Lord but what come to pass? If everything I've ever told you would happen, happened, say, "Amen." [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] See? I tell you, now is the hour, you better be getting right, all of us.

SIXTH SEAL

SIXTH SEAL THE JEFF IN 63-0323

432-5 {293} 103 I could say something awful good right here, but I guess I'll hold it till tomorrow night. See? All right.

... and have power over the waters to turn them to blood and to smite the earth with plagues as oft as they will.

What is it? What can bring these things but the Word? They can do nature anyway they want to. Here it is. They're the one who brings on this Sixth Seal. They uncover and open it up. It's the power of God to interrupt nature. See, the Sixth Seal, is completely an interruption of nature.

Do you get it now? There's your Seal. Who does it? It's the prophets the other side of the rapture. With the power of God, the Word of God, they just condemn nature. They can send earthquakes, turn the moon into blood, the sun can go down or anything at their command. Amen.

SIXTH SEAL THE JEFF IN 63-0323

440-5 {356} 125 Now, the one now is so soaked up with filth. As I preached here not long ago, I believe, preached in the Tabernacle, "The World Falling Apart..." That's exact. Look what's falling apart in the world. The... Everything's falling of it. Certainly it is. It's--it's got to fall apart. Yes, sir. Look, its frame. Let me show you the reason the world's got to do it. The frame of this world: the iron and the brass and the materials of this earth has been pulled out of it, its framework, for war and industry until it's just about ready...

Well, we never had an earthquake till the other day over here in this part of the country, till just the other day here (You see?), Saint Louis and down through there. She's getting so thin. They've pulled everything out of it. See?

Its politics are so polluted there's hardly a honest, among them. See? Its systems... Its morals is so low, they just don't have any. That's all. See? Sure. Its religion is cankered.

WHAT IS THE ATTRACTION? JEFF IN 65-0725E

96 045 Now, we see a last-day happening! Let's just turn a few pages on, in Zechariah, and see what he said about it. Let's turn it over then for the last days. That was the middle age; let's turn now to the last days. And turn over to Zechariah, the 14th chapter, and beginning with the 4th verse. And listen! And we're going to read down a portion of the Scripture, about nine verses, from 4 to 9. Listen close. And it's prophesying of His Coming, the last days, so listen close now. This is THUS SAITH THE LORD, It's the Scriptures. Zechariah 14. Remember Zechariah 9, what It said? And they didn't recognize It. Now, what is it today? Zechariah 14, speaking of His Coming:

And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives again, which is before Jerusalem on the east, on the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof towards the east and towards the west, and there shall be a very great valley;... half of the mountain shall be moved towards the north, and half... towards the south.

And ye shall flee to the valley of the mountain; for the valley of the mountain shall reach from Azal: yea, ye shall flee, like you fled in the days of the earthquake in the days of Uzziah the king of Judah:...

WHAT IS THE ATTRACTION? JEFF IN 65-0725E

97 046 Another earthquake splitting open the earth! If you want to follow out a Scripture here, notice in this 5th verse, it applies that the cleaving of the Mount of Olives is due to an earthquake, and this is confirmed by Isaiah 29:6 and Revelation 16:9. Exactly! What is it? The same prophet told of His first coming, seen His second Coming! Notice, "As in the days of the earthquake." See what the earthquakes are doing, see the predictions of them?

... and the LORD your God shall come, and all of His saints with thee.

And it shall come to pass in that day, (Hallelujah.) in that day, that the light shall not be clear, or dark:

But it shall be one day with... one day which shall be known to the LORD, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that in the evening time it shall be light. (O God!)
