The
Third Exodus
Spiritual Building-Stone No. 146
Revelation 18:4, "And I heard another voice
from heaven, saying, Come out of her, my people, that ye be not partakers
of her sins, and that ye receive not of her plagues".
Listen what God’s Prophet Brother Branham said about it:
God chose in
the days of the exodus, He called out a group and out of that group... I won't
you to notice something. He only got two, that went to the promised land (Numbers
32:6-12; Joshua 14:6-15). What did He choose to take them out by? Politics?
Organization? He chose a prophet with a supernatural sign of a Pillar of Fire,
that the people wouldn't be mistaken (Exodus 3:1-10). What the prophet said
was the Truth. God come down in a Pillar of Fire and vindicated Himself, showed
His Word. That right?
That's what He brought His first exodus. His second exodus... God always goes
in threes. He's perfect in threes. You all notice my preaching; it's always
threes and sevens. Seven is a complete; threes is His perfection. First, Second,
and Third Pull and oh, all, everything. See? Justification, sanctification,
Baptism of the Holy Ghost; Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, everything. See?
Notice, what did He do the first exodus? He sent a prophet anointed with the
Pillar of Fire, and He called the people out. That was His first exodus. And
when Israel's time was up, He sent again a God-Prophet with a Pillar of Fire.
John saw It descending from heaven like a dove (John 1:29-34; John 16:28).
And He said," I go to God, and I return to God."
After His death, burial, and resurrection, Saul of Tarsus, on his road down
to Damascus, saw that same Pillar of Fire. And him being a Hebrew, well taught
in the Word, said, "Lord, Who are You?" He knew it was the Lord,
that Pillar of Fire. He was a Hebrew. He said, "Who are You?" (Acts
9:1-8).
And He said, "I'm Jesus."
And here He promised the same thing in the exodus in the last days, and He
cannot change it (Mal. 4:5-6). And by scientific proof, by the witness of
the Spirit, by the works of the Spirit, we see it today, the great Pillar
of Fire moving among us. And the signs and wonders of the resurrection of
Jesus Christ calling the people from a denominationalism into the Presence
of Jesus Christ to live: going to a land.
There's no mistake, friends; it's not what I'm saying; I'm just your brother;
but it's what God's proving to you, what makes it the truth. Same Pillar of
Fire He used for the other two, He's brought it among you today and proved
it by scientific.
As you know, "Life" magazine packed it last month over there, where
a cloud twenty-six miles high in the shape of a pyramid: seven Angels represented
in there and brought back, and brought you the Word of God, under the inspiration
and tells you these hours that you're coming and living in. The spiritual
mind will pick that right now and get it. It's an exodus. We're going to leave
one of these days. Thanks be to God.
Now, all the mysteries of justification, sanctification, baptism of the Holy
Ghost is done explained. Now, it's picking up the loose ends of that which
is concealed in the Seven Seals; not the seven churches, the Seven Seals revealed
the Mysteries.
Notice, the Pillar of Fire that called them out, led them to the promised
land under the anointing of a prophet. A Pillar of Fire that they could look
at, led them to the promised land under an anointed prophet (Moses). And they
constantly turned him down. Is that right? Sure.
Watch it, we are in a calling-out. "Come out of Babylon, my people,"
said the Angel's voice (Rev. 18:4-5). Out of what? Confusion.
Is the Methodist right? or the Baptist? or the Catholic? Come out of it. God
is right. How do you know? "Let every man's word be a lie and Mine the
Truth." Come out of it. What do you know? The same Pillar of Fire, the
same anointing Spirit leading to the promised land.
Notice, led them, brought them out, led them to the promised land, Israel,
the nation; and the same God, the same Pillar of Fire...
If you're elected,
that Seed falls upon dry grounds or upon rocks, it'll never do nothing. Hard,
stony hearts that wants to be indifferent, but if It'll fall upon the soft
mellow ground of faith, It'll bring forth a Christian, bearing fruits of the
Spirit (Matt. 13:1-8,18-23).
Notice, how that God did that. Now, He's got that same Pillar of Fire; that's
vindicated. Somebody said, "Why don't you go tell them scientists about
that?" Do you think they'd believe it? "Cast not your pearls before
swine." Jesus said not to; I have no leadings to do it. Yet living right
in the city there, where they was calling for it. I thought I'd go down, and
the Holy Spirit said, "Stay away. It's not to them. Go back and tell
the Tabernacle."
All right, and it shall come to pass... "If what they say comes to pass,
then remember, I have spoken," the Lord said. See? Before it happens,
there it happens. Listen to the Bible. It's the Voice of God calling to you
in this day.
Now, I want you to notice, this same Pillar of Fire is leading, the people
again to a promised land, the millennium, where we found under the inspiration
of this Sixth Seal, that's never been taught before, how the earth has to
be purified for the millennium. The Pillar Fire is leading them to a millennium
(Isaiah 65:17-25). [1]
The Holy Spirit in the form of a Pillar of Fire, God coming down in manifestation brought out the first exodus and brought Israel out of Egypt. The second exodus was Christ bringing the church out of Judaism. And the third exodus is when the same Pillar of Fire takes the Bride from the church. See? Out of the natural, out of the spiritual, and the spiritual out of the spiritual, the three. See? The spiritual out of the church, rather, and then we get the three ages of it. [2]
Look at the Angel
of the Lord in a Pillar of Fire. Scientific search taken it to the world,
knowing that they're going to be judged by it. That Angel of the Lord, which
was Christ...
Where did that Pillar of Fire lead them? Now, remember, Moses was not the
Pillar of Fire. He was the anointed leader under that Pillar of Fire, and
the Pillar of Fire only vindicated his message with signs and wonders. And
that Pillar of Fire led them to the land that God promised them, where He,
Himself, would be made flesh among them someday (John 1:1-3,14-16). Is that
right? What did they do? Murmured and squirmered and everything else to show
it was under the blood of an ordinary lamb.
But this time, the Pillar that we see among us, the Pillar of Fire will lead
us to the millennium, where He will return to His people in that great millennium
reign after this exodus, where we'll live eternally with Him (Zechariah 14:16-21).
He always has the Word of the Father, always proves that It's right.
We are in an exodus, oh, my friends, my brothers, both present and that will
hear the tapes, let me as your brother and citizen of the Kingdom of God,
come out in this exodus. For all that's left behind will bear the mark of
the beast. Come out of Babylon; come out of this confusion; come out of these
systems and serve the living God. And let this great Angel of the Covenant,
Jesus Christ in the form of God, thought it not robbery to become equal with
God... (Phil. 2:5-11). Now, He's a Pillar of Fire in the same form that He
was back there bringing that first exodus, bringing the second exodus, and
here He is with the third exodus.
The first exodus, what did He do? He brought them out of a natural land to
a natural land. The second exodus, He brought them out from a spiritual condition
into a spiritual baptism of the Holy Ghost. Now He's bringing them from a
spiritual baptism of the Holy Ghost, right back into the eternal land of the
millennium and the great hereafter. Same Pillar of Fire by the same anointed
system, the same God doing the same things; and the same Word declared the
first one, declared the second one. The same Word declared the second one
has declared the third one, and here we see it among us.
Come out. Oh, come out of this chaos. Come to the living God. Come to the
Word. "And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us." And now,
He's in our flesh, dwelling among us. Come out and serve the living God! (I
Thess. 1:9-10). [1]
And now, in the midst of days when there's a lot of fanaticism and things, yet, God always identifies Himself. Now, we find this, and what a glorious thing it is to know that this earthly tabernacle, someday this old frail body that we're sick and afflicted in, will be changed and made like unto His own glorious body (Phil. 3:20-21). Then we shall see Him as He is and be with Him in the land that we're bound for today (I John 3:1-3). Oh, I--almost make us feel like standing and singing, "I'm Bound for the Promised Land." [3]

There´s coming one with a Message that´s straight on the Bible,
and quick work will circle the earth. The seeds will go in newspapers, reading
material, until every predestinated Seed of God has heard It. [ Bro. Branham
in „Conduct-Order-Doctrine“, page 724]
