“The Gospel Trumpet”

Singing:
….Jesus washed my sins away.
… how … watch and pray.
Rejoice… everyway.
Happy day, .. Jesus..
Jesus washed my sins away.

Oh Praise God. What a happy day. When Jesus washed our sins away. Oh!
Halleluiah! Thank you Lord. Oh my! Glory! Amen. What can we say? God is
here. Amen. Just want to read a scripture to you. Just a few comments and
tonight, we have Brother Branham’s tape “The Communion.” And so, the Holy
Spirit told me, during this season and time, when we’re setting the church in
order, to set the communion in order.

So I want you to understand what it is so when you take it you know what
you’re doing. Been wanting to do it for a long time, and could never get
around to it. But now the hour is come where everything must be set in order.
So that would be the message, and ..Just a few comments tonight, to come
back around.

I never got to… to the message this morning, amen, and the message,….
What the message is all about, is going after the lost, actually. So maybe that
was a sign to you, Amen. Praise God! Adoption time is going after the lost.
You can get all the quotes you want to. But when God demonstrates.
Demonstration and the power of God? Amen.

Now I understand that Bobby would have been here today, but he had to
work all night, I believe. So praise God, it’s “Oh Happy day”. Amen. The
young ones are coming back, that went out without a revelation. And God’s
letting them go out in the streets. He’s got a blood cord tied to them. When
the hour comes it jerks them back in. Glory! Glory!

I Corinthians the 14th, Chapter, Verse 8. Praise God, Amen.

I Corinthians the 14th, Chapter, Verse 8.

For if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, who shall prepare himself to
the battle?

May God add a blessing to the reading of His word. Father, may you bless
the few words, the few comments, that would be spoken in this mighty
presence, that we feel here now. May it remain with us Lord… Amen! Surely
the presence of the Lord is in the house. In Jesus Name, may you bless the
few words that would be spoken. Amen, you may be seated.

Brother Norman just for the tape: “The Gospel Trumpet.”

I never got to it, this morning. The Holy Spirit, He said, “Cut off.” He actually
had told me before I started. He said, “now you know, you’re not going to get
through those notes?” Amen. So I wasn’t looking to, but I always like to be
comfortable. Amen. I don’t know what enemy might walk in and I can flip over.
Oh, I like to be armed. Amen. So anyway, my point this morning, that I was
trying, getting ready to make.

On, “The Throne of Mercy and Judgment” I never got to it. But I, want to
come back and make a message out of it, I mean.. to let you know what I was
talking about. I took the Voice of the Trumpet for a specific reason, purpose.
Amen.

So then, I’m going to read that purpose right now, to you. I have so many
quotes on the Thunders and so forth, which I haven’t done in years. But I see
all these new people here and on the tapes, that’s where it’s going, I want to
do it for them, but the Holy Spirit just cut it off.

See? I was coming back between the Sixth and the Seventh Thunder, to go
back and pick up, the different Seven Thunder inspiration, and prove it this
morning, and let God vindicate it. But ‘fore I got to it, He vindicated it already.
So, Amen. Anyway, on, “The Throne of Mercy and Judgment,” for the tape.
And we’ll come back to it, just study it later on if you want. I’ll put it on the
tape, where I’m getting this from, Amen.

So a new season is here, but you …I got to let…. the Prophet tell you of what
I was talking about this morning. So just about a half an hour or so. I hope.

Page 665, Paragraph 106. So we’re just going to do a little reading here,
you’re tired and you’ve been shouting, up upon the mountain, and down in
the Valley. I’ve never heard, this church, in all the years I’ve been here, with a
greater spontaneous, togetherness, in worship. This morning was the
greatest. I thought I was in Johannesburg. Glory! I thought I was in
Johannesburg. Cause in Johannesburg, the colored people have a way of
forgetting about their terrible plight and no housing, and no jobs and whatever,
and they enter into the Spirit.

Brother Nelson was telling me on his way home, he stopped over in

Johannesburg, he said, “Brother Coleman, they got a little classroom, and the
most can squeeze in there is little around two hundred or so. And then
outside. Now mind you, Brother Roscoe has over seven hundred people in
his church. And Pretoria altogether, and Klerksdorp. And there’s over a
hundred outside in the rain. Outside of a classroom.

Now picture where your children go to school and you stand out in the rain,
‘cause, classrooms are flat. And then you stand right outside. And you stand
outside by the ..maybe .. just whole section here is out, in the rain. You not
standing along the walls, inside, you’re out in the rain. And it’s cold, it’s
getting cold. And over there now their cold season’s coming, in. And there’s
no heat. And you’re out in the rain, and you’re trying to squeeze to hear what
they’re saying inside. Then suddenly you got such a faith in the rain, the
Power of God slays you out in the rain. And you’re laying down in the wet
ground. Singing and shouting, and receiving the Holy Ghost.

I mean, Brother Nelson saw that. And the Bontrager, their minds are blown
out, they seen that. That’s why the Holy Spirit is not pleased with these old
complaining spirits in here. I’m telling you. See? Nice place, and we try to do
everything, and the church order. And all we ask for you to do is to obey the
church order. So… Amen. See? the Holy Spirit, that’s all. Oh, may be seated.

Oh my! Now, Brother Branham here, says, let’s turn to Exodus 19th chapter.
Exodus 16th verse, that’s what I was striking this morning.
It came to pass, (God descended upon Mt. Sinai)
 4
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

And it came to pass on the third day in the morning, that there were
thunders and lightnings, a thick cloud upon the mountain, and the voice
of the trumpet exceeding loud; Now here’s the Prophet, “What is the
Voice of the Trumpet?” The Archangel.

This is my message, this morning. I come back tonight, so by the end of

tonight all will know before you go out of here, what hour is upon you. And I’m
not, no more responsible for your actions and your beliefs and whatever you
believe. Okay.

What is the Voice of the Trumpet? The Archangel. And all the people
trembled. Now remember the dream, you wasn’t here Wednesday. There was
three experiences over there. Amen. Just last week, and our sister, had a …
was.. there’s a group, well there’s everywhere, and these Ministers come
against the Seven Thunders. And a sister, in Brother Roscoe’s church, they
finally got her out. And she went with her son who’s against the seven
thunders. And … for a whole year. And then she’s there, and many of God’s
sheep are caught in… in thickets like that, and then there, …But because
she’s a true seed, God gave her a dream last week.

And showed her all of the South African Ministers standing under the Seven
Angel Cloud of February 28th, 1963. And suddenly they’re standing up looking
at the cloud. Well they’ve been doing that for last twenty years. Hearing the
tapes and preaching and so forth. And then suddenly fire came out of the
cloud, and then they … they were trembling and shaking. See? They wasn’t
trained to understand what that was. They had no revelation of what was
even coming. They just lived day by day, in the message. Hoping that they’ll
be caught up one day, like the Pentecostals.

Now God sent a message to… Thunders.. Adoption, Perfection, Child training.
If you cannot be child trained you’re a bastard. That’s what it is, what the
Bible says. One day Esau will wake up and cry, and will find no place of
repentance. Do you know what that means? In the Tribulation period, where
can you repent there? Where can Esau find a place in three and a half years
to repent, to be in the Bride, when he already had the chance for twenty years.
So hope you wake up tonight. I don’t even know what I’m gonna say.
 5
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

I’m just taking a few quotes here… I have all that in here, I didn’t even touch
that. But I’ll just speak, as I feel inspiration. Where will Esau find a place to
repent, and there is no place, because you’re over in the tribulation period.
There’s no Christ, there’s no nothing. And the Bride is gone, ..for three a half
years in glory. Amen, Brother George, I can see you sitting there. My, my!
Glory. And you’ll sing the song, “It was worth it all.” Glo…ry! My, my! Yes sir.
So hear what the Prophet says here.

Paragraph 107 Judgment! Whew! They had marched out there, and God had
given them grace to travel by, and we had grace for twenty years in judgment
to travel by since 1965, this has been judgment to the world, but Grace to a
Bride that would hear that Prophet’s message. But one day, Praise God, God
begins to Thunder on the mountain. Amen, the season changes, could have
been this morning, depending on whether you believe I’m the Pastor or not.
Amen.

Depending on whether you believe, God is leading me. Amen. if you don’t
believe it, well then you don’t believe it. Amen. And they wanted to see…
God wanted them to be interdenominational. They wanted to make a
denomination out of it, something that they could argue about. See? In here
we don’t give you nothing to argue about. Well I think this, and my belief says
this. We don’t… You can’t argue that in here. The Pastor’s laying down your
beliefs.

You ain’t got nothing to say. “Well.. how do I know?” Well check it by the
Word. Well, maybe you don’t know the Word, that’s why I’m here. Amen. Do
you … Do you know what I’m saying? Nobody here can sit in Moses’ seat
behind me. Moses is dead. Joshua’s behind me. He’s telling me, “take the
land”. “Speak the Word”. Glory! Amen. Maybe seated, Amen.

See? They want something to argue about. Dathan and Korah. My! I seen
“The Ten Commandments.” That little rascal, Korah and Dathan was arguing
with Moses all the time, fussing about, what we think and I think…and
suddenly, God had enough, He opened the ground up. My! Well, Glo..ry!

Something that they can argue about, instead of just following God and living
under His jurisdiction. Under His power, Grace had provided a Prophet, grace
had provided an atonement, a Lamb. And grace, had provided all these
 6

things, and yet they wanted judgment, they wanted something that they could
do. Whew! They want to do something.

And God said, “Assemble them together, I’ll let them know what it is. I’ll show
them what it is”. Read, Listen. And a Voice of the Trumpet got louder and
louder until it shook the earth. You mean to tell me, if what you’re saying is
true today, and this is the Voice of the Trumpet, from here on out, it’s going to
get louder and louder. It’s going to blast in Penn Harris and blast loud in Tulsa?
Louder and louder, until the graves will shake loose, California shall sink.

Once more, the World will hear direct from God, as at Pentecost. Can you
imagine somebody telling Peter, what they thought on the day of Pentecost,
when God Himself, was anointing Peter to say, “This is That.” Some Pharisee
say, “Well, I think… I don’t believe that.”

On the day of Pentecost, My! And there was the Holy Spirit pouring out,
nobody had anything to say. The only thing, that they could say, was “Men
and brethren, what shall we do to be saved?” You mean to tell me, the hour is
coming when God’s going to stop the critics mouths? He sure will. God’s
coming off the mountain, thundering, lightning, judgment. The critics mouths
shall be shut. Glory! What a fearful time! Let’s check up now.

“Assemble them together, I’ll show them what it is.” May be seated. Read
listen. And the Voice of the Trumpet got louder and louder. And …you see
what the judgment is? I don’t want that. Give me mercy.
Page 666. Amen. Now how could I read these quotes behind that anointing,
this morning? It’ll be impossible Amen. God was just here Brother, that’s all.
Amen.

Now here’s on worship. People sit in the back of the church, and laugh at
somebody that’s speaking with tongues. Or dancing in the Spirit. Gone,
blasphemed the Holy Ghost. See? Sealed forever. Whoever speaks a word
against the Holy Ghost will never be forgiven in this world neither in the world
to come. Don’t gaze upon it, stay away from it, or either accept it. Don’t sit
here and criticize. Amen, accept it, or…praise God, the Prophet said, stay
away from it. We better leave that scripture, read on, the rest of it. See? What
God said, and the people said, “Oh Moses you speak, don’t let God speak
 7

anymore.” We wish we, … “we wish we hadn’t have had, had asked for this.
Let you speak to us Moses, if God speaks we’ll all die.

See? God had made an atonement. And let me break in here. Therefore
there was God speaking, and the people were trembling and shaking. They
couldn’t take that. And then God said, “Alright Moses, they don’t want to hear
the Thunder, that, ..which is my Voice. It shakes them, they tremble. They
can’t stand for man to preach hard. They shake! Amen. So therefore, from
now on, I won’t speak by a Thunder like that, I’ll put the thunder in a man’s
mouth.

I’ll take the same Thunder, loud noise, shaking, fire, smoke, and I’ll put in
your mouth Moses, and then from…and after you it’ll be in every Prophet’s
mouth. Amen, then I’ll come down myself and I’ll thunder. Then I’ll call my
disciples, and Apostles and they will thunder. And Paul will thunder, and
Ireneaus, and Martin, Columba, and Luther, and Malachi 4 will THUNDER!
Amen.

Can you prove that preacher? Sure, Sit down. Amen. So now we got it. The
Thunder, is only beca… the only reason why you’re not hearing… not coming
in here praise God, laid on the floor somewhere, and thundering and lighting
and Voices. Because the people they asked God not to, not to do it that way.
Let Moses speak, so therefore, God said, “Okay, I’ll let Moses speak and
have Prophet after Prophet, and that will be the order, until the finish” But it’ll
still be thunder and lightning, and judgment, whether you believe it or don’t
believe it. Amen.

My! Then, page 667, paragraph 116. I took Revelation 4, verse 1 through 5 I
took it for a reason, I’m just chopping it up. “Come up Hither.” John
representing the Bride. Therefore, the Bride was caught up, I Thessalonians,
4: 16, Shout, Voice and Trump. But who could have thought, at the end of
Revelation 3, the Pentecostal Age, that we thought, … that we would just go
off the earth. But who could.. who could have thought, that we’ll be here
twenty years, on the other side, in Revelation 5, that’s the Bridge, Another
Ephesians that connects to Glory land. Who could have thought that we
would be in the Spirit of the Lord, in the last days? And like John seeing the
whole thing down to the end.
 8
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

You mean to tell me that the Shout is part of the… being in the Spirit on the
Lord’s day? And that Voice that called us the first time for the Rapture, that
Voice is also in Revelation 10:8. The Voice said, “Come Up Hither.” Says
now, today, this morning, Praise God. Hear it, believe it, recognize it, act
upon it.

That voice must prophesy again John. So John’s prophecy was interrupted in
Revelation 10. And the Angel come down, a Prophet had to come. Call out a
Bride. When did it happen? Just before Revelation 11, the two Prophets
coming on the scene. Just before the Seventh Trumpet sounds, a Bride will
step out with the Voice of the Trumpet, the Voice of the Archangel. The
Gospel trumpet shall sound.

All these people in this message, that swear they’re in the message. The
Gospel Trumpet will sound, back to the Bible, back, Praise God, to the
principles laid down on the day of Pentecost. It’ll be so different, it’ll tear up
the churches, it’ll smash up the church devils, Praise! It’ll set that church on
Fire for God.

Is that what you were talking about this morning? Maybe it wasn’t the season,
the time. Maybe He wanted me to talk it out to you. But He wants you to know
it New York City. May be seated. Oh! Now Revelation 4, is the Rapture.
You’re catching what I’m saying now? Oh, let me break it down to you.

The Pentecostals think they will be in the Rapture. Then God catches you
and I away in the Spirit of the Lord, with a message. And we’re already in part
of the Rapture, yet we’re here. And all that John saw, we have the revelation
of what he wrote and saw. Now John represents the Bride. I had all the
quotes and everything.

John knew what the Seven Thunders was, but John did not know what the
Seven Seals was. The Seven Seals was the Prophet’s message. And under
the Seventh Seal was Seven Thunders that the Bride of every age heard. But
the Seven Seals was the Prophet’s message. But the Seven Thunders was
the Bride’s message. Bride’s revival! Malachi 4 knew what they were, he put
it on the tape, but he.. God left the vacuum for the Five-fold Ministry to come
along. I’ll prove it to you in the minute.
 9

Now, do you.. got Revelation 4 now? Here upon the throne. I got time. Here’s
the Prophet. Now the Voice of the Throne. Notice in this throne, before the
Throne was seven stars. The Voice of the Stars, Voices you see? There was
more in Revelation 4, here 5 we find out.

And out of the Throne, proceedeth, lightning, Thunder, Voices. Now just
remember, this is judgment here. Amen. Not one Voice, Voices (plural). What
is it? God speaking to the church, reflecting Himself through the Seven Spirits.
Amen. When the true anointed of God speaks it’s the Voice of God. To reject
it, is to remove the Candlestick. See? Voices, the Voice of the Seven Church
ages. Over here in the corner, the Voices speaking with thunder and lightning.

Do you know what I’m saying? Take this revelation, to Europe and different
places and when they reject it, the Candle stick leaves, spiritual death strikes.
They don’t know it. See? Cause the secret. My! Then he said, the preacher’s
called to preach his. He tell you preachers, If you don’t,…. he says, see here.
The man of God, he says here, he says, “Live your sermons. Don't try to
preach them if you're not called to be a preacher; you get all mixed up,
anyhow, and messed up, and you'll get people tangled up, and you won't ..
Well, you'll ruin them and yourself too. Just live your sermon.”

The preacher's called to preach his and to live it too. If you can't live it, then
stop preaching it. But you're supposed to live your sermon. Alright, here
Voices. Oh, how we need in Jeffersonville, thousands of lived Voices. I spoke
this in Georgia. This is where I got it from, and it thundered, and look where
you’re at now? Right out of here, is where I got it from.

He said, do it back again, because you’re doing the Seven Thunders again.
Amen, don’t worry you wont see Brother Coleman no more. I gave my
testimony. Praise God! I got one more next week, and I’m finished. Oh!
Praise God! Amen. Thousands of lived voices, the thunder of God thundering
out in sweetness, and holiness, purity, undefiled lives, walking around the
earth today without a blemish. Yes, sir, real Christians, that's thunder against
the enemy.

The secret is out, what’s the Thunder Brother Coleman? Behind me. That’s
Thunder, Faith, Virtue, Knowledge living, is Thunder, against the enemy. Oh
my! That’s the Thunder against the enemy.
 10
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman

The Devil don't care how loud you can holler; the Devil don't care how much
you can jump, how much you can do this or shout. But what hurts the Devil -
to see that sanctified, holy life consecrated to God; say anything to him, (you
understand me now, patience, see? ) Call him anything, just as sweet as it
can be and move right on. Oh, my. That throws him away; that's the thunder
that shakes the Devil. Amen.

See? He says, not Billy Graham, and Oral Roberts and them. He said, the
devil sometimes just laugh at that. He pays no more attention to that than
nothing. You get all the Theology you want to, and all the quotes whatever
you want to get. Amen. That don’t mean nothing. And the Devil just set back
and laugh at it. But when he sees that life...

Amen. And here come, nine disciples and the devil laughed at them. Brother
Branham says, here they are, "Come out of him, devil. Come out of him, devil.
Come out of him, devil." The devil setting there, said, "Now, aren't you making
a pretty shame of yourself? Now, you see what you're doing? Jesus told you;
He commissioned you to cast me out. Not one of you could do it." Why?
They didn’t have the Holy Ghost. The Season had changed, yet they had
power in the message to cast out devils and preach the Seven Seals.
But Jesus took His disciples upon the mountain.

Peter James and John and the season changed in the message. And nine
disciples was down there, and God had told them to cast the devils out, and
there was an epileptic and they couldn’t cast it out. And the devil sat back and
they laughed at them. But down the mountain, off of Mount Pyramid, here
come Jesus. Here come Faith, here come, Virtue, and Knowledge and
Temperance, and Patience, Godliness, Brotherly Kindness, and Charity. And
he says, “Come out Devil.” Has that hour arrived? The season changed?

Oh… my! My! Oh, but oh Brother, when they seen Him come. One come
walking quietly, He didn't have to say nothing. That devil was already scared
right then. He knowed he had to leave because there come a Life, not only a
sermon, but a Life. "Come out of him." Oh, my. That done it. Quietly, He
knowed what He was talking about. He knowed what he was doing.

And so will you know when this is in you, and that anointing is sitting up on
top of you. Joseph’s coat. That Voice of the Archangel is hanging inside, and
 11

Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

somebody.. when your critics run up to you then, that Voice of the Trumpet
speak out. Praise God. Why I say, Voice of the Trumpet. Because Voice of
the Trumpet, is judgment. But it is the Voice of the Archangel calling in the
family. But judgment to who? To the church members that had a chance to
receive the Thunders. So God’s calling in Mikey, and Napthi, and different
ones in the family. And the others, some of them’s just going away. What’s
going on? The Family time. Come on to the Lord’s house, it’s going to rain.
You mean it’s happening now? Sure is.

My! Why it could change Brother Coleman. I might be caught with the wrong
attitude. I know that, That’s why I’m stringing out tonight. Glory! My! Oh my,
yes sir. Voices. He said here. Alright here. One, two, three, four, five, six,
seven. Seven stars, seven lamps, seven Messengers, seven Spirits, not
altogether meaning that God's in seven Spirits, but seven manifestations of
the same Holy Spirit. Amen.

Where's the Holy Spirit? Right, here at the throne, shining out in each church
age. This church here, age is reflecting back this a-way the voices of God,
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever. Seven... was voices
and seven lamps on fire, seven Spirits--which are the seven Spirits of God."

Amen. Page 672. Praise God! Thrones, lightnings, seven lamps, seven stars
called seven spirits, meaning seven manifestations of the Holy Spirit of the
Seven Church ages, at the Seven Seats of mercy for the people. Here they
are, seven seats of mercy, seven seats, seven churches, seven stars, seven
manifestations, seven Spirits, seven lamps, oh my! How God is so perfect.
Oh I see, Brother Coleman, when you’re coming back and you’re proving
these things, between the Sixth and the Seventh thunder.

You’re proving it tonight, amen, can’t a man come against it. Proven, they
may not understand it, but they can’t come against it.

Revelation Chapter 5 page 783, paragraph 203. What is those Seven Spirits,
you’re talking about here? Them Seven Messengers. The Prophet said, that
the Seven Spirits is Seven Messengers? My! Them seven Messengers. Well
who are they? They’re St. Columba, Ireneaus, John Wesley, Martin, Luther
and so forth. See? The Seven Spirits which are seven men. Seven Spirits are
seven men? My! Yes, seven Angels, which are seven Messages. Well, then
 12
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

how can you separate the Spirit from the man, and the man from the
message? How can you separate the man from the Thunders?

My! Well, that’s really something. Seven seals, seven Spirits, seven Angels,
seven horns, seven Churches. Seven, there’s five sevens, which is seven is
perfection, and five is grace. And God’s grace to His seven church ages, His
seven messenger men. His seven Spirits of God, the seven planned seals of
redemption we’re in right now. The seven horns which mean seven ages, and
the seven horns mean power. Oh praise God!

Now, we see Brother Coleman, you didn’t covet worship and everything else,
because you said, “in worship don’t blaspheme.” Yes sir. My! So now what is
going on here. This is the Gospel trumpet. Amen. Almost finished. Amen. I’m
laying it back tonight. The Gospel Trumpet. Revelation 4, book … book 11,
your white Book series, page 577. Glory!

Now, 577 paragraph 150. That Voice, let’s speak on that Voice tonight. I got
some scriptures wrote down here. Let’s go to I Thessalonians 4 and just listen
over here, of what this voice is going to say. Oh, we all know what it’s gonna
say, before we read it, don’t we? We know what’s going to happen.

The Trumpet of God shall sound and the dead in Christ shall rise. Is that right?
You look down at I Thessalonians,4: 16 and 17. The Voice, that Voice, was
the Voice of Christ, is that right? The Voice of Christ. For the Trumpet shall
sound the dead in Christ shall rise, Amen. The same Voice that summoned
John to come up, the same Voice that said to John, “come up”. Is the same
Voice that summons the church some day.

Amen. Summons the church. Did you hear what I said? John was summoned
by the Voice to come up. That same Voice will come back to summon the
church. That was the Voice of Christ, that was the Trump. And that same
Voice the Voice of the Trumpet, is already calling the Bride for the last ten
years, out of the message, by the Seven Thunders. It’s a call to the
resurrection.

Brother Branham said on, “Recognizing your day and it’s message.” You’re
called for the sounding of the Trumpet. You mean we were called together till
 13
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

1984 and for the Trumpet to sound? The Voice of the Trumpet will sound, and
April the 1st, 1984? What for? A Call to the Resurrection.

My! Brother Coleman what time is it Sir? What hour is upon us? My! Could be
happening any time. Well, you mustn’t be fooling around now, ‘cause any
time. Oh Glory! May be seated. Let me say it again. “Come up.” Same Voice
that summons the church. Also the same Voice that summoned John to come
up. Is the same Voice that summoned dead Lazarus out of the grave. That
same Voice of the Archangel , Christ is the Voice of the Archangel.

Voice of the Archangel. see? Oh, that Trumpet Voice! . The Trumpet Voice is
the Voice of the Archangel. Brother Branham didn’t hardly leave any
scriptures, or quotes rather, for the Voice of the Archangel. But a revelation
followed. Amen. And the Voice of the Archangel is A Voice of the
Resurrection, and it comes at the last Trump, the Trump of God. Amen, the
Voice of the Trumpet. And the Voice of that Trumpet is the Voice of the
Archangel. Has called you here already.

Now He’s switching over, getting almost ready, as Brother Ronny seen the
Angel getting ready to put it to his mouth, but He had to call the family first.
But while he’s calling the family. I’m gonna finish in about ten minutes. I hope
He’s gonna do, something else. And then I’m gonna finish, Amen. Oh Glory!
Also the same Voice that summoned John.

Okay, Voice “Come up” Same Voice that summoned Lazarus, “come up
here.” Did you get the point here? Amen.
578 (155). That same Voice, Amen. That same Voice, that shall sound, when
the dead in Christ shall rise, for the Trumpet, the trumpet. What is A Trumpet?
Here it is now. What is A Trumpet? The Voice of Christ.

Are you following what I’m saying? You mean to tell me that the Voice of the
Trumpet is the Voice of Christ? And the Voice of Christ, is that final Voice to
the Final Age, which is the Voice of the Archangel? And I come against that?

Where do I stand to come against the Voice of Christ, the Voice of the
Archangel, the Voice of the Trumpet? Where will I stand? After I’ll be judged
for April 1st I was there When the Voices, thundering out on that great
cataract. The Voices on the waters, and the peoples the waters, the Ministers
 14
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

Voices crying out. Week after week after week, and year after year to the
people. And how they’ll stand and face the people. Come my son, did you
speak, you preached my Word.

And then they go, can you imagine, somebody trying to tell God on the White
Throne judgment, “well I didn’t like the way he preached it.” A human being,
would stand at the White Throne of Judgment, and tell God, that they didn’t
like the way that Pastor preached the Word. And God said, what I sent that
man, I put myself in him and ordained him. And you don’t like the way he
preached it?

“Who art thou, oh man?” My! Don’t you know, that, that was Thunder and
Lighting and fire. Veiled in a man, in His Voice, whether he was black, yellow,
red or white. Praise God! My! The Trumpet, the Voice of Christ. The same
one that turned, and summoned him up. Voice like a Trumpet. Now he said,
“Come up Hither.” See how the resurrection will be? See how the resurrection
will be? “Come up Hither”. Call to the resurrection. Glory! It’ll be in a moment,
in a twinkling of an eye. That clear sounding Voice, He’ll summon the church,
for here he says, “Come out of it” That Great summoning Voice, Amen.

God help me to hear it in that day. Whew! My! The Trumpet of God shall
sound, there’s nothing uncertain about that. Oh my! Oh! I don’t want to take
too much time here. The Trumpet! Oh my! Almost finished, praise God, I’m
doing good. Amen, Kind of rush this in here.

“Uncertain Sound.” Page 24, paragraph 170, this is being on tape, amen,
you’ll come back to this. Amen. Anything that's dead gives a sound. A dead
thing, dead churches, or whatever more, can give sounds. But unless there is
a distinction in the sound, unless there's some way that we can be certain...
See?

I got Scriptures here, wrote down here about soldiers. Soldiers can... In the
days of their training they are trained to those bugles. You’ve been trained to
seven bugles.

So when the seven bugles become one bugle, and speaks out through a man,
that’s Faith, Virtue, Knowledge, Temperance, Patience, Godliness, and
Brotherly Kindness. Why? You were trained for ten years. So when a Minster
 15

come in this church, speaking... And the deceiving age that’s here, and ye
being, maybe anointed. You’re trained. Something about that Voice, don’t
sound right. I don’t care how many signs and wonders he’s got. Glory!, you’ve
been trained by Seven Thunders. Dit ta..da..de… dit…ta… da…. De. (Brother
Coleman makes a trumpet sound …- ed)

Halleluiah. Glory! Here’s how you’re trained. And you notice, each sound,
and how them sounds to retreat. Amen, when devils walk in here, (dit, ta.. da..
de) that means Praise God. You’re trained to praise the Lord, when a demon
power comes in here.

Oh! When he gets real quiet, you’re trained, you say, “Amen”. If you’re the
only one, you’ve been trained, to say Amen to the Word. Can’t no demon
power smother you down. You’re trained. You know where you come from,
know who you are. Oh! It sounds to retreat. When the demon’s up in your
face and trying to overpower you in your church, you’re trained to drop back
for a second, let God take over.

You didn’t relinquish any power. You just let him make… let his folly be made
manifest. It’s like a game of chess. “I’ll do this and I’ll do that.” “I’ll trump you.”
Or “I’ll trump you”, then, “I’ll trump you.” But I‘ll do this here, but then one day
the Voice of the Trumpet, will trump you.

Keep on playing games. The Voice of the Trumpet, will trump you, and that’s
the final trumpet. Final Voice, oh my! Sounds to retreat, or what to do, and
everything, they’re trained by a sound. And if they didn’t know that sound. If
you don’t know any thing about the Thunders. How would they know to
prepare themselves for the Gospel scriptural war? My!

That’s right. But they are trained to that sound. And they know when that
sound goes it means a certain thing. My! For if the Trumpet don’t give a
certain sound, how can we know, how can we prepare the battle. My! My!
Page 26. Amen. Paragraph, you maybe seated.

192, Amen. There’s only one certain sound, that’s the gospel. Prepare for the
battle. What battle? The coming of the Lord. See the battle? What’s the
coming of the Lord? Shout, Voice, Trump, the battle. I’m proving it to you.
 16
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

We’ve been in a battle. Amen. But we’ve been trained. Abraham has been
training his men and his house, Amen.

The coming of the Lord, prepare yourself for battle, against the evil. When evil
is besetting the people on every hand. Everything going wrong, and home life,
going wrong. United nation failing. And the nations breaking. Atomic bombs
around, homes are splitting up. Motherhood going low, and immorals among
the people, distrust amongst one another, and all the denominations fussing
and stewing. And what do you do? Be certain, prepare yourself for the battle.
Oh my! Glory! Now, …almost finished, Amen, Praise God!

“Sir’s is this the time?” Okay, now. The thought was “The Gospel trumpet.”
Page 32, The Sounding of the Trumpet, means Gospel Trumpet. And the
sounding of a trumpet in the Bible means, get ready for scriptural war. Okay?
Are you getting it now? And if you want to put this down, I Corinthians 14: 8
Paul said, “if the trumpet give an uncertain sound, how will a man know how
to prepare for?”

And if it doesn’t have a scriptural sound, a vindicated, a vindication of the

Word of God made manifest, how will we know it at the end time? How are
you going to know here, in this message? If it says, they believe, Jesus Christ
is the same, yesterday, and today, and forever, but deny His signs and
wonders, that the whole realm of nature believed on him, and all the church
believed on him, by this. How will we know how to prepare? Amen, somebody
come forth with a chart and all drawed out.

Notice, if it gives an uncertain sound, What’s that? Unscriptural. See? Who

can prepare himself. With all these interpretations in the message, they don’t
know what to do. But the Seven Thunders is the scriptural sound. So a Bride
has prepared herself, Praise, God, for the Voice of the Archangel to connect
to the Thunders.

That was.. that was the second thing happened over there. Oh yea.. …last
week in Johannesburg, I gave you one, oh yea, that’s right When the fire fell
out of the cloud, the Ministers was trembling and shaking, amen. And then,
they trembled and they shaken. And they didn’t know what to do. And Brother
Roscoe rose up, and saw, said.. “Lord what would you have me to say next?”
 17
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

What has he been saying? “Seven Thunders give faith”. But fire fell, “Lord
what’s the message? What do I say?” I’m preaching it now.

The Gospel Trumpet, shall sound, scriptural war. Brother Dave is ready, his
sword is pulled. Brother Tommy is ready, Brother Waters, Gabriel, Brother
Luke, Brother Frank, Europe, South Africa they’re ready. Brother Lebron, is
ready to chop the tent to ribbons, in Peurto Rico.They’re just waiting, just
waiting, Tut, ta..da.. da… tut.. ta… da… da..(Brother Coleman makes a
trumpet sound- and knocks the pulpit three times - Ed)

But somebody got to speak it first. Somebody got to come on the scene, and
repreach the Seven Thunders again. And tie it in between the Sixth and
Seventh, the Gospel Trumpet. The Voice of the Trumpet. Number eight.

Then a sister had a vision, Angel of the Lord appeared to her and said, say
after me, three times, “Number eight, number eight, number eight”. Now go
tell them…or him to preach that, preach number eight”. Charity! Headstone!
Then, Brother Alphy Daniels the Angel of the Lord, walked into his room last
week. Said, “Tell Brother Roscoe, that if he continues going along like that, he
will connect the Seven Thunders to the Headstone.

Oh, what are you doing Brother Coleman? I’m connecting the Seven
Thunders to the Headstone. When? April the 8th. What is April? A Change, a
new season, a new time, Spring time, when life comes forth. Oh my! God told
me February 29th, you must preach the Seventh Thunder and tie it into
Charity the Headstone on April the 8th. I said, “Well, Lord, I’m tired, maybe I
can do it this..” He said, “Do it on, the 8th.” Then Wednesday I called Brother
Roscoe and then I knew why. Always obey the Lord. Who’s going to break
that? The experience of it in South Africa, and the Word of it going forth here.

Is it scriptural? Well you should know, you’ve been trained. Scriptural! See,
when it’s scriptural, you had … you’re free. You could walk in here, you can
relax, and you know that Brother Nino’s going to preach a scriptural message.
Brother Joey, and Brother Junior, you can relax. Not worried about what
somebody’s gonna slip something over on you. If they’re going to blast sin,
they blast sin.
 18

Repent! And that’s it. There’s nobody here perfect. If you are, you should be
in the rapture. As long as you’re not in the rapture, you’re here, for correction.
Everybody is.

And you have things in you, that you know nothing about. That means
everybody in here. Amen. Glory! My, my! The Prophet, used to call all kind of
sins out, on the platform even, adultery and filth, on the platform. Even on,
“The Wings of a Snow White Dove.” On the last messages, he called out a
cigarette sucker, right on the prayer line in front of everybody.

God don’t play with your sin. He ain’t gonna cover your sin up. The Proph…
you mean a Prophet is going to speak nice and sweet and don’t reveal sins.
The Prophet come to reveal sin. Who’s sin? Your sin, my sin. That’s what his
message is all about. You mean to tell me that I really was blind? Naked?
And.. wretched and poor and miserable? And, I’ll stay that way, until I’m
adopted? Oh! When you’re adopted, then that’s different. But you ain’t
adopted yet. Well, you got to hear the Word, from the Pastor. My!

Okay, who can prepare himself. The Trumpet. Did you notice each one of
those ages? I told you about the church, coming in there. When the trumpet
sounded, a seal tore loose. A Trumpet means war. You understand what I’m
saying now? A Trumpet means, war. Is that why you’re preaching the Voice
of the Trumpet? You mean the war, gonna be declared. I’m going to prove it
to you here. If it don’t give a scriptural sound, But this Trumpet must give a
scriptural sound. Just can’t declare war for no reason.

It’s got to be a reason. About twenty years of heaped up filth, interpretation.

That’s the reason. Amen. Oh my! My, my! Sha! Amen. But what about it? But
let me call this to your memory. Don’t miss it now. Notice, each church age,
had it’s messenger. We know that Paul was the first. And when the first
Trumpet sounded, the first seal tore loose, Paul was the first messenger as
we found. What did he do? Declare war. On what? The orthodox church, for
not believing the Messianic sign that Jesus had produced to them. Why?
They should have known it.

Now you know I’m gonna wind up on this one huh? Scriptural war has to be
declared. Why? For not believing the Thunders, My! Not believing Adoption,
 19
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

Perfection, and the Baptism of the Holy Ghost in 1983. See the Scriptural war?
My!

And Paul was the messenger in the Orthodox church. Why? They should
have known it, they should have known him. Remember, Paul came at the
end of the age. Now watch, all messengers, come at the end of their age. It is
the end time, when these things are brought forth, and Paul knowing the
scriptures and knowing that Jesus was Messiah. Blasted those synagogues,
from place to place, with the scriptures, and was put out of every one of them.

Till he finally shook the dust from his feet and turned to the Gentiles. What
was it? The Sounding of the Trumpet. And the Angel messenger standing
there, with the Word, Oh my! Don’t miss that. The Word. And Paul with the
unadulterated interpretation, of God’s Word blasted everyone of those
synagogues. Cost his life. Amen. How would you go down to Ireneaus, the
messenger of the next church age, and Saint Martin, the next church age,
when they begin to get the doctrine of the Nicolaitanes begin to come in?

They blasted that age. Saint Martin blasted his age. Luther, the fifth
messenger, blasted that Catholic church with the Word of God. "The just shall
live by faith," he said; and "This is not the literal body of Christ," he threw the
communion on the floor, walked out, and blasted that Catholic church. That
trumpet sounded. That is right?

Brother Coleman, what are you talking about? Oh my! A Scriptural war, is
going to be declared. That Trumpet sounded, John Wesley, raised up in the
days of the Anglican church, when they said, "There is no more reason to
have revivals," And it went to seed. But John Wesley stood with a message of
the second work of grace: sanctification. He blasted that Anglican church with
the Gospel trumpet prepared for war. Oh my!

Now, we're in the Laodicean age, when they have again denominated:
Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, Pentecostals, and we're looking
for a Prophet to come to do what? To sweety sweet? To blast this age and
turn them back from their iniquity. Oh God! Send us a fearless prophet, with
Thus Saith the Lord. That the vindicated Word of God will move through it,
and to prove that He’s sent from God. And when he comes he will blast those
ages. Sure will.
 20
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

He will set that Laodicean church against him, Amen. Certainly he will. Then
why’d you do that? Brother Branham said on “What’s the Holy Ghost given
for?” Amen. God’s justice is to blast sin to make those people come against
you, that He might judge them.

How can He judge anybody after the Prophet’s gone? Who can tell who’s the
make believer? How do you know who’s the unbeliever? They’re all in the
message. But He has raised a Five-fold Ministry, with the justice of God, to
blast the message.

But Brother Coleman, you’re wrong, and you’re wrong, because the Prophet
come and that’s all we need. You just said, the Prophet comes at the end in
the age? I sure did. And Malachi 4 blasted Laodicea, but this is another Age.
(Brother Coleman knocks the pulpit, three times – Ed) Eagle time, Bride time!
And the Prophet’s gone, and we’re at the end of that Age, and the seal
opened. The Prophet cannot come back. Who’s going to blast this age?
Some Thunder boys, gonna blast them shuck. Blast that make believer. Blast
those devils out of here. God’s gonna bust them spirits that go around trying
to teach the people in here. “Just hear the Prophet, just read the books.”
Why?..you devil, you’re going out of here.”

You know the Prophet told you except you be like Jesus Christ, you’re lost.
You know that. You mean to tell me that a Ministry has raised up after
twenty years, to come on the scene with the Voice of the Trumpet and blast,
this age. Blast the Message itself. I thought we was all in the rapture in the
message. No, there’ll be a few come out, that will be adopted.

Oh my! Brother Coleman you’re getting kind of strong. Page 47. It might be
closer than you think it is. It's got me scared. Oh, I haven't done enough.
Where are we at? Time shall be no more. He announces that time is over.
What happens? What happens? Could that be so now, brethren? Seriously
think. If it is, then the pyramid is capped by the seven thunders.

You mean to tell me that this pyramid here, if this is the end, is capped by
Seven Thunders. Where is the Seven Thunders at? Over, on the top of
Brother Kindness. Holy Spirit. Seven manifestations. Seven men. Seven
Angels. Seven lamps. Seven manifestations of the Holy Spirit. Seven Virtues
 21
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

is in the Holy Spirit, the Headstone. Does it mean that my brethren? Then the
Pyramid is capped by the Thunders. What are you doing? I’m proving it to
you here. You can’t break this. So then, all things are ready for next week.
Twenty two years ago, and they still don’t believe this.

You remember the pyramid message? It's the Capstone. The Pyramid
message, is the Capstone. What did it do? The Holy Spirit capped off the
individual. Oh! I thought that all I had to do was just live day to day and be in
the message. No, He capped off individual, and sealed it, when we added to
our Faith. Oh! I don’t like that message there. I just like to hear the books and
tapes, and read the books. I don’t like to hear those Ministers preach them
Thunders and things, ‘cause it sounds too hard.

Add to your faith, righteousness, godliness, and faith, and so forth. We kept
adding to it till we got seven things, and the seventh one was Love which is
God. Did you catch what he said? Faith is number one, but then you add
seven more things to it. And the seventh thing to be added to the first thing, is
Love. You mean to Brotherly Kindness, it’s scriptural to add Love? Then the
Seven is eight, and eight is of the seven. Sure, Faith is Love, and Love is
Faith. Oh, that’s a good one there huh? Amen.

That's how He makes the individual. He caps him and seals him with the Holy
Spirit. There could be no individual in this church, that could be capped and
sealed, that will not be my Brother. If I’m capped and sealed, and you’re
capped and sealed, you can’t forgive me? Well, somebody got the wrong
spirit. There’ll be no individualists. It’s one body. When you all flinging around
somewhere, the body’s hurting. Oh my! You mean I can’t do what I want to do?
No. Christ directed service. St. John 5: 19 the Word. I do whatever the Father
show me. Thus Saith the Lord, or keep still. See, too much word now. There’s
too many Ministers, trained to lay the Word out.

He makes an individual He caps and seals him with the Holy Spirit. Then if
that be so, He's got seven church ages that He's had seven mysteries that's
been sounded away. Now watch, page 179 – “The Seven Seal” “Seven Seal
Book” and Brother Branham names the mysteries. Page 179, “The Second
Seal.” He said, the mysteries, Paul, and Ireneaus, and Martin, them man, is
the mysteries, and here’s seven mysteries that’s been sounded away, and
the Prophet reveals what those mysteries was. Amen.
 22
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

He told you in a round about way. But it took your Father in heaven to tell you
what they were Amen. And they now watch. They’ve been sounded away and
they fought for to bring back. Now Brother Roscoe, if you,…. the Angel said, if
you travel and fight in Johannesburg for the Thunders and bring them back to
the people. Then, and now Brother Roscoe the Headstone comes to cap off
the church. You mean we had to fight for ten years to preach the Seven
Thunders to bring it back? From what the Prophet said and fight?

Well Paul had to fight to bring it back, Irenaeus had to fight, what’s so strange.
The Prophet had to fight for three pulls and we had to fight. Oh, I thought you
were mean? No, I’m fighting to bring it back. Oh Glory!

And they fought to bring back. And now the Headstone comes to cap off the
church, does the thunders mean that, my brethren? My! Sirs, is that where we
are at? Oh church, tonight. My I hope we wake up. The Messengers come at
the end of the age. Malachi 4 came at the end of the Seventh, of the
Laodicean age.

A five-fold Ministry comes at the end of the Bride age, and now the
Headstone, comes to connect with the Seven Thunders. So friends, The
Voice of the Trumpet, is the Voice of the Archangel. The judgment hour is
here, it’s adoption time, the Final Voice to the Final Age. A five-fold Ministry is
now ready and trained to blast the Bride Age. Amen.
So therefore, and what will they do?

On, “Name of Jesus.” A Five Fold Ministry will come, Amen. Oh, my! Praise
God! So, amen. ”Name of Jesus” page 44. Now this church is sovereign, it’s
sovereign in itself, we have no bishops, we have no general overseers, we
have Jesus Amen. He’s the Bishop, He’s the general overseer. He’s the head
Pastor, He’s the .. now see this is going to be the Voice of the Archangel. And
you thought it was me. And it’s the Voice of the Archangel, He’s been the
Pastor here all the time. Amen. He’s the Lord, He’s the healer, He’s all in all.

And He set some in the church. What? In the church, in the body. Set some
in there, for what? First Apostles, that’s missionaries. We got one here in the
church now, a little boy sitting back there, a friend of mine, Brother I call him
Creech Jeffreys, that’s the highest call of all. A Missionary. You say, Apostle
 23
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

is a missionary? Absolutely, go look in a dictionary, you’ll find out what

Apostle means. It means one sent. Go look what a missionary means, one
sent. Same thing. The highest order is a missionary who travels the seas for
the Lord. Now first Apostles, this is a scripture, I Corinthians 12: 27.I believe it
is. And it’s somewhere, … the order in the Bible, Apostle first.

And Brother Branham said, “why, the highest order is to preach the Word to
get to the people. Preach the message”. Amen. That’s’ the highest order. So
God put the Apostle in the Body of Christ, and a Prophet, New Testament,
Prophet, not a major Elijah.

So any Prophet in this age, would be secondarily, an Apostle would be first,

because He sets the thing in order. He brings a revelation to the whole entire
world, after the major Prophet left.. Apostle, a Missionary sets the thing in
order. Then any Prophet raise up, Amen. He will be secondarily and thirdly
teachers. Understand your Bible, scriptural. And then whose next? Then
comes miracles, gift of healing, powers in the church. And then you have an
Acts 5, My! Did you catch the sign?

December 11th, judgment struck the church, and God had to pack somebody
off the earth for coming against the Ministry? Quickly a warning went out,
“Adoption Time, next forty days.” Did you catch the sign? You mean that was
Acts 5? Sure was. That’s Acts 5: 1-11. Then what about Acts 5: 12 – 16? The
Signs of the Apostles will be in the church, and then they will know. My!
Where are we at? Voice of the Trumpet, the Voice of the Archangel. My! I see
what you mean.

Now first Apostles, second Prophets. Now what is a Prophet? A Seer, not one
who makes out. Not an Apostle who makes out like He’s a missionary and
stays home. But one who is… who really is a missionary, an Apostle, a
Prophet, a Seer.

Apostles. Prophets, Teachers, Evangelists, Pastors, that’s what the Body

consists of. A local body. Then there’s nine spiritual gifts, and one of them is
wisdom and knowledge, divine healing, and speaking in tongues,
interpretations of tongues. All these different gifts that’s in the Local body. All
these, Apostles, Pastors, Teachers and Evangelists are here… are all here,
to be sure, now watch, what are they here for? To be sure, that in these gifts,
 24

April 1st 1984 PM Service

these things are working right. If they find something false raising up, quickly
they say, “Well you know Brother..” No, he says here, they condemn it.
Quickly, Bang! Just like that.

They condemn it because it’s not according to the scripture. See? It’s a
scriptural war. Oh you … now I’m beginning to understand what you mean, a
scriptural war. They’re going to preach back on the Bible and if anybody in
the message, I don’t care, how much they love the Prophet. If it’s not
scriptural, it’s unscriptural. My! It’s gonna have to take an Adopted son to do
that? Sure, they’ll be adopted. They’re ready for the challenge they’ve been
trained. My! My! They condemn it, because it’s not according to the scripture.
Let somebody walk up here and say, “Bless God, I got oil in my hands, Looky
here. You know I believe I got the Holy Ghost, I got oil in my hands.” You
hear somebody say, “That’s not scriptural.” That’s right, let’s take here and
go, let’s go in a room here, let’s search the scriptures through, show me in the
scripture, where that’s the evidence of the Holy Ghost? And on it goes.

Oh Brother, we’re gonna have a church here. Oh my! Well, one more quote,
so you know what kind of church, it’s gonna be. “Cause a whole lot of people
don’t understand, it you know and so, may God open your understanding up.

“Perseverance” Page 38. Just about the last one I think, I have here, amen,
that’s it, Oh I made it well Praise God. Amen. Page 38, paragraph 240 Now
he set in the church, now here’s 44. To keep the church in line with the Word.
What? Apostles, Prophets, Teachers, Pastors, Evangelists and offices of the
church. God sent, not man called. God sent, inspired men, to keep the church
lined up.

Then you mean to tell me that none of the Brothers can come behind and
check the man out? But the man’s preaching the Word. That’s enough to
check him right there. But maybe you don’t. …..But if you don’t understand,
you don’t believe….. Well then you don’t understand the Word. Cause the
man is A Word ministry. So it’s not that he don’t understand me, you don’t
understand. The man’s already vindicated. So how can you come and say it’s
wrong.

The Seven Thunders vindicated this office in 1974. It’s been vindicated
around the world. Brother Branham said on page 284 in the Seal Book. He
 25
The Gospel Trumpet
Brother Joseph Coleman
April 1st 1984 PM Service

said, now if any man think he has them thunders, its got to come, ‘Thus Saith
the Lord’. You mean to tell me that you took Thus Saith the Lord, to Europe,
and South Africa, and South America? I sure did.

For nine years and God sent the Angel down in December in the Diamond
City to vindicate it. Oh now I see, you really knew what you was talking about
huh? I sure did. Glory! But Brother Coleman, many don’t believe it. I know
that. They’re unbelievers.

Brother Branham said, it’s not for the unbelievers and make believers. For the
believers. Look God put a people in this area here, to believe me. Some are
white, some are black, some are yellow, and some are brown. But they’re
believers. What about the others? Oh they’re only just to press me down, and
make me pray for them that’s all. They’re only to make me get sweeter by the
day. Now, now, now I’m not a whispering Pastor. Brother Joey told me, he
heard it on one of the tapes, Brother Branham said, ‘now we don’t want no
whispering Pastor.’

“Yes Dear”. (Brother Coleman imitates a whispering way – Ed) The Prophet
said. (Whispering- ed) that ain’t me Brother, No, huh, my! Amen. Not man
called, God sent, God inspired men. For what, what you are inspired for? To
keep the church lined up. And they don’t whisper out, “Please Brother Please
get in order” (Brother Coleman speaks in a whisper- ed) No, that ain’t me
Brother. Huh, huh! No Sir, we got deacons and everything else. Now what is
it? Gifts of the Spirit in the church, not a bunch of a fanaticism, but truly gifts
of the Spirit in the church. That’s right. Keeping the church. Now here we’re
talking about. If a real church, was ordained of God, if a Real Church, was
ordained of God. Amen. What would happen? Really filled with the Holy Spirit.

Now here’s the rub, with some people here, they feel that all this rough stuff
shouldn’t be. Hear what the Prophet said. If a real church, that’s ordained of
God, really filled with the Holy Spirit, if sin would appear in the church, it
would another Ananias and Sapphira. If, it appears. Whew! My! When a real
church, I’d like to walk into one, and see all the woman and man, under the
Power of the Holy Spirit. If somebody had done something wrong, the Holy
Spirit rise right up. You mean to tell me the Holy Spirit will rise up and blast it?
 26

you’re in a Laodicea with the books and tapes. You have no vision of a
perfect church, Ephesians. You’re over in Hebrew church. Maybe over in
Corinthia, do what you want to do.

But you’re not in the Ephesians. Ephesians Children shut up and also, obey
your parents. Husbands love your wives, different church. Oh Glory! .Look
where, we’re getting now. If sin would appear in the church there’d be another
Ananias and Sapphira. When a real church, I’d like to walk into one, and see
all the woman and man, under the Power of the Holy Spirit. If somebody had
done something wrong, the Holy Spirit rises right up. and reveal it. You mean
like right here?

I mean, after all we’re all in the message. No. Call it right out. My! Holy Spirit
rises right up and reveal it. They'd have to clean up. That's gifts of the Spirit in
the church. O God, send us a church like that; send us one like that. You
believe it? Christ, is the head. Oh! How many want a church like that. My, My!
Glory.

But now you’re gonna have to. Here’s what you’re gonna face now. This is a
wicked and adulterous generation. homosexuals, perversions, everything, on
the increase by the thousands and thousands. Churches falling away, "Heady,
high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God, truce-breakers,
false accusers, incontinent, despisers of those that are good, having a form of
godliness," as the Spirit said, and now watch what they deny. Denying the
power thereof. Denying the power in this church saying that it ain’t nothing.
Denying the revelation saying that it ain’t nothing. And what’s the Word say
here, from such turn away." The Bible said, "Turn away." We're living in that
day.

My! Now, if you couldn't take my word, you'd just have to go, or I couldn't take
your word, your word against my word. Fine, Amen.. But God's not that way.
He sends gifts into the church, apostles. What is an apostle? A missionary. A
missionary, is a word "missionary" means "one that's sent." ‘Apostle' means
"one that's sent." A prophet, ‘a seer’. A pastor, a teacher, evangelist, all those
things, they rightly divide the Word of God. Who does? The laity? No, the
Apostles and Prophets and Pastors, Evangelists and Teachers, they rightly

divide your books and your tapes. Well really Brother Coleman, I ain’t got
anything to say against you, no, that’s what I’m trying to tell you.

The only thing you can say, if you catch me drinking, smoking, and some
woman, and stealing, then, that’s different. But as long as I’m living a life in
front of you, and I’m preaching this Word here, scripture, you got nothing to
say. Not one thing can you say. You got nothing to say. The way I say it, how
I say it, when I feel like saying it, if I call anything personal, that’s my business,
that’s for God’s business. You don’t have nothing to do with that at all. You
have nothing to do with that. It’s none of your business. I’ll tell you another
thing. If you come in here, you don’t belong to God, I mean, the Holy Spirit,
He ain’t gonna bother you. If you do something wrong, He’ll call you out. But if
you’re God’s child, then He will reveal sin in your life, and clean it up. Cause
it’s sweeter than honey. Only if you’re God’s child. If you ain’t God’s child He
ain’t gonna bother you. Oh My! Do you love the Lord? Oh glory! My, my!

Oh, we’re here. Revelation 19, Bride makes herself ready. Hear what the
Prophet said about it, page 566. “Revelation Four” Paragraph 91. Blessed are
they which are called to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
And so there’s going to be a meeting in the air, one of these days, in the
sweet sweet by and by. Just stay ready, keep yourself ready. Purge your
heart from all evil thinking. Have Faith in God, no mater how dark it looks and
how many laughs and makes fun. And say, you made a mistake, keep right
on living Holy and living for God, just keep moving on. The hour will arrive
when the Voice of the Trumpet will speak out. Oh Praise God.

Friends, the Gospel Trumpet is now ready to declare scriptural war by the
Voice of the Trumpet in the Five Fold Ministry. May the Lord richly bless you.
Oh Praise God. So here we are with “The Communion” tape. Amen. You may
be seated. So now we come, now I want to tell you something. If some of you
fall into sin, or something like this here. Don’t take this Lord’s Supper. Don’t
take this lightly. If something happened, don’t you come up here. And your
children, you know what they’re doing, whatever, you come and see a
deacon and you tell him about it, and tell me, and they’re ain’t gonna come
back here until another month, until we check their lives out.

And if you have, if you’re not part of this church here, you just came here
today for the first time, do not take this Lord’s Supper until you speak to me. I

don’t know who you are, or where you come from. ‘Cause there’s a spirit
down in Guyana and Trinidad, and different places against the seven
thunders. So if you are here, from a Pastor from there, therefore you are
against, what I’m preaching here.

If you come out of there I got to check you out. Amen. So hope it’s clear,
another season is here, and you listen to what this Prophet said.

And then you hear him say his own self, what he feels amen, about what’s
fixing to happen. He says, the hour will soon arise. He says, God has give us
a message, it’s ordained of God, it’s proven of God, just to paraphrase it. It’s
given of God, He said, but the hour will soon….. the hour will soon arise when
God, is gonna dwell among his people, it will be like it was with Ananias and
Sapphira.

Did you hear what I said? I mean do you really understand what I’m hollering
about. I don’t hate nobody in here. I just don’t want nobody to have to be over
in Acts 5. That’s all. So I’m screaming and I’m tried, and I’m weary and I’m
about gone. Can hardly make it. I just don’t want you to hit that season and
walk in here. I ain’t got no more to say. Because I have to be bound to St.
John 5: 19. ‘Thus Saith the Lord,’ or keep still. Not bothering with your person,
I got nothing to do with that.

But if there’s sin in here, that’s when I’ll turn. He’ll turn me and speak, or
whatever. So there’s no person that can bind this ministry from speaking
against sin. No. You see, cause see, we’ve been here too long. We’re not
bothering anybody. So nobody can come in this church, and tell us what
we’re supposed to do. Whether you like it or whether you don’t like it. Brother
we was here. God put us here. Oh Praise God!

So friends I love you, may God bless you, and you hear what the Prophet
said about Communion and what it means and so forth, and you do that, and
clean your lives up. And everything is ready. The Voice of the Trumpet you
know what it is? The Voice of the Archangel.. And you know the Gospel
Trumpet, will declare a scriptural war. And I’m telling you, now, don’t say I
didn’t tell you. It’s on the tape here. You were told, when these things begin to
pop. He gave you a sign December 11th, “Warning, then Judgment.” Even
sent Sister Brunhilda, to this person here, to warn them to come back, they
 29

wouldn’t come. God took them off the earth. This person came against me,
over personal matters here, last year, and so forth.

And even would holler at me on the telephone – I tried to… I raised my voice,
I know God will strike him dead, or something he didn’t believe it and God
packed him away. This is about… this is about the third or fourth time since
I’ve been here.

Others have died also the same way, but they don’t believe it. I mean I don’t
want to see that. Look, do you know what Ananias and Sapphira is? God
waited almost six thousand years to have a Bride in a condition like Eden.

Now think what I’m saying now, I’m finished. He loves this Bride so much,
and he sent a Prophet, with a perfect message, perfect Word, to wash and
ordain that Bride. Then He raised a Five-fold Ministry up. And Brother,
(Brother Hunte knows the Brother). Brother Bob, way back. And Brother
Branham met Brother Bob, at Brother Pat Tyler’s place up in Sky bridge,
Kentucky. And Brother Bob was fasting up there, and he asked Brother
Branham a question. And Brother Branham was squirrel hunting, and Bob
was fasting up, at Pat Tyler’s place.

Brother Branham happen to come up there, but we found later, that God sent
Brother Bob, sent Brother Branham up there to meet Brother Bob. And spoke
with him, “Brother Bob, said, Brother Branham is there a rapture?” And
Brother Branham discerned, knew that he had come out of Son ship
and ….??. ... He said, “Thus Saith the Lord, there will be a rapture.” So then
he says, Well Brother Branham, what will the five minist…. Five-fold Ministry
do? “Oh Brother Bob” he says, “The Five Fold Ministry, will put the finishing
touches to the Bride, in the end.” Brother Hunte is that correct? So I know
what I’m doing, Brother Sister.

I’m ordained to put the finishing touches to the Bride in the end. I’m the one
that knows if your stockings are baggy around the ankles. I’m the one that
knows if your slip is hanging. So don’t get mad at me, ‘cause I tell you, your
stockings are baggy. I’m ordained to tell you. If your hair do’s not right, and
He doesn’t like it, I’ll tell you change your hair do. Praise God!

I know it.. ….Glory! , He died upon the cross.

…. it was the blood for me.

Oh my, Lord we just love you Father. Praise God, you love the Lord? You
understand this morning. Look at our Brother Mikey. The demonstration of the
Gospel and the signs following. I had no more quotes to read, that’s the
message there. My! The Lord just came backed me while I was singing. He
said, you ain’t finished what you said.

The Lord loves His Bride so much. He don’t want to do it now. Get this in your
mind, see, the judgment is sweeter than honey. God does not want to kill
anybody. But this is the end, and He has make believers shuck in this
message. And they have no revelation of what you’re talking about.
Perfection. See the whole thing that they don’t understand me, I’m preaching
perfection. And they don’t understand it, they’re in the message but they have
no revelation of Perfection. Therefore, they don’t understand me.

So, I know that, I’ve been doing that since 1962. I can’t help that. See? He
don’t want to do that, but He loves you so much, He is going to have a perfect
Bride, because they are waiting on it. Somebody must come to perfection. So
if I said if, He has to pack out Ananias, and Sapphira, and call out sin, He will
do it, so that He can unite with His Bride, because, He’s longing to see you..

That’s the only reason why you will have Ananias and Sapphira. There’ll be
somebody, heady high-minded, getting in the way of God, or lying or doing
something. So we’re not here looking for Ananias and Sapphira, we’re looking
for perfection.

Do you finally understand now? So you won’t come in here, and fear, and
making a mistake. No, we make plenty of mistakes everyday. Amen, see?
There’s a Blood Atonement. But one day, when Charity drops and veils in
with the Pillar of Fire, that will be Perfection. Oh my! You may be seated.

The Lord richly bless you., You pray for me, I can make my final message
next Sunday. We’re having fasting and praying. Now don’t get all uptight and
worried, we’re just… we’re just open here. If you can’t make it, don’t feel like
you got to force yourself, whatever. Maybe the husband will come or
whatever, or however you want to do it. May be the wife, may go one time. I

don’t know. … Get together, however you do it. Amen. But it’s here. For it’s
fasting and praying. Let the Lord lead you, and we’ll try to have you out by
9.30.

Some of you, I trust you’ll receive the Holy Ghost, or whatever, I don’t know,
and brothers will come by here about fifteen minutes, and bring exhortation
and send you home. Then I feel, it’ll be a nice atmosphere to finish it off. And
God has blessed us, has been wonderful to us. Amen.

Wednesday night I’m not sure exactly what I’m gonna do, we’ll see, I’m
watching something. Amen, So therefore the Lord bless you, pray for me, that
I’ll get what I’m looking for. I’m looking for strength, and a healing. I have to
go to Eur… I get three days between Easter and Belgium.

It’s really I don’t look forward to, but I do, ‘cause … you know. So therefore,
but it’s got to be, so what can I do. So I covet your prayers. I’m looking for the
mightiest meeting, Easter yet. Amen, and God’s servant Brother Roscoe will
be here with us, at Palm Sunday. And this whole thing will be finished. The
Communion everything is in order. The Deacons and elders, everything is
ready for Penn Harris. All things are ready. If I can find a group somewhere,
on this earth. Somewhere, there’s got to be a people somewhere in this earth,
that I can bring the Word to, and get them people ready. Now it won’t be
‘cause what they’re doing now.

It will be my Grace to ‘em. So don’t think you’re doing something. No, it won’t
be because you’re fasted and prayed, it’ll because of God’s grace to us.

Now we know that we ain’t nothing right? We fail him everyday. We are
miserable, wretched and miserable, but oh God, the Grace of God. Oh! Amen.
Hear “The Communion” from the Prophet. Amen. Lord Bless you richly.
