CONFIRMED BY SCRIPTURE

Since the beginning of the seventies, the sermons of Brother Branham were not only sent out from Jeffersonville, USA, but also under the leadership of Don Bablitz from Edmonton, Canada. It was in July 1975, when I was visiting there, that he came to me, telling me about all the countries that were being served. He was simply overwhelmed that the message was spread all over the world through my ministry. Suddenly he said, “Brother Frank, we see Brother Branham's ministry in the Bible. What about your ministry? Is it also found in the Bible?” I had never thought about it before and replied quite harshly, “Stop it! Don't talk like that! How can my ministry be in the Bible?”

Very early the next morning I had just reached over to take my Bible to read, when suddenly the same voice of the LORD said, “MY SERVANT, I HAVE ORDAINED YOU ACCORDING TO MATTHEW 24: 45 TO GIVE OUT THE FOOD IN DUE SEASON.’’ I was shocked. Up to this moment Mt. 24 for me was the chapter wherein the LORD speaks about the end-time, about wars, earthquakes, about false prophets and false christs, about Israel in the symbol of the fig tree, which has come back to life again. But now I was deeply touched as my eyes fell directly upon the verses 45-47, which I read, “Who, then, is a faithful and wise servant, whom his Lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them food in due season? -Blessed is that servant, whom his Lord, when he cometh, shall find so doing. Verily I say unto you that he shall make him ruler over all his goods.” (Mt. 24: 45-47). This was a scriptural revelation and a direct confirmation, for if this final ministry would not be based upon a promise, then it would not have a significance in the end-time plan of Salvation, would not have any legitimisation, not even the divine right to exist.

When we continue reading in Mt. 25, we notice that the concern is the coming of the Bridegroom. But before the return of the Bridegroom, the original teachings in their entirety must be proclaimed without compromise. After all things were restored through the prophetic ministry, they must now be shared through the teaching ministry with all the servants of the household of the LORD. That is according to the THUS SAITH THE LORD in His Word. The divine order must be fully established in the end-time. All who now listen to what the Spirit says unto the churches will hear the revealed Word. And all who receive it will prove it by faith and obedience. Only then do they have the access to the very Holiest of Holies and will partake of the riches prepared for them. They eat the fresh Mannah and live by the revealed Word promised for this time. The LORD predicted the spiritual famine in Am. 8: 11. HE therefore watched over His Own Word to fulfill it, so His Own would partake of His promised food, whereby they live spiritually.
