Theme: Isaiah 45. 19-25 "Not in secret have I spoken, not in a dark corner" and "The entire ministry of our LORD was and is placed in His church"

Brother Frank begins by welcoming the congregation and sharing greetings from brethren abroad, particularly from Korea, where his preaching had a profound impact. He reflects on past Easter gatherings in Krefeld, noting the spiritual blessings and the dual nature of the times—glorious for those destined for glory but challenging as they navigate through trials. He emphasizes the longing for heavenly glory and the importance of having a spiritual home, cautioning against complacency. Brother Frank recounts a moving experience in Israel, where the singing of 'Glory, Glory, Hallelujah' symbolized the nation's independence and connected it to the opening of the seven seals. He stresses that God's promise to Israel requires their active participation in cultivating the land, drawing a parallel to the church's need to actively sow the seed of God's word. He references Isaiah, urging listeners to prepare new ground for the seed rather than sowing among thorns. Brother Frank expresses gratitude for God's calling and reflects on personal experiences, including a moment of self-judgment and peace during a journey through Switzerland. He quotes Isaiah 45, emphasizing that God speaks openly and calls all nations to turn to Him for salvation. He discusses the revelation of God in Christ and the importance of understanding Christ's revelation in His church. He cautions against internal rebellion towards God's word and stresses the need to accept the messages of the prophets as the word of God. Brother Frank criticizes interpretations that overshadow the clear word of God, advocating for a return to the unadulterated truth revealed by the Holy Spirit. He references the sermon 'The State of the Church,' urging listeners to heed the Spirit's message and recognize the church as the pillar and ground of truth. He emphasizes the balance between relying on spiritual gifts and having the word, warning against a mere outward show of godliness. Brother Frank addresses the issue of rumors and division within the church, calling for unity and mutual support. He references 2 Chronicles 20:20, stressing the importance of trusting in God and His prophets. He recounts the angel's message to Brother Branham about the power of belief and the need for the church to be closely connected to God. He uses the example of Moses to illustrate how God defends those He sends, even when others disagree. Brother Frank references Judges 13 and 14, discussing Samson's story and the need to trust God's plan, even when it seems contradictory. He emphasizes that in the moment where each person has found his place, the purpose of God is fulfilled. He speaks against exerting human authority within the church, advocating for divine authority in the community of God. He references Isaiah and Brother Branham's teachings on the key on Christ's shoulder, symbolizing the authority of the church as the body of Christ. He shares an anecdote about an American preacher claiming absolute authority as a pastor, contrasting it with the biblical model of shepherding. Brother Frank expresses his anticipation for a spotless church, fully submitted to God, and shares his belief that all promised blessings will be fulfilled. He references Ephesians 3, highlighting the mystery of Christ in us, the hope of glory, and the need for this to be a living reality. He concludes by urging listeners to open their hearts to God, offering a call to those seeking assurance of their salvation and inviting those with prayer requests to lift their hands. He leads a closing prayer, asking for God's revelation, confirmation of His word, and the fulfillment of His promises.
