“Brother Branham, some say mercy is over and no one can be saved. Now, is this true? (I'm glad I got this one.) We watch and pray--we watch the prayer lines, and it seems some are still finding mercy. Now, that's the first question, you got two. "Is mercy over?" Don't never think that. See? Just keep right on doing everything you can until you're taken away. See? "We notice in the prayer line some's finds mercy." Sure. Mercy's--the doors are open. See? I think where you got this--this thought might lay between... See, I don't have time to give each one of these Scriptures their right place (You see?), each one of these things their right place. They... In the prayer line you find mercy, certainly. If I knowed Jesus was coming this afternoon, I'd be doing just the thing I'm doing right now (See?), just continuing right on. Mercy is always open. See?” [Questions And Answers 3, Jeff. IN 64-0830M]

“And now, where I think you get it, is about the finishing of the Seven Church Ages and the Seven Seals being loosed. See? The Seven Seals, it's manifested what takes place has--what has took place. The seventh church age, we're at the end of the seventh church age. When I say the end, that doesn't mean it's this very hour, this very minute. You remember, the Bible said, back in the times of--of the Lord Jesus, Paul said, "For the time is at hand." Do you realize how long that was in God's time? That was yesterday. My time, it's been two thousand years. See? The time is at hand. See? What God calls at hand is not what we call at hand. See? So just keep on believing, keep on praying, keep on... God's still got mercy open; just keep flowing into it as fast as you can. God will do the stopping when it's time to stop. See?” [Questions And Answers 3, Jeff. IN 64-0830M]

QUESTION:

What is one single final sign before the Rapture?

ANSWER:

“When God gets ready to do something, He always has a witness of it. I'm so glad today that we can look around before the coming of the Lord and see the witnesses of His appearing, seeing the signs in the church of the near approaching of the Lord Jesus Christ, seeing it word by word fulfilled. Even the last sign that was to be given to the Church before the appearing of the Lord Jesus, it's working in the Church right now. The last thing... Remember, He said, "As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man." Look what the sinners was doing in Sodom. Look what the Angel of the Lord did when He come down to bear record of it. Watch what the three angels did, all three of them. Look at the world today in its sin. Look at the church today in its condition like Lot. Look at the called-out church having a struggle like Abraham was. The man or woman today that tries to live for God has a struggle to keep on going. You have to press into the Kingdom of God.” [Hear Ye Him, Klamath Falls, OR, 60-0712]

“We which are alive and remain to the coming of the Lord shall not prevent them which are asleep, for the trumpet shall sound and the dead in Christ shall rise. We will be changed in a moment, in a twinkling of an eye and be caught up to together to meet the Lord in the air, and forever be with the Lord, that great Son that's coming. See Him getting His church ready? What's He doing? He's showing them His last sign. The next thing is what? The rapture, the rapture. The Son appears and we're changed. We can't go to get Him in the air. He's too high for us. But we'll be changed like Abraham, father, was in a moment in a twinkling of an eye and be caught up together to meet Him in the air.” [Jehovah Jireh, Tulare, CA, 61-0226]

“And that Angel, not an Angel, God in human flesh with His back turned to the tent (The Bible distinctly says, He had His back to the tent behind Him.) said, "Why did Sarah laugh within herself, saying, 'Surely these things can't come to pass.'?" How did He know she was in the tent? Or how did He know whether her name was Sarah? How did He know that she laughed? And how did He know the thoughts that was in her mind, when she thought in her mind? It was that same Spirit that was on Jesus that perceived their thoughts. See? And He said, "As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man." That right? The last sign they ever got before the fire fell... It fell right away. That was the last sign they got. And look. How did He say that, and why did He distinctly call Sodom? Here it is. Open up now and receive it. That was Abraham and this is Abraham's seed. He has to give the seed the same thing He give Abraham. For the promise was to both Abraham and seed after him.” [Jehovah Jireh, Richmond.VA, 61-0312]

“Now, what are you trying to say, Brother Branham?" Listen close. We cannot in these kind of bodies, ever receive the promised Son, for He's not coming to the earth. We are to be caught up. Our bodies are to be changed in a moment, in a twinkling of an eye, and we're to be caught up to meet Him in the air. And the last sign was give before the destruction, was that the Angel, showing that God would be dwelling in mortal, human flesh, performing that same sign before our bodies was changed. And that's the last sign the church gets. Show me one thing more that God did to Abraham! Show me one more sign He give him than that sign there. That was the last sign. All that knows, that's Bible readers, say, "Amen." That's the last sign was given. This is the last sign. Church, hear me, in the name of the Lord.” [Abraham's Covenant Confirmed, Middletown, OH, 61-0318]

“And remember, the last sign that was given to Abraham, which was a type of those who will go in the Rapture. See? They was already out of Sodom. The last sign that was given to him was that very sign: God manifested in human flesh, that told Abraham what Sarah was thinking, in the tent behind Him. And Jesus turns right back around and says, "As it was in the days of Lot, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man.” [Be Not Afraid, Tucson, AZ 63-0607]

“I presume that you people are spiritual. Please try to understand. See? This may be your last opportunity. See? Maybe you wasn't taught this in your churches, your big fine churches. Those men, nothing against your pastor now. [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] "... not afraid. It's I. Be not afraid.” [Be Not Afraid, Tucson, AZ 63-0607]
