THE RESURRECTIONS
THE SCRIPTURES SPEAK OF THREE KINDS OF RESURRECTIONS.
NATIONAL
"The hand of
the LORD was upon me, and He brought me out by the Spirit of the LORD
and set me down in the middle of the valley; and it was full of bones.
“CAN THESE BONES
LIVE AGAIN”
For this we say
unto you by the word of the Lord,
that we which are
alive [and] remain unto the coming of the Lord
shall not prevent
them which are asleep.
For the Lord
himself shall descend from heaven with a shout,
with the voice of
the archangel,
and the dead in
Christ shall rise first:
shall be caught up
together with them in the clouds,
to meet the Lord in
the air: and so shall we ever be with the Lord.
MATERIAL
In the
sweat of thy face shalt thou eat bread, But
go thou thy way till the end [be]: for thou shalt rest,
till thou
return unto the ground; and
stand in thy lot at the end of the days.
for out of
it wast thou taken:
for dust
thou [art],
and unto
dust shalt thou return.
HOSEA CHAPTER 6: 1-2
1
Come, and let us return unto the LORD: for he hath torn, and he will
heal us; he hath smitten, and he will bind us up. 2 After two days
will he revive us: in the third day he will raise us up, and we shall live
in his sight.

LIFE.STORY.title TOLEDO.OH 51-0722A
You know that's one of the greatest signs we have today of the coming of the Lord, is see those--those Jews returning from across the world. It's a wonderful. I used to sing a little song about nations are breaking, Israel awaking, the sings that the Bible foretold. Something about the fig tree budding and so forth.
My, I was talking with an infidel not long ago; it's been about five, four or five years ago, he said, "Looky here, preacher, I can prove by the Bible and by Jesus Christ's Word, that you call Him, that He told something was wrong."
I said, "Oh, no."
He said, "Yes, He did," said, "I can prove it in the Bible." He said, "He said, over there in Matthew 24, He said, 'All these things,' said, 'when they come to pass, why then, they--that generation would not pass until they had seen all things fulfilled.'"
I said, "That's just what He
meant."
He said, "Well, that generation's been dead long ago, long ago."
I said, "No, not that generation, but the generation that sees the fig tree putting forth buds, that's the generation that's not going until... He said, 'When this generation,' the generation He was speaking of, not speaking to, speaking of. And when that generation sees this, will not pass until all things be fulfilled."

RECOGNIZING.YOUR.DAY.title JEFF.IN V-5 N-1 64-0726M
As Israel was blinded, so that the Gentiles could come in, now the Gentiles are blinded so the Bride can be taken out and Israel can receive their feast of trumpets. Just perfectly.
"After two days He will revive us (or give us a revival), bringing us together (the Jews speaking on these trumpets now). And He shall--and we shall live in His sight (or have Eternal Life. See?). We'll be in His sight." The Bible said here in Hosea, said, "And we shall live in His sight--like--have Life in His sight (That's His own Life, Eternal Life), have Life in His sight." She that lives in pleasure's dead while she's alive. So we promise that Israel again would have Life in His sight. She's been dead to the facts and to the Pentecostal feast.
Notice carefully. Then after
two days... Now, that didn't mean two twenty-four hour days, 'cause it's
been--that happened way back yonder many hundreds of years ago. See? It meant
two days with the Lord--after two thousand years. Now, you know
how long it's been since that time? It's been twenty-seven hundred years since
that, 'cause in Hosea here it's B.C. 780--1964. See, it's been something over
twenty-seven hundred years ago. He said, "After
two days, in the third day He will revive us again and give us Life in His
sight." There's your Trumpets coming in. That's the hour
that we're living, the day that we're living.
II PETER 3:8
8 ¶ But, beloved, be not ignorant of this one thing, that one day [is] with the Lord as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day.

Now, resurrection is not replacement.
Resurrection is bringing the same thing up that went down.
If I should drop the Bible from the--the stand on the floor,
and catch some--another Bible and replace it, that's replacement.
But resurrection is bring the same Bible up that
went down.
And that's what resurrection means:
to be--to be raised up.
“Notice carefully. Then after two days... Now, that didn't mean two twenty-four hour days, 'cause it's been--that happened way back yonder many hundreds of years ago. See? It meant two days with the Lord--after two thousand years.”

SEVENTY.WEEKS.OF.DANIEL.title JEFF.IN DA 89-141 61-0806
Notice. The Jews are in their homeland and been going back... If you get the "Decline Of the World's War," Volume 2, when General Allenby, after the First World War, flew over Jerusalem and captured it and took Jerusalem, and those Christian men marched in Jerusalem with their hats off; and Allenby surrendered without even firing a gun--or--or they surrendered to Allenby, the Turks. And since then God went to hardening Mussolini's heart, Hitler's heart, Stalin's heart, hearts of the men all over the country hating that Jew.
And then the great big birds that went down, called the Eastern
Airlines, or the Pan American Airlines, or whatever it was... I believe it was
called TWA. Was in the--the magazine, the "Life" magazine, I believe
it was--"Look" or "Life"; I believe it was
"Life," just the last three or four years. And God's
been running the Jews back in their homeland, which they've been away for two
thousand years while the Gentiles was making ready. And now, the Gentiles has
turned Christ on the outside of the church according to Revelations the 3rd
chapter. He can't even get back in His church. There's no place for Him to go.
He is rejected. And it's time for the rapture.

And the world don't understand, because it's a "bunch of nonsense." Because they're not Methodist, the Methodist don't understand It. Because this... They--they ain't the Baptist; the Baptist don't understand It. Because it's not Catholic, the Catholic don't understand It. Because it's not Pentecostal, the Pentecostal don't understand It.
But those
who wait upon the Lord, those who are looking,
not one man that we
have history of any observatory, knowing that Star that passed over. But the
wise men followed It for hundreds of miles; for two years they watched It and
followed It. See what I mean? It's to those who are
listening to the sympathy.
Remember, the Composer knows the end from the beginning. He knows all about it, that's the reason He could write it here. Correctly. Now, you must begin with Him; you must begin. If you want to hear a sympathy, you begin with Him like in the music at the sympathy. You listen, you know what it says; it's going to be what the symphony is, then you begin to listen at the music. And you know what it is, so you know just about,
"Here's
where certain--certain things take place;
now it's
got to change."
Now, to anybody else that don't know nothing about what they're--just walked in and set down, it's just a bunch of nonsense, rattling noise. But the one who knows what it is, it's beat out with the music, drummed out with the notes; it's--it's trumpeted with the trumpets; it's strung on the harp; it's played with the violin, It's--it's beat on the bass; it's sounded by the trumpets; it's beat on the drums. The whole thing together in rhythm, and it makes the--the drama
till you
can close your eyes and live in it. Hallelujah.
Man could close his mortal eyes to earthly sight and live in the Presence of Jesus Christ, when you see His Word being beat out in the great sympathy that we're living in now, changing.

"Just continue on as you are (See?), but there's One
in your midst that you don't know." He knowed that the hour of
his message, he knowed he was to introduce that Person. He knowed He was
there. "One in your midst; you don't see Him. Things
are going on you know nothing about." And so then...
"There's--there's something going to happen," he says, you see, "and He will be here and I'll know Him."
John knew he
would see Him, because he was going to introduce Him.
And we realize that
in the Scriptures over in Malachi 4, there's to be a one like John,
a--an Elijah, to
whom the Word of God can come to,
and he is to reveal
by the Holy Spirit
all the mysteries
of God and restore the faith of the children
back to the faith
of the apostolic fathers:

See, because the world will go right on. They'll never even know it's happened.
When the doors of mercy's closed,
preachers will be preaching salvation, be (See?), causing people to repent,
going right on just like it always did. It did in other ages and it
did in--it will in this age. And the rapture will be so sudden
and so quick that the world will never even miss them, that they're gone.

slips Her away. It'll be gone; they know nothing about it.

But that's
where I pattern the resurrection and--or the rapture.
It'll go and they'll... I know that sounds strange, but maybe you'll know a
little more after tonight, if the Lord willing, just how it's going to be. See? It'll be so secret nobody will know about it,
hardly. The world will just think--just go right on like it always did. See?
That's the way He always does it.

Notice, two hundred thousand demons turned loose upon those Jews, when
they burned them, they crucified them; they put bubbles in
their veins; they killed them till they had no more gas to kill them
with; and they shot them till they had no more bullets to shoot with;
and they--and they done everything they could do. They cremated their
bodies and everything, and hung them on fences, children and all,

Because
they were Jews,
they were done that way.

He only dealt with them until they rejected Christ.

PROPHECY OF A NATIONAL RESURRECTION.
EZEKIEL 37:11
11
Then he said unto me, Son of man, these bones are the whole
house of Israel: behold, they say, Our bones are dried, and our hope is
lost: we are cut off for our parts.
12
Therefore prophesy and say unto them, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Behold, O
my people, I will open your graves, and cause you to come up out of your
graves, and bring you into the land of Israel.
13
And ye shall know that I [am] the LORD, when I have opened your graves,
O my people, and brought you up out of your graves,
14
And shall put my spirit in you, and ye shall live, and I shall place you
in your own land: then shall ye know that I the LORD have spoken [it], and
performed [it], saith the LORD.
THIS IS A
NATIONAL, NOT A PHYSICAL RESURRECTION OF DEAD BODIES.
THIS IS A CRY OF A NATION:
Our
bones are dried, and our hope is lost: we are cut off for our parts.

1125-Q-370 164 370. Brother Branham,
when you gave the message on the seventy church weeks--seventy weeks (Pardon
me.) of Daniel, I believe that you mentioned that the full--the full last week
or last seven years will begin when the Bride was taken in the rapture.
No, no, no, no, no, nah, nah, nah. You got that wrong (See?),
not the full seven weeks. The--the week started when Jesus came on earth. He said, "The Messiah, Prince,
shall come and prophesy,
and in the midst of the seven weeks, He'll be cut off." And Jesus preached exactly three and one half years,
which is half of the seventy weeks, the seven days, week--weekdays. See? And
there's three and one half years left.
Now, when Moses and Elijah comes on earth, which is Revelations and
Zechariah... (Brother Coomer your--your and Sister Coomer's question there
was--was in the same.) Now, when they... When Zechariah 4 and Revelations 11,
them two olive trees and so forth--which is Moses
and Elijah--when they come on earth they prophesy 1,264 days. What is
it? Exactly three and one half years. There's

homeland and becomes a nation, that generation would see the coming of the
