<TITLE>31. Par -</TITLE>L-43-5 Let's turn over to Revelation 6.
And I saw when the Lamb had opened one of the seals, and I heard, as it was the noise of a thunder, and one of the four beasts said, Come and see.
Now, there never was another thunder; and the last seal was opened, there was space in heaven for a half hour of silence. But the first seal was opened, there was a blast of thunder.
Oh, church, could it be? Are we that far? Friends, think. Maybe... I hope it isn't, but what if it is? What was that blast? Before God and this open Bible, I lie not. Blast that shook the earth, and when the first seal of the seven that was opened in the Bible, it come forth, just one, but a blast that shook the whole thing: a thunder. And then, if the seals that's on the backside would open, would not it be a thunder too? I don't know. I can't say.
There was a thunder. The first seal... And the seal was a thunder, the trumpet was opened at that time, and the trumpet was blown at Pentecost, of course. I won't get into that.

L-44-1 Now, if the vision was Scriptural, the vision I'm speaking of, that I saw last Saturday morning as a week ago now. If, now remember here. If the vision was Scriptural, it must be interpreted by the Scripture, or a continuation of the same Scripture. I just waited so that soaks in. If this that I have seen... What it was, I do not know, but I'm scared to death. Are we wasted away? Are we at the end? Remember, this angel said when this taken place, He swore there'd be time no more. I wonder if we really get this?
You say, "Well look like it'd be blasting across... Brother, He comes in a minute when you think not. You'll hear it your last time.

L-44-3 Now, is it plain? When the first seal was opened, the seals that was inside the Book, these mysteries that was sounded forth: justification, sanctification, Roman Catholic church, Protestants, and when all their little battles and things left these loose ends in the Word of God, the seventh angel comes on and gathers them all up and explains them. See? And then he finishes; seven thunders utter out. John started to write. He said, "Don't write it, but seal it." And the first seal was opened of the seals on the inside of the Book; it opened with a thunder.
If this is Scripture, it can only be... If any Scripture is... Anything that's supposed to be of the Bible... It's just like you can't tell me there's such a thing as a purgatory and things like that. There's no Scripture in the Bible to back it up.

L-44-5 You can't tell me of these things like the Book of the Maccabees, which would might be all right, and that fourth Book of Daniel, where an angel grabbed him by the hair of the head and said--set him down. There's no such stuff as that ever took place in the Bible. Where Jesus of Nazareth made a little clay bird, and put legs on it, and said, "Fly away little birdie." It's nonsense. There's nothing in the Bible to back that up.
So it don't fool... The--the translators... God seen that the translators wouldn't even add that dogmas and nonsense. It might been good people, the Maccabee brothers of the... I don't say they wasn't good people, but it wasn't Scriptural. This is the complete revelation of Jesus Christ. Nothing could be added to It or taken from It. And if we put that in there, it don't act with the rest of the Scripture. There's sixty-six books of this Bible, and not one word will contradict the other one.

L-45-1 And then if this is a continuation for the sounding of these last trumpets or these last seven thunders that's coming forth, the mysteries, the last seals, it will have to compete--or compare with the rest the Scripture. And if them first ones in there opened with a blast of thunder, the second ones will too, that's on the backside.
Watch what happens. If the vision was Scripture, then it must be interpreted by the Scripture, or a continuation of the same Scripture.
