WHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED
THE BOOK OF REVELATION TO JOHN?
Dr. William Soto Santiago
Thursday, May 13, 1999 (Second service)
Las Choapas, Mexico

some moments of fellowship with you around the Word of
God and His Program pertaining to this end time.
I want to read in the Book of Revelation, in chapter 22,
verse 16, where Jesus Himself speaks and says:
“I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these
things in the churches. I am the root and the offspring of
David, and the bright and morning star.”
Our subject on this occasion is: “WHERE IS THE
ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED THE MYSTERY TO
JOHN?” in other words, the Angel that revealed to John the
Book of Revelation. So, it would be: “THE ANGEL THAT
REVEALED TO JOHN THE BOOK OF REVELATION,” or,
“THE APOCALYPTIC REVELATION FROM JESUS.”
Let’s also read here in chapter 1, at the beginning:
“The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto
him, to shew unto his servants things which must shortly come
to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his
servant John:
Who bare record of the word of God, and of the
testimony of Jesus Christ, and of all things that he saw.4 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words
of this prophecy, and keep those things which are written
therein: for the time is at hand.”
“WHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT
REVEALED THE BOOK OF REVELATION TO
JOHN?” That is a good question for today.
In order to understand this mystery of where the Angel
of the Lord Jesus Christ that revealed the Book of Revelation
to John is, let’s see what Rev. William Branham said about
that Angel, and then we will see where that Angel of the Lord
Jesus Christ is at this end time. It says on page 16 of the
message “The Revelation Of Jesus Christ,” in paragraphs 108
to 110, it says:
“And it was sent to the… ‘And signified this,’” (He
signified this, meaning, He declared this), “‘by his angel unto
John.’ We do not know who the angel was. The Bible doesn’t
say who the angel was. But we know that it was a prophet,”
(meaning, that Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ is a prophet),
“’cause the Bible later said, that, ‘I Jesus have sent my angel
to testify these things which must shortly come to pass.’
Then we find out that when John started to worship the
angel, the angel said, ‘See that you do it not.’ Revelation 22,”
(that is, the Book of Revelation 22), “I believe it is. And he
said, ‘For I am of thy fellowservants and of the prophets.’ It
might have been Elijah. It might have been one of the
prophets. John was an apostle. But this prophet was sent.
And John, being an apostle, look at the nature of the rest
of his epistles, prove that it wasn’t John wrote it…”
In other words, John’s writing style was different from
the style in which the Book of Revelation was written. That
proves that it was not something that came from John, rather, it
came from another person, who revealed all this apocalyptic
revelation to John, and John wrote it according to how it was
revealed to him by the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ; in other
words, it was not written in John’s writing style, but in theWHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED... 5
writing style of the Angel of Jesus Christ.
It continues:
“...Look at the nature of the rest of his epistles, prove
that it wasn’t John wrote it, because it has no nature like
John,” (meaning, it has no nature like John, like John’s writing
style). “Take First John, Second John, so forth, and read it.
And look at the nature of that, then look at the nature of this.
John was a writer and was an apostle, but this is the spirit of a
prophet. It’s a different person, altogether.”
We took this passage here from the message, “The
Revelation Of Jesus Christ,” from page 16.1 Let’s see what it
says there. It says:
“It might have been Elijah. It might have been one of the
prophets. John was an apostle. But this prophet was sent.”
And further down, it says:
“John was a writer and was an apostle, but this is the
spirit of a prophet.”
And now, let’s see what Rev. William Branham tells us
in the Book The Revelation Of The Seven Seals… We already
have a clear picture of who that Prophet is, in other words, of
who that Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ is: he is a prophet, and
he is a major prophet, he is a dispensational prophet.
John was transported to the Lord’s Day.2 That is a
prophet who will be on Earth on the Lord’s Day, that spirit of
a prophet will be on Earth in human flesh, and that is why he
is sent to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ to testify all
these things which must shortly come to pass:
“I Jesus have sent mine angel to testify unto you these
things in the churches.”
Let’s also see here, in the message The Revelation Of
The Seven Seals, page 346 [paragraphs 201-203, 205-209].
Rev. William Branham says:
1 The Seven Church Ages (literal transcription), “The
Revelation Of Jesus Christ,” page 16, paragraphs 109, 110
2 Revelation 1:106 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
“Notice now.
And then according to the—the time that God was going
to deliver the antediluvian world, He sent the eagle.” What
does that mean? He sent a prophet, the Prophet Noah; an
eagle, a major eagle, a dispensational prophet-messenger. “And
time He was going to deliver Israel,” (meaning, from bondage
in Egypt), “He sent the eagle.” Who? The Prophet Moses, a
dispensational prophet.
“Do you believe that the time, even on John, on the Isle
of Patmos, this Message was so perfect that He couldn’t trust
It with an Angel?” (A literal Angel.) “You know, an angel is a
messenger. But do you know the messenger was a prophet?
You believe that? [Congregation says, ‘Amen.’—Ed.] Let’s
prove it. Revelation 22, let’s see if it was a eagle. Yeah. See, he
was a…Sure, he was an angel, he’s the messenger, but it was
a prophet that revealed this whole Book of Revelation to him.”
“...Watch what John seen here.
…I John saw these things, and heard them.
Now he’s closing. This is the last chapter.
…And when I…heard and seen, I fell down to worship
before the feet of the angel which showed these things, which
showed me these things.
And, ‘he,’ then, ‘the angel,’ see.
Then said he to me, See thou do it not:…
No true prophet would be worshipped, or messenger of
any kind, see. That’s to God alone.
Then said he unto me, See thou do it not: for I am thy
fellowservant, and of thy brethren the prophets, and of them
that keep the sayings of this book: worship God.”
(Revelation 22:8-9.)
“See? Now, the Book was so important, that, It is the
Word of God. Now watch. And when the Word of God is
brought forth, It’s got to be brought by the prophet, because
that’s who the Word of God comes to.”
When the people are waiting for a manifestation of GodWHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED... 7
for an age or a dispensation, where God has to reveal Himself
and reveal something to the people, well, He has to send a
prophet for that time who has both consciouses together; and
God can speak with him and give him the Message for that
time, give him the Divine Revelation, and that prophet gives
that Divine Revelation to the people.
That is why we find that the Bible has been given by
God through His messengers, His prophets.
And now, at the end time, the Church will be waiting for
the rapturing revelation, the rapturing faith; and for that, He
must send His Angel-Messenger, who is a dispensational
prophet, so that this revelation comes to him and he passes it
on to God’s people, to the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ,
and testifies to them all these things which must shortly come
to pass at this end time.
Now, Christ, notice, as the manifestation of God in all
His fullness, fulfilled the First Coming of the Messiah. And
what was the First Coming of the Messiah? It was the Coming
of the Angel of the Covenant, the God of Abraham, Isaac, and
Jacob, who delivered the Hebrew people, the Angel of the
Covenant clothed in a Body of human flesh called Jesus,
coming in all His fullness in a Body of flesh that He Himself
created in Mary’s womb; and that was His human Throne here
on Earth in those days.
The first Throne was in Heaven: the Throne of God in
Heaven. The second Throne [was] Jesus, God’s human
Throne. And the third Throne pertains to this end time.
And now, at this end time, just as the Father was in His
human Throne in the fulfillment of the First Coming of the
Messiah, the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord in
His human Throne, His Throne of Mercy: Jesus… through that
Throne, notice, He carried out the Work of Redemption and
brought mercy to the human race.
Now, we can see how Christ then ascended to Heaven
and sat on the Throne of God in Heaven, the Throne of the8 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
Father; and He has been making intercession from the Throne
of the Father for every person whose name has been written in
Heaven, in the Lamb’s Book of Life, before the foundation of
the world. They all have their names written there. Where? In
the Book of the Seven Seals, which is the Lamb’s Book of
Life.
But Christ will leave the Throne of Intercession there in
Heaven, the Throne of the Father, because He will claim His
Throne, the Throne of David, which He will sit and reign upon
in the Millennium and throughout eternity. And He says: “To
him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my throne,
even as I also overcame, and am set down with my Father in
his throne.”3
That promise will be fulfilled to this Angel of the Lord
Jesus Christ at the Last Day; and that Angel of the Lord Jesus
Christ will be the instrument of Jesus Christ of the Last Day.
Now, let’s see Jesus Christ, the Angel of the Covenant,
in the midst of His Church from stage to stage.
We find Him in chapter 1 in the midst of the golden
candlesticks, in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks; and
there, in Revelation chapter 1, we find Him with His golden
girdle about the paps [the chest], and dressed in a robe, in a
long garment, His eyes as a flame of fire, out of His mouth
goes a sharp sword, His countenance as the sun, His hair white
like wool, and His feet as pillars of fire, and His Voice as the
sound of many waters. All those are the symbols, the attributes
that Christ will be manifesting at the Last Day when He
changes from Priest to Judge, and from Lamb to Lion, to
King.
Now, Christ has been in Holy Spirit from stage to stage;
and Christ is the Angel of the Covenant, the Angel of the Lord,
who delivered the Hebrew people. That is why He said to the
Hebrew people: “Before Abraham was, I am.” He had told
3 Revelation 3:21WHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED... 9
them: “Abraham desired to see My day; he saw it, and was
glad.” And now, they tell Him: “You are not yet fifty years
old, and You say that You have seen Abraham?” He tells
them: “Before Abraham was, I am.” That is in Saint John
chapter 8, verses 56 to 58.
And now, how was He before Abraham, if His physical
Body had been born in Bethlehem of Judea? His physical
Body was thirty to thirty-three years old, but the One who was
in that Body had been with the Hebrew people, He had
delivered the Hebrew people, and He had been with Abraham,
He had visited Abraham, He had eaten with Abraham the day
before the destruction of Sodom and Gomorrah; and Abraham
called Him “Elohim.”4
He appeared to Abraham with His Archangels, Gabriel
and Michael; they were made… they were materialized: God
created a body out of the dust of the ground for Gabriel and
Michael, and He created one for Himself, for that temporary
visit to Abraham.
And that is a type and figure of what will be happening
at this end time, in the Coming of the Son of man with His
Angels. Just as the Son of man came with His Angels to
Abraham, this blessing of the Coming of the Son of man with
His Angels at the Last Day also comes to the Seed of
Abraham.
And now, notice that with that visit of Elohim, He
marked the end of the Gentiles of Sodom and Gomorrah. And
when the Archangels Gabriel and Michael went to Sodom and
Gomorrah in a visible form, we find that there was no longer
mercy for them; we find that although they were there, there
was no longer an opportunity for them: the door was already
shut.
And notice, even in type and figure, when the Angels
took Lot and pulled him into his house and shut the door, the
4 Genesis 1810 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
people of Sodom and Gomorrah could no longer find the door;
they were blind looking for the door and could not find it.5
And now, the Door of the Gentiles will be shut at any
moment. And when the manifestation of the power of God in
all His fullness is carrying out the great wonders and miracles
that are promised under the Tent Vision that was given to Rev.
William Branham, by that time, the Door of the Gentiles will
be shut; and if it has not been completely shut, it will be shut
in those days. By that time, Christ will adopt His Angel, and
through His Angel He will carry out great miracles and
wonders and He will operate the ministries of Moses and
Elijah in His Angel, and the ministry of Jesus.
And now, by that time, the Gentiles will see those
ministries carrying out those wonders, but it will already be
too late; that will be the Third Pull for the lost. But that Third
Pull is also for the foolish virgins, and a blessing will come to
them there—although they will know that they will have to go
through the Great Tribulation. But that Third Pull will also be
for God’s elect, the Bride-Church, God’s firstborn, who
receive their adoption: those who are alive receive their
transformation, and the dead in Christ receive their
resurrection.
And now, at this end time, the Angel who revealed to
John the revelation of this apocalyptic Book in this symbolic
form is the same Angel of which Jesus Christ says: “I Jesus
have sent My Angel to testify unto you these things in the
churches.”
The same Angel is sent to Christianity to testify all these
things and to reveal to the mystical Body of Christ all these
things which must shortly come to pass at this end time.
At this end time, this Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ
appears, in whom Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, will be
manifested in the Age of the Cornerstone.
5 Genesis 19:1-11WHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED... 11
Notice, Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, from age to
age has been in the messenger of each age, in the portion
pertaining to each age, and He has been reflecting Himself;
and He has been reflecting what His manifestation will be here
[Dr. Soto points to the top of the pyramid diagram “The
Stature Of A Perfect Man”—Ed.], in the Age of the
Cornerstone, through the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ. In
other words, all those manifestations we have seen in the seven
angel-messengers are a sample of what Christ will do through
His Angel-Messenger at the Last Day.
The revelation for each age came to the angel-messenger
of each age, and Christ identified Himself with the angelmessenger in each age (the angel-messenger of each age); and
the revelation of Christ for each age and the manifestation of
Christ for each age came to him. And that was the revelation
of Jesus Christ: Christ veiled and revealed in each age, in the
angel-messenger of each age.
And that shows what He will do in the Age of the
Cornerstone, where He will be veiled and revealed in His
Angel-Messenger, making known to us all these things which
must shortly come to pass at this end time; to the extent that
the moment will come when He will adopt him, once the
number of God’s elect has been completed under the Work of
Christ through His Angel-Messenger. And then He will adopt
him. And from that point on the great wonders and miracles
will be seen on a large scale; but the Door will already be shut
because the very last of God’s elect will have already entered.
God will also call the elect among the Hebrew people,
which we haven’t wanted to talk very much about to avoid
interrupting the Program that God has with the Hebrew people,
where He will call one hundred and forty-four thousand
Hebrews; and only the Angel who comes with the Seal of the
living God in Revelation chapter 7, which is the same Angel of
the Lord Jesus Christ who comes with the Holy Spirit, with the
Angel of the Covenant manifested in him, is the only one who12 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
knows the mechanics, and also the dynamics, for the call to
those one hundred and forty-four thousand Hebrews.
And he will be keeping that Divine secret so that no one
tries to impersonate what he will do when the number of the
elect of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ is complete.
The first part has to do with the Church of Jesus Christ,
and that is why we are working among the Gentiles, among the
Latin American and Caribbean people, and taking the
Message; and the Latin American and Caribbean elect of the
Last Day are being called and gathered together into the
mystical Body of Christ, in the Age of the Cornerstone.
And now, the Angel of the Covenant, who has been from
age to age … who is Christ in Holy Spirit, has been carrying
out His Work from age to age in the messenger of each age;
now He is in the Age of the Cornerstone, and through His
Angel-Messenger He carries out His Work pertaining to the
Age of the Cornerstone, and He calls and gathers the elect of
the Last Day.
And now, WHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT
REVEALED THE BOOK OF REVELATION TO JOHN?
[Original recording cuts briefly—Ed.]
…A dispensational messenger is sent to all Christianity.
And the elect will be seeing him and they will be receiving
him, and they will be receiving the Message of Christ through
him. And they will be seeing the manifestation of Christ
through him at this end time, making known to us through His
Angel all these things which must shortly come to pass.
Because no man can know these things that the Angel of
Jesus Christ will be making known to the Church of Jesus
Christ except for Christ, the Angel of the Covenant; and He
reveals them to His Angel-Messenger, and through His AngelMessenger He makes them known to His Church.
And now, we have seen where the Angel of the Lord
Jesus Christ is at the Last Day: in the Age of the Cornerstone,
in the mystical Body of Christ, in the Golden Age of theWHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED... 13
Church of Jesus Christ.
And now, where is the Angel of the Covenant? In His
Angel-Messenger, just as He was in the angel-messenger of
each age.
And now, the Angel of the Covenant was in each
territory where each age was fulfilled, and where was He? In
the messenger of each age; because the revelation of God, of
Christ, came to the messenger of each age, and Christ revealed
Himself in each age through the messenger. And that was the
revelation of Jesus Christ for each age.
And at the Last Day, the revelation of Jesus Christ in the
Age of the Cornerstone is through His Angel-Messenger; and
through him, He makes known to us all the things which must
come to pass at this end time that we need to know to obtain
the faith to be changed and raptured at this end time.
And now, which is the territory pertaining to the
revelation of Jesus Christ of the Last Day through His AngelMessenger? Well, Latin America and the Caribbean; because
for North America, Europe, and Asia Minor, the revelation of
Jesus Christ through His seven angel-messengers was already
carried out; and now all that is left is the revelation of Jesus
Christ through His Angel-Messenger at the Last Day, in the
Age of the Cornerstone, in the mystical Body of Christ, in the
Latin American and Caribbean territory.
Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, the Holy Spirit, the
white-horse Rider of Revelation 19, verses 11 to 21, comes
veiled and revealed in His Angel-Messenger at the Last Day.
The Word, the Angel of the Covenant, Jesus Christ in Holy
Spirit, veiled and revealed in His Angel-Messenger and
through His Angel-Messenger in the Age of the Cornerstone,
in the mystical Body of Jesus Christ.
See what the revelation of Jesus Christ for this end time
is? It is the manifestation of Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit through
His Angel-Messenger at this end time.
And the knowledge of that revelation, of that14 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
manifestation of Christ through His Angel-Messenger, can
only be made known by Christ, the Holy Spirit, through His
Angel-Messenger. Because no man will know who the Angel
of the Lord Jesus Christ will be but Jesus Christ, the One who
sent him; and no man will know who Jesus Christ revealed at
the Last Day will be but His Angel-Messenger, in whom He
will be veiled and revealed at the Last Day, making known to
us all these things which must shortly come to pass.
Just like in the First Coming of Christ, in the Coming of
the Angel of the Covenant two thousand years ago, no man
knew who the Son was but the Father; and no man knew who
the Father was but the Son and he to whom the Son willed to
reveal Him. And to whom did He reveal Him? To those
humble people.
And now, notice, that is why Christ said in Saint
Matthew chapter 11, verse 25 and on, full of joy, very joyful,
He said… Let’s read what He said here, because this will be
repeated at this end time. Chapter 11, verse 25 and on, says:
“At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O
Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these
things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto
babes.
Even so, Father: for so it seemed good in thy sight.
All things are delivered unto me of my Father: and no
man knoweth the Son, but the Father; neither knoweth any
man the Father, save the Son, and he to whomsoever the Son
will reveal him.”
And at this end time, no man will know the Angel of the
Lord Jesus Christ but the Lord Jesus Christ; and no man will
know the Lord Jesus Christ veiled and revealed at the Last
Day, revealed in His Church at the Last Day but His AngelMessenger and he to whom His Angel-Messenger will reveal
Him; and he will be revealing Him to God’s elect of the Last
Day in the Age of the Cornerstone, in the Latin American and
Caribbean territory.WHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED... 15
That is how it is in the Divine Program; and it is
represented in the temple Moses built and the temple Solomon
built.
We find that the Outer Court is in the East. And the Holy
Place starts in the East, It continues through the land of Israel,
Asia Minor, Europe, and North America, where the different
ages of the Church are fulfilled, which pertain to the Holy
Place of that spiritual Temple, which is the Church. And then,
in Latin America and the Caribbean, the Age of the
Cornerstone is fulfilled, which is the Holy of Holies of that
spiritual Temple.
Where was the holy of holies in the tabernacle Moses
built and the temple Solomon built? In the West. Where is
Latin America and the Caribbean? In the West; it belongs to
the Western continent, to the continent of the West: it belongs
to the continent of the Americas.
Now notice the great blessing Christ has given us in
Latin America and the Caribbean.
That is why the Seven Thunders utter their Voices in a
language unknown to the seven angel-messengers; a language
unknown to the seventh angel-messenger,6 because the
language he spoke was English.
And now, the Voices of the Seven Thunders, the Voice
of Christ crying out as when a lion roars and Seven Thunders
uttering their Voices, speak in the main language of Latin
America and the Caribbean, which is Spanish. That is the
language He uses in the Age of the Cornerstone, in the Holy of
Holies of the spiritual Temple of Jesus Christ our Savior.
And He will be speaking through His Angel-Messenger,
in that language, to all of God’s elect of the Last Day; and He
will call them and gather them with the Message of the Great
Voice of Trumpet of the Gospel of the Kingdom, which
6 The Revelation Of The Seven Seals, “The Seventh Seal,”
page 549, paragraphs 299-30016 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
revolves around the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of
the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords in His
Claiming Work.
And now we can see that the mystical Body of Christ is
where the Angel of the Lord Jesus Christ will be, and in the
age pertaining to this time (which is the Age of the
Cornerstone), and the territory pertaining to this time (which is
Latin America and the Caribbean), and with the language
pertaining to the Age of the Cornerstone and the Dispensation
of the Kingdom (which is Spanish, the language pertaining to
all the Divine Revelation of Christ for the Age of the
Cornerstone).
And this is the time for this mystery to be revealed to the
Church of Jesus Christ, and thus, for Her to obtain the
knowledge of all these things which must shortly come to pass,
and be prepared to be changed and raptured at this end time.
The Coming of the Angel of the Covenant in human
flesh two thousand years ago was in the East: the land of
Israel. The Coming of the Angel of the Covenant, Jesus Christ
in Holy Spirit, at the Last Day, is in the West: the land of Latin
America and the Caribbean, among the Latin American and
Caribbean people.
And now, this is consistent with what Jesus said, that the
Coming of the Son of man will be as the lightning that comes
out of the East and shines (where?) in the West.7 The First
Coming: in the East, the land of Israel; and the Second Coming
of the Son of man: in the West, the continent of the Americas.
And only the part of the Latin American and Caribbean
people is left for the fulfillment of that promise, because in the
other parts: North America, Europe, and Asia Minor, and the
land of Israel, what had to be fulfilled in these past ages has
already been fulfilled.
And after that great manifestation of Christ through His
7 Matthew 24:27WHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED... 17
Angel-Messenger in the West, the Gospel will turn to the
Hebrew people, and they will say… Let’s see what Rev.
William Branham says all of this will be. Page 70 [paragraphs
29-31] of the Book The Revelation Of The Seven Seals, says:
“…I saw another mighty angel come down from heaven,
clothed with a cloud: and a rainbow…upon his head,…
If you notice, that’s Christ, see. Cause, He, in the Old
Testament, was called the Angel of the Covenant. And He is
directly coming to the Jews now, for the Church is finished.
See? All right.
…and his face…as it were the sun, and his feet as pillars
of fire:
You remember that Angel in Revelation 1? Same thing.
Angel is a ‘messenger.’ And He’s the Messenger to Israel.
See? The Church has been raptured, see, now, or fixing to be
raptured. He comes for His Church.”
Now, the Church is fixing to be raptured because She
has come to the Last Day, and He comes for His Church.
And now, since He is the Messenger to Israel, the Angel
of the Covenant, the One who delivered the Hebrew people,
and who was also in human flesh, in the veil of flesh called
Jesus, two thousand years ago… And now, He comes to the
Hebrew people, but since His Church is at the time when She
must be raptured and the dead in Christ must be raised, then
He comes for His Church; because He has been in the midst of
His Church from age to age, and He goes up to the Age of the
Cornerstone, and that is when He comes for His Church,
manifested at this end time.
And He is also the white-horse Rider of Revelation 19,
whose Name is called the Word of God. It is the Coming of
the Angel of the Covenant, the Holy Spirit, coming manifested
at the Last Day in human flesh in His Angel-Messenger. But
His Angel is not the Lord Jesus Christ; he is only the
instrument of Christ, so that Christ reveals Himself through
him and speaks to His Church through him, and speaks to the18 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
Hebrew people through him as well.
And now, let’s see what will be happening at this end
time. On page 26, it says in paragraphs* 729 to 730, in this
excerpt of “Questions And Answers On Hebrews Part III,” it
says:
“…And there’s them two witnesses.
And when they tormented the church, or the world, by
their preaching,” (in other words, by preaching the Divine
Judgments that are to come), “and receiving back the Jews,
and bringing them back to repentance, bringing them back to
believe on…When they see Jesus coming for the Bride, they’ll
say, ‘Lo, this is our God whom we waited on. That’s Him!’ But
He’s not coming for them; He come for His Bride.”
And how does He come for His Bride? He comes as the
Mighty Angel who comes down from Heaven, and He comes
veiling Himself and revealing Himself in human flesh in His
Angel-Messenger at the Last Day, and manifesting Himself
through His Angel-Messenger, and making known to us all
these things which must shortly come to pass at this end time;
and calling and gathering the elect, and preparing us to be
changed and raptured, to be adopted.
And when Christ adopts His Angel—and then He will
also adopt all of us—the Hebrew people will see that
manifestation; because when the Angel of Jesus Christ is
adopted, then great wonders and miracles will happen. And the
Tent Vision will be literally fulfilled at that time, with great
wonders and miracles, and It will shake the whole world, and
the Hebrew people too, and all of Christianity. Because the
Third Pull, which is the stage of the fulfillment of the Tent
Vision, which is the stage of the fulfillment of the Seventh
Seal, of the Second Coming of Christ, pertains to the Last Day,
when we are adopted by Christ and we obtain our new body.
So those days—it will be thirty to forty days, when we
have the new body; we will spend thirty to forty days here on
Earth with the new body, and then we will leave. But in thirtyWHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED... 19
or forty days we will be able to do what could not be done in
thousands of years. Why? Because in an eternal, immortal,
incorruptible body that has no limitations, by just speaking the
Word, things will come into existence. There is the secret of
the mystery of the Tent Vision, the mystery of the Third Pull.
That will be when Christ adopts His Angel-Messenger.
And notice, it says here on page 13, paragraph 111 says
[“Everlasting Life And How To Receive It”]:
“But when you stay in the Kingdom, stay in the Gospel,
stay right, one of these days God will call you out and set you
aside, adopt you as His son, before the people, and give you
something that will shake the nations, with it.”
Now, notice what it will be like in those days.
But before the adoption, we have to be in the preadoption stage, where we have to be working in the Work of
Christ, as Jesus said: “I must be about My Father’s business,”8
the business of the One who would adopt Him. And He
adopted Him when He was about thirty-two and a half years
old, so that later, in a period of six months, He could carry out
the Work pertaining to that stage of a Son that was already
adopted. And it was in that stage that He carried out the Work
of Redemption, and it was also in that stage that He entered
Jerusalem on a donkey; and He carried out quite a few things
in that stage.
And now, in that stage of adoption, once we are
changed, we will have thirty to forty days here on Earth. And
there will be no limits in terms of what Christ, the Angel of the
Covenant, will do through His Church and in the midst of His
Church at this end time, through the ministry He will have in
the midst of His Church, which will be the ministry of the
Angel of the Covenant through His Angel-Messenger at this
end time.
And now, notice where the Angel of the Lord Jesus
8 Luke 2:4920 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
Christ is: well, he has to be in the Age of the Cornerstone,
because that is the age where he will be adopted; because the
Age of the Cornerstone is the Age of Adoption.
Where was Christ in His First Coming? Well, in the Age
of the Cornerstone of His time. John the Baptist was the
seventh messenger of the seventh age of the Hebrew Church
under the Law, just as Rev. William Branham was the seventh
messenger of the seventh age of the Church under the
Dispensation of Grace; and then comes the Age of the
Cornerstone, the Age of the Adoption.
No one can be adopted outside the Age of the
Cornerstone, and no one can be adopted outside the mystical
Body of Christ.
Therefore, every person who will be adopted at this end
time, all the sons and daughters of God, will be in the mystical
Body of Christ, in the Age of the Cornerstone (those who are
alive).
And the dead in Christ were the ones who lived in their
ages and received the Word through the manifestation of the
Holy Spirit, the Angel of the Covenant, through the messenger
of each age; but they will come to the Age of the Cornerstone
with their eternal bodies. And in Paradise they hear what is
spoken here, in the Age of the Cornerstone, because they can
look over here and they can see and they can also hear.
Therefore, they can hear the Great Voice of Trumpet
sounding at this end time; the Voice of the Son of man, the
Voice of the Angel of the Covenant, of Jesus Christ through
His Angel-Messenger, giving us His Last Message: the
Message of the Great Voice of Trumpet of the Gospel of the
Kingdom revealing the mystery of the Seventh Seal, the
mystery of the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the
tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords in His
Claiming Work.
And the Last Trumpet or Great Voice of Trumpet or
Seventh Trumpet, like the Seventh Seal, is the Coming of theWHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED... 21
Lord; in other words, the Seventh Trumpet of Revelation
chapter 11, verse 15 and on, and the Seventh Seal, are the
Coming of the Lord. What the Seventh Trumpet is to the
Hebrew people is the Seventh Seal to the Church of Jesus
Christ, which is the Coming of the Lord.
Now, notice something else, something else on page 38
of the message “The Feast Of The Trumpets,” where he says…
Let’s find this passage here… on page 38, paragraph 290, Rev.
William Branham says:
“The ministry will be Moses and Elijah, changing and
calling Israel from the Jewish traditions, listen, from the
Jewish traditions that they had been mixed up in. Being
prophets, they’ll believe—they’ll believe him, calling them to
the feast of the Atonement, Christ, letting them recognize
Christ. They’ll say, ‘He is coming. He’ll be here.’ The Jews
will be gathering, things like that.
And then when He comes, say, ‘Here I am.’”
When Christ comes manifested in all His fullness at the
Last Day, when He adopts His elect of this end time in the Age
of the Cornerstone, when he adopts us and adopts His AngelMessenger, that is when Christ will reveal Himself to the
Hebrew people; and that is when the revelation of the Second
Coming of Christ will go on to the Hebrew people.
Now we can see that mystery, which pertains to this end
time; and we can see through whom Christ will be revealing
Himself to His Church at the Last Day, in the Age of the
Cornerstone and Dispensation of the Kingdom. Where? In
what territory? The Latin American and Caribbean territory;
where It is built—where Christ builds the Holy of Holies of
His spiritual Temple out of human beings, out of living
stones.
And once that construction of the Holy of Holies is
complete, the Church of Jesus Christ will have been
completed, and then He will have finished His Work of
Intercession in Heaven; and therefore, He will leave the22 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
Throne of Intercession and make His claim. He will take the
Book out of the right hand of Him that sits on the Throne, and
He will open It, He will make His claim: He will raise the dead
in Christ and He will change us.
And then we will work more freely. We won’t be
sweating like this, because in the new body—surely the new
body will be fully equipped, in that regard too, where neither
heat, nor cold, nor lack of food, nor lack of sleep, nor lack of
transportation will get in the way of our work; because we will
not be limited to this earthly dimension, instead, we will have
a glorified body just like the Body of Jesus Christ.
And notice, when He had to enter where the disciples
were assembled, He entered without them opening the door.9
And when He had to leave, He didn’t tell them: “Get me a taxi
to take me to the airport, because I have to go.” If they had
gotten Him a taxi, it would have been a one-horsepower or
one-donkeypower taxi, which were the “cars” they used in
those times, four-wheeled or four-legged cars.
But notice, He didn’t ask them to get Him an animal to
go to the House of the Heavenly Father; and neither will we, to
go to the House of our Heavenly Father with Christ, to the
Marriage Supper of the Lamb. We will go with Christ the same
way He went. That is a promise for each one of you and also
for me; because we will be caught up to Heaven and we will
go with Christ to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb in Heaven.
Now, first we have to be in the pre-adoption stage.
There are people who have perhaps read the prophecies
of Rev. William Branham, and have read the prophecy of the
Tent Vision, and perhaps one of them may say: “When I see
those miracles, I will believe.” Well, when he sees those
miracles, if he did not believe before that and he was not in the
pre-adoption stage… By that time, the ones who will be
adopted have already been in the pre-adoption stage: believing
9 John 20:19WHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED... 23
and hearing the Voice of Christ speaking through His AngelMessenger all these things which must shortly come to pass,
and they will be prepared to be adopted, and they will be
adopted! And whoever had not been prepared, whoever was
not prepared because he was not in the pre-adoption age, in the
pre-adoption stage, well, he cannot be expecting an adoption.
So, to wait to see the fulfillment of those great miracles
in the Tent Vision to then believe is to wait to believe when
the Door is already shut. There will no longer be an
opportunity for the transformation and rapture then; but there
will be an opportunity to hold on tight to Christ and say: “Even
if we go through the Great Tribulation we will give our lives
for Christ in the Great Tribulation,” and then they will have
that opportunity there.
Because the Third Pull, where the Tent Vision will be
fulfilled, will be for the Bride (the elect); but it will also be for
the foolish virgins, and it will also be for the world, for the
lost, who can no longer repent. And even if they repent, there
is no Blood in Heaven, on the Throne of God, for their sins to
be washed away and for Christ to make intercession for them,
because Christ will have already left the Throne of
Intercession, and He will be manifested in all His fullness in
His Angel-Messenger at the Last Day. And that will be a new
stage in the Divine Program. And we will only be here for
thirty to forty days, and then we will go with Christ to the
Marriage Supper of the Lamb.
And we will not be able to say anything else to those
who stay, except: “We will see each other in a few years (for
the one hundred and forty-four thousand); but in a thousand
years, plus three and a half more years, we will see each other
again.” That will be when they rise to be judged by Christ and
His Church, by Christ and by us.
In other words, all those things will be happening. And
the important thing for us is that we are hearing the Voice of
Christ and we are being prepared in that pre-adoption stage so24 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
that we have the faith, the revelation: the rapturing revelation,
the rapturing faith, which is the revelation of the Seventh Seal,
the revelation of the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of
the tribe of Judah, as King of kings and Lord of lords in His
Claiming Work.
That is the revelation that the Message of the Gospel of
the Kingdom, the Message of the Great Voice of Trumpet,
revolves around; and that is the Message that Christ, the Angel
of the Covenant, gives us through His Angel-Messenger, with
which He reveals to us all these things which must shortly
come to pass at this end time.
We have seen where He reveals all these things to us.
Where? In His Church. In which stage of His Church? In the
stage of the Age of the Cornerstone. In which territory? In
Latin America and the Caribbean. In which language? In
Spanish. Through whom? Through His Angel-Messenger, to
the Latin American and Caribbean people; and that includes all
those who live in that territory, and even those who have gone
to other territories, but who have Latin American or Caribbean
roots.
And among all the Latin American and Caribbean
people, we find that there are also [people with] Hebrew roots;
and we don’t know if half or more than half of those who will
be receiving the Message at the Last Day are people with
Hebrew roots.
So… Remember that on the day of Pentecost the Church
began with Hebrews (that first phase of the Church), and It
began among the Hebrew people; but the Hebrew people have
been scattered throughout the entire world. And Latin America
and the Caribbean has many Hebrews, some who do know that
they are Hebrews, and others who don’t know that they are
Hebrews, but they are Hebrews, they have Hebrew roots.
But because of the persecutions that they went through,
they even changed their names, and they started moving from
place to place to save their lives, and they even converted toWHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED... 25
Christianity, to protect themselves.
And notice, and others truly believed; but some did it to
protect their lives and their families, and so on. And they never
told anyone they were Hebrews because if they said so they
would kill them, they would take everything from them and
send them to be killed.
So notice, Latin America and the Caribbean is a seedbed
of sons and daughters of God; and it is also a seedbed of
Hebrews, some of whom don’t even know they are Hebrews,
and others do know they are Hebrews. So, God does know
how many have Hebrew roots among the Latin American and
Caribbean people.
And remember that the Root and the Offspring of David,
which is Christ—remember that Christ will manifest all of that
somewhere. He will be manifested and He will give the Bright
and Morning Star; therefore, someone will receive the Bright
and Morning Star as well as that whole blessing of the Throne,
sitting on the Throne with Christ; and Christ will be
manifesting His Root, the Root and the Offspring of David. He
will do it in a certain way so that the Hebrew people can say:
“This is the One we are waiting for.”
Now, let’s leave that alone, since that pertains to the
Hebrew people; and they will see Christ in His human Throne,
the Throne of Christ; and then, in the Millennial Kingdom, we
will see Christ and the Overcomer on the Throne of the
Millennial Kingdom.
“To him that overcometh will I grant to sit with me in my
throne, even as I also overcame, and am set down with my
Father in his throne.”
Therefore, they will both be in the human Throne as
well. And let’s leave it at that.
We have seen where the Angel of Jesus Christ would
be: He would be in that human Throne. And notice, the Age of
the Cornerstone is also the Age of the Throne; therefore, the
Age of the Throne must be where Christ has a human Throne,26 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
and also where He puts that Spirit of a prophet that revealed all
that apocalyptic revelation to John. And then it will all go to
the literal Throne of Christ, the Throne of David there in
Israel.
Now notice, it will go from the Age of the Throne of the
Church of Jesus Christ to the Age of the Throne of the
Millennial Kingdom.
We have seen WHERE THE ANGEL THAT
REVEALED TO JOHN THE BOOK OF REVELATION IS
TODAY.
It has been a great privilege to be with you this
afternoon, testifying to you about: “WHERE IS THE
ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED THE BOOK OF
REVELATION TO JOHN?”
May the blessings of Jesus Christ, the Angel of the
Covenant, be upon all of you and also upon me. And soon,
may Christ complete the number of His elect in His mystical
Body, in His Church; and may He raise the dead in Christ and
change us, and take us with Him to the Marriage Supper of the
Lamb in Heaven. In the Eternal Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Amen.
Thank you very much for your kind attention, beloved
friends and brethren present; and continue having an evening
filled with the blessings of Jesus Christ our Savior, the Angel
of the Covenant, who—at this end time—would be blessing us
with His Word, revealing to us all these things through His
Angel-Messenger.
Remember, these things don’t happen without a reason,
but rather, they are the Program of Christ pertaining to this end
time. And we have been given the blessing of being the people
in whom He would manifest, reveal, all these things which
must come to pass; and He would give us the blessing of the
Last Day, the greatest blessing. Because if the blessing for the
Hebrews is great, the blessing for us is even greater! TheWHERE IS THE ANGEL TODAY THAT REVEALED... 27
blessing for those who will be adopted at this end time is even
greater; because we will be like Christ our Savior: we will be
in the image and likeness of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ.
So, the Program of Christ is that we be like Him. To be
like Christ. That is the Program for which we have been
called: to be adopted at this end time and be like Christ our
Savior.
And we will not be like Christ just because we desire to
be like Christ, but because we have been elected by God
before the foundation of the world to be like Him. In other
words, it is not of him who wills, nor of him who runs, but of
God who shows mercy.10
He is the One who determined it that way. And that is
why we have come from eternity, from the House of our
Heavenly Father, from the seventh dimension; that is where
our soul has come from; and it has come to this earthly
dimension to come in contact with Eternal Life and for us to be
adopted at this end time.
Well, to be like Christ, that is to be adopted: for us who
are alive to be changed and the dead in Christ to be raised in
eternal bodies, and thus, to be in the image and likeness of
Jesus Christ our Savior. To be like Christ, which will happen
very soon.
We already have the firstfruits of the adoption, which is
the baptism of the Holy Spirit, by believing in Christ as our
Savior, washing away our sins in His Blood, and receiving His
Holy Spirit; and thus, receiving a spirit, a theophanic body of
the sixth dimension, a heavenly body.
We already have the heavenly body of the sixth
dimension, and now what we need is the physical and eternal
body to have the full adoption. That is the fullness of the
adoption: to have the fullness of God.
10 Romans 9:1628 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
We already have the firstfruits, which is the down
payment, as Rev. William Branham said.11 The down payment
is the firstfruits; and then we will have the fullness when we
receive the new body.
That is why we are in this pre-adoption stage, hearing
the Voice of Christ, the Angel of the Covenant, making known
to us all these things which must shortly come to pass at this
end time, and we are following Christ; and we follow Him
with our faith put in Him, put in Christ.
Follow, follow, I will follow Jesus Christ, the Angel of
the Covenant. He is the One who will put us in the Promised
Land of the new body and in the Promised Land of the
Millennial Kingdom. And before the Millennial Kingdom, He
will take us to a Supper, to a great Feast; because when a king
is established to reign, first a feast is made (before he begins to
reign). And now, that is the heavenly Feast: the Marriage
Supper of the Lamb.
May God continue to bless you all, may God keep you;
and onward serving Jesus Christ, following Christ, with all our
soul, because soon we will be adopted, soon we will be
changed! And we will be in the image and likeness of Jesus
Christ our Savior. And we will be young for all eternity.
May God bless you and keep you all, and thank you very
much for your kind attention. God bless you.
