some moments of fellowship around the Word of God and His
Program pertaining to this end time.
Tonight I want to read in Hebrews chapter 3, verse 1
to 6, where Saint Paul says:
“Wherefore, holy brethren, partakers of the
heavenly calling, consider the Apostle and High Priest of our
profession, Christ Jesus;
Who was faithful to him that appointed him, as also
Moses was faithful in all his house.
For this man was counted worthy of more glory than
Moses, inasmuch as he who hath builded the house hath more
honour than the house.
For every house is builded by some man; but he that
built all things is God.
And Moses verily was faithful in all his house, as a
servant, for a testimony of those things which were to be
spoken after;
But Christ as a son over his own house; whose house
are we, if we hold fast the confidence and the rejoicing of the
hope firm unto the end.”
May God bless our souls with His Word and allow us4 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
to understand It.
Our subject for this occasion is: “THE MYSTERY
OF GOD’S TABERNACLE,” in other words, the mystery of
the House of whom? God. That is our subject for this
occasion.
“THE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE.”
God commanded Moses to build a tabernacle and
showed him the pattern of that tabernacle, which is a type and
figure of God’s Tabernacle in Heaven. That is why it was so
important for Moses to build that whole tabernacle, that
temple, according to the pattern that God showed him in
Heaven.
In Hebrews chapter 8, verse 5, it says (and even if we
read a little bit before that)... Chapter 8, verse 1 to 6, tells us:
“Now of the things which we have spoken this is the
sum: We have such an high priest, who is set on the right
hand of the throne of the Majesty in the heavens;
A minister of the sanctuary, and of the true tabernacle,
which the Lord pitched, and not man.
For every high priest is ordained to offer gifts and
sacrifices: wherefore it is of necessity that this man have
somewhat also to offer.
For if he were on earth, he should not be a priest,
seeing that there are priests that offer gifts according to the
law…”
In other words, of Melchizedek, Jesus Christ, Saint
Paul says: “If He were on Earth, He should not be a priest of
the temple there in Jerusalem.” Why? Notice, He did not
belong to the tribe of Levi, to have the priesthood; He was not
a descendant of Aaron, to be a high priest; therefore, He
wouldn’t be a priest in the earthly temple, but in the heavenly
Temple, there in Heaven, He is the High Priest.
“ ...Who serve unto the example and shadow of
heavenly things...”THE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 5
In other words, in the earthly temple that Moses built
and the temple that Solomon built, the priests served there in
that temple; but the things which were represented there, in
those types and figures, like the candlestick or lampstand with
its seven lamps, the shewbread, and all the other things there
in the holy place, as well as in the outer court (the things that
were there) and also in the holy of holies, were a type and
figure of the things of the Temple, which are in Heaven.
And now, the most important thing here is that Christ
is the Priest, the High Priest of the Temple which is in
Heaven; it doesn’t matter that He was not a priest of the
earthly temple; but notice, what was there, in the earthly
temple, represented the heavenly Temple. And the high priest
of the earthly temple, Aaron and other high priests who came
after, were a type and figure of the High Priest of the Temple
which is in Heaven. And all other priests were a type and
figure of all God’s sons and daughters, of the Christians, who
are priests of God, and who are also kings, to reign with
Christ in the Millennial Kingdom.
And until that glorious Millennial Kingdom comes,
well, we reign spiritually; and we also minister spiritually in
that Temple of Heaven, offering to God offerings and
sacrifices of worship, and songs, and living lives that please
God. Those are offerings that are presented before Heaven,
they are presented before the Temple which is in Heaven by
the priests of the Order of Melchizedek.
But the High Priest, who deals with the Sacrifice, the
Blood of the Atonement, and everything that is carried out
there in the Holy of Holies, that High Priest is our beloved
Lord Jesus Christ; and what the high priest did (in the temple
Moses built and the temple Solomon built) on the Day of
Atonement, by bringing the atoning blood into the holy of
holies and putting it on the mercy seat, between the two
cherubims of gold, is what Christ has been doing there in6 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
Heaven by taking His own Blood. As the High Priest, He took
His own Blood of His own Sacrifice to make intercession for
all of God’s elect, for all the heavenly Israel, which is the
Church of Jesus Christ, whose names are written (where?) in
the Lamb’s Book of Life in Heaven.
And now, we can see that Christ has been making
intercession in Heaven throughout all this time that has
passed; He is still there, making intercession, until the very
last elect of God comes in and all of God’s sons and
daughters are reconciled, in other words, all the heavenly
Israel, all the heavenly seed of Abraham; just like all the
Hebrew people, the earthly seed of Abraham, were reconciled
on the tenth day of the seventh month of each year, and on
that tenth day of the seventh month of each year is when that
work was carried out.
But on the tenth day of the seventh month of the
fiftieth year, something (additional) happened that did not
happen the other previous years: it was that the deliverance of
the land, of the inheritance of the children of Israel, also took
place. If they had sold their property, it was released back into
their possession, if they had lost it because of a debt and it
was taken away from them, it had to be returned on the
day—the year of jubilee. When the trumpet of the jubilee
sounded, liberty was proclaimed, and everything went back to
its original owner; and if someone had lost a son or daughter
because he owed a debt and one of his children was taken…
That is what was going to happen to a widow woman
on one occasion. That was in the case of Elisha’s time (right,
Miguel?), when creditors were going to take the two sons of a
widow woman, who had only those two sons; but since she
had a debt, as a payment they were going to take her sons to
serve that person or those people whom she owed; or perhaps
it was the husband who had that debt, and when he died the
debt was outstanding, and the woman had to face thatTHE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 7
situation.
Now, the Prophet Elisha says to her: “What do you
have in your house?” She says: “Well, the only thing I have is
a little oil in the house.” ¯“Well, go get lots of empty
vessels, and fill them, and go into the house with your sons
and shut the door, and start filling up vessels.”1
Now notice, with that pot of oil that she had, she
began to fill up larger vessels, and it would not run out: that
portion of oil in the pot that she had in her house was
multiplied; and the oil is a type (of what?) of the Holy Spirit,
which never runs dry, never runs out.
And now, notice, when she finishes filling up all the
empty vessels she had in her house, she goes to the Prophet
Elisha and tells him: “I have already filled all the empty
vessels I had.” He tells her: “Well go and get empty vessels
from your neighbors, and go into the house again and start to
fill them up.” And they filled up all the vessels; and then they
go to the Prophet Elisha, they tell him: “Well, we have filled
up everything that was empty.”
And that is what God does: He fills empty vessels; He
fills them with the Oil of His Holy Spirit by the spoken Word
of God. In other words, by that Word of God that the Prophet
Elisha spoke, the oil then multiplies, in other words, the oil
doesn’t run out (it’s not that it multiplies, it’s that it doesn’t
run out). And He continues to fill empty vessels.
And that is what He has always done: from age to
age He has been filling the empty vessels of the Church of
Jesus Christ, meaning, the members of the Church of Jesus
Christ, the people whose names are written in the Lamb’s
Book of Life; and when the empty vessels of the seven ages
or stages of the Gentile Church have run out, well, He has
empty vessels that He fills at the Last Day: sons and
1 2 Kings 4:1-78 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
daughters of God; and then He will work with the Hebrew
people.
Now, notice, the Prophet Elisha, who is the second
Elijah, notice, then he tells the widow woman, he tells her:
“Now go, sell all that oil; and live off the rest; and pay your
debt,” in other words: “Sell all that oil in those vessels, pay
the debt with the payment you receive, and use the rest to
live.” In other words, they would have more than enough,
because if he told them “the rest,” that is because they would
have more than enough.
And now, notice how God worked at that time with
the Prophet Elisha, because all of this happened by the
creative Word of God in the mouth of the second Elijah.
And now, notice how all of this is a type and figure of
what God would be doing from age to age, from stage to
stage, up to this end time in which we live; and also with one
hundred and forty-four thousand Hebrews.
And now let’s go to the temple again. The things that
were in the temple Moses built and the temple Solomon built
are a type and figure of the things of the Temple which is in
Heaven, and they are a type and figure (the temple Moses
built) of the Church of the Lord Jesus Christ.
And now, notice, God’s Temple in Heaven is typified
or represented in the temple Moses built and the temple
Solomon built; and It is materialized in human beings,
because God created the human being to be a temple of God.
Saint Paul says: “Know ye not that ye are the Temple
of God, and that the Spirit of God dwelleth in you?” That is
why he says: “He who destroys the temple of God will be
destroyed by God.”2 That is why all those who have
persecuted the members of the Church of Jesus Christ from
stage to stage, from age to age, have the sentence to be
2 1 Corinthians 3:16-17THE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 9
destroyed: nations, peoples and tongues, and individuals too.
Anyone may say: “But those people already died, the
ones who persecuted the Church of Jesus Christ in past ages.”
But they have to stand before God on Judgment Day, and
there they will be condemned and cast into the lake of fire,
and there they will be destroyed.
And now, those who persecute the Church of Jesus
Christ at the Last Day (nations, peoples, and tongues, and
also individuals), if they don’t die before the Great
Tribulation and they have to go through the Great
Tribulation, then they will receive the Divine Judgment of the
Great Tribulation; but they will also stand before the White
Throne—before Jesus Christ—to be judged, and there they
will also receive condemnation.
So there is no way for those who destroy the Temple
of God, the Church of Jesus Christ, to escape the wrath of
God, the Divine Judgment.
Now, we find that the Temple of God as human beings
has an Outer Court, a Holy Place, and a Holy of Holies. The
Holy Place and the Holy of Holies are the most important
ones; of course, the most important one is the Holy of Holies.
Now, the Outer Court is from the time of Adam to the
time of Jesus Christ. That is why the believers in God of the
Old Testament belong to the Outer Court of the House of
God; and that is why throughout the history of the Hebrew
people, we find the ministry of Moses, and it says that he was
faithful, where? In the House of God.
Now, in which part of the House of God? In the House
of God as… since human beings are a Temple of God, well,
he was faithful in the Outer Court of the House of God. Even
though in the literal temple that he built back then, he was
where? He was in the outer court, then he also went into the
holy place, and he went into the holy of holies—just like the
ministry of Aaron, the ministry of the high priest: he was in1
the outer court, he was in the holy place, and in the holy of
holies. Those are the ministries that we find there, which
minister in the outer court, in the holy place, and in the holy
of holies, in the temple that Moses built.
In the time of the temple that Solomon built, well,
Moses was not there, therefore, only the high priest went into
the holy of holies. But notice, the ministry of Moses and the
ministry of Aaron were ministries for the outer court, the holy
place, and the holy of holies.
Then we also find that later on the ministry of the
Prophet Elijah appeared, and he ministered (where?) in the
House of God too, in the Outer Court of the House of God;
because the Outer Court is from the time of Adam to Jesus
Christ.
And then we find that, in the Coming of Christ, Jesus
Christ was in the House of God, in the Outer Court of the
House of God; therefore, the Sacrifice of Christ was carried
out in the Outer Court of the House of God, in that stage of
God’s Temple as a human race.
And then we find that the stages of the Church of
Jesus Christ that pertain to the Holy Place began; and that is
from the day of Pentecost to this end time, from the day of
Pentecost to the time of the ministry of the Angel of the Lord
Jesus Christ.
And that is why in the Holy Place of the Temple of
God, the ministry of Elijah went from the Outer Court to the
Holy Place.
And the ministry of Jesus went from the Outer Court
to the Holy Place as well. Why? Because in the ministry of
Jesus Christ, in the ministry of the Angel of the Covenant
(who is the One that has ministries and is the One that has
been building that Temple out of human beings), He is the
One who ministers in the Outer Court, in the Holy Place, and
in the Holy of Holies; and He is the One who put the ministryTHE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 11
in Moses and also in Aaron and also in Elijah the Tishbite.
And now, since the Angel of the Covenant is doing the
Work of the Holy Place, well, He must put the relevant
ministries there, which are the ministries of the seven Eyes of
the Lord which run to and fro through the whole Earth,3 the
ministries of the seven angels of Christ, which are the seven
messengers for the seven stages or ages of the Gentile
Church.
And now, in one of the messengers, the ministry of
Elijah goes into the Holy Place of the spiritual Temple of
Christ. It could go there in any of the messengers; because the
One who has and gives ministries is the Angel of the
Covenant, which is Jesus Christ Himself in Holy Spirit; but
notice, He had that ministry of the fourth Elijah reserved for
the seventh angel-messenger.
Now, the ministry of Elijah ministered in the Outer
Court: in Elijah the Tishbite, in Elisha, and in John the
Baptist; and now in the Holy Place it ministers in the seventh
angel-messenger; but that ministry of Elijah is promised to
minister for the fifth time;4 and there is no more room to
minister in the other ages; therefore, it will minister in the
Age of the Cornerstone, which is the Age of the Holy of
Holies of the spiritual Temple of Christ. And it comes to
fulfill the ministry of one of the Two Olive Trees, which
pertain to the Holy of Holies of the spiritual Temple of
Christ.
And the ministry of Moses, notice, also goes into the
Holy of Holies of the spiritual Temple of Christ, as one of the
Two Olive Trees.
And the ministry of Jesus—who was in the Outer
3 Zechariah 4:10; Revelation 5:6
4 The Revelation Of The Seven Seals, page 359, paragraphs
315 to 32012 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
Court in His First Coming, and then in Holy Spirit from age
to age He was manifested through the seven angelmessengers—goes into the Holy of Holies of His spiritual
Temple through the ministry that He manifests in His AngelMessenger at the Last Day, in whom He will be operating the
ministry of Moses for the second time, the ministry of Elijah
for the fifth time, and the ministry of Jesus for the second
time.
Now notice how all the Work that God does—where
does He do It? In His Temple. And that is why that is the
House of God, where God dwells, and where God manifests
Himself, and where God meets with His children.
Where do parents meet with their children? Well, in
their home; that is where the children in a family are gathered,
and that is where they are raised, and that is where they are
fed. They are given breakfast, they are given their midday
meal (lunch), and they are given dinner too, when they are
children.
And when they get older, sometimes they go out to
work, but before they go, they eat breakfast. And sometimes
they don’t like to go out for lunch, and they come to eat lunch
(if they are nearby, they come to eat lunch); or they take their
lunch in their lunchbox or in their… how would you call it?
Or in a thermos, or they take it somehow, and take food from
home; because they say: “It’s better to eat homemade food
because this food is good for me. Out there, if I eat food made
outside, maybe I won’t like it. Maybe they will add other
seasonings and other things to it, and that might be bad for
me; and it will affect me in the work I will be doing.”
So, for lunch, many take food already prepared from
home; and then they return home from work, and gather with
their family again at their house (the family’s house), and they
all eat there at dinnertime.THE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 13
And that is how it is in the House of God. And from
age to age, Christ has put faithful and wise servants in His
House. What for? To give them the Food, the portion of the
Word of God; because “man shall not live by bread alone, but
by every word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.”5
Now, that is the House where God meets with His
children from age to age. And when it’s time to eat, at
dinnertime, our Heavenly Father is there, manifested through
the messenger of each age, to whom He gives the spiritual
Food, and he gives It out; because all that Work is carried out
by Christ Himself through the messenger of each age.
And now, at the Last Day, at dinnertime for the
Church of Jesus Christ: “Who is the Faithful and Wise
Servant, whom his Lord has made ruler over His Household,
to give them Food in due season? Blessed is that Servant,
whom his Lord, when He comes, shall find so doing. Verily I
say unto you, that He shall make him ruler over all His
goods,”6 in other words, He will make him the Administrator
of His goods.
Therefore, the goods of Christ in His Church will be
administered by the Faithful and Wise Servant who will be
present at the end time; and the things that Christ has
promised to carry out, we will be seeing them carried out by
Christ through His Angel-Messenger.
Some may say: “But Christ is the One who should be
doing these things, so why is the Angel of Jesus Christ doing
them?” Because he is the instrument of the Lord Jesus Christ,
whom his Lord put in His House.
Remember that in His House, in His Church, is where
He puts him: He gives him the spiritual Food of the hidden
Manna: of the revelation of the Second Coming of Christ, so
5 Matthew 4:4; Luke 4:4; Deuteronomy 8:3
6 Matthew 24:45-4714 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
that he may give out that spiritual Food of the Word of
God to all the children of God; so that they receive the faith,
the revelation, to be changed and raptured and taken to the
House of our Heavenly Father.
Without that revelation, which is the spiritual Food for
the Last Day, which is the hidden Manna for the Last Day, no
one can be changed and raptured and taken to the House of
our Heavenly Father—no one, because they will not be seeing
nor understanding nor receiving the Second Coming of
Christ.
And only those who will be alive and receive, see and
receive, the Second Coming of Christ as the Lion of the tribe
of Judah, are the ones who will be changed and taken to the
House of our Heavenly Father. They are the ones who will be
hearing the Trumpet of God or Great Voice of Trumpet,
which is the Voice of Christ making known to us all these
things which must shortly be done, at this end time. It is the
Great Voice of the Gospel of the Kingdom, which 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.
Where? In which part of the House of God? In the
most important part: in the Holy of Holies of the House of
God, which is the Age of the Cornerstone; that is where the
gathering of God’s elect of the Last Day is carried out, just
like the gathering of God’s elect of each age was carried out
in each age.
And there was a territory where each one of the ages
was fulfilled; therefore, there is a territory where the Age of
the Cornerstone will be fulfilled. And which is that territory?
Well, Latin America and the Caribbean; just like the territory
for the fulfillment of the seventh age of the Gentile Church
was North America.
And now, notice how all these things that are beingTHE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 15
manifested in the Temple of God cannot be understood by the
people who are not in the Temple of God; because that is for
the ones who will be living in the House of God, in the
Temple of God. Those who lived outside the Temple of God
in past ages were not able to understand them, and those who
live outside the Temple of God at this end time will not be
able to understand them either.
That is why God’s elect are called and gathered
(where?) in the Temple of God, in the House of God, in the
age in which they are given to live. That is where Christ
meets with His children from age to age; and notice, that is
where the First Coming of Christ was fulfilled, and the
coming of each theophany of a prophet, each spirit of a
prophet that God sent to His people, was fulfilled: it was in
the House of God.
And now, we can see that the House of God is the
Church of the Lord Jesus Christ at this time in which we are
living, which is going through the different stages during the
seven ages of the Gentile Church; and at this end time, It goes
on to the stage of the Age of the Cornerstone, where It goes
through seven phases or stages of the Church of Jesus Christ,
and then we step into eternity physically as well.
We are living in the Eternal Age of the Church of
Jesus Christ, it is an age that will never end. In this age, we
will go into the Millennial Kingdom; and in this age, we will
also go into eternity, and we will continue in this age, the
Eternal Age of the Church of Jesus Christ, which is the Age
of the Cornerstone, the Age of the Holy of Holies.
And now, we can see that everything that is in the
Holy of Holies of the Temple of God in Heaven is what will
be materialized in the Age of the Cornerstone, which is the
Age of the Holy of Holies of the spiritual Temple of Christ;
just like what was in the holy of holies of the temple Moses16 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
built and the temple Solomon built represented what is in
Heaven, in the Holy of Holies of the Temple of God.
Now we can see, for example, God sitting on the
Throne, in the Temple which is in Heaven, in His Throne
there, in the Holy of Holies—we can see it represented in the
holy of holies of the temple Moses built and the temple
Solomon built, there on the mercy seat, between the two
cherubims of gold. The Shekinah was there, the glory of God
was manifested there in that Light of the Shekinah; because
that is His throne in the tabernacle Moses built and in the
temple Solomon built.
And now, God has a new Temple here on Earth, which
represents the Temple of God which is in Heaven.
And now, notice how from Adam to Christ, those who
lived at that time lived in the stage of the Outer Court of the
House of God. That is why those of the Holy Place are greater
than those of the Outer Court: because those of the Holy
Place are sons and daughters of God; those of the Outer Court
are the servants of God.
But now Jesus Christ, the Son of God, appeared to
carry out the other stages of the Temple of God as human
beings or [made] out of human beings.
And now, who is the One that builds that Temple?
God, Jesus Christ our Savior. He is the One who builds the
Temple of God, the Temple of God built (out of what?) out of
human beings; because God has made the human being so
that He may dwell in him.
Therefore, the human being is a temple in which God
will dwell in all His fullness, but for that to happen, the
human being must be redeemed (and that is why Christ came:
to carry out the Work of Redemption); and the human being
must accept the Work of Redemption, receive It: receive
Christ as his Redeemer and wash away his sins in the Blood
of Christ, in order to be restored and come into God’sTHE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 17
Program and come into the House of God; because one
cannot come into the House of God without going through the
Sacrifice of Christ.
In other words, he has to go through the Outer Court
(which was fulfilled back in the time of Jesus), he has to go
through that stage; and then go into the stage of the Holy
Place; so that those who live at this end time may then have
the opportunity to go into the stage of the Holy of Holies.
And now, the people who belong to the Holy of Holies
of the Temple of God have the greatest blessing, the greatest
privilege and the greatest benefits of the Kingdom of God
because they belong to the Throne of the Temple of God here
on Earth, in other words, they belong to the Throne of that
spiritual Temple of Jesus Christ; they belong to that Age of
the Holy of Holies, where Christ would establish all the
things that are in the Holy of Holies there in Heaven: where
God’s Throne is, where God is sitting on His Throne, and
where the little Book of the Seven Seals is (at the right hand
of God); and It is closed there.
But in the House of God, in the Church of Jesus
Christ, in the Holy of Holies of His spiritual Temple, at the
Last Day, that little Book will be open; because Christ brings
It from the Throne of God, from Heaven, to His Church, to
the Age of the Cornerstone, which is the Age of the Holy of
Holies, so that He may put It there on His Throne, and have It
there in His Church.
And that is why after Christ finishes His Work in
Heaven, in the Temple of God in Heaven: He will finish His
Work of Intercession in Heaven, but His Temple will already
be built; and that Temple will be dedicated to God; and God
will dwell in all His fullness in that Temple, which is His
Church, His people; and He will be manifested in which part
of the Temple? In the Holy of Holies of that spiritual Temple,18 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
from among the Two Cherubims, in other words, from among
the ministries of Moses and Elijah.
Among the ministries of Moses and Elijah, there will
be the manifestation of the ministry of Jesus for the second
time, where—once Christ has finished His Work of
Intercession in Heaven, and He manifests Himself, and makes
His claim for everything He has redeemed with His precious
Blood, and raises the dead in Christ, and changes us who are
alive—the fullness of the Spirit of God will be manifested in
His Church; where we will obtain, in addition to the
theophanic body that we have obtained by believing in Christ
as our Savior and washing away our sins in the Blood of
Christ and receiving His Holy Spirit: then, at this end time,
we will also receive the eternal and glorified physical body
just like the Body of our beloved Lord Jesus Christ.
And the glory of this House, the House of Jesus
Christ, the Temple of Jesus Christ, will be greater than the
glory of the temple of Moses and the temple of Solomon.7
Those temples no longer exist, therefore, that glory was
temporary, passing, but the glory of the Temple of Jesus
Christ, of His Church, will be for all eternity.
Jesus Christ in Holy Spirit, manifested in all His
fullness, will dwell in that Temple; and He will be with His
Church in the Marriage Supper of the Lamb and in the
glorious Millennial Kingdom, and throughout all eternity.
And now, notice something very important. The same
thing that Christ receives from the Father… When He
ascended, in other words, when He went up to Heaven, to the
Temple of God in Heaven, and entered the Holy of Holies,
what He received in Heaven…
Notice, He received authority and dominion over all
things in Heaven and in Earth; He said: “All power is given
7 Haggai 2:9THE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 19
unto Me in Heaven and in Earth.”8
And now, notice what Christ does. Since Christ
ascended to Heaven, notice, He has been leading, carrying out
all the business of the Heavenly Father, throughout all these
stages of the Church; not only the affairs of His Church, but
of the whole universe; because everything is subject to our
beloved Lord Jesus Christ. He is far above all principality,
power, and dominion, because He is the King of the Heavens
and the Earth.
By being put on God’s Throne in Heaven, well, what
happens? What takes place? Well, He is made King, and He
is King of kings and Lord of lords, and He rules the whole
universe.
And now, notice what Christ promises in Revelation
chapter 2, verses 26 to 29. He says:
“And he that overcometh, and keepeth my works
unto the end, to him will I give power over the nations:
And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the
vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I
received of my Father.”
Now you will see, through these promises, that the
same thing the Father did with Jesus: put Him on His Throne
of the Temple which is in Heaven, and give Him all power
over all the nations, peoples, and tongues, and give Him
power over all creation… “All power is given unto Me in
Heaven and (where else?) in Earth too.”
And now, just as Christ received that authority in
Heaven and that power in Heaven, this is the same thing He
does with the Overcomer, who will be present at the Last
Day, and who will be keeping the works of Christ until the
end.
And now, we find that none of the seven angel-
8 Matthew 28:1820 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
messengers of the seven ages received that power over the
nations, peoples, and tongues; but now one Man will receive
it, he will receive that power over the nations. That will be
the Messenger who overcomes, who is living at the Last Day;
and there will only be one, and he will be the Messenger of
the Age of the Cornerstone. He is the one who will receive all
that authority, because he is the one who will be adopted
alive at the Last Day. The rest already departed, they were not
adopted alive, therefore, they did not receive that authority. In
other words, this promise here speaks of adoption.
And that is also why the promise of Christ: “Him that
overcomes will I make a pillar in the Temple of My God, and
I will write upon him the Name of My God, and the Name of
the City of My God, which is new Jerusalem, which comes
down out of Heaven from My God; and I will write upon him
my new Name.”9
Notice, when Jesus Christ overcame and ascended
to Heaven, He received a new Name. That is what the
forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ tells us in the
message The Revelation Of The Seven Seals, on pages 151 to
152 [paragraphs 283-285]. Let’s read it here as he says it. He
says:
“And, Jesus, His Name on earth was ‘Redeemer,’
Jesus. When He was on earth, He was the Redeemer, that’s
true. But when He conquered death and hell, and overcome
them, and ascended on High, He received a new Name.
That’s the reason you holler the way they do, and they don’t
get nothing.
It’ll be revealed in the Thunders. Uh-huh. See? Notice
the mysteries. He is coming, riding…There’s got to be
Something to change this Church. You know that. There’s got
to be Something. Notice, ‘No man knowed, but Himself.’ Now,
9 Revelation 3:12THE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 21
notice, ‘No man knowed, but Hisself.’
And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood:
and his name was called The Word of God.”
In other words, is it the Coming of the Word to Earth
again. And when the Word came two thousand years ago, He
came in human flesh, in a veil of flesh called Jesus; and He
came as the Lamb of God, to carry out the Work of
Redemption on Calvary’s Cross; and He came with the Name
of Redemption (because Jesus means “Savior” or
“Redeemer”). He goes on to say:
“Oh, my! Notice!
And the armies which were in heaven followed him
upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.
And out of his mouth goes a sharp sword, that with it
he should smite the nations,” (that is the same rod of iron that
Christ promises in Revelation chapter 2, verses 26 to 28),
“and he shall rule them with a rod of iron…”
Now notice, here it says that He is the white-horse
Rider of Revelation 19, who rules all the nations (with what?)
with a rod of iron. And in Revelation chapter 2, verse 26, it
says—referring to the Overcomer, it says:
“...To him will I give power over the nations:
And he shall rule them with a rod of iron; as the
vessels of a potter shall they be broken to shivers: even as I
received of my Father.”
And here in Revelation 19, it says:
“And he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he
tread the winepress of the fierceness and the wrath of
Almighty God.”
That is where it is fulfilled that as the vessels of a
potter shall they be broken to shivers. And he says:
“And he had on his vesture and on his thigh a name
written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.” He22 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
comes as King of kings and Lord of lords.
(Revelation 19:13-16.)
“There comes the Messiah. There He is.”
And now, let’s see what this is. We have already seen
that it is the Coming of the white-horse Rider of Revelation
19 with (what?) a new Name, a Name that no man
understood. On page 318 [paragraph 391] of the Book The
Revelation Of The Seven Seals, while he was praying, the
forerunner of the Second Coming of Christ, Rev. William
Branham, said:
“…May the Holy Spirit come down now, the whitehorse Rider, while His Spirit, Spirit of Christ, in the face of
antichrist, and call His Own.”
The white-horse Rider of Revelation 19 is the Holy
Spirit, the Angel of the Covenant.
And now, how will He come at the Last Day? It says
on page 295 [paragraph 196] of the Book The Revelation Of
The Seven Seals:
“But when our Lord appears here on earth, He’ll be
riding on a snow-white horse. And He’ll be completely, fully,
the Emmanuel, the Word of God incarnate in a Man.”
It is the Coming of the Word, coming in human flesh
in a Man at the Last Day, a Man of the end time, a Man of
this end time. That is the Coming of the white-horse Rider of
Revelation 19.
Now, the veil of flesh in which He will come is not the
Lord Jesus Christ. That was another veil of flesh that He had
in His Second Coming two thousand years ago, among the
Hebrew people, when the Word—the Angel of the Covenant,
which is the Word; the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob,
which is the Word—was made flesh and dwelt among the
Hebrew people, and carried out the Work of Redemption on
Calvary’s Cross; and He had the Name of Redemption: Jesus
or Yoshua, which means “Savior” or “Redeemer.” But at theTHE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 23
Last Day, the Holy Spirit would come manifested in human
flesh in a Man of this end time in the House of God; he must
be a member of the House of God.
The Word made flesh came in the House of God
because in the House of God is where the Word, the Angel of
the Covenant, was manifested from Adam to Jesus. And from
Jesus to this time, the Word, the Angel of the Covenant, has
been manifested in Holy Spirit, from age to age, in the
messenger of each age. And at the Last Day, in the Age of the
Cornerstone, the Angel of the Covenant comes in human flesh
in His Angel-Messenger, making known to us all these things
which must shortly come to pass; and thus, preparing us to be
changed and taken to the House of our Heavenly Father, to
Heaven, at this end time.
Now, the Angel is only the instrument of Christ, of the
Angel of the Covenant, of the God of Abraham, Isaac, and
Jacob. That is why he did not accept the worship that John
offered him10: because he is a prophet, the Prophet of the
Dispensation of the Kingdom.
It is the first time that Jesus Christ sends His Church a
dispensational prophet with a dispensational Message.
Whenever God sends a prophet, he must come with a
Message; because He will not send a prophet to His Church
to be a tourist; He sends him to work in the House of God.
Now, we are not here on Earth as tourists, we are here
to be in the House of God and to be taking our position and to
be working in the House of God.
Whoever does not understand these things is here on
Earth as a tourist and does not know why he came, and what
he does is waste his time—like tourists do sometimes:
looking over here, looking at antiquities, looking at that over
there, and saying: “Wow, how great is this here.” But actually
10 Revelation 19:9-10, 22:8-924 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
they are just passing the time, spending time. For them it’s a
time to wander around doing nothing, because they took a
vacation and stopped working, and now they are going to
spend a few days like that, touring in another country, seeing
certain things.
And that is what happens to those who come to this
Earth and don’t know why they have come here and don't
take the right position in the House of God, as part of God’s
Family. They are here on Earth caught up in different things:
their jobs and their businesses, and making money, and they
say, “Wow, how great: this year I earned this much money,
and by next year I plan to earn more.” They are impressed by
such simple things.
“For what is a man profited, if he shall gain the whole
world, and lose his own soul?”11 It has been of no use: he has
been on this Earth as a tourist, wasting his time and wasting
his life, instead of making good use of it to have Eternal Life.
Now, let’s continue reading here in chapter 3, verse
12, of Revelation, where it says:
“Him that overcometh will I make a pillar,” (where?),
“in the temple,” (of whom?), “of my God…”
And that Temple of our God here on Earth is which
Temple? The Church of the Lord Jesus Christ; therefore, he
will have an important position in the Church of Jesus Christ,
which is represented in the Temple which is in Heaven. In
other words, the position he will have here on Earth
represents the position he has in Heaven, in the Temple of
God.
“...And I will write upon him the name of my God, and
the name of the city of my God, which is new Jerusalem,
which cometh down out of heaven from my God: and I will
write upon him my new name.”
11 Matthew 16:26; Mark 8:36; Luke 9:25THE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 25
Now, there are people who don’t know that Jesus
Christ has a new Name; but He says so Himself. And if He
says so, then it’s the truth. When did He receive It? When He
ascended victorious to Heaven, and sat on the Throne of God
in Heaven, and was given power and authority and dominion
over all things: in Heaven and on Earth; and He was made the
Administrator of all God’s business.
But now, Christ says: “To him that overcometh will I
grant to sit with Me,” (where?), “in My Throne, even as I also
overcame, and am set down with My Father in His Throne.”12
Now notice, He promises to give him power over all
the nations, so that he may rule them with a rod of iron, and
break to pieces—he will also break to pieces the nations that
must be broken to pieces; and it also says that He will write
upon him the Name of our God, and the Name of the City of
our God, and His new Name; and now He says He will seat
him on His Throne.
Notice, for Christ to receive authority in Heaven and
on Earth, and receive a new Name, He was seated on God’s
Throne in Heaven.
And now, we have the promise of Christ here: “To him
that overcometh will I grant to sit with Me in My Throne.”
Now, the Throne of the Father is God’s Throne in
Heaven, in God’s Temple in Heaven; but now the Throne of
Jesus Christ is the Throne of David, where He will sit and
reign for a thousand years over the Hebrew people and over
all the nations; that is the Throne of Christ for the glorious
Millennial Kingdom, on this Earth.
And in the Church of Jesus Christ we have the Age of
the Throne, which is the Age of the Cornerstone, where we
also have the Throne where Jesus Christ will be manifested at
the Last Day.
12 Revelation 3:2126 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
And notice, since the Church of Jesus Christ is
representative of—is the One that represents God’s Temple in
Heaven, She has the same thing that God’s Temple in Heaven
has; but now, this is the Temple of our beloved Lord Jesus
Christ. Just as God has the Temple in Heaven, now Jesus
Christ has built His Temple, His Church, His House.
And at the Last Day, the creation of the Holy of Holies
of the spiritual Temple is carried out, and the creation of
everything that is in Heaven, materialized in human beings, is
carried out. Therefore, Christ will sit on His Throne; but the
Throne of Jesus Christ in His Church will not be made out of
literal stones, rather, it will be a human throne.
And then, in the Millennial Kingdom, the Throne will
be the Throne of David, where Christ will sit; and the
Overcomer with Him.
And everything in the Holy of Holies of the spiritual
Temple of Christ will be related to the administration of the
Kingdom of Christ there in the Millennial Kingdom. And
everything that will be spoken by Christ from His Throne,
notice, will be transmitted to the human race; and He will
transmit everything He will speak from His Throne through
His Angel-Messenger; and what will be spoken is what God
has transmitted from His Throne in Heaven to Christ, to the
Throne of David, and from there it will go on to the human
race.
And in order to transmit His Message directly from the
Throne, there are God’s elect of this end time and God’s elect
of the rest of the ages, who will spread the Message through
all the nations; and the one hundred and forty-four thousand
Hebrews too. In other words, there will be a very important
work during the Millennial Kingdom.
The laws for the Hebrew people and for all nations
will come from where? From the Throne of the Lord Jesus
Christ; because He will receive them from God’s Throne inTHE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 27
Heaven. That is why out of Jerusalem, the Law will go forth;
the Law will go forth out of Jerusalem. It says: “Out of Zion
shall go forth the Law, and the Word of God from
Jerusalem,”13 because what will be there? The Throne of the
Son of David, the Throne of David restored, and Christ on
His Throne, and the Overcomer with Christ on His Throne.
Now, we will be there with Christ as kings and priests,
because we belong to the Temple of Jesus Christ, which
represents God’s Temple in Heaven; and the priestly Order
and the Order of those kings is the Order of Melchizedek.
And it seems like we need to stop there, because, what
is today’s subject? Let’s look for it here. “THE MYSTERY
OF GOD’S TABERNACLE.”
We already spoke of the Outer Court, the Holy Place,
and the Holy of Holies; but the details inside that Temple…
we have spoken of a few, but all I want to say to you is that
just like there is an order, like there was an order in the
temple Moses built and the temple Solomon built, a priestly
order: in the Temple which is in Heaven, there is also a
priestly Order.
And that Order is the one that Jesus belongs to as High
Priest; because He is the Melchizedek who appeared to
Abraham, the Priest of the Most High God and King of
Salem.14
In ancient times, the king was also the priest, in many
nations. For example, in Abraham, Abraham was the head of
his seed; he was the patriarch, in other words, the king of his
people, and he was also the priest, that is why he offered the
sacrifices to God. If he were not the priest, he would not be
able to offer those sacrifices. Isaac too, and Jacob.
And now, in the Divine Program, notice, Christ is
13 Isaiah 2:3; Micah 4:2
14 Genesis 14:18-2028 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
King and also Priest, of the Order of (whom?) Melchizedek.15
And we belong to that Order, therefore, we are kings and also
priests.
And that is the priestly Order, and the Order of (is it
the Monarchy?) The monarchical Order that the Kingdom of
the Messiah, the Millennial Kingdom, will have… [Brother
Miguel says, “The Dynasty.”—Ed.] The Dynasty. In other
words, the Order of the Dynasty of that Kingdom is the Order
of Melchizedek; and the priestly Order is the Order of
Melchizedek; therefore, they must be descendants of
Melchizedek. And being descendants of Melchizedek means
being descendants of Christ through the new birth.
Now, notice, we won’t have the temple of Solomon or
the temple of Moses anymore, but we will have the Temple of
the Lord Jesus Christ; and in that Temple is where there will
be ministering here on Earth during the Millennial Kingdom;
and God’s elect belong in that Temple and to that Temple, as
kings and priests.
That is why everything related to the earthly
Government of the Messiah, in other words, the political
aspect and also the religious aspect, will be led by Christ as
High Priest and King, and by the members of the Church of
Jesus Christ as kings and priests.
And now, there is something very important there.
If we have a subject around here that is related to that,
we will leave it for that occasion; if not, we will give it to you
tonight or touch on it briefly. Let’s see where I have…
Here we have the order of the subjects. We have:
“THE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE,” that is
tonight’s subject
“THE MYSTERY OF THE BRAZEN ALTAR,” that one is
for tomorrow
15 Hebrews 5:5-10, 6:20, 7:15-17, 7:20-21; Psalms 110:4THE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 29
“THE MYSTERY OF THE OUTER COURT OF THE
TABERNACLE,” that is for tomorrow as well
“THE MYSTERY OF THE OIL FOR THE LAMPS,” that is
for the day after tomorrow
And, “THE HIGH PRIEST AND HIS GARMENTS”
It seems like we have to leave this for day six, because
it’s related to the High Priest.
I will only give you a little taste, because this… well,
this… this morning… When did we finish the ministers’
service? After that, when I went up to my room, that was
when I received It; and I will just give you a little taste:
Just like there were priests ministering in the
tabernacle Moses built and in the tabernacle Solomon built,
likewise, notice, Christ has been ministering in the Temple in
Heaven.
And now, in the Temple that will be here on Earth,
which is the Church of Jesus Christ, notice, we are priests of
that Temple and in that Temple. The angel-messengers have
also ministered in that Temple, having a higher position than
the rest of the people.
And now, in that Temple, the works that were carried
out in the tabernacle of Moses and the temple of Solomon
will also be carried out. Do you know what that means for us?
That we will be working under that ministry of priests and
also of kings.
Now, only one person ministered in the holy of holies.
Now, in the Holy Place, notice, seven angelmessengers ministered with the group that helped them in
each age; but the ministry was only in the angel-messenger of
each age.
And for the Age of the Cornerstone, the ministry will
only be in one: in the manifestation of Jesus Christ, of the
Angel of the Covenant, of the Angel of the Lord, of the Holy30 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
Spirit through His Angel-Messenger; he is the only one who
will minister. None of the seven angel-messengers was able to
minister in the Holy of Holies of the spiritual Temple of
Christ.
Therefore, during the Millennial Kingdom, in the Holy
of Holies of that spiritual Temple, the same One who will
have ministered in the Holy of Holies of the spiritual Temple
of Christ in the Age of the Cornerstone, will minister there.
He will get the ministry of the Holy of Holies for the
Millennial Kingdom in the spiritual Temple of Christ.
And from there, communication, contact will be
established with God’s Temple, with the Holy of Holies of
God’s Temple, with God; in other words, just as it was done
in the tabernacle Moses built and the temple Solomon built.
So, for all of us, the blessing is greater than we imagined.
Christ ministered, He has ministered and He is
ministering as High Priest of the Temple which is in Heaven.
He is the High Priest of the Temple which is in Heaven
During the Millennial Kingdom, there will be
ministering from the Holy of Holies of the spiritual Temple of
Christ, and in this time as well: and that has to do with all that
authority and power that Christ will give the Overcomer; and
He will put His Name upon Him.
Notice, the Overcomer… Christ, when He ascended to
Heaven, was given a new Name; and the Overcomer will be
given a new Name at the Last Day.
The Overcomer, when He ascended to Heaven, was
put on God’s Throne in Heaven, and was given authority over
the Heavens and the Earth. And the one who will sit with
Christ in His Throne is the one who receives power over all
the nations, and the one who receives that new Name; that
new Name of Jesus and Eternal Name of God and Name of
the City of our God is written, and It is the same Name: theTHE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 31
Eternal Name of God, the Name of the City of our God, and
the new Name of Jesus Christ, is the Eternal Name of
God.
And now, notice how the Overcomer, who will sit on
the Throne with Christ, will be granted that blessing;
therefore, he will have the blessing of the Holy of Holies and
everything that being in that Holy of Holies entails; that is
why He will make him ruler over all His goods. In other
words, that refers to the physical and spiritual goods, meaning
that it is a complete blessing; and Christ will be using him in
His whole Program pertaining to the Millennial Kingdom.
And since we belong to the Holy of Holies of the
spiritual Temple of Christ, well, that Holy of Holies as an age
is being built out of human beings, out of living stones, out of
sons and daughters of God of the Last Day.
Therefore, we will be there in that Millennial
Kingdom, participating in all those blessings. In other words,
we will have the position that is closest to the Throne of
Christ; we will have the position that is closest to everything
that will be received from the Throne of God to the Throne of
Christ here on Earth in the Millennial Kingdom.
Well, from what I have spoken to you, I think it has
been like an introduction to what (was it in the last message,
Miguel? Let’s see), to what we will have in the last
message… where it says, “THE HIGH PRIEST AND HIS
GARMENTS.”
All these last subjects have been related to the Temple
of God. Notice, at least these last ones. We have:
“THE ANGEL WHO BRINGS US INTO THE PROMISED
LAND.”
“THE MYSTERY OF THE TWO CHERUBIMS.” That was
in Puebla yesterday. “THE MYSTERY OF THE TWO
CHERUBIMS, FROM WHICH GOD SPEAKS TO HIS32 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
PEOPLE.”
Today, since around noon, among the ministers, we
have had:
“THE MYSTERY OF THE THREEFOLD MINISTRY OF
THE ANGEL OF THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.”
And tonight we have had:
“THE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE.”
Tomorrow, we will have:
“THE MYSTERY OF THE BRAZEN ALTAR,” that belongs
to the Outer Court.
“THE MYSTERY OF THE OUTER COURT OF THE
TABERNACLE.”
“THE MYSTERY OF THE OIL FOR THE TWO LAMPS.”
In Zechariah chapter 4, well, the Oil for the Lamps comes
from the Two Olive Trees.
And then:
“THE HIGH PRIEST AND HIS GARMENTS,” because
there has to be a high priest in the Temple of Jesus Christ, just
as there was in the temple of Moses and in the temple of
Solomon, and as there is in the Temple which is in Heaven.
And we are going to stay put there, because from that you
already have enough for today to meditate on the things of
God, and to see that the blessing we have been given at this
Last Day is greater than we imagined. But we are seeing that
the blessing is greater, that is why…
Let’s leave the “that is why,” and continue with it in
the next services; because if I tell you a little bit, then we
have to keep talking.
We have seen “THE MYSTERY OF GOD’S
TABERNACLE,” and we have seen which part of the
construction of that Tabernacle of God (which is the Church
of Jesus Christ), which part of the construction It is in; It is in
the Holy of Holies part, where Jesus Christ ministers, carriesTHE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 33
out the construction of that part of the Temple, through His
Angel-Messenger.
The construction of the Holy of Holies in the House of
God has emerged where it seemed that no construction would
take place.
Some people thought everything had finished at the
seventh angel-messenger. But, could it be possible for God to
have a Temple without a Holy of Holies? Or do you want a
temple in which God doesn’t dwell? Because if it doesn’t
have a holy of holies, then God cannot dwell in that temple.
And that is what the people who have a temple
without a holy of holies will have! A church without the holy
of holies cannot be a house for God to dwell in; because God
will dwell in all His fullness in the Holy of Holies of His
House, which is the Age of the Cornerstone: from among the
ministries of the Two Olive Trees, from among the ministries
of the Two Cherubims of gold, which are the ministries of
Moses and Elijah.
Well, and that is the place that only the High Priest
goes into. And for this end time, just as He went into the Holy
of Holies of the Temple which is in Heaven, and He has
remained there for about two thousand years (plus as much
time as He must still remain there), He will remain in the
Holy of Holies of His spiritual Temple in the Millennium and
throughout eternity.
Now, we can see that there is something very
important… Miguel rightfully said that he thought God would
give us something very important today. And I started to
meditate and ask the Lord about these things. And when He
showed me that just like in the temple of Moses and the
temple of Solomon and the Temple which is in Heaven, God
had a high priest, and He has a High Priest there in the
Temple which is in Heaven: Jesus Christ our Savior, in the34 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
Temple of the Lord Jesus Christ there are also priests and
there will be a High Priest as well.
And that there is the secret and the mystery that He
was speaking to me about today. And I told you: “If we don’t
have a subject where this can be discussed, then I will speak
to you [about it] tonight.” But I think I already told you
almost everything tonight.
So, from what we have spoken, we hope that God then
gives us more; because whenever I give you what God gives
me, then He gives me more about that subject.
So notice, just as Christ is High Priest and King of the
Temple which is in Heaven, and King of the whole universe,
the same thing that Christ has received from the Father in
Heaven, He says He will do so for the Overcomer. And that
will be for the Overcomer of the Age of the Cornerstone and
Dispensation of the Kingdom.
Well, “He will make him ruler over all His goods,”
over all His goods, both in the Kingdom, in the administrative
aspect, and also in the spiritual aspect, in the highest position
in the spiritual aspect and also in (let’s say) the political
aspect (or the aspect that has to do with the Government, the
physical part), and also the religious or spiritual part.
And just like it’s from the capital, from the
government cabinet, that all the laws and the administrative
part of that government come forth for the people and for the
whole government (and the religious part as well: the
religious laws for the nation are also established there), well,
it will be the same way in the Millennial Kingdom.
Now notice, when God established to the Hebrew
people the political laws as well as the earthly laws for the
people and the spiritual or religious aspects, He gave them
through whom? Through a man. That is why Moses is known
as the head and lawgiver; but it was Christ through him. And
likewise, it will be Christ through the Overcomer in theTHE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 35
Millennial Kingdom.
Well, I think that we... God has allowed us to hear a
lot about this. And I think from what we have heard, we are
prepared for what He wants to give us in the next services,
and show us the blessings that He has for us in that Millennial
Kingdom, which will soon be manifested or established on
Earth, where we will be reigning with Christ.
It’s better if Miguel comes, because otherwise, there is
nowhere to stop here; because there is a lot to talk about. And
I think that, from what we have discussed, we have already
understood a lot.
And where was it that God had His Name, Miguel? In
the holy of holies of the temple that was there among the
Hebrew people. That is also how it will be in the Millennial
Kingdom: the Name will be there in the Temple of Jesus
Christ. The only thing is, Jesus Christ says, “I will write the
Name upon the Overcomer.” Therefore, It will be manifested
there.
That is why it says: “In that day shall there be one
Lord, and His Name one;”16 and it also says: “Therefore they
shall all know Me, for I am He that doth speak: behold, it is
I.”17
All those Scriptures that pertain to the Millennial
Kingdom will be fulfilled in that Millennial Kingdom; and
everyone will know the Eternal Name of God and new Name
of the Lord Jesus Christ.
Well, may God bless you all, may God keep you; and
soon may the number of God's elect be complete; and soon
may the dead in Christ rise in eternal bodies and may we who
are alive be changed. In the Eternal Name of the Lord Jesus
Christ. Amen.
16 Zechariah 14:9
17 Isaiah 52:636 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
I leave with us again our beloved friend and brother,
Miguel Bermúdez Marín, to continue.
Well, the blessings that Christ has for you, and for me,
are so great that we can only say there is none like Christ.
With all the many blessings He has for us; and He is already
giving great blessings to all of us!
And what we have obtained from Christ, flesh and
blood did not reveal it to us, but our Heavenly Father. Jesus
Christ our Savior has given us His revelation pertaining to
this Last Day, to the Age of the Cornerstone, to the Church
and in the Church, which is His House, His spiritual Temple.
“There is none like Christ.” And He has promised to
change our bodies and take us to the House of our Heavenly
Father. And He will not fail: He will fulfill it.
“There is none like Christ.” There is no one else like
Him. There is none like whom? Christ.
And now, we are going, walking with Christ, just as
Enoch walked with God, and God took him to the House of
Heaven. And the Prophet Elijah walked with God, and God
took him in a chariot of fire. And Jesus Christ was also caught
up to Heaven, and He went to the House of our Heavenly
Father as High Priest, to make intercession for all those
whose names are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.
And He has promised to raise the dead in Christ, and
change His born-again believers, who, just as those of past
ages have walked with Christ in the age in which they were
given to live, in the manifestation of Christ through the angelmessenger of each age, at this end time, those who will be
walking with Christ, in the Age of the Cornerstone, will be
changed and taken to the House of our Heavenly Father.
The catching away or rapture of Enoch, Elijah, and
Jesus, notice, show us what He will do with each one of you
and also with me, and with the saints of past ages.
And now, walking with Christ, going with Christ, weTHE MYSTERY OF GOD’S TABERNACLE 37
will be changed and taken to the House of our Heavenly
Father.
Notice, while Elijah was walking with Elisha, he was
caught up in a chariot of fire. And now, walking with Christ,
at some point we will be changed and then taken to the House
of our Heavenly Father. In other words, we must be walking
with Christ at this end time, in the age pertaining to the Last
Day.
And now we are walking with Christ in the Age of the
Cornerstone; that is why we know that we will be changed
and taken to the House of our Heavenly Father. But if any of
our own goes beforehand, well, he goes on to rest in Paradise,
to rest from all the earthly works and duties; but they will
return in a new body.
Now, how many of you would like to go to rest in the
House of our Heavenly Father, in the sixth dimension? No
one, because everyone wants to be changed; and that is why
we are walking with Him, like Elijah did; and as he was
walking, he was caught up to Heaven.
And by walking with Christ at this end time, we will
be changed and then taken to the House of our Heavenly
Father. That is why: “I walk with Christ,” because He also
walks with me, by my side. And by whose side? Each one of
you.
And now, He is the same yesterday, today, and
forever. The Jehovah of the Old Testament, the Good
Shepherd… because Psalm 23 says: “The Lord is my
Shepherd.” He is the Jesus Christ who said: “I am the Good
Shepherd.” And He leads us in the fresh pastures of His
promised Word for our time, and thus, He feeds our soul;
because “man shall not live by bread alone, but by every
Word that proceeds out of the mouth of God.” That is the
spiritual Food that the Good Shepherd gives us at this end38 DR. WILLIAM SOTO SANTIAGO
time; through that Food, He leads us at this end time.
Jehovah, Jesus, is my Shepherd. And who else’s? He
is the Shepherd of each one of you as well.
God said through our Bro. Branham that the Thunders
will wake up the Bride, in other words, they will give Her a
revival, an awakening.18
Just as there was an awakening on each occasion in
which God sent each angel-messenger: there was the spiritual
awakening of each age in the soul of the people whose names
are written in the Lamb’s Book of Life.
And at this end time, the revival or awakening for the
Bride-Church is in the Age of the Cornerstone through the
Voice or Voices of the Seven Thunders, which is the Voice of
Christ as the Lion of the tribe of Judah, crying as when a lion
roars; and the Seven Thunders uttering their Voices and
revealing the mystery of the Seventh Seal, the mystery of the
Second Coming of Christ with His Angels at this end time.
That is the mystery that awakens the Church at this end time,
and that is what produces the revival of the Church of this
Last Day.
And every elect can say, at the Last Day, upon
receiving that revelation of the Seven Thunders, the
revelation contained in the Seventh Seal, that he has received
a revival: the revival promised for this end time.
“There is a revival in me:” the revival of the Last Day,
the revival of the Age of the Cornerstone through the Seven
Thunders of Revelation chapter 10.
This is what each of you desire, and so do I, and so
does Christ for all of us. And what does He desire? And what
do we desire? To be like Him, to be in the image and likeness

of Jesus Christ.
And He has promised it, and He will make us like
Him: in His image and likeness.
Well, may God continue to bless you all. Thank you,
Benjie, as well. And let’s leave our friend and brother,
Miguel Bermúdez Marín, to continue and conclude our
