1 Well. Recently, somebody was telling me about Corinthians, and I told him, I am not a disciple of Paul but a prophet messenger like Paul. A pastor must have only one church, meaning wife, but if you are a prophet, according to Acts 15:21, there must be a Church that preaches you in every nation and God gives you the right to have a wife of any race or language or nation of the earth. And if that were possible and very good, I would take her for wife whatever her race, her nation or her language. William Branham did not do it but all North America is not Branhamist. It is God who knows the sin of his prophet.
2 Just as after having known William Branham you went to prostitute yourself with Pentecostal prostitutes, after having known Kacou Philippe, go and prostitute yourself with those old Branhamist prostitutes. But know that the valley without the prophet is harsher than the desert. And the birthright, it is God who gives it to whom He wants. It is to whom it is intended for. And the midnight Cry is nobody's plantation. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
3 And you, Branhamists, recognize that the unity of faith is not possible but around a living prophet. Before William Branham came, you were scattered here and there but it was by him, Prophet William Branham that you have been gathered. And after him, it is impossible for you not to be scattered again. Trying to prove the contrary is to try to prove that 1+1 are not necessarily 2.
4 If you are children of God, you would be comparing the Messages of those who say they are prophets after William Branham to know whether there is one or whether you have to wait for another one. This is what you have to do otherwise, at the judgment, the Pharisees will stand up and condemn you. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
5 Listening to and proving whoever says he is a prophet is a Jewish law; whatever the place from where he arises. And that is what the Pharisees and Sadducees did. And if carnal Israel did it, why wouldn't you therefore do it if you are really spiritual Israel?
6 You, Branhamist pastors, if you are children of God, you would say to all those that come here to Ivory Coast because of the midnight Cry: "It is not necessary for you to go to Ivory Coast to this Prophet Kacou Philippe. Remain here! We will make him come here and we will all listen to him. And if he is of God, we all will believe in him. Instead of spending great sums of money on conventions to listen to things that we already know, we will spend for what we do not know". You see? If you are of God, this is what you have to do and God will be with you. If you are spiritual Israel, you will produce the fruits of spiritual Israel. But you have been trying to ignore that so far. This is the proof that you are pagans and that never left you.
7 Generation after generation, prophet after prophet up to the Lord Jesus Christ's coming, Israel acted the same way and even when Paul came out from their midst to preach a new Gospel, they acted the same way and spiritual Israel will not do the contrary. But you, Branhamists, have you done that? What pagan Rome and the Catholic and Protestant churches did, is what you have always been doing. And I tell you that even the Catholics, Protestants and evangelicals will condemn you at the judgment because, without the notion of a prophet, they wished to know about that prophet of Kentucky and that is where this photograph of the Pillar of Fire was taken. But you Branhamists, you have not tried to do that!
8 Take history and you will see that from the Catholic church to Branhamism, it is Christianized paganism. I told you that my Branhamist pastor, had had an evangelical prophetess come to his house for her to pray for his sick father. Look at Egypt, and you will see that a priest of the god Osiris can call upon a priest of goddess Isis if he needs healing. And in this generation, you saw some Catholics at Osborn's or Benny Hinn's crusades to obtain healing. Don't err; the current Christianity is always the same Roman polytheism changing names and aspects. It is its appearance that has changed but the spirit and the substance have remained the same. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
9 Those priests and pastors that you see are the priests of the gods of Egypt! Those Chris Oyakhilome, David Owuor, Emmanuel Makandiwa, Uebert Angel, T. B. Joshua and David Oyedepo are priests of the gods of Egypt! Those Joel Osteen, T.D. Jakes, Doug Batchelor, Billy Graham, Edir Macedo, Valdemiro Santiago, Silas Malafaia, Paula White, Joyce Meyer, Alberto Mottesi, Claudio Freidzon and Dante Gebel are priests of the gods of Egypt!
10 Those Benny Hinn, Manasseh Jordan, Jesse Jackson, John Hagee, Pat Robertson, Joaquim Gonçalves, Donald Parnell, Alejandro Bullón and Guillermo Maldonado are priests of the gods of Egypt! They are all demons. When I saw them in the vision, their bodies were human bodies but their heads were heads of different animals. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
11 Then, stop saying: God spoke to me, God said to me! You see? If Irenaeus and Eusebius and printing works had not gathered the books of the prophets in only one book called the Bible, you would have seen this impure religion very perverted and confused. And the prostitutes of Hollywood would teach her morality. You see?
12 For example, for the Old Testament, the Branhamists would only recognize seven prophets. The evangelicals would only recognize twelve. The Protestants, twenty-four and people like Elisha would never be prophets and no book would come after only one Gospel. Among the four Gospels, they would choose only one, the one of Luke and throw the three others away. And confusion would be ten times greater because we are in the Eden of Satan. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
13 Well, this morning I would like to speak about the subject: Who are the judges of the nations? Amen! The whole world has two main tribunals among which is the UN Appeals Tribunal, which is supposed to be the highest jurisdiction in the world, with seven judges coming from the four corners of the earth, with only one seven-year mandate for each of them! And this tribunal cannot cancel a judgment pronounced by the other tribunal except for some exceptions.
14 But this morning, it is not about them and their judgment that I want to speak. But I want to speak about the judgment of the great white throne according to Revelation.20. Daniel 7 says: " I beheld till thrones were set, and the Ancient of days did sit…, and ten thousand times ten thousand stood before him: the judgment was set, and the books were opened."
15 Well! God had determined seventy weeks for Israel. One week makes seven years and one generation lasts forty years. And there was only one week left when the Lord Jesus came. You cannot make any literal calculation of that because the count stops at every deportation of Israel.
16 The beginning of Jesus' ministry is the beginning of the 70th week. And it is written that in the middle of the week, that is to say after three and a half years, the sacrifice will be removed to be given to the nations and that will last seven ages. And then, Revelation 11 says that Elijah and Moses will prophesy again in Israel for 1260 days, that is to say three and a half years which are the remaining second half of the 70th week.
17 The Hebrew calendar counts thirty days for each month. And when God deals with Israel, He exclusively deals with Israel and leaves the nations aside, and when God deals with the nations, He exclusively deals with the nations and leaves Israel aside.
18 Now observe closely the first half of the week. For three and a half years here with Israel, with the Lord Jesus Christ, it was strictly reserved for Israel according to the 70 weeks of Daniel so that, as in Matthew 10:5 to 6, when the Lord Jesus Christ sent his disciples, He firmly ordered them and said: " I have not been sent save to the lost Sheep of Israel's house. Enter ye not into the houses of the nations".
19 And in Matthew 15:21 to 24, he said to that woman of the nations, I am going to read that: " And Jesus, going forth from thence, went away into the parts of Tyre and Sidon. And lo, a Canaanitish woman, coming out from those borders, cried to Him saying, Have pity on me, Lord, son of David; my daughter is miserably possessed by a demon… But he answering said, I have not been sent save to the lost Sheep of Israel's house." You see?
20 The sacrifice of Jesus on the cross was for all of humanity, from Adam to the end of the world. You see? He was put to death, buried, and rose from the dead and returned to his initial position of supreme God and He comes back from generation to generation as the Word through holy prophets as in the Old Testament. But as the Son of Man that is to say, prophet, his ministry in Israel was only for the Jews.
21 And the Lord Jesus Christ only had twelve apostles and they were all Jews. And when the Holy Spirit came down, the multitude which had gather there in the upper room was all Jewish. And none of the twelve apostles went to preach to a man of the nations. That only took place for the first time, more than ten years later, when Peter, on God's order, preached to Cornelius, a man of the nations. It must have been Peter because, on the whole face of the earth, it was only him who had the keys of the Kingdom of the Heavens. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
22 You say: "Oh Brother Philippe, the Bible says that they came from all the nations. Take Acts 2. The fifth verse says that all the pious Jews of all the nations were gathered in Jerusalem because of the Pentecost feast. In verses 14 and 22, Peter says: "men of Judaea… men of Israel…" You see? He does not say: men of the nations but he says: men of Judaea, men of Israel. You see?
23 The sacrifice of Jesus for the redemption of mankind is for all the creation since the foundation of the world, including all humans from Adam to the last chosen one at the end of the world, but his ministry and the ministry of the twelve apostles was only for the Jews. And the Lord Jesus Christ only established twelve Jewish apostles. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”].
24 If you are apostles or evangelists today, that implies that God sent a prophet messenger like Moses, Jeremiah, Daniel, Isaiah… again on earth and it is this prophet messenger who has established you as apostles or evangelists. It is the only way that can be.
25 No matter how much you raise the dead and you heal the sick and that your prophecies perfectly come true, you are under the judgment of Matthew 7:21. You cannot be an apostle or evangelist or prophet or a servant of God unless you are established by the prophet messenger that Jesus Christ has sent in your generation. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
26 There are two missions in the ministry of Paul in Isaiah 49:6: one for Israel and another one for the nations. Let us read Isaiah 49:6: “And He saith, It is a small thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the Preserved of Israel; I have even given thee for a light of the nations, that thou mayest be my Salvation unto the end of the earth.” You see?
27 The first part of the verse says: “And he saith, It is a small thing that thou shouldest be my servant to raise up the tribes of Jacob, and to restore the Preserved of Israel”. And out of this first part of the ministry of Paul, Epistle to the Hebrews came to existence. Epistle to the Hebrews was written by Paul.
28 And there is a second mission and it is written: “I have even given thee…”, meaning: In addition to Israel, “I have even given thee a light of the nations, that thou mayest be my Salvation unto the end of the earth.” And that is exactly what happened in the fulfilment in Acts 13:46 to 47.
29 The revelation about the author of the book of Hebrews is thus confirmed. It is only in the revelation of the midnight Cry and by a prophet that the old debate about the author of the Epistle to the Hebrews finds its answer. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
30 Now, see this: when the Jews rejected Salvation so that we, the nations, should also be saved, God dispersed them and hardened their heart so that there be no confusion. And so will it be till the end of the seven ages of the Church of the nations. God does not deal with Jews and the nations at the same time.
31 Paul had tried to convert the Jews but when he received this revelation, he turned away from them at once and went towards the nations and the epistle to the Hebrews remained as a sign of this attempt like Kacou.13 in the midnight Cry. You see? Preaching to the Jews was not his mission. This is why in the New Testament, the Epistle to the Hebrews is the beginning of Paul's ministry.
32 And after that, he wrote: to the Romans, to the Corinthians, to the Galatians, to the Ephesians, to the Philippians, to the Colossians, to the Thessalonians… Whereas the epistles of Peter, James, John and Jude are addressed to the Jews! The ministry of Jesus Christ was just for the Jews. And an apostle of Jesus cannot write an epistle to a man of the nations, God never gave him that mission! And look at how each of the four Gospels tried to give the Lord Jesus roots in Judaism so that the Jews may become Christians.
33 Look at how the book of Matthew starts with a genealogy which means nothing to a man of the nations. The goal of the four Gospels is to convert the Jews into Christians and Judaism into Christianity and that is what the apostles were busy with but that was not possible because the time of the Jews was over. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
34 Look at the epistles of Peter, James, John and Jude and you will see that they are addressed to Jews. James.1:1 says, " James, bondman of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are in the dispersion, greeting." And 1 Peter 1:1 says: "Peter, apostle of Jesus Christ, to the sojourners of the dispersion of Pontus, Galatia, Cappadocia, Asia, and Bithynia". And today, we use these books because Christianity has now reached the stature of the Jews. But where is the doctrine of the twelve apostles and all those Hebrew prophets in Christianity? It is there, it is the base of the foundation of the Church. And out of this foundation, Paul made something come, which is the plan of this foundation for the nations.
35 Paul says in 1 Corinthians 3:10: "According to the grace of God which has been given to me, as a wise architect, I have laid the foundation ". You see?
36 If God had not destroyed Jerusalem and had not dispersed the Jews, if God had not made the temple disappear from Jerusalem, the Vatican would be in Jerusalem and the whole of Christendom would have its gaze turned towards Israel and each church would have its headquarters in Jerusalem and some Jews, with the blood of Christ on their hands, would be the greatest reverends of the earth according to Judges 17:7 to 13. You see? The Lord Jesus always taught it and the outpouring of the Holy Spirit did not put an end to that.
37 If an apostle tried to do it, that would be against the Word but because of the keys of the Kingdom, Peter had the power to do it if that were possible and when the day came, an angel came from the presence of God. It was a historic event: The beginning of the time of the nations. And when the event took place, it caused a great tumult and indignation and astonishment among the Jews, even among the apostles and the disciples. Amen! Understand well this Message, bear well in mind what I am saying. The Lord Jesus Christ and his apostles, it was only for the Jews. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”].
38 You have the Bible in your hands and Muslims tell you that and you do not want to accept it because they are Muslims. And yet, it is the truth! Had the persecution and the destruction of Jerusalem not happened, the apostles would have never gotten out of Israel and that was correct. And even though they came out because of the persecution, it was not to go and preach to the nations. An apostle of the Lord Jesus cannot go to preach to the nations because it was not to the nations that the Lord Jesus Christ had been sent.
39 For his sacrifice on the cross, it was for the Jews and the nations but his ministry was only for the Jews. I tell you the prophetic revelation of Jesus Christ whom you pretend to worship and whom you do not know. This truth which can never come from a man. If you do not understand it, it is because it has not been given to you to understand the mysteries of the Kingdom of the Heavens. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”].
40 Now, observe Matthew 28:19. The Lord Jesus says two things. First: Go and make disciples of all the nations. And then: baptize them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit. And the twelve apostles knew that the two Words were mysteries. Because Jesus Christ always told them not to go towards the nations. And even after the outpouring of the Holy Spirit, an apostle, whoever he was, could not go and preach somewhere to a man of the nations. God had reserved a time and some prophets of first order to do that.
41 And one day, a light shone on the way to Damascus. God raised up Paul, as the very first messenger for the nations after the same model of the prophetic calls and commissions of the Old Testament. Paul has never been raised up in substitution of Judas the Iscariote as it is taught in the churches. But why did not God raise up a man of the nations to preach to the nations? Why does God raise up Paul, a Jew to preach to the nations? Why that?
42 The answer is: Paul had to be a Jew because it was absolutely necessary to take the fire of God on the altar to light the first lamp of the candlestick and not a strange fire. For Islam to be true, Mahomet should come from Judaism. It is “Thus saith the Lord”. And it is the only reason that led me to the Message of William Branham, otherwise, I did not need it. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
43 And after that, from the fire of the first lamp, the second lamp was lit and from the fire of the second lamp, the third was lit, and so on to the seventh lamp. You see? The ministry of Jesus Christ and the ministry of the twelve apostles, it was only for Israel. And the Lord Jesus Christ said: " Verily I say unto you, that when the son of man shall sit down upon his throne of glory, *ye* also shall sit on twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel." [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”].
44 No apostle of Jesus will judge a man of the nations. Now, if the twelve apostles are the judges of the twelve tribes of Israel, who are those that will judge the nations? If the prophets of Israel judge Israel, who are those who will judge the nations? The answer is in Matthew 23:34 to 35: I will send you prophets. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
45 God will send prophets to the nations. God will send prophets like Isaiah, Jeremiah, Amos, Habakkuk, Zephaniah... God will send prophets to the nations and those will be the judges of the nations. I say it in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. I will stand to the judgment to respond of it. Know that I say this in the virtue of the vision and mandate that I received on April 24, 1993. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]. I say this in the name of the Lord and it is an eternal truth that shall never fail. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
46 I repeat that the sacrifice of Jesus on the cross, it is for all of creation until the end of the world but as the son of man, that is to say, prophet, his ministry was only for the Jews. When the Lord Jesus Christ or one of the twelve apostles went out of Israel, it was because of Jews. They cannot go to preach to a man of the nations. This is not possible. It was not possible over there and this is not possible today.
47 The Lord Jesus Christ had twelve Apostles and they were apostles for Israel and their books and written documents were for Israel. It is like William Branham coming here to South Africa only because of white people because a black judge would come for the black people. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”].
48 William Branham had come to South Africa because there were white people in South Africa. But for the black people, a time was coming when God was going to visit this race and it is now. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
49 At the last judgment, some thrones will be set there. And the princes of the nations who are the prophets of the nations will be seated there with their suites to judge the nations; they were manifested by the seven Spirits of God sent to the seven churches of the nations. The seven Spirits or the seven princes who continuously see the face of the great King.
50 And these seven judges who are the seven heavenly angels raised up dozens of prophets of the nations as it was for Israel in the Old Testament. And each messenger will move forward there with his suite and they will sit to judge the nations. And then the nations will approach. Brothers and Sisters, maybe I am not the son of my mother but this is the revelation and the absolute truth from God.
51 The seven heavenly angels of the seven Church ages of the nations are a perfect type of the seven princes of Esther.1. The Bible talks about the wise who have knowledge and intelligence of times and circumstances and the closest of whom are the seven princes of Persia and Media who sit in the first rank in the kingdom and who continuously see the face of king Ahasuerus who reigned over all the nations of the earth.
52 Ahasuerus is the image of the Lord Jesus Christ, the God of the nations in his reign and Esther comes as the nation of Israel. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]
53 That is why at the judgment of the white throne, such a generation of the nations will approach and such a judge of the nations will sit with his suite and will judge it. Such a generation will approach and such judges will sit with their suites and will judge it. There will be principal judges and auxiliary judges and their suites. And one generation of Laodicea will approach and William Branham will be sitting there with his suite to judge it.
54 And when this generation that did not know William Branham approaches, it will see Prophet Kacou Philippe with the apostles of each nation. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]. There will be no Peter, James and John! No Jesus of Nazareth or Moses, no William Branham or one of the prophets of the Old Testament. Oh Brethren! That is wonderful! Blessed be the people that see! [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”].
55 If I am not a judge, why was it written "Pronounce the judgment” on the scriptures carried by the clouds in 1993? Is it not a judge who is entitled to pronounce the judgment? The prophets are the judges of God for their generation. William Branham said that he will answer for those with whom he lived. Paul said in Romans 2:16 that the humanity of his time will be judged according to his Gospel. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]. By the Words of the prophet of your time, you will be judged.
56 By the Words of the prophet of your time, you will be condemned or saved. And throughout the ministry, I have done that on behalf of God. I am the judge of God for my generation on earth and I will be the judge of God for my generation in Heaven. And it is by my Words that you will be judged at the judgment of the white throne. [Ed: The congregation says, “Amen!”]. One day, I will be the judge of this generation before God. God is great!
