Dear Friends, beloved Brothers and Sisters in Christ,

this is Brother Frank speaking to you from the Mission Center in Krefeld, Germany. This is the “apostolic-prophetic ministry”. By God’s grace we are trying to reach the whole earth with the Word of God, with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. We do speak especially about the return of Christ and about the fulfilment of Bible prophecies in our day. We have to know that God does all things according to His Word. First He makes promises and then He fulfills whatever He promised. Therefore, the New Testament began with the fulfilment of promises and prophecies from the Old Testament, and the New Testament ends in the same way. We are now living in a prophetic age, that means to say, Bible prophecies are now being fulfilled. In the Old Testament, for instance, the Prophet Daniel spoke about the end time. And now we are living at the end of the end time. But we have to recognise the day and the message. We must know what God promised to the Church, to Israel and in general, sharing the Word of God with the multitudes around the earth. I personally have visited over 130 countries in the past forty years, and therefore I am acquainted with the religious situation and also with the political developments in Europe and on earth. We must go back to God’s Word to find our answer. God has written history in advance because He knows the end from the beginning. In Ephesians, chapter 3, the apostle speaks about the mystery of Christ which was revealed and in verse 5 we read, “… which in other ages was not made known unto the sons of men, as it is now revealed unto His holy apostles and prophets by the Spirit.” All things that come from God must be revealed unto us. We can never understand God or His Word by head-knowledge. The Word of God is divinely revealed to the prophets and, of course, contained in the Old and New Testament, as then revealed to the apostles. 

It is absolutely necessary to know the difference between the original Word of God in which is life and between all the interpretations wherein is death. The interpretations began right in the garden of Eden when the serpent added to the Word of God, and so they continued in the Old and New Testament throughout the church history. But now the time has come to go away from all interpretations and return to the Word of God to have divine orientation. Usually I say, it is not enough to go back to what church fathers say; it is not enough to go back to Athanasius or to Hieronymus or to Augustin or to anyone. And to be honest, today we cannot only go back to the time of reformation or to the men God used during that space of time. We must go back to the original teachings of the apostles and prophets! We must go back right to the beginning! 

The Apostle Peter is using the same terminology about apostles and prophets. In 2. Peter, chapter 3, verse 2 we read, “… ye may be mindful of the words which were spoken before by the holy prophets, and of the commandment of us, the apostles of the Lord and Savior.” An apostle is someone sent, and these disciples, the apostles, were sent. In John, chapter 20, from verse 21 to 23 our Lord spoke to the apostles, saying, “As the Father hath sent Me, so send I you.” It is a divine commission that was given to the apostles, and we have to know that Jesus Christ remains the same yesterday, today and for ever. We need today a divine commission to have the same revelation and understanding of God’s Word as our brethren in the beginning had. And therefore, knowing that we are now at the end of the time of grace, we must know that this is not the time of reformation – this is the time of restoration of all things. And Beloved, we also have to understand that God does not play with our time and we must not play with the time God allotted unto us at this end of days.

Now, coming to the point: In John, chapter 14, our Lord gave the promise, “I go to prepare the place; then I will return and take you to be where I am. And then, of course, we have the many promises and scriptures which refer to that great event. We have the description and all the predictions of the things which will take place before the return of the Lord. In Matthew 24, Mark 13, Luke 17 and 21, also the apostles spoke about the last days, about the things which will take place. Now we have to understand that all things in the Church of the living God must be restored to where they have been at the very beginning. Today people are in traditional teachings, believing it’s Bible doctrine, and it’s not. For instance, some believe that God exists as three individual divine persons from all eternity. To demonstrate it, it would be like this: you would have one here and you have the second one here, and you have the third one here. And they all are to be eternal, almighty, present everywhere – one person, the second person, the third person. And these three persons are making up the godhead. That is what the majority in Christendom believes and teaches. Then there is the other teaching that is called “the Jesus-Only teaching”. How can Jesus be His own Father? How can He have prayed to Himself? See, we don’t go by this teaching, or by that teaching. We just return to God and His Word and follow His footsteps from the moment He stepped out of eternity into time. If you go back to the Holy Scripture, you only need to read in 1. Timothy, chapter 1, verse 16 and 17, and then in 1. Timothy, chapter 6, also verse 16 and 17. There we are told that God could never be seen, dwelling in a light where no one has access to. And God is Spirit and no one has ever seen Him in eternity, dwelling in the fulness of light and Spirit in Glory. But then at the beginning – and beginning is beginning, eternity has no beginning – in the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. And John says, “In the beginning was the Word”, going back to the beginning. And then in verse 14 he refers to the Word, the logos, coming to the New Testament, “…and the Word was made flesh”. Not a Son being a Son in heaven and then becoming a Son on earth, but the Word, the logos, the visible form of the invisible God, the I AM. To make it brief: the Yahweh of the Old Testament is the Yahshua of the New Testament – the same great I AM who could say, “Before Abraham was I AM.” 

I am just writing a new brochure; before me I do have the German edition and will only try to translate it into the English. I am asking about thirty questions, and always the word “Why?” – “Why does the word ‘trinity’ not appear a single time in the Bible?” “Why is the word ‘triune God’ not found a single time in the Holy Scriptures?” “Why does the Holy Scripture not a single time speak about three distinct divine persons?” And I continue and continue with all these questions. We shall have this brochure in many different languages available for all who wish to be informed. It is absolutely necessary to differentiate between church traditional teachings and the true teachings of the Holy Scriptures! Therefore, if somebody would tell me that I have to believe those things which were introduced in church councils, for instance the formulation of the apostolic creed so-called and even a book with 79 pages, called “The teaching of the apostles”, and even saying “the doctrine of the twelve apostles”, and then when you read it, there are so many things in here that you just have to shake your head. The doctrines of the apostles are in this book, in the Book of the Acts and in all the letters the apostles have written. The doctrine of the apostles is not in a church book, not in any book at all, not even in any catechism. 

Beloved Friends, dear Brothers and Sisters, I must tell you the truth. The hour of Truth has come and we shall know the Truth, and the Truth shall set us free. If we look into the world, we all understand, even a blind person can see or feel that something is going to happen in the near future. If you wish to know about the preparation going on in the Gulf region, then I read it to you from the Book of Revelation, chapter 9, from verse 13, and here you find the river Euphrates mentioned. And that is the river that flows all through the Iraque of today right through Baghdad, including Mesopotamia and also the whole area of Ur in Chaldea where Abraham was, and where paradise was and where the cradle of humanity actually stood. From there the destruction will come forth, regardless of what is being done in the mean time. Whatever the Holy Scripture says will take place. I am reading Revelation, chapter 9, the three verses 13 to 15, “And the sixth angel sounded, and I heard a voice from the four horns of the golden altar which is before God, saying to the sixth angel, who had the trumpet, ‘Loose the four angels who are bound in the great river, Euphrates.’ And the four angels were loosed, who were prepared for an hour, a day, a month, a year, to slay the third part of men.” This does not need any interpretation; just as it is written in God’s holy Word it will take place. Regardless of inspections, regardless of anything that can be done by any force on earth, whatever the Holy Scripture predicts will take place. God’s Word is always the truth. Now, as we do realise that these things are in the making, how soon will the coming of the Lord be, if the things which happen after the taking away of the Bride Church to Glory are already not obvious in the making – how soon shall we expect the return of Christ! 

Beloved, there are many Bible prophecies and predictions, very, very important to be known to us, because true faith anchors into the promised Word of God. It is not enough to speak about the fulfilment of Bible prophecies or about the end time, we must know God’s promised Word for today, and we must believe it. We must have part in what God is doing right now. As we all know, there were revivals throughout the generations. About hundred years ago the experience was the outpouring of the Holy Spirit. And then after World War II God used a very humble man by the name of William Branham, whom I knew personally for ten years. God used him to bring about the breakthrough of the mighty healing revival which swept the earth as it was never known among men. It was just the Lord visiting this generation with the mightiest move God ever gave to mankind. And then, of course, there were other phases of this revival, but the original goal was to call a people for the name of the Lord, like James was telling us in Acts, chapter 15, from verse 13. Through a revival sent by God like it was with a man sent from God, William Branham, it was not to bring about a new denomination, but it was to be a blessing to all of God’s people. I remember when in 1946, after this man of God was called on May, 7th, he had mighty meetings and of course the trinity pentecostal movements wanted him to be with them, and the oneness wanted him to be with them. But they did not want to cooperate with one another, and so the man of God was to make a decision. And you know, the prophets in the Old Testament saw visions, and this man of God saw a vision: Standing between two trees, and the two trees were full of fruit, of right fruit. And he saw himself in the vision standing between the trinity and the oneness and just taking both of the trees and shaking them mightily, and the fruit just fell upon him. So it’s not the oneness, it’s not the trinity – it’s God having His way with His people at this time, restoring us back. How well does God mean with us! He wishes that we should believe as the Scripture says and return in all things, believing as the Scripture says, so that God can be pleased with us. We cannot have our own ways and make it to glory! We will have to come God’s way, and God’s way to us is our way to God! And Jesus Christ, who is the Word, said, “I AM the way, the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except by me.” So even today it’s by the revelation of Jesus Christ that we know the Scripture, that we know God, that we do know the time we are living in and can place all the predictions in the Old and New Testament according to the developments which are taking place at this time. 

Beloved Friends, this is a world-wide ministry, and according to Matthew 24:14 this Gospel of the Kingdom must be preached to all nations and then the end will be. Therefore God has given us this opportunity to reach you, so that He can speak to you by His holy Word, and please take the Scripture into your hands and take the Word of God as the spiritual divine seed into your heart. And then the Holy Spirit will come upon you and the life that is in God’s Word will spring up in you, and then you can say, like the Apostle Paul did, “Now I live no more, but Christ lives in me.” 

Let us summarise what we said: The return of Christ is imminent. Bible prophecies are now being fulfilled. The last message is going forth with the last call to the Marriage Supper of the Lamb. Behold, the Bridegroom cometh; go ye out to meet Him! Let us be prepared, for that great day of the return of the Bridegroom may happen. In the precious and holy Name of the Lord Jesus Christ. God bless you and be with you. Amen.
