early FALSE PROPHETS – BETHEL AND G.C.C. EXPERIENCES

CHAPTER 4

II Peter 2: 1-2 <But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

And many shall follow their pernicious ways; by reason of whom the way of truth shall be evil spoken of.>

So tonight our topic is going to be “Early False Prophets – Bethel And G.C.C. Experiences.”

So what I am about to do tonight is to show you a living manifestation or several manifestations of self and satanic delusions. You will see the manifestation of self, pride and ambition, and the end of such things. So now, these stories that you will hear are not things that were fabricated, they are not types, they are not shadows, they are not things that were made up, but they are actual experiences that we experienced here at G.C.C., some of them, and many can relate to these experiences. But there was a generation born who don’t know these things, and they may be surprising to some. And there is also a generation born at Bethel, and these things may be strange to them but these things are facts. Yes!

I was remembering today; in all the expositions that we have made, and personally that I have made, of all false prophets and teachers throughout the world, I can say truthfully, honestly and sincerely, God is my witness, that I have never fought a carnal battle and lied upon any man, no matter how wrong that he is. And I have suffered with men for longer than I supposed to have suffered, in order to deliver them from their deception. And I am thankful for that, that I have never ever in my Christian life fabricated a lie against a man, because he is wrong, to bring him down, and I am thankful for that and the Lord has blessed us because of that, and I have so taught the ministers under this ministry, never to do that because there is a scripture standing there which says; “The weapons of our warfare are not carnal, but mighty through God to the pulling down of strongholds.” Yes! And we follow that motto.

Whatever you are going to hear tonight will be understated rather than overstated. And we have witnesses to these things, both here and back home, and a false prophet likes to say that “they have made up that and they lied against us” because they are exposed, but that is not so.

So you are going to get a few examples of the actual manifestations, not just of men, but the manifestations of these spirits that were loosed from the Euphrates River. And probably I did not explain about the Euphrates River, but it is very simple. The prophet of God said that those are denominational rivers. Yes! So it is not actually a river, but there is a river called the Euphrates River, but the Bible took that and typed it out as the Roman Empire and where those demons were bound by the Roman empire, and the prophet said that those rivers were denominational rivers. So these demons were released in the end time, and don’t forget that they are looking for men to possess to fulfil Matthew 24: 24; “False christs and false prophets shall arise and shall deceive many.” We can say truthfully here at G.C.C. and Bethel, and even other places and other churches, that we have witnessed the manifestations of some of these hideous devils, in a way that our human minds could not have imagined. Yes!

So we are putting these things together, not so much to expose the human beings, because some of them are now dead, some of them are of no threat to us; no threat to the church. But this is being exposed to the message world to alert them concerning these spirits that are loosed around the message, and yeah, up around the truth and the revelation, and to also educate our brothers and sisters who are now coming into this light by a circulation of our tapes and E.O.D.H. books, what to look out for, that they would be wise enough to understand how these spirits attack and how friendly they come into the congregation and then rise up and destroy many souls. Many souls were destroyed, and we have witnessed the destruction of many souls by these false prophets arising and we are fully aware of these spirits. We don’t joke around these spirits. And that you servants of God, would understand that in your countries, wherever the truth of the Lord comes, you expect three kinds of believers and you expect these demons to manifest themselves in men sitting right in the congregation, and Brother Paul found that. He said, “Men from amongst your selves shall arise speaking perverse things to draw away disciples after them.” Yes, he saw them. And our prophet, Brother Branham, warned about the same thing, and in “Christ is the mystery of God revealed”, he said:

Quote W.M.B.: 12-1 …Now, you're all one great, big, sweet group now, but remember my warning. See? Satan won't let that stay that way. No, sir. He'll shoot everything, if he has to bring somebody in to make his target. He'll bring some critic or unbeliever in, set him down, and cause him to fellowship with you under the quietness and things. Then he will shoot that guy with some kind of poison stuff, and he'll start through the church with it. Don't you take sides with it. Don't you have nothing to do with anything else.

… The enemy will come. And when he does, just cling that much closer together. And the one that the Devil is using for an enemy will either get out or come in and be one of you. (Christ Is The Mystery Of God Revealed 63-0728).

We have witnessed all these things.

HARRY Mc COON

Now, this one might be a little strange, but then it concerns you to a certain extent. This here has to do with a man who is now dead but he manifested these spirits. Now, this man was amongst you, and some of the old timers would remember. Let it be known that this report is the truth. I have it on tape, by his own testimony. He once followed a doctrine and a cult called Yeshua Messiah, and was a preacher. God privileged this man, with a privilege that I would have loved to have, but never had it in that form. He was living in the United States of America being a Trinidadian, and by the miracle of God, out of the whole wide world, he went to the fountain of life, where God is about to outpour His Spirit.

WRONG MOTIVES AND OBJECTIVES

He sat at the feet of Pastor Robert Lee Lambert, to hear those great revelations. I learned from discussions with him, and close examination in the course of time, why certain things did befall this man. He would do almost anything to go anywhere and preach the Gospel. He ended up before mighty men of God, right in the tabernacle of Durham, he sat and heard the Word of the Lord, but he had the wrong desires. He had the wrong motives. He had the wrong objectives. I learned that afterwards by his confession. He said, “My desire for going to the States and finding truth was that I wanted to be a great man, and I had some arguments with certain preachers here and I wanted to receive power from God. Secretly in the heart, I wanted to come back and kill them.” That was deep-seated in the heart of this man. It took me a long time to find that out.

On the surface, seated among the congregation and sitting under the man of God, everybody accepted that his motives, objectives and desires were pure. But everybody’s desires and motives and objectives are not pure. They alone know their desires. They alone know what they are aiming at. To seek this power when he found the Word of God, he went upon a mountain with that desire. You had better know what you are seeking. You had better know how you are seeking God.

He went upon a mountain. There on that mountain he heard the voice of the prophet coming through his mouth. He had some supernatural experiences, and was given a Hebrew word to use against his enemies.

He said that he eventually used that Hebrew word and was able to transfigure himself. Witnesses who saw him do it said that his face turned white like milk and took a different shape, which he said is the mount transfiguration experience and that the Lord had given him a ministry. By doing that and using that Hebrew word, he attacked many believers, spiritually, here in Trinidad, and put such a spiritual blow upon their heads, that it brought them instant headaches. Those men confessed that to me, and there were men that he repented to in my presence. One man said, “I will never forgive you for that, because you almost caused me to jump out of a car, that day when you transfigured your face before me.”

He deceived a preacher and his congregation in this country, when he came back from the United States. A preacher that had already been preaching for twenty years. He had that congregation giving full honour and respect to him, and total obedience by that power that he had. This man terrorized certain people who were disobedient to him.

Someone revealed to him, that he was a prophet. He believed that he was to be co-prophet with Revelation 10:1 to evangelize the entire earth. He identified himself in Revelation 4, as one of the beast, the eagle. With that motive and objective and the wrong desires, he sat and heard solid truth, but because his heart was not right, being religiously ambitious, he took ahold of the greatest revelation that God ever sent upon the face of the earth, the revelation of the son of man; the seals, and in his mind the devil perverted it. The revelation which he got, the whole thing was antichrist. He believed that to be the truth.

He believed that the fullness of the Godhead was dwelling bodily in a human vessel. He had his own idea about how to be born again. He believed to be born again you must have literal pains like a woman in childbirth, and he began seeking after that, right in the tabernacle, seeking for that pain and that travailing down on the inside. He was in the tabernacle one day, without the leadership of God's servant, and without asking a question, he went on seeking to be born again and without asking how to be born again, he tried to get born again.

He had a certain experience like what he wanted. Right in the tabernacle before the great servant of God, a demon came in and gave him what he was looking for. He had real birth pains, he groaned, he sighed, he travailed and he accepted that as the new birth. Accepting that as the new birth not knowing that it was a demon that came down in him, that demon started giving him many delusions, relative to his misconception of the son of man, insomuch that he went to the servant of God one day and shook his hand, and when he raised up his head he saw that man's face shinning like the sun and he fainted. That is what he was seeing.

A little while after that, he started losing his mind. He would go through the traffic light on red; he heard a bell ringing in his ear. He wanted to get that revelation at once. He wanted to get all that revelation because his ministry was very urgent to all the world. He read some books somewhere, where he could get all that revelation while sleeping. He would place an earphone in his ear, and when he awoke he remembered everything. So he set that tape on, plugged it in his ear and while he slept that would be playing in his ear. He damaged his ear bells. He filled himself with what he thought was the revelation. He was demon possessed.

He was in New York one time, and a man walked up to him and said; “You need a pair of shoes", took him into the store and bought a pair, and when he came outside the man disappeared. He said, “That was the Messiah that appeared to me and bought this pair of shoes". Together with that, he showed me the shoes. So after going through those things, he thought that he was fully equipped, was born again and that he had something that nobody else had. He had a privilege that nobody else had. He came to Trinidad to make himself a great prophet. So the man of God told him to get in contact with Brother Bruce, when he comes.

So he came down here, I listened to him. Well, of course, “he had all the Revelation and I had none.” He came and sat in my little prayer house, which used to be situated where Bethel now stands. He said, "If thou knewest who speaketh, to thee thou would have ask of him, and he will give you eternal life." He said, "I am filled with divine love," and indicated enough to tell me he is a prophet. I listened to him. He said, "And furthermore, God’s servant sent me to you, to help you." I said, "All well and good." He said, "Would you preach for me?''. Yes! I went and preached.

The man and the congregation he had deceived started projecting a doctrine that whosoever does not listen to this man is lost. I listened to everything, and I could not believe it. I could not accept it, because the Lord had showed me differently. So this man visited me for many weeks, propagating his doctrine to me, but I knew something was wrong. I was just coming into this Revelation, and I myself had no tapes of the man of God, Pastor Lambert.

I did not hear many of the great truths, but now the devil attacked me with the perverted truth, before the full truth could come to me, and I was hearing that but I could not accept it. I said something is wrong here. I had enough knowledge to know that no man is Jesus. I had enough knowledge to know that the fullness of the Godhead is dwelling in no man. And I went on and I watched that man for six months, playing it right down, because I wanted to know. I knew he was wrong because of certain pictures he showed me. He passed through New Jersey, U.S.A. and in just a few minutes, he converted that congregation and baptized about twenty five people.

Receiving money from the States as a great man of God, he bought a car down here, and he was trying to be very close to me. He came to the prayer house and showed me a photograph where he was baptizing somebody, and after the baptism, he was hugging a man's wife around her waist, touching her. I knew that was not divine love, and divine love would not do that. I said, “That is nastiness thou man of God! It is unscriptural in the Word of God." He said, "You see, you don't understand, that is divine love." I said, "Oh! It’s divine love." I said, “Okay, so be it.” I wanted to hear some more. So I got his whole story, from the beginning. I had confidence that he could not deceive me. 

I wrote the man of God. I said, “This man is projecting such and such and such, and I believe that there is a right side concerning these truths, and I believe that this man is perverting this thing.” He said, “So be it. Brother Bruce, I am writing him a letter telling him the plain truth, to get off the pulpit and stop ministering the Word of God and I am sending him to you, for you to look over his soul. I am sending you a copy of this letter.” He sent me a copy of the letter ahead of time and then sent him that letter telling him to get off the pulpit and come and humble himself to the man of God.

He had already indoctrinated that congregation with his doctrine, his false sensations, his visions and his dreams. He had already whipped those brothers with that Hebrew word. He had them under subjection. I thought it was time to expose this man, so I had that letter and I never showed it to him.

We both came across in the prayer house and I thought I would expose him, and when I did, he started using his Hebrew word and tried to transfigure himself before me. He later confessed that. His Hebrew word was not working and his transfiguration was not working, but I knew he was trying to do something because I saw him lean backward and relaxed on a bed where he was sitting. I said, “You are a false prophet, and you are demon possessed and you need to repent!” That man turned right over on the bed and fell over. He left his Bible, ran out and took off.

I went out after him. I said, “Get away from here, you are living in fornication with a young girl in this country and that is not the Spirit of God!” He said, “Hush man, Oh God hush, hush man.” I said, “I am not hushing tonight, you have a devil, and your only way of escape is to get all the men you deceived, bring them right before me and testify of your deception.” Well, he delayed for a few days. I then got about two or three of those men and I told them what was happening.

One night at midnight everybody came down to Bethel. The place was packed. I said, “Such and such is the case; here I have a letter from the man of God.” When I pulled that letter out fear struck everybody’s heart because he had already put up that man as a man of God and himself as a prophet. I said, “This is what the man of God has to say about this man”, and when that happened, everybody’s eyes were opened. He had the Seals Book with his name identified as the eagle. He had the Bible marked out where that man of God fulfilled a certain office. I said, “You have a devil in you! The man of God does not condone these things”. I said, “What I want you to do is to start testifying to these men how you got into this delusion.” It lasted for about two to three hours and that is how I know most of these facts concerning this false prophet. He was a mad man mishandling the Word of God, living in fornication around the Word of God and trying to make himself a prophet. The people who heard that exposition were delivered. I sent all those people to different churches that claimed to be preaching the revelation of the message. I told them to go and find a pastor. The Lord sent those people to me to pastor. They did not want to go, but yet, I did not want to open up a church here in opposition to my little brother right on the hill.

His present condition (1993) is that he is living with two wives. He occasionally gives me a visit. He would ask me how things are. I said many times to him, “You need to repent for your adultery, and when you come here speak very seriously with me. You need to straighten up!” He said, “Well, I am trying to work it out.” He had his plans of how to work that out. The Lord was merciful to him and healed his ear. The Lord was merciful to him and saved his mind because he repented. He went on for a while and when that division took place concerning those four preachers, he went with that bunch. He is out into the world tonight. This revelation demands respect, reverence, sanctification, holiness, the right desires after eternal life and that only. This poor, deluded man, after a few years, died in his sins, before his middle age.

“PROPHET” HARRY PAUL – “ABRAHAM”

Here is another story of how men become demon possessed. This was a fellow who could not humble himself. He had a proud spirit. He is also now dead, even as a young man.

During that time that we made a stand for the Word of God, against “prophets” Macarthy and Kennedy’s resurrection heresies, there was a lovely brother who came out with us named Harry Paul. After a little while, I left this country for Guyana and went down to help somebody preach. I came back and understood that he was not out to church.

Some people think that is no part of the pastor’s business to ask why they are missing services. But if he doesn’t do that he is not a good shepherd. If Christians are going to miss services, I believe they need to come to the pastor and let him know that they will be absent for a few days or let the pastor know that they are sick or they are having some problems or that something is wrong. And if your children or your wife who live in the same house with you, they are not coming to church, it is the duty of the husband to come to the pastor, before the pastor comes to him, and explain that situation that his children are sick or something is wrong, or his wife is having unbelief, and explain that to the pastor. You should never give the pastor that problem to have to come and ask you, “Where are your children, I have not been seeing them for a few months?” I believe that is total disrespect to the ministry, total disrespect to the minister, and I believe that is giving extra worry to the pastor for him to be figuring out; “What happened? What happened?” You send him to pray for those souls while those souls might be just having a good time.

I believe that is good respect, but there are unmannerly people. They were never brought up, they were dragged up. Yes! They never had any kind of training, no kind of manners. If they are even going out on a trip somewhere, they don’t say anything to the pastor. They are selfish people. In other words; “That is not your business.” Yes! Some people are so secretive in themselves that they don’t want anybody to know their business.

Don’t you know that you belong to a certain house, and if you are absent from that house everybody worries and they want to know why you did not come home tonight and for one week we are missing you? Don’t you know they will go to the police? Alright, it is the same thing in the House of God, that if you are missing from the House of God and you are not attending services, it is the burden of the pastor, it is the burden of the ministers. And I believe that we should have enough respect to know that we are not attending church as we are supposed to and one of your family members is not doing that, it is your responsibility to even come and say, “I am having problems with this young lady, I am having some problems with this young man and I cannot get them to come to church, something is happening. They are having worldly friends. They are after a girl, after a boy.” Now, in so doing, you would be able to help your children, help your wife, help your husband. I believe that is proper training.

But the only time that some people come to the pastor is when their family gets into trouble and stops church and run away with a man, run off with a girl, wife run off with another man, that is the time they come to complain to the pastor. The pastor is not a magician to solve that problem for you. You should be picking up the slack at home. You should be doing your duty in keeping in contact with your pastor. How many say, amen? [Congregation says, “Amen!”]

That does not only go for here, brothers and sisters. It goes for Bethel and it goes for wherever my voice would be heard. That is proper training.

So I approached this man because we were not seeing him, and hear the answer he gave to his pastor. I said, “Brother, are you having some problems? I do not want anything to happen to you brothers at this time.” He said; “Nothing could happen to me!” From the time I saw that proud spirit, I knew that a demon got on him. I thought; “Nothing can happen to you?” He went back and tried to fool with a man that really hated me and was really trying to pull us down, and told all kinds of lies. He was a preacher. I am talking about deliberate lies, and claimed to be preaching the Word of God, and that fellow had the bedding ground to receive such lies. Before you could receive lies against your minister, against your pastor and against the truth, you must have a certain bedding ground. After you sit and hear a pastor and you know his motives, you know his objectives, and you know his purpose, for you to go and receive lies about him, something is wrong with your soul. And do you know what was happening? I went out and I left Brother Ramkumar in charge of the church, and he got the idea that he was the spiritual one whom I supposed to have left in charge. Now, you see pride, self, ambition. So they sowed up that fellow real bad.

Then the Lord revealed to me; “Go tell that man (who was telling all those lies); He that telleth lies shall not tarry in the sight of God. He that telleth lies, him will I cut off.” When I did that, that man went back into the world and he is still in the world tonight, cut off from almighty God.

This little brother went back to those preachers and they filled his mind with all kinds of lies. It is a dangerous thing to hear a voice that speaks against this truth, after you know it to be the truth! You should not have any company with anyone who speaks against this truth. Any mouth that speaks against that Word of `God is the devil! You should not be fooling with anybody who preaches unbelief to you. He knew that; I told him that.

So whenever you come against the truth, whenever you start hardening your heat against the Word and start hearing the wrong voices, you are going to lose grace in the sight of God. So, immediately, when that fellow acted proudly and refused to humble himself, he started getting problems in the flesh, and he went back there, and in his unbelief, he went out and committed adultery and he came back to me with tears in his eyes, in the little prayer house. He said, “Brother Bruce, I realize my wrong. I was too proud, I should not be so proud”. I felt so good for that man, I said, “Brother, I would do anything in my life to see you walk with God’s Word. Come to church.” He went away. He did not have the grace to come.

Lo and behold, instead of repenting and bringing back his wife, he found a way out for his sin. There is no way out for your sin, but open confession and repentance! You cannot patch up anything before God. The minute you want to patch up something under this Word of God, you will be given over to a strong delusion. When you do wrong, repent, come down and humble that heart. The very reason that man would not repent was because of a proud heart. So he remained there a little without repenting. Lo and behold, he found an excuse. He was ambitious; never gave up that pride and the devil told him in a vision that he was Abraham the Prophet. This woman that he committed adultery with was “Hagar”, therefore it was not sinful. Brother Dilraj knows that to be the truth. Brother Deo Ramkumar knows that to be the truth. Different ones in here know that to be the truth.

Now, he was Abraham the prophet. Easy like that he became Abraham the prophet, with the wrong motives, the wrong objectives and playing around this Word. Brothers, around this Revelation, the devil has his great demons posted in order to attack anybody. Anybody who would stand for this truth had better know how they are walking. Do not fool with dreams! You do not fool with visions! You do not fool with sin! When you are wrong, repent! A man could fool around in organization and do a lot of things and get away. I am not trying to get at you with your little faults. Do not get scared, everyone of us has our faults and failures here and there, but I am talking about people who are living in adultery and commit fornication, lie and cuss and steal and sit in the House of God and then claim to be Christians. Your judgment is sure. I am not talking about a little weakness here and there, but your motives and objectives are right. Every one of us has that. He believed that he got a revelation that he is Abraham the prophet, and believing that he is Abraham the Prophet, he was going with Hagar. He had a son by Hagar. He came to the church here as Prophet Abraham. Prophet Abraham sat right at the back.

You could know those who claim to be prophets; they have a certain look. The Lord helped me to understand that something was wrong. So after the meeting I wanted to talk to him to catch his spirit. So I went out there, I said, “How are you?” He said, “I came to unbind this church because it is bound.” I said, Okay” He said, “You saw when I walked around the church and I walked around the pool; I unbound it.” I said, “It would be nice to talk to you some day about this great power that you have.” So I went down to his house, in the presence of Brother Dilraj. He looked at Brother Dilraj; he was speaking to me in parables. He said: “You understand what I mean? You caught it? I said I was not catching it. He said, “There is a Judas here: Dilraj.” I said, “Judas, you go on, let prophet Abraham and myself speak.” “Judas” got real vex, you know. I sent him to the car, and he went and left us there.

A little while after that, he said, “I did not want to tell you all of that revelation in front of that man, that fellow, he is Judas. Let me tell you something; I am a prophet and you are a prophet.” I am not. I said, “Oh, I see.” I did not want to oppose him. I wanted him to say everything that he had to say. He said, “Let me tell you something, God gave me a revelation of the Seven Thunders, I have the Seventh Seal opened, and you are a man of God”. So I listened to him. I said, “You are demon possessed and you need to repent!” He was shocked. I saw him looking for his cutlass (machete).

A little while after that, I saw that he was angry, so I took my car and went back home. He ended up in the insane asylum. These spirits are spirits of insanity, spirits of deception, spirits of the devil, violent spirits. You do not go just arguing and carrying on with these people. Let them believe what they want to believe. Walk away from them. They are demons of persecution. So he went mad. You cannot play around this revelation. You must have the right desires, right motives and right objectives. If you want an excuse for your sins, the devil will give you an excuse for your sins. This poor, deluded man died as a young man just a few years later.

Now, there is a place that a man could reach to the point of no return. When a man hears truth and wants to puff himself up and make himself somebody, there is a place that such a man could reach where he is cut off from almighty God. He remains a false prophet. Men make themselves false prophets, playing around with truth.

MAC AND KEN

Now, this is concerning two of my preaching partners. One of them was actually brought up under my ministry. One of them is Macacrthy and the other is Kennedy. One is a negro and the other is an Indian. We were real buddies. We preached everywhere, we followed the message to the letter, we supported each other and everything was going real smooth; no pride, no self, no ambition. We worked as one team. But something is going to happen here.

Macarthy received his seed of Pentecostalism under Mr. Ray Solomon, who was a great impersonator of W.M. Branham and his message. He later separated from him and formed his own church. He started to preach the message of W.M. Branham. We became associated around that time and preached at different places locally and abroad. Kennedy was added as an exhorter soon after. There was one noticeable thing in the ministering of Macarthy. He never gave up his Pentecostal traits. He continued to speak and pray with a Bible school trained voice, pretending to be under the power of the Holy Ghost by praying very fast and sucking his teeth and vibrating his hand and other parts of his body and embarrassed me several times, but I excused his Pentecostalism because he had not been out from under his Pentecostal pastor very long.

Pastor Lambert came to Trinidad in 1970, preaching a return of Pentecost and coming of the capstone before the rapture and a Bride’s revival to come to the church. We embraced his teachings of the message. I examined his doctrine by the Word and message for almost two years after which I declared it to be true but not before several supernatural experiences from the Lord which confirmed the same.

It was approximately eighteen months after Pastor Macarthy embraced the truth that pastor Lambert was murdered and became the first martyr of the message. Being conscious of Macarthy’s Pentecostalism and religious ambition, I warned him and Kennedy about the arising of false prophets and heresies to lead the church astray, now that the Lord had taken Brother Lambert home, but they failed to heed that advice. They professed that they were immune to such attacks and that the revelation of the outpouring was too plain and simple to be impersonated. As a result they ended up in many deceptions and followed many damnable heresies. They slipped into delusions after delusions, heresies after heresies and corrupted many souls for many years. I will now set in order the course of their deception and wicked deeds from the former years.

IN TIME OF SEPARATION

Now, there were different preachers. I don’t want to call anybody’s name unless I feel led of the Lord to do that. But the fact is that I want to show you in time of separation, what happens. The majority went off, and only a handful of people stood for the Word of God.

Amongst those that stood were Kennedy Madray, Macarthy Griffith, James Chickoree, Shaffeek Mohamed from Guyana and Johnny Beudica from Suriname.

All the ministers and saints were proclaiming that Brother Lambert is a man that was sent to us, and that the revelation is the truth. We were unified; shouting, jumping, praising, fasting and seeking the Lord. By that time the people had gained much confidence in me because of those things that the Lord revealed, because of the truths that I had been preaching which were actually confirmed by God’s servant.

Three churches were always gathered together for communion each month, and the assemblies grew in number with a few hundred people following. The great and mighty presence of the Lord was attendant. You are talking about oneness; you are talking about unity you are talking about love for one another. They would listen to my tapes; they would do anything for me. They would leave from where they lived and spend days at my prayer house - Bethel. They really adored me. They appreciated the way I stood for the Word of the Lord and my influence was very great upon the lives of those people because many of them I led to the Lord, many of them I baptized and answered their questions.

Now, those of you in foreign lands, I want you to note something here. You are now coming to this revelation, over there in India and Africa and different parts of the world. Don’t be fooled, that when you come to this truth and it seems like everybody is in unity and everybody is going to be in one, and you would not have any divisions, and the ministers seem to be in unity, the people seem to be in unity and everybody seems to understand. Don’t follow that mirage. Remember what the prophet said that there are three kinds of believers. Yes! Trouble is ahead.

So the man of God stood up on the pulpit one time and he said something that sunk into my heart and I was watching for that. He said, “Your problem here in Trinidad is that you have too many preachers.” They thought that he was speaking about the island generally, but I knew very well that he was speaking about us; those bunch of ministers who said that they believed.

So this is the point I am trying to make. I am trying to build up the understanding of you and others in Bethel and wherever this revelation will go, to understand that wherever this revelation goes you will have divisions. The Bible said, “And there was a division because of Jesus.” The seventy left him and others left him, and wherever the truth is you must have division because God is separating the light from the darkness. After He separates the light from the darkness, you may have peace and you might have quietness for a long time, but you still have to have your minds alert. Look out, because the devil is going to sit right among you and then shoot that fellow with some poison stuff; quoting Brother Branham from “Christ is the mystery of God revealed.”

So you must learn that, outside there. This book is going out and these tapes are going out right now to educate the people who have embraced this revelation of an outpouring, a revival and all these things, concerning these selfish men, proud men, ambitious men who claim to receive the truth. You can always expect the devil to rise in your assembly, rise in your country, and always view it as the devils from the Euphrates River anointing some ambitious person to destroy many souls.

AMBITION – PRIDE - JEALOUSY

So little did I know, because I was too young in the revelation, that the pride and the ambition, the jealousy and the envy that were in the hearts of Macarthy Griffith, Kennedy Madray and James Chickoree would destroy hundreds of souls and pervert this revelation. And this was the foundation that was laid to cause that destruction and perversion of the truth. Now, the brethren, because I had led many of them to the Lord, they had confidence in me, and I thought, “Why pastor a group when my brothers have their churches right around me. So I was trying to be humble. Now, ministers, never try to be too humble. If God gives you a work to do, go and do it. Yes!

So now, the negative element that was in those preachers was this: They could not understand how they were the pastors of the churches and people would come to me with their questions and ask me for advice, and ask me to pray for them, and come to the prayer house and continue to fast and pray. They could not understand that. Brethren, that laid a foundation for jealousy. That confidence that the brethren had in me, not being the pastor, was a thorn in the flesh of the ministers; and that is where we will pause a little and talk about “ambitious preachers and false prophets.”

Now, in singleness of heart I was trying to work for the Kingdom, doing my best, answering everybody’s questions, and trying to lead everybody right; but I did not know there were such negative elements in preachers, at least not up around the revelation. I know it now. I did not want to believe it then, but jealousy started; that negative element. Do you know that’s the same thing that started in Heaven against Michael and his Kingdom before a separation?

It took me unawares because I was not expecting that from anybody, as the confidence that the people had in me was very great. It could not be easily broken. Just like the people here have confidence in me. It is not very easy to break this confidence. No. Do you know why? Because the people believed the Word that I preached. For many years they looked at the life that I lived, they looked at the counsel that I gave to them, and that confidence grew for many years, and the preachers took some time to destroy it.

That devil came wagging his tail in there, and one ambitious preacher got very jealous. One of those preachers needed a wife and could not find a wife, and he gave him a girlfriend whom he was around. I could not find him a wife, but this preacher found him a wife. Immediately the pulpit was opened up to him, and the confidence of that minister in me, who was brought up under my ministry and teaching, was being destroyed. He started getting away from me. That ambitious preacher was humble as a flower, but was jealous like Lucifer down on the inside. He came and gradually overpowered that congregation and that minister.

After awhile I used to sit in the congregation and hear preaching like this, “When you have a problem you need to come only to your shepherds.” Then they will tell me, “When the people come to you send them to us. We believe that the people are glorifying you to much.” I said, “Okay, I will tell them not to glorify me then.” Then from the pulpit, I started hearing statements like this: “Brethren you could be an idolater, you could become an idolater by giving a man too much glory.”

Well, I felt bad to send the people away when they came with their problems. I did not want to do that. Certain people would come to them with certain problems and they would come secretly and ask me for the answers, and would go tell them to the people in order to gain recognition. Now I did not know what was going on. In the singleness of my heart I was trying to serve the Lord. Everybody was trying to gain recognition with the man of God; everybody was trying to be close buddies with the man of God; everybody wanted the meetings to be held at their church when the man of God, Brother Lambert, visited. I had no church, though I led many to the Lord, as I sent all my converts to their churches and freely ministered to them, in good faith, until the image of jealousy came in.

The time went on and that jealousy worked in such a way that certain members were schooled by these preachers privately, on idolatry; that they were idolizing my little prayer house; that they were idolizing Brother Bruce, and that they should not idolize Brother Bruce. In the midst of all this that was going on, something happened. The man of God was taken home. Before that time, I had preached right on the pulpit (I still have it on tape) that the Lord was going to take Brother Bob home. I had a revelation that the Lord had given to me while he was preaching. On tape, this is what I said that the man of God will be killed! It was spoken on tape. And before he died, he wrote a letter saying, “There are those that would like to take my life for this revelation presently.”And don’t you think, brothers and sisters, that this revelation is something just cheap and common that you go about it any old how. The devil hates everybody who believes this revelation. You identify yourself with this truth, and the world becomes your enemy. Oh yes, don’t you think it is just cheap and common. That man knew that before that time. And the man of God died, and I knew that there was going to be some changes.

SHEPHERD SMITTEN – FAITHFUL FEW STOOD FOR WORD

I felt something in my heart when I heard about the man of God’s death. It was something like this: “Now, the true sheep will be known, and now every make-believer who’s following this thing and following a body of flesh will be exposed.” That’s the way I felt the minute I heard that. I did not want to think that, but something happened. I called the ministers. We went to have a dinner, I said, “I want to say something to you fellows, and that is we have to look forward for false prophets arising. There might be false prophets arise amongst us to separate us, and to pretend that they are the ones to follow this great man of God.” They laughed at the idea and said, “That could not be; this revelation is too plain for any such thing to ever happen.” The time went on and a “prophet” came from the United States, infiltrated the church and put his own doctrine right in there.

So after giving that warning… It is too much to bring out in one little message, and words cannot explain what the church of God went through, but each of you old-timers here had your experience of what went on when that shepherd was smitten. “Smite the shepherd and the sheep shall be scattered.” (Matthew 26: 31).

Children you have not experienced that before. You don’t know what a separation is; you don’t know some of these things. And although you hear about them, you don’t understand how we can be a loving bunch of people here today, and tomorrow there is bitterness, there is hatred and there is jealousy. Now, all those are the devils from hell, devils from the Euphrates. After the shepherd is smitten they just rush in there to take the souls of the sheep. So now, many souls were lost after the man of God was taken home. It was the doing of the Lord. And as far as the Lord revealed to me, it was His doing to show who is who; who are Bride members and who belonged to the devil. The Lord could have had that man standing here today, but the Lord does certain things for certain reasons. And hear what Brother Paul said: “I know that after my departure grievous wolves shall enter in not spearing the flock” (Acts 20), and that is exactly what happened. Jesus said, “Smite the shepherd and the sheep shall be scattered.” So after that happened, the devil struck.

Now beloved, I am still laying emphasis that before the devil struck, he had to have men with a certain condition of heart. Yes! And these men, actually had the heart’s condition to receive the devil, and they were waiting right there. They were full of jealousy, full of malice, full of hatred and could smile through it and hide that. Yes!

RESURRECTION HERESY

So something happened, and that is; after the death of Brother Bob, a delegation came down from New England with the “revelation” of what was going to happen from then on. It was the revelation of Jim Rosenberry and Dale Graybill. And they came down there very urgently with tapes that were stolen from the Library of G.C.C. Piracy is stealing. Later, I would come to find out that there was a resurrection group which arose and they were fighting Carlton Mcgahee who was pastoring the church at that time, and they were causing a lot of havoc. And they were the great “spiritual” ones, and Jim Rosenberry was the author of this resurrection doctrine. He approached certain ones in the congregation at New England, and he tried to preach that resurrection doctrine; stating that there would be a completion of the ministry of Christ by the first resurrection. Brother Bob never did believe in a resurrection doctrine. He fought that “tooth and nail”, when the people tried to resurrect Brother Branham. He said, “When God finishes with a man he puts him in the grave”; and he fought that because there is no scripture for it, and Brother Bob would not stand for such cultish teachings.

So they formulated a doctrine, borrowed the tapes from the library, which Brother Bob did not want to go out, and illegally recopied them. The tapes which he sent to Trinidad, he demanded them back. When he did that, I suspected that that man knew something that I needed to know, and that something was hiding here in New England, and I was inquisitive enough to investigate. But it took me a long time to find out what that man was really hiding. And he knew the danger of it; he knew what could happen if he gave out those tapes before the time.

So these men, they brought tapes to Trinidad which they had stolen from G.C.C. by illegally copying them, and making books of them. So I wanted to find out what was going on so they invited me and my wife to a big dinner in a restaurant. Poor country girl! I guess it was the first time she ever had anything like that. She was scared to death. I don’t think she ever went to another one. So they sat there and they started to bring out their revelations. I was not interested in the food; I was interested in what these men were up to. So I listened to them carefully.

So not knowing that they had stolen those tapes, pirated them, they handed me a bunch of tapes. I said, “Thank you.” And then they brought out a pile of books put together with the quotations of Brother Bob and they called them “the third testament.” You know we have the first testament and second testament, which are the Old and New Testament. So this was a “third testament.” So I took that pile of books; I still have them at home. So I listened to them carefully. I don’t oppose people too quickly; I like to give a hearing ear. And that was the attitude I had towards the man of God when I met him. Many people said he was false, but I gave him a hearing ear, and I went and searched out what he was preaching for two years before I confirmed that; because I had a certain instruction from the Lord, back there in my wilderness experience, and the Lord told me; “As your body is stiff upon this bed so shall you walk with this man’s (Brother Branham’s) message.” I was very afraid that I twist off the message of the prophet, Brother Branham. So I was not going to accept any man too easily, and Brother Bob knew that. I was not going to accept any revelation until I first proved that in the Word. Yes! Yet I would not maintain a bad spirit; I would hear you out. And that is what I do; I hear out every fanatic. Every false prophet who rose up, I gave them a fair chance and I even sent them up to the pulpit to declare their revelation. You will find that right here in these messages which I am bringing. I deal very fairly with them. I say, “Come declare your revelation, put it in the Word of God; and if you cannot put your revelation in the Word of God, then you would hear from me.”

So some of these brothers; Brother Ramkumar is here, Brother Joseph is here. They were there in some of these showdowns. I had those false prophets right on the pulpit. I said, “Declare your revelation. If you cannot prove it, you are going out of the church and will have your own church, because you are a “prophet” and I am a pastor. I cannot pastor a prophet.” How is a pastor going to pastor a prophet? No!

So Jim and Dale came down there as the great powers of God and they had “the third testament.” And they were talking some secrets because they did not trust me. They were talking some secrets with Macarthy, Kennedy and Chickoree, and I knew that there was some secrecy going on, but I did not understand that they had brought a resurrection doctrine. These men brought a resurrection doctrine to Trinidad. Brother Bob hated that doctrine, he fought against that doctrine, and he called it the devil’s doctrine. Yes!

Afterwards I sat in the churches and they were sort of “cold-shouldering” me and not inviting me to preach, and I started hearing that resurrection doctrine from the pulpit. But they were preaching that resurrection doctrine in a smart way: “All that Brother Bob said must come to pass, everything that Brother Branham said must come to pass, it must be fulfilled.” So I caught on and I knew that the devil was moving. I said to myself; “This is a resurrection doctrine, and I am going to fight that resurrection doctrine.” You talk about when a spirit starts moving.

Brethren, coming back to my point; these men had the bedding ground to receive falsehood. And do you know what carried them away? They got a revelation that Bruce does not know anything about, and they have tapes that Bruce does not know anything about. And they thought that they have now conquered Bruce, they know more than Bruce and they would exalt themselves, and the people would follow them and come to them and adore them. That is the truth. Not one lie is made up. Here is a man (Brother Ramkumar) who is a witness, and I have a whole church full of witnesses concerning the rising of these spirits through the many years.

FIVE CHURCHES DECEIVED

And that resurrection doctrine drafted in Shaffeek Mohammed from Guyana; it drafted in Johnny Beudica, my interpreter in Suriname. The man could have spoken about five or seven different languages. For your information, he died recently. Yes! And there was a conglomeration of these spirits. All three churches joined together. Guyana joined together with them; Suriname joined together with them, and there was unity. You are talking about real love, and hugging and kissing. My! I tell you; crying. And all of them came together and they had a few “unbelievers”, among them, which was myself with about a dozen people. You talk about shouting! You talk about praising! What I am trying to show you is that those demons from the Euphrates River could shout too, and they could dance. And they came in there with that resurrection doctrine, and they made us look real small. So I got a chance on the pulpit and I said, “All this resurrection doctrine is of the devil! We don’t believe it.” Oh, that broke out a war and we were ready to fight. Yes!

So this resurrection doctrine was built in a very subtle way that could have really deceived alot of people. Very subtle! And I will tell you what fooled those people, brethren. What fooled those people is that they had just come to the revelation; just like you in India and Africa. And many of you over there have more knowledge today than the people who had just come to the revelation back there for about eighteen months when the pastor went on. So they were not equipped. And then there were these men with this bedding ground to accept, not only a resurrection doctrine, but to accept the doctrine of the suspected murderer of their very shepherd. I never knew that those men had such self and pride and ambition down in them.

JIM SOUNDING TRUMPET OF RESURRECTION

So now, this is the core of the whole resurrection doctrine. They believed that soon after the death of Brother Bob, the trumpet sounded (I Thessalonians 4: 16); “The Lord Himself shall descend from heaven with a shout”, which is passed, “and the voice,” is passed, and now “the trumpet” is starting to sound. But the trumpet sounding must bring the dead from the grave. Do you see how they connected the resurrection? So they said, “It is a resurrection doctrine.” Now, hear the smartness of the devil. Now, the devil put into those boys’ minds; nice boys. Yes! I communicated with them, they were very nice boys. I cannot say that they were evil men and bad-spirited. I am just saying that they were deceived of the devils from the Euphrates River, and the devil was going to use them to destroy many souls; and they had a certain bedding ground, they had certain ambitions. Yes! It is a dangerous thing to have self and pride and ambition. All that Dale was studying was to make money through his gas station. He never found time to dedicate himself, but he got carried away by Jim with this resurrection heresy. I am just letting you know how they formed that resurrection doctrine.

They believed that Jim started to blow the trumpet. Yes! And that was the trumpet of the resurrection. Yes! They don’t call him a messenger, but they believe that he started to blow the trumpet of the resurrection. Now, the trumpet of the resurrection doctrine is this. They embraced a resurrection doctrine and projected that the secret of life after death must come by the first resurrection and will be upon the earth for about thirty to thirty-five days, when it will fulfill all the promises of God made to Brother Branham, termed as his New Ministry. That will be the full revelation of the seven thunders and the third pull. It will bring rapturing faith to the Bride of Christ. Alright, now listen! Hear this catch, and this is what carried away those big, jealous fellows. They thought that they were going to get a revelation now that superseded everybody. “Bruce is in a corner now, the people are following us now.” You are talking about a unity. By then they had killed my influence. People ran from me when they saw me. Yes! They did not want to see me, they just ran when they saw me like if I was a spirit. Yes! And then they labeled me as being possessed of demons from the Euphrates also. Yes!

So the whole secret of this resurrection cult and heresy is a damnable thing! They spoke about a general resurrection which is the first resurrection, and believed that in that resurrection would come up the true seven thunders and the true seventh seal. And when that happens, it brings the secret of life after death, and then it is brought to the Bride. And when the Bride gets that she will be able to translate herself and she will be able to go in the rapture. It is a lie of the devil! Brother Bob taught no such doctrine.

Alright, they took that and they typed it to Jesus. Do you remember when Jesus died, He went and conquered hell, death and the grave and He arose on the eighth day with the secret of life after death? So they were typing it out to Jesus. Brother Bob never believed in any such thing, and he rebuked many men for speaking such things. He said that he rather have four men go to the back of the church and beat him until he had no more eyes and no more nose and no more mouth, than to project such doctrines and attach such things to the ministry of Christ.

With his humility I believe that God used that man in a special way, and the things that he taught were left to be understood by people who loved the Lord and for the Holy Spirit to reveal to them.

Because of that resurrection doctrine, the people here of New England, who loved the Lord and loved Brother Branham and looked for an outpouring of the Holy Spirit and looked for the revival, went through hell! Yes! They debated with the elders, they fought Brother McGahee, they fought the people and they got a big following, they got a gathering of so-called spiritual people. The children of God stood up against all of that, and you are witnesses. And bringing that resurrection doctrine, they lined that out, thinking that there was going to be a resurrection very soon, and when the resurrection takes place, the secret of life after death to change the body and bring the resurrection and carry the people in the rapture was going to be very soon.

By this time I was facing Macarthy Griffith and Kennedy Madray with this doctrine down there, while the church here was facing these resurrectionists down at Durham. I was opposing them. So now, I used to communicate with them. I am talking about the local preachers. They were still trying to convince me.

DATE SET - 1976

So there was a date set for this great happening; the resurrection and the secret of life after death coming up, and it was the 4^th July 1976, which was two hundred years of independence for America. And they based their thoughts upon the statement of Brother Branham that no nation ever passed two hundred years of independence. So since it would have been two hundred years of America’s independence, they expected the first resurrection, the seven thunders, the secret of life after death, the coming of the Capstone, the Bride’s revival, the fulfillment of all the promises of God, and then the rapture to take place. Their predictions failed, caused the loss of souls and there was a division among them. Many became worldly and involved in the vices of Sodom. They went back to their televisions, sports, fornications, adultery and immoral dressing. They expected some great happenings again to be fulfilled in 1978. It did not come to pass.

Now, when that date failed, I spoke to Jim personally and I questioned him about his resurrection doctrine. He could not open his mouth, he had no scripture. I had him for about two to three hours. I had him here in front of Brother George and he could not defend his doctrine. All that he kept on saying was, “He must resurrect, he must resurrect.” I said, “You are in a delusion of the devil, you have no scripture whatsoever.” He still chose to believe that resurrection doctrine and go on with that resurrection doctrine. He was in a delusion of the devil. I faced these men, I even faced Dale, and they could not answer to the cause of Christ.

Alright. This is how their doctrine was built. They believed that there were no more preachers, so they started preaching a doctrine that people should be left without pastor-ship to “corrupt the seed”, as it must corrupt before life springs forth; (in type of a natural seed). And they quoted St John 12: 24:

<Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.>

So another doctrine was that neither Brother Branham, the apostles nor Brother Bob was truly born again. Yes! The new birth was only going to come from the grave. After this resurrection they would come and tell us how to be born again and that “born again” would be the secret of life after death. That is the thing that was involved. And Jim told me personally that now that Brother Bob died, all the tapes were supposed to go around the world. I looked at that man as a big fool. He stood up on the pulpit, and in a parable he was preaching that Brother Branham was not born again. He said, “John the Baptist was not born again. Oh, I bite my tongue! Oh!” “Revelation” went out. That hypocrite, false prophet, anointed of the devil from the Euphrates River, led all those people astray! You will meet your days! I spoke to him personally and tried to convince him for hours that he was wrong, and he could not answer to my questions. Brother, I had him in my own house for about two to three hours, and I showed him everywhere. I said, “Give me one scripture for your resurrection doctrine?” He could not do it. He said, “Isaac was one received as from the dead.” I said, “That is not any scripture.” I said, “Show me one place for your resurrection doctrine? You cannot show me! I challenge you!” That man was still determined to follow that resurrection doctrine.

Alright! I met Dale in a car and I showed him a couple scriptures. We did not have a long conversation. I was trying to win this man from this heresy. Yes! He said, “The time is going to come when all shall hear the voice of the son of man and they shall come forth from the grave.” I said, “The Bible never said that.” He said, “What? The Bible never said that?” I said, “The Bible said, son of God.” Boy, that man did not know what to say. He still continued in his doctrine. Yes!

So now, this was the resurrection doctrine that came our way, and those people followed that resurrection doctrine.

Now, closing remarks. You are getting a little picture, a little vision of how things went and how the devil moves. Alright! Over here, a man was arrested for the murder of Brother Bob, questioned by the police. Lo and behold, Jim and Dale flew down to Trinidad to defend that hypocrite, that monster. They gathered us ministers together, trying to convince us that he is a holy man, he is a eunuch, he is this and he is that. I had my both ears opened and my eyebrows lifted. I was not going to accept anything. I sat and heard them out.

Now, not knowing what was going on here in New England; I had little or no communication with the brethren here. Things were in confusion, wars were going on here. God was dividing light from darkness. Beloved, it was war going on in the Caribbean. All those ministers joined to fight just a dozen people; pitched us out of the churches. We ended up in a house, but the Lord was with us. You talk about some messages preached during that time. You talk about the anointing of the Lord, yes, with just about a little over a dozen people, and we were worshipping the Lord, praising the Lord, cutting down those heresies.

JIM & DALE INTRODUCED TEDDY

So I am here to let you know that the two men who introduced Teddy; that serpent seed, seed of the devil, Cain’s seed, with a murderous spirit like his father, were Jim and Dale! They came and introduced Teddy to the churches there, and to Macarthy Griffith, James Chickoree, Kennedy Madaray, and I was present. And I heard that man speak and I was in all their meetings. This is not any hearsay. I was in all their meetings, but they had me like the scapegoat, and the little group that followed me. I still attended. We tried to unite, not even knowing what was going on. And this man was like a god among the people. It will take some time to tell you about this character and his doctrine that would eventually destroy hundreds of souls and close down five churches in the Caribbean, by that one devil and that resurrection doctrine. So now, what this hypocrite did was, he knowing that he had his own plan and program, he came in under the resurrection brothers for cover and he professed that he believed in that resurrection doctrine. But he was the last man who wanted to see Brother Branham or any of God’s servants come up from the grave because he was a stinking adulterer. A filthy, nasty adulterer living with a woman in the congregation. Yes! That is what transpired.

Now, watch something with those devils from the Euphrates always. Friends, they cannot live a holy life. They are immoral spirits. Don’t matter what prophetic ministry they claim, notice that they cannot live that life. They always commit fornication, adultery and every other thing that goes with it.

I came to Connecticut, U.S.A. at God's appointed time, confirming the promises to them and emphasizing their fulfilment. Several from the resurrection group came to hear the Word of God. Dale’s mother believed and was miraculously delivered from that doctrine. Dale took great offence in her stand against him and his doctrine. For a time, he attended the services each time I visited the saints, just to be defiant. He was rebuked sharply for his unbelief on many occasions. He became very bitter against the pastor of the assembly, the saints and myself. He would be one of the chief instruments who the devil would now use to bring persecution upon the church and upon me. His present condition is that he was recently sentenced, in January 2009, to four years in prison for running a multi-million dollar scheme. You cannot fight the Word of God and the people of God and come out right.

This article was taken from the net:

DALE GRAYBILL SENTENCED TO FOUR YEARS IN PRISON

“MAN WHO RAN MULTI-MILLION DOLLAR PONZI SCHEME

SENTENCED TO FOUR YEARS IN FEDERAL PRISON

Nora R. Dannehy, Acting United States Attorney for the District of Connecticut, announced that DALE L. GRAYBILL, 64, of North Haven, was sentenced today by Senior United States District Judge Peter C. Dorsey in New Haven to 48 months of imprisonment, followed by three years of supervised release, for operating a multi-million dollar Ponzi scheme in which he solicited investments for fictitious investment programs… GRAYBILL did not return the funds, but instead used the funds to pay his own personal expenses, including credit card bills, gambling expenses, and checks to cash.”

I am going to give you a little history of Mr. Dale, to show you that money spirit after thirty-six years that put him in jail. There was a man called Gordon Lockrow who was the treasurer of the church in Connecticut. Both of them got together and plotted to steal the church’s funds. I had cause in 1980 to correct his wife; Mickey Lockrow, for her big mouth and long tongue.

Now, people from all parts of the world came to Trinidad. This woman used to visit my home. I stayed in their house. So I know what I am talking about. This woman was devil possessed. She was from Japan, a Japanese woman. Now, I am going to find out this right in my house, that this woman was devil possessed. Now, this make-believer was very, very cunning.

I went to the States and stayed at their home and found out that she was ruling over her husband, who was a deacon. Everybody’s business in the church, he had to tell her about it everyday.

So three women got together in my presence and they were arguing about something. I called it to the attention of Brother George. I said, “Brother George, that’s the devil moving. Those three women arguing right there, and we two ministers standing right here and they don’t have a bit of respect for us.” I said, “The devil is working through them right now on the porch. And besides that, this woman here is trying to give this certain brother a prophetic office.”

PLAN OF SATAN TO DESTROY MINISTER & CHURCH

So, I turned my back and left the country. Pastor George made no beans with that spirit. He exposed that spirit, and when he exposed that spirit, somehow or the other she realized that I had something to do with exposing her spirit. O, she turned into a beast overnight.

Her husband was the treasurer who held all the church finances at his home. The pastor did not want that otherwise he would have had it in his basement, locked up. And she knew that secret that I never knew, because I never wanted to know where it was. I never saw one coin.

And that woman turned into a raving beast, and she wanted to get at me, and I was quite in Trinidad, and she could not get a hold of me. So that woman thought that she was going to use this as a weapon to nasty my name.

Friends, they were upset about my correction and Brother George’s correction of these women. And Dale was upset because his mother, Sister Graybill, was delivered from his resurrection heresy, and came to church and would not have much to do with him. So they intended to crucify Brother George and intended to crucify Bruce. So now, this was the plot.

She being that instrument, the ringleader, and the one who planned everything, they contacted Dale who hated the church, and who was a rich man who had connections with the press and everything, and they got together, intending to get Bruce out of this country from preaching to you, get him locked up and bring down the church. That is wickedness, that is unrighteousness!

So they brought back the money to the church, and he said, “I don’t want to be the treasurer again,” and he handed it over to Brother Howie and Brother George. (Much of the church finances were missing. It was later told Pastor Parylla that Mickey and others took the money.) Soon after that, they spread a rumour that the church was going to take that money and ship it to Bruce down to Trinidad, went and informed the police, and said that if the police did not move very quickly, they were going to lose that money. That is a money devil! And the government ordered the money to be confiscated, so six sheriffs went down there, confiscated the money, and put it in the bank. Dale, Lockrow, Mickey and the resurrection people were behind it, they wanted the church’s money. That is what Dale is paying for right now, for the love of money! So the case went on. So they intended to nail me properly.

By that satanic plan, the pastor: George Parylla, ministers Carlton Mcgahee, Kenny McGahee and Deacon Howard Aitken were hauled to Court. The church of God at Connecticut was scandalized as a cult by the local media. Other backsliders of previous years were grouped together with this new group around the church. Some forced themselves into the service. They defied the pastors, saints and church regulations by their attendance. They hoped for a physical confrontation to file lawsuits against the deacons. The service was closed at intervals.

I went to Connecticut in support of the church while the battles raged. Pastor George was mindful to put Graybill and others out, but I told him that God’s Word is stronger than such rebels, let them be seated. I looked Dale in his eyes, by God’s grace and the Holy Ghost. His countenance fell, his pride was humbled with bended head, and the Word cut through his rebellious spirit.

LIES OF DALE GRAYBILL AND OTHERS

The newspapers picked up the scandal, and those make-believers told their lies about this “criminal” called, Bruce, took me and my family’s picture, put it on the television through New York as a dangerous criminal, one who is a Jim Jones, with six million people viewing that. They ran my name on the papers, one after the next. Dale, you are responsible for that! Lockrow received his share and he died of cancer! All those souls perished for coming against the Word of God, for their pride and their delusion and ambition!

They said, “That money is our tithes and our offerings and we want it back.” The court considered that everybody who leaves the Catholic Church could sue the Catholic Church for the money they gave, and also the Lutherans and Methodist.” And they did not know what to do with that case. So it lingered on for two or three years and it was a lot of headache and a lot of trouble.

So it was about three months after that happened, “The Bomb”-Trinidad newspaper picked it up and they blew that up into such a big thing. They put it on the headline there, “Jim Jones in Trinidad. It looks like Jim Jones never died in Guyana and he has reached down to Trinidad”, there is a dangerous commune in this country in Freeport, the place is Bethel, and there is a man called Bruce, he is a dangerous criminal, beware of him, he is expecting a shipment of gold and silver, he claims to be a prophet etc.

Dale Graybill was on this program since 1981 to tell the world that I am a false prophet; both him and Gordon Lockrow. None of their carnal weapons have prospered up till now. When the devil is out for a man of God he will lie on him. The second thing he would do is put him into prison and thirdly he will kill him, if God permits him to do so. That was what the Devil did to Joseph. Were it not for God’s mercy, he would have died in that prison.

SCANDAL - SOULS SAVED

And when that was published in Trinidad, some came to see this “Jim Jones” and they remained right there.” So instead of destroying God’s people, through all that nasty scandal, God sent people to believe the Word of God. It is a rebuke in the face of the devil? And that scandal on the papers never caused one person to leave this assembly because they knew it was a nasty, filthy lie. They even accused us of making pulls for money and using it for individual needs and not for the spiritual needs of the people.

How many say, “Those are lies?” [Congregation shouts, “Lies!”] Lie of the devil! We make no money pulls here, we don’t even compel anybody to pay their tithes. You are a big liar! Everybody gets money in this church. Let me see your hands who gets free money in the church. [The entire congregation lifts their hands.] A bunch of liars! So these are excerpts from the newspapers.

Now, I am saying that Dale Graybill was fully responsible for this, Lockrow was fully responsible for this, and Lockrow was trying to tack upon me, together with Graybill, that I believe that I am a prophet, from way back down there. They borrowed these lies from Macarthy Griffith, Kennedy Madray and Teddy, and propagated them and tried to fight me for all those years. After, the Lord gave us a word that we will prevail over him.

WORD OF THE LORD – WATER BUFFALO BOUND

So while in Connecticut, I was laying on Brother George’s bed, and towards the morning I dreamt that I was fishing in a pond. Suddenly a monstrous creature took my bait. I wondered what kind of fish that could be since the water was not very clear, but muddy. However, I pulled hard and was able to pull up the creature. Lo and behold it was a water buffalo. It attempted to go back into the water. Knowing that it was too strong to be held by my hands, I ran around a tree and wrapped the line around the tree tightly and the animal was bounded. I woke up and wondered about that dream. I told it to Brother George and he also wondered. But we suspected that it pertained to the existing church condition. I said, “It is the rich man and the Lord will bind him.” It had its fulfilment in a matter of weeks.

Dale Graybill dropped a note in the plate. He said, “I will talk to you or Brother George.” I said, “Okay, we’ll see you on Monday night, come.” He said, “I want this matter settled, I want this money to be returned to the church. I am wrong in what I did.” I said, “Okay, you need to repent.” Oh it was a shocking thing, but the Lord had showed me that in that spiritual dream what would happen. I told Brother George about it, he said, “Yes, this is that dream fulfilled” and the Lord showed me how smoothly that thing was going to be settled out after a while. The man came there, with tears in his eyes. He said, “I repent this morning and I am going to return the money to the church and I am going to have this court case settled. I repent, I am wrong for doing what I did. I did that in anger.” And the money was returned to the church by the court. It rightfully belonged to the church of God. His accomplice in the matter, the treasurer, never repented. His whole family was destroyed spiritually, and he died not long after. When Dale and Lockrow saw that they were going to lose the case, he wanted to settle out of court.

Now, hear the scheme of this thief. I am saying that Dale is a thief! They caused the church the problem, and then Dale, that money loving Satan, turned right around and told Brother George, “You will have to pay my lawyer’s fee of five thousand dollars,” after he caused that trouble. That is what you are paying for in jail right now! You may not believe that but God cursed you at that very moment and put you in jail today. Yes, robbed the church of five thousand dollars and some of you put your hands in the church funds and stole it before Lockrow brought it back to the church. You are a Judas! You have a Judas spirit inside of you!

That old warrior, Brother George, would have fought him down to the last. He said, “Brother Bruce, this man caused me all that trouble and wants me to pay five thousand dollars, he is not going to get any money!” You are talking about an old battle axe. Only I could have calmed him down. I said, “Yes, yes, yes, Brother George, it’s a terrible thing that this man wants to do, but why all this running up and down in the court?” I said, “Remember Brother Branham won the tax case and then they said that they would settle for thirty thousand dollars, and Brother Branham paid it?” He said, “Yes!” I said, “Let us give him the five thousand dollars, he will pay for it someday.” With reluctance Brother George took out that five thousand dollars and paid it, and they returned the funds to the church after they stole what they wanted the first time.

I am saying, “Dale, you are in prison for stealing, and the worst crime that you ever committed was to take that old man to court and take Brother Kenny to court, and take the others to court, for the church tithes and the church offerings. And when I challenged you and wrote you a letter and stated the mess that you caused on the newspapers against my name out of a lying tongue, you said it was the newspapers, it was not you. God will decide who did that and who was responsible.

I wrote him a letter after he repented on the pulpit with tears. I said, “Who is going to clean up all this mess throughout America and throughout Trinidad? Why don’t you write a letter and let everybody know that that is not so and I was not going to receive any money.” He said, “Well, it was just the newspapers that did that.” Yes, but who was behind the newspapers? He was head and head with the news people. Being a businessman he had known them personally and he caused those things to be put in the newspapers and brought the church under persecution. The Lord sent him stronger delusion. He went out and married a backslidden woman, twice divorced, and yet claims to be born again and have a revelation of Christ and the message of the hour.

Matthew 19:9 <... and whoso marrieth her which is put away doth commit adultery.>

He still believes and is bewitched by that resurrection doctrine, though he is sitting in jail today, and from jail he wrote a thirty-three page letter concerning this resurrection doctrine. I was hoping that that jail sentence would help this man to humble his heart, but it did not. From prison he writes long letters teaching his cultish doctrines to a group of followers. I am going to address part of a letter that was written from prison by Dale Graybill. And why it is that this has become important is that I can see a greater delusion in the making that will go into public shortly, and it is called “The third Testament.” And God has allowed this letter to fall into our hands.

“THE THIRD TESTAMENT” –

SIN & IMMORALITY JUSTIFIED BY RESURRECTION HERESY

Now, that “third testament” will be misrepresenting the Bible, misrepresenting Brother Branham, and misrepresenting your pastor, Brother Lambert. His name would be attached, together with Brother Branham’s, and it will be misrepresenting you at G.C.C. and it will be misrepresenting the ministry that is now proclaiming the Word of God. I believe that the Lord sent that our way in order to counteract this “third testament” before it is launched.

Both Dale and Jim project their teachings as “The third testament of the last days.” They presume that a special grace was given to them and their followers to commit sins of any kind and be justified in the sight of God. This includes sexual immoralities, cussing, smoking, gambling, stealing and lying. His beliefs are directly connected with the crimes he committed. He has no remorse and believes that he is in prison for righteousness sake. His letter, circulated to his followers, fully expressed this, and identifies him with Jesus Christ, and both Paul the apostle and Joseph in their imprisonments.

Quote Dale’s letter: “The Lord allowed Joseph to be put in Prison… Also God allowed Paul to be put in prison and look at the letters that he wrote while he was there. So here I am in prison and yet I am free…We were reckless and impulsive… disobedient and unlawful. We were disrespectful to the ministers and elders. We refused to pay tithes. We couldn’t live the life required by the Law of the church and we totally disobeyed the Lord in that regard.

…We the sheep were scattered. We lived unholy lives and never went to church. We became outwardly worldly and cut our hair and watched TV. We smoked and drank and divorced our husbands and wives… Through all the sin and disobedience and disgrace we remained a virgin to God’s Word … We rest completely in his grace and his life is growing in our souls… The Faith Seed of the New Birth has produced what the Scripture and the message predicted.”

Now, the whole picture is that the trumpet which Jim Rosenberry is blowing is granting a certain grace. This grace is extended beyond the measure of every other age in any time in the Bible, to permit these people to live what they want and be born again for thirty-six years, live like a dog, do what they want and they are being matured, they are being perfected, the thunders are being revealed to them and they are ready for the rapture. I believe that is the heights of deception. It is blasphemy to take sin and unrighteousness and justify them in God’s Bible, the message, justify them in the name of Lambert and the name of Brother Branham, and claim to be going in the rapture.

Romans 6:1-2 <… Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound?

God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?>

Now, this mystery that is coming out from under the trumpet is contradicting this scripture, because they are saying, “Let us continue living in the world and grace will abound.” So in so many words, they are saying that they could live what they want, break the Word and live in unrighteousness, but they received a seed way down there and that seed that is inside of them is eventually going to perfect them. Now, that is contrary to Romans 6:1-2. We cannot be perfected by continuing in sin. Brother Paul said, “God forbid it!”

Now, I have never heard of such blasphemy! The scripture tells what will happen to such people who want to walk in unrighteousness? When you want to walk in unrighteousness and do what you want, the Lord is going to send you strong delusion, that you will believe a lie and be damned by that lie.

I want them to show me one group from Genesis to Revelation that became perfect by living unrighteous. Show me one example in the Bible where anybody applied that plan for their perfection. None of the apostles did.

CORRUPT THE SEED BY SIN

Now, where did they get their scripture from for their doctrine? St. John 12:23-25. Let me see if this is a scripture here that permits us to sin.

St. John 12: 23-24 <And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour is come, that the Son of man should be glorified.

Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit.>

This scripture they have used here to show that the Bride is a type of Christ, and if she is a type of Christ now, she is the corn of wheat that must fall into the ground and corrupt. So everybody who is born again and who received that seed way back down there in the seventies, they have to go down to Sodom and corrupt themselves. If you don’t get corrupted, you will abide alone. But if you get corrupted over there in Sodom, then out of that corruption life would spring forth from that corruption of adultery and fornication, and lying, and stealing, and all kinds of sins of Sodom. Now, tell me if that is not strong delusion? That is enough delusion to damn a man! This seed must corrupt! Isn’t that dumb, brothers and sisters? Is that scripture speaking of the Bride, brethren? [Congregation says, “No!”] Or is it speaking of the resurrection of our Lord Jesus? [Congregation says, “Amen!”] It is speaking of our Lord being crucified on the cross, and then after His crucifixion, then he arose from the dead and He brought forth much fruit, and the fruit is the Christian church.

Brother Branham taking that and typing it to the Bride now, this is where he placed it. He never took that and placed that up here that you can go and live in sin and then become perfected. This is how Brother Branham typed that. He said, the Bride was the corn of wheat and she was martyred in the middle ages, and being martyred in the middle ages, she is now going to be restored and she came back through Luther, and through Wesley, and through Pentecost, and she is coming to perfection. These people took that and found a scripture where they can go and corrupt the seed over in Sodom and come back.

When he had that case going on for a big money scam, we allowed this man to come to this tabernacle, in pity, in his sinful condition, hoping that he would repent and the Lord would soften his heart. But now he is sitting in jail, and instead of humbling himself, this man has written a thirty-three page letter to his people, stating his doctrine, praising Jim, and the summary of the letter is that Dalton Bruce is the son of perdition, he is the devil, the son of perdition. He further accused me of claiming to be the voice of the archangel.

I wrote him a letter denouncing such as lies, and solicited the congregations at G.C.C. and Bethel to denounce the same. His accusations from the letter was read before both churches by the pastors, and all the ministers, elders, deacons and the entire congregations by a one hundred percent lift of hands denounced such accusations as lies. They were very disappointed and alarmed at such accusations, having sat under my ministry, some for almost forty years, and knowing my integrity and what I stand for.

When I think of your deeds Dale, my faith grows very dim, very dim, and this letter that I have written to you is going to determine who you are, and who is the son of perdition, and who is the Judas. This is going to determine that in a few days time. But a booklet will be written in any case, and your name will be up on the internet as “Dale, the prisoner of Satan.” And also in that booklet there will be Jim and your resurrection group and your third testament that is about ready to be launched. It would have no place in the hearts of God’s children nowhere! In that third testament, this is the doctrine that they are going to bring out. And sooner or later they are going to launch the third testament with this resurrection doctrine, and it is a big secret.

These men claimed to be born again. They are corrupting the seed. Jim’s wife was under so much pressure that she committed suicide. I am talking about “prophet” Jim, “the man that is blowing the trumpet.” Yes! I believe that was too much for his wife, and she committed suicide, and the group went down to Sodom to live in fornication, the women divorced and remarried. Yes! They claimed that they went out there drinking and smoking. Yes!

So now, those are the two men who introduced that fellow, Teddy, down there in Trinidad, and he finished up the job. That man finished up the job there to destroy all those souls. I was opposing him from the pulpit and personally until he cuffed me on my shoulder, and spread all kinds of rumours, which I will tell you about a little later, and we had an open showdown, right in the church, and I believe that man had plans to take my life. Yes, that devil! I backed off from him, and the story went on for another five years, where this false prophet, seed of the serpent, Cain’s seed, working for five years amongst those people until he destroyed most of those souls.

So now, the rest of it we will pick up on another night. But how many are enjoying this exposition? [Congregation says, Amen!”] Remember, out of all of this, we are laying emphasis upon when people hear the truth, how self and pride and ambition overtake them and they are led astray to destroy themselves and destroy many souls. These are living examples. So may the Lord bless your hearts. Let us all stand and sing a song.

[Congregation sings, “We are the people of the Lord.”]
