b! To11! #i)ks; note$ e6angelist; in 12+1. VISION OF THE BODY OF CHRIST AND THE END-TIME MINISTRIES My message begins July 25, about 2:30 in the morning at Winnipeg, Canada. I had hardly fallen asleep hen the !ision and the re!elation that "od ga!e me #ame before me. $he !ision #ame three times, e%a#tly in detail, the morning of July 25, &'(&. I as so stirred and so mo!ed by the re!elation that this has #hanged my #omplete outloo) upon the body of Christ, and upon the end*time ministries. $he greatest thing that the #hur#h of Jesus Christ has e!er been gi!en lies straight ahead. It is so hard to help men and omen to reali+e and understand the thing that "od is trying to gi!e to his people in the end times. I re#ei!ed a letter se!eral ee)s ago from one of our nati!e e!angelists do n in ,fri#a, do n in -airobi. $his man and his ife ere on their ay to $anganyi)a. $hey #ould neither read nor #ould they rite, but e had been supporting them for o!er t o years. ,s they entered into the territory of $anganyi)a, they #ame a#ross a small !illage. $he entire !illage as e!a#uating be#ause of a plague that had hit the !illage. .e #ame a#ross nati!es that ere eeping, and he as)ed them hat as rong.

$hey told him of their mother and father ho had suddenly died, and they had been dead for three days. $hey had to lea!e. $hey ere afraid to go in/ they ere lea!ing them in the #ottage. .e turned and as)ed them here they ere. $hey pointed to the hut and he as)ed them to go ith him, but they refused. $hey ere afraid to go. $he nati!e and his ife ent to this little #ottage and entered in here the man and oman had been dead for three days. .e simply stret#hed forth his hand in the name of the 0ord Jesus Christ, and spo)e the man1s name and the oman1s name and said, 2In the name of the 0ord Jesus Christ, I #ommand life to #ome ba#) to your bodies.2 Instantaneously these t o heathen people ho had ne!er )no n Jesus Christ as their 3a!ior sat up and immediately began to praise "od. $he spirit and the po er of "od #ame into the life of those people. $o us that may seem strange and a phenomenon, but that is the beginning of these end*time ministries. "od is going to ta)e the do*nothings, the nobodies, the unheard*of, the no*a##ounts. .e is going to ta)e e!ery man and e!ery oman and he is going to gi!e to them this outpouring of the 3pirit of "od. In the boo) of ,#ts e read that 2In the last days,2 "od said, 2I ill pour out my 3pirit upon all flesh.2 I onder if e reali+ed hat he meant hen "od said, 2I ill pour out my 3pirit upon all flesh.2 I do not thin) I fully reali+e nor #ould I understand the fullness of it,

and then I read from the boo) of Joel: 24e glad then, ye #hildren of 5ion, and re6oi#e in the 0ord your "od: for he hath gi!en you the former rain moderately, and he ill #ause to #ome do n for you the rain, the former rain, and the latter rain2 7Joel 2:238. It is not only going to be the rain, the former rain and the latter rain, but he is going to gi!e to his people in these last days a double portion of the po er of "od9 ,s the !ision appeared to me after I as asleep, I suddenly found myself in a great high distan#e. Where I as, I do not )no . 4ut I as loo)ing do n upon the earth. 3uddenly the hole earth #ame into my !ie . :!ery nation, e!ery )indred, e!ery tongue #ame before my sight from the east and the est, the north and the south. I re#ogni+ed e!ery #ountry and many #ities that I had been in, and I as almost in fear and trembling as I beheld the great sight before me: and at that moment hen the orld #ame into !ie , it began to lightning and thunder. ,s the lightning flashed o!er the fa#e of the earth, my eyes ent do n ard and I as fa#ing the north. 3uddenly I beheld hat loo)ed li)e a great giant, and as I stared and loo)ed at it, I as almost be ildered by the sight. It as so giganti# and so great. .is feet seemed to rea#h to the north pole and his head to the south. Its arms ere stret#hed from sea to sea. I #ould not e!en begin to understand hether this be a mountain or this be a giant, but as I at#hed, I suddenly beheld a great giant. I #ould see his head as struggling for life. .e anted to li!e, but his body as

#o!ered ith debris from head to foot, and at times this great giant ould mo!e his body and a#t as though it ould e!en raise up at times. ,nd hen it did, thousands of little #reatures seemed to run a ay. .ideous #reatures ould run a ay from this giant, and hen he ould be#ome #alm, they ould #ome ba#). ,ll of a sudden this great giant lifted his hand to ard the hea!en, and then it lifted its other hand, and hen it did, these #reatures by the thousands seemed to flee a ay from this giant and go into the dar)ness of the night. 3lo ly this great giant began to rise and as he did, his head and hands ent into the #louds. ,s he rose to his feet he seemed to ha!e #leansed himself from the debris and filth that as upon him, and he began to raise his hands into the hea!ens as though praising the 0ord, and as he raised his hands, they ent e!en unto the #louds. 3uddenly, e!ery #loud be#ame sil!er, the most beautiful sil!er I ha!e e!er )no n. ,s I at#hed this phenomenon it as so great I #ould not e!en begin to understand hat it all meant. I as so stirred as I at#hed it, and I #ried unto the 0ord and I said, 2;h, 0ord, hat is the meaning of this,2 and I felt as if I as a#tually in the 3pirit and I #ould feel the presen#e of the 0ord e!en as I as asleep. ,nd from those #louds suddenly there #ame great

drops of li<uid light raining do n upon this mighty giant, and slo ly, slo ly, this giant began to melt, began to sin) itself in the !ery earth itself, and as he melted, his hole form seemed to ha!e melted upon the fa#e of the earth, and this great rain began to #ome do n. 0i<uid drops of light began to flood the !ery earth itself and as I at#hed this giant that seemed to melt, suddenly it be#ame millions of people o!er the fa#e of the earth. ,s I beheld the sight before me, people stood up all o!er the orld9 $hey ere lifting their hands and they ere praising the 0ord. ,t that !ery moment there #ame a great thunder that seemed to roar from the hea!ens. I turned my eyes to ard the hea!ens and suddenly I sa a figure in hite, in glistening hite = the most glorious thing that I ha!e e!er seen in my entire life. I did not see the fa#e, but someho I )ne it as the 0ord Jesus Christ, and he stret#hed forth his hand, and as he did, he ould stret#h it forth to one, and to another, and to another. ,nd as he stret#hed forth his hand upon the nations and the people of the orld = en and omen = as he pointed to ard them, this li<uid light seemed to flo from his hands into them, and a mighty anointing of "od #ame upon them, and those people began to go forth in the name of the 0ord. I do not )no ho long I at#hed it. It seemed it ent into days and ee)s and months. ,nd I beheld this Christ as he #ontinued to stret#h forth his hand/ but there as a tragedy. $here ere many people as he stret#hed forth his hand that refused the anointing of

"od and the #all of "od. I sa men and omen that I )ne . >eople that I felt ould #ertainly re#ei!e the #all of "od. 4ut as he stret#hed forth his hand to ard this one and to ard that one, they simply bo ed their head and began to ba#) a ay. ,nd ea#h of those that seemed to bo do n and ba#) a ay, seemed to go into dar)ness. 4la#)ness seemed to s allo them e!ery here. . as be ildered as I at#hed it, but these people that he had anointed, hundreds of thousands of people all o!er the orld, in ,fri#a, :ngland, ?ussia, China, ,meri#a, all o!er the orld, the anointing of "od as upon these people as they ent for ard in the name of the 0ord. I sa these men and omen as they ent forth. $hey ere dit#h diggers, they ere asher omen, they ere ri#h men, they ere poor men. I sa people ho ere bound ith paralysis and si#)ness and blindness and deafness. ,s the 0ord stret#hed forth to gi!e them this anointing, they be#ame ell, they be#ame healed, and they ent forth9 ,nd this is the mira#le of it = this is the glorious mira#le of it = those people ould stret#h forth their hands e%a#tly as the 0ord did, and it seemed as if there as this same li<uid fire in their hands. ,s they stret#hed forth their hands they said, 2,##ording to my ord, be thou made hole.2 ,s these people #ontinued in this mighty end*time ministry, I did not fully reali+e hat it as, and I loo)ed to the 0ord and said, 2What is the meaning of

this@2 ,nd he said, 2$his is that hi#h I ill do in the last days. I ill restore all that the #an)er orm, the palmer orm, the #aterpillar = I ill restore all that they ha!e destroyed. $his, my people, in the end times ill go forth. ,s a mighty army shall they s eep o!er the fa#e of the earth.2 ,s I as at this great height, I #ould behold the hole orld. I at#hed these people as they ere going to and fro o!er the fa#e of the earth. 3uddenly there as a man in ,fri#a and in a moment he as transported by the 3pirit of "od, and perhaps he as in ?ussia, or China or ,meri#a or some other pla#e, and !i#e !ersa. ,ll o!er the orld these people ent, and they #ame through fire, and through pestilen#e, and through famine. -either fire nor perse#ution, nothing seemed to stop them. ,ngry mobs #ame to them ith s ords and ith guns. ,nd li)e Jesus, they passed through the multitudes and they #ould not find them, but they ent forth in the name of the 0ord, and e!ery here they stret#hed forth their hands, the si#) ere healed, the blind eyes ere opened. $here as not a long prayer, and after I had re!ie ed the !ision many times in my mind, and I thought about it many times, I reali+ed that I ne!er sa a #hur#h, and I ne!er sa or heard a denomination, but these people ere going in the name of the 0ord of .osts. .allelu6ah9 ,s they mar#hed forth in e!erything they did as the

ministry of Christ in the end times, these people ere ministering to the multitudes o!er the fa#e of the earth. $ens of thousands, e!en millions seemed to #ome to the 0ord Jesus Christ as these people stood forth and ga!e the message of the )ingdom, of the #oming )ingdom, in this last hour. It as so glorious, but it seems as though there ere those that rebelled, and they ould be#ome angry and they tried to atta#) those or)ers that ere gi!ing the message. "od is going to gi!e to the orld a demonstration in this last hour as the orld has ne!er )no n. $hese men and omen are of all al)s of life, degrees ill mean nothing. I sa these or)ers as they ere going o!er the fa#e of the earth. When one ould stumble and fall, another ould #ome and pi#) him up. $here ere no 2big I2 and 2little you,2 but e!ery mountain as brought lo and e!ery !alley as e%alted, and they seemed to ha!e one thing in #ommon = there as a di!ine lo!e, a di!ine lo!e that seemed to flo forth from these people as they or)ed together, and as they li!ed together. It as the most glorious sight that I ha!e e!er )no n. Jesus Christ as the theme of their life. $hey #ontinued and it seemed the days ent by as I stood and beheld this sight. I #ould only #ry, and sometimes I laughed. It as so onderful as these people ent throughout the fa#e of the hole earth, bringing forth in this last end time. ,s I at#hed from the !ery hea!en itself, there ere times hen great deluges of this li<uid light seemed to fall

upon great #ongregations, and that #ongregation ould lift their hands and seemingly praise "od for hours and e!en days as the 3pirit of "od #ame upon them. "od said, 2I ill pour my 3pirit upon all flesh,2 and that is e%a#tly this thing. ,nd to e!ery man and e!ery oman that re#ei!ed this po er, and the anointing of "od, the mira#les of "od, there as no ending to it. We ha!e tal)ed about mira#les. We ha!e tal)ed about signs and onders, but I #ould not help but eep as I read again this morning, at A o1#lo#) this morning the letter from our nati!e or)ers. $his is only the e!iden#e of the beginning for one man, a 2do*nothing, an unheard*of,2 ho ould go and stret#h forth his hand and say, 2In the name of the 0ord Jesus Christ, I #ommand life to fla into your body.2 I dropped to my )nees and began to pray again, and I said, 20ord, I )no that this thing is #oming to pass, and I belie!e it1s #oming soon92 ,nd then again, as these people ere going about the fa#e of the earth, a great perse#ution seemed to #ome from e!ery angle. 3uddenly there as another great #lap of thunder, that seemed to resound around the orld, and I heard again the !oi#e, the !oi#e that seemed to spea), 2-o this is my people. $his is my belo!ed bride,2 and hen the !oi#e spo)e, I loo)ed upon the earth and I #ould see the la)es and the mountains. $he gra!es ere

opened and people from all o!er the orld, the saints of all ages, seemed to be rising. ,nd as they rose from the gra!e, suddenly all these people #ame from e!ery dire#tion. Brom the east and the est, from the north and the south, and they seemed to be forming again this giganti# body. ,s the dead in Christ seemed to be rising first, I #ould hardly #omprehend it. It as so mar!elous. It as so far beyond anything I #ould e!er dream or thin) of. 4ut as this body suddenly began to form, and ta)e shape again, it too) shape again in the form of this mighty giant, but this time it as different. It as arrayed in the most beautiful gorgeous hite. Its garments ere ithout spot or rin)le as its body began to form, and the people of all ages seemed to be gathered into this body, and slo ly, slo ly, as it began to form up into the !ery hea!ens, suddenly from the hea!ens abo!e, the 0ord Jesus #ame, and be#ame the head, and I heard another #lap of thunder that said, 2$his is my belo!ed bride for hom I ha!e aited. 3he ill #ome forth e!en tried by fire. $his is she that I ha!e lo!ed from the beginning of time.2 ,s I at#hed, my eyes suddenly turned to the far north, and I sa seemingly destru#tion: men and omen in anguish and #rying out, and buildings in destru#tion. $hen I heard again, the fourth !oi#e that said, 2-o is My rath being poured out upon the fa#e of the earth.2 Brom the ends of the hole orld, the rath o"

"od seemed to be poured out and it seemed that there ere great !ials of "od1s rath being poured out upon the fa#e of the earth. I #an remember it as though it happened a moment ago. I shoo) and trembled as I beheld the a ful sight of seeing the #ities, and hole nations going do n into destru#tion. I #ould hear the eeping and ailing. I #ould hear people #rying. $hey seemed to #ry as they ent into #a!es, but the #a!es in the mountains opened up. $hey leaped into ater, but the ater ould not dro n them. $here as nothing that #ould destroy them. $hey ere anting to ta)e their li!es, but they #ould not. $hen again I turned my eyes to this glorious sight, this body arrayed in beautiful hite, shining garments. 3lo ly, slo ly, it began to lift from the earth, and as it did, I a o)e. What a sight I had beheld9 I had seen the end*time ministries = the last hour. ,gain on July 2C, at 2:30 in the morning, the same re!elation, the same !ision #ame again e%a#tly as it did before. My life has been #hanged as I reali+ed that e are li!ing in that end time, for all o!er the orld "od is anointing men and omen ith this ministry. It ill not be do#trine. It ill not be a #hur#hianity. It is going to be Jesus Christ. $hey ill gi!e forth the ord of the 0ord, and are going to say, 2I heard it so many times in the !ision and a##ording to my ord it shall be done.2

;h, my people, listen to me. ,##ording to my ord, it shall be done. We are going to be #lothed ith po er and anointing from "od.
