Not just while preaching the seals, but many other times William Branham stated that the revelation and understanding relating to the seals on the book of redemption could only be opened and understood at the end of time, and not within any denominational system: | |||
:''He spoke to me, and said, “The Seven Seals will be opened. The seven mysteries, sevenfold mystery of the Bible, '''that’s been closed up since the foundation of the world, will be revealed.'''” And we, yet a humble little group, compared with all the world, we’ve enjoyed these blessings, a hearing those mysteries.<ref>William Branham, 65-0418M - It Is The Rising Of The Sun, para. 12</ref> | |||
Followers of William Branham believe the revelation of the seals was never made known in any other age, and that William Branham’s ability to convey the true understanding of the seals are a key part of his role as an end time prophet and Laodicean Church Age messenger. | |||
