Brother Branham, if a man has been married and divorced (Isn’t that awful (see?), so many? Now, I’mnot saying nothing against the people; just that’s on the people’s mind. Sure, they’re troubled. The rapture, people used not to think so much about that; it wasn’t so much of it. But now, it’s just plastered the world. And the people read these things in the Scripture. And people, elected, out there is coming in to look at it. And they see it, and they’re sincere. They want to know. That’s the reason I want to answer it just as with much sense to it as I can give it you.)–has been married and divorced and then remarried of a woman who has also been married and divorced and then married to him, and these two can–can–married in God’s sight–are they married in God’s sight? How can both or one of them be in the rapture?
207 How? I don’t know. I couldn’t tell you. The question is, “Can they be in the rapture?” Divorced, each one of them divorced, each one of them has a living companion, then they married again, both of them married again. And now, one that...This woman has a living husband; this man has a living wife. And now, they’ve got children and so forth and want to come to God. Can they go in the rapture? That’ll be up to the Heavenly Father. I couldn’t answer that. See?
208 I–I saw one thing. The Bible said that they shall be called an adulterer. And the Bible said also, “An adulterer will not enter the Kingdom of Heaven.” That’s all I can say. I–I know, that just kills me to say that, but I can’t say but what the Word says. I must stay with that. I hope that that’s all wrong. There is places in the Bible...
209 I’m not advising you. Please, let me just give you a little Scripture. Please, please don’t–don’t–don’t...If you’re living happy with your husband, living happy with your wife, please remain that way. Will you? Just–just for, because I told you that, don’t–don’t leave them little children without a home and things like that. God has made restitutions in places for people that–that–that did things wrong. You remember, Jesus said of David when he was hungry, he entered into the temple of God and eat the shewbread, which is only lawful for the priest, and is found blameless. The priest also blaspheme the Sabbath upon the Sabbath day and are found blameless, and a greater than the Sabbath was here. See? There...I...Let’s–let’s just leave it up to God, and go ahead, and just live the way you...Just–just live for Christ now.
210 Let’s see, there might be a chance of you getting in. Don’t make...Two wrongs will never righten one. Just go on and live the way you are if you’re–if you’re happy together. You might have the wrong companion. I’ll say this one thing: if you’ve got the wrong companion in this wife–in this life, you’ll never have it in the other one. All wrongs will be made right.
