After coming back from Zambia, we had convention meetings here at Dawsonville on the weekend of September 2, 2002. That following Monday on the 5th, everybody had gone home except for Brother Dean Atha and his wife Jo, who live in West Virginia. Brother Dean had given my wife a sheet of paper that he had drawn a map with directions on how to get to Cherokee, North Carolina. My wife had it in her hand when we went to eat lunch with them and some relatives of mine. She was sitting listening to us talk and she turned the sheet of paper over that had the map on it and began to write on it without thinking about what she was writing. When she read what she had written it said, "Door was opened. Come up hither. Go through the gate Into the Holy of Holies; that's where I'll meet you." She had no idea what it meant. She brought it to me and asked me about it. I had no idea at all what it could possibly mean, neither did Brother or Sister Atha. So she put it away so that she wouldn't lose the map Brother Atha had drawn for us in case we ever decided to go up to Cherokee, North Carolina. And no more was said or thought about what was written on the other side of the map.
It was on November 24, 2002 that I started preaching a series of messages called, "The New Testament Feast of Tabernacles." It was at the end of December when I mentioned to Barbara about the Ark of the Covenant and the Holy of Holies. She told me that she had not studied much on this and asked me where it was in the Old Testament. I told her to start reading in Exodus, Chapter 25. So she went into the bedroom and began reading there. Then I heard her running through the house into the office. She was in the office for a little while and came into where I was with a Bible in one hand and a sheet of paper in the other. It was the sheet of paper that Brother Atha had drawn the map on and the writing on the back that she had written that day in September. She was so excited that she could barely get the words out. She said that she had been reading in Exodus, Chapter 25, and when she got down to Verse 22, it said, "And there I will meet with thee, and I will commune with thee from above the mercy seat, from between the two cherubims, which are upon the ark of the testimony, of all the things which I will give thee in commandment unto the children of Israel." She said after she read Verse 22, what she had written on the back of that sheet of paper flashed before her eyes and she went and found where she had put it. What she had written down fit perfectly with Exodus 25:22.
On January 05, 2003, I preached a message of this "New Testament Feast of Tabernacles" at Brother Samuel Francis' church in Glen Fork, West Virginia, in Exodus, Chapter 25, the Holy of Holies. During the meeting, as I was behind the pulpit preaching, Brother Francis' daughter Vanassa, had a vision. She said and I quote, "I don't t know if anybody else noticed it, but I was sitting there while Brother Ben was walking and there was a light that was at the top of his head. The whole top of his head was glistening and his skin had like a glowing light coming from it. Then from one side to the other side there was a hovering mist, and behind him was a curtain or veil. In this mist there were gleams of light coming through it, all through the midst. It was so bright that it hurt my eyes to look at it, and I started rubbing my eyes...." The Lord does vindicate His Word and His ministry with signs and wonders! Please listen to the audio messages below of "The New Testament Feast Of Tabernacles."
