Pope Resignation on 28th February and the lightning that struck St. Peters Basilica few hours after announcing his intent to resign on Monday 11 February: A Coincidence?

Pope Benedict XVI announced on Monday 11 February 2013 that he was going to resign on 28th February 2013 and few hours after he announced, the lightning struck the famous St. Peters Basilica (see pictures and videos). 

Was this lightning a sign from above?

Why 28th February and not any other date? 

Did you know that On February 28, 1963, over in Arizona, U.S.A., a constellation of seven angels appeared to William Marrion Branham in the form of a ring shaped-Cloud? These seven angels came from the presence of God revealing to him the hidden mysteries that were sealed in the Book of Daniel and the Book of Revelation.

 Is it a coincidence of dates? Why 28th February? 
 Did you know that February 28th 2013, the day when the pope officially resigned, marks 50 years since the seven angles appeared to William Branham?  Did you know that 28th Feb 1963 was Thursday just like it was Thursday on 28th Feb 2013.

And what do we know about number 50? (Jubilee, Freedom, Pentecost). Let's remind ourselves what Bro. Branham told us about the 50th year jubilee. 

 "Now, in the Old Testament the Bible said that there was to be a fifty year jubilee. That was seven times seven years. And in the forty-ninth year that it was to be made ready, and the fiftieth year was the jubilee year. "Fifty" means "jubilee." It was... "Fifty" is God's jubilee number. The word "Pentecost" means "fifty." It was the outpouring of the Holy Spirit at the end of the fifty days. It was also the end of the fiftieth year.Jesus come to foreshadow, or forewarn, rather, the people of the coming year of jubilee. He went into the synagogue at Capernaum and sat down, and taken the Scripture and turn it over to Isaiah 61:1 and read this Scripture. The Spirit of the Lord is upon me; for He has anointed me to preach the acceptable year of the Lord, to set the captives at liberty, and to give sight to the blind. And when He got through reading, He set down and hand the Scripture back to the priest; and He said, "This day this Scripture is fulfilled in your ears and eyes." You see it? For He was giving forth the warning of the coming forth of the great gusher of Pentecost, to set at liberty every one that was slaves to sin and bound.

Now, at the going forth of this jubilee year, it was to be sounded throughout all the land. A trumpet was to sound. And this trumpet would make the distinction... For the trumpet was the fiftieth year sound that led every slave that had been bought, or become poor--poor and could not care for his own...He had fell beneath the load. And his master for his debt had bought him and had placed him into the field as a slave. And he had to serve him, for he was too poor to redeem himself. But God said, "Remember, you were one time slaves yourself and down in Egypt. And I have freed you. Therefore, at the sounding of the trumpet, every slave, no matter how long he's been in or how short a time, he's at liberty to return to his family, to return to his people and be free of every debt, for it is a time of jubilee". Mark of the beast [56-0715].

And what about the lightning that struck the dome of St. Peters Basilica? Was it a sign from above? Nobody  knows but Bro. Branham once said; 
"And when God gets ready to do things great, the first thing God usually does is make it known in the heavens above first. He always declares His works in the heaven before He does on the earth.

Like at the birth of the Lord Jesus, who was the first ones come, what declared it first: A star begin to sweep across the skies. The magis come all the way from the East to--to Jerusalem from over in India, the three magis" Hear ye Him [60-0712]

 "The people today, the Laodicea church age, the last countdown, did you see the other night, just before the pope of Rome made his first visit in all history to Jerusalem? There never has been a pope in Jerusalem, sent before. See? He went from Rome to Jerusalem. The church, the moon represents the church, reflecting the light of the sun in its absence. God does the signs in the heavens before He declares it on earth. Did you notice, the moon went to a complete blackout? Jerusalem is the oldest church in the world. See? And when this ecumenical council and these things that..." Countdown [64-0209]

 "And you know God always declares His doings in the heavens before He does on earth anyhow? Ministers know that.There they was watching the stars, because they know that any shift, immediately they search right back through the Scriptures to find out what it was"  We have seen His star [63-1216]

 "Always, God shows it by heavenly signs first. Since when did He ever do anything that He didn't show a heavenly sign first? Think of it in every age that you wish to, and God always does show signs in the heaven first, before He does anything on earth. It comes from the supernatural, drops into the natural and is made manifest: every age, every time." Where is He King of Jews [58-1221M]

What did Jesus mean in LUKE 10: 18 when he said ''I beheld Satan falling from heaven like lightning''? 

All right, while he is getting that one, maybe I can answer another one. All right, sir. [Brother Jimmy reads the next question: "Explain I beheld and Satan as lighting falling from heaven."--Ed.]"And I beheld Satan falling from heaven like lightning." Over in Luke [10:18] is where... Does it give a Scripture there? Just... Well, I suppose that's what it is.
"I beheld Satan falling from heaven like lightning." Now, that would... Now, I'll just kindy outline this, and if it doesn't do it, then you--you just let me know, and I'll go into detail. Do you remember, we'll--we'll get that when we come into--farther on into the Scriptures on our study over there in that... You know, Jesus...

69 That was immediately after that Jesus give His disciples power against unclean spirits. And they went out casting out devils. Sent them two by two, and He said, "Don't go to the Gentiles, but go, rather, to the lost sheep of Israel. And as you go, preach then the Kingdom of heaven, and heal the sick, and cast out devils," and so forth. Well, then... And then, they come back rejoicing, happily (Now, you that asked the question knows that's where it is at. See?)--come back happily rejoicing. And He said--and He said, "Rejoice not that your names... Rejoice not because devils is subject unto you, but rejoice because your names are written in heaven." He said, "I beheld Satan falling from heaven like lightning."See, the power of that Church moving forward had just upset the whole kingdom of Satan. You see? And He saw him as he dropped from his places. Because God had again give power to His Church to go to... He beheld him falling like lightning from heaven. He was cast plumb out of the holy places and everything (You see?), by the power of those--that power of that Church, of them having power. Jesus said, "I give you power over unclean spirits." See? And they really upset the kingdom of Satan. What could we do with it today? Oh, praise the Lord. [Thy house 61-080]

Are You A Fool To The Extent Of Ignoring Even Events That Have Been Clearly Seen And Recorded? Are You Searching For Scriptures When You See Such Events (Just Like The Magi)?

There can be someone so foolish as to say, "I refuse to believe the sun's a shining." Hide his face, go into his basement, close the doors, and say, "The sun's not shining. I don't believe it, you bunch of fanatics, just go on out there." Well, we can't help that fellow; he's mentally wrong. Now, if he wants to stay there and wait till night time comes, and gets his little lantern, and starts out, looking along, thinking he's got some light, well, he can go ahead like that. But you can't tell him.Neither will he be able to enjoy the blessing of the sun. He will never enjoy its great rays that shines down, health-giving rays. He will never be able to see the beauty of creation until he comes out, really, with that and walks in the light. And Jesus is that Light.
