BROTHER ROBERT LAMBERT

TRINIDAD    WEST INDES

This message was preached by Brother Robert Lee Lambert, on December 22nd , 1972, in Trinidad, West Indies.

The efforts to transcribe & saving the audio messages of Bro Lambert had been made by the saints & daughter of Bro Lambert, Connecticut U.S.A.

Luke 21:25   And there shall be signs in the sun, and in the moon, and in the stars; and upon the earth distress of nations, with perplexity; the sea and the waves roaring;

Luke 21:26   Men's hearts failing them for fear, and for looking after those things which are coming on the earth: for the powers of heaven shall be shaken.

Luke 21:27   And then shall they see the Son of man coming in a cloud with power and great glory.

Luke 21:28   And when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads; for your redemption draweth nigh.

I want to put emphasis on that last part; "Your redemption draweth nigh.

 

And then, over in Matt. 19:27-30:

Matt. 19:27   Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?

Matt. 19:28   And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Matt. 19:29   And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.

Matt. 19:30   But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.

May God add a blessing to His Word. I'd also like to read Titus 3:4 and 5:

 

Titus 3:4   But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,

Titus 3:5   Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

 

(Bro. Bob prays, and makes some comments about the poor disunified condition of the people, claiming to be the Bride.)

 

I believe the Lord Jesus has tarried His coming so that the honest hearted people, (that's the kind of people that always finds Christ) is honest-hearted people. God has let this space of time go on, so we could find out that there was something wrong. The people and the church have had plenty of time to produce Christ, and they have not been able to do it. And now we have rolled right up to 1973, and every preacher has had his way and his say, and still has not been able to produce Christ among the people. The congregations are still powerless. They still do not have the supernatural apostolic power of the Holy Ghost working among the people.

 

Now, all we have is a few little brothers, like your pastor, trying to preach the revelation, and the rest of you people sit there and try to absorb it. That's not the plan of God at all. The only reason God has a ministry is so that, at the end, He might tabernacle Himself in His Body.

 

Now, we have had plenty of time to produce Christ. Years and years since 1906 Azusa Street, they claimed to receive the Holy Ghost. We have had all that time to produce an Apostolic Church. And we did not do it!

Then God begin to show us what was wrong. Why we do not have the power of God. Why we can not produce Christ in our lives. Every individual that goes in the Rapture has got to produce Christ. It is an individual thing!  Every boy and every girl man, and woman, every person that goes in the Rapture has got to produce Christ tabernacled in their human body.

 

We have had plenty of time to produce an Apostolic Church. But, still, the world is void of an APOSTOLIC Church. Now I believe with all my heart that Church is on its road. I believe that there has got to be Something here today to bring those people together, to make an Apolostic Church out of.

Now remember, "Questions and Answers, 1964", Bro. Branham dropped that off. That really blessed my soul. That really caused me to run around my room and leap for joy. He made a statement, talking about the gifts of the Holy Spirit that was operating in the tabernacle, which wasn't really, but was supposed to be operating. They had plenty of prophesying and tongues in the tabernacle.

 

16 CHURCH.ORDER -- JEFF.IN -- COD 871-917 -- 63-1226

221. Is it sufficient to say openly from the pulpit that tongues and interpretations should be done in a meeting before the service? That's the second question on this slip of paper that I have here, which is a little card.

17 CHURCH.ORDER -- JEFF.IN -- COD 871-917 -- 63-1226

Now, there... sometime ago when the order was set in the church. I do believe in speaking in tongues, and interpretation, and all the fine spiritual gifts that's ordained of God to be in the church. But we are living in a day just like it was in the Bible time, where the churches...

21 CHURCH.ORDER -- JEFF.IN -- COD 871-917 -- 63-1226

Now, I've watched the church here, and I've seen you grow up, and I've seen many spiritual gifts operating among you. Frankly, one I had to come to Brother Neville about with a word from the Lord, to correct him on something that he was doing.

And if I... if the Lord has... The Holy Ghost has made me an overseer of the Flock, then it's my duty to tell you the Truth. And I'm very grateful to Brother Neville, he heeded to the Truth. I can only say It as He tells me.

35 CHURCH.ORDER -- JEFF.IN -- COD 871-917 -- 63-1226

Page 4: €¦  · Web viewMatt. 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of

The Branham Tabernacle shall be like this. Let those who speak with tongues, and those who interpret tongues, and those have prophecy that's to be given to the church, let them come among themselves early in the... before the meeting starts, let them gather in an appointed room, and wait on the ministry of the Lord.

37 CHURCH.ORDER -- JEFF.IN -- COD 871-917 -- 63-1226

Let those who have ministries that has to be part of someone else, like one to speak with tongues and another to interpret, they wait together on their ministry. They cannot stay in a private study and speak in tongues and then come tell the other one what he said, because he'd have both tongues and interpretation. See? Now, if he has that, very well, we want to receive it like that. And we want the church to benefit by these gifts that's in our church. God sent them to us, and it's... we want our church to benefit by these spiritual gifts. So let the man who speaks with tongues, and the one who interprets, and the one who prophesies, let them come together before the--the church ever meets. Let them meet in a room to themselves, waiting on the ministry of the Lord to the church. Is it understood?

50 CHURCH.ORDER -- JEFF.IN -- COD 871-917 -- 63-1226

Then, you see, you're old enough now to act like man, not children ("goo, goo, goo"), you got to have some meaning to something.

 

I told a minister friend of mine, I said, "You know, that's not really gifts at all." I said, "one of these days God's prophet will judge that thing."

 

And sure enough, he let it go on a while and then he come to the platform, and said, "Bring all these gifts and put them in the back room and let two ministers judge that thing." And write them on the pulpit, and don't just quote Scripture."

 

And, sure enough, they all left the Tabernacle and went over to another church where on one would judge them. That is not a real gift of the Holy Ghost! A real gift of the Holy Ghost wouldn't mind being judged. What was supposedly the gifts of the Holy Ghost could not stand chastisement. Then Brother Branham came up to the pulpit and said they was all bastard born. They went right on prophesying! They did not believe they were bastard born! They went right over to another man's church and went right on prophesying. Just having a great revival. But it is not a revival! Thinking they got a great Apostolic ministry. But it is not an Apostolic ministry! It ain't Apostolic, no sir! TO HAVE AN APOSTOLIC MINISTRY, YOU GOT TO HAVE AN APOLOSTIC DOCTRINE!

QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS -- JEFF.IN -- COD 993-1060 - 64-0823.2E

292. Brother Branham, can Satan use a gift of tongues or prophecy  in a person who has the Holy Ghost?

That's a good one isn't it? Yes, sir! If... It must be watched very, very close. If you'll notice in I Corinthians 14:29,

1Cor. 14:29 Let the prophets speak two or three, and let the other judge.

In I Corinthians 14:29 we find out that any gift in the church has got to be judged first. See? You have to watch, 'cause evil spirits slip in. Because remember, the rain falls on the just and the unjust. The same rain that was sent to ripen the wheat also ripens the weed, the same water. How many knows that?

124 QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS - JEFF.IN -- COD 993-1060 - 64-0823.2E

Now, also here I might bring this out. I see my... I don't think my Brother's here tonight, but somebody made fun of somebody leaving the tabernacle and went down to Brother Junior Jackson's for a church. Said, "They went down amongst the "dead birds." Aren't you ashamed to make a remark like that? Ever who you are, if you're my kid here in Christ, I'm ashamed of you. Don't do a thing like that. Junior Jackson is my brother. Don Ruddell is my brother.

Well, the reason of it, because when I set the church here in a certain order, when I come back, to see if I could get the manifestation of the gifts, half of them pulled away from it. Because when you would start to speak, or preach, or something, it got... It was getting in such a place that you could hardly preach 'less there was somebody spoke in tongues, somebody interpreting, somebody give the interpretation; and half of it never even come to pass.

127 QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS - JEFF.IN -- COD 993-1060 - 64-0823.2E

It must be something. "Go tell Brother So-and-so a certain thing he done and--and to get..." "Why, go tell Brother, Sister So-and-so, when she did a certain thing down there the other day, she transgressed the laws of her husband's--the vow to her husband. Unless she makes this right--right, the Holy Spirit will cut her off." There you've got THUS SAITH THE LORD!

128 QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS - JEFF.IN -- COD 993-1060 - 64-0823.2E

Then bring that sin in. That's when we got a church like it was when Ananias and Sapphira come in. Then we got a church that stands solid.

"Oh," you say, "Brother Branham..." One guy, I told him that; he said, "Well, you put us too much on the spot."

5

Page 6: €¦  · Web viewMatt. 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of

I said, "Ain't I on the spot up there to strangers I never seen in my life? But I got faith and confidence in my God who sent me to do this, and never one time has it been wrong or never will be as long as it's God." That's right.

132 QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS - JEFF.IN -- COD 993-1060 - 64-0823.2E

Now, I told the brethren (there's witnesses here know this), I said, "Let it alone. After while I will--we will find out whether it's of God or not. If it cannot stand chastisement, then it's a bastard child. " Exactly what the Bible said. And when the chastisement come, what happened? Did I tell you that long ago? See? Ask the pastor here.

He said, "What about this and that?"

I said, "Just let it alone! They're babies. We can't judge it, but watch when it really comes to pin down to the Word."

Now, Brother Junior Jackson had a right to disagree with that. He wants his church... The people all want to speak with tongues and things in the audience. That's Brother Junior's troubles; that's--that's up to him. But Junior Jackson believes this Message the same as the--any of the rest of us does. He's one of us. And it's not a "dead bird" to go there. Junior Jackson is a man of God that I love with all my heart. And is not here tonight, so I can really pour it on the way I want to.

 

And I think it's time someone rose on the scene and told the truth the way it is.

 

You don't know how hard it is to come and say the things we are saying. You know, it is death. I've run from these things for years. But, loving the people, and having that thing burning down inside of me; I have tried to run from the Lord, and hide from these things for years. But I have known these things for years.

 

And, right among the ministers, I've never opened my mouth. And Bro. Ruddell knew that. The other ministers noticed me, that I was a strange fellow. I would travel across the country with them, but, I'd never tell the secrets of the Lord. Never let out any of these revelations!

 

But, I knew all the time how Brother Branham would be leaving. the scene I've seen it in a vision and had the word of the Lord on it. And close friends of mine know I've prophesied to them and never one thing ever failed. And I've tried to keep quiet about it. But, I just can't sit by and see the devil take over everything.

No man wants to start a war, that's beginning to break out in the United States and here in Trinidad, and will also be in the whole world. No man wants to do that! How much easier it would be to go down to Jeffersonville and say, "Yes we already got it and are all ready to go in the Rapture." But I'd be a traitor to God.

 

And I fear and tremble to come to the pulpit and say these things, realizing the place that I'm standing. But, if I wasn't positively sure of what I'm talking about,—like some man asked, "Is what you're preaching 'thus saith the Lord'?" Well, if it wasn't "thus saith the Lord", I wouldn't be preaching it. Because I love people too much.

 

I've waited for years before I ever preached the new birth. I laid on the floor and cried till my eyes were swollen together, I said, "God, I've never heard one minister ever preach the new birth."

 I said, "The prophet of God is laying brick right along with the Pentecostals, and I cannot make that fit the Bible." I said, "Lord, you said I was your minister, and if someone came to me and asked me how to be born again, I do not know how to tell them!"

 

I kept praying and weeping and crying before the Lord, and then in 1966, a supernatural Being came in to where I was at, and revealed to me the plan to redemption the new birth. And that's the truth, with my Bible before me - it wasn't any natural thing _ some supernatural Being came to me and revealed these things to me!

 And then, I went on for years and hid it, and wouldn't let one tape out. And I hid these things in my church.

 

And, the first place it kind of leaked out was a little brother had one of my tapes in his car (which he wasn't supposed to have it) and he took it, - there's two churches following this message in Lebanon, Pennsylvania - and that brother went down there to a bunch of followers of Brother. Branham's message.

 

And he just dropped off a few things on the new birth and it just tore the people to pieces, and they didn't know if they were coming or going. And they began to question him about this man.

Page 8: €¦  · Web viewMatt. 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of

And he just said, "Here listen to this." ,And he gave them one of my tapes on ''Abraham and Lot."

 

The next thing I knew there was about thirty—five to forty people came up to my church the next Sunday. Brother. Graybill and his family, and quite a few of the folks from Pennsylvania.

 

It leaked out there, and I got all nervous and said, "Lord, the message is all leaking out and It will cause a war! And I said, Boy I ought to skin that guys head for giving that tape out."

 

My, it started splitting up churches, splitting up homes, husbands and wives started getting upset with each other.

 

Telephone began to ring all over the country, "Bro. Lambert's said there is going to be an outpouring of the Holy Ghost!" Said, "They got an upper room with only 120 seats in it and he's telling the wives to leave their husbands, and everything. Said, "His church is filled with wives who left their husbands. Why, there's just one girl in there that had to leave her husband because of certain difficulties.

 

I got so nervous, and I cried to the Lord and I said, "look what this has caused what am I going to do?"

 

(Bro. Bob tells about how he began dropping off the revelation to Bro. Ruddell and how he and Bro. Ruddell became such good friends.)

 

And I really believe he is a servant of God. I just dropped off a little here and there, and I said, "Bro. Ruddell, if you ever had the devil come on you, he will now. People will say you've turned against Bro. Branham's Message.

 

Brother. Ruddell went home and laid his bible and books out, and said, "I can't turn against that brother. As much as I love Bro. Branham I can't turn against a brother like that unless I can tear it

up with Brother. Branham's Message." Bro. Ruddell stayed in the room there and the same God revealed the same thing to him, as He did to me. He came back up to my church and preached the same thing.

 

Then it went to Brother Canada and come down here to these brothers. And I have not heard these Brothers preach. I heard Brother Ken on a tape a little bit the other day. But, I heard the same revelation.

 

( Bro. Bob explains how god moves in simplicity in humble places and with humble people. How people have lied about him and his ministry.)

 

I believe this is the Message hidden underneath the Seventh Seal. This is the only Message in the world that brings the Bible together. It makes the prophet of God's Message easy to be understood. Besides that there is a Supernatural Being that comes to this revelation, and I believe that to be Christ! I believe it to be the Angel of God.

 

Many times He has come. If your spiritual you should know that no man can produce such a stimulation in people as you saw here last night. That has got to be the Bridegroom himself!

 

Because, the Seventh Seal Message was to awake the Bride and stir her soul for revival. Now revival is not great signs wonders and miracles. But revival starts in your heart. In other words, if there is a Message to stimulate you and wake you up, to what you had been blind to, then that is the Bridegroom speaking personally to you—personally to you! That means that, if your soul is coming awake by this Trumpet that's causing a religious disturbance - that means that you are an elected predestinated Seed. But if it does not wake you and it does not move you, then you better wait for another message. Wait for something to move you!

 

Now notice, in our Scripture, Luke 21:28, "Your redemption draweth nigh." I remember Brother. Branham saying he didn't know what that "drawing nigh" meant. Now, I believe Christ has revealed that to me. "Your redemption draweth nigh." I'd like to call my message, "Following the Son of Man unto Regeneration in this Evening time."

17 ANOINTED.ONES.AT.END.TIME -- JEFF.IN - V-5 N-3 - 65-0725.1M

I believe that we are living in the end time. I think most anyone that... The Scripture reader or even a--a believer knows that we are now at the end of the history of the world. There will be no use of writing it, because there won't be anybody to read it. It's at the end of the time. Just when, I do not know. Just how long it will be, not even the Angels of Heaven knows that minute or hour. But we been told by the Lord Jesus that when these things that we see now begin to come to pass, then to lift up our heads for our redemption is drawing nigh.

Now, what drawing nigh means, I do not know. May mean, as the scientist said the other day on the television, speaking of the great thousands-of-miles break in the earth that's going to sink... He was asked the question, "It could sink there--(that's Los Angeles, the West Coast)?"

21 ANOINTED.ONES.AT.END.TIME -- JEFF.IN - V-5 N-3 - 65-0725.1M

You build homes; you can make scientific things; and God is a Creator of science. How are you going to stop Him? He can destroy the earth this morning by fleas if He wants to. Do you realize He could speak fleas into existence, and they'd be forty miles deep in a half hour's time. See? Eat people right off the ground. He's God! He just does as He will. He's sovereign in Himself.

Now, seeing all this accumulation of evidence that the hour that we now live in, I think it's a good thing to rehearse these things and to draw them out, since the Seals has been opened, and find out the truth of these things, as God has been so loyal to us with His grace to show us these things.

27 ANOINTED.ONES.AT.END.TIME -- JEFF.IN - V-5 N-3 - 65-0725.1M

You may say, "How can this be? Would the anointed ones... What were they?" Christs--c-h-r-i-s-t-s, anointed christs and false prophets. Anointed ones, but false prophets.

Jesus said that the rain falls on the just and the unjust. Now, someone might say to me, "Do you believe that that anointing on those people means that it's anointing of the Holy Spirit?" Yes, sir, the genuine Holy Spirit of God upon a person, and yet they are false! Now, listen close and see what He said: "And they shall show signs and wonders, insomuch that it would deceive the very elected if it were possible." And they are anointed with the genuine Holy Spirit! I know this sounds very foolish, but we're going to take time and explain it by the Word that that's absolutely THUS SAITH THE LORD, the Truth.

 

Now, notice here, He said, "When these things begin to come to pass, then look up, and lift up your heads." Now, He said that for a reason. He could have said, "Look down." But He said, "Look up." In other words, there would have to be something up there, having to do with your redemption drawing nigh.

Now, notice here, there had been Seven Ages, beginning with Abraham. And these Seven Ages continued down through the Jewish Church, to Christ - the Jewish Church, under a substitute blood. Now, hang on to all these words I am saying - they all mean a great thing.

 

The Jewish Church had been living under a substitute blood plan through seven ages. They had seven church ages that they moved through there. And when the Son of Man came, the Lord Jesus Christ, the Jewish Church was in their last church age, Laodicea. They were in their last church age, luke warm! See?? They made God's House a house of merchandise, like the evangelists today. Begging for money. See??

 

So, Christ appeared on the scene in His first coming. The Lord Jesus Christ in His first coming, came at the end of the Seventh Church Age. Now, we see that John the Baptist had come on the scene first, a prophet. He was the last major prophet, prophesied for the last Jewish Church Age. And he was to forerun the first coming of the Messiah, and the Messiah was coming to the Jews. Because it was a Jewish Church.

 

Now notice, John the Baptist was fore running the face of the Lord preparing the way for the Lord. John the Baptist's message said, "Repent! The Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!"

 

Scholars have battled for years and years over what is the Kingdom of Heaven. Trying to figure out what is the Kingdom of God and the Kingdom of Heaven.

 

The Kingdom of Heaven and the Kingdom of God is the baptism of the Holy Ghost The Kingdom of Heaven is the true Bride of Christ, with the power of the Holy Ghost in her.

 

Notice, Jesus said, "If I cast out devils by the finger of God, then how do your children cast them out? But if I cast out devils by the finger of God," (God's finger. Then He was God's finger, wasn't He?) "then the Kingdom of Heaven is come nigh you." So what is the Kingdom of Heaven? It is within the heart of man! It is the in dwelling Christ and His power in you!

 

Notice, John the Baptist came in the last Church Age. He came to forerun the face of the Lord the coming Lord, the Christ, right? What was his message? "Repent, be baptized in water, the

11

Page 12: €¦  · Web viewMatt. 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of

Kingdom of Heaven is at hand!" In other words, the Kingdom of Heaven was right at hand when he began to sound his message. He was a voice, crying in the wilderness; not in an oasis, but a wilderness. "Make a highway in the desert, a way for the Lord!" Repent, the Kingdom of Heaven is at hand! And he got the people baptized in water.

 

Matt. 3:2   And saying, Repent ye: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

 

Matt. 4:17   From that time Jesus began to preach, and to say, Repent: for the kingdom of heaven is at hand.

 

Mark 1:15   And saying, The time is fulfilled, and the kingdom of God is at hand: repent ye, and believe the gospel.

 

Then Christ came on the scene, not as Son of God, but He came on the scene at that last Church Age, as The Son of Man, after they had turned down the baptism of John. Jesus said they had rejected the counsel of God by rejecting John's baptism. And they had rejected John, and put the Lord on the outside, by rejecting the prophet.

 

Luke 7:27   This is he, of whom it is written, Behold, I send my messenger before thy face, which shall prepare thy way before thee.

Luke 7:28   For I say unto you, Among those that are born of women there is not a greater prophet than John the Baptist: but he that is least in the kingdom of God is greater than he.

Luke 7:29   And all the people that heard him, and the publicans, justified God, being baptized with the baptism of John.

Luke 7:30   But the Pharisees and lawyers rejected the counsel of God against themselves, being not baptized of him.

 

Now, the Christ comes. Now, notice here! He's in His Ministry here, as we read in these Scriptures, in His ministry as The Son of Man. And His disciples came up to Him and said, "What are you going to give us? We have forsaken all and followed after you."

And He said, "You who have followed me, The Son of Man in regeneration, shall sit upon the throne and judge the twelve tribes of Israel." And He said, "Every one of you who has left houses lands, lots, and family, for my namesake, shall receive Eternal Life and a hundredfold in this life and in the world to come."

 

Matt. 19:27   Then answered Peter and said unto him, Behold, we have forsaken all, and followed thee; what shall we have therefore?

Matt. 19:28   And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of his glory, ye also shall sit upon twelve thrones, judging the twelve tribes of Israel.

Matt. 19:29   And every one that hath forsaken houses, or brethren, or sisters, or father, or mother, or wife, or children, or lands, for my name's sake, shall receive an hundredfold, and shall inherit everlasting life.

Matt. 19:30   But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.

 

Notice here, He said, "All of you that are following the Son of Man's Ministry in regeneration." Notice here, the word "regeneration" in the Greek, means Messianic Restoration. It means Messianic Restoration. So, in other words, regeneration means restoration, and restoration means regeneration. Now, notice here, regeneration means restoration, and it also means redemption.

"Regeneration"

New Birth, reproduction, renewal, recreation, regeneration; hence renovation, regeneration, the production of a new life consecrated to God, a radical change of mind for the better.

 

The word often used to denote the restoration of a thing to its pristine state, its renovation, as a renewal or restoration of life after death; the renovation of the earth after the deluge; the renewal of the world to take place after its destruction by fire, as the Stoics taught; the signal and glorious change of all things (in heaven and earth) for the better, that restoration of the primal and perfect condition of things which existed before the fall of our first parents, which the Jews looked for in connection with the advent of the Messiah, and which the primitive Christians expected in connection with the visible return of Jesus from heaven.

 

Now, notice here, our Scripture, Luke 21, He said there would be earthquakes in divers places, men's hearts failing for fear, (Is that right?) for looking for those things that are coming upon the earth. But, He said when these things begin to come to pass - earthquakes and all these turmoil of times, and perplexity of nations. He said, to the elected Seed that would be living on earth at the time of the end, then when these things begin to come to pass, then look up, lift up your heads, for your redemption, regeneration and restoration is at hand! By the coming of the Son of Man in a cloud of glory! And I don't believe that is a thunderhead rain cloud. But I believe that is a cloud of the latter rain of the glory of God. Notice, He said, "Your redemption draweth nigh. In other words, if it is drawing nigh, that means it is getting close to where you can get redeemed!

 

Now, notice here brothers, I got to nail things down tonight with a sledgehammer, Not to make myself different, but for the sake of Truth.

 

How many want the power of God?? How many want an Apostolic Church? How many want to produce Christ? Then God has one provided way. God has one plan to bring you redemption. God has one plan for your regeneration and restoration. Now listen! And, if any man in this hour we are living in now, will contradict any word or say anything to contradict the plan that God has for His Bride to be redeemed he is an antichrist and a false prophet! And if an angel would come from Heaven and preach any other thing than that, let him be accursed.

Now, that is the way the Bride of Christ has got to stand in this hour. Did you know, the Bible says, if any man didn't bring the doctrine of the Son of Man in your house, do not let him eat at your table, that you won't be partaker of his evil way?

 

2John 9   Whosoever transgresseth, and abideth not in the doctrine of Christ, hath not God. He that abideth in the doctrine of Christ, he hath both the Father and the Son.

2John 10   If there come any unto you, and bring not this doctrine, receive him not into your house, neither bid him God speed:

2John 11   For he that biddeth him God speed is partaker of his evil deeds.

 

Let me tell you something. The devil has got ministers today, and the devil has got a church. And, if we're ,going to have an Apostolic Church and an apostolic Bride, then we're going to have to start acting like we are. You got to have an apostolic doctrine, and believe that everything that don't believe that, they are yet dead in their sins and are going, through the tribulation. I don't care if it's Oral Roberts, T. L. Osborn! I don't care how great they are; I don't care who it is. If God's Word be true, then let every man be a liar. To the law and to the testimony if they don't speak according to the Message of Christ in this hour, they are a false prophet and a false anointed one.

 

Isa. 8:20   To the law and to the testimony: if they speak not according to this word, it is because there is no light in them.

 

Brother Branham said, "The false anointed ones are not deceived with the prophet, but they are deceived with the prophet's message." And the false anointed ones teach the baptism of the Holy Ghost, but their teaching on the Holy Ghost is wrong.

 

25 ANOINTED.ONES.AT.END.TIME -- JEFF.IN - V-5 N-3 - 65-0725.1M

Now, anointed one is "one with a message." And the only way the message can be brought out is by one that's anointed; and that would be a prophet--anointed. "There shall rise false anointed teachers." A prophet teaches what his message is--anointed teachers, but anointed people with false teaching, anointed ones: christs, plural; prophets, plural. And if there is such a thing as a Christ, singular, then these would have to be anointed ones that their prophecy of what they were teaching would be the difference, because they are anointed ones, anointed.

He said, "I saw God setting upon a throne." Said, "I saw all the council around Him."

I forget what I was referring to on the Scripture. Matthew 7:21.

Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.

Many shall say unto me in that day, Lord, Lord, have not we prophesied... (Prophets, anointed ones. That's right! Wasn't we a prophet? Wasn't we anointed, anointed one. Have not I prophesied in Thy Name? And in Thy Name have not I cast out devils?" How can you do that and refuse to be baptized in Jesus Name? Oh, my! See how deceiving? Right up to that very point, then drop back. They go right up to the Word, then drop back. Now, watch this. We get this out, just a minute.)

Many will say unto me... Lord, Lord have not we prophesied... (We been prophets. Yeah, I spoke of that in Matthew 24:24.)... and in thy name... cast out devils? and in thy name done many--many... works?

And then will I confess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, you that work iniquity. ("When it was put right before you and you seen it, and seen it moving, seen it was the Word, and for your denominational sake you just held into it. I never even knew you. I don't care how many devils you cast out, how many you did this and that, I knew nothing about you."

Balaam said, "I prophesied right in Your Name; and it come to pass."

"That's exactly right, but when it come to the Word you refused it." Oh, brother. See the deceiving part? Not prophet exactly, but with the Word, true Word, vindicated Word, made manifest. "You workers of iniquity...

 

Now, notice God's plan in this hour. He has got one plan, that's all. And if you are going to go in the Rapture, you got to find that plan! How many want to find that plan?

All right. Has not every body had their day? Has not all the preachers put their interpretation out world—wide? You know that man from India, that hundreds of people moved over there because he said he has The Son of Man Ministry. And he said the Rapture would take place in February, and they got a few hundred thousand dollars and they'll pay your way over to Israel .

 

Israel is packed full of Mosses and Elijahs right now. I have got letters right in my home. Of course, they believe that I'm Elijah and they're Moses. I got over five letters, (or three or four letters) in my home, and I know personally, four or five men that believe that they're prophets to Israel. Don't you see how the devil always goes ahead and tries  (not clear) ?

 

And they prophesied that they're the Son of Man and Moses, going over to Israel and bring the message to the Jews. It just won't move the Jews, Just rest assured, put it down - the Rapture will not take place at all in February.

 

When all that stuff came out of the United States and some of my good friends went over there, and Bro. Ruddell asked me about it, when we were sitting in a car. I said, "Bro. Ruddell, all I know is what He told me, That's all I know, But, I said, "I will tell you this, they all must have their say before Christ comes on the scene." All that is just a test to see what the Bride will do. And I said, "It won't move God's servant." And when I said that, there He come, down through that parking lot!

 

Now every man over in the United States has put out their prophecy, and every one has failed! And now the Rapture is to take place in February, and you got to be in Israel if you're going. You will still be here right in February. See what a deception it is? You're not going to get ready between now and February. I wish we could get ready that quick. But, what I'm wondering is how they're going to get back to India when the Jews get tired of them.

 

I sure am acquainted with that. One boy raised up in my church— angels was supposed to have appeared to him, and he took seventy percent of the people that sat under the pure Word of God for three to four years. Said angels appeared to him. And I got up and said, in the Name of the Lord, "Thus saith the Lord" it's not of God! I said, "Every sheep stand beside me or you will perish." Seventy percent of them goats left there. That man went out of there, and I said, "They won't get a revival!"

And them women would stand out there and say, "Oh, Bro. Bob God's going to move!" Watch them women! Watch them women, boys! They set and heard me preach, and they sit and take notes and take notes. Stood out there, right in my face, after I said, "In the Name of the Lord." And wouldn't even bow their heads when I prayed. They was so mad at me. They thought I was going to go along with that thing.

 

I said, "I want nothing to do with it. It's not of God." I said, "If God ever spoke to me, it's not of God!" I don't care, (they had angels and dreams) I don't care about angels, dreams or any other thing. It was not of God! They said, "God changed horses." He was riding with Bro. Lambert, but now He's riding with this man.

 

Now he went out on a limb and sold all that he had and wanted all the people to move to Israel. But, by that time they saw what I said come to pass and they left him. But they can't come back to my church. They are not bringing that junk back in my church. They came back and thought I was going to let them back. No, not back in there!

 

Four or five prophets over in Israel, all of them claiming they're Moses and Elijah. And the real ones are two little brothers that do not know nothing about it.

 

How many thank God for truth? Oh, I'm so thankful to God that the Seals were opened! Thank God, that there is truth in the land!

 

Now notice, here is Jesus saying "Lift up your heads, your redemption draweth nigh when you see all these things coming to pass false Christs, etc. Lift up your heads, your redemption draweth nigh." Now, I believe, that regeneration and restoration is all the same thing. And regeneration in the Greek, means Messianic Restoration. Showing you that true restoration and true redemption will only come by the Son of Man! How many believe that?

 

Now, notice here Peter said, "What are we going to receive, we that followed you?"

 

18

Page 19: €¦  · Web viewMatt. 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of

And He said, "All you that follow the Son of Man in regeneration Now, what was it? Here was God's plan to redemption! Right there among the disciples. And where was it at? It was hid in a man!

 

The Bible said - Paul said, "We have this treasure in earthen vessels." And over there, Jeremiah took the scrolls and hid them in an clay vessel. God takes His revelation and His Word, and hides It down in a clay jar!

 

Now, notice here, you brethren, you disciples that are following the Son of Man in regeneration shall receive Eternal Life. That's one thing. And, then when the Millennium comes, you'll set upon, or  the New World comes you will set upon twelve tribes, judging the nations, and over in the Millennium, you will judge Israel.

 

But, now notice, He said, "Follow the Son of Man in regeneration." Notice, regeneration, restoration and redemption are all one and the same thing. In other words, regeneration, restoration and redemption means all the same thing. So He said, "Lift up your heads, your redemption draweth nigh." So He really said, "Your restoration is at hand, but first you'll have these earthquakes and all these perplexities."

 

We found out that all these earthquakes and all these things prophesied in the Scripture, is only for right now. In other words, restoration, regeneration and redemption will come at that last day. How many are seeing that?

 

Now notice, redemption has been spoken of ever since God had been dealing with man, beginning with Adam and Eve. Adam was a Spoken Word. Right? He was a perfect creation of God. And Eve came out of his side, and she was a by-product. Now, she was out of his side, and that's how she got into all the trouble. If she would have stayed in Adam, she would never have fell.

 

And the very reason we fell from Pentecost is because we came out of Adam, Christ, and we became a by-product of denominations. If we had been in Christ, we wouldn't have had to have a restoration. But we got outside of Christ and we fell. And there's got to be a way for us to be redeemed back to Pentecost - got to be a way back to the power the apostles had.

19

There was a way made for Eve to come back to the side of Christ. There was going to be a way made for Eve to come back to the side of her Adam.

 

Now notice when Adam and Eve did the thing God told them not to do, then they realized that they were naked. And they went out and made them selves a way of salvation. Salvation is a covering. Adam knew he done wrong, so he made a fig-leaf religion. That fig-leaf religion might have been alright for that day, but, that afternoon God came down.

 

God came down - the first Messenger to the earth. God came down and His Voice walked through the Garden in the cool of the evening. At evening time, after it got cool, He said, "Adam, where art thou?" And that fig—leaf religion was alright until that Voice spoke! When the Voice spoke, Adam got scared and hid himself. The Voice said, "Adam, where art thou?"

 

He said, "I'm over here hiding."

 

Let me tell you something, brother we had a fig-leafed religion thus far and we thought it was alright but the Voice of God is beginning to speak to us and we gotta run and hide ourselves. We got to get rid of this fig leaf religion and let God clothe us with a lamb! We need a covering. Not a fig leaf, but a bloody revealed word of God! The fig leaf was alright, until the voice spoke and they realized they were naked!

 

God knew what it took to cover them. So He was going to give them a substitute to live under, until the time of redemption and restoration came about. So what did He do? He killed a natural lamb which only typified the real Spiritual Lamb. He gave them a natural lamb covering, with the blood dripping down their legs. But as He put them out of the Garden. He gave them a promise that there would be a way made in the endtime, that Adam and Eve could be brought back - restored back to the Garden of Eden.

 

And when the Lord Jesus Christ came on the scene as the Son of Man, He came on the scene as the Son of Man to redeem fallen man, to restore fallen man. He was bringing a restoration to all those who had fallen under the sin of Eden, from the Garden of Eden to the coming of the Christ.

20

Now, look here. When those that had received His Message, following the regeneration of the Son of Man, and Peter got a revelation of who the Christ was, and was being regenerated by the revelation of that hour -- we find 120 followed the Son of Man in that day -- He sent them to the Upper Room and commanded them to wait there until they be endued with power from on High. And what happened? God sent them the baptism of the Holy Ghost on the day of Pentecost, and restored them back to where they fell from in the garden of Eden. He restored to fallen man the power that Adam had in the Garden of Eden.

 

Brother, if that was God's plan of redemption in that hour, in the Son of Man bringing the Revealed Word to His disciples, the predestinated seed of that hour, then it ever remains true that, if we are going to be converted and redeemed and brought back to what Adam took away from us, (Pentecost took away from us) then we're gonna have to be regenerated by the Prophet of God's Message today - the Son of Man! Do you believe that?

 

Notice there, they were turned back to what they had lost through the fallen Adam. But notice there, that all those that died under the substitute blood, that when the real Christ, the Son of Man, was put to death and raised from the dead and ascended on High He led captivity captive and brought all those patriarch saints up out of the graves, and ascended on High with them, because He was the Redeemer! He was the restoration! He brought them up out of the grave!

 

Now, here we see how Christ, the Son of Man and those that followed Him in that day, was regenerated and converted by following His Ministry in that day, they became regenerated, converted, born again, and restored back to where Adam and Eve fell from - by following that Ministry of the Son of Man.

 

Now, notice here, we come right over here and see that we have been living through Seven Church Ages, and them Seven Church Ages was given because of transgression. They went on into the Church Ages because the apostles doctrine was lost. The revelation was lost, and they died and went into the ground. So God added Seven Church Ages as a time of a schoolmaster, or a substitute until the time that the Seed came to whom the promise was made. In other words, the Seed that was going to be the Bride, to be RAPTURED.

 

Gal. 3:16   Now to Abraham and his seed were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds, as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed, which is Christ.

Gal. 3:17   And this I say, that the covenant, that was confirmed before of God in Christ, the law, which was four hundred and thirty years after, cannot disannul, that it should make the promise of none effect.

Gal. 3:18   For if the inheritance be of the law, it is no more of promise: but God gave it to Abraham by promise.

Gal. 3:19   Wherefore then serveth the law? It was added because of transgressions, till the seed should come to whom the promise was made; and it was ordained by angels in the hand of a mediator.

 

Oh! Here it is Honey! You were chosen by God, before the foundation of the world, not to be born in Noah's day, not to be born in Elijah's day, not to be born in Peter's day, but God predestinated you to be born at the end of the Seventh Church Age. And God chose you to be the predestinated geed to whom the promise of the Token was made, so that you might be regenerated, converted and redeemed back to where fallen Adam fell from! That God would restore you back to the Garden of Eden. He would buy you back, - redeem you back to everything that Adam had. Everything that Adam possessed, He reserved for the endtime, for the predestinated Royal Seed of Abraham, who staggered not at the promise of God, but was strong in faith giving glory to God!

 

Rom. 4:16   Therefore it is of faith, that it might be by grace; to the end the promise might be sure to all the seed; not to that only which is of the law, but to that also which is of the faith of Abraham; who is the father of us all,

Rom. 4:17    (As it is written, I have made thee a father of many nations,) before him whom he believed, even God, who quickeneth the dead, and calleth those things which be not as though they were.

Rom. 4:18   Who against hope believed in hope, that he might become the father of many nations, according to that which was spoken, So shall thy seed be.

Rom. 4:19   And being not weak in faith, he considered not his own body now dead, when he was about an hundred years old, neither yet the deadness of Sarah's womb:

Rom. 4:20   He staggered not at the promise of God through unbelief; but was strong in faith, giving glory to God;

Rom. 4:21   And being fully persuaded that, what he had promised, he was able also to perform.

Rom. 4:22   And therefore it was imputed to him for righteousness.

Rom. 4:23   Now it was not written for his sake alone, that it was imputed to him;

Rom. 4:24   But for us also, to whom it shall be imputed, if we believe on him that raised up Jesus our Lord from the dead;

Rom. 4:25   Who was delivered for our offenses, and was raised again for our justification.

 

Rom. 5:1   Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

 

God has predestinated every one of you to be born in this endtime, because the promise is of faith, not works. the promise is of faith to the Seed that was to be here on earth at the end of the Seventh Church Age. You were predestinated and foreordained to be born and living in the endtime when the Son of Man's Ministry would again come upon the earth

 

And Jesus said to those that see the time of the end, when earthquakes in divers places and all these perplexities of nations - He said to the elected Seed that is living then, "Lift up your heads for your redemption draweth nigh."

 

Notice now here is a sledgehammer! Notice that salvation and redemption and restoration could not have come in any of these Seven Church Age! It could not have happened! We were predestinated and foreordained to be living here in the endtime to be under the Son of Man's Ministry, to be regenerated and converted! Is that right??

 

He said, "Lift up your heads, your redemption draweth nigh." Why? Because Christ knew where that Son of Man Ministry was coming from. It was coming from Heaven with a Shout with a Voice of the Archangel.

 

He said, "Look up there, 'cause He will be coming down out of Heaven."  He never said, "Look to this age here." He said, "Do not look to any of these denominations here." No Sir! He said, "Lift up your heads, your redemption draweth nigh." In other words, look up there to Heaven, because there will be something coming down out of Heaven to show you the Light!

What do you think my brother Adam had? Listen, Adam was God of the earth. His father was God of Heaven, but he was God of the earth! Eve could say, "Honey, I want that banana tree over here." He would just speak the word and there would be the banana tree.

 

He had control of the fowls of the air. He would just say, "Eagle, come set on my shoulder." He would see a lion walk through there; he could say, "Leo, come over here and lay down. "

 

He was God of the earth. All he had to do was speak the word. He was God of the earth. He had control of all vegetation and all the elements, and everything that was in the Garden. Animals and beasts and birds of the air. He was god of the earth!

 

Gen. 1:26   And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth.

 

But, when he sold out and disobeyed God and fell, he lost all that. But God promised there would come a Seed that would destroy the devil. He said to the woman "I will give you a Seed that will bruise his head."

 

Gen. 3:15   And I will put enmity between thee and the woman, and between thy seed and her seed; it shall bruise thy head, and thou shalt bruise his heel.

 

That was the Messianic promise, and notice, regeneration comes through the Messianic Ministry. The Son of Man's Ministry, The Prophet of God, because only that Great White Eagle, Prophet of God, Christ, has the plan of redemption!

 

When that Great White Eagle come there, after John the Baptist's ministry, he come so humble and came out of a place they thought not. "Why," they said, "how does this man know these things having never learned?" Said, "Where does He get this doctrine at? He don't preach like other preachers. He speaks with a Voice, and He sounds like He knows what He's talking about. We know He's just a carpenter up there; Is He not Joseph's son, that we all know? He come down and put a door on my house. I didn't know all that was in Him!"

Little did they know that, He was the Seed that was promised. He was sure who He was. He was so positive of His Ministry, that He turned around to the church of that day, and they said, "We don't kill you for good works, but we kill you because you make yourself God."

 

He said, "If you call them gods to whom the word of God come to, how can you condemn me when I say I'm the Son of God?"

 

They said, "We don't kill you for a good work, But you're making yourself equal with God!"

He said, "Moses spoke of me!" Said, "The prophet spoke of me!" Moses said, "The Lord our God will raise up a Prophet like unto me. Him shall you hear, and whoever won't hear him, shall be cut off from the people "

 

John 5:45   Do not think that I will accuse you to the Father: there is one that accuseth you, even Moses, in whom ye trust.

John 5:46     For had ye believed Moses, ye would have believed me: for he wrote of me.

 

Deut. 18:13   Thou shalt be perfect with the LORD thy God.

Deut. 18:14   For these nations, which thou shalt possess, hearkened unto observers of times, and unto diviners: but as for thee, the LORD thy God hath not suffered thee so to do.

Deut. 18:15   The LORD thy God will raise up unto thee a Prophet from the midst of thee, of thy brethren, like unto me; unto him ye shall hearken;

Deut. 18:16   According to all that thou desiredst of the LORD thy God in Horeb in the day of the assembly, saying, Let me not hear again the voice of the LORD my God, neither let me see this great fire any more, that I die not.

Deut. 18:17   And the LORD said unto me, They have well spoken that which they have spoken.

Deut. 18:18   I will raise them up a Prophet from among their brethren, like unto thee, and will put my words in his mouth; and he shall speak unto them all that I shall command him.

Deut. 18:19   And it shall come to pass, that whosoever will not hearken unto my words which he shall speak in my name, I will require it of him.

 

And He turned around to the Jews and said, "If you don't believe that I am He, you shall die in your sins!" Said, "If you don't believe that I am that One, you shall die in your sins!!" Why? Because He knew that He had the plan to the blood. He knew that without the shedding of blood, there was no remission of sins. He knew if they turned down His Ministry, they would die.

 

John 8:23   And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.

John 8:24   I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am he, ye shall die in your sins.

 

He said, "He that believeth on me, as the Scripture has said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water "

 

John 7:37   In the last day, that great day of the feast, Jesus stood and cried, saying, If any man thirst, let him come unto me, and drink.

John 7:38   He that believeth on me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

John 7:39    (But this spake he of the Spirit, which they that believe on him should receive: for the Holy Ghost was not yet given; because that Jesus was not yet glorified.)

John 7:40   Many of the people therefore, when they heard this saying, said, Of a truth this is the Prophet.

John 7:41   Others said, This is the Christ. But some said, Shall Christ come out of Galilee?

John 7:42   Hath not the scripture said, That Christ cometh of the seed of David, and out of the town of Bethlehem, where David was?

John 7:43   So there was a division among the people because of him.

 

They said, "We want to do the works of god."

 

He said, "This is the work of God right now, that you believe on Him whom God has sent." He that heareth my Words, and believeth on Him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall never come into the tribulation, but is passed from death unto life!"

 

John 6:27   Labour not for the meat which perisheth, but for that meat which endureth unto everlasting life, which the Son of man shall give unto you: for him hath God the Father sealed.

John 6:28   Then said they unto him, What shall we do, that we might work the works of God?

John 6:29   Jesus answered and said unto them, This is the work of God, that ye believe on him whom he hath sent.

 

How do you get Eternal Life? By a shiver going down your back? By a vision? By speaking in tongues? No! By hearing the Son of Man! By hearing the right Message! By hearing the One that God has ordained to bring the plan of redemption! No wonder that man, Jesus could tell those priests and all those Scribes and Pharisees when they were raking Him over the coals; He said, "If you don't believe that I am He, you shall die in your sins!" you will go right on, dead! Why? Because He knew who He was!

 

Brother, I tell you if we ever needed a man to come on the scene that realized who He was, and where He stood in the Word of God, it's now!!

 

They said, "Moses gave us the bread from Heaven!"

He said, "No Moses never gave you the Bread from Heaven." He said, "My father, God gave you manna from Heaven." But he never gave you the bread from Heaven! And, He said, "Every one of your carcasses died in the wilderness." He said, "All that ate that manna are every one dead!" He said, "My Father giveth you Bread from Heaven." He said, "I am the Bread that cometh down from Heaven." He said, "Lift up your heads, your redemption draweth nigh." Why? Because I'm that barley loaf of bread, and I'm gonna come rolling down out of Heaven!

 

John 6:47   Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me hath everlasting life.

John 6:48   I am that bread of life.

John 6:49   Your fathers did eat manna in the wilderness, and are dead.

John 6:50   This is the bread which cometh down from heaven, that a man may eat thereof, and not die.

 

He believed His Message was so from God, that He could make a statement like that. He said, "If a man eat of this Bread, he shall live forever!" He turned around and said, "Except you eat the flesh and drink the blood of The Son of Man you don't have any of the Holy Ghost!" Amen!

 

John 6:51   I am the living bread which came down from heaven: if any man eat of this bread, he shall live for ever: and the bread that I will give is my flesh, which I will give for the life of the world.

John 6:52   The Jews therefore strove among themselves, saying, How can this man give us his flesh to eat?

John 6:53   Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

 

What we got today at the end of these Seven Church Ages is a prophet of God that called a mixed multitude out. They know about Moses, but they don't know about the God of Moses. They have eaten the manna that fell down from Heaven but they have not ate the Bread that fell down from Heaven. They don't know nothing about the Bread that came down from Heaven. It was hid underneath the Seal! Is that right?

He said, "Lift up your heads, your redemption draweth nigh." And He said, "They that follow the Son of Man in regeneration, shall receive everlasting Life."

 

And, look here, in Luke 17:30, The Son of Man was promised to come again in the endtime, at the end of the Seven Church Ages. When they put the Son of God on the outside the church. The Bible said, "As it was in the days of Noah when the ark was preparing."

 

In other words, so shall it be also, in the second coming of The Son of Man, that Jesus Christ, The Son of Man, would come down from Heaven and hide Himself in some human being, and He would give you that Bread. And, every elected Eagle that eats of that Bread, shall live forever!

 

How are you Going to be regenerated by eating the Bread from Heaven? Jesus, the Son of Man in His first coming said, "He that eateth my flesh," (and His flesh was His Message) "he that eateth my Message, and drinketh my blood."

 

Now, Peter never drank His blood that flowed out of His side at Calvary! He never went up there with a cup and drank that blood! But, when they ate the Message of His Voice! They knew that He was the Christ! They knew that He was the Anointed One! They knew that He had the Revealed Word! And so they ate the Revealed Word of God and when they did, they drank His blood and He forgave them for all their sins. God freely justified them boys!

 

Rom. 3:24   Being justified freely by his grace through the redemption that is in Christ Jesus:

Rom. 3:25   Whom God hath set forth to be a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God;

Rom. 3:26   To declare, I say, at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.

 

No wonder Jesus said, "He that believeth on me, as the Scripture has said out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water!" Why? Because He said, "My Words are Spirit and they are Life!"

John 6:58   This is that bread which came down from heaven: not as your fathers did eat manna, and are dead: he that eateth of this bread shall live for ever.

John 6:59   These things said he in the synagogue, as he taught in Capernaum.

John 6:60   Many therefore of his disciples, when they had heard this, said, This is an hard saying; who can hear it?

John 6:61   When Jesus knew in himself that his disciples murmured at it, he said unto them, Doth this offend you?

John 6:62   What and if ye shall see the Son of man ascend up where he was before?

John 6:63   It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.

 

When you eat the flesh of the Message of the Son of Man promised in this endtime - when you believe that - when you eat that, you automatically receive everlasting Life!      I believe it!!!!!

 

Bro. Branham said, on "Stature of a Perfect Man", "This is the message I'm gonna preach this morning on the perfect man, that is going to be redeemed at the end of the Church Ages, at the opening of the Seven Seals."

 

1-6 STATURE.OF.A.PERFECT.MAN -- JEFF.IN - V-2 N-18 - 62-1014.1M

And this morning we want to speak on the subject... or teach rather, if we can: Building the Living Tabernacle... Building the... Building the Living Tabernacle of the Living God's Dwelling Place: The Perfect Man--the Living Tabernacle of the Living God, where He dwells. And if...

6-4 STATURE.OF.A.PERFECT.MAN -- JEFF.IN - V-2 N-18 - 62-1014.1M

Now, we are approaching the Seven Seals. We've just finished the Seven Church Ages, and this is a message on teaching that ties the man in that's going to be redeemed by the Blood of the Lord Jesus, and is going to be in that Church Age--that Eternal Church Age at the end of the Seals. Now, we know that we have Seven Trumpets, Seven Plagues, Vials, and so forth, that we get into as we go along, but we're waiting for more room so the people can be seated.

In other words, God would come down from Heaven with a Shout, and then with a Voice, with a Message so great and so perfect on the Word of God, The Bridegroom. Bro. Branham said, "When the Bridegroom comes He will make the Word of God so plain to the Bride, that it will unite the Bride to the Bridegroom." Why? Because they will see their names in the Lamb's Book of Life! They'll know that that is their eye!

 

105 THE.UNITING.TIME.AND.SIGN -- JEFF.IN -- V-6 N-10 -- 63-0818

We see the nations uniting, we see the world uniting, we see the churches uniting. We see the Bride uniting, uniting with the Word. Why? The Word is God. And as the Word... As the Bridegroom (being the Word), and the Bride (being the hearer of the Word), they come together in union. They unite like a wedding. See, they're getting ready for a wedding, and they--they become one. The Word becomes you, you become the Word. Jesus said, "At That day,... You know what? All the Father is, I am; and all I am, you are; and all you are, I am. In that day you'll know that I'm in the Father, Father in Me, I in you, and you in Me." See? At "that day." What day? This day! See, find out the great hidden mysteries of God being revealed. Oh, how I like that!

115 THE.UNITING.TIME.AND.SIGN -- JEFF.IN -- V-6 N-10 -- 63-0818

The thing I've been teaching to you here, is telling you these signs and different things a-happening, I haven't got time to do it now; will in another message, the Lord willing. But there's one little thing yet lacking in the Church. And we want that, to get to that, and I'm right on the edge of it now. See? We want to get to that, if... you got to do it. If you don't do it, that's just all. You must do it. For looky, the uniting time is at hand, for God is getting the Church together to be a--a Rapture to go to the wedding for the Great Union: when God and man will unite for Eternity, when creatures of time unite with the Eternal.

122 THE.UNITING.TIME.AND.SIGN -- JEFF.IN -- V-6 N-10 -- 63-0818

Look at the uniting! God uniting the Church with His Word, the Word with the Church, that they both become the same, "Say this, and it'll happen. Do this, and it'll happen. This is it; this is Me before you, this is Me proving it; this is Me with you."

We find that now the time comes when the Trumpet sounds, and those sleeping saints back there that could not be made perfect without us (there's many of those Hebrew brethren), and when they come together, they unite with the living ones. The Church uniting with the Word, then the Church and the Word uniting together, being come one. The dead saints with the living saints uniting together to be one; and all going together to unite with Christ yonder, for the Wedding Supper of the Lamb.

John 6:53   Then Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except ye eat the flesh of the Son of man, and drink his blood, ye have no life in you.

 

You can say you believe Moses. You can say --. He said, "Search the tapes; search the books, and they are they that testify of me. And, if you don't believe that I am he you shall die in your sins. But he that eateth my flesh and drinketh my blood hath Eternal Life!"

 

John 5:37   And the Father himself, which hath sent me, hath borne witness of me. Ye have neither heard his voice at any time, nor seen his shape.

John 5:38   And ye have not his word abiding in you: for whom he hath sent, him ye believe not.

John 5:39    Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me.

John 5:40   And ye will not come to me, that ye might have life.

John 5:41   I receive not honour from men.

 

E-46 WE.WOULD.SEE.JESUS -- SPOKANE.WA -- 62-0712

That's the reason they couldn't believe Jesus. They couldn't understand Him. He said unto them "Search the Scriptures. They are They that testify of Me. Search the Scriptures." He said to those learned priests, scholars, "You search the Scriptures. They are the Ones that testify of Me." In other words, "They... I manifest the Scriptures. I am making God's Word become reality. Search the Scriptures." They had their own idea about it; but He had the right way.

They had the way the Messiah was coming probably down the golden corridors and shake hands with Caiaphas, the high priest, that'd be coming his way. But look what He come. He never come contrary to the Scriptures. He come exactly the way the Scriptures said. He said, "Search the Scriptures. They are They that testify of Me. They... I make the Scriptures manifest; and if I do not the manifestation by My works, then don't believe Me."

Oh, what a statement! A man that could take the written Word of God and make it come to pass right before them. And still by their traditions they turned Him down. No wonder broad is the

way that leads to destruction. That's right. Strait is the gate and narrow the way that leads to life. Christ standing there!

 

Notice here, how are we gonna be regenerated? How are we gonna be born again? Nicodemus came to Jesus by night. It was causing so much trouble he had to slip over there you know! He come over there and said, "Brother, we know you're a teacher come from God. We know that."

 

Jesus never fooled around. He got right to the point. He said, "Brother, you got to be born again."

 

He said, "Born again?! I've already been born!"

 

He said, "I know it, but you got to be born again."

 

(Bro. Bob tells of a brother in Pennsylvania who couldn't agree with his teaching on the New Birth when he first heard it. He came up after the service and asked, "Are you trying to say I am not Born Again??"  Bro. Bob said, "No, Brother I am not trying to tell you that!" "Good," answered the brother, "because I would not believe that any way!" I said, "I knew that." But after hearing a number of times, he seemed to see it, and he said, "It's getting to me.")

 

You know, Jesus, The Son of Man that preacher, got right to his problem. Said, "You got to be born again."

 

Born Again! My, I'm already born. How can I be born again? Must I enter back into that church again and come back out again?"

 

John 3:2   The same came to Jesus by night, and said unto him, Rabbi, we know that thou art a teacher come from God: for no man can do these miracles that thou doest, except God be with him.

John 3:3   Jesus answered and said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born again, he cannot see the kingdom of God.

John 3:4   Nicodemus saith unto him, How can a man be born when he is old? can he enter the second time into his mother's womb, and be born?

John 3:5   Jesus answered, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except a man be born of water and of the Spirit, he cannot enter into the kingdom of God.

John 3:6   That which is born of the flesh is flesh; and that which is born of the Spirit is spirit.

John 3:7   Marvel not that I said unto thee, Ye must be born again.

 

Jesus said to Nicodemus, "Verily verily, except a man be born again," (now, this is at the end of the Seven Church Ages) "he cannot see the Kingdom of Heaven." And now The Kingdom of Heaven is none other than the Token itself!

 

Do you know what's wrong with all these preachers here in Trinidad, fighting this Message - and over in the United States and around the world - the reason they fight it? It's because they're not born again.

 

Because if you're not born again you'll fight that. And there ain't a man sitting here whose mind never fought the New Birth. There ain't a preacher in this congregation who hasn't fought it.

 

I said, "The devil will come to you." (Bro. Ruddell) He will tell you. The devil tried to turn him against me. Both of them (Bro. Ruddell and Canada) will tell you that. Why?

 

Because, we have been laying brick right along down through here. Mal. 4:5 laid brick right along but he said, "We're going to have to turn a corner. It's going to be hard." And he said, "Death ain't easy but you got to die."

Certainly! How shall we escape if we neglect such? You neglect to eat; you'll die. You neglect to turn a corner; you'll wreck. You neglect to milk the cow; she will go dry. You neglect your teeth; you'll have to have them all pulled out. Certainly! You pay for your neglecting.

That they --they feel that as long as it don't bother them, why, they'll--they'll do it. But when it comes time that they've got to change their ideas about things, that's when the trouble comes.

Now, see, we are building a building, not a wall. The builders want to take a line of blocks and just go straight down. Now any builder can build that. But it takes a real master mechanic to turn a corner. See? When you got to cut the corner, that's the time it takes... it shows whether you're a--you're a... really a stone mason or not; when you can turn the corner with it, and keep the continuity of the rest of the building, but turn the corner. Now it's on these corners is when trouble comes. The builders want to keep building on down. But we're not building a wall; but, a building.

 

You got to die to that first birth and be born again. Jesus said, "Except a man be Born Again, he cannot see the Token." And Bro. Branham said, "see" means to understand.

 

E-73 THE.MARK.OF.THE.BEAST -- LONG.BEACH.CA -- 61-0217

But if you hear the trumpet... See, hearing, faith cometh by what? Hearing. Now, not--not just listen with your ear , but if you hear that means you understand it, you accept it. "I hear you, I believe it." See? It's hearing. Stephen said, "You stiff-necked, uncircumcised in the heart and ears." See, uncircumcised. They could hear it with the ears but uncircumcised they couldn't believe it. See? Uncircumcised in the heart and ears, understand it. "Oh, it's all a mystery to me, like Cain. Take it or leave it. I joined church, that's as good as I can do." All right, Cain. You'll mark with the beast and go right on off in your denomination. But you can come to Christ and be sealed by the Holy Ghost. You can take your choice.

Now, watch. You hear the Gospel... What is the Gospel trumpet? The good news, the Holy Ghost is here. How do you know it is? Watch It work, see what It does. It's the good news.

What a blessed promise. Faith in God. It's a staggering thing to many people. And yet we ought to be ashamed of ourselves to confess that we don't have faith in God. First, there is cowards who die ten thousand deaths while they're here on earth, and a hero never dies. His memories linger on for his great heroic deeds. And usually people who have faith are people who have experience. Experience brings faith.

I think that's the reason that the Bible teaches us--Jesus said in Saint John the 3rd chapter, "Except a man be borned again he cannot understand the kingdom of God." Now, that's quoting from the original. In the--the King James it said: "He cannot see." But the word doesn't mean see, like you look with your eyes; it means to understand. You can't see the Kingdom anyhow. You must understand it. And Jesus said, "Except a man be borned again first, he will--cannot understand the kingdom of God."

 

In other words, he'll think he's already born again and filled with the Holy Ghost. And then some man— the Son of Man Ministry tells you, you got to be Born Again. And then he can't see it. And the reason all these preachers here in Trinidad can't see it, is because they are not Born Again. They're trying to carry over a hybrid birth they got over there from a denominational whore's womb. God ain't going to bring the Christ out of a whore's womb - he's going to take a virgin womb.

 

The very reason why these preachers in Trinidad are not here tonight, that are following Mal. 4:5, is because they are not born again. Jesus said to that preacher, "If you were born again, you would see the Token."

 

What was the message of John the Baptist? The Word is coming!! Another One is coming!" That was his message, and he said, "The Token is at hand!"

 

Come on, all you hypocrite preachers, you! Why do you think the Prophet of God said the Token message was the highlight message of his ministry?

 

9 DESPERATION -- JEFF.IN -- V-4 N-1 -- 63-0901.2E

This morning, the message this morning was to me the highlights message of my entire ministry, this morning (see?), highlight message of my entire ministry. Someday I will tell you how it come about. And I know that everything has worked for months and months and months up to that one message, moving up to come to that place. That was the capping-off time of it.

Now, I'm sure, or hope, that you got the--what the Token meant. See? The Token is the sign that the Blood has been applied, that the price that's been asked, required of God, Jesus paid that price by shedding His own Blood. He did that. Then, from His life came the Holy Spirit. And when the Blood is applied to you, the Holy Spirit is the Token that your price is paid. God has received you, and that's the Token. Remember, that is the Token.

Now, there's many people who doesn't... They--they don't know what that Token is (see?), and you have to make it like that nobody knows it (see?), so that the--all of them will get it. Just like preaching salvation, we have to preach salvation in a way that everybody--it's for everybody, which we know it isn't. We have to preach Divine healing for everybody, yet we know it isn't. See? Jesus come to save those who was in the Book of Redemption before the foundation of the world. He only come to save those. Who they are, I don't know. See? But you--nobody can have faith unless you say it's for whosoever, and it is. Nobody can come unless God's called them. That is true.

So there's many people that won't be saved. We know that. They're the... God knew that before the world began, that they wouldn't be saved. There's many that won't be healed (see?), many that won't be healed. They just can't--they can't grasp it. They don't know what it is. Many will be. But we preach it that it's for everybody, because we don't know who that person is; we just don't know. But that is a whosoever. But some people just can't grasp that faith.

Now, and the same thing about this Token. The Token, we have talked to the Token all the way along, but now is the manifestation of the Token. See?

 

These hypocrite preachers are trying to take you to the tribulation! That's right! A bunch of hypocrites! You know what a hypocrite is? He's a play-actor, playing and acting like he's got the Holy Ghost. but you know that they're liars!

 

Jesus said, there in Revelation, the third chapter, to the little, elected Seed, "You have those there that say that they are apostles, and say that they are Spirit-filled, but then you the elected Bride, have found out that they're liars." And when these preachers tell you they don't believe Bro. Lambert in his teaching of the Baptism of the Holy Ghost, and they say that they got it, you tell them that I said that they are liars!

 

Rev. 2:2   I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars:

Said, "You have those preachers there who hold the doctrine of the Nicolaitans" (a bunch of preachers, trying to keep the power away from the laity). "You have them there, that say that they are apostles. But it said, "There is going to come forth a revelation from underneath the Seventh Seal, and you're going to find them out to be liars." And He said, "I am going to make all of them come and bow at your feet, and let them know that I have loved you."

 

Rev. 3:9   Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews, and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them to come and worship before thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.

 

Isa. 49:23   And kings shall be thy nursing fathers, and their queens thy nursing mothers: they shall bow down to thee with their face toward the earth, and lick up the dust of thy feet; and thou shalt know that I am the LORD: for they shall not be ashamed that wait for me.

 

Isa. 60:14   The sons also of them that afflicted thee shall come bending unto thee; and all they that despised thee shall bow themselves down at the soles of thy feet; and they shall call thee, The city of the LORD, The Zion of the Holy One of Israel.

 

"Why, there ain't nobody going to tell me I ain't filled with the Holy Ghost!" You're a liar! And you're a play-actor. You're play-acting you got the Holy Ghost.

 

You know Philip was one time just waiting on tables. But, you know, God sent him to do something after the Token fell. He went up there to Samaria and preached the Word of God to them. You know Jesus said, He had need to go by Samaria. The Son of Man had a need to go by.

 

I believe the Son of Man had a need to go by Trinidad. It's because you got a lot of Simon the sorcerers on this island, wanting to be the great power of God - putting up a tent and turning their back and trying to discern the secrets of the heart. And all the time we found them out to be nothing but liars—false apostles false prophets saying that they already got the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Saying they already got it over in the Seventh Church Age. When it never come into existence!

9-1 THE.TOKEN -- JEFF.IN. -- V-2 N-19 -- 63-0901.1M

Before the Wrath of God passed through the land, the blood had to be applied first. It was too late after the wrath had done fallen.

Now, we have a lesson there that we could really--maybe bring it to your thought, just a moment. Look: before it happened. For there is coming a time that when you'll not be able to have any blood applied.

9-3 THE.TOKEN -- JEFF.IN. -- V-2 N-19 -- 63-0901.1M

The lamb was killed in the evening time, after being kept up for fourteen days. And then the lamb was killed, and the blood was applied in the evening time. You get it?

The token never came into existence until the evening time. And this is the evening time of the age that we live in. This is the evening time for the Church. This is the evening time for me. This is the evening time of my Message. I'm dying; I'm going; I'm moving out in the evening time of the Gospel.

9-5 THE.TOKEN -- JEFF.IN. -- V-2 N-19 -- 63-0901.1M

And we've come up through justification and so forth, but this is the time that the Token has to be applied. I told you last Sunday, I had something I wanted to talk to you about--this is it. The time that when you just can't play with it. It has got to be done. If it is ever going to be done, it has got to be done now, because we can see that the wrath is about ready to pass through the land, and everything from under that Token will perish. The Blood has identified you.

11-3 THE.TOKEN -- JEFF.IN. -- V-2 N-19 -- 63-0901.1M

Therefore, in the days of Wesley, or the days of Luther, it was thought to believe--in the days of Wesley, the chemistry of the blood. But this is the last day where the Token is required. That makes together the whole unit for the rapture. You see it?

Water, blood and spirit come when a mother gives birth to the baby. The first thing breaks in a normal birth is a water; the second thing is a blood; and the next thing is life.

11-5 THE.TOKEN -- JEFF.IN. -- V-2 N-19 -- 63-0901.1M

There came from the body of our Lord Jesus Christ, water, blood and life. And the whole Church, the Bride, together has been made up through justification, sanctification and the Baptism of the Holy Ghost--which is the Token.

As Hebrews 11--says, "All these who wandered about in sheepskins and goatskins and was destitute, and all these things that they done, yet was not made perfect without us."

40

And the Church in this day that's received the Token of the Baptism of the Holy Spirit--that the Blood has been shed, and that the Holy Ghost is upon the Church--without us, then they could not raise, but they're depending on us. For God promised He would have it, and somebody is going to be there! I don't know who it is going to be, but somebody is going to receive it!

There is only one thing I am responsible; is to preach it! It is God's business to look out for that predestinated seed! There is going to be there--all because--they're going to be there each one of them! One with the other--the water age, the blood age, and now the Token age of the Holy Ghost!

And remember, Israel came through many things, but it was evening time when the token was required, not in the morning, not in the preparation of the fourteen days of the keeping up of the lamb.

Israel knowed something was coming--so did Luther know it; so did Wesley know it; so did Finney, Knox, Calvin know it. This is it.

They knew there would come a time that the Pillar of Fire would return back to the Church. They knowed there would come a time that these things would happen. But they didn't live to see it, but they looked forward to it.

Israel knew something was coming, but it was in the evening time when that lamb's blood, the token, was placed on the door. Yet the lamb was already put up.

It has been the lamb all the way through. It was the lamb in Luther's time; it was the lamb in Wesley's time. But now is the Token time, that each house must be covered by the Token. Each house of God must be covered by the Token. All that is inside of it must be covered by the Token.

12-8 THE.TOKEN -- JEFF.IN. -- V-2 N-19 -- 63-0901.1M

Now, the very Spirit Itself is the Token. The Holy Spirit, Itself, is the Token. Not the Blood.

The Blood was shed at Calvary, that is true, but the Blood as far as this, went back into the elements from which it come--from the food that He lived on.

But you see, inside that blood cell was a Life that started the blood cell to moving. If it wasn't, the chemistry had no Life in it itself, and therefore it could not move. But when the Life come into the chemistry of the blood, it formed a cell. It formed its own cell, then cell after cell. And it become a man, and that man was God Emmanuel in flesh. But when that Life returned back to chemistry--went to it. But the Token is the Holy Ghost upon the Church, that they see Christ.

3-1 THE.TOKEN -- JEFF.IN. -- V-2 N-19 -- 63-0901.1M

It has to be, because a woman and her husband become one. They become one, and so does the Bride and Christ become One. The ministry of the Bride and the ministry of Christ is the same.

You remember, "These former treatise, oh, Theophilus, that I wrote to you, that Jesus began to do and continues to do!"

His death didn't stop Him. No, sir, He returned again. Not a third person, but the same Person returned back again in the form of the Holy Ghost, and It continues to work on and continues on, said the Book of Acts.

"Jesus Christ the same, yesterday, today, and forever." That's the Token. That's the sign.

 

You know, the Son of Man had a need to go by Samaria, because there was a little girl there. She was in a terrible state. She come down to that old denominational well of Jacob again to get some more water. They said she was filled but she was still thirsty. So the Son of Man said He had a need to go by Samaria. "There's a little lady up there I want to see." The Bride! And the Son of Man got up there and found her at the well, and He said to her, "Give me a drink."

 

"Oh!" she said, "I heard about you. I ain't supposed to have no dealings with you." I have been told not to have nothing to do with you!

 

He said, "You ought to ask me about this water." He said, "If you knew the Gift of God. Now, what is the Gift of God? The Gift of God is the Token Baptism. Said, "If you knew the Gift of God, you would not have to come back to this well to draw."

 

John 4:7   There cometh a woman of Samaria to draw water: Jesus saith unto her, Give me to drink.

John 4:9   Then saith the woman of Samaria unto him, How is it that thou, being a Jew, askest drink of me, which am a woman of Samaria? for the Jews have no dealings with the Samaritans.

John 4:10   Jesus answered and said unto her, If thou knewest the gift of God, and who it is that saith to thee, Give me to drink; thou wouldest have asked of him, and he would have given thee living water.

John 4:11   The woman saith unto him, Sir, thou hast nothing to draw with, and the well is deep: from whence then hast thou that living water?

John 4:12   Art thou greater than our father Jacob, which gave us the well, and drank thereof himself, and his children, and his cattle?

John 4:13   Jesus answered and said unto her, Whosoever drinketh of this water shall thirst again:

John 4:14   But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

John 4:15   The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw.

 

That's what's the matter with everybody in this hour. they thought the gift of God was speaking in tongues. They didn't know what the gift of God was! They did not know it was a river of living water.

 

19 DESPERATION -- JEFF.IN -- V-4 N-1 -- 63-0901.2E

  Like, talking about it and say, "Tongues is the evidence." Now, I will bare--buy a pair of shoes; the tongue isn't the shoe. It just comes with the shoe. It just comes with the shoe. See? Now, the same thing is the Token. The Token is Christ. But speaking in tongues, and casting out devils, and doing those things, and preaching, and whatever it is, the evidence, it's there, true; but it's--it's not It. See? It's a gift of It.

 

He said, "If you knew Who it was that talked to you, you'd ask of me Living Water." He said, "If you ask, I'll give it to you."

 

Here it is! When your eyes come open to the Gift of God, and Who it talking to you, then you will ask of Him Living Water! Of course, you must get your eyes open to what the Gift of god is.

 

There was a man, one time born blind. Those preachers found out he got his eyes opened, and they all came over to his house. And, it had been noised about all over Trinidad, that if anybody was caught with that preacher, or anyone that believed that, they'd be put out of their synagogue. So, them preachers caught that fellow, whose eyes come open by the Son of Man, and said, "Hey, tell us, are you the one that was blind?" Said, "What was it that opened your eyes?"

 

"Well," he said, "I told you once before and you didn't believe me." He just anointed my eyes and they come open!

43

Page 44: €¦  · Web viewMatt. 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of

He said, "Why do you want to know? Do you want to be His disciples too?"

 

They said, "Oh, no! We be Mal. 4:5's disciples." They said, "Are you trying to tell us about the Message?"

 

He said, "Forgive me, sir but here is a wonderful thing. Here is a man --. Here am I - I've been blind all this time, and here comes a man by, with just one message He anointed and opened my eyes." He said, "Herein is a wonderful work! For we know there was no one ever came to open up our eyes like that!" He said, "Without God, He couldn't do these things. Here is a marvelous work, and you can't tell me where He came from!"

 

Then they came up and grabbed his mother and father. "Is this your son going around with this fellow all over Trinidad?" Said, "Is he the one that was blind?"

 

They said, "He was born blind."

 

Yes, everybody is going around saying they're born but brother they're born blind. I tell you, that all they that hear the Voice of the Son of Man, they don't get born blind, brother! They get Born Again right!

 

John 9:1   And as Jesus passed by, he saw a man which was blind from his birth.

John 9:2   And his disciples asked him, saying, Master, who did sin, this man, or his parents, that he was born blind?

John 9:3   Jesus answered, Neither hath this man sinned, nor his parents: but that the works of God should be made manifest in him.

John 9:4   I must work the works of him that sent me, while it is day: the night cometh, when no man can work.

John 9:5   As long as I am in the world, I am the light of the world.

John 9:6   When he had thus spoken, he spat on the ground, and made clay of the spittle, and he anointed the eyes of the blind man with the clay,

John 9:7   And said unto him, Go, wash in the pool of Siloam, (which is by interpretation, Sent.) He went his way therefore, and washed, and came seeing.

John 9:8   The neighbors therefore, and they which before had seen him that he was blind, said, Is not this he that sat and begged?

John 9:9   Some said, This is he: others said, He is like him: but he said, I am he.

John 9:10   Therefore said they unto him, How were thine eyes opened?

John 9:11   He answered and said, A man that is called Jesus made clay, and anointed mine eyes, and said unto me, Go to the pool of Siloam, and wash: and I went and washed, and I received sight.

John 9:12   Then said they unto him, Where is he? He said, I know not.

John 9:13   They brought to the Pharisees him that aforetime was blind.

John 9:14   And it was the Sabbath day when Jesus made the clay, and opened his eyes.

John 9:15   Then again the Pharisees also asked him how he had received his sight. He said unto them, He put clay upon mine eyes, and I washed, and do see.

John 9:16   Therefore said some of the Pharisees, This man is not of God, because he keepeth not the Sabbath day. Others said, How can a man that is a sinner do such miracles? And there was a division among them.

John 9:17   They say unto the blind man again, What sayest thou of him, that he hath opened thine eyes? He said, He is a prophet.

John 9:18   But the Jews did not believe concerning him, that he had been blind, and received his sight, until they called the parents of him that had received his sight.

John 9:19   And they asked them, saying, Is this your son, who ye say was born blind? how then doth he now see?

John 9:20   His parents answered them and said, We know that this is our son, and that he was born blind:

John 9:21   But by what means he now seeth, we know not; or who hath opened his eyes, we know not: he is of age; ask him: he shall speak for himself.

John 9:22   These words spake his parents, because they feared the Jews: for the Jews had agreed already, that if any man did confess that he was Christ, he should be put out of the synagogue.

John 9:23   Therefore said his parents, He is of age; ask him.

John 9:24   Then again called they the man that was blind, and said unto him, Give God the praise: we know that this man is a sinner.

John 9:25   He answered and said, Whether he be a sinner or no, I know not: one thing I know, that, whereas I was blind, now I see.

John 9:26   Then said they to him again, What did he to thee? how opened he thine eyes?

John 9:27   He answered them, I have told you already, and ye did not hear: wherefore would ye hear it again? will ye also be his disciples?

John 9:28   Then they reviled him, and said, Thou art his disciple; but we are Moses' disciples.

John 9:29   We know that God spake unto Moses: as for this fellow, we know not from whence he is.

John 9:30   The man answered and said unto them, Why herein is a marvelous thing, that ye know not from whence he is, and yet he hath opened mine eyes.

John 9:31   Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will, him he heareth.

John 9:32   Since the world began was it not heard that any man opened the eyes of one that was born blind.

John 9:33   If this man were not of God, he could do nothing.

John 9:34   They answered and said unto him, Thou wast altogether born in sins, and dost thou teach us? And they cast him out.

John 9:35   Jesus heard that they had cast him out; and when he had found him, he said unto him, Dost thou believe on the Son of God?

John 9:36   He answered and said, Who is he, Lord, that I might believe on him?

John 9:37   And Jesus said unto him, Thou hast both seen him, and it is he that talketh with thee.

John 9:38   And he said, Lord, I believe. And he worshipped him.

John 9:39   And Jesus said, For judgment I am come into this world, that they which see not might see; and that they which see might be made blind.

Jesus said to Nicodemus, "Except a man be born again, he can't see the Kingdom of Heaven." He can not understand the preaching on the Token! And, because he can't understand he fights it. He said, "You're born wrong. You must be born again."

 

"Oh," he said, "Must I enter again unto my mother's womb and speak in tongues again? And I already professed to be born again for over forty years. "Now after forty years of professing how am I going to come over here and get Born Again?? I was Justified Sanctified and filled with the Holy Ghost!

 

As the lady down south said, "Bless God, I got the Holy Ghost again last night. It is for the twentieth time and its sweeter every time!

 

Jesus saith unto Nicodemus, "Verily, Verily,- Absolutely, Absolutely Except a man be born of the water and the Spirit, he cannot enter into the Token."

 

Nicodemus said, "How can these things be?"

 

He said, "Ain't you a preacher, and you don't know these things? As long as you've been preaching in this Message, and you don't know! You don't know that, that birth you got over there in the Seventh Church Age won't work over here? You don't know that you got to be born again! Art thou not a master in this city, - in this Message?"

 

(Bro. Bob talks about statements preachers make, and said, that's twice confused and confounded and compounded. Like Bro. Branham said that argument is weaker than the broth from the shadow of a chicken that's starved to death! One brother said, "Oh we had the Word seed, but the

prophet came to germanize it " Can you imagine your Heavenly Father putting a seed in you without His germ in it??)

 

So when you see a person fighting this revelation, just walk away because you know they ain't born again So don't fuss with them Just be kind say, "God bless you, brother you just go down that way and I'll go up there. We will be brothers, but we just can't walk together. It's total separation. You already got your birthright; I'm after mine " By and by we will see who is wrong!

 

Now, look here, that preacher said, "Mal. 4:5 came and germanized the seed, we already had the seed." In other words, we were already born again but he just come to germanize the Word. They are foolish!

 

Now, notice here Jesus, the Son of Man, came at the end of that Seventh Church Age and they followed the Son of Man into regeneration. In other words, all those that followed the Son of Man in His first coming, was reborn again right! And when you are Born Again you are restored back. You are in process of coming back Now you're not completely restored but you're on your way back. Now God is not redeeming us back to Pentecost, but He's redeeming us back to Pentecost, and then on back to Eden!

 

Now, notice here, Bro. Branham said, "The perfect man was going to come in at the end of the Seventh Church Ages, at the opening of the Seventh Seal, by the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ."

 

Notice, the plan to the blood was hid away through the Seven Church Ages, and they were living under a substitute. Martin Luther was saved by a substitute. John Wesley was saved by a substitute—and all down there was saved by a substitute. And every man done that which seemed right in his own eyes. But now, at the end of the Seven Church Ages, there was to come forth a true plan to the blood, and without the shedding of blood, there's no remission of sins - there's no way for remission of sins is that right? Notice, the sins were forgiven through the Church Ages, but they were not done away with.

 

Now notice here, they were living under a substitute, called the Seven Church Ages. And the Seven Church Ages were allotted because of transgression.

Notice, Jesus said, "He that heareth my Words, (His Message) and believeth on him that sent me hath everlasting life, and shall never come into condemnation, (the great tribulation) but is passed from death unto life, and they shall never die!!"

 

Now notice, when the second coming of the Son of Man comes, He brings the full-body Revealed Word of God, and the blood is in the Body  Word. Notice, He is the Lamb of God, and the blood is in the Lamb, and if you eat the Lamb, you got the blood, and if you got the blood, you as good as have the Token!

 

Now notice, Bro. Branham said that the opening of the Seven Seals released the three elements that will take the Bride back to the side of the Bridegroom

 

158 THE.MASTERPIECE -- JEFF.IN -- V-4 N-7 -- 64-0705

How is this Bride going to do this? How is this Wheat going to do this? Malachi 4 said in the last days it would be restored back. What? Restored back like the beginning, take it back. "I will restore, saith the Lord, all the years the palmerworm, and cankerworm, and all these other things has eaten. I will restore again." Malachi 4 said He will restore the hearts of the people, and the faith of the people back to the original fathers again. See? We see this right before us, Church. Where are we at?

Now, closing in a few minutes. I want you to notice real close of something that just happened.

Malachi 4 is to bring back, back to the original. She is smitten from the church--from the church body, smitten with her Master for the same purpose (She's the Word), the same as Joseph was smitten from his brethren, because he was the Word. And Jesus was smitten from His brethren, because He was the Word. The church is smitten--the Bride is smitten from the church, because She is the Word. There's your stages again: one, two, three. See? Just exactly.

The Word, living and in action, the Bible Bride, not some man-made Bride, the Bible Bride, smitten and afflicted of God. No beauty we should desire Her, but yet we did esteem Her, smitten and afflicted of God. That's right. She stands alone. She's smitten from all of the denominations according to Revelation 3. She's smitten out of the Laodicean Church Age that She was raised up in. See?

This church was raised up in the Laodicea Church Age. That's the husk. But if them others went... Can't you Pentecostal man see that? If that other was husk and died, if that other stalk had to die, if the tassel had to die, so must the husk die. The three stages of organization.

49

Page 50: €¦  · Web viewMatt. 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of

And you remember... You said, "Well now, there's a lot of tassels hanging on; there's a lot of this." Yeah! There been Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Lutheran, Church of Christ, all these other little things that fell on to it, leaves and everything else was hung on to it; but the original was the reformations. Now, see?

Stand alone, like the Bridegroom, rejected of man, despised and rejected of the churches. The Bride stands that way. What is it? It's His Masterpiece. See? It's the Word that He can work through and make manifest--rejected.

So the stalk, the tassel, and husk never become Seed (no!), but are all the time becoming more like the Seed. Now, at the harvest time the Seed is back to its original Life, back to the Bible. Malachi 4 said it would be brought that way. Oh, oh, my!

Now, what did He say in Revelation 10, that would take place? Why was the trip to Tucson? To open to the Church... In the days of the messenger of the seventh angel (the seventh angel Message) the whole Word of God would be made manifest. The seal that what all the stalk has left off, and why, and all about it, would be made manifest in this time. Is that what the Word said? Then we see it. Then where are we at? See? Where are we at? There's only one thing. The harvest is here. She's dead ripe. She's ready now for the coming.

 

116 THE.SIGN.OF.THIS.TIME -- NY.NY -- V-18 N-8 -- 63-1113

Now that's the same thing that constitutes the new birth; water, Blood, Spirit. The elements that came from His body is what makes His Body. See? It come from His body, is the material that takes to--to make His Bride. Because, Adam had his bride taken from his body. Christ has His Bride taken from the body. And when Christ died, there was three elements that came from His body; water, Blood, Spirit; justification through believing, water; sanctification through the Blood; the baptism of the Holy Spirit.

 

Notice, what are those three elements that we will be regenerated by? Now, we got to follow the Ministry of the Son of Man, because He is the one that got the revelation, and only in the revelation, is the blood.

 

Now notice, it's like this You take the virgin Mary. She met an angel. And that angel had the Spoken Word. And he gave the Spoken Word to her. And she said, "Let it be to me according to thy word." Notice, she received a birth, not by a sensation, - she never felt nothing. She never felt no quiver, she never felt any sensation - there was nothing to move that egg down. But when she received the Spoken Word, she received the blood cell! (Dare tell me, preacher that it wasn't Germanized.)

Notice, when she said, "Be it unto me according to thy Word;" notice, what the angel said, "Thou shalt have a child, Thou shalt call his name Jesus and he shall save his people from their sins." Why? Because He was the plan of God to be regenerated by. He was the plan of God to the New Birth, In Him was forgiveness of sins Eternal Life resurrection, justification, - that all was wound up in that one Minister!!

 

Now notice here, Mary is like you are! When she met the Spoken Word of God, and said, "Be it unto me according to thy Word."

 

Now, how are we gonna be regenerated? The Bible said, "Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing of that Third Pull!"

 

Rom. 10:17   So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God.

 

Now listen you can't make the Scriptures lie! I could just dove— tail the whole Bible together - preach all night and all day tomorrow

 

The Bible said, "For by grace are we saved, through faith, not of denominational works lest any man should boast and we are saved by the washing of regeneration, by the renewing of the Holy Ghost."

 

Titus 3:4   But after that the kindness and love of God our Saviour toward man appeared,

Titus 3:5   Not by works of righteousness which we have done, but according to his mercy he saved us, by the washing of regeneration, and renewing of the Holy Ghost;

Titus 3:6   Which he shed on us abundantly through Jesus Christ our Saviour;

Now, the opening of the Seals has released pure water - not stagnated denominational water. But we are being washed by pure water, by the Son of Man - White Eagle Message!! And we say be it unto me according to thy Word!

 

Now notice here, when Mary, a type of the Bride, said, "Be it unto me according to thy Word!" Now, how are we gonna be regenerated? Just like she was. How could you have a virgin birth? She said, "Be it unto me according to thy Word " And Mary said, "How will it be born?"

 

The angel said, "The Holy Ghost shall overshadow you."

 

Now notice here, when a person forsakes all; - when they hear the Message, if mother's against it, they'll forsake her! If father's against it, they'll forsake him! If brother, wife, whoever, will not let him go over there he will forsake them! And, if they have to, they'll leave houses, lands, lots, to follow the Son of Man in regeneration.

 

Now, how is our redemption drawing nigh? How are we to be regenerated? How are we to be born again after we see that we're born wrong? This is the way. Faith is the new birth! Right? That is the Birth right there!

 

(Brother Bob points to the diagram of the pyramid, stature of the perfect man. It begins with Faith! The foundation of the perfect man in Christ is Faith!)

                    

 

That does not come by any sensation what so ever!

Jesus said to Nicodemus, "art thou a master in Israel and don't know these things?" Said, "If I told you natural things, how would you understand Heavenly things?" He said, "The wind bloweth (Holy Ghost) where it listeth, (where it wants to) and thou hearest the sound thereof, but you can't tell where it comes from or where it's going. So is every man that's born of the Spirit."

 

In other words, you never felt nothing! But all at once your eyes came open and you were born again! All you have to do is ask the question of the angel, "How are we gonna do it?" She said, "How can I have that Birth?" She said, "I've never known anything like this before I'm a virgin "

 

Luke 1:28   And the angel came in unto her, and said, Hail, thou that art highly favored, the Lord is with thee: blessed art thou among women.

Luke 1:29   And when she saw him, she was troubled at his saying, and cast in her mind what manner of salutation this should be.

Luke 1:30   And the angel said unto her, Fear not, Mary: for thou hast found favor with God.

Luke 1:31   And, behold, thou shalt conceive in thy womb, and bring forth a son, and shalt call his name JESUS.

Luke 1:32   He shall be great, and shall be called the Son of the Highest: and the Lord God shall give unto him the throne of his father David:

Luke 1:33   And he shall reign over the house of Jacob for ever; and of his kingdom there shall be no end.

Luke 1:34   Then said Mary unto the angel, How shall this be, seeing I know not a man?

Luke 1:35   And the angel answered and said unto her, The Holy Ghost shall come upon thee, and the power of the Highest shall overshadow thee: therefore also that holy thing which shall be born of thee shall be called the Son of God.

Luke 1:36   And, behold, thy cousin Elisabeth, she hath also conceived a son in her old age: and this is the sixth month with her, who was called barren.

Luke 1:37   For with God nothing shall be impossible.

Luke 1:38   And Mary said, Behold the handmaid of the Lord; be it unto me according to thy word. And the angel departed from her.

The Holy Ghost shall overshadow you, and then there will be a Holy Thing formed in you!"

 

You know what these preachers has got in them, fighting this Message? They got a dirty thing formed in them. Do you think that Holy Christ in them would deny His own Word that He wrote??

 

Mary, the Bride said, "Oh, I see it now be it unto me according to thy word!"

 

Notice, when you are elected of God to be that little virgin at the endtime; Then, you come in contact with the Angel that's got the right message. You want that with all your heart! You will not let nothing stand in your way! If it's job, mother, father, sister, lands, nothing will stand in your war! You want to go in the Rapture with all your heart! Then you say, "Be it unto me according to thy Word!" Then you just keep coming and listening and then the Birth cometh by hearing; Faith cometh by hearing!

 

And that is the faith that, Jude spoke about. Listen! Hold on now, if this don't make you jump out of your seats, I don't know what will!

 

Jude said, "I would that you would earnestly - (Little Bride) - that you would earnestly contend for that faith once delivered to the saints." Now I ask you, who was it that delivered it to them? The Son of Man delivered it to them! It was once delivered to the saints.

 

Jude 3   Beloved, when I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, it was needful for me to write unto you, and exhort you that ye should earnestly contend for the faith which was once delivered unto the saints.

 

In other words, they never had it but it was delivered to them. And the Bride at the opening of the Seven Seals was still barren There had been nothing to stir her yet. Bro., Branham said, "You can't get it, but He will send it to you!"

The Bride hasn't had a revival yet. See? There has been no revival there!--No manifestation of God to stir the Bride yet, see? We're looking for it. It will take those seven unknown thunders back there to wake her up again. He will send it. He promised it. Now watch. Now, she was dead.

 

460-4 Q.AND.A.ON.THE.SEALS -- JEFF.IN -- 63-0324.1M

Now look here. Let me show you something, see. Did you know there's ten thousands of voices in this room right now? Literally voices of people that's coming through the electronic waves of radio. Why don't you hear them?--they're voices. Is that right? They're waving right through here now. There's people, forms, and bodies moving right through this room now. Is that right? Well, why don't you see them? They're here--actual voices, like my voice. Well, why don't you hear it?

See, it's got to strike something first to reveal it. See? Now do you understand? Just don't interpret nothing. If God wants you to know anything, He will send it to you; see, so just be real real solid now. Hold still. Something has happened. And now just be real... You understand what I mean, don't you?

 

O-oh, my! Somebody is here besides me now! Oh brother, that shivers me! I know that's THUS SAITH THE LORD! Not some man but it is the Word of the Lord!

 

Said, "I would that you would earnestly contend for that faith once delivered to the saints. " Now, that was the first coming of the Son of Man, And the Son of Man delivered that faith to them! How? By preaching the Living Word to them!

 

But you know that Son of Man said to them one day, said, "Who is everybody saying I am? "

 

They said, "Everybody is saying you are a prophet!"

He said, "Well that's good the Word of the Lord's with the prophet." And He said, " Who do you say that I AM?"

 

You know, Peter had been listening to all them things. And all at once the Holy Ghost moved around him and something he had heard, the Holy Ghost (bam!) anointed that, and it dropped down into his heart! He said, "Thou art the Christ!!"

 

Matt. 16:13   When Jesus came into the coasts of Caesarea Philippi, he asked his disciples, saying, Whom do men say that I the Son of man am?

Matt. 16:14   And they said, Some say that thou art John the Baptist: some, Elias; and others, Jeremias, or one of the prophets.

Matt. 16:15   He saith unto them, But whom say ye that I am?

Matt. 16:16   And Simon Peter answered and said, Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God.

Matt. 16:17   And Jesus answered and said unto him, Blessed art thou, Simon Barjona: for flesh and blood hath not revealed it unto thee, but my Father which is in heaven.

Matt. 16:18   And I say also unto thee, That thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.

 

36-2 CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY -- JEFF.IN -- V-3 N-7 -- 63-0728

Peter, when he called, said, "Thou are the Christ, the Son of the Living God."

Now watch, "Blessed art thou, Simon Bar-jona (that which means son of Jona, see?)--blessed art thou, for flesh and blood never revealed this to you (you never learned it from some school), but My Father which is in Heaven has revealed it to you." Notice, what He said to him: "Upon this rock..." that's Peter, the predestinated Seed of God that had received this Light and give him the keys to the Kingdom. "Upon this rock of revelation of Who Jesus Christ is..." He's the full, manifested God. "Upon this rock..." Not of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost, and Him being the second person. "Upon this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of hell will never shake it down--never prevail against it. (See?) I will build My Church upon this rock"--a revelation of Jesus Christ.

Peter had seen Him in flesh, but he didn't know Him by flesh, 'cause Jesus said so. "Flesh and blood didn't reveal it to you. Even My Own Life didn't reveal it to you, but My Father which is in Heaven has revealed the thing to you--that He is the Word of God. And upon this rock I will build My Church." Peter didn't know Him by flesh.

45-2 CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY -- JEFF.IN -- V-3 N-7 -- 63-0728

God is known by simplicity and of revelation of Jesus Christ in the most illiterate person. See? Not your theology. It's a revelation of Jesus Christ. "Upon this rock, I will build My Church"--no other rocks accepted; no other things accepted; no other Roman rock; no other Protestant rock; no other school; no other nothing; but on exactly the revelation of Jesus Christ in a new birth. He is born in there and injects His Own Life, and your life is gone, and the Life of Christ is projecting Itself through you with the pre-eminences to the people that they see the very Life, and works, and signs and wonders that He did is doing the same thing through you. Outside of that, the rest of it's not even called to at all.

71-1 CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY -- JEFF.IN -- V-3 N-7 -- 63-0728

Not say, "My church done..." My church has nothing to do with it. It's an individual, one person. All hell is against this teaching. All hell's against this Truth, but it is the Truth. Jesus never said, "Now Peter, you and John and all the rest of the people, you've got the revelation now; the whole church is saved." It was to him personally. "I say unto thee"--thee, not to them, to thee--"thou art Peter, upon this rock I will build My Church." And the word Peter, means a stone; stone means the confessed one, or the separated one.

 

25-2 THE.RISING.OF THE.SUN -- JEFF.IN - V-3 N-12 - 65-0418.1M

I said, "you see, that you might know that Jesus told Peter and the apostles, after he had the revelation of Who He was and told Him, ` Thou art Christ, the Son of God,' He said, `Blessed art thou (see?), son of Jonas, flesh and blood never revealed this to you, but My Father which is in Heaven has revealed It. Upon this Rock I will build My Church; the gates of hell can't prevail against It. And I give unto thee the keys. Whatever you bind on earth, I will bind it in Heaven; what you loose on earth... `"   That's that Divine revelation of the Word made flesh. If it was flesh in that day by the Son, the Groom, it's of flesh today by the Bride.

 

Now notice, he said the right words. Jesus looked around at everybody and said, "Blessed art thou, son! Flesh and blood never revealed it to you, from some tape recorder! But my Father which is in Heaven! And upon this Rock - upon this Faith — upon this Revelation, I will now build me a Bride!!" Is that right? Is that what He said?    Upon this Rock - a Spiritual Revelation upon the Son of Man's Ministry, and who it was in!

 

57

Page 58: €¦  · Web viewMatt. 19:28 And Jesus said unto them, Verily I say unto you, That ye which have followed me, in the regeneration when the Son of man shall sit in the throne of

In other words, Peter, the Body, said, "Thou art the Christ!"

 

"Now," He said, "upon this Rock upon this Revelation, upon this Faith, I'll now build me a supernatural Apostolic Bride!" Now they got one faith, one Lord, and one holy fire baptism. There's only one God, one Bride, one Church, and one Head to the Body!

 

"Thou art the Christ, the Son of the living God!"

 

"Blessed are you!" Watch that "blessed" now. "Blessed are you, flesh and blood never revealed it to you." In other words, somebody never told you what I said, second handed to you. That's what the people got following Mal. 4:5 today—second-handed religion. They say, "Oh, if you believe everything the prophet said you got it." Never moved Peter! No, they all recognized Him to be a prophet

 

But He said, "What do you have to say about it? What do you have to say about it now?" And the Holy Ghost overshadowed Peter, like it overshadowed Mary. And Peter was the first one that got a revelation. And He said, "Blessed art thou, son. flesh and blood never revealed it to you, but my Father which is in Heaven. He revealed it to you personally. And upon you - your revelation, I'll build me a Church!"

 

You know why God hasn't had a powerful, apostolic Church yet? It's because nobody has recognized who the Christ is! They thought it was Mal. 4:5. But he was only fore running. That's why you ain't seen no Bride. That's why you see no unity. It's because the Faith wasn't delivered to them It was restored because the Word was there. The Word was laying there. But, before It could be made flesh for you to eat It, It had to come in somebody!!

 

Jesus had nothing there to build a Church on, until that man got that revelation. Then He turned around and said, "Oh, now we can build a Church I got one now " Notice, He said, "Blessed are you, Simon Barjona, you never got it from somebody else. You got it straight from the Holy Ghost!" Notice that all that was in Peter's head, that he had heard the Holy Ghost anointed it and it dropped down in his heart and from his heart, he said the right thing, and it moved the Son of God. Now He said, "Blessed are you, Simon Barjona flesh and blood never revealed it to you, and upon this Rock I'll build my Church and the gates of hell can never prevail against it "

Preachers, you might as well just stop all that! You ain't gonna get nowhere in Trinidad They're done founded upon a Rock - nothing can move them The winds Can blow, every wind of doctrine can blow - they that are founded upon a Rock cannot be moved No longer tossed to and fro by every wind of doctrine. Why? Is because you got the Christ on the inside. Greater is He that is within you, than he that's trying to tear down the Message They say, "Oh, we already got it." You'll never move them!

 

He said, "Blessed are you Simon Barjona, I give unto you the Keys." The Heavenly Father is the only one that has the key of David and He said, "I'll give unto you boy, you are a blessed person, that's got this revelation the key to unlock the Token!" He said, "Here it is, Peter."

 

Matt. 16:19   And I will give unto thee the keys of the kingdom of heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt bind on earth shall be bound in heaven: and whatsoever thou shalt loose on earth shall be loosed in heaven.

Matt. 16:20   Then charged he his disciples that they should tell no man that he was Jesus the Christ.

Matt. 16:21   From that time forth began Jesus to show unto his disciples, how that he must go unto Jerusalem, and suffer many things of the elders and chief priests and scribes, and be killed, and be raised again the third day.

 

Peter said, "Thank you, Lord! He just clipped it right on his garment.

Notice when Jesus, the Son of Man spoke that to that preacher, all them other God-called preachers there recognized he had the keys. John never had them, Matthew never had them. Bartholomew never had them, But Peter had them! Now, he's following the Son of Man in regeneration. Now, he had the keys, and what did he do?? He took them all up there to a room, and he got them up there in that room, and began to preach to them.

 

He started preaching to them about the outpouring of the Holy Ghost, Bro., Branham said someone raised up and said, "You know, Peter, I think we already got it."

"It ain't no question how long it will be"--they just got the answer. Wait until. They went up there and said, "All right, boys, maybe in fifteen minutes now the Holy Spirit's going to be on us, and we're going to have our ministry." Fifteen minutes passed--nobody. One day passed--no one. Two, three, four, five, six, seven. Some of them might have said, "Hey, don't you think we already got it?"

"No, no, no, no."

"You better come on out, boys."

The devil said, "You know you've already got what you want. Go on and start your ministry."

"No, no, we ain't got it yet, because He said, 'There will come a... what would take place in the last days. With stammering lips and other tongues will I speak to this people, and this is the rest, that I said,'" see. (Isaiah 28:19) He said, this is it. you'll get it when--you'll know when it comes. "We will know when it comes. We will know it--promised of the Father." They waited nine days, and then on the tenth day--now you're there; they had patience to wait.

 

271-5 THE.THIRD.SEAL -- JEFF.IN -- 63-0320

Now, if you want a Scripture for this, just start reading Acts 2. What'd they have? They had the promise that had been given them. When all of the promise of the Holy Spirit was poured out on them, and it was scripturally a-vindicated...

Now, see the... What if they had said, "Now wait. He told us to wait up here for our ministry." And after eight days, they said, "Well, I will tell you, boys..." Mark said to Matthew, "I believe we've already got it, fellows. Don't you think so?" See, "We already got it. Why are we waiting on our ministry? We ought to just go on out preaching. He told us to come up here and wait, and this is eight days we have been here."

"Well, let's wait another one."

Nine days come. Then Mark comes around or maybe one of the rest of them, John, said, "I believe we ought not to wait any longer. I believe we've already got it, don't you?"

And I can see Simon--because he had the keys, you know. "Now wait a minute, boys! The Scripture has got something to say about this! He never told us just how many days to wait! He said, `You stay there until... You stay there until Joel's prophecy comes to pass; until Isaiah's prophecy is a-vindicated. For with stammering lips and with other tongues will I speak to this people,' and this is the refreshment! This is the wine that's poured out!"

What is wine in the Bible?--refreshment. This is the refreshment that comes from the presence of the Lord! It's got to be scriptural now. See?

So, you see, wine represents stimulation of revelation, and when the Holy Ghost fell, and they seen the fire of God fall upon them, my, that begin to stimulate them, and the first thing you know, they got so stimulated till the people actually thought they were drunk, but they were stimulated by the revelation!

 

Peter said, "Sit down! Jesus told us to wait until you be endued with power from on High."

 

Peter's revelation, with all of his preaching up there in that room, finally, it was wrote about him and said, ''And they were all in one place, and they were all in one mind, all in one revelation, and all in the same mind, that God was gonna do the thing He said!" There was a unity of faith, they were all in one place, all in one mind, all in one accord, It did not make any difference what anybody said about them, as long as they could see that key! John might have said, "Boy I'm getting tired of waiting, I think I --." Then, all at once, Peter holds up the key!

 

Acts 2:1   And when the day of Pentecost was fully come, they were all with one accord in one place.

 

Acts 2:2   And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty wind, and it filled all the house where they were sitting.

 

Acts 2:3   And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and it sat upon each of them.

 

Acts 2:4   And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and began to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit gave them utterance.

 

Peter, with the keys to unloose the outpouring of the Holy Ghost, stayed right there with them, and got them all in one mind and one accord.

 

Now, let's just drop down to where we're at tonight.

Now, over in Revelation, between the Philadelphia Church Age, which was supposed to be sanctification, and into the Laodicean Church Age, Jesus said, "I set before you an open door." Look here, the door had been shut up to the outpouring of the Holy Ghost, but He said, "I set before you an open door."

 

Now, notice there, the key is to unlock the door. The key is in the hand of the right man, He puts it into the lock and he turns it, and unlocks the outpouring of the Holy Ghost!!

 

How, how did the Holy Ghost come? The Bible said, "All tables are full of vomit. there is no place clean, who can I teach this revelation to?

 

Isa. 28:5   In that day shall the LORD of hosts be for a crown of glory, and for a diadem of beauty, unto the residue of his people,

 

Isa. 28:6   And for a spirit of judgment to him that sitteth in judgment, and for strength to them that turn the battle to the gate.

 

Isa. 28:7   But they also have erred through wine, and through strong drink are out of the way; the priest and the prophet have erred through strong drink, they are swallowed up of wine, they are out of the way through strong drink; they err in vision, they stumble in judgment.

 

Isa. 28:8   For all tables are full of vomit and filthiness, so that there is no place clean.

 

Isa. 28:9   Whom shall he teach knowledge? and whom shall he make to understand doctrine? them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breasts.

Isa. 28:12   To whom he said, This is the rest wherewith ye may cause the weary to rest; and this is the refreshing: yet they would not hear.

 

Isa. 28:13   But the word of the LORD was unto them precept upon precept, precept upon precept; line upon line, line upon line; here a little, and there a little; that they might go, and fall backward, and be broken, and snared, and taken.

 

Isa. 28:14   Wherefore hear the word of the LORD, ye scornful men, that rule this people which is in Jerusalem.

 

Isa. 28:15   Because ye have said, We have made a covenant with death, and with hell are we at agreement; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, it shall not come unto us: for we have made lies our refuge, and under falsehood have we hid ourselves:

 

Isa. 28:16   Therefore thus saith the Lord GOD, Behold, I lay in Zion for a foundation a stone, a tried stone, a precious corner stone, a sure foundation: he that believeth shall not make haste.

 

Isa. 28:17   Judgment also will I lay to the line, and righteousness to the plummet: and the hail shall sweep away the refuge of lies, and the waters shall overflow the hiding place.

 

Isa. 28:18   And your covenant with death shall be disannulled, and your agreement with hell shall not stand; when the overflowing scourge shall pass through, then ye shall be trodden down by it.

 

"To whom can I teach the doctrine of the baptism of the Holy Ghost, and all these things?? Them that are weaned from the milk, and drawn from the breast." He said, "Line must be upon line,

precept upon precept, here a little bit of revelation and over there a little bit of revelation. Line upon line, upon line upon line, and then, all at once, stammering lips and another tongue will I speak to this people."

 

Brother Branham said, "I believe that if we get the target lined up again, and get the gun zeroed in, if it struck the bulls-eye at Pentecost. If we get it lined up again, it will bring another sound from Heaven like a rushing mighty wind!"

I heard a Voice, that Light in the bush, He said, "I made you for--that way for a purpose. Now, you know, that--you can't be satisfied until that rifle, no matter what anyone said, you know it drives the tack, see, at fifty yards." And then He said, "That's the reason I made you thus, because it don't make any difference what anybody says, see. `The days of miracles is past. There's no such a thing as the baptism of the Holy Ghost.'"

Listen. There is. Because I know it's so. Those apostles taken that same Holy Spirit, they saw visions, they--they raised the dead, they healed the sick, they done great miracles and signs and wonders. And if we will just get it zeroed in. You can't say, oh, that day, that church says this way. And my church was the oldest, and this was that. That don't make sense to me. If--if they made it drive the tack, it'll drive it again. If they'd brought forth a world shaking revival with the power and the promises of God, we will do the same thing if we will accept the promise and expect it to happen. But you've got to believe it. You just can't halfway believe it.

And you know what? When I got up from under that tree after He's talked to me and walked out there and never touched that rifle one time. And here sets the boy that we reload together. That rifle has constantly drove them tacks at fifty yards ever since. That's right. Never touched it. See, He was trying to do something to me to show me how to behave myself.

Now, like when I go overseas and my wife writes me a letter--and I set down. She said, "Dear Billy, I'm setting here tonight; the children are in bed. I thought I'd write you a few lines to let you know what we did today and how we're getting along. We trust that God is blessing you."... and all like that. Now, I'm reading off the lines what she's writing. But I'm so in love with my wife, and she's so in love with me, no matter what I'd write, we can read between the lines what we mean.

Well, that's the way the Bible's wrote--between the lines. You know many of my sermons, like of God turning Abraham and Sarah back to young people, you'd have to... you have read between the lines to see out what the Scripture says. You have to know. But it'll never get off the line. See? In between the lines will just bring the lines together and make it one big picture.

Now, it's got to be a love affair with God before you can ever get it, cause the Holy Spirit wrote the Bible; and the Bible said that it is of no private interpretation, but it's inspired.

 

And, I believe God's got a man on earth today, with a revelation that's straight as an arrow! That is what I believe, and I go on record tonight to defy the world! I defy every preacher in the world! There has never been another sound from Heaven like a rushing mighty wind and there has never. been another repeat of Pentecost. But God has given a revelation now, so perfect it is line upon line precept upon precept! That Great White Eagle has the key to the open door, and just as the Son of Man had a need to go by Samaria in the first day in the last day, He had a need to go by Trinidad!!!

 

Just as the Son of Man had need to go by Samaria, to get that little predestinated Bride there, to let her know about the Gift of God and WHO it was, speaking to her. She was elected to Eternal Life. And God knowing that He has some Rainbow Trout down in Trinidad the Son of Man had need to come by Trinidad, to show you that there is a man that has the key of Life!

 

And then, them little Rainbow Trout there, all confused and bewildered, heard the Voice of the Son of Man and they begin to eat His flesh and drink His blood - and the Holy Ghost, in the congregation, moving over the minds of the people, as they hear and the Holy Ghost is overshadowing the Rainbow Trout. And It is creating a holy thing inside them! And inside that Seed, Spoken Word (the Revealed Word of God), is the blood cell. And that is the blood cell of the Father!

And when the Holy Ghost overshadows you and you become pregnated by the Revealed Word of God, from the Son of Man you are being created in the likeness of Christ!

 

Paul said, "I travail in birth until Christ be formed in you and we're gonna have a perfect Bride, a perfect Church, and we've got a perfect revelation, and the Holy Ghost is here in Trinidad tonight! The Angel of the Lord is here in Trinidad - the very One that reveals the revelation is right here tonight!!

 

Somebody might say, "I was over there but they make too much noise!" I say unto that person, "If these people wouldn't scream at what they are hearing, God would make the stones cry out!!"

 

We have been in gross darkness - the devil has put his bluff out and a lot of darkness around. us, but there is a man here that can turn on the Light! And. those little predestinated Rainbow Trout in Trinidad, that once sat in gross darkness, there has risen a Great Light!! Not a light of some denominational creed or dogma, but this is the Light shining forth from the EYE, and it is the Light of Life!!

 

Sure there's a lot of noise did you ever see a Great Eagle fly down on her nest of eagles? Why, it's nothing but dust and feathers When they see that Great Eagle swoop down, with that fresh killed piece of meat in its mouth ---(not clear the people shout and worship for several minutes.)

 

You know, when the apostles saw the Son of Man ascend up into Heaven they gazed and looked at Him as He went up into Heaven. All at once two angels stood by, and they said, "Brethren why are you gazing up into Heaven? This same Jesus that you saw go up into Heaven —this same Son of Man that you saw going up into Heaven, shall so come in like manner!!"

 

Acts 1:9   And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.

Acts 1:10   And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;

Acts 1:11   Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.

 

And they asked Him one time, "Where Lord? Where will You come back again? Where will You be?"

 

And He said, They will desire to see one of the days of the Son. of Man and will not see it. They will desire to see Mal. 4:5 come back, but they will not see it. But "He said, "As lightning shineth out of the East!!" In the country that John came from - "As lightning cometh out of the East, and shineth on to the West even so shall the coming of the Son of Man be. And wheresoever that Son of Man's Message — carcass is, there will be the Great White Eagle, (listen now!) and around Him will be the little eagles that will be eating!!"

 

And, if anybody wonders what is all that noise about,-- (listen! listen!) they see that EYE; they see that White Eagle. When they see It, then they eat of the Revealed Word! They are not setting on telephone poles! You'll never move them eagles with Mal, 4:5 word. That won't cause an eagle to get stirred up. You can't throw that dead rabbit out before that eagle. That thing is dead! That was the evening star. Listen! But the evening star goes down in the West. It sets in the West. But the Morning Star - that is the same star as the evening star. And the Morning Star Messenger hails the dawning of a New Day!

 

The prophet said, "Wait there and rest until the Day Star arises in your hearts."

 

2Pet. 1:16   For we have not followed cunningly devised fables, when we made known unto you the power and coming of our Lord Jesus Christ, but were eyewitnesses of his majesty.

2Pet. 1:17   For he received from God the Father honour and glory, when there came such a voice to him from the excellent glory, This is my beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.

2Pet. 1:18   And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount.

2Pet. 1:19   We have also a more sure word of prophecy; whereunto ye do well that ye take heed, as unto a light that shineth in a dark place, until the day dawn, and the day star arise in your hearts:

2Pet. 1:20   Knowing this first, that no prophecy of the scripture is of any private interpretation.

2Pet. 1:21   For the prophecy came not in old time by the will of man: but holy men of God spake as they were moved by the Holy Ghost.

2Pet. 2:1   But there were false prophets also among the people, even as there shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable heresies, even denying the Lord that bought them, and bring upon themselves swift destruction.

 

And the Great White Eagle, the Son of Man, The Christ, is whipping them into the full—bodied Revealed Word and He rips out that revelation and every eagle grabs hold of that ——(not clear)——!

 

When the first coming of the Son of Man rode into Jerusalem with His Message they laid down palm branches and began to cry and make a lot of noise, saying "Hosanna! Hosanna Hosanna! Blessed is He that cometh in the Name of the Lord!!" And the Son of Man said, "You'll not say that again until you see Me coming the second time in --- (not clear because the people shout and scream so loudly).

 

Matt. 21:4   All this was done, that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying,

Matt. 21:5   Tell ye the daughter of Sion, Behold, thy King cometh unto thee, meek, and sitting upon an ass, and a colt the foal of an ass.

Matt. 21:6   And the disciples went, and did as Jesus commanded them,

Matt. 21:7   And brought the ass, and the colt, and put on them their clothes, and they set him thereon.

Matt. 21:8   And a very great multitude spread their garments in the way; others cut down branches from the trees, and strewed them in the way.

cried, saying, Hosanna to the son of David: Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord; Hosanna in the highest.

He only rode a white donkey in that first coming of the Son of Man. The reason there's so much hollering and screaming today, they know He is not riding a white donkey, but He's riding on a White Horse!! And, brother, what He's riding on is the power! And, if He caused that much disturbance with that first Message that He brought, what do you think it will be when this White Horse comes? And He had a Name on His side which was called the Word of God!! And He opened His mouth and a sharp Sword --!

 

Rev. 19:11   And I saw heaven opened, and behold a white horse; and he that sat upon him was called Faithful and True, and in righteousness he doth judge and make war.

Rev. 19:12   His eyes were as a flame of fire, and on his head were many crowns; and he had a name written, that no man knew, but he himself.

Rev. 19:13   And he was clothed with a vesture dipped in blood: and his name is called The Word of God.

Rev. 19:14   And the armies which were in heaven followed him upon white horses, clothed in fine linen, white and clean.

Rev. 19:15   And out of his mouth goeth a sharp sword, that with it he should smite the nations: and he shall rule them with a rod of iron: and he treadeth the winepress of the fierceness and wrath of Almighty God.

Rev. 19:16   And he hath on his vesture and on his thigh a name written, KING OF KINGS, AND LORD OF LORDS.

 

Under the First Seal, the white horse rider, the antichrist, Bro. Branham said he rode a red horse and killed with the sword. But we also find out he gets killed with the sword! With the Sword that proceedeth out of the mouth of the Christ! He said, "You wait until them eagles that hears them mysteries of them Thunders - them people that them Thunders are revealed to." He said, "They will call for a billion tons of fleas and get them." He said, ":They will slay the devil and put him in his place!"

 

304-1 THE.FOURTH.SEAL -- JEFF.IN -- 63-0321

Now, we had him coming last night with his great sword to kill. We find out that he gets killed with the sword, too--the sword of the Word. God's Word--sharp, two-edged sword, slays him, puts him right down; (wait 'til them seven thunders utter their voices to that group who really can

take the Word of God and hand it there!) it'll slice and cut. They can close the heavens; they can shut this or do that, whatever they want to.

He will be slayed by the Word that proceeds through His mouth--it's sharper than a two-edged sword. They could call for a hundred billion tons of flies if they wanted to. Amen! Whatever they say is going to happen because it's the Word of God coming from the mouth of God. Amen.

God always... It's His Word, but He always uses man to work it. God could call for them flies down in Egypt, but He said, "Moses, that's your job. I will just tell you what to do, and you go do it." He fully done that. See? He could have chosen the sun to call them; He could have caused the moon to call it or the wind to call it, but He said, "Moses..." He chose His man. All right.

 

I am persuaded of that, brother and sister! I am persuaded that Jesus Christ, The Son of Man is now sounding His Message!! I believe Gideon is gathering his three hundred!

 

One preacher in the United States has said, "What we need is a showdown!" And a showdown they are going to get! And this is the Mount Transfiguration Showdown!

 

And that is why the eagles has got to cry out. they got to be stimulated, because they are predestinated!! And they were all in one mind and in one accord. Huh? How do you know it won't be tonight when suddenly, there will come a sound from Heaven??

 

You know, the great prophet Elijah was having a showdown in his day. And when he had the showdown and called fire down out of Heaven, he told his servant he said, "Go out there toward that mountain, and look toward the West, and see if you don't see a cloud rising." Western hemisphere, you know! You go out there and look.

 

And he went out there and looked the first time and said, "I don't see nothing."

 

And the prophet kept praying. Said, "Go out there again and look."

 

(Bro. Bob tells how Elijah sent his servant out seven times.)

1Kgs. 18:38   Then the fire of the LORD fell, and consumed the burnt sacrifice, and the wood, and the stones, and the dust, and licked up the water that was in the trench.

1Kgs. 18:39   And when all the people saw it, they fell on their faces: and they said, The LORD, he is the God; the LORD, he is the God.

1Kgs. 18:40   And Elijah said unto them, Take the prophets of Baal; let not one of them escape. And they took them: and Elijah brought them down to the brook Kishon, and slew them there.

1Kgs. 18:41   And Elijah said unto Ahab, Get thee up, eat and drink; for there is a sound of abundance of rain.

1Kgs. 18:42   So Ahab went up to eat and to drink. And Elijah went up to the top of Carmel; and he cast himself down upon the earth, and put his face between his knees,

1Kgs. 18:43   And said to his servant, Go up now, look toward the sea. And he went up, and looked, and said, There is nothing. And he said, Go again seven times.

1Kgs. 18:44   And it came to pass at the seventh time, that he said, Behold, there ariseth a little cloud out of the sea, like a man's hand. And he said, Go up, say unto Ahab, Prepare thy chariot, and get thee down, that the rain stop thee not.

1Kgs. 18:45   And it came to pass in the mean while, that the heaven was black with clouds and wind, and there was a great rain. And Ahab rode, and went to Jezreel.

1Kgs. 18:46   And the hand of the LORD was on Elijah; and he girded up his loins, and ran before Ahab to the entrance of Jezreel.

 

And when he went out the seventh time he came running back, said, "Glory to God, I see a cloud out there!"

 

God has got an EYE here that knows that there is a cloud rising quickly! Because they know the Word is now restored, and we hear the sound of an abundance of rain!

 

There is a cloud arising; all right  but it is not a thunderhead, it is a glory cloud!

And that prophet of God jumped up and told Ahab, "Get you down quick! Get you down quick, because this thing is gonna happen!" Said, "I hear the sound of abundance of rain." And that Quickening Power from seeing that rain cloud got on that prophet. Ahab had the best, fastest horses hooked up to his chariots, but that old prophet outran them all, all the way back to Jezreel!

 

Brother, if that would do that for an old man what do you think this revelation will do for you? ! How would you like to get so stimulated tonight, that you would get so excited, all at once you'd start running and run all the way to South     (not clear) !

 

I can see old Ahab now, whipping them horses. But old Elijah just thought of that revival, boy, and he outran them all! You say, "God can't do that today." Brother, how do I know He can't do it today? We don't know what might happen If that caused an old man to outrun Ahab and his best horses, what ought this revelation do to us? !

 

I will tell you what it is doing. We are running off and leaving these dead vultures! The EYE of God has opened up a way that the vultures eye has never seen! And it's the way of Truth and we love it!!

 

They will say once again, "Blessed is He that cometh with THUS SAITH THE LORD! And now it is "Blessed is He that cometh with THUS SAITH THE LORD, and blessed is he that heareth the Word of the Lord!"

 

Blessed are your eyes because they see ! And they see because the Holy Ghost has over shadowed you and you have been born again!  Because faith cometh by hearing, and God, the Holy Ghost has opened up your ear to hear!

 

And the Son of Man says to you tonight, "Blessed are your ears because they hear! And blessed are your eyes because they see!" And Jesus said, "Except a man be born again, he cannot see the Token!" But you can see It coming because you have been begotten by the Word of Truth, and now we are in one mind! And God is a rewarder of them that diligently seek Him

Hebr. 10:37   For yet a little while, and he that shall come will come, and will not tarry.

Hebr. 10:38   Now the just shall live by faith: but if any man draw back, my soul shall have no pleasure in him.

Hebr. 10:39   But we are not of them who draw back unto perdition; but of them that believe to the saving of the soul.

Hebr. 11:1   Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

 

And we are compassed about by a great cloud of witnesses, of all those that died in Seven Church Ages! And they are praising God tonight because we are coming into that Perfect Day when all that are in the grave shall hear the Voice of the Son of Man and shall live!!

 

Hebr. 11:39   And these all, having obtained a good report through faith, received not the promise:

Hebr. 11:40   God having provided some better thing for us, that they without us should not be made perfect.

Hebr. 12:1   Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us,

 

.And now we are waiting for an out pouring of the Holy Ghost that's so great that it will suck the dead from the graves!! Because it's the Headstone! It's the Capstone! It is the Seal of God! It is the resurrection and the Life!!

And there are some setting here tonight, that will not go to the grave!! And you who are the elected, Rainbow Trout, by hearing of faith (revelation) from the Son of Man, The full—bodied Revealed Word Carcass, have come into a NEVER DIE DOCTRINE!!!!

 

And the Son of Man Jesus Christ, said, "He that heareth my Words shall never die!" But those that heard Him in that day, died. But He was speaking about His second coming! And those that are able to eat His flesh and drink His blood and receive Eternal Life, they will not die and go to the grave but they will be changed in a moment

 

Before the Bride could come into a "NEVER DIE DOCTRINE", the Son of Man had to come again the second time.! He is bringing the Words of Eternal Life! He's bringing a perfect revelation, and He is calling a perfect Bride to marry a perfect Bridegroom! It will be nothing but perfection. And we'll have such victory over the devil, that we'll take away the last power that the devil has, - that is death!

 

And this FAITH is now being given by the Son of Man, to the elected Rainbow Trout! And this is our victory that overcometh the devil and the world, even our Revelation! Our revelation will see to it that we will not die; we will never have a funeral preached over us!!

 

And ye shall never die!!

 

John 11:25   Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: he that believeth in me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

John 11:26   And whosoever liveth and believeth in me shall never die. Believest thou this?
