Day Of The Lord – Master Husband #04

Let’s pray.

Heavenly Father, we’re very grateful again to know we have this privilege coming unhindered to the place that You provided for us, and hopefully it’s sanctified entirely unto You, Lord, to the power of the Word of Yourself, and we do appreciate that.

Appreciate the fact that the Word is coming more and more in manifestation in human flesh which will be glorified will soon be here, Lord, that great day when all sorrows and sin are banished and everything will have come to that complete place of perfection; which we have longed for.

And we know it’s ours today through the grace that was extended to us a long time ago and through the fact that You have proven that this is that hour to receive It. We appreciate that, Lord.

We just pray you’ll help us now in the mediation of Your Word, may we be able to cover those things with the understanding the people involved, and get on, Lord, with further subjects that You have for us in Jesus’ Name we pray. Amen.

You may be seated.

[Brother Vayle dedicates a baby]

In the mean time I have something to confess to you which you know I’m always confessing things that are a to be confessed. And one thing is I’ve got 10 pages of notes and I don’t know where I left off at.

I thought what I had covered I hadn’t covered and so I’m still with my 10 pages of notes and I’ve had so many interesting highways and byways and to get into that I’ve not got out of the woods, so to speak but don’t think I’m not in the trees of the forest and visa versa.

I certainly am it’s just that umm… where are we? I don’t know so I’m going to have to start at the beginning as usual.

And a so sorted of recap because, I got to tell you another little confession, this… The Bible says the priest confessed the sins of the people themselves between the Author and the porch.

Now look, I can’t go anywhere without my notes so its ten to one you not getting more than ten percent anyway.

So I’m sorry for yeah, I didn’t have my notes you know, yeah, well if we didn’t have a Bible what would you do? So if I don’t have my notes what would I do? I got to make notes on the Bible.

So anyway, we’re looking over here in the Book of Revelation on the ‘Day of the Lord’ the Day of the Master, the Day of the Husband, and because it’s all one and the same thing.

And we got to reading over here in Revelation 1. Might as well sit down and hopefully I won’t keep you to long maybe I could just sorta read to you a lot of notes here, you’ll catch it as we go along.

So you want to get your butterfly nets up real good now, and a listen all right the 10 th verse:

Now, you notice in there that in verse 10, “I was in the Spirit on the Lord’s day, and heard behind me a great voice, as of a trumpet.”

Now, you can see here that we brought out that in the marginal notation, “I was in the Spirit, I became to be in the Spirit,” is what he said.

And when he came to be in the Spirit he looked down through two thousand years to the point where we are at today.

And, this then is the Spirit of the hour that we are to be in. Which is the Spirit for this age it’s the Spirit of the revelation of the knowledge of Him.

Now, the first verse says, “The Revelation of Jesus Christ, which God gave unto him.”

Then It tells us very basically, very tersely here, that God actually gave a revelation to Jesus Christ concerning Jesus Christ Himself. Now, this revelation is passed on to us through the written Word, and It’s the same thing that we found over here in Ephesians, the 1st chapter.

And notice exactly those words to the Ephesian Church, the one that was right in the sight of God with perfect knowledge, revelation and they were walking with the Lord.

And Paul said here:

The knowledge of whom? Now, you see, it’s the same knowledge that’s here at the end-time, this is to take place two thousand years after Paul said it, this takes place about two thousand years, within that scope, of when John said it. It’s the One and the same Spirit.

So, you’re in the Spirit of the end-time of the revelation which God is giving concerning this Day of the Lord. What is obtaining, who is paramount, what is going on in heavens and in earth, and in the Bride.

All right:

Now, you notice that there are certain portion of Scripture in Hebrews that Paul brings out that God spake concerning Jesus. “This day have I begotten thee.”

And again, “Thou shalt be to Me a son, and I’ll be to you a Father.” And again It mentions that He’s the first begotten from amongst the dead. And “Thou art forever a priest after the order of Melchisedec.”

You see, you can’t deny that there are certain things that God said concerning His Son who would be manifested in human flesh, and then brought into glory as our High Priest who would later become Kings of the earth and making us with Him a kingdom of priests.

So, this is the hour of a spiritual revelation that has been set forth in the Word, but It has not revealed and is being revealed at this hour.

Now, you notice that John got into the spirit, see? of this day.

Now, I realize that when you are talking in this order concerning that John became in the Spirit to this day, you could sit back and say, “Well, merely God put him in the Spirit and He was able to look down the corridors of time and He spotted this particular area.”

Now, I don’t believe that. Now, that’s true, but I don’t believe it.

Because, I’ll tell you why: The Book of Ephesians which has the same portion of Scripture in a minuscule form says over here in, Ephesians 4 the 7th chapter: Nah, I’m not going to get through what I’m supposed to get through, so relax.

No use… I’m preaching off the top of my head and of the cuffs of my, I’ve said it. Its kind of embarrassing to me, that’s all right you don’t mind, you use to me and I got you so brain washed you love me and that’s just like my wife that takes care of me so.

I can’t get away with anything it to bad but it’s the truth. All right, look let’s get the picture here so that, I want you to be relaxed and understand where we going.

Now, the 7th verse, now just a minute now, let’s go to 4:

Now remember, he’s talking about God through the whole thing. And remember, Jesus enters into the picture after God, because he has a beginning.

You follow? See, we’re not Jesus-Only. We got to keep everything right here.

Now:

All right, It tells you that categorically that the One that went up, was the One that went down into hell, right? went down there liberated the people, identified Himself to upper Sheol and lower Sheol, brought them out. See? Now He took them up.

All right:

Well, It tells you the One that went up came back. Now how did He come back? As the Holy Spirit.

Brother Branham said, “God raised the body as a memorial, and He’s no longer in the form of human flesh. We don’t know Him after the flesh, we know Him after the Spirit.”

Paul said, “Now henceforth know we no man after the flesh, yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, now henceforth we know him no more.”

So, you’ve got to know Him according the Spirit of God which is in a measure in every age according to the Word.

Now, I’m leading you to something, so just keep hanging in there.

Now:

Well, there was something that He couldn’t do here when he was in the form of a human being that He’s got to do now that He’s in the form of the Holy Spirit, in the Pillar of Fire, also in the form of the miniscule baptism with the Holy Ghost, coming to the time when He’ll reincarnate Himself and take over again in another measure.

Now, I hope you’re listening carefully and catch what I’m saying. Just you keep those thoughts in mind and I’ll help you out.

Now:

Now, he tells you that’s the same thing right in there that we’re going to in Ephesians 1:15-23, that Spirit coming into the Church. See? Now watch: it’s all a spiritual function.

Ephesians 4:

Now, It tells you there’s coming a time when there’s going to be a Word perfect Bride on earth, period! And that absolutely is not going to be simply a resurrected group, it’s going to include a group previous to that resurrection. Because, she’s going to be one with that Word.

Now, it can’t be otherwise. Now:

Now, It tells you right here, that through Seven Church Ages what came down from the Head Who is the Word, see? has come down in a measure in every Age, and that Church is becoming. The Church is in the process of becoming. See?

Now, enter the becoming, it comes right to the place where there can be Christ Himself the Holy Spirit everything giving way to Him personally, the Holy Spirit.

Then the Bride formed up to the very peak of a human instrument, or body, so there’s just room for the Head which is one man, which is God Himself incarnated.

Now, you see, John was becoming. He stands representing the Church that the Church has been becoming to this Age. In other words, look, every Age has a distinct spirit.

The Seven Spirits before the Throne. The seven eyes. The seven burning lamps. It’s all the same thing. See? And each Age the Church with that Spirit is the duplication, or the body, or the bulwark, the army of the Lord. Now, it doesn’t look too good in spots, but that’s alright. See?

Now, the church fell on the ground in the Roman Catholic era of the dark ages. And she started to come out under Luther. And if you check your Church Ages you’ll find that every Age had a spirit.

And it was under Luther the spirit of justification. Oh my, it set him on fire. It set him on fire. Now, I know people misunderstand Brother Branham’s statement on intellectuals cannot apprehend this Word because it’s a revelation.

Well then you’ve got to get rid of Paul and throw your Bible in a gutter and spit on it, because he was an intellectual. But, He let His intellectual’s go.

Now, the people who quote Brother Branham don’t understand Brother Branham said, “Let your intellectual’s go.” He said, “I don’t put a premium on ignorance, but it seems a lot of people do.”

Now, if I’m talking to idiots this morning you’re excused. The babies are excused, because I refuse to lower myself to be a gibbering idiot. I can’t talk to the insane and idiots, I’m talking to intelligent people am I not?

All right, then Luther was one of the smartest men who ever lived. Brilliant, and so was Wesley. Pentecost produced the do-do’s. You know why? They went for emotion, and they bypassed the Word of God entirely.

The Pentecostal movement is based upon a man named Charles Parham, who butted his nose in and said to a couple of young men, “I want you to find out what the evidence of the baptism with the Holy Ghost is.”

And they took the historical Book which is Acts, not the doctrinal books, and they came up with the historical way the Holy Ghost fell, and they said, “You got to speak with tongues.”

You don’t got to speak with tongues. I wish everybody did. I’m like Paul, I wish everyone of us did. But, that’s no evidence of the Holy Ghost, that’s a gift.

All right listen, under Luther there was a spirit of justification. And when they found out that you were not saved through a pope and a hierarchy, and you were not justified by works, or by grace, it blew the lid off.

They went insane as it were almost, they were so deliriously happy they started coming out of the grave. Now they went to seed. Wesley came by and that was a spirit. And Pentecost came by and that was a spirit. That was part of the move of ‘the seven’.

But listen, justification gives way to sanctification. Sanctification gives way to the baptism of the Holy Ghost, and the baptism of the Holy Ghost gives way to the Holy Ghost Himself.

Now, we are under the Spirit of the Eagle, which is revelation. Which is the hour of deliverance, which is the hour of the Master, which is the hour of the Day of the Lord, which is the Day of the Husband. See?

Which is the Day of the Head wherein all pre-eminence lies, because we’re aiming at pre-eminence.

Now, what’s the most valued part of you? “Oh,” you say, “I think my eyes.” Come on, don’t be silly, it’s your head. It’s your brain. What if you had the smartest and nicest looking man in all the world, and he’s a dithering idiot?

Oh, what is it? You lose your mind you’ve lost everything. What if you had a fellow that could pole-vault twenty feet and he’s an idiot, and you turned him loose? That’s just about the time you’d crawl under the bar.

You can’t win with idiots. You can’t win with the mental incompetent. You can’t win with the sick. Neither can you have a thing to do with this age, unless your mind is renewed.

And God is not collecting idiots, or the infirm of mind, He is not invading the institution where the insane are, and trying to teach them doctrine. He can’t even teach babies doctrine, and babies are sponges.

How would you like to live in Europe, which would be nice if we all did? Like someplace like Switzerland and our kids learning automatically English, French, German, Italian, Romance, five languages. Little sponges. And you and I got a job saying, “Parlez-vous francais?”

And we say it wrong. I had three years of French, phooey! Little sponges. Now, except you become as little children, as a sponge who doesn’t have any learning, you’re never going to see the kingdom.

Now, we are in an hour of the Spirit of His Day. And people say, when I say, “He is here.”

They say, “So what! What are you trying to tell me?” You’re not in the spirit. I’ll tell you what, you’re back in Pentecost, because that’s the only place you can be.

“Oh,” you say, “Brother Vayle, I’m a Methodist,” or Baptist. Come on, they went out of existence years ago. They’ve been dead for a hundred years. Right.

All you see today anywhere is a bunch of foolish virgins trying to get the oil, and they can’t get it. They’re into the spirit of gifts which is Pentecostal.

This is the hour of the Spirit of God revealing His Presence, revealing Himself as the Capstone come down and taking authority over the Church in order to raise the dead. Where He comes down and gives the revelation of Himself.

Now listen, that’s what this ‘Day’ is all about. The references of the Lamb are almost universal, if not entirely universal in the Book of Revelation concerning the fact He is taking His great power to reign. See?

You’re looking at a ‘fait accompli’. The thing done. The Book of Redemption opened, Him coming to claim His Own.

Now, what does a Bible say? It says, “At the end time the spirit of revelation will be in the Church.” It’s a spirit of revelation. Now, the point is, Brother Branham categorically said, and everybody misses it, because he said, “You go to a ball game, you get in the spirit of it.”

Now… you know, I’ll tell you something: it’s hard for me to understand certain things, because I’m a certain way. Now, maybe somebody here can understand. I think maybe my wife can, because she nursed alcoholics.

One of the strangest sights in all my life I was picked up hitch-hiking in Canada many years ago, and I got inadvertently picked up by a couple of really nice guys that were alcoholics.

Now listen, if you’re a worldly man, come on, only worldly man sitting here, either you’re very, very worldly, and you’re very, very virile, what do you talk about? Women. These guys didn’t have a bit of time for women.

They were talking going to their hotel room and breaking a bottle and drinking. And you could just feel the atmosphere, the spirit, [makes a tasting sound] slurp, slurp, slurp.

And I thought, merciful God, how can a person love a bottle, more than a woman anyway? Look, if I’m going to get into sin, I’m going get into what is naturally inherit in me. I’ve got no booze inherit in me.

And they talked about that bottle in a way that was human. Then another alcoholic, he tried to break out, but he evidently he couldn’t trust God like some of our good brothers can trust God around the world.

He could never break out of it. And he just longed to get in there. Spirit. Some people… same with cigarettes.

All right, cocktail parties, that go to your booze parties. That go to your alcoholic. Anybody see “The Lost Weekend’ with Ray Milland, ‘The Lost Weekend’? Get it sometime and see it. Get it sometime. It won’t hurt you. It’ll show you what booze does. They hide it in the chandelier.

Well listen, if you get a booze artist in your home and he can’t get any money to get booze on, and he gets invited in your home, you watch out, he’ll go right to your shaving cabinet and drink your bay rum.

He’ll slug down shoe polish. Yep, as long as it’s got some alcoholic content, or some kind of a thing to give him a binge. See, there’s a spirit.

Now, I brought this out very flat to let you know the prophet said. Because, many people don’t realize there’s a spirit with this too. He’s here! “So what, He’s always been here.” Oh no, not like He’s here now.

There’s a spirit in there that’s so strong that I can just sit and suddenly begin thinking, and it seems like my spirit’s way out there, somewhere out there in the prairie. It’s not with me anymore, it’s joining forces out there.

It’s looking for reality beyond the ‘Curtain of Time’. Where does it come from? I never asked for It. It was already here in the Word of God. See?

John was in the Spirit. He got into the Spirit of this hour. See? And he wrote a Book on It. But, what he got into was temporary, because it was only a prophecy. Today It is not a prophecy.

I’ll show you: Brother Branham said, “When God said, ‘Let there be light’, [he said] that was the Word. But the minute that light came it was no longer a Word.”

This was a prophecy, it is no longer prophecy. It is the Day of the Lord we are into. It is this hour we are into. See?

Now, it is not just the hour of the Lamb as though we would look back for Seven Church Ages, although we can, and we do, it is the hour of the Lamb in which His services are fast being terminated as Mediator and Intercessor.

That which brings us in, and keeps us in. And in there we see Him going to the peak of His great and wonderful and majestic ministry.

Now, let’s just get over here and take a look at what’s in the Spirit. Now, John is caught up in the fourth chapter, showing that this spirit that is becoming has come to the place of arrival.

Now watch, John goes right to the end. Now he says: let’s go to chapter 2 first of all of Revelation.

Now, you notice in here the one that is in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks is giving a message pertinent to the hour of age number one concerning them. Age number two is the same. The Spirit is giving It through a messenger.

But, at the end of the Seven Church Age, when there’s no further messages, time has run out. He Himself is being revealed.

So, you see when I showed you in Ephesians, becoming, we are coming up, up, up, up, up, until there’s nothing left, except Him. See? So therefore, He is to be revealed.

Now It says, “God gave this revelation unto Jesus the Christ.” Like, “Thou art My Son, this day have I begotten thee? Thou shalt be to Me a Son, and I should be to thee a Father.”

To which of His angels He says, “Sit thou at my right hand?” And again to the Son He said, “Thou art a priest after the order of Melchisedec.” See?

All things are put under your feet, I’m going to put them under your feet. All right, come on. There’s a revelation given to him right here.

Now he said, “This concerns what’s down the road, and it is down the road.

All right, let’s go to,

No room for anybody, now listen, there’s no room in the manuscript, which is a scroll of the Bible. There’s no room to write anything unless you write over something, or erase something, and then write it in.

And furthermore, you can’t do it, because not only are both sides entirely written upon, but they’re sealed with Seven Seals. Which means, until the Seventh Church Age, the Seventh Seal Itself, and the Seven Thunders coming forth. There is no way the Book gets unsealed.

Now, come on, John went through Four Church Ages. Make Seven Church Ages: One, two, three, four, five six, seven and two chapters. End of the 3rd chapter he gets caught up.

Now, he says here, this manuscript:

Alright, there’s something closed up. Now It says, “Who’s going to open It? Well, he said:

You can’t open the book unless the Seven Seals are opened. And some people today say, “Well, you see Brother Vayle, the Seven Seal hasn’t been taken off the Book, then the Book is closed.”

Now, as I told you, I’m not preaching to, to people that I consider have… well, you know, what I said already. So, let’s put it right where it is. And I make no apology for my punches. I’m sorry, but I don’t.

Now, if the people perish for lack of knowledge of the Most High, they perish for lack of knowledge and that’s true and for correction. You cannot correct a mentally idiot person.

And you better be careful how you try to correct a baby, because you just hurt the poor thing, he doesn’t understand. See? Now, we’re talking about a spiritual revelation that’s given to anybody and everybody that’s Bride.

Now, he said right here, the Seal is going to be ripped off.

Now, you notice it’s the same One that came down, that opened the Book in Isaiah 61. Let’s go back to, Isaiah 61.

Come back next Sunday too, and the Sunday after, Sunday after, Sunday after, cause I’m going to go on a vacation and then I never go on a vacation. The only guy that does is Lloyd and the beat his fingers here when he gets back.

I’m just teasing, I’m glad his gone on a little vacation, I’m… his the greatest song leader in the world in my books. Ah, just teasing. I just figured nobody gets a vacation if I don’t.

A twofold effect at the end-time. Judgment unto Eternal Life, and judgment to destitution and chaos, the Great Tribulation and perhaps to the Lake of Fire. Right.

You know, I’ve been telling you people all the time that Zion is the Bride, Brother Branham said so.

Oh, I don’t worry anymore what he said, I just know what he said, because when you get in the Word here, that’s all you know is the Word anyway.

I don’t disregard Brother Branham you can tell it, because we’re going to take every Wednesday night I don’t know for I don’t know for how long.

Sermon after sermon here, I get too much enjoyment. I’d sooner listen to him, than listen to myself. All right.

All right, now, He took the Book out of the right hand of Him that sat upon the Throne. Now, what’s He going to do? He’s going to loose those Seals.

The One that’s responsible for the Church, gets her in, keeps her in, her surety, the Bridegroom standing for the Bride.

The Husband being a covert and a cover for the Bride. That’s exactly why it was that Ruth threw her skirt over the feet of Boaz.

She said, “You’re standing for me,” she said, “You’re my kinsmen redeemer. The way you goes, the way I go.”

So alright, He came and took the Book. What did He do? Let’s find out.

Now, that was done at that time in vision. Were the Seals actually ripped off at that time? No, they weren’t ripped off at that time. He was in the spirit and he got in the Spirit, and he saw Him standing there, and he said, “What is going on?”

The Seven Church Ages flittered down before him, because God didn’t take Him from A to Z without going to B, C, D, E, F, G, H, I, J, K, L, M and so on. And what’s in between A and Z? The Seven Church Ages, see? to the Gentiles.

All right, so He takes him down now to the end. So he rapidly goes through Seven Church Ages. Zap, zap, zap. And when he comes to the end you come to Him from which all came down in the first place.

Now, what came down from what? Jesus came from God. Oh, yes He did. “In the beginning the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” “I came out of the Father, and I’m going back to the Father, right in the bosom.”

All right then, what’s going to come down? God Himself is going to come on down, because that’s where It all started from. Well, come on, let me see if I’m telling the truth or not.

I don’t know, maybe I’m telling you a lie. I could tell people lies very easy and not even know I’m lying to them. But, I pretty sure I’m not telling you a lie in this one here, because I just said it a while ago.

Notice:

So, we got one God and Father of all, what’s going to come down? God and Father of all. Why? Because, He’s the God of the Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory. All came from Him in the first place.

Then, how is the Son going to be placed at the Head? Through the Father. Well, didn’t the Father give Him a Bride?

Come on, who gave Adam his bride? God did. I’m going to tell you one thing, there’s not going to be any messed up marriage with this One.

Oh, praise the Lord. Our marriage has never been messed up, we’ve got a good marriage because she’s a good kid.

And I keep telling you, the French got a good word for it; to make a good marriage one must have the tremendous infinite capacity to love. That’s my wife.

And the other must have a tremendous infinite capacity to be loved. That’s me. That’s the way the Bride and Groom is. He’s got the infinite capacity to love.

Why, look it, if we really are Bride, you better look at yourself in the mirror sometime in a three way mirror, and a four way mirror and you’ll go into convulsion. But remember, He loves you.

Say, “Could God love a nose like that?” Oh yeah. Could God love feet like that? Oh yeah. Oh yeah, yeah, yeah. No problem. Shooo, man that’s good, eh? That’s very good. Okay, It tells you right there, It comes from Him.

All right, now listen: God giving the revelation. Here’s the revelation, and he said, He looked down there and he saw the Seals opened, and he saw “the redeemed blood-bought of every tongue and people and nation.”

Some people have different tongues. Switzerland, German, French, Italian, and some Romance. Mostly number three. Some English, but not so much. See?

Okay:

When those Seals were ripped off a Shout went up which would take in those that are there, and the prefigure of those who are going there.

Because, believe me when we all get together what a time it’s going to be to glorify the Lamb that died and rose and took the Seals off the Book.

Now, you say, “Just a minute, I kind of believe somewhere in there that I just don’t know that there should be a Book that’s sealed up, and I don’t know if these things got to come out.” Well, I’m glad that you don’t know, it shows you’re ignorant. “Of what?” Revelation.

Now, I’m telling you, so you open your minds and say, “Oh say, that’s fine. That’s fine.” Then there’s got to be something come forth.

“Why does it got to come forth?” It’s got to get you to the Tree of Life. It’s got to get a Bride off this earth that doesn’t die.

See, there’s something in here that has got to be loosed, which though paid for by the Blood has not been loosed. “Aw, what hasn’t been cornered?” Death has not been cornered.

“It’s appointed unto man once to die, then afterward the judgment.” Now hold it, that’s abrogated when death is set aside temporarily, because there’s a Bride that will not die. And she will not be judged, she’ll be taken right in.

Okay, so what you’re looking at here is the Day of the Lord. You’re looking at this hour, and there is a spirit attached to it. Now, if you get right into the spirit of this hour, let’s look at It again.

The Book of Ephesians, the 1st chapter.

[Paraphrased] “You that are full of the Holy Ghost, [said Paul,] you that are sealed unto the day of redemption. You that are the purchased possession under the praise of His glory. You that are going to be gathered with those in heaven and all of earth through all ages; has His great inheritance as the great family of God. You that were sealed in, [he said] I’m praying. I cease not to give thanks for you. And I pray for you all the time. The God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the father of glory, may give unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge of Him.”

Now, where did Jesus get His revelation? From God! Where do you get yours? God! “For no man knows the things of God save the Spirit of God.”

Now then, who is going to bring the revelation? God! Why? Because, He gave it in the first place. “You mean to say, that this is a different revelation from the Book of Revelation?” Hogwash!

You’ll be believing in three gods pretty soon, or half a dozen. You’ll believe in five or six bibles pretty soon, there’s one Bible. Paul was caught up and he saw things that he couldn’t utter.

And John was caught up and he saw the things that he could utter. And then he heard some things that he couldn’t utter. Yeah.

What couldn’t he utter? He couldn’t utter the great mysteries of the end-hour. He couldn’t delineate upon those mysteries that God said were to remain there.

And one of the great mysteries is the ‘Rapture’. Yeah. And if you dare… and I don’t care if I repeat myself, I’m going to repeat myself until you get the understanding, we are in the Day of the Lord, and there’s a Spirit to It. And if you’re not in that Spirit, you’re not in the ball game.

Haw, you go to a ball game, those who are pulling for one team and those another. And pretty soon a fellow with an expensive hat falls down, the first thing he sits on it, what does he care.

He gets mad and just kicks it down out, because he’s fighting for the team. Another sees a guy fighting he throws a beer bottle at him. Oh, they’re in the spirit alright.

You say, “Brother Vayle, are you trying to suggest that when we have trouble at this hour that we might throw a couple of those beer bottles spiritually?” I wasn’t suggesting that. No!

But, I’m going to tell you something in you doesn’t rise up against the perfidy [treachery] of the denial of who and what and where He is, there’s something wrong with your spirit. You’ve flunked out, you’ve flunked your test as far as I’m concerned.

Now, I’m not saying start a fight. No, no, no, but I’m telling you this: Paul stood in defense of the Gospel, and he said, “I’m criticized for the Resurrection.” He said, “Let me preach at you the way It is.”

“Oh,” they said, “now, Paul baby, don’t you know that you’ll cause a ripple in our church, and our people get along just so good. Why don’t you just play that down and move on, and we’ll all be brothers?”

And he said, “What are you talking about?” He said, “I withstood Peter in his face.” He said, “The guy that had the keys to open the church to both Gentile and Jews.”

He said, “I shucked off Barnabas for being carried away to be circumcised,” when he said, “that’s out, nah-phooh, finished, taboo.” Now, he said, “I’m supposed to…?”

Now, look it, come on, you don’t expect like me to simmer down? Under six feet of dirt, yeah. Yeah.

“Why,” he said, “God is going to give this revelation.” Now look, under the lion, they went out as lions with the Word of God, Leo.

When the hour of tribulation set in, the calf came on the scene which is sacrificial; and the church as Brother Branham correctly said, “they wanted to die as martyrs.”

Oh yes, I told you how I stood on that bridge in Bruze, the bridge is over the canal it’s another Venice. It’s not, I supposed it’s beautiful, but I don’t know, it’s alright by me.

It’s a lovely little town. Stood on the bridge where they hacked the martyr’s heads off, and the heads and the blood rolled in the water.

The only picture that didn’t turn out, or they swiped on me. The one picture we wanted. I don’t think the devil wanted me to stand where the martyrs stood. At least have my picture. Stood on Mars Hill, that was fine, Paul was there. But these martyrs, okay.

They were happy to be martyrs as one woman witnessing, she could have saved herself by even leaving the town I suppose, which may she should have done.

But, they brought her in and they said, “Now, just a minute, he said, aren’t you saying so and so?”

She said, “I certainly am.”

“Well, don’t you know if you recant and say so and so, we’ll save your life.”

She said, “Why should I save my life, He gave His life for me.” She said, “He did it, I’ll do it too.”

Man, they burned them at the stake and they stood there. They put them in leather bags and gunny-sacks full of snakes and threw them in the water.

They said, “Hallelujah.” Man, that scares you. They got in the spirit. See?

Then the face of a man came. That was the age when brilliant men were in the pulpits. Sheer brilliance.

And I supposed God looked down and He said, “Luther my son, the devil pulled a little trick on Me here, I really gave you an IQ of 59, but I see you’ve got an IQ of 186.

Now, unless we drop something on your head like several coconuts that’ll jar your brains and your teeth means I can’t do a thing for you.”

I’m going to tell you something: has anybody ever read any of Luther’s sermons? Let me see your hands. Have you ever read them, any of them? Look, there’s a bunch of books around here are mine.

I’m going to tell you, I admire Luther as I admire no man that ever lived when it came to theology under the face of a man. And if you want to read the other history and get my books too, if there not at home, I’ll bring it down, and you read Justin Martyr and I admire him even far above Irenaeus.

Now, don’t think Irenaeus wasn’t pedantic my brother, my sister, he was very, very erudite. And a pedantic person is one who makes an ostentatious display of erudition.

Oh yes, I learned that when I was only twenty years old. I kept in my mind for forty nine solid years. Seven, sevens, say, how about that, eh? Touché. Yeah. Brilliant men.

Who can compare with Joseph Parker? Or a Spurgeon? Yeah. Who can compare to a Strong the theologian? Who can compare to a Finney who was a lawyer, or Schofield who was a lawyer? Who can compare to a Moorhead, and these great men of old?

Under the same time, who could compare to an Evan Roberts, a simple man of the field? Who compares to John Wesley who studied the Greek and his New Testament is a thing of beauty?

And he himself, though brilliant, was a horrible preacher. Yeah, as a theologian he was almost mindless. But, he had a spirit that moved men by the hundreds of thousands, and moved men and kept men with God.

And William Branham came on the scene with the spirit of the Eagle. And he said, “Yes, I don’t have any education past the seventh grade.”

And he very snidely and beautifully said, “But, don’t think I don’t know what’s in them Books.” Hallelujah. William Branham never put a price on ignorance as though it was something.

But, William Branham has to go the way of the prophet, which meant one thing, he had to get rid of his thinking and get the thinking of God.

Now, we are in the Spirit of revelation of this hour. We are in the realm of the prophetic Spirit of the Eagle. Then where is the revelation if we’re going to build on all the old junk? It went to seed from the mind of a man.

Now listen, what Luther had was right. And believe me it was right. What Wesley had was right, and it was right. Don’t believe this stuff the Nazarenes’ teach about their sanctification.

Haw, I read Wesley’s book on it, he doesn’t say what they say, anymore than the Lutheran’s say what Luther said. And anymore than most of us Branhamites say Branham said too. Let’s get right down to nitty-gritty.

I’m sorry, but you might as well… I let the cat out of the bag a long time ago, and it turned into a jungle cat. So that’s it.

I quote you where Brother Branham said, “Lord, don’t let this be a cult.” Then he sadly said, “But it will be.” Oh yeah.

The Spirit of the hour is the Day of the Lord. It is seeing Him coming glorified. It is seeing Him as the Head of the Church. It is seeing Him as the Head of the Bride. It’s seeing Him in this tremendous day that is upon us.

All right, I’m back in Revelation, the 5th chapter, and I read It.

Now, let’s go to,

Now, hold it, let’s go back to the Day of the Lord for you and me, that’s for the world. Now, here’s the day for you and me, verse 7, of chapter 5.

Now listen, I’m going to tell you something: that takes care of us. That takes care of us. We’re done took care of. What’s the next thing?

Let’s find out, let’s go to Malachi 4:1. Now, we just got to put the Scripture together, and nothing’s too hard if you just let It run together.

All right:

Hey, you know something? The Day of the Lord is God in a Pillar of Fire coming down as pertaining us I’m talking about.

As pertaining us, the Day of the Lord, is God coming down in a Pillar of Fire dealing with the prophet, with the Seven Seals opened, the Thunders on earth, the whole thing revealed, He revealed, we see the whole plan and we get glorified, and away we go to the Marriage Supper.

Then wham, comes the tares that are already bundled into the Word Council of Churches for the burning.

Now, why is there more said about the Day of the Lord being wrath and vengeance then there is for the virtue of grace? Because we’ve had two thousand years of virtue and grace. This is just the tail end. This is the wind up.

And the prophet said, “Little Bride,” he said, “you’re exonerated. Why,” he said, “you’re the virtuous spotless Bride of the Lord Jesus Christ.”

You say, “Hey, hey, hey, now hold it.” You look around and say, “Who’s he talking about? Who’s he talking about?”

Ever been someplace where someone was going to do something nice and they looked at you and you thought, no, they can’t be looking at me and pointing and say, “No, I mean you, you the guy that turned around.”

“You mean me?” I like surprises, that is the right kind. Brother Branham said, “The harlot she’d be really surprised to get there, because she knew she’s knew she’s going to the other place.”

But she said, “These people that call themselves Christians and turn down the Word of the Living God,” he said, “they’re going to be surprised because they think they’re going to make it.” But they’re going to be in the other place.

Now remember, the Bible distinctly says that “the prostitutes and the publicans go in ahead of the church member.”

I don’t care what you talk about brother/sister, if you aren’t part of It, you’re never going to make it. “What will we do?”

You can separate yourself all you want, but I’m going to tell you something: I’m never the wheat separated itself yet. I saw the farmer separate it.

I see the fan is in His hand, thoroughly separating chaff from wheat. And I see the chaff screaming that it’s the wheat, but it’s not the wheat. No way near it. Now, this is the Day of the Lord that he saw.

Okay, let’s go back again to the Book of Revelation. We’re back there in chapter 6 weren’t we? That was taken from 5th chapter, now you’re back under the Seals, the Sixth Seal. The great Day of the Lord, and who can stand it?

All right, let’s get over here to,

Now, she’s making herself ready. How can any bride make herself ready? Oh, only with what’s been given her. See? All right:

All right, see, you got wrath and you got joy.

Now, let’s go back to Matthew 25. All right.

Now, before I read anymore, come on, let’s go back here to 1 Corinthians, chapter 15. Okay, It says:

So, he’s telling you that the great change that is coming is just like this: here’s a parable, here’s a picture:

Haw, brother/sister, do you know something? For hundreds of years the Roman Catholic church has not had the Bible.

But, a man of tremendous Pentecostal stature called Mr. Pentecost, David du Plessis, of South Africa was anointed to go to Harvard, to Princeton especially, and through the grace that was allowed him in this age, he took Pentecost to a Protestant and Roman Catholic churches, and he became very close friends, I believe men like Cushing, Spellman, men of repute and world renown, great men in their own way.

And don’t think they aren’t fine men, they are fine men, and I’ve have no doubt that they are fine men. And when du Plessis got finished in their great conclaves and went to Rome and other places, because he was allowed to go, to know many men of the college of cardinals.

This one particular man who was so enthused with du Plessis said, “What can I do as a favor to you? Can I mention you to the holy father?”

Oh, well that would be maybe ten masses and kiss the golden ring, and hot dog, you might even end up with a, you know, a few diamonds and a few things. I don’t know.

And David said, “You tell him for me put the Roman Catholic churches full of Bibles.”

And today through that man’s effort the Roman Catholic’s have any number of Bibles, and they read them any way they want. And the neo-Pentecost have flooded the Roman Catholic church until you watch, their pope’s will all be anointed with the Holy Ghost.

And if this man isn’t, I believe he will be, or the next one succeeding him. Because John XXIII, and the man following him were defiantly anointed with the Holy Ghost, they’re not Spirit filled. Definitely anointed.

So, what I’m trying to show you here there’s all kinds of Bibles, there’s all kinds of word, but it’s finished. There’s no oil in it. There’s no life in it, because the Life is in this revelation of this hour.

How many people have caught the spirit of It? You tell people right today and say, “He’s here,”

“Well,” they say, “that’s Roman Catholic doctrine, Russell [Jehovah Witness founder] said that, I can’t believe it.” A man calls it ‘puke’, and they say preached it twenty nine years.”

He preached puke twenty nine years, I’d smarten up and get out it. Now, I’m not trying to hurt anybody, I’m just telling you, look it, smarten up. You’re not a bunch of babies anymore.

If you’re not ready for the battle, you got no place around here, and I got no place around here. Let’s go right back to Pentecost or someplace. Oh, let’s go back to the bars and get drunk, I never much cared for booze.

What I like most of all is puttering around the garden. But, my puttering is about gone, because I can’t get down, because my back won’t let me putter. It gets me to mutter, but doesn’t let me putter.

All right, five virgins, the word of one set of virgins had oil. It was alive. See? The others, it had leaked out. That’s why the foolish virgin is in denominations.

You say, “What’s with us Brother Vayle?” I’m glad you asked me.

Oh, I’m tickled you’ve asked me, because I have a quote. Oh yes, I can’t tell wherever it was, but I’ll find it for you.

Brother Branham said, “The dove and the crow can sit on the same roost.” Did you hear what I said? That sink in? Didn’t sink in?

Now, it’s too late for me to tell you about it. Start getting some more tapes. Come on, come on, if you can’t figure that one out, come to me privately with a thousand dollar bill and I’ll tell you.

Already joined you… that means I got to perform brain surgery. That’s very cheap a thousand dollars for brain surgery. Of course with a dull axe, that you know… If I didn’t love you, I wouldn’t tease so unbearably.

But look, I’m very, very serious what I’m saying too. See? That’s why I say the way I say it. The dove and the crow can roost on the same branch.

You say, “Brother Vayle, do I have to watch the person next to me? I didn’t say that. I’m not talking about local churches, I’m talking about the whole thing, where men aggrandize themselves.

“You see that amongst us?” What do you think would be amongst us? Come on, wake up! The Bride isn’t put in the peculiar position of insulation until the ‘Rapture’, “when that which is filthy is filthy still, and that which is righteous, is righteous still.”

You got to get out of here, honey. Just, if you happened to be a dove, don’t let that crow nuzzle you and say, “How’s this little tidbit from Pentecost?”

It’ll upset your gall bladder and you got it coming to you. Oh, you don’t have a gall bladder do you, if you’re a dove. Yeah, make you vomit.

Matthew 25:

Okay, behold this ten dollar bill! You say, “I don’t see any ten dollar bill.” You’re right, there isn’t any ten dollar bill. Sure. You’re a nice bunch of people, you catch on real fast.

When did He first Appear? June 11, 1933. When did you really get to know Him?

“Oh,” you say, “hey, that very good, very good, I only began to put it together in a mystery, that hey, something was going on.” Yeah, something was going on.

“And tell me, when did you really see Him?”

“Well, hey, I know, when the Seals were opened. The creeds and dogmas were cut asunder. The Mercy Seat became in full view.” Sure…

Come on, now, you know I don’t want to talk about Lee Vayle, but he’s not such a horrible subject if you get used to it.

I keep telling you I sat in a meeting, another great man sat in a meeting saw this demon possessed man come in and Brother Branham said, “Satan, because you challenged the servant of the most High God, you’re going to fall at my feet.” The man fell at his feet.

And the voice in the man that saw this, he said, the voice said to him, “Hey, that’s the way it’s done in the Bible, you can do that too.” Now, I didn’t see that.

But when I saw the night Brother Branham said, “I challenge you bring me twenty four, or twenty five, [I forget which] your worse cases, I guarantee healing for all. Oh, [he said] come on, [he said] you that got prayer cards, I pray sixty percent get healed.”

I never saw one that didn’t get healed out of hundreds. And the voice in me said, “If you ever listen to anybody, that’s the man you listen to.”

You say, “Brother Vayle, are you trying to suggest crow and dove?” I’m not suggesting anything, you suggested if you said it.

Thanks Bill, appreciate you kid. Brother/sister, the gloves are off.

I’m going to tell you something: I’ve said it, and I’m going to say it again, if I am wrong in what I’m doing, trying to give Him glory, I prayed for years and years in my heart, because I’m not arrogant like people think I am.

I’m hard hitting, but I’m not arrogant person to be best of my knowledge. I know that I can be wrong. I know He can cast me into hell. I’ve been willing to be cast into.

If I could just give Him glory one time in my life, and I suddenly realized I’ve been putting Him forward all these years.

Yes, in my own cruddy way, because I don’t have a life you can look at, I don’t have a formula you know that. I don’t have gracious manners, or anything. But, I do have this Word.

And this Word says, He is here and I will die for It! Because, I believe that same bleeding Word died for me one time.

Now, lamp trimming time, I’m trying to tell you is, there’s something going on. And the man that rose to a great ministry that Brother Branham commended, because he did go to the Word.

But the worldly doubt when it came to a prophet with an invincible infallible Word, and He is here! It died, and he stayed back in Pentecost with his Trinitarianism. Now, let’s get that flat.

All right, trim the lamps. They begin going back to the Word, sharpening the Bibles. The Roman Catholic’s got it.

Certainly, without a doubt the Greek Orthodox will have it. Everybody’s got it, the best seller. It’s been the best seller for ages and will be.

And people quote it, but no revelation. Aw, they’ll tell you all about the Blood. They’ll tell you all about gifts. They’ll tell you about the baptism. But, when the baptism runs out, where are you? Yeah.

Oh listen, I could, my, my, my, oh, I’d like to just hold you here. There’s so many things I want to tell you.

All right listen, I’m not trying to be smart now and say, “Old Vayle knows so much, he wants to, you know, be act like a big guy going to pour it.”

I want to take you to 1 John, chapter 3. I haven’t got time. I want to show you what’s going on, where this hogwash love is being perpetrated until we must love the homos and bring him into church. Get it out of the church, unless they repent!

Anybody that’s a homosexual, you want help, I’ll try to help you. You’re not here of course, because none of you are. I’ve helped maybe one before, I’ll try to help another one. But, don’t bring me your filth around the tabernacles of God.

See, lamp trimming time. They go to the Word. Never was a time when there wasn’t more Word. And everybody confused like in the Rapture.

“Do the saints go before the tribulation? Is there a secret appearing, or is there an appearing? Is there really a coming?” [Oh yes, there’s a coming.] “Is it before the tribulation? Is it after? Is it before the Millennium, or is it after the end of the Millennium? What is going on anyway? We would like to know.”

And the prophet said, “All the Bride through the ages has been waiting for this.”

The people said, “Hey, glory to God He’s here.”

And they said, “Uh, uh”

For the Lord Himself descends a Shout… and Brother Branham said, absolutely that was his Message. Oh, William Branham didn’t come down, he was down. Where’s the river? Up there, or down here?

He said, “I was not the One that Appeared down the river, I was only down the river when He Appeared.” So, He Appeared down the river. Now if that picture is really real, look it there!

Where was Brother Branham? “Oh, Brother Branham, I didn’t know you were up there at the Throne.” Well, hallelujah son. I didn’t know there’s cameras up there either. Who took your picture up there son?

As down here! William Branham ain’t up there yet. He’s in Paradise. These resurrected ones only are only from the First Resurrection, the first half, the Old Testament ones. They alone are in the Presence of God my brother. Brother Branham came back and he told us that.

He said, “The One standing up there [when he was caught in a vision,] said, no [he said] way can you see Him, but He will come to you.”

All right, He’s down. Shower of revelation, the hour of putting your minds aside. Your theology aside, everything aside. I’ve been learning to do it.

I kid you not, I’m not afraid to sit here, stand here or anything else and boast in the fact that my God loves me, took care of me, got me close to a prophet. That I could sit there and lose my own thinking and get His.

And there’s not one of you sitting here but will admit if Lee Vayle had not sat for four and a half hours, somebody would have sat to find out that the baptism with the Holy Ghost and rebirth is one and the same thing; and the Lamb’s Book of Life and those things that you know so easy today.

Who sat there? I did, and I lost my mind. Yeah, I had to get rid of my thinking. Still hard to do. I’m going to tell you one thing: a virgin wants her mind back. No virgin can get her virginity back if she ever lost it.

I’m going to tell you one thing: you can get your mind back, because that’s where her virginity is. It’s not in a sex organ, it’s in the mind. And the mind is called a sex organ, because it fornicates with creeds and dogmas, and brings forth illegitimate children.

So, the virgin started looking. Good people, fine people they could talk about the Blood. They could talk about gifts. They could talk about the baptism.

They could talk about everything, but, they can’t talk about this. You’ll talk about the Day of the Lord and you’ll muff it, because you can’t get it outside a prophet comes.

Matthew 25:

I’m going to tell you something: there ain’t nobody can give you oil.

I can preach all day and all night, and Brother Branham could have preached all day and all night, he could have told me a million things and it wouldn’t mean one thing if I hadn’t stop interpreting everything I was looking at in the light of what I used to know.

It takes God to give a revelation. Just like He gave it to Peter and the rest.

Now, watch what It says:

That’s why families are going to be divided. That’s right. That’s why men should have ever made the mistake of ever marrying the wrong woman, and woman the wrong man.

You say, “How am I going to know Brother Vayle?” Bible tells you, “God had a wife for Adam, and He brought the wife to Adam, and Adam’s marriage was sanctified and joined by God. How many marriages do we have that here today? I don’t know.

Now, don’t go saying, “Well, Brother Vayle, I think I’ll look and find the right one.” You’re crazy, you won’t find the right one, you got the right one for right at this hour right here.

You say, “How do you know?” Because the prophet said so, “stay as you are.” Just stay as you are.

You say, “What if I don’t make it?”

I’m going to tell you one thing: there’s a White Throne Resurrection coming up and you can walk in then, and I’m going to tell you being outside the Holy City won’t hurt you one little bit, as being inside the Holy City makes us any better.

No way, because it’s all of God. And when it’s all of God, listen brother/sister, if it’s all wool and a yard wide, what is the difference? If it’s all God, don’t you think His wisdom knows how to equal things out, and make everything work just right?

Come on, let’s get relaxed. Pushers don’t get anywhere. Satan pushed, what did he get? Whatever he got pushed up is going to get pushed down way worse.

I’m going to tell you something: everything that goes up has got to come down. And when it comes down it’s worse than when it went up. And it’s a whole lot further down. Just stay where you are. Just stay sweet and kind.

Now, first of all is the Appearing, second is the Coming. As Brother Branham said, and I got to get the exact words on this, because it’s like double-talk, but it’s not. It’s like a slip of the tongue, but it’s not, he says, “He comes before He comes.” That’s right.

The same One that was in flesh, is here in Spirit doing the works He did flesh, proving to be the same One has already come before He’s come, which means ‘incarnation’.

Okay:

Brother Branham said, “Find me a woman of such character who’ll listen to the Message!”

Say, “Brother Vayle, this woman I know is a wonderful character. You see, she is just perfect, she wears her sleeves right, she wears her skirts right, she wears her hair right, and I tell you she treats her husband so good and she always talks about the Lord; and she rolls her eyes up and said, ‘I thank you, Lord, there’s three of You, Father, Son and Holy Ghost, and I’ve been baptized in Your name’.”

She missed it. She doesn’t have character at all. Not what God’s looking for. Rahab had character. Sneaky prostitute.

She said, “Say boys, I heard that you got a God, He ain’t like ours.” She said, “I’d like you tell me about Him.” They told her. She said, “You know what?”

She said, “If I get you out of here safe, she said, will you guarantee me and my family have refuge? Because, she said, I know you got it.” A prostitute.

Where was her character? Here and here. In the head and in the heart. Her body was simply a useful instrument for an easy living, if you call it easy living. Jesus said, “The harlots and the publicans go in ahead of you.”

Nice people with your character. What character? Character to spit in God’s face and make Him a liar?

I’ve had that kind of character. Thank you, I’ve had my share, I got beat down nicely by God. I have made God a liar for my friends. Now, I don’t have any friends anymore.

Sorry folks, I’m going to tell it as it is. I don’t need friends. I need God. And when I make Him my friend, then I’ll have real friends and you’ll have a real friend. But you see, you got to put God where He belongs, which is above everybody.

And when all things are from him and back to Him, you watch the difference. I’m more loyal now for one reason than ever was to anybody, because it doesn’t matter, I’ll still preach the Word. Figure that out. I think you can, it’s not hard.

See, she was looking for Him, and the Bible says, “They that look for Him shall He Appear the second time.”

No, they were looking for creeds and dogmas the rest, she was looking for Him to be veiled in the Word of her understanding to see Him. Are you with me?

Okay, I’m going to let you go in a minute now, I’m just going to read the rest.

And they said, “Lord, Lord, open to us.”

And He said, “Truly, I say, I do not know you,”

That’s not what He said.

He said, “I used to know you as my wife, but I don’t know you as my wife any longer.” The divorce. After the divorce comes the antichrist.

“Watch therefore, you know neither the day nor the hour when the Son of man cometh.”

Tell me who knew the prophet William Branham? Be baptizing in the Ohio River. “Oh, the banks of Jeffersonville, a muddy, cruddy little town.”

A little independent Baptist preacher that had caught the people’s eye, because of his spiritual ability in preaching and soul winning, and praying for sick; loving the Lord.

And the Pillar of Fire was a rainbow began whirling and screaming down, and nobody knew. And the prophet didn’t know, and nobody knew, just like John. Only the prophet knew John.

John said, He’s out there somewhere, and William Branham knew somewhere. It was Something talking to him, and he stood in the river like John the Baptist.

And the One Who was the Pillar of Fire made flesh came down, and this One here who was once made flesh came back as a Pillar of Fire stood there, and He said, “This is ‘My Day’, it’s starting now.”

How many believe It? Not the foolish virgin. They’ll believe It too late. Because, they’ll say, “Wasn’t this supposed to happen? Wasn’t this supposed to happen? Wasn’t that supposed to happen?

Brother/sister, aren’t you glad you’ve been privy to the Day of the Lord?

Why, I’m so happy with the Day of the Lord. I’m so happy that He made a way for us to know. Oh yes, it gives me great rejoicing, and I’m ready to stand for It. Absolutely, I’ll stand for It.

I’ve got no time for the mealy mouth now. They think they can act and eat watermelon, you know like some people eat watermelon. They can it in here and spit seeds out of both sides of their mouth. I don’t buy people like that.

You talk out of both sides of your mouth when it comes to the Presence, and what the prophet brought us. Don’t carnal-ize It, humanize It, victimize It by bringing in creeds and dogmas. Keep It pure. Don’t be afraid to take your stand.

Anybody in this church wonder about a stand; you say, “Brother Vayle, I wonder about gifts.”

All right, let’s dedicate the room upstairs, I’ll go up there with you and see what happens. Come on, I’ll call your bluff right now. You see, I’m not afraid, because I’ve had gifts.

“You think it’ll work Brother Vayle?” I don’t supposed it’ll work for me, but then again I’ll put my arm out and see what God will do.

And then again I just wouldn’t be surprised it would. Because, I’m not worried. I don’t care. You bring the challenge, I’ll answer your challenge. You see, I’m getting out of here.

See, where John looked two thousand years down the time being a prophet, I can look here without being a prophet both the spirit of prophecy.

And I’m going to tell you something out there says, she’s all over. I’m looking at it clear as I’m looking at you.

I may be dead tomorrow morning, but I’m going to tell you this: the Word of this hour is… somebody is not going to die.

You say, “Anybody can say that.” Yeah, can they say it the way I say it? Can they say it the way you say it?

I remember one time young… what’s his name, Carl’s son? cant’ remember, anyway he introduced Brother Branham at a business meeting, and he said, “You know folk, he said, years ago, he said, my mother used to make us dinner and she’d ring this great big old bell to call us in from the field.”

He said, “You know what, he said, a lot of people, he said, could ring a bell and make a dinner, and they could make a call to that dinner, but, he said, there just wasn’t anybody to compare to my brother, he said, that’s the way I feel Brother Branham is.”

He said, “Nobody, he said, can put that Word out, notify the people and get them coming to the banquet of God.” And I believe that brother. I believe we’re in that hour today, the Day of the Lord.

Wednesday night, we’re back to “Who Can Turn on the Light,” reading the tape, reading the books. Sunday, who knows? We’ll get there.

It’s just I like to have notes that I can preach on for about twenty Sundays, it gets me off the hook.

All right, let’s rise, shall we?

[Brother Vayle dedicates a baby before closing prayer.]

Let’s pray.

Heavenly Father, we thank You again for love mercy and grace. We praise You, O God, for giving us this time of fellowship together, and we believe, Lord, that we are more and more confirmed in our understanding. This is the Day that the Lord hath made.

Not only that, but this is the Day that the Lord spoke of to John who wrote It, and we hear It. And we are now in that very hour when He, You Lord, are here with Your fan in Your hand binding the tares, bringing the wheat into the garner, elevating our heats and our minds, renewing us right to repentance keeping in line with You.

And this is that hour that is gone past that beautiful healing revival, and right into restoration when our Lord Jesus Christ Himself shall soon be able to descend, and we will meet Him in the air.

And we thank You for it, Lord, we believe that we are fully aware of the Appearing, and fully aware of the Great Coming. We believe, Lord, that You showed us these things. And when we say we’re fully aware, we mean, Lord, we are absolutely assured of it.

But, Lord, we are not fully aware in the sense of the beautiful things that you have to show us yet.

Feed us on this Bread evermore until the great glory of God Appears in human form, a Bride absolutely transformed within His image and shining with His own Light transmitted through her; she being transformed to His glory. Oh, what a Bride and a Groom is coming up.

Now, unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God in Whom is all power to heal everyone, and make all of us well and bring us to that place. Unto Him be glory, Him alone in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Let’s sing, ‘Take the Name of Jesus with you’.
