Seed Of Discrepancy #10
Propagating God; Examine Yourselves#1695
Shall we pray.
Heavenly Father, we remember so many times when Brother Branham would call a prayer line; he would say to the person, “I feel a real welcoming spirit.”
And we pray Lord, that we… You may feel a welcoming spirit from us because we know that we have more than a welcoming Spirit from You Lord, it’s not just welcome but it’s greatly beneficial. Many people, welcome us and they’re nice and they would talk to us, and that’s very good.
But Lord, You are here to do for us and we know that to be the truth because You’re bringing all things into order, getting the Bride ready, for that which has not entered upon her mind only very vaguely, because we know that the real interpretation, the real revelation, comes by explanation through manifestation, the very experiencing thereof.
So we’re looking forward Lord, to what Your Word has said, knowing there’s far, far, beyond what the Word is at this time which has been spoken and It is going to mature into that which has also been spoken, but whereof, we do not know the height and the depth, but we shall know at that particular time.
We’re grateful for It, but in the meantime, we pray, we shall know the height and depth of what we ought to know at this time Lord, and the mechanics, blessed by the dynamics Father, that we may proceed forth into being the Bride, being the adopted people and to show forth Your praise.
We ask You Lord, to help us to be truly humble and willing to hear Your Word, to obey Your Voice and to walk in the Light and to just let You have right-of-way in our lives.
Get out of the way in some cases; and yet be in The Way in some cases, and which would be, that we want to be very definitely in Your Will in whatever we can do. So grant our service a blessing this morning, we give You praise in Jesus’ Name, Amen.
You may be seated.
Now we’re on number 10 of the Seed of Discrepancy. And last Sunday we got so far as to simply read the preamble and having discussed it, we had no time left to begin reading in the Message.
And so what I want to do this morning, is what I promised I would do, is to simply read the preamble if I can just keep myself disciplined; that’s all I will do and then we’ll go on to reading and commenting from page 8, about paragraph 38, somewhere in that particular area. All right.
When Brother Branham choose this title, wherein he desired to speak of and affirm the reality of existing human entities or persons who are definitely a departure from the original two children of God: Adam and Eve.
He went to Matthew, chapter 13, wherein Jesus Himself refers to Adam and Eve, now not by name, and their own progeny and true descendants as children of God by God’s own sowing.
God’s own sowing: God’s own sperma: God’s own spora: God’s own Life. And another group, who are called the children of the devil or the seed and the sowing of the devil which matured, actually into people the same as we saw with God.
The field wherein both seeds of God and Satan are sown is the field of God, and God alone. Now that’s true. There weren’t two fields. There was one field. This field is called by Paul, “God’s husbandry.”
He said, “You are God’s husbandry. You are God’s field, you are God’s agriculture. You are God’s planting.” Thus it is clearly seen that two different seeds from two different sources; one called God, one called the enemy of God or the devil have been sown in a common field that belongs to God.
“All souls are mine and have to make an account to God.” And thus, and this field has now yielded and continues to yield two species, or two kinds of children from two different sources, and of course, Brother Branham said, “This is the harvest of them.”
Now since Jesus explained his parable there is no longer any problem with the evident truth of where these two seeds actually came from and how they came. Let us face it.
Both Adam and Eve were the seed or the children of God and were called seed on the basis of propagation.
Adam and Eve both propagating what? Propagating God, the species. Horses have horses, dogs have dogs, pigs have pigs, humans have humans; what’s the origin?
God: “God breathed into Adam the breath of lives and man became a living soul.” So we have no problem except with our own inability to cope with the Word of God.
Both Adam and Eve were the seed or children, the seed children of God; they were called seed on the basis of propagation. Adam and Eve; both had the same life and were one species and could in mating produce nothing but replications or images of their own original and God produced selves.
Well? You breed dogs; do you expect to get horses? That would be nice. Get a couple of dogs, fifty bucks a piece, and get an Arabian stallion worth ten thousand a piece. I’m nasty; aren’t I?
My God, look it, see, I don’t understand people. I don’t understand people. Why cannot they believe the Word of God that’s vindicated? Of course, It’s not vindicated to them.
Adam and Eve both had the same life. Naturally, and were of one species and could in mating produce nothing but replications or images of their own original and God produced selves.
But the woman does not carry seed, even though she herself is a seed. The woman is a field in which the seed is buried for a period of about nine months and then she gives birth. Adam was also a field in that he carried seed.
But that seed could not bring forth outside the woman, which… and Paul explains that in 1 Corinthians 11:8 to 12. And I better take the time to read it because this is very important. And 11:8 to 12, it is saying,
(08) [But] the man is not of the woman; but the woman of the man. [See? Same life.]
(09) Neither was the man created for the woman; but the woman for the man.
Why? Sexual affair, doormat, servant, oh come on, he’s talking about what we’re talking about this morning. Propagation: children unto God. See?
(11) Nevertheless neither is the man without the woman, [I skipped the 10th verse; it doesn’t matter.] neither the woman without the man, in the Lord.
(12) For as the woman is of the man, even so is the man also by the woman; but all things of God.
He’d tell you that’s how God laid it out and that’s the way it is. God breathed into Adam the breath of lives and he became a living soul. And that’s the life of God in us is our soul.
Remember, the serpent had a place for a soul, but did not have one. He had life. And Brother Branham explains that by saying, “We have an inner soul. We have a gene from God.”
Theologians mostly do not agree… will agree with themselves, “That animals do not have souls,” Brother Branham said so. But you go to your Bible, go to the original Hebrew, you will find the word ‘soul’ is used of animals.
So what did Brother Branham do, he clarified it, he explained it, he showed us the truth, “Inner, inner, gene from God, Adam had the gene from God.”
Brother Branham said, “Who are you? You’re that soul. Where did you come from? Did you come from God? Then you have a part of you that is eternal, that never did need saving. You always were saved.”
Theologians will not go with William Branham, but William Branham is a vindicated theologian quoting Paul. Who are you going to believe? Who are you going to believe? I don’t try to force anybody.
You can believe what you want but I believe this or I wouldn’t preach it. I believe it right down to perfection.
Not to the perfection I will have, as time goes on, and I think nothing but the pure Word of God, after all God did not hit me with a lightning bolt and then bong my head on the concrete, but He did speak to my heart concerning who I should listen to which was the man that I saw vindicated.
Woman does not carry seed. She does not. The man carries seed. But the man has to have the woman; the woman has to have the man.
Now in the original plan of God, we find Paul speaking of seed producing or developing into bodies. We read that in 1 Corinthians 15:35 to 39. You do not plant that body, you plant the seed. And in that seed there is a genetic pattern within the life.
And the strangest thing in all the world, that’s like a spirit, it’s a life and as soon as it’s watered, the substance of that seed begins to get eaten up in order to produce the chemical action, reaction, the plant.
Let science do that. And they say there’s no God. ain’t is marvelous, this Australian fellow, he gets a million dollars from the Templeton fund because he relates science and religion.
And he was going to be some kind of Presbyterian, divine or Anglican divine, or Pentecostal divine, now that’s a thought, isn’t it? And he couldn’t hack it; so he became a scientist, so-called.
And he wrote a treatise finally, how that there must be something that you don’t really want to call ‘God’ out there, but there’s an order. Hall… I was going to say, “Hallelujah.” They should have given me the million bucks and I could have done better than that.
I would just have shown them some of Brother Branham’s two… two films. Say, do what you want with it. Do what you want. Oh my, my, my, my, my. It’s a great life if you don’t weaken. All right.
Now in Genesis 3:1 to 15 and 3:20 where Eve was declared the mother of all living and we see Satan enter through the serpent to hybridize the human race, the field of God. And this is a true historical account of one field, or womb, baring two children, of two different sources.
That’s what happened. She was a field, fruit tree. And at that time the sperm and ovum of male and female beast could no longer bring forth according to original pattern but were given bodies by a displeased God.
So I can see no hope for any serpent or beast seed in the resurrection according to 1 Corinthians 15, but only the Lake of Fire.
And so on down the line we read, we looked at Romans the 9th chapter, and we saw predestination there on the grounds of foreknowledge of one lump of clay where Abraham had Isaac and the…
Ishmael and one was one seed, two women but here they were children of Abraham, Isaac, by one husband and one wife Rebekah, one was Esau; “God hated, one seed and loving the other.” So we can see what we’re talking about.
Then we come to the place where we find headship in Judas as Brother Branham said. Now we look at Judas and Jesus, both of these men, and I repeat, men, actually, were incarnated; one by Elohim and one by Satan.
So you know logically, if God took that seed Jesus as His Seed, you think Satan would do less. He had to acknowledge his seed. So Satan incarnated him. Say, we don’t go by logic.
I’m not going by logic; I’m just telling it’s logical to understand the Bible telling you that. And now at the end time when Elohim again shall be incarnated in Jesus at the Rapture, the devil will incarnate himself in the pope, when the Bride’s gone.
Now speaking of these end time serpent seed, many of which are very religious, Brother Branham points out that Judas was very religious. He even joined with the great Messiah prophet and had a ministry of gifts, yet he himself was not real, that’s Judas wasn’t.
In spite of what would appear to make him even like unto Jesus, which was his human figure, he was, actually, an intelligent beast. “Brute beast made to be taken and destroyed.” Well, what are you going to do with the pope?
You can’t have Alpha without Omega and you can’t have Omega without Alpha. Right? Alpha and Omega is a principle. So all right.
What about Judas? His control was not the Word of God. His control was the same word of Genesis 3: Hath God said? Is this the truth? Will this really happen?
Most people don’t doubt there’s a God; they just wonder, “Hey, what’s He doing anyway? What about that Word of His? Oh, come on, you really don’t believe that, do you, about God?”
Every now and then I meet someone that’s got a good reasoning nature and he tries to reason things out and it’s very cute, but… it won’t work: a reasoning creature which is man.
The seed of God can both reason and believe. But always the Seed of God, true Bride will reject reason for revelation. The beast cannot do this. There is no place in him for the true Word; perverted word, yes.
Truth, no! That’s why at the end time He’s the God of Truth and He’s rejected entirely. The Bible said, “They crucified themselves the Son of God.” That’s the Holy Ghost.
He can’t receive a revelation even when vindicated. Judas could not and all living Judas’s simply cannot. They cannot receive revelation. They can go so far and no further.
Now we read Scripture the other day in 2 Timothy 3:1 to 14, Hebrews 6, 2 Peter 1 all the way through and the Book of Jude. And we notice these very religious people and they’re nothing but serpent seed.
And at the end time they’re Pentecostal chaff and the majority. And they’re the ones that are mentioned because they are the last to have the Life of God go through them before It goes into the Seed. And it looks like the real thing.
Pentecostals and Branhamites in many ways are twins, or should be. Except, God forbid, that we should go so far as one Pentecostal preacher, put a sign over the church where they come together, and he put, “Gift Room”.
So now they can talk in tongues and do what they want to do. And the other guy lied to me about his microphone hanging in the pews, to pick up any messages. He said, “Brother Vayle, I don’t do it.”
He said, “But if I did the big, the big… ” And he was doing it. He said, “The tragic thing is we’re not getting any messages.” Why would he want a message in tongues when you’re preaching the Word of God?
If you tried that here I would just say, “Ushers, please, deacons, please take the brother, sister out.” If you don’t respect the house of God who’s going to respect you? You ask me one reason why I should?
“Well, be nice.” What do you mean ‘nice’? You don’t think the serpent was nice to Eve? Ho! Seducers, not rapers, brother/sister, is what you better watch out for.
The number of rapes in this country are infinitesimal, compared to seductions, and the woman is just as messed up with either one, except in one, she doesn’t have an excuse, the other she would have an excuse, they should kill the guy.
Now I just say that and I mean it. I mean it; I got no problem with it. Bible says so. What rights has he got to do that junk?
Then at the end time we see Revelation 13 and 2 Thessalonians, Son of man, son of perdition; two ministries. One by the Son of God and one being used, the ministries being used by the son of the serpent.
And believe me, let me tell you; the people today are almost all brute beasts made to be taken and destroyed, because they are just like the time of the flood. Eight people made the ark.
Only one person was truly human. When he died… when Noah died; it was all over. From that time you had the one lump, the seed carried, that the men carried, serpent, God.
You say, “Why would God allow it?” It’s God’s business. For the judgment coming when He will not allow it? Okay, all right.
We’re going to go to reading on page 8, because my we’re getting way behind on verse… paragraph 38, and notice: [SEED.OF.DISCREPANCY PHOENIX.AZ V-12 N-5 65-0118]
[38] If [Jesus] was the… If Judas was the seed of the enemy and the discrepancy, [or that word ‘and’ should be… it’s a preposition, in this case, you can tell it.] If Judas was the seed of the enemy… [even] the discrepancy, it also [became] flesh and dwelt among us in the person of Judas Iscariot.
Now… look what he’s doing here: He’s talking about a person before he’s even in flesh. Now we were persons before we were in flesh. “When the morning stars sang and the sons of God clapped their hands and danced around the throne;” we have no memory, we did it.
Now he said, “Judas was already that, in the preexistent form and if you don’t take it too far back, which we don’t have to, you can take it to the time when he was in his father’s loins, seed, when it was not yet manifested.”
And for a long time you couldn’t tell. In fact, hey, let’s face it, when they went out to carry the Gospel at Jesus’ command; I wouldn’t be surprised if Judas sang the praises of Jesus even louder than Peter. And Peter was a real individual.
[38] [So] Judas was the seed of the enemy, [even] the discrepancy, [And he was. and] also became flesh and dwelt among us in the person [that was known as] Judas Iscariot.
All at this time, Brother Branham is saying, “Here is that seed and there’s nothing you can do about it. and that seed had to come forth a hundred percent as it was, from his father’s loins and his father’s and his father’s, his father’s, his father’s, his father’s, right back to Cain and right back to the serpent.”
Now you can do what you want about it; that’s the truth. There’s only two seeds, two sowers; one woman. Eve’s the mother of all living, even science proves that. But they got a snidely say, “Well, there could have been many Eves but we know we came from this one.”
You know, I think there should be… well, there’s a day of reckoning coming for their folly anyway.
So, all right, Judas was already foreknown and written about, even the Book of Life because he was a part of Israel. To come forth when he came forth; he was exactly that serpent seed, and he was the highest of all serpent seeds because Satan would indwell him.
Now that’s logical, because Jesus was the highest of all God’s Seed, so God indwelt him, became a perfect manifestation of God. So Judas now becomes a perfect manifestation.
And you’ll notice that manifestation what was it? Judas tried to get the Seed of God completely destroyed. He wanted Jesus destroyed. Now listen, in the great white… after the Great White Throne and there’s two separate paths; what does Satan try to do?
He gathers all his host together and attempts to destroy the people of God and the holy encampment. No change; no. You see what we’re talking about? God’s seed cannot change; they’ve got to believe, they’ve got to do.
The seed of the serpent cannot change. They’ve got to believe. They’ve got to do. And God’s children, His seed will go by revelation, also, a certain amount of reasoning, because once you are born-again and begin to exercise the Word of God in your life, you come to a place of discernment, which means judgment and you can judge between.
And you can be according to Malachi, you can speak the Word and talk to people and you can judge between righteous and evil people and those who serve God and those who don’t.
If you catch one of our preachers, he says, “I believe in Brother Branham”, yet he’s telling his own people now that he’s going to be a district elder over many people, little satellite churches and there’s going to be typed out, that he’s Joshua or somebody, and there’s going to be two million enter the Millennium with him.
Now he says he believes Brother Branham. Now, how can this man believe Brother Branham? He’s a Latter-Rainer. He always was, he cannot change. He cannot help himself. He’s got… he’s got to tell.
Whereas up here I cannot tell you different; eight people made it, don’t sit there and think eight hundred, eight thousand, eight million’s going to make it. Eight people made it.
So if you want to draw your types, you better draw your types correctly. And then Brother Branham distinctly told us, “You better watch, even your illustrations because your illustrations can take you off one word, you’re gone.”
I’m quoting you the prophet. I’m not quoting Lee Vayle. I’m not here for Lee Vayle. If I was here for Lee Vayle, I wouldn’t be here. You know that, certainly, I’d be out there in the world.
[38] [See, Judas,] if Judas was the seed of the enemy; [He certainly was. Since Judas was a seed, even] the discrepancy, [Even that changed from a human being, he was a beast. Had the form and everything else but he was a beast, just like the anti-Christ. He came.]
…in the person of Judas Iscariot. [That the devil may inhabit him.] He never had [any] real, real faith. He had what he thought was… faith. There’s such a thing as having faith; and a make-believe faith.
All right. Here we’re looking at the basis of the son of perdition and the Son of man in the end time, because Brother Branham took this to the end time. So, we’re now going to go to 2 Corinthians, the 13th chapter, and let us see what we come up with because I believe there’s some tremendously interesting things for this hour.
And so we’re going to look at the 5th verse, because Brother Branham… has already told these people to listen, this isn’t just a parable. This is for you people sitting here under my ministry and as every church has three kinds of believers; they’re sitting here tonight.
Now you Pentecostals get this and get this flat, you chaff, end time people, and he counts himself as Pentecostal, you’ll find himself doing it. He said, “I want you to know what’s happening.” So let’s look at it in the 5th verse.
(05) Examine yourselves, whether [you] be in the faith; [Now he said here, “Judas never had any real, real faith.” Now Paul says,]…
(05) Examine yourselves, whether [you] be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except [you] be reprobates?
Isn’t it funny; the world wants to tell everybody we’re all reprobates? In other words, we’re all dogs that can get born-again, and all hogs that can get born-again, all goats that get born-again, the doctrine of reprobation is a lie from the pit of hell.
If you’re a Seed of God there’s no way you can be a reprobate or reprobated. How can God reprobate one of His children? See, these guys don’t know the Bible.
Now Paul said,
(05) Examine [yourself,] [Now let’s read the context; we go back to verse 1.]
(01) This is the third time I am coming to you. [Now watch!] In the mouth of two or three witnesses shall every word be established.
These are the words of the Old Testament and the words of Jesus. And they’re the words of the New Testament. It says here, that you need two. And Paul explains the real two.
And he does it in Hebrews; that God Himself came down and interposed Himself with an oath and the interposition of God with an oath is always with a prophet. And the prophet is always vindicated.
Right? You bet, you bet I’m right. You want to sit there wrong, that’s up to you entirely. It takes two. It takes God and the prophet. If the people want to know something they cannot worship and serve God without a prophet; we saw that.
Now watch!
(02) I [have] told you before, and foretell you, as if I were present, the second time; and being absent now I write to them which heretofore have sinned, and to all other, that, if I come again, I will not spare:
Now hold it. This guy’s tough. He’s not tough for Paul; he’s tough for God and the Word. Now keep watching.
(03) Since ye seek a proof of Christ speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you.
Oh, boy, you talk about a big blowhard. Here comes the apostle Paul, bless God, what does he say here? He said, “Since ye seek proof of Christ speaking in me, which is mighty in you.” Did we get that far with Brother Branham?
Or do we believe it this morning? You know what I’m trying to show you? Vindication! Vindication! Paul was vindicated. He never spoke small peanuts for Herod or a bunch of Full Gospel Businessmen and neither did William Branham.
(04) For though he was crucified through weakness, yet he… [No, ya, seek, let me read it again.]
(03) …seek ye proof of Christ speaking in me, which to you-ward is not weak, but is mighty in you.
(04) For though he [Christ] was crucified through weakness, yet he liveth by the power of God.
And now that same Holy Ghost God Himself is dealing with them through Paul.
(04) For we also are weak in him, but we shall live with him by the power of God toward you.
(05) Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith;
All right, now the question is: have you examined yourself that you believe in vindication? Or are you a little leery? Or are you waiting to turn a corner? Or are you like most of these Pentecostals that call themselves Branhamites, north, south, east and west of us, all around us?
You couldn’t get them to preach the truth if they tried? Because the truth isn’t in them. They’ve never believed Brother Branham was truly vindicated; they’ve been enamored by him.
But have they sat there for the Word, as men and women that hunger, as Brother Branham said, “My heart panteth after the water brook.” Rather, “after thee, O God, as the hart panteth after the water brook.” I know them.
He said,
(05) …Know ye not your own selves, how that… Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?
(06) But I trust… ye shall know that [you] are not reprobates.
(07) Now I pray to God that ye do no evil… [or] that [you would] appear approve… not that we should appear approved, but that [you] should do that which is honest, though we be as reprobates. [That’s what they call us.]
(08) For [Listen!] we can do nothing against the truth, but for the truth.
Isn’t that wonderful. That’s one thing I’ve got to learn. Because man I come out slugging all the time with cannons, shots and all I need is a fly swatter. Just stick with the Word of God, nothing else.
(09) For we are glad, when [you] are weak, and ye are strong: and this also we wish, even your perfection.
(10) Therefore… being absent… Therefore I write these things being absent, lest being present I should use sharpness, according to the power which… [God] hath given me to edification, and not to destruction.
He knew he had something, same as William Branham had, the time he stood there and I saw him; he could have killed that boy right then. That couple could have died right there. He had the ability.
Paul had the same thing. And he said, “I’m glad I don’t have to come and face you because I know what you’re pulling off. And I know what you’re doing. It may come to the place where it’s just more than words, and you want to know I’ve got vindication or not; Christ is speaking in me?
That I’m the authority of God? That he that hears me; hears God: that he that listens to me is being taught by Jesus Christ.” Oh, he says that in Ephesians, I quoted it to you. Here’s your… check your selves out. Check yourselves out.
You know what Brother Branham is doing, let me tell you what he is doing. He said, “Just think the same Pillar of Fire that brought the Word to Paul is here revealing It.” Not, not really.
The same Pillar of Fire is merely saying the same thing through Brother Branham but he’s giving it in the twentieth century when it’s all over. And all it is is an explanation in the sense that he is elaborating.
But William Branham hasn’t changed one thing here. He says, “Here he didn’t have real, real faith.” Well, who’s got it? Let’s find out.
Let’s see if I’m a Judas or I’m a child of God. Everybody sat grinning. I’m a child of God. I’m a child of God. I’m a child of God. I’m a child of God.
Then pretty soon, the women heard Brother Branham and he said, “Every time I come back, [he said,] your shorts, skirt, your hair’s shorter and…” “Hee, hee, haw, chuckle, chuckle, chuckle.”
I hope you don’t think I’m a woman hater but women upset me. They upset me because too many women, not our sisters here, but out in the world, they all upset me because they are just the real livid rotten thing that the church is.
And oh man, how they’ll let you know that they can run the world and men fail. When you talk about the men failing and make the Holy Ghost like this guy in Florida does, you make him female.
I don’t know how many here would have any inclination toward that. Let me tell you something; you’re worse than reprobates. You’re worse than reprobates. You haven’t got a clue.
But there’s going to be people around this Message that they’re going to run out, and back and forth, up and down, do everything they can to destroy the people with it. Here this fellow Judas, this Judas is a mutation.
Let’s look at mutations. According to Mendel’s Law and you study the thing through, you’ll find… and scientists wants to make all of us mutations where you’re mutating up from the slimy little tadpole or something, whatever the original germ was, out of the slime.
Forget it. You get a mutation; you’re going to find the negative factor is always greater than the positive. So there has to come a time when there’s going to be hardly any seed of God on this earth, eight made the ark, and all the rest, five and a half billion are going to be serpent seed.
Now watch!
[38] He had what he thought was… faith. There’s such a thing as having faith; and… make-believe faith.
Peter says the same thing. He speaks of ‘unfeigned love’. He speaks of ‘faith’. I always like to go to 1 Peter because; let’s face it, that’s the place to go, right? Right! 1 Peter, it says here, 1 and 22.
(22) Seeing ye have purified your soul… in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, see that ye love one another [fervently] with a pure heart…
(23) Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which lives and abides for ever.
He tells you that seed Word has to have another dose of seed… of Word upon it which is the conduit of the Holy Ghost, to shake it and bring it forth to life as Paul said, “Awake thou that sleepest, and arise from amongst the dead, and Christ shall give you light.”
It doesn’t say life; it says, ‘Light.’ Now remember, everything that makes manifest is light. That makes manifest; that Pillar of Fire taken by a camera. The raising of the dead and the healing of the sick and all those things: the Word of God which lives and abides forever.
(24) For all flesh is [just like]… grass, and… the [man]… the glory of [the] man as the flower of the grass. The grass withereth, [and fadeth]…
That’s wonderful but what about the Word? The Word lives on. In other words, you yourself as a being leaving this earth, you do not die, you go to that body that’s waiting for you eternal, it’s right in… 2 Corinthians the 5th chapter verse 1.
You go there and you wait for your physical body to come and Brother Branham said you can shake hands and hug each other, there’s no bad sensations, everything is of God, but you can’t eat, and you can’t drink, because you don’t have that body.
He was there with them and saw it. So all right. We’re having a nice time on this little sentence of Brother Branham. Judas was the seed of the enemy. He was the discrepancy, he certainly was, didn’t have a serpent body, because he’s not a human being.
That became flesh all the way from Cain all the way down. Became Judas Iscariot, the person and he never had any real, real faith. He had what he thought was faith. He didn’t examine himself.
I wonder how many people that night examine themselves from what Brother Branham says here? See? According to him, “Examine yourselves”, well, let’s see, have I thought a bad thought this morning?
Was I nice to my wife? Was my nice wife nice to me? In other words, it’s not a matter of revelation; it’s always a matter of action, action, action, action. “But remember, the mule can outwork the horse any day of the week:” quoting Brother Branham.
Actions do count but only if you’re seed. Many will come in that day and say, “Lord, have we not cast out devils in Thy Name? Prophesied and done other works?” And here’s the witnesses; yes, Lord, I delivered her from the insane institution, she will tell You.
Oh, they’ll come like the Pentecostal girl will come, they gave her three, they gave her three apples and they passed them through the bars of a cell, she said, “Father, Son and Holy Ghost. I’ve sinned against thee all.”
So one lady got to praying and fasting, the preacher he didn’t do so good, when they got in the cell, the devil spirit knocked him down flatter than a pancake.
You can tell why Brother Branham said that falling over is the wrong spirit. I don’t care if Hinn breathes on them or Mr. Fox used to lay hands on them, or Pentecostals or Branhamites do it. “It’s of the devil.”
Brother Branham said so. Do we believe a prophet or don’t we? Now my question is in the judgment; what is going to happen, they come and say, “We cast the devils out of this woman.
“Now if they’re Trinitarian idolaters, what’s it going to be? Well, you’re just fine; come on in. Hey, that was great that you did that. Have you ever heard about a steward?
You know what a steward is? A steward is the guy that has something in charge of which belongs to somebody else. I understand gifts of the Holy Spirit mean they belong to Him. And what if we have those gifts and use them wrong? Well, we should think about it.
[38] He had what he thought was a faith. There’s such a thing as having faith; a make-believe faith.
[39] And a genuine faith of God will believe in God, and God is the Word, it’ll never add [anything] to It. The Bible tells us if we add one word, or take [away] one Word… our part will be taken [out of]… the Book of Life, [that’s] Revelation 22:18, the last closing chapter.
What do you say we turn to 1 Corinthians, chapter 14, the same Pillar of Fire that brought the Word is here revealing It. “I preached what Paul preached,” said William Branham. Then listen to what William Branham says in verse 34 and down.
(34) Let your women keep silence in the churches: for it is not permitted unto them to speak; but they are commanded to be under obedience, as also saith the law.
(35) And if they will learn any thing, let them ask their husbands at home: for it is a shame for women to speak in the church.
(36) What? [They’re questioning him. See?] came the word of God out from you? or came it unto you only?
(37) If any man think himself to be a prophet, or [full of the Holy Ghost], let him acknowledge that the things that I write… are the commandments of the Lord.
(38) But if [you want to] be ignorant [of the fact of Deuteronomy, chapter 18, and refuse to take it, then be my guest, says Paul.]
Do you think Paul came by with a bull whip and tried to whip people into submission? No, I know I preach up here tough, but you know out of the pulpit, hey, I don’t care what you do, where you go, what you think; that’s your business.
I just preach and the tapes go out. And I preach hard, I preach up with the Word of God. But I don’t hold a club over anybody. But I want to tell you something. This Word of God is tough. It can’t be added to, It can’t be taken from, so that means It can’t be broken.
Paragraph 40.
[40] In the first beginning, the first Book of the Bible, God told them not to break one Word of That, “every Word must be kept,” they must live by that Word. Jesus, in the middle of the Book, came along and said that in His age, and said, “Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that comes out of the mouth of God.” And in the closing age of Revelation, [see?]… in the closing age of Revelation,
Now there’s a double thought there. One is the Book of Revelation. And the other is Seven Seals, Seven Thunders which, of course, are in that Book.
[40] And in the closing age of Revelation, foretold to us, that “Whosoever shall take one Word out of the Book, or add one word to It, his part shall… be taken [out of]… the Book of Life.” [That Revelation, of course, chapter 22:18-19.]
So Brother Branham is now bringing the people to the place where God has dealt in three. Number one: back at the time of Moses and before. Number two: the time of Jesus. Number three: at the time of William Branham because Paul does not say this. It is William Branham.
Paragraph 41.
[41] Therefore there can be nothing shadowy, just a genuine, unadulterated Word of God!
In other words, he’s telling us here, the revelation must be so clear and so precise, though a wayfaring man be a fool he need not err therein. In other words, there are no more shadows.
There are no more glares. No more looking into a glass darkly. No more veils upon the mind. I’m letting that sink in because we are prone to believe there are veils upon our minds when that is not true.
Every veil has been removed by the Word; it is we who choose to let our minds linger with the old creeds and dogmas of which Brother Branham correctly said so beautifully, “How are you going to be dressed and ready for the Wedding Supper?
Never ever talk of those old creeds and dogmas ever again. But you got to talk: what are you going to talk about? What Malachi said: the Word. Think the Word to the place where you can’t think anymore and talk anymore the old way.”
Now listen! Let’s get this flat: there’s no such a thing as a super, super spiritual person. Jesus was the only person who ever lived the Word, but we can believe It. David, knowingly broke every commandment in the Book.
He even took advantage of his authority as a great man. He lowered himself. Yet, the man loved God and had a real revelation. What I’m telling you, is looking at this here.
A true Bride at the end time will not be all cluttered up with turning corners and wondering about the Parousia, when it’s simply the ‘Presence’. They don’t even know Who came down.
They don’t even know Who’s here. Who is that? Tell me! Well, come on. Sure, it’s Elohim. Certainly, isn’t the Lamb. Where is the Lamb? Certainly. Take that down to Tennessee, ask them down there.
Of course, us northerners, our brains are so chilled with the cold, that’s the trouble. Well, I’m a red-hot believer; I’m sorry, I can’t take your luke-warm vomit.
[41] …there‘s… nothing can be shadowy, just a genuine unadulterated Word of God!… [If it is going to be given to the Bride, so that she will not add or take one Word.]
Now what did Eve do? She listened to an argument. She listened to a reasoning beast. The beast couldn’t get a revelation if he tried. Satan couldn’t get a revelation and he tried. But they can reason.
And you know why the devil tries to overcome the holy encampment at the end time and God and His servants? Because there’s billions of them and there’s very few of us. “Why,” he said, “anybody knows numbers are…” It’s like the old game; he that gets there fastest with the mostest, wins the battle. And he said, “We’re… the mostest”
Now listen to me! Let you minds go. Do you realize that’s actually going to take place? The devil and his crowd thinks they can do it. And then you know what’s going to come and happen afterward?
When he gets thrown down there in the Lake of Fire? We’re going to go by and say, “Oh merciful God, is this, no, it can’t be, it can’t be what made everybody tremble.”
Have you heard the pope’s latest encyclical? Oh, he roars like a lion, but he’s only a mouse. He’s only a blob of fat with a fat mouth; his own people don’t even believe him. But I tell you the old boy’s held his ground on certain things I admire.
He’s cut out abortion. Birth control, that’s not natural. Women preachers. But that doesn’t amount to a hill of beans because everything else goes. The weightier matters have been left out entirely.
But he’s just a mouse. And yet people jump. Clinton goes hippity-hippity hop. Almost think he came from Australia, like a kangaroo or something, I don’t know. Oh yeah. I can see why Reagan went over there because his preacher is no better than the pope.
You know all about his preacher, don’t you? His personal pastor; he’s tied up with five women in the congregation, at least that many, I guess. Why am I bringing all this out? I’m bringing this out because this is what’s going on today in the face of That.
And there’s nobody… there’s nobody ashamed of themselves, nobody’s crying, nobody’s mourning, nobody’s repenting. Notice how I use the term loosely there when you’re talking of the five and a half billion people in the world; what do you see?
And the billions in the church; a billion Protestants, a billion Catholics and a billion Mohammedans that are supposed to be sweet fine people, and you know that they… they live by the sword.
[41] There… Therefore… cannot be anything shadowy, just a genuine unadulterated Word of God! That’s sons of God, and daughters of God, whose… borned not by the will of man, nor by the shaking of a hand, or some form of baptism;
Like what? Like Salvation Army, wearing a suit of clothes that looks different and that’s their baptism. What do the Mennonites do? Do the Mennonites go by… do they… do they believe in baptism?
You’ve got me beat there. Sprinkling, I’d imagine. Then they wear those clothes. I don’t know. Let me tell you something. You get baptized in water, completely immersed in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ or you are not going to go onto the baptism with the Holy Ghost normally.
Now I know it’s been done, in time past, you could receive the Holy Ghost without water baptism. But the point is: the program of God is “Repent and be baptized in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ for remission of sin and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost,” and as Brother Branham correctly said, “You do two; God does the third. You can’t help it.”
See? Then you pile Word upon Word. See? All right. Let’s go again.
[41] …there’s absolutely… there can be absolutely nothing shadowy, just a genuine unadulterated Word… That’s sons of God, and daughters of God, whose… born of the will… not born… of the will of man, nor by shaking hands, or some form of baptism; but borned in the Spirit of God, by the Holy Ghost, and the Word manifesting Itself through them. That’s genuine Seed…
Now watch it. Just watch right there. Because over here, as in every single sermon, he brings out the… on healing and raising the dead and all of these other things and everybody comes right along and says, “Oh, that’s fine.
We know we really are it. We really know we got it. But just a minute, he is doing… preaching what Paul preached and this is twentieth century. Go back to 2 Corinthians 13 again, and you will find out that Paul identifies himself as that seed that brings forth the Word to all other seeds.
Now watch again! He is talking and he can fool you here so completely, you’ll begin believing you’re going to have all the signs and wonders. When Brother Branham said, “The church has had its last sign.”
But that doesn’t mean that the dead cannot be raised, the sick cannot be healed, the blind cannot see, the deaf cannot hear, the dumb cannot speak, and the devils cast out. Absolutely, it should be going on and is going on and can go on and must go on.
“As long as there’s a genuine Bride, there’ll be a genuine gift of tongues”, quoting the prophet. That’s THUS SAITH THE LORD, vindicated.
And he says right here, “Born of the Spirit of God by the Holy Ghost and the Word manifesting Itself through them; that’s genuine seed.” How many of them does he put himself with?
Moses, Paul, William Branham. Don’t tell me anybody sitting here and all of you put together and all of us put together and the whole world put together can qualify here.
Because he’s talking about Revelation, chapter 22, you can’t add a word and you can’t take a word and he’s bringing the fact out of the Word of God and it can only be brought by a prophet and if its going to be manifested then it’s got to come by a prophet.
And he said, “God reveals His Word by manifesting It.” What Word then is He then revealing? He’s revealing: you can’t add to It or take from It because here’s a prophet. Not you and I; not you and I: get over that nonsense.
I said time and time again, I had a past ministry and I was on the field, I depended on it, I challenged them that I could tell them what’s wrong with them: and I did it, too. When they didn’t have any faith, I used my faith, I used the prayer of faith and they got healed.
Oh, you can stick with the Word of God like a bulldozer and go plumb to hell doing it. Don’t think for one minute you can’t. I could have been an absolute serpent seed, but the more I went to the Word, the more the gifts disappeared.
Oh, the more I was around Brother Branham, the more everything went down the drain. I had true discernment; I didn’t have all true discernment; I had a lot of true discernment which meant… I had… I made a lot but I gave was perfectly right but a lot… some wasn’t.
So could I stand up here under those conditions and tell you that I can give you this. I wasn’t manifesting the Word; I was no manifester of the Word. If I prayed a prayer of faith and you rise up out of your seat healed… that’s just evidence of the Word’s living.
That John, rather, Mark 16 is true. The gifts are here. But you talk about manifesting this, adding a Word, taking a Word and you’re talking now about incarnation, which remember, Jesus was Son of man with that perfect ministry and the Holy Ghost and Satan was right there with that razor blade difference using everything God allowed him to use for the perverted word, a real false betrayer prophet, betrayer of God right now in this hour.
That’s what he’s talking about; don’t tell me telling some Pentecostal, “Hey, you’re great, you got it.” Come on, they’re chaff. Merciful God, you couldn’t have… sell me Brother Branham’s a prophet if he boiled out of his mouth this side because he wanted to make favourite Pentecost and hit this side because he wanted to be a Baptist.
That’s hypocrisy. Hey, that’s… I wouldn’t do that myself. Forget it. He couldn’t have done it because he was a prophet. You couldn’t bribe him for money.
They came with money and said, “Take it away.” They tried to make him somebody, he said, “Get out of my hair.”
So therefore, he’s telling you at this end time here; there is absolutely no way whatsoever that there is not a perfect clarity so that we may have it, not add or take a word and then have a conduct with it.
Let’s look at the book of James, chapter 1.
(01) James, a servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, to the twelve tribes which are scattered abroad, greeting,
(02) My brethren, count it all [pure] joy when [you] fall into divers [testings];
(03) Knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
(04) …let patience have her perfect work, that [you] may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.
Now listen, perfect and entire as pertaining to conduct means that you believe the Word of God and walk in It until the results promised are yours. That’s not the perfection that comes by the Blood. That’s not the perfection sanctification comes by the Word.
That’s an active faith. Your passive faith is your revelation. And if you’re off your passive faith; I don’t care how great you act for God because you’re only condemned. That’s Matthew 7. You’ve heard me preach that enough to know I know what I’m talking about.
James 1:
(06) But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like [the] wave of the sea driven with the wind…
(07) …let not that man think… he‘ll receive any thing [from God.]
(08) A double-minded man… [“That’s,” Brother Branham said, “is a hypocrite. A hypocrite.” That’s what Judas was.]… is unstable in all his ways.
(09) Let the brother of low degree rejoice in… [him that]… exalted.
(10) But the rich, in that he is made low: because as the flower of the grass he shall pass away [also. He’s nothing.]
(11) For [as] the sun is no sooner risen with a burning heat, [Now Peter says the same thing about grass.] but [is withered]… withered the grass, and the flower thereof falleth… the [grass] of… the grace of the fashion… perishes: so also shall the rich man fade away in his ways.
(12) Blessed is the man that endureth temptation: for when he is tried, he shall receive the crown of life, which the Lord hath promised to them that love him.
Now there’s a special crown for those who go through temptations and trials. But just a minute, what if your temptation and trial is off the Word? Then you get nothing.
Come on, look at the Pentecostals, they raise… they pray for the sick, they raise the dead, and they’ve been excoriated, they’ve been spurned, they’ve been spit on and at judgment day, listen, let’s get this flat or this Word lies and That lied, and the man under that man lied.
He said, “They’re going to come and say, ‘Have we not raised, cast out devils, have we not prophesied.’ ‘I never knew you’.” Okay, here’s the Bible, you want to preach it?
I’m getting it right from that fellow right there: William Branham, prophet of God, vindicated, a man that feared God, a man that loved God, a man that obeyed God, a man in whom God was veiled and spoke the Word of Life, right alongside Moses and Paul because God works in threes.
I’m not glamorizing Brother Branham; I love him with all my heart. But I’m going to tell you, he’s not God. And he’s not Jesus my Savior, because he’s not up there on the throne mediating. He’s not interceding.
Boy, Lee Vayle, you think anybody needs an intercessor, this is the guy right here. William Branham isn’t there. Forget it. But he’s the prophet of this hour; there isn’t anybody else. Nothing more is going to happen. See.
James 1… get a crown.
(13) Let no man say when he is tempted, I am tempted of God: [So you can’t be tempted of God; you can be tested with evil. He doesn’t tempt any man.]
(14) But every man is tempted, when he is drawn away of his own lust, and enticed. [Now see, that’s Eve.]
(15) [And]… when [that] lust hath conceived, it bringeth forth sin: and sin, when it is finished, bringeth forth death. [That’s right exactly. That’s the Garden of Eden.]
(16) Do not err, my beloved brethren.
(17) Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above…
Ha, ha! How many perfect gifts were in this hour? One. One. Pentecostal church is full of gifts. Some of the Branham churches are full of gifts. Study their history like I have; see what’s happening.
The bold great churches that thought they had everything in order suddenly find themselves in a mess. See, they didn’t have the man with the discerning of spirits at the door like Brother Branham said.
That’s what I bank on. I got to bank on every word he said. Hey, and you can’t make it an excuse, although in my condition, it could be an excuse in this respect; I don’t know how to look or where to look for a person that’s got discerning of spirits. I’m… I’m stuck. Maybe we could try, maybe that’s our fault.
(17) Every good gift and every perfect gift is from above, and cometh down from the Father of lights, [and] with whom is [neither] variableness, [nor] shadow of turning.
Then how can there be one mistake in discernment? How can there be one mistake in prophecy?
A man from Africa said he was a prophet. Brother Branham called him a prophet because he said he was a prophet. And he said he gets his prophecies one word at a time. Like what could be; rain, rain, rain, or something, car, car, car, look out.
So then he had this thing come; yellow mane lion, yellow mane lion, yellow mane lion. Oh, Brother Branham’s going to go to Africa and shoot a yellow mane lion. Well, Brother Branham went to Africa and didn’t… get a yellow mane lion.
And Brother Branham stood and said, “That was his prophecy, not mine.” So what did Brother Branham say, “When you prophesied false; pray the spirit off of you.” Did he pray it off of him?
You should have read the letter I read. I hope he prayed it off himself before he died. So I found him a cute little yellow mane lion, you pressed the foot and it drops around and I gave it to Brother… put in his tape…
“Can I have it?” I said, “I bought it for you. There’s your yellow mane lion.” daisying around I’m not nice. I admit I’m not nice. He laughed. Look, it was a joke. We had our jokes. It was… He’s a… he’s a… Brother Branham was… he was no sour puss.
Verse 18.
(18) Of his own will begat… us with the word of truth, [There you are.] that we should be a kind of first-fruits of his creatures.
Now look it, if you’re begotten with the Word of Truth: a dog is a dog, is a dog, is a dog, dog’s sperm. A horse is a horse, is a horse, horse sperm. Then if you’re begotten by a Word; it’s got to be Word, Word, Word, Word sperm. Right?
How in the world could we be a part of that Word and not be Word, Word, Word? See, James is only saying what Brother Branham said. He said, “You don’t start with a human cell and pile on a cat cell and a dog cell.
It’s human cell, human cell, human cell, or cat cell, cat cell, cat cell, or dog cell, dog cell, dog cell.” Right? Of course, the human cells we have today they’re a mess. That’s why we got to have a death and a resurrection. Now where…
Now he said,
(19) Wherefore, my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath:
Now just a minute, every good and perfect gift begotten by the Word, only the prophet can bring the Word. Right away be swift to hear a prophet. They never are. But they should be. Swift to hear the prophet: slow to say one word, you know something, I been… I was in meetings with Brother Branham and I’m going to tell you something.
I knew when Brother Branham actually did not catch a certain question; I would never open my mouth. I saw where men didn’t mean wrong but corrected him. I saw them fall. I don’t know what it means. I don’t know what it means.
They got off the Word. What am I trying to tell you? You are fooling with God when you fool with the prophet. You don’t go by vindication and say, “Well, Brother Vayle, I’ve got some, too.” You’ve got some, too, of what? Infallibility? Give me some; show me. No.
James 1:
(20) For the wrath of man worketh not the righteousness of God.
In other words, you get angry with the prophet, there’s no way that you will ever come to worship and serve God acceptably.
(21) Wherefore lay apart all filthiness and superfluity, [superfluity] of naughtiness, [That’s what he called those people that come against the prophet. Dare to change a word.]… and receive with meekness the engrafted word…
What do you graft into a plant? A hunk of dead wood? Nah, you graft in a living branch. You’re grafting something in there. In other words, you didn’t have the Word in the first place but it’s grafted in you. But listen, it’s going to take because it’s the Living Word of this hour for you that are a part of that word.
(21) …which is able to save your souls.
What do you mean ‘save you souls’? Without that Word your soul cannot make the correct decision. So Brother Branham is taking up with James here. And he said,
(22) …Be ye [here not] doers… be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves.
(23) For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass:
Now we’re supposed to look in the glass of the Word. Let’s read 2 Corinthians, the 3rd chapter.
(24) For… [beholding] himself… for he beholds himself, and goes… straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was.
(25) But whoso looketh into the perfect law of liberty, [Now you’re getting 2 Corinthians, the 3rd chapter.] and continues therein, he [is] not a forgetful hearer, but a doer of the work, this man shall be blessed in his deed.
Now, this man James is actually speaking of revelation. See, this is where Luther even got worked up; this is a straw book. Who needs it?
If you read this book correctly as I’m trying to show you this morning, from a vindicated prophet’s viewpoint he’s teaching, you can see this is not a straw book; this is a book of correctly understanding passive revelation and active faith, or a passive faith by revelation and an active faith which allows you to do certain things and not only allows you, but commands you and also let’s you know if you have a true revelation, this is the way you will go.
Because Paul said, “Let him that steal, stole no more.” Better, stole, steal no more. Let him labor with his hands doing that which is good, that he may have to have a lot of money, no, he may give to the poor.
Him that has it; he’s going to have something, so he doesn’t have to have people giving something; he’s going to start doing something. He’s going to be blessed.
(26) [But] if any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, [that] man’s religion is vain.
What is that? Just popping off at each other? He’s been talking about here, where the Word of God comes from. You say, “Well, here’s a vindicated prophet but I don’t agree.”
Like I told you about the preacher that came to me and he said, “Brother Vayle, you’re certainly wrong in writing this Church Age Book of Brother Branham, because Brother Branham does not believe this.”
I said, “You’re wrong, he’s the man that gave it to me.”
You know what it was on? Predestination. How are you going to get a Pentecostal to believe in predestination? You’re not going to get him. They’re legalist and falling away; they’re not going to do it.
They can’t do it. Not in them to do it. That’s their business, not mine. Look. He had to come back and apologize. That’s good.
But I’m going to tell you something flat; it’s guys like you that made me phone Brother Branham and wonder if I was wrong. Spent forty-five minutes on the telephone, my money, out of my pocket, and I’m poor as a church mouse.
And Brother Branham said, “That’s right, Lee.” I said, “Now hold it, Brother Branham, let’s not go so quick. Let me explain exactly what I am telling you, word by word.” I took every sentence, broke it down; explained it.
He said, “That’s right, Lee. And here’s some more scripture to go with it.” That’s how the Church Age Book was written, whether you know it or not. There’s doctrine in there that I didn’t know from a hill of beans.
And on my own, I’d of said, “Forget it.” I was a rabid believer that a goat could be turned into a sheep; we’re all reprobates, hallelujah, because of Jesus’ death, because God made a mistake, we all got set free some how and could be changed, transmuted, yeah.
Where do you think I got my theology? Out of the belfry with the bats, that’s where I got it from if you want to know the truth.
And he said, “That’s genuine seed of God.” Now this will go with a quote that I don’t have with me here, but Brother Branham said, “When you see God descend from the heavens and stand before groups of men and declare Himself as ever He did; and that’s the truth.”
And he goes on to let you know then further down the line, that that’s the evidence of you having received the baptism with the Holy Ghost. It doesn’t have a thing to do with what we produce or hope to produce or can produce with what God gives us to produce with.
It is something that God Himself is entirely obligated Himself and it’s a free gift of grace. Now look, the free gift of grace is what God gives us and we’re His children. But you know He has to bring us through the course of discipline to bring us up into character and He rewards us for that.
But what comes by grace doesn’t have one thing to do with what we are doing with what He gives us, in the lives of our training that we may develop into a character. The grace is we are His children and He gives it to us.
And if we are those who turn on Him through disobedience and want our own way, we can end up like the little girl that Brother Branham prayed for when she become pregnant, the baby died. She was full of septicemia and she was dying.
And Brother Branham prayed and she got completely, perfectly better but she knew she was going to die, because the Lord had just cleaned her up to take her home. Brother Branham didn’t know it; the mother didn’t know it; but the girl knew it.
When Brother Branham got angry with God; God wouldn’t talk to him about a month and then God finally said, “Now, let me explain something to you.” He gave him a vision of the girl in a boat; she was backslidden and she was… just about drowned, they got her on the third time up.
Now He said, “I could of taken her then but she wasn’t ready. She wasn’t cleaned up. I’ve cleaned her up and I took her home.” Now you understand grace. Grace doesn’t have a thing to do over here.
Sure it extends over there but the grace is that we are His children. He allowed us to come forth and He gives us all the power and everything necessary to walk in the Light.
And if we turn down that Word, there is where the trouble is. That’s what Eve did. I think Eve died quite a… quite a… few… well… how… when did Eve die? We don’t know but Adam didn’t live the full thousand.
There’s no record of her even living eight hundred years. Is there? We’d have to check the genealogy. They brought in death. See. See. There you are. So, so you’re look, watch what Brother Branham is saying from the standpoint of a vindicated prophet in the hour.
Don’t take any word, don’t take any paragraph, don’t take anything, please, don’t take anything until you lay it all out and the picture… or you’re going to get your cow eating grass off the top of the tree.
Now,
[42] The enemy joins the church and becomes very orthodox in a creed or something.… That’s discrepancy, anything that interferes with the strain of genuine Truth of God’s Word.
Now right back again; what in the name of common sense or the Name of God is genuine truth? There it is. There it is. Vindicated prophet. That’s it.
[43] And how do we know? We say, “Well, they, you’ve got a right to interpret it?” No, sir! No man has a right to interpret God’s Word. [See, that’s Bible. See. No private interpretation.] He’s His Own interpreter. [Now watch!] He promises it, then He does it, that’s the interpretation thereof. When He promised It, then He fulfills It, and that’s the interpretation of It. Anything contrary to God’s Word is a discrepancy! Absolutely!
Now what’s he talking about? The perfect Word of God, no adding and no taking. Now do you need to have It interpreted, “Thou shalt not steal”? Huh? No more than, “Thou shalt put your clothes on in the morning or get picked up naked and thrown in the hoosegow.”
No more than knowing if you don’t… say, hit the switch or the lights won’t come on. Oh, I got to have a revelation. I got to think… oh, oh, oh. Oh God.
I… you know, standing up here like a one act comedian is stupid, I know, but this is how it gets me right in here. And I’m ready to vomit and how… what… how… I can understand how God can vomit.
Comb your hair. Brush your teeth. Put on your socks. Eat your porridge. Thou shalt not lie. Thou shalt not steal. Honour thy father and thy mother. Look not upon the wine when it is red.
Anybody knows certain simple facts, period. But they don’t know revelation. Back in the first century, they had another Jesus, they had another Word, they had another Holy Spirit; then my God, what have we got at the end time
Get what he’s talking about. He’s talking about Judas and Jesus. He’s talking about a Seed of God and seed of the devil. He’s talking about a Word that’s true and a word that’s perverted. And he’s talking about those same two groups claiming it.
Where is the authority? Where is the right? Who is this person that the genuine seed of God can stand there like Paul? William Branham hallelujah because he had it! I’m not revering William Branham, I’m not waiting for him to come back and kiss his feet and say, “Oh brother.”
I could do that, he’d be worth having his feet kissed but he sure ain’t Jesus Christ. Whoo, oh. Good night. He’s not even one of the twenty-four elders. Now he could supersede them for all I know, don’t ask me what God’s going to do.
He didn’t tell me and I ain’t going to tell you if He doesn’t tell me. And if somebody did tell me, I wouldn’t think it was God because I’m not a prophet. And prophets don’t deal with that anyway. So get your minds settled. See. See.
Got a right to interpret it? Ho, ho. Listen He promises it. What does He promise? He promised a revelation at the end time. He promised the Seals would be broken. “Seal up the book.” Revelation 10 and 4, Revelation 20:10, don’t you dare seal the Book.
So some time between 10 and 4 and 20 and 10; it’s opened. Seven thunders thundered. Brother Branham declared that he was the one that did it. Yet they’re trying to tell you the Seventh Seal wasn’t opened.
The Seventh Seal wasn’t opened? Then it on the back of the book, the Books not opened. Huh. The Seventh Seal according to William Branham is Revelation 10:1 to 7. What are you going to do about that?
See, they don’t know what the prophet said. They don’t know and can’t put it together. They don’t go to their Bibles. They can’t do it. I’m not the only one that does it. But I learned years ago from the prophet, personally, this is how it is done. See?
No altered gene is going to open this book. That’s why Jesus was created; sperm and egg, and then that personal life of his which was lived for a while in Michael, as he led in the worship with Satan, and Satan was thrown out.
That was disbanded. And He came down in a human body, sperm and egg, created in Mary’s womb and came out; perfect gene, perfect strain, perfect truth. There He stood, the God of truth and no one believed him.
He said, “You’re looking at me, you’re seeing the Father.” William Branham said same thing. “You’re looking at me.” So the deity cult took that and ran: made him God. Didn’t make him God? That’s ridiculous. It was only God in the man doing the work.
[42] That’s discrepancy, anything that interferes with that strain of genuine Truth of the Word of God. [That’s discrepancy.]
In other words, interjects or takes away as today, in gene-altering. When they are altering genes, they’re doing it for a special purpose. Oh, for the good of mankind.
Oh, yes, yes. Oh, yes, definitely, we’re going to alter these genes and I’m going to tell you, it’ll cure diabetes, it will do this, it will do that. Like fun it will. Because that’s what the serpent said to Eve, “Oh, we’ll alter these genes.
Yeah, yeah. Oh, Eve, don’t worry, Eve, don’t worry, honey, we’ll just alter the genes.” They died. And the serpent got his body completely changed.
When God had given him a seed which was to go on and on in a resurrection, so if the body’s changed before the resurrection: how is he going to come up in the resurrection? No serpents, na, na, na. No serpent seed, no nothing. Think it over. Think it over.
[43] …how do we know? We say, “Well, they, you’ve got a right to interpret It.” But, no sir! [If he goes he on… Let’s go into this one and get it for sure.] He’s His Own interpreter.
He promises it, then He does it, that’s the interpretation… When He promised It… He fulfills It… that’s the interpretation of It. Anything contrary to God’s Word is a discrepancy! Absolutely!
In other words, Brother Branham explained this many times by, ‘a virgin shall bear a child’. Now we know that word in the Hebrew is ‘alma’ which is young lady and that’s true.
And Brother Branham really knew that in his heart because he said every man said, ‘That’s going to be my daughter.’ Why you know… that’s… wouldn’t be possible.
But some young… some woman, some time, would have that baby according to Scripture and the woman had it and nobody knew the processes until the angel came and the fulfilment was there and they said, “That is the Messiah.”
And this is what happened right here, William Branham, vindicated, publicly proved, he is that prophet and he was that prophet and will be that prophet that opened the Seals and bring us back to a perfect Word by the grace of Almighty God and you don’t need to worry about the interpretation of how you’re going to get to the place where you don’t need… you can’t add a word or take a word; you’re there now through the vindication of that man.
See, God does it; that’s the explanation. That’s the interpretation. That’s the revelation. That’s it. Now don’t try to go beyond that; just rejoice in and say, Thank you, Jesus.
Thank you, God, that this is how You came down and did it and Jesus on that throne up there guaranteeing, absolutely now we’re throne-ward bound. The bend in the road goes upward. All of these things you know, hey.
Well, anyway, next Sunday if we get back, that is, you never know what I’m going to do the way I am at my age or what God’s going to do with or for me, but anyway. We’ll go on next Sunday by the grace of God.
Let’s stand, let’s be dismissed at this particular time.
Gracious heavenly Father, want to thank You again for Your kindness and mercy which You showed toward us by allowing us to come together in Your house Father, and wherein we have a naughty spirit if there should be amongst us, or anything in our heart which is superfluous Lord, or overbearing or anything of ourselves Father, we pray You’ll take it away because we know Lord, as far as this Word is concerned, we don’t have one thing to do with It, but It has everything to do with us and we know Lord.
You gave It to us through a vindicated prophet and we know that we stand with Him in It, whether we understand It or not, we will stand and we will be… we will stand there at least friends of the bridegroom because we know this is a Bridegroom Message, absolutely, we believe that right now Elohim Himself, the One who came down in the Garden as Brother Branham said, “That same One down here again with the book of redemption opening it up and revealing all these things to us, the same Pillar of Fire.”
We rejoice in that Lord, and know it, but as to knowing You and this Mess… and how specific and how to the depth of the essentiality, those are things Lord, that worry us because we feel that even at this point, we are not so thoroughly inured in and up Lord, in the depth of the revelation where it is… it is expanding and literally red-hot and it is our life Lord, where… not running around screaming and trying to make anybody believe but this is our life.
This is… this is it. And we know that we’re part way there because we’ve exceeded to it, Lord, we agree, we know It is right, we’re not looking anywhere else except to It, but we would love to have a greater depth of sincerity and oneness as the prophet did.
Maybe we’re never going to have it; I don’t know Lord, but I would ask this morning for myself and the people here, that we would come further down the road where we’d have that… that… real sincerity and the depth of the oneness of it as the prophet had it, all ness of it as he quoted from the Psalms, “As my hart panteth after thee, O God, as the hart panteth after the water brook.”
The hart wounded and bleeding, trying to get to the water of Life where… knowing that this is going to fill up the blood vessels and bring on almost like a resurrection, bring us into the thing which we were made for.
And Lord, we are at that river; we are partaking of it, we got to be because it’s word upon word and it’s getting us we believe richer and sweeter and clearer and everything Lord is… it’s just there before us and now Lord, let it not be just there before us, let us begin to ingest It and come down within us until… until we’re just Word people.
Not crazy. And not cultish but just Word people, living Word, life of the Word, because we have seen the true revelation and the life and the light is both here. And we are here Lord, we know it’s a tremendous hour, the great epiphany.
And we want to… by Your grace Lord, we share in it and get deeper and deeper until one day that little last heartbeat, little last wink of the eye, little last step we take, the little flutter of the hands, that sweep going over a little Bride that’s going to join with the resurrected ones and then go on to the Rapture and the Wedding Supper.
Father, heal the sick amongst us. Bless every heart, sanctify every heart, O God, to the end that it’s so sanctified people by Your Word, not by works. Works, we know, are good, Lord. We’re happy with works.
Would to God there were more of them, but Lord, we know the secret lies in the revelation, believing this Word that Abel believed in and Cain turned aside. So we’re leaving it all in Your hands now.
Unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God, be all honour, glory and power through Jesus Christ our Lord, Amen.
‘Take the Name of Jesus with you.’
