Spoken Word is Original Seed; Book 2 #12

Opening And Closing Of Virgin Womb; Believing Mind
#3893 /

Heavenly Father, we’re very grateful for the opportunity of coming together in Your Presence, knowing that You are present to us and we are present to You on the grounds that the Bride now has the Headship and leadership of God Almighty Himself, who is about to completely restore a people.

Even to the point of glorification which they had not quite attained to in the Garden, but will now attain at this moment’s coming upon the earth. We know Lord, that this is true.

We stand awed in Your Presence and we know Lord, that it’s wonderful to be in Your Presence and hear from You, to know we have a vindicated Word which is truly authoritative of You being the authority, for You wrote It with the power to bring It to pass, and we’re grateful for that.

We just ask You to further reveal Your wonderful Word to us and may it be what we desire to be which is meat and drink to our souls, and the transformer and the transfigure of our bodies coming right to that day Lord, when the dead as it were come out of the earth.

We know that’s more or less a figure of speech, but realize Lord, that they’ll be brought back here and they shall take on forms of glorification like unto Yours and all.

Then we’ll go to the Wedding Supper of the Lamb, and that be a marvelous time, and we know Lord, that this is true, because it has been proven to be true.

And may we be a part of It, and Lord, press into It, and love It, and realize It as never before in Jesus’ Name, we pray. Amen.

You may be seated.

01

Now we’re onto number 12 here, in the 2nd message of ‘The Spoken Word is Original Seed.’

And in the past several discourses, or discussions on this message, we have seen that as Eve had a choice to receive the Word of God as her ultimate, or to receive the changed Word of God as her ultimate, so did the church under Paul, that started out as a virgin of the Word in 2 Corinthians, chapter 11.

Now we’re going to go there to show you that this is exactly the truth and what Brother Branham was talking about.

He said, “Before Adam could get to Eve, she had already come from behind the Word of God, been thoroughly beguiled, seduced.”

And what did she bring forth? She brought forth serpent seed. Now, what should she have brought forth? She should not have brought forth serpent seed. She brought forth death instead of life.

She was to have brought forth life, so the whole thing was completely messed up by the changing of the Word. So, Brother Branham quotes this many times.

02

In the 2nd verse.

2 Corinthians 11:2

(02) For I am jealous over you with [a] godly jealousy:

Now remember, the law of jealousy is that if a husband suspects the wife of fooling around on him, having cohabitation, cohabiting with another person, he doesn’t know that she has but he gets very suspicious.

And then she has to be brought into the temple and various processes have been gone… have to be gone through.

And if she has been then, with another man, and she might not even be pregnant, there’s a terrible condition of the swelling of the belly, the rotting of the bones, and all of those things that take place.

And you will notice, right today under the… if a person is dying of malnutrition, actually starving, the stomach is distended, you can see the bones coming through and the flesh.

And we got… what you’re looking at here is a picture of AIDS again; the bones rotting, starvation taking over the body, and actually rotting while they’re walking.

And everything, you can see everything pictured is what’s happening to this false church.

03

Now remember, brother/sister, almost every war that’s going on today is a holy war. Now over there in Somalia, they’re fighting a little bit of political war, but remember, they’re mostly Muslims over there.

In Europe you got the Muslims against the Christians. And now you got the terrorists, the Muslims coming over here. Well, I’ll make this statement very boldly from the pulpit.

I don’t care if there is two billion Muslims and only one billion Christians, the Christians will murder the Muslims, they’ll knock them out.

Because this in the Bible has nothing to do with the Muslims and the Taoists and the Confucius, and the Hadhrami’s, and the baloney bunch.

It’s talking of those that bear the Name of the Lord God in vain. It’s Christian religion, so never forget it.

04

And remember, till the very end, communism and democracy exist side by side, and there’s going to be the constant pull. That’s why in America, these idiots here in Congress can’t waken up to the fact that Russia’s destroyed right now because of socialism.

We’re going more and more into it. And yet at the same time nobody with an ounce of brains doesn’t realize that capitalism, by itself, isn’t going to work; you got too many greedy guts in there.

They don’t care if the fellow next door’s starving, as long as they get their big hambone and turkey. And they’ll watch them starve and have fun watching them. So just lighten up.

05

Now here’s what you’re looking at. This woman was espoused, to a husband, she doesn’t get to him. And she’s already been seduced and pregnant by somebody else.

Now, watch exactly the words here, because Paul is doing, referring to Eve, and Brother Branham is following in the same footsteps of the apostle Paul.

2 Corinthians 11:2

(02) …for I have espoused you to one husband,

See, but he said, “I know you’re fooling around.” How did He know it?

The 20th chapter, of Acts; he said, “There are people sitting right here among you, they’re nothing but wolves in sheep clothing.” No, this is a word for me as well as for you.

When are we going to smarten up about these nice people? These nice people? Oh God. Spiritual murderers are not nice people. Want your souls hung over hell? Be my guest. It’s yours; not mine. It’s mine; not yours.

Every man on his own two feet. So here’s this fellow here coming around this slick chick, this slick bird, and he’s got to this woman.

06

Now how was it done?

2 Corinthians 11:3

(03) But I fear, lest by any means,…

Now he said, “I don’t know how many different ways this, the way the devil is going to attack you to get you off the Word, that’s not the point.”

There’s many ways he can do it. He came to Jesus. “If you be the Son of God, and I happen to know you’re hungry, change these stones into bread.”

Jesus said, “It is written, man shall not live by bread alone.” In other words, the spiritual must come ahead of the physical. Then whatever you do in the physical if it’s spiritually based, it’s got to come out right. See.

Because there is a physical, there’s got to be. So what did Jesus do down the road? The devil wasn’t there at all, but there was a wedding. So what does He do?

He by-passed the process of turning the grapes into wine, so he just took some water, instead of putting the water into the earth, and into the grapes, and then into process of fermentation, He just… whatever Word he spoke, and the water was turned into wine.

07

Now the devil can us every trick in the book to get you off the Word but…

2 Corinthians 11:3

(03) But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty,… [His smartness, his shrewdness, his handling of the Word of God, and my, he can deal in science and everything else.]

He beguiled Eve. And that’s absolutely, got her pregnant, completely fooled and into a place of intercourse. And here she is now stuck, out of wedlock and belonging to another man on top of it.

2 Corinthians 11:3

(03) …so your minds should be corrupted from the simplicity that is in Christ.

So what is he telling you? He’s telling you there is a womb of the mind and if you let that get pregnant with anything other than the Word of God, you are an adulterer, or you’re an adulteress. You’re in adultery. Then what you will bring forth will not be the Word of God period.

08

Now remember, the Word of God is sown in the human race, and there’s a period of gestation.

And in the Seven Church Ages there’s been a sowing, and need no age outside the last age will bring forth that child, that man child which we’re talking now in terms of Jesus Christ Himself bringing forth in flesh before the burning of Sodom.

So what does God do? He has to get a Sarah. And that Sarah is a woman who is completely barren. Her womb is shut up until God opens it. That’s how God grants repentance.

You can’t believe unless God grants you repentance. You can’t do it. God has to grant it. So the opening of the womb comes at the end time. And she’s pregnant by Abraham to whom was given the original promise.

We’ll see more of that as time goes on. The main thing is to understand what we are looking at here. See?

09

In the past several discussions on this message, we have seen that as Eve had a choice to receive the Word of God as her ultimate or to receive the changed Word of God which would then be the ultimate. And Satan then would be her mentor, her fashioner, her designer.

So did the church under Paul that started out as a virgin of the Word in 2 Corinthians 11. A true virgin is one exactly like the mother of Jesus, “Be it unto me according to thy Word.”

Or “I take your Word as truth and light, no questions, or conditions or sensations, just the Word.”

Now I’m going to tell you something; you better believe that that Word had better be authoritative and It better be vindicated and Mary certainly must have known vindication, or she never would have said, “Be it unto me according to Thy Word.”

She would have said, “Listen, slicker.”

10

Hey now if you don’t think that’s right, let’s go to the Book of Revelation. The 2nd chapter,

Revelation 2:1-2

(01) Unto the [messenger] of the church [which is in] Ephesus; These things saith he that holdeth the seven stars in his right hand, who [walks] in the midst of the seven golden candlesticks;

(02) I know [your] works, [your] labour, [your] patience, how [you can’t] bear them which are evil:

Now those are the worshippers that worship outside the Word like Cain and all the time pretend they’re with the Word, because they can read the Bible. But they can’t divide it.

Revelation 2:2

(02) …and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them [to be] liars:

11

Yet this virgin church got fooled. Now, let’s understand this now, at the end time there’ll be a virgin church that can’t be fooled, that won’t be fooled, that she will take the Word of God and stick with it, completely pregnant by that Word, the mind entirely shut up.

You won’t have a preacher and a guy sitting in the pew that wants to run everybody with his insanity, and tell you, “Well, I know enough now, if this ain’t the real thing, I’ll know the real thing.” That is a lie. Your mind is not shut-up; it is still open.

Thank you, Brother Pierson. I’m sick and tired of asininity. The constant phone calls I get. I don’t mind bearing my cross, it’s very easy at this time, except for a few aches and pains, because I’ll stand with this and die with It.

But I’m hated around the world, because I built myself a house, and I won’t come out to shake hands and say, “Come in, come in, and bring your crud with you.”

Not interested. You might be, but I’m not. I’m going to tell you something; those that thought they were so clever are going to find themselves starving if they’re not starving already.

I want to tell you, you find one more preacher in the world that takes word for word like I’m doing. You go ahead, find him, and I’ll go sit under him, maybe. Just maybe.

12

A true virgin is one exactly like the mother of Jesus. All right. You just can’t say, “Well, she took the Word.” The thing is why did she take the Word? Read the genealogies. She’s in it.

She’s traced all the way back to God Himself, because before there was a male or a female there had to be a life. And before there’s an ‘X’ or ‘Y’ chromosome, there’s got to be something to which the ‘X’ and the ‘Y’ is attached. Oh boy.

Do you know that Jesus was elect? Peter says, “Elect.” Where is that? 1 Peter? I don’t know if it’s 1 Peter or not, I know it’s in Peter.

If I don’t I’ll run back and get my concordance in a hurry. I don’t know where it is otherwise. What’s it? I thought it was in 1 Peter, the 1st chapter.

1 Peter 1:1-2

(01) Peter, an apostle of Jesus Christ, to the strangers scattered [abroad and so on]…

(02) Elect according to the foreknowledge of God [and] sanctification of the Spirit,…

You say, “Well, that just means us.” No, it doesn’t. He was elect. Trace His genealogy. There’s a natural election; there’s a spiritual. This woman was naturally elect based upon the spiritual.

And she took the Scripture, because it was Scriptural that a virgin could bear a child but nobody understood what it really meant, and how it would be. But notice how quickly she assented to the Scripture.

13

“Well, I’ll just stick around and see if that Scripture comes to pass. And you know, Brother Vayle, I’ve been here a long time now, and my father taught me certain things.”

Yes, my father did, because he had a calling and he didn’t obey it, of course, and God didn’t clean him up and take him out of this world, and he lives eighty years of age or better.

And yet He took Brother Branham’s brother out of this world, for not obeying and going to preach. Come on, I’m sitting… you sitting in the pulpit, are you smart if you got an ounce of brains, are you listening to me? Can you understand anything this morning?

That what Brother Branham said was THUS SAITH THE LORD, is God Himself speaking. Well, hey, where are we? We’re thinning out. Yeah. Yeah. Understand this a hundred percent.

This woman, elect, didn’t say, “Well, hey, what a visitation. If this doesn’t work out, I got the key when the real one comes.”

You’re here this morning; you’re supposed to be virgin womb Christians. I wonder if a real slick guy could come in here and upset your apple cart.

Well, I’ll tell you one thing, if I’m elect and I trust I am; he said I was, I’m seed; if I’ve got a gift of teaching like Brother Branham had a gift of healing, nobody wants it, so that could let you all out, maybe, but it doesn’t really mean that.

Just anybody come in here and fool you people I’ve been a complete hundred percent failure, except for one thing, you’ve been a complete hundred percent non-seed. If somebody this morning took a walk, would you walk with him?

Or say, “I’m going to stay with the Word.” Now look, we’re not playing church anymore, we really believe this is the end of the whole thing. I knew that man very, very well, ate with him; slept with him, slept in his home, in motels.

14

You can do what you want, but I’m going to tell you something, that man had something that nobody else had, because he never ever made a mistake and there’s nobody living who doesn’t make mistakes when it comes to prophecy, unless it’s God Himself talking through the brass doorknob, or as He chose, a man.

What am I trying to tell you? If you haven’t got it, I’m telling you plain and simple, you either believe this message when you heard It or you’re still sitting here picking your spiritual noses. And you still don’t know if you really believe or not.

Are you here this morning, stuck with gum on the seat of your trousers? If you’re not spiritually speaking, I got news for you, you’re not born again; you don’t believe this message.

You say, “Brother Vayle, I don’t believe it the way you preach It.”

Well, you come up and prove me wrong. You take this word for word like I’m doing and see where I’m wrong, I’m quoting the womb of the mind and this is exactly where Brother Branham got it.

He didn’t get it out of thin air. You can’t come as a prophet and deny another prophet, contradict another prophet, or you can’t add to him in such a way as to cause a confusion.

15

Let me just tell you a little bit about Brother Branham again, and we’ll bring you back, I’ll read you some more.

Remember, this morning, I told you Brother Branham himself did not use the name Jehovah as Sanctifier. It’s true, he didn’t.

But you know what he said, “There’s a further sanctification in the Millennium.”

The man couldn’t be wrong if he tried because he’s only a brass doorknob. That’s all he is, a brass doorknob.

What’s a brass doorknob? It’s something entirely inanimate that a hand reaches out, turns and opens the door.

What more do you want? He’s a brass doorknob. You say, “What about gold?” No! It’s brass, judgment.

I don’t think Brother Branham would feel bad if he heard me preach this morning, he just might even be doing it. I wouldn’t sell him short.

Say, “I take Your Word as truth and light, no questions, or conditions or sensations, just Word.”

She didn’t need anything else. If all things are made by the Word and all things are maintained by the Word are you going to tell me you need something else than the Word?

She said, “I take your Word.” And the Word brought forth a creation of a sperm and an egg, but don’t forget sperm and egg of itself is nothing but dry chemicals unless there’s a life. Whose life was it? God’s own life.

16

Now before we read further, we might also note that Brother Branham spoke of Sarah and Abraham. We note that after twenty-five years of promise, and various contrived means, Sarah still did not bear the son Isaac.

It is evident that Abraham believed, but Sarah gave up. And Abraham, like Adam, went along with the gag for awhile, because he took Hagar.

And of course, Sarah pulled a very clever… well, you know, people are human. Now this is… ridiculous.

She said, “I’ll have the girl bear the baby across my knees and that will be a little charade and that will be my baby.” Ho, ho, ho.

Oh, brother, you talk about weird and sick. And the church is in the same boat. See? She’s Bride now. Let’s get this flat, she’s the Bride, just the same, and she’s obligated, she’s got to do it.

Now something’s got to happen to make that woman turn around and give up her charades and get right back to the Word of promise.

Because she of herself can’t do it, no matter how many other promises are there, how many years of history, how many years of anything, something’s got to happen to her personally and only then can it take place. See?

17

Now Abraham was struggling for twenty-five years; Jesus has been going through Seven Church Ages and two thousand years.

Then in Genesis 19, just before the burning of Sodom, Sarah who had entered a period of unbelief was jolted into virgin Word faith as God discerned her thoughts.

And Brother Branham said, “That’s the last sign the world sees.” That’s the sign that wakes the Bride up.

“Oh, Brother Vayle, I believe this great healing thing, how about that great thing there, I believe that great thing there.”

Listen, you don’t even know anything, until you know the Word of God that’s vindicated. Well, let me see. We got time. We ain’t going nowhere.

Who knows where we’re going except in the Rapture by the grace of God, and that’s going to be grace, I can tell you right there.

If we’re going to believe here, I’m going to tell you, absolutely, it’s the 18th and the 19th chapter. It’s the 18th we got to go, this is where the visitation is.

This is what the Pentecostals all quote, Hebrews 13:8.

Little Zachary, he said, “Do you want to hear my verse of Scripture?”

I said, “I sure do.”

He said, “All right, Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever.”

I said, “That’s it, son, that’s the best one there is. That’s the one. You got her.” See, all right, here we are, a little child shall lead them. All right.

18

And it says in the 9th verse.

Genesis 18:9-10

(09) And they said unto him, Where is Sarah thy wife? And he said, Behold, in the tent.

(10) And he said, I will certainly return unto thee according to the time of life; and, lo, Sarah thy wife shall have a son. And Sarah heard it in the tent door, which was behind him.

Now every circumstance conspired against her having that child. She wasn’t only stricken, she was well stricken. She wasn’t only old, she was very old. She wasn’t only tired; she was bone tired. She was dead tired, hardly mop the floor anymore.

Genesis 18:11-12

(11) [And long ago]… it ceased to be with Sarah after the manner of women. [No more menses; all over.]

(12) Therefore [she said, “Ha, ha, ha. Phttt.” She said, “I never had a baby when I was able to have a baby; it was just an act of pleasure. So she reduces it to an act of pleasure again, she said, and she says right here.] After I am waxed old shall I have pleasure, my lord being old also?

People get offended. Brother Branham said, “Children are only born because of sexual desire.” And you’re going to tell me different.

Oh God, have pity on anybody sitting here that is so marvelously spiritual. You are a phoney, two-bit phoney. It tells you right here.

19

Now let’s keep reading.

Genesis 18:13

(13) And the LORD said unto Abraham, [Why] did Sarah laugh, saying, Shall I of a surety…

In other words, after all these years the sure thing, the sure thing, you’re going to have a baby, you’re going to have a baby, now years after she’s all dried up.

As Brother Branham said, “The milk veins had withered. Breasts sagging. She got wrinkles. God knows how many. Maybe, no teeth left even. Poor withered up old gal.” Huh!

Oh, the sure promise, the sure promise, the sure promise. I want to ask you a question. When the real thing was right there to the complete fulfillment; did she recognize it then? No!

So you sit here this morning and tell, “Well, Brother Vayle, when the real thing comes I’ll recognize it.” You wouldn’t recognize God if you met Him in your porridge. That was said by an old Scotsman. I wouldn’t either.

I’m keep reading.

20

Listen, hey, we believe the Bible or we don’t believe the Bible. I know this is tough. This is bedtime stories. “One day we will know the real thing: yeah, yeah, yeah.”

This is why I am so encouraged to know there’s further sanctification in the Millennium, because man do I need it.

I criticize the… Abraham, I mean, old Moses, I said, “My merciful God, Moses had forty years to mess around in, and boy, did he mess around, he had forty years to learn and boy did he learn. And he had forty years to come back and make good.”

I said, “Merciful God, in a hundred and twenty years, I’d still be messing around.” I’m so happy to know in the Millennium; I ain’t going to be messing around.

The very thing I’ve loved and esteemed and wanted and knew could be so right, I’m going to have it. Why? Because it’s in my mind. And if it’s in my mind, it’s out there to answer me and it’s the Word of God, because the prophet told me because I asked him.

21

Genesis 18:

Genesis 18:13-14

(13) …Shall I of a surety bear a child, [when I] am old? [“Ho, ho, ho, ho,” she said.]

(14) [And God said,] Is any thing too hard for the LORD?

If I hadn’t brought you this far, Sarah, it would have looked like a lead pipe cinch, but He said, now it looks like nothing could ever be.

Brother Branham’s gone. Fifty-seven varieties of understanding this and that; hatred, everything else in the camp; deceit, moneymaking, grabbing: you talk about a mess.

Genesis 18:14

(14) Is any thing too hard for the LORD?

22

Now Brother Branham said, “The last sign, the last sign was discernment.” Okay, shall we go to discernment? Yes, we shall.

And we shall find it in the Book of Hebrews. It will be in the 4th chapter, the 12th verse.

And he’s talking about the rest which is picturing the Millennium. And we’re to labor to enter into it. Gird up the loins of our minds. Don’t get deceived. Watch your step.

Hebrews 4:11-13

(11) Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief. [You that are troubled, rest with us, when the Lord Jesus shall be revealed from heaven. Okay.]

(12) For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

(13) Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

23

Now hold it. When was that ever done? Was never done to the Gentiles, the Hebrews had it, we never had it.

Brother Branham said, “He’s obligated to come back in the form of the Holy Spirit, God Himself, and do it.” And He’s done it.

And that’s the sign right today, you have your last sign, and if you look for something else, let me tell you this, you are not pregnant with the Word of God, so don’t talk to me.

Now if you want to meet with a guy in a motel, like he did, and a preacher from overseas, and the preacher sit right there to destroy this church; go ahead, be my guest.

Let me tell you this: I’m meeting you before the White Throne now, I will see you before the White Throne now, and one of us is going to be in trouble, if not all of us.

Now you don’t like that, do you some of you people? You’re too Pentecostal yet. You’re still sitting on a fence. You ain’t got no fence to sit on, kid, been knocked from underneath you and you don’t even know it.

I’m preaching Presence. I’m preaching the Judge. I’m preaching time and eternity have blended. I’m preaching the world, the Bride, has got its last sign, there isn’t another one.

Oh, how they love the great healing, how they love this, how they love that, but Brother Branham discerning. Oh, that blew the gifts plumb out of the water, and Brother Branham stand there and discerning.

And they say, “Oh my God, my God, why don’t you just use the gift of healing. Just use the gift of healing. Just use the gift of healing. Get this discerning stuff out of the way.”

Shows where you mind is. Shows where my mind is. Why don’t we all go home and commit suicide? You still got to meet Him. Death isn’t going to stop you meeting Him.

Death just means one thing; any chance you might have had to do anything at all with any part of yourself, body, mind, and soul, spirit, it’s all over.

24

Now I’ll read it again.

Hebrews 4:12-13

(12) For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any two-edged sword, piercing even to dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.

(13) Neither is there any [creation or] creature… not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and open unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.

When this happens; you’re stuck and you know you’re dealing with God. “Ah, Kentucky hillbilly, ah, bird that believed in one God. He’s got all puffed up, because he had a great ministry. Yeah, we had Thus Saith the Lord, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.” I know, I know.

Hey, look, I don’t hate really, really hate, but then I do, then again I do. Because I hate that kind of junk. Now you tell me what I’m supposed to do?

Now if I’m neutral, I’m still against It, because you can either sow for Him or against Him. Neutrality is out of the picture.

Now I may be hated because the way I teach, that’s part of the game. I don’t hate the people. It might sound like I do, that pull all these tricks off, but I’m not going to stand back and just let them sit there from now on and not expose it.

Because I want to tell you, I would sooner catch them with women in a harem committing adultery than what they’re trying to do with the souls of men and women, because one is just a body incidence, and that’s where it stops, but the rest goes on and on.

25

Then in Genesis 19, just before the burning of Sodom, Sarah who had entered a period of unbelief was jolted into virgin Word faith as God discerned her thoughts.

Now this ministry of Brother Branham and this discernment, shows you positively, that if God can read everybody’s mind and Brother Branham stood there and I saw him, and he would take every spirit under control in that building.

There could be five thousand or five hundred thousand, it didn’t matter. It wasn’t that he read everybody; he didn’t need to.

But you couldn’t hide if you tried, proving now, positively, you are in position to have a virgin mind, and when you receive that Word, it’s closed up and you will make it, because you’re pregnant.

The woman is a passive vessel. And she’s got what it takes to bring forth a baby. And so is the Bride, she is a passive vessel to receive the Word of God. That’s why I call it passive, or revelatory faith.

The gestation is nothing that automatically goes on, because it’s the Word in her, which is God willing and doing of His own good pleasure.

So I believe today, we have a virgin that has come out of Laodicea, by reason of the Appearing and the vindication of whom that appearance is.

26

So we’re going to start back on page 29, it’s about Abraham and Sarah. You’re going to have the baby. Well, after twenty-five years, my goodness, me.

[90-3]  “Well, God said so. That’s it. That’s it.”

[91-1]  There’s your virgin; there she is. Not only to baptism, but anything else, the rest of the Word. [Every single word.] So, what… This was both physical and spiritual with Eve. First and any time…

Now, I’ve told you and ask you this morning, sisters, to forgive me so I can mention that… Any time that a woman takes the wrong step… I’m talking about Christ and the Bride now. But anytime a woman takes a wrong step, she has to first receive it in her mind.

She’s got to think about it or she’s raped. Yeah. She’s got to think about it. She’s got to be propositioned or desiring it. She’s going by her feelings or what have you, which we’re not fussing about.

[91-1]  …anytime a woman takes a wrong step, (I’m talking about Christ and the Bride now,) a woman takes a wrong step, she has to first receive it in her mind. That’s right. Some slicker has to persuade her, and she listens to it against her own better judgment.

Now doesn’t say her own carnal desires; she knows better.

Then the act is committed. So first, it hit… Satan hit Eve’s mind, and in the womb of her mind she doubted God’s Word; then came the actual act.

And that’s true. That goes for men and women both, we’re talking in the spiritual.

[91-2]  And the only way we can ever be borned again is first in the womb of the mind receive the Word, and then the Spirit comes on top of that and brings it. There you are. That’s what does it. That’s the real Gospel teaching, brother. I believe if Saint Paul was standing today he’d teach the same thing in this hour. 

27

All right, let’s find out if Paul would teach the same thing. We go to,

Romans 1:15-16

(15) So, as much as in me is, I am ready to preach the gospel to you that are at Rome also. [Now this gospel he did not receive from man, he was not taught it by man, he got it straight from God Himself.]

(16) For I am not ashamed of the [good news of the] gospel of Christ: for it is the power of God unto salvation to every one that believeth; to the Jew first, and also to the Greek.

Now before you believe It, it says in Romans 10, you got to hear It. So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the Word of God, doesn’t come any other way.

So there’s no salvation under heaven granted unto man, but what is the true revealed Word of God in whatever measure It takes at that particular time and for that purpose; can’t be otherwise.

Romans 1:17

(17) For therein is the righteousness of God revealed from faith to faith: as it is written, The just shall live by faith. [See? All right, he’s right on that count.]

28

Where do you go next? You go to,

1 Corinthians 1:17

(17) For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel:…

Now remember, water baptism is a part of the gospel. But there were those who went crazy baptizing.

So it didn’t matter about the Word and you got the same thing right today in the churches, “Oh, get baptized, get baptized, get baptized,” and that’s it. Well, it isn’t it.

Water baptism is a part of It; and it’s allowed, justified, demanded by the very gospel that’s preached.

1 Corinthians 1:17-20

(17) …[He] sent me not to baptize, [certainly not] but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect.

(18) For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God.

(19) For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.

(20) Where is the wise? where is the scribe? where is the disputer of this world? hath not God made foolish the wisdom of this world?

29

You got all these scientists; “There’s no God, there’s no God,” and William Branham come on the scene, discern thoughts, not one word ever fail.

They go around and say, “See now, the man has a psychic power of some description. You see, it can be scientifically explained. It’s just that… we’ll get it down the road. But there’s really nothing to it.” That was Walker’s vision or dream he had. See, they can’t get it.

1 Corinthians 1:22-25

(22) …the Jews require a sign, the Greeks seek after wisdom:

(23) But we preach Christ crucified, unto the Jews a stumbling-block, unto the Greeks foolishness;

(24) But unto them which are called, both Jews and [Gentile] both [Jew] and Greek, Christ the power of God, and the wisdom of God.

(25) Because the foolishness of God is wiser than men; and the weakness of God is stronger than men.

So, all right. Brother Branham is correct in what he says here.

30

Now, also, you must remember, that Brother Branham’s obligated to preach the apostle Paul according to 2 Thessalonians 1:10.

“When he shall come to be glorified in his saints and be admired in all them that believe, because our testimony among you was believed in that day.”

In other words, the very Word of Paul that preached in that hour is preached in this hour. It’s the same dynamic, perfect faith, but this time without corruption. Why? Because He’s coming to be glorified, there isn’t a chance for her to get pregnant.

There isn’t time for her to get pregnant by somebody else. This is the great mystery of the Seventh Seal, and the Seals, they can never be duplicated. Why? Because nobody knew what was under those Seven Thunders. Nobody knew.

And Brother Branham preached it through vindication, it’s right on a tape. Let anybody come, the Frisbees, all the Pentecostals come, there’s no way, and the Shelley’s and all these birds rising up, there’s no way that you can change this Word and defile a Bride, let them come.

Let the Perry Green’s write the prefaces and send the books around the world, everybody get happy, happy, happy. Oh, because they were smart to know enough, they saw enough in Brother Branham to know the real thing when it came along.

They didn’t believe Brother Branham. Set the church in order, had no use for it.

31

All right.

[91-3]  What were the results with her? [With Eve.] Physical and spiritual death. What are the results of those who accept the other words, [that’s somebody else’s, Satan’s fooling,] it goes into this frolic today that they have? Both physical and spiritual death.

[And Brother Branham just puts it off like a dance of death, you know.] Both body and spirit shall be annihilated, and be no more. That’s exactly right.

Now I want you to notice something here, brother/sister, that you are dealing with this period of time under the Seventh Seal when God and His prophet are here, both of them vindicated, the absolute Word of God, that goes to the Bride, and distinguishes her from everybody else, it says right here, at this time that…

[91-3]  …both body and spirit shall be annihilated, and be no more. That’s exactly right.

32

That’s why you find in Malachi, the 4th chapter; he refers to the White Throne, of the fire leaving neither root nor branch.

This is exactly the 3rd chapter of Matthew, “His fan is in his hand, thoroughly purge his floor, gather the wheat in the garner, burn up the chaff with unquenchable fire.”

You are looking at the Judge. The process has started. Listen to me! The process has started; it’s continuing now and will go right to the White Throne.

Do you people understand what I am saying? Then why aren’t preachers preaching what I am preaching? Why aren’t they preaching the Judge?

Why don’t they preach the Judge stands at the door is the same One in James 5, that is over there in Revelation 3? Oh God, they got two different people in two different places, and three different trumpets and four different trumpets. God knows what they got.

[91-4]  Note, Mary’s womb–Mary’s womb, the physical mind (See?), was virgin womb. Why? [It was a believing womb. See? A believing mind is a virgin womb.] Now, Note, Mary’s womb—Mary’s womb, the physical mind (See?), was a virgin womb. Why? She believed God’s Word.

33

And in believing God’s Word what happened? Her mind became a place whereby the life of that Word and whatever that Word was and all Word is not the same Word as to what It is saying and for what time It is saying it. We’re talking about the womb to bring forth Christ.

In other words, bring Him back to earth here. Now look! The baby cannot be without the woman. It takes a woman to have a baby. Now she’s got to get pregnant.

Now, the Bride gets taken off the earth in chapter 4, and comes back in chapter 19. And who is she coming with? You know who she is coming with; she’s bringing forth that Son right on earth here. It’s going to take a virgin womb, the virgin mind to do it.

Now she believed God’s Word; that’s how she was a virgin.

[91-4]  No matter how much anybody criticized, how many things somebody else said, that did not have one thing to do with it; she believed God’s Word regardless.

34

Now listen! It’s the Word that came forth under discernment. I want to ask you a question. Did Brother Branham discern? Was he the only one that could discern? Thank you, you’re getting a little smarter now, I should have the roof raised on that one.

You bet your sweet life, when anybody else tries it; it shows that he is false. I got living proof it can be done. Oh, you come against reality, you lay it down like I laid it down and different ones laid it down. I couldn’t discern if you paid me. I wouldn’t know anything.

Brother Branham alone had that gift. See? It’s the gift of the Judge, because it means to judge between. And when you judge between, you rightly divide the Word of God and it can’t be done any other way. All right.

[91-4]  No matter how much anybody criticized, that didn’t have one thing to do with it; she believed God’s Word regardless. See?

[91-5]  Oh, I wish I could just get that over. Are you getting it? See, first, it was her mind.

35

Now notice! You just don’t receive the Word of God, because It’s the Word of God. In other words, it’s written in this Book, you say that’s the Word of God.

We’re talking now in the terms of Paul, who said that he was vindicated with the signs and wonders. And Brother Branham was, just like Moses, just like Jesus.

And Brother Branham did not stand with Jesus, he stood with Moses and with Paul.

Jesus stood alone because all the others were only a part of the Word. He’s the whole and entire Word, and He was the Savior and everything else included.

Now, you’ll notice…

[91-5]  See, first, it was her mind.

36

Now vindication is not argued.

1 Corinthians 14:36-37

(36) What? 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, he’s] spiritual, let him acknowledge the things that I write unto you are the commandments of the Lord.

Paul stood there and he said, “I cannot be judged, because I’m vindicated, and because I’m vindicated and cannot be judged, I’m only vindicated and can’t be judged, because of the Word.”

Vindication does not judge the Word; it believes the Word. Now that’s a tough one. I had to go through that. Brother Branham’s sermons just literally scared the spiritual physical pants off me.

I might as well of said, “God, merciful God, if he said this and he meant this thing like I’ve been taught all alone, then forget it. I can blow my brains out; it won’t do any good. But at least I won’t be getting into further mischief. Just go kill myself.” Why try?

And when I faced it; he wasn’t saying that at all. See? You got to… be real in your soul and say, “I can’t help it, he said it, I’ve got to face it.”

And you can also walk away if you don’t want to face it. But you face it, you’re going to find out he’s not saying what you think he said, many, many, many times, because it’s a matter of grace.

37

Vindication cannot be argued with. Now when you don’t argue with vindication, you take the mechanics. And when you take the mechanics which will attract the dynamics, you step into a paradox. Go over his sermon on Paradox again.

You say, “My God, my God, where am I at? Where am I at?” Where are you at? Shut-up and listen! If you can’t ask someone with a hatpin to jab you, to jar you; just listen and let your own thinking go, just listen.

Has anybody here this morning actually seen a chemical engineer do genetic splicing? Nobody? I’m sure you haven’t.

Well, supposing I was here doing it wouldn’t you just let your mind go blank to get everything I was trying to give you? Would you let your own thinking go? Because you don’t know anything about the subject, anyway.

38

Then if this woman at the end time is a whore, wretched, miserable, naked, blind and hasn’t got enough on the ball to know it, saying, “Oh, I’m increased in goods, and I don’t lack a thing, look at my clothes and all. I am no widow. I sit as a queen. Oh, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah, hallelujah.”

You know, you people better get with my wife, she’ll tell you a few things. She used to work in a little insane institution.

Well, they weren’t insane, they were born that way, and this one girl she knew that she was engaged to the Prince of Wales. Oh sure, absolutely. She was, too. When she found out about Wallis Simpson, the American, she was destitute.

What I’m trying to tell you, you can be so thoroughly deceived, wretched, miserable, naked, blind, and say, “I am not naked. I am not blind. I’m rich. I’m increased in goods. I don’t lack one thing, hallelujah. I am the virtuous wife of Almighty God; don’t you say I’m a harlot. Don’t you say I’m divorced, and don’t you say I’m a widow. I’m sitting as a queen. Hallelujah! And millions now living will never die.”

Right there you cut your throat. You filthy swine, using the Word of God. Millions will not live! Eight people made the ark. Now, if you can’t understand why people don’t like my preaching, I’ll tell you, I don’t like it either.

But they say, “I’m rich, increased in goods, and those lovely people are all going to make it.” God didn’t say that. Boggles your mind; kind old priest, nicer than Jesus, that renegade bird.

39

You know, Brother Branham was so marvelous in his dissertation, just marvelous, just marvelous.

[91-5]  Oh, I wish I could just get that over. Are you getting it? See, first, it was her mind. Before the act had ever taken place in her literal womb, the act had to take place in here first to let the Spirit come in, to do the rest of the work.

Oh, before there can be a spiritual birth take place, the Word has to find Itself through the mind; and the mind believe It. “He that heareth My Words, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath Eternal Life,

Now listen. Paul, the apostle preached the same thing. He said, “Casting down reasons and every high thing that exalts itself against the knowledge of God.” That’s what he said.

He said, “Just confess what I say, and don’t say anything else.”

And remember, the mind is a part of the spirit, it’s not brain now, although the brain receives it and imprints it, but it’s that life in that spirit that can bring it out of there.

It’s like the imprinted board that you got in your computer, anyplace else you got a printed board in there, and those chips, if you don’t have a battery or electricity, you ain’t going to get anywhere with your… your whole set-up is dead.

And let me tell you, you get too big a charge of electricity, it will blow the circuit. That’s what sex did. That’s why they got AIDS.

40

Come on, come on, people this morning, get down to the Bible with me and begin to believe It. What have you got to lose? Your souls. That’s what you got to lose. If you don’t believe It it’s gone. Listen!

[91-5]  “He that heareth My Words, and believeth on Him that hath sent Me, hath Eternal Life, and shall never come into the judgment, [now he puts in brackets] (or through the tribulation period), but has passed from death unto Life.”

Brother Branham is giving this Scripture a meaning that nobody else has ever given it.

“Oh, Kentucky hillbilly, yeah, that’s a pretty clever picture. Yeah, somebody put it with an airbrush maybe, yeah, you know he… he got carried away with that great ministry and all. Yeah, got too big for his britches. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.”

Well, come on, you tell me they’re not saying that. Even the people that say, “Well, I want to tell you what, if it ain’t the real thing, I’ll know it.”

Are you stupid this morning or are you understanding what a battle is? It’s a battle in this pulpit to try to tell you the truth. Oh yeah.

Need lousy, Vayle, to stand up, Don Shearer’s a Vayle man, because he didn’t listen to Laura pump him full of crap. What does Laura know? A woman.

Well, come on. I’ll bring the names out, I’m not afraid of you, you afraid of me? I’m not afraid. Hey, we can dissolve the church tomorrow morning, I’ll still stand for God. Somehow, some way.

And I don’t mean it half as I should mean It. I don’t know It half as I should know It. It’s not half as real as It should be, but I’m winning, because God’s Word can’t fail.

41

Let’s go back and find what this little hillbilly talking over here in the book of John. Always go to the… he liked the 5th chapter of John; you go from 5 or any other verses. You know Jesus was vindicating Himself, that’s God doing the whole thing and He said in,

John 5:19

(19) Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he [sees] the Father [doing]: for what soever [things] he doeth, [those things] also doeth the Son likewise.

And turns right around in John 14:12, and says, “Greater works than these shall he do because I go to my Father.”

In other words, God is going to come down here sometime after Jesus is up there on the mercy seat, the Intercessor, and the Mediator, and there’s going to be a fellow down here with a greater ministry.

“Oh, I just can’t believe that, no, no, no, you see Brother Vayle, what it means he’s spread around the world.”

Say, “Well, then Baptist brother, how come you’re not getting some healings?” What happened to you? a few Pentecostals? They don’t amount to a hill of beans for what they’re getting. What’s going on here?

42

You see, now listen. He goes on and he says,

John 5:20

(20) For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that [you] may marvel.

Hey hold it! Nothing greater happened. No. Nothing greater happened. He had to wait for it, and now they’ve happened. The epiphany, vindication, the virgin mind, live, die, sink or swim, drop dead; don’t try to get away from this Word.

I may not believe It right but I believe It; get out of my way. Well, you say, “You, you, you, …believe this is It?” Yeah, this is It. I ain’t looking no further. “Oh, boy, you sure must be sick.”

Oh, come on, for God’s sake, if you got the real, the next thing’s got to be a counterfeit. What do you want? You know something, I want to tell you people something, nobody has a sane mind, except the Bride, everybody else is insane.

Everybody… look at your government. Look at your government. Like father, like son. And he said, “He’s going to show them greater things.” So who came down? And what did he do with the Lamb on the Father’s throne?

John 5:20-23

(21) [Now] for as the Father [raises] the dead, and [quickens] them; even so the Son [quickens] whom he will.

(22) [And] the Father judgeth no man, but [He] hath committed all judgment unto the Son:

(23) That all men [may] honour the Son, even as they honour the Father. He that honoureth not the Son honoureth not the Father [and so on].

43

And right… he goes right on down here and all the way through. And Brother Branham categorically puts this One in here. And shall not come in the judgment; there’s no way that He will do it.

John 5:24

(24) Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that heareth my word, and believeth on him that sent me, hath everlasting life, and shall not come into [judgment]; but is passed from death unto life.

And he tells you right there, that this is that period of the Shout and the Voice and the Trumpet. The church being put in order. And he said this group of people are not going to be thrown into the Great Tribulation.

44

Now listen! There’s a promise that the church is going to be thrown into the Tribulation. Right? 2nd chapter, Revelation. Go and let’s look at it…

Alright,

Revelation 2:22-23

(22) [And] behold, I will cast her into a bed, and them that commit adultery with her into great tribulation, except they repent of their deeds. [All right. Now listen to me, the children…]

(23) …I will kill her children with death; [and notice] I am he which searcheth the reins and [the] hearts:

There’s Hebrews 4:12 again. This is your Great Tribulation. This is what Brother Branham is speaking about.

And he said, “As spiritual death, a second death at this time when body and soul are annihilated.” And he’s talking about these people.

Now remember, the foolish virgin does not get annihilated. She dies and she comes up with these people, but she’s allowed to come in on the outer perimeter with the kings and all the great ones, and bring their glory into the Bride.

Now Brother Branham is giving us the true meaning of this. He’s not just preaching a sermon. He’s giving us absolutely THUS SAITH THE LORD factual revelation from God.

So all right, this is 2 Thessalonians 1:10, the Judge exonerating us. This is Revelation chapter 18.

45

Revelation, chapter 18, now notice what it says,

Revelation 18:1-2

(01) …after these things I saw another angel [messenger] come down from heaven, having great power; and the earth was lightened with his glory.

(02) And he cried mightily with a strong voice, saying, Babylon the great is fallen, is fallen, become the habitation of devils, the hold of every foul spirit, and a cage of every unclean… hateful bird.

Now God Himself came down through the prophet and declared it. You don’t have to wonder anymore. The city upon the six hills. Who is the harlot? Who are the daughters? By vindication he told you and explained it.

Revelation 18:4-6

(04) And I heard [a] voice from heaven, saying, Come out of her, [What voice? The same Voice with the Shout, the Voice and the Trumpet.] come out of her, my people, [and don’t] be partakers of her sins,…

(05) For her sins have reached unto heaven,…

(06) Reward her even as she rewarded you,…

46

Now go on down the line and read the whole thing and you will find the judgment has been pronounced. Then what are you waiting for?

The execution of the sentence which cannot take place until certain other events take place. But they’re in process. Time and eternity have blended. I wish I could read it all. I don’t have time. Read it for yourself.

But however, let’s go to Revelation, the 11th chapter, this is now… remember, Brother Branham said, “The Seven Trumpet in revelation is the same as the Seven Seals to us.” Now verse 15.

Revelation 11:15

(15) And the seventh angel sounded; and there were great voices in heaven, saying, The kingdoms of this world are become the kingdoms of our Lord, and of his Christ; and he shall reign for ever and ever.

Who do you think came down to take over? To put everything under the feet of Jesus? When did He do it? What is going on?

Are you still looking to the future? So you’ll know when the real thing comes along? Yes, I’m going to keep driving it in.

Oh yeah, go on and tell them, who gives a rip, it’s on the tape. Go on. You open your mouth; I’ll put my foot in it. Two feet in one mouth is a pretty bad situation. Come on, go ahead. Go ahead. It’s got to come out anyway.

Revelation 11:15

(15) …the kingdom of our Lord, and of his Christ;

Who’s taking over right now? Who’s putting the church in order? Who gave the Kalusma, the Shout? Which is bringing everything in divine order and subjection. You’ve got to get right back to the Garden of Eden, where you go to the Tree of Life.

Now watch!

Revelation 11:16-18

(16) …the four and twenty elders, which sat before God on their seats, fell upon their faces, and worshipped God,

(17) Saying, We give thee thanks, O Lord God Almighty, which art, and wast, and art to come; because thou hast taken [unto] thee thy great power, and has reigned.

(18) And the nations [are] angry,…

47

Well, you say, “If that isn’t a garble bunch of hogwash, I never heard any. Everybody knows that nothing much is going on if anything and now it says you’ve already taken your power and the reigning is going on and yet there’s nothing being done, that’s down the road.”

That’s where you’re wrong. Time and eternity have blended, He is here and He’s taking over! Judgment is in the land.

Oh God, don’t you understand, Brother Branham said, “Always looking back, always looking back, always looking forward, always looking forward,” why don’t you look now?

“Well, Brother Vayle, I can read.” Well, great, I know you can read, you’re wonderful. You say, da, da, and goo, goo, when you’re a tiny baby yes, I know. You’re an Einstein spiritually. Fap!

Read your Bible’s, see. But don’t read it with your own thinking. Read what he said here, or through the tribulation period. He interpreted. That’s it. “That’s a Kentucky hillbilly, got carried away because he had such a great ministry.”

Well, what kind of a God do you serve would give a jackass a great ministry and back him up? And then not mean it? I couldn’t respect a God like that. He’d cut my throat every five minutes of the day. I’d sooner believe in mythology.

You understand what I’m trying to get across to you? Somebody’s playing fast and loose, my brother, my sister. Never said I was a nice preacher.

Revelation 11:18

(18) …the nations angry, thy wrath is come, the time of the dead, that they should be judged, that thou shouldest give reward unto thy servants the prophets, and to the saints, and them that fear thy name, [and] small and great; and should… destroy them [that] destroy the earth.

So this is the second half of the first Resurrection. This is not at the end of the Great Tribulation.

And notice,

Revelation 11:19

(19) And the temple of God was opened in heaven, and there was seen in his temple the ark of his testament: and there were lightnings, and voices, and thunderings, and an earthquake, and great hail.

48

And it tells you right there, the judgment of the Great Tribulation has already set. And Brother Branham said “When you see this happen right here, you know that you’re in for it. This is it.”

“Oh, just a minute now, if that’s the case you see Brother Vayle, Brother Branham’s been dead now, what is it now? Twenty-eight years, and you see twenty-eight years that blows the whole thing.”

You’ve got to be nuts. Noah was building the ark a hundred and twenty years. Who told you to set a time? Who made you a judge? And talk about a virgin mind? Ha, ha, ha, ha, whoring mind is the word; whoring mind.

You know what a whore is? She sells her body for money, the very temple holy unto God to give life, she’s the goddess of pleasure; an Aphrodite. Sheee. Talk about filth, that’s the church. That’s the church.

49

Revelation 22:14. Look at it. The Seals are open in Revelation 10. And in 14.

Revelation 22:14

(14) Blessed are they that [wash their robes… not] do his commandments, [wash their robes] that they may have right to the tree of life, and enter in through the gates into the city.

Now watch! Enter in through the gates. What are the gates? There you are. Plural. Series. You know the gate I’m looking for right now? Is immortality and I’ve already got the gate of the Living Word of God the vindicated Word; I’ve passed that gate by the grace of God.

The next thing, Millennium I’m into the other gate and past the White Throne; it’s at this time, my brother, my sister, you have begun the opening of the gate. Time and eternity have mingled. Go right to the Tree of Life. Assured!

This Bride is assured that she is a part of the New Jerusalem, get that flat. Where only the first age and they could be deceived, had a true hope built upon a knowledge that they knew, that they knew, only this Bride supersedes. Now how settled down are you?

50

We lost a lot. One guy said, “No preacher is going to tell my family how to dress.” And I need to talk real blunt sometimes, get rid of your kids and come and stand with me sometime, and I’ll tell you what’s in the books that you haven’t read.

And I’ll tell you things you have been married for years and maybe, you know, but I doubt you do know, and I’ll tell you why I say them. And I can show you when a woman has a slit in her skirt, has a filthy whorish spirit on her.

Why don’t you put a boxed pleat in it? No, can’t do that. And the husband is standing right… where’s the husband? You tell me you love your wife.

You love the Word of God? You’re liars, just sitting there liars. Don’t talk to me about it; I got you cold dead.

I don’t just talk up here, I back… everything up I’ll back and you may laugh, but I got my original knowledge of this from a Catholic priest. The best there is in the whole game.

Churches have got the spirit of the whore on it. She’s living in pleasure and her pleasure is a perverted Word. And she loves to open her mind to everything that comes along, and that’s latter rain Pentecost. That’s the closest and that’s the filthiest.

[92-1]  Oh, my. …notice now: virgin womb, her mind, virgin mind to believe God’s Word. [Live, die, sink or swim. All right,] …you say, “Now, look here. Oh,” say, “Brother Branham, it couldn’t be that way; it’s impossible. John Wesley would’ve seen it; So-and-so would’ve seen it.”

51

How can you see what it isn’t time for? How can you see the apples on the tree even though you know it is a apple tree when it’s dead winter? But you know the apples are coming.

And in the spring you see the leaves, that’s an apple leaf, oh yes, yes, yes. And you see a little blossom, and the apple blossoms are beautiful. Say, “Oh yes, yes, yes.”

But if I’m going to have a real good bunch of fruit, I’ve got to pull some of them off, or they’ll drop off on their own, because real good fruit doesn’t abide in great big… you know, only… in the grapes of Eshcol were two men couldn’t even lift up one bunch of grapes. That’s a different story.

But even the Garden of Eden was supposed to be pruned. I know it’s an apple tree, because I see the apples. It’s only a matter of time now, to the ones fall off that shouldn’t be there, and the others stay there, and the sun and the rain bring the heat and there’s harvest time. Simple as A-B-C. It wasn’t time.

Brother Branham mentioned, he said, “The planting, a little sprout came up, a little shoot, a little tiny bit under Luther. A little more under Wesley, then Pentecost. There stood the chaff.

And the chaff didn’t know that it wasn’t the wheat, but the life had to be manifest. That life, listen, that life in this here was manifested. God Himself came down. Not only manifest Himself in signs and wonders,” [as Brother Branham said,] “But He showed Himself in a Pillar of Fire upon Mount Sinai, and so today we have His picture.”

“Oh yes, it’s too much for me.” Well, it ain’t too much for me. I’m going to tell you something: I got to be honest with you, it’s really too much for me in this respect, that my mind is a mixed-up mind like yours.

And it’s not enough in this respect, that I hate to think one man would have it in the sense that we just couldn’t keep having more and more, it… but you know, but the thing is, we don’t need it. Because when It’s vindicated, It’s vindicated and it’s all over.

Now that’s the hard thing to accept, and that’s where the Branhamites are all mixed-up. They can’t accept what Brother Branham said, “You have everything under those Seven Seals to put you in the Rapture.”

Then what more are you looking for? What more are you looking for? The answer is your mind is full of something or other.

Now what’s the hope? Stay with every ounce of your energy, keep saying It, keep talking It, and guard your thoughts and your minds and your hearts and stay with It, until one day It ripens and It comes forth like the lion It is.

Let me assure you, brother/sister, baby lions can be dangerous, but they’re really only little pussy cats until they get big. Then they’re very, very dangerous.

The Word in our heart may be like a pussy cat right now, just purring but one day It’s going to roar, brother/sister, one day It’s going to roar. Lion of the tribe of Judah. Don’t fool with God’s Word.

[92-1]  …notice now: virgin womb,… virgin mind to believe God’s Word. …you say, “Now, look here. Oh,” say, “Brother Branham, and so on… Wesley would have it; (no, it wasn’t time.)

[92-2]  Sure, the devil could’ve said the same thing to Mary: “Who are you? Why, you’re the poorest of the city. You ain’t nothing but a young sixteen year old, or eighteen year old, down here packing water out of this pump; your father dead and your mother an old blind woman down there.

Now, how in the world will you ever… [See, he said,] (Ann was her mother, you know, the prophetess, we’re told.) How in the world are you… going to have a thing to do with that?”

[92-3]  “Listen, my old mother is a blind woman, but she’s a godly woman. Through her lips she’s planted a seed in my heart. I’ve read it out of God’s Word myself… in Isaiah 9:6: ‘A virgin shall conceive.'”

53

Now what’s he telling you here? Listen! If you are a true seed of God, you will recognize the Word of God, when It comes to you. You’ll recognize It.

See. She recognized the Scripture even as we recognize the vindication pointing us to the Word and say, “That’s It,” because remember, she had vindication.

[92-4]  Hallelujah. Can you see, the Word takes flesh. There you are. God’s going to have a church. It’s going to be born of the Word of God, because it is the living Word of God. Do you see it?

In other words, Brother Branham said, “The day’s coming. The day is here when you receive the Word of God in your flesh, you become the Word of God and,” he said, “the flesh is becoming Word and the Word is becoming flesh.”

And this is the answer to Revelation 3:14, “Wretched, miserable, naked, blind and don’t know it.” And He said, “I’ve only got one thing to tell you; repent, change your mind.”

Now how are you going to change your mind? He said, “I’m standing at the door, come on out here and I’ll change it for you.” How? Vindication.

Brother/sister, we better know the man outside, we better know the One outside is God, we better know that.

54

Just like John, he heard a Voice and he turned to see the Voice. And Brother Branham said, “That means to turn and see if it’s scriptural.” Now once you get the sign of the prophet, it’s all over.

You are either going to be elect, absolutely, wise virgin, or you’re finished. From that point on, I cannot judge if you are foolish virgin and will make it eventually, or whether you’re straight unbeliever, or just a make believer.

Now we sure had our dose of something being made around here, I just don’t understand it all, but I know one thing I don’t care what anybody does, or any preacher in this pulpit or anyplace else, I am not going to leave what I believe in this Word and what I preach Word for Word by Brother Branham here.

He said,

[92-4]  …Can you see, the Word takes flesh.

In other words, the Word took right to her flesh. It was instilled right into her, just like that sperm and that egg created, began multiplying in her, her body, to bring it forth. .

[92-4]  There you are. God’s going to have a Church. [Brother Branham said,] “The Word is being in virgin womb’s right now; He’s going to have that church.” It’s going to be born… of the Word of God, because it is the living Word of God. Do you see it?

In other words, the Word is coming to the Word. We’re a little part, and that Word comes, a life strikes it, and we become that fulfilment.

Now many people don’t understand that. But let’s put it this way. That’s the way it has been through Seven Church Ages. That’s all. Only we don’t have to die. This church will be standing here as no other church ever did from the time of the Garden of Eden.

There is going to be a Bride, a very, very tiny number, as it was in the days of Noah, seven or eight people, who knows, it could be more than that, I’m sure. But they’re going to be right here.

Okay, that’s as far as we can go today. I know our time is gone.

55

Spoken Word is original seed, brother/sister, if we don’t get back to what Paul preached, and understand, how It was given, to take It how it was given, and to make It ours; we’re never going to make it. That’s the whole secret.

That Word is going to be fulfilled as Brother Branham said, “If we’re not Bride, there’s a Bride out there somewhere and by the grace of God we’ll not stand in her way.”

I’ve done some tough preaching. I do it to warn you, because I see what’s been going on and on and on behind my back and every place else.

When I stand before God in that great day, I don’t intend to be guilty of anybody’s blood in this church right here, as far as I know what the Word of God says. I lay it all out before you.

Uncover every single thing, talk about my own heart condition, God knows it anyway. We are before the White Throne, because brother/sister, He is the White Throne, because He is the Judge and He is here. Don’t let that escape your attention.

Let’s rise and be dismissed.

Heavenly Father, again we want to thank You for Your kindness to us, this kindness, Lord, that allows us to come together, to study the Word of the prophet, to take our time, to realize how this thing was in the beginning, and how it’s got to come back.

Everything typed, Brother Branham right with the apostle Paul. Paul vindicated, William Branham vindicated, the very words that Jesus said that seem to be so farfetched in the light of who He was.

“This is that Son, this is that One in whom was the fullness of the Godhead dwelling. This was that One who said, God in me, and he that has seen Me has seen the Father,” then turn around and say, and show me greater works yet.

Talking about those very things that were manifest. I don’t believe Lord, that meant raising from the dead, I believe it’s just exactly what John 14:12 says, and believe Lord it’s today. Father, we know it’s today, we know these things have happened.

It’s been vindicated, how can we not take vindication? How can we not see? When the sun rises; hey, the sun’s risen. When the sun’s set; the sun is set. When the tide’s in; the tide’s in. When the tide’s out; the tide’s out.

When spring comes; spring’s come. When spring’s gone; spring’s gone. When we’re three years old turn four, we’re no more three, we’re four. Help us to be that simple.

Help us Lord, this morning to be that simple and not get lost in verbosity, not get lost in anything Lord, but the life of the Word, just believing It, trusting implicitly, standing a hundred percent with It. Not trying to change It.

Not necessarily try to explain It, as though It needed something done to It, that would help It. Thinking only in terms Lord, of explanation, and exploration on the grounds of You becoming more wonderful to us.

Clearer, more dynamic, more a part of us, more consolidated, more of knowing in that day, we’re one with You and You’re one with us, and we’re all together. That’s what we’re looking at Lord.

Maybe even just pitifully crying out in our souls Lord, the more we preach and talk about It, somehow, it’s going to get a hold of us, more and more until just suddenly, that’s the living Word, finally coming through these vessels of clay. Hopefully, finally, You’re being glorified in us.

Hopefully, finally, the deep calling to the deep, and the complete satisfaction, Face to face, and knowing as we’re knowing, in whatever sense that could really mean the satisfaction of our heart Lord, leaping, rising up, blessing Thy Name and praising You all the day long, from the depths of the truth of revelation. This is what we are looking at Lord, real Bride, real Groom, Reality.

If we believe It grows Lord, we’re trusting It does. It’s day by day, the evening dew, morning rains, bright sun, in Your Presence Lord, until we come forth with the beloved ones that have gone beyond. We all rise to meet You in the air, at the Great Wedding Supper.

May not one of us miss it, grant Lord, each one look forward and may nothing supersede what we’ve looked at this morning, O God, no way, shape and form to be carried away by what others are doing, and get so lost looking what they’re doing, we could even forget Lord, what You’re doing in and through us, if we only give You the chance.

So we’re asking You for divine guidance today Lord, we’re asking to put us in the tube Lord, to build that hedge around us, like Job.

Find us Lord, where we couldn’t get out, and we don’t want to get out, and where the enemy can’t get in even though he wants to, and there we are Lord, under the shadow of the Almighty, and the refuge of the Rock.

The Psalmist wanted It. We believe every prophet spoke of It. And here today Lord, somehow there’s going to be somebody seeing It fulfilled and I trust Lord, it’s every single one here this morning, in divine Presence.

And now Lord, as the prophet said, “If we confess and we witness to Your Word Lord, concerning ourselves, even our bodies, You would literally cause, and make our bodies to obey that testimony of the Word.”

So here we are today Lord, there’s so much here in this land, that we can apprehend, and so much that is ours, O God, may we become the busiest people in all the world, meditating upon Your Word and labouring, labourers of faith to enter in, to miss nothing but in all things gain everything, which is ours in Christ.

This is what we desire Lord, You’ve heard our prayer, and without You Lord, it isn’t going to happen. And we’re asking You, this morning, if it’s there according to Your Word it will happen.

Now unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only wise God be all power, honor and glory, through Jesus Christ our Savior. Amen.

‘Take the Name of Jesus with you’.
