Spoken Word is Original Seed; Book 2 #15

Shall we pray.

Heavenly Father, we’re so happy that You are here in the form of the Holy Spirit, not in a body of flesh, but in that spirit to head up the church and to lead the church into the promised land which we know is to be the Great Millennium.

We’re grateful for that, and we pray Lord, that as this Word is come and You had a prophet, to deliver It, You had him already prepared.

So even now You’re preparing the people, and we trust that we are aware of that, as we proceed down the last little days of this life, and that we might be not only aware but very amenable to Your Word knowing that prayer is not that which is given to us to twist Your arm and to make You change Your Mind or cause You to do those things which we want You to do.

But rather Lord, prayer is we agreeing with You and Your revelation, Your Word, and we want to ask You to help us to bring ourselves in submission and subjection to that Word, that that Word may come forth in our life, and not only this life, but the life which is to come.

So Father help us to that end tonight. Teach us Your Word more perfectly, we’ll give You the glory in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

You may be seated.

All right now, last Sunday, as in previous studies we saw how Eve failed to bring forth the promised Word Seed Son, through by-passing her husband, as did the First Church Age, and it’s continued to do so. Yet there must come a church that is the true virgin Word Bride of Christ and to Christ.

Not only ‘of, but ‘to’ because that’s where the trouble came. They failed Him. They were of Him, and failed Him. Even as the virgin Mary said, “Be it unto me according to Thy Word.”

And the royal Seed was born and fulfilled His destiny and even now is on the Father’s throne waiting for the reincarnation to come back with the other sons and seed of God to fulfil Genesis 1:26 and 30. And you’re all aware of that.

Now, let’s just look at that again. So we saw in our previous studies how Eve failed to bring forth the promised Seed… or Word Seed Son.

And it came to pass she did this by by-passing her husband, she turned to somebody else who was able to, and wrongfully inseminated her, bringing forth not the Son of God, but a bastard.

That happened also in the First Church Age, we find that Paul was worried about the Bride being inseminated by a wrong word.

It all started with the mind which is the womb of the spirit, the womb of the Word and, consequently, we have a very sorrowful condition at the end time which is a thoroughly illegitimate church in Revelation 3:14-23.

So that church, the first church by-passed her husband, but we have, of course, Mary who was on the scene, the virgin Mary and she said, “Be it unto me according to Thy Word.”

Now, you’ll notice in there that Mary makes literally two statements. One of which is, first of all, “Be it unto me,” now I want you to just think a minute.

What is that little phrase, “Be it unto me,” actually is the same as another phrase which can be summed up in one word? You’re thinking? Okay. “Be it unto me.” So let it be. What’s the one word that sounds just like it? Amen.

All right, Mary said, “Amen.” And Brother Branham said, “That every true Seed of God full of the Holy Ghost says what to every Word, ‘Amen.’” All right. She said, “Amen, according to Thy Word.”

Now, just about every fundamentalist says, “Amen, amen, amen.” But when it’s according to the Word, “Hey, I never said, ‘Amen’ to that.”

Now, just to be really nasty, let’s read the Word of God.

This is the same God of Isaiah, the God of the Amen; the God of truth. So, Eve could not say and did not say, “Amen, let it be according to Your Word.” She took another word.

The First Church Age took another word which has been increasing until when the God of the Amen comes on the scene, ‘Let it be according to Thy Word,’ they’re a million miles away and they’re… saying in the face of the legitimate Scripture, and all Scripture is legitimate, but this is even more legitimate than anything; “As it was in the days of Noah.”

But the fundamentalists led particularly by the Pentecostals, that if Brother Branham said back in his day which is my goodness, me, twenty-eight years ago, and he said it thirty years ago; “Methodists want the Baptists, Baptists want the Presbyterians; Pentecostals want them all.”

And the Pentecostal is still today the fastest growing church until in Latin America, the people are coming away from the Catholicism and Protestantism and from idolatry and nothingness, and they’re becoming Pentecostal by the tens of thousands.

And everybody’s screaming, “Millions now living will never die.” That is a lie from the pit of hell. Now I know that you and I are accused of being crepe hangers and not very nice people, because we dare to say, “Just a minute, millions now living, in fact billions are going to die.”

So therefore, we are looking for a Mary, a true virgin of the Word who will say, “Amen,” to the angel of this hour.

Hey, let’s read it again. Revelation chapter 3, verse 14.

To the messenger… to the messenger, right, of the Laodicean church, the last church, the Seventh Church Age: you bunch of lukewarm people, that the best of your testimony is this, one of self aggrandizement, self satisfaction, I’m full and I don’t need anything.

Remember, when you come to the Lord full, He turns you away empty. And the empty ones He turns away full. Doesn’t turn them away, He brings them in and feeds them, because you see, I’m rich, increased in goods, and have need of nothing; and don’t know you’re wretched, miserable, you’re a beggar, bumming on the street, poor, blind, naked.

I got something to tell you but you don’t listen. And when He says, this is what you are and you come to me for the Holy Ghost and for the raiment that the shame of your nakedness does not appear at My Appearing, you better get My eye salve.

They said, “Who are you talking to?” So the messenger came, they said, “Amen, my foot. Trouble with you, is Branham, never mind that stupid picture, who knows what that is, and all that poppycock about the angels, we got news for you. It just happens that you’re a poor little ignorant Kentucky hillbilly that God gave a great gift to so you had to mess everything up.”

You had a Roman Catholic priest knows when God brings a miracle; you shut-up, sit down and listen. Well, that Roman Catholic priest may do a whole lot better on the judgment day than all the Pentecostals put together.

In fact I can tell you right now, he will. The man that wrote that book, in my books, absolutely, will be at the White Throne.

Now remember, God said in His Word, “If the heathen know by conscience without law, what to do, you Israelites have got the law, don’t even listen, they’re going to be a witness against you.”

I know that they expect us to kowtow to them or if we’re right at least to feel terribly sorry. Well, they may have a point, not the kowtowing, but the terribly sorry.

Now she said here, “Amen, according to Thy Word, let It be to me.”

The virtuous Bride if there is one, and there will be one at the end time will be as Mary, we must particularly emphasize the words of Mary, “According to Thy Word,” that is: “Let this One, the coming One, be born of me in no other way than according to the Word of God, which by-passes man entirely, and even the woman entirely except as a conduit for the nourishment, and the forming of the child, so indeed, the Word of God becomes flesh.”

Now that’s what she understood, and the church today, the true Bride will understand that. An actual spoken Word Son of God was produced in human flesh. Christ was the Word of God manifested in human flesh. The Bride must be like Him, as we notice in 1 Peter 1:23, which we’ve looked at many, many times.

In other words, as Brother Branham said, “We by-passed our Word body, but by baptism with the Holy Ghost we now have that which is commensurate.”

And of course, that may be a sort of a loose statement, a little loose application, but believe me; it is still true, because were we to have something different, God would have seen that we would have had it.

So now all right, we have this then, the Baptism with the Holy Ghost which is the rebirth.

Now notice, he says, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible.

Now we are to be re-begotten, or reborn, because we were born of the corruptible spora, or seed, and every child of God born of sex dies and corrupts, and even corrupts before he dies, because he’s born of corruptible seed which means his body’s got to go, was born to go; as one fellow once said, right above your mirror: “Born to die.”

His body corrupts even before he dies, and is a state of corruption; it is, absolutely, a body of death or the carrier of death.

But let us notice Jesus according to his flesh, and to do that we go to Psalm number, I guess it’s 16 and 10. If it isn’t it better be somewhere anyway. All right.

And you notice over here in Acts, the 2nd chapter, verse 22 to 36.

And notice that the elect didn’t have a thing to do with that. Now if they didn’t have a thing to do with that in the Alpha; they won’t do it in the Omega, but they’ll be the only ones that don’t. The foolish virgin also will crucify themselves the Son of God, not knowing what they do.

My flesh shall rest in hope. Now, hope is earnest expectation. Now Jesus had to die, but there comes at the end time a Bride that won’t die, so her flesh can rest in hope, in earnest expectation to the promise of the hour and those promises which are contingent to it.

That’s the promise for this hour, too, because that’s Alpha for the Omega, the Presence of Almighty God. And remember, that’s what happens in 1 Corinthians 13, doesn’t it?

Hold your finger there and go to 1 Corinthians, chapter 13 as these things cross my mind, I’ll just look at them, because we’re in no rush. All right it says here,

And it says over here we prophesy in part, Seven Church Ages, seven parts of the prophetic message because the Bible is a Book of prophecy. But at the end time it’s face to face.

Now, you don’t have to believe that if you don’t want to, but I got news for you, if I can find it. See, I’m always talking about things I have a hard job finding, because I have a job with the Bible.

I know it’s in it, but I don’t know where to find it. Oh, I found it, in the 12th chapter of the Book of Numbers, after Moses was confronted by Aaron and Miriam, because they smarted off, and they got away with it, but they got punished.

All right, let’s go back to Acts, about this prophet. Okay, we’re reading in 22 there, now verse 28.

You will make me full of joy with Thy countenance, with Your Appearing, with Your showing Yourself, revealing Yourself.

Now remember, the promise of the Holy Ghost is temporary. It runs out. As it runs out you have to get then, there’s only one recourse and that’s—see?—the Baptizer Himself, so the baptism runs out but not the Baptizer. So now we’re face to face with the Baptizer.

Okay, you’re going to sit there, or you’re going to be there until it’s time for the take over. Now remember, there’s a process going on now where the enemies, the foes must be turned into a footstool. Now what’s a footstool? Something you put your feet on. Right?

Okay, let’s check it out.

God made Him that, this is the great Son of God. All right. This One was born of the Word and you will notice there was no way that His body could corrupt, even though He died. Couldn’t. Well, the man is dead, the body corrupts.

No, I’m sorry, no way, because the Man had no sin, He was not born of sex. He was the last Adam, the second man. And made in God’s image and he came forth in that image that God wanted. No way could the body corrupt.

Now if he’d of taken thirty days in the grave, it would have already been provided that corruption could not set in. Now notice, Brother Branham said, “The fourth day corruption would set in.”

There’s no way it could set in, because that was the Word of God, he’s going to rise the third day. And his body was kept in that very particular condition. And the third day signifies some time in that hour, the third hour, there’s got to be… the raising from the dead.

Now, let’s look at 1 Corinthians, the 15th chapter, and verse 51 to 55.

Now, this is going to be just like Abraham, just about one minute before his body was changed, he was in the worst shape he ever was in.

But remember that Word kept him from ever going to the place of corruption; he couldn’t do it. That Word changed him back to a young man and Sarah to a young woman.

Now remember, our Abraham which is really the seed which is Isaac, but we got to go back. Isaac did die, of course, Abraham died, too.

But we did not see Isaac coming back from a state of, well, morbidity you might call, he was ready to die, but Abraham did. And Abraham’s body was changed.

And at that particular time death is swallowed in victory. Doesn’t say it’s destroyed; it’s just swallowed up as a wild animal caught in a net. And so death at that particular time has no sting.

So here’s what you’re looking at, in this hour, it’s going to take a virgin Bride, virgin of the Word who has no mind but the mind of Christ. No Word but the Word of Christ.

And yet you’ll notice that many, many churches have that inscribed on their cornerstone; “No word, but the Word of God,” or the Bible, and that of course, that’s a lot of hogwash, because it’s not according to the Word of God as long as you got a creed or a dogma there.

Even though ninety percent of It, be the Word of God, if you got your own little creed in there by changing one word you have a problem. All right.

Now, we’re going to go back to page 30 and Brother Branham says…,

[92-4]  Hallelujah. Can you see, [which means ‘can you understand what I am saying’?] the Word takes flesh. [Now let’s go back to the previous paragraph. And Mary is talking and she’s saying,]

[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,…

Now remember, the Bible tells us way back there in the Pentateuch, that you’re supposed to take the Word of God and teach it to your children, to your children’s children, right down, to a thousand generations.

You see, now a thousand generations is quite a long time. A generation could be twenty years, forty years, could be a hundred years, could be a thousand years. Look in Scripture you’ll find that.

The generations in the beginning were one thousand years, then they went down to one hundred under the time of Abraham, when he said, “Your children… your four generations from now, four hundred years down in Egypt.”

And then now a generation would be seventy years, that’s in other words, completion. Yet Brother Branham said, “The new generation starts everyday.”

But remember, the Word of God is given to God’s children, and It never runs out. There’s no Word of God void of power, and there’s no Word of God that ever dies, ever runs out till It’s course is completely finished. And when It’s completely manifested. All right.

She said here, now what is the Word she read.

[92-3]  “…I read it out of God’s Word myself that God said in Isaiah 9:6: ‘a virgin shall conceive.’” [Now that was the Word planted in her heart.]

Now do you think for one minute that any other woman in Israel, if somebody came to them and said, “Now you’re going to have a baby without male intervention.”

They’d have looked you in the eye and said, “Just who are you trying to kid? I suppose you think that you’re God or somebody.”

Oh, they knew all about these gods that came down and got women pregnant. So the virgin birth was something which would be looked upon askance, and they would know there’s great trickery there.

Now, what I’m trying to show you here is this angel interpreted to her having come from God, what the Scripture really means when it says in Isaiah, because it does not say, ‘a virgin shall conceive, her being a virgin and without male intervention will bear a child’. It’s actually, ‘amah’, which means ‘a young woman’.

Now you see why I’m saying that, for the very purpose to get you to understand, that there’s a lot of things in this Bible that you and I think we can just read and know and then in the face of vindicated revelation, we say, “Aw, just a minute, that can’t be, because I’ve got my own idea.”

Well, I’m sorry, that’s the way people are. That’s just the way people are.

Now let’s go a little further. Brother Branham categorically said, “Every… man figured his daughter would be that one to bear that child,” and he said, “They were putting aside little booties and the bird’s eye, now they’re getting the diapers and the little boots ready.”

Now you mean to tell me Israel believed that a woman without male intervention was going to have a baby that would be the Messiah?

See, Brother Branham took a lot of things that he said, and when you balance them all in there, there’s a hundred percent with the Word, because when he said, “Every father said; ‘Now that’s my daughter. I’m looking for that virgin to come forth.’” Did every man in Israel believe in the virgin birth?

Now just a minute, Brother Branham’s own words were, concerning Mary, “They said, ‘Virgin birth, my foot, she’s nothing but a little whore to her husband. She had a child illegitimate by a Roman solider.’”

Come on, you can’t have your cake and eat it. The prophet didn’t make mistakes, he put one thing here, and one thing there, and you bring it together; it’s a hundred percent perfect, because they all wanted that daughter to be the virgin to bring forth that child, that young woman—Sure—of the tribe of David—Sure—men, males.

He didn’t say, “You were in your mother.” He said, “You were in your father because the father bears the life.” So, all right.

This girl, this young woman, virgin, yes, but young woman, the angel came to her and she pondered the… Let’s go back and look at it. It’s over in the Book of Luke. Let’s just follow what’s going on here. Now, it says the 26th verse,

Now she didn’t throw up her hands in horror; she wasn’t overwhelmed. Now just a minute, this sounds like somebody that’s a little bit nutty; a little too simple to just stand there. Now let’s look at it. I want you to follow me.

This woman was no run of the mill ordinary young woman I can tell you that right now. What made her stand there? What made her not get terribly frightened and run off screaming?

Now she knew about the devil; she knew about fallen angels; there’s no way she doesn’t know these things. See? But what is this about? She stands there and looks at it.

In other words, what I’m saying, she didn’t make any snap judgments based on her religion and her teaching which they did with Jesus, which they did with John the Baptist, which they did with William Branham, which they did with Paul, which they do with everybody that comes from God. You got those birds, those people that make their snap judgments.

Now she stood right there, now she represents the church. Now remember this, she’s the virgin Bride of Christ.

Now this angel did not say, “Mary, I’ve got a proposition from God for you.” Now that’s the way you and I would like it. “Lord, I got friends I’d like to see saved.” Go right back to good old Pharaoh and Moses.

“Lord, I’m going to go back to Egypt, and I’m going to pray for Moses, because he’s really my half-brother, you know. I mean, Pharaoh. He’s my half-brother there,” and of course, it wasn’t real half-brother, but he was according to family relations.

He was a half-brother, and “I’m going to go back there and pray for old Pharaoh, because he’s a nice old boy. And we’ve played together. Oh, we had our tiffs and everything else, you know. I’ll just solve this whole thing by praying for those people. Everything is going to be nice.”

Now this proves that’s a lot of hogwash.

Now he said to her, “You’ve found favour with God.” Of course, that could be a come-on trick; huh? There’s a lot of people swear they found favor with God, and they’re going straight to hell.

What I’m trying to show you, this woman was uniquely that one, chosen, approaching unto God and she fell right in line with reality. And it didn’t explode her mind. Yeah.

Now if this didn’t explode her mind, and it’s so easy for people’s minds to be caught up by the devil and taken right off the Word. This is a very unique person.

So therefore, the end time Bride will be a very unique Bride. She’ll catch it right now, and say, “That’s God. That’s God, yeah.” Yeah.

No problem and she’ll stand there waiting for the full expectation of the promise of this hour. “It’s mine!” “Be it unto me according to Your Word.” That’s this Bride at the end time. Now a lot of other brides thought they had it, but they didn’t. See?

Now she’s espoused to Joseph. But look at this girl coming right around. Now she could have said, “Now, this of course, will come from my husband Joseph, to whom I am espoused, and I’m pledged to marry and I will marry.” See?

Said, you will conceive, that’s normal thing that happens between husband and wife, or between male and female.

Now, she in her mind will accept this. She doesn’t know how it’s going to be, and the literal thought is, is a man involved in this? The angel said, “No.”

Now this woman did not have any vindication that we can see written here in Scripture.

So if you want to look at her faith and you want to see what she’s like, in contradistinction to everybody else, you are looking at a veritable thief on the cross, who in the face of a Man that claimed He was Savior, and was dying, couldn’t save Himself or do a thing, seeing no miracles, knowing nothing, but looking at Him, suddenly saying, “Remember me when You come to your kingdom.”

You’ve got a perfect picture of these two people; they’re, absolutely, fantastic. One trusting in a crucified and dying Savior, yet knowing this is It, and this woman knowing nothing, about how anybody could have a child apart from a man. She just says, “How will it be?” God’s in this, but I’m going to marry a man. Which is it?

Now she must have known something about serpent seed, because all of Israel knew about serpent seed. You know it’s really beautiful when you come here, because here the Pharisees in the light of everything Jesus did, proving He was actually God manifest in flesh.

“Why,” they said, “He’s of Beelzebub; anybody can see that, because he doesn’t agree with us.”

Now let’s get the picture, in the Presence of the Amen. “Amen,” she said, “Amen, amen, whatever is for me, is for me.”

How many people are going to make the Rapture? How many five-fold ministry? Brother Branham went… just before he died, he said there’s less than what is on his five fingers of his hand. I believe old Sam Conley wouldn’t lie, any more than I’d lie about what he said to me. What’s to lie?

Luke 1:

Amen is what she is saying. Amen to the God of the Amen. He doesn’t change; He’s the same God.

Now notice! This is Alpha. Right, the Bride is there as a virgin Bride with the Alpha God. The “so be it.” Now at the end time we got the same thing.

Now notice she said it twice. Didn’t she? No, she said it once, but up here was the same thing. She said, “How can this be?” When he told her she didn’t bat an eyelash, she didn’t move away.

Let it be exactly as the Word of God is interpreted to me in this hour. And as I say all she did was see an angel come into that room.

What about when God has His picture taken, and THUS SAITH THE LORD has been vindicated time after time, and Brother Branham was in the same category as Moses and Paul and proven to be such. All right.

Now having preached this little paragraph, he said,

[92-4]  Hallelujah. Can you see, can you understand, do you see how the Word takes on flesh, [It becomes 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.

Now it was the living Word of God back there, speaking to Mary that brought forth Christ in flesh. Now that’s what you’re looking at.

Brother Branham said, “That when God stood down there with Abraham, the promise was just before the burning of Sodom.”

Now remember, the judgment was passed, and after the fire that son was born, came forth in flesh, but the promise was vindicated. We’ve got the same thing right now.

Before this earth is cleansed with fire, and the Son of God in flesh with the Bride comes down and takes over, we already have that Word given to us, and there’s no way that It’s not going to become flesh. It absolutely, has to.

Now, as Brother Branham said, “The Word becomes flesh and the flesh becomes Word.” He says here,

[92-4]  It’s going to be born of the Word of God, because it is the living Word of God. Do you see it?

Do you understand now that at the end time there has to be the Word come to a church which is virgin in this respect, that no word will supersede the Word of the messenger from God? Now remember, the church has condemned itself.

The book that Lindsay wrote, and the Pentecostals took it, was ‘A Man Sent From God’. Stadsklev wrote the book, ‘A Prophet Visits Africa’.

It was known that Brother Branham was of such stature as not seen since the time of Jesus Christ. Yet as the Pharisees and Sadducees, they had no problem, verbally, crucifying him. He said,

[92-4]  “How do you know it?” “Why, it’s going to…” [He cuts his phraseology off.] “You know what you’re going to be called from this time on? You’re going to be called… [a harlot.]”

That’s what Brother Branham said she was according to the tradition that they said she was with a Roman soldier, [and] then palmed it off as a virgin birth.

Well, that’s nothing we had a Catholic girl got pregnant by a Catholic priest and she said that she had a child by the Holy Ghost, because the priest was the Holy Ghost to her.

Well, I don’t know, I thought the Holy Ghost had morals that forbad us to do those things. Why would He do… you know you can see people just… you can go to church and go to hell so fast your head will swim.

In fact, actually, going to church and praying is one of the quickest ways to go to hell. Because there’s nothing in the church and your prayers never get answered. You know, let’s face it. There’s a mess in this world. You know, you call a spade a spade. I’m quite well known for that.

You see, she said,

[92-4]  “I don’t care what I’m called, that has nothing to do with it. Be it unto me according to the Word of the Lord.”

That’s the same thing the woman turned the corner, now she can never go back. Now she gets pregnant. Joseph has a dream. She tells everybody, “I’m with child of the Holy Ghost.” They said, “Oh, ho, ho, you and who else.”

Brother Branham showed that nobody but Christ ever lived the life and never told a lie.

Because she turns around, “Your father and I sorrowed.”

He said, “What are you talking about? I must be about my Father’s business. You’re telling me about Joseph’s business. Come on. I’m not his son and you know, you’re lying now again, the second time.”

Hey, I want to tell you one thing, God’s going to catch you flat footed, brother/sister, there’s nothing hidden that won’t be revealed, nothing but will be shouted from the housetop.

Make your hearts clear; don’t leave this building full of sin, lies, everything that could be lodged in your heart, making up stories about people, everything else. Don’t do those things.

[92-5]  Oh, could everybody say that today? [I’ve turned the corner.] Oh, if people could really from the heart, all of us could say that (See?): “Be it unto me according to Thy Word, Lord.” and really mean it.

In other words, I’m stuck with It. Live, die, sink, swim. “I’ll know the real thing when it comes.” I suppose Mary said that. “Well, if this isn’t the real thing.” Oh, brother.

Hey, I want to tell you something. Alpha is Omega, don’t ever forget that was in the Gospels when Jesus Christ was there, now we’re talking about God Himself in His Son, whatever was there, whatever was done by anybody, there is a repeat in the Omega when the Son of man days are on this earth which they were.

Or you’ve got the same crew, they don’t believe that there’s a Bride that can bring forth Jesus Christ. Because, “Bless God; [we] are the bride that’s going to bring forth Jesus.”

In fact they don’t even know much about a Bride. They think the church is the bride. The true church ceased being a virgin way back yonder. Now, there’s a little group in here who always believes whatever God brings forth.

Now, he says here,

[92-5]  My really mean it. One or two or somewhere out in there is going to pick It up, [In other words, they’re going to catch it for this hour,] some predestinated that really means that, and, brother, you’re going to see sparks flying right then (That’s right.), when you really got …that there to meet that what’s coming, when that irrigation begins to fall on that Word. Yes, sir.

Now he’s talking about bringing the Son of God in flesh, let’s understand that. And the church is preaching vehemently, bringing back the King and causing this One to come back to earth, winning the world for God.

They fall in the same old trap that Catholicism is, “When we somehow by force or any way can convert the world to Christ, the Christ of our thinking, He’ll come back.” And my Bible says, “Eight people make the ark.”

Now, hey, the world condition is so rotten that no politician can make a right decision. Now come on, let’s face it. Every year they get suckered in.

Nixon got suckered in; oh, he was big mouth, “No taxes. No taxes.” Every time taxes are raised, it’s a bigger boondoggle, Congress grabs it, spends more money, deeper in debt.

…Sixteen tons, and what do you get?
Another day older and deeper in debt,
Saint Peter, don’t you call me…

One day they’re going to call for the debt. Whole country is going to be bust. Now, Reagan raised taxes, he suckered in. Bush suckered in. This time it’s not even a sucker job with Clinton. No, it isn’t a sucker job; they knew it and they’re raising taxes.

And he not going to clean up this debt by—what is it?—five billion bucks, or five hundred billion in the next five years, there’s no way they’ll be five hundred more billion worse in debt.

You think you can get rid of Senator Bird down there in Virginia? You’d have to kill him and Rostenkowski, because he’s head of the [House] Ways and Means, and Bird’s the biggest porkbarreler of the whole bunch.

And the guy in Pennsylvania is no different. I’m talking right off the top of my head, the truth. The guy in Pennsylvania you can see the… It’s a… memorial to the steam engine. Yeah.

Why don’t they put a memorial to Christ and feed kids? Do something real worthwhile. I’ll tell you when they feed kids; they’ll skim all the cream off.

If they allocate five billion for kids, they’ll take at least four billion of that. You can’t believe everything you hear. I, sort of, do though, if I hear the right thing. Oh yeah, if it’s the right thing, if it pleases me, I believe it.

There’s a man, I’ll show you his film in due time, he’s been accosted by the FDA, because cancer can be healed, any kind of cancer at all.

There’s really nothing to it, unless you’re drawing your last breath, forget it, or if your time, your trump is up, and God trumps your ace, you’re ready to go, you got to go, whether you’re ready or not.

They sat with the FDA, he and his friends that believe in this; and I have a lot of information on it, and also the product, it’s available to me. And they told him flat, “We are not interested in the cancer cure.” Now you say, “I don’t believe the FDA could say that.” Are you nuts?

When Dr. Aiken, the guy with the… make you have better energy, better health and get some fat off your bones and things like that.

When he literally spoke up against… the American Cancer Society, that they were nothing but a bunch of boondoggers, taking in billions of dollars and not spending it on proper research and helping people; I thought they were going to get that guy’s license, they’ll kill him.

But suddenly they had a little twinge of conscience, and they said, “Doctor, you’re right, but there’s nothing we can do about it, because it’s such a monolithic bureaucratic bunch.”

You mean I’ve got the money to help you from starving, I’ve got the money to lift your burden, and was given for that purpose, and the legislation is there and then I’ve got the right then somehow by divine intervention—it’s the devil—and I’m not going to give it to you?

Oh, come on. Read your Bibles. It’s over here that the sorcerers there, the 18th chapter, and he’s the druggist.

We’re reading in here. Okay. Now, one or two out there, now if you’re getting down to ‘eight make the ark’ are going to really believe this message. Now, this paragraph here, could really be referring to William Branham more than it’s referring to the Bride, on the grounds, he said,

[92-5]  …you’re going to see sparks flying right then, that’s right, when you really get out there and meet …there to meet that what’s coming, when that irrigation begins to fall on that Word. Yes, sir.

Now, we know positively, that though Pentecostals thought they really had a latter rain, they had the real anointing on the Word, Brother Branham was the one person that really had it; the rest didn’t.

They just thought they had the Pillar of Fire and they just thought they had this end time ministry. They did not have it. And that Spirit of God falling on… the Word of Almighty God, Brother Branham just introducing and preaching, proved absolutely, radically that the Word that that man brought was the Word of restoration of this hour.

Now, let’s say there’s a Bride that actually meets that, and said, “Look, we’re like Mary. We’ve turned a corner. We are not going to stand for any foolishness.

This is It a hundred percent and we know it, anything else is counterfeit, because this is It. Be it unto me according to that Word that that messenger brought.”

Now there’s no problem believing Brother Branham, because the Bible distinctly says, “He that receiveth whomsoever I send receives Me. He that receives Me receives the Father which sent Me.”

So we have no problem with Church Age messengers if you want to believe the Word just, even simply, mechanically. So, all right.

There’s got to be then, Brother Branham described that one, the same as latter rain describes it over there in the Book of Joel. You see? It talks about that.

He said, “That’s the Rapture. That’s the people that’s anointed for the Rapture.”

In other words, they are that Word the same as God anoints His Word and brings It to pass in this particular case, this Word, as in all particular cases, except prophecy about Russian, and Denmark, and God knows what.

But when you’re talking about God’s Bible and God’s people this is a prophecy and it’s manifested in human flesh. And let me tell you that’s exactly what happens, the sparks are sure going to fly, because we’re going to put on incorruptibility.

[92-6]  Now, what was it? The virgin mind, womb: virgin womb for the baby. Results? Eternal Life. Eve, a good a woman as she was, virgin as she was, but she first let the doubt come in by the word, a devil’s lie. What did he do? Brought her into contact in the wrong way. What was her child? Death. (And that’s exactly true.)

As Brother Branham said, “There was no sentence in there concerning death; they were meant to live.” And the fact of the matter was, they were meant to live as the Scripture says, “Replenish and fill the whole earth.”

Those two people were supposed to literally fill the whole earth and, absolutely, control it, and get rid of the devil, and destroy all of his works, and this whole earth filled with the glory of God. It never happened but it’s going to.

And there’ll be nobody on this earth in the Millennium, but that those elect children of Almighty God having taken over this earth and thrown the devil and the false prophets with the whole bunch into the lake of fire, into hell, rather, and then stand up on the day of judgment on the White Throne condemn the whole thing, where there’ll be nothing left.

Brother Branham said, “The flames leap up a thousand miles high to destroy every single germ even.”

She was supposed to bring forth life and she brought forth death; every child to live and not want to die.

[93-1]  Mary: virgin mind, virgin womb… When the devil tried to tempt her, at the time the Angel came to her then and said, “You’re going to have a baby,” Satan said, “Now, you better be quiet about that.”

The Angel said, “It’s an act of God.” And she no doubt thought of Isaiah 9:6; [He’s already repeated that, of course, over here,] “Behold the handsmaid of the Lord.” she said. What’s the results? Virgin birth; Eternal Word in her, and she brought forth Eternal Life.

Now what was the eternal Word in here? Faith in the understanding a virgin was going to bring that Seed the Messiah. Now she didn’t know it was going to be she. She just knew that Word had to be there and it was there.

And the Angel came and said, “This is that hour.” Then he let her know how it was to be. And that was sufficient for her, she believed it. See?

Now, we look at that. The second… yeah,

[93-1]  “You’re going to have a baby,” and Satan said, “Now, you better be quiet about that.” And the Angel said, “It’s an act of God.” And she no doubt thought of Isaiah 9:6;

Well, of course, she couldn’t help but think of it; he said already, she already knew it. She’d been taught it. So, now, we are likening ourselves to the virgin Mary.

Now listen, carefully, our testimony is the last and only true testimony of the church, Seven Church Ages, and it can’t be changed. We haven’t made a mistake.

It’s not going to be superseded, though many times, many people have made this testimony, and ours is the last and only true testimony according to Acts, the 3rd chapter.

So let’s go to Acts, the 3rd chapter, and we won’t just stop there; we’re going to go to Matthew 17 and so on. But in the 3rd chapter, in the middle of the verse 19 it says,

Now it tells you right here, at the time of refreshing that comes from the Presence of God—positively—that is the hour in which Jesus has to return to the earth. But hold it! He still can’t come.

And he won’t come until there’s a restoration of the Word right back to original. Now who is going to do it?

“Well, bless God,” said the pope, “that’s me.” Well, he’s a liar. He’s a liar. Everything he has is mixed up with voodoo and witchcraft; and he’s admitted it. So he’s a liar.

He’s no more vicar of Christ than I’m the prime minister of… of what? Who knows? Nepal, or some place, if they got one. Pakistan. Neither am I the Lord God that just came down from heaven. See what I mean? Let’s take it right to the logical conclusion.

Now it says, the heavens have to retain Him until that. Now the question is: how restoration is spoken of in the 17th chapter of the Book of Matthew. Now it says here in verse 10.

Now remember, Jesus had already said in the 28th verse of the 16th chapter,

And they saw him in his kingdom, which was the glorified Millennium: state of glorification. They said, “Just a minute. We thought Elijah was going to come.”

Now remember, this is a vision. This is a preview. This is a picture. This is not the real thing. This is yet to come. They knew that.

He said, “Let’s build three tabernacles.” He said, “No way.” Now, we thought Elijah…

Now he’s putting the two together. The Elijah of that hour foreran the suffering and the kingdom didn’t come. So there’s got to be another Elijah whoever he is, and who cares, but he’s got to come and he’s going to restore the Word.

Now that’s the whole secret, the restoration of the Word and that restored Word, can bring back Jesus in flesh.

The very thing Brother Branham said, he said, “The church cannot produce Him. They cannot produce Him in flesh. They can’t produce God in flesh. There’s no way.” See?

Now, we understand that. So, we have the correct testimony, this is Elijah which was to come before the burning. Now John had no burning.

He was the voice crying and going before God manifest in flesh, and they killed the flesh. They would have nothing to do with the flesh. Oh the spirit, hey, they didn’t have a clue. So, her testimony was spurned.

Now our testimony called believer’s supremacy, and we are, is going to bring forth the Son of man according to Hebrews 11:40 that says, “They without us cannot be made perfect.” Now, Hebrews 11:40. We’ll take a little look at that.

Now I don’t want to get too involved here, because I can prove my point as I go along, but I don’t want to get too involved. All right, now look here. It says here in verse 39.

Now Paul is speaking in terms of the people that are in the New Testament church; they’ve gone… there’s no longer any Jewish religion sequel. The bruised reed he broken, the smoking flax he quenched; their religion is gone. Never to be restored.

I don’t care what Israel tries to do, build a temple, build a thousand temples. There is no way the Pillar of Fire is going to come to them under their conditions.

It’s only going to come when they say, “Blessed he that cometh in the Name of the Lord, and that was Jesus we crucified, and rose again, then he better get here.”

And there’s a bit of a ground swell even now in Israel concerning Jesus of Nazareth. But the haters are still there, the seed is still there.

Now, the word ‘perfect’ in there, of course, cannot be brought to a conclusion. See, in other words, they cannot be placed in the Millennium. There’s no way that you’re going to get them there without us, because we are the New Testament church; they are the Old Testament church.

They had their Seven Church Ages; we have our Seven Church Ages. They had the tabernacle in the wilderness; we have our tabernacle now.

And Christ was our tabernacle and we, of course, are like the church in the wilderness, because we ourselves have no appointed resting place. There isn’t one as far as this earth is concerned.

We can only claim where our feet touch on this earth, when we come to the Millennium. We don’t have a claim. Why? Because it belongs to Satan, even though the price was paid. Satan has the lease for a certain length of time. Now,

Okay. Now, as you get to the 11th chapter of the Book of Hebrews, you’re going to peter out of course, in chapter 13.

But the 11th chapter signifies, shows the heroes of faith and shows these one that ran that gauntlet, before us, they showed themselves to be great and mighty Christians.

Now they cannot be made perfect without us, we already told you that. So, what does it say here?

Wherefore seeing we also like them go through the trial of faith, prove and vindicate God; and God vindicates Himself. We must lay aside the besetting sin, and the besetting sin is unbelief.

Adding a word, taking a word, turning down a true revelation; you must not do it. Now watch! Looking unto Jesus the Author and Finisher, the Alpha and Omega. Now, He’s Alpha, so He’s got to be Omega.

Now Paul traced Him as to who He was and he showed, positively and absolutely, that this One had a priesthood after the order of Melchisedec, and He was begotten from the dead, prior to that, He could not be a high priest, because the priests only came from Levi. They were Levites.

Now, we have a new high priest. And he comes from the tribe of Jacob, so the order of the priesthood have changed.

Now, you’ll notice that over here in the 5th chapter,

Now if He’s the Author; He’s also the Finisher. If he’s Alpha; he is Omega. Now look, He’s a high priest after the order of Melchisedec by the resurrection from the dead, and nobody else can do that.

Now let’s go back over the 5th chapter again.

Now, it tells you right here, there’s coming a day when you’ll be able to discern between good and evil. You will understand exactly what 1 John 3 is all about, when it tells you about Cain and Abel.

That Cain was of the wicked one, his paternity was of Satan through an animal, and Abel, was through the paternity and maternity of the two children of Almighty God, though they had gotten into sin and now death reigns in them.

But remember, Abel be in that first… that first part of first… of the Resurrection.

Now, he’s telling you here, that age is to come. And he says here, therefore, here is in here now, is a prophecy, an interpolation which was in the 11th to 14th verses.

Now, there again you’re looking at conclusion and perfection is the end, so therefore, if you’re looking at perfection you are not looking at the first principles, you are not looking at the time you first heard it, you are not looking at the first place of where Jesus is the Author, which is the Alpha.

You are going down here to the Omega. Now it says here, at the end time Omega,

Permit what? To go to the end where there is the Omega which is not only the Author now, but the Finisher. And he tells you what happens at the time of the Finisher, See, because the fire falls then.

Now, in verse 13.

He’s still talking to you about Melchisedec all the way down to the very, very down here to the 11th chapter of the Book of Hebrews, and down to the end of verse 40. We get into chapter 12 again, then it tells you here,

Lest you be wearied and faint, See, now, looking unto Jesus the Author and Finisher. Now you can’t look at the Finisher unless He’s there to finish it.

“Well,” you can say, “I can look at Him, because He’s all along, He’s the Author; He’s the Finisher.”

It’s not telling you that. It tells you they “cannot be made perfect without us,” because God has provided something better for us. And what is that better thing? A people that are not going to die; that’s part of it. That’s just part.

Now, he says here then concerning the end time, he’s concerning Sonship, the scourging, the training, and then it says, now no training or chastening seems good for the time being, later on it brings forth peaceable fruit of righteousness.

Now, what I’m trying to show you here, just briefly, is the understanding that there is an Alpha and Omega in the matter of faith.

There is the first time that faith was laid down, based upon the fact that Paul could preach, “This One appeared to me in the form of the Holy Spirit, this One that you killed and crucified, that rose again, that over five hundred people saw Him in the matter of several weeks—what was it?—forty days or so. They saw that One and the miracles that you understand now, positively proved that that One is risen from the dead.”

Now that is Alpha. Now if that’s Alpha, Omega has to be the same thing, and this is where people do not follow Brother Branham in the world. Only we follow him.

Matthew 12 proves, as Brother Branham said, “It’s obligated by Almighty God to come here in the form of the Holy Spirit and do now in this hour what He did back there in flesh.” That then is the Omega. So you’re looking unto Jesus the Author and the Finisher. All right.

Who is the Finisher? Oh my, if you don’t know where I’m going to turn now, you certainly don’t follow Lee Vayle, or haven’t all these years. You still don’t know the difference between a hen and an egg, and the Baptizer and the baptism.

I’m going to go right now to,

And it tells you right there, at this particular time, the Omega revelation will bring about a Resurrection which the Alpha could not do. Now remember, Alpha and Omega is the same. But Alpha is the starter and Omega is the finisher.

So don’t get all messed up in your minds, this is exactly why I said to begin with tonight, remember, in the gospels, Alpha and at this end Omega. And at the time of the Omega, greater works than these shall he do.

And that’s exactly why you got John 5 over here. And Brother Branham used it on different occasions. And he explained it in this very message we are looking at, and he says over here in the 5th chapter, 19th verse,

Now he doesn’t say that he is doing them. It just says he’s seeing them. So now God Himself not in the form of a human being, the Son, because the Son is up there, can’t come down… until the restoration. And the restoration is built upon vindication.

So you see right here in the Omega, the Omega is greater works than these, that you may marvel which is the same as over in John 14:12 “Truly, I say unto you, He that believes on me, the works that I do shall he do; and greater than these…” So the Father showeth him these things.

Now listen! When those things are shown to him and come to pass they’ve got to be for one reason only, and that is for vindication.

And what vindication? The vindication of God through the Word, so therefore, when this is restored, Elijah having come, then Jesus Himself can return and not before.

Now this is our testimony. We are it! William Branham came and preached. That was our angel. Let’s make no mistake about it; we are going to have a visitation of angels.

That’s a bunch of hogwash, and be carried right to hell with that cockamamie idea or any revelation that you have, that you think you can twist this, and make that Pillar of Fire, the soul of Jesus and all the junk that’s been tried to be peddled around this church behind my back and behind yours.

And if you believe it, you might as well beat it. I’m not going to kick you out, but it’s not going to be very long until you’re going to miss the Rapture, period. Or I’m going to miss it; one of the two.

Now there is our messenger. And he said it. Now you and I’ve either turned the corner like Mary and say, “Be it unto me according to that Word; that’s my Word, I’m it.” Ha, nobody else but us talks that way.

Mary’s was the Alpha testimony. Ours is the Omega testimony, because there’ll be no other people arise to testify to God.

Now if you don’t think that I’m right, let’s just get right back to 2 Thessalonians, the 1st chapter, I’m going to quit, because we don’t have anymore time. And Paul says at the time,

Now listen! Don’t get this all messed up, this is the same thing that he’s talking about in 1 Corinthians, when God begins to put everything under the feet of Jesus.

Now, just a minute, let’s just go ahead and look at that. Where is that in the Book of Acts? Is it the 3rd chapter? No, it’s got to be the 2nd, yeah,

“The Lord said to my Lord.” The Lord descends with the Shout and we meet the Lord in the air. Which Lord are you talking about? See, not Jesus-Only now. Jesus is not His own Father and vice versa. We’re talking now about the One that is His Son.

That said, “Restore to me the glory I had with you.” and the voice said, “I will certainly do that.” So now, he says here, “This One is going to have the kingdom put under His feet.”

But, it also says in the 3rd chapter, “There is no way that can happen until Elijah comes, restores the Word.”

Now, who’s the Elijah of this hour? The Lord Jesus Christ. Now is he talking about the man that’s on the throne? The One that had the pre-existence up there. He’s talking about God Himself.

It doesn’t matter how you try to understand this, get this flat, the Jehovah of the Old, is Jesus of the New, and he’s not talking about flesh. And he’s not talking about Son. He’s talking about Joshua, or Jehovah Savior which is the word ‘Joshua’.

And that Name was given to that Son, the Son bearing His Father’s Name. Come in His Father’s Name, and He said, “You won’t take Me.”

He said, “I’m Jesus. I’m Jehovah Savior. I have My Father’s Name.” Now he tells you right here, that flesh cannot descend.

The Lord Himself descend from heaven, He’s going to put all things under the feet of Jesus, and when that is done the church is under Him, and we go back to the Marriage Supper.

God appears to us in the symbol, likely the Pillar of Fire, because he appears in a symbol. Israel comes in, comes back and destroys the rest; all under His feet. Then at the end of the Millennium, He turns the kingdom back to the Father, the Father becomes all in all.

Now it says right here.

But here’s the main thing.

That tells you right there, the very One that brought the Word to Paul is here revealing It, and that was the Pillar of Fire. As Brother Branham said, “He left the flesh, and went back to the Pillar of Fire.”

That’s why you got people misunderstanding everything about Jesus. “Oh, He’s in comatose. He’s here. He’s evaporated. The body dis…” Oh come on, don’t be a nut. Time’s gone. So that’s it.

We were looking at this over here. Was that the… way back in page 30 over here.

[93-2]  All right, [he said,] Jehovah’s bride, [well,] …Jehovah’s bride, [got into the] mixed seed… [what have you.]

We can continue tomorrow morning without reviewing hardly anything, just start working, concerning the virgin Mary and her testimony, because that’s what we were up against at this point.

She had the testimony. She believed the messenger. She never equivocated. She said, “I’ll take that.” Now my question is this; how many are going to be in that Bride? Very, very few.

Let’s bow our heads in prayer.

Heavenly Father, we come to You tonight now, at the close of this preaching service, to enter into the communion and foot washing Lord, which has been ordained of You and commanded. And Father, we are happy to obey this commandment.

We know there’s very little in your Word that’s a direct commandment. It’s actually a matter of life and revelation that comes, because of that life, guiding and helping and Lord, we know that Your Word never fails.

And Father, we don’t want to fail Your Word, so we just open our hearts now at this time and may we gather truth and understanding from Your Word, even more, as we study a little bit, and then we have these elements. Help us we pray, in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

Brother Vayle continues with the Communion Service.
