Things That Are To Be #10

Let us pray.

Heavenly Father, we remember Your prophet said he had a little gift to get out of the way, and he could do that, Lord. He could isolate himself with You in that trance and he could bring back Your Word of revelation. And we know that we’re a lot different.

We do not have actually a gift to get out of the way although we might in some little measure do that, nor do we have a gift Lord, that, by ourselves, we can denude our minds of all the old rubbish that was there by our choice and our ignorance and by learning and others teaching us, but Lord, we know it’s incumbent upon us that though we cannot get out of the way, we must remove all these hindrances from our hearts and our minds Lord, that come against the Word.

So help us tonight to be very obedient to what is said before us by vindication. And may we simply accept it as the literal truth of Almighty God set before us and, thereby Lord, eliminate all those things that are antichrist and then be fully one with You, by Your Word, tonight. Help us to this end because we know that is the ultimate.

In Jesus’ name, we ask it. Amen.

You may be seated.

Now, we’re up to Number 10, I do believe, on ‘Things That Are To Be,’ and last Sunday we found Brother Branham setting forth that the opening of the Seven Seals revealed a previously unknown mystery concerning a certain facet of things that are to be.

And, of course, we believe shortly will be that facet was relative to what we will be doing, when we enter into the reality of eternal life and the heavens and the paradise that God has even now prepared for us.

It will be just like it was when Adam and Eve were started on their journey. As it is now on earth, so our future home will be a place of tremendous variety and activity. Remember, we went into that. And even though all nature is now struggling in the throes of death, still in its present, negative condition, it speaks of a place where the struggle will be over and the negative goes to the positive.

Now, Brother Branham illustrated that one time by saying, “If I have a shadow of an elephant on the wall and as the object approaches closer to what it really is so it’s no longer a shadow, but you see what is making the shadow turns out to be a spindly, little man,” he said, “there’s something wrong.”

So, what we’re looking at here is that we have a shadow of this life which is certainly fraught with elements of danger, sickness, disease and consequent death, now that being a negative as we approach to the positive, what’s it going to be?

Well, it’s not going to be the overwhelming condition of the Lake of Fire where everything that should be destroyed and ought to be destroyed is going to be destroyed… no.

It’s going to be what is negative here, having bypassed the true Spirit and Word-body, we’re going to come into the full perfection of what is nowhere in a negative, going to the ultimate of the positive.

In other words, all the things that God did originally, now expresses what is to come, or as we have borne the image of the earthy, we will bear the image of the heavenly, because the original pattern was heavenly, and we are in the negative of the original.

That’s the original positive and we are going to come back to that reality. Actually, we are going to gain a reality that was there that Adam and Eve forfeited. In the beginning it was all good, everything was in continuity from God and with God, but Satan defrauded Adam and Eve and took over the government of the world… that’s the whole world and in every facet, everything under his control.

And even though God, in and through Jesus Christ, paid a great price for redemption and deliverance, we are still under the penalty of sin and death that Adam and Eve brought upon us, so that Satan is still ruling and we are dying and only when the King returns, rather the King returns with the Bride, will the rule of Satan be over, and the dominion of the kingdom of heaven on earth come to pass.

Now, as we begin to read page 17, paragraph 55, we find Brother Branham telling how Satan has corrupted mankind through his civilization of reason, instead of one in faith in God and His Word, and we will read that shown very conclusively as we go into Romans 1 again.

But, going here now, where Brother Branham is talking about the negative, which positive started in the Garden of Eden, and had they continued through the period of time allotted them to come to the Tree of Life and immortality, we would not have had this interruption that Brother Branham speaks of.

But this interruption of the negativity, negative is soon going to be done away with. Now, Satan is still in control, so on paragraph 55 we read:

[55]  Now, in this world that we live in, [it’s controlled by Satan,] I want to prove to you, education, science, civilization, all things that we seemingly so enjoy are of Satan and they will perish.

Okay. Let’s just take a look at this and we go to 1 John, the 2nd chapter, and in verses 15 through 17.

Now, if you see what he’s looking at here, he says, “All that is in the world” what we’re grappling with as citizens of the kingdom controlled by the devil now, we’re citizens of two kingdoms.

Unfortunately, we are in this realm of the enemy and there’s nothing we can do about it anymore than anybody has for 6,000 years until there is the second half of the first Resurrection and then the consummation where the Bride comes back in the Millennium.

So he says here… he’s admonishing the believer, “That if any man love the world, the love of the Father is not in him.” There’s something wrong with the person that is involved in and loves his involvement. Now, what’s the involvement? All that’s in the world.

If the motivation comes from the lust of the flesh, the lust of the eye, the pride of life and that is not of God they are those things which are foisted upon us here by the enemy… we’re going along with it, even though we know that it’s not good, and if you go along with it to the extent that John mentions here, it says that you’re simply earthbound creatures; you’re not sitting in heavenly places; the love of God is not in you; you’re not baptized with the Holy Ghost.

Now, we go here to Matthew and we see the perfect picture of this in Matthew, chapter 4, and this certainly is not original. I know that many, many people have looked at this also, and I wouldn’t be surprised Brother Branham spoke on it at one time or other.

The 1st verse of Matthew 4.

Now, he didn’t say that you don’t use bread. He said, “Just don’t get carried away with it, because there’s something far greater.” and Paul speaks of that that even famine can come to the dedicated, baptized believer with the Holy Ghost, and that does not separate him from God.

Notice: a separation from God comes by the disbelief and the turning down of that Word. So, don’t get carried away with your… you know… and become very ridiculous in your thinking. Bread is necessary it has its place, but the place is inferior to the Word of God, and any principle concerning our livelihood must come from the Word of God.

In other words, don’t try to bend God’s arm to do something about His Word that you think is in there, and you can use. So, therefore, you see, the Word of God is of no value to us unless there is a genuine revelation of what that Word really means.

Now, we saw them try to do that in the time of Jesus and they corrupted the Word of God by saying, “Well, I’m going to use this idea here, and that idea over there, which will actually give me a leeway not to do the Word of God that’s set forth over here.” Well, there’s got to be a reconciliation in the whole Word of God so that we are subject to It.

Now, notice the next thing he said here: he said,

Now, John tells us here very, very conclusively, as Brother Branham says, “That so-called… this that we seemingly enjoy, what Satan has set before us.” However, we go to Romans, the 14th chapter, and you will find Paul saying the same thing that Jesus said, the same thing that John said, in 14:17.

Now, remember, the life is more than meat, the body is more than meat and the life is… yea, the life is more then meat and the body is more then what we wear… our clothing and all those things. So, see, all this fits in there.

So the ordinary life that man lives is not to ever come to the place where these things mean too much to him or he’s going to have trouble.

Now, Brother Branham says here correctly that:

[55]  …all these things that we seemingly enjoy today, [and notice: seemingly so enjoy.]

There is enjoyment in them, there is satisfaction in them, but the satisfaction must be understood with this tempering: that all of these things pass away with the use thereof. We have not brought anything into the world and it is certain we shall not carry anything out of the world.

The only thing that we actually come into the world with is that gene in the soul wherein there lies the power of choice to believe or not believe, which means to take the Word of God or not take the Word of God and then, remember, also, we are to use all of the things that God gave us here with great discretion.

As the Scripture said Paul, himself, said that he will not allow any of these things to take hold or precedence over him. But we enjoy the things that are here, and we don’t enjoy them to the place where we allow them to take precedence over our lives, our service and our living, plain Godly lives in the Lord Jesus Christ.

Now, he said:

[55]  …Brother, you say, “Brother Branham, civilization!” Yes, sir! This civilization came by Satan. Genesis 4 proves it.

And you’ll see where Cain and his offspring were the ones that had cities and made great use of materiality where the children of God, the sons of Light, were pastoral; they were farmers they raised animals and things; they were shepherds and what have you.

[55]  But Cain’s son started this civilization, building cities, and organs, and so forth.

Now, that doesn’t mean, that some people teach, that music is not acceptable. I know that a number of years ago certain preacher said, “Well, music is of the devil and…” But Brother Branham said that music also was of God and was used in worship.

So, you simply don’t run with everything that you simply spot in the Message or anything that you think because of certain inventions and all. The actual fact of the matter is that if you actually look at the Scripture you’re going to find that all power is of God, and every bit of power that Satan has and uses is of God perverted and all knowledge and wisdom is of God.

What you see here: everything in this earth can be used and can be utilized and God put it there for man to have dominion over it. And I’m very, very certain, that musical instruments are of God in the basic, original sense as everything else is, but people use it wrong. It’s just like there’s rhythm… music has time and rhythm… there’s a particular beat to it.

But, as I’ve told you on many occasions I was told years ago as a little kid I don’t think I was any more than eight or nine years of age, when they said that jazz is going to be the downfall of America.

And look what it’s come to. It’s come to an absolute jungle… what has come out, out of jazz. And the beat that’s in America, until you’ve got the gangster rap and everything that is so filthy, so motivating everybody, that all you’ve got to do is start playing a tune and you watch the whole world mess up.

And so you simply can’t take everything that Brother Branham said isolated from the other sermons he preached and run with it.

So, as I mentioned, this preacher, he’s a nice guy, no doubt, and we’ve had our differences but I never did agree with him, I just wouldn’t… I wouldn’t fuss with him.

But there is a music that is of God and there is a music that is of the devil. Now, if you’re like Tipper Gore, kind of Christian, I think she was… I think I’m certain about this now… that she was one of those who looked at her children and knew that they liked rock music, so they began putting Christian words to it.

Well, that’s a lot of hogwash, because you’re right back where they said, years ago, that jazz will cause the downfall of America. And it’s done it. You don’t think it’s done it, look at your brothels, your bars and everything else where all these things are. I mean it’s very easy to see that what we call civilization, which is of the enemy, and try to adapt it to the kingdom of God is doomed to absolute failure and your judgment for trying to do it.

Your judgment will be greater than the guys who are simply messed up and you think you can take something with this messed up corruption and work with it in the face of God. That’s Cain! That’s Cain! That’s not righteousness.

All right.

[55]  …And civilization came by knowledge. Knowledge is what the devil sold Eve in the garden of Eden and caused her to transgress God’s commandments. [Now, that’s exactly 2 Corinthians 11, we read it time after time after time. Now] there will be a civilization in the world that we’re going to, but it won’t be this kind of a civilization. For in this civilization we have sickness, sorrow, lust, death; everything in this civilization, [that is so terrible and horrible, as we know it.] But there’ll be none of those things [in the civilization to come. Now] we won’t need science. [Now] science if a perversion of the original anyhow.

Now, he explains this: now, true science is not a perversion of anything if you are looking at the fact of what God created in its original form. There’s no problem with that whatsoever.

But what you’re looking at is from the very beginning of what Satan did with what was already there, and when he began to corrupt the Word, as Michener said, “From that point on you corrupt the language everything becomes corruption.” I don’t even understand how the guy was able to bring that philosophy out, but it’s the truth when he wrote on South Africa. It’s the absolute truth.

When your language is gone, everything is gone, and, you know, he is actually quoting from the Book of Deuteronomy, and the Book of Revelation, “To add a Word or take a Word,” bringing the language into a perversion where the meaning is not simply extended, but it is perverted, and he said, “then it’s gone.” And that is true.

And when the Word of God lost its original revelation under Paul, it went into a steady decline until Brother Branham brings out: the Bride went into the ground, and now She has to come back.

Okay.

[55]  …Science is a perversion of the original anyhow.

What science is he talking about? Science today… because science is not simply content to understand what is there. It is not even content to put together what it could put together in some complex form that might possibly do good… now, they never can. It always backfires.

But they’ve come to the place where it’s entirely diabolical, and that’s exactly what you’re looking at. Exactly how diabolical things are to this day. Now:

[55]  …Science is a perversion of the original anyhow. See? You split a molecule… split atoms and do so-and-so and you blow up.

In other words, the wrong treatment of materiality. So… now, he says here, “Science is a perversion.”

Okay. Let’s go back to the Book of Romans and we’re going to look at this and you’ll find that it’s true.

Now, that means to hold it down. So, right off the bat, you have way back there at the beginning of the age of civilization Brother Branham is talking about, that came to the perversion that led to the flood, that this is what you’re looking at.

And you got the same thing right today because, “As it was in the days of Noah…” So, there’s a perversion here of where people hold down the truth.

Now, if you don’t think they don’t hold down the truth, let’s just ask the question that Brother Branham was… I mean he was really steamed up about when this woman in Louisville… I’m sure it was… was operated on for cancer and she was killed, as Brother Branham said, “By a bunch of butchers.”

Now, you answer me this question, “How come there’s billions and billions and billions of dollars raised for the American Cancer Society, and there are more people employed in the cancer business than there are people with cancer, and only 4 per cent of that much even goes to the people that need help?

Now, you can’t bring a cancer patient a cure to the people or the FDA or the AMA will destroy you. Now, that’s a fact. And don’t tell me it’s not a fact, because I know my material.

I saw a woman healed in Mexico of cancer. She was right around eighty years of age. A doctor had pulled her tooth everything seemed to be fine but in a few days the jaw swelled up all black, black blood coming out she thought, “Well, I’ll go and he’ll do a little bit and I’ll be okay.”

He got instantly afraid. He said, “Woman, we have got to get you to a doctor”… took a biopsy full of cancer.

They said, “Oh, we’ll cut away her jaw.” Cut your face off! And her husband said, “No way, shape and form, because I know a man that went to Mexico under Dr. Guinier, and that man was given up to die with cancer, and he came back seventeen years ago perfectly whole.

Within two week’s time that woman’s jaw was going down, the blood was pink, and she was over the hump. But he can’t practice in America! No. Because his people are going to get healed.

And if you get healed, the love of money, being the root of all evil, and this piled on top; you haven’t got a prayer to get the help you need. They’ve outlawed even chaparral that Brother Branham and the Indians and everybody else knows cures cancer. But we can get it anytime we want… it’s just known as the ‘grease brush,’ anybody can get it out there in Tucson, Arizona.

They’ll take anything and everything you got! You say, “Brother Vayle, where is this going to end?” We’re going to read it. There’s only one place it can end. The destroyers will be destroyed with their destruction with the devil.

Now, I get steamed up about these things, because I’m not eighty years old for nothing. Just like the ministry destroyed healing so the people can’t have any faith for it, and that’s how there’s the only way you can really have faith for healing is for the people to be so under the influence of the revelation of the Word of God concerning healing, that they all get healed.

That’s why I told you years ago that Brother Reynolds, who was a good friend of mine, and he was the guy that… he was a Oneness preacher but a most amazing and marvelous preacher. I mean he was one of the best… brilliant man, but a real servant of God.

And I said, “Brother Reynolds, I’d like to know, “How is it that your church gets all these healings and baptisms with the Holy Ghost?”

He said, “Son, you get what you preach for!”

Let me tell you flat: the church has stopped preaching the truth. So, what do you get? You get the lie. And when you get the lie, you cannot get the life of the Word of God manifested in that Word. Which means you don’t get it into your body and I don’t get it into my body.

We told you how in Lima for weeks and months we actually prayed and prayed, and it went into a chain prayer for Brother Branham to come, and in 1957, the first time in five years the gift of healing went into operation and never again.

That’s why Brother Branham said, “Lee, you and I are just alike.”

I said, “What do you mean, Brother Branham?”

He said, “I’ve got a little gift of healing and nobody wants it; you’ve got a little gift of teaching and nobody wants it.” And I couldn’t understand until last year what he meant. Nobody wanted his gift of healing, because the people made the gift operate! They were too stinkin’, dog-rotten, filthy devil, lazy. Yeah.

So, what happens now? Where’s the Oral Roberts that could pick up the kids and with sticks hanging… legs like sticks like cooked macaroni and put them down and watch them run? They’re all off the scene. Because they wouldn’t pay the price! And they still don’t pay the price.

So the preachers are afraid to preach unless nothing happens and nothing’s happening. So, now you got a bunch of dumb dogs that can’t bark, and a bunch of stupid dogs that love vomit. Oh! You talk about a picture! That ought to frost their chops.

Now, you wonder why people don’t like my ministry… shu-uew! If I were sitting in the pew like those birds, I wouldn’t like it either! At least I’ve got the guts to tell the truth.

[55]  …Science is a perversion…

It tells you right here they actually hold down the truth and turn it into a lie until the lie becomes a truth to them. What if it’s not the truth to God? I hope you caught something, because that’s the secret of vindication… God does not answer back to some lying Pentecostal, Baptist, Methodist, cultish, pervert of hell.

[55]  …You take gun powder, and bang this, and kill something. You take the car and take gasoline out of the earth, materials from the earth, loosen up the fibers so it can blow up, and go down the road ninety miles an hour and kill somebody.

I wonder if Brother Branham, knowing his death… he didn’t know his death was going to come quite that way, but he knew he was going to die on that trip, without a doubt. Perhaps by then he knew it would be by an automobile accident.

He was driving the speed limit 65 mph when those drunks came by and veered on his side of the road. The speedometer locked in at 65 mph. Sixty-five mph is fine if the law says so and the roads can take it, but nothing can take it when a guy is drunk and on the wrong side of the road.

Now, let’s talk about liquor. How come our government doesn’t pass strict laws about liquor? “Because,” as Brother Branham said, “They run the hooch business,” and they get all the taxes so they got to excuse everybody.

You want to kill somebody? What you do is just go and kill him and then take one big shot of booze glub-glub-glub-glub and throw it away.

Say, “Well, you know, I killed a guy when I was under the influence.”

“Oh, well, that’s all right then.”

Now, you learned a secret. Want to give it to somebody? Government sell you the hooch? I’m not lying to you. I’m telling you the truth. And don’t think it isn’t being done. If I could think that up, anybody could think of it. I don’t take my time thinking up junk like that.

[55]  …See? Oh so nervous, squeeze, and hurry up, we got to push hard. [That’s with these cars… everything going so fast.] Oh, see, it’s all of the devil. The kingdom of God will not have automobiles, airplanes, or any scientific achievement.

You won’t need it. Brother Branham said, “You’ll be able to go with the speed of thought.” Why would you want some junk like that? That’s like Obock Aggapian you know, when he knew I was coming, he got scared.

He didn’t want to come to the door and I was with a certain man and we got in the house and he was nervous and all. He said, “Well, I knew you two were coming,” he said, “and I know it’s great danger,” he said, “you’re against me.”

I said, “My brother, I don’t even know except that I’ve heard good things about you, you’re a visionary.”

And I buttered him up, in plain English, and he fell hook, line and sinker because I wanted to ask him questions. He began unloading his tremendous vision.

You know what his vision for the Millennium was? Great big, plastic domes, fully air-conditioned, and if you wanted to go somewhere, you went into a telephone booth and you rang the number and whee-eet! you were there! Hogwash!

And his ministry was built upon miracles… the funny kind! Yeah. Yeah, he could even read minds. I remember Sister Anderson told me one day: she used to entertain him and her sister… she entertained him for dinner oftentimes, and one day… he used to walk in very handsome man, I must admit that women would fall for him left and right, other men, too, I guess… this homosexual, filthy age we’re in.

But he was quite a guy and he has a beautiful white garment on, you know, like one made out of one piece and a kind of a gold belt, like, you know, a chain around his waist, and she thought in her mind, she said, “Now, isn’t this just like a scene of when Jesus came and visited Mary and Martha?”

He turned to Sister Anderson, “You’re the first one to know my identity.”

Hoo-oo! Hot dog! Plastic domes and telephones! Pretty hard to beat, isn’t it? if you want to be a kook. And then they call us a kook. They call us the cult. See?

Okay.

[55]  …The kingdom of God will not have automobiles… or any scientific achievement. [We won’t need it.] No! It won’t have any education at all. [Now,] it’ll be an education so supreme to this…

Now, Brother Branham, in my books, should have used the word ‘enlightenment.’ Enlightenment, revelation, but I, myself, I know what he had in mind. You’ll get an education but it won’t be an education, but it is an education.

You know what I’m saying there. It’s going to be an enlightenment, it’s going to be a further of understanding, it’s going to be in real harmony with what God intended. All right.

[55]  …That this won’t even be thought of. [Well, that’s true. When every tear is wiped away, there’s no more remembrance of anything.] See? Education, civilization, and all this comes from Satan. [All right.]

That’s true. Now, where did Adam get his knowledge? By the Holy Spirit. He directed the animals, and like Brother Branham said, “The Holy Spirit is to direct us.”

All right.

[56]  Now, if you say, “Brother Branham, why do you read then?” See, just like, why do I wear clothes now? In the civilization that was to come, it was first they didn’t need any clothes; because they were veiled.

Now, we look at this picture… as Brother Branham said, “They were veiled.” Well, was there like a holy glow around them? Or was the veiling in a different manner?

Now, I’m going to tackle it and go into this from a viewpoint that’s interesting to me, because Brother Branham just talks about they were veiled; they had no reason to wear clothes, because they didn’t know they were naked, so, therefore, the veiling had to do a lot with the not wearing of clothes, because they didn’t even know they were naked.

There was nothing in their knowledge that was anything contrary to what would be perfect, spiritual decorum in the garden.

So, looking at Mark, I guess I got down here, chapter 7, and verse 21, it says:

Now, they didn’t know the first thing about that… completely oblivious to a true sex act, which they were entitled to, being married, which did not come into being at that particular time, so, you see, there was nothing in there that even gave this a suggestion. But then Satan came along with his suggestion.

Now, let’s go to Matthew, the 5th chapter, and we read 5 and 8

In other words, these pure hearted, undefiled creatures at that time, walking in the light of the revealed Word of that time… all they could see was God, like the old fisherman in the boat Brother Branham talked about when he said, a little voice said, “Can you see God?”

He said, “My mommy couldn’t tell; and the Sunday School teacher couldn’t tell; and the preacher was at a loss of words;” and he said, “Sir, can a person see God?” He said, “Son, that’s all I ever do is see God.” See? The man was walking in light. Okay.

Let’s go to Romans now, the 14th chapter, and in verse 20, and the second part:

So, basically, there, as we said again, there is nothing that isn’t pure in itself. There’s not one thing even today that God made is out of cater. Not one thing. It’s what people are doing with it. That’s why it’s going to all be dissolved and brought back the way it was and better than ever, of course, because we’ll be in a different time frame.

Now, let’s go to Titus, the 1st chapter, over here past Timothy, I guess it is, and 15 and 16.

Now, in other words, unto worship and serving God, no way… they’re reprobate. See? This is why we need the washing of the water of the Word, the Blood, all these things Brother Branham speaks of, we go by.

So, what I’m looking at here is that these two in the Garden, fresh from the Hand of God, they were absolutely impervious to anything and everything that was evil, as long as they just stayed in that particular place, with their minds closed to everything but the Word of God.

Now, see, we’re coming to that, where the mind, where the womb of the mind is shut up in this hour to the Word of God and nothing else will come in. That’s why, I think today, we’re coming to the place where we’re like Abraham.

How much feeling did he have toward procreation at the age of ninety-nine, a hundred? Nothing. He, seminally speaking, sexually, he was dead. And even Sarah never had an idea, a thought.

And talking about this in Abraham… I’m looking at the thought that we’ve come to the place of such complete dedication to the Word and it’s in the hands of God… we’ve gone past the place of dedication unto works and morals and this and that, gifts and everything else; winning souls, which are all fine, I’m not against it.

I’m for it, but we’ve come to the place of the dedication of the Word to where we realize, as Brother Branham, there’s no more sensations and no more signs and no more this and no more that. It’s live, die, sink or swim!

And that is not a cliché, that is the truth, because I can tell you right now, I don’t have one feeling that makes me feel good, or one idea that I’m superimposing on anything to give me any degree of exhilaration, any monumental faith in this last hour that makes me know that I know that I know. Either this is it or forget it! That’s all.

You say, “Brother Vayle, it sounds like it’s out of your hands.”

You bet your sweet life, it’s out of our hands. We’ve passed the perpendicular, and when you go past the perpendicular, the center of gravity, the gravity takes over and there’s nothing you can do about it. Now, either we’re going to fall down or fall up.

You say, “How can you do that?”

Because I ask you a question, “Which way is up?” The North Pole is up and the South Pole is up. So, that’s your answer… kind of facetious and facile but it’s just the same, there it is.

[56]  …Now, they didn’t know they were naked.

In other words, they did not know the ramifications involved concerning their own lives, just like little, tiny children. That’s why the Bible said, “You got to be like a tiny child to get into the kingdom of God.” See?

In other words, all of the appurtenances, everything is there, but there’s no knowledge, there’s an innocence, which is wonderful; not righteousness but an innocence and then, if the tempter is gone, nothing left to tempt you, you’re perfectly wonderfully, perfectly contained in the condition that God brought you into this earth.

There’s nothing wrong with it. Everything is so cooked up, it’s pitiful, it’s all in the heads. Now the same thing is in the way of civilization… just a minute now,

[56]  …Now we know that we are… [what we are here in this world]… sin abides here, then you’ve got to wear clothes. But it wasn’t so in the beginning; there was no sin. See? Now, the same thing is in the way of civilization. Altogether, we read, we write, we do this, but don’t ever get adjusted to that; don’t ever make that your god for that is the god of communism.

What does he mean? Materialism! Materialism! See? Now, materiality is everything that’s tangible and everything even that is not tangible, as far as you know, like gasses and various elements that haven’t come together in such an abundance to form a mass that you can deal with it.

You often wonder how scientists can weigh gasses. I don’t know how they do it but they do it. How can they measure something of 100,000th of an inch? See? I don’t know how they do it. Then they go to thousands… don’t ask me, but they’re on the beam.

But, you know, it’s not going to do them one bit of good, because you’re not going to measure gasses over there. You won’t be messing with these things. It’s so entirely different the mind of man is boggled.

Yet Brother Branham says, “Over there, there’s a tremendous variety of everything… landscape, and tremendous activity because people are working.” I don’t know what people are going to do that don’t like to work. Well, they’ll likely get burnt up, I imagine, that’s the only thing I know.

[57]  …See? It’s not of Jesus Christ. Jesus Christ is by faith, not what you can scientifically prove, but what you believe.

Now, here’s the point: what you believe about creation, God having done it and put it in order and only God keeps it in order, then the only way that man can be in order with God in creation is through that Word. Because all things were made by the Word and all things are maintained.

So, keeping in definite continuity with God, that was the secret. Brother Branham said, “They got out of continuity,” causing that interruption. And we’re going to get back into continuity.

Now, had Adam and Eve done that, there would have been no problems which there are in the world today that causes God to say He will destroy those that destroy the earth. Now, pick up your papers. Every time you do, there’s somebody trying to sue somebody, because they’re dumping bilge in the retention pond at the airport, which goes into the Clearwater, so now there’s going to be a lawsuit.

Well, it’s not going to amount to very much, because they’re going to find a way how to get around it and, if they don’t, we’re still stuck with what’s in the earth now and you simply can’t get rid of it. See? There’s no way.

This world here has to be dissolved, and when it is dissolved and brought back, it would be utter folly on the part of God to turn the devil loose again or to turn anybody loose that could begin to defile. That’s why the Bible says, “In the heavens that are to come, that New Jerusalem and the new government, nothing will defile… no liars, no this, no that.”

Now: Not what we scientifically prove, but what we believe. Remember: faith is a revelation. Brother Branham says:

[58]  I can’t scientifically prove to you, tonight, in this building, there is a God, but I know He’s here, and by my… but by my faith vindicates it.

Now, notice he says, “I can’t prove…” Hey! How can you prove to anybody anything when they’re completely blind to it and don’t want to believe it anyway? As the old saying is, “There’s none so blind as them that don’t want to see.” Now, listen again:

[58]  I cannot scientifically prove to you tonight…

In other words, “I can’t take a test tube and I can’t put God on the scales and weigh Him. I can’t make Him come here and manifest Himself to you in such a way that you’ll believe.” In other words, “That you know that you know.” Hey, look, I know that’s a piece of paper. I don’t know what made it and I care less, but that’s a piece of paper.

I know there’s writing on it. I know there’s ink there. I don’t know what the ink came from, but I know it’s there. Now, you see, that’s what he’s talking about. Bring it right down here where you can put it through a test tube in some machine and take a spectroscope or something and, you know, all that kind of junk and figure it out.

[58]  …in this building, that there is a God, but yet, I know He’s here, but by my faith vindicates it.

In other words, Brother Branham says, “I cannot prove to you, as I can hold up a piece of paper with ink on it and printing, that there is a God, but by my faith, I can bring Him into manifestation, following my word that there is a God, He will vindicate me that I’m speaking the truth.” And He did it time after time after time.

But you’re not going to make people believe it. The very fact that’s a supernatural picture doesn’t mean anything to anybody. Naah. How can it mean anything? At the end time where they don’t want to retain God in their mind, how in the world are you going to have anything that’s true about God in your mind when you don’t want to have Him there in the first place?

In other words, if there’s no ‘thing-a-ma-jig-what-cha-ma-call-it’, what are you trying to drum up some evidence or some date concerning it? There’s no such thing as a ‘thing-a-ma-jig-what-cha-ma-call-it’. So, there’s no God! What do you want to put Him in your mind for? So you wheet! cast Him out. And He’ll cast you out, too. After all… tit for tat.

“I can’t prove it, but,” he said, “I can see it vindicated by my faith.” Now, remember, Brother Branham’s faith was: If God said, “Raise Abraham Lincoln tomorrow,” he’d do it, or call the armies of the earth to shoot him down.

Now, you realize that means bring about a resurrection. You say, “Well, I don’t believe that.” I do, because Jesus made a resurrection in Lazarus that wasn’t just coming back from the dead. The guy was already turning to liquids and the bugs were eating him.

[58]  …Abraham could not scientifically prove to you that he was going to have a baby by that woman and here her nearly a hundred years old but his faith confirmed it. See? Didn’t need any scientific proof. Why the doctors would’ve said, “The old man’s crazy, out there saying he’s going to have a baby by that woman, him a hundred years old and her ninety.” But you see God said so, so it doesn’t take science, it takes faith to believe God’s Word, not science.

Now, he said, “I can’t scientifically prove to you tonight in this building that there is a God, but yet I know He’s here, but by my faith he vindicates it.”

Let’s go to Romans 1, and you know I just love Romans 1, and we’re going to read 19 and 20.

Now, it says right here that these people actually know what they claim they don’t know and they’re responsible. Now, let’s look at that. So, according to this statement, man is actually equipped or endowed by God by virtue of his creation by God to see that all creation proves there is an absolute beyond creation of which he, himself, is a part.

Now, see? He doesn’t want to admit that. Now, by virtue of the fact that man, himself, is a part of His creation and he is and he can’t do one thing about it; lie like the devil, everything else. Darwinian theory is everything. He knows that there is something beyond what he, himself, is a part of, because he is a thinking creature.

Now, he’ll tell you, “Well, there was a big bang.” What caused the big bang? Any idiot knows there’s got to be something in the way of chemicals or gases to make some kind of a bang. You say, “The thing jumps.” Wonderful! Then there’s got to be something in there, an energy to make the thing jump.

Now, Mexican jumping beans are cute… we used to buy them… put them on the counter… jump. Hey! Why does that bean jump? There’s a worm in there. That’s what they tell me, there’s a worm in that bean. Certain times the bean goes… hoop!

Now, anybody knows a bean, in itself, can’t do that. Now, there’s electricity that makes magnets that causes contacts. But there’s also magnetic forces in the world and you get them and you get a magnet out of the soil and you can mold that to another magnet and then you can take a knife and you can wipe the knife with that blade back and forth with your magnet and it’ll pick up a couple little screws.

And then you can magnetize little screws and pick up another screw until the weight will break the magnetic force. There’s lots of things in nature. There’s billions of things in there we don’t even know about. It tells you right here that man, being a part of nature, he positively knows there’s somewhere there’s an absolute and he’ll call the absolute a “big bang.”

And he said there was energy out there. And where did the energy come from? See? No matter how people try to duck, this Scripture is true. Man, being a part of nature, knows there’s got to be something there. What is it? Well, now they’re calling it “The Force.” Merkel calls it “The Breath of God.” Well, hallelujah! I’ll tell them the truth: it’s God. And they don’t like it… that’s fine by me.

The simple acknowledgement, Now listen: the simple acknowledgement of a God Who is separate and apart from, and yet completely sovereign over all creation, is the basis of the truth from which one goes to a spiritual revelation, and, hence, Reality, and a relationship to God.

Change that simple, basic concept and man destroys himself through lust. I read it right here, and I put it all together so you can understand it perfectly because that’s what it’s saying. It’s already in man, reasoning, to look at nature and say, “There’s something that’s an absolute somewhere.”

He knows that no matter how big he talks, he’s merely smarting off. The fool! Not the scientist “The fool has said in his heart, ‘There is no God’.” I like what one preacher said. He said, “I heard a preacher one time discuss that and he said, ‘Well, God just looks down at that idiot and says, “Phewt! He’s a fool.” Walks on, doesn’t even give him the time of day. Calls him a fool.

[59]  So our schools are a blowup. [They’re a bust.] God never said, “Go forth and make schools,” or even have Bible schools. Did you know that? He said, “Preach the Word.”

All right. What does that tell you? It tells you that every church is a Bible school, because every elder, and Brother Branham at the end time, even made the deacons apt to teach.

So, therefore, the elders and the deacons and the pastor are teachers, and the parents at home teach the kids, so the kids are brought up in the truth. And this is a marvelous thing in this generation; we have little children coming up in the truth for the first time in almost two thousand years.

It’s really remarkable what you parents have at your command tonight, knowing that God is in His Word and His Word is in you. My, that it makes it exactly right.

[59]  …“Preach the Word.” That’s exactly right. Our educational system takes us farther away from God than anything I know of [and that’s right!] just farther away from God. Not build schools, hospitals, and so forth, that was for the world and for that group. I [haven’t] anything against them; they play their parts, but that’s still not there. [In other words, that’s no the ultimate.] We build a hospital ever so good, and practice with the rest of the medicine we got, and thousands die daily.

And, as I said, “They won’t even let you get the right medicine anymore.” Now, you know why they don’t want chaparral and ginkgo and all these things? Because you can’t patent it! No, they have what they call… what is it? The grandfather clause? Where it already was. There’s no money.

Now, [George] Sperti, I don’t know if you know about Sperti or not, his name’s Italian, but he’s a tremendous, marvelous scientist and he discovered how to cure burns and, in fact, there are better ointments now, and I think Sperti also invented the lamp. Didn’t he? Do you remember… anybody here? the Sperti lamp… it was invented by him.

He was down here at the University of Cincinnati, and I’m sure it was under him that they began studying all about hydrogen peroxide. And they said, “My heavens! This is a miracle medicine!” Everybody was enthralled. Suddenly Sperti said, “Over!”

“Well,” they said, “just a minute. You’ve opened the door to a marvelous vista, this is wonderful… it’s like a miracle what we can do with it.”

“Well,” he said, “I’m sorry. The classes are over because you see, you can’t patent this. There’s no money to be made. Forget it.”

Now, with stuff like that going on around the world, they stifle and destroy even honest people. Merkel can’t get off the ground for those buzzards. He had it all made up in Hawaii. Fifty million dollars, they were going to give him… the governor, senators there.

The FDA walks in and says, “No dice.” What right does the FDA have to stop you and me having health? Because if we have health through preventive medicine, well, the simple ways that God intended, there’s no money!

You say, “Well, Brother Vayle, what about their kids? What about their own parents, their grandparents, their grandchildren and so on?”

“The love of money is the root of all evil,” son. You haven’t been listening, daughter. You’re still spiritually stupid and negative. You don’t believe the Word of God. You just barely believe the Word of God.

It rolls off you like water off a duck’s back. The truth is this: “The love of money is the root of all evil” in this hour! “Go to it, rich man. Weep and howl. Your miseries have come upon you.” You’ve even held back the wages of the workers who work the mines and the metals and the things out there that God made and you take as though they were your own.

You say, “Brother Vayle, you’re a rabble rouser.”

Like fun! I’m a preacher that knows what he’s talking about, and I’m not eighty years of age for nothing.

You’re looking at the Scripture fulfilled tonight, brother/sister, whether you know it or not, and the Bible says in this end-time the Ju-u-udge is at the door.

The same One knocking in Revelation 3 where the “rich, increased in goods and don’t need a thing.” And when you don’t need a thing, you don’t need God!

You say, “Well, God is in my pocket.”

Is that a fact? Is that a fact? All right.

…We build hospitals [and so on,] they died thousands daily. But, oh my, in the kingdom of God there is no death; there is no sorrow! Amen! There’s no need of these things of the world! But we’ve passed from this thing into the realities of God. Where we struggle so hard to find through science, and more scientific we get, the more death we bring on ourselves.

Yeah. Antibiotics, they don’t only come to the place where they produce greater germs by mutation, but the thing is, now they destroy your immune system and turn loose all this junk that’s killing us.

That’s why yeast infection, that the Bible said is going to be here in the last day, and we shouldn’t have it, though I’ve got it myself, and I wouldn’t be surprised eighty percent of you got it here tonight… right in your bloodstream. We shouldn’t even have it. We’re just… something wrong with us. It’s a plague at the end time.

Dr. Merkel says that chondriana can kill cancer way faster and better than it even kills yeast problems In other words, more people shortly die of yeast problems than they will die of cancer.

You get to the place where it takes your complete blood stream over, you’ll go crazy. Maybe commit suicide, God knows what. You got a beautiful future here. Wake up and smell the coffee. Don’t put your hope in science and the world today. It’s finished. They’re going to get you. They’ve already got us.

The dollar bill: don’t even worry about the hundred bill, just worry about the dollar bill. Because the hundred dollar bill… a hundred dollars is as good as a hundred dollar bill. I don’t care how you cut it. One-hundred dollar bills will buy same as one hundred-dollar bill; and one hundred-dollar bill will likely buy no more than a hundred one-dollar bills. Well, it’s not supposed to.

Yeah. It’s a dollar… it’s a dollar kingdom. The dollar sign is what they got. That’s why they don’t want chelation. Everybody will tell you chelation will kill you and that’s a lie. Chelation won’t kill you. Chelation will save you. I just talked to Billy Paul yesterday… it’s a good thing he phoned me… he can’t have bypass… he’s got a bad prognosis.

I said, “Son, get a hold of a doctor with chelation.” I gave him Dr. McDaniel’s name. So, I told him, I said, “Listen, I’m going to tell you: that guy is good. He’s done 10,000 chelations,” I said, “furthermore, we sent Anna Osborne down there. She had a kidney stone. For a few bucks he gave her an intravenous about four hours then the kidney stone dissolved.”

Oh, he got very happy. So should you when I tell you these things. I’m not a doctor, I’m not a scientist, but I can read. And I can see evidence. I can see results, and I can tell you this: though Brother Branham said, “Doctors are of God,” true, the profession is, but it doesn’t mean the individuals are very much into the kingdom. And yet, at one time, they were great men.

They bring more death… the antibiotics, the vaccinations, all of those things bring death. When my sister was vaccinated, until that time she was a healthy, happy, little girl.

From that time on, she was literally almost skin and bones, the poor girl. She’s eighty-three years old this fall, same as I’m going to turn eighty years old, but she’s had a battle all of her life, because of the impurities they injected into her system.

[59]  …We’re fighting a losing battle there, [that’s the hospitals and all this stuff that this great civilization brought on in the name of the Lord, yeah,] so turn loose of it, and by faith, believe Jesus Christ, the Son of God, tonight and accept Him. He is the one.

[60]  What’s science preparing you for? More death. That’s right. Sputniks, everything going up, and all these things that scatter death and everything across the earth. Don’t look to that; turn your head higher than that, toward heaven. Look towards… Jesus who sits on the right hand of God tonight, ever living to make intercessions on our confession of what we believe His Word to be, which is the truth. 

Now, this may sort of puzzle you. How you say, “Well, Brother Branham said that Jesus took the book out of the hand of Him on the throne, then climbed on the Father’s throne, having ripped off the seals and given it back, and the Father came down?”

In other words, Revelation 5:1 is Revelation 10:1. Well, that’s exactly true, but Brother Branham also explained, he said, “It isn’t as though God has a right hand like a man. It signifies the authority, and He does live to make intercession. He is the mediator… He will never change.”

What He did it can’t change until the last one is brought in and child-trained and the whole Bride is completely glorified, either through resurrection or the change that’s to come upon us.

So, therefore, he says,

[60]  [He] is ever living to make intercession [based] on our confession of what we believe His Word to be, [which,] of course, [we know It] is the truth.”

So, what are we looking at? We’re looking at the fact that Brother Branham said, “Whatever you confess with your mouth,” and that being the true Word of God: giving back to God what He gave us [he said,] He will make your body obey your confession.” And so, therefore, as we believe, as we talk to Him, He makes intercession based on our confession.

In other words, you can’t say to Him, as I’ve said hundreds, literally dozens of times: and you’ve written your school paper and you wrote that Cincinnati was the capitol of Ohio. Don’t say, “O God, please make Cincinnati the capitol of Ohio.”

It won’t work, because Columbus is. Neither can you say, “O God, work outside of Your Word.” You can’t do it. It’s never twisting God’s arm; it’s prayer is getting us in the position where God twists our arm where we see the benefit of complete surrender.

Oh my! I wish we were there tonight. Well, we are, in the truth of the coming day. How many minutes? How many? Okay, we’ll finish this paragraph.

[61]  Now, we find this life holds all kinds of evil; so therefore, the life that is to come won’t have it.

Now, see, he’s talking about that if there is a life, what kind of a life is it going to be? Surely not a repeat, you know, transmigration of souls and reincarnation and all that kind of tripe, especially reincarnation. Oh my, that’s the big thing today.

You know, I have no interest in being reincarnated. In fact, if reincarnation were my lot, whoever I talk to when I pass this life, I’ll say, “Stop it right there, bud. I’ve had it! I’m not interested!”

He said, “Then you believe in just one shot?”

“I believe in one shot… that’s all I want.”

Now, he says here:

[61]  …We find this life holds all kinds of evil; so therefore, the life that is to come won’t have it.

[62]  This one has lust, and sickness, and death because what is it? It’s not the house that He’s gone to prepare.

Now, remember, at all times that Brother Branham, in preaching, is laying this out like the Bible. Now, the Bible is based upon vindication. So when Brother Branham tells us, not just the fact that he read the Bible is based upon vindication, but he’s telling you this right here, “The life that is to come won’t have these evils and things that we have now,” and he says, “so, therefore, the life that is to come won’t have it.”

So, why is this so that it must be? Well, he gets his basis over here in 1 Corinthians 15, which we all know is a Resurrection chapter. And it says in verse 20.

So, in the resurrection of Jesus, we see the first of many, many, many, many, many, many… we see the first of every single one foreknown, elected and predestinated to take on this image, to go down with a body, subject to sickness and death.

Now, let’s get this flat: if Jesus Christ’s body was subject to death and did die, then it was subject to sicknesses. I don’t know any time He was sick, but who says He wasn’t. Don’t ask me. I can’t add to the Word of God; I can’t take from It.

I only know when the Scripture said that He bore our sicknesses and our diseases upon Calvary. That’s a literal translation of Isaiah 53, and our aches and our pains are right there, too. And Brother Branham put it all as a part of the atonement, which it is.

Now remember, atonement for soul and atonement for body can be the same atonement, but let’s understand this one thing: if I’ve got a gear in my car that runs the air conditioner as well as the wheels, the air conditioner is not a part of the wheels if that gear is running. They’re two different things.

And so you can have a lot of things that God hands out for your body that comes by that atonement, but it’s different from the very fact of the soul. And the soul is like the wheels, you don’t need the air conditioner but if you’re going to travel, you got to have wheels. And remember, He gives the Blood atonement for the soul.

“The soul that sinned dies.” He gave His Soul an offering; He gave His Blood. Now, these other things are given. As the Scripture distinctly says and I’ll prove it: “If God spared not His Own Son but freely delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not also with Him freely give us all things?” So, therefore, we’re seeing the picture. Okay.

Now, let’s watch this as we go to verse 49.

Now, Paul is basing this treatise upon vindication. So we go to 2 Corinthians and we wind up with the 12th chapter and we read at verse 1, beginning:

Now, there could be two places: third heaven paradises, like Brother Branham said: “Paradise, heaven.” See? Brother Branham’s words are perfect with the Word. We often wonder… say, “Well… I, why paradise that’s got to be Millennium… that’s got to Eden.” It doesn’t have to be at all. The prophet is right.

How could William Branham be off the Word and be vindicated? I’d like to know. How could God answer back? You know, you’d impugn the integrity of God until God is the devil! How can you trust Him for anything?

You’d want to get away from Him so fast you couldn’t get far enough in that big a hurry. This makes you want to come close, close, close. “Safe in the Arms of Jesus, safe on His gentle Breast.” Makes you love Him, because you know He’s true. See?

2 Corinthians 12:5-9

Now, let’s keep reading.

Now watch:

Now, listen:

He said, “I’m vindicated.” The man was vindicated, but people don’t even have a clue to vindication. Put it in a test tube; bring it down to two and two make four.

They don’t have a clue! Though God is the God of mathematics, He is not, Himself, mathematics. He’s omniscient and, therefore, He brings forth mathematics. Two and two make four; four and four make eight.

Now, let’s got to Romans 15:15-19 and prove again Paul always talks about his vindication. All right. 15:15-19.

See? That’s why I preach vindication day and night. That’s why people hate my guts. But I did get a letter the other day from England. You know this fellow named Sewel over there… did you meet him? Sewel at Geoff’s ?

Well, he wrote me a nice letter, he said, “Brother Vayle,” he said, “after hearing your messages,” he said he’d become a very temperate, sweet person. Ha! ha! for these guys to think I inflame people to being raunchy, ugly and mean. So, if I have to go all the way to England… we’ll just go to England.

It’s not in my message, it’s in God’s Message. He’s caught the understanding. Listen: William Branham had nothing to do with the Word of God than nothing! Paul the apostle, nothing! You and I, nothing! Everything is of God and we can be the receptacles and if, perchance, we’re that, that’s sufficient. It’s more than sufficient, because the Bible says, “All things are ours.”

Now:

[61]  …This life has to come. [It’s got to come, it’s vindicated.] This one has lust, this life, sickness, death, [this government, this era, this cosmos,] because what is it? It’s not the house that He’s gone to prepare. [Now, what is this house?] It’s a pesthouse. How many know what a pesthouse is? [Well, you know, a pesthouse is a place of isolation for virulent, contagious diseases. Tuberculosis, even measles and things like that, but that’s not as bad as tuberculosis.] Sure. Well, that’s what you’re living in. A pesthouse is where they put all the diseased people. [See? You get all the diseases and all the sins.]

…Well, that’s just what sin did to us, put us in an earthly pesthouse. Where they wouldn’t let anyone else come in the pesthouse, [that’s if you’re there with these bugs,] because there’s all kinds of germs flying around in there; and the people will take these germs and be sick themselves. And sin brought us into the devil’s pesthouse.

See? Now, for a multitude, there’s a second pesthouse that you don’t get out of. That’s at the White Throne and the Lake of Fire where, thank God, all disease and everything connected with sin, which is death, separation from God, gets completely annihilated.

Paragraph 62:

[62]  Oh, but the other one is called my Father’s House, [not my pesthouse now, but my Father’s house; not my corpse.]

You know, this is the Father’s house on the grounds of the fact that we’re born again, full of the Holy Ghost and the whole church is the Body of Christ, but this here is not the ultimate. This is the preparation; this is the coming together for the real Father’s house. Now, the real Father’s house, of course, is not the Body of Jesus Christ, the Bride. He’s talking about that place over there. Now:

[62]  “…Take you out of this pesthouse and deliver you unto my Father’s House.” Amen! There you are! Take me out of this old, earthly pesthouse. [In other words, terrible pain and sickness soon to be gone.] He’s gone to prepare a place, a perfect place, where no sin exists, no sickness exists, no old age exists, no death exists. [It’s perfect.] It’s a perfect place calling you to that perfection…

Now, only if the Deep is calling to the deep. Now, if you don’t believe God, there’s no call… couldn’t be. And even if you believe This, doesn’t mean you’re going to get it. Brother Branham was talking through a vindicated Message to a Bride that hears the message of the last hour. Eh? A Deep calling to deep…

[62]  …calling you to perfection, [and notice,] and you have to be perfect to get there. [We’re perfect to get there. When we get there, it’s perfection.] The Bible said so. Jesus said, “Be ye therefore perfect even as your Father in heaven is perfect.”

But you know something? Brother Branham said… that’s Matthew 5:48, right? And he said, “Now, if God made a commandment, God has got to make a way for it.” And that’s exactly true! That’s exactly true. And he said, “The Blood of Jesus Christ scatters sin.”

And also said, “The Bride is perfected by the Blood. It scatters sin until there be no evidence.” Then how can you call a man a sinner if there’s no evidence of sin?

Now:

[62]  …it’s a perfect kingdom, and it must be a perfect people come; because you have to stand to be married to a perfect Son of God; and you must be a perfect Bride. So how can you do it through anything else but the perfect Word of God, which is the waters of separation that washes us from our sins.

Okay. The perfect place God has made for us. Right. Now then He hasn’t left us to chance to be perfect to get there. No way, shape and form. Now, how is it going to be done?

Well, it’s simple… it’s going to be done through the Resurrection! Yeah, and the burning, dissolving and remolding. As Brother Branham even said concerning us, “God will create again, not through sex, but by the divine act of creation, bringing together the calcium, the potash, and all the minerals and all the other elements that are required for the human body. And God is going to do it.” And he said:

[62]  …how can he do it through anything but the perfect Word of God, which is the waters of separation that washes us from our sins.

Now, when he talks about the waters of separation, you’re talking about waters like the waters of Marah, bitterness, trials and things that you go through in life, but more pertinent, because this is the New Testament, I would immediately have to go to Ephesians, the 5th chapter, and in there:

Now, the fact of the matter is that this has gone through seven ages. Now, what about the time of the seventh age when they’re wretched, miserable, blind, naked and he’s outside of the church, and they don’t even know it?

In other words, they are complete, defiled bums, acting like billionaires, and they are crouching there, object of charity, if you can just give them a dime. “Brother, can you spare a dime?”

How do you say, “If you don’t have what you think you got, you don’t even have Me.” Now, what started it? Leaving the Word! And what did Paul say is going to bring these people in? The same Word that he preached in this hour at the coming of the Judge. That’s 2 Thessalonians, chapter 1.

So, what you’re looking at here is, “That He might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the Word.” Now, Brother Branham categorically said the truth. He said, “Sanctification is a separation.” And he said, “The Word separates; the gifts bring you together.” So what is going to separate the bride from the church? The Word! And what is the Word going to do?

The Word is going to cleanse her. Now, remember, there’s a wedding supper. So, now she’s got to get her garment! Come on! Put it all together. Don’t just sit around tonight and say, “Well, Brother Vayle, I believe this.” Look, I don’t care what you believe. Get to the Word!

Matthew 25:6

There were those not full of the Holy Ghost because there was no Word, nothing in the vessels and the vessels they had were leaking. Wrong Word, wrong age, all leaked out. They’re Pentecostals, they’re chaff. The Life has gone on.

Now, when they are out there meeting the Bridegroom, what happens? They’re called in to the Wedding Room. Now, at that particular time, when the invitation has gone out, there are people coming in.

And there’s a man sitting in the congregation, like right here tonight, Brother Branham said, “The man didn’t have a garment on.” What was that man? He was in Brother Branham’s meeting, sitting there, without believing the Word!

Put it together. Otherwise, we’re like the stupid birds. They were given an instruction by, I think it was supposed to be by the Lord or the Spirit or something, and so they said, “Well, now what you do now, you take some mud and you put it here.”

So one bird said, “I got it! I got it!” He flew off and he built a mud nest. That wasn’t what he wanted.

Then he said, “Why don’t you get some twigs?”

And he said, “Oh, I got it! I got… ” He got some mud and some twigs. But the nest was only finished with the mud and the twigs and the grass, the leaves, the down and all the nice little feathers inside and all. That’s what they’re supposed to have.

We’ve had seven church ages. People are out, “Why believe this? Why believe that?” Well, it doesn’t matter what they believe; it’s what God has said.

Well, I am going to have to start this tomorrow morning right here. I’m going to start this right here. We’ll sort of review this because we’ll go quickly. Man! We sure went tonight, didn’t we? One whole page. Well, that’s not bad.

See, you got to see all these things that Brother Branham teaches. I know that people don’t like me for my preaching. “Well, Brother Vayle, he’s old. He should retire now because he can’t keep his thoughts in mind.”

I’m taking everything that Brother Branham said back and forth to the Word and everything he said so you won’t get out of here saying, “Well, I’m one of those birds that just thought he knew the answer.”

“Water separates, that’s enough for me.” God doesn’t say that. You got to have a garment on so don’t throw that in the garbage.

Everything is in this Word here, brother/sister, and I thank God tonight for what God is doing, not even what I am believing, or anything I can do, but I’m thankful for what God is doing and He is following out His Own Word in Ephesians 1: the Spirit amongst us, revealing Himself to us that we may know what is the Message of this hour, that we might go into the Wedding Supper.

So let’s pray.

Heavenly Father, we thank You again for the time of fellowship we have around Your Word. We rejoice Lord, in the truth. It’s all we can rejoice in Lord, and It’s all we need to rejoice in, because Your Word is a living Word which is going to take us from here into the realm that is beyond and, thank God, it meets full qualifications.

There won’t be anybody turned back at the gate… no. They are invited to the Wedding Supper, fully clothed, and that great Wedding Supper, then to come back with Him upon that White Horse, the great power, God in His great power, coming to the earth with the Bride, taking over fully.

Lord, the big thing what we see tonight and we enjoy is the fact that we do hear Your Word and believe what the prophet said, and as time goes on, we’ll believe It more and more until It just is a part of us and we are a part of It until the day Lord, you change our bodies so that there is a full compatibility.

That’s what we’re yearning for, we’re looking for. In the meantime we’re grateful You brought us thus far, knowing You, Who brought us this far, will take us all the way for the journey is soon coming to an end.

We appreciate that so much and thank You for all the help You give us. And unto Thee we ascribe the glory. In Jesus’ name.

Amen.
