Good Friday Message

‘Burying the Evidence’

Beaumont, Texas                                                         
                                                                        
    Bro. Lee Vayle   -   April 1, 1994

	I just want to greet you on my own behalf of myself and my wife,
we’re very happy to be here. We don’t get to go to too many
places…but you know, the travelling days get over, and if you over
stretch your travelling days, it’s nothing but problems to travel. So,
we don’t get very many places. But it’s always good to be with Bro.
Jack and the people here. In fact I almost got a divine revelation when
I saw the building that I should come down here, and Jack should go to
our place. I told him tonight that he was going to have different
preachers with that sudden revelation. But I also told him that…and
it’s the truth I believe it, Bro. Branham were here he’d be so
tremendously pleased to see the people in the church here, that you have
not been fearful to put your money in a church, rather than eave it to
the old antichrist system, and you’re here as a faithful group of
people that adhere to the Word of the Lord as the prophet gave It.

	Many times I think when I’m back home preaching and “I get my
little inspiration,” Bro. Branham called it, from his sermons, and I
feel that my little four cylinder old model T Ford is just about going
out on four and a half cylinders. I get very happy thinking that Bro.
Branham told us that, “When you talk about someone with great love,
and how you really love that person, that person having gone on, you
feel a sweet spirit come into the room.” He said, “That’s the
spirit of that person.” 

	Now, of course I’m not prone to say anymore than what he said. I
don’t believe in spiritual communion of saints anymore than I believe
in the spirits communing with snakes. You don’t have that; you get
into spiritism, if you do that. But Bro. Branham did say some peculiar
strange things that I believe with all my heart. And you believe them,
there will come a day perhaps not on this side of the Curtain of Time,
but on the other, when the very things that he said that seem so obtuse,
so off target are a hundred percent right. Most things which he has
told, he’s told us many times were difficult to understand, I found
that just by waiting you’d be surprised how the answers come. And
that’s the good evidence to me of the Word of the Lord restored as it
was in the days of Paul.

	So, we appreciate being here with you, and get a little time, perhaps I
can see some of the folk I’d like to see. Had a bad day today, I’m
feeling a lot better now, I think I must have got a little bit of  flu
bug, and when you do you can sometimes get over them in about four and a
half hours or so. So I was pretty raunchy this afternoon; I guess might
still be.

	But anyway, we want to look at the Word tonight and not take too much
time on Sunday, then we want to dedicate the church and have a
Resurrection Message.

	Let’s bow our heads at this time shall we: Heavenly Father, we thank
You for the privilege we have of gathering together with Your people, we
believe they are Your people. And we believe Lord, as they are literally
are bone of Your bone, flesh of Your flesh, we together are part of that
wonderful body of the Lord Jesus Christ, we ought to have tremendous
fellowship tonight. And as the prophet said, “How we ought to love
each other, you who believe this   Message.” There’s many things
he’s told us that we don’t want to go awry on, we don’t want to
miss Lord, or we don’t want to carry it to some extreme, we want to
stay right where the prophet put it in. As we see that tonight that we
are a part, we are grateful and look at the promises where we have a
oneness with You, and with each other, which we certainly do love and
would glorify Your Name therein. Help us in our studies we give You
glory in Jesus’ Name. Amen.

1.	I got an echo here and I don’t know what’s doing it, whether
we’ve got a little bit too much application or something, but as long
as you can hear that’s the main thing. But remember there are times
when I feel a lot better that I may suddenly feel better, I start to
raise my voice because I get excited too. And I don’t mind if you
swing on the chandeliers at the right time. That’s all right. There
are wrong times when you do that, but I can never understand at home
sometimes why the people just don’t run around tear around the church
screaming. I don’t. I don’t understand it, of course that’s a
little bit of Pentecostal, what do you call it, stimulation,
“steamalation” in there I don’t know.

2.	All right, we’re going to read a little bit here or a ‘Good
Friday Message’, The Day That Christ Was Crucified. We’re going to
go to Jn 19:31-34.

		(31)	The Jews therefore, because it was the preparation, that the
bodies 						should not remain upon the cross on the sabbath… (for
that sabbath 					day was an high day,) besought Pilate that their legs
might be broken, 					and that they might be taken away.

		(32)	 Then came the soldiers, and (they broke) the legs of the first,
and of					 the other which was crucified with him.

		(33)	But when they came to Jesus, and saw that he was dead already,
(and) 					brake not his legs:

		(34) 	But one of the soldiers with a spear pierced his side, and
forthwith came 					there out blood and water.

		(35) 	And he that saw it bare record, and his record is true: and he
knoweth that 					he saith true, that ye might believe.                 
                                                             

		(36) 	For these things were done, that the scripture should be
fulfilled, A bone 					of him shall not be broken.

		(37) 	And again another scripture saith, They shall look on him whom
they 					pierced.

	And then, 41-42.

		(41) 	Now in the place where he was crucified there was a garden; and
in the 					garden a new sepulchre, wherein was never man… laid.

		(42) 	There laid they Jesus therefore because of the Jews' preparation
day; 					for the sepulchre was nigh at hand.

	Now, this is a very clear portion of Scripture that gives you to
understand that Jesus was actually crucified on Friday, and He was three
days and three nights within that particular period in the heart of the
earth, even as He Himself would be looking at the prophet Jonas who was
three days and three nights in the belly of the whale.

	Now, if we read along in Lk 23:44, we would find shere It says in
conjunction It says, “It became dark from the sixth hour to the
ninth.”

3.	Now, if you read in the Book of Acts which you have many times, they
criticized those speaking in tongues and said they’re drunk. And Peter
said, “No, but this is but the third hour of the day,” which is nine
o’clock our time. [Acts 2:15] So therefore, from the sixth hour to the
ninth hour, would be from twelve o’clock noon till three o’clock in
the afternoon; is the events that transpiring here, and which would lead
up to the literal death upon Calvary’s cross, and His internment
within the grave.

	Now, as we saw here, and this is just a preamble, because I’m not
going to actually deal with this particular part here; just wanting to
bring it out that the day of the crucifixion according to this was on a
Friday, which was a day of preparation before the Saturday, which would
be the Sabbath. Now, they wanted Him interred of course, because they
were not to have the bodies left upon the tree of crucifixion, those
bodies were to be buried. We will see that later on as we go to the Book
of Deuteronomy in another portion of this message.

	But, what we want to see here first of all is, that Jesus came forth on
that Sunday morning, which is the first day of the week. And as Bro.
Branham said, “It is within.” And I find it with so many people even
though I taught this previously, they don’t seem to have the ability,
or they do not bring themselves into focus to understand the truth of
Scripture, from the viewpoint of history.

4.	Now, I realize that many people would say, “Well you cannot
understand Scripture by history.” Now that’s true, but it’s not
true, because most people don’t understand with the Hebrews, the Old
Testament, that a part of anything being it a day, an hour, a minute, a
week, a month, a year or a period; if you had one part of that, that
would constitute as though it were the whole. So, if He was buried on
Friday you see therefore then you have a part of the day there, that’s
constitutes the whole.

	Now, I know they’re looking at is the Son of Man was three days and
three nights in the heart of… as Jonas was. They don’t understand
that that expression could not take away from the actual understanding
of that day. Christ could not come and institute something of Himself,
it was not in that particular hour, leading the people into
misinformation. They understood completely at that time, a part of the
day was a whole day. A part of an hour was a whole hour. So, when you
look at this and understand He was actually as Bro. Branham said so
perfectly, and he didn’t know anything about archeology. He never
studied the way I have studied. I was fortunate to find the kind of
studies I wanted. He said, “Within,” and that is the exact truth.
And this is where they misunderstand Daniel’s Seventieth Week.

5.	Now, every time you pick up an article in any magazine that has to do
with the Scripture, or you see, perhaps some films which are very good
films made by Christian institutes, you always find that not one of them
recognized that that seventieth week of Daniel was sixty nine, then
immediately the seventieth, and in the seventieth He was cut off. But
they always look at the thought, and say, “Well a week is a week.” 
Now, just a minute it isn’t. See? That’s the great fooler right
there, that people already are in a position where they simply don’t
understand Scripture. Bro. Branham not  knowing what we know by study,
pin-pointed perfectly  within that particular time. That’s why he
said, that, “There’s three and a half years left, because in the
midst of that week seventy He was cut off.” But any portion thereto is
considered a week. You say, “Well now,  I don’t think God should do
that.” Why don’t you just shut up and mind your own business. If
you’re so good at doing things, I’d like you doing something for me.
I need help. Why don’t you do something for me? See? That’s what’s
wrong. People dare to come against the Most High God.

 	 Look, that you and I sin, that’s not half bad. Doing murder like
David, that’s not half bad. But you come against the Word, watch what
happens to you. Going to tell God what to do, and how to do it? Going to
tell God He doesn’t know what He’s saying when He said It? Something
wrong with people. And Bro. Branham said, “There’s three and a half
years left.” And at three and a half,  there’s one and three
quarters years goes by, then the revelation, and you got all that
problem coming.

7.	Well, I just wanted to bring all that out …?... that’s not the
thought of the message tonight. The thought of the message is actually
this: The point I have in mind is I am looking at Israel that murdered
Messiah and then attempted to bury the evidence, (where their evidence
and their murder) and everything and everybody connected with the
Messiah doctrine, or the Messianic doctrine of that hour, and then they
went out full tilt, full of their murder and blasphemy to worship and to
 force others to worship God according to a mixture of vindicated Word.
Now watch carefully what I’m saying, they never believed the Word was
vindicated by Jesus at that time. That’s why they kept going back to
Moses, “We believe Moses, we believe Moses, we believe Moses.” He
said, “If you’d of believed Moses you’d of believed Me, because
I’m that prophet and I’ve come with that vindication.” Deuteronomy
18.

	So, they went out knowing that Moses was vindicated. So they took the
vindicated Word that Moses brought them, and then they mixed it with
their own human reasoning’s, and took that as the vindicated Word. So
they could say, “Listen, we are worshipping and serving God according
to truth.” 

8.Now, I want to submit to you tonight, that Christendom, Christian
religion especially as we know it has joined hands with the entire world
to bury the evidence of their ghastly murder of the Son of God to
themselves, even as did Israel enter into a contract with Rome and
killed and buried Christ. And rid the world of vindicated truth,
fulfilling the Scripture to perfection, that’s in the Book of Romans,
that tells us there that, “They held back the truth in
unrighteousness,” [Rom 1:18] bringing upon the world the complete
destruction of which there is a series of destructions, one of which is
AIDS.

	So, what they did back there in collusion with Rome which was the
Alpha, you must now come to the Omega, which is this hour where they
crucified themselves the Son of God afresh, and the attempt to bury the
evidence and bring to naught what was accomplished in this hour. Israel
still think that they did a good job of burying their evidence. But
remember, when Jesus used those words when he said, “For My Name in
all the world you’d be suffering persecution, men will hate you.”
That is a double barrel shot-gun. And you look around today, the Jews
are still hated and will eventually be destroyed, more, and more, and
more by people who claim to love and honor Jesus. And because the Jews
have not accepted Him, they’re hated. It was a double barrel shot-gun
blast that Jesus used at that particular time.

9.	Now, this ghastly murder is actually found in the Book of Heb 6:1-6,
which is prefaced by the 5th chapter of Hebrews which we want to look at
as we go along with the part of 6: And in Heb 5:1-9 It says,

		(1)	For every high priest taken from among men is ordained for men in 
				things pertaining to God, that he may offer both gifts and
sacrifices 					for sins: 

	Right there you see where Bro. Branham said, “You cannot worship and
serve God apart from a prophet.” Now, I know that the church does not
believe that, but listen, this is something that you and I build on.
This is our substantial ark. This is where we’re going to miss
everything that devolves upon the world for the crucifixion of the Son
of God unto themselves and we escape. See? So, keep it in mind. So it
tells you, there is no such thing as having a high priest, and remember,
the high priest in nonfunctional without a prophet. Tell me what Aaron
could do outside of Moses? Nothing! Impossible! So we have to have the
prophet here.

	Now, he said, “This high priest, though we’re talking about him who
functions on the grounds of the prophet, and put that on to Jesus,
Melchisedec the whole thing, although referring now to the Aaronic.

		(2)	 Who can have compassion on the ignorant, and on them that are 			
		out of the way; for that he himself also is compassed with infirmity.

		(3)	And by reason hereof he ought, as for the people, so also for
himself, 					to offer for sins.

		(4)	And no man taketh this honour unto himself, but he that is called
of 					God, as was Aaron. 

	Now that’s your original, (see) instituting a true religious worship
of people. The church in the wilderness and now we’re fulfilling that.

		(5)	So also Christ glorified not himself to be made an high priest;
but 						he that said unto him, Thou art my Son, today have I begotten
thee.

		(6)	As he (saith also) in another place, Thou art a priest for ever
after the 					order of Melchisedec.

		(7)	Who in the days of this flesh, when he had offered up prayers and 
					supplications with strong crying and tears unto him that was able
to 					save him from death, and was heard in that he feared;

		(8)	Though he were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which
					he suffered.

		(9)	And being made perfect, he became the author of eternal salvation 
					unto all them that obey him,

		(10)	Called of God an high priest after the order of Melchisedec.

10.	Now, with that we go right to the 6th chapter of Hebrews.

		(1)	Therefore leaving the principles of the doctrine of Christ…

	Now, therefore leaving the principles of the Logos of Christ, we’re
looking at the time now they’re going to leave this thing here where
you fully understand that this One that was the Only Begotten Son of
God, and He came down here and took upon Himself a human body. Bro.
Branham categorically called that “The Logos,” in different places,
other places he doesn’t. Calling that the Logos, which was seen here
then is this perfect manifestation of what God had in 

mind, and there it is right there. [Pointing to the picture of the
Pillar of Fire] 

	Now, you’re looking at the fact then of the days of His flesh. Now it
says, “That’s going to cease, that’s all over.” Now, you say,
“I don’t believe we can deny that.” Just a minute now, you’re
looking at foundation. When you want to see the top of this building, I
challenge anyone here to stand back on the road, and so focus your eyes;
I’ll give you one hundred bucks apiece if you can do it. You can’t
do it. There’s no way, unless you have a little gadget made. You
cannot focus one eye on the foundation and one eye on the pinnacle at
the same time, unless you’re cock-eyed. I’ll give you a hundred
bucks just the same, because you’re cock-eyed. You can’t do it. 

11.	So, It says, “Leaving the days of the flesh,” leaving those
things that came from that. Now then if you leave those things that came
from that in that particular area, those fundamental truths,
manifestation, the Word of God fulfilled, where are you going to go to?
You’re going to go to  what the ultimate purpose of all that was. Now,
you can’t go beyond as human beings, other side to the Millennium,
it’s got to be on this side of the Millennium. Right?

	So now, you’re looking at a prophecy here, and the prophecy is a
warning and It says,

		(1)	Therefore leaving the principles…the doctrine(s) of (the Logos) 
					of Christ…

	Now, he’s talking about this One in Hebrews 1: that He became flesh.
He’s talking about that One that went pass the Aaronic ministry and
went right was the prophet, went right into death, rose to be
Melchisedec. Now, He said, “You’re going to leave that.”

	Now watch, leaving that to go to perfection. Now perfection means
‘conclusion’ where you cannot add to it, you cannot take from it, it
is a hundred percent perfect. I like it unto a perfect bowling ball,
that has been perfectly sealed, you know with some type of clear varnish
you know, urethane, whatever you’re going to use. And if you scratch
that ball you’ve taken something from it. If you take and pound a nail
in it, you’ve put something to it. Now, the point is, could anybody
ever put anything to what God did through Christ? And the answer is no!
And the prophet said, “That’s what’s wrong with people all the
time, they always want to put something to it.”

12.	Now, this is the time that you’re going to find you can’t put
anything to it. And you can’t take anything from it. Now, you could do
it back there, you understand what I’m saying? You could do it back
there. You can’t do it now.

	There’s coming a time when it’s impossible. So you leave what?

		(1)	…not laying again the foundation of repentance from dead
works…

	Do you realize there’s going to come a time when people can’t
repent? Now, you could do it all through the ages. There’s going to
come a time when you run into a... some type of a brick wall, and a
faith toward God. Now that’s a specific type of faith toward God. 

		(2)	Of doctrines of baptisms, and laying on of hands, a resurrection
of 						the dead, and eternal judgment.

	Now watch. He said, All of this goes by the board that came from there,
not as though you put aside and say, hey, it never worked, this, that.
You understand what I’m saying? There’s got to come a time when
everything that was here for that particular purpose is now in full
view, and you walk into it. Why? Because this was in full view and they
walked into it. So now is God going to become suddenly mysterious? No!
You’re coming to perfection. What did Bro. Branham call perfection? He
said, “Who is perfect but God, and what is God but the Word, and by
His Grace we have the perfect revelation of the Word for this hour.” 

13.	So all right, you’re looking at a finished complete Word
fulfillment of Almighty God. Now he said, [Hebrews 6:]

		(3)	…this will we do if God permit.

	But, God didn’t permit. God did not permit. Hey, right in the
Corinthian Church in the 11th chapter, the Church had lost its
virginity, thoroughly impregnated with false doctrine, another Jesus,
another gospel, another spirit. How bad can you get? Worse than that,
you know why? Of course we’re going to see the harvest of it. 

	Now he said,

		(4)	For it is impossible for those who were once enlightened…  (had)
						tasted of the heavenly gift…were made partakers of the Holy
Ghost.

		(5)	And have tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world 
				to come,

		(6)	…(having fallen) away, (they cannot be) renewed unto repentance;
					seeing they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put
him 					to an open shame.

		(7)	For the earth which drinketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it,
and						 bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed,
receiveth 					blessing from God:

		(8)	But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh
unto 					cursing; whose end is to be burned.

		(9)	But, beloved, we are persuaded better things of you, and things
that 					accompany salvation, though we (speak thus.)

	And he’s telling them right there, Hey, “I’m telling you now, but
you’re missing all this. Don’t even worry about it. This in not for
your day, you can let this go.”

	Now remember when Bro. Branham was going to preach on the
‘Trumpets’? He couldn’t do it. …?...  to the Pillar of Fire
appeared to the Angel of the Lord, I don’t know which it was, because
I can’t remember he even told us. But he said, (he) “was told he
couldn’t preach on it.” Why? Because he said, “That’s under the
Sixth Seal and does not belong to you. That belongs to the Jews, lay
off! Strange people just love to get into stuff that doesn’t belong to
them. That’s what they call ‘thieving’; thieves, petty larceny,
and some not so petty. Right, all right. 

14.	Now, let us not misunderstand these Scriptures. It is true and
irrevocably so, that the religious powers of the world, “Crucified to
themselves the Son of God afresh.” And at this time we note that Bro.
Branham made a comment. And the comment was taken from Rom 1:4, which
gratified me, because I was seeing the same thing, I couldn’t explain
like he did. 

		(4)	And declared to be the Son of God, with power, according to the 		
			spirit of holiness, (that raised him) from the dead.

	And Bro. Branham said, “The term ‘Son of God’ there means it has
to do with the Holy Spirit Himself.” It has to do with God having
turned back from human flesh to the Pillar of Fire, and the Spirit of
God in there, and working as He’s always done, which Bro. Branham did
not at that point particularly clarify, but it is the truth, God must
use His prophets. Because it’s the only way it can be done.

15.	Now, that this term ‘Son of God’ since the Resurrection refers
to the Holy Spirit, “God now working in and through the Holy Spirit
and not in the man Christ Jesus,” is what Bro. Branham said. 

	Now, my own comment on this is: that whether people see this in Rom
1:4, is not consequential to us. We don’t care what they see. We have
a vindicated prophet who settled the argument, and that is settled right
there. So we’re looking at now what Paul says according to the Spirit
of Holiness that raised Jesus Christ from the dead, and remember, the
Spirit of Holiness that raised Him, and only God raises the dead, we are
going to see that same ministry there, and it will be called ‘Son of
God’ on the grounds it is doing exactly what that ministry in human
flesh did, and the hour for which it is called now and whatever lies in
the future. Until that same Spirit, which we know, (and I’m getting
ahead of myself,) appears in Ephesians the 1st chapter, and becomes
incarnate to us, and we crown Him King of kings, and Lord of lords at
the great Wedding Supper. Now, you know this Bible as well as I do and
the Message.

16.	All right. So that is that what Bro. Branham told us what it is and
we have no problem with it. But if people are contentious we could read
again the 6th chapter of Hebrews, which I will not do, and take you back
now to the Book of Ephesians which I kind of feel loathe to do, because
it’s going to mean we’re going to take quite a bit of time with this
Message which I really didn’t want to do. 

	But you notice in here it tells us there, Paul is speaking, [Eph] 4:4,

		(4)	There is one body, and one Spirit, even (there’s)…one hope of 
					your calling. (And then he goes on.)

		(7)	But (by) everyone of us is given grace according to the measure 		
			of the gift of Christ. (And It says,)

		(8)	… He that led captivity captive…gave gifts unto men.

			Now, He that went up, is the same One that came down, and then went 	
			up again and came down as the Holy Ghost, Son of God. [verses 9-10 		
		paraphrased]

		(11)	And he gave some, apostles; and some, prophets; and some, 					
evangelists; and some, pastors and teachers;

	And what now? The full five-fold ministry for the perfecting that means
equipping now, it’s not the same as the word ‘perfect’ over yonder
it’s equipping .

		(12)	…the saints, for the work of the ministry, for the edifying 			
			(build up) the body of Christ: 

		(13)	…we all come in the union of faith and the knowledge of the 			
		Son of God…

17.	Now, what is he talking about? He’s talking about the Holy Ghost
came down. So you equate the two, because God does not change His point
of view, and He doesn’t change horses in midstream, He’s not going
north and suddenly going west. God doesn’t do things like that. People
do, but God doesn’t. When He draws an arrow it’s a straight arrow,
and He’s telling you right here, the Holy Spirit that came down. And
what does He call it now, Son of God. So the Son of God, the Holy
Spirit, God Himself working in the Church through human flesh, is
bringing the people to a perfection. Now, to a perfect man is a mature
man, and the mature man means ‘there is’. A maturity would go to
what? Adoption, which is the major part, goes into the Resurrection.

		(13)	Till we all come in the unity of the faith, and of the knowledge
of 						the Son of God, unto a (mature) man, unto the measure of the
stature 					of the fullness of Christ:

		(14)        That we henceforth be no more children, tossed to and fro,
and 						carried about with every wind of doctrine, by the sleight of
men…                                 			(and so on.)

	Now listen, we go right to the last of the 16th verse.

		(16)	From whom the whole (head) fitly joined together and compacted 		
			by that which every joint supplieth, according to the effectual 					
working in the measure of every part, maketh increase of the body 					
unto the edifying of itself in love.

18.	Now, you can tell right here, this did not happen under Paul,
because in the Corinthian Church, and remember the first Church at
Ephesus lost its first love. They had a problem. And the Corinthian
Church had a wrong spirit, had a wrong word, had a false Christ. Now
that’s a bad situation. So Paul knew that this would come regardless
of the corruption that came within the church. You follow me? This has
to come, there’s no way It can’t come. You see? So therefore there
has to be a second Ephesus as Bro. Branham continually said in the
‘Paradox’, “There’s got to come an Ephesians.” That’s why he
said, “Just think how wonderful, the same Pillar of Fire that brought
the Word to Paul, is here revealing It.” See? 

	It’s got to come, and when It does come, the people reject the Son of
God, the Holy Spirit showing that Jesus rose from the dead, and the same
God that was in Him doing the works, was here right now, doing the same
works in and through William Branham, so he could categorically stand
before the people, and they said, “Bro. Branham, what does it mean,
‘He that has seen me, has seen the Father’.” He said, “You’re
looking at me aren’t you?” Oh, merciful God, Bro. Branham you’ve
blasphemed, oh Bro. Branham, oh Bro. Branham.” [Bro. Vayle sucks in
air] Aw, shut up! I mean it. Go on cut your throat. I know I’m a tough
preacher, I hand tough. William Branham said the truth! “Oh, Bro.
Vayle you’re a Deity.” Hogwash I’m Deity. You know why I get
steamed up? Well, maybe you should forget it. 

19.	But the truth is, when I hear preachers, “Bless God, I’ve got
along pretty good without Bro. Branham, I don’t need him now. Bless
God, Bro. Vayle I want to tell you I had a great ministry myself.”
Well I came near to vomiting today, all I need to do is think of that
and I can bring it all up. And I can understand why God vomits. I
don’t have a bit of trouble. I don’t have a bit of trouble. And yet
within my heart is a bleak sorrow for these people. This has to come.
Two thousand years has gone by and this has to come, and when it does
come they crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh. Which means, the
Omega is where they take the Holy Spirit Himself and deny Him, and
crucify Him by their creeds and dogmas and bury Him in a shroud of
intellectual corrupted theology.

20.	Now notice carefully, there are some references in Hebrews 6: that
point to the end-time. Over here in verses 4-6 and I’ll repeat if
you’ve forgotten what I told you previously is not that I have to tell
you anything. Hey look, nobody has to listen, I’m enjoying myself
preaching, because I just love to talk about these things, either to
myself… Like I told the Church back home, I said, “If nobody listens
to me and I preach to the Church just a chandelier, that’s good, now
my wife your name’s been called ‘Chandelier’. It’s not Alisen,
it’s Chandelier from now on. So she’d…have to sit there. But she
isn’t going to have to sit there.

	All right look, let’s look at these verses here. [Heb 6:] 4-6.

		(4)	For it is impossible for those who were once (for all)
enlightened…

	Now It tells you that the once for all enlightening, which of course is
the once for all faith delivered, if you leave it you’ve got to go
back to it. Where Bro. Branham said, “Where the bullet went off the
track you got to bring it back, or the slight little wind, the minute
that bullet leaves the barrel of the gun a slight wind will jar to where
it could be three feet or more off the target. 

21.	How would you like to be trusting in a Savior that wasn’t a Savior
at all? Everything you believe for, Millennium, the New Jerusalem,
everything you believe just goes away and you go to the Lake of Fire.
You say, “I don’t believe that.” You see, you don’t believe your
Bibles. You don’t believe your Bibles. The old creeds and dogmas are
so thoroughly imbedded right today, that I know very few preachers
anywhere so called in this Message, who can listen to Bro. Branham and
understand his vocabulary rather than attempt to put his vocabulary, and
their understanding of theology into his, and make it theirs. You
can’t do it, you have to listen to Bro. Branham the way he said it and
on the grounds that he said it. Now,

		(4)	…(it’s) impossible for those who were once (for all)
enlightened, (now 					watch) (they) tasted the heavenly gift…were
partakers of the Holy Ghost.

		(5)	…tasted the good word of God…the powers of the world to come.

	Now, if that doesn’t wrap the whole thing up at the end time, God
completely exposes Himself. God completely manifests and literally
overwhelms us with His attention and manifestation. That God literally
excels over Himself. And Bro. Branham called it ‘a wooing of the
Bride’, to get Her eyes open and to begin to see what was there for
Her. See? 

		(6)	If they…(having fallen) away, (that’s the actual Greek) to
renew them 					again (to) repentance; 

	It’s impossible, because if you crucify and kill the very thing that
you say you are standing upon… can give you repentance, how in the
world are they going to repent? If there isn’t any food in the house
except a certain amount of food right here, and you throw that food out,
tell me what you’re going to eat? You can’t, because it’s not
there to eat. And how are you going to repent? How are you going to
change your mind? You can’t do it.

22.	Now notice what It says, 

		(7)	For the earth which dirnketh in the rain that cometh oft upon it,
and 					bringeth forth herbs meet for them by whom it is dressed,
receiveth 					blessing from God:

		(8)	But that which beareth thorns and briers is rejected, and is nigh
unto 					cursing; whose end is to be burned.

	Now, that’s a lot like when the Word of God says, I think in Isaiah.
God said, “What more can I do? Israel was my vine, (He said) I found a
good piece of land, I took out all the rocks, (He said,) I plowed it up,
I fertilized it, I brought in a beautiful vine. I put everything around
it, hedged it in, I made it so I can get good grapes.” And He said,
“I couldn’t do anymore than what I did. And I came back and what did
I get? Sour grapes, (He said,) what will I do? I’ll dig it up and burn
it.” 

	“Now Lord, You wouldn’t do that.” 

	He said, “I just told you I would.” Yeah. I’m not a mean guy; I
really don’t think I am.

23.	I remember, our neighbors one time got a little mean rotten kid that
began sicking the dog on our boy Grey. The dog began biting him. I told
the neighbors, “Cut it out, there’s going to war in this camp.”
They didn’t believe me, I called the cops and I said, “If that dog
mutilates my kid I’ll mutilate theirs.”

	The cops said, “Mr. Vayle…” 

	“I just told you I would, don’t fool with me.” And I’m not a
brawler and a fighter

	Now, who do people think they’re fooling with God? I want to ask the
question, He said He would. Now if we can’t believe Him here, we
can’t believe Him there. If we can’t believe this here, [points to
the picture of the Pillar of Fire] don’t tell me that we can believe
for New Jerusalem. Hogwash! We don’t even have a half a good dream
about it, let alone any reality.

24.	All right, It says here, “They can’t repent.” What about over
here in the Book of Rev 3:14,

		(14)	And unto the (messenger) of the church of the Loadiceans write; 	
				These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the 				
	beginning of the creation of God;

		(15)	I know (your) works… neither (hot) not (cold) I would…wert
cold 						or hot.

		(16)	…because (you’re) lukewarm, neither cold nor hot, I will spue
thee 					out of my mouth. (Now watch,)

		(17)	Because thou sayest, I am rich, and increased with goods, and
have 					need of nothing; and knowest not that thou art wretched, and
miserable, 					and poor, and blind, and naked.

		(18)	I counsel thee to buy of me gold tried in the fire… (and so
on.)

	Now, and he tells them over here,

		(19)	 As many as I love, I rebuke (I) chasten: be zealous therefore,
and 						repent.

	Now, with the people that are so far gone as they are in this last age,
how can they repent? There’s only one way that they can repent and
that is for God to reproduce Himself again in  human flesh and manifest
as He did in the beginning, and He said, 

		(20)	…(I’m standing) at the door (knocking: making the Church to 	
				wake up to His Presence. So there we look at the end-time. How 					
many people are going to repent?)

	Let’s look at [Heb 6:] 6-7. It says here,

		(6)	…crucify…themselves the Son of God afresh…

		(7)	…(And) the earth (that) drinketh in the rain…(and so on.)

	And then you go on down where It says, “They’re made for the
burning and the binding”

25.	Now look, anytime you ever find the word ‘burning’ you cannot
associate it with any other Scripture than the end-time. You simply
can’t do it. If you try to put it anywhere except at the  end-time,
you’re going to find yourself as Bro. Branham said, “The cow on top
of the tree eating grass.” It isn’t going to work. There’s certain
clues in Scripture if you look at you never need to make a mistake.

	Now It says, “The binding and the burning.” So the binding and the
burning is at the end-time according to the parables which we will read.
So therefore, this has nothing to do with the first-age. Hebrews 6: has
nothing to do with the first-age, but is a prophecy as to the wind-up.
It is the parallel to Ephesians the 4th chapter, where they come right
to Christ becomes a Cap-stone spiritual speaking the complete Word of
God, the complete manifestation bringing people into a relationship
which are going to bring the dead out of the ground, and bring us a
Rapture, the whole thing, and then at the same time that which brings
the Church into a maturity. As Bro. Branham said, “The ministry must
be identical to bring the Head.” Right? There then will be those that
fall away and can never come back. Why? Because they’re bound for the
burning. You think God is going to say, “Well now, oh just a minute,
oh, my, my, I just wish I didn’t do these things. But I’m God and I
can do what I want. You know what? I’m going to snip these people
loose from the binding so they won’t burn.”

26.	Can anybody here agree with that kind of a God? And why do people
think that way? “Oh, couldn’t happen to me. Oh, couldn’t happen to
us.” It’s happening, that’s “Thus saith the Lord,” from
William. Branham. Every time you hear a burning there’s only one time
it can burn. And you know as well as I do that’s over in Mal 4:1-6.
And that’s in Mt 3:11-12, where It tells you He’s going to burn up
the tares, gather the wheat. And in 2 Th 1:7-10 it tells you the Judge
is coming down to judge, and they’re separated. And there are those
who are going to be glorified in Him, and He in them and the rest are
going to be burned. See? And then in Mt 13:24-30, 36-43, It tells you
the same thing. 

	So these verses are for the end-time. And at the end-time the people
will literally crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh. And my
statement is this concerning it: If He’s not here to be crucified, how
in the world can the people crucify Him to themselves? Well how is He
going to be noticed to be here? See, these are the things you have to
look at. Nobody wants to listen to the prophet.

27.	Also notice, if repentance runs out, (now watch,) repentance runs
out, then water baptism runs out, or it becomes meaningless. And if
water baptism runs out, then the Baptism with the Holy Ghost runs out,
and that’s exactly what Bro. Branham said, which is found in Ephesians
1st chapter, it’s temporary, there comes a time when nobody can be
born again. And it’s at that time that Headship comes to the Church,
and the entire Bride of the Lord Jesus Christ is made up. And no matter
how much professing you see, not matter how much you hear, and how
wonderful people are, and how marvelous they’re running the world for
God and everything else, it’s all a lie. Because as Bro. Branham
continues, “Let every man’s word be a lie but Mine, the Word of the
Living God.” All right, so the Baptism runs out.

28.	Now, let’s go to Rev 3:21 and look at something here. He said,
“I’ve given her a space to repent of her fornication,” she
didn’t repent. Now, He if gave her a time to repent, and she did not
repent, then it means that that church and all her daughters can never
repent. You say, “Well, I don’t think God should do that.” There
again, why don’t you… Hey, nobody would be Bride with an attitude
like that. Nobody. Who are we to reply against God, and try to put
something to it? We simply can’t do it. 

	Now, He said, “I gave her a space, and she didn’t. So therefore her
daughters in spite of every sign of repentance and everything that looks
wonderful and great, there’re going to go to the great Tribulation and
the Lake of Fire.” And yet the same people that come against us will
repeat out of thin air the devil’s lie, “You shall not surely die,
[Gen 3:3] millions now living are going to go on living,” and that’s
a lie from the pit of Hell, because only eight people made the ark;
which means in type, eight people in this hour (I’m talking percentage
wise) are full of the Holy Ghost.

	Now you understand why Bro. Branham said, “Branham Tabernacle it’s
not enough to say, ‘Oh, that’s great Bro. Branham where everybody
receives the Holy Ghost.’ It’s only enough when you do receive the
Holy Ghost.”

	They say, “Well Bro. Branham can a person know if you receive the
Holy Ghost?”

	He said,  “Can a woman have a baby and not know it, unless she’s
anesthetized?”

	I can tell you one thing brother/sister, there’s no such things in my
books as anybody full of the Holy Ghost that isn’t on fire for the
Word of Almighty God, and the Word of His Presence. Which Bro. Branham
said, “My ministry is to declare that He is here.”

	Oh, they think we’re making some fetish over it. Is it a fetish to
know that God is here and worship Him? They’ve got the fetish.
They’ve got the lie not we who believe.

29.	Now, Matthew the 3rd chapter. If I fall over here being too tired,
just carry me out to the motel, and come back Sunday we’ll finish it.
I admit I’m tired but that’s alright. Mt 3:11.

		(11)	I indeed baptize you with water unto repentance: but he that
cometh 					after me is mightier than I, whose shoes I am not worthy to
bear: he 					shall baptize you with the Holy Ghost, and with fire:

	Now, let’s go to the 2nd chapter of Acts, where we find that Bro.
Branham said, “If the church forgives sins this way, we’re in good
business.” And It says in 37-39,

		(37)	Now when they heard this, they were pricked in their heart, and
said 					unto Peter and to the rest of the apostles, Men and brethren,
what shall 					we do? 

		(38)	Then Peter (answered and) said… Repent, and be baptized every
one 					of you in the name of (the Lord) Jesus Christ for the remission
of sins, 					and (you) shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost.

		(39)	For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all
that are 					afar off, (and so on.)

30.	Now, with that also, we go to the 19th chapter of the Book of Acts,
where Bro. Branham liked to talk about Paul, he went down where the
disciples of John the Baptist were, and he saw some faith there, but
they didn’t have what they should have had. So when they found out
they’re baptized unto John and not in the Lord Jesus Christ, they were
baptized in the Name of the Lord Jesus, and Paul laid hands on them and
they received the Holy Spirit.

	Now, what I’m looking at is here, back in the 3rd chapter in the Book
of Revelation when they did not repent, that’s the time when they must
have turned exclusively to water baptism in the Name of Father, Son and
Holy Ghost. Thereby, bringing in a Trinity to such an extent, from that
time on not one of the children of Rome, which is all the Protestants,
could ever duck that particular curse, that Satan put upon them. So now
they got a complete false baptism. Now you tell me then the false
baptism in this hour can bring about a definitive true Baptism with the
Holy Ghost. It can’t do it. What it will do is bring forth but not
unto repentance, and not unto the Baptism with the Holy Ghost and you
got these neo-Pentecostals, you’ve got the Catholic Church, Anglicans,
you’ve got them all over the world. They speak in tongues, they’ve
been baptized into Trinity, they still kiss the pope’s toe; they’ll
go down the line with their creeds and organizations and say,
“Hallelujah we’ve got God.”

31.	You see what I’m trying to tell you? Repentance is running out if
it hasn’t already run out. Before Bro. Branham died, a couple of years
or so before he died, he said, “I just went criss-cross America for
the last time, (and he said,) maybe fifty people  came in to the altar,
(and he said,) I don’t if any of them got saved.” He said,
“America is all seined out, all fished out. 

	If that was back there, where do we stand today, thirty years later?
I’ll tell you where we stand, we are standing in a crystallized
position, where we’re going to find those people who believe the Word
that want It, and the rest will not do so.

32.	Now, I mentioned categorically, because Bro. Branham said… “The
Baptism of the Holy Ghost runs out,” which is exactly over here in the
Book of Ephesians the 1st chapter, if you haven’t memorized it
yourself, I’ll read it for you.  

		(13)	In whom (you) also trusted, after… (you) heard the word of
truth, 						the gospel of your salvation: (and that leads to
repentance,) whom… 					after (you) believed, (to receive) the holy
Spirit of promise. 		

	And watch, 

		(14)	Which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption the 
					purchased possession, unto the praise of his glory.

	It tells you right there, it runs out. And It tells you when it runs
out what comes on at that particular time. God Himself comes down, and
begins to lead His Church in the Resurrection and the Millennium. 

33.	So, here‘s what we see at this particular time. We are at the
end-time and Hebrews 6: is being fulfilled. Now, to get to the sense of
Hebrews 6: wherein the people crucify to themselves the Son of God
afresh we might possibly go to the Book of Rom 6:9-10, I believe we’re
looking at here.

		(9)	(Now,) knowing that Christ being raised from the dead dieth no 			
		more; death hath no more dominion over him.

		(10)	For in that he died, he died unto sin once: but in that he
liveth, 						he liveth unto God.

	Now, just keep that in mind, and we go to Heb 9:24-26.

		(24)	For Christ is not entered into the holy places made with hands, 	
				which are the figures of the true; but into heaven itself, now to 		
			appear in the presence of God for us:

		(25)	Nor yet that he should offer himself often, as the high priest 		
			entereth into the holy place every year (and the) blood of others.

		(26)	(But) then must he often have suffered since the foundation of			
		the world: but now once in the end of the world hath he appeared 					
to put away sin by the sacrifice of himself.

		(27)	And as it is appointed unto men once to die, but after this the 	
				judgment:

		(28)	So Christ was once offered to bear the sins of many; and unto
them 					that look for him shall he appear the second time without sin
unto 						salvation.

	Now, you see, at this end-time here is where they crucify Him, because
they do not look for Him as necessary for their salvation. You talk
about anybody needing John, rather Elijah coming. One says, “Who needs
Elijah I got Jesus, hallelujah.” See, there’s a complete divorcing
of the Christian mind today from the actual Word of Almighty God, and
it’s not going to work.

	Now, since He can’t be crucified Himself, and He’s going to be
crucified unto them. Now, what you’re looking at then is this: You are
not looking at Jesus crucified, we’re talking in the term now of
Jehovah; God Himself here in the form of the Holy Ghost and a Pillar of
Fire working in and through the prophet, and that of course, he’s
gone.

34.	Now, there’s no way that you can crucify a spirit. It just
doesn’t work. So what are you looking at here? You’re looking at
what I perceive to be in the Book of Galatians, and I will bring you
that particular portion of Scripture, [chapter] 3:13. 

		(13)	Christ hath redeemed us from the curse of the law, being made a 	
				curse for us: for it is written, Cursed is every one that hangeth 		
			on a tree:

	Now, that’s taken from the Book of Deuteronomy over here chapter 21,
and let’s look at it,    18-23, because this is very good.

		(18)	If a man have a stubborn and rebellious son, (oh boy) which will 
					not obey the voice of his father, or the voice of his mother, and
that, 					when they have chastened him, will not hearken unto them:

		(19)	Then shall his father and his mother lay hold on him, and bring
him 					out unto the elders of his city, and unto the gate of his
place:

		(20)	And they shall say unto the elders of his city, This our son is 	
				stubborn and rebellious, he will not obey our voice; he is a
glutton, 					and a drunkard.

		(21)	And all the men of his city (will) stone him with stones… he
(shall) 					die: so shalt thou put evil away from among you: and all
Israel shall 					hear, and fear.

	Now, that’s pretty good right there see. Israel a rebellious people,
the Gentiles calling themselves by God’s Name, “Thou shalt not bear
the Name of the Lord thy God in vain.”           (Ex 20:7] Call
themselves Christians, believer in this and that, full of the Holy Ghost
so called,   and they’re rebellious. They come against the Word of
God, judgment facing.

	Let’s keep reading though,  To hereeee

		(22)	And if a man have committed a sin worthy of death, (this is one
of 						them) and he be…put to death, and thou hang him on a tree:

		(23)	His body shall not remain all night upon the tree, but thou shalt
in any 					wise bury him that day;  for he that is hanged is accursed
of God…

	Are you listening? Now what’s that going to do with your relatives,
your children, your father, your mother, your friends? What are you
going to do about it? Hanging on a tree? That’s what It says right
here. “They crucify to themselves the Son of God afresh.” So they
are now hung on a tree. The world is crucified. It’s not as Paul
saying, “I’ve been crucified unto the world, nevertheless, I live,
yet not I but Christ lives in me.” [Gal 2:20] This talks about an
actual crucifixion, and they’re cursed.  Now, “Cursed is him that
hangs upon a tree.” [Gal 3:13]

		(23)	…that the land be not defiled, which the LORD thy God giveth
thee for 					an inheritance.

	Take away the defilement of the world by crucifying those people. Huh? 
You with me? I lost you. I done lost you haven’t I? Be honest with me.
You understand what I’m saying at this end-time, that this people who
call themselves by His Name are actually crucified and declared guilty
and hung upon a tree, in order that the earth be purified? Doesn’t
that line with the Scripture that tells you absolutely that God will
destroy him that destroys the earth? Huh? 

35.	All right, let’s go to the Bible, I like the Bible, I never have
trouble with the Bible, at least I don’t think I do. Joel 2:21.

		(21)	Fear not, O land; be glad and rejoice: for the LORD will do great
						things.

		(22)	Be not afraid, ye beasts of the field: for the pastures of the
wilderness 					do spring, for the tree beareth her fruit, the fig tree
and the vine do 						yield their strength.

	When? At the time of the latter rain and the former rain falling
together, as it did in the beginning, when a vindicated ministry came
forth proving the Word of God living, as they did in the apostle Paul,
and did in all the great prophets. And at the end-time you’ve got the
same thing here. And those that turn It down, are going to be cursed and
by their cursing and destruction the world will begin to come back, and
no other way.

36.	All right, Jesus Christ the Lamb cannot ever die again. The Lamb
does not come down to earth, only in Revelation 19. And yet if you talk
to people today, and say they believe the Presence, and I could name
names, but I’m not going to bother, you know as well as I do. And you
say, “Who came down?” If you believe the Presence Who came down? And
their faces light up and say, “The Lamb.” The Lamb did cannot come
down! I want to ask you a question in this Tabernacle, “Where did Bro.
Branham say the Lamb is?” Go on tell me, [someone says, “He’s on
the Throne,”]  thank you, “He’s on the Throne.” That was kind of
feeble, some of you guys get scared, you can’t say that … you know,
give me the answers. Don’t be afraid if you know what the prophet
said, you’ve got the answer. 

	The One on the Throne was approached by the Lamb, ripped the Seals off,
put the Book in the hand of Him on the Throne, the One on the Throne
vacated, came down here, the Lamb went on the Throne, now set down on
the Throne, waiting till the enemies become His footstool, which is
going on now. Yes, it certainly is.

37.	All right. Now, He does not come down to earth until Revelation 19.
So, what is it? Okay. Let’s find out. We go to Matthew the 12th
chapter. Matthew 12: is a fabulous chapter. Never, never, never forget
it, it is just so full of the glory of God it’s to be absolutely
marvelous. We’re going to take [verses] 15-21 though to begin with.
Now, 15-21.

		(15)	…Jesus knew it…

	He was having these great crowds and the great healings, and the people
were coming against him to kill him. They took es is against us. Let’s
get rid of it.” See? All right.

		(15)	…Jesus knew it, he withdrew himself…

		(16)	…(He) charged them that they should not make him known.

		(17)	That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by Esaias the prophet
						saying,

		(18)	Behold my servant, whom I have chosen; my beloved, in whom 					
my soul is well pleased: I will put my Spirit upon him, and he shall 			
	shew judgment to the Gentiles.

		(19)	He shall not strive, nor cry; neither shall any man hear his
voice 						in the streets.

		(20)	A bruised reed shall he not break, and smoking flax shall he not 
					quench, till he send forth judgment unto victory.

		(21)	And in his name shall the Gentiles trust. (That’s very, very
wonderfully 					true.)

38.	Now, Mt 12:15-21, is Isa 42:1-7. So let’s go to Isa 42:1-7. And
here’s where we learn to make absolute definitive judgments,
chronological and so on.

		(1)	Behold my servant, whom I (behold); mine elect, in whom my soul			
		delighteth; I have put my spirit upon him: he shall bring forth
judgment 					to the Gentiles. 

	Now It says He’s going to do it. Now,I didn’t say when, but He said
He would. And because   It falls in the gospels, everybody instantly
thinks, “Oh, it was done then.” It wasn’t done then. And here’s
where we learn a tremendous and valuable law that we find in ‘Things
That Are to Be’, where Bro. Branham said, “People don’t
understand, because God said, ‘It shall be, It shall be, It shall
be’,” or let there be.

	 Now, ‘let there be’ could be thousands or millions of years from
the time He said it. So you don’t attempt to have your own chronology
and fit Scripture nicely together how you’d like it. You’ve got to
wait for God’s time and season. And this here tells you flat, because
Jesus never did go to the Gentiles. The closest He came was to the
Samaritans. 

		(3)	A bruised reed shall he not break…smoking flax shall he not
quench…

		(4)	He shall not fail nor be discouraged, till he have set judgment in
the 					earth: and the isles shall wait for his law.	

		(5)	Thus saith…the LORD, he…created the heavens, (and earth. And
so on, 					and so on. In other words, you are seed.)

	Matthew 12: The fulfillment of Isa 42:1-7.

39.	Now, we’re going to go right away to Isaiah 61: And here’s what
I want you to pick up in a hurry. In Isa 61:1-2,

		(1)	The Spirit of the Lord God is upon me; because the LORD hath 					
anointed me to preach good tidings unto the meek; he hath sent me 				
to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim liberty to the captives, 					
and the opening of the prison to them that are bound;

		(2)	To proclaim the acceptable year of the LORD, and the day of
vengeance 					of our God…

	And right there when you go to the Book of Luke you find he stopped
right there. So what I’m trying to show you tonight is, that Isaiah
42, and Isaiah 61 are not the same. So you must not ever think that they
are, because one is positively to Israel, the other is positively to the
Gentiles. Isaiah 61, is the days of His flesh, but Isaiah 42, was the
days of His Spirit at the end-time, where you come to Eph 1:15-17, when
the Spirit of God comes into our midst…let me read It to you right
here, because that’s the best way to do it. He says here,

		(1)	Wherefore I also, after I heard of your faith in the Lord Jesus,
and 						love unto all the saints,

		(2)	Cease not to give thanks for you, making mention of you in my 				
	prayers;

		(3)	That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of glory, may
give 					unto you the spirit of wisdom and revelation in the knowledge
of him: 					(and so on right there.)

	So, we’re looking at this at the very, very end-time.

	Now, so the days of these spirits of Ephesians 1 to 15 and so on, and
consequently Hebrews 6, are in order, and now the consequence of Christ
is the crucifixion of the people themselves on their own crosses of
disbelief and distrust, and they are destroyed, which in turn becomes
the hope of the earth. No more scourge.

40.	Now, the crucifixion of Jesus, look what it did in the Book of Mt
27:25.

		(25	Then answered all the people, and said, His blood be on us, and on
						our children. 

	So, as Israel received its recompense or reward in the seventieth year
AD, when Titus came in and destroyed Jerusalem, so are we going to have
the same things occur here to the Gentiles the destruction that God
promised.

	Now, I was talking to you back over here, in Matthew 12th chapter and
didn’t get into very much, but we look at it here, and starting then
at verses 22-37.

		(22)	(There) was brought unto him one possessed…(of the) devil,
blind, 					and dumb: and he healed him, insomuch that the blind and
dumb 						both (saw) and (spoke).

		(23)	And all the people were amazed, and said, Is not this the son of
David? 					(Now watch, “Is not this the son of David?”)

		(24)	…(And) the Pharisees (said no…, This fellow (doesn’t) cast
out devils, 					but by Beelzebub….

	This is not the Son of David, this is the other guy. This is not the
Son of God, this is the son of the devil. See? Now let’s go and find
out.

		(25)	…Jesus knew their thoughts, and said…, Every kingdom divided 
					against itself is brought to desolation; and every (house) or
(city) 						divided against itself shall not stand:

		(26) 	And if Satan cast out Satan, he is divided against himself; how
shall 					then his kingdom stand?

	Do you know one of Bro. Branham’s the biggest ministries is casting
out devils? He said, “When… devils cast out, the Kingdom of God has
come unto you?” 

		(27)	And if I by Beelzebub cast out devils, by whom do your children
cast 					them out? Therefore they shall be your judges.

		(28)	But if I cast out devils by the Spirit of God, then the kingdom
of God					 is come unto you. (There’s your evidence.)

		(29)	Or (how shall) one enter into a strong man’s house, and spoil
his goods, 					except he first bind the strong man? And then he will
spoil his house.

		(30)	He that is not with me is against me; and he that gathereth not
with me 					scattereth abroad.

		(31)	(Therefore) I say unto you, All manner of sin and blasphemy shall
be 					forgiven unto (them): but the blasphemy against the Holy Ghost
shall not 					be forgiven unto men.

		(32)	…whosoever speaketh a word against the Son of man, it shall be
forgiven 					him: but whosoever speaketh against the Holy Ghost, it
shall not be 					forgiven him, neither in this world, neither in the
world (that is) to come.

		And notice what He said:

		(33)	Either make the tree good, and his fruit good; or else make the
tree 						corrupt, and his fruit corrupt…

	You’re right back to the 7th chapter of Matthew, which goes on to the
White Throne, when He said, “I never knew you, you that cast out
devils and prophesy and do great things in My Name.”

41. So, what you see here, is a continuation from verse 15, where it
says, 15,16,17, the great miracle ministry in the flesh, God in the
flesh of Jesus, that It might be fulfilled which is spoken by Isaiah the
prophet, “Behold my servant,,,” and so on.

	And remember, at that time, “The bruised reed he doesn’t
break…” And this is so important to know this, “The smoking flax
he does not quench, until he sent forth victory, for judgment unto
victory.” [Isa 42:3] And that is 2 Th 1:7-10. So therefore the Bride
today qualifies for the Book of Joel, she’s the victorious army,
beautiful to behold,

	All right, this age then according to Matthew 12: ends in blaspheming
the Holy Ghost, for which there is no repentance. You can seek It all
you want you’re not going to get It, or mediatorial  prayer of the
Lamb. He’s off the Mercy Seat, He’s standing there with the Bride
that says, “You can inherit My throne like I’ve got My
Father’s.” In other words, there’s a promise for this hour. Then
how much good is water baptism doing? Water baptism today is merely
confirming the people in their own understanding, and their own vigorous
battle against Almighty God.

42.	Now, my message is this: That as the Jews in Rome bury the evidence
hoping that the whole scenario would disappear then actually believe
they had overcome the Lamb and vindication so it is today. As soon as
the grave silenced Jesus, they could say and do what they wanted, but in
thirty three years judgment fell and destroyed them. It didn’t pay to
say what they said and do what they did. Now remember, back in those
days they literally crucified Him. Today people crucify Him with their
minds. And when they crucified them Himself, remember, they are
crucifying themselves. And they’ll never repent, there’s no way they
can come back.

	Now, since Bro. Branham died, and ‘Thus Saith the Lord’ of
vindication, that’s the vindication, ‘Thus Saith the Lord’ is
silenced, the world says anything it wants to. Sure, He’s not here to
have anymore Mount Zion showdowns, we’ve had them. They can do and
tell all the lies they want to in complete obedience and compliance to
their false doctrines, that’s right. The prophet is not here to
answer, and none of us is vindicated.

43.	Now, that is that, but not nearly so as those who claim the Message
and preach it for conscience sake. In other words, they saw something,
they know something is there, but they really don’t believe it. They
can’t leave their old creeds and dogmas; they’re messing things up
everywhere they go. There’s one guy runs to Europe all the time. I
wish I’d of saved these sermons that Jack just played here for you.
The guy says he believes Bro. Branham, believes this Message. He took a
story of some imbecile’s, spiritual imbecile’s dream and preached it
…?... thinking. Why would you do that in ‘Thus Saith the Lord’? I
want to know. Why you people might be sitting here, “Oh that’s okay
Bro. Vayle, oh that’s okay.” Merciful God, have you got a conscience
or not? How could you stand by if you do stand by? 

44.	I’m going to tell you, I’d sooner go to Hell being steamed up
the way I am, than go to Heaven the way some people thing they’re
going to get there. In other words, I’m telling you it’s neither
hot… it’s neither luke-warm anymore, it’s either hot or cold,
either frozen stiff, or your soul liquid like a spirit, you can blend
right into the Spirit of Almighty God. The prophet’s not here to
answer, but these guys are preaching for conscience sake, or notoriety,
or money, and only use the Message to destroy the very Message. In other
words, they preach it in such a way as to destroy it. Especially by
those who are putting a new patch. It’s not even a new patch they’re
using; they don’t even understand what they’re saying in many cases.
Talk about the Judge, they don’t have a clue. They don’t want to
have a clue. And why did Bro. Branham say, “I indict this
generation?” They don’t believe it. Of course it’s not my
business, I believe, and my business is to tell you what I believe.

45.	Take a look at this: Look at the Jesus Only people; they have
actually taken over the Trinity believers. Their creeds and dogmas have
pierced the Living Word of God, and drained out the Life Blood, but only
to themselves. Let’s find out if that’s true. I’m not going to
make statements here and not back them up. Let’s go to Hebrews. The
10th chapter of Hebrews will tell us unequivocally. 26-31.

		(26)	For if we sin willfully after that we have received the knowledge
of 					the truth, there remaineth no more sacrifice for sins, 

	There, It tells you right there. If you come against the Word of the
Living God, your sacrifice is useless, you don’t have a sacrifice. So
then, how come they talk about Blood and the Mercy Seat? I don’t care
if the Blood is there on the Mercy Seat, I don’t care what’s there.
The point of the matter is, it doesn’t do them one bit of good.
That’s where we get all messed up with, “Oh, the Blood’s off the
Mercy Seat, oh, my, my, my.”  They look around…like some kind of
a…I can’t say I’s a holy hush, it looks like a vacuous look upon
their faces, “Now what?” 

	Now what? Let’s get the picture, Bro. Branham in one place said,
“He took the Blood up there,” in another place he said, “It fell
upon the ground, went back to the elements.” So what does it matter?
The thing is the Blood was shed; a Life was given for a life. Now, what
does it say here? I ask you a question, and let’s get this flat once
and for all, why did that Life have to be shed? Because they went
against the Word. The Blood will reconcile us back to the Word. How?
Because we get baptized with the Holy Ghost that teaches the truth of
the Word.

46.	Now, It says right here:

		(26)	…if (you) sin willfully… (Which means you come right against
the 					Word of God.) 

	The sacrifice doesn’t do you one bit of good. 

		(27)	But a fearful looking for of judgment and fiery indignation… 

	There’s the word fire again. Heb 6:[10] 

		(28)	He that despised Moses’ law died without mercy under two or
three                 				witnesses:

		(29)	 Of how much sorer punishment, suppose ye, shall he be thought 		
			worthy, who hath trodden under foot the Son of God, (there you 					
are, the Holy Spirit,) and hath counted the blood of the covenant, 					
wherewith he was sanctified, an unholy thing, and hath done 					
despite unto the Spirit of grace?

	His repentance is out, yet people don’t understand why Bro. Branham
brought a Message. You know something about, this is the most marvelous
thing in my sight I could ever look at or tell you people. If God wanted
to bring the people strong delusion He couldn’t do it in a better way
than He did it. You say, “Who needs Bro. Branham. I got the Bible.”
You got this…have you really? Then why don’t you come with the
prophet and say, “Mr. Prophet I’m going to back you in a corner,
because I’m not Jannnes or Janmbre, but I think you are, let us have a
show-down.  They didn’t have the guts, the whole bunch together. 

	What about the time in India? Why do you think the Muslims are going to
go down? Why do you think there’s no redemption?  He stood there with
that whole bunch, and he said, “Now here’s a man that’s blind by
looking at the sun, a sun worshipper. Tell me which one will come forth
in the name of his god and give this man sight.” Nobody came. “Oh,
(he said,) you were vociferous  a while ago. You were talking, oh you
were talking, (he said,) come on now,) and he said, “What if I pray in
the Name of my God and the man gets his healing, what then?

	“Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah.” 

	Are you to say, “Yeah, yeah, yeah,” too? “Well then we’ll get
some too.”

47.	They weren’t about to be convinced. And he names the Shiites and
the Jannes and the whole bunch, the Hindus the whole bunch. And that man
stood there with his sockets hardly full of eyes, the eyes wasted away,
Bro. Branham having had the vision came forth in the Name of the Lord
Jesus Christ “receive your sight,” and the man screamed out, he saw.
What’s happened since then? Nothing! Are you telling me they’re not
condemned? You say, “Bro. Vayle, I want to tell you something, it’s
their leaders.” 

	Didn’t Bro. Branham say, “They were blinded?”

	Didn’t Jesus say, “Blind, leaders of the blind fall in a ditch?  

	I don’t want to hear some carping and bellyaching, I want to hear
truth. We may die for it one of these days. I hope I’ve got the
courage, I imagine I will have somehow. Yeah. Do they believe what the
prophet meant when he said, “We are not Oneness.” Certainly not.
They have not changed at all. They take their hard line doctrine of one
God and destroy the Son. Sure. Bro. Branham said, “Jesus was not His
own Father.” What was it that Hyslop brought back from the Orient?
Squint eyed virgin, with a son on her lap and said, “The son is the
husband of the mother.” Boy, if that isn’t something. See? They have
not changed, the Oneness and Trinity will not say that Bro. Branham
preached two gods, they deny, they say, “He never preached two gods,
but Lee Vayle did.” Is that so when I quote the prophet day and night?
When the prophet said, “Now there’s two of Them.” Am I supposed to
come back and say, “Now you wonderful Oneness people there’s really
not.”

48.	What’s wrong with the Oneness and what’s wrong where people are
going astray? They don’t understand the doctrine of the absoluteness
of one God. That’s why Bro. Branham can talk about God manifesting in
the Son that time that Light came forward. That’s why he could do it,
and he did it. That’s why he could say, “In the bosom of the
Father.” I quoted everything in the ‘Church Age Book’ what he did,
because we were discussing the absoluteness of the Oneness, not the Son
and the family of God. 

	Man said, “But Bro. Vayle if there’s two of them there’s two
personalities.” 

	I said, “Absolutely, that’s what Bro. Branham taught.” 

	“Oh there’s two personalities there’s two gods.”

	I said, “Hold it. Do you believe you’re born again?”

	“Oh, yeah, yeah.”

	“Do you believe you’re a son of God?”

	“Oh, yeah, yeah.”

	“Do you believe then that gene in your soul is eternal and came from
God, and you’re part of God?”

	“Yeah, yeah, yeah.”

	I said, “There’s three million more like it, now, we’ve got three
million gods.”

	Now, do you people understand what I’m trying to tell you tonight?
Oh, come on you look too blank for me, come on. I want the women to perk
up, the men to perk up and begin to understand we’re not tripling up
here, my days are running out. One God who’s Son was preexistent, Who
had a Word body, a Spirit body, and at one time known as Michael and
shared in the moving of the Spirit of God in worship. What are you going
to do about it? Came down in flesh and became the mask of Almighty God.
What are you going to do about it? Bro. Branham said, “You and I came
just like He did, except for one thing, He didn’t bypass that
theophonic form, that Spirit Word body, (he said,) you and I did in
order to be tempted and tried, (and he said,) the Baptism with the Holy
Ghost then makes us commensurate to it.”

49.	Now let your Oneness people quote me, quote the prophet, the
Trinitarians the same way. I’ve got no axe to grind, but you… I’ve
sort of invited myself down here and Jack said it was okay. So, I got a
four bladed axe to have a little bit of time with see. All right. “Oh,
Lee Vayle preaches two gods,” I do not. For if I’m a two god
believer, then so is William Branham, it’s that simple. The prophet
fountain of God’s Word cannot give bitter and sweet water or lies and
truth out of the one mouth.

	Yes, the world has crucified to itself the Son of God. Actually
they’ve done it in every age until the last age. There’s no more
time to repent. Because each age ended before this one with that
crucifixion, the denial of the Word, denial of God’s servant, God laid
them away and judged that nation, but that Tree kept coming on from the
life of the root until finally it would be that majestic Tree that God
planted by the waters in Psalm 1, which we know to be true as a Bride.
It’s got to manifest itself brother/sister, but at the end time there
comes that time when repentance is over. Water baptism is over as to the
true significance. And the true Holy Ghost is no longer baptizing,
merely anointing, but I believe it’s all but over. I can’t tell when
it’s going to be, I don’t intend to even try, but it must be pretty
soon.

50.	The world has crucified to itself the Son of God. They have set at
nought God Himself and said, “Away with this God of William Branham we
will have nothing to do with him.” Yet like the Jews they claimed to
worship and serve Him whom they crucified, a remembrance to themselves
and hanging on the tree as a curse. Yeah. Rid the world of its plagues
by getting rid of the plague artist. The Rhema Logos God the Jehovah
Elohim God is scorned and buried in the tombs of unbelief, having been
first murdered, and then wound up in the shroud of creeds and dogmas.
But the same Pillar of Fire is here as it was in the days of Paul. That
same Pillar of Fire led Israel in the Promisd Land, and He will soon
show that His crucifixion by the Gentiles was unto themselves, not Him
they couldn’t do it He’s a Spirit, and will bring forth all the
briars and tares into a burning, And we know Bro. Branham said,
“They’re bound already.” 

	Theologians, historians and clergy and laity, and all enemies are
trying to bury the evidence of His Appearing and His Presence. I wonder
how many people really know the Appearing is the Presence, the Presence
is the Appearing?  How many in this Message? Especially the Judge.
Especially the Judge Who has been Judge through all Seven Ages, every
Church Age judged by the Word, but at the end-time with the perfect
revelation and manifestation of God, there is no further repentance,
except on the grounds of having the mind change through this Message.
And Bro. Branham said, “That’s the greatest battle of all time.”
They have passed it all off as the fake and a fraud in some cases. They
have hidden it from the people and now they mock the evidence or
vindication as though it were merely a gift from God to inpire
Christianity unto higher heights, and not judge it.

51.	Oh, they had a lot of trouble with Bro. Branham, because he was a
judge and he stood up there and was counted, and then when he was killed
by the motor accident [End of side two] …and the Oneness preacher
said, “Well thank God he got killed, it’s about time.” You say,
“There’s a difference today from two thousand years ago.” Not one
bit, except there’s more of them. No difference, it’s all the same.
Yes, the Judge. 

	How do you bury a spirit? How can you stop the Word? Let me just say
this trying to wind down. The disciples and friends of Jesus saw him
crucified and saw his burial. And remember one of them was Judas. And
remember, He said, “Have I not chosen you twelve, and one of you is
diabolist, one of you is the devil.”  And Bro. Branham said, “I know
who my Judas is also.” And Judas was actually quite fond of Jesus.
According to the Greek he gave him an affectionate kiss, the kiss of
death, the kiss of seduction. Judas was a devil. I said he was a devil.
He was anointed with the Holy Ghost, a cast out devil yes. It wasn’t
the devil in Judas casting out devils, it was the Holy Spirit. We’ll
get to the spirit. 

52.	He raised the dead with the rest, and he did not go behind Jesus’
back and say, “Now I’m going to tell you people something, that’s
Jesus of Nazareth, but you know, he thinks he’s the Son of God, but he
really isn’t. Now he’s not Messiah. I want to tell you, I know all
about him. Let me give you the real dope on him.”

	He never did that. We’ve got the same Judas’ right today. They blow
up Bro. Branham right to the hilt to the tops. But the minute you talk
about the Presence and the Judge, and the things that we know absolutely
assuredly that Bro. Branham said time after time, after time, after
time, after time, so you can’t miss it, they don’t care two-bits
about it. Then have you shouting and screaming, “Can you say,
‘Amen’.” They’d have you jumping and dancing, that’s fine,
swing from the chandeliers. I’d appreciate it, if when you come down
you stay with the Word of God. Not some foolish thing that people bring
around. We haven’t got time for that. At least I hope we don’t. See?


53.	All right, so let them deny what we know to be true. Let them try to
bury it, they cannot do it. For there is a Bride and we believe we’re
a part of that Bride. And if they bury us as part of that evidence we
have no reason to fear, because the Bible says, “Fear not him that can
kill the body, but cannot kill your soul, fear Him that can do both.”
I don’t think for one minute; believe for one minute that God called
us this far to dump us.

	When Israel saw Elijah taken up by the Pillar of Fire, they said,
“Well, God took him up to dump him somewhere.” They began looking
for him. I’ve got news for you, I don’t think any of us are going to
be that caliber we expect that God’s going to dump us somewhere; I
don’t believe that for one minute. He’s going to take us in, and
take us up with Him. Let them deny, the prophet Elijah has come and
restored all. 

54.	How come in this Message so many people say, “The Seventh Seal is
not opened?” If you’ve got seven seals on the back of a book, and
one of those seals has not been taken off, the book is not open.
Somebody’s got some funny ideas. Actually, they are sacrilegious
ideas; they are death dealing ideas; because if that Book is not open,
then the Seven Thunders have not thundered. Bro. Branham said, “They
had.” 

	Why do you look for That which is already come? That’s what the Jews
did, and in doing it they crucified the One that did come, Who was That
One that was to come. See? No, so let them bury whoever they will, and
let them hate if they so desire to hate, that’s their business not
ours. 

	Let them take every step to deny we have seen the ‘former and latter
rain’ and are part of it. “Why do you looking for that which is
already here?”  Do you know why? Because they want great big signs and
wonders to back up their jumping, their hollering, hooting and
everything else. “Now the voice is in the Bride, now the power…”
Is that a fact? Vindication never was the Bride’s. Vindication
belonged to the prophet. God vindicating Himself to the prophet, the
prophet vindicated to the people, then what’s the end result? Word!
They don’t want the Word. That’s their business, but they don’t
like it when we come against it. No, “we’ve got a bad spirit.”
It’s the funniest thing in the world…they’re coming around now to
the Presence. They say, “Well, the reason we didn’t take it you see,
Lee Vayle has such a bad spirit.” My understanding is that you have to
have the mechanical word before you get the anointing. So how come
I’ve got a mechanical word just right, when they with the so called
‘Holy Ghost’ haven’t even got that much? 

55.	I’m not here to start a fight or defend myself; I just want to
know some answers that’s all. Let’s put in on the table. Put it on
the table. If I’m wrong come and show me. Can’t do it. You know why
they can’t do it? Because I’ve taken sermon after sermon of Bro.
Branham’s, word by word, by word, right back to the Bible and back to
the other messages. I’m not worried about one little thing. See? No. 

	Let’s look at it this way, what are they doing? They take every
doctrine and twist it back to their old understanding to make Bro.
Branham justifiy them. You know that can be done by a lot of preachers.
You want to hold on to something you’ve got, you can just twist it
right around to make Bro. Branham say it. But he didn’t say it. No,
it’s been done everywhere. But who needs the evidence they’re trying
to bury and will bury? We don’t need any more evidence, we’ve
already had it. It’s too late, we’ve already seen and utilized the
evidence or vindication and now the life is in the Word which is in the
Bride to bring forth the promises God wants you to have at this time.
The Life of ‘Thus Saith the Lord’ went to the restored gospel of
Paul, and the Life of the Word is in that Bride and that Message that
Life is going to bring Her to the Wedding Supper. We have been crucified
to the world, that’s the way we must be. Buried with Christ and risen
with Him, and now we can live if we want to; that good Christian Life
Bro. Branham spoke of. To live under God and worship and serve Him,
being one with Him now and forever more.

56.	I want to close with the words of Peter in the 2nd chapter of the
Book of Acts, this is the alpha and here’s the omega as we bring it
today verse 22,

		(22)	(You) men of Israel, hear these words; Jesus of Nazareth, a man 	
				approved of God among you by miracles and wonders and signs, 					
which God did by him in the midst of you as (you) yourselves also 					
know:

	Let’s take that right back to Moses: “Listen you men of Israel, you
know that God approved Moses, you know that he was approved by signs and
miracles and wonders that God did by him in the midst of you, and
you’re laying hold of that, and you’re saying that’s true,
that’s wonderful.” 	

	That’s exactly what Jesus Christ Himself told them. “You talk about
Moses; you don’t even know what you’re talking about. If you knew
what you’re talking about, you’d recognize that I am that prophet
that Moses spoke of. Look at the signs, look at the wonders. Understand
Moses did not do one thing of himself, he didn’t bring the fly, he
didn’t bring blood, he didn’t bring frogs, he didn’t bring the
boils, the carbuncles, he didn’t bring anything like that at all. It
was God that did it.”

57. As Moses stood there and he said, “Listen, watch me, I am that
prophet.” That’s what’s being said right here. But this time
it’s the Holy Ghost…Himself. 

		(23)	Him, being delivered by the determinate counsel and foreknowledge
of 					God, (you) have taken, and by wicked hands have crucified and
slain:

	“Well bless God, if God said He was going to die that way, I’m the
one to do it. Why do God…blame me? “Who art thou man to reply
against God?” For this cause have I raised Thee up to show My power.
[Ex 9:16] 

	 Do you know something? What was the one doctrine that people really
turned on before Bro. Branham died? Predestination. They couldn’t take
it. I’ve seen them look me in the eye, one guy did, he’s dead now,
he bugged me until I gave him the chapter in the Church Age Book to
read. When he saw predestination he became livid. I mean he was livid
with rage, he said, “Bro. Branham did not teach that.” 

	I said, “On the contrary, I got it from him.”

	And he grew angry vicious until he got to the prophet and found out
that’s exactly what the prophet said. Then he had to come and
apologize. I’m not interested in these apologies or anybody else’s.
So I had such little respect for the prophet that I wouldn’t write
what he wanted? Oh, the arrogance of some people, they’ve got it all
figured out. Not knowing that when you judge somebody else, God’s
already judged you. You say, “What are you doing judging him?” I’m
not…I’m telling you what happened; there’s no judge here at all.
But I’ll meet you at the White Throne. Not a bit of  problem.

58.	Now listen, here’s what He said, [Acts 2:]

		(24)	Whom God hath raised up, having loosed the pains of death:
because 					it was not possible that he should be holden of it.

		(25)	For David speaketh concerning him, I foresaw the Lord always
before 					my face, for he is on my right hand, that I should not be
moved:

		(26)	Therefore did my heart rejoice, and my tongue was glad; moreover
also 					my flesh shall rest in hope:

		(27)	Because thou wilt not leave my soul in hell, neither wilt thou
suffer 					thine holy one to see corruption.

		(28)	Thou hast made known to me the ways of life… (and right on down
					the line.) 

	Notice,

		(30)	Therefore being a prophet, and knowing that God had sworn with an
					oath to him, that of the fruit of his loins, according to the
flesh…would 					raise up Christ to sit on his throne;

		(31)	He seeing this before spake of the resurrection of Christ, that
his soul 					was not left in hell, neither his (body) see corruption.

		(32)	This Jesus hath God raised up, whereof we (are all) witnesses.

	Same thing right today, I want you to read this with your mind on the
Word of this hour.

		(33)	Therefore being by the right hand of God exalted, and having
received 					of the Father the promise of the Holy Ghost, he hath shed
forth this 					which ye now see and hear.

		(34)	(It was not) David (who was) ascended into (heaven): but saith
himself, 					The Lord said unto my lord, Sit thou on my right hand. 

	The Lord shall descend in a Shout (yep,) the Voice and the Trumpet,
right down the line. They are going to meet the Lord in the air. What
Lord? “

		(34)	…The Lord said to my lord, Sit (down) on my right hand.

59.	People won’t put the Word together, they can’t do it. But here
we are right here an actual Omega of what took place back there. These
men stood up and said, “Look, I want to tell you something, ‘we saw
the ministry and don’t try to pervert it, because the minute you come
against it, you yourself not having the power of God to demonstrate
anything, except your big mouth don’t even talk to us’.” Why
should I waste my time with a bunch of people, just talk, talk, talk,
talk, talk? Why should I waste my time? I was a witness to the glory of
God in that man’s ministry. I saw things that not very many be here
could possibly seen outside of…you’re with him a few times as I was
with him. I wasn’t with him as many times as others were. But I can
tell you one thing, I have this witness that I know that this same One,
the same Holy Spirit is here today, Son of God, and the people have
crucified to themselves the Son of God afresh, and put Him to an open
shame.

	Now listen, to do that what are they worthy of? Well a person might say
they are worthy of death?  The question really is this, “What made
them do it?” Well, I think you know the answer. The Bride is the
people apart. 

60.	Jesus said, “The prophets prophesied these things that they
themselves could not see. True. Do you know that Paul spoke of this and
he couldn’t see it? Do you know that Peter spoke of it and he
couldn’t see it? Do you know those great men back there and there were
men through the ages as Bro. Branham said, “Luther looked for the
Pillar of Fire, thought he was going to have it and didn’t?” Wesley
did the same thing. The Pentecostals thought they had it but didn’t.
And there He was, God in that Pillar of Fire, Jehovah, Jehovah Elohim
doing the same mighty works. And the people turned and they crucified to
themselves the Son of God afresh, put an open shame, and thereby they
have taken their guilt and the guilt of their children upon themselves.
They have made the Blood of Jesus Christ naught. There’s no room for
repentance. There’s no baptism with the Holy Ghost. When we’re out
of here He goes to a 144,000 Jews out of millions. Only 144,000, the
rest will die.

61.	So there it is brother/sister on Good Friday, they killed Him with
the help of the Catholics, Rome killed Him, the organizations, and then
they did their best to bury the evidence, but you know what? He came
back and fooled them, and one of these days as we go down this road,
perhaps a little bit disheartened, a little bit broken hearted, and say,
“Where’s the promise, where are all these things come?”  I’ve
got news for you, He’s going to Appear, He’s going to cause a Bride
to appear let me put it that way, coming out of the earth and a people
being changed. Oh yes, He’s living, He’s living. It’s the people
that get crucified and they do it to themselves. You say, “Bro. Vayle
how am I going to live? There’s your answer right tonight, believe.
Just believe. All right, let’s rise and be dismissed, the Lord bless
you. 

	Heavenly Father, we want to thank You for Your kind mercy and goodness
to us that You have given to us Lord, in this hour of vindication,
that…it’s just a repeat Lord, is what Bro. Branham said, and it is
true. It’s a repeat at a different hour, same circumstances, the same
things indicated all the way through. And the same thing coming, only
this time Lord, we know there’s a winding up. And tonight Father,
we’re not angry with anyone per se, got an axe to grind with anybody,
but Lord, we do get upset at times concerning these things we know to be
so true, and people are being held back, they hold the truth back in
unrighteousness Lord, denying the very God that bought them. Help us
Lord, to not to be of that kind of a thought, or that kind of a spirit,
but to just Lord, be of that spirit that brings forth the things as they
ought to be brought forth in Your Word. Where the people can be edified,
where could be life, life Lord, that’s everlasting unto them. Not just
something here for the time being as Paul said, “If we believe in
Christ and there’s no resurrection in this life only we’ve got some
hope something being done for us, we are of all men most miserable.”
Lord, we know that. That’s the same with us today, we’ve seen the
power of the Resurrection and there will be one, absolutely, and we have
not believed in vain.

	So we thank You for this time we’ve spent together Your people whom
we love, and we know they love You Lord, the Word. Grant to us little
journey mercies on the way to our motel, and places Father, go to bed to
get good rest and sleep and refreshed and come back Sunday for Easter
message and dedication Lord. Now unto the King Eternal, immortal,
invisible, the Only Wise God be all power, honor and glory through Jesus
Christ our Savior. Amen.
