Romans 5:

Bro. Lee Vayle   - July 2, 1980

	

	Heavenly Father, we come to again in Jesus’ name, Lord that you
quicken the mind, and the mind of itself is unable because it is carnal
to receive the things of God, and to know the things of God which are so
vital; because it's got to get down into the heart, into the soul the
very life. And we pray therefore, Lord, that you quicken our minds
tonight to receive those things which are pertinent in Your Word, and
sacred to the believers, O God. Help us therefore to glorify Thy Name in
this portion of the service by right and proper meditation upon the
Word. And we'll be careful to give You the praise in Jesus' Name. Amen.
You may be seated.

 	I want to thank you for your prayers, and I know several other
churches have also prayed, and I'm certainly grateful believing the Lord
to undertake at this particular time.

1.	Now, I want to read in Romans 5: and we'll just take some verses
there and perhaps they might be pertinent to this hour in which we live.
It says: 

		(1)	Therefore (having been) justified by faith…

	Now, I think there's pretty well you cannot pick up any Bible that
doesn't have a margin reference for any comment on that verse, but
you'll find that the King James version is quite erroneous. It does not
say, "Therefore 'being' justified," as though that is the process which
is going on. It is a past tense work. "Therefore, having been justified
by faith." The word 'justified' is as Bro. Newel the great teacher out
of Moody many, many years ago, so that's the forensic term, (a legal
term) which means; that God hath declared the person righteous.

	And in there we find that also that God justifies the sinner. Which
means that God calls the sinner righteous, showing that there that the
person himself is literally void of any righteousness himself, but it is
through God Who gives him the pronouncement of being righteous. And
you'll notice that God declares the sinner righteous. This is why, self
righteousness, and works are an abomination. And why the Armenian
doctrine is so pitiful and woeful and lacking in glorifying God. Because
God declares the sinner righteous. And He declares it of course on the
grounds of the next phrase: 

		(1) 	…we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:

	And because the person has been declared righteous, a peace has been
declared between God and the sinner who is now declared righteous.

2.	And again, we find that there is no student who doesn't agree that
this terminology here has nothing to do with the peace of God that
passes understanding that is in the heart of the man. But this is where
the king is at peace with the rebels who would justifiably have been
destroyed because of their rebellion and treason. Many people of course
are prone to, (and I guess I'm one, and I supposed you're with me) that
were very prone to blame Adam for our present position. And that's in a
measure true. But there's none of us as judged because of Adam's sin,
we're judged because of our own sins.

	Then of course, we realize that God has made a way for us, because he
says, "As in Adam all die, even so in Christ all shall be made alive."
[1 Cor 15:22] So, there is a peace. In other words, God is at peace with
the sinner. He's not angry with the sinner that comes to Him through
Jesus Christ. There is no place where God can be angry with anybody He
has declared righteous.

3.	And you'll find that Paul brings this out in Romans 8: when he says:

		(30) 	Moreover, whom he did predestinate, them he also called: and
whom 					he called, them he also justified: (that's to declare
righteous) and whom 					he (declared righteous) he also glorified.

	Now, if that took place looking forward to the Blood, what takes place
looking back on the Blood.   

		(31) 	What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who
can be 					against us?

	Now watch where the peace with God comes in.

		(32) 	He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all,
how 					shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

		(33) 	Who shall lay anything to the charge of God's elect? It is God
that 						(justifies).

	As 'Wuest' translation, said, "Who dares arraign me in God's court, God
says I am 				righteous."

		(34) 	Who is he that (condemns me to death?)  It is Christ that died,
yea 						rather, is risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who
also 						maketh intercession… 

	Now, you will see here that God not only is at peace and cannot be
angry with any of His children, but He goes to their defense in a
monumental way, in that a claim against the born again Christian cannot
be levied. And he brings out the fact, "who also maketh intercession." 

4.	So, there is no way that God can ever be angry with anybody. Child
training is not anger. The Scripture distinctly says that Paul bringing
that out that our parents they've trained us, and they rebuked us, and
they whipped us in their own spirit, in their own anger, in their own
decision. But God only deals with us in order to bring out that which
lies within the spirit and depth of the individual. And we saw that
exemplified in the Bride wherein Christ gave Himself for a Church. 

	As I said a little while back that, "I'm maybe the rottenest example."
I don't know of any man sitting here is any better example than I am,
but what man brings out the best in his wife being the stronger vessel.
No, not one of you. If you are, I'd like to come up and have you shake
my hand. And I'll present you, before God gets the chance. (See?) The
matchless grace of Almighty God.

5.	Now, he says here this is ours through Christ:  [Romans 5:]

		(2) 	By whom also we have access by faith into this grace wherein we 	
				stand, … 

	Now, you'll notice here that the grace wherein you stand is the peace
with God. That God cannot be angry with anybody that's born again. God
cannot be angry with His Bride. How can He be angry at the Bride, (we
just brought that a minute ago) as he says over here in Ephesians
chapter 5:

		(23) 	…the husband is the head of the wife, even as Christ is the
head 						of the church: and he is the saviour of the body.

		(24) 	Therefore, as the church is subject unto Christ, let the wives
be to 						their own husbands…    

		(25) 	Husbands, love your wives, … (and so on.) as Christ also loved
the 						church, and gave himself for it;

		(26) 	That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water
by 						the word,

		(27) 	That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not
having spot, 					or wrinkle, …

	That's like a husband that's so good, if his wife can't cook, he
teaches her to cook, and he actually makes the meal for her. I was a
pretty good husband like that myself when I got married. But now my wife
has got to do it all. But, that's the truth. You can see here…what
Christ has done and is doing. In other words, you might say what God has
done and is doing, because of Christ.

 	Now, we have access by faith in this grace where God cannot be angry.
Training yes, helping yes, blessing yes, caring yes, and doing those
things which are vital and necessary to bring out within the Bride, or
the individual what is there, that is the…by the Spirit of God.	

	And Bro. Branham explained that where the Word gets way down in the
soul, and then by the Holy Spirit It begins to work out according to the
Word those graces that lie there, so the flesh is not involved in the
things that should not be involved in. Now, It says here that God is not
angry with the people, because of the Lord Jesus Christ.

6.	Now, we're going to back to Romans 1: and you'll see here the wrath
of God has been allayed and completely turned from the sinner who comes
through Jesus Christ.

	Verse 18. 

		(18) 	For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all
ungodliness 					and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in
unrighteousness;

		(19) 	Because that which may be known of God is manifest in them; for 
					God hath shewed it unto them.

	And then, right on down the line, It says in 21,

		(21) 	Because, when they knew God, they glorified him not as God, 				
	neither thankful; (they) became vain in their (reasonings) and their 		
			foolish heart was darkened.

	In other words, vain is wicked and idolatrous:  

		(22) 	Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools, (which is, 
					professing themselves to be sophist, or sophisticated they became 	
				insipid and that's this age where God wants to vomit.)

		(23) 	And changed the glory of the uncorruptible God into an image
made 					like to corruptible man, and to birds, and fourfooted
beasts… 

		(24) 	…(so Gave) gave them up to uncleanness through the lusts of
their 						own hearts, to dishonour their own bodies between
themselves:

		(25) 	Who changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshipped and
served 					the creature more than the Creator…

	And that's in the church right today through hierarchies and the papal
institution, which is going to bring about the creature worship instead
of God. Like Mary's worship right now, and saints are being worshipped
and every place you go you've got man has interjected himself, until God
Who came down in this last days to head up the Church and to raise the
dead. He's the… nobody takes time to even spit on it.

7.	You know something? You know why people can't stand to get old? 
Because nobody wants them anymore, they're useless. Well, how useful is
God tonight Who came down to head the Church up and raise the dead? They
don't even know He's here. The people in this Message, are the ones that
absolutely tear me to pieces and raise my dander no end, because they
keep pointing to themselves, and point to themselves. That's idolatry!
Creature wanting a worship and some type of satisfaction. (See?) 

		(26) 	…God (gives) them up unto vile affections: …

	You think you've seen anything yet amongst us? I've mentioned a few
things that take place. Let's read what the Bible says.

		(26)	…vile affections: women (changing) natural use (in) that which
I						s against nature:

		(27) 	…likewise, also the men, leaving the natural use of the woman,
						burned in their lust one toward another; men with men working that
					which is unseemly, receiving in themselves that recompence of their
					error which was meet.

	You don't believe that's right, study your statistics on venereal
diseases.  

		(28) 	… they did not like to retain God in their knowledge, (and)
God 						gave them reprobate mind(s), …

	You know that can be right today. God's right here having come down,
veiled in a Pillar of Fire, making manifest that He's the Head of the
Church. And don't even give Him time, and literally spit on Him as it
were. What's it going to do to people? Well, it's got me so nervous I
could go plumb through the roof. You people tonight, you think that my
major problems is my arthritis. It is not that, I'm so desperate inside
ready to blow my stack. Literally I’m ready to commit suicide, because
I'm so fed up which what goes on. And I can't reach out and find it as
it were. Like a man grasping for a door knob in the dark…and not even
a door to reach. I'm not kidding you. 

 	There's a lack of understanding. You think that this is going to go on
forever, reprobate mind?  I'm going to tell you, there's only one place
a person can turn to when they get that far, and that is the sensual
activity, the body which goes to a place where there isn't any limit.
The Bible says so.

8.	Just like in Germany when the Russians walked in East Germany, the
Germans promised that they'd get the staff out. I read this right in the
Veterans Magazine which doesn't tell lies. And in there when they didn't
get the staff out, and the German hierarchy all left, and the Russians
came in, they stripped their clothes off, drank booze and got into
filthy orgies.

	You say that's not going to happen. You're sick. You need someone to
jar you tonight. And I'm talking in the sense of the principle and not
in the individuals here, when the sense of the sick principle of this
world. (See?) It says right here:   

		(29) 	…unrighteousness, fornication, wickedness, covetousness, 					
	maliciousness; full of envy, murder, debate, …

	You can debate this Message left and right and get nowhere. It's
knowing the doctrine. It's knowing the truth. See, we're nothing but a
bunch of Presbyterian's and Baptist fighting back and forth with quote
Bro. Branham, quote this and quote that. But who knows the doctrine,
who's preaching and understands that God Himself came down and set
Himself at the Head of the Church? I'm talking right out of the Book of
Ephesians. Not talking about something that isn't. That's been done in a
corner, because God has never done a thing in a corner.

9.	Listen, if this ministry of William Branham was the revealing of
Almighty God was done in a corner, then Jesus was done far greater in a
corner. Three Wise men came following a star, a few shepherds came. And
a king said, "Let's kill Him before He gets to be a big fellow." A few
of the Sanhedrin knocked Him down, and hung Him upon a Cross. That was
nothing compared to illumination that came forth of God revealing
Himself in this last hour. It was not done is a corner. The Baptist
turned It down, the Methodist, Presbyterian, Pentecost got a hold and
sneered at It, because He said, "There's one God." And there is one God.
Cut Him up in three pieces like a sausage if you want to. What utter
nonsense. (See?) 

	Now,  

		(29)	…fornication, wickedness, covetousness, maliciousness; full of
envy, 					murder, debate, deceit, malignity; whisperers,

		(30) 	Backbiters, haters of God, despiteful, proud, boasters,
inventors of 						evil things, disobedient to parents, (that's in the
Book of Timothy, 						happens in the last days.)

		(31) 	Without understanding, covenant breakers, without natural
affection, 					implacable, unmerciful:

	You know, just the same as I do everything goes in cycles. If He's "The
same yesterday, today and forever," [Heb 13"8] He's meeting the same
issues, and the issues are the same that have to be met. And if God in
His righteousness and His ways of dealing with sins is identical, then
the identical problems are there in the identical things. You tell me
that you were in a different age than this. Now:

		(32) 	Who knowing the judgment of God…are worthy of death, not only 
				do the same, but have pleasure in them.

	How do they know, and how did they know there was a judgment coming?
Because God manifested Himself before the flood. How? In a prophet.
(See?) And there was a little of people getting ready to go in.

10.	Now, what I'm trying to show you in the Book of Romans chapter 5,
that is exactly where the wrath, we are saved from tonight, and God
could see all this going on.  Over there in the Book of Corinthians It
mentions the condition of men It says, "Such were some of you, but now
you're washed, now you're cleansed." The Bride cannot boast in one
single solitary thing concerning herself. She can only boast in Jesus
Christ. "My hope is build in nothing less, then Jesus' Blood and
righteousness." (See?)  "On Christ the solid Rock I stand, all other
ground is sinking sand."

	Now, we have access to Him, and the wrath of God is turned away from
Bride, that's why she will not go into the tribulation. The wrath of God
comes upon the world as such as this. And I'm going to tell you
something: God looks down upon that Bride through the Blood. "And sin is
scattered until there be no evidence."

	I like said, he hit it right on the head. He never said, "O man, get to
the place where so righteous man, so good, and God just stands as being,
that Jesus Christ the righteous of the world. But it's now a matter of
fact the Blood stands there and scatters sin. And there's no evidence of
the sin, how can you have dragged a man into court when there's no
evidence of sin. Or, you might get some stupid shyster lawyer, or some
crack-pot judge. Like this La Bruta up here that was taking some sexual
favors from women. No wonder the police force is so rotten. They're so
loused up and rotten filthy with sickness' and sin themselves like the
judges. We haven't got a prayer, it's going to take the righteousness of
God to hit this earth, He'll hit it don't worry.

	You say, "Bro. Vayle, what hit you?" Well, praise God I'll need hitting
that's all. I told you more than one time, if I had to believe what some
people believe, I'd sooner go to hell and burn and get it over with. I
preach her tough, but it's the only thing is a tough Gospel. God's got a
tough Gospel what Jesus Christ did.

11.	It is imputed to us therefore, God is at peace with a Bride today.
Sin on every hand and degradation. I like what Bro. Branham saw,
mentioned more than one time, it gets more and more into us to lead us.
And he saw that woman and she looks so horrible, and she was so weighed
down in sin, and he judged her from his heart.  

	I was in a meeting one time when he literally did the same thing, but
under different circumstances, and he said, "Lee, I owe that woman an
apology."

	And I said, "What for?"

	"Well, (he said) I looked at her, and I saw her there with her hair cut
short, and you know how they dye their hair that kind of purple…blue
color looks like an Easter chicken," you know, that's the truth, looks
like an Easter chicken. And he said, "I sat there, (he said) I was
judging her, and God spoke and said, 'I want to tell you something
William Branham, she's the most spiritual person in this room'." God
have pity, what were the rest like? I was there. I had my hair cut
right, and maybe I didn't have my tongue just right. Hearts just right,
and other things just right.

	God spoke to him and said, "You literally owe an apology, you judged
her." When he saw that woman in Toledo, he saw the circle of Blood
around the earth, and God said, "That same circle of Blood, that's
saving you is saving her. She's back slidden, you go over there and talk
to her." (See?)

12.	Now, that's what we're talking about here. We're talking about
desperate things. Were the man's a wrath of Almighty God, and Jesus
Christ standing there. We have peace tonight, God's at peace. Oh I know,
we don't feel God's at peace. Bro. Branham got tore up, I got tore up,
you'll get tore up, everybody's tore up, but God's at peace. (Yep)

	You don't get a whimper out of Him. You don’t get a rise out of Him
either. Do you think He got upset? How can you be the sovereign God
upset that planned everything and everything is going according to His
Own will? Can't do it. Now, we've got access to this great the favor and
the fondness of God, and rejoice in the hope of the glory of God.

 	Now, you notice that Paul brings that into Romans the glory of God.
Not only do we stand in Him complete, and God is not only angry, but
through this great sacrifice Jesus Christ the righteous, the Blood of
God we stand here with the ability to share in the very glory of God.
Just like Jesus said, "Let them share in the glory I shared with You,
glorify Thy Name, glorify Me." And God said, "I've glorified them and do
it again."

13.	Now, he says in chapter 8.

		(16) 	(God bears) witness with our spirit, that we are the children of
God:

		(17) 	And (the) children, then heirs; heirs of God, joint-heirs with
Christ; 					if so be we suffer with him, that we may be also glorified
together.

	Now, we go back. [Romans 5:] I want to explain It to you. 

		(3) 	And not only so, we glory in tribulations: knowing that
tribulation 						(works) patience; (the word is literally endurance)

	You know, you only get your muscles built up by working with them. I
made a big mistake, I didn't build all my muscles up. I got the front
muscles going good, my arms…I'd like to do pushups and that's the only
thing I know. I don't know how to do anything else, so I do pushups. But
that didn't stop these muscles here from going. So, when I twisted my
arm a couple of weeks ago the wrong way, the muscle stuck in there, you
talk about going through concrete slabs. the sweat just poured off of
me. I should have worked my muscles up. Didn't care of all my muscles.
Well, I'm glad I took care of some of them. But I tell you one thing: if
I find out which muscles to build up, (which I really should have if
I've got an ounce of brains. If I haven't gone to a good neurologist
yet) I can work on them.  But it'll cause pain, it'll take a while to
build them up, especially at my age.

	But It says here, that you know something that this process of standing
in glory of Almighty God requires suffering, and suffering is brought on
by tribulation, then trials, those things which come against us. As the
Scripture says, "Woe unto them by whom offences come." [Lk 17:1] It
never says, Woe unto them 'to' whom offences come, but 'by' whom
offences come. It says: when all these things come to pass, they pour
their wrath upon, and they spend their venom upon you, and so on.  He
says, "Rejoice, for you know that the Kingdom is at hand." 

14.	Now, with endurance comes experience. And that word is a very poor
word in the translation. It means 'character', or 'maturity'. There is
no such thing as anybody developing character outside of suffering. In
other words, character is not a gift, it's a triumph. It's a victory.
Nobody can have character outside of suffering. That's why you keep
dodging things, you will never get anywhere. If you take the easy way
you'll never get anywhere. You got to take the bit in your teeth like a
good spunky horse and then start pulling with the plow behind you, pull
the plow. If it's a donkey, be sure to get him to the line first. It's a
job.

	With that experience, then It says, "works hope." And the word 'hope'
is earnest expectation. You notice there's a process going on here. The
process is this: that God puts us through the rope of child training.
Which is as the word tells us, it's not joyful for the time being. But
it's doing something in us. And at the end time there's bound to be
sharing in the glory and the things of Almighty God.

15.	So, we know and accept the fact of pressures and trials and
persecution, tribulation. Because tribulation is not an end in itself.
Now, if God was beating us over the head just to beat us over the head,
that's ridiculous. The only reason you get beat over the head is to
pound the head and shake it, there's too many pointy heads, got to keep
hammering down. There's too many tough heads, you got to soften them up.
Now there's too many big heads it's got to shrink them down. So, He's
got to work on us, see? That's just natural. Just like you've to work on
your kids. Now, I'm not saying we've have too much success with our
kids, but I'll tell you, God never lost a battle yet.

	Now, He's working on His children. And the working on them is putting
pressure on them, so they will learn to respond to life according to the
Word of God. And this pressure will work an endurance, a quality of
strength, determination of going on with God. Then that will bring out
character. And as a person matures in character he begins to expect. In
other words, hope is earnest expectation. And something begins to grow
within the person where he knows that there is laid up ahead of him as
the apostle Paul said, "There was laid up a treasure in heaven, which
the things of this earth cannot compare to whatsoever."

16.	Now, he says also:

		(5) 	…hope maketh not ashamed; because the love of God is shed
abroad 					in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.

	Now, you notice right here, that the Holy Ghost shed abroad in your
heart, which is given unto you, is not the Holy Spirit of the end time,
where God comes down and sets Himself at the Head of the Church. No sir,
that's not. This is the baptism with the Holy Ghost. And anybody who is
truly baptized with the Holy Ghost will have to pay the price of
discipline and maturity.

	Now brother, sister if you don't do it, God will put the pressure on
you, even take you out of this world. And I get very, very much alarmed
when I look around and I see that people simply will not take the
pressure. I should just use the word 'training in life', because that's
what it really amounts to, Bro. Branham called there's a pressure coming
down, there's a squeeze coming down. And that is true, we have it. But
when people do not take that which is incumbent upon them through strive
and to struggle as a butterfly coming out the 'chrysalis', I begin to
wonder, and everybody else has the same privilege of wondering, is the
person truly full of the Holy Ghost?

	Because otherwise, it's always a shortcut it's easy way. That's why
always the people that come to the Word of God in every generation come
to a new word. And that word as the apostle said, "I'm criticized, I'm
being hunted down, they're going to kill me, because I worship God which
according to my way, according to them is heresy." [Acts 24:14]

17.	People just can't stand to come to this Message many times, because
it's going to cost them something. Well, if you're afraid of paying a
price, well that's fine by me, just stay away. Don't want you anyway.
You'd just be a nuisance and trouble. That's all. There's a price to
pay, anybody knows anything about church history and religion, knows
positively that when Luther came out, they were ready to kill him, and
they tried to kill him. And the reason that the pope couldn't kill him,
is because there was a strong German count, or duke or something took
care of him. Then the people began rallying around, and he had so much
power the pope couldn't do a thing. 

	Then the Wesleyan's came out, and the Lutherans fought them and they
couldn't do a thing. Then the Pentecostal's came out, and everybody
fought them. And the squeeze hasn't come down for you and me yet, but
just wait awhile. Oh ho, ho, brother/sister, just wait awhile. I don't
know how long, but that's just logical. (See?) 

 	Now, [Romans 5:]

		(5)	…the love of God is shed abroad in our hearts…

 	A person truly filled with the Holy Ghost will go through these
processes. 

19.	Now, at the end time the Father Himself is here. I would like to
just check out something here. I want go to Acts 7:54. 

		(54) 	When they heard these things, they were cut to the heart, (this
was 						Stephen who preached a good sermon, and boy did the knuckle 		
			down on him. But he being full of the Holy Ghost) they gnashed 					
on him with their teeth.

	They just grit their teeth, and oh, they were spitting tacks. Each one
would have loved to take and squeeze his Adam's apple until his eyes
popped out.

		(55) 	But he, being full of the Holy Ghost, looked up stedfastly into
heaven, 					and saw the glory of God, (even) Jesus standing on the
right hand of 					God,

		(56) 	And said, Behold, I see the heavens opened, and the Son of man
standing 					on the right hand of God.

	Now, you will notice very truly that the Scripture says that Jesus is
set down to the right hand of the Throne of God. And people wondering
and say, "Hey, how come then that this fellow saw Him stand up?"

	And somebody says, "Well, you see, Jesus was so interested in the first
martyr, he just had to get up and take a look over the battlement." I
don't believe that for one minute. 

20.	You know what I believe? I believe over here in Revelation 5:   

		(1) 	And I saw in the right hand of him that sat on the throne a book 
					written (with seals) on the backside, … (and every right to the 	
				book.)  

		(2) 	And a (great) strong angel…(said,) Who is worthy to open the
book, 					and to loose the seals…

		(3) 	And no man in heaven, (and no man on) earth, was able to open the
					book, (and) look thereon.

		(4) 	And I wept much, because no man (could look in the book and open 
				it.) 

		(5) 	And one of the elders (said, don't) weep (he said,) the Lion of
the tribe 					of Juda, the Root of David, hath prevailed to open the
book, and to 						loose the seven seals…

		(6) 	And…lo, in the midst of the throne and the four beasts…
(there) stood 					a Lamb… (He got up.)  

	It's a picture. What happened once, got to happen again. Now, what are
you looking at? The martyr, the squeeze. Listen, this man had the
religion of God, the truth of God in purity. This wasn't any second-hand
bunch of junk, this is what Paul said. Paul said, "I'm afraid, (he said)
you're going to change, you're going to turn from reality." He said,
"You'll take another gospel, you'll take another Jesus, you'll take
another spirit, you'll take another God, you'll take this, you'll take
that."  But this man stood there, and he became a martyr to the true
faith. The same as Paul. And we've got the picture here at the end time,
when the Seals are opened, Jesus is standing up now. What's He standing
up for? Because this time He's going to come on down. (See?)

21.	Now, let's go back to Romans [5:] again. (I just interjected that,
we'll just get going on it a little more though.) Now watch:  

		(6)	For when we were without strength, in due time Christ died for 			
		the ungodly.

	Now, what Church Age had the little strength? What church had a name
that you lived but you're dead? Number Five under Luther. (See?) That
life that had gone in the grave, (the church) was now coming up under
justification, sanctification, baptism. Now the fullness of the Holy
Spirit and the full Word. (See?) Yet if He stood up then, He'll stand up
now, because "He's the same yesterday, today and forever." [Heb 13:8]
See, we're at the end time. That's why He's standing, but He's still
efficacious. He's still the High Priest. (See?) He's still there. Now:

		(7) 	For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure a
						good man some would even dare to die.

		(8) 	But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were 			
		yet sinners, Christ died for us.

22.	 Now, I'm going back again to Revelation, (and I'll try to get this
together for you, you'll see what I've got in mind here) in chapter 3.
He said, 

		(16) 	…because (you're) lukewarm, neither hot (or) cold, (I'm going
to) 						spue (you) out of my mouth.

	You're insipid, (see?) you claim you're sophists, [philosophers] you
claim you're so wise. You're insipid. (See?) In other words, all you
talk of theology, and you study your notes and the Greek word and
everything else. You make me sick. 

		(17) 	(Now, you say, you're) rich, and increased with goods, and
(don't) 						need (a thing,) and (don't know you're) wretched,
miserable, poor, 						naked, blind.

	Now, He said:

		(18) 	I counsel thee buy of me gold tried in the fire, (that's the
trial of our 					faith) that (you may) be rich; white raiment, (you
may) be clothed, 						the shame of (your) nakedness do not appear;
anoint (your) eyes with 					eyesalve, … (Now, that sounds as though
they had it, they didn't have 					it. They had to go and get it)…that
(you may) see.

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

	The One standing up today has the same Word passed on to us through the
Holy Spirit in the Pillar of Fire, telling us though the condition of
the church is worthy to cause death. There will be no death, because He
stands. (See?) 

	Now, watch the High Priest ministry of Jesus Christ has within It and
is, was demonstrated to be applicable at this time for how could any man
stand in the Presence of God? The Scripture says, "You can't approach
unto Him." The Scripture says, "You can't see Him." [1 Tim 6:16] And how
could God come down here and not curse this earth? 

23.	Well, you want to know the answer? Let's to the Bible and check It
out. It's over here in the Book of Malachi. "Behold I send you Elijah
the prophet before the coming of the great and dreadful day of the
Lord." [Mal 3:1] "And He'll turn the hearts of the father's to the
children, the children to the fathers, lest I come and smite the earth
with a curse." [Mal 4:6] (See?)

	He tells you, " the day coming is going to burn like an oven." [Mal
4:1] What is going to stop it? (See?) The servant is the prophet, for
what's behind the prophet that which nobody can see? Nobody can approach
unto. Then how could God come down here? And listen, believe me, if that
Rock is not down here made without hands, the Capstone is not here I'm
misreading and misrepresent everything that this vindicated prophet
stood for, and I don't even know in my Bible. But He's got to be here.
There's only one thing that will stop the Presence of Almighty God,
destroying anybody is that Blood of Jesus Christ and the righteous One
standing up there,  right now. He's not seating at the right hand of
Majesty anymore. He's standing, because that One came down here and
stood, and is standing here tonight. (See?)

24.	Now, in the very face of this where righteousness is on the shelf
and sin is abounding, and man has completely perverted himself, there's
a judgment right around the corner. And God said in His Own Word, "I
just wipe the whole thing out." Like He said to Moses, He said, "Step
aside, I'll wipe the whole thing and I'll make one out of you." 

	Moses said, "No Sir, you've got to take me too." And I'm going to tell
you something, they'd have to take Jesus Christ, to get rid of His
Bride. Can't be done, see? So therefore, He is standing here while the
God of host, the God of glory, the Creator stands right here at the Head
of the Church in order to raise the dead. Getting a Bride ready to
present to Himself without spot, without wrinkle. See, with all this sin
and degradation going on. God is not any less at peace with us, right
down here today. No sir, He's absolutely at peace, everything is working
right on schedule. Everything is working right on time, and the only
reason we get all fussed up like I told you about myself getting so
fussed up, and so distraught I just wish I'd pull the pin and forget the
whole thing.

25.	You begin getting… to take a look at the Word of God and see the
sovereignty of God, see what He has done, and what He is doing, you can
begin to have hope and faith. And that's what I was thinking a while
ago, (before we were singing a song here) and I said, "Oh, my heavens
here we are, just to what the prophet said, 'All the time looking back,
all the time looking forward, and not even looking what's going on'." 
What's going on? He is standing in our midst. 

	The Father with His children. The Father with His family. I understood
that many years ago now when I read the Book of Daniel, and I knew there
had to be a time when the Saints were right here on earth; and they
owned the whole thing, and everything was a stinking mess. And that's
right. The dead are going to be raised, and we're going to be standing
here changed, and we'll own the whole thing, but it's a stinking mess.

	We could be caught up and taken away for three and a half years, God
will purify the earth and bring His Bride back. That's the Book of
Daniel brother/sister, I to  till this last hour how it was done by. I
see it's perfectly now it's all in the Scripture.

26.	Now, [Romans 8:] 

		(8) 	…God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were 				
	yet sinners, Christ died for us.

	And God commended His love in this wicked generation right now. The
commendation was so great in Jesus Christ, He could say, "Step aside,
I'm just going to come down Myself and take care of it." How could God
have done that without the righteous Blood of Jesus Christ, you tell me?
How could man approach to the Throne of Almighty God?

27.	Let's go over here to Hebrews 10:19,  

		(19) 	Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest
(holies)…

	Now, that sounds very good, and I like that. But notice the previous
verses. He said, 		

		(8)	…Sacrifice and offering and burnt offerings for sin (and you
would) 					not, neither (had) pleasure (in them,) which were offered by
the law;

	Sure, offered by the law. And yet you know that types enough ahead till
Jesus Christ came to take care of him?  

		(9) 	Then said he, Lo, I come to do thy will, O God. He taketh away
the 					first, that he may establish the second.

		(10) 	By the which will we are sanctified through the offering of the
body 					of Jesus Christ once for all.

		(11) 	And every priest (standing) daily… (and so on.)  

	And here's Jesus Christ that sat down, from henceforth expecting till
His enemies made His footstool. He sat down, but He's risen. Now, if you
followed me in all the four sermons that I've preached, you know just
where I'm going to go. First Corinthians 15: if you couldn't have figure
that one out, you should go over the tapes again. Because I'm not
kidding, not because I preach those, forget it. 

28.	You know one reason why I don't like coming here? You all guys want
me to preach. I'd just sooner stay home and go someplace else, now I
preach. I don't like to preach.

		(20) 	But now is Christ risen from the dead, and become the
first-fruits 						of them that slept.

		(21) 	For since by man came death, by man came also the resurrection 	
				of the dead.

		(22) 	For as in Adam all die, even so in Christ shall all be made
alive.

		(23) 	But every man in his own order: Christ the first-fruits; (and)
afterward					…Christ's at his (Presence.)

	Christ standing up now, because God has come down to do what? 

		(24) 	Then (comes) the end, when he shall have delivered up the
kingdom 					to God, even the Father; (now, that's an interpolation,
looking way 						down the line to New Jerusalem) when he shall have put
down all 						rule and all authority and power.

		(25) 	For he must reign, till he hath put all enemies under his feet.

		(26) 	The last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.

	Now, whose feet are they going to come under? Jesus' feet. Now, Who's
doing it? God is doing it.

		(27) 	For he hath put all things under (him, God had put all things
under 						Jesus') feet. 

	Now, how is He doing it? The One, God Himself came down with His feet
on this ground getting it ready to turn over to the Son. (See?) 

29.	 Now, when He said, "All things are put under…It is manifested,
that God has left out, which is put all things under Jesus. And when all
things shall be put in order under Jesus, then shall Jesus Himself put
under order unto God Who put all things under Jesus that God may be All
in all.

	Now, God is doing that now, that's why the Son is risen, and He's
waiting to take over. He hasn't lost any power, the Blood meaning power
of the intermediary-ship, or the intercessory, the power of Almighty God
that’s invested in Jesus. No, it's all Jesus just standing. His
standing is symbolic, it's going on now! Putting under His feet! And
there's a Bride coming in order. (See?)

	I don't want to be fussing like Bro. Branham with the women, but I'm
going to tell you Bro. Branham didn't fuss at women, he was trying to
show all these years that I'm trying to show now, after fourteen years
he's gone. There's a type here. There's something going on here. Women
don't respond. They just go [makes a noise] sit there. Like the prophet,
he came and he said, "Every year I tell you, don't cut your hair, and
don't wear you skirts this way, and don't wear slacks. And every year
you're worse, and you say, "ha, ha, ha ha." A big joke. BIG JOKE when
God was standing there! It's going to be a big joke for some women too.
Oh, you women, you've been fooled all these years. If you've got the
Spirit of God, because you're fit for child bearing. How in the name of
common sense that you bear children, when you get pregnant you submit
yourself to man. Just as soon as you baby's delivered you'll snip it
yourself to get pregnant again, get hemorrhoids all descended, varicose
veins and everything else. That's not God! That's the nature you got. 

30.	 You men, you think you're the head of the house you got dominate,
that's a brassy bully spirit, it's not the Spirit of God. Preach it
Vayle, and take some yourself. I'm trying to, thank you Jesus. I'm not
kidding. You look a little puzzled. You ought to know me by now, you've
heard me preach long enough. I talk fast, I talk hard, but you can read
between the lines. And I'm not leaving any lines to be read between, and
I'm hitting you hard tonight, straight in a line. 

	He stood up, the Seals are open. And the Father said, "I'm ranking
everything right now, so you can take over. We're in the takeover period
brother/sister. That's what had me fooled a little while ago. I thought,
well, we're in the Resurrection, we're coming in, we're here and there.
And God began showing me. You don’t start showing me now in the Word,
never mind what's in the stars, don't mind what's out here in nature. If
somebody goes to a refrigerator like a Pentecostal goof-off, opens the
door there's no light. "Well, that's a sign.”  Then somebody else
opens the washing machine (there's supposed to be a light there) the
light goes on, or something, "Well, that's symbolic."  Hogwash! Stars,
pyramid junk, let's get that straight. It's the Word! William Branham
never came here a little light in their refrigerator or washing machine
and pyramids and stars and all that junk. What is, some kind of
goof-off?  Word.

	He said, "That spirit will come into the church, you'll know what's
going on." I don't claim that spirit of God, maybe I have though in
spite of myself, because it's not in the person, it's in God. But I
believe I know what I'm talking about.

31.	I'll tell you what's going on, He's ranking right now. God, Holy
Ghost is ranking everything. Putting women under the men, and putting
men under Christ. Putting church and a Bride together this crucial hour.
You see?  Getting her ready, ranking her.

	He said, [1 Corinthians 15:]

		(28) 	… God may be all in all. (And God will be All and in all.)

	You can't hasten the day you know? This is what kind of…I don't know,
just bugs me I guess, burns me up and bugs me. Call it anything you
want. But these preachers come on the scene and they say, "Follow me,
listen to me, I've got a great revelation."   Have pity. That's not
putting the church and Bride under Jesus, that's putting under some man.
That's the papal doctrine. That's hierarchy, that's Catholicism. That's
the devil. My God, have pity, I'm under God enough that I could have you
under me. Whooo brother, if I was really under God and I could really
help you, that would be a different story. But I'm trying to get both of
us under God. Certainly, that's the whole thing. 

33.	God is now bringing His Church under the authority of Jesus Christ
the Word. So that, that Word will come forth in her. And now the big
thing is back to manifested sons again, the very think I warned you. I
preached wrong, because I couldn't get chronology just right. Quote the
prophet left and right, up and down. Got two sermons on it. Never went
off His Word one little bit, but I knew I was wrong. Something in my
heart told me, I wasn't …?... with the prophet, because I didn't have
his understanding. But I'm getting it now, I can understand, what it is
to have the Word and know what to do with It. And it's a sweet simple
blessed experience, it's not some great big super-duper thing they're
looking for it.

	Let me tell you something brother/sister, a lot of us came out of
Pentecost, and g oing right back to it too. Not me. Oh, no, no, no.

	Now listen, [Romans 5:]

		(6) 	For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died
for 						the ungodly.

		(7) 	For scarcely for a righteous man will one die: yet peradventure
for 						a good man some(body) dare to die.

34.  Now, you've got 'goodism' to the highest degree right now. That old
antichrist is such a sweet old boy, he'll just take everybody in.
Everybody talks, "love, love, love, sweet, sweet, sweet, love, love,
love this." Don't you…I keep on preaching, and I preach twenty more
years, I don't think people are going to believe me. Eve was not raped,
she was seduced. He never came with a great big club and knock her on
the head. He said, "Hey, honey, you know I think you're a real sweet
child of God. You're just a beautiful creation, but I got a little bit
of a puzzlement here, did God say some certain things about you not
doing some certain thing?"

	"Oh, (she said) He certainly did."

	"Well, (he said) such a lovely child of Eden."

	He took her right down the primrose path. You know what? She's glad to
enter into the act. She came so happy and told Adam all about it. And
you know, Adam did just what God said he was going to do, he left God
for her.  He said, "For this cause, a man leaves father and mother."
[Eph 5:31] And he did. God was his Father and Mother, so he left God for
her. (See?) This old sweet business you know, "We'll take you through
see, even amongst us you follow me, you follow Joe Coleman. You follow
Pearry Greene, you follow Jackson, and you follow Cyril, you follow Lee
Vayle, you follow this guy you'll make it."

	Let me tell you flat, you'll go to hell. That's what you'll do, you'll
go to hell with the guy that you follow. There's always going to be
somebody a good guy. We don't need good guys, Jesus died. The Blood of
God, let's face it, He's our Blood of God. (Yep) 

35.	Now: [Romans 5:]

		(8) 	But God (commends) his love toward us, in that, while we were 			
		sinners, Christ died for us.

	Now, we can look back on that, but I'm looking at It tonight in the
fact of the Presence of God in judgment. For He has come down as He said
before Egypt, "I've come down before the cry of the people, sighing and
crying for sin, because it just made everybody undone the effect of
sin." God have mercy the effect of sin.

	Man goes out here, splits the atom, then he begins dissecting within
the nature and constitution of what God placed there in the original,
and he brings out DDT. As far as I know I think DDT was the first
rearrangement. Is that, right? And we've been going to hell ever since
physically in this world and dying.

	Why little kids, they can't study anymore, they're hyperactive; they're
cursed. Why? Because of sin. (See?) What a mess we're in. Tragic
situation. Everything cursed and God down here hearing the cry of the
people, seeing the wickedness of Sodom and Gomorrah, standing there,
don't tell me He didn't, because He was a Moses in the burning bush, and
He went right down to Egypt with him. He stood there with Abraham
clothed in the flesh of a man. He went right down there and saw the
rottenness of Sodom, sent two angels ahead of Him. Stood there and Sarah
laughing about the promise of God. 

36.	"That's okay," He said, "I make provisions."

	Abraham said, "Lord, (he said) You wouldn't destroy that for the sake
to fifty righteous?"

	He said, "Abraham, you don't even know Me." He said, "I wouldn't
destroy it for ten." But there weren't even ten there. He said, "I'd
never destroy the righteous." What was standing there, brother/sister?
The blood of an animal waiting for the One to come. What's standing
there tonight? The very One that saved us, standing right there where
God comes down. (See?) 

	No wonder the wrath of God goes by. No wonder there's a peace of God.
Maybe you and I don't feel it, you don't have too, that's His. Just like
people get all caught up under Bro. Branham's vision on the tent and
all. That was his vision, not mine. Let him take care of it. It's nice
to understand what's a peace from God and the peace of God. For what’s
peace with God? Tonight, it's peace with God, because Jesus stands
there. Getting everything lined up, He can just step in and take over.
See, we're at the end time brother/sister. Yes sir.

37.	Now, look it, if He can come right down here and not one of us get
destroyed, there's not one going to miss It.  Because, if God can stand
right there and see what He saw, have that prophet stand before
everybody; knowing that he read every heart in that building, and no man
could hide. Not fifty thousand, not a million, not one could hide. Try
all you want, you didn't have a prayer once he hit that trance. I was
with him too many times to ever take my words back. Let me tell you
flat, I know what I'm talking about.

	You made one little miscalculation he'd go into a trance and nailed you
down right now. What was that? The Spirit of Almighty God working
through a man. The One standing there, said, "I was just a voice,
because of that One standing there."

	Now listen, that same One stood there, He saw preachers in adultery.
And the one thing that the prophet always saw in any man, did he have
any other woman before or after his marriage? Never once did he ever
fail to pick it up. And you may get a startle, till 1958 I'm the only
preacher that Bro. Branham met that didn't have an extra woman either
before or after marriage.

38.	 You say, "Bro. Vayle, is that the great sin, do people go to hell?"
Not for adultery, not for a million cases of adultery, but what it
typifies, spiritual adultery. Whoring with the world and off the Word
for they claim to be the righteous Bride of Jesus Christ. And here's
your rotten stinking mess. Just like God said to the Israel, He said,
"You sat in the highway with every Arabian. You've lifted you skirts and
spread your feet for every hound dog that came along, every filth of
unrighteousness. So, has the church done it. Those in the church have
done it too.

	You tell me you had a pure doctrine before you came to what the Word
really said? You say, "God doesn't mind." Thank you, you just fell for
the old devil. "Eve baby, God doesn't mind, you surely won't die baby."
Will you? I keep on telling you, I'll preach twenty more years, and
you'll still believe…God you still won't. Now, what's the use? 

	"But God commended His love." The commended love of God tonight, He
could come down, because of Jesus and the Blood. Stand in the filth and
rottenness of Egypt and Sodom and Gomorrah and see a church that left
Him, and said, "I'm going to bring you back." Now, I don't have much
love, my wife will tell you that flat. If she ever got into adultery, I
don't know what I would have done now.  I told her, I said, "I'm not
jealous if I ever catch a man, just kill the both you, be no problem."
Now, I'm not a virtuous person, get this flat. I've said it, I'll say it
again, if you're less truth you're a liar, that's honest true crook.
That sounds like a joke, but it's no joke, it's the truth, because I
know my heart. I know when I'm right, but I don’t know what he said. 
God did. God did, stood right there.

39.  Turned His eye on us as it were. Turned His back on it. See, "Who
dares arraign me God's court?" God Himself can't do it, because the
evidence is gone. There's one thing that God cannot do, He cannot
remember sin. " God commended His love toward us," tonight
brother/sister. 

	[Romans 5:] 

 		(9) 	Much more then, being now justified (declared righteous) by his 
					blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.

	The Author of wrath. I took you back there, (didn't I take it?) sure
took you right back there.

	[Romans 1:]

		(18 )	For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all
ungodliness 					and unrighteousness of men, who hold the truth in
unrighteousness; 

	That is tribulation, retributed wrath that took place at the flood,
will now take place again, not by water, but by fire. Saved from wrath
tonight. If we're enemies, we're reconciled. 

40.  Listen, [Romans 5:]

		(10) 	For if, when we were enemies, we were reconciled to God by the 	
				death of his Son, much more, being reconciled, we shall be saved 			
		by his life.

	And people come along and try to say, "That man in now reconciled to
God through the Blood of Jesus Christ." That's a lie from the pit of
hell, It's God that reconciled. It's God that said, "I can look at what
he's done, I can take what he's done. I've had my pedigree read." I
don't know if I could take it or not. I found just a few thoughts, I
knew it was coming, I warned you. I know what the pulpit thinks, I know
It, and my kids know It. I told my wife I said, "I think I know what you
think." Maybe I don't, I wish I knew what God thought. Let me tell you
something: the Word tell us. [taps the Bible]

	You and I can be repudiated, He was repudiated. They lift Him up
between heaven and earth, the earth didn't want Him, and heaven couldn't
take Him. The sun turned to darkness. Earthquakes begin to break forth,
time was dark deep tragedy. But I'm going to tell you something brother/
sister, it was at that time that the Voice of God that screamed out in
Jesus Christ, and the dead heard It, and ready to come forth.  

41.	Hebrews 12: I'm not Cassandra preaching doom brother/sister. I'm a
rough preacher, but I want to preach hope tonight.

		(25) 	See that (you) refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped
not 					who refused him that (spoke) on earth, much more shall not we 	
				escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven:

		(26) 	Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised,
saying, 					Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven.

		(27) 	And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those
things 					that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those
things which 						cannot be shaken may remain.

	Now, what's going to remain when it's all shook down the Word of God?

		(28) 	Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us 	
				have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence 					
and godly fear.

		(29) 	For our God is a consuming fire.

	And right down here at this moment the Consuming Fire of God is here
with a Bride who will serve Him acceptably. That's why Bro. Branham
said, serving trying to please God, or do Him a service outside of His
will. But he said, "There's a Bride at the end time who has the Word and
knows what to do with It, or she shuts up and she sits there."

	You say, "Bro. Vayle, I'm frustrated." So am I, worse than you are. You
say, "I've got a lot of doubts." Don't worry, the apostle Paul after
fourteen years of screaming, "I was there with the Pillar of Fire, He
taught me, I know the doctrine."  He said, "Hey, better go and check
up."

	John the Baptist, "That's the One, that's the One, that's the one." A
year and a half later he said, "Hey, were You the One?" God's not going
to kill you and throw you away. (Hmm) Impossible. God loves us. 

42.	Proved that love, just like when He came down on Calvary. Same One
came down, stood right here. Stands right here tonight, He's not gone.
In '57 Bro. Branham said, "He's been here for several years." He came
down June 11, 1933, if you want to know the date. No man knew the hour
or the day. William Branham didn't know. People stood there and saw It,
and didn't know. A crowd of three thousand, thousands heard Him and
didn't know. Photographs taken, didn't know. The Word told us what It
was. Now, once more He Speaks from Heaven. Once more Jesus is bringing a
Message, but this time It is not God in human flesh that came down
incarnated, It was God, Holy Ghost veiled in a Pillar of Fire, came down
used the prophet and said, "I'm bringing one more Message from Jesus, He
loves you."

	Stands right there now waiting to take over. "And I'm bringing
everything under control." Even you people down here that you know
you're so miserable, you're so disgruntled, you're so out of shape, and
so disproportion with the Word of Almighty God. "I got news for you, I'm
going to bring you right into subjection and you're going to be that
living Word down here amongst the people."

43.	Oh yeah, they're going to hate you. But he said, "There's one thing
I want to tell you brother/ sister," (Bro. Branham said so truthfully,
"When Jesus said, 'I and My Father are one'." The Scribes and the
Pharisees all turned on Him. And he said, "When the Bride says, 'I and
my Father are one', the squeeze comes down."  That's why they haven’t
been able to say, "I and my Father are one." He's here tonight.

	That's why many of these people who believe this Bride Message don't
even know what I'm talking about tonight. But they'll know. They'll
know. I didn't know till fourteen years exactly after the Seals were
broken what It was. They'll know, don't worry, they'll say, "I and my
Father are one." And the Vertical of the Holy Ghost, the individual
become the horizontal. And Jesus said, "When they are one, even as You
and I are one, they'll be (He said) the world will know that Thou has
sent Me."

	Brother/sister, I want to tell you something: when that Bride becomes
one, they'll know God's here don't worry. Then God will be in the midst
of her, that's what the Scripture says. And He'll vindicate her right
quickly. Yes sir. And we will be serving Him acceptably with a godly
fear for the Consuming Fire even in the midst of the people. Let's rise.

	Heavenly Father, the prophet said just turn to that Bible anyplace and
you'll see the Message, you see the adaptation, you'll see the
relevancy. And you look at yourself and you look around and it makes you
know that you've got to look back to where God is. God will see Him
unveiled in that Word. Got to see Him in His Present living moment, see
Jesus risen in the midst of the Throne. Maybe we think we're anxious,
maybe He's a whole lot more anxious, because He's a man too, wanting to
take His rightful position.

	How long Lord Jesus, how long? We don't know, we don’t need to know.
If we only keep looking at what's here, if we only keep seeing Him Who
is invisible. And He's not so invisible either, well we've seen Him
clothed in the flesh of the Word. We know in Whom we have believed, like
John we turn to see the Voice, we've seen the Voice. The conversing
Voice, God Speaking back in ever clearer tone revealing Himself.

	Lord, no wonder Your Word said wickedness abound and iniquity in, let
the pressure come. Rejoice for it's getting all the closer. Lord, I
don't see Abraham going through any blue funk.  Sure, Lot did. He wasn't
in the Election. But Abraham calm, talking back and forth with You
conversing, knowing that he was righteous in Your Presence, because of
the Blood, because of the Seed, because of the promise, because of the
Word. You standing there, and here's a little group the prophet
identified as Abraham standing, God standing there. We can converse, we
can be a part of the life of this day to see the son brought forth as
Sarah and Abraham were changed.

	There's a lot of diffidence, there's a lot of doubt, and a lot of
problems, but didn't change You, because Abraham was accepted, and in
him was Sarah, Lord. We know tonight that You can stand right here as
we've been accepted in the One that's standing right there waiting for
the last final moments where He Himself can step down. Who once more
become that incarnation and take unto Himself presenting to Himself a
Bride without spot and without wrinkle, perfectly placed in rank and now
waiting for the ultimate within a thousand years to turn it all back to
the Father that God might be All in all. Lord, I know that's going on
tonight. I know that's part of the program, part of the Divine substance
of this hour. And I pray, Lord God, you know, Lord, my prayers are about
as weak as dishwater, Lord, but You can help me tonight, everybody here
to lift our eyes of faith that in this moment on to begin to put aside
those things that are blinders of the devil. 

	And these things, Lord, which rise up to cast doubts upon the
authenticity of that which is amongst us tonight. God help us, let that
Blood and the power of the Holy Ghost because of the Blood come down
tonight, Lord. And begin to tear away as never before the veil that's
upon the minds and the hearts. So that there cannot only be the beauty
of the sight of revelation, but the imperviousness too, that which would
come against us as not being worth reckoned. For You have said tonight,
He said to Abraham, "the righteous will not perish with the wicked," for
I have come down to set in the Seals by My promise, My Word of this
hour.

	Lord, that's what the prophet taught us and we've always wanted
something else as much as we parroted, don't look back, and don't look
forward, look what's going on. We just haven't been true. We've been a
little hypocritical, a little bit lax, dilatory, undone as it were.
Maybe nauseous even.  Forgive us tonight, O God. I know You have,
because of the Blood. I know You can stand right here tonight, and
there's no wrath, there's no anger. Nothing, just the calm, quiet
directing us as You did the prophet that night in Toledo as a circle of
Blood the Lord Jesus Christ.

	So, Father God, we pray that we might be more submissive, more one with
You than ever before. That the world may know as we come one with You,
more one with each other, the vertical and the horizontal one. They'll
know that You surely have come down, and You are the Head of the Church
raising the dead. Now, unto the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the
only wise God be all power and honor and glory through Jesus Christ our
Lord. Amen.

	The Lord bless you, let's sing a little song, 'Oh how I love Jesus'.
