Various Subjects # 2

Bro. Lee Vayle

 September 27, 1998

	Shall we pray.  Heavenly Father, we’re grateful to be gathered
together in Your Name, hearing Your Presence, knowing that somewhere
Lord, You are that same One that came down and indwelt Bro. Branham, and
also the One that hovered the meetings, the One also taken by the
camera.  We thank You for that, knowing therefore that we are in Your
Presence, ready for the Exodus, we ought to be very humble and sincere,
and we ought to give You glory, Lord, as never before, and we pray that
that might be so.  Knowing Lord, that even a glass of water given in
Your Name, a visit to prisons, to visit the sick or whatever we do Lord,
it does not go unaware before You.  How much more then Lord, if we put
forth Your Word, wherein is eternal life, which brings forth a children
unto You Lord, in a mature form.  That is what really counts today,
Father.  We know the others count, but this is what truly counts.  May
Your Word, therefore, be full of life, that the people may mature in
Your Presence, Lord, and be ready for that great Rapture and the
Resurrection.  In Jesus’ Name, we pray.  Amen.  You may be seated.

	Now, I was just thinking this morning that due to the fact that this,
my ministry, the Word through tapes goes to many parts of the world, it
makes us all one very bonded family, very bonded together in Christ by
the same revelation of the Word, which we have together.  And of course,
this makes us, as Bro. Branham said the truth, that how we ought to love
each other, and I believe there is definitely a love amongst us, not
only as we come together, but as we fellowship around that Word.  

And I thinking this morning, that I’d like to present a name for all
those who get the tapes, and that is Bro. Wes Richardson has been
suffering for, I guess over two years now, with a stroke that felled him
and has made him increasingly uncomfortable, and is in a rest home, and
you understand that many rest homes are anything but conducive to good
health, to comfort of any description.  And he is at this time in really
dire straights.  Also that makes it very difficult for his wife Gladys,
who must do many, many things for him that no one else does, and
frankly, I am not amazed at the grace of God, because God is so full of
grace and love, but I’m actually amazed that she’s been able to
stand up, and how she is standing up.  So in their behalf, I’d
certainly request all those who hear this tape this morning, to keep him
in mind, and Gladys in mind.  

And there may be others also that we should bring to your attention at
times, because as I say, we’re not just a local family here, we’re a
family that worship the same God, eat the same food, live in the same
body, body of Christ, and by grace we believe we’re a part of that
Bride.

	So, I thank you for that, and also the fact of the matter is that…
I’m not, you know, able to project the future, and I certainly know
the present though, and the present is not too, what you might call
delightful at this particular time.  Once in a while I get what’s kind
of a dizzy spell, if I turn my head or I suddenly make a move, and
usually I can get that knocked out by a chiropractor, but at this time I
am not getting a result.  So I go in tomorrow for an X-ray, possibly an
MRI to see what it is, and I got an idea that it’s really nothing but
an extension of what I have had at times, and so that cuts down a great
deal on my ability to do too much.  It may be connected with my eyes a
bit, I don’t know.  It’s not with the hearing; that was checked out.
 And I’m getting kind of tired of these doctors who keep saying, when
you get a check, they say, “Oh my, there’s a lot of young people
don’t even do as well as you do.”  Well, I’m very tired of that. 
I’m wondering if they’re not trying to hype me, until one doctor
someday says, “Hey, you may be eighty-four, but I tell you, you’re
just about thirty-seven years old, and you ought to be out there on a
Harley-Davidson, and having a great time with a black jacket, and I’ve
got just a bike for you for seventy-five thousand dollars.”  Try to
sell me something.  I think it’s a lot of hype.  So anyway, so I got a
fifty-five year old body here, with a hundred and fifty year old man,
and it’s not working out too good – not working out too good. 

	So all right, now this morning we’re going to deal with various
items, some of which will be hopefully answering some questions, for the
questions that come in from the outside, and just for a little while I
want to continue with what I said last time concerning President
Clinton.  Now, I actually have the quote, or I did have it here written
down, where I mentioned that when he had his… I think it was in 1992,
the inaugural service that he quoted from Galatians 6:

(7)	Be not deceived; God is not mocked:  whatsoever a man soweth,       
               that shall he also reap.

	Now, this man of course is a hypocrite from the word go.  He is
absolutely definitely not of God.  Everything he talks about God makes
him an antichrist, and he leads America, which you know will eventually
produce a pope, which I believe will be the antichrist, but I’m not
positive on that.  Because Bro. Branham said in 1954, I think it was,
somewhere in there, that the pope must come out of America according to
prophesy.  Now, there’s no prophesy in my understanding anywhere, that
Bro. Branham literally prophesied that.  That is as far as that I am
concerned, which I am not positive, but I do believe, is Revelation 13. 
America building the head of the harlot system.  

	So, here’s what the Bible says in the verse that I knew was in the
Bible, but I couldn’t put my hand on, because it was too late to get a
concordance.  Ps 50:16.  Now Lloyd found this and so did Jan White.  

But unto the wicked God saith, What hast thou to do to declare          
          my statutes, or that thou shouldest take my covenant in thy   
                 mouth?

The wicked have no place with the Word of God.  There is only one thing
the Word of God can do for the wicked – two things, they’re
opposites.  One is to condemn to dysfunctional life, and later
annihilation; or to awaken them to eternal life.  And there’s no
middle road.  That’s what you’re looking at.  And he very cleverly
took his position so that people would believe that he is a leader of
morals, righteousness and religion.  

Now let’s see where he is today.  You recall that I said that I was
absolutely surprised that Michener, in writing about South Africa, used
the phrase which I am paraphrasing, but I’m accurate in what he said,
that when language loses its meaning, that nation is gone.  Now, the
Bible says, “Righteousness exalteth a nation, but sin is a reproach to
any people.”  

	Now, the first person who destroyed the meaning of language, was the
devil.  He said, “It doesn’t mean that.  It does not mean that.”  

Now, Mr. Clinton, in his deposition, and then in his appearance before
the grand jury, via remote control, he distorted two words entirely. 
One of which is ‘is’, and the other ‘alone’.  Until it boils
down to the place where he said, “I was never alone with Miss
Lewinsky.”  That is true, he never was, there’s five and half
billion others of us out here!  

	Now, the devil was the one that destroyed the meaning of language. 
That’s why I am so precise, and that’s why God sent William Branham,
so you would not have any problem with language, because language is
what makes us!  We’re different from animals, we’re different from
everything, we have a language!  Even God is languageified.  That’s a
nice word I just made up.  I never could stand words like
‘prioritize’ because they’re not even in the dictionary.  You take
a noun and turn it into a verb, and you know… But my language is very,
very good, because mine is godly and in the Holy Ghost.  For the
scripture says, “The only begotten hath declared Him,” which is to
bring into focus and lead forth by words.  And if God did not use words,
we would know nothing.  You can’t without words.  

	So when Mr. Clinton, deliberately as a leader of this nation, the
commander-in-chief, deliberately used words in a way, which they cannot
be used, except in legalese, not lawful now, legal.  Right Bro. Evans? 
Legalese, not lawfulese.  And the people are going for it.  In
distorting this language he is now taking the place of Satan.  The head
of this great nation of ours.  So there’s nothing left.  And since
many people have already said that the Southern Baptists will soon
become Roman Catholic, I would suggest the Catholics could do no better
than asking Mr. Clinton to leave his wife and child, and become a
cardinal, and then a pope.  He’d be ideal.  Except even the Catholics
won’t have him.  And we’ll find out as I read a little bit to you
here, and I won’t read the whole thing.

	So here’s the position of America, why I want to bring it to your
attention.  We have gone the limit.  Words no longer mean what they say.
 You can use legalese any way you want to use it, and you’re fine.  So
therefore, perjury is not perjury.  There’s no defenses left.  This is
come about by the very fact that the American system based upon the
English, based upon Blackstone, based upon Rome, you are not allowed to
be engaged in double jeopardy, and always the law was based upon
precedents.  Today there is no precedents.  Every single case now is
retried.  In the light of the present situation and what people want to
do with it.  You follow me?  So where have we gone?  We’re finished! 
There is no lawful description anymore within the human race.  And if
you think I’m exaggerating, then you listen to all the various heads
of states outside of America, and they laugh at us putting any emphasis
on the president perjuring self, when anyone would perjure himself over
adultery.  So perjury’s no longer perjury.  It’s lost its meaning.  

	The whole Word of God has been subjected to it, until there is no
meaning here in this Book.  And there’s only one Person had the right
to reveal, and that’s God, and who did He chose?  And to whom did He
give it?

	So we have become a separated people as never before in history.  You
think separation was stringent, and it looks to be, in the first six
ages, you have not listened to Bro. Branham.  Because this is the only
age that is described as perilous!  The only age where the two spirits
are razor blade close.  Because most people forget there’s only one
true Spirit, and that’s the Spirit of the living God, all other
spirits are created, and the created being spirit has only one reference
and power outlet to him, and that’s the power of God, and the Word of
God, which has become perverted, so the meaning is no longer there.  If
the meaning is no longer there, then the object is not defined!  Right? 
Then if you have no definition, where are you?  Every man right in his
own eyes.  And it’s all over.  Bro. Branham said, “Does America
?chawed? its wad?” in 1956.  What year is this today?  1998.  Six
times seven.  Forty-two.  Six times seven’s the number of man. 
There’s only one thing left, and that is going on with God.

	Now let me show you where Clinton stands with women.  And women started
this, and I’m not against my sisters, it was that which was ordained. 
Bro. Branham thoroughly explained, you can take it or leave it, that it
was unbecoming to God for the son of God to fall, so the woman was made
outside the creation, though part of him, and joint heirs with him, unto
the specific edict of Almighty God.  So there’s nothing more you can
say except what he said, and take it.

	So the feminists were finally approached, because they were saying
nothing.  And here’s what they said: “We are witnessing a relentless
campaign, both inside and outside the government, to hound President
Clinton from office.  More than a dozen women’s rights advocates wrote
in a statement intended to activate women on Clinton’s behalf. 
‘This is de-establishing for our country and our democracy.’”  

So they’re saying, “I agree that he can lie, I agree he can do what
he want, he can defile us women, he’s nothing but a chauvinistic
pig,” that’s right, that’s their own terminology, though they
won’t admit it, and yet being that, they say, “he’s a fine
gentleman, a scholar, and we don’t mind what he really does, because
in the long end, he is going to benefit us.”  I don’t believe that
for fifteen seconds.  He’s a rotten apple in the barrel.  

“If we allow this process to continue, so women in particular will be
buried in the muck for generations to come.”  The executive director
of the Now Legal Defense Education Fund said that.

Now, they said, “Where are the women?”  

And so these leaders spoke up and said, “The answer said they one by
one were steadfastly on the side of the President who stood with them on
such issues as abortion.”

Let me now take you to Lamentations 2.  And let me suggest to you
something within this verse that is not obvious, and yet I contend that
it is, when you read very carefully what is written therein, especially
when all scripture has a two-fold meaning, an application.  One is
physical, and one is spiritual at least.  And here’s what it said:

Behold, O Lord, and consider to whom thou hast done this.  

Now God did not do anything that even this prophet is saying, or
Jeremiah is saying.  It is the Word of God standing there, that must be
obeyed, or dire consequences come, and therefore this can only be
attributed to God on the grounds that God created all these things, and
maintains them by the Word of creation, and you get outside of that
Word, you’ve got trouble!  So you can put the blame on God indirectly,
as Bro. Branham said, when Eve said, “I’ve gotten me a man from the
Lord,” that’s surely…  A harlot bringing forth a child by adultery
can say the same thing, because that child is born of a law of God. 
Right?  Well, that’s what he said.  Now, 

(20)	…Shall the women eat their fruit, (that’s their babies, even)  
                      children of a span long? shall the priest and the
prophet be slain                        in the sanctuary of the Lord?

	Now those are going to go together.  Now, I want to ask you a question.
 Does anybody know what a span is?  It’s nine inches.  Then that’s a
fetus.  You’re not just talking about the description here of women
who are bearing children, that we saw in the Old Testament, a time of
dire necessity.  The women said, “All right, I’ll roast my baby
today, and you roast yours down the road.”  And so when it came time
for the woman to roast her baby down the road, she wouldn’t do it. 
But she’d eaten of the woman’s baby that had roasted the baby.  And
they went to the king.  And the king rent his garments and therein was
sackcloth upon his body, because it was so terrible.  

But when you’re talking of nine inches, you’re talking of a fetus! 
So women will be very happy to abort.  They’ll be happy to be paid
large sums of money to have a fetus in good shape, to get the organs and
the injections and those things that come from those cells, because it
can be done.  

So therefore eating doesn’t necessarily mean eating, physically,
although it will be involved.  It can be like the Garden of Eden, the
very spiritual meeting.  And that is they’re literally eating it up in
the sense, that though not taking it into their bodies, they’re
disposing of it.  To me this is a clear cut of abortion.  And those
other things that are taking place in this hour.  

“Abortion ranks number one.  Rights, family leave, violence against
women, pay equity, minimum wage, social security, and child-care.”  

But you notice, every single one of those is subsequent and tails the
original, which is abortion, and you can’t have abortion unless
there’s a pregnancy, and pregnancy requires sexual intercourse!  So
the women have gone from whoredom to whoredom.  

And now they want to be justified by the president saying, “Yes it is
okay.  Even the third semester, even when the baby’s coming from the
womb, spike its head in and kill it.  Cave the cranium.  Let the blood
flow, it’s okay, because the baby hasn’t cried yet.”  Or taken air
in his lungs, which Mr. Pastor Clinton, with his satanic theologian, the
Baptist – God what a mess they are.  Shake my hand; you got eternal
life.  

Organization had been told there is no life until the child is
breathing.  And people think Bro. Branham said that.  He did not say
that.  He only told you the spirit entered at that time into a vessel
that already had a soul.  Because believe me, there is no such thing as
cells multiplying without life.  Take two cells and put them together. 
Raise them to a temperature where they no longer move.  Let them breed
and multiply!  Hogwash!  Bacteria, microbes, will swallow them up;
eventually leave them to be gases and dust.  

“Freedon,” I could comment on her, but I won’t, “widely viewed
as a founder of modern feminism, said in an interview that the leaders
desired to speak up, “Because we don’t want to see feminism used to
bring down a president.””  

Feminism to bring down a president?  What are they talking about?  What
are they talking about?  I’ll tell you what they’re talking about;
they’re talking about what brings about the necessity for an abortion.
 Elicit intercourse, or intercourse that you didn’t want to have bring
forth what it’s supposed to bring forth, according to the Word of God.
 They have reduced feminism to intercourse!  And if you don’t want the
baby, kill it!  They don’t even use their words correctly anymore. 
How can a prostitute who enjoys what she’s doing because she gets
money, and the Bible describes her after the act, she is like simply a
woman eating a piece of bread, and wiping her mouth.  “That took care
of that.  He got what he wanted, and I gave it to him, and I got what I
wanted.”  

So this bunch of women are playing harlot to a whoremonger.  Their words
condemn them!  Rush Limbaugh could do a better job than I can, but I’m
doing the best I can.  

“Used to bring down a president, whose basic public policies have been
good for women.”  

And they’re talking about the Lewinsky case, where he defined what we
all know about, and he said positively, “This does not constitute the
act.”  Hah.  

So, I can kill a person and say, “Well, I didn’t kill him.  Nope. 
No, no, no.  He walked into my axe.  The stupid jerk didn’t pull his
head aside.  He saw it coming!”  

I can take this any place I want, the minute you give way.  And it took
Eve one word off, to send billions to hell! Because Satan said, “It
doesn’t mean that.”  

“Clinton was elected, and re-elected in 1996, and the strengths of
women’s votes, the feminist leaders said they would not stand idly by
while Congress tries to unseat him.”  

Remember I told you sometime ago, and I’ve talked to some of you
privately, and I’ve said that the Republicans will not unseat this
man; he will beat them somehow.  The Republics can never lick the
Democrats, because the Democrats have a bigger in with the devil than
the Republicans do.  If this were a Republican man, the Democrats or
Republicans would get him out.  The same as they got Nixon, who was said
by none other than Mike Wallace, that the best president that he knew
of, was Nixon, except he blew it by being stupid.  He put him above John
Kennedy, Eisenhower, and all the rest of them.  And you know Mike
Wallace is a very, very, not just intellectual, but a very discerning
person.  He’s one of the best we have.  I think he’s better than Sam
Donnellson and some of the rest of them.  

It says, “His record is not perfect, but we’ve got an ally in the
House.”  

What’s the ally all about?  Unlimited, unmitigated, rotten, filthy,
prostitution sex, to the killing of the offspring, and it’s all right.
 He’s their ally.  “We can do what we want and we won’t get a
murder sentence.”  Because he has prevailed upon Congress to pass it,
and now when Congress wants to un-pass it, he’ll veto it.  

Now you’re getting to the place, since this is actually put into the
laws of America, it is no longer simply just legal; it is lawful
according to American law.  So when your legal religion becomes now
lawful, and under the devil, you’re gone.  You are the direct enemy of
the Almighty God Who gave us Ten Commandments, of which the simplest of
all is this: to get your eyes on God, and don’t covet anything your
neighbor has, just treat him like you want to be treated.  And the whole
law of the universe of God and every single person is bound up right
there.  You’ll not kill, you won’t defile him, you won’t lie.  

Now, “Women said they’re issuing a clarion call to halt the
impeachment movement.  Behind the women’s philosophical” –
philosophical, oh we’re philosophical – “assertation…”

What’s a philosophical assertation worth anyway.  It’s just
scientific as I told you, and you can get it, it’s a recent Popular
Mechanics, right on the back pages, it said if the Big Bang had been
hundredths of thousandths second off, either before or after it went
off, we wouldn’t be here.  Who got the Big Bang just right?  What got
the Big Bang just right?  Oh, you can preach, definitely you can tell
there is a system, but you can’t talk about the One that created the
system.  Philosophy so-called.  

Said, “Clinton’s actions are not impeachable.”  

I agree.  Except he under oath perjured himself.  That changes the whole
picture.  Also remember too, she was an intern, she was hired by the
Whitehouse, if that’s not sexual harassment, I’ll eat it.  You say,
“Well, she came onto him.”  It was his job to back off.  Say,
“Bro. Vayle, I don’t know.”  Bro. Branham said so.  

“But they also did not shy away from political charging Clinton’s
…?… with hypocrisy …?… predators.”  

“Oh, we want to do it, but don’t let anybody know about it!” 
Yeah.  I can give you scripture where certain things, if nobody knows
about it, you can get away with it.  But you meet it down the road.  You
might not in a court of law, but you’ll meet it down the road.  Where
the flames never die.

““We did live under other administrations and you didn’t see us
urging impeachment,” added Schmeal.”  That’s like a smealy name. 
“Freedon said after a press conference, that she might not have been
as eager to help every Republican president, as she’s trying to help
this one.  She reiterated a warning, the nation is going to sexual
McCarthyism, detracting attention from more important public issues,
particularly poverty.”

Well, hey, if you got all the abortions you need, there can’t be any
poverty!  Because poverty is where there’s too many people and not
enough merchandise.  Or no way to get it.  See, these people are sick,
sick, sick, sick, gone in the head; they’re mental, they’re crazy! 
And no politician and anybody in politics can make a correct decision,
they’ll lie, lie, lie!  And they’ll legalize everything until they
make it lawful!  By putting it right within the framework of the
constitution, even destroying the constitution, as Satan destroyed the
Word, and all the while, stayed, he said, within the Word, “See, God
didn’t mean that, I’ll tell you what it means.”  Satan made it
legal.  It wasn’t lawful.  

God came right back and said, “Don’t you dare legalize what I make
lawful.  Because if you change this Word, you change Me.”  And they
change the Word and they change God!  

And the only begotten hath led Him forth by words, He described what’s
going on, He said, “I and My Father are one, the works that you see
being done are not done by Me, it’s the Father within Me, and I
speaking His very words, and I’m proving it to you, as Moses did, and
I’m making you face it right now, there it is.”  Wouldn’t do it.  

“The feminists rejected the comparison,” that’s of Justice
Clarence Thomas, when he faced sexual allegations.  And he didn’t
touch any woman, he told some dirty jokes.  And this woman, who claimed
that she was held back, and therefore sexual harassment, she wasn’t
held back, she got bigger and better jobs!  I forget her name, it
doesn’t really matter, don’t want her name anyway.  “Oh,” they
said, “it does not compare to impeaching a president and overturning
an election.  And Patricia Arland, president of the national
organization,” and her pictures up there and poo, yeah, what a mess. 
“Shot back with the suggestion that Clinton’s opponents were the
one’s guilty of hypocrisy.”  Pot can’t call a kettle black, so
let’s all just jump in bed together.  “The very same members of
Congress …?… Anita Hill are now expressing a new found interest in
stopping sexual harassment.”  Oh, it was Anita Hill, they all went for
her and they found out she was a liar.  Just a barefaced liar, that’s
all she was.  Oh, they gave her a good job for it though, and promoted
her.  

“The women were less clear on whether Clinton should receive any
Congressary rebuke short of impeachment, such as a censure.”

Well, the way the nation is, and the way the women are, with their vote
and all, I say, just let him be the way he is, my hands off.  But I just
wanted to explain to you from scripture, what I see in the present
situation here, and why I explained it was, I believe the cup of
iniquity is full to the overflowing, when our president can get away
with what he has done, and change the meaning of words, and he’s not
the only one guilty of changing the constitution, or trying to, but
he’s the one guilty of changing the meaning of words to suit himself,
against what is absolute knowledge, and correct knowledge at that.  I
could say some very lewd things right here now, but if you don’t know
what I’m talking about by now, you’re not even… hey, forget it,
grow up.  

All right.  The question was asked, and a very good question on the
grounds that I did not make tremendous number of clear statements when I
said that homosexuals could be saved but they’d never get to heaven. 
A certain individual, who was involved in homosexuality, took that to
heart without going into exactly what I said.  I was talking about the
fact that homosexuals had been with us for a long time.  They are a part
of what brought on the flood; they brought on the destruction of Sodom
and Gomorrah.  

The Bible also, without tolerating them, recognized that male
prostitutes, homosexuals amongst men, was quite common, because it said,
“Though shalt not bring the price of a dog into the coffers,” and
that the dog is a male prostitute.  

Whether Bro. Branham knew that or not makes no difference to me; I know
he said, “If you sell a dog you don’t pay tithes on it.”  Since
the dog is a type, and you can understand why, because you’ve seen
dogs, of the male homosexuals, you can see that the Bible has been
against male homosexuality, even to the extent where it tells you, after
the males began doing these things, the woman also now, become lesbians.
 

Paul mentions in the Book of Corinthians, “Such were some of you.” 
And I used that only to show that in the days of Paul, we had
homosexuality.  We have always had it.  We had it since the time of Ham,
who saw his father’s nakedness.  And he enjoined in a homosexual act
with his father and his son was cursed.  Now that’s ‘THUS SAITH THE
LORD’, because Bro. Branham told me that, I asked him the question. 
So homosexuality is something, which is not tolerated by God in any way,
shape, or form.  

Now the thing is at the time of Paul there were homosexuals.  There were
quite a number of them.  But they heard the gospel of the Lord Jesus
Christ, and they became converted, and he said, “Such were some of
you.” And I know that the brother who got upset did not recall I told
you time and time again, of a woman who came to me, who was a lesbian. 
She could not help herself.  It was destroying her marriage, and
destroying her life, because she knew it was wrong.  The devil was cast
out of her, which was a filthy spirit!  That’s exactly what it was,
and it could manifest – a filthy spirit can manifest in lesbianism,
homosexuality, or you woman even with your skirts cut up to your
buttocks!  Because a filthy spirit is a filthy spirit, and it’s
sexual, and Bro. Branham mentioned it to a woman who had a filthy spirit
upon her, the same as a man trying to pick her up with the same spirit
on her.  It’s a filthy!  Shall I spell it for you, so you don’t
misunderstand it?  Well, get a dictionary.  I’ve laid it out.  It’s
that spirit.  

But you can be born again.  Now, and when you’re born again, you may
have to fight that, under the terms of sanctification, but with the help
of the Word, and the life of the Word, you will not be that person
either instantaneously – and it will be instantaneous, you won’t be
that same person, but you’ll have the same thing in your body.  You
may have to fight it; you may not.  But you will not do it again,
because you know it is wrong. 

Now, I brought out the fact, and the brother did not notice, I brought
out the fact of Dr. George – oh, what’s his name?  [Someone in
congregation says, “Merkle.”]  Yeah.  He was asked in a meeting in
Vancouver, and they said, “Can you cure AIDS?”  He said,
“Absolutely.  But why bother?  They won’t change their lifestyle.”
 

Now I brought out his name to show what is in the present hour. 
Lesbians are leading in church services.  Lesbians and homosexuals, the
gay community, have started churches and are inundating the churches. 
Now, they may be walking in love, and in niceness, and in sweetness, and
in kindness, and profess Jesus as savior, and talk about the blood, and
take communion, and after a fashion, as Bro. Branham described, they can
be saved, they have some kind of experience with God!  But the fact that
they continue in their homosexuality proves they’re not born again,
and they will not go to heaven!  

Now I don’t know if anybody here didn’t catch that, when I said that
a few weeks ago, but evidently there are some who didn’t catch it. 
You see, your life will change, because it’s what one person said. 
The fact that you stole does not make you a thief.  You are a thief! 
That’s why you stole.  

So the point is, when you are delivered by God, and you claim a rebirth,
you call it salvation – “I am saved, I believe in the blood, I take
communion,” and so on. Sure, fine by me!  How come you haven’t quit
being a homosexual?  

Now, I agree with Trent Lot, except for one thing, Lot does not realize
that the act of continual homosexual intercourse will breed a spirit.  I
checked with Bro. Branham.  And I said, “Bro. Branham is it not so
that if you come and indulge in a habit, like smoking, it eventually
becomes a spirit?”  

He said, “That’s exactly right.”  

You see, I checked with Bro. Branham on different things.  And when I
stand before you, let me tell you flat, this Bible is open, knowing
there is a God in heaven, I’m not telling you lies like a lot of
people tell you, “Oh, Bro. Branham said so and so, Bro. Branham
didn’t say.”  What he told me I am telling you.  And I will meet
every one of you, and everybody on the tape, on judgment day before the
most high God.  That’s not the only way that spirits come into peoples
lives.  But it is the one way, and it’s a very, very bad way, and you
and I can agree on that.

Well, we’ve covered Clinton, feminists, homosexuals, and redemption. 
So I say to the brother, you believe this Message the only way you can
believe this Message, is because you are seed, and you are a sheep that
went astray, and a sheep can do everything a pig can do, and sometimes a
whole lot better and more!  God can save from the uttermost, the Bible
tells you. He can save the little baby that dies, that baby will go to
heaven, and He can save the most heinous sinner in his dying breath.  So
don’t get carried away with any ideas, brother, about your conduct or
anybody else’s, just get with that Word, and stay with it, because
that Word is full of life, it’s the only thing that is going to get
you there, because nothing else is going to get you there under any
other considerations.

A brother wrote in, and he said, “I would appreciate if you could
explain to me what Bro. Branham was meaning about have you received the
Holy Ghost since you believed, as laid out in the Seventh Church Age
book, pages 144-148.”  Then he’s asking the question now about that
portion.  “Is this the same thing as the eagle being hatched out under
a chicken, and raised on the manure pile, knowing it did not belong, but
could not quite pin-point where the difference lay, until the day the
eagle came, and then it recognized its destiny, received the living
vindicated Word of the hour?”  

Well, that’s very good, but it’s not the hundred percent answer,
according to what you might call chronology, and you know, what really
takes place within the experiences that line with the Word of the living
God.  Because even as God interprets His Word by manifesting it,
bringing it to pass, so in our lives there must be experiences that the
Word declares are valid to us and are ours.  [End of side one.]  

Let’s just go into this according to what he is saying.  “Is this
the same thing as the eagle being hatched out under a chicken, and then
raised with the chickens, and hearing the cry of the eagle, recognizes
the call?”  

Well, actually, what you’re dealing with there is the fact of – and
he is dealing – with the Word of God saying in the mouth of Paul,
“Have you received the Holy Ghost since you believed?”  

Now, the point is this: what did you believe, when did you believe it,
which is not too important, but unto what did you believe?  Now unto
what you did believe is the ultimate.  What do you want?  What are you
trying to get to?  What have you got in mind?  Your goal?  Your destiny?
 And in this case, your eternal one, if there is indeed an eternity. 
And remember there is no eternity except those that have eternality in
them.  That means the very life of God.  You see what I mean?  That’s
election.  A part of God.

So have you received the Holy Ghost since you believed?  Believed? 
Believed what?  Well, what I want to believe unto, I’m convinced
there’s God.  At the same time I’m convinced that I’ve got a
lesser conviction than I need, in order to be right with that God,
wherever He is, but He’s out there somewhere, and I want to know how
to get to Him, and He receives me, and He takes care of me, particularly
when I depart this life, that came to this body.  I want to know.  I got
to know, can I be right with God?  Now you’ve got to believe unto
that.  See?  You understand what I’m saying?  You must say, “To
believe unto what?”  That’s what Paul said.  “Have you received of
the Holy Ghost?”  That we don’t even know if there’s a Holy Ghost?
 Then what in the world were you baptized for?  See?  Well, he said,
“You were believing unto the coming One.”  See, believing unto!  Now
He’s come and gone, and now you believe unto the baptism with the Holy
Ghost.  Because without the baptism with the Holy Ghost, rest assured,
you have no assurity.    

Now, once you get baptized with the Holy Ghost, it’s over, you’re
positioned with God!  Right to the day of redemption!  Come back in a
resurrection!  A hundred percent placed with God.  So that’s what they
were to believe unto.  

Now, how do you believe?  Only by the truly revealed Word in which is
the Holy Ghost, the life of God.  And so the little eagle in the chicken
pen waited for that Word.  And the chicken’s were saying, “Oh,
there’s a Trinity. Oh, we’re Jesus only. Oh, no, no, Mohammed is
right. Oh, no, Confucius is right. Oh, no, no, the …?… is right. Oh,
no, no, the Shiites are right. Oh, no, no, the Taliban is right. Oh, no,
no…” The poor little eagle trying to – he couldn’t be satisfied
with the manure heap.  And suddenly a voice came out, which was the
gospel!  Which is the truth!  Which is the revealed Word of God!  And he
heard it, he said, “That’s right!”

Now, listen, he didn’t know the first thing about it, he didn’t even
know why he said this is right, he couldn’t even apprehend, but he
said, “This is right!”  

Now, the next thing when he found the right Word, the right God, though
still in a fog, a lot of mysteries remaining, but he knew he got onto
something, this is what he wanted, he gets baptized in water in the Name
of the Lord Jesus Christ.  So number one: his thinking is completely
changed; he’s got the right thinking.  Number two: he’s baptized in
water.  The third thing is: God has to give him the Holy Ghost.

Now, I was a Pentecostal without wanting to be.  Because I never admired
a lot about them, from the day I was with them.  But they taught me
erroneously, that I had to tarry to receive the Holy Ghost.  And yet I
could read my own Bible, that said when Paul laid hands on them, they
weren’t tarrying; they’d got it!  And when Peter came down they
didn’t tarry, they got it!  But the Pentecostals said, “Oh, you got
to tarry.”  And any idiot reading his Bible knew they had to tarry,
that number of days, because the Holy Ghost wasn’t given!  Once He’s
given, you don’t have to tarry!  

It’s just like when I cook a meal, and I invite someone to come, and I
won’t mention a certain guest that I’ve often invited.  Invariably
he came late.  And I could have killed him.  Because when I cook food I
want it hot, I want to eat it now, and if you want to come to my place,
and dilly-dally, I’m going to eat my food, and you can eat the scraps.
 In other words, when the food is on the table hot, you eat it!  And
when the Holy Ghost is come, you come to Him!  In other words, why did
He say come and dine?  Why do you say the sheep are lying knee deep in
grass and in clover?  Why do you say they lie down beside still water? 
The old song, “Jesus has a table spread,” is true.  I’m going to
tell you something, when the manna appeared, they better pick it in a
hurry, or it’s gone.  

So I was taught wrong.  So instead of actually coming to the place of
knowing the truth, I tarried and tarried and screamed to talk in
tongues.  Well, I finally talked in tongues.  Like a voice said, “What
are you doing talking in English?”  In other words, if you got the
Holy Ghost and you got a gift, you just can’t get a gift without the
Holy Ghost, you know, it’s got to be imparted.  So I talked in tongues
a lot, and it’s not the answer; the Word is the answer.  The life is
not in tongues and interpretation, prophesy, healing, and everything
else, it’s in the Word of the living God.  

So, now, what am I saying?  I’m saying what Bro. Branham said.  You
repent.  That’s a change of mind.  You got the right Word, instead of
the wrong Word.  Number two: you’re baptized in the Name of the Lord
Jesus Christ.  God does a third thing, and He’s got to do it!  He’s
got to do it and it will be done!  Because the spirit answers to the
blood!  You’re under the blood; you’re cleansed!  Bro. Branham
talked… Jehovah couldn’t come down without the blood!  With the
blood, He can come, right shake His hands, hug His neck!  And He’s not
offended.  Nothing to be offended about.  Certainly the Holy Ghost comes
in.  You’re baptized.  Now, the next thing: piling Word upon Word upon
Word upon Word, till you’re plumb filled with the Holy Ghost!  And
that’s the way the individual is, because that’s the way the church
is, and the Bride today is plumb full of the Holy Ghost, with headship
here.  Now that’s a whole lot more than the Church Age Book wrote.  So
that takes care of that.

All right.  The other day, in fact more than one day, and I’m going to
quit here, because I don’t have time to go into Ramification, which is
next.  We can save that for next Saturday.  I mentioned to you, that God
in the beginning, Genesis 1:1, is Elohim.  The unknown God Who is
primarily known for two things: omniscience and omnipotence, with
omnipotence heading omniscience.  Because when you see omnipotence, you
can be with the human mind, very, very upset as to whether God is truly
omniscient.  Really, really wise.  But He is.  So man stands back and
recognizes power.  The next thing he recognizes is not necessarily
wisdom, but knowledge, and trickery!  Or philosophy.  To give him a
position whereby somehow he might get into this power that is out there,
and he knows is there by reason of creation, and a storm that can blow a
hundred and fifty miles an hour, and destroy everything in its path,
even two hundred and fifty miles an hour, I think… winds have been
recorded up to two hundred and fifty miles an hour, I’m not sure.  Is
anybody know for sure about that?  I think I’ve read where it’s a
hundred and eighty-seven miles, at least.  A hundred and fifty is not
uncommon.  Oh, I know there’s pressure even more than that, you can
have winds up there somewhere at a thousand miles an hour, worse than
that even.  We’re talking about the earth here, now.  Earthquakes;
shatter everything.  Volcano; darken the sky for months.  Not totally
dark, but darken the sky.  

Now, man would like to get in on that power.  Now unless he’s a
prophet and a God ordained people, he will not understand the
omniscience of God, he will not get in on that power legally, be like
the devil, who used trickery to cannery, anything else he can, to
exploit, and yet use what is there, to act as though he’s some great
person.

So, it’s difficult unless you really have some entrée, some way to
get to God, and there’s something in you that will take from God, that
you’ll know His power and omniscience, but you still don’t know Who
He is.  And that’s love.  

So you got a God Who is love, and within that love, making the
three-fold, are two more.  And that is omniscience, and omnipotence. 
And I want you to know that the scripture actually said that God so
loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, Who is the image of
God, Who is both the wisdom, and the power of God.  In full
manifestation.  And the power of God was the cross, to redeem us from
sin.

So all right, we look at Elohim.  And Elohim is that God.  But He’s
not known intrinsically, and well known, as we know Him today.  But
He’s in the Bible, and you look at the Bible, and you begin to
understand what I’m talking about.  But it takes a long time, really,
to get there.  So this Elohim is really, as Bro. Branham said, El, Elah,
Elohim – and I’ll quote that to you, or read it to you – he said,
“This great One, self-existent One is in Genesis 1, and in Genesis 2,
He goes to Jehovah.”  

Now, I’m going to tell you something.  I know that I heard that, and I
know that I read it.  But I had lost the memory of it completely.  Which
goes to show the scripture is a hundred percent right, when Jesus said,
“When He the Holy Spirit’s come, He’ll lead you into all truth,
and bring all things to your remembrance.”  Now He cannot bring things
to your remembrance unless you once had them.  

And I’ll show you positively that I’m saying the same thing William
Branham said, but I’ve extended it, that we might have a better
understanding, and yet I know that somewhere I will find exactly what I
am saying, and He’s already said it.  I’ve had that happen so many
times, it’s old hat, I don’t worry anymore.  See, you got to come to
the place where you know that you know.  You don’t grope anymore.  You
don’t try to look for things.  You don’t try to be somebody. 
You’re content to just say, “Hey, Lord, I’m with You, You’re
with me.  Because I am with You.”  And how do you know?  Who is on the
Lord’s side?  When the Shepherd call, who’s the sheep?

So all right, this great El, Elah, Elohim, the inscrutable God of the
Word, the self-existent, self-defining, sovereign One, keep away from
Him.  And don’t try anything.  Not going to work.  If He doesn’t
want it, He won’t take it.  If He doesn’t want you to have it, you
can’t get it.  You don’t have a say; you just have an ear.  Your
mouth is shut.  Bible says, “Every mouth dumb before God.” But it
never says every ear closed.  The ear is open.  You got to listen,
whatever God says.  Inscrutable.  Can’t approach Him.  He’s holy. 
Won’t take no for an answer; won’t take excuses, you got to face
Him.  But the beautiful thing is, as Bro. Branham said, “If God made a
commandment, He’s got to make a way to obey it, to get that promise,
whatever it is.”  

So all right, the next thing we saw was Jehovah in the second chapter,
where God begins to deal with man, and I brought out the fact that due
to the various elements, or blessings, manifestations, glories, found in
God, He had to call Himself Jehovah, which would indicate the grace of
God, and the love of God, where Elohim had it, but didn’t manifest it!
 And His Name manifests, as you watch what the Name does.  That God,
revealing the intrinsicalities – now He’s not departmentalized, like
Mr. Clinton.  Who shut his mind off here, and do what he wanted to do,
and think it’s okay.  Have to throw that in, because I can’t stand
what he’s doing.  

Now Bro. Branham says: Ephesians Parallels Joshua.  [05/15/60.]

[99]	Let me, before we go any further, go back, to Genesis 1:26.  (And
Dale Klinger sent this to me.)  I’ll pick it up Wednesday.  When God
made man… Before He made man, He called Himself “El,” El;
“Elah,” “Elohim.”  The word, in the Hebrew means,
“self-existence,” all by Himself.  Nothing existed before Him.  He
was all the existence there ever was…  (Isn’t that beautiful?)  He
was all the existence… (Isn’t that beautiful speech?  Simple as a
brick is a brick, and a stone is a stone.)  He was all the existence
there ever was, self-existent One: “El, Elah, Elohim,” means the
“all-sufficient, all-powerful, Almighty, self-existent One.”  Oh.  

Now, let’s listen to the next paragraph here.  Paragraph 100.  

[100]	But in Genesis 2, when He made man, He said, “I am Yahua,
J-e-h-o-v-a-h.”  

Really, J-h-v-h.  There’s no vowels, this is supposed to be
unpronounceable Name.  Why would it be the unpronounceable Name? 
Because there’s no way that you can know anyway what lies in the grace
and the love of God, despite His omniscience and wisdom, and omnipotence
out here, unless He tells you.  So you can’t pronounce it.  Eye hath
not seen, nor ear heard!  It tells you, you stand back and say,
“What?”  

And He says, “I’ll tell you.”  

[100]	What did it mean?  “I am the all-existence One Who has created
something off of 	Myself to be a son of Mine, or a temporary, or an
amateur little one of Mine.”  	Oh, glory.  Why?  He gave man…
“Jehovah” means that He gave man to be an 	amateur god.  Because He
is Father God, and He made a man an amateur god, so 	He isn’t
self-existent anymore; (In other words, all by Himself.)  He exists with
	His family.  Amen.  El, Elah, Elohim… Now, now He’s Jehovah,
“Jehovah” 	meaning the “One Who exists with His family.”

Now, God made man to be predominate over all the earth; he had dominion.
 And the earth was man’s dominion.  Is that Scripture?  Then if
that’s his domain, he was god over the earth.  He could speak, and it
would be so.  He could speak this, and it would be.  Oh.  There He is,
God, Jehovah, the One Who once existed in self-existence, (all by
Himself, see?) now exists with His family, and His little ones… There
you are.

	Godhead Explained.  [04/25/61, page 21.]

[57]	Now, Jehovah God, up here, couldn’t touch the human race, because
of His Own 	law of holiness.  

Now, you notice He said, “Jehovah God.”  He was Jehovah Elohim, but
He was only Elohim at that moment of His existence.  And had He stayed
that way, at the time He brought man, who knows?  Who knows?  Because
remember, God’s got to declare Himself.  And Jesus got to lay out the
whole thing.  And when you see Him, you see the Father and His family.  

[57]	Now, Jehovah God, up here, couldn’t touch the human race, because
of His Own 	law of holiness.  (Now that still stands good as Elohim, and
as Jehovah Elohim.)  	Jehovah (Elohim) became sin for us and paid the
price that the same Jehovah 	(Elohim) could come and live in us: God
above us, God with us, God in us: not 	three gods; one God.  

So when I taught as I did the other day, I want you to know it’s right
here, taken right off the tapes, that I was telling you the exact truth,
and I was expanding, bringing you what Bro. Branham said was the grace
element where now this God, untouchable, immoveable, iron, brass, uh-uh,
can’t get Him, has a side, the third, which is love, which is Jehovah,
and that is to His people.  Now, you can understand why it says over
here in Ephesians, and I’m going to read it to you.  Oh, I guess I
could quote it to you, but sometimes I get messed up.  Now it says here,


Blessed be the God and Father (Eph 1:3) of our Lord Jesus Christ,       
            who hath blessed us with all spiritual blessings in the
(heavenlies)                        in Christ:

According (according.  No other way.) as (God) hath chosen us in        
       (God Himself) before the foundation of the world, that we should 
               be holy and without blame before him

(In love) having predestinated us…

Jehovah dealing with man.  Making him an amateur god.  That’s why He
could have the only begotten Son, exactly as He was, positioned as He
was, everything as He was, and everything in line for you and me.  

That’s as far as we’re going to go, because our time is gone, and I
didn’t think I’d take this long.  Because as long as I stand still,
I don’t get too dizzy.  I did not get dizzy by doing too many good
turns. Believe me, this is just something [Bro. Vayle laughs] –
something I got by old age and it’s not too great. All right, let’s
rise and be dismissed.

	Our kind, gracious God, even our heavenly Father.  We understand more
again today than we understood previously, and we rejoice in the element
of liberation, because You said, “Whom the Lord makes free, he is free
indeed.”  And there certainly isn’t anymore freedom in this world,
than Your pronouncement on us, on everything that pertains to us,
because if You’ve said it, who can come against You?  Even as it said
in the Word, “If a man sin against man, the judge shall judge him. 
But if a man sin against Thee, O God, who shall plead for him?”  

And now, Lord, there is no more sinning against You, because You have
cleared the way, that we can be holy even as You are holy, for You have
made that even as the prophet said, they certainly took the scripture
that Jesus said, “Be ye holy, even as your Father which is in heaven
is holy,” and our prophet told us, “If God demanded it, then God had
to make a way for it.”  Because God’s demands can only be met by
God, we know that, Lord, and we only meet those demands within You, as
we are empowered and enabled, even as Jesus, Your Own Son, recognized
that You in Him did the speaking and the working, and it is the same in
us.  God in us, and willing to do a good service unto Him, according to
what You want.

	So we thank You then Lord that we have a clarity, a day that is greater
than we had yesterday.  And thereby Lord, we know we have greater
strength than what we had yesterday.  And now going on from strength to
strength, and glory to glory, even as by the Word of the living God, the
life within the Word, knowing that You are that Word, we are a part of
it, that life therefore sustaining us, how Lord, what manner of people
we ought to be, and not only that, how the blessings of God, which are
in Your Word, and which are real and the heavens are full of, are our
portion, and we can reach out.  And yea Lord, it’s not even a matter
of reaching out, You’ve heaped them upon us, all we have to do is just
let You heap Your blessing upon us, which we know to be the truth,
because that is so.  

So we commend ourselves to You this morning, Father, according to the
Word of grace, the truth, and may there not be one sick one amongst us,
may there be not one who is carried away with any form of emulation, or
sin, or discouragement, or anything whatsoever, Lord, which should go
against Your holy commandment, and You Yourself being that Word, Lord. 
In all things may Your Name be glorified, through us specifically,
because that is what You want.  For we are temples of the Holy Ghost,
and therefore we are temples of the same Word, let it be manifested. 
Whatever our sins are, Lord, wash them in the blood.  Help us to be a
hundred percent, forgive those things, or bring us into any bondage
whatsoever, may Your Name be greatly glorified.  May there be a song on
our lips, a joy in our heart.  May there be joy in our feet, Lord, as it
were literally dancing in the streets of God, with the rain falling
about us, rejoicing and calling upon Thy great Name in love, and in
ecstasy, because Thou art God.  May our rejoicing always be in You. 
Unto Thee we ascribe the glory, in the Name of Jesus Christ.  Amen.
