What Happens When the Holy Ghost Comes #1   

 

Bro. Lee Vayle   -     Date:  Feb. 22, 1981

	

	Heavenly Father, we thank You for the privilege of being here in Your
house.  And  the privilege, Lord, of hearing praises rendered unto Thee,
and also, Lord, the testimonies of our lips of which we even sing.  We
thank You, Lord God, for all of these privileges.  Help in strength and
liberty, and that which is still in the land of freedom to this extent,
that we appreciate what You’ve given us.  Above all we appreciate Your
Word.   We pray therefore, Lord, tonight that You will help us to have
that Word further revealed, to help us in some great consequence to us. 
We pray Lord, that You’ll anoint.  We’re depending upon It, in the
Name of Jesus Christ we pray.  Amen.  You may be seated. 

1.	You know I like that song ‘Amazing Grace,’ it’s really one of
the greatest songs in all the world.  And I believe certain songs were
written for this day, even though they were written in the last Age. 
And I believe this is one of them.  Because this Age refers to those who
think they see and they’re blind.  Now you know, the Bible says when
Jesus said, “Because you say, “I see,” He said, “Your sins
remaineth.” Now He said, “If you hadn’t have said it,” He said,
“Your sins could have been forgiven.”  …We sing that song, and I
sure hope that all of us see, by the eye of the prophet.  Because there
is a Bride, and there is an eye that is single to the body.  That the
entire body is full of light at this particular time of course, there
are so many people running around and teaching. 

	 And I have to admit, I’m very slowly running around in reverse gear.
 And I never have got around much.  I don’t believe in it.  And with
the teaching, there is usually a lot of splitting, because of the
teaching.  Because the emphasis is not put as I believe in the proper
place.  Where the Word becomes alive, through Christ.  And the Word, is
there to unveil Him.  In other words, when a preacher preaches, and is
truly inspired of the Holy Spirit, especially in the realm of teaching
the Word; because that’s where so much Scripture is used.  And you
should be able to, in spite of what he is like, to see past Hhm
entirely, and see Christ revealed.  Now, I ’m not talking in terms
here, of a Roman Catholic priest set-up.  You know, where they say,
“Well, he puts on the robe, and as long as he’s got the robe on,
…you know, …that’s it.  I’m not talking about that.

2.	I’m talking about the actual fact that, when that Word goes
forward, that Christ must be unveiled.  And you must actually see Him,
who is that Word.  And if you’re not, there’s something wrong in my
estimation, with that.  And so, hopefully that we'll begin to see Christ
more and more, in this Word, as I hope this morning you saw It.  I
showed you the Alpha and Omega principle, of the First and Last Age.  I
wish I had time to take much Scripture, and just show you, as Bro.
Branham said it, giving us the key, “That the First Age could’ve had
a Rapture, but, the Bride wasn’t all in.”  And so therefore, the
teaching of the First Age, is the teaching of the last Age.  And because
Paul admitted that the First Age would go down into spiritual
fornication, through the mind receiving that which was not truly
revealed to him. Now, they’d be preaching what he said, but they
wouldn’t be preaching with revelation.  See?  So, it went down.  So,
at the end-time, it is duty bound that this Word has to come back in Its
revelation.  

3.	Now, I was talking to your pastor before service.  And I said, “I
always have been a very fortunate person, in my nature. or what has
happened to me naturally.”  I don’t understand it, but I seem to
read the right books.  I seem to be many times, with the right person,
at the right place.  It’s just something like a little gift.  And many
times, that in this Message I’ll know certain things the prophet said,
that make everything just exactly right.  And one of the statements I
brought out tonight was that, I don’t know if you’ve ever heard it
ever quoted before, maybe you heard me say it, but, Bro. Branham said,
“We have seen the Word of God demonstrated in power. But we have never
seen It, in Its revelation.” 

	The demonstration of power is the latter rain, you’ve seen It. 
It’s been gifts and manifestations.  That’s fine.  Now, if you want
it, you can have it.  It’s all right.  But have you seen it, in its
revelation?  Now, what do you want to settle for?  See? Now, I’m very
blunt.  And I wouldn’t mind taking you all apart one at a time, if you
confront me.  Not that I have a bone to pick with you.  But I want to
tell you something, it’s serious, it’s all but over.  See?  And it
all hinges on this Message.  When those Seals were opened, Christ became
those Seals.  And I remember Bro. Branham in that fainting voice of his,
overcoming, he said, “It’s been Jesus all the time." [Said with a
meek voice]  See?  Now, there’s been a lot of fluff and a lot of
tinsel, a lot of things around him.  

4.	And at the end-time, the church that John saw… he was shown, …not
the Bride. But he was so amazed, at her sheer beauty, that he wondered
with amazement.  And she was just as about as rotten and filthy, as
anything could ever be.  Because it took one word from Eve, to change
the entire course of history.  And I boo-booed, by not taking off the
refrigerator, that my wife so kindly cut out of the Reader’s Digest. 
Now, how many of you have heard of the author ‘Michener’?  Have ever
read from ‘Michener’?  South Sea Island, and The Covenant, …
that’s good.  In the Covenant, Michener makes the statement which I
wish I could quote verbatim.  But speaking of the South Afrikaans, he
says something like this, “If you ever corrupt one word, everything
else becomes corrupted.” 

 	I don’t know where the man got it.  I don’t know where he got it. 
He had to get it from God.  He was talking about the purity of the
language.  He said, “You change one word.” And he put it down to
them who those who desired to keep their language pure.  In other words,
to keep a national integrity.  That’s the same with this Word, one
word has changed everything, until the end church ends up beautiful,
full of power, I believe of the Holy Ghost, the whole charismatic thing
…and swing God anointing all flesh; until it’s the most beautiful
thing in the world has ever seen.  But it’s the hardest, most damnable
thing in history.  Because she’s full of the blood of the martyrs. 
Now, along side of that, the Word manifested in power, it demonstrated
and so on, there has got to be a Bride, that is a Bride of revelation.  

5.	Now, that’s what I’ve been trying to preach this morning and show
you.  I took the Alpha, and I took the Omega, and this will be without a
doubt, the most important message you’ve heard, which was preached
this morning.  In other words, everything else will almost pale into
insignificance beside it.  But there will be those things coming forth,
that I have said will change your life.  You will not be the same.  I
got to thinking tonight, before I went over my notes, I decided I’d
shuffle through my notes, and I went to number six, which was sixteen
solid pages.  We’ll have to sit here Sunday morning for about three
solid hours. So, if you want to bring a banana…go ahead.  That’s my
wife, she gets hungry, because she’s got hypoglycemia.  She’ll be
entitled to have her banana. That’s all right by me.  Just step
outside of the door, come back in again.  And I’ll yell a little
louder, so it’ll get to you.  

6.	All right.  I wondered what had happened, when I preached this
series, … and I told our own church, … from this time on you go
forward, or backward.  I found the statement, I won’t tell you what it
is, I read my notes pretty well verbatim, pretty well.  With this little
comment, maybe I can cut it down.  That last sixteen page one.  Sunday
morning, or Sunday night, I don’t know which way it is going to
fall…maybe Sunday morning.  I saw exactly where it was turned down. 
And where the church took an about face.  Now, I hate to talk like this,
but I’ve already made my stand, where I live, that I’m not fooling. 
But they didn’t believe me.  See?  I can take those sermons, and trace
the course of what went wrong.  Because they couldn’t understand what
I’m talking about, in these messages.  

	So, these are important, not because I say so, but because they are
important.  Wouldn’t matter who taught them, wouldn’t matter who did
it.  I believe they came from the Lord, and I hope so.  Now, in the
first message we saw that the Holy Spirit baptism, (that's this morning)
was responsible for two tremendous irrevocable…that means, you can’t
change them, and you can’t call them back.  You’re stuck with it. 
These two tremendous, irrevocable, experiences.  One: the Holy Spirit
irrevocably, united us with God, making us one, that’s individually. 
This never ends.  There is no way it ever malfunctions, or, goes out of
existence.  

7.	And we took 1 Corinthians 6:17

		(17)	But he that is joined unto the Lord is one spirit.

 	Doesn’t say two, It says one.  And since the whole is greater than
the part, and the part is contained by the whole, and the less is
blessed of the better, it means everything that is in this verse, stands
in God, one Spirit.  You are no longer recognized, as an individual
apart from God.  You are only recognized, as one who is in God. 
That’s why Paul said, “For me to live, is Christ.”  Wish I had
time to preach on Galatians 2:20, I’m going to drop it, but I will see
that you get a tape.  I’ve got an entirely new version, since going
into this here, Scripture.  Now, what is He saying here?  He is
absolutely talking about a marriage union.  And so therefore, it is a
horrible thing to be joined to a harlot.  

 	And the people join themselves to a harlot system, and they become one
flesh, one person, one entity.  But he that is joined to the Lord,
becomes glorious.  As Bro. Branham said, “He became us, that we might
become Him,” is absolutely the truth.  And there, is where marriage
is.  That’s why the woman is that supple vessel, that she can form to
the man.  That’s why she forms to Satan.   Satan could …?... her,
that’s why Satan could bring out of her, everything that was in him. 
That’s why Christ can bring out of a Bride, everything that is in Him.
 And that’s why you husbands, bring out of our wives what's in you,
whether you want to admit it or not.  “Tell it Bro. Vayle, right in
the gut.”  That’s right you husbands. You check it out.  You’re
going to find what’s in your wife.  You are bringing out of her,
what’s in you.  You have to, because, Mary typifies union with Jesus
Christ.  I’m quoting, out of 'Choosing a Bride'.  See?  Sure, it’s
true.  

 	People always want to blame their wives for everything. You are a
bunch of hard head nuts, to tell you the truth.  Stubborn like a hog,
many times.  I’m going to tell you, there’s something in man, that
can bring out of that woman, that nature that belongs, to that man.  You
see, because she came out of him.  And he can make that woman, the
Queen, you bet your life.  If that isn’t the case, why does God do it?
 If that isn’t the case, how does she typify marriage?  Why would the
prophet say, “The greatest thing outside of the Holy Spirit, God could
give a man is a woman.”  See?  

8.	All right.  Joined to Him.  John 14: I’ve got to say a lot of
things and say them fast and hard, and weave them in, because I can’t
be here too long.  I would miss two years already. John 14:20

		(20)	At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and (you) in
me, 						and I in you.

	I want to ask you a question.  How long does that day continue? 
That’s not when you receive the Holy Spirit, and you have some grand
and glorious experience, whereby in, you suddenly know, because all the
thrills are there, and you feel so wonderfully elated, and emancipated,
and bubbly and effervescent, and everything else.  No!  That day when He
comes in from that time on,  is a living experience, of you knowing. 
See?  You say, ‘Bro. Vayle, why don’t we know it?”  Because you
don’t keep your minds on It.  You’ve been sold a bill of goods. 
Like I said this morning, people say the Holy Ghost, is given for this. 
He was given for that.  He was not. He was given to join you to God, and
make you one with Him.  See?  

9.	Now, that’s the same like I say about marriage.  Wife goes about
her work, all the day in her home.  Whomp, whomp, whomp, whomp, over the
dust is all off, and the kids are doing this and that and another thing.
 And the time for her and her husband to get together, well, he ain’t
got time,……?...  You got one cruddy marriage.  Man works all day
long, works his finger to the bone, and that’s all he knows, work,
work, work.  And his poor wife waiting at home, have a little love and
companionship, he hasn’t got time for her.  I’m going to tell you
something.  God’s got all the time in the world, plus we ain't got no
time for God.  Paul said, “As long as you keep this in mind.” But
everybody is sold a bill of goods, of emotion.  And they bypass the
mind, for years.  And this is the mind age.  

	And the mind does not move.  The mind concentrates.  The last moving
part is the eye.  The mirror on what the eye sees, your mind apprehends
by your ears.  And in hearing, you see.  I saw every vision Bro. Branham
had.  That he told about.  I saw every intimate thing in the Scripture,
that man saw by vision, that I was told about.  I am co-equal with Bro.
Branham, in his understanding of the Scripture, as revealed by Almighty
God to him, on the proviso, that the Holy Spirit illuminates It to the
same depth.  I don’t know if He will or not.  And he might go even
further.  Because I’m heir to the same thing.  See?  Now, He united us
to Himself individually, and irrevocably.  Secondly, He united  the
members of the Bride to each other who were united to Himself. 

10.	And He becomes the head of the husband.  We saw this over in 1
Corinthians 12:12.  

		(12)	For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the
members 

                        of that one body, being many, are one body: so
also, is Christ. (See?)

		(13)	For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, …

	That’s why It says over in Ephesians [4:5] “One spirit, one
baptism, one body, one God.” 

		(13)	…whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free;
and have

                        been all made to drink into one Spirit. 

		(14)	For the body is not one member, but many.

		

	Then He goes on to describe it further.  Over here in John 17:21-24

		(21)	That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in
thee, …

	Now notice, He tells how they all become one in the horizontal, which
is through the vertical.  There is no way that the Bride is not one in
the horizontal, she is.  If every single member is one in the vertical,
there is no way, because you see, that which is in the flesh, is
entirely superficial, and set to one side.  And it’s only what counts
in the Spirit, and that’s God’s Spirit, not your Spirit.  See? 
Okay.  

		(21)	 …that they…may also be one in us: that the world may believe
						that thou hast sent me.

11.	 Now notice, that there is something in there that is absolutely
tremendous, that’ll repeat at the end-time.  The world is going to
know something.  I believe that.  That’s why Bro. Branham said,
“She’s a super, super race, approaching unto Him.”  She’s got
something, nobody else has got.  Now:  

		(22) 	And the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they
may 					be one, even as we are one:

		(23)	 I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one;
and 					that the world may know that thou hast sent me, (He says it two
times.  					And gives them reason to believe, if it happens then,
it’s going to happen 					again.)  and thou hast loved them, as thou
hast loved me.

	Now, that’s wonderful.  Everybody’s got no problem believing, that
God loved the Son.   They have a problem believing that God loves them. 
But It says right here, when that vertical goes into the horizontal,
you’re going to know.  Now, that’s absolutely true, because the
Scripture says, we’re going to know as we’re known. And it's been
proven by the discerning Word.  God Himself, was stood there, and stood
here in the meetings with Bro. Branham, and proved He could read every
heart from one to five million, …not all at one time, but depending on
who He was reading…you couldn’t hide if you tried. Showing that God
knew every single thing about you.  And there was nothing hidden that
wasn’t revealed.  And therefore, there’s nothing about God, that is
not revealed.  See?  

12.	That’s why Bro. Branham said. “That Bride, with a character to
stand still long enough.”  How long can you stand still?  I wish I had
time to preach from the time of the Resurrection, and I can show you
what’s wrong with the entire church system.  And this people who
believe this Message…so-called…they won’t stand still.  Bro.
Branham said the same thing.  I forget where he said it.  I can find it
in the Bible for you, though.  Nail it right down.  

		(24)	Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with
me 						where I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou hast
given 						me: for thou lovedst me before the foundation of the world.

		(25)	O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have
known 					thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

		(26)	And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that
the 					love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in
them.

	Now, went a little further than I needed to, but, it’s all right. 
Now, you’ll notice here, that in verse 19, He said,

		(19)	And for their sakes I sanctify myself …

	And then, down here in 24, He said, 

		(24)	… that they may behold my glory, …

13.	  He said, that they may be where I am.  Now, you’ll notice right
here, that even as the individual, has an irrevocable experience with
God, which cannot be altered, there is not one that will be lost.  But
every single one, is going to be with Him.  He now to the individual He
said, so in the Spiritual connotation, “You must be born again, it’s
a spiritual rebirth.” But when He talks about these standing here, He
is not necessarily talking only about the rebirth, though, that is
involved in this.  He’s talking about actually, from this point on, to
the Resurrection and eternally to the White Throne, past the Millennium,
into New Jerusalem.  There is no time when the Bride, will not be with
Him.  

 	 It’s as He said, “As they were angels, always beholding My
Father’s face.” If this is true, then before we get our theophanies
they are already there beholding Him.  And we identified with Him.  How
are you going to get away from it?  See?  A lot of people can’t
understand, about how what is with preachers, I guess, more than it is
with a lot of people.  You know, because you’re home all this time,
they can be home with their wives, …and I guess women said to my
wife…  “I don’t know how you stand it.”  Well, I don't know how
to tell I could understand being away from her.  I’m not going to ask
her a question, because she stands being away from me.  See, that
wouldn’t be polite.  Answer is,  she can’t stand it, either. 
That’s the way it is with this.  See? Because of this union, which He
relates to marriage.  He said, “It’s a mystery of marriage.”  That
tremendous oneness, and a compatibility there.  See?  

14.   All right.  To get a picture, what we’re talking about, vertical
and horizontal.  And I’ve been using this is in the illustration so
far in this respect.  We’re going to go to the Book of Acts 2:2-8, and
trace it from the beginning.  And it talks about them all being in the
same place at the same time, and one accord.  

		

		(2)	And suddenly there came a sound from heaven as of a rushing mighty

                        wind, and it filled all the house where they
were sitting.

		(3)	And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and
it sat

                        upon each of them.

		(4)	…all filled with the Holy Ghost, …speak with other tongues,
the Spirit 					gave them utterance.

		

		(5)       And there were dwelling at Jerusalem devout Jews, … men,
out of every

                        nation under heaven.

		(6) 	…was noised abroad, the multitude came together, and were
confounded, 					because that every man heard them speak in his own
language.

		(7)	…all amazed and marvelled, saying, Behold, are not all these 			
		Galilaeans?

		(8) 	And how hear we every man in our own tongue, …

	All right.  Let’s take a look at verse 3.  And It said, 

		(3)	And there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and
it 						sat upon each of them.

 	Now, what I’m understanding here, that the actual truth of the
matter is that there was one cloud of fire that came.  And from that
cloud of fire, there came down tongues, and sat upon each of them.  In
other words, there was one Pillar of Fire.  And that’s what you’re
going to get anyway.  There’s not a lot of Pillars of Fire, there’s
only one.  So therefore, it’s out of that Pillar of Fire, there’s
going to come the tongues of fire.  And that’s all it will be is
tongues signifying it’s a portion.  See?  And you’ll notice on the
tape, where Bro. Branham preached in Albuquerque, he saw the Holy Spirit
come in tongues of fire, sitting upon people, and going in them.  I’m
almost sure it’s Albuquerque, I don’t think it’s Santa Fe. 
Preached two times there, The Full Gospel Businessmen, to my knowledge. 


15.	All right.  Now, one Cloud, and licks of fire descending upon each
one.  Verse 4.

		(4)	And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, …

	Which is exactly right.  Now, each individual, first of all was filled.
 Then corporately, they were all filled.  

		(3)	(For) there appeared unto them cloven tongues like as of fire, and
It sat upon

                        each (individual.)  

	Then It says, 

		(4)	… all (were) filled …

  	 So therefore, there’s an individual filling, that makes up the
corporal.  Every single person was filled, and there was not one, that
was not filled.  So therefore, every member of the body of the Lord
Jesus Christ, is full of the Holy Ghost.  Now, there were none that were
not filled, in order to become a part of Him, and a part of, and a part
with, each other.  To be one with Him, and be one with each other, it
takes the baptism with the Holy Ghost.  Now we see this without
variance.  In other words, it’s never changed.  One cannot be a part
of the spiritual Christ, and the physical Christ, without this personal
baptism of the Holy Spirit.  Now the reason I say physical, and
spiritual, is very important.  Because, your baptism with the Holy
Ghost, is a Spiritual part.  But there is a physical part, which is the
body of Jesus Christ.  It is not spiritual.  It is mystical, but, it is
not spiritual.  See?  

16.	  In other words, your bodies are physical, and they always will be.
 So therefore, when you die, the Holy Spirit, takes leave.  He has
already quickened you, putting a sign upon you, that if you’re reduced
to a little thimble full of gas, He will raise you up.  But He is not
there.  He has gone back.  The Spirit goes back to God who gave It.  You
see?  So, there’s a spiritual thing.  And there is a physical thing,
in here.  You can’t be a part of Him, by joining a church, or by being
baptized into water. Or being baptized in the local assembly.  

	That’s what the Baptist's do.  That’s what the Church of Christ
does.   That’s what the Catholics do.  They are all doing it.  And you
cannot be baptized into a doctrinal formula, or into some kind of a good
moral life.  You see?  It is a rebirth.  And it must be by the baptism
with the Holy Ghost, which places you in Jesus Christ.  There is no
place where the Bible teaches, you are placed in assembly by being
baptized with the Holy Ghost.  If you are baptized with the Holy Ghost,
you will assemble yourselves.  Now, that’s a different thing entirely.
 And in the physical, you’ll pay tithes.  That’s another thing
entirely.  

17.	 Now, we go to verses 4-7. [Acts] And It says:

		(4)	…all filled…began to speak…as the Spirit gave them
utterance.

	And there were these people there who heard these languages.  And my
goodness me, they were all amazed.  

	Now, what we see in the first portion, is the vertical.  See?  What we
see here in the second portion, is the horizontal.  In other words, now
the Holy Spirit begins to manifest.  And at that time, it was necessary
that He manifest in that particular way, for they were speaking their
own native language.  And the Holy Ghost turned those words right
around, and put them into thirteen different languages.  I counted them.
 Now, you say, “Bro. Vayle, there’s a whole lot more there.” 
There’s where you’re wrong, because some of those people spoke the
same language.             I looked it up.  Thirteen languages,
…haw…just think of one thing. The United States is the thirteenth
chapter in the Book of Revelation. That's where she ends up.  They went
away from God.  

 	 Now, first manifests or reveals Himself to the individual.  And then,
the members on the horizontal level, manifest Him who come to them,
…they manifest Him, that’s the Holy Spirit…that comes to them in
the vertical.  Or except a man be born again, or born from above, he
cannot see the kingdom of God.  Except a man be born again, he cannot
live, or walk in that Spirit.  That’s an individual thing.  But once
it’s in the individual, the qualitative characteristics of the Holy
Spirit, begin working out here.  You see?

18.	Now, let’s go to chapter 2:37-41 

		(37)	Now when they heard (these things), they were pricked in their
heart, 					and said (to) the apostles, … what (are) we (going to) do?

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

	Now, 

		(39)	… the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all
that are 						afar off, even as many as the LORD our God shall call.

	Now, you’ll notice what the Holy Spirit was doing.  This is what
Jesus said would happen within them who were sealed unto Him.  When
you’re joined to Him, you will be a witness. But you’re not born
again to be a witness.  The fact is, you’re born again, to be united
with Him, then you become a witness.  And the witnessing is in the
horizontal. So, don’t put the horizontal in the vertical.  See?  Now,
you’ll understand more as we go along. Keep it where it belongs.  See?
 Now, you notice right here, what It says.  What is the first thing that
Peter did?  The first thing that Peter did, was go to the Word in the
revelation.  ‘Repent and be baptized, everyone of you.’  And as Bro.
Branham said to the Catholic person, “Yes, I will forgive sins the way
Peter did, “Repent and be baptized.”  See?  Now, there is that
beautiful horizontal.  

19.	 Now with it, [Acts 2:] 46-47.  

		(46)	And they, continuing daily with one accord in the temple, and
breaking 

                        bread from house to house, (ate) their meat with
gladness and singleness

                        of heart,

		(47)     And praising (the Lord), and having favour with all the
people. …

  	 Now listen.  That doesn’t come…rather, the Holy Ghost doesn’t
come in order for you to have that.  You will have that, if you’re
full of the Holy Ghost.  So that’s the qualitative characteristic
that’s lying within Him. That’s what you’ll be inspired to do. 
That’s what’s going to happen.  And It said, “They continued daily
in the temple.  Breaking bread from house to house.  In other words,
they took the Lord’s supper.  Bro. Branham said concerning the
Lord’s supper, he said, “Branham Tabernacle, you do wrong.”  He
said, “You think you have this just  once a month, and actually they
could.  But (he said) back in those days, they did it every day.” 
See?  In other words, …the Holy Spirit, will manifest in the
horizontal in a certain way, if you’ve been attached properly to the
vertical.

	Now listen, we’re not saying that this can’t happen in the last
time end-time church.  They can be just as happy.  Bro. Branham said
“Why the Mohammedans have just the same psychology, and be just as
happy.”  And the people they can have just as many miracles and all
those things.  They can take the Lord’s Supper, wash feet, have long
hair, and all those things. But of course, there is one thing they
didn’t have the Word. That's why I showed you this morning on
identifying …how to identify the Holy Spirit, which life they really
had.  But let’s face it. Let’s face this fact, that even the
anointing, which is not the true baptism, will bring all these things. 
So, the true baptism with the Holy Ghost, will not throw them to one
side.  But will place them properly.  You see?  So therefore, there is
not a great revival of gifts.  The revival means, 'that the life has
been resurrected'.  And Bro. Branham said, “We’ve had a spiritual
resurrection from creeds and dogmas.”  You see? 

 

20.	All right.  Let’s go a little further here. That was the last part
of 47.

		(47)	…And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be
saved.

	Now, you’ll notice what the horizontal did.  The horizontal, brought
these people who were ordained, into the vertical.  Then they went out
with the vertical, in the horizontal, and brought more people to the
vertical.  In other words, they became witnesses, they were not given
the Holy Ghost in order to become witnesses.  But when they received the
Holy Ghost, they did become witnesses.  In other words, you don’t talk
to become a baby.  You become a baby, then, you talk.  Don’t get the
manifestation, and the attributes out here, get the Person.  That’s
what           A. B. Simpson finally found out, he said, that once it
was the gift, but now, it’s the Giver.  Bro. Branham said concerning
gifts, he said, “I give you my pen.” He said, “It doesn’t mean,
I give you myself, it means I give you a gift.” 

 	Many people say, “I’ve got the Holy Ghost, I speak in tongues.” 
That is not true.  If you do have the Holy Ghost, you will speak in
tongues, but tongues is not the Holy Ghost.” They say, "How will they
speak in tongues? Bro. Branham said, "There'll come a time when you will
not be able to utter the praises of what’s in your heart.  So, He
gives you that expression."  That’s why people speak in tongues if
they’re truly born again. Doesn’t mean they’re born again, because
they speak in tongues. Why you see, a parrot can talk.  Does that mean
it’s a human being?  You’d have to be really born again to believe
that one.  

21.	Notice, Acts 8:14-17 

		(14)	Now when the apostles which were at Jerusalem heard that (the 			
		Samaritans) had received the word of God, they sent unto them 					
Peter and John:

		(15)	Who, when they were come down, prayed for them, that they might 	
			receive the Holy Ghost:

		(16)     (For as yet he was fallen upon none of them: only they were
baptized 					in the name of the Lord Jesus.)

		(17) 	Then laid they their hands on them, and they received the Holy
Ghost.

	Notice, you’ll see here, that what was in the horizontal, had come
into the vertical.  And the vertical gave a testimony to the rebirth. 
To the baptism with the Holy Ghost.  But at that time, these people had
to have the laying on of hands, in order to go into the vertical.  So
therefore, what did they do?  Why if you’ve got a real vertical in
your life, you’ll point to the real vertical.  How can a man full of
the Holy Ghost then testify to a pope, and say “Hail Mary’s” and
join a church and everything else, and have their own water baptism? 
Come on!  That’s asinine.  See what I’m talking about now?  You’ve
got to get your vertical.  And when the vertical is there, it’ll
always come back to the vertical. See? It won’t come out here in the
wrong horizontal. No way.  See?  

22.	All right.  Go a little further. Acts 13:46-48

		(46)	Then Paul and Barnabas waxed bold, and said, It was necessary
that the

                        word of God should first have been spoken to
you: (and) seeing (you) 					put it from you, and judge yourselves
unworthy of everlasting life, lo, 					we turn to the Gentiles.

		(47)     For so hath the Lord commanded us, saying, I have set thee to
be a light 

                        of the Gentiles, …

	Now, Paul didn’t say that Jesus was a light to the Gentiles.  He said
that he was a light to the Gentiles.  See?  That’s why those seven
spirits before the throne, those seven messengers, also called seven
lamps.  Now….  well, that’s how the Holy Ghost comes by a lamp.  But
who’s a lamp?  The churches?  No.  The lamp was in the midst of the
church. The light comes to the churches.  The Light comes from the life.
 Now.

	

 		(48)     … the Gentiles heard this, they were glad, and glorified
the word

                        of the Lord: and as many as were ordained to
eternal life believed.

		(49)	And the word of the Lord was published throughout all the region.

 	Now, notice what happened, the vertical goes into the horizontal. 
They say alright now it’s time for the Gentiles to come in.  That’s
the Word of the Lord.  So therefore, they can come into the vertical. 
They get the same experience, and they go out in the repetition.  See?  

23.	 Now, God adding members.  Ephesians 2:18-22, this is that church
where Paul said, “Do you have the Holy Ghost? ”  They said, "don’t
even hear about Him."  		

	Well he said, "If  you haven’t heard about Him, then you haven’t
got Him.”  

		(18)	For through him we both have access by one Spirit unto the
Father.

		(19) 	Now therefore (you) are no more strangers and foreigners, but
fellow 

                        citizens with the saints, and of the household
of God;

		(20)     And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and
prophets, Jesus

                        Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

		(21)     In whom all the (whole) building fitly framed together
groweth unto a

                        holy temple in the Lord:

	Now notice, It says the whole building grows.  See?  

		(22) 	In whom ye also are builded together for a habitation of God
through 					the Spirit.

	Baptism with the Holy Ghost makes you a candidate.  Baptism with the
Holy Ghost joins you to God.  Makes you not only a candidate, but makes
you an actual member, a living stone of the true temple of God. You see?
 Which we’re heading up for New Jerusalem.  

24.	 Now, let’s go back to Acts 1:8 again, which is a great favorite,
often quoted verse. by people showing that this is the evidence of being
filled with the Holy Spirit.  

		(8)	But ye shall receive power, after that the Holy Ghost is come upon
you:

                        (that’s dunamis, you'll) be witnesses unto me
both in Jerusalem, Judaea

                        and Samaria, and unto the uttermost part of the
earth.

 	 Sure, but you’ve got to get the Holy Ghost first.  See?  And
that’s not what He’s given for, but that’s what you will do.  See?
 Just like you eat food, it’s to give you energy.  Now, the food
itself contains the energy, and that energy goes to your body.  I
don’t know how it’s going to work.  Some of you may chop wood, some
of you may read a book, some maybe go out and play tennis, some may play
football, what can we do?  But you’ve got the energy.  So, it is here.
 But you’ve got to have it.  See?  Then what the manifestation is, it
can be any which way.  People don’t want to recognize that
manifestation.  Let me show you something here.  When you get all fired
up about gifts, you got to talk in tongues, you got to do this, you got
to do that.  I’m trying to just tie you right down tonight.  Smarten
you right up.  I tried to do it before, maybe it didn’t get across to
you.  

25.	 In Romans 12:4-6

		(4)	… many members in one body, and all …(don’t have) the same
office:

		(5)       (And) we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one
members one

                        of another.

	That’s the thing you see right there.  That the vertical at all the
time does.  I’ll explain more of this later.  

		(6)       Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is
given to us, 					whether prophecy, let us prophesy according to the
proportion of faith; 					(or ministry)

	Now, where do you find that?  Somebody tell me what it is.  Well come
on.  You say, “I’m going to have a little room and nine gifts”. 
What about this?  Well you say, “Bro. Vayle, that ain’t the Word of
God.”  That’s what I thought you’d say.  Irenaeus the Second
Church Age messenger, said there's hundreds of gifts in the body of
Christ.  Hundreds!  Make him a liar, eh?  Go ahead and call him a liar? 
You think he was a bastard to the Word?  He was taught by Polycarp, who
was taught by John, who was taught by Jesus.  ‘For he that’s our
teacher, is he that exorteth’.  Now, tell me about that gift.  Or
‘he that giveth’, got any room for that one?  

 	These gifts here don’t bug anybody, but, you get those other gifts
without a control, they lead you night into devil power, and you won’t
even know it.  …the horizontal, then they claim they’ve got the
horizontal, because they’ve just got part of it.  Oh, that’s true in
a way, you do.  But it’s not all the way true.  Now It says, “Let he
that giveth with simplicity, he that ruleth with diligence, he that
showeth mercy with cheerfulness.”  And don’t be a hypocrite with
your love.  Ha!  I could blow that one.  Ain’t going to take time.
See?  Now, we can surely see, Acts 1:8 is not the evidence as some would
say.  Nor, are those gifts the evidence.  But the Life makes us soul
winners. Sure.  It makes soul winning possible.  Sets the man on fire to
win souls.  See?  That’s an attribute of a life.  

26.  Let’s go back to John 17: 21-23

		(21)	That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in
thee, …

	Now, Bro. Branham categorically said, "That oneness takes place in the
First Church Age, and in the last Church Age, into the White Throne."  

		(21)	...as thou, Father, art in me, and I in thee, that they also may
be one 					in us: the world may (know) that thou hast sent me.

		(22)    (That) the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that
they may

                       be one, even as we are one:

	Look what He’s doing.  Look what He’s doing.  He’s says,
"Everything in my person I give them, and everything that belongs to Me
as a person, I give them."  That’s why He’s got an inheritance in
the saints, that He gives us.  I’m going to talk about it sometime,
but not now.   And It’s so simple, It’ll blow your minds.  But It'll
change your life.  Bro. Branham said, “The simple things, were the
great things.”  See?  

		(23)	I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one; 

	Well, there is a perfection. The Bride's perfect.  All glorious within
and without.  No spot and no wrinkle.  Without blemish.  Immortal,
incorruptible.  Just like Jesus. Now, and also finished.  You in Him is
finished, it’s wrapped up.  And only so many get wrapped up… pardon
the expression.  All right.  

		(23)	…(and) the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast
loved 					them, as thou hast loved me.

27.  John 14:20

		(20)	At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and (you) in
me, 						and I in you. (See?)

 	  Now, the Son of man must manifest Himself in human flesh, in every
age.  Because that’s the Bride.  You say, “Where do you get that
quote?”  I got that quote right from William Branham, prophet of God. 
And I said, “Bro. Branham, what do you mean when you say, “The Son
of man revealed in human flesh?”  

	He said, “That’s the Bride in every Age.”  Son of man must be
manifest.  He must be revealed in every Age.  

28.  Now, we’ll go over to Ephesians 4:4 again.  Remember, this
happened in the First Age, and it happens again in the last Age, Alpha
and Omega.  

		(4)	There is one body, and one Spirit, even as ye are called in one
hope 					of your calling;

	Now listen, He was a …?... fellow.  He said, "You know you have one
calling.  You know you’ve got one hope."  He said, “You know that
thing.”  I want to tell you one thing, the Corinthian church missed
It.  There’s one body and one spirit, even.  See?  Even is that.  

	Now,

	

		(5) 	One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

		(6)       One God and Father of all, who is above all, and through
all, and in 					you all.

		(7)       But unto every one of us is given grace according to the
measure of the

                        gift of (God).

 	Notice he repeats that, from the Book of Romans.  In other words,
there is not one person that is not indelibly joined, and irrevocably
joined to Almighty God.  

29.  There’s not one of you doesn’t have a ministry.  But oh, the
women didn’t like it when Bro. Branham said, “You’ve got a
ministry alright. It’s to your husbands and children.”  They
couldn’t take it.  Oh, what do you want, out of life?  Women who
deserted that precept that God gave them, are out there in the world
today.  And their ERA, Equal Rights Amendment that they want down in the
States, they want the same thing that you want here, and I think they
are worse than we are down there.  They have liberated the men to have
their sex, and everything else they want.  And the woman is still the
underdog, and she’s worse off than ever.  Proving she never could
handle it.  And she never will handle it.  Because she’s got one job,
to be in love.  And the man is supposed to love her, just like Jesus
loved the Church.  

	I wonder how Adam felt, when he found out she was faluting around with
the devil.  I’m going to tell you something:  If you think nature
doesn’t abominate a woman that messes around with other men.  Albert
Pace in therapy, tells of the fact that nature, if a female goose is
dead, the male never mates again.  And he tells about two dogs,
there’s a male and a female, and evidently, she was at a certain time
when another dog came by, …and she had been bred all this time by this
one dog, this male dog… and she got down the street around another
male.   And Albert Pace in therapy says, that one looked like he had a
broken heart.  He never touched that female again.  

30.	Nature teaches these things.  Then people think they can get away
with it.  You talk about your gifts.  How many women believe their hair
is their glory?  I’m not going to ask my wife, poor kid, she has an
awful job with hers.  I'd give her a week. Look, my God, if you can’t
get your hair right.  “Put a wig on.”  Bro Branham said.  “But, if
you’re a yellow head, don’t make it a black head.  If you’re a
blackhead, don’t make it a yellow head.”  Some of you get so bound
up, you’re so Pentecostal, Nicolaitan, Laodicean, legalists.  That’s
…?...  I haven't even talked tough yet, get going later on. I get so
fed up with this legalistic, …you don’t know the horizontal from the
vertical, you don't even know Almighty God by some revelation, but
you’ve got all kinds of screwed up ideas.  You threw them in the
'mix-master. (Phfft!) They went around like that. 

	 Talk about a mess.  Where did they get it?  Right from the devil. 
Didn’t get it from God.  You know, some folk that came to see Bro.
Neville. They said, "We’re all mixed up about this doctrine on the
Christmas tree, and everything else." They talked to Bro. Neville. He
said, "I just want to tell you one thing.  Bro. Branham always walked
right down the middle of the road."  Who needs a Christmas tree?  But
who said you deny the Spirit of Christ at Christmas?  Who said you deny
His birth?  Who said, you cut this off and cut that off, as though
it’s going to make you something extra special and wonderful.  The
last thing the prophet said, “Little kids don’t understand. We’ll
help them to understand. We’ll teach them the real Spirit.”  See? 
Right down here, it tells you all about these goodies.  

31.	All right.  Holy Spirit came down.  And there’s a gift of
grace…there’s a given grace that according to the measure of the
gift of God.  Now, I want to tell you something:  The true pastor, has
got to have a certain gift, according to the measure of his gift.  In
other words, what his gift lines up to, he’s got to have what it takes
to be able to handle it, or he better quit pastoring.  The man that’s
on the road like me, has got to have it, or get out.  See?  Every single
thing in this life, you are absolutely qualified for through the baptism
with the Holy Ghost.  You’ve got everything you need, you don’t have
to look here, and look there.  You just live with God, and it’ll begin
to come through to you.  

	There’s something stirring up in there.  I want to ask you, what
stirs up women to go preaching?  What gave Mammy Crawford  a vision of
Jesus Christ, that she said it changed her life, and she went preaching?
Pentecostal hogwash!  Don’t tell me a woman was ever called to preach.
 She wasn’t.  Like Bro. Branham said, “Sure, I don’t doubt that
Amy was called to preach, that God told her to preach, because He knew
she was going to preach anyway.” Go check her life out, like I did out
in California.  I sat with a man who knew a whole bunch, Randall Hurst
was used to run around with the whole bunch of them.  Don’t tell me
that guy was a liar, because, he wasn’t.  

 	He’d call your bluff any day, and pull in his skeleton out of the
closet, and put flesh on it.  He knew her.  Sure.  You’re going to
have something to suit your gift.  You’ve got the Holy Ghost, how’re
you going to go wrong?  See?  How can a person full of the Holy Ghost
disbelieve this Message, or preach It wrong?  I want to ask you a
question.  How can it be done?  How can in the mouth of a preacher,
that's ordained of Almighty God…Bro. Branham said, this… “Once you
see this Message, that’s all you’ll see in the Word.”   And a
person can’t preach this Message in every word, there’s something
wrong with him. Get out of preaching. You say, “You’re tough Bro.
Vayle.”  Why not?  God’s tough.  See?  

32.  All right.  You’ve got the measure in there.  In other words,
division.    

		(8)	Wherefore, he (says)….

	 The 'wherefore' is because there’s one body, one spirit, one hope of
His calling, one Lord, one faith, one baptism. One Father God, through
all and in all, and so on, and the Holy Ghost came back.  He put gifts
in the church.  He put the church in order.  See?  Now He descended. 
Tells Who He is.  

	 Now, notice what It does in here.  He gives us five-fold ministries. 
And it’s a five-fold ministry, not the gift, not what lies in the pew,
although they are fully compatible with, and adjunct to, and without
them, there’s no working of the five-fold.  Don't let anybody ever
tell you, that that five-fold can operate apart from you, because it
can’t.  

 	Because if there’s no sheep, there's no shepherd. And if there's no
shepherd the sheep have a terrible time, there’s no way of getting
there since they're too dumb.  And that’s …?... The pastors are too
cute, he's just as dumb.  I'm not calling you dumb and letting the
five-fold not be dumb, the whole bunch is dumb, because they’re all
sheep.  Silly sheep as some people say.  

33.	 Now, He put these in here, authoritative with the Word. [Ephesians
4:12-13]

		(12) 	(In order to perfect) the saints, … the work of the ministry,
… the 

                        edifying of the (Spirit of God):

		(13)     (They) all come in the unity of the faith, and of the
knowledge of the

                        Son of God, unto a perfect man, unto the measure
of the stature of the 

                        fulness of Christ:

	Now listen brother/sister, there’s a vertical there.  Do you hear
what I said?  There’s a vertical there, by the Holy Ghost.  Then what
is the horizontal?  Perfect the saints.  Work out the ministries.  Help
them.  Who’s been shooting you a lot about gifts? Did He go in the
room with you?  Ha! “Preach it Bro. Vayle, you’ve got them by the
tail now”.  Faith, come on. Come on!           I challenge you!  
Stand beside me.  Want to argue, stand beside me, come on.  I’ll let
women do it, they could die for it.  You’ll die for it.  The prophet
said, “I’ll believe with you.”  The prophet said,  "…?... " Come
on, where is it?   Anybody can talk.  I'm not afraid, stand before me.
I'm not kidding you brother/sister. I'm not kidding you. I had a
ministry years ago, put more ministries to shame, I was called ‘a
second Branham’ in Canada.  That was a complete fool, I’d stand up
there and challenge anybody. Priest, Pentecostal, anybody else. And I
could get called a bluff too. I could call anybody’s bluff.

34.	  And I said it right, when the prophet.  Said, “You had a lot of
true discernment, but you did make mistakes.” So, I was butting into a
field, I had no right to.  How many people butt in where they don't
belong?  You’re born to your end.  If you’re called, like a
five-fold minister, you have it burning in you.  You don’t want to go,
but you’ll go.  You’ll burn to be the best wife.   You’ll burn to
be the best mother.  You’ll burn to be the best husband.  You’ll
burn to be the best provider.  You’ll burn to be the best giver. 
You’ll burn to be the best exhorter. Draw them into Jesus Christ,
you’ll burn brother/sister.  It’s not a bunch of you burning to talk
in tongues. You may talk in tongues once, and never again.  

	Prophet said, “You may prophesy once, and never again.”  The
horizontal, the edifying of the body of Christ.  The horizontal, coming
in unity of faith.  The horizontal, coming into the knowledge of Son of
God, unto a perfect man.  Unto the measure of the stature of Christ. Let
me tell you something brother/sister, I want you to get this tape…I
had seven months I never had in my life before.  And I’ve had it,
because a man rose up jealous of my ministry.  And he wants to get into
my horizontal.  That’s all I’ve got.  You will never see Lee Vayle
act like Jesus Christ.  You’ll never hear him talk like Jesus Christ. 
You’ll never see a thing about him like Jesus Christ.   But if you sit
here, and cannot see Christ when I preach this Word, there’s something
wrong with you.  Because I’ve got a gift.  And I’ve got a spirit on
me.  It’s called ‘the Spirit of prophecy’.  But they don’t want
it.  

35. The prophet said, “Lee, you’re just like me.”  

	And I could have said, in my facetious way, sure. “You’ve got two
eyes, I’ve got two eyes, one nose, what else is new?”  I said,
“What does it mean Bro. Branham?”  

	He said, “I’ve got a little gift of healing, that nobody wants it.
You’ve got a little gift of teaching, that nobody wants it.”  I’ve
been cut to ribbons.  Because they don’t want my vertical.  That’s
what’s wrong today.  They want Bro. Branham’s vertical.  Now, they
want the horizontal, only one part of it.  Heal the sick.  Heal the
sick.  Heal the sick.  Do this.  Do that.  Come here.  Do this.  Come
here.  Do that.  But when the full Vertical came on, which was that
ordained revealed Word that man began to teach.   Even proven.  In the
horizontal, proven, that the vertical was what he said It was.  

	They didn’t want his horizontal, which was revealed Word of Almighty
God.  You’re sitting here tonight, as you sat this morning, you’re
going to have to go backwards. Not because Lee Vayle said so.  Ain’t
no way, you’re not going to do it.  Because this changed my life. 
I’ve never been sicker, in my life.  Never more miserable, what I’ve
gone through.  Mentally, physically, let me tell you something, the
revelation came through. And for the first time in my life, I knew that
there was one God.  I could talk about It before, like you talk about
It.  I could sing about It.  But tonight I know that there is one God,
and I know His Name.  See?  True.

36.	Growing up, to the stature of the fulness of Christ.  What is
Christ?  He’s the Word.  This is the hour of that full Word.  How do I
know?  Because It said, “Henceforth being no more children tossed to
and fro”. [Eph 4:14] For the first time, through all the ages, we know
who Melchesidec is, and why.  We know when he became.  What he wasn’t
before.  We know these things were Christ, by God Himself is bringing
everything under the feet of Jesus, in subjection.  Putting Him in the
Headship.  I will …?... and I tell what’s going on now.  Where God
first of all lead me by Spirit, to know what’s in the heavens.  Then
He bypassed the earth, and came right to the Word, and said, “Here’s
what’s going on now, in the Word.”  

	I’m not boasting.  I’m not telling anybody.  I'll leave here
tomorrow morning and leave you, God bless you.  I’ve got no problem. 
Do you think for one minute I’m trying to make Lee Vayle somebody
you've got to hear him?  You done missed Lee Vayle a million miles.  I
want to go home. I got a nice home now for the first time. I’ll likely
have to leave it, and sell it for a loss.  Two deep freezers full of
goodies.  Air conditioned, hardly costs pennies to run, basement full of
wood…burning wood.  Nice beds, everything, nobody buzzing in my ears. 
Bugging me, anything else, here it is just go on home. Go home, what
for?  “Carried about by every wind of doctrine.” [Eph 4:14] What you
got your sails set for, wind of doctrine, or Word of God?  It’s all
fine if it’s in the Word.  “Cunning craftiness, by the sleight of
men, they lie in wait to deceive.” [Eph 4:14]  

37.	 I told you a long time ago I preached this for twenty solid years,
you still make the Bible a liar.  You don’t believe that men would lie
and wait.  You’re too nice.  Whole bunch are just too nice, you
can’t believe these things.  Ha!  Wake up!  Do you think the devil’s
changed?  Huh…Eve wasn’t raped.  You’ll go on believing it, unless
you change.   Where do you think those apostles were like when they came
by, Bro. Branham said, “They call them false apostles.”  He said,
“My, that was flat.” That was pretty flat, I like flat things. Yep. 
Why you say, "What  do you mean calling us false?"  

	

	Why he said, "You don't  say what Paul said."  Why didn't they say what
the prophet said? 

But holding the truth in love, grow up unto Him. [Eph 4:15] The vertical
that God gives these men, goes into the horizontal, and brings you right
up to the vertical.  

	That’s exactly where Bro. Branham was.  He was the one with the
Vertical.  That put him into the horizontal, and brought us right into
the Vertical.  See? Growing up unto it, not into Him.  You’re in Him.
"…which is the head, even Christ: From whom the whole body fitly
joined together and compacted by that which every joint supply…" [Eph
4:15-16] What does it tell you?  Look at it here.  You know that Bro.
Branham explained the whole thing of the pyramid.   Man, that’s not
going to come to good. You know something, let me tell you flat.   Roy
Borders and the whole bunch of them, made a mistake on that.  Nobody got
the pyramid right.  Let me get the thing here so you can really see it. 
A little flange up here, he said it sits on. (I won't worry about that)
That’s not too good, but good enough.  They all make a mistake.  I
think it's page forty-seven, and I’m not sure now…of "Stature."   

38.  He said, “See the little lines up there?”  Why is it in there?
Why did they leave them out?  He said, “They were there.”  Well, did
he? Get the book. All right, look. [Bro. Vayle demonstrates on a drawing
board] This last group here...everything poured into al the Ages comes
down here. This was the cornerstone.  Age number one, right?  And
Pentecost.  Down here, right here these fifty-three years little
platforms, Bro. Branham said.“It came down here in a portion, came
here in a portion, and came here in a portion.”  And this would’ve
came all down.  This is a million times greater than Pentecost. I’m
going to have to ask Dave Mamalis in, why did he …?... Where did he
get it?  I want to ask Dick Lambert …?...  why does he believe that,
nobody’s got the latter rain, just because he hasn’t? Just like
Coleman didn’t have Light for nine years, nobody had it. Look
brother/sister, I don’t have certain things, that doesn’t mean,
someone hasn’t got it.  The prophet himself said, “If we’re not
Bride, there’s a Bride out there.”  See?  

39.  All right, look it here: everything the joint supplieth, here’s
this pyramid.  And let’s just leave the it here.  Is growing up…
growing up…growing up…growing up.   Now He’s up here, is not
growing into Him.  This is already He being formed, and since the Head
which is flesh came out of the grave, this has got to come out of the
grave.  So therefore, it is growing up.  

	Now notice, it’s a growth where it’s growing up unto Him.  Notice
what I said, “It’s a growth, and you’re growing up unto Him.” 
Is that what I said? Is that what the Bible said? You still don’t get
it.  Some of you.  Growth, not seven, zoom it grows. So, at the
end-time, it’s a growth.  See?  

	All right.  Grow up unto Him.  From whom the whole body fitly…fitly,
pyramid, can’t put a razor in it.  Can’t put a razor, …that’s
how she is in the horizontal from the vertical.  She is indissoluble,
and she is absolutely unable to disintegrate, or be separated.  No way. 
Now, “From whom the whole body fitly joined together and compacted by
that which every joint supplieth,” [Eph 4:16] this is compacted.  In
other words, the cement in here, what is it that the cement, by that
which is given you, is the Holy Spirit, and in the Greek, I find he is
joined to the Lord, cemented to God, is one Spirit.  There is a cement
from God.  And there is a cement with us, and to each other.  According
to the effectual measure, of every part.  

40.   Now notice, every single member, every single person, every one of
us has a measure from God. And this thing in itself, everyone of this is
a measure.  Everything measured to God.  God in a measure…God in a
measure…God in a measure…God in a measure.  Oh, God at the end-time,
 immeasurable.  See?  No wonder It’s a million times past Pentecost. 
What do I know Pentecostal's for?  Shhh…I couldn’t stand that.  

	 All right.  You notice, It says, “And it maketh increase of the body
unto the edifying of itself in love.” [Eph 4:16] Love is what? The
last Capstone God, Himself.  Ha… Listen, these churches talk about,
one fellow up there in New York, he talks about “Bringing brotherly
kindness.”  I’ve got to laugh at him.  Bro. Branham brought
brotherly kindness.  Seven Church Age.  He said,  "Looking for love."
I’m not looking for love.   Love is here!  He is here, He's love. What
are you talking about?  Bro. Branham said, “All the time looking back,
all the time looking forward, you don’t even know what’s going
on.”  Yeah.  You still love me?  

41.  Now listen, I preach fast and hard, and I know I confuse you at
certain times.  But I'm going to tell you it’s all on tape. You
listen, if you can’t find what I’m saying, you come talk to me,
don’t write me, a letter, I’m not answering anybody’s letter. I
don’t want you to write to me, you tell him.  And He’ll be in touch.
If he can get me.  And I’ll do my best to answer it.  I know what
I’m saying tonight.  There’s no doubt.  I tell you, it might not get
across to you, the way I want it to.  I don’t know.  All right.  Where
do you go from here?  

	All right, where do we go from there? All right, there is just no way
that one can be a true child of God, unless he’s filled with the
Spirit of God.  No way. “Except you have the Spirit of Christ, you are
none of His.” [Rom 8:9] And if you had the Spirit of God, you are one
of His.  You take the 'no' away, and you leave the one.  Okay. Not one
can be added to the body of Christ, and can become part of the body of
Christ, outside of the Baptism with the Holy Ghost.  

	Oh, brother, just two pages gone.  I’ll read my notes, and you go
home.  As every human body member… that’s speaking of the
physical...as every human body member such as, each arm and leg and eye,
heart.  There’s a part of the body, because of that specific kind of
life, in that body.  So, is each member, a member of Christ.  Because
God’s own life, and that of the Bride, is one.  It’s the same thing.

42.  Ephesians 5:30 

	(30)	For we are members of his body, of his flesh, and of his bones.

     If it isn't for His life in us, we are not a part.  For each cell,
must be of that one Life.  Every cell.  Now, I’m going to prove it to
you.  And in 1 Corinthians 15:37-39

	(37)	And that which thou sowest, thou sowest not that body that shall
be,

                        but bare grain, it may chance of wheat, or of
some other grain:

     That’s the germ, see, that's there.  

	(38)	But God giveth it a body as it hath pleased him, and to every seed
his

                        own body.

	(39) 	All flesh is not the same flesh: but there is one kind of flesh
of men, 

                        another flesh of beasts, another of fishes, and
another of birds.

	(40)	...celestial bodies, terrestrial bodies: glory of the celestial
one, glory 				of the terrestrial is another.

	(41) 	...one glory of the sun, … (and so on.)

43.  Let’s go back to Genesis 1:12, this is the thing that Bro.
Branham brought up to us.  Now:

	(12)	And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after
his kind,

                        the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in
itself, after his kind: …  

     That word is ‘sperma’ that which brings forth the life.  And so
therefore, brother/sister, the life of God, is in that Bride.  And the
life of God, is in human flesh.  See?  It’s got to be that same life. 


44.  Now, I’m going to a premise that is perfectly scriptural.  Over
here, from what I said, in 1 Corinthians 12: 15-27, just the two verses.
 

	(15)	If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the
body;

                        is it therefore not of the body?

       Now, you are the body of Christ, and members in particular.  Now,
the people here were in confusion. Due to confusion…listen…due to
confusion the Corinthians would not acknowledge, would not confess, nor
testify, and witness to the Reality of the life that made them members
of Christ.  Now, you didn’t hear what I said, and you’re not getting
it.  I’m going to tell you again.  I read two verses: 

	(15)	If the foot shall say, I am not the hand, (so I ain't) of the
body;

                        is it not of the body?

       Now, you are the body of Christ, and everyone a particular
member.  You’re a particular member whether you feel it, or not.  Or
you’ve got a manifestation or not, that you think should be the
manifestation.  I ask you a question, concerning your hand.  Do you have
to educate your hand, or, does your hand respond because of the mind? 
Now there’s a certain education in there.  I admit it.  But your hand
responds to the mentality.  And the mentality responds to a life.  And
Bro. Branham said, “The mind was a part of the spirit, and the spirit
part of the mind.”  So, you get the mind of Christ, the spirit of
Christ, you’re going to have the function there, where the body is
going to produce. Something's going to produce.  

45.  Now listen, due to confusion, the Corinthians would not
acknowledge, would not confess nor testify, to the witness of the
reality of the life that made them members of Christ.  Because they said
this: “I’m not the hand, so therefore I’m not of the body.”
Well, if I can't preach I’m not of the body.  You say, because I
can’t run my husband, I’m not of the body.  You’re telling one
thing, that you’re denying the life of Christ.  Because you’re a
member of the body, because you’ve got the life of Christ.  Now
where’s your gifts as far as faith is concerned?  I’m not against
it, but I want to tell you some things here brother/sister, to smarten
you up.  

     The prophet of God, said, “the gifts (as it were) were put on the
shelf.”  Who put them on the shelf?  God put them on the shelf!  Then
go take them off.  You get so mucked up and worried.  Yeah, some of you
looking very worried. Smarten up.  Smarten up, get the look of
puzzlement off of your face.  Who put it on the shelf?  Did the prophet?
 Let’s settle this a second.  I told you before.  A certain guy in
South Africa…he’s dead…that makes me very happy, because he made
Bro. Branham the filth of the earth.  Said, he was drunk while driving
and got killed. So, if you think I am going to regret it, you don’t
know Lee Vayle.  If the man killed my son, I’d have an awful job
loving him.  Maybe I should, but let’s be honest.  See I’m not up
here some stuffed shirt, that’s going to tell you a lot of junk.  

46.  Now listen. That bird, went to Charlie Fetter, in Harrisburg Pa.,
and he prophesied to Charlie, that he would sell his motel.  The motel
sold just like he said, and Charlie got carried away.  I said to
Charlie, “I want to ask you one question before you get carried out
and they can't carry you back.”  I was mad, but they couldn't quite
tell him that.  “I want to ask you a question Bud,  did this man’s
prophecy make the building sell? Or was God just letting him in on a
secret, that the building would sell?”  Aha. What a difference.  Now
you see what I’m talking about.  These Corinthians got carried away in
a horizontal, that God warns you to look out for.  And He said because
at the end-time as it happened in the First Age, the last days, two days
it  happened in both.  First time, and end-time.  The anointing could
come upon anybody.  And when this anointing came as It did, they begin
vying with each other, and they were confused.  And they lost faith in
God, and the Blood.  

47.  Shall I read you something?  Thank you, I was going to read It
anyway.  I know what I’m talking about.  [Hebrews 6:]

	(4)	… it is impossible for those who were once enlightened, and have 
				tasted of the heavenly gift, and were made partakers of the Holy
Ghost,

	(5)	 ....tasted the good word of God, and the powers of the world to

                         come,

	(6)	 (Having fallen) away, (it is impossible) to renew them again unto 

                         repentance; seeing they crucify to themselves
the Son of God …

      They deny the Blood.  They deny life.  They said, “We’re not
members, we don’t have some great thing going for us.” You go where
you want to go brother/sister.  I know where I'm going. I’m trying to
go.  They witnessed to gifts that separated them.  The Holy Ghost does
not separate.  They were not aware of Matthew 10:32, which I read to you
this morning, out of the original expanded Greek. “… Therefore,
(everyone of them will be of such character, that) he will confess Me
before men. (And the realization, and of and testimony of, or to His
Oneness with Me.) I will also confess (him) before My Father, (who) is
in heaven.” [Mt 10:32] In the realization and testimony of My Oneness
with Him. 

        In other words, when you answer back to God the right way, He
answers back to you.  Now, they're answering back to God, and the Word
came back, "Shut up, you’re all messed up." What messed them up?  They
couldn’t understand the vertical into the horizontal.  They got
carried away with gifts, which was in the vertical, which was an
attribute.  And they left  the horizontal out entirely, which is the
Holy Ghost baptism.  I want to ask you a question:  How many of you
people have moaned and groaned, and sobbed and howled, because you
didn’t have something wonderful.  I told you time after time, until I
understood 'The Anointed Ones at the End Time.   And I was taught
privately, before the sermon ever came out, which saved my soul life
…not my soul…but my soul life.  

48.  Which I was willing to ...?....  And I told my wife, “Look, it
seems to me everybody gets drunk, and messes with women, and defrauds
people gets a wonderful gift from God.”  I didn’t know that was a
Scripture.  Old David stood back and couldn’t understand why the
wicked prophet said, "I could feel like a big bay tree."  It sure cut
him down too.  I said, to my dear wife, “Well honey, what I'm going to
do, (I said) it looks like I really have to go ahead and leave you and
get a brunette, because, you’re blonde, and I got a really do it up
brown, get myself a Cadillac, and go live in adultery, and mess
everybody up, and then maybe God will bless me.”  What did it?  Gifts.
 What did it?  Gifts.  Come on be honest with me!  Come on, don’t be a
bunch of poker faces!  What did it?  Gifts! 

       Well you say, “Bro. Vayle, gifts is new.” You’re right, a
misunderstanding did, in believing the vertical.  How in the world, can
a gift and sin go together?  I saw that in Canada years ago, with a
bunch of people in Alberta.  I was part for a while, I broke away.  And
I preached a sermon on, ‘Thy sceptre O God, the sceptre of
righteousness.’  I said, “If you’re going to have these
manifestations, you better live a life.”  This guy living with women,
and dirty double dealing, and rotten dealing and everything else.  
Lying, chiselling, gouging.  Living like the devil.  He got a ministry,
bless your heart, it just about raised the dead.  I knew something was
radically wrong.  Then I get down in the States, and I see a better type
of boys. And I see the rotten type of boy.  Then I figure the good boys,
the few good boys got it, and I'm trying to be a good boy, and I can't
get it, and the rotten boys always get it, left me rotten.  Like your
Leo Desrocher said, “Nice guys finish last.”  And Bro. Branham
taught the truth, and I got liberated.  Now, this is what helped me set
the Church in order.  See?

49.  Now, well, Hebrews 10:23 

	(23)	 Let us hold fast the (confession,) of our faith (not profession, 
				but confession) without wavering; (because faithful is He that 				
made the promise;) 

And back to Matthew 16:18 which you know all about It.  

	(18)	… thou art Peter, and upon this rock I will build my church; 			
	and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it.  

      See, there you are.  Paul had to set the Church in order.  Now,
let me ask you a question:  What did Paul set the Church in order with? 
The Word of God. (Yeah)  Bro. Branham sat in that building that night,
and he cut this woman down for speaking in tongues, and they said, “Oh
brother, you were terribly wrong.”  He said, “How could I be wrong
preaching the Word of God?”  “Oh, but you had the old manna, she had
the new.”  Ha!  Women preachers. People ask: “What church do you
belong to?”  

50.  Well it can’t be Methodist, Baptist, Pentecostal.  But it’s got
to be Hebrews 12:22-24.  

	(22)	But (you) are come unto mount Sion, and unto the city of the
living 				God, heavenly Jerusalem, to an innumerable company of angels,

                        (messengers)

	(23) 	To the general assembly and church of the firstborn, (that’s
why 					people like to call themselves ‘general assembly’ and
church of the 				first born. Ha! Because they say so?) which are
written in heaven, 					(tell me, show me which church is written in
heaven. Phfft!) to God 				the Judge of all, to spirit of just men made
perfect,

     Listen, that’s happening now:  

	(24)     (That) Jesus the mediator of the new covenant, and the blood
of 					sprinkling, that speaketh better things (than) Abel.

      	New covenant.  What’s His name?   Melchesidec.  We’re just
about there, It says:  

	(25)	(At that time don't) refuse him that speaketh… (You see?)

       Now, that’s the church.  It is the same Corinthian spirit, that
carries men away to self, instead of God.  And self importance, and
‘big me’ in this very hour.  Now with the opening of the seals in
Revelation 22:8-17.  The Church is now called The Bride.  Yep. Enjoying
the love and Presence of God and loving Him back.  Not trying to compete
with Him.  Ha.  

51.  Bro. Branham came to Lima, Ohio, there's some people phoned me and
she said, “Bro. Vayle, I want you to pray for my husband, he’s dying
of cancer.”  She said, Clarence was dying of cancer.

      I said, “Throw him in the car and bringing him to Lima, Bro.
Branham’s coming here.” 

	She said, “I said he’s dying.” 

	 I said, “I know, that's why you're bring him, he’s going to die
anyway, bring him!”  

 

  She brought him, first man in the prayer line.  Bro. Branham stood
back, shadow across him, with that funny looking thing, he said,
"shadowed to death with cancer."  Stumbled forward reached his hands,
and he said, "Pray." That night, he had a bowel movement, all the cancer
came away.  Within a few days, his face was nice and light, perfectly
healed.  So, here they are,   I thought it might be nice if they sat at
the table with us for dinner.  And my wife…she shouldn’t have done
it, but she’s so nice to everybody…I got to just slap her down to
stop making her be nice, because she messes things up. With the
nicest...let me tell you women you have to get out of that lousy spirit
you got. So, she said, "So this lady sat by Bro. Branham." So, she
plunks her there. 

52.  Oh God, have mercy.  She didn't reveal Bro. Branham, she thought
they were...how wonderful she was, "Oh, everything Jesus did." And  Bro.
Branham pretty soon looked like some little tin-foil jack ass, that had
nothing to do. "Oh, my dear sister, couldn't you lay hands on me and
pray?" Ha!  Tired of God.  Big mouth babe sit there.  You’re wrong
gal, you’re wrong. Yep.  I’ll tell her she’s wrong.  You think I
don't, I do.  I’ll tell you one thing, our marriage is a good
marriage, it's ninety percent is due to her… I ain't going to let her
have the whole hundred percent. [laughter]  Now, I love her.  I love her
and she knows.  She felt terrible ever since she's done it.  Yup.  

   	Now with the opening of the Seals, Revelation 22:  (She’ll never
do that again, she knows better.  Yup.  Ha.) "You’ve got to wait until
New Jerusalem," said  Bro. Branham, except moving in the Resurrection.
Yep, and it doesn’t matter who sits with him.  It’s all going to be
goody, goody, goody.)  Okay,  

	(8)	And I John saw (and heard) these things, When I heard and seen, 			
	I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel which (told me) 			
	these things.

	(9)       (He said, don't you) it not: for I am thy fellowservant, and
brethren 					the prophets, and keep the sayings of this book: worship
God.

	(10)     And he (said) unto me, Seal not the sayings of the prophecy of
this book: 

                        for the time is at hand.

 53.   When the Seals become unsealed, you don’t dare ever seal it up
again.  So, why do people try to seal the Book and say, “This is got
to come, and that’s got to come, and this is got to come.”  It’s
unsealed!  The prophet said, “There’s enough right there, when those
seals are open to you and me.  Taking us right to the Rapture.”
Certain it will. Because,  It'll take us to the Resurrection.  And
there's something Bro. Braham's got to tell us in the Resurrection.
Hallelujah, He'll tell us then.  And I believe he will.  I’m sure he
will.  Because when Jesus came back, He said He told them these things
concerning the kingdom.  All right, at this time when those Seals are
opened, this comes upon us He said: [Revelation 22] 

	(11)	He that is unjust, … he filthy, …(is) filthy still …
righteous, … 					righteous  …holy, … holy still…

	(12)      … behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give
every

                        man, according as his work shall be.

	(13)	I am Alpha and Omega, …

    He said, “What I was there, I'm here today. I came down and set
the Church in order.  I’ve come down now, but I’m going to go beyond
it.  It’s time to resurrect the Church, and bring it all under
control.”  I’m just talking about the fact that you just may be out
of the ball park on this.  You’ve got something real, let me tell you
brother/sister.  You might not even be aware of it.  It’s real just
the same.  Oh yeah.  Many times, I told  folk I don’t feel my kidney,
I ain’t got them I guess.  Well, next time I go to the bathroom, I’m
quite sure I have. I hate to be crude, might as well pin it down. Right
now I don't feel arthritis, wish it were gone. Rotten stuff is there.
Don't be a nut.   

      All right, listen…Okay.  In verse 17,

	(17)	And the Spirit and the bride say, Come…

       He calls them Bride at the last time.  The Spirit and the Bride. 
Notice, they’ve got one voice.  Bro. Branham said, “She’ll say the
same thing and she won’t even talk.”  Says who’s Bride?  

54.  Now, the Bride is Revelation 21:9-22.  And especially 22, I’m not
going to worry about the rest of them.  

	(22)	And I saw no temple therein: for the Lord God Almighty and the
Lamb 

                        are the temple of it.

     Notice, the Lord God and the Lamb.  See?  All right.  And where are
they housed? With that Bride.  See?  Yes sir.  This is where all worship
takes place.  

55.  Now, let’s go to something else here.  In Ephesians 2:19-22, Paul
does not disagree with John in what he saw. It says: 

	(19)	...(you're) no more strangers and foreigners, but fellow citizens 
				with the saints, and of the household of God;

	(20)     And are built upon the foundation of the apostles and
prophets, Jesus 				Christ himself being the chief corner stone;

	(21)	 In whom all the building fitly (joined) together groweth unto an
holy

                         temple in the Lord:

	(22) 	In whom ye also are builded together for an habitation 

       So, what's It saying?  Did he leave the Bride out?  No sir, the
Bride is that where His habitation is, because the Lamb is on the throne
above, with the Pillar of Fire above it. It all makes a holy habitation
of Almighty God. ‘My holy mount, which is Mount Zion’.  See?  Now
brother/sister, since the prophet refused to call us anything but Bride,
then, let us confess it.  For God has done it, for God has done the
calling.  We, did not do it. 

56.  Psalms 65: 1-3, now It says here:   

	(1)	Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the
vow

                        be performed.

	(2) 	O thou that hearest prayer, unto thee shall all flesh come…

	(3) 	Iniquities prevail against me: as for our transgressions, thou
shalt purge

                        them away.

     Just see if I’ve got the right verse here, to make sure I have
the right verse…yeah.

	(1)	Praise waiteth for thee, O God, in Sion: and unto thee shall the
vow

                        be performed.

        Now notice, I can bring the same thing here to your attention,
I’ll bring it later on.  A little down further, how that that vow was
brought over in Hebrews.  And the whole thing comes to the path, where
we are definitely in the realm, and we are, that New Jerusalem.  

	        Now, I’ll just leave that for a split second.  All right. 
When we have had fulfilled in us Acts 1:5, that's when you receive the
Holy Ghost …the power of the Holy Ghost comes.  We personally, become
the promise of the Son, according to John 14:16-20.  Now, we know what
that said. 

57.  In other words, when we received, the Holy Ghost, we become the
literal, Word of God,      fulfilled according to John 14:16-20.  I
better read It, so there’s no mistake here.  Now, John the Baptist
came on the scene and said, “I am the Word of God, I am Isaiah 41: I
am Malachi 3:1.  Now, listen what It says over here. 

	(16)	And I will pray the Father, and he shall give you another
Comforter,

                        that he may abide with you for ever;

	(17)     Even the Spirit of truth; whom the world cannot receive,
because it 					seeth  him not, neither knoweth him: but ye know him;
for he dwelleth 				with you and shall be in you.

	(18) 	I will not leave you comfortless: I will come to you.

	(19) 	Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see
me: 					because I live, ye shall live also.

	(20)	 At that day ye shall know that I am in my Father, and ye in me,
and 				I in you.

       Now, we are the Word of God fulfilled, because we are in the
Father and the Father in us.  You see?  

58.  Now, we become John 14:16-20 in the flesh.  So, in our flesh, we
are absolutely Acts 1:8, we are also…that’s the soul winners, we are
also 2 Corinthians 5:20.  Now notice, the soul winners in the
horizontal.  Notice, in the horizontal.  

	(20)	Now we are ambassadors with Christ, as though God did beseech you,
				by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.

    Through antichrist in the stead of Christ, taking the place of
Christ. You cannot have a false one without a true One.  You cannot have
a counter one, without a true One.  

     So, therefore, there is a real true antichrist, he which literally
takes the place of Jesus Christ.  And there’s that false antichrist. 
You see?  Now, the Seven Church Age messengers, are the true.  But every
age there rose up a bogus.  Till the end-time there's going to come one
right against Christ Himself and say, “I am that one.”  He might
even have the nail prints.  I don’t know.  I’m not worried about it.
 See?  The world could be fooled with anything.  They are already
fooled.  You see, they missed the Appearing.  Anyone can fool with
anything, anybody can fool around.  Trick is they believe the devil’s
lie.  I don’t care what he tells, they believe it.

59.  Now, we’re absolutely Acts 1:8, and 2 Corinthians 5:20, is our
office to every one.  But notice, that 2 Corinthians 5:20 which is Act
1:8 based upon Acts 1:5.  See?  “Witnesses because you’re filled.”
[Acts 1:8] It’s proven to be so, by reason of  2 Corinthians 5:21. 

	(21)	For he (has) made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we 	
			might be made the righteousness of God (by our union with) him.

     By the Baptism with the Holy Ghost, we stand just like Christ. 
See?  Now, don’t pretend that you are the Christ.  But you stand as
Christ, as Bro. Branham said, “We’re all a bunch of Messiahettes.”
 See?  

60.   And this happens explained to us fully over here in 1 Corinthians
1:30. It says:

	(30)	But of him (are you) in Christ Jesus, (in union with Him, born 			
	again.) who of God is made unto us wisdom and righteousness, and 			
sanctification, and redemption: 

      The whole thing is in there.  That’s why Bro. Branham said,
“When Christ suffered, I suffered.  When He died, I died.”  In other
words, He as it were, we're part of His own redemption.  Now, you’ve
got to be careful how far you take this.  See?  In other words, He was
right there.  See?  Union and putting it all together.  

61.  We’re back to John 17: again.  And in there, verse 21.

	(21)	That they all may be one; as thou, Father, art in me, and I in
thee, that

                        they also may be one in us: that the world may
believe that thou hast 				sent me. (See?)

      That may be something down the line, even White Throne too.  

     Now, listen.  Let’s read something here, very carefully and
sincerely in John 17: 20-26 again.

	(20)	Neither pray I for these alone, but for them also which shall
believe 				on me through their word; (Notice:)

	(21)	That they all may be one; …

     The same Word that Jesus had back there fulfilled in the First Age,
is the same Word every Age has got concerning this subject.  And the
same thing has happened in every single age, all the way out.  

	(21)	 … that they alll may be one …

     The First Church Age and the last Age, all of them.  Old Testament
Bride, New Testament Bride.  

	(21)	…Father, art in me, and I in thee…

 62.  Now, how was God in him?  God was in him, because the Holy Spirit
came down and thoroughly.  The fulness of the Godhead.  The fulness does
not come to each individual.  But by the time the Church is in full
stature, the fulness of the Godhead is in her. Because He knew the
Resurrection life stands right there to raise her from the dead.  He was
that Life, takes her right up, the whole thing is where the Bride,
becomes the All and all of God.  In other words, she becomes the full
Word of God, absolutely revealed in human flesh.  You see?  Now, 

		

	(22) 	… the glory which thou gavest me I have given them; that they
may 

                        be one, even as we are one:

	(23)      I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in
one; that

                         the world may know that thou hast sent me, and
hast loved them, 

                         as thou hast loved me.

     Now remember, Jesus says in the Book of Revelation, He’s going to
cause the world to bow down, and admit that they're the ones, that He
loves.  So therefore, this verse can have a triple fulfillment as far as
I know.  The same as Bro. Branham put Him and us, and we and Him, in
three stages.  That Age, this Age and the White Throne.  But I’m
looking for something tremendous, to come out of this, just the same,
even though there is one portion down the road.  In a three-fold
fulfilling.  Now, keep reading on.  

	

	(24)	Father, I will that they also, whom thou hast given me, be with me
where

                        I am; that they may behold my glory, which thou
hast given me: for thou

                        lovest me before the foundation of the world.

	(25)	 O righteous Father, the world hath not known thee: but I have
known 				thee, and these have known that thou hast sent me.

63.  Now, notice that, see, ‘I’ve known You, I’m the Revealer, and
if these know that You sent Me.’ How are they going to know?  By the
Baptism with the Holy Ghost.  See?  Now,

	(26) 	… I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare: that
the love 			 	wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in
them.

        Now notice, He associates the name with the love.  So therefore,
at the end of the Age, as in the First Age, they knew who He was, and
they knew the Name.  It’s going to be that those who know the Name, as
the Book of Malachi said.  Absolutely they are the jewels, and they are
the ones that have the love of God, and the love of God in them.  

     Now listen, brother/sister, believe the Word, and get rid of your
cotton-picking ideas.  See?  That’s what it’s all about.  That’s
why this Message is going to change your life, or you’re going to sit
there and go back.  Now, you take your pick.  I’m tough with you
tonight, and I’m going to tell you why.  I’m not kidding.  

64.  The people that are full of the Holy Ghost, Paul the apostle prayed
for them as I read this verse in the Book of Ephesians 1: and he prayed,

	(17)	That the God of our Lord Jesus Christ...may give the spirit of
wisdom 				and revelation in the knowledge of him:

     That’s the Holy Ghost Himself, God Almighty.  I can prove It,
I’ve got a whole sermon on it.  

	(18)	The eyes of your understanding being enlightened; that ye may know


                        what is the hope of his calling, and what the
riches of the glory of his 

                        inheritance in the saints,

	(19)	And what is the exceeding greatness of his power to us-ward who 		
		believe, according to the working of his mighty power,

	(20)	Which he wrought in Christ, …

65.  In other words, the Shout brings on the Resurrection, and the
Resurrection, brings on the Rapture.  And that puts it:

	(21)	Far above all principality, and power, …in this world, (and in
the world)

		 to come:

     	(22)	… and put (everything) under his feet, and gave him to be
the head over 				all things to the church,

	(23)	Which is his body, the fulness of him that filleth all (things
with all 				things).

     In other words, absolutely God comes to a full peak in the Bride. 
See?  Now therefore, this must be understood, what I am saying here. 
That this is in the works at this particular time. Now, notice in verse
26.   

	(26)	And I have declared unto them thy name, and will declare it: that
the 				love wherewith thou hast loved me may be in them, and I in them.

       Now, Jesus said It after God said It, and that established It. 
Because He could only say what the Father told Him to say.  Now Bro.
Branham said, “I call you Bride.” Didn’t he?  So, she's supposed
to be called ‘Bride’.  You’re supposed to understand these things
and stand with them, because this is what it is about.  

66.  Now, I don’t want to stop, but I want to go on again to Hebrews
6: where I took you awhile ago, showing you exactly how they crucify the
Son of God afresh.  But this time I’m going to go into verse 13. 
Maybe just read and pass on, might not finish. 

	(13)	For when God made promise to Abraham, because he could swear 				
by no greater, he sware by himself,

	(14)	Saying, Surely blessing I will bless thee, multiplying I will
multiply 				thee.

	(15) 	And so, after (Abraham) had patiently endured, he obtained the
promise.

	(16)     For men verily swear by the greater: and an oath for
confirmation is to 				them an end of all strife.

	(17)     Wherein God, willing more abundantly to shew unto the heirs of
promise 				the immutability of his counsel, (intervened, or interposed
Himself with 				an oath.) 

     It wasn’t just enough to give His Word, He came down.  Now, the
heir of promise, is to Abraham, not just that son, which the Gentiles,
and a City which hath foundation.  So, when you’re talking about we're
heirs with Abraham; God has got to come down Himself, with His Word. 
He’s got to interpose Himself.  And He’s done it.  Revelation 10:1. 


	(18)	 (That by two) immutable things, in which it was impossible for
God 				to lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for
refuge to 

                         lay hold upon the hope set before us:

	(19)	Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, …

67.     I want to ask you a question:  Where’s your soul?  It’s in
your body.  Where’s the anchor?  In the body.  Who went to the veil? 
Jesus.  Who came back?  Jesus.  What was He?  Holy Ghost.  And you’ve
got an anchor for the Holy Ghost right in your own soul.  

	(19)	…both sure and stedfast, and which entereth into that within the
veil;

     What was in you, went within the veil.  Christ, the hope of glory.
Christ our life. See?  

	(20)     Whither (the) forerunner (is entered), even Jesus, made an
high priest

                         for ever after the order of Melchisedec.

     And He came down and showed Himself.  You talk about Melchesidec
sometime.  No time right now.  

68.  Now, Hebrew 10: 21-23 which I read to you, pardon me already.
Concerning the:  

	(21)	...having an high priest over the house of God;

	(22)     Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith,
having our

                       hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our
bodies washed with 				pure water.

        It tells you that.  Do you know something?  You can say what you
want.  I don’t care what you say.  I’m going to tell you flat.  The
aApha and Omega principle, which I don’t have time to deal with
tonight…sets forth, the doctrine of the last Church Age, which could
not be fulfilled, but was set forth as though it could be fulfilled, at
that moment.  Because it lay in the potential.  Now, It says here, the
body is washed with pure water. If you’ve got that, you’ll go into
immortality.  But the First Church Age corrupted.  But there’ll be no
organization, no corruption with this.  This Age will have bodies washed
with pure water.  And they’ll enter right into the veil with Him, in
the physical, which they’re about to do. But, there’s something else
in the spiritual, that at this moment which we haven't attained to. 
That thing which we talk about, so, we’ll talk about that later.  

	(23)	Let us hold fast the (your confession) of  faith without wavering;
					(because you can do it, because He's faithful…)

     Right now, people in this Message, most of them are going right
back to Pentecost.  Or flirting around with it, and they haven’t
stayed steadfast with this.  And they're losing their hope.  They’re
beginning to drift.  Let me tell you something, you better keep on with
what you’re believing, because you ain’t going nowhere, without it. 
Except back to Pentecost.  See?  

69.  All right.  We read It.  Now, let’s just take a look at this
again.  In Hebrews 6: now It says, 

		

	(18)     That by two immutable things, in which it was impossible for
God to 

		lie, we might have a strong consolation, who have fled for refuge to 	
		lay hold upon the hope set before us:  

      Now listen, we’re laying hold of It.

	(19)     Which hope we have as an anchor of the soul, (which hope, He
entered 				in) the veil;  

       All right, you’ve got the Baptism with the Holy Ghost, as the
assurance, that you’re part of Him within the veil.  And at this
moment now, you have actually reached in behind the veil.  As Bro.
Branham said, “It was death to enter in behind the veil at one time,
now, it’s death not to enter in.” 

70.  Now, let’s go to, 2 Corinthians 4:13 and begin to see It.  Now,
what do we do about It?  

	(13)	We having the same spirit of faith, according as it is written, I
believed,

                         and therefore, have I spoken; we also believe,
and therefore (we) speak;

     And that’s what Paul said concerning it.  Our testimony is, we
have entered in behind the veil.  And are one with Him who entered in
there.  And have a hope within our soul, which is the Baptism of the
Holy Ghost.  Now, why did He enter there?  He entered there because He
took His Blood.   

71.  Okay. And It says here, Hebrews 10:  Okay, and It says here:

	(11)	… every (high) priest (met) daily (standing)... ministering
…and 					offering oftentimes the same sacrifices, which can never
take away 				sins. 

	(12)	But this man after he had offered one sacrifice for sins for ever,
sat 				down on the right hand of God.

	(13)     From henceforth expecting till his enemies be made his
footstool.

	(14)     For by one offering he hath perfected for ever them that are
sanctified.

	(15)     Whereof the Holy Ghost … is … witness to us…

       In other words, the proof of the fact that Jesus Christ shed His
Blood, rose from the dead, ...?... the Mercy Seat, and we have
availability to if and become part of It the Holy Ghost came back and
said, "I seal you in." Pentecost had a saying years ago. ‘The Spirit
answers the Blood.’  It sure does. (Man, where’s the time gone? 
Well, it doesn’t matter where it’s gone, we're still here.)  

72.  All right.  So, it is not at all difficult to see, the great work
of the Holy Spirit in two levels.  When the vertical asks from God
Himself to the individual, and then on the horizontal of God, to
individuals reaching out to other individuals, both in  the Bride, and
outside of the Bride. 

       Now, I’m going to quit.  The rest is not too important.  All
kinds of notes here, but you know a lot about these things, already. 

      I was going to take up the fact of how the Holy Spirit, gives us
eternal son-ship, and eternal security.  But, you know that…I’ve
already talked about it,  don't have to read it in the Scripture…how
we're part of the  First Resurrection, because of it.  How a part of the
Rapture, because of It. How we're in the Millennium because of It.  How
we’re a part of the White Throne because of It.  How we’re in New
Jerusalem because of It.  In short, Ephesians 1:3-12 which is a bird's
eye view of the whole thing, absolutely comes to pass.  And if God's
before us, who can be against us, we're going to get It. How the Holy
Spirit is the teacher in the Church, to teach each individual, how
He’ll lead you out as a Comforter.  How He directs you in all your
thoughts and ways.  Now, you know all about that, I don’t have to
teach you.  That's good enough, let’s stand.   

     Heavenly Father, we thank You, that Thou art God, and that we have
a relationship.  And that relationship is not by somebody, but Yourself.
 And You came down to the Garden of Eden, and took care of redemption. 
You've come down at the end-time and finished it off.  But there’s not
one Bride that has been bereft of God, there is not one Bride that has
missed out in God.  But Lord, Thou art faithful.  And tonight, we feel
constrained, Lord, we feel, Lord, lifted up in our favour.  That we
might say the things that You told us to say, and those things that You
said abut us, that we are to agree with.  Because how can two walk
together, unless they be agreed!  So, Heavenly Father, we just pray
tonight now,  that one who walks about like an evil bird that tries to
pick away the good grain.  We pray, Lord, tonight You'll smite him down.
 And don’t let him take out hearts and our minds.  God, gird up our
hearts and our minds, by the Holy Ghost tonight. 

      So, that nothing could break and now, ...?...but rather, Lord,
according to Your Word, now flood as we pray, with the illumination of
the Holy Ghost, to speak back to us, and make it very, very, very real
in the mechanical.  Until, Lord, it becomes absolutely right in the
spiritual.  Lord, You’ve done so much for me recently, in the
spiritual, by revelation.  I could not believe this would ever come.  I
did not understand, but, Lord, how great it is, and Lord, this can come
too.  And It will come too.  Lord, it’s going to be precept upon
precept, line upon line, here a little there a little.   Until the whole
thing comes together.

     So, Father God, tonight, we bless Your people in the Name of Jesus
Christ.  Believing they have been blessed, and will be blessed,  Lord,
even as dear old Isaac back there, in his blindness, felt out, and he
couldn't change a blessing. ...?... He's been blessed, and he shall be
blessed, and as the prophet said, “Thus it has been spoken, thus
it’s going to be.” We believe it’s the same Holy Ghost, Lord.  And
so, we thank You tonight, Father, that we're not looking way back, and
we’re not looking too far forward, but we're seeing an exact.  So
Father, bless Your Word.  And Your Word is Your people tonight, because
they have received the Word of God, and have become the Word of God in
the flesh.  Therefore, Lord, may the dew of Heaven rest upon them, abide
upon them.  

     And the glory which You said, they would share with You, Lord,
they're sharing, and don’t even know it, Lord.  But we know it
somehow.  And, Lord, by Your grace, we'll be able to explain it, we
hope, Lord, in the days whichcome.  So, Father, we just present
ourselves to you.  And thank You, Lord, for just Your blessing.  And we
say tonight, “Thank God for Jesus, who died upon Calvary.”  And we
say, "thank You, Lord," that You shared Yourself with us.  That You
united with us.  And You’ve done it all.  Therefore, may You receive
all the glory, and from now on, Lord, may we who live in the Spirit,
walk in that same Spirit, as children of the light.  No longer their
minds darkened.  No longer with the world, but we're growing right up
unto Christ, because it’s the end of time.  Now, unto the King eternal
immortal, invisible the only wise God, be all power and honor and glory
through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen. 

     Do you love the Lord tonight?  Well we certainly don’t have any
reason not to love Him tonight.  He showed you where the love was.  You
know, Israel couldn’t understand the love of God.  They said, "why you
loved." And they said, "wherein you loved us?"  Well, He said, “I
hated Esau, and loved you.”  You look around, and you'll find out
there in the  charismatic's and a lot of people around the world.  Why
Bro. Branham said, “They’d work the old horse to death.”  Why, 
look it, you look around and admire those folk, and you say, “Man
alive, I just look like a cheap old  tin-horn alongside of them.”  Ah,
that may be.  They’ll rest a nation, but God doesn’t say that.  God,
doesn’t say that.  You see, because what people love, God hates. See? 
That’s true.  And what people hate, God loves. 

     And they got to hate us. He said, “Look it, they hated Me, and
made Me the devil.”  Do you think they’re going to get away with it?
Why if they'd pick up stones to kill Him, when He said, “I and My
Father are one.”  What’s going to happen to us?  Very interesting,
isn't it? Interesting. How are you going to hold up?  He said, we would.
 I didn’t say I would.  He said we would.   

  

       Why, He said, "I'll hold you.”  When he comes in like a flood,
I'll raise up a standard. He's come in like a flood and God's raised up
a standard. He definitely said, we've seen the Word of God demonstrated
in power. But not in Its’ revelation.  Brother/sister, I’m looking
for that revelation.  When we're the revealed Sons of God. It's going to
happen I’ll tell you why.  Because every spirit is being manifested. 
I told you here before, I said, “Look, you’re going to find out who
the real Lee Vayle is, before it’s all over.”  And I’m going to
find out if I stick around you, “Who the real you are.” 

     So, don’t be a hypocrite whatever you do.  You should just relax.
 I know that’s hard to do.  But there’s nothing to cover up at the
end-time.  The prophet showed you nothing to be covered up.  Man, you
just say one word, he's flipping in that trance, look right through you.
 Then you wouldn’t even be fit to be called cheesecloth. You
wouldn’t be there at all the time he looked through you. You
couldn’t hide if you tried.  Wonderful God we deal with.  He said,
“He would be a cover in the end time”.  Yes, He said He would.  Just
like the husband is cover to the Bride. He is...the husband is cover to
his wife.  That's why she’s got to have long hair for a covering. 
Because her husband is her covering.  Now, who’s your husband?  Who's
your cover?  And you know what?  When He covered Himself that day when
they tried to kill Him, at the brow of the hill. 

     They're struggling to push Him over.  And they couldn’t even
touch Him.  He just walked through the whole bunch.  When He came back
in the Resurrection, they didn’t know who He is.  Only by what He did.
 Is He changed?  No.  Bride's okay. She's  not going to go through the
Tribulation, don’t worry.  She'll never see the wrath of God, we
weren't appointed to wrath. She's appointed to glory. Amen, let’s
sing. “Oh how I love Jesus.” Take the Name of Jesus with you.
