Leadership #23

Eat My Flesh… Partaking of the Fatness

Spiritual, Sexual Affair with the Word

October 12, 1994

	Let us pray. Heavenly Father, we know Your Presence as a reality
because we have been proven that by the manifestation, the vindication,
and know that the same One Who came down for the Shout is here for the
Voice, also with the Trumpet, and, as Bro. Branham said, “That same
One, Who met Paul on the road to Damascus, had gone from the flesh to
the Pillar of Fire, gone back to that same Pillar.” We understand Who
that One is because that is God Almighty Himself. Call Him this name,
that name, many appellations, many titles… We know that You are one
God, and You are the Creator, You are the Father of the true Seed, and
we know that, but we also know that You are God. And in that, as being
God, that supercedes even the relationship of being Father, whereby
there would be those who would claim the relationship and then attempt
to take some kind of advantage. But when we look on You, Lord, as the
great, sovereign God, we know it is a time for reverence and for fear,
even as Bro. Branham said, “God is not some dotty, old grandfather
that you can take liberties with.”

	And, Lord, tonight we would not want to take any liberty at all,
especially with Your Word, only the liberty that’s granted us by
revelation through the vindicated Message and, then, truly revealed to
us and shown in Scripture by the Holy Spirit—You, Yourself. We ask
these mercies; You guide us tonight, in Jesus’ Name. Amen. 

	You may be seated.

 1. Now we’re into number twenty-three of the “Leadership” series,
and because we took such little time with the actual going into the
Message itself, (I’ve only got two or three paragraphs.) I want to
start over again and, then, see how far we can get tonight. So, we’ll
just take this same preamble and sort of catch up on it. 

	[Bro. Vayle begins reading directly from his notes, gradually
interjecting more and more comments along the way.] So, as we continue
to study this message, we must continue to realize that we are not
simply talking about a man with a great ministry and admiring that
ministry, which is evidently from God, because things are being done
that only God can do.

	We must realize and accept that the ministry of power in William
Branham’s life is an exact parallel to a resurgence of that ministry
of God, when God was in the tabernacle called ‘Jesus’, and He did
the works that men recognized as coming…and coming ‘only’ from
God.

2.	The next step is to realize that that ministry of power is God’s
way of attracting the people to the Word which He desires to give the
people through the prophet who is ministering those acts of power.
It’s the same thing that Paul said, “I never came to you with any
wisdom of my own, or anything that was at all sophisticated, I came in
the demonstration and power of the Holy Ghost.” Remember; God is the
Holy Ghost.

	Man must see the works of God in order to be drawn to hear the Word of
God and know it is indeed the vindicated Word that God Himself is
bringing. God in this day anointed His prophet, and God Himself
performed the works, and God Himself brought forth His Own Word, and
He’s always done according to Deuteronomy 18, which is the only way
that God can and will do it.

3.	The next, and last thing, is to realize that the majority reject the
Message, and only a bare minority, likened unto the eight people in the
ark, are elected, or chosen, to see It. The mighty acts of God are only
a temporary ministry, absolutely unduplicated, and is a sign of the Word
to follow. And there is no mention of a power ministry to follow based
upon this tremendous vindication of Deuteronomy 18. We must never forget
the vindicated ministry of Deuteronomy 18, unduplicated, and nothing but
a Message will follow. People don’t believe that. Well, they’ll find
out later.

4.	A true prophet of the Word is always followed by false prophets, as
was seen how that, after Moses brought the Message of the hour, Balaam
came on the scene with tremendous prophecies, and though the prophecies
themselves came to pass, the man, himself, was an enemy of the Word.
Then came Korah, Dathan, Abiram, and you’ll notice all through
Scripture that Balaam and Korah are mentioned along with Cain—very
disreputable people. And Bro. Branham preached that in the “Anointed
Ones of the End Time,” how it repeats in this hour. 

	This is what Bro. Branham is trying to get over to the Full Gospel
Businessmen who have attempted (And they did a pretty good job.) to take
over leadership for God by taking it away from the five-fold ministry,
or making the five-fold ministry subservient to them. 

	And you’ll notice that the five-fold ministry fell for the gold. They
went for the gold, because they felt that these people, being
commercial-minded, you could apply business tactics and business
principles to the ministry, and you could simply, then, take books like
Charles Finney wrote, and you can read history, and always the people
are sure that what they did provoked God to a revival. They’re going
to lead the world to God. That’s another Catholic doctrine. They’re
going to take the world over for God so that Christ can come back and
rule. 

5.	And they’re like Jehovah Witnesses. Way back during depression
days, they built a fabulous mansion in California to the tune of
$50,000, and Rutherford, I guess, or Russell—maybe it was Russell—he
was going to occupy and live in it until the Lord came, and I don’t
know who’s living in it now. But if it’s still there, it’s going
to be like that great, marvelous underwater attraction that the
Armstrong bunch had. It’ll be the finest, religious, underground,
underwater auditorium in creation, because it’s all going under.

6.	You can’t get them to see this because they’re blind. They’re
blind, and they’re full of pride. Ignorance and arrogance go together.
Wisdom and humility are also twins. So, instead of bringing the world to
Christ, they’re bringing the world to antichrist because no one has
been more successful than the Full Gospel Businessmen and Mr. DuPlessis,
the Pentecostals, in bringing the last day group of people and others
with them back to harlot Rome. And all the daughters are going back
there. But even more tragic is the fact that many who loved and believed
in Bro. Branham will leave the Word and go back. They never did have the
Word in the first place. They never believed It. That’s the major
problem.

7.	Paragraph 192 on page 28:

[192]	And any Message that’s come in, a genuine, born Message of God,
(That’s what he’s saying, then, a genuine message that’s born of
God. And it can’t be genuine unless it comes from God.) is different
from the old trend…

	Now he wants the people to know from history, both in the Bible and
religious history as taught in the schools and seminaries, set forth by
historians, that you’ll notice there’s always a change in the
Message. Now you can trace that from the first age; it started to go
down. And you’ll notice that they’d lost their first love, and many
things have been said about that first love, but the actual, definitive
revelation, in my books, in my understanding, is: their hearts began to
lose their uncircumcized condition, and they began to clutter their
hearts, where we speak of worship towards God, obscure the eyes of the
soul by creeds and dogmas. 

8.	And, if you go back in that first age, you will find that many things
came up, and just to let you know that you might have missed it
yourself, it’s in the Bible. Paul spoke of it already having run in a
frontal attack, with all the apostles, who were on the verge of becoming
Judaizers, and they all attempted to have Timothy circumcised.

	What in the name of common sense does circumcision got to do with
anything when it comes to the Gospel? But already they’d started on
that trail down. Now the reason I said that is because only the truly
circumcised heart can love God with the whole heart. Otherwise you have,
not just, you might say, a division of opinion, but you have a strong
division in there of your whole feeling and attitude in your love and
your desire to God. In fact, the actual fact of the matter is, in my
books, that without God circumcising our hearts, giving us, as it were,
a heart of flesh instead of an old heart of stone and corruption, to
really know the doctrine, as we know it today, if God didn’t do
something for us, we couldn’t love Him. There’s no way.

9.	You’re looking at five and a half billion people that are cannon
fodder, atomic fodder, going to be destroyed with flaming fire when God
takes vengeance on them in the final end, and yet you look at this all
here where you realize that God, being infinite, knew how many fleas
there’d be and how many times they’d bat their eyes, and how much
maybe to make a pound of tallow, which is putting it succinctly and
abrasively, but very accurately, and at no time has the will of God ever
been thwarted, at no time has His Word ever returned void because It was
sent somewhere, a special place for a special purpose. Man comes back
and says, “Who, then, has resisted His Will?” [Rom 9:19] It sounds
like a cut and dried thing.

10.	How can you get emotional in the right way if you knew that your
father was predestinated to go to hell, and the mother that you love so
dearly? What do you think that Isaac and Rebekah felt like when the Word
came: “Esau have I hated.” And Isaac, in spite of every good
intention, could not prophesy over Esau any blessing or promise from God
because he was not the true, elect Seed.

	Now Rebekah played a very foolish part. Just like her ancestor, Eve,
she thought she could fiddle with the Word, and so she had Jacob put on
some goat hair and helped him cook some savory food and duped the ol’
boy. And he said, “It’s the voice of Jacob, and the hand of Esau.”

	Of course, you know that’s become quite a saying in the world. They
talk Christian words and act like the devil. Oh, that’s
everywhere…just everywhere.

	So, he blessed him, and Esau came and his dad began to tremble like a
leaf.

	He said, “What is this? I blessed Jacob.”

	Why didn’t he say, “That rotten scoundrel, dare to fool with me! I
thought he had more on the ball. I’ll take it away”?

	No, he said, “Yea, and he shall be blessed.”

	Why? Because God spoke through him.

11.	What do you think? Eight people make the ark, percentage wise. Five
and a half billion people…

	Paul the apostle, in the first church age, he said, “I could wish
myself to be accursed for my brethren after the flesh, and I don’t
cease to pray for this bunch and that bunch.”

	Bro. Branham, at the end of the age, says, “I don’t pray for
America anymore. I’m here for a Bride.”

	Is that smog? Huh? Is that Shekinah glory? Make up your mind; make up
your mind.

12.	What is the biggest circle of unbelief on the human heart? The
sovereignty of God: “God is not sovereign. We can bend Him. We can
sway Him.”

	I’ve got news for you: Nebuchadnezzar learned the hard way.
Belshazzar wouldn’t learn. The return to Babylon, my dear brothers and
sisters, is that Nebuchadnezzar, who learned, is no longer here, but
Belshazzar is. He didn’t even know when he didn’t have a kingdom to
divide and give to anybody. 

13.	Full Gospel Businessmen, (My God, have pity.) not knowing that this
great healing revival, discernment, and discernment, by the way, was
like eating or sucking on a frozen mackerel, alongside of the gift of
healing. The people didn’t have a clue to Hebrews 4, and they still
don’t have a clue to Hebrews 4. And they’re never going to have a
clue, until it’s too late, where It says in verse 12:

(12)	For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any
twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and
spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts
and intents of the heart.

(13)	Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight:
but all things are naked…

	Now, just a minute; just a minute. There’s no Scripture whatsoever
until John the Revelator, in Chapter 3 in the last church age,
pronounces ‘nakedness’. The same Revelator talks about it in the
Epistles but here alone is where nakedness comes, and the nakedness of
the people is something they don’t even know about; they do not
believe it; they don’t have a clue; and THUS SAITH THE LORD proved the
condition they’re in, and they weren’t ashamed at His Presence. In
fact, they laughed, and the women had a jubilee. “Ha! Ha! Ha! Ha!
We’re going to cut our hair, and wear our skirts the way we want, and
we’re going to preach! Ha! Ha! Ha! Put that in your Branhamite pipe
and smoke it.”

14.	Let it sink in, what I’m telling you. I was there. That’s the
condition of the world. Yet they say they’re worshipping and praising
God and going to bring everybody to God. Radio stations everywhere…
There won’t be a person in the world that will not have heard of the
Gospel. But what kind of a Gospel? if, in the First Church Age, the
works in somebody else’s flesh, because that’s what circumcision
is… No child circumcises himself. It takes somebody else to do it. So,
if they begin a works program and lost their first love, which was a
pure heart, freshly reborn by the Word, and truly circumcised because
they didn’t have a Word.

	Now, this is why it is that Roman Catholics… And don’t go patting
yourselves on the back, but they are the best candidates for this
Message, because they really never had anything. When a glimpse of the
Word comes, they had so little Word, and so inured with works programs,
even to the extent of realizing they flagellate themselves to imitate
the sufferings of Christ, till the blood pours.

15.	I ask a question, and I’m a very rotten preacher, and I’m very
crude, I’m very rude, and I’m very lewd. A woman types the church,
and when she flagellates herself, even to the extent of blood, to think
she’s pleasurable to God, she’s getting some kind of a worship
thrill there. Do you know women have flagellated themselves to have
sexual feelings? Oh, you haven’t read the books? Well, I’ll buy them
for you; I’ll buy them for you. Before this message is finished,
we’ll talk about true, spiritual, sexual intercourse.

16.	No, they turned it all down, and they didn’t know when it struck
them in this age, that Bro. Branham could read every heart, and even
say, like Jesus, “Your sin is forgiven you.”

	“Ah-h-h! Only God can forgive sin.”

	Do they forget that Jesus, the great prophet, said that he could only
tell you “what my father tells me to tell you”?

	No, they don’t have a clue to the prophet. Do you know why? Because
they are the prophets, bolstered with gifts that are genuine. But you
can still be a Judas who gave Jesus the affectionate kiss of betrayal,
and that is in the original Greek. Judas did not hate Jesus. 

	Many people love William Branham. They will not speak evil of him, even
today. But where he tramped on the Jesus-Only toes… And let’s get
this flat: no Trinitarian despised William Branham like a Jesus-Only.
Huh? I know what I’m talking about, and I know their spirit. If you
think a Roman Catholic’s spirit is devastating, you haven’t been
anywhere yet till you come across that Jesus-Only—the Oneness. Do you
think Bro. Branham was Oneness? In one God, yes, but not Oneness in the
doctrine, and not Jesus-Only. No. 

17.	When this man did what he did, and only God can do it, because no
mistake was ever made. You can’t get a fortune teller or one of these
persons with a familiar spirit; they’ll make mistakes. And it showed
here that nothing was hidden at the end time, everything was naked, and
the people refused to believe the condition they’re in. Had they
listened and understood what Bro. Branham is saying here, when a divine
healing went forth not long ago, did you notice how the impersonators
followed it? They’d be different if they’d understood it.

18.	[192]	And everyone of them went right in them, those organizations,
staying there. Does anyone know that there had to be a Message follow
that? Why, God doesn’t entertain us! He attracts our attention with
something, and when He attracts our attention, then He gets His Message.

	How did Moses even get a Word? Pillar of Fire—bush didn’t burn.

[193]	Look, when He first came on the earth and started His ministry,
“O young Rabbi, we want you over here in our church. Come on down
here.” The young prophet.“Oh, we want you here. Come here.”

[194]	One day He stood up and said, “I and My Father are one.”

[195]	“Oh…! He makes himself ‘God’.

	He did not make himself God. They said he made himself God. He didn’t
say that. But that’s not the truth; that’s merely a reaction.

[196]	“Except you eat the Flesh of the Son of the man and drink His
Blood, you have no Life in you.”

[197]	“He’s a vampire! (“Turn us into cannibals,” another place
Bro. Branham says.) “We’ll have nothing to do with that.

	That was their reaction. That wasn’t the Word of God.

	You know something? God’s Word cannot return to Him void, but It
always does what the purpose is, and the purpose always has its season.
See?

	Now, in this very hour here, these people did not realize what was
happening in God’s Own mighty workings, through a man, to bring them
to the Word of Almighty God. Okay.

19.	We dealt with the first part: “Oh, he makes himself God.” That
was over here in John 10, and Jesus is talking, and he’s walking in
Solomon’s Porch.

(24)	(And) the Jews come…and said…, How long dost thou make us to
doubt? If thou be the Christ, tell us plainly.

(25)	Jesus answered them, I told you, and you believed not: the works
that I do in my Father’s name…

	Now, watch; He’s not only ‘doing’ in the Father’s Name—if he
did it in his Father’s Name, he had to do it in his own Name, because
they’ve got one name. If you wanted to do what the Norweigans and
Swedes do, he’d have to call himself ‘Jesusson’ to know that
he’s the son of Jesus. But his Father’s Name was Jehovah-Savior. 

20.	(25)	…(He) came in (his) Father’s name, they bear witness of me.

(26)	But you believe not, because you are not my sheep, as I said unto
you.

(27)	My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me:

(28)	And I give unto them eternal life; and they shall never perish,
neither shall any man pluck them out of my hand.

(29)	My Father, which gave them (to) me, is greater than all; and no man
is able to pluck them out of my Father’s hand.

	Now, right here on the great Shepherd, Psalm 23: of course It says,
“The Lord is my shepherd.” It’s my understanding in the Hebrew,
the caption is “The Lord, my Shepherd,” and because the Lord is my
Shepherd, “I shall not want.” And It goes through the whole
delineation there. Now we know that God is the ultimate and great
Shepherd. And Jesus can only be ‘shepherd’ on the grounds it’s
granted him of God to be that. So, when he speaks, he’s speaking only
what he’s granted by his Father to give him and to be. Because, in
spite of every single thing that the Father has allowed him to be, to
participate in, take jurisdiction over, he can never be God. 

21.	Now, this is what I don’t understand amongst the people who, (They
don’t leave this church.) I think a couple left… I could name the
one man, his wife I’m sure was utterly confused and didn’t know if
there was one, three, four, five, or six. With a husband like that,
I’m certain I wouldn’t know. My wife should know if I was that
confused. And trusting my brain, not speaking evil, just speaking the
truth, maybe rubbing it in a bit… But you want to make a pork chop
taste good by rubbing the sage.

	So, there’s your truth right there. We maybe had one leave. The rest,
in leaving… Of course, some were asked to leave, like that one… This
church did not quake for one minute to understand that Jesus himself is
not God. And you know why? Because the doctrine of God in the prophet
was so thoroughly taught here, and that Jesus himself was the great
Prophet, incarnating God Himself. He didn’t find it hard to realize
that that’s what he is: a man like we are, but in a capacity that we
could never attain to.

22.	To begin with, as the First-begotten, he’s entitled to fifty
percent of everything his Father has, which is what the first-born gets,
and the first-born gets it because he’s a perpetuator of the
father’s life. Right?

	What if he had only…God’s desire to give a million of us? We could
be a million bride. One percent. Well, he can’t even do that. We’re
just allowed to share with Jesus, a man. “A man of God, approved among
you.” [Acts 2:22] 

	“Oh, no, he’s a God of Gods, approved among you, as he’s taught
here in Grace Gospel Church!”

	Neither can they read; neither can they see; neither can they hear!
Something has happened to their brains! And I’ll tell you what’s
happened: they’ve been taught wrong! They’ve been taught every time
they see the word ‘peas’, it means ‘beans’. Right? We talk about
Jesus, the Son of God.

	All they can think of: “Just a minute, just a minute. God the Son,
you make two gods.”

	How foolish can people be? Bro. Branham himself said, which is true in
the kenosis, that God poured into Jesus everything He was. Now, that
doesn’t mean to vomit up, He poured it in.

	Then God’s nothing. We got rid of God. 

	Now Christ turns around and pours everything into us. Now we got rid of
him—no Jesus. Now we’re the Elohim of God. Hi, Gods! Oh, forget it.
Yuk! Meet that in my sleep, I’d have a nightmare.

23.	What I’m telling you is: Listen: merciful God, I cannot fathom it.
I stand here believing I am teaching Bro. Branham one hundred percent
from this Word vindicated that we who believe, as we believe, are the
only sane people left in the world.

	“Oh, you’re taking it too far.”

	Maybe I have, but I’m going to see just how far God will carry us,
because I’m going to stand with this Word. No place in the Bible can I
see eternal Son, no place can I see God the Son, but every place I can
see the Son of God, the Son of God, the Son of God, the Son of God, the
Son of God. “And though he were a Son, yet he learned obedience by the
things that he suffered,” [Heb 5:8] and you cannot suffer except
you’re in temptation—tempted in every way as we were, bar none. And
he’s a high priest, and the high priest has to come from amongst men.
“He lives to make intercession.” [Heb 7:25] I don’t know. I could
cry for them; I could cry for us. I don’t understand.

24.	“I and my Father are one.” [Jn 10:30]

	“That makes Jesus his own father.” 

	Forget it. 

	“Oh, no, it’s just God in offices.”

	God in the Son, then, should be God the Son, God the Father, God the
Holy Ghost. I don’t buy that. I understand Bro. Branham finally got to
the correct words, he used the word ‘role’, the ‘mask’. “I and
my Father are one,” and that’s exactly true because the Father was
in him. And the Jews took up stones again to stone him. Now, see, if
they’d have stood still and listened to get to Chapter 14 where he
instructed his disciples, they wouldn’t have had this embarrassing
situation, which condemned them. 

25.	(32)	Jesus (said), Many good works have I showed you from my Father;
for which of (these) works do you stone me?

(33)	(They said), For a good work we don’t stone you; but…blasphemy;
(for) thou, being a man, makest thyself God. 

	Now he did not make himself God, and that is a lying statement. He did
not make himself God, nor would that make him God. Because they
understood Moses in the same light, and Jesus said, “If you’d
understood Moses, you’d understand me. If you knew Moses, you’d know
me. But you don’t know one thing except the history of the grandeur of
the things that God did. You don’t understand the Word that came forth
from It. And now here I am, doing the same thing.”

	He never made himself God. This is a lousy, filthy statement on the
part of these serpent seed birds. What does Jesus do? He feeds them.
“Wanna play? I’ll play your game.”

	You think Bro. Branham didn’t play their game, too? 

26.	(34)	(He said), Is it not written in your law, I said, Ye are gods?
(And that’s true. You can go back there and find that in the Psalms.)

(35)	And if he called them gods, unto whom the word of God came, (And
Bro. Branham’s right. That’s the prophets. Only the Word comes to
prophets.) and the scripture cannot be broken;

(36)	Say ye of him, whom the Father hath sanctified, (Now, look; if
he’s got a Father, then this one’s the Son. Right?) and sent into
the world, Thou blasphemes; because I said, I am the Son of God? 

	Now, Jesus, defending himself, that he wasn’t God, but he was the Son
of God. Tell me when he’s changed!

	“Oh, Bro. Vayle, he’s gone back to a Pillar of Fire.”

	I defy that statement. He’s on his Father’s throne, my dear, little
children. I wonder what God they’ve got enthroned in their hearts,
where a man can leave his faithful wife and pick up a young woman, marry
her, and she prophesies by the hour. 

	How’d you like them apples here? Well, if you’re some kind of a
baser animal, you love swill; I ain’t mentioning any particular
animal. I think they made a cartoon once—they called him ‘Porky’.

27.	Now, watch:

(37)	If I do not the works of my Father, believe me not. (Same as John
14 now, but they still don’t get it.)

(38)	But if I do, though you believe me not, believe the works; that you
may know, and believe, that the Father is in me, and I in him. (And
there’s your answer: “‘I and my Father are one,’ but I am not
the Father. The Father’s in me, the Son.”)

	And this is the principle from the beginning of creation: that the Son
came forth, born of God, and by him God created all things. But
remember; he’s a Son. And remember; he led in the worship of God
because the Son always worshipped his Father, Who is God! All right.

28.	So now, they said to him, “You’ve made yourself God.” And now
in the omega, they turn around and say, “You people in Grace Gospel
Church and a few idiots that believe what Bro. Vayle teaches, you’ve
got two gods.”

	I don’t understand. I talked to Luke [Gibson] the other day, and he
said, “Bro. Grigory said a man that sat in his ministry for many
years, when he finally caught, I guess, that Bro. Earl was preaching,
‘There’s one God, and His Son, Jesus Christ, and everything else
rotates and rolls around him…’”

	Can’t you understand the Lamb on the Throne and the Pillar of Fire
above the Throne, and there is no light there, no need of sun and moon,
and no temple? I could start screaming because something strikes my
heart that’s real. I’ve got a devil, I guess. I’m full of the
un-Holy Ghost.

	Who did Judas betray? Huh? God had left His Son in the Garden of
Gethsemane, so now we’ve got no more God? I don’t know where
they’re coming from. There’s nothing I can say to put it in
perspective because it’s just simply beyond me.

29.	But they say, “You people believe in two gods.” 

	And I tell them, “If I believe in two gods, then I believe in perhaps
one million or three million gods. The fact that you’re a Son of God
does not make you ‘God’. No, they can’t look at omega and go back
to alpha. They can’t take alpha and go to omega. You see, if they did,
they’d understand what I’m preaching, but they defy Bro. Branham.
They defy him because he told us to watch alpha and omega and what’s
in Genesis has to come out here in Revelation or forget it! 

	And, if it comes out that Adam and Eve are to control the world, and
their progeny… Now, listen; get this flat: …and it ends up contrary
to that, and the contrary harvest is that Son of God on that throne,
having overcome death and sin and every quirk and every creation and
everything else, and cause man to come and sit with him…(Do you follow
me?)…that omega has to be the original Word that God said, and I
don’t care how you read it! Get this flat: I told one guy—I’ll
tell many guys: if I’m a liar, every liar goes to Lake of Fire, and
you can have… Now, this is sacrilegious, I realize, because I’m a
horrible type of person. You could have the privilege, maybe He
wouldn’t allow it, but whoever wants the privilege, if I’m in the
Lake of Fire, they can step on my head. See? It’s “live, die, sink
or swim.”

	You get the picture? The Word of God cannot return to Him void. The
original intent must come to pass at the harvest or forget it! Bro.
Branham categorically said the truth: “Eve caused an interruption,”
a delay, and we saw what came forth after the delay. We’re going to
enter into it. So I don’t know what they’re talking about.

30.	But he said:

[196]	“Except you eat the Flesh of the Son of man and drink His Blood,
you have no Life in you.”

	Well, now, that’s very interesting: “Except you eat his flesh.”
All right. At the end time, when all the people come together, there’s
a group of people that “wherever the carcass is, the eagles are
gathered.” Now I’ve got news for you: that word isn’t
‘carcass’, it’s ‘body’…where the ‘body’ is. There’s
two gatherings: one to the ‘toma’; one to the ‘soma’. Bro.
Branham was concerned only with the ‘soma’; he’d given up on the
‘toma’. Forget it. “Nineteen fifty-six…I don’t pray anymore
for America.” He doesn’t pray, why should you? The only prayer you
can pray, according to the Word of God now, is pray for the authorities.
That’s legitimate. They’re going to go down anyway, but the point
is: you pray for them.

31.	Now, listen carefully: this word in the Greek: “Eat my
‘flesh’” is the word ‘sarx’ which means literally ‘the
skinned carcass of an animal’. Bro. Branham talked of God veiled
behind badger skins until He came and became veiled behind the skin…of
whom? His Only-begotten Son.

	So, if I peel the skin off, I’m just giving you plain from the Bible,
if I peel the skin off of this one who died for me, the only thing left
is God. That’s right, because that’s what it’s all about. 

32.	Now, notice; Bro. Branham says this, concerning the veil of the
skins and so on, God was behind it, “It was death to go behind the
veil at one time, now it’s death not to.” Listen, what he says:
[from “Anointed Ones at the End Time”]

[269]	The Son of man is Christ… Now, notice; Jesus said, “Except you
eat the flesh of the Son of man…” Prophet! Unless you eat from
what’s under the skin of the prophet, you have no life…you know, you
just die. You’ve got to eat and drink both. 

[269]	…The Son of man is Christ. He’s the One you’re feeding on.
You’re not feeding on a man. The man’s just a veil. He’s the
skin…we skin him. See? A man, his words will fail, but you’re
feeding on the unfailing Body-Word…

	Now, why did he have to say that? Because that’s the Bible—“Eat
my body, eat my flesh,” this is it. He tells you right here what I’m
talking about. Do you think Bro. Branham knew that word was ‘sarx’,
which was the carcass of a skinned animal? Oh, come on. I think
there’s many times he used the Greek, but he didn’t use it there.
He’s telling you under divine inspiration.

	“The Son of man.” Man does not constitute a prophet of himself.
Forget it! No way, shape, or form. He’s just a man, and some are
pretty slim pickins as men, I guess, when you look the picture over. You
know, really, they’re not to be admired in the flesh. If you go for
the flesh, you’re kidding yourself. That’s why, to try to imitate
Christ ain’t going to do you no good. You can’t imitate; you got to
feed on something here: piling Word upon Word, getting nourishment,
feeding the inner man.

33.	“The Son of man is Christ.” In other words the Son of man, every
prophet, has to have God in him. Remember; Christ is Messiah. What did
Bro. Branham call us? Messiahettes; certainly not Jesus, but
Messiahettes, ambassadors for Christ.

[269]	…He’s the One you’re feeding on. You’re not feeding on a
man. A man? His words will fail, but you’re feeding on the unfailing
Body-Word of the Son of man. 

	See? Isn’t that marvelous? That’s Jn 14:10 again, just like I read
in John 6 earlier. Take away the man, for indeed, my dear friends out
there in never-never land, to say you believe, (And I doubt your
beliefs.) “he’s a man.” Take away the man, for indeed Jesus is a
man. He still is. And what is left is God—pure and simple,
God—indwelling the Son. Not the Son as though he (was) God indwelling
Himself. Oh, that’s a mystery right there. That’s about as good as
the mystery they saw when they went to China, and they found a
slant-eyed virgin and a little slant-eyed baby, and the copy underneath,
I believe, said, “The child is the husband of the mother.”

	Whoo! That’s great. That’s Catholicism. 

	Not the Son, as though he were God indwelling Himself, but God in a
man, and that man, the Only-begotten Son of God. Why? Because he was! He
was! He was the repository, whether you want it or not. God first,
Jesus, Adam. And, as in Adam all died, because that’s where it went.
And let’s get this flat: the head of the woman is the man, and the
head of the man is Christ, and the head of Christ is…nobody. Huh?
That’s a lie from hell, and that’s what they believe. The head of
Christ is God! Huh? Why do they want it? You tell me.

34.	So, we eat, we feed on the Word of God for “a man shall not live
by bread alone, but every Word that comes from the mouth of God.” Yes,
but He used a prophet’s mouth! Bro. Branham said, “Nothing outside
of this Message shall come to life.” And that’s in this hour. All
the righteous under Pentecost, Wesley and Luther will come up. And
don’t you believe they won’t. 

	He also said, “Except you drink my Blood.” ‘Drink’ means ‘to
imbibe’, or to draw water or some fluid into the mouth, and hence to
the body. Now, as Jesus was the true Manna or Bread from Heaven, he is
also the riven rock. Now, we don’t eat rocks; we don’t drink rocks.
We drink water. He was a riven rock, the rock foundation of God Himself
coming into manifestation so a Church could be built, a temple. And when
Christ was smitten, His Blood poured forth like water, so now you drink.
And what does it do? It gives life. It gives life to the body. Without
the baptism with the Holy Ghost, you’ll not understand any Word, even
though it’s plainer than the nose on your face and you’re told it a
thousand times a day, you’ll still come away saying, “Those people
believe in two gods. They’ve got two gods.”

35.	Now, this tape will bring a lot of criticism. I care less. There’s
only one thing can change me: if the Pillar of Fire came to me
personally. He ain’t going to come. If a pillar of fire came to me, I
would have to rebuke It!

	“Well, what if It was God?”

	I’m on the spot. See? By my own words, I’m justified; by my words,
I’m condemned. [Mt 12:37] So are you. The Bible says so. I’m using
the very Word of God. I’m not here to deceive anybody, neither am I
deceived.

36.	Since the life is in the Blood, his life went forth when His Blood
was shed. The life was poured back and came upon the people. Thus we can
see that even vindicated Word demands a Spirit of God anointing the
people that the Word might be effective to them. Many receive It, and
It’s only a patch on an old garment. And what happens? The patch
remains, but the garment’s gone. It’s new wine in old bottles. The
wine remains; the bottle’s gone. When Korah, Dathan, Abiram dared to
present the censers with incense, false fire, God said, “Keep the
censers! Kill them!” 

	Fire destroyed them. The new patch will go on, and the new wine will go
on, but the old garment and the old bottle is finished.

	Many receive it only as a patch on an old garment, or take what they
want only, and change it to suit themselves according to their old
teaching, and, then, add new ideas to it, to take it as a new idea,
preach it because of conscience’ sake.

37.	I wonder why this man that deserted the Word and is looking for God
to talk to him… Now he’s up in Virginia somewhere, and he’s going
to stay there till God talks to him. He’s opened himself to the devil!

	“Oh, no, Bro. Vayle. Don’t say that. A man really couldn’t
approach unto God and get the devil.”

	Cain approached to God and killed his brother! And spit in God’s
face! “Don’t you dare do that to me. Look at who I am! Don’t you
dare do that.”

	I heard a man not long ago, a preacher, who prides himself on his great
love—identical. Well, that’s the whore again, after sexual
intercourse for money and fraud, just like she ate a piece of
bread…little jam and butter…wiped her mouth…good business.

	You say, “Bro. Vayle, do you believe people are that low?”

	They are that low. Can’t you smarten’ up and understand? Examine
your own hearts in the light of the presence of God and realize what the
flesh can do. That’s why we have an intercessor. If we didn’t have
him, we’d all be on our way to hell now, and the whole plan of God is
finished.

	“But, you know, he’s really sleeping.”

	Then somebody better wake him up. What are the Jews going to do? 

38.	But, if one is truly filled with the same Spirit that came upon
Jesus, every Word will be correctly received, and then, It is reality,
the reality of God and His Word. And at that time we, in ourselves, are
one, even as Bro. Branham said,“Three times it takes place: ‘In that
day you’ll know that I am in the Father, and you in me, and I in
you.’” That was at Pentecost, and now, and at the White Throne. And
the same prophet of God categorically told us something else. He said,
“One day you’ll be saying, ‘I and my Father are one.’

	“Oh, blasphemy!”

	How are you going to call you and your Father God ‘one’, with maybe
a hundred people on the inside, and two thousand on the outside, say the
same thing as Jesus said. 

	Then you say, “But, Bro. Vayle, I’m not making myself ‘God’.

	Neither did Jesus. I told you: when I heard Michener and his book on
Africa, and I gave you the quote. I’ve got it somewhere. It’s not in
my Bible anymore, but it’s somewhere around. And the quote was,
“When a nation loses its language, the meaning of the words, there is
nothing left.”

39.	So, here you are in a shop, and the teacher, contrary to the man
who’s bossing the job, tells everyone of the young men taking the
training class, “This is a wrench,” and it’s a saw. And now they
come to the job and the man says to one, “Go and get the wrench.” He
brings back a saw.

	You say, “Bro. Vayle, it’s not that bad.”

	I can prove to you. I can prove to you it’s that bad. They don’t
understand English. They don’t understand words. They understand
nothing because “Jesus is not God.” He said so. William Branham said
so; I am saying so. The most you can say, “He’s God, but he’s not
God.” He’s the Son of God; he’s a man. He came just like we do.

	You brought everything out by your stupidity and your foolishness
because you want it exactly that way. That’s exactly the way they want
it. They went from Trinity to Jesus-Only. It’s not my fault.
“Melchisedec”, under the Seventh Seal, explains it perfectly.

40.	Now, let’s go all the way back to the Book of Genesis. In Genesis
2, we’re going to read Gen 2:8-17.

(8)	And the LORD God planted a garden eastward in Eden; and there he put
the man whom he had formed.

	Where did Bro. Branham say the Garden of Eden was? Yeah, Africa.
That’s why they’re finding all the crud down there now, and they
say, “Oh, this is the tooth of a man, between a chimpanzee and a
man.”

	Ha! Ha! Ha! No such animal. If it were, it’d have to be the tooth of
the serpent, or maybe Cain’s—Cain’s tooth.

(8)	…he put the man whom he had formed. (Now, notice: ‘the man
he’d formed’. That’s that body he’s talking about.)

(9)	And out of the ground made the LORD God to grow every tree that is
pleasant to the sight, and good for food; (And notice; It doesn’t say
these were in the garden. It says these were in the midst, so they
didn’t come out of the ground.) the tree of life also in the midst of
the garden, and the tree of knowledge of good and evil.

(10)	And (the) river went out of Eden to water the garden; and from
thence it was parted, and became into four heads.

(11)  	The…first is Pison: (and right on down It talks about it, the
third is Hiddekel and so on.)…

	Verse 15:

(15)	And the LORD God took the man, and put him into the garden of Eden
to dress it and to keep it.

(16)	And the LORD God commanded the man, saying, Of every tree of the
garden thou mayest freely eat:

(17)	But of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil, thou shalt not
eat: for in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die.

	Now you’ll notice in there two trees never came out of the ground.
And one you could not have anything to do with. Now, remember; the word
‘intercourse’ is not basically sex. Intercourse is the principle
that two people or several people can come together and talk and
intelligently communicate themselves to each other so they might have
agreement perchance, and we hope so. Actually it’s a basis of what
Bro. Branham called ‘fellowship’.

41.	Now, you can’t eat… So, let’s go to the Songs of Solomon, and
I don’t want to shock you but this is the dirty book of the
Bible—so-called—by the filthy people who don’t understand it.
Beginning at verse 3, here’s a love scene: [Song 2]

(3)	As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my (beloved)
among the sons. I sat down under the shadow (of the apple tree and the
apples were delicious.) 

	Well, can you read It any different? If you read It any different,
you’re not reading the Bible.

(3)	As the apple tree among the trees of the wood, so is my beloved.
(He’s a fruit tree.) I sat down under his shadow…

	“The Lord is my Shepherd.” He made a cloud by day to keep me from
the sun, and he put fire at night to keep me warm, and He fed me manna,
all according to God and His Holy Word. He loved me, He attracted me, He
wooed me, and “His fruit was sweet to my taste.”

(4)	He brought me to the banqueting house, and his banner over me was
love.

(5)	Stay me with flagons, comfort me with apples: for I am sick of love.

(6)	His left hand is under my head, and his right hand doth embrace me.

	Are you so stupid tonight, you don’t know that’s a sex act? It’s
an act of love, the arousal. Pornography? Let’s find out.

(7)	I charge you, O ye daughters of Jerusalem, by the roes, and by the
hinds of the field, that ye stir not up, nor awake my love, till he
please(s). 

	Don’t do anything to call off the love feast. Are you ready? Notice,
He can put her away, but she cannot put Him away. He did it and proved
it in the days when Luther, Wesley and Pentecost, when they refused to
become the further part of Him, having spirit…huh? spiritual, sexual,
affair. Huh? 

42.	“Well! Bro. Branham, you’re crude. No wonder Lee Vayle’s
crude, he had a very good mentor, but he’s out-cruded you.”

	Oh, I haven’t out-cruded him. I just don’t care anymore. I don’t
care anymore. You want to hide it? You hide it. Do what you want.

	Marriage and divorce, brother/sister. He’s putting this age away.
Why? Because she refused to become the further part of Him, the further
part of Him, the further part of Him! They blew it! They refuse! Ah,
Peter said they denied Him by having a spiritual, sexual affair to
become pregnated with the further part of His Word. 

	Do you understand? She refused. The Tree of the Knowledge of Good and
Evil was a wrong impregnation. Eve should have born the Seed, Christ,
but she refused, having the sexual, spiritual, sexual affair, and she
went to the animal, the beast, because he was suave, handsome,
devastating, grand. The beast is the same today.

	[Bro. Vayle sings:] “Oh, how I love Jesus; oh, how I love Jesus; so
how I love Jesus, I won’t refuse that affair.” Oh, no…no. The
Bride gets pregnant with the living Word of God so no seed will come
into her mind ever again to get to her spirit and get to her soul and
condemn her. This Bride has an affair with the Word where there’s
life.

43.	Now, let’s get this flat, brother/sister: the conduit of the blood
is the flesh. The conduit of the Holy Ghost is the Word, and the Word
was made flesh because there was a life, a Spirit, called the ‘Soul of
God’, that Jesus got from God. And the same thing with Adam. The same
thing today. That’s why Jesus was born of a virgin, why the Bride must
become a virgin. And Paul, the apostle, told the truth. If you don’t
believe I’m telling you one hundred percent truth, and I got it from
my mentor, William Branham, vindicated prophet of Almighty God of the
same stature of Moses and Paul… Oh, I love that. 

	He said: [2 Cor 11:2]

(2)	I’m jealous over you with a Godly jealousy: (I can feel in my very
bones.) I’ve espoused you to one husband, (You are his wife. Watch
it!) that I may present you as a chaste virgin….

(3)	But I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through
subtilty, so your minds (Don’t talk about the heart. Talk about the
mind because the brain is in the body and the mind is in the brain and
the spirit interlinks, bringing you to a three.) be corrupted from the
simplicity (of) Christ.

(4)	For if he that…preaches another Jesus…

	Wrong seed. Don’t tell me that they’ve drunk his blood. No. But
they crept in, and pretty soon the light began to fade. Let me tell you
this, brother/sister: Eve was a beautiful virgin. Adam was a beautiful,
young man. And they should have, under the right conditions, propagated
the earth to bring forth a beautiful species. But look where we are
today. So, the same with the church: that seed can be buried in there,
but it’s buried in a rotten apple. There’s a problem. The seed will
always come through; you’ll never change the seed. Paul said, “Look,
another Jesus,” and so on.

44.	Now then, we can look at something that I like to look at, and I’m
speaking strictly for Lee Vayle, but I will take you to Scripture in my
speaking and the illustration is compatible with the Word, so I’m not
one bit off the Word. But I want to say this: the word ‘drink’ is
taken from the same root word, or is the root word, actually, for the
word ‘fatness’ which signifies the oil, plump condition—healthy,
plump. Can anyone think of a phrase in the last day that describes the
children of God concerning plumpness? “Calves in the stall.”

45.	So, we go to Romans 11, and Paul is speaking of the grafting in of
the Gentiles. We read verse 15:

(15)	For if the casting away of them be the reconciling of the world,
what shall the receiving of them be, but life from the dead? (If they
ever get grafted back into that tree, the Resurrection will take place.)

(16)	For if the firstfruit be holy, the lump is also holy: and if the
root be holy, so are the branches. 

	So, that means…telling you right here: God is going to bring forth a
perfect, Bride Church unto Himself. Why? Because it’s in the seed!
Cover the dishpan, spray it with oil, throw glue on it, or let a skunk
come by and spray it, you’re not going to change that life that’s in
the seed. You can’t change seed. You can dabble with it, (God allowed
that.) but not with the seed of God. You cannot be white/black; you
cannot be righteous/wicked; you cannot be dead/alive; drunk/sober; you
name it. It’s impossible.

46.	Now: 

(17)	…If some of the branches be broken off, (And they were—Seven
Church Ages back there.) and thou, being a wild olive tree, (Coming from
the Gentiles) wert graffed in among them, and with them partakest of the
root and fatness of the olive tree.

	There you are. The drink. What is the tree’s drink? It’s the sap,
and the tree is the carrier. The life and the Word has always been the
determining factor. You cannot get rid of Rhema-Logos because that is
Word of Spirit and Life. Talk about Rhema without Logos, you’re going
to hell. I challenge you. Talk about Logos without Rhema, you’ve left
your Bible. Let me tell you this: in my humble opinion: as you and I are
genetically-coded, even though we have problems, I say God was the first
genetically-coded One. He doesn’t have problems. And if we were in
Him, He’s going to bring forth perfect sons and perfect daughters to
the praise of the glory of His grace, of all of those who trust in Jesus
Christ our Lord.

	What are we partaking of? We’re partaking of the fatness. And at the
end time, Bro. Branham said, “If He ever put forth another tree,
it’d be a genuine Pentecostal tree, which is what? People being
baptized with the Holy Ghost, God dividing Himself, and God coming right
to the apostle Paul, setting the whole thing in order. The same at the
end time: alpha is omega. You can’t change it. Try, if you want to try
it.

47.	A good woman is a good thing. I know that. I know it by real women.
I’ve met real women that are genuine, just as real as any man ever
walked. It’s true. She’s a byproduct and a piece of him, and in the
fall he listened to her. She’s just a part of him, but it’s up to
her. She can be made so filthy, and she’s given the right to refuse or
accept. 

	The church refused.	The thing they shouldn’t have done, they did not
refuse. Sexual affair with the world, creeds and dogmas and all the
filth. The affair that she should have not refused, she did. 

48.	Look at the age we’re living in: 2 Peter 2. After we have the
epiphanea, the understanding that Jesus has risen from the dead and God
is now doing by his prophet exactly what He did in the days of Jesus,
which is Isaiah 42 coming to pass, Matthew 12 absolutely. He says:

(1)	But as there were false prophets (way back there)…

	After this there won’t be false prophets, we can laugh at them. This
guy running around the world…discern, everything else. I don’t care
how he’d come and stand here. Give me one “THUS SAITH THE LORD.”
Take one challenge. You can’t hide if you’d tried. Let him try and
do it…some little gift. And he said, “Bro. Branham, especially Lee
Vayle, messed the Bride up.” He’s going to come and unmess her. Want
to sing a little song, Bro. John? Bro. John made a little song up. We
won’t sing it tonight… We’ll get it later. All right.

49.	(1)	But there were false prophets…among the people, even as there
shall be false teachers among you, who privily shall bring in damnable
heresies…

	Now, listen. The teaching is what’s playing the important part today
because most Branhamites refuse anything to do with the attempted,
duplicated ministry of Bro. Branham, or attempted Word, that he tries to
produce by reason of what he is producing, that God allows him to
produce, and the gifts. But boy he can come and teach and snow
everybody, just got to come and be nice. Now, of course, Bro. Vayle is
not sanctified and doesn’t have any love. I’ve got the Word, and I
haven’t done what David did yet, and, of course, never.

50. [From “Spoken Word Is Original Seed”]

[88-3]	We saw this, and that’s how adultery, that’s how adultery is
committed spiritually, when you, knowing better by the Word of God, by
the intercourse of the mind, take in the lie of the devil against the
Word of God. 

	And if that man’s already married, you produce the first bastard.
Because a bastard child can only come from two people already married,
getting together, and having a child, which would be the man and a
woman, man and woman. I’ve got it right in my Bible here; Bro. Branham
said so. 

[88-3]	Then she’s committed adultery. …When the Bride of Christ lets
man-made creeds and dogmas take the place of the Word of God, she’s
committing adultery. 

	She’s a whore. She didn’t lock her mind up. So, they’re praying
against the Word of God. And you know what? God’s going to answer
their prayers, because the Bible says so. It sends “Leanness to the
souls.” He’ll send the flesh like He sent the quail, and they
won’t know what to do with it, except they’ll be so hungry for it,
they’ll rip into it without killing it. In other words, they’ll keep
defying every Word of God, as Bro. Branham said, “Add a word, add a
word, add a word, add a word, never quit; take a word, take a word, take
a word, never quit.” 

51.	So, now we’ve got a female God, women running the church,
homosexuals taking control. You can curse and swear in public, but you
can’t have prayer in the schools. They’ve taught the kids how to run
wild, to be immoral and filthy. They’re trying to patch it up. Good
God. They might as well try to vulcanize hell, just to think their idea
of birth control is going to work. Sex doesn’t come that way. Eve made
no preparation, neither did Adam. Neither did the beast need any. 

	It’s gotten worse and worse and worse, and it’ll get worse and
worse and worse. And now they’re finally hitting the poor whites.
Before it was the poor blacks that were doing all the pregnancies out of
wedlock—and the Hispanics. And now they’re finding the white,
beautiful majority…

	“So nice, you know, us white people. God, we’re so beautiful.
God’s got to be white.” 

	I doubt that very much. They find they’re multiplying,
illegitimately, like a bunch of fleas on a dog.

52.	“Except you eat his flesh and drink his blood, you have no
life…” [Jn 6:53] and there is no life outside of this Message, and
nothing outside this Message will come to life because it’s
Rhema-logos, spirit and life. That’s the way It is. Do what you want
about It. 

	I know it’s the truth, not because I feel good. That’s not the
point. It’s the Word. And I know I can read. I know I can talk, and I
can talk what I read, and I can be very, very precise, as well as very,
very cutting. But I want to tell you: it takes a tough sword to cut
through this corruption we’ve got today, where men’s minds and
hearts, especially the consciences seared with a hot iron—the heart
has turned to rock, as even the prophet said, “Oh, would to God,”
like the other prophets: “If I had a quill, or a pen made of steel,
that I could write on the flinty rock…” It won’t do a bit of good.
God used His own finger on the flinty rock and they broke it and went on
their way carousing, careening in lust and rotten sin and degradation,
and the golden calf took over, like it’s doing today. Well, it’s
going to happen. 

	Let’s rise and be dismissed.

	

	Heavenly Father, we come to You again tonight, as we depart from here,
going our separate ways, Lord, knowing that this is Your Word, Lord, and
no matter how we emphasize this and that, or profitize this or that,
it’s not in us at all. It’s in Your Word, O God, and we feel the
great depths of it and the satisfying portion of it, not that we make
ourselves anything, but we ourselves are in fear and trembling
concerning It, that we should misconstrue one thing or for one moment be
off one Word. But how can we be, when it’s vindicated. And surely,
Lord God, if we had the ability back there to know at that particular
time, that this was a man, something within us made us to know this was
a man to hear. Certainly, then, we know those men we should not hear, as
they did in the first age when they said, “You’re false
apostles…get out of here. You don’t say what Paul said.”

	And so today we say what Bro. Branham said, hopefully, word by word,
Lord. We are getting the truth and disseminating thereof.

	Bless Your people tonight, Father. May there not be one sick amongst
us, even, Lord. I’ve got pretty good health concerning everything,
still got a lot of things that I could lose, and many people do lose by
this time. But You’re good to me, and I appreciate it so much. And if
one person can get a little help, one person can be lifted up, one
person can be enthused within the spirit by the true Word of the living
God, where that body, soul, and spirit, especially the mind, the spirit
and the soul, come together, Lord, and rejoice in that Word, drinking
that Word in, and breathing it literally out in their words to the
people, building each other up in the most holy faith… That’s what
it’s all about. Help us to do that, Lord, be in that position and to
do it, and never abstain from doing, but to do it, and not fail.

	Now to the King eternal, immortal, invisible, the only-wise God, be all
power, honor, and glory, through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen. 

	“Take the Name of Jesus With You.”
