Spoken Word Is the Original Seed #13 Book 2 Exact Way to Bring Forth Progeny Word Takes Flesh July 18, 1993 Shall we pray. Heavenly Father, we thank You that we know the truth and the truth always what it was, to set people free. And we have been set free from our own thinking and understanding and ideas, and creeds and dogmas and traditions, and those things which are of the enemy especially, Lord, and have come to the place where we know that we have the true, vindicated Word and the true revelation, only praying that Your Spirit which You have given us to that end will help us and we might know the things that are given to us of God, which things are ours, and how and what to do, Lord, even as we see that outlined in Scripture. And we pray, Lord, that we shall always give in to You, Lord, and always be happy with the thought of stepping aside, as Bro. Branham himself said his greatest gift was being able to get out of the way. And we realize that’s the truth. May It be with us, Lord, in a measure that we ought to have and to use for Your honor and for Your glory. And then, Lord, to remember, how it is, (I do especially.) when Bro. Branham put confidence in me, Lord, to come to him at any time, any place because I did not use him, but stood back and reverenced him and honored him for what he was. And Lord, today it’s the same: we don’t want to try to use You. We want, Lord, and don’t even want to be used of You as though there was something in there that was going to make us something extra special and great, but, Lord, we want to be able to know that You have confidence in us, that we’re not trying to use You, that we love You, that we recognize You and know our relationship as father and son and children and brothers, and down here sisters and brothers, in a unity of love and understanding—a family relationship right from God Himself as the very mind of God, the very God Himself a part of that life, Lord. These things we want to be at home with it and at ease with this morning, and just thank You for Your help, Lord, to make it true, because we know this is what should be, and of what should be, then this is it. So, Father God, in these last closing hours, the great closing hours, Lord, of the Presence and the manifestation and the ministry of the Son of man, Lord, and the great Epiphanea, all these things, Lord, at this time, they’re burst upon us Father, not just purporting as though it was auguring something, actually started something which will end only, Lord, like for a new beginning again, right there in the New Jerusalem, because we don’t know too much about it, we’ll know as we go along. These things, Father, we’re certainly sure of, and we thank You for them in Jesus’ Name. Amen. You may be seated. 1. Now, we’ll go rapidly, and we won’t take too long. We won’t take the hour and a half this morning, but getting into number 13, of “The Spoken Word Is Original Seed”… Before we start reading on page 30, we want to review again some very wonderful truths set forth by Bro. Branham. 2. Number one: based on Gen 1:26a and 27. (That’s “Let’s make man in our image and after our likeness and then give them dominion.”) we have the original, spoken Word… Rather [Bro. Vayle starts over.] based on Gen 1:26a and 27 and enlarged upon in Gen 26b and 28… I’d better read that so you’re going to get the picture of what I’m driving at: the actual original words, the spoken Word original seed in its absolute, definitive sense. (26) …Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: (Period. That’s the definitive. That’s it. Don’t waver from it. Never mind anything else. Anything else is an interpolation or an enlargement. And notice 27.) (27) So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him. Now, you say, “Why do I stop there?” Because that’s what It says, “Let us make man in our image after our likeness.” Now, that’s the big thing right there. 3. Now, you may say, “Well, what’s the enlargement?” (28) …and (let them) have dominion over the fish of the sea, …the fowl of the air, …over (the cattle over all the earth, every creeping thing that creeps upon the earth, and God blessed them, created them male and female,) God blessed them, ….said, Be fruitful, and multiply, replenish the earth, …subdue it: …have dominion… Now, you could see in there man was going to be given a battle. The battle was going to be spiritual, over satanic power, because Satan had been cast down to earth. He had been booted out of heaven where he took over about a third of the angels, according to Bro. Branham. He came down to earth: “thou wast in Eden.” Now, that’s all peripheral. See, in my books, that is just peripheral, although it’s part of it and you can’t do without it. One, you see what I am going to do and what I’m going to do with what I do. I’m going to make man in my image. Now, here’s what I’m going to do with it. 4. So, based on Gen 1:26a (I read It.) and 27, “God created man,” enlarged upon by Gen 1:26b: “Let them,” and 28, “Let them,” we have the original, spoken Word as the original seed to bring forth progeny in the exact mold and manifestation of that spoken Word. Now, that’s the way it’s got to be. No matter what you look at, no matter what you see, no matter what you think you’re seeing or hearing, or what you think you’re hearing, forget it. Forget it! This is what God is going to stand by, and it’s here somewhere, even if it’s wrapped as… What is it Churchill said about Russia, “A riddle within an enigma”? In other words, a riddle within a riddle: a puzzle within a puzzle. Don’t let it fool you; don’t let if bluff you. This has to be. Now, that’s the original. God cannot sidestep it. There’s nothing that He Himself can do about It to take a part away or add a part to It. I read that to you. We took that right to John 9. Saw the same thing right today. Forget it. Don’t fool with it. See? 5. Now, since this did not come to pass, but rather, the opposite, with death harvesting every successive or following generation, it is indeed obvious the dominant seed that Eve should have born was superseded by another seed bearing death and servitude rather than life and dominion. She didn’t have it. She did not have it. It shows it right here she didn’t have it. She was to have it, but didn’t have it. So, it’s got to be somewhere, no matter the addenda. Now, the addenda was Satan coming and saying to her, “Now, just a minute, let me just modify that Word a little bit. Let me change It.” The minute the Word was changed God is no longer in it or with it or for it, but against it. You’re going to have a sweet job fighting God, and ‘I’ mean ‘you and I’ both. 6. Now, since Gen 3:20 plainly states that Eve was and is the mother of all living, and 1 Jn 3:12, spoken of by the apostle John, and Jn 8:44, spoken by Jesus, plainly declare that there are two kinds of seed in the earth: one of God and one by the devil. And furthermore, this is attested to by Jesus in Matthew 13. Thus, we see that, though Eve should have brought forth correct children, she brought forth not according to original, spoken Word but according to a Satanized, animalized version as found in Genesis 3. That’s why you’ve got today women preachers and men preachers that are homosexuals: rotten, brute beasts from hell. Now, don’t try to change my mind, kid. You can’t do it. It’s ‘live, die, sink, or swim’. I ain’t about to sink. And if I die, it’s only going to be corporal. So, don’t worry about it. Now, that’s a major truth that Bro. Branham brought forth. 7. Number two: Bro. Branham also, mentions another woman. It is Mary, the mother of Jesus. She correctly brought forth a child according to the Word, (“Be it unto me according to Thy Word.”) who will, in future time with all other sons, bring about the manifestation of Gen 1:26-27, 26a and 26b: true sons of God; true human beings in a glorified, elevated state wherein they shall reign and rule with Him. 8. Now, since we see… And I’m just going fast, because we’ve been through this. Now, since we see the rejection and the rejecting of truth by Eve and the reception by Mary, we realize that, unless there is a Bride who can come to terms with the truth, there is no way that dominion will be restored to the sons of God by Christ Jesus. Or in plain English, there’ll be no way, nowhere anywhere there’s going to be manifested sons of God, period. It’s impossible to be otherwise. There must be those sons. And they will have dominion, and they will reign and rule through Jesus Christ. Now, remember; Jesus never came by sex. That’s what you’re looking at. 9. Now, since we see the rejection of truth by Eve and reception by Mary, we realize that unless there is a Bride who can come to terms with the truth, there is no way that dominion will be restored to the sons of God by Christ Jesus. Consider Acts 3:19-26; this is explicit. Now, what I said here, you heard me say: unless they “come to terms with the truth,” which must mean a vindicated revelation, because the Bible has been up for grabs for four thousand solid years. 10. Now, in Acts 3:19b, here’s what Peter is preaching: (19b) …when the times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; (I could even read verse 19.) (19) (Change your mind) therefore, and be converted (Get the Holy Ghost.), that your sins may be blotted out, (now, even) when times of refreshing shall come from the presence of the Lord; (It says in the margin here, that ‘so may come times of refreshing from the face of the Lord’.) (20) And (that) he (may) send Jesus Christ… “There’s going to be a time of refreshing,” and Bro. Branham by divine revelation and vindication said, “That was the great healing revival.” “Well, I don’t believe that.” Who cares what you believe. Listen; I don’t want to hurt your feelings, but you’re not doing me a favor sitting here. You’re before the White Throne. And I’m going to face you, just as sure as you’re alive, right when the Pillar of Fire stands there and I stand there. Either (Listen:) this man is right and that’s the Pillar of Fire, and Jehovah’s in there, or hey, let’s get out of here. What are you wasting your time for? Merciful God, just get better health so you can kick your heels higher and live more like the devil. That’s right. I’m quoting you the Bible. Let’s eat, drink, and be merry. At least, for God’s sake, get drunk…or whatever. 11. Now, he said, “This was a healing revival.” And he said, “There can be no true healing revival unless a fresh message follows it, because God does not vindicate the same, tired, old Word.” Now, if you don’t believe It, fine! Go someplace else where they preach crap. You’re not doing me a favor. See? You’re hurting yourself, too, because I’m going to preach the truth, by the grace of God. Now, notice: (20) …he shall send Jesus Christ, which was (appointed) unto you: (only declared and preached, but it’s actually ‘appointed’.) (21) Whom the heaven must (retain… That’s) receive (means ‘retain’) until the times of (restoration) of all things, which God hath spoken by the mouth of all his holy prophets since the world began. It tells you right there, that the Word has to be restored dependant upon a fresh breeze, the Holy Spirit breathing, as It says over there in the Scripture, “the valley of dry bones—Ezekiel—can these bones live?” Then he said, “A wind came.” And the presence of the Lord, (That’s right there. [Points to the picture]) in the Pillar of Fire, with the prophet, has brought an unparalleled healing revival that eclipsed even the revival that Jesus Christ Himself had. 12. Now, I read that to you last Sunday. Do you remember me reading it? Or did I lose you back there? That’s in John 5, anyway, if I can find it. And in Jn 5:19: (19) …Jesus answered and said, (Truly, truly), I say unto you, The Son can do nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these doeth also the Son likewise. (20) For the Father loveth the Son, and sheweth him all things that (He) himself doeth: and he will shew him greater works than these, that ye may marvel. What does that mean? It means that Jesus is just like Bro. Branham. “I was only a voice of one standing there.” So, at the end time, God is going to show Jesus the great ministry that starts bringing the church under control and under headship of Almighty God to become the bride of the Lord Jesus Christ. God Himself is doing this according to 1 Corinthians 15 based upon 1 Th 4:13-16. And I’ve gone over It many, many, many times with you. 13. Now, It says here, that Jesus Himself cannot leave the heavens until the presence of God is here in a mighty healing revival that brings the restored Word. Now, you can say what you want. But you say, “Bro. Vayle, that’s just your idea.” That’s not my idea! You don’t believe this at all. Now, if I’m hitting hard this morning, I might just have a purpose in it—maybe uncover something. You ain’t going to be happy around me, so don’t pretend you are. If you are unhappy, don’t pretend you are. Go where you can be happy. I’m showing you the truth. Brother Branham said, “His picture was taken.” He said, “Moses went down into Egypt; God did not only appear along with him in signs and wonders, but He Himself appeared in a Pillar of Fire upon Mount Sinai, so today, and we have His picture.” Yeah. 14. Now, let these guys that criticize me for having such a terrible spirit. Let them match my preaching this morning. If I’ve only got a mental knowledge, a little mechanics that can preach like this, I’d like to hear them tell me something. You know where they’ll go right to? They’ll leave the Word of God and go into a bunch of baloney, and lead them right to themselves and let you know that they’re great, marvelous guys. Oh, they’re wonderful; they’re so sweet; and they’re so wonderful. How many years do I have to keep telling you that, when Judas was with Jesus, he didn’t say, “Listen, that guy calls himself a prophet; he ain’t no prophet. He thinks he’s Messiah; he ain’t no Messiah. Now, that raising of the dead, I can tell you about it. That’s the devil.” He kissed Jesus affectionately. 15. Millions of people have a false love toward God. They’ll die for Him, give their bodies, but for the true God and truth, they’ll crucify Him and spit on Him. Now, don’t tell me I’m a liar, because I can read It in Hebrews. And don’t tell me you can sit there and not do it because you’re somebody. You say, “Well, listen to what Bro. Branham said; ‘You who sit here this morning and you say you would have known and you would not have crucified Him and done to Him what they did in Jerusalem, had you been there,’ he said, ‘You’re the ones that would do it.’” I’m not hitting… I hope you understand I’m not trying to hit anybody here in the congregation. These tapes go out. I get a lot of flak. I might as well get the full bundle of it. I don’t mind They’re not going to hurt me at all. It only makes me stronger in the truth. All right. 16. Let’s keep reading. Now, he said: [Acts 3] (21) …(restoration) of all things which God has spoken by the mouth of all His holy prophets since the world began, (22) For Moses truly said unto the fathers, A prophet shall the Lord your God raise up unto you of your brethren, like unto me; him you shall hear in all things whatsoever he saith unto you. (23) …it will come to pass, that every soul, which shall not hear that prophet, shall be destroyed from among the people. Now, what did Bro. Branham say about that prophet? God is His Own prophet. And who was in that prophet? Jesus. God was the same as he was in Moses; the same as in Paul; the same as in William Branham. God is still His Own prophet, and He interprets His Word by bringing It to pass. See? I love quoting the prophet because he’s my man. To be honest flat, I ain’t got nothing to apologize for. Oh, no, no, no, no, never. 16. Now It says right here, “It will come to pass that every soul that doth not hear that prophet shall be destroyed from among the people.” Now, listen! Moses is talking about that prophet. That prophet’s Messiah. Messiah is God manifest. The Rock that followed them was Messiah, give them water. The cloud that followed by day, give them shade, Messiah. God in a Pillar of Cloud; God in a whirlwind. Jehovah God with all His great titles. But watch, yea, “and all the prophets from Samuel.” Now, watch! This Peter, full of the Holy Ghost prophesying, is going right back to Moses who indicated that prophet. And that prophet is God Himself and then he goes back to Samuel where you will notice discernment comes in and this is for the end time. And if you don’t hear that prophet, you’ll be destroyed: lock, stock, and barrel. That’s the Book of Malachi. And that prophet’s Elijah. Come on, what more do you want? What more… Come on, what do you want out of life? Somebody come by and do handsprings? That’s what some of the people in this congregation wanted. “Oh, if this isn’t it, I’ll know the real thing.” This is the real thing, what they’re dealing with now is a lie. The soul of Jesus is not the Pillar of Fire. The Pillar of Fire is Jehovah Himself. Jesus had his own soul. Thou will not leave my soul in hell. Who’s he talking to? God, His Father, Elohim. Don’t tell me I’m mixed up. Come on, stand beside me. Come on, I mean it before God. Take the challenge this morning and see what happens. I’m not afraid of anybody. Don’t think… 17. Listen, under anointing years ago when I discerned, I challenged; I was afraid of nobody. I’ve seen devils humble themselves and walk out and people healed. I’m not expecting a miracle, but anything could happen as far as I am concerned. My God’s not dead. I could be, but He isn’t. And I’m not being dramatic; I’m just telling you the truth. You do what you want with it. Many people thought when I preached this years ago, I was talking about William Branham was God. William Branham wasn’t God. He isn’t God. I defied him back in 1958, when that spirit of hell was there from those Canadians that came down, the Sothmans, and the Simpsons, and the rest of them. And I’d hear Bro. Branham preaching, and I’d say, “Merciful God, this man thinks he’s Jesus Christ. What mess have I gotten into with him?” Away from the meeting, everything sweet. I knew he wasn’t. So, one day I found out. I was told they said, “You know that bunch believes William Branham is Jesus Christ.” I said, “That’s where it’s coming from, eh?” I said, “Bro. Branham, do you know these people make you Jesus Christ?” He said, “Yes, Bro. Vayle, I do. And they’ve either struck or will strike a metal saying, ‘William Branham is Jesus Christ’ and they’ll baptize in my name.” I said, “Bro. Branham, I love you, but you are not Jesus Christ. You never died for me. You never shed your blood. I love you, but you’re not Jesus Christ.” He never was, he never will be: to be God to the people, certainly; no problem. No problem. Just as our legate from here, going to Japan, going even to the pope, is the same as our president going, representing all of us. No problem. I’ve got no problem with protocol. But I sure got problems with the word of the devil. 18. And he said, “and going to Samuel.” And William Branham constantly quoted Samuel. Now, what I’m trying to show you is this; you turn on God this time, you’re in Hebrews 6 and Malachi 4, and it’s over. “Well, Bro. Vayle, I’m waiting for White Throne.” Oh, can’t you understand this is the White Throne? It’s the Ancient of Days. Oh, it’s all right, I suppose. Well, I’m not going to get discouraged. Let’s just keep moving. This is the explicit truth, and it is for our day. 19. It is also 2 Th 1:7-10: “When you that are troubled rest with us, when God Himself comes down from heaven,” the Judge, to destroy one side, and the other side not destroyed—one is calves fatted in the stall, prized, prime, the other is destruction, (Brother Branham said, “Cannon fodder.”) it’s Eph 1:17: God Himself in the form of the Holy Ghost, revealing Himself in His Word. 20. So, as Bro. Branham says, “Eve was a harlot. She had a whore’s womb because she had a whore’s mind.” That’s 2 Corinthians tells you that. Now, in Rev 2:18-23, based on 2 Corinthians 11, when she became an insipient whore, she becomes a dyed-in-the-wool whore. And how is she that dyed-in-the-wool whore? Because she has the church laying down the precepts and the traditions and speaking as though it is God, thereby coming into the church you have salvation. Hogwash! You come into Christ. And that whore had daughters. And you know, what’s promised in that chapter 2 of the Great Tribulation is promised to that old whore, and it’s fulfilled in this hour where all the daughters are going to be burned, because they’re a part of her. Now, this is Romans 17 also, where It tells about the destruction of the great harlot. 21. Now, the point is… Here’s the point I’m driving at: I started number one showing you something went haywire; the Word of God can and will be fulfilled. It must be. But at this particular time, it is completely veiled to the world and to people. It’s under the covers, as it were, because you’re not seeing any ruling or reigning, you’re not seeing anything that looks like Gen 1:26-27, and we showed you what went haywire. They got from behind the Word. Now, remember; Eve played the prostitute, but Mary did not. One did not say, “Be it unto me according to Thy Word.” She said, “Be it unto me according to Satan’s explanation of God’s Word.” You know that’s what she said. And it was. Mary said, “Be it unto me according to Thy Word,” which is literal. Eve didn’t believe It was literal. She got fooled; It was literal. Now, this woman, Mary, brings forth a child. Now the church is in this terrible condition. Now, what I’m saying is this: can the church bring Christ back to earth? No, Eve could not bring the royal Seed. Why? Because she got the wrong source. Mary brought the royal Seed. 22. Look at Abraham before the showdown. He had Hagar—brought nothing but crud in the earth. Sarah was so stupid; she said, “Well, have a baby by Hagar.” Well, any red-blooded man would jump at the chance. And she said, “It will be my baby. She can bear the baby across my knees.” Oh God, you talk slop and mess and blood and goo, stink and everything else! That is going to make that child from a wrong woman, her seed? So, Sarah fooled around until one day God rebuked her, slap, bang in the puss. He said, “Abraham, you’re still going to have that child by Sarah.” And she said, “Ha, ha, ha, ha, ha, that will be the day.” When God revealed her heart, that’s the day she knew there was a God in heaven and that God’s Word did not fail. 23. And that’s what we got right today from Heb 4:12. And Bro. Branham said, “The last sign you’ll see…the Church has seen her last sign, which is God and Abraham, and Sarah within the tent, securely veiled within there, but laughing and thinking she was hidden from God.” No, the Church cannot bring Christ back in flesh; there is no way. There’ll be a Rapture; there’ll be no way. There is a Resurrection; there is no way. There’ll be a Wedding Supper; no way, no way—under the present conditions. See? No way can she bring it back, not unless she rejects everything but the Truth. And now the Truth must be vindicated. Come on, you know that as well as I do. Hey, listen; if this isn’t vindicated, forget it. Forget it! You’ve got no choice. See. Either the Bible is true or it’s not. 24. Now, Bro. Branham said, “Now, you brethren, I want you to know what I’ve done all the time is because of this.” He preached “Spoken Word Is Original Seed”, and he’s showing them how error crept in and ‘what I have done’. Listen, what he did has nothing to do with it, unless it’s vindication. What is my getting born, getting married, having children, dropping dead got to do with it? Nothing. What’s airplanes flying in the sky, smart men breaking the atom, smart people knowing what’s way deep down below tissues the scientists never heard of before, where life really is—not in your cells, but down in sub-cells… High power from microscopes don’t even see it. What’s that got to do with it? See? Science… There’s nothing can do anything except the vindication, that’s all. If we don’t have some vindication... Then when you’ve got vindication, that’s the time you lose your own thinking. You just go right off into space and forget the whole thing. 25. Now, we saw this picture. I’ve been preaching for two messages, three hours already, on this whoring mind. I’m just going to read rapidly and go now back in page 26. Brother Branham says: [SPOKEN WORD ORIGINAL SEED JEFF.IN. V-3 N-2 62-0318] [26-1] Oh, my, we’re going to hit something real rich…from Genesis to Revelation. Notice, and she and her daughters had a whore’s womb. Only death can come from them. If you want to join organizations, think you’re all right, you see where you’re landing. You’re landing right in the midst of death. Just exactly. (That’s Revelation 2, she gets thrown in the Great Tribulation, and we’re on the verge now. …) [26-2] Now, let’s go back…and pick up again what I said last Sunday…“The Gate to the Soul.” Now remember? …there is a womb of the physical; …womb of the spirit. Do you believe that? There is a spiritual womb…a physical womb. And the mind is the womb of the spirit. (That’s on page 26. “The mind is the womb of the spirit.” That’s right.) Why? …remember, I told you last Sunday…drew it out here for you. …five senses…on the outside: …five on the inside: Now, on the life side there’s only one. That’s you’re on the basis of free moral agency to accept, take in, or let out. He said, “They’re only within the soul. There is just one principle. That’s choice, either to receive or reject the Word.” Now it comes to the mind—boing—hits me like that; now what’s inside? Hey, great, I’ll take it. I don’t think that’s good, I don’t want it. It’s finished; comes by your mind and spirit. 26. [26-3] Now. that’s how adultery is committed spiritually. When you knowing better by the Word of God, by the intercourse of the mind, take in a lie of the devil against the Word of God—that’s exactly what Eve did. With the spiritual intercourse first that came by believing Satan’s lie in the womb of her mind, that polluted her soul, set death in her soul; then the natural act took place. Now, listen! Don’t you see what we’re talking about in this church here? And understand why I get fired up when people come in and deliberately say things the prophet didn’t say—very smug—to lead you off. You say, “Bro. Vayle, you don’t sound very happy with us at times. We might think in our souls that, you know, you’d be happier we’re led off.” Now, you’re misreading me one hundred percent. Except for you, I’d be out of here. Forget it. You’re more my concern than you’ll ever know. Because I’ve got an obligation to Almighty God to preach the truth, and I will stand in judgment. I’m standing right now in your behalf, and if I’ve told you a lie, I’ll answer for it. Now, listen! You’re going to be called to task because you believed the lie even though I tell it, but I’ll be more called to task than you are. When people in this church open their minds to be deliberate against the Word of Almighty God that’s vindicated right there, and you kept falling for it, I just say one thing: don’t bother coming back to me. It ain’t no use; not going to do you any good. You say, “Just a minute, Bro. Vayle.” Don’t just a minute me. I can’t supersede God. You reject, it’s already finished. “Well, Bro. Vayle.” No, not what Bro. Vayle says. I’m preaching from this Bible, as shown by Bro. Branham. 27. So actually now, he said: [26-3] …that’s the only way a woman can ever commit adultery against her husband, is to first let some man talk her into it and then receive another man that’s not her husband. Then she’s committed adultery. And when the bride of Jesus Christ lets man-made creeds and dogmas take the place of the Word of God, she is committing adultery. (2 Corinthians says so.) [26-4] Did not Jesus say, “Whosoever looketh upon a woman has committed adultery with her already in his heart—looks upon a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her already”? Why? He let it come into his mind. That’s the womb; it starts the thing moving. Satan came in. And there where he sowed…the Word: (That’s his own word, you see, that’s the same place God sows the Word, right up here.) [27-1] God said, “Someday I’ll bring the life into the earth and remold it, replenish the earth.” What Eve failed to do, Mary did. She took the Word. Eve took Satan’s lie. Mary took God’s Word. And through Mary’s seed replenishes the earth again through the Bride, through the Word, and will bring up the Millennium. (That’s exactly true.) Through that goes forth the Word, and the Word is planted into every predestinated heart, and the Spirit comes down and waters it, and they cannot die. “I’ll raise him up again in the last day...” Now, listen! If we’re a part of the Word, we should have the Word body. What happened? God would not let us have the Word body. Now, listen! Doesn’t the horse bring forth a horse body? Come on! Doesn’t a cow life bring forth a cow life body? Then listen: if we’re Word, we should have brought forth or had a Word body. We didn’t have it. We bypassed it. We bypassed it. Come on, smarten up! Prophet said so. It’s easy as pie if you just listen. Like he said, “It’s out here in all nature facing you. Nature’s in continuity. God’s in continuity with nature.” But only revelation from the Word by the Holy Spirit by a prophet will give you the truth about God and bring the whole thing together. So, that Word should have brought forth a Word body, but we bypassed it. Jesus never bypassed his. Oh, where are these people that say we’re preaching two gods? Merciful God. If you can take that stuff, you just go live with them. If you can sit down to dog puke and enjoy it, just be my guest. 28. Ah, listen, I’ve heard a lot preachers, read a lot of books, nobody ever touched Bill Branham. Put that down flat. And nobody ever will. Nobody’s ever going to touch him, not in this generation or the generation in the world to come. See? You can relate to what he is saying because he tells you by nature exactly how it all took place. We should have had it. We didn’t, and he tells you why. We bypassed it in order to be tempted and tested. How could you possibly be Word with the Word body and be tested? You’d come back just like Jesus—wham—with the Word of God. Flatten the devil every single time. When was Jesus ever flattened by the devil? Come on, come on! He gave up his life even. You say, “Well, he was tempted in all points like as we.” That’s no problem at all. Show me one place where he fell for anything. Show me one place where he failed to remember who he was. We don’t have that; we weren’t meant to have it. We were meant to be tested. This is why there is so much sanctification, so much glory coming up because, as Bro. Branham said, like Irenaeus, “God being a Savior, it was necessary to predestinate a sinner in order to give Himself reason and purpose of being: God being a Healer, necessary to predestinate a man to be sick to give Himself reason and purpose of being.” And because of that God shares His glory and gives the greater glory to those that learn to get out of the way and will get out of the way. See? Now, I hope you’re beginning to see and let your minds go a little more than usual so you can rejoice in these things that are in the Word here. You see? 29. Now, Bro. Branham said, “Though by the baptism with the Holy Ghost this body here becomes, not truly commensurate, but in this hour, an earthly hour, and under these conditions, it’s commensurate to that degree. But you still sin, otherwise why would you need, not a sacrifice, but a Mediator and an Intercessor.” Don’t need a sacrifice; you already had it. 30. Now: [27-1] And through Mary’s seed replenishes the earth again through His Bride, through the Word, and will bring up the Millennium. (See, there you are. That’s…it’s coming to pass.) Through that goes forth the Word, and the Word is planted into every predestinated heart, and the Spirit comes down and waters it, and they cannot die. “I’ll raise him up again in the last day.” Oh, brother and sister, that’s real. [27-2] What is it? The mind is the womb for the Spirit…to take in or let out. That’s how they commit adultery, is taking—let some Satan devil spirit put in…something against the Word of God; then she’s committed adultery. Eve received…the wrong seed word, (She received the wrong seed-word, before she received the wrong seed physically; it made her pregnant.) Satan’s lie, was the wrong seed word, against Jehovah’s Word: the result was death. See? [27-4] Now, look, Eve what? What did she do? She received the wrong seed. See? The wrong word became her reality. Why do you think people are doing what they do today—such beasts? They’re natural brute beasts. Look at these kids committing murder, everything else. Twelve-year-old black boy gets a girl pregnant. Now, he’s about seventeen years old, got another girl pregnant, and he kills. And they say, “Well, you know, [Bro. Vayle chuckles.] bad circumstance, [Bro. Vayle chuckles.] you know, you know how it is.” Your parking… Maybe you get a couple parking tickets; they’ll throw you in jail for twenty years, maybe. The judges are so corrupt and so filthy, they’ll lob forces and everything else. The government… When the government... Hey, if everything about Bush and his son were true that I’ve read about, they should both be strung up. I don’t know. Let me tell you something. Let’s get this flat: Who was the highest authority outside of the one made in God’s image? Eve, co-equal. And who fell the loudest and hardest? Eve. Who got to her? The devil. So, let’s get this flat. The greatest people in this nation are the ones the devil will get to and use the most, and they’re the rottenest, and they’ll see that all this down here is just as filthy as, or worse than, they are. And they’ll sit up there pretending they’re so wonderful. That’s just government today. Everything types. Okay. 31. [27-4] She received the wrong seed. …believing Satan’s lie. How many say…that’s right? Why, sure it’s right, sure. She received Satan’s lie. What did she bring forth by doing it? Satan said, “You know this is glorious. This is a wonderful thing. …you were made for this? (Did you know that?) actually you were made for this purpose.” [27-5] “Oh, was I?” [27-6] “…it is pleasant to the eye. It’s good. You should try it.” [27-7] “But the Lord God said, (“No, no, you shouldn’t do it.”) [27-8] “But you know, oh well.” [27-9] “Oh, surely you won’t die.” …slick-tongued devil, he ain’t got hoofs and a forked tail, no, they try to make you believe that. He’s a slicker behind the pulpit. (Preach it, Bro. Branham.) That’s right. Or some little “Ricky” with his hair combed down like a duck, sitting on his back out there to harm some mother’s daughter. That’s the guy—come around with... Oh, I’ll let that go. 32. He says: [28-1] Now, the womb... Eve, received the wrong seed…(See, brings forth the wrong thing then.) Now, listen real close now. We’re going to drive this right down, if the Lord willing. She received the wrong word. What did it do? It was Satan’s lie,said she’d be wise; why, she could belong to the big church; she’d be well thought of in the city; why, she’d be like the rest of the people. Sure, that’s exactly what Jehovah’s bride believed. That’s exactly. That’s true; Jehovah’s bride was completely convinced by the women and the outsiders that came in, the women married the kings, Solomon had some bummed up wives that he never should have married. Solomon had a lot of them—pagans. And Ahab had a bunch. And first thing, they hobnobbed and took in all these strange religions. Oh, bigger church, bigger everything. That was Jehovah’s bride. 33. [28-1] That’s exactly. That’s exactly what Satan would’ve tried to do when the Word came to Mary, but she shrank away. [28-2] She said, “How can this be?” [28-3] And God said, “The Holy Ghost come upon you. (The Message, the Holy Ghost, come upon you.) It’s the Word of God.” [28-4] She said, “Be it according to Thy Word unto me.” (Let me get the Word; let me have the Word.) That brought Life. There you are. [28-5] Well, did you know Satan said, “They’ll all laugh at you.” [28-6] The little rosy cheeked girl didn’t pay any attention to that. Right up to Judaea she went and, “You know, I’m going to have a baby,” before she felt anything, because the Word had already been setting there. That was all. She didn’t have to go through the prayer line the second time. In other words, she didn’t have to have a double vindication or some second visitation; she believed the Word (That’s it!) and when you believe the Word, that’s it. You see what we’re talking about? That’s why it’s “live, die, sink, or swim,” and mean it. [Bro. Vayle uses grumbling sounds.] “I don’t know by watching this, I’m trained now…yeah, yup, yup.” Do you realize they’re saying this is not the real thing? Well, come on. “I don’t think it works that way.” Oh, for God’s sake, read your Bibles. God said, “Don’t do it.” “Well, it really won’t matter. Nah, it won’t matter.” How many Marys have we got this morning? I speak to the men, not just the women—everybody. How many Marys womb have we got…or a bunch of old Eve—bunch of old prostitutes? You make your choice. You make your choice. I’m not making it for you. I’m preaching hard, trying to give you a mind set. I can preach for ten million years, you won’t get a mind set unless you got something there to receive It down here. Phttt. You don’t have to a have a voice say…like spoke inside me, “When was he ever wrong?” Or, “That’s the one you listen to.” You don’t have to have that. That was for me because I’m a terrible unbeliever. I’m more nervous and shaky than you are. You might not believe that. [Bro. Vayle asks about the time remaining and says “We’d better call it a day right here. Yeah.”] 34. [29-1] There’s your virgin; there she is. Not only by baptism, but anything else—the rest of the Word, see. (In other words, Mary was always first with the Word. She couldn’t be persuaded to stand aside.) And Bro. Branham says: [29-2] …the only way we can ever be born again is first, in the womb of the mind receive the Word, and then, in the Spirit comes on top of that and brings it, (That brings it to life, you see.) There you are. That’s what does it. That’s the real Gospel teaching, brother. I believe if Saint Paul was standing today, he’d teach the same thing, (Well, certainly, because that’s Rom 1:15-17 and 1 Cor 1:17-31.) [29-3] Now, what were the results with her? Physical and spiritual… (That’s physical and spiritual death. That’s what took place because of Eve.) Now, what are the results of those who accept the other word…? Now, remember; Eve is the mother of all living, but notice one thing, that Mary was the mother of the Life-giver, in that particular sense, because he died and then gave us our lives, see. Okay. 35. [29-3] Now, what were the results with her—physical and spiritual death. What are the results of those who accept…other words? It goes into this frolic today, and what have they got? Both physical…spiritual death. Both body and spirit shall be annihilated, be no more. (That’s Malachi, and he said that’s for this hour.) [29-4] Note, Mary’s womb—Mary’s womb, the physical mind, see…the virgin womb. Why? She believed God’s Word. (See, that’s a virgin womb.) No matter how much anybody criticized, how many things somebody…said, she believed the Word of God regardless. [29-5] Oh, I wish I could just get that over to you. Are you getting it? See, first, …her mind. Before the act had ever taken place in her literal womb, the act had to take place…first to let the Spirit come in, to do the rest of the work. Oh, before the actual spiritual birth can take place, the Word has to find Itself through your mind; believe It. “He that believeth my Words, and believeth on Him that sent me, hath everlasting Life, and not go into the judgment, (or through the tribulation period), (He’s telling you now, this is that hour,) but you can pass…from death to Life right now.” See? (The Word has to come.) 36. Now, let’s look at something here and get the picture straight. When Jesus was begotten the first time, “This day have I begotten—have started my generations in—thee,” the next time it is said, he’s begotten from the dead as a first fruit. There’s a begetting. And there’s a begetting today going on which was never going on before, and that’s to match the first fruit process in people who don’t die. You see? We cannot be born out of the earth like those that are dead, but we’re still a first fruit. Now, the Bible says, “They without us cannot be made perfect; and that which is perfect is come, the perfect revealed Word of God.” So therefore now, as this Word is restored, and the Bride is a Word Bride, then Jesus Christ himself can come and meet us in the air. Right now he is on the Father’s throne. Now, what is that Word doing? That Word is getting us ready. And so therefore now, there will be…actually then, a begetting again by God. 37. He said, “Nicodemus, a man must be born again.” “Can he enter a second time in his mother’s womb?” “No, he doesn’t need to. He can be born of the water and the spirit.” That’s where we are. When he goes down in the grave and comes up, he’s begotten again from the earth. A lot of people get that all mixed up when they say, “You’re not really born again till the Resurrection.” That’s hogwash. You’ll never be in that First Resurrection unless you are born again. One deals with the soul, next deals with the flesh. That’s why I said this morning: the day of the Holy Ghost baptism is literally over. He’s here to do the last final ones. Now is the day of the headship of God Himself, the great Baptizer. He brought His Word to do it. See? 38. [30-1] Oh, my! ...notice: virgin womb, …virgin mind they believe the Word of God… (Sure, notice, he said here,) “Brother Branham, it couldn’t be that way; it’s impossible. (Oh, first of all, let me read back here.) Oh, my! Now notice: virgin womb, her mind, virgin mind to believe God’s Word. All right, you say, “Now look here. Oh,” say, “Brother Branham, it couldn’t be that way; for this hour, see, it’s impossible. John Wesley would’ve seen it and so-and-so would’ve seen it.” But, you see, that’s not true. They could not have seen it. Now, they could know something was there, and they could know there’s a reality to take place. They could know that. But they couldn’t know this, because how can you know something until the hour of the revelation of the unveiling? In other words, how could you know there are certain things in your blood stream that are invisible to the naked eye, unless the microscope is invented? It’s there, but you can’t see it. When the microscope is invented you can see it, and that’s what you’re looking at here. Brother Branham said, “Luther looked for the Pillar of Fire without knowing he was looking for It. Wesley looked for It. The Pentecostals thought they had It.” Oh no, no, that’s the Baptizer, God Himself. 39. Now we’re right back to where I was going to start today, and we can’t do it. See. [30-2] Sure, the devil could’ve said the same thing to Mary: “Who are you? Why, you’re the poorest of the city. You’re nothing but a young, sixteen year old girl, or maybe, eighteen…packing water out there; your dad dead…your mother a…blind woman. And now how in the world will you ever... (He said...) Ann was her mother, we’re told—how in the world are you ever going to have this child…?” (What are you trying to tell us anyways?) [30-3] “Listen, my mother is an old woman, she’s…blind, …she’s a godly woman. Through her lips she planted a seed in my heart. I’ve read it out of God’s Word and that Word said in Isaiah 9:6: ‘A virgin shall conceive.’” (Now she recognized she was a virgin, no man had touched her. And so now she’s in position to conceive. So here’s what we’re saying, she recognizes Scripture. See?) [30-4] Hallelujah. Can you see, the Word takes the flesh. Now, watch! He says, “The Word takes the flesh.” Now, listen again. “The Word takes the flesh.” Now, it was right in this girl’s womb that the Word is going to become flesh, and even before then, though, the Holy Spirit took her flesh as the tabernacle. And unless the Church believes the Word, there’s no true baptism; there’s no true way that there’s ever going to be a second coming of Jesus Christ, a Resurrection, and the dead get out of here. It simply cannot be done. We’ve got to go back to original. And in the original we saw one word off ruined the whole thing. So, it’s got to get right back to where Jehovah can have a Bride that isn’t messed up. Now, the messing up has to do with getting off the Word. There’s where the seduction lies—the subtility. 40. Now, here It says: [30-4] …Can you see, the word takes flesh. “In the beginning was the Word the Word was with God and the Word was God and the Word became flesh and dwelt among us.” [Jn 1:1] Now Bro. Branham said, “In this hour flesh is becoming Word and Word is becoming flesh.” We already read it. And we’re looking at it right here. And how does it take place? The same as it took place in Mary’s womb. She had to take the Scripture and believe It as It was revealed to her by divine revelation. The angel came in and said, “You are the one.” And she knew it was in the Bible. But she didn’t say, “Well, you know that’s a big joke, that is. What are you trying to sell me anyway?” You see? The point is: if you are a seed child of God you are going to believe, and if you’re not, you’re not going to believe. There is in your soul that ability to believe that Word of God down in your heart. 41. Now, you see, the Word takes flesh. It took on flesh. [30-4] There you are. God’s going to have a Church. It’s going to be born of the Word of God because it is the living Word of God. Do you see it? What do you mean ‘living Word of God’? His ministry vindicated proves this is that restoration. We’re not talking about restored morals now. We’re not talking about restored grounds. We’re talking about restored Word that gets into the mind as mechanics, where the soul says, “Yes,” or the soul says, “No.” And if the soul says, “Maybe,” that’s the same as saying “no.” Get that flat! Brother Branham did not say three choices. He said, “Two.” Right? You’ve got really one choice: yes or no. Okay. Just like this morning: you come to church or not, if you’re well and able to do so. You made your choice: you came. So, all right. 42. [30-4] It’s going to be born of the Word of God, because it is the living Word of God. In other words, this Church, a true Bride, is going to be born as a virgin Bride at this hour because that Word is one hundred percent vindicated to be the true, revealed Word of Almighty God; thereby she is the truly revealed bride of the Lord Jesus Christ. Now, watch! They said to Mary, “Hey, you got to be sick. We know all about this Holy Ghost pregnant stuff. We know about the gods how they come up in the temples and get the vestal virgins all pregnant and blame it onto the gods. Ah, come on, you’ve been hunky-hunky with some Roman solider out there. You’re just a slut.” You know, don’t think they didn’t say it, because they did. They didn’t chime around and say…why, like you might as well believe they said to the blind man was born blind, “Oh hey, this One has to be Messiah that healed you; oh, brother, He’s got to be the real One. And oh, isn’t it wonderful? You better come and join us, because we’re all one, happy family now because we really believe in God.” They said, “Get out, bum. You got to be of the devil. Don’t you try to tell me anything.” I do think they listened to Mary and said, “Well, Mary, isn’t that sweet; you really got the Holy Ghost. You’re really going to have God’s child. Ho, ho, my.” “Why,” they said, “you rotten, little slut, you.” Joseph got stirred up, and God said, “Just hold it, boy. It’s okay. It’s okay.” 43. What am I trying to tell you this morning? I’m trying to tell you, you ain’t okay with people around about you that hold to the Word. Listen, I’m going to tell you, holding to Bro. Branham is easy. He’s dead. Right! And what he wrote here anybody can take and make it say anything they want. I can do it and you can do it. Let’s not be naïve and a bunch of jackasses. We’re not that dumb we can do it. Let me tell you one thing: in my heart… Let me tell you straight to your heart: you hold to what I am preaching what I believe I see Bro. Branham is saying, and take it back here, they ain’t going to like you at all. They ain’t going to like you at all. Just mention my name, see what happens. 42. Did you get the Only Believe magazine this week? I got a copy. In there Billy Paul talks about seeing the angel: six foot tall fellow, dark hair down to here, very handsome, big man, faded in a halo of light and in…what is his…Donny…Branham. He was there, and hours later the rainbow hung in the room—a rainbow hung there. And Billy Paul said in this little article, he said, “Every time daddy said He was here, he knows it’s that angel.” That angel was not the Pillar of Fire. I disagree with Billy Paul. Now you say, “Lee Vayle, you do that, you’re going to be mud.” I already am mud—already am mud. Show me where Bro. Branham said that. Get Bro. Branham’s vision. There were two flames there, too. Figure that one out. I can’t…don’t intend to. That’s the Pillar of Fire, [Bro. Vayle points to the picture of the Pillar of Fire over Bro. Branham’ head] brother/sister, Elohim, not some angel from the presence of God. That’s Jehovah Himself. That’s the same One upon Mount Sinai. You think an angel got into Bro. Branham when Bro. Branham said, “The Pillar of Fire is standing up inside of me?” 43. Well, I’m not popular. With a nose like mine I couldn’t be. I’m not worried. If I can die knowing I preached God’s Word, (I’ve been trying to do it for years and years now.) I said I preached it right and I can stand. I don’t care what my spirit—anybody’s spirit—says about me, my own spirit says about me, I’m not too interested if I’m mean or ugly or nice or sweet or kind or anything else. That’s not the point anymore. The point is this: if that Word is not received—that correct, revealed Word is not received mechanically (this mind get down in the heart), forget it. And I don’t care if God brought me that Word through a monkey, a donkey, a brass knob, or a fine, wonderful man like Bro. Branham; doesn’t bother me one little bit…or an angel…I don’t care. However God wants to do it and bring that Word, that’s what I want, and that’s all I think we all ought to want. Well, we’ve taken all your time. Thank you for your time. Let’s rise and be dismissed. We’ll come back to this on Wednesday. Heavenly Father, we want to thank You again for Your kindness to us which has been manifested to us in Christ Jesus our Lord. We know that by history. We know that by Scripture which we have been taught to believe and do believe, and have every reason to believe by virtue of the fact that we have had a relationship with You, Lord, by the Holy Spirit which we call the re-birth. But now at this last day Lord, we’ve seen reality wherein there is a vindication that You, Lord, who gave the Book, You, Lord, who literally wrote the Book, You’re Your Own Prophet. You are that One that appeared on the scene. We have Your picture, but above that which, though that is fine, we know, Lord, we have a reality which is even greater, and that is, Lord, your Word has come to Life. It’s been manifested that this is the truth, and Father God in heaven, we’re willing to believe the prophet that You sent to tell us that if we receive that in our minds and put every other word out of there, and say this is It, believing, Lord, this is that Word, this hour, this truth, this restoration goes down in our souls, Lord, and this becomes what’s going to bring forth that life. And we know Lord, that life is already in us, and there’s a life in our flesh. And by Your grace we believe there is that wonderful life that was in You, that’s in us now, and anointed to the end, to bring forth a body which is what we are looking for, and then come together, Lord, in the Resurrection and Rapture for the Great Wedding Supper. Heal the sick amongst us, Lord. We pray that you touch every one in Jesus’ Name, that God may be glorified. We ask these mercies for Your sake and Your honor. In Jesus’ Name we pray. Amen. [Bro. Vayle asks for those who want to be prayed for to come forward.]
