Now Is Come Power

You can be seated. Well, it's good to be back, in service, we had hoped to get in the service on Sunday. We didn't get back. We had arranged it to where we could be back Sunday night, but I realized the Lord wasn't in me getting here Sunday night, so we finally settled down to the thought of coming on in a little later than we ordinarily would. I see that Mitch is back. Had a wonderful time where we went. The Lord blessed us. We had a good attendance and the revelational thing that took place was wonderful. And the Lord brought us back safe. As far as I know all of them that went is probably back by now and they're safe as far as all of them being back from the trip, which is great. I think it's wonderful. And it always makes me feel a lot better when I know that everybody that went on the trip has gotten back safe. It's kind of like parents with children, you don't go to sleep, you don't get any rest until all of the children are in at night. I use to hear my Mom speak about that. I didn't know too much about it because I was one of the problem children and when it come to not being in like I ought to be, but as I grew older I learned about what Mom was talking about. You have children and you're never contented and at rest until you know all of them is all right. It doesn't make a lot of difference even when they marry, it's the same thing. So when you are a spiritual parent, then you feel the same way, you're not contented until everybody is home safe, until you know that all of the spiritual children have gotten home safe. Brother Branham use to say something that I didn't, I really didn't know to much about the time he said it, but he use to say that it bothered him when his followers would travel all over the country to be in his meeting. Said, he kind of made him kind of want them to stay in one place and where he could come over where they were, maybe as one individual instead of all of them going where he was cause he was always worried about them. And I'm just thankful that the different ones are here. One thing that I know and that is that men and women in the early ages hazarded their lives for the name of Jesus Christ. Some of them lost their life in the dark ages for the sake of Jesus, and today, these are some dark days, some real dark days; and a lot darker than the dark ages. Call them the dark ages because they never could keep a record, or never could get a record of the things, that is thorough record, and they're still finding out different things that happened during that period of time, but it's good to be back. In ministering over there it really tied my throat up, I had just kind of got it untied as we say from camp meeting. I never had such a poor Pa system in a long time. It wasn't the Pa system because the one that they had was one that we bought here at Little Bethlehem quite a number of years ago and paid for, we bought it brand new. It was a real expensive operation or outfit as we say. But the way that they managed it, whoever it, it just didn't do right at all. It really made it hard, but the anointing was still good and the Lord still blessed us. It's good to be here tonight. Good to have Buddy here with us tonight, Brother Buddy Williams, ministered for us during the Camp meeting. And some of you knew Buddy even before then, but we are certainly glad to have him with us. Getting a lot of good mail from abroad. As a matter of fact we got some mail out of India, Africa, Nairobi Kenya, different places South America, Central America, Haiti. All kind of mail comes in from around the world and my wife reads it a lot of times and relates something to me. One letter from over in India, they have set up another Eternal Abundant Life work, and they have sent their blessings and praise for the work and for the wonderful things that's being done. They said, Since God has raised this work up as an Eternal Abundant Life work that they're having a wonderful time and they're having some conventions, and the Lords providing the Finance which takes quite a lot of finance from the way they described it and they're having a good time in the Lord. And then we got another letter from out of Kenya where they said that they had raised up an Abundant Life work, an Eternal Abundant Life work, and registered it with the government of Kenya and said, God was greatly blessing them, and they were looking forward to us coming into that area either for a crusade or into the church. And such letters we get from different places, a number of places that we've gotten letters from which gives us works in Haiti, Kenya Africa, and India and just different places all around the country there are different people that's working with us, and some of them that has become our comrades in the sense that they say that it is a branch of the Eternal Abundant Life outreach around the world and that they are a part of it and they want our supervision and they want us to lead and guide them in what they're doing. And they say that since they have taken that outlook and that name that something has happened to them and that they are especially being blessed, and some has reported said, We're having real revivals and people are getting saved and being baptized in the name of the Lord, and said, We're having real apostolic healings as in the early days of the ministries of the prophets and of the apostles, and said, It's Bible days again as to what's happening to the people. So it's wonderful. It's thrilling and it's exciting. We also received a call from the King Jesus station over in Alaska and the lady that's in charge, and of the people that owns the station and they said that our program on the Tv station would be starting this Sunday I believe, and their radio station I think the radio program is going to be just a little different. It's going to be at a little different time. That way it gives people a chance to hear both of them. But it's still exciting doing something for the Lord, whether you get tired or whether you keep on, you know keeping on the home front whatever, you get a little weary, but the Lord still blesses. Brother Dwight, Brother Atley, Brother Kim, there's three major figures as to our home - front operation, and they are moving steadily along with the things on the home - front. Brother Gerald and Brother Doyle are down at the boat right at the present time and they are keeping things going down there for just a little bit until we can get back and get things done on the boat. They, the ones on the home - front have had to go down in the basement part of the house that we built, the new house and they've had to strengthen the second floor which is carrying the load of the house. We had to put in steel beams, a number of steel beams, at least four and we already had in two huge steel beams, and we had to do a lot of work in making beams and doubling up the strength that we might have plenty of strength for the building. Brother Larry and some of them was cleaning up today, Brother Taylor, they have it in real good shape to the extent that nothing happens within the next two or three days, we should be using the little cafe. We was putting in the, making way for the little fan that goes in the vent - O - hood and that was about all we lacked outside of the electrical. Brother Atley I think is planning to go to Ohio, leaving maybe Friday, go up there to visit with some of his people and with the Alamsh people and also while he's there, he's considering searching out a place to set the Gospel tent in case we want to go into Ohio for a meeting. We have been into that area. It's been a long time, but he's getting the electrical into the little cafe, which means that everything down there is just about ready to use. Even the opening of the store, they want to reopen the store, it's about ready to reopen. So everything is usable, including the boat, the plane. All of it's usable, just a little detail, a little effort. Everything on the home - front is usable. Radio outreach is still in full operation. The printing is still in full operation. Of course the printing is not as active as I would like for it to be, and we're planning to really push that real soon now. So everything is going along beautifully. God is meeting all the needs, taking care of everything, through it takes tens of thousands of dollars, He's still meeting it beautifully. The devil's still on the run, and he keeps looking for a hiding place. Like the song says. There's no hiding place down here. God's going to burn his fields with fire. The Bible said, Resist the devil and he'll run from you. How many of you know that? How many of you are resisting him, let me see your hand? How many of you have got him on the run? I won't ask to see your hand, I just wondered how many he's got on the run. You either have to run him, or he'll run you, you know, it just depends. If you let him run you, he'll run you. It's like I heard of my uncle when he was a boy, out in the country, I heard about a story you know, whereas they got what they call a black runner. I believe it was him or someone that the black runner got after, and the black runner run him he'd turn around and then he'd run black runner, so they were running each other. When he'd get scared the black runner would run him, then when he'd get brave the black runner would get scared. So, whenever you get brave, the devil, he'll get scared. And as long as you're getting scared, he'll get brave. Okay, Let's stand together and sing this song 275. I'm really too hoarse to sing but I'm going to try to sing anyway, and you can sing with me. Glad to have our Brother from up in La Grange, Georgia. I see him, he's here with us, he and his wife and also, I believe he's got a visitor with him this time. Who's our visitor? Your uncle. What's his name? Mitchel, certainly glad to have him here with us. Appreciate Brother Mitchel being here with us. And I see back in the balcony, Brother Arthur, also. Brother Arthur was with us in men's meeting the other night and I thought Brother Arthur was pretty courageous because that men's meeting was kind of lengthy. And Brother Arthur has been kind of kick but he set right there through it. And he looked like he really enjoyed it. Sometimes I kind of overlook people that come in. I don't mean too, but we go all day long trying to do a little something for God, and at night we get a little bit tired,.specially when we travel, go in and out, try to fast and pray, and seek the Lord and do whatever we can, don't do very much of it, but what do sometimes you know it can be a little strenuous, and if we happen to overlook you well just forgive us, because we don't mean to do that. Glad to have my mother here. I always look forward to mom coming. I love to see her in the house of the Lord. You should be in the house of the Lord all the time. All right let's sing this song, 272. So wonderful to be a christian. How many of you know that it's wonderful to be a christian? So wonderful to be a christian. Want you to take you Bibles, turn with me over into the scriptures. We'll see what the would have us to say. You know every chance that we get we talk about the Revelation of Jesus Christ; the reason that we do is because we believe that the Revelation of Jesus Christ is the coming of the LOrd. We believe it to be the revealing of the Son of God. The Revelation of Jesus Christ or the revealing of the Son of God, and to natural minded people the revealing of the Son of God means that there is going to be a natural person that's going to appear in a natural heaven with some natural nails in his hands or natural nail - prints where the natural nails went. And then there are people that don't believe in that at all. So what we believe is the Revelation of Jesus Christ. I don't know what you believe but that's what we believe. We believe in the Revelation of Jesus Christ, and we not only think this to be true or in that we have conceived some idea that this is the way that it's going to be, we know that this is the way and the only way. The Bible said, Prove all things and to hold fast to that which is good. And I know that you can think you know something when you don't know something that you ought to know. And I know that you can think you're right when you're wrong, but there is a way to know that you're right, and I feel I found that way. I've been down all the other trails when you think you're right when you're wrong, and I've been down the other trails when you're lifted up and you're high minded and you don't know something as you ought to know. I've been down the trails where you think too highly of yourself and you find that you're in bad circumstances in days to come; and I've been down the trail where you think everybody else is wrong but you, and you think you're right; and when you judge everybody else when you care. I've been down all those trails. I know where they lead to. And I have been down trails where it was so close it would have deceived the very elect if it had been possible. Down trails to where I was positive beyond a shadow of a doubt that I was right, and I would listen to certain people and I was positive that I was right to find out that I wasn't positive at all, that I was as negative as could be when I really found out what the positive was. And I have been down the trail when I have prayed and fasted and slobber and cried like a dog. You know just like a, I've never seen a dog cry, but one whining you know, and just be somewhere hid away from my wife and children,and just make a sloppy mess, tears just puddling, just begging and pleading and crying, trying to know the truth. So I've been down the trails and I know where they lead to, and that's why I'm able to know when you come before me as a minister or you come before me as an individual to know where you've living and to know what kind of spirits got a hold of you. And a lot of times long before the spirit ever manifest itself, whereas you may be fasting and you may be praying and you may be seeking God, but i still see the spirit. As a matter of fact I was just relating something to a person today. My wife is real familiar with this of a woman that has fasted fifteen to twenty - one days, fasting, reputation of being one of the finest woman in the community, having raised her family for many years, walking faithfully with her husband, day by day, but I said, The woman's got a spirit of lust. It's there. I've already picked it up by discernment and someday it will manifest itself. Today her home is broken up and she's one of the greatest whorish women in that area or that I have ever seen. But see there is a way that seemed right unto a man; and the Bible teaches that the end of that is death. And then there is a way that is right. And Jesus said, I'm that way. So if you can find that way then you'll know who I am, Jesus said to Thomas is a way and this way is right. The eye of the vulture has never seen it. Though a man be a way - faring fool he's never even error into it. A lot of people just stumbling around drinking, cursing, frolicking, and they stumble across about everything. I mean they stumble across about everything. There's nothing hid from them. One way or another some foolish person is going to stumble across it. But the Bible said, Even the way - faring fool has never stumbled over this path. This is a path that the eyes of the vulture has never seen. So it's called the Revelation of Jesus Christ; the only way that we can have it is pray that God will grant us the Spirit of Revelation that our eyes might be enlightened, that we might comprehend the heights and the depths and the length and the width; and when you begin to comprehend the heights and the depths the width and the length then you know where you're going, you know where you've been you know who you are and you know what your future holds and you know what the past is all about, but you come there you really don't know. You're just guessing and you're just hoping and you're just trying to believe. So I thank God because of his kindness and because he has brought us to that understanding and made us to know; and one day when I found it I didn't have to search anymore and I didn't have to worry anymore and I didn't have to beg and plead anymore, I found it. And when I found it I knew it. The Bible teaches if you run across the truth, you'll know the truth. Once you see the truth you'll know the truth. There's something about it, you'll know it. You won't wonder about it, try to figure it out, you'll know the truth. For the Bible said, When you find it, it will set you free. It will set you free from your wondering. It will set you free from your ideology, your theology, it'll set you free from all of your fussing and disputing and warring and all of the failures and problems of life. It will set you free from it. It will set you free from your sickness. It will set you free from poverty, all of this the truth will do. So it's important that we find the truth. I remember when Brother Branham got lost one time he was way up in the mountains and he got lost and I think snow set in or whatever, I can't remember just exactly what. But any rate, he got lost and he was trying to get back to the camp. And the Lord finally showed him how, but said, While he was lost said, It was so terrifying until he didn't what to do to get back to the camp and may be his companion was there or somebody was there he had to get to, and said, He thought he really knew that place, he really knew it. And said, All of a sudden that thing happened and said, He heard a voice say, When you think you know something you don't know something as you ought to know. So then, you that are out there today that think you know something, you don't know something as you ought to know. And the thing that you don't know you ought to know is the truth. So when you find the truth you'll know it. You will know it. I had to learn, the first thing I had to learn was I didn't know nothing so I could learn something. And most people never learn anything because they already think they know something, but when you come to the place where you realize you don't know nothing, then you'll start learning and God will teach you something. That is the first place I had to come to; We read the Bible so much you know, and we study so much and we do so much and we fast so much, we pray so much, we get to be people that think we know and then when Jesus comes along then we're like the Pharisees and the scribes and we're like the people that was in his day that, really all we're doing is running into the truth and running into Him and running as one that beateth the air. We're not getting the job done. We're not really doing anything. But we just feel that we know. But like I said, there is a truth and you really can know it. And the only way that you can do that is to get acquainted with Him. That's why that I try my best to stay free of such spirits that just got a hold of my brother over to right in the balcony. That's why I try to stay free of them, so I don't criticize somebody that really knows. That's what should make you know that I know because I know you're doing, when you think wrong of me, and that's because you're not following me. You're looking for another leader and I know who the leader is and I know who the fellow is. And I know what you're doing, but you're just going to wreck up because you're not going to follow him because he's following me; so see you couldn't follow him without following me and you're not going to follow him because he's following me; and in that you're not following me, he's not going to let you follow him. Do you love the Lord? That's why Jesus said, When you receive the father, you receive the Son, when you receive the Son you receive the Father. And when you find one true minister, you'll be following all true ministers. And if you can't follow one true minister, then that means you're not following any true ministers. So see, it's so high you can't get over it. It's so low you can't get under it. It's so wide you can't get around it. You got to go in at the door. And Jesus said, I am the door. That makes it hard on you, don't it? Al right, Revelation, lets read just little bit here brethren. Brother Pike's not trying to un - christian you, I'm just trying to get you to realize that the carnal mind is enmity with God and that the only thing that is true is His Word. Let every man be a liar and let God's Word be true. And when we find God's Word, we've got a message; and if we haven't got God's Word we're just running as one that beateth the air. We don't have a message and we're not going to do any good at all for anybody. We're just going to be in a confusion all the time and upset at people all the time and we're going to have an old hard, ugly spirit all the time, and we're really going to accomplish nothing, not anything whatsoever. We start in this thing to show our faith to be a pretty body on T V, you know, and to have a cooing voice on radio so we can sing you know like Elvis Prelsey, and we get into this thing so that we can hurry before we get too old, so they can take our pictures when we're young to get them in the magazines so everybody cans see who we are before we get too old you know for them to admire us, and we want to be sure that we get a nice new car and we want to be sure that we have plenty of money in the bank and we want to mix this thing up with a lot of youth and a lot of you know whatever it takes to be a play boy and a play girl. And I see this on T V. I saw a few days ago I saw some woman on television it was one of the silliest something that I have ever saw in my life. Setting there painted up like a Jezebel and she was telling the people their problems and she was a glamour girl and she had so much powder and paint and Pan cake - makeup on her face until it was pitiful, but she was telling them how they should worship God and how this thing works, and she was their leader and she was going to lead them into it, and she really was leading them into it, but I see men doing the same thing, you know but folks, it sure would have been different if somebody like John the Baptist had stepped out on T V or Elijah with his you know, his way of dressing had have stepped out on T V and met some of these real envegelast of today. It would have been something. So then there are people that want to go to heaven. There's people that's looking of God. There's people that's looking for an experience with God. There's people that's looking for eternal life and then there's people that's looking for a church and a congregation and somebody to sooth and to get into business and all of them live together and have a little community and play around and do such and such and whatever and change preachers like they change socks. But then there are some that love God, that's interested not in money and not in business and not in fame and not in popularity and they are not interested in T V or whatever. They are interested in God. I mean they're interested in God, and they got into this thing to try to get eternal life because they know that whether young or old someday, whether they die young or old or live to be elderly people, someday they're going to dig a hole and throw dirt in their face and they're going to be laying there cold and still while their spirit goes back to God to answer for the deeds that's done, whether crooked or straight, and to answer to the extent that God is going to turn them into hell ro into a lake of fire. Like somebody ask me today it's like the fellow over here that's on my right that's always giving problems that needs to get born again. Somebody ask me today about another fellow that's over to my left, and said, Could you tell me something about that fellow? I said, well, what is it? He said, Well, he said, is that fellow born again? Of course to find out why he ask me that. And he said, I don't know,I just don't feel no connection when I get near him. Said, I just don't, I don't feel the connection and said, I like the fellow, said, I think he's a nice fellow, but said, I just don't, I'd like to know whether he's born again or not. So, we've got a lot of nice evangelists, nice people, nice fellows, nice women, nice men, but like the fellow said, Is the man really born again? Now the question could be answered like this and maybe this seems a little evasive but the thinking of those that like to think right, is the man born again? Well the answer is, if he has God's spirit, he is and if he doesn't, he's none of His. The Bible said, If you have God's spirit then you are His and if not, then you're not His. No man can call Christ Lord, But by the Spirit, by the holy Ghost. You can't call Christ Jesus your Lord except by the Holy Ghost, because unless you have His Spirit, He is not your lord. He is not your lord. Unless my wife has my spirit, I am not her lord. Sarah called Abraham Lord because they had become one, one flesh and one spirit; therefore she had his spirit and she was flesh of his flesh and bone of his bone therefore she could say, Abraham my lord. But now unless you have Christ's Spirit you couldn't possibly be Christ's flesh and bones because it takes Christ's Spirit to make Christ's flesh and bones. It takes your spirit to make your flesh and bones, and it takes Christ's spirit to make Christ's flesh and bones; therefore he cannot be your Lord except you have His spirit. So then no one can call Christ Lord except by the Holy Ghost. Now you might be a believer you might be a believer and you might be an outstanding believer, but that doesn't mean that he is your Lord. See, because if you believer there's one God, you do well. The devils believe but he's not their lord. Through he is God over them, but he is not their lord. BUt He is my Lord. And if you've got His Spirit then you've been born again and you're his child and He is your Lord. He is your Lord; and If you do not have His Spirit, though you may come to church, through you may give gifts, through you may tithe, though you may preach, though you may travel around the world and though yu may do many, many things, he is not your Lord. You are not born again. Being a believer in the sense of believing does not prove that you are born again. Just believing that is not prove that you are born again, for just being a believer does not mean that you are born again. Though you might be devout believer, even to the extent that you may attend church more that I attend church, but that don't make you a child of God. This is where the problems is coming in with a lot of denominational churches of today: The Baptist, the Methodist, the Presbyterian, the Pentecostals, the Catholics and on and on, Those people are believers. Did you know that? A lot of denominationals and a lot of non -denominationals they are believers. A lot of Charismatic, they are believers, but that does not mean that they are Christians. That does not mean that they are the body of the Lord Jesus. It doesn't mean that they are eve born again. Through there may be thousands or hundreds of thousands, that does not mean that they are born again, not at all; but if you have his Spirit, then you are born again. Otherwise it's like a still birth. There might be a form, but there's no life in it. I believe it was Brother Copeland, I'm not sure maybe I've got this wrong, but this is the way that it was related to me, I believe it was Copeland, not Brother Hagan, I think it was Brother Copeland that make the statement recently according to my report of what I heard, said, that he had to get away from the people and get something for himself, and he's a great figure, said, he had to get something for himself because he didn't have anything. Said, when I get around the people I get anointed. But said, That's because I'm around the people. Said, I don't really have anything myself. And said, I've learned that I've got to get holiness, and I believe they made the statement said, He said, to Pat Boone setting close by, said, Pat, We've got this thing straightened out and we've got to get right. And said, Pat commented as saying, well, I agree that we're this way and that way, you know, we're pulled on this side and we're pulled on that side and these people over here pull at us; whereas we told Pat Boone that he was with people that didn't belong with and shouldn't be with them. But anyway said, He acknowledged that was the thing that was happening and said, The man Copeland told him, said, the thing we've got to do, Pat is get over this thing called death. Said, That's what we've got to do. We've got to conquer death, said, We've got to get over this thing called death. Now I agree to that. I agree to do that. Now I don't know whether there's anything to it or not. Somebody said they had a vision and said in the vision he had gotten a hold of some of our literature, and said that he was asking us to be on his program and he was announcing to the people on the T V program that we were to minister. This was a vision. And then said in reality, not a vision, that they heard him on the T V preaching on a message called the three minds and that he told the people, said this is not my message. I got it from somebody else. Now whether there's anything to that or not I don't know, But I'm saying all of that because I had something I wanted to say, and the one thing I wanted to say was this, I made the statement that the foolish virgins would begin to rise up and look for the oil: whereas, I'm saying this, not that he is a foolish virgin, the man be godly, or he may not be godly, but the man that he came up under Kenneth Hagan, I'm saying because I read this article myself from the Kenneth Hagan Magazine, and I believe that it was Kenneth Hagan's wife to the best of my knowledge, at least it was in his magazine and I believe Kenneth Hagan was doing the talking. Kenneth is also a big figure. But Kenneth said that he found his wife, that is Kenneth's wife, said, I found her, I believe he said about three O' clock in the morning or something over in the morning and said, She was over in the living room or somewhere in the house down on her face, and said she had her face right down on the floor and said, She was crying and mourning and groaning and going on, and said, As he got closer he heard her speaking in an unknown tongue and he said, It tour him up. Said, He thought she had lost her mind. Said, He couldn't figure out what in the world happened to her and said instead of getting up as he got closer, said, She was just the more fervent in it and went on for about three sold hours, and said, She was either on her knees with her face on the floor or her stomach with her face on the floor, said, No matter what position she got in, she never took her face off the floor. And he said, At last she finally got up praising God and shouting and hollering and going on. And said, when she finally simmered down a little he thought you know well, praise God! She'scome out of that whatever it was and he thought she was going to be all right. But anyway, he said that he found her there and when she come out of it, she began to Praise God because God had spoke to her and told her that a certain woman at the hospital that the doctors had given up that this was going to be healed. The doctors had said that even if she lived she would be a vegetable; but she said according to his report that she determined in her heart that was a mother with some little children and the mother wasn't but about twenty - five or twenty - eight years old, I can't remember what it was; and that it wasn't right for the devil to take her life and the devil wasn't going to take her life so she got down on her face and stayed there for three solid hours and finally she prayed through until she got the victory over it and she stood up and began to shout and praise God for the woman's deliverance and I believe they said the next day, or few days she was sent home to her children and said, the very next day, I believe it was, after her praying said, she found out at the hospital the doctors was rejoicing and the nurses was going about dancing about so to speak with their enthusiasm expressing the word and the good news all over the hospital that this woman had took a turn for the better, that something had happened to her. Whether true or false or not I don't know, I read it, and I believe it. I believe it happened. But anyway, I just said that to say this, there are foolish virgins that's beginning to run for the oil, and there are people that have been blinded to this thing that are not foolish virgins. Their eyes are coming open, and they're beginning to look for the revelation of the Son of God and this wonderful faith and power in Christ Jesus. So then, this is wonderful thing. As a matter of fact I think Kenneth Hogan and the Copeland brother they just brought another great acreage of land with beautiful buildings on it and whatever for the futherance of the move of God according to their ministry; but that thrills me to know that God is no respect of person. That what God done for Kenneth, he'll do for Brother Copeland. What he's done for Brother Copeland, he'll do for his wife. Or what he's done for the wife he'll do for Kenneth. See, what he's done for you, he'll do for me. What he's done for me , he'll do for you. God is no respect of person. But it's just like this, gold is a different metal from silver. And you're never going to make gold out of silver, nor silver out of gold. You've got to be the right metal as we say, or you've got to have the right poteniallity if you expect to come out in the certain thing God wants you to come out in and the Bible said, That's pure gold. You love the Lord? I ask Dwight today, I walked down in the bottom of the store, and I said, Dwight, or in the bottom of the building, I said, Dwight, have you ever eat any gold? And Rick, he was standing on the ladder nearby, and Rick, He all but stopped his work as if to say, What's wrong with Brother Pike? And Dwight looked at me and Dwight said, Gold! I said, Yes, have you ever eat any gold? And I think the boy, he was about ready to start feeling sorry for me? But I said, No, NO,. Dwight, I'm serious. My wife gave me some stuff with gold in it and said, and I eat the gold. And sure enough Betty had got a hold of something. I don't know what it was. But anyway, it's got gold in it. It's got silver in it, it's got copper in it, it's got zinc in it, it's got iron in it, it's got tin in it, it's got cobalt in it, I don't know what all it's got in it, but I read about all of them things. Now you wouldn't think folks would go around eating iron, you know, if you come up and say, Have you ever eat any iron? And they would say, He's crazy. But you know, isn't it amazing it's really amazing, God wants us to come pure as gold. Our faith to come out as pure gold and strangely enough, I never eat gold in my life until I took some of that stuff and now I've got gold on the inside of me. That's really something. I know it is. I had a vision when I was a boy; and in this vision I guess I must have been thirteen years old, fourteen years old, and I had this vision and I thought that I had discovered gold. And I found the most beautiful streams that you ever seen in your life and they were just gold. And I just jumped in there and I started eating gold. I grabbed a handful every way I could and I was just eating gold and I thought that I eat and eat and eat and I got so sick I thought I was going to die, and I come out of that vision and I thought I never want to hear about gold no more. I didn't want to think about gold, but I just passed it off as a vision. I never really thought I'd ever eat gold, but in the last couple of days I've been eating gold. I've heard of gold being in your teeth to eat with, but never eating gold you know. But I thought this is a little off key as to the them of our thinking here. We kind of got off on a branch here but, anyway I thought today I thought this is really astounding. See, my potentiality, my potentiality is so great; I'm made out of everything. God made me out of the dust of the earth and from the dust of earth comes the vegetation and everything that lives off of the vegetation; so then, I've got everything in me. I didn't know I had everything to the extent you know that I had some gold and some silver in me, too. I always heard that a man wasn't worth much, you know, just a little potash, but I done found out there's more to that. You know, you got a little bit of gold in you, a little bit of silver in you, a little bit of cobalt in you. I don't know how much it's all worth, but it must be quite a bit of minerals in you, or elements in you that's worth something. But I've thought about that see, cobalt is stuff that you put in a bomb. Have you ever heard of the cobalt bomb? Look is like you would just blow to pieces. You know, but you don't. You don't. There's something about it. Somebody said, Well, you could never do that anyway, Brother Pike. Yes, I know of cases. I ve heard of numbers of cases, I've read of cases where people were walking down the sidewalk and all of a sudden they become a flame of fire. I've read of them where they would be in their bed at home and all of a sudden their arm would catch on fire. It would be nothing. It just come right out of their arm, right out of their body. And their body began to burn. So you're combustible, you know. I thought that's really something. We've got to have the potentiality we are to be. We can't be something unless we have the potentiality; and that's why I saw that you can believe all that you want to but if the potentially of whatever you're trying to believe yourself to be, if the potentiality isn't there, you're never going to be that. How many of you know that? You're never going to do that. If you don't have the potentially of what you're trying to believe yourself to be, you'll never be that. But if you have the potentially of that; so then you can believe that and you can become that because you have the potentially of that; so then if you're trying to believe yourself to be a son of God you'll never be a son of God with all of your believing unless you have the potentiality of Christ in your heart or that which it takes to make you a son of God. All right, lets read this: ( Chapter 1:1-3. Brother Pike reads Revelation Chapter 1:1-3. ) I want you to notice that. Now I've emphasized that a lot of times in preaching or teaching but I want you to especially take to that. It says, The Revelation of Jesus Christ, Blessed is he that readeth for the time is at hand. And it says here, that according to what John has recorded that when the Revelation came the time was at hand. I've emphasized this two or three times in some sermons here that when this thing came to pass that the Revelation of the Son of God was given to John, God said, John, here is the revelation. Here is the revelation of Jesus Christ. And He said, John, in that you have the revelation of Jesus Christ, He said, I want you to know that the time is at hand. Somebody would say Brother Pike, What do you mean by that? I say that when you receive the Revelation of Jesus Christ the time is at hand. When the world receives the revelation of Jesus Christ, that is the church world, then the time is at hand. The revelation of Jesus Christ, can the time actually be at hand? Because you receive the revelation. The Bible said, Receiving the Revelation of Jesus Christ, the time is at hand. And so then receiving the revelation of Jesus Christ the time was at hand and God said, John, you've received the Revelation of Jesus Christ or the Revelation of Jesus Christ is coming to you to be received and said, Because of this the time is at hand. And sure enough within a few minutes the time was at hand, that is the time of the coming of the Lord because when John received the revelation and he was told that the time was at hand, next thing he knew he heard a voice behind him and he turned around and there he was. He turned and he looked and there was the Son of God standing in the midst of the candlesticks. When you find the revelation of Jesus Christ the time is at hand and you'll hear a voice and that voice will call you and all of a sudden you'll see the Son of God. You know the Bible teaches that no man can see God and live. No man can see God and live. So then you have to be dead to see God. You have to be dead to the flesh, dead to the things of the world, dead to see God. If you're going to see God you're going to have to be pure in heart; for the Bible said, the pure in heart shall see God. Now the Bible said no man has seen God at any time. And no man can see God. You understand what I'm saying? No man has seen God, no not at any time. And the Bible said that Jesus Christ, he alone dwells within the great light. For God is the Great Light unto which no man can approach, whom no man has seen or can see, Christ Jesus dwelling in that light because he alone is heir to that glory. So then no man has ever seen God. Abraham did not see God. Moses did not see God. No man has ever seen God. All down through the history of mankind, even from the foundation of the world, there's never been a man that's seen God. Even from the time of Abraham on, even until the end of the world, no one ever see God, no man that is will ever see God; because God is a light. You cannot see God. On these natural eye nerves. There's no way to see God. He is such a great light that the Bible teaches that at His appearing not only does your eyes cease to be but your body ceases to be. Not only does individuals cease to be but the mountains cease to be. The seas cease to be. All of the vegetation of life cease to be. All of the earth flees away from God. Everything ceases to be because He is the Great Light. It's no little wonder that the Bible said, No man has ever seen God. God is like the great sunlight, you can't get near the sunlight. You would disintegrate. It's no wonder that the Bible said no one has ever seen God because not even the earth can get near God. Not even the things of the world can get near God. They cease to be. So then no man ever seen God. But I've seen God. You love the Lord? Isn't that wonderful to think that nobody's ever seen him and I've seen him? So then, it's so wonderful to be able to see God. No ones ever seen him so far as a man. No ones ever going to see him so far as a man. You know, no one can see him now so far as a man, but I see God. Jesus said, I do always the things that I see my Father do. Isn't that wonderful? To think that I can see God and that I can walk with God and that I can do the things always that I see my Heavenly Father do, isn't that wonderful? So it's so wonderful to be a christian and to be able to see God. Now, no man can see God. That's why the Bible says you can not see God and live. In the Old Testament when a man would see an angel it would just scare him out of his wits almost because they just knew that they were going to die. Because they did not understand what God was saying when he taught that no one could see him and live. See, but what I'm saying that Christ saw God. Christ Jesus saw God. How is it that Christ could see God when no other man had seen him, and no man in the future could see God? How was it that Christ could see God? Because he was not born of the blood cell of human beings. There's never been but one blood cell that ever created that was godly, that was holy, that was righteous that was where it could see God. And that was blood cell that Jesus came from Which was created within the virgin womb. All of the human beings is of one blood. The Bible says that God has made all people of one blood. All human beings are of one blood. So no man can see God. You say, But Brother Pike, you say that you can see God, and you are a man. No, I died a long time ago and they buried me and today it's not me living, it's that one blood cell. See, I'm bone of His bone and I'm flesh of His flesh. That's why I see God. See, he alone dwells in that light. You say, but you're a man just like I'm a man, Brother Pike. No, the Bible said, We've passed from death unto life and we're not in the flesh. If we're in the flesh we can't please God. We're not in the flesh so I couldn't be a man. Men are in the flesh. I couldn't be a man. So then the Bible said, He that is born of spirit is Spirit. And I've been born of the spirit and I've been born of His flesh, and I've been born of his bone and today it's not me living, Paul said, but it's Christ. And Paul was caught up to third heaven. So then, Do I see God. How do I see God as a man? I see God as God. Because we're no longer men when we're born of God, but we are Gods. No man has seen God. No man can see God, but see we're not men. the Bible teaches that ye are Gods. Therefore we are born of his bone and we're flesh of His flesh and we alone as the members of that great wonderful body, we dwell within the light in the great wonderful light. We dwell within the light of the Son of God. We dwell within that light. Moses could not do that. Abraham couldn't do that. Elijah couldn't do that. John the Baptist though he was ever so great, he couldn't do that, but I can do that. See, he that is within the body of Jesus, He that is within the membership of Jesus, through John be the greatest of all of them ass we would term it, yet we excel the greatness of John and a greater than Solomon is here and a greater than John and a greater than Elijah is here and a greater than Abraham is here. Are you then greater that our Father Abraham, are you? What did He say? They said, Well we have Abraham. He's the father of the faithful, the greatest of them all. Are ye then greater than our father Abraham as they wanted to accuse Him? Verily I say unto you, He said, Abraham, he saw my day. He rejoiced to see it and I say unto you that before Abraham was, I am. Hallelujah! Are we then greater than Abraham? Verily, verily I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. So then, it is great thing to come into the Revelation of Jesus Christ. When you come into the Revelation of Jesus Christ. When you come into the Revelation of Jesus Christ, What are you doing when you come into the Revelation of Jesus Christ? You come into a great wonderful understanding. You come into a great light, a great dimensional depths that men have never fathomed. You come into a place that men cannot reach. Though they might be great and they might be mighty as professors or whatever they might be. But eye hath not seen and ear hath not heard and neither hath it entered into the heart of mankind at anytime the things that God has for them that love Him. Never, with all of your education, with all of your polished ethics, with all of your biblical studies, with all that you do, all that you say, all that you know, never at anytime has your eyes seen, nor your ears recorded the great wonderful mastery of the mind of the Revelation of the Son of God, But the Bible said, God hath made this revelation unto babes such as would learn and if we would pray for God to reveal this unto us by His Spirit that God would give us the Spirit of Revelation and reveal it unto us. So then, Eye has not seen, ear hath not heard, money can't obtain unto it, education can't obtain unto it, nothing can't obtain unto it. But when we get the Revelation of the Son of God, we receive a knowledge, We receive an insight, we receive an enlightenment and that great wonderful knowledge, that great wonderful enlightenment is that God reveals who we are. God reveals who we are. Somebody say, Glory to God! I am the Son of God. I know that! That's great. That's wonderful if you know that, you believe that, that's wonderful; but the Revelation of Jesus Christ, what is it? It's that innermost understanding, it's that innermost enlightenment, it's that innermost from glory to glory and from understanding to understanding from that wonderfulness.....( tape 2 side1 )... With all of your education, with all of your polished ethics, with all of your biblical studies, with all that you do, all that you say, all that you know, never at anytime has your eyes seen nor your ears recorded the great wonderful mastery of the mind of the revelation of the Son og God. The Bible said, God hath made this revelation unto babes such as would learn and if we would pray for God to reveal this unto us by His Spirit that God would give us the Spirit of revelation and reveal it unto us. So then eye has not seen, ear has not heard, money can't obtain unto it. Education can't obtain unto it. Nothing can obtain unto it, but when we get the Revelation of Son of God, we receive a knowledge, we receive an insight, we receive an enlightenment and that great knowledge, that great wonderful enlightenment is that God reveals who we are. God reveals who we are. Somebody would say, Glory to God! I'm a Son of God. I know that! That's great. That's wonderful. If you know that, you believe that, that's wonderful; but the Revelation of Jesus Christ, what is it? It's that innermost understand, it's that innermost enlightenment, it's that innermost from glory to glory and from understanding to understanding from that wonderfulness to wonderfulness, from that great excellency to that great excellency, from that wonderful, wonderful way of God, we see ourselves and it's revealed to us who we are. That's why Jesus could say, Verily, Verily I say unto, before Abraham was, I am, He said. He did not draw back from it, it did not bother him. They said, Never a man taught us like this man for his words are with authority. He speaks as one that has authority. It's different altogether. And so then there was a man. Jesus said, I am a man. I am a man. As far as you are concerned I'm a man just like you're a man. I eat. I drink. My bodily functions is just the same as yours. I got hair on my head. I got fingers on my hand and toes on my feet. I get tired. I hurt. I bleed. I suffer. I feel pain. I'm just as much as you are human; but something happened to Jesus. Something came forth in Jesus' life. And what was that came forth in Jesus' life? A great wonderful understanding that excelled the understanding of humanity, and got into Jesus' heart, and that thing began to grow in His life. Somebody would say, No, Brother Pike, he was God. He knew all things. Well why does the Bible say that he grew in knowledge? Why does the Bible say, He grew in knowledge? Because he was a man. Why did the Bible say, He grew in the grace of God? Because he was a man. So then you say as a little baby in the cradle as he kicked his feet, he was God Almighty, he knew about everything. No. No. he was a man. He was a baby. He had to grow. He had to learn. He had to come to understand, else he wasn't a man. Else he wasn't a human being. He had to come to understand. He grew in the grace of God. The Bible said, He grew in the stature of God. So then, did he know all things as a little baby? Was he actually God? He did know all things and he was God as a little baby in a crib. But where was all of that he knew and where was that God part, where was that? It was that innermost spirit. It was that life on the inside, that life that had come down as a baby. It had formed itself a body and that little body had to grow and that little body had to grow and that little body had to grow, and as much as that little body grew and it's little brain cells began to mature, it began to record God, God - knowledge, God. And as the little brain began to get, began to expand according to human instrumentality, then the Word became flesh, and dwelt among us and we beheld the glory as the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. And so this little Jesus began to grow in stature and his little brain began to develop and the more it developed the more God was there, and the more God was there, and the more God was there, what was it? It was the Revelation of Jesus Christ that God gave unto Him that he might show it unto us. And that he might share it unto us, and that it might do unto us the same thing that it did unto Him. Oh, somebody would say, Brother Pike, you can't say that. That could never happen to you and I. Paul said, It's not me living but its him. I am bone of His bone and flesh of His flesh and the life I now live, I live by the Son of God. Why did Paul say that? Because Paul said that he received the Revelation of Jesus Christ. He was the one that said, You needed the Revelation of Jesus Christ. So then, Paul received the Revelation of Jesus Christ. And what did it make Paul? It made him God. Oh, somebody said, Now you can't do that, Brother Pike. You can't go around making people God. I don't do that. He does that. He went around making people God. He made Moses God. Moses, thou art God. If he made him God, what can you say about it, what can I say about it? If he wanted to make me a puppy, you couldn't do nothing about it, you couldn't do anything about it; if he wanted to make me a lion, if he wanted to make you a giraffe, there would not be anything that you could do about it. The Bible said, The potter has power over the clay, to make one vessel to honor and another unto dishonor. If he wants to make you an Esau and you a Jacob, there is nothing that you can do about it. And the Bible said, What if God willingly, just willingly took those vessels that's fitted unto destruction, and just willingly took those things and subjected them to suffering throughout eternity, what could you do about it? There isn't anything that you could do about it. God gives more grace to the humble. What can I do? I can receive the Revelation of Jesus Christ by humbling my heart, by calling on the name of the Lord, God fore - saw from the foundation of the world what I would do. So then, this great wonderful God Spirit that was within the body of Jesus caused this body to grow. It caused this little body to develop, and from the time that this little body could just say, Da Da Da, just like your little ones say, Da DA DA. From the time that it could say, Da DA DA the little brain began to develop and the nourishing and the caressing of mother Mary cuddling the little one feeding the little one, and God expanded him. Jesus grew bigger and God expanded until finally when Jesus walked down the street that was Almighty God, even at the age of twelve he had come into such great wonderful enlightenment until he astounded the wise men. Somebody said, But you can't do that as little boy, Brother Pike, I do not Believe that. I know the little fellows that wasn't about eight, nine years old and they're genius. You can ask them almost any kind of questions, sometimes they have them on T V, you can ask them almost anything, they can answer it. They know a lot more about things that I know, and their little brain is not as big. So then, God gave to Jesus the Revelation of Himself. The revealing of Christ without Him. And the Bible said, Concerning those that knew what he was saying that he made in himself twain, both Lord and Christ, that the Christ was on the inside and the Lord was on the outside and the Christ kept developing and the Christ kept expanding until one day he knew that he was God. And he walked the earth and he said, My Father and I are one. They said, Kill him stone him. He said, Why? They said, You bring a man, you make yourself God. But didn't He call Moses God? He said, Is it not written in the Scriptures, I have called ye god? If then unto whom the word of God came, they are called god, how much more am I the Son of God. I came out from God. So then, as he walked he told the woman, she said who are you, that is as we would say? Who are you? I am the Messiah. Lest you believe that I am he, you'll die in your sins, He said. If you don't believe I am he you'll die in your sins. Besides that, if you'd have ask me of water, I would give you water you wouldn't have to come back to thais well. So then, Christ walking in a human temple, Christ walking in a human body, Christ the Revelation within a human body, within human bones, within human flesh, and that Christ revealing itself to those cells, to the elements of that body, revealing itself to the nerve system of that body, to the impulses and reflex of that body that it was God, it was God. Folks, it's no wonder you can't take this thing to yourself. It's no wonder you can't be a christian just because you want to believe. It's no wonder that you can't be a great mighty God walking the earth just because you have some religious experience and you join the church because it doesn't come like that. If you've got, if you've got Pike life you produce a Pike body, if you've got Armstrong life you produce an Armstrong body. If you've got Taylor life you produce Taylor body, but if you've got God - life, you produce a God - body. Whatever you've got on the inside of you that's what you are. As a man thinketh in his heart so he is. If you think Pike thoughts, or you think the Armstrong thoughts or you think the Taylor thoughts you think the Beachy thoughts, that's what you are, but beloved friend, when you think the God - thoughts that's what you are. I've said this a lot of times, you might think you are a doctor and you might think you are a ditch - digger so thinking and believing don't make you anything except insane a lot of times; but I'll tell you what if you can get the same education that the doctors got, the same education that the dentist has got, the same education and understanding that the engineer's got, if you've got understanding as an engineer then you're an engineer. If you've got the understanding of a doctor then you're a doctor. If you've got the understanding of a dentist then you're a dentist. As you think on the inside of your heart that's what you are. You may think you're George Washington and you may not be anything, but insane. But I'll tell you one thing, if you had the spirit of Washington on the inside of you, you'd be George Washington. It wouldn't make no difference if you looked like a giraffe. You can say, Praise the Lord! It's all right. Somebody said, Boy, you're crazy. Talking about eating gold and now here he goes talking about George Washington with a neck like a giraffe. It wouldn't make any difference. I'm sure within my thinking that is, I feel reasonably sure that Herod did not resemble a fox at all, but he was a fox. Jesus said, Go tell that fox. Somebody said, No, he's a man. As far as I'm concerned he's a fox. The Bible said, He's a fox. And I've said a lot of times, God knows what he made, so he made him a fox. That's what he is. The Word of God said, Let there be a fox and there was a fox, even through they called him Herod. So then, I feel this way; when John the Baptist came preaching somebody said, John the Baptist. Jesus said, Elias. As far as I'm concerned he's Elias. He came in the spirit of Elias, that's what he was. It wouldn't have made any difference if John the Baptist had looked like elephant and had a trunk he would have been Elias. The Bible said he was Elias. Whatever the Word of God says you are, brother, that's what you are. If the Word Of God says you're a hypocrite you're a hypocrite. If the Word of God says that you're a Son of God, you're a Son of God. If the word of God says you're lost. Whatever God's Word says that's what you are. So then, as a man thinketh in his heart so he is. The Bible said, If any man say unto this mountain, Be thou removed and if he don't doubt in his heart, but he thinks that way, if he thinks that mountain's going to be removed because he told that mountain to be removed, that mountains going to be removed. No doubt about it, he's a mountain mover. That's what he is. He's a mountain mover. He's got the spirit of a mountain mover. Amen! God will move the mountain. As we would say if he had to have Brother Hollis come out here and take his bull - doze and cut it down a peg at a time. I heard of a case like that. A man prayed for a mountain to be moved. Somebody laughed at him, but the little story stated that it wasn't long before the state or somebody had need of dirt and they never stopped until they moved the mountain, so irregardless the man got the mountain moved. So, I believe that whatever you think in your heart according to your thinking that's what you think you are. Paul said, I think that I'm God. I think that I'm God. It's not me living but God, he said. This is God - life, he said. My life was Paul - life and this is God - life. Your life is whatever your life is and this is my life. See, I believe that when you receive the Revelation Of Jesus Christ that's all it takes. So then, the Son of God, it was revealed to him who he was and what he was. It was revealed to Moses who he was and what he was. God said, I revealed to you Moses, that you are god. Somebody said, Brother Pike, You're crazy. God said, Moses, you are a god. I revealed it to you. If my Word says you're a god, you're a god. If my word says, Let there be a moon, there's a moon. If my word says, Let there be a god, there's a god! Moses, you are god! You're born for this purpose. Somebody said, Well, how do you get that. Well, he didn't eat for about eighty days and he did not drink any water. It sounded like to me it would take a god to do that. If you don't think it would take a god to do that, you try doing that sometimes. So then, he said you are god; as many believers to them gave he the power to become God, or to as many as believers, to them gave he the power to them the Son of God. They said, You a man you make yourself God. You say, I'm the Son Of God. You make yourself God. Somebody said, Well, I am not going to go that far myself, Brother Pike. Said, What do you mean? What do you mean? I am not going to go that far. Now as a son of God, I'll go along that far with you. But now this thing talking about being god, I am not going to do that. Well, tell me how you can be a son of a rabbit and not be a rabbit? Somebody explain it to me. How can you be a son of a dog and not be a dog? How can you be a son of God and not be a God? So then, Moses, thou art God. That makes me fell good. Hallelujah!!! You say, but Brother Pike, God hasn't ever come down here and told you that like he did Moses. Oh yes he did. You just didn't see him. When we had our conversation and our talk you just wasn't there, that's all. So then, God who is in my heart, God who is in my spirit, the Great and the Mighty God Jehovah, that created heaven and earth. He said, Thou art my son; this day have I begotten thee. Paul said, I've begotten you in the Gospel as a father. They have ten thousand instructors and, he said, Ye have one father, that's me, he said. Follow me as I follow Christ. So then, God said, Thou art my son, bone and flesh of his flesh. Thou art my son and thou hast past from death unto life and thou shalt never come into condemnation. Thou art alive forevermore. Hallelujah! I believe every word of it. Thou hast overcome the evil one. Born of my spirit and the evil one toucheth thee not and thou art without spot and without blemish. Thou canst not sin because thou art born of me, and my seed,m even my Word remaineth in you. Giving off that faith of conformity of translation, of transfiguration, Somebody said, You don't have to get excited about it. I can't help but get excited about it, because it's exciting to me. And this thing is real to me. I don't know how much gold I eat, I don't know how real that is, but that's what it said od the bottle, but folks, this I know, I get the stimulation of revelation as Brother Branham said, I get the Inside information on this. I know this is in there. When I eat banana pudding, I know I got it in there. That's right. And when I get this on the inside of me, I know that I've got something in there. It's like a mother bringing forth her child, if that child is alive, she knows it. Nobody can't tell her anything else. It doesn't make any difference if somebody says, Oh, the baby's whatever. No, no I know better than that. See, she knows. Nobody can't tell her. And that's the way I am. I know that little ones alive in there. I can feel him kicking around in there. It don't make no difference what anybody says, he's in there. If Feel the stimulation. Hallelujah! THe Bible said that the little babe jumped within the womb when Mary got close to John the Baptist's mother. That little baby jumped in the womb. See, and I can tell little baby's in there. Paul said, I travail until Christ be formed within you, and he's in there and I can tell he's in there. And every time I get to talking about this Holy Ghost he jumps. Every time somebody comes close to me and every time they get close to me and they get to feeling real good and they get to believing, I feel something go like that, and he jumps and I feel it all through me. Somebody say, Praise the Lord! What is it? The Bible said, If the Spirit be in you, If Christ be in you, If this be in you. This Christ, this spirit, this Holy Ghost, if thiss Spirit be in you that was in Christ Jesus, it raised him up from the dead and by that babe on the inside it will also quicken your mortal body. You can feel that quickening, you can feel that Jesus. You can tell that we're not playing games that this thing is real. Say, Well, why do you get so excited? How in the name of reasoning can I help but get excited, when I think that I'm God in the earth, That God is walking the earth again, God, not some man, but God is walking the earth again. Somebody said, who do you think you are? Verily, Verily I say unto you, Jesus said, before Abraham was, I am. Who are you? let me ask you that question. Where was you when the morning stars togeather and the sons of God leaped for joy? Where was you? I know where I was, where was you? Have you ever entered into the treasures of the snow? Maybe you haven't but I have. And oh, they're so beautiful. What a glorious time, what a wonderful event. What am I doing? Where are we? Where are we going? Where have we been? What are we? And the Revelation of Jesus Christ, Jesus walked day by day and grew. And one day he stood before them and he said, I'm here. I'm here. They said, What are you talking about? He said, Me and my Father's one. I done discovered it. Me and My Father's one. They said, now wait a minute. Abraham's our father. We're not children of corruption. We were not born of fornication. Jesus said, I know better than that, because I know we don't have the same father and I know who my father is. He said, You are of your father the devil. He said, That's who you are. And the Bible said, They were ready to stone him, who is your father? I'm asking the question Who is your father? Are you born of corruption? The child is known by his doings. What are you doing? Are you leaning to the flesh? Are you interested in the flesh? Are you doing the things of the flesh? Is your ambition of this world? Who are you? Do you even have the birthright? The angel came to me, he said, Where is the stone of your birth? I said, Oh, I thought, Oh my God, O don't know. I don't know. But I'm glad he said, I'll get you one. I'm glad that he said, I'll get you one, because when he said, I'll get you one, that means that I had one. Isn't that right? Where is the stone of your birth? He said, I'll get you one. Now he couldn't have gotten me one if there wasn't one. See if there's one back there for me. He said, Brother Pike, where do you get that? The Bible said, that this was given to me in Christ Jesus before the world ever was. And that it was brought to light at Calvary. Today I'm comprehending it and I'm having a jubilee. How are you comprehending it,Brother Pike? The heights, the depths and the widths. I'm comprehending it by the Revelation of the Son of God on the inside of me for the time is at hand. Halleluah! Unto as many believe gave he power, to as many as believe gave he power, real true God believers faith in the word. God has given you power. Have you got power? What kind of power are you talking about Brother Pike? To as many as believed to them gave he power. Ye shall receive power when the Holy GHost is come upon you. For after the Holy Ghost is come upon you, that is the Holy Ghost is Power. Jesus was driven into the wilderness and after forty days of subduing the flesh, when the Spirit got the flesh under control he come back out and he said, I've returned in the power of the Spirit, that is he did by his expressions. Driven into the wilderness, the Spirit drove him into the wilderness. He had the power. He had the Spirit. He had His father was one, but he went there to subject the flesh and to get the flesh out of the way, so that the devil which is the infiltration within the flesh, Paul said, within the flesh is no good thing. To get the infiltration out of the way by controlling the flesh; and the Bible said, He returned in the power of the Spirit. So then we've got power. What kind of power have we got? Power of the Spirit. Power to transform our minds. Power to transform our spirit. Power to transfigure our bodies into his image and into his likeness. Power. Somebody say, I don't see this power. you don't have to see it. Glory to God! It's still in there. You're just blind that's all. You've got eyes, you're in darkness. You're walking in darkness and the prince of this world, even Lucifer has blinded your eyes with intellectual reasoning and you're leaning to your own understanding and you're knowing people after the flesh and you're not looking beyond the veil, but to as many as believe to them gave power! Somebody would say, Brother Pike, but I don't see that power I don't believe it's in the church. If it is me see it! You're blind, if God said it's there, it's there, whether you ever see it or not. God said there is power that's in the church. To as many believe to them he give power! Are there any believers in here? Raise your hand. You mean you're confessing you got power. For everybody that believes they've got power, raise your hands. What's wrong with the rest of them? You are unbelievers. See, if you don't believe the power is there you're unbelievers. Somebody said, Bless God, if you can do this, yu do that, you do that; John never did it. He still had power. Not that he had the infilling of the Holy Ghost so far as being born again, but he had the infilling of the Holy Ghost so as it was with the prophets when the Holy Ghost came to them, moved through them and did great and mighty things. It was the power of God. It's not by might, but it's by my Spirit saith the Lord. Somebody said, But how could you have this power, Brother Pike. The Bible teaches that Jesus went into the wilderness and after forty days of conquering the flesh, the problems with the world today is that they don't conquer the flesh. Somebody said, But I fasted; what's that got to do with it? Somebody said, But I prayed Brother Pike, what's that got to do with it? So did Israel, so does witches, so does devils. What's that got to do with it? Brother, the thing is, do you have the Holy Ghost. A witch don't and the devil don't. Do you have the Holy Ghost? If you've got the Holy Ghost, then you've got power. And I'm telling you again, don't care how much you believe. You can be Charismatic, you can be Baptist, you can be Esau, whatever you want to do, and you can pray and you can cry and you can do all that you want to, but unless you have the potentialities of the Son of God, you'll never be a Son of God. Unless you have that potentiality on the inside of you you'll never be a Son of God. Why is that? Because you cannot have faith. You say, But I believe. So does the devil. But when Jesus spoke of believing he spoke of faith. And the Bible said, All men don't have faith. Al men can believe, but all men have faith. See, to believe in the Word of God is faith. To believe in God's ministry of the Word, that's faith. To honor, to obey, to conform to; if you love me, you'll keep my commandments. Real faith is incorporated in your lifestyle. Show me your faith without your works. I'll show you my faith by my works. The child is known by his doings. So then, what is it? It's faith. You say, Well, I've got to have somebody to pray for me, Brother Pike> You don't have to have nobody to pray for you. If you're a Son of God, you might be a baby you might have to have somebody pray for you. You might not be developed, you might have to have somebody to pray for you, but every babe, even a babe has enough power to blow this world off of the map. Just a babe has that kind of power with God. The Bible said, As quick as he was caught up to the throne he took a rod and began to rule as a man child. Just a babe. Out of the mouth of babes God has perfected praise. So then, there's power but brethren we've got the potentiality. We've got the potentiality. That means that we can develop. We've got true faith; and to as many as believe to them God gave the power to become the Sons of God. You've got the power to believe yourself out of this world. You've got the power to transfigure you body from a natural body, just as Enoch did and make your body eternal. You've got the power to transformate. You've got the power to transfigure. You've got the power of healing potentiality, within you to heal your own body. The faith that if you're a babe and can't believe that way that you can believe in somebody else; and though the rain comes on the just and the unjust, yet though they can be healed they can't be saved, because they don't have potentiality of fore - knowledge inbred within them as to salvation. So then, Jesus said, Verily, verily I say unto you that before Abraham was, I am, he said. That is to say before Abraham was ever created in the world, I was back there with my father. Father, restore unto me the joys that I had with thee before the world ever was, before Abraham ever come into this world, I had to come on the scene and said, let there be an Abraham. Folks, a lot of things you don't understand. And I'd like to tell you but you're dull of hearing. I'd like to take more time but we've already took long enough. I'd love to be able to deal with you as real spirituals, and I'd love to walk with you in a place you've never walked before; but see, the Bible said, In that you're not spiritual, you can't speak unto people ass unto spiritual, be sincere. He said, And desire the sincere milk of the Word that you might grow as a baby an keep on growing. Get the spirit of Revelation, and let this thing reveal to you who yu are. Somebody said, Well, I know who I am. I'm not taking about vainly being puffed up by your fleshly mind, thinking that you're something when you're nothing. I'm talking about getting the word of God and getting the spirit of God getting the knowledge of God and getting the Mind of Christ, and let this thing talk to you from glory to glory and from Word to and understanding to understanding until something leaps on the inside and says, My God! My God!, and you begin to recogeize who you are and what you are. Who do men say that I am? Somebody said, Well, I don't know about that, you're just what I see you to be. Well that's all right. But that's what they thought about John, too. But they found out that wasn't it at all. You're talking about that prophet over there. Oh no, no. Greater than a prophet. See, they wasn't looking right. So then, there is something that's happening. What is it? The Revelation of Jesus Christ, the time is at hand. What do you mean, Brother Pike, the time is at hand. I mean it's time for the translation. I mean it's time for what you call the rapture. I mean it's time for the church to find out who they are and where they are and where they're going and what they've done. It's time for rewards and it's time for the Word of God to call you what you are. Judgment begins at the house of God. There's a transformation, another dimension. That's foreign to me; but it's not to them that come to the understanding, Even as babes you might not see, but you'll come to it. You got to come to it because you can't get out of this world no other way. Somebody said, I'll die to this world, You don't die out of this world. If you die just get more involved. They throw the dirt over face and dig you a hole, you're more in the world. So you don't die and get out of this world. You've got to do better than that. You love the Lord? Somebody said, I'll be resurrected and get out of this world, I agree to that, but when you get out of this world, you'd be cast out this world, you'd be cast into hell, hell from beneath. So then, the only way that you could really get out of this world and get in the right place is by divine transformation of faith in the world and the knowledge and the understanding of God and that's what the church is not getting, and that's where the church isn't going to get, neither Bethlehem nor any other church until they get their eyes open, and they're not going to get there eyes open until they go to God like Paul and the scales fall from their eyes; then they're able to wash away their sins, and then they are able to understanding what the Great Light was that blinded them, because that's what it's doing to the world. Like Brother Branham said one time, them angels went down to Sodom and Gomorrah to blind them people down there. Said, That's what he went down there for, or that's why they went down there. That's what it is: it's a religious blinding. You might not se it but that's what it is. All right, I want you to stand with me. The most exciting time of the entire service to come people and that is when you go to dismiss and that time is here. What a day that shall be when my Jesus I shall see. When I look upon his face, He'll receive me by his grace. What a day, glorious day that shall be. You love the LordZ? Let's sing this little song together. If I don't remember it, maybe Brother Frank will. Give me another key, Frank. ( He sings: From the East and the West)... sing it again with me. ( They sing again)... sing it again... can you sing it just one more time?... Let's lift our hands up together, can we? Hallelujah! Who are you tonight? Who do men say that I am? Hallelujah! Who are you tonight? Who do men say that I am> Hallelujah! Who are you tonight? The Bible says that the world is waiting for the manifestation of the Son and daughters of God, waiting for the manifestations of the Sons of God. Who are you tonight? he whole world, coming from the East, coming from the West, Hallelujah! Coming to feast with the King. Hallelujah! Somebody say, Hallelujah! Glory! Hallelujah! Can you say, Hallelujah! HAllelujah! Who are you tonight? Wonderful, wonderful Jesus. Wonderful things are taking place. Lift your hands and let's love the Lord. Hallelujah! While you're praising god tonight, loving the Lord, I'm going to call Brother David Paul up here. I saw him come up on the plantform, let's just lift our hands and love Him tonight. Glory to God! Glory to God! Oh Brother Pike, What's wrong with you Brother Pike. What's wrong with you? Oh, I don't know. I just got to thinking about this thing, and the more I thought about it, the more I become part of it, the more I become part of it the more ZI thopught about it, and I just believe it, folks. I just believe it's in me and I'm in it, and I'm part of it, and it's part of me, and I just believe this thing is really happening the way I'm saying that it's happening and I'm just feeling good all over. Hallelujah! Praise be unto God! Hallelujah! While David's coming let's lift those hands and love the Lord, and you do that? ( Tape 3 side 1 )......... I do know this that tonight had to do with a special thing. As a matter of fact that's why I've got this shirt on. As I've told you this shirt really as far as wearing a shirt around, the world would cal this too loud. And I suppose it was that way when Joseph wore coat of many colors, but anyway, Jacob made it for him anyway. And I do believe in moderation. The Bible said, Let your moderation be known in all things,But I started out tonight and something said, Put this shirt on. I said, No, it's too loud. Something said, Put the Shirt on. I said, Okay, I'll put the shirt on. So, something had taken place yesterday that was outstanding that had to do with the rent veil and something was taken place today. Something took place when we were over in Indiana. This trip had to do with something. And it was so amazing as to how that Brother Parnell had the first service at night to introduce te day. And then god kindly gave us the morning service as to the Bible, to the fact that the Bible said, The daystar dawning within your heart. Such a beautiful thing in the Revelation of the colors. You know God's color really is white but in that it has all the colors of the rainbow. As a matter of fact I'm looking out the door at the fountain. It has a great significance that relates to the fountain that Jimmy's got in his yard, and it's beautiful; it's colors of the rainbow and it really looks refreshing when you're as hot as I am right now, but anyway, this little shirt as you very well know, has great signficance. This shirt, this material is called Joseph's coat of many colors. And another Brother Mitch and his wife principally was involved in this thing of making the little piece that goes over the sacred desk in front of the you know the Bible stand over in Eden you remember how that I had told them and I'll try not to take but a few minutes, over in Eden you remember how that I told them that, Be still and know that I am God, that Brother Branham had used, how that we had been given the old one, the one that came out of the tabernacle was given to us, the orignal one that Brother Branham, that they put up for Brother Branham; and it got lost. And then they made me a new one and they put it up over the Bible stand, and then the Lord spoke to me over in Eden that was to be folded up and laid away, do we did. Folded it up and laid it away, and then in alabama there was a new thing that was being done and it had to do with the Revelation, and the Lord said, take this down and put one across there that says; The Revelation of Jesus Christ. So we did. Brother Mitch and them, they made it, and we put it, or they put it on there, and then they brought to me this little shirt, it's really a little coat you wear outside, I just wear it on the inside, but it's made to wear outside like a little coat, and it's called, the name of the material is called Joseph's coat of many colors; so then the material thst they used for the Revelation of Jesus Christ was called Joseph's coat of many colors. And of course that meeting, you remember how David Paul he had those, well you've got them in here, you did have them in here, they've moved them out now, those chairs was painted in a variety of colors. Brother Smith did that, and there's a lot we could say about that; but while we were in Indiana we took the morning service, and then following the morning service for it to go back into the night out of which it came, Brother Red Mckinney took the service, so we preached on God's Virtuous Lady that morning, and that Terry the boy that come out on the Church of God, you remember we said that the Church of God, would be the one that would back this and that the Assemblies of God was behind the other; that is would relate to the Church of God. But anyway, Terry, the one that had come down here, come out of the Church of God, our message that led him out, he'd come here and sing for us and played the piano. I did not recognize him because he grew him self a heavy beard, but he got up to sing on Sunday morning. It was Sunday morning wasn't it? Sunday morning. Now Sunday morning has to do with the marrow after the Sabbath to the Jews because Saturday is their Sabbath so Sunday's their resurection; Whereas I was to be there on Sunday because that has to do with the Jews, Brother Branham the quotes whatever. Over here it has to do with the bride or the Gentiles, and I suppose to be here on monday because this is the Gentiles morrow after the Sabbath - Monday; whereas we got here for that. But amyway on a Sunday morning Terry got up and sang the song that we had written. He said I want to sing a song that Brother Pike has written and the song was " The Chief Cornerstone ". The stone that the builders rejected the same became the head of the corner. And he sang " The Chief Corner Stone". And the anointing of God fell mighty and Brother J. T. was crying and he got up behind him and out of all the singing that was done there was not anything that happened as it did when that song was sang. And so when we came here on Wednesday night service, but I wasn't suppose to be here, and then we got here for Wednesday night service, which is again the middle of the week. And then of course this the honors that I don't know anything about, but tonight had to do with the beginning of a new thing and whatever this is I know that it will have to do with that because I know the way God works and it's really amazing to me because I knew nothing at all about it. So if Sister Betty will come up here we'll, I'll pray over this oil right here that Don left for me to pray over. Don's wanting me to pray that God will give him a job. Don has to do with this. He brought his birthday cake down and shared it with us down there in the little cafe that's ready to opened. We had named that little cafe The manger. And here he came down there having to do with the birth of the child, he was having a birthday, having been in arizona, called back. We told him he needed to be born again so he came and was born again, or he come and had a birthday. He really come and wanted to give his heart to God, had a little problem that had to with the authorities at Stone Mountain that just made everything real colorful, and then Brother Cobbs, Don's wife's dad, having to do with the new harvest, that followed us back. Have you got just a minute to set down there and let me, the more I talk the more I get in involved, the more I try to stop the more I'm afraid I'll get the Lord upset at me. Anyway, Don had a birthday, he brought the cake about seven of us got a piece of his cake down in the manger, it was right there that place where we cut the hole through the wall. It had to do with the tomb. We spoke about it. They got pictures. They know what happened that day. And strangely enough right at that manger ther's two bails of hay. They had threw it down there to keep the water out. And there was hay. There it gave it a real manger setting. but there's was about seven of them eating and I said, You just watch for sure Dwight Beachy will come along. He's got to do with that eight and the sounding of the trumpet and he'll come just as sure aswe were standing here. And about the time we were through eating our cake, up he came, But that also related to what was taking up at Jeff. and I'm not going to go into detail but I'm just going to say this; that my people followed us that morning; and Brother Conrad having to do with Moses, the veil, learned in all the ways of the Egyptians, and he's a shrewd person, I'll tell you that. He was there and he video. Video always has to do with revelation or rapture. And that up near Illinois the land of Lincoln, Kentucky. And there he was in that Lincoln that he had brought from California, that goes back to Brother Branham, back to the Lincoln side of it, you've heard Brother Branham say; There wasn't but two good things that ever come out of Kentucky and that was him and Lincoln: but anyway there was the California thing, having to do with the Full Gospel Businessmen, he never changed the tag, which had to do with the resurrection of Brother Branham, just perfectly in the things that was taking place, Brother Cobbs, the new harvest, that's coming over the Jordan, in that Brother Cobbs was right on our bumper; Brother Conrad trying to get in and couldn't. Brother Conrad very definitly did not want to get ahead of us, but I told my wife, I said, Those truckss are going to force him ahead of us because he's suppose to be ahead of us, and they did. Finally he had to pull over in ahead of us, in between Brother Mitch Hamby and me, Brother Cobb was behind us and the brethren behind them: but anyway Mitch was in the Chrysler, Mitch having to do with the undertaker, the death of Brother Branham, we were suppose to cut off at Hamburg when we left up at sscottsburg, Hamburg being between Scotsburg and Jeff, and I thought Mitch he's going to see something here and he is ont going to do that and he did, so we went right on down to Jeff, we were going down to Jerry's Place where we eat sometimes and our followers and Brother Branham's people ussse to go there pretty regular: but any way we left and we weren't there for the night meeting for Brother Red McKinney to preach, Brother Red had to do with the blood life, and the expulsion and whatever. But going past, we say, Abraham, Graham,or Billy Graham, you know, or William Branham. brother Mitch had to do with that. They were followers of Brother Branham for years. His mother and all of them, and when he got there to that exit he was suppose to turn off but he didn't do that; he just kept on a coming, so we were following the Chrysler from Georgia. It was a beautiful thing. The Chrysler having also a symbol there. And when he got to Jerry's the only thing is Mitch didn't eat with us. He left us at Jerry's and he went right back to where he was suppose to go, which indicated that folded up laid away, and we went in and set down at the table at Jerry's. There was ten men setting there and they put out four tables together, and I thought now that won't never do. That indicated the infiltration and I was at the end of one table. The others along the table, and Brother Conrad at the end of that table, at the forth table; whereas they were made one. But there was not one person around his table, so that got next to him, and he just got up and he just moved that table out of the way, and then there was three tables which worked out right and he got at the end of that. But anyway, I knew I told my wife I said, Now when we get to Jerry's, I had been telling her what was going to happen, what the revelation and all that was taking place. I I usually do that, step by step while we're there at the motel or whatever. And I said, Brother Conrad when we get to Jerry's he'll leave us, he'll go back to Louisiana; I said, Because it has to do with the body, the redemption of the body, the dispute over the body, Brother Branham, the veil, that folded up and laid away. And the Louisiana Purchase, the purchased possession, the body, and sure enough that's what him and Kenny did. Well the veil remained between me and Mitch, the Chrysler, until we got to jerry's and Mitch turned around and left, went back to what we said about the Exit or the place; and then Brother Conrad moved, and there as tonight that this has to do with, the same thing, we were caught up like that right out of the midst of the brethren, and I told them what had happen. We were caught up and part of our people as we say went this way back down to Louisiana, part of our people, going west that is, and then part of our people coming east, moving this way, and we were caught up, not to move westward, as it was with Brother Branham, cause we had just left the westward part of it, which had to do with the Lincoln in California, and Brother J. T. Parnell that related to Brother Branham and we moved eastward to meet our people here which has to do with tonight. This is the meeting. So in coming back here, being caught up, being caught up, we come right over the storm, come over here; and of course Brother Cobbs following us, as I said, It had to do with Brother John Lane, the flag going up down there, the little tent, claiming the land, George Israel being married down there, Jack Palmer, restoring that the palmerworm has taken away because it was a person from Brother Palmer's place that got Brother Cobb's following, and with that his people's coming back out to the restoration of the palmerworm, coming back to the new harvest, having to do with Brother Don and that night of the ice and snow when he and Brother Allen up here mistaken me for Joseph in that I had on Joseph's boot's walking around in the snow. So, that night as you very well know, I won't try to go into those things, Brother Morris Allen was there, having to do with Mary and the birth, MAryland, and there he was, and then having to do with Don, for Don's name really is the same as mine, and Don coming from the Indian Hawks, that Canada, Canaan land, see coming down to get a wife, that is a bride, the new harvest, and then leaving the Hawk family, that goes back to the negative side, and coming over to what have been the eagle family, that is to say, Brother Cobbs and them that followed Brother Branham, that is his family, but as it wass with the cap that Brother Taylor gave us just as I left, me and then the twins, and I could pick up Franks spirits the reason I said that then, the dove leading the eagle, and that's what the caps are, it's a picture of the dove leading the eagle, but anyway, that was real timely for what Brother Taylor did there, and in this Brother Don, going being re - baptized at the same time Brother Morris Allen's wife was re - baptized, which again brought it to the same setting of the man child, and Marysville. And then when we came back there was Brother Morris Allen in the ditch digging. That had to do with a perfect thing concerning the resurrection because all of this has to do with getting over the Jordan. When you come to the terms: a thousand, it means you've gone into Canaan. That's what it has to do with typically, a thousand. It usually always has to do with the millennium, a thousand means a millennium. A millennium means a thousand. That's in numerical terms. So then, coming back, see, it had to di with Don and Canada which has to do with Canaan land. Like somebody was talking to me today, about Canada. Which has to do with Canaan land. I said, We're planning to do some work in that area. Anyway, there was some things happening today. Some outstanding things happening today. And they were happening yesterday. So then, a lot that we could say about that if we went to put all that together, which reminds me, the man that Don is dealing with, he wanted you to call him right away about the house. Okay, he's got everything ready, he said. I want to take this out because I could go on and on with what we're saying about those things, but I'm sure that you understand. I'm sure that you can put them together. I'm sure God would reveal them to you, but this night has to with that,that is we're meeting you here, and fo course it goes back to what, Who do men say that you are? Or what are you tonight? Who are you tonight? Do you really know? It's for sure if there's a birth you've got to know. You've got to know. Okay, Brother David Paul come up here if you will, Betty. This is beautiful. Plaques is something exciting about plaques you know. Always something exciting. Okay. David Paul. Let Moma there on that side and you come right here. Okay, I am going to let David Paul read this to you as I say, I knew nothing about this at all. Nothing. ( David Paul reads. ) ( It says; Holiness unto the Lord. In highest recognition and honor from the brethren of Little Bethlehem to Reverend George L. Pike and his beloved wife Betty M. Pike, for unparallelled and distinguished service toward Jesus Christ and all the sheep of his pasture and heart - felt godly concern for lost souls and unselfishly sharing with the poor, the widows and the orphans across the world.) You know what, honestly, I'm telling you the truth, you couldn't have given me a bucket of gold, and I mean that, a bucket of gold. You must think I like it pretty good, I've been eating it. But you realy couldn't give me a bucket of gold and thrill my heart anymore than words like that. It's for sure that I'm not worthy of any such words, any such thoughts from people. And things like that, honors like that belong to Christ and to God, Because I can assure you there's nothing in my life that is worthy of any of that, never has been, and never will be. It is Christ as to what has shown forth in my life in any way. And in such a little way as to what I wished that i had have really give place to him for. But it's Christ. And all the glory and honor be to Christ in any praise or commemeration or whatever. These words belong to him and I'm just a servent as Paul said, I'm a he;per of your faith. And if there had been any body worthy, it would have been my wife. David Paul and the wife does a real good job. I guess I am there number one problem. But anyway, I thank God because you would glorify God within me or praise the Lord within my heart. Paul said, They praised Christ within me, and to praise Christ, to be able to see that much, that's what thrills my heart, is to think that maybe you did see a little bit of Christ in my life enough to love at least to over look my faults, that you might say some good things to encourage my heart; but there's one thing for sure folks, through I'm not worthy of this and certainly haven't done this in any way as to what I want to do it, but there's one thing about it, this is what I want to do. This is what I want to do. You said, What I want to do and what I would like to do and what I would like to be as to the concern of God, His people and the hunger and the needy, the winows and the orphans especially, so then I'd like to say that from the bottom of my heart, I thank God for this. This is very precious to me and very dear to me. I thank the Lord for it and I want to say, I appreciate you. I love you, and if there's any thing that I can do, I will do. I certainly want to do it, and I'm trying. I'm stumbling and staggering, but i'm trying. I do get excited over what I say, because I believe it. It's real. Now, I'm going to pray over this oil and I think that you understand the connection between the different things that I've said tonight and what I'm saying here, the plaque and this honor. I think you understanding what I saying. Because truly Christ is in your heart. Truly Christ has come in. The coming of the revelation is Christ. The time is at hand and it has come into your heart and he's there. And I'll tell you this as I told Brother Gary and them, Brother Gary tried his best to give me a Chrysler, today, a new Chrysler. He brought a new Chrysler yesterday and wanted to give it to me. And I thank Him and the Brethren had something worked up and I just didn't feel that I should Take that. I just felt that I should kind of hold off and not take it, and so I did. but anyway, I don't know what their plands are: but I want to pray over this oil and I know, I know with what's being said, I know that you don't understand. I know you don't, but I told Brother Gray and them last night or whoever it was. Gary and them last night or whoever it was. Gary wasn't there last night at the meeting, or Monday night. I told them, I know that you brethren have faith. I know that you've got faith. I've checked into it and you've got faith. No dought about it. There's some of you, I've checked it out down there at the Men's meeting to just see, and you've got faith. That means that you're going to be getting good things and great things and wonderful things, because you've come into something, and you've got that great super - power. And I'm going to pray over this oil, and I know, I'm going to say this one more time, I know that some of you don't know what happen. You have no idea what happened. You're so, some of you are so ambitious for your ministry, and so ambitious for your vision and for your homes and for your desire and your business and to do the things that you want to do that you have no idea what's going on. Though you've listened to everything I said to night, you still have no idea what's going on. I know that's true. You say, you can't know that. I know that. I can pick up your spirits as it comes from you to me and I can tell exactle where you are and what you got, and what you didn't get. So I know that you don't know. But I'm trusting that some of you according to what I can pick up, got some enlightenment and this thing is beginning to dawn in your hearts as to an understanding as to what's happening, and believe you me something is happening greater than you could ever imagine. There's nothing has ever happening in the history of the world like what's taking place. But I want you to stand up with me, and we're going to pray for this oil for Don and while we're praying, I want to pray for the sick. There's some that come for healing and some needs a touch. And I promise from the bottom of my heart,tell you the truth and lie not, my conscience bearing witness and the Holy Ghost that is the truth, if you'll believe with me when I pray, don't make - believe, don't try to believe, believe; trying to believe is the best proof in the world that you're not believing. Because if you're trying to believe, you couldn't be believing, but if you'll just outright believe god, just fall on God, throw your all upon God, and say, My God, I don't care if my thoughts are crazy, or people think I'm crazy or whatever, I'm just casting my cares upon God because he cares for me and I casting myself on God and I don't care how radical I am or how crazy you think I am, I believe it. I'm trusting God with my last breath. God said it, It's got to be. If that isn't true, then I'm not going to heaven. We're all bunch of fools anyway. And we're just giving our money and wasting our time, and if there iss a God, for Christ's sake, I need to believe it and trust with all my heart. That's the way it's got to be folks, when you seek him with all of you heart, then you'll find him; so as I pray for this oil that God will anoint it. I want you do just that. I just want you to throw your faith out there before God. Don't cast away your faith. It hath great recompense of reward, and I want you to believe with me tonight. Whatever you desire, decree it in your heart. I'll believe with you. I promise you in the name of the Lord, he'll give it to you. I prayed for a woman that was dying of cancer. She came here a few days back. They sent me word the other day, she said, she had just a little bit of pain that tried to come back since then. She rebuked it and said she had been feeling real good and said, She hasn't had no more pain. But let's just pray together. Can we do that? Just stretch your hands out in this direction, by letting me know that you do believe in what I'm saying and that you are standing with me in faith in what we're trying to believe, can you do that? Father, God of heaven, in the wonderful name of your lovely, holy child Jesus, I thank you for this commemeration service tonight to honor and glorify the revelation even the spirit of Jesus Christ that's in the midst of the people, and all honor and praise and glory be to your lovely name in that you can come into my heart my father, and set upon the throne of your lovely kingdom. god that you can be king in my heart and king over all of my dominion. Oh,Lord that you might be the King of kings and Lord of lords in my life. Father, having your way in my life, and in that you said, All things are mine. Everything that you created through out the world then Father I give it all back to you. Because through me, Oh heavenly Father, as the King of kings upon my heart, I clam all things that's mine and therefore I give it all back to thee, so it's yours, Dear God, and as King of kings in my heart, rule and reign over all things for it is yours. And I Pray dear Father, over this bottle of oil for the sake of your lovely child Jesus and in his holy righteoussness name I pray that you'll anoint it, even as you made the ground holy wherein Moses stood, make it holy and inspire the faith of those dear God that look in this direction, or that believe Lord, as this oil is used for your glory, that is Father for their healing. And dear wonderful God I pray over the people tonight, I pray in the name of Jesus, as I stretch out my hands tonight, I pray in the name of Jesus for the healing of the body. Father, heal their bodies. Lord, the dispute is over the body as to whether it has a right to these or not. Father, it has a right to healing. The body has a right. It's been redeemed. It has a right to escape death. It has a right to overcome problems. It has a right to your loved, to your great wonderful inspiration and peace and joy and prosperity and eternal blessings. So tonight I pray for body, soul, and spirit. Paul said, That I might present you body, soul, and spirit without spot, wrinkle and blemish. Oh God, in that I've espoused you to one even Jesus. I present thy bride tonight to thee. Oh God, without spot. She's without blemish. Lord, there's no fault in her. She's bone of your bone and flesh of your flesh. And Father, it was said that we find no fault in this just man. So dear God tonight there's no fault in her. There is no spots, there is no blemishes. No one can lay anything to her charge. You've justified her as your elect. And dear God, I present her to you tonight as a spotless bride. An eternal being, even thine own body. And dear God, we speak healing tonight to this body. Lord, to these people. Whatever the infirm spirit is would oppress this body, I command it in the name of Jesus Christ to leave these people. Whatever the doubt that they be not of a doubtful mind, but of a believing mind, Father, having a believing mind, not a doubtful mind. A wondering, bewildered, fearful mind, but trusting in you with all of their heart, not leaning to their own understanding, getting rid of that old doubtful understanding of their own, Father to believe in you with all their heart. I speak healing even by faith in Christ Jesus, that you heal them and make them well. And move the pain and bless them with all blessings in heavenly places in Jesus name. Amen. Brother David would you come up here and dismiss us. Brother David Paul is going to dismiss us. There is the oil.
