The Rending Of The Veil Of The Flesh

To whom shall we go seeing that you alone have the words of eternal life. Jesus said, My words are spirit and they are life. I marvel as I travel around through the world at the different ones that profess Christianity and talk about Christianity. I marvel at them in that they don't know any thing about the Word of God. And I think, Well, my dear God! Where is their eternal life. Is eternal life something outside of the Word of God, and they don't know anything about the Word of God. How could they have eternal life. Because Jesus said, "He that heareth my Words and believeth on Him that sent me, he hath passed from death unto life and shall never come into condemnation." Folks, if you don't know anything about the Word of God let's be realistic and realize we don't know anything about God, because God is the Word. "In the beginning was the Word and the Word was God," and the Word came forth and put on flesh and dwelt among us and be beheld Him as of the only begotten of the Father, full of grace and truth. To know the Word is to know God. Not to know the Word is not to know God. And to know the Word and not to believe the Word is not to get the benefits of God and to really know God and believe God, then that means that the Word has been incorporated into your life style, and that what you are doing is living the Word and that you are from measure to measure, from glory to glory, inwardly speaking, as to the inner man, as to that which is to be made manifest in the outer man as to the body, as to the life of Christ being made manifest in your mortal genes you are changing from your mind into the mind of Christ. And that life, as of the Word, is being made manifest in your mortal genes that ye may be eternal. There is nothing that can translate you except the Word. Even as in the days of Enoch when the Bible said Enoch, as to the seventh from Adam, which was symbolic of the church, being translated in that he was not under the law, being translated by faith, the Bible said as to prior to his translation, and this was his testimony, that he pleased God. Whereas, the Bible said, Without faith it is impossible to please God. He that cometh to God must believe that He is and believe that He is a rewarded of them that diligently seek Him. And so then faith, that faith, without that faith we cannot please Him and the faith cometh by hearing and the hearing by the Word of God. And the Bible said as concerning Enoch, since they had never at that day had the scribes, as to scribe the Word, or to write the Word, then the Bible said the heavens declared His handiwork. And for three hundred years or over, Enoch walked with God and then he was not, for God took Him, for before His translation He had this testimony that He pleased God. And the one thing that has always been fascinating to me about the Lord Jesus Christ, He made this statement that I do always the things that please My Father. I do always the things that I see My Father do, as to what we say, as to the eyes of understanding being enlightened, comprehending the heights, the depth, the width and the length of this wonderful great thing, then of course, we do the things that please the Heavenly Father. All right, so, we're glad to have you here this morning. We always appreciate you coming to be with us and if you're here for the first time if I can recognize you I always like to acknowledge you, and if someone writes me a little note to let me know I always enjoy that because that means a lot to me to be able to recognize the newcomers. And sometimes it means something to them also, but if I don't get a note, I don't recognize you I don't know what to do, other than to say we're glad to have you. We're actively engaged in world evangelism to the best of our ability and to the facilities as to which God has given us, we're doing our best to utilize those for the glory of God since all things are made for Him and by Him, and for His glory were they made. Whereas, the Bible said, nothing that is made is here except by his act of creation. And all things emanate from God. Well, the war, according to the report that I got this morning, the ground troops have started in, been moving in for about twelve hours when I got the report this morning. It started about four o'clock according to their time and as we felt, according to the report they said that they were having waves of surrender, as to white flags. And we made the statement yesterday I felt like it would be that way and of course, they have to come to the ground troops going in. They always have to do that in a war, as a rule, because they have to go in and possess the city, whether they bomb it or whatever they do. And we had just several night ago seen the ground troops. I told my wife, about three nights ago was it, Betty? I said I saw several squadrons, and I say squadrons because I was in the air force, but anyway I saw them as they moved in. I saw like these over here and they were young men, as well as various ages of men as they begin to move in and I could here, the best I remember the rattling of the guns as they begin to fire. And it didn't look like they met all that much opposition as they moved in. Whereas, they are surrendering. A lot of them surrendering according to what I hear. When men fight they fight in waves. This wave comes and then another wave and another back up and on. And they made the statement that they were waving white flags and coming in waves, as with the white flag. So we spent a little time last night talking to the Lord about the situation, that God would help them and strengthen them as they moved in. It's very difficult when you go to pray, as to a man of God, or a child of God, because you cannot pray, God, let America win. You cannot pray, God, let the Iraqis win, and you cannot pray, God, let the Jews win. You have to say, Lord, we pray that Thy will be done. Let's give the Lord a hand. And we pray that God will have His will and have His way, and that if it is His will then if we are standing for what is right then we will win and if we do not stand for what's right and the other one stands for what's right then they win. Whereas, it's very obvious to me that we stand for the Lord Jesus Christ and they stand for a paganistic God, which gives us the winning side. And as I said concerning America, and this sounds a little boastful but I don't mean it that way. But America will never be defeated as long as the church is in America. When the church is translated and taken out America will be subjected to the rest of the nations. But until then there will never be a defeat for America. She will always be the great victorian because she has chosen God, as Jesus Christ to be her God. And though a lot of them have become paganistic and they don't even know their God. They've got one God and two gods and three gods, and some is a twoness, some's a oneness and some's a threeness. And they are all confused. Everyone I've talked to so far seems to be confused. Then you have to go back to the Bible and the Bible clarifies the whole thing, because there's nothing confusing about the Godhead, not anything. When people say that, you confuse me talking about the Godhead, that's because they have a spirit of confusion if you have the spirit of Christ. The Bible said Paul went into the city and the whole city was filled with confusion because he began to preach Jesus Christ as God, and it was because the rebellion of the copper smith and they that love the things of the world that the confusion came, not because of Paul. So in the darkness there is confusion. You don't know which way to go and you stumble and stagger, and they that walk in the dark they fall. If the blind lead the blind they all fall into the ditch. But it is very obvious that God has given us the victory through the Lord Jesus Christ. He always gives us the victory and since America, standing for the God, or the Lord Jesus Christ, then we'll surely win the victory. The only thing is that if Mr. Hussein had not made that thing a god contest by trying to turn it into a holy war he would have had a lot better chance. But when he brought it in as a contest with God then God had to take a part and God had to defeat him. And we have to remember that whether it is America, whether it is Iraq or Germany, or whether it is Israel they all will be defeated if they sin against God. And as I said, because of the church we are winning the victories all the time, because there is, though there be few that find it, little flock, as the Bible said. Yet it is in this country, as to standing for righteousness. But even Israel when they sinned, even one man sinned, as to Akin that took the two hundred shekels of silver and the golden wedge of about fifty shekels, the Babylonian garment, and hid it in his tent, it was from then that Israel began to lose the battle and Joshua fell upon his face asking God why He had brought them out there as to slay them, and so forth, before their enemies. And the Lord said, Get up, Joshua. I'm not to blame, He could have said. You are to blame or Israel is to blame. There is sin in the camp. For it was noted of Israel that when they walked perfectly before God, and they went to battle, no matter how great the odds were, no one man was lost. It was noted that one man could put a thousand to flight, as the Bible said, and two ten thousand. And Samson proved that when he took the jaw bone of an ass and slew a thousand men. And so did another great man when he took an ox gore and killed seven hundred men. And so did another when he rose up in the morning and said, the battle being not to the strong, or to the swift but it belongs to the Lord. He took his armor bearer and didn't even wait for the army and went out and defeated the whole army by himself; that is to say, as he called upon the name of the Lord. And then when Joshua and them went in and it looked like they were going to have a little problem, Joshua commanded the sun to stand still, as to say that the battle could not stop, that we've got a battle to fight and we must have daylight. So he said to the sun, You stand still over Gibeon, and you moon as in the Valley of Ajalon. And the Bible said it stood still and hasted not to go down for a whole day. And when it looked like there was a little problem God just rained stones out of heaven. And hail stones came down and slew the enemy. So always the majority is God. He always wins, even as in the wilderness when God rained down manna from heaven when they said, Can God prepare a table in the wilderness? And the enemy thought they had driven Israel out into the wilderness to perish then God rained manna down from heaven and for forty years they ate of that manna day by day. Which manna you would find today if you found the Ark of the Covenant you could find within there the little golden pot with the manna that would still be good. It would not be wormy. It would still be good, but if they tried to keep it as to themselves over night it became wormy. That is to say, God wants you and I to walk by faith day by day. And He wants to be our God. He wants our admiration and our faith and confidence in Him that every day of our life that we can receive of God this wonderful hidden manna. He said, And to him that overcometh I will give to him to eat of that hidden manna. Whereas, according to the Bible that hidden manna was Jesus because, that is to say Christ within Jesus, which is the revelation of Jesus Christ. For it was said that you must eat my flesh and drink my blood or you have no life in you. And said, Moses did not give you that manna from heaven. He said, My Father gave you that and I am the true bread that came down from heaven and you must eat of me. So then, as to the hidden manna, he that overcometh I will give to him this hidden manna. And the over coming there indicates that you must over come Satan in the outer man, as to your flesh, which is constantly in resistance to your inner man, the spirit, for according to the Bible there is a continual warfare between the body and the soul, or the inner and the outer man. And as to the one that wins, then that's according to the reward that you will receive. All right. Let's read just a little bit here. I don't know just exactly what we'll say but let's read just a little bit. The other night we read some from the book of Revelation. Some of you that understand what we're saying it wouldn't be needful for me to read this, but occasionally I read this over because some do not understand. When you talk about the revelation of Jesus Christ that goes over their head. They really don't understand what you are saying, but Paul spoke of having received the revelation and how that the mysteries were made known unto him. And said, Great is the mystery of godliness and I'm a steward of the mysteries. Whereas, Revelation 10 and 7 says, And at the sounding of the last trump the mysteries of God will be finished, in that the things of God have an end. But in the first chapter of the book of Revelation it clarifies it by saying, "The Revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave unto him to show unto his servants things which must shortly come to pass, and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John who bear record of the Word of God and the testimony of Jesus Christ of all things that he saw. Blessed is he that readeth and they that heareth the words of this prophecy and keep those thing which are written therein for the time is at hand." So, a lot of times I read this to remind you that in any era of time that the revelation comes it means the end of the world. As to that in the days of Noah as to the revelation as to what it was for their day when the rain come. Peter refers back to it as that being the end of the world. When Jesus came as to Christ being revealed as from within the Son of God, he refers to that again as being the end of the world. "For ye are the people upon whom the ends of the world have come." And now here we are in the latter time and he also pointed to this day as to the coming when it would be the end of the world. And I say again that when we say the end of the world we are so prone to think of everything blowing up and the heavens falling in and the stars falling and all these other things until we misconstrue the thing of God. And we don't really understand what the end of the world is. That makes it a real problem for us to understand the revelation of the Lord, or as to the age and times, as to the dispensations, but if you can remember this, as we go along, that with God there is no beginning and with God there is no end. And that with God there is no tomorrow and that with God there is no yesterday. And Peter said, Though I know that you know these things I feel while I'm abiding in this tabernacle I still need to bring it back to your remembrance, and it helps us when we come back to the remembrance of this to get into the mind of Christ, in that the mind of Christ is an invisible force which you cannot see except through eyes of understanding, as to divine comprehension. So, we know then that God is not a time creature like you are, or like I am, as to our first birth. And we know that when we're born again we're no more time creatures as the people are in their first birth. And we know also that God's policy is that he smites the first born and the first born must of necessity die. And always the second born gets the birthright. And as it is written, the elder shall serve the younger. So, it is even in this world as so as people age and as they go on to be aged, then they find themselves as servitude to the younger, or the younger takes over their wealth and their things and everyone goes to that sooner or later, as we say. At one time or another it goes to that. So that means that as we say, I believe I see, yeah, I see Suzanne and somebody coming in here. Oh, yes. That's my daughter Gracie and her husband was walking with Suzanne. I thought that was Myron, but I thought, What is Myron doing with Suzanne? So, I thought I was mistaken. But I didn't recognize Gracie there in the forefront. And also I see my Cynthia, my Dale and also Wayne. We're glad to have these folks here this morning. I really appreciate my children being with us. I heard that Wayne and Cynthia was coming to be with us this morning and also Dale. I don't know about Dale was coming this morning, but anyway she came last, her and was it, Michele. Michele. And then Suzanne is here this morning and also Myron and Gracie had said they were coming over but they surprised me. I didn't know they were anywhere in the neighborhood. I kept looking and the light kind of blurred and I thought, Well, that looks like Myron but he wouldn't be with Suzanne and I don't see Gracie. So I thought that must be her boy friend. But anyway, we're glad to have my children here. It's wonderful to have them here and I don't know that I'm right in this but David Durdin was going to be here this morning. I wonder if he's here. Is David here this morning? Yesterday God did a great thing for David. He was to be here and also my Danny was to be here this morning. Is Danny here? Okay. David wasn't with him, David Durdin? David was with him. Okay, that's wonderful. Let's give them a hand also, David and Danny. I really appreciate the people coming to be with us. I see somebody up here. I'm not sure whether I recognize them or not. They're over here to the right of Sister Lambert. Okay, your daughter Debbie and her daughter and the children. All right. Let's give these folks a hand. We also have Brother Darrell's daughter who has given her heart to God. And she comes almost with a regularity. About as regular, I guess, as she can come right now. But I heard a report the other day as to this Sister, and they said, You know, that girl really does live for God. And that's a wonderful testimony. When people can see Christ in your life that's wonderful, especially in the life of our young girls and boys because, you know, they are like little babes in Christ and you don't expect as much out of the children as you do those that have become seasoned as to be parents. Whereas, the Bible said the parents should lay up for the children. But nevertheless, they're going on to the full measure of the full stature of the first man Christ Jesus; going on to the full reward. And Jesus said, Feed my lambs. When He left that was one thing he was concerned about, was his lambs. As any mother and dad would be concerned abut their little ones if they were to leave them, He was very concerned about His lambs. Like a song that we wrote about who's going to feed my lambs. But anyway, I'm just saying that to; something comes across my mind as I say that, and that is, I believe, I don't know whether it was David Paul or somebody else that said this to me, but a lot of people will say, You know, I don't believe there is anybody perfect. But as this individual said to me, whoever it was, they said, But, you know, said it's strange. Said, Those same people will watch everything you do and if you do one little thing they get up set. They think you ought to be perfect. Let's give the Lord a hand. So then, they really don't know what they believe. There's one thing about it, they've got us under the guns all the time and if we make a bobble we'll find out how much they believe in perfection. The only thing is they don't believe in perfection in their own lives. That's what it is. All right. Is there somebody here that I'm over looking? Brother Morris? Where is Brother Morris? Somebody that I don't know or should know. Brother Morris raise your hand, I can't locate you with these lights glaring. Okay. Oh, I can't see because he's behind the post. Okay. Who is this Brother Morris? Two of them there isn't there? Yeah, I know but he could tell us his name again. Asa? Okay. Asa, you'll have to come more regular son, so I'll remember you. All right. Let's give the Lord one more hand before we read the Scripture. And I believe this is Winifred's brother here, or is it? He comes, you know, they change as they go along, you know. Everybody changes like the eagle. Everybody changes in their appearance, and women especially in their hair-do. They change every few days. Isn't this your brother? Okay. I thought he looked a little bit different. I usually recognize your brothers, and the name once again, now. Oh, I believe this is the one Betty spoke to me about. Is that right Betty? Well, we're certainly glad to have you. Let's give him a hand. And then again, we're glad to have Rob and family here that's just getting rooted and grounded in the wonderful things of God and also our Brother Bob and family. This come from California. And Brother Snyder had really worked with us since he's been here, in the school and whatever, he and his wife. And I guess Brother Snyder is here. Yep, I see him back over here in the corner. They work with us and their little family has become part of our Christian family here at Bethlehem. We welcome you to be part of the Christian family of Little Bethlehem. And it's called the home of the soul, and indeed it is the home of the soul and it's a place of rest. And people that come here usually always find peace. We've had people that come here under doctor's care that later stated that the peace they found here had given them a complete rehabilitation. We've had so many people come from around the different parts of the world that say God is in this place. Said, We are just so happy. And we have our problems. The family they feud a little bit once in a while and they differ a little bit once in a while, but they all try to live together as brothers and sisters in Christ as the God family. I say this so often. You've got to remember that even though you may cleave to your family as a natural family, yet it is a true fact that your natural family will diminish and be no more. You are only with your mother and daddy and brothers and sisters, and whoever, just for a few short years and unless they become Christians. In the event that you are a Christian, then there is a separation. And if they don't become Christians and you don't become Christians you'll be together for a long time. As a matter-of-fact, eternity. But it'll be a bad situation. But if you love the Lord and they don't love the Lord, that means that there is going to be a separation. And your family is only for a few days. It's full of trouble, Solomon said. But you are God parents, and you are God mother's and you are God brothers and sisters. The Bible speaks of mothers in Israel and Paul said, I've begotten you as a father in the gospel. And then the brothers and the sisters, as to these God parents then you ar going to be with them throughout eternity. You are they're children throughout eternity, or they are your parents if so be that you are a parent and have begotten those as to win souls. And these are jewels within your crown of living which is called the crown of life. God crowns your soul with life, eternal life is the crown of living. And everyone that you win to God is a jewel. He said, And I'll spare you as a man spareth his son when I come to make up my jewels. And these jewels, as to the radiance of those that turn many to righteousness shall shine as the brightness of the noon day. So they'll be crowns in your living throughout eternity that every time you see the brilliance and brightness of these, as to the radiance of joy and splendor they will be your crown of inspiration, as to having won them to God. And then they'll be, of course, out during the millennium. And during the new earth there will be those that will sit upon thrones, over five cities, over ten cities, and there will be many hundreds and thousands of people that have been won under their ministries, or have been led to God by them, and they will be kings over these people. And as the twenty-four kings, as to the elders, that sit around the Throne, then in the midst of them will be God, or Christ Jesus, the great King of Kings and Lord of Lords. And as I've said so many times, these kings will come in and out the city, as to those that are in the light of the city, as to those that they rule over, to bring the glory to God, to throw their crowns down at his feet, to give Him glory and to give Him praise, to being that wonderful praise and adoration from those who love Him, that walk at a distance in the light, to dwell not right in the brightness of the city, in that we come into this by measure. As to the eyes of your understanding being enlightened, you come into this by measure, And as to your measure so are you, dimensionally speaking, as in the heights of His glory, even as the Bible speaks of some never having known the depths of Satan, or even as the Bible speaks of it as it was with Judas, or those that shall receive the greater damnation when he said, And it would have been better had that man never been born; it would be so sever for him. So it is as we read to you here in the book of Revelation, as to the beginning. The Revelation of Jesus Christ which God gave unto him, to shew unto his servants things that must shortly come to pass; and he sent and signified it by his angel unto his servant John: who bear record of the word of God, and the testimony of Jesus Christ and of all the things that he saw. Blessed is he that readeth, and they that hear the words of this prophecy, and keep the those things which are written." Jesus said to Satan, It is written and He defeated him. Faith in the Word. "Those things which are written therein, for the time is at hand." Then He goes on to say over here, "And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen." Remember that now. "He hath made us kings and priests. Behold, he cometh with clouds; and ever eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty." It's very evident here that, as we say so often, the Lord isn't going to come as in a secret corner, or no need to let someone say he is in the secret chambers for as the lightning flashes from the east to the west, so shall the coming of the Son of Man be. And the Bible said all of the tribes of the earth shall mourn because of Him, the rich shall run and the wicked shall run to cry for the rocks and the mountains to fall on them, as to look for the caves and dens to hide from Him. And it is also said that every eye shall see Him. Every eye shall see Him, even they that pierced him who are dead and in the graves will be able to see from that world, even as Abraham from paradise looked down across the great gulf and saw the rich man on the other side. See? So every eye, even those that are in the grave shall see Him. Something caught my eye as I moved across there and kind of distorted my thoughts, because I saw Dobie setting up there and I thought, Well, who is that? You know, I'm used (Begin tape one, side two.) somebody sets there. But anyway, we're glad to have you setting there, Dobie. All right. Somebody say Hallelujah! Praise God!. The anointing is real sensitive and if you ever strike anything as to your natural senses it interferes with the heavenly, the heavenly voice. It says it's not you speaking but your Heavenly Father speaking from within you and they shall all be taught of God. All right. Now. In this we see that we are kings and priests. I only reread that as to a conformation to let you know that I wasn't way out in left field, as the world says when it comes to speaking of they that will be over ten cities, or whatever. If you'll notice now, reading in the book of Revelation once again. The fourth chapter. (Brother Pike reads chapters four and five.) All right now. I'm not going into the seals unless the Lord leads me to, because a few days ago we took the seals and went into the seals enough to point out to you that all of these were found within the rent veil of Calvary and you are here to witness that they were found there; to show that they were there. So then, I'm not going to do that, but I did read it as to a way of remembrance that you might stay with us in what little we do have to say this morning. Again it is said, kings and priests. And as I said, when the Revelation comes, as John said, the time is at hand. Anytime the Revelation comes then that means the end of the world. A lot of you perhaps that are not Bible scholars, or don't understand spiritual things, you could never get a hold of that. You would say, Well, the Revelation, Brother Pike, as to preaching is just another message and somebody has come with another message. That isn't right. See? It's not right at all. The Revelation is not another message. The Revelation is the end of the world. And God doesn't just give it to people just at anytime and to everybody. He gives it periodically at the right time, as to bring about the end of the world. The reason it was the end of the world at Calvary, as it was said, "and in the fullness of time, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law." In the fullness of time he sent forth this. And I wish we had time to go into this this morning, but I always feel cramped for time when I go to talk with you because I know that I am limited as to your human intelligence and your human endurance. And we only barely get to scratch the surface and cannot get steadfastly into the deep, wonderful mysteries of the hidden things of God. As I say so often, Paul took all night long to do that. But we do try to scratch the surface a little bit and show you a few things. Whereas,our heart is filled up with the hidden mysteries of God and overflowing like a great fountain of thousands and thousands of hidden revelation and mysteries that's already been revealed to us in our heart. Paul said, There was given unto me a thorn in the flesh because of my much revelation. But even with that he said, I doubtless shall come to visions and to revelations. And he said to the church, you pray, the church not the world, you pray. Though you be a Christian, though you've already come to me as a Christian, still you have need to pray that God will grant unto you the spirit of Revelation. So, Paul said, these things were made known unto me by revelation. So, I refer to it again, as John saying, The time is at hand and he said, That's because the revelation of Jesus Christ is here at Calvary. The revelation of Jesus Christ came to this extent that the veil was rent in twain. He made in himself two, or twain, as to say body and spirit, Lord and Christ. And the rending of the temple was, as to His Own body, in that the Bible said, And he made this way through the veil of His Own flesh. And in that He made within Himself two, then the veil could be rent in twain, as to separating the Lord from the Christ, or the Spirit from the body. And that was to reveal the interior as to this Christ on the inside. When we think of rending in twain we feel like that that is just like you_ When I was a boy we put a wedge in the log and split it wide open. Which that is true, but on the other hand when the Bible speaks of being rent, it's just like I'd say to you, cast not your pearls before swine lest they trample them under their feet and turn again and rent you. Or that is, he was rent. The veil was rent from the top to the bottom, which meant on the top as to His body in that the Bible says that they being natural minded, they applied this to the natural veil. Whereas, there is a natural veil, physical veil and a spiritual veil. And God always works in a trinitarian way as to a three in one, even as to the Godhead. And you never get the real revelation, as to the fullness of it unless you do that. And in your revelation you must always remember that it says the Jew first. So, it's the Jews, it's the Gentile and then the church. So when the veil was rent they thought it was the natural temple, whereas, it was the natural temple as to the natural people. But as to them that understood spiritual things, the Bible said, And these others understood not that it was His body that He spake of. Destroy this temple and in three days I'll raise it up. So when the veil was rent from the top to the bottom it meant that the thorns went into the top of the head and this was part of the rending. And as to the whip that cut into the back and plowed furrows in His back and as to the nails that went into his hand and into his feet. And the spear that went into His side and from the top to the bottom Jesus was rent until when He returns in the book of Revelation, as to Revelation 19, He is called the vesture dipped in blood. As I was telling somebody the other day, under the Old Testament, Moses would read, as to the Torah and then sprinkle the blood over the things of the ministry and all of these things that was used in the ministry, and would then say unto them, and this is the testament, as to the Old Testament, of course, that God hath enjoined unto you. And then when he came to the New Testament, and the veil was rent as to we say, the blood dipped vesture, then it is no more the sprinkling of blood. Though you see the Catholics sprinkle with baptism which represents this, and whatever, yet that is because they are still beyond the veil and have not penetrated the veil, as to come to the understanding, that is to say, on this side as to the revelation, that is to say, Christ being revealed to you as the Messiah. Even as the Jews have never even come to this. See? But with us it is not as to the sprinkling in baptism, but as the Greek word gives it as to the root of this that we have as to our King James rendering it is as to the baptismo, or to plunge under, which means in our day as to Calvary, we've come to the place to where we plunge under and we are not sprinkled with the blood but we are a blood dipped vesture. In that we have put on Christ, you that is baptized into Christ, as to the death, the burial, have put on Christ. And so now we are the body of the Lord Jesus Christ, members in particular by remission of sin as to the remission by the blood. There is no remission without the shedding of blood. And then we are baptized because our sins have been remitted by the blood, as for the remission. Or say being buried in the grave with Him, as to lose our identity in death and take His on in life, as to the resurrection when we come out of the water. If we've been buried with Him in death then we shall also live with Him in life. So I said that to say this, that now we are as the body of the Lord Jesus, even the blood dipped vesture in the sight of God, and as to this blood dipped vesture that is on the throne of mercy, as to the mercy seat, then it is there because God has to look through the blood. God being a spirit dwelling within His Son in the fullness, not by measure as it would be to the members, but in the fullness. And there looking through the blood of Jesus he beholds the whole world. So you can not get to God, the great eternal spirit, except through the Son. And the Father cannot get to you, except through the Son, as to say, the blood. So then, your inner life, as to the angelic being, is covered by the body of Jesus Christ in that your spirit is life, in that the life is within the blood. Or that is to say that the body is dead without the spirit which indicates that the spirit is the life and the life, as to the life in the stone, which is the seed, when the veil is rent, as to the little butter bean that you put, or the little pea that you put in the ground, when it opens up, even to the natural birth as to the opening of the Matrix as to the first born that is called holy, when this life pushes it's way up from the womb of Mother Earth. So then, we see that this is what the Lord is telling us, that Calvary, the veil is rent in twain and then the eternal life is coming forth as to that of a new harvest, crossing over the Jordan which is death, as to that of Joshua and Moses. On that side it is Jesus, as to the prophet like unto Moses, making an end of the law and as to this book that is sealed with seven seals, as we say, with the seven spirits of God on the back at Calvary when it's closed up, as to the scroll one, and to the scroll two and each one sealed, as to say it is finished, as to the fullness of time. And then from the four eighty-three, up to Calvary from that five hundred year period as to when the angel appeared unto Daniel, that there was still between Babylon and the coming of the Lord, as to this four hundred and eighty-three years that comes up to Calvary. Then all of a sudden, as to the seven years that separated from the four ninety that was determined upon Daniel's people, as to say the Jews. The seven years put over here in the end of the world as the time of Jacob's trouble and as the tribulation period. The four hundred and eighty-three coming as far as Calvary, and then in there is the rent veil, as between the seven and the four eighty-three, or in there is the heavenly episode, because it is no more an earthly episode. And from that time, because of the application of the blood, all people are now in heaven. Not the third heaven, not the first heaven, but as to the first heaven as to the natural, so was God with the Jews. And then beyond Calvary. And as to the second heaven on this side of Calvary, as to the coming of the Lord, so are they that are as to the Gentile people, going on within this grace, as to the blood on the seat of atonement. And they're continuing on, as in heaven, in the second heaven, because Satan, as to the blood life, as to the generation of vipers, as to the dragon, as to the beast image, as to the bastard child that came through the weakness of the woman, they are in the world today. And the Bible said, they that are under the law they are fallen from grace. But we are under grace, or interwoven with grace and we are not under the law. And as to us, the law has been folded up and laid away at Calvary. Or that is, when Jesus said it is finished it indicated that all was now fulfilled, for the Bible said it. And according to the Word of the Lord that the law and the prophets were until John and since that time the kingdom is here and it's not in heaven, it's now at hand and men press their way into the kingdom. And that from Calvary, this is the open door. See? The life of the Jew today is the spirit, as to the spiritual Jew. That is why, as to a natural thing that you can understand and interpret, all spiritual things being understood by the natural that you can look over into that land and see that America is their live today. Had it not been for America that you would probably be extinct, killed, destroyed and driven out, because they do not have a God. They are without a God at this time. Though they pray to God and they talk to God, and say all of these things to God, but they do not have a God for there is only one God. That is God, the Father, the great eternal spirit. And being without God they are desolate. Jesus said when He left there, He said, And your houses are left unto you desolate until ye shall say, Blessed is he that cometh in the name of the Lord. So then, they are in a desolation. And the Bible speaks of that thing being revealed to them at the end time and Daniel calls it the Abomination of Desolation. So then, it is that as to be poured out upon the desolate, Daniel said. Or that is, determined as to the end. So when we think of the mystery of God, and great is the mystery of God, and Paul said, I am a steward of the mysteries, in that the revelation was made know unto me. then when we think of this we realize that our spirit, our spirit, is now one with Christ's spirit and now our life is hid within Christ whom the heavens have received, as to being in the spirit with His Father; He and His Father being one. And this spirit now, as to your angelic inner man is one with Christ. Hid with Christ in God and that means that your life is now not in your blood. Your natural life is gone because of sin. You now have eternal life and Paul said, The life I now have I live, as to the inner man, by Christ that dwelleth within me. I'm dead. It's not me living but Christ, or that is to say, the body is dead because of sin. The Paul part was dead and buried and gone. That is to say, the veil is rent in twain as to the body separated from the spirit, and your body in the sight of God is dead because it is the bastard child. It is the image of iniquity and the prophecy of the four hundred and eighty-three years, or the four ninety was, Messiah shall come and make an end of sin, do away with iniquity as to become an image of iniquity, as we would say, by the revelation, to be nailed to the cross that God would smite the image of iniquity and being made in my image of iniquity as to my first birth, the first born then thus is smitten in the sight of God. The second born, which is the born again one comes forth, and that is of course as Christ became me in death and in sin, he allowed me to become Him in life, resurrection and righteousness, as being resurrected in another form. So I am in another form today. He came as my sin and He was made sin that I might be made the righteousness of God in Christ Jesus. So then, Paul said, My life is hid with Christ in God. And when He, my life, appears, because my life as to my spirit, was transferred from earth to heaven at the separation of the rending of the veil that when the body was laid away, as to fulfilling of every jot and tittle of the law, or was taken out from under the law, the body over which the law had constraint as unto death in that it was weak and could not perform those things, though the law be spiritual; yet we're carnal, sold unto sin. And this is buried in a watery grave as to with Jesus. And then the spirit went back to God who gave it at death to reckon ourselves to be dead indeed by the body of the Lord Jesus Christ as to seeing corruption, as to the world, to come out from the world to be ye a separate people. Or that is to say, your spirit taken out of the body taken into heaven that ye could never again be in the flesh. That's why I said the other day, The Bible said, And they that walk not after the flesh but after the spirit they have no condemnation. And I made this statement, I said, How can we walk after the flesh when we're dead as to the flesh and our spirit is separated from the flesh and it's gone back to God who gave it, and He said that it's in heaven with God and that we should rejoice forever more because we dwell in heaven. I say then, How can we sin, as to the body, or how can we go back to the corruptible things of the world. How can we then be as to a bonds child which is those that are in the carnal mind, as to death, those that are in the world subject to the five senses, or that which relates to the world, how can we then be a bonds child anymore when we're dead to that and the bastard child of the image of iniquity, as to that which came about by the deception of the beast in the Garden, it is gone. It is buried. It is dead, because of sin. It had to be killed. So then, that means my life, my spirit as to the angelic, went back to heaven. The old cocoon of the worm, as to Jacob, thy worm, I will help thee. And then as to the age ending, as to the worm when the cocoon breaks open and out goes the beautiful butterfly, as to Calvary, my spirit went away to be with God, as to that heavenly beauty of that butterfly which represents that covenant. I use to like to chase them when I was a little boy. But anyway, it is gone. You know, there's not too much about the butterfly anymore. I think maybe that has to do with the covenant. Seems like fewer and fewer people have the covenant anymore, as to the grace being lifted and the butterflies seem to be fewer and fewer. There used to be great big beautiful butterflies. But anyway, as to the metamorphosis, we see this as to the change from the cocoon as to the worm in that you are a worm when you are born into the world. Ye are the bastard child image and though you admire your face and paint your lips and all these kind of things and you flex the muscles and you jog and all these kind of things and you think a lot of yourself to self-esteem but God despises your image. He said, as to the morning, as to the Day Star dawning within you, as to the light, I'll despise your image in the morning, which means at the coming of the Lord when He breaks the heaven, if you have not killed that image by the body of the Lord Jesus, then as to that image God will not even be able to look upon it, because He cannot look upon iniquity. You're destroyed. You are automatically destroyed right then and there. See, because He cannot look upon you. You become one as with the darkness, forever out of the sight of God. And light and darkness hath no fellowship. God is the great wonderful light. In the approach He cannot get near that darkness because it would completely eradicate it, or the darkness cannot get near the light. So as I say so often, you cannot sin because you are born of God. Born of the light and the darkness cannot get to you, and he that is born of God, the evil one touches him not. You are without spot, without wrinkle, without blemish, as being chosen in God before the foundation of the world, as to be the elect of God in God's foreknowledge and being made manifest in this time as to the rent veil given to us in Christ before the world ever was by foreknowledge, elect by foreknowledge, and then brought to light at the rent veil at Calvary, even as Paul preached when he made the statement, said, And they that were ordained unto eternal life believed and they that were not, they did not believe. They were shut off in darkness. So, my life has been transferred from the old image to the new image. And it's hid with Christ in God, and when that image comes forth, in to say that I will be changed at the coming of the Lord into the image of God. We don't know what He looks like. The image was lost in the Garden in which we was made, as to our originality as Sons of God, Adam being called the Son of God, and this image will be brought back to light when the change comes, as to the Thessalonian change when the Lord, Himself appears, and we shall be His membership, as to that headship, and we will be like Him for we shall see Him as He is. Inwardly this with the spiritual Jew has already taken place, as to a spiritual Jew to spiritual headship as to Christ, and we are now waiting for the change of the body as to the coming of Jesus to the Jews, as to the nail prints, to a nation being born in one day as to the nail prints and as to the natural redemption of the body which cannot come until the Jew comes in, as to the sealing of the hundred and forty-four thousand, the change as to this body which is the translation of the church, as to the transfiguration then it cannot come until the hundred and forty-four thousand is sealed, because I remind you once again that as to adoption, it's by the law, and the body cannot be born again. It must be adopted into the kingdom. So then, you that are born again, as in the spirit, in the sight of God you, body and spirit, have been born again, as to what He sees. But the body must be changed and that by the law as when the Jews come in and they having no God because they represent the godless that are without, in that those that are without living in trespasses and sin they are dead while they live and so are the Jews dead. And that deadness as to being a scapegoat for us who are the church that the Gentile, themselves, might be as to one would having grace over them, as to the Shekinah illumination, even as Adam and Eve had in the Garden, so are they illuminated as to this second heaven to have medical aide and all this as to a sovereignty of doing what they want to and still get by with it, in that God doesn't just let the earth open up as in the Old Testament and swallow them up. Thus they think that God is with them and thus they think that God loves the wicked and so then, they feel that they are one with God through their religious activities and this grace that is given unto them, even though the devil, himself, lives within that human being and they in that grace as the second heaven which tells us that Revelation 12 is saying Satan is in heaven by having right to this dispensational grace which these people have turned into lasciviousness, or being in this temple of God which the brightness of light, as to the understanding of the revelation, shall destroy at the coming of the Almighty God. But in this, as to the mystery of the Lord Jesus, we see that the four eighty-three as to the seven there is an open door in heaven as to the church ages. And Peter has opened this door, as having the keys to the kingdom, and this door is recognized as Jesus is seen in the midst of the candlesticks as to the church age messengers at the end of the church age. And then the door is seen as being open in heaven, which was that door at Calvary, as to the law and the prophets until John, and since that time the kingdom has appeared, in that the door has been opened. That is to say, the rent veil as to the separation of the body and the spirit, having made in himself twain as to the true temple. And then as to the natural veil being rent in twain as to behind those cherub curtains was the Ark of the Covenant, the outer courts, the inner courts, as to the Holy Place, and then the innermost courts, as to the holies of holies where the Ark itself was. Not I don't mean to talk so fast and move so fast but if I don't I won't get that much said, as we say. You know, with hurrying as much as I can I'm not even going to be able to get half through with what we're trying to get over with just this little bit. So I have to do this. I know some of you wonder why that I do this, but I have to do this. You know, we really need to walk close to God. I'd love to take my time, because the Spirit talks slow and precise when you do that, and can detail many things, which I do this with the Brethren quite often, but in the church I can't do it. You know we've got this routine of ritualistics that we've got forty-five minutes and we've got to get to dinner because the cafe will be waiting on us. That is to say, the old serpent on his belly, and all his labor for his belly and for his mouth because he craves it of him. And when I get to preaching that throws a damper on things, whereas, you're holding on because you want to here what I started. And that's great. I'm glad you got far enough along to do that. All right. So then, we see then, God is trying to talk with us, but if God talks with us it has to be the spirit. Now, He will use my old rusty vocal organs, as to an oral expression. I really don't have the words. I'm inadequate. People are inadequate as to the purpose of expression for God. But, in that the measurements of man is the same as the measurement, that is to say in heaven as in earth. So then, that means that we have to use these means and measures of approach, and in doing that then God, He has given us an intelligence to understand by that means. All of the invisible things of God from the creation of the world are clearly understood by the things which do appear, even unto the eternal Godhead so that we are without excuse. So we see in this that the door was open because Peter said, Thou art the Christ, looking beyond the veil of flesh. And so that meant a door was open because then somebody had received revelation. And it was said there that flesh and blood as to an educational system has not revealed this unto thee, Peter, but My Father, that is to say the Spirit, which is in heaven. And upon this rock, I say again as to God being a rock, who is a rock but our God, God being a spirit, upon this revelation I build my church and the gates of hell shall not prevail against it. And as we've said before, they that are without are the gates of hell and the world is on the inside of them for God has set the world within their heart and every time they open their mouth that that comes out of their mouth is like the smoke from the bottomless pit and the devils and demons, as through expression of word to thought binds the people, as to evil communications corrupting good manners. That's why you see them sucking on a cigarette all the time. You know, they go around and one demon says to another, Keep cool. Keep cool. And of course, they're trying to keep cool as long as there is blood on the seat of atonement, long as they got grace. But nevertheless, it is a true fact that when they open their mouth, just as to the smoking, out of the pit comes the smoke. And as you see it over in Babylon, we spoke of this, that great Babylon is fallen, is fallen, and become the habitations of devils and Hussein over there we see this symbolic thing here at the end time in the east, right there near the Holy Land and we see where he said, I will make yo to pass through hell, Hussein said, and now he's lit all of those oil wells, as to about a hundred and ninety, I heard, out of about nine hundred and fifty. And put mines in the others in case they try to use those. And they just pour the oil on the water and he set it aflame to the extent that they say now that the smoke going up will go into India, cause problems, and the smoke that will come, or whatever they do to that that's on the surface of the water, there's a danger now that that will come all the way to America. As to those plagues being poured out in the air, see? everything has to be set for that. There has to be a forerunner of this that when this time comes that these plagues can be in the air. They say that the smoke is so great that they just hid the sun. And see? As to that that came out of the bottomless pit, this is what was said about it. That it rose up; it darken the sun, or as in the days of Jesus when He was seen as your iniquity when the illumination of God left, it was as dark as sackcloth of hair. The sun, the Day Star, refused to shine and then the wrath of God came. All right. So then, we see things are taking place in an enormous way, in great leaps and bounds and God has opened up (begin tape two, side one.) each period that we've gone through people have constantly went up into heaven. Their spirit have gone up into heaven by being translated into the marvelous kingdom of God while the body is killed by the wrath of God, laid aside as the blood dipped vesture, so then, we are the body of the Lord Jesus Christ. Him living and not us, and as we speak to you today the judgment beginning at the house of God, and we, not us but God, saying unto you, you must repent or perish. So in this we can see, as with this little bit that we're saying to you today of the revelation that things are taking place. And we are secure as the church. It is now being made known to us, as the manifold wisdom of God that we are, not going to be, but we are the children of God by new birth and that we have, as to the inner man, as to the spirit, being translated into the oneness of Christ's spirit. And as I say so often, as to a natural allegoric expression, the safe guard is within the garments, and though you may pour the ink on the garment, or whatever, it will not penetrate, because the safe guard keeps it without spot. And then, as to the material that they've come up with in our day, as to the old mothers ironing with the irons, a lot of times these garments don't have to be ironed because it indicates the new way of life, or the new body, as to say, Put ye on your beautiful garments Zion, or put ye on the Lord Jesus Christ and that these are none wrinkle garments without spot, wrinkle or blemish. All right. So then, we see that, as the Bible said, we that are born of God cannot sin because we are sealed by the Holy Spirit on the inside and darkness, as to evil, cannot penetrate that seal because darkness cannot fellowship light, or get near it. And because Jesus is the champion of champions and we are one with the champion then nothing can over throw us, for greater is He that is within us than He that is in the world, even Lucifer, the God of this world. So many hundreds of things we'd like to just say, but we can't say but just a few little things as we go along. So when we speak about the seals Jesus fulfilled every jot and tittle of the law and it passed away. And it is said, Not one jot nor tittle shall pass away until all be fulfilled. And so then, grace could not come until the law passed away. Jesus came and fulfilled every jot and tittle, which means the Jews are without God and they are still behind the veil of intellectual reasoning as is shown by the veil that was put over Moses face. For the Bible said in concerning that covenant, Paul said, which is now abolished. They could not steadfast look unto the end of that because of the veil. The Shekinah glory being interwoven with the face of Moses, as to Jesus or the prophet like unto. But they could not look upon it because they were afraid they would die. And so then, they said, You communicate with God and then we will communicate with you, because we know that no man can see God and live. And though He has allowed us to do this we're afraid if we're seeing Him again that we will all die. And so then, the veil came into view to represent the body of the Lord Jesus Christ, the envelopment, the tabernacle, or the temple in which God, Almighty, dwelt. Being made as to the form of iniquity, so then ye are as to your birth and yet Christ dwelling within you in that you have this heavenly treasure in your earthen vessels. Thus the Bible has said, God, who is a spirit as to the great understanding of light, Word or Spirit, it says that He dwelleth within the darkness. He veils Himself within the darkness. He came forth in the beginning and the Bible said there was darkness upon the face of the deep when the light came. It said, Let there be light, and the darkness was scattered away. And so there was light. And today, as to within the deep of your heart, as to the deep calling unto the deep at the water spout of God, the deep, mysterious, hidden God that you cannot see is calling, as the dove to it's mate, to that innermost deep of you, which you cannot see, which is your spirit, as the Father of spirits, or as that that Christ calls to it's mate, is calling. The deep calling unto the deep at the water spout of God, and you being the wells of salvation, you are the water spouts of God, in that out of you innermost being shall flow rivers of living water and you draw water out of the wells of salvation with joy. So then, this deep keeps calling unto the deep that this joy, abundance of life, may come in that Christ within you, He said, I come that you might have life and that more abundant, filled up and overflowing as the word is, because I'm the Prince of Life. The thief, as to Satan, comes but to rob and steal everything that ever emanated from God, as to your treasures, as to your wealth, as to your life, as to your hearth, as to your children and to take over your body that he might get out of the dry places, as to the terrorizing impacts of the darkness to live in you, to enjoy this dispensational grace that you have, as to the time that God uses for the developing of the church. And after that when they are translated, the world, the wrath of God will be upon them. So we see the veil as it is illustrated. When Moses starts out of Egypt, people starts out of Egypt, and the Bible said, as between the Egyptians and the Israelites there was darkness. The veil, as to intellectual death, that had fallen over Eve, that same thing remaining over the minds of the people, as until today. Which veil is done away with in Christ, or the darkness eradicated by the coming of the light, in that the ruler of darkness is eradicated with the brightness of the coming of God as he purges the temple by faith, that is to say, faith in Christ Jesus, or that back at Calvary of His righteousness, and this victory that over cometh the world, even our faith in what he has done for us. So then, we see that that darkness was between the Egyptians and between the Israelites. But before the Israelites, the Bible said, it was light. Plenty of light, see? And Calvary now stands between the body and the spirit, as to the Jew in representation of the body, which is dead, out of the presence of God, which we can't say much about this morning, but in the past we brought out quite a lot about this on tape, as to different times. So then, we find that in this, as from that Red Sea across that wilderness, across that Jordan, and then into Canaan and the new harvest. We were saying something to Sister Betty, I believe it was, just the other day about Jordan and the Red Sea. Kind of lightly spoken of these things, as to passed, as to some of the recordings that we have, which some of these things I've just learned, in the last day or two have gone over into Lebanon where we're on the Lebanon station there, the place where Solomon brought the cedars from to build the house of God. I thought it was really typical and the divine providence of God that they asked for our ministry there. And as of the man, what was his name? George? I can't remember his last name. He was with Pat Boone when we met over in Israel. And he owns a station there and through California, somehow, they asked for our ministry. Having put it on the station, some of these things that we're saying as to the unveiling, going into Israel to the Jews, they're getting these things. So, it's time for the eradication of the veil and it's time for the sealing of the hundred and forty-four thousand, even as we prophesied down the street of Dolorosa when we said the time is fulfilled. And as Jesus said, the time is at hand. Whereas, it's a little hard for us to understand some of these things but when we look at it to realize that four hundred and eighty-three years here, just slowing down here a little bit, seven years over here, that these coming together finishes the four hundred and ninety years, as determined upon Daniel's people, the Jews, to bring in everlasting righteousness. Not a backsliding and repentance from one service to another, or one revival to another, but an everlasting, no sinning salvation. And to eradicate the iniquity, as to the image of the child as in the Scriptures we're told that in iniquity did my mother conceive me. And we're made in the child's image, as to that which is rejected of God, called the bastard child. And when we look at this then we realize that God has, by Calvary, completely eradicated it. He has brought in everlasting righteousness. And the Bible says, as to the seven years that will come in, as to the four hundred and eighty-three being joined to that that then the Messiah, Himself, by the Jews, will be received and be crowned. So we're coming fast now to the beginning of the last week. We brought that out in calendar dates to show you that we're right there near that. And with this the Jews are coming back in. I try to press this upon you to where you can understand that if the four eighty-three is to Calvary and the seven years is in the end time, that when these fasten themselves back together it will be the end of the world. When Peter said the fullness of time has come, speaking unto you, Paul said, as unto spirituals hoping that you can understand these few little things that we say this morning. See? When the fullness of the time has come then God sent forth His Son, as Peter and Paul said, made of a woman, made under the law to redeem them that was under the law. And we try to bring out, once in a while, that as to the redemption of that which is under the law, as to the way it was done, to detail it. But as to coming to this, then that means that as that which was under the law hath passed away, God having found fault with that, now there is a new covenant with which he finds no fault, as to the perfection of His own Son, in whose image ye are. His spirit, as to the Son's spirit being sent forth from the Father within you crying, Abba Father. Thus are we sons, and though it doth not yet appear, as to our change as to what we will be like, yet at the coming of the Lord in Thessalonians we'll be changed into that image. But in the sight of God we are already that, because from four eighty-three to the seven there is no time element involved. We are not creatures of time; it is the church ages. And time in it's fullness came at Calvary and time was folded up and laid away and that was the end of the world. Peter said, Ye upon whom the ends of the world have come. And of course, when we think about it, we think if that's the end of the world, what is this going on all these many years. It's because you don't understand what the end of the world is, and you don't understand what the end of the world is. Somebody would say, Well, I'm in the world. Well, a good question to ask you if you're in the world is, where is the world when God says, I have set the world in you? What is the world doing in you if you are in the world? See? And how big is the world? Somebody says, as to the circumference thus and thus. If so, how did it get on the inside of you? See? You don't understand what the world is? That's what it is. Neither do you understand the kingdom, because somebody said, The kingdom of God? we're waiting for it. But Jesus said you don't understand the kingdom. The kingdom don't come by observation. Neither shall ye say, here or lo, here, for the kingdom doesn't come that way. He said the kingdom of God is within you. See, folks? Which in simplicity means one thing, the kingdom of God is a spirit. What spirit is the kingdom of God? It is Christ's spirit. And God's great spirit in it's fullness has filled Christ's spirit that nothing, nothing can come to God, believe God, be considerate of God, for there is not anything that is related to God except it be God in the fullness of Christ Jesus. And in the world is as to what? You spirit. Because you are born into the world, and Satan, as to your birth, as God filling Christ's spirit Satan has filled your spirit. And so then, your spirit is the world and you are full of the worldliness, in that he is ruler of the world, as to the darkness, the intellectual ignorance, as to the educational system and the governments and all these things or frolic, or sports and whatever, monetary values, and the lust and love of the flesh, the lust of the eye, the pride of life, and whereas, the Bible speaks of if the love of the world is in you the love of the Father is not there. So, Satan in your spirit, that's the world. See? And all these other things that you think of as the world is nothing more that lying vanities that will vanish away. That is what you think of. That is the world that you are in and that is what you see, and that is what you enjoy. But on the other hand you take a man that's insane, when His mind is all fuddled up and gone, and he thinks, rather than being what he is he is Abraham Lincoln, or George Washington, or somebody else, he is in his world and he is going around in his dignified way stepping around, acting just like this great dignitary, and he'll tell you in a minute about his authority and what he can do to you, and his world is this great world of Abraham Lincoln. Now, if that be so it's very obvious that as to a demon nature, or as to a demented way of life, as to comfort the feeble minded, but not the demon possessed. See? to differentiate right there so you don't get mixed up in what I'm saying. That means that if the spirit of Elijah could come to John the Baptist then he would do exactly like Elijah. He would go to the wilderness and spend his life in the wilderness, which he did. And if the spirit of Christ should come into me, then it would not be me living but Christ, because the nature, as to a child, as from the genes, as to the blood genetics of the Father from his loins, that's the nature. It brings about the conformity of image, for as an apple nature, a conformity to an apple image, as to an orange nature, a conformity to an orange image, as to an orange tree, as to an apple tree, as to a stalk of corn, as to a stalk of cotton, as to a man, as to a woman, as to whatever the nature is that is within the genes of that blood genetic, see? Within that gene is a nature. And if that nature be the nature of the father, thus is the image as to the first birth. If that nature be as it was, the divine conception of the Lord Jesus Christ, the image of the heavenly Father, thus you can say, and Jesus Christ is, as to the express, the complete likeness, as we would say, or the express or the given image of the Almighty God. See? That is to say, folks, there is as to you a conception. And this conception is by stimulation and by feeling of your human sensation, as to your nerves, as to male and female in their relation as to multiply and replenish the earth, which is pure, clean in the sight of God. The bed of the marriage undefiled in all, and only dirty in the minds of dirty folks. Now, the Bible said, to the defiled and unbelieving is there nothing clean, even their conscience is defiled. But to the pure all thing are clean, as to whatever God does. But Mary, in her conception was a conception of divinity, and that conception was of love, as to filial love, as to agape love, God's agape love, and she conceived, not as the woman does of our day as to the filial love, because filial love is lust. And it's inspiration and activation of to the illumination between companion, as to conception of stimulation and feeling. But the Bible said concerning Jesus, And He was not begotten of the flesh nor born of the will of men, which means desires to human beings. And Mary, with Mary there was no activation as to human illumination of that of human senses that related to the birth at all. There was nothing like that. The Holy Spirit, she conceived of the Holy Spirit as it by-passed all of that which pertains to a woman, as to touch her virginity, or whatever. She was perfectly the same afterwards, and this conception was of the love of God, divine love and the stimulation, as to from the spirit that you feel by which you also conceive, in that we conceive of the Holy Spirit in the vagina of our heart. Therefore, we conceive of this great, wonderful, Holy Spirit as to a conception, not as of to the blood of the dragon, as to that which is defiled by life. That is to say, the breath of live that has been taken into captivity, as to the spirit of Lucifer that is within you as to call the Red Dragon, or the blood life, or that which must be cast out of the temple, as to the body, and then the life, as like unto an embalmer when you go to be embalmed and they split the throat right here, the jugular vein. They pull out the blood. They place within you the fluids that preserve your body. They put you in your mansion, as to typically speaking, as they lay you in the coffin. Depending on what you can afford, and as somebody said one time, as to what you sent up to build. You know, you can only build with what you sent up. Thirty-fold, sixty-fold, hundred-fold. Or that is to say, some as to the rich, the elite, representing Son's of God, which has given themselves to the full measure to come the full reward, can afford the beautiful coffin. See? And somebody would say, Well, Brother Pike, I'm not hastening to get to my coffin. I know, but the thing is, see? that's because you don't understand. Because that is the place of rest. People that are Christians do not die. But folks that don't understand say, Well, they're just as dead as the other fellow that I saw in the casket when I looked at them, you know. But that's not it. It's because you don't understand spiritual things and you can be assured that they are not dead. They are not dead. Someone would say, Well, what is death. Death is the lake of fire. There is no death, as to the first. We've passed from death unto life, as to the lake of fire, which is very evident when we see the Lamb slain from the foundation of the world, given to Lazarus in God, as to this, as to looking forward to the Lamb that was to be manifested, brought to light at Calvary, and the names having already been written down in the Lamb's book of life, according to what Paul said. So then, it's very evident, And I'm going to close in just a few minutes. It's very evident that in this, when we see the rich man, where is he? He is dead, because the Lake of Fire, as to hell being cast into it, as to oneness at that time, and there he is, dead, and cannot get across the great gulf of life. And here Lazarus is in the bosom of Abraham, that is to say within the faith of Abraham that comes from believing as in the heart. So he is in the faith of Abraham, or the bosom of Abraham, at rest. He is in life. So then, you go to sleep. And Jesus spoke of this, as to spirit separating from the body. But if you die, he spoke of this as the spirit of God separating from your spirit. So there is nothing less than a world of difference. And to finish our little thought here so we can close. So then, we understand that God has done a great thing for you when he said that you had passed from death unto life and shall never come into condemnation. Having chosen you out of the flesh, hid you with Christ in God whom the heavens have received, thus you are dwelling in heaven. So, is the world dwelling in heaven, but they, by an illumination, as that which Adam and Eve was illuminated with, and can be enticed out from under that, or when the blood comes off of the seat of atonement then the blood life, as to Satan being in heaven, is cast out and the darkness is there, because there is no more illumination of light and that means no more heaven. And not even the doctors, not even the physicians, not even they will be able to perfect even a healing medicine. And the Bible said, In that day there will be no healing medicine, not even the relief of death shall come. They shall pray for death and shall not find any. And they shall gnaw their tongues for pain and their whole kingdom shall be filled with darkness as God pours out the wrath upon them that he poured out at Calvary in your behalf on Jesus, as to Jesus symbolic of the Antichrist. And it would take a while to go into that. All right. So then, Mary's divine conception was of that great, Holy One. And from thence was born that Holy Thing of Mary. And within you and I, as Paul said, I travailed until Christ be formed within you. We are within the inner man coming to this change, as to the transformation of mind, that this light may be made manifest in your outer man, as to the change, which is the birth of the child, as to the opening of the matrix, as to the separating of the spirit from the body, or as to the rending of the natural veil, that from that, as to the little seed comes forth life. And as we always say, as to the first of the church ages, the head broke through the matrix. It is now beyond the spheres, as we would say, typically speaking, and it is heaven. And with that the physician works from that and then the little body, as to the membership, comes forth as down through the church ages, and the church age messengers. And then at the end, as it was said, Physician, heal thy self, speaking of the minister. So through Christ I am travailing in this with you in your travail until I can bring forth Christ from within your heart, as to in to this image to be seen as the body of our Lord Jesus Christ, as members in particular. And when you say members in particular, as a man and the wife the members in particular are the children because each one is a measure. Though they are a sovereignty as to their own, yet they are a measure of the father. Now. Not of a drop of the mother's blood is in the child, which is very evident because that blood had to be spilt at Calvary and the blood of the father had to be there, which was the blood of the Lord Jesus Christ, as to that for that life to be protected in that all other life was defiled, as to man, and it had to be a new blood cell and divine conception that there was nothing instrumental as to human beings. And so then, we find that with this that we have passed from death unto life. We have eternal life. We now have royal blood and that we are a new creature. We are different all together and we are to live eternally and forever. Like the song as it says, and I have given you eternal life forever. All right. So we see these wonderful things of God and we could just go on and on and on, because I've been stimulated and I feel strong and stimulated and could just go on and go on and go on, but I've quietened down and just kind of eased along so your minds can conceive of this thing a little more toward the end because we say so many things fast at the beginning. See? But we love you. We want to help. We'd do anything that we can to for you. We're willing to travail, whether it be in night at prayer, whether it be fasting, whether it be in struggling to get passed your carnal mind and all the powers of evil. To get to you to help you we're will to do that; willing to do that if you're willing to work with us. Willing to do that. I remind you again as when we were in Florida working on the boat called the dove there, and while we were fasting and praying and in great travail, trying to work on the boat, trying to fast and pray and then preach at night, that during the night while I was praying, which is a custom with me, Jesus did that a lot of times; rising up a great while before morning and praying. And while I was praying, all of a sudden in the vision I went into a great travail just like a woman does. And of course, the woman is only symbolic of us who are the body of humanity, as to being female and the spirit being male. And we are the ones that receive the conception, as to bring for the birth. She's only a type, as to the natural. See? And there I was in a spiritual travail and all of a sudden I was giving birth. I was giving birth to a child that I understood was the man child and in this, it was being successful, but in the great travail I went off into this trance, because I was in travail as to trying to preach, work on the boat, fast and these kind of things. But anyway, I went off into this vision, into this trance, as this was occurring and this was happening. With this, I remind you again, I heard that song. A melody came to me and it was a melody, it was la la la, la, la la la. And I thought, What is this? And I just couldn't understand it. when I come out of the vision I couldn't understand it. I couldn't even remember the melody. And finally the Lord brought the melody to me. And we sing this song here sometimes, There's a new highway to glory, it's the road that Jesus trod. And with a halo we're traveling the highway of God. It's say, On a hillside so lonely knelt Jesus one day. Soul wounded and heart broken He knelt there to pray. By friends forsaken. The song writer says he was there all alone until He pressed through as to the travail to bring forth the Christ. And once He did that, as to His sweat becoming as great drops of blood, He had won the victory over Calvary and the__ Went to Calvary, not to travail at Calvary. His travail was now over, the child was now born. He had conquered the flesh. He just went there as to the opening of the matrix that the first born might be born, as to be holy before God who, as we say to you, though you are the second born and the elder serves the younger as in the natural, yet it is Christ who is really the first born, and to Him belongs, as to the foreknowledge of what we said about Jacob, the hand breach as to the little ribbon about the hand even before the birth of Esau. And as in Christ, this was given to us in Christ in that He is the first born of God, and the preeminence of all things and then are ye God's first born, as in what we're saying. All right. Do you love the Lord? Let's stand together because the water gets deeper and deeper and the more and more. The farther we go these things come the more. But, these few things here, I hope you can kind of consider it in your mind. I'd rather take a little bit and break it down, but there's no way to say hardly anything to you unless I do it this way, because like I said, when you preach the Word of God, as to the revelation, then you need hour to minister and people of our day don't have that kind of time for God. It is no wonder that the Bible speaks of few there be that find it. And though we think of the church, as these that's in Bethlehem this morning, and they that go to the churches with a regularity, as to frequent those places, we think that that is the translation of the church, that is the church with their little fragmental things that we bring. But folks, that's not it at all. The Bible said, And I will remember you when I come to make up my jewels, speaking of you being stones of fire, as to the diamond with the fire in it, in that the Bible says Satan, even Lucifer the prince of this world, walking up and down in the midst of the stones of fire, being in the second heaven. See? The real church, He said, and I will remember you that spake often of me. Which is like these little groups that get together and we speak to them in the Lord sometimes; you are never there. I struggle to try to bring out the things here in the house of God, because though the woman is suppose to ask her husband at home, as to whatever, she cannot understand or won't. The husband, sometimes he doesn't apply himself to even know hardly anything when she's hungry for the Word of God. And if he does he's selfish enough that he doesn't want to take time to sit down and talk to her. Which remind me of something the Lord keeps bringing to my mind this morning so I guess I'd better say it. It's like a man that's here with us. He's always repenting and saying he's sorry. Whereas, really he's not or he wouldn't do it over and over. Satan humbles himself to stay in the midst so that he can continue his corruption. But I say him last__ In that the carnal mind is enmity with God as corruption. I say him in a vision last night. And in this vision he was very wroth with his wife. Now, I know for sure, I've come up on this individual when he didn't know he was there. He's very soft spoken to me and to others when I'm around. But when I'm not around he's very arrogant and like a dragon in his wrath. But anyway, with his wife this was the case. And he had separated himself from me, as to momentarily and it was over in another department like, with quite a number of people, men and women, and there was some maybe as to celebrities, or as to those as to the elite. And over here talking to them I saw them dismiss and begin to leave and then he was there and his wife came up and he disdained his wife as to look upon her, and was very wroth with her. And she was trying to talk with him and more or less let him know that she was just feeling, like to the point of exposing him all to (Begin tape two, side two.) as to him not doing like he ought to do. He was very wroth with her. You know, I couldn't see her or him. They were kind of like over here behind the wall, but I could hear him and he was just raging in his talk to her. So much hostility. And I thought, you know, when I come out of the vision, that's the way that the Spirit of the Lord shows it, and thus it is. And that's the way some of you are. You know, you come in under this regime, or this ministry of Christ Jesus, we try to indoctrinate you with the wonderful Words of God, and the mind of God so freely expresses itself to you and then you take this and you go right back out into the world, and as the Bible says, the dog will return to it's vomit. You're talking about the same old vomit that you always used as before you came into the reflection of this beautiful grace, as to the light, as to God's mercy to give you a chance, even a chance for the church to come to repentance during this time of grace. And as He has said, Come out from among them and be a separate people. Touch not the unclean things and I will receive you, saith the Lord. And then with this, the old sow after she has been washed she goes back to her wallowing in the mire. No matter what you try to tell her she goes right back to her old carnal mind of lust and lasciviousness and the worldly desire. Whereas, if the love of the world is in you the love of the Father is not there, as to her old powder and her paint and these kind of things. And which, of course, reminds me of something that our David Paul said. He and Rick having jumped ship over in Louisiana, caught a ride and got into a car and while they were riding, as to going to wherever they had purposed in their heart that this man would take them, all of a sudden they were hugging and kissing as the driver and the one in the front with him went on. And David said he noticed the big earrings in the ears, great old big earrings, you know. I don't know why folks were them. Looks like you'd get caught on the door knob and tear the ear apart, but nevertheless, you know, in the Old Testament it was that if you come to the light and you don't want to be free, as from your bondage, and as we say a Christian, as to Calvary, then you're taken to the post and the awl was put through your ear and thus you were a servant forever. So I guess you have the rings in there to let us know your servitude. But anyway, this is the thing I'm saying. David said he was so alarmed because when the person turned he saw it was a man and there was a man hugging and kissing on a man. And with the big earrings, you know. And as it was said of another brother that is standing here that he and his companion went into a cafe. And I'll say this to kind of avoid embarrassment here. But, anyway, they set down and he ordered some coffee and thus he saw over here at another table a man that had long hair down to here, and the lips painted and the earrings and then numbers of others and he became aware that all around that they were there, as to this kind of people. And then some policemen came in and set down and they begin to eye them and he figure that they were the same from what he could tell. And finally one got bold enough to come over, but by that time he's already made his decision that coffee, or whatever, he was leaving. He rudely spoke to him and left, according to the report. All right. I said all of that to say this. We're living in an age of perversion and natural perversion has to do with spiritual perversion. There's nothing more dirty and filthy than natural perversion. That's about the dirtiest, filthiest thing that I know of. If there's anything worse than vomit that probably would be it. But anyway, this is the condition of the world. We had made the statement that this would come, even as Sodom and Gomorrah, when God burned Sodom and Gomorrah and that when they licensed this, as to a governmental thing, then God would burn the world. Whereas, they're beginning to do that. As a matter-of-fact, James Isaac brought to me yesterday a paper that said that the Presbyterian churches, presbyters means the aged ones, as to the Presbyterian. They have decided, though they have been a church that has been highly respected through the years they've decided now to let the Gays, I'll use that mild word. Which I think that's almost blaspheme against the word gay. It use to mean being happy. But anyway, as to the Gays they've decided they'll let them come in. No problem anymore. And they've decided they don't see any problem with them becoming ministers either. And then, as it was, I believe I read this little article as pertaining to the Catholic Church, whereas the Catholic's have decided that if you are born in a condition of perversion that there is no sin to it, you don't have to worry. But that if you take up this habit that you are very sinful and it should be punished. All right. So that's you leaders of today. That's your great leaders of today. Turned over to a reprobate mind to believe a lie and be damned, because they've got hundreds and millions of people that follow them. And though our compassion, as I said, goes out to the people that are in war, Iraqis or American, or whatever; yet Jesus doesn't look at it like that, but as to this age and to this people, Iraqis, Americans, whether they're Israelites, or whatever they might be as to the title, He said they are a sinful and adulterous generation, a bunch of, well, we'll say again, Gays. All right. So this is the condition of the world today and that's why there is a slaughter in Kuwait. It's like I told my companion when it first started. I said, It has been a place of money. People from all over the world has resorted to Kuwait, as to make money and to frolic and to live it up. And when God got tired of it, he let the Iraqis come in there and they have slaughtered them like animals. And then the Iraqis, which have done wrong also in taking the money from them, as to millions, maybe billions of dollars, and frolicked with them, God let Bush come in there and take care of that end of it. Or that is to say, as we said before, Mr Bush went into office, we understood that he would go into office, be elected president, and when he it looked bad for him, we prayed and God put him in office, and that he would be God's man. And when we made the statement that thought it looks like he's wishy-washy, as some people say he is, that he isn't that way at all. That he'll be like a little bulldog. That if he ever gets started he'll be like a little bulldog with a rag. Have you ever tried to get it out of a bulldog's mouth? He'll tear it all to pieces. And I said, And he will not stop, no matter what anybody says, until he gets his prey. Whereas, he recently made the statement, Gorbachev, Russia, whatever, I intend to do what I'm going to do. And as the pit bulldog, it's been known that you can beat them in the head with a plank, they've been beaten in the head with a piece of some kind of an instrument, or they have been hit with men's fist and they still ripped the child's throat, ripped the other dog up, or whatever. They could not get them a loose. And Mr. Bush is like that. In other words, he intends to get his man. If Hussein gets away over there, even momentarily, he'll never rest, Mr. Bush, until he gets him. He'll get him for sure. All right. That's his nature. I said all that to say this, folks. We're living in perilous times. It's a bad situation all over the world. You think that Iraqis are your enemies. Those people don't want to fight no more than anybody else. As it was said as to some of them are brute beast made to be taken and burned. But as one of them said when they questioned him, as to being and officer of Hussein and they said, him going to turkey, and they ask him, What do you think about Mr. Hussein? He said, I think Mr. Hussein needs a bullet through the head. Said, That's what I think. And said the people of Iraq don't want to fight. So there are good people throughout the world. And as I read to you, Out of every nation, kindred and tongue came forth the church and the rest of them that were not ordained unto eternal life, then of course, they'll be turned into the Lake Of Fire. All nations that forget God shall be destroyed, or turned into hell. Let's sing this song together, can we? Just a little chorus here. Can you sing with me? Give me another key, Frank. I'm still just a little bit hoarse so you'll have to work with me. Sister Dale, she used to roll over from one key to another, you know, until I could get it. Okay, let's just sing another one. Okay. Let's just sing this little chorus together. We sing this so often. (Sings Room At The Cross.) Brother Taylor is very familiar with these keys. (Continues singing and sings Come Into My Heart.) All right. The altars are open if you'd like to come to the altar. (Continues singing. Wouldn't you like to invite Christ Jesus into your heart? If you've never made the great commitment unto God, why don't you make it this morning? Today is the day of salvation. Now is the accepted time. The Bride says come; the Bridegroom says come. Let whosoever will come, partake of the waters of life freely. Take no thought for tomorrow for tomorrow shall take thought for the things of itself. You don't know whether the day will come or not. Paul said, I'm persuaded to believe that that which I've committed unto the Lord He shall keep against that great day. (Continues singing.) Let's sing this little chorus. Let's sing I Love Him. (Continues singing and sings Every Promise In The Book.) Sing that with me now. (Continues singing.) While we're singing, this would be a good day to make a dedication. The land troops have started in now to possess Kuwait and this would be a good day for us to claim the victory and praise God for the victory. Do you love the Lord? All right. Let's sing this little chorus. We'll try it the other way. It'll probably be a little high for me, but you can sing it anyway. They can sing it. I'm just a little hoarse. All right. Let's sing this one, Brother Taylor. We'll get in one that you're familiar with. That particular one we haven't__ I don't remember we've ever sung it here except maybe just a little chorus, or something, of it. But anyway, let's sing this song. Give me another key. (Sings Sheltered In The Arms Of God.) Can you sing that with me? (Continues singing.) Can you sing that with me? (Continues singing.) Sing that again. (Continues singing.) Let's sing this little chorus together and while we're singing this chorus the altars are open. If you'd love to come, then we would like for you to come. (Sings He Was Here All The Time.) Let's just everybody come to the altar this morning. Let's just all just come. (Continues singing.) This morning, asking all of you to come to the altar, I want you to search your hearts while you're standing here this morning. The Bible said examine yourselves and see if you be in the faith. You know, a lot of times if you examine yourself you don't have to go to a physician. You don't have to go to a physician because you examine yourself and there are a lot of remedies, as to home remedies that really help. Sometimes you can stop pneumonia by just preventing a little cold. But if you wait until the thing is severe then sometimes it takes an operation. It's like a minister, I was saying to somebody yesterday. We try to give you a mild sedative, or some kind of a little something that helps you when you have symptoms and problems that are pointing to severe conditions that will develop later and then when we can't get you to respond then we have to give you something a little stronger. And then when you don't respond after awhile then comes a time when our words become cutting, because we have to gently put you to sleep, and then we have to rend the veil. And we have to bring about the operation. As it is with cesareans as today, the reason for that is as to symbolics, as to Calvary, but the thing is we have to go in then with the knife, and sometimes we have to cut deep, or we have to give you the sad report that this thing that has taken you is terminal, or as I said to you on numerous occasions, that the priest of the Old Testament, they went into the little house when it was reported that there was a plague in the little house, and they examined the walls very thoroughly and when they examined the walls, as to the stain of that that was in the walls, or on the walls, they examined very thoroughly to see it it had penetrated the walls. Whereas, Peter uses the terms, that as long as I'm in this little tabernacle. And then when the priest could not find anything, as to depths, that would prove to be as to a plague or something that was detrimental they would take the hyssop, the chemical, or whatever they had of that day, and they would wash down the walls, and when they would wash down the walls, then afterwards everything had thus, as we say in our spiritual terminology, been sanctified, sanitized, as to them, and here in our day we find that the great priest, even the Holy Ghost, the Bible said, Aaron the Priest, thus signifying, when it comes into this little tabernacle, in that he's left the tabernacle of the Lord Jesus as the body, the vesture dipped in blood, setting at the right hand of the Father to return to officiate with in us, as to Moses caught away in the mountain. When the High Priest comes in he searches, he examines, or that is to say, when you come to be born again, as to this grace upon you, as to the blood on the Seat of Atonement, and the grace of God, as to the illumination upon you, even the just, as to the unjust. And when the High Priest comes around, when he enters into you he checks you out, because you, as the church, and they, as that are in the world, are all dead by the body of the Lord Jesus that He should see no one, though they be an adulterer, though they be a murderer, though they be a liar, though they be a cheat, He doesn't see any of them. The grace of God is on all of them, as being in the second heaven. And the priest goes in. He officiates. When he goes in, as to say, this person is now dead and buried in a watery grave. Now, as Jesus went into the heart of the earth to minister to those souls that were in prison, that waited in the long suffering of the days of Noah, to give them that garment of righteousness that had been purge, as to the hyssop, that is to say, having passed through the fire. Whereas, the Lord said if you come into the supper without this garment, as to that that's having been tried in the fire, you'll be bound hand and feet, as to your filthy garment and be cast into outer darkness. This is why we emphasize the baptism in the name of the Lord Jesus for remission of sin, as to being baptized into Christ you put on Christ even as your outer man has been baptized into Christ, as the spiritual, to put on Christ, as to the translation into the spirit. By one spirit you are baptized, as to the inner man. So then, when he examines the walls, as to your little tabernacle, then the application of the blood, and then the application, as to the washing of the water of regeneration, and then the application as to the Holy Ghost, as to the spirit. And then if the stain doesn't come off then that means that the little house is condemned and it has to be burned, destroyed. Which means that them that are without, one day the light of God is going to lift from them. The examination, as to grace, then will be over. And then the verdict will come. Terminal. The house must be burned. You're no more in the presence of God. You're no more in the heavenly places of God. You are no more dead, as to your sins, but now since the grace has been lifted we conclude, Paul said, that there shall be a resurrection both of the just and the unjust. Therefore, they will come to light, as to a resurrection of that of darkness and that that is terminal, as to that which is interior, as into the walls of the little tabernacle and God will burn it. Whereas, in you and I, in coming to life, as when Jesus comes He is our life. And when He, our life appears, and we come back to life as to having been buried with Him and being dead to the world and dead to sin, then when He comes back then we shall also appear in glory with Him, even as Moses and Elijah. Since He within us is that hope of glory, since He alone was made heir to that glory, since we are of this nature of Christ and of this washing and purging, as the High Priest on the inside, the verdict will then come. And we will be told that it is not terminal; it can be washed out. I have washed away your sins and though your sins be a scarlet; yet they shall be white as snow. And the little house shall be preserved forever, as changed into the glorified image of the body of Almighty God, because as to the examination, it is found to be the body of the Lamb, without spot and without blemish. Whereas, the other is found to be the body of Satan that is all spotted and dirty and contaminated, and the Holy Spirit will not dwell in a dirty house. Let's give the Lord a hand. So today, being that as to pass from death unto life, so are we as He is, so are we in Him. And God has made us to be in Him what He wanted us to be, as to Jesus. He made Jesus to pass through the fire for us and to be what He wanted us to be. And when He had gone through death, the grave, the fire then He accredited it to us and then that ended you and I, as to Calvary. Delivered for our offenses, raised again for out justification of which we have much to say. The Lord said you're dull of hearing, though I have much to say. Can we sing another chorus or two before we dismiss? Remember, the end of the world is Calvary and we know Him as the Messiah at Calvary. It was the end of the world for the Jews that went out of the presence of God and then comes the seven years, as to the four hundred and ninety. And when it comes it will be joined back to the four eighty-three. The gape will be closed up, the door to the Gentiles is thus closed. No more heavenly episode. Time will begin again, and as to that there won't be but seven years left of time. And the church ages as to this heavenly episode where no time is reckoned as to you that are not time creatures, it will be the closing of the bowels of the church and everyone being cut out. And the light that penetrated, as through the veil, will not shine again as the curtain is closed, as to the final drama of life, no light will penetrate. All will be in darkness, in that the church is the light of the world. So, let your light shine that men may see your good works, glorify your Father which is in heaven. So, ye that are creatures of heaven, even Gods that cannot die, members of the body of God in particular, I say to you, let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid. Everything's going to be all right, as we sing the song. And Calvary being in the end of the world, as the Messiah to us, in the middle of the week, as to the seven years, is the mighty Angel, because the Jews know Him as the mighty angel. They've never known Him as the Messiah. But as it comes back as to the seven to the four eighty-three then the mighty angle will then be recognized, as to the nail prints, as to the coming of the Lord at that time. And it will be that very same precise moment as to the middle of the week. And we could say something there, as to the middle of the week, concerning Jesus, but we'll pass on here to say this. That with that they will see the great angel, one foot on the land and one foot on the sea, hands raised to heaven, head within the rainbow swearing by Him that liveth forever and ever that time should be no more. That was the end of the world. But, folks, let's think of it like this as we sing, can we? (Sings Time Shall Be No More. Begin tape three, side one.) Raise your hands to heaven. Remember the body of the Lord Jesus, the mighty angel. And he lifted his hands to heaven, whose body ye are, members in particular. Whatever you say and believe in your heart thus it shall be. For the whole world is blind and shall not see when good cometh, but ye shall know when it's nigh even at the door. The fullness of time at Calvary. And He send forth his son and today ye are His members in particular, that Son. And that head will be joining you soon. As to the headship of the Christ it's present now. It's within you, as to the revelation of Christ. It's the opening as to the door, as to the light in the world, as to time dissipated. And so then the time, or veil, as to curtain, has been rent in twain and will only be restored for a short moment, and that's not to you, but it's to them that dwell on the earth, even the Jews. And with this the mystery of God shall be finished. Revelation 10 and 7, the sounding of the voice of the last angel, the trump of God, then the mysteries of God should be finished. In that is the flag we sent to Mr. Reagan that declared that the kingdoms of this world had become the kingdoms of God and of His Christ. He received it; responded so heartily while we were at Eden and Mr. Bust came forth as a child to rule with a rod of iron even from what we call the Star War, or a movie star. And as to the rod we spoke of, as to that that was given to Mr. Reagan, as from that movie called Moses and passed on to Mr. Bush, who indeed has ruled with a rod of iron. Whereas we said he had to do with the dragon, where it speaks of over throwing the dragon. And they published a piece in the paper immediately after that of him being on a horse with a spear over throwing the dragon, and indeed again I say he has over thrown communism to the extent that even in Lithuania they are wanting democracy and they're wanting to put Mr. Gorbachev out and it's just a thing of great triumph and victory, as to that as to the natural, as to having been Washington, the truth, and now as to the end of it, it is again the one that they say is so beloved that he's becoming the favorite of the people and yet ruling with a rod of iron. (Continues singing.) Remember, I told you according to the calendar dates it shows the end of the world is here. Every sign shows the end of the world. And remember, when I was praying I heard the voice the other day and the voice said, And the signs of the time are gone. They are gone. And so then, we've come down, as to the end, as to where the signs of the time is show by the fall of Babylon, as to Bagdad and over in that area and Mr. Hussein that declared he would make them pass through hell, as being that image of Satan as it was portrayed in a little drawing when they put Hussein on the head of Gorbachev and put him right in the mark and projected him right in the mark. And now the king of the North is ready to come, whereas the Bible said, And the king of the North shall come for the king of the South shall push at him. Then he'll be stirred up and he'll come. And the king of the North is ready to come. He's done so far what we understood he would do and Israel is now withdrawn to the extent they haven't retaliated, as we said at the first they wouldn't do there at the first part. And God is getting them under subjection, as to Mr. Bush, as to the over throwing of the dragon because that's a great thing in Israel, as to that little story. And they have a name named after this man just like they have as to David, their king. And that means that he's ready to seal the hundred and forty-four thousand as to, If the casting away of the Jews be the reconciling of the world what will the receiving of the Jews be but resurrection, as to life from the dead, or the change of the body to the church, the translation, which means everything is close at hand and everything is coming to pass the way that the Lord said it would come to pass. And we are they that upon the ends of the world has come. And we need to remember that, that though the end of the world was at Calvary you are just now being born into the world and where there's no knowledge of sin, sin is not imputed, and where you believe for healing you must look back to Calvary, as they did to the Brazen Serpent against the bites of those things that are likened unto the serpent, as to those demon spirits. And when you look back there you have to remember that you are just now being born into the world as to your generation, as to finish, as to God saying the multiplying and replenishing of the earth. So it's just freshly as today for you for Calvary. And your Calvary has come when you come to the knowledge of God. And if you refuse it there remaineth no more sacrifice for sin, but only the fearful looking forward to of the fiery indignation that shall devour the adversary. And as it appeared as in when Jesus came they, as the Jews, refused their Calvary. Really they didn't. God blinded them for a time that as of now with the last week coming in as to the middle of the week, He'll bring them right back to Calvary, as the great angel shows standing with one foot on the land and one on the sea. And then they'll have to except Calvary that it won't be with them as it would be as those that come to the knowledge and don't expect it, because they have to come to their Calvary. When they accept the Messiah all the others that have hypocritically professed Christianity, that is not born of His spirit, will be lost. For the Bible said, If you have not My spirit you are none of Mine. And though you be a believe, as to what you believe, the Bible said you do well for the devil believes, too. But nevertheless, you are numbered with the devil. But when you have His spirit, I say this so often as to the Old Testament, that a woman don't have an inheritance unless she has a conception as to a child. And if the child is to a still birth she still don't have an inheritance. But if the child, as to Paul saying I travailed until Christ be formed within you, comes forth, then Christ is your hope of that glory, as to that reward and that treasure, as having an inheritance. So do your diligence to keep your heart for from out of it comes forth the issues of life. And you be sure that you walk with the Lord and take care of that little Christ inside of you. Can we sing together? (Continues singing.) Let's sing this little chorus. The flag said, And the kingdoms of this world have become the kingdoms of our God and of His Christ, and when he received it they begin to burn Old Glory, as to finding fault with the first covenant. He brought about a new way, as to a new nation and a new people. Can you lift up your hands and close your eyes as we sing together? (Sings I Will Praise Him.) Once again, now. (Continues singing.) You know, I was just thinking this morning that I was going to call Rob up here in just a minute or two to dismiss us and I was thinking of Brother Rob, as to his first name and how Satan has taken from us and as to his last name, Coones, when we spoke of Brother Kuhn that worked with Brother Parnell that related back to Brother Branham, how that he come in the bus and those things as when he was at the Graves just out side of Monroe, as to Spring Street, as it is in Jeffersonville, of what it had to do with as to the resurrection and his name being that, as to Brother Branham having never joined anything except the Full Gospel Businessmen, as to relate to that where Jesus was buried with the rich. (Continues singing.) That is to say, as to California having to do with the West as to the woman, or the redemption of the body. And him coming in about this time, and Bob also in the Navy out there having to do with that same thing. And as to their's relating back to Virginia, as back to the virgin and back to the birth, as to the sonship, or again the body as to bringing in the Jews. A lot of things that we'd have to say as to detail that as to tell as to your life in the mind of Almighty God, but these things we're speaking of, as Rob comes this morning. We'd like for him to come and dismiss us if he will. Let's sing it again together, can we? (Continues singing.)
