Tape2-What Happens When The Holy Ghost Co

Now he said, without that token. The life of the word in you as an individual. You cannot have the life of him who stands here to take you through.

See? They put the church in order. They put the gifts in order. Now he said, I'll go there with you. And they walked out of junior chat. Sure.

No way, dude. Man alive, I've been sick to death. I've been down there and said, okay, Brother Bannon, I'm here. You're here. Let's go. I wouldn't have any trouble right now. I've seen gifts operate in my life absolutely right down the line. I wouldn't be crazy to go into any room and see if anything happened. It's not necessary, in my understanding, as far as I am concerned, unless I'm very definitely led there. Now, someone's very definitely led, that's great. Okay, let's go a little further here. Growth is essential. The Scripture sets it forth. No way is there not a growth. No way is there not a life. But the life is not the evidence. It is not the reason. If it's not the evidence, it is not the reason. Now life should be there. That's where New York got all messed up. Where's your pizza chop? We'll take our time. I'll cut just this any time if you let me cut it. Look. What is life? Coordinate property is spirit. Every life is spirit. Spirit's life, right? Okay, he said there's two lives. Yeah, two spirits. One over here and one over here. He said at the end time, they are razor blade.

He said so close. Let's put this one here in the negative over here. All right. He can imitate any gift.

There goes the gift of the Spirit. Now, why can't he impersonate or imitate? Brother Bannon used the word impersonate, so let me do that better. In other words, he can be the person anointed to carry any single gift. Half full ministry. Deacon and elder. Nine gifts of the Holy Spirit. And anything else in there. In Romans the 12th chapter, it talks about giving and forgiving and loving in certain things. So there's just multitudes, as Arrhenius said. He said there's multitudes. Now, he can get any one of those.

Now, he's got all the fruit. Christian science beats us to a draw. And they say Jesus was just a man. Well, he was just a man, but when God filled him, he was God. When God left him, he was a man again. Now, what is he today? Melchizedek. Tell you about that maybe another time. So, we got over here all the gifts, all the fruit, and all the soul. See, many more are the children of the widow.

All right.

Manifestation. Over here. Truth. Soul. Now, do

you follow me? And this one can outdo this one. So, right away, where would you go? Right over here. Fine. That's where the word went. That's the devil.

People still don't realize that Jesus is God. No, it wasn't.

Biggest flop the world's ever seen. Because he could have stood there and emptied every graveyard. He could have stood there and, you know, who cares about water and wine? Let's turn the desert into a blossom. Let's beat the world. Let's take the devil and choke him. And bring back the serpent, seize the natural, and make him a lovely beast again. Hallelujah, he's God.

Did he do it? Biggest flop there ever was. If you want to talk as a man. Because he came, as Brother Branham said, according to the scripture, but not how they interpreted the scripture. He said, I can only do what my father tells me. And it's my father in me doing it. And so, you look at here. And

over here, more. The

orcs said, you

tell. The

preacher could say, we walked in darkness nine years. I said, maybe he did, but I didn't. I got no doubt he did. a couple of chunks like that in 1964 before the prophet even died. Word plus my foot. If it's plus the length, then you go here. And he did three times. He said, Thus saith the Lord, and it flowed. How

were you people this morning? What do you want? Do you want this? Or do you want this?

This is life. This is life. Which life do you want? Which life have you got? You got the superabundant over here and the phony phony? Or you got the one that's lesser and of God just the same? And the real one? See, the one that's told by the word here.

Do you understand what I'm talking about this morning?

Now, where was I? I read over here in Ephesians. We're going to go to Ephesians. Fourth chapter. We're going to have growth. See? This is growth. This is growth. We're going to have what's right. Now, let's watch it and see this.

11 to 16.

I'm going to read a little before that because I have to because I've seen something here I never saw before the last week. It says here, verse 7, unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. Wherefore he saith, because there is given us a measure of grace according, a gift of grace rather, given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ. When he ascended upon high, he led captive in captive, and gave gifts unto men. Now I explain that to you. He that ascended, descended first, and he that descended is the one that went up, came back as the Holy Ghost. That he might fill all things. Now, you just think of that for one second. You might feel all things. Now, watch where Paul put it. He starts over here in chapter 1. And it says here, when this spirit comes into the church, then it's taken into rapture because all things are under his feet. Oh, God, I wish I had time to explain all this and show you where the Scripture dovetails and dovetails. This is only taking place now. It did not take place previously. It couldn't. It just started.

See? Because the world which are coming, the millennium, the whole thing was building to it. And now it's here.

See, there's a difference. Before all things under the feet and came to hear all things in the church, see, that was potential. But now at this hour, which is His body, the fullness of Him that filleth all things with all things. Now look it. He's telling you about the day of the bride where the whole word of God is fulfilled in her. And it says He came down at that time to do it. Now I always used to preach. That that's when he came at Pentecost and separated himself. That's not true. He came down to Paul in a pillar of fire. Set the church in order. Now he's come back again to do the same. Prove that by chronology of the two ages. Now, listen. And he gave apostles and prophets and so on, the fivefold ministry, to perfect the saints. The work of the ministry, edifying, building up the body of Christ. Notice, at what time shall we all come in unity of faith, in the knowledge of the Son of God, unto a perfect man, that's it, no more to come in, unto the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ. Everything poured into her. With God standing here as the capstone. See, that's why it's a million times greater than Pentecost. To what end?

All the gifts, all the fruit, all the soul, thoroughly, thoroughly, shut up.

Time to shut up and listen. There'll be no more children.

Toss to and fro. care about everyone in the dark, by the slight of men, even cunning trappers, whereby they lie and wait for deceit, but holding the truth and love. Loving the word of God. Loving the truth. And it is the love of the air that brings the Antichrist into power and sends all men to perdition. Now, where are you?

The same Holy Ghost that says, I'll separate by the false word at the end time and the true word at the end time. The judging God that was in that circle of light that came down, those seven mighty messengers that came with him. To sense the judging word at this very minute. To separate even at this hour. A bride from the non -bride. To call out a church. See? Holding the truth and love go up unto him. Not into him. Cross it out of your Bible. You're in him. And coming unto him.

But first he had to come unto you. Hold that stand at the door and knock.

Into all things. And all things are all things. You know when the all things really take place for you and me? When the wheel moves? Because when you and I get in the resurrection, when we get that brotherly God or neighbor, actually, if you're a part of this bride with the shout, you've got just as much to make. But you see, at this time, you've got to wait.

That's why New York can't say, the rest of you are only hoping to get what we've got. I'm hoping for what they've got. No, no, no, I don't even want it. I'm not interested in that scene.

Don't play footsie with me. From whom the whole body fitly joined together. In compact, there's every joint supply. It's all seven church ages. It's all over. According to the working in the measure of every part. Now, the measure in every part, brother, sister, was a measure. But at the end of the seventh church age, all in all, the entire measure comes into the church.

Unto the edifying itself, building itself up. And the last one was what? Capital love. Love of the truth.

No longer lukewarm. No longer wishy -washy. Say this, we live or die. Forget it. You say, you're cold. No, we ain't cold. We're just getting red hot. Hallelujah. 1 Corinthians 5, chapter 3 to 5.

Verily, being absent -bodied, praise the Spirit of the Judge already as though I were present concerning him that done this deed. Name the Lord Jesus Christ and gather together in my spirit with the power of the Lord Jesus Christ. Deliver such one to save the destruction of the Holy Spirit. Name the Savior in the name of the Lord Jesus. I'm going to tell you, that day of the Lord Jesus, that's

a tough one. You better be careful because you can have everything else destroyed. You just missed that one. All right. It tells you right there the church must be clean. Brother Brown said God sent a five -fold ministry to keep the church clean. What five -fold ministry at the end of time to keep the church clean? Word.

Then if they're denied what the word says they're denied, the church has got to stand with it.

Let's try and get the women to come under subjection.

I just love to see a preacher's wife that's one with the preacher.

God, I hate the one that isn't one with her husband.

I tell you something. You don't appreciate your pastor's wife. You just think you do.

You don't even know what goes on because she subdued her husband and loved him and just lets everything go with him. I'm going to tell you. If she was a type, and let me tell you flat, I'm not going to use the word. It sounds like witchy, but you know what they call women today.

You'd have divorce all over this church.

You'd have families breaking up. That spirit would be right among you. Now, take a bow, Audrey. You've got to come with me. My wife the same way. I have seen where a preacher's wife's spirit got right into my home. I'm killing a deader than a grown man. Not with me. You won't talk to me.

That's why the preacher's here. Keep it one with the word.

Many times people don't understand me.

I'm loyal to the pastors because without the pastors I wouldn't have a place to preach. Sure, I would. You think I stand in the street corner? Come on. What, teach a bunch of foghorns out there? I'm not here to preach to jackrabbits. I'm here to preach to sheep.

Sheep had bad enough time but jackrabbits didn't want it.

All right. This guy Paul said, here, hey, he said, you guys got all the gifts but you're so messed up on what it's all about. He said, you got adultery and you're sanctioned.

Doesn't the church sanction adultery right today? In the form of multiple marriages? Everything else? Complete mess. Brother Bannon cried out against it. Philippians 1 and 6.

The church is supposed to keep clean. We've got no problem with the church growing. No problem with these things. We're for them. But you understand you've got to keep it in the place where God put it in the place. And don't argue all around the hill. Just say this is it. Being called this very thing that he would have begun a good work in you. will perform the day of the Lord Jesus Christ. Now that lets you know there's going to be problems in the church. Problems with you. There's going to be trouble. There's going to be ups. There's going to be downs. But as the Bible said, a righteous man falls seven times and the Lord picks him up. Seven times completion. He's down to stay down. No, he ain't down to stay down. I'm going to get him up again. See? All right. The church will be kept clean. There must be a growth. All these things must be there. Now, let us ponder our union with Christ. To begin, remember John 5 and 18.

Now, let's take a look at this thing, because here's where it starts in John 5. Therefore the Jews thought to kill him, because he had not only broken the Sabbath, but also that God was his Father, making him equal to God. Now, the Dr. Weiss translation expands it by saying this. Jesus said, God is my Father in a way that he is nobody else's Father, which was right. All men that killed him. That started the fight right there. They said, we're going to kill him. Now, that doesn't finish the fight. Let's go to John 10 and 30. I read it to you. I and my father won. Then the Jews took up stones to stone him again. They said, hey, in no way has he got a special claim. In no way is he unique. In no way has he won with the father. Now, Brother Branham categorically said, that is the time that they pulled away from him. See? Now, Keep reading. Jesus said, Many good works have I showed you of my Father. Which of these works do you stone me for? And they said, For good work we do not stone you. Keep raising the dead. Bring on the wine made from water. Bring on the bread multiplied. Bring on the fishes. Hallelujah. We like it. We'll take all that. Because you being a man, make yourself God. Then Jesus said, It is not written in your law. I said, Ye are gods. Be called then gods in whom the word of God came. That's the prophets. The scripture cannot be broken. He was that prophet. Say, The Father whom... Whom the Father sanctified and sent the world without blasphemies because I said I am the Son of God. If I do not worship my Father, believe me not, and so on. Now, Brother Branham said, that's the time the people pulled away from Jesus. The Pharisees, the whole bunch. He also said, when the day came that the bride said, I and my Father are one, the shuck will pull away the same as it pulled away then. Now do you see why I'm preaching this?

Because if you've got all of this here, And you are not settled that you and the Father are one. I don't care what it means. In the sense that I can explain it all the way down the line. I've tried to show you. But if you don't come to the mechanic of realization that you and the Father are one, I don't care how you feel. I don't care how negative. I don't care what you can't perform. That's not it. You've got to start here.

You've got to start here. That's where it all starts because that's where it started there. Now, if you're going to be like the Master, you better get with it. See? Now, the same prophet said that in the end time is when the shark is going to pull away from the sea. Now, we're going to go to Matthew 10.

In Matthew 10, verses 32 to 33, it says, Wherefore, no, whosoever therefore shall confess me before men, him will I confess also before my Father in heaven. But whosoever shall deny me before men, him also will I deny before my Father in heaven. You'll notice the word therefore draws a conclusion. Now, where does that conclusion start? What was said to make Jesus say, therefore, and to throw it on to you, that if you don't make a confession before men, you'll be saddened and neglected. All right. Maybe verse 16. Behold, I send you forth a sheep in the midst of wolves. Be therefore wise to serve as harmless as dove. If you get all this stuff here, you'll think you own the world. Beware of men that live up to counsel. Scourge in synagogues. Brought before governors. Kings for my sake. A testimony against them and the Gentiles. But when they deliver you up, take no thought of what you'll speak. They'll be giving you in that same hour what you'll speak. For it is not you that speak, but the Spirit of your Father which speaketh in you. And I'll tell you one thing. He'll speak according to the law of the prophets, which is the Word. But the Father's not in you. Brother to brother death. Father to child. Children raised up against the parents. Call them to a death. You'll be hated of all men for my name's sake. Now, if you can pin that on the Jews, there's something funny somewhere. Because they can't stand the name themselves.

He's in Jerusalem, the same thing he says. Now, when they're persecuting the city, feed another part. Verily I say unto you, you shall not have gone to the cities where the Son of Man be come. Oh, the Son of Man's already come. According to Luke 17. That's not true. He's really talking concerning the people that believe on him. He's talking to the fathers who turn the hearts of the children to God. Those fathers that had the word. I explain that sometime when I get time. Alright, listen. Now here it is. The disciple is not above his master nor the servant above his Lord. It is enough for the disciple that he be as his master and the servant as his Lord. Now he tells you that.

Now, he doesn't go ahead and say, now, there is a slight resemblance between you and me. And I am giving you this great credit like I'm writing a little thing about you and I'm going to put a little thing in there to make you look good. He doesn't say that. He equates the individual to himself. What I am, you are. I'll prove it after a bit. Just hold it. Now, listen. If they have called the master of Beelzebub, how much more shall they call them these households?

Fear not them, therefore there is nothing covered. that shall not be revealed, and hither shall not be known. Now that this in plain English says there is nothing that hasn't been covered, except it be covered in order to be revealed. In other words, he's telling you, I'm going to take the lid off of this at some time. And I'm going to let you know what it's all about. Now, what I tell you in darkness, speak in the light. What you hear in the air, preach in the house, that's revelation. Fear not them that kill the body, not even to kill the soul, but fear them that are able to destroy both body and soul in hell. That's God. Not to spare soul for fighting. One that shall not fall to the ground, that's your father knowing it. But the very hairs had a number. Fear not, therefore, you are more valued than many fares. Whosoever, therefore, because of what is being said here, shall confess me before men. Now, let me give you the actual rendition of what it really says. It doesn't say that. Here's what it says. Now, it says you're not above the master. So, you're expected to live in that realm. If they call him Beelzebub for a certain thing, they're going to call you that too for the same thing. If they get me for it, they're going to get you for it. Now listen to the therefore. Therefore, everyone who is of such a character that he will confess me before men in the realization of and testimony of his oneness with me, I will also confess him before my Father who is in heaven in the realization and testimony of my oneness with him. That's exactly what it says.

Now then, if you've been made one with him and don't confess it, and you get over here and here, And say, well, hallelujah. This which makes me one. I've got my socks on. All right. It's just here that makes me one. The Holy Spirit. Well, I have all the gifts. And I can have all the proof. And I can have all the soul. Because hallelujah. See? I see.

You see, he gave me what it takes to make it. Yeah.

Well, you better get down to where it is. There it says, Beelzebub. Okay. If he's Beelzebub, I'm going to give him. If he's rotten.

That's

the trouble. Now he says at the end time, when all this is going on, that's where the confession lies. And Brother Branham said when that happens, it's when he comes down. Well,

I don't think I can see it. Brother

Branham said that John 14 and 20 takes place three times.

That's what we're looking at.

That day, when I'm the father, you and me and I and you, he said that took place at Pentecost. It takes place at this hour and at the white throne judgment.

I don't know whether God ordained a conversation with my wife this morning or not. I don't know that he ordained two millions. He gaffed a lot. And here's the years ago with the little people. And they had a... He was kind of crippled and she was very sweet. And they had a good love affair going on in their 50s or 60s. They were 50s, I guess. And they'd sit there and yak, yak, yak all day long. And I would never tell my wife, but I'd say to myself, when my wife and I, if we should live that long, get that old, I know we'll have nothing to say to each other. You've got to be kidding me. Oh, I'm going blah, blah, blah. She's going blah, blah, blah. I like it that way.

Yeah, it's gotten better all the time. All right. At that day, you know, I'm the father, you mean I am. Okay, he said white throne.

Okay, here's what the bride's going to do. The bride's going to stand there in the throne. Now,

everybody else is going to stand before that throne. You're going to see the people that had ten times more fruit than you. 20 times more manifestation. 100 times more soul. Etc. Etc. Etc. And

you're going to have to stand there and judge. How

are you going to do it? Well, I was a great lawyer in my day. And I was so meritorious that people elected me. So they're wrong qualified.

Well, the thing was, I had a little better proof. It was better than the standards. You see, it wasn't that much. So I got down. And I want to do something. And

my father.

Sometimes take time eating your wife can help you out. God could have given man something better than a wife outside the Holy Ghost. He's done it. I didn't think a wife comes second in the Holy Ghost. I think sometimes there's a lot of times you even feel better in the Holy Ghost because you get treated rough by God sometimes, you know, because you act up wrong. I've had my head beat into me. A wife never has done that. She's always been very good. In fact, I was paying the compliment the other day. One fellow, he didn't want to admit it, but he said, I think your wife loves you better than she loves God. I said, well, Well, I kind of hope not. Maybe a different way. I thought it was kind of nice in its head. All right, listen. White throne judgment. Now, today, at his appearing, the bride must be of such character that she will say, I am one with the Father.

See? Now, one with the Father. Now, that's what the Bible said, character. Brother Branham used the right word. See? All right. 1 John 3 and 2. Beloved, now are you sons of God? And never again is this what you shall be, nor he shall appear. We'll be like him. If you're going to be like him, you've got to say what he said. I and my father are one. 1 Corinthians 3 and 12. I'm sorry, 13 and 12. Now he sees through glass dark and then face to face known part. But I shall know him as I am known. I know him like a book. Your wife can say I know my husband like a book. Husband say I know my wife like a book. I can say I know God like a book.

Face to face. Now listen. 2 Corinthians 3. We're moving up now. Because this is getting where the meat is. This is the truth. I didn't write it. He did. But we all open face. Verse 18. Beholding as in the grasp of glory of the Lord are changed into the same image from glory to glory. The same image. Now listen. The same image. What was that image? Get over here now to Hebrews chapter 1, 2 and 3. Have the last face, woman, and body, son, whom you appointed heir of all things. by whom he made the world, who being the brightness of God's glory, the expressed image of God's person, upholding all things by the word of God's power, when he purged of our sins, sat down, and if we're made in his image, we're in God's image. And my father once, where was your seed? Listen, she recognizes who she is. She's over here in Ephesians, the fifth chapter. In a peculiar identity, we are each and every one in our place of God, and in the same measure, the same manner, the same everything, as to pertain to that one part. Nobody is more than another. Not when you get set in the church for an office, that's a different thing at all. But look at it, if you're born, you're no more born than somebody else. Alright, I in them, no, the glory which thou giveth me, I've given them, that they may be one even as thou art one, we are one. I in them, and thou in me, that they may be made perfect in one, that the world may know that thou hast sent me, and hast loved them as thou hast loved me. Father, I will that they also be, that they also may be with me where I am. You know something? It's already happened. It's already here with us.

Therefore, the oneness is complete. The bride may be not all in, maybe she is all in. If she's all in, she's being child -trained. That's all there is there. Now that thou hast given me, thou hast loved me for the foundation of all the righteous, Father, the world has not known me, but I have known thee. And these have known that thou hast sent me.

Do we know that he's returned to come back? I have returned and then thy name. And we'll declare. Has the name been declared? The love of which thou hast loved them may be in them and I in them. Now it tells you right there it starts with the name. It starts, pardon me, first of all it starts with the realization of that union and then the name. Because you see the groom gives the name to the bride. I don't have time to go to that. But that's one of the richest things that ever came to me. And I'm not even telling you what it is yet. Now, in verse 26. It says, I have declared thy name and will declare. Let's go to Hebrews 12 chapter and find out what he says there. See, people don't keep up modern. They've gone way back in the boondock. It says, verse 25, He refused not him that speaketh. He refused him that spoke on earth. Much more shall we not escape return from him that speaketh in heaven. That's a mean tribulation under Titus. They got it. whose voice then shook the earth but now he promised the same yet once more I shake the earth not only the earth but heaven also and this word yet once more signifies removing of those things that are shaken as the things that are made that those things that cannot be shaken may remain therefore we receive in the kingdom tells you when the speaking takes place is right on the verge of the millennium and the seventh seal ushers in the millennium therefore under the seventh seal revelation 10 1 to 7 comes to pass and then God speaks to the prophet now Wherefore we may be served God exceptionally with reverence and godly fear. And the first reverence and godly fear is to start what he said. If you're baptized with the Holy Ghost, I and my father are one.

I and my brethren are one. Right down the line. You begin understanding. Now, the prophet did not take us back to Pentecost. He said we're a million miles beyond it. Now, this lines with John 14, 21 to 26. Wherein we read to you those very things over here, already, or some of them, He that has my commandments, keep them. He that loveth me, he that loveth me shall love him my Father, and I will love him and manifest myself to him. Now, the commandment he gave first there was to be baptized the Holy Ghost. Judas said, not a spirit. Lord, how is it thou manifestest something, not the world? And Judas said, O man, love me, you'll keep my words, my Father, and love him, and we'll commend to him and make God go with him. And I'll tell you right there, it says that love toward God which God placed in your heart will bring on the Holy Spirit. He that loveth me, not keep him, not my saint, doesn't care for my words. The words you hear is not mine. But the Father said to him, These things I spoke unto thee, but the Holy Ghost, which is the Holy Ghost, whom the Father has sent in my name, will teach you all things, because of what I have said unto you. Now, when did he come down and put that in the book for him? It was through the prophets. The fire came down. God gave the word to the Apostle Paul. Now, this line with Ephesians, the first chapter that Paul says happens at the end time. The Holy Spirit, pardon me, coming into the church.

And when he does, he comes with that great teaching ministry. And the teaching ministry will reveal exactly who he is and what key is he in.

So we're getting there. Coming more and more into view. Now this lines of course with Revelation 3 and 20. I'm standing at the door knocking. I want to have a sup with people. And Revelation 10 and 1 where the great pillar of fire comes down to the anointed prophet of Revelation 10 and 7. This takes us right back again to Ephesians the 5th chapter that we talked about in the bride there. 29 to 30. But no man yet ever hated his own flesh but nourished and cherished it. Even as the Lord, the church, what's he doing there? He is telling the fact of how he loves and nourishes that church. Why? Because he is the husband. For we are members of his body and of his flesh and of his bones. There is a literal guarantee that God himself is nourishing, that he is the life of that bride. See? And therefore, being the life, it cannot possibly go down the drain. Now, you'll notice that Jesus is the bride. I mean, he is the groom. Why? Because he is the kinsman redeemer. And remember, the redeemer was a kinsman. He was related. See, like Adam. He came out of Adam. He married her. So the bride was taken out of the side of Jesus Christ, taken out of the Logoth. So therefore, she was Logoth just like him. See? And therefore, to marry him, she must have the same flesh that he had. And what is the flesh of the Holy Spirit today? He comes forth with the bride. The flesh is the word of God. So therefore, the bride must have the same flesh which is the word of God. Because, you see, he is that word. And Brother Branham said, when you receive the word of God, you become the word of God in your flesh. Okay, 1 John. That's what to look at and understand what Brother Branham said about this very scripture here. 1 John, the fourth chapter. Now, you're way ahead of me because you know what it says already. Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirit, whether they are of God, because many false spirits are gone in the world. Everybody knows the spirit of God. Every spirit that confesses that Jesus Christ is come in the precious of God. Now, he put that right in this present hour. And he was not talking about William Brannan being God manifest in flesh, as though that were himself and nobody else. But it was concerning the bride. And every spirit that confesses not that Jesus is come in the flesh is not of God. I and my Father are one could only be said when he was in the flesh. Why? Because before he was in the flesh, he was just one with one.

But now when he came into that body, he became one. And this is the hour that the Holy Spirit is coming more and more into the church. until he is that happy bridegroom with the bride. See? Who has received the Word and become the Word of God in her flesh. So therefore, the Word today is becoming flesh. That's what Brother Brown said over here in the book of Revelation in the last age concerning the Laodicean minister, the Spirit of God said, These things set the aim and the figure, the beginning and the creation of God. God creating Himself in the form of human flesh. And now it's the time to manifest. You see? We are to that period. In 1956, In November, Brother Brandon preached the uniting time message of the mystery of the union of the bride. Today, chapters 14 and 17 are coming to pass, the book of John. The bride is coming together according to 2 Thessalonians, the second chapter, and in verse 1. Now we beseech you, brethren, by the coming, that the presence of the Lord Jesus Christ, even our gathering together unto him. And he is talking to the living.

He is not with the dead. He is with the living to raise the dead. They without us cannot be made perfect. We've got to come to that place. And that place is the union. And how can death stand before her? Death must be stopped in its track. Listen. This is also 1 Thessalonians 4, 16. The Lord himself descended from heaven with a shout. It is also over here in Matthew 25 and 6. Behold the bridegroom come out to meet him. For as the prophet said, Christ has appeared in order for the bride to know her and make the redeemed world. Christ the Word, that magnet, is drawing all that which is magnetized up to him for the rapture and the wedding supper at this very hour. Today we are uniting more and more with the one who is the Word, who is the maid of the bride, even Jesus Christ the righteous. Remember, Brother Grano said, the wedding garment of the bride is the Holy Spirit. And the man is the covering to the husband. He is the head. He stands here to take over for her. Now, in rounding out this thought, remember, Back in Matthew 10, which we said he's of such a character that he will recognize he's one with God and confess it. God will do the same thing before him. You know, in heaven before the holy angel saying, this is my beloved, this is my bride. See? All right. This is the same as Matthew 16 where Jesus said, who do men say that I, the son of man, am? And he said, thou art this and that and that. But he said, who do you say? He said, thou art the Christ. And when you can say we are one, but God said, God answers that. I say you're Peter, see? All right. We are now in union. In union with the Lord Jesus Christ. Over here in the book of Matthew. I'm sorry. Romans. The heaven and 36. For of him and through him and unto him are all things to whom be glory forever. How is the bride going to get past that? She can say, what a hell. Look at all the fools I'm on. Look at all the fools. Look at all this. Look at all that. I want to tell you, brother and sister, amazing grace to me is the fact that God can stand right here and I can stand here too. That signifies the best. It shows what the blood of Jesus Christ can do. That signifies the power of the death and resurrection of Jesus Christ. For God stands back. That's what I call him justified, I write this. It's not where God can stand back and say to your mind, I'm married to that. I say, I'm married to the heart. He said, just spread your legs out there and sit in the road with every wave and every stump under high heaven. You ain't there if you turn to me. But I want to tell you at this end time, Brother, Madam Category said, a woman can be forgiven for adultery, but she cannot be justified. She'll come up with a second resurrection, but never the first, unless you stand in him as never having done it. Because you were in him as sheep that had gone astray and the righteous one stands there. That's where the Holy Spirit came. This is what happened is happening. Today we are one. The more of the same one to be magnified for manifested in glory. So now we have a tremendous basic truth at the end time. He is here, the head or the husband, the bride. God uniting them, even as the Father was in the Son, even God is now to this point making ready a bride. Absolutely. And that bride, started to get ready with the opening of the seals when the book could not close. And at that time when the seals opened, Paul said to every he which is righteous is right to steal. And he just built his 50 seals. And it says those that stand right here are going to go to the tree of life. And God just says to the rest of the whoremongers and dogs outside the city, Brother, sister, you're at the end time. Listen, let's get this right. In this hour in which we live, I don't maybe take the consolation I should take. But I want to tell you, I've got great consolation at least in as far as I can get consolation at this point. And that we are heading into the place of perfect righteousness and perfect hellishness. And since there are at least four billion people and maybe hardly ten thousand bride, then the multiplicity of anguish and destruction, disorder, sin, corruption, and you name it, will be millions of times greater in manifestation than what we see. That doesn't matter. The Word of God still stands free. We're going to be swayed here and swayed there. That's why at the end of time you take this message. And it doesn't matter if it's this seducer and that seducer and that fellow and that fellow. You just stand with the Word of God. Stand with our Father in one. Yes, sir. I'm the Father in one. What's he going to do? He's looking for that bride he can take back. And then when he gets that bride up there in the presence of Jesus, who is the Son of Man, who is that Son of David. I'm not going to call him Son of God because that's Holy Spirit. But when you see that one in whom God himself incarnated himself, at that time when he gets there, he will actually... slipped into the body of Jesus, presenting to himself the pride of those spotless men. And they're one. Never get by, see. You get to the resurrection, brothers and sisters. It's already transpired, brothers and sisters. The proof is here because we had a prophet at the end time. The Son of Man has been manifested.

It's uniting time. Now listen, I hope you caught what I was preaching. Alpha. Alpha.

It started back in the first church age, Alpha. God united. God coming down himself and setting the church in order. And for six, seven, rather, solid church ages, he had been bringing those lost sheep back to himself in an indistinguishable union. See? Now, in that first age, they had that which made people know that they were one and one with God. Let me tell you this. This age is where he belonged, the first age. And there will come a time, though the flag may be here and the flag may be there, there'll be something in that time that is so much greater. Because once more God has come down and this time He does not go back without us.

This is the end time. Standing here to raise those very dead. This is uniting time. It is invisible. Oh, I told you, my child, all the fruit over here, everything but almost nothing here. It's completely wiped out by the millions which will go to billions. as they flock to the false word, because that's what the Bible says they go to. Now remember, the floodwaters that saved Noah destroyed the earth. The same message that saves us destroyed the earth. But the bride stands with him united. But this uniting is uniting different from all other ages. This is wedding time. The gathering of the entire bride to the wedding time. He which hath begun a good work will not fail to perform it. But the bride's got to have a testimony. She's not going to be flirting out there in the world and everything else. She's not going to say, well, I think I'm really prepared to marry John. He's the one that really proposed to me and I think I'm married. But you know, I think that little boy with those cute feet. Remember Brother Branham? Yeah.

Why don't you marry somebody that's deep in the real matter? Well, he's got cute feet.

She's got the sweetest freckles. She

talks in something beautiful. Not against that. Of course she doesn't. How does she stand with the word? Find such a bride with such character. So listen to the message. Such character stands for the water's separation if she gets dressed. I believe I've been called it. He said to dress her bride. Yeah. Man, stand right there. The manifestation, the flesh of the Holy Spirit is one and the same thing. That's right. What are you putting on today? You're putting on something other than a word? I want to tell you one thing. God will only answer back. His brother man said, you say the right thing, God answers back. He said, that woman, was it Hattie Wright? Yeah. Well, her name's really Mrs. Mosher. He said, she said the right thing, God answered back. I understand Dalton said this right thing, and God answered back. And I guess right today, Dalton's children's girls are saved. They're going on. I don't know any word about Hattie's boys. I just know one thing. If they're out there fooling around, they'll get tanned. They'll come back. Sure. God's not going to lose any. God doesn't say something down here and seal that thing and then say, well, that wasn't sealed in heaven. See? That voice has got to answer back. There's got to be the voice here that says the right thing there. There's only one thing that can be said. That's that word. So the bride listened to that word and she said, I'm a father and I'm the

one today. One because of the indissoluble use of the person of baptism with the Holy Ghost. One because of our oneness with each other. There is a bride that is complete. Don't ever get that in your head, there's not. Brother Vance said, if we're not brides, she's out there somewhere. Mother Grace, if I don't understand her, see? Understanding it. And there you go, the third step, because he does it in three, remember? He said, look, I'm right here. I'm not going to leave you until we go back. She may have a little tough time. Maybe a little bit of a problem. But nothing but what's common to all men from all ages. Remember this, Brother Sister, when you and I come to that place where we really admit it. The squeeze is going to come on down.

Because nobody in that little thing that's to come, the tribulation, that whole thing, is going to be able to say, I have a relationship to God that nobody else has. They say, who do you think you are? They'll get you. They'll cut you down. But you know something? They'll just try to. They're not going to succeed. Brother Van said, they'll shut those doors. They'll stop us as far as they know. They're not going to stop us. No. Because she's got him. I and my beloved are one.

Heavenly Father, we know that your word is truth and we know, Lord, that it may take some time of confessing and watching, but we know, Lord, as the prophet said, if we're not bride, there's a bride up there somewhere and she will be saying, I and my father are one. We know that. We know that even during the squeeze, whatever all that is, we believe that would be the time because he said, the shuck will separate from me. From the week at that particular time, we believe Lord God, that as it was in the Alpha, it's in the Omega, and there is a bride that is one, and she begins to recognize this is what the Holy Spirit is all about. It's to draw us back, it's to bind us back, to make us one with Almighty God and with each other as that great company that will stand in His presence and honor

and glory today. As the people begin to register the mechanics that lie within your words, that this is the end,

try to do it.

With the rich man going to the little girl out west, we just stood there waiting. By

the atmosphere, something. We

might not see it with our eyes, but we know it by the word, by the real faith

with us. Faith put together.

Bless each one here in divine presence, Lord. May it be stated. We're not filled, Lord. Seek a true baptism with the Holy Ghost to know that we are filled. To know, Lord Jesus, by the evidence of the power of that word. Energizing. Dynamizing. God, we pray for all of your people. They thank you for what you've done. And what you are doing, what you are about to do, we pray that you glorify your name in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen. Just sing that song and then you're okay to go. Take the name of Jesus with you, guys, and that's the best thing to do. Just start it right off.
