Attributes of a Son of God no 11
Born of Incorruptible Word
April 10, 2013
Brian Kocourek
This evening we will look at the The
Eleventh attribute of a son of God: which is Being
Born of Incorruptible Seed, the Revealed & vindicated Word of God.
For
our text let's turn in our Bibles to 1Peter 1:23 Being born again, not of corruptible
seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.
I want you to notice that there are two new births
mentioned here. One is born of corruptible seed, which is man's words, while
the other is incorruptible, which is born of the Word Seed, the vindicated
Word, the Revealed Word Seed of God.
Now, tonight we will take a simple study of these two
births, and show the main how one is a temporary birth which does not last at
all. It goes from revival to revival or from altar call to altar call. But the
Birth by the Incorruptible seed, is one that is eternal. That life can not die.
It can not fade away. It can not diminish. It will last forever.
Now, brother Branham said in his sermon, Abraham 55-0608 P:61 If
a seed goes in the ground, a grain of wheat, it cannot produce anything else
but a grain of wheat. So if you go around, say, "Well, praise the Lord,
I've been saved. I've got the Holy Ghost." And living any kind of a
life, you better get back to the altar of God again, 'cause the incorruptible
Seed of God cannot be one thing. You cannot be a wheat and a cocklebur at
the same time. You've got to either be a wheat or a cocklebur. You all got
cockleburs down here? All right, greenbriar then,
ever what you want to call it, some other weed. You see? You can't be a weed
and a wheat at the same time. If you got the spirit in you of the life of
wheat, you'll produce wheat. If you've got the spirit in you of the life of
a cocklebur, it'll be a cocklebur. And if the Holy Ghost is in you, you'll
believe God, love God, and act like a Christian. That's right. If it isn't,
you'll know them by the fruits they bear. Oh, what we need today is a
good old time Holy Ghost revival. What we need today is an old time shaking
again of the power of God, a moving of the mulberry bushes to go forward to
battle again. God's giving the moving, if people will just listen to it and
believe it.
Now,
I want you to notice brother Branham here is speaking of the Law of Life which
we see in Genesis 1:11, that every seed must bring forth after it's kind. And
all this is telling us is whatever the seed is, it has a certain life that has
certain characteristics. And those characteristics are a part of that life, so
whatever Seed-Life you plant. what comes up will have to be the character and
nature of that Seed Life that was planted.
from His
sermon, The Spoken word original seed 62-0318M P:90 brother Branham said, "What is it? Same seed. How can you plant wheat here and wheat
here and say, "I'm going to get cucumbers here and wheat
here?" You can't do it. The only way you're going to get cucumbers is
plant cucumbers. If you hybreed it, then it won't be
a cucumber. It'll be a hypocrite. Is that right? It'll be a hypocrite, friends.
This... You've got to say it. It isn't neither one. Isn't cucumber or what you
bred it with. It's a crossbreed, and it is a bad product, and it's dead in
itself, and it can't breed itself back no more. It's dead right there--back,
won't go no farther. That finishes it; that's all.But
if you want a cucumber, start with a cucumber. If you want a church, start with
the Word of God. If you want a Life of God, start with the Word of God.
Accept the Word of God in Its fullness, every measure of It. And then that's...
And if that is the fullness of God in you, then the rain that's falling will produce
exactly what's in your garden. See?
So
incorruptible Word Seed will produce incorruptible Word Seed Life.
1
Peter 3:4 But let it be the hidden man of the heart, in that
which is not corruptible, even the ornament
of a meek and quiet spirit, which is in the sight of God of great price.
So the seed is planted in the heart. That is why
Brother Branham said I would rather your heart be right than your doctrine,
because if your heart is right, then when you plant the doctrine in that heart
that is right, the doctrine will produce the same life as the Seed that was
planted. But what if you got a wrong
heart? Then the seed planted, will not be intellectual Seed with no life in it.
And it will produce intellectual life.
From his sermon, Law
having a shadow 54-1203 P:69 brother Branham said, "For a grain of corn cannot produce a cockleburs;
neither can cockleburs produce corn. And if you're sowed with the
incorruptible Seed of God, born again of the Spirit of God you're whole motive,
everything in your whole life goes towards God. In the day when Noah turned
the crow loose, he was a bird set right on the ark, set in the ark right on
the same floor with the dove. He could fly just as far as the dove.
He could make a noise like the dove. But when they turned them loose... The
crow was a scavenger. He could fly from one dead body to the other one and
satisfy himself. But the dove could not satisfy herself. She flew back
to the ark and pecked on the window, until father Noah opened the window. She
was a dove. A dove is a bird that doesn't have any gall. It cannot digest rotten
things.
Notice how bother Branham brings out about the
difference in the nature and the characteristics of the Dove and Crow to show
how they would act differently even though both sat together in the ark.
I will restore 54-0809A P:35 Jesus said, "Every Word of God is a Seed." Is that
right? A sower went forth sowing seed. He said,
"I, the Son of man, has sowed the Seed, and the seed's the Word of
God." And every time you see this Bible say anything, it's a Seed, and
it's absolutely... And we're sowed with the incorruptible Seed of God.
And if a man will take any Divine promise of God in his heart and
water it with faith, it'll produce just exactly what it said it would do.
Amen. Don't care what it is. Just take God's promise in your heart and there...
Notice
that the seed is sown in his heart and it is in the heart that the Life will
come forth into manifestation first. Then when the what is in the heart
overflows it flows over into the body and becomes manifest outwardly what is in
the heart.
John
3:3-8 Jesus answered and
said unto him, Verily, verily, I say unto thee, Except
a man be born again, he cannot see the
And from his sermon, Seal
of God 54-0514 P:70 brother Branham said,
"When a grain of wheat falls into
the earth, no matter... If that grain of wheat dies to itself, it can't
produce a cocklebur, to save its soul. A grain of wheat will bring forth a
grain of wheat, just as sure as anything. And if we are sowed with the
incorruptible Seed of God, how can It produce anything but a life of Christ's
Life? The Holy Spirit leading the Church, leads It in the power of the
resurrection of Jesus Christ, and you're sealed until the day of the
redemption. That's the Bible. "Grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby
you're sealed until the day of your redemption." Ephesians 4:30."
So
we see the characteristic of the believer is that of the incorruptible seed, in
other words being incorruptible, it can not perish and we see this in John 3:15-16 That whosoever
believeth in him should not perish, but have eternal life. 16 For
God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever
believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.
Expectations and what love is 54-0228A P:54
Just like a grain of
corn, when it goes into the ground, it cannot be a creeper, cocklebur,
jimsonweed, or a cactus stalk. It's got the life in it of corn; it'll produce
corn. And if a man's ever born of the Spirit of God, he becomes a new
creature and can't produce nothing else, but godly fear, and godly love,
and the fruits of the Spirit. For it is Life. We are sowed with
the incorruptible seed of God, the imperishable seed of God. It's got to
produce just exactly of its kind. Amen. I hope I'm not too loud.
Notice, it's got its life in it. When a grain of corn goes into the
ground, if it's a yellow grain, it'll produce a yellow stalk of corn, yellow
grain of corn. If it goes in a wheat, it'll produce a wheat. A barley will a
barley. Whatever it is will produce just exactly what it says.
You know this is so basic, I
don't know why people just can't understand this? But they seem to think
"I'm born again and it don't hurt me to drink. It don't hurt me to smoke.
Well, my brother, sister, who told you that you were born again? How do you
know? I will tell you how you will know, because when God's Life comes into
your vessel you won't smoke, and you won't drink, and you won't live like the world,
because God don't live like the world. And if You God His Holy Spirit you got
His Holy Life.
When their eyes were opened 56-0420 P:7 What
is sin? Unbelief. Smoking, drinking, committing adultery, lying,
stealing, that's not sin. That's the attributes of sin. You do
that because you're an unbeliever. If you was a believer you wouldn't do
that. See? Just because you quit drinking, and quit smoking, and
quit drinking, and committing adultery, that doesn't make you a Christian. You're
a Christian because you are a believer. See? You are a sinner be... You
do the things that you ought not, because the life that's in you
makes you do it. A tree's known by its fruit.
Matthew 7:24 Therefore whosoever heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them, I
will liken him unto a wise man, which built his house upon a rock: 25 And the rain descended, and the floods came,
and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell not: for it was
founded upon a rock. 26 And every one that heareth these sayings of mine, and doeth them not,
shall be likened unto a foolish man, which built his house upon the sand: 27 And the rain descended, and the floods came,
and the winds blew, and beat upon that house; and it fell: and great was the
fall of it.
Notice then to hear and not do
makes you just a fool, but to hear and do makes you a believer. And notice the
same tests will come to both the fool and the believer, but only the believer
will stand the test. But the test will be the undoing of the fool. Notice this
shows the difference between the wise virgin and the foolish virgin. They both
heard the midnight cry, but one was ready while the other was not. One did
while the other had to go do but it was too late.
Faith once delivered to saints 53-1129A
P:29 When our Bible
said that we are sown with the incorruptible Seed of God, imperishable. It
cannot perish; God's Word can't perish. Now, every seed will bring forth
of its kind.
And
we must have this incorruptible Word to bring to us the incorruptible body.
1Corinthians
Notice how brother Branham explains this in Explaining healing and Jairus
54-0216 P:11 If you will notice what it
is, the cancer comes from a germ. So did you come from a germ.
You were one time, one little germ. You come to one... What is a germ? It's
a teeny, little cell. What's beyond that cell? It's life. Then you're in
the supernatural realm. Then it begins to develop cells, everything after
it's kind, the dog to dog, bird to bird, human to human,
every seed after it's kind. Keeps developing cells, till you
grow to where you are now. And then, in your body it becomes a cancer, a
tumor, or cataract, or something. What's that? That's another germ developing
cells. It has no form, it just runs anyways. Nothing behind it, it's the devil.
Runs out and spreads out, and covers the eye, or gets in... Then goes to
sucking your blood. And remember that cancer, in there developing cells, is
growing just like you did in the womb of your mother. Now, where'd he come
from? It wasn't there in the beginning. That's another life in your life.
That's another body in your body. And you can't tell me the kind heavenly
Father did that. That life can't come from God. It's a evil life to take
the life that God give you. So it isn't God's life. It's the devil.
What think ye of Christ 53-1213M P:7 Then you trans-set it out into the yard,
and it just keeps growing. But you can praise God just as soon as you get the
acorn. Is that right? Because you've got the tree already. Is that right? Now,
when God said, "I'm the Lord that healeth
thee." Just start praising. You got it; you got it right then. You say,
"Well, I don't see any results, but that don't make any difference, you
got it anyhow. See? 'Cause the Word of God is a Seed. Is that right? And
we are sowed with the incorruptible Seed of God. See? It can't perish; it's
incorruptible. And I... Here's a statement that I usually make in the healing
services, "The right mental attitude towards any Divine promise of God
will bring it to pass." See? 'Cause it's a seed. It has to.
Notice,
we who can not perish are believers as we read earlier in this study and Jesus
said in Luke 21:18 But there shall not an hair of your head
perish.
And as we mentioned about the same test coming upon
everyone, we hear brother Branham speak of these tests in his sermon, For Him will I accept 52-0718 P:23 Job had not sinned; he knew he hadn't sinned. And he had not
sinned, so he would not confess it, because he absolutely hadn't sinned. But God
was really trying him, putting him to the test. And I believe that every
Christian that's born again, has to go to those tests. Every son that
cometh to God must be first chastened, purged. Is that right? If you cannot
stand chastisement of the Lord, then you become a bastard, or a illegitimate
child. You claim God to be you Father, and you know nothing of Him. See?
A real, true, born again child of God stands firm. We are sowed with the
incorruptible seed of God; it cannot perish. See what I mean?
Again
in Matthew 18:14 we hear Jesus give us the promise again. Even so it is not
the will of your Father which is in heaven, that one of these little ones
should perish.
Faith in the Son of God 52-0715 P:20 The Devil won't judge by the good
things; he will judge by the worst things. He throws it all over on the
Word. The same thing he will do by Christians. He will say, "Look at
there. Look at that guy, supposed to be a Christian, out there living with this
other man's wife, drinking liquor, doing these things there. Well, I'm
as good as he is." Sure, you're better than he is. But brother, that
guy has nothing to do with the man who's really living a real Christian life
and loves Christ. If he loves Christ, he won't do those things. For he's
born of the Spirit of God, and the seed of God reminds in him and he will have
no desire to do that. The Bible said, "The worshipper once purged
has no more conscience, or no more desire of sin." And if you still
have the desire, you haven't been purged yet. That's just one thing sure.
See? If you still have a desire in your heart to go out and lust and sin,
just remember, my friend, you need to come back to God, back to the altar.
For we are sowed with the incorruptible seed of God. An ordinary, say,
grain of wheat won't perish if it's in the right kind of a ground. How about
the seed of God which is incorruptible? It's got to produce just exactly
what it says it will.
And what about preachers or so called believers having
their social drinks, right in this Message. look how Satan will point them out
and say, yeah those Message people, or those Vaylite's
they all do that stuff when that is nothing but a lie, a scarecrow to keep
people from those who are living as Christ and teaching the same.
Now, I'm not going to hold any punches tonight
brothers and sisters, so let me just tell you something, if you still have a
taste for that stuff, you have not been born again yet. You have not come up to
Christ and died to yourself. Brother Branham told us
God's
provided way 53-1201 P:45 God always calls for separators. Lot of people in the
church say, "We want this young fellow; he's just got out of college. And
I tell you; he take a social drink, and oh, he's a good mixer."
God don't want mixers; He wants separators. "Separate Me
Paul..." Separate yourself from the things of the world. God have mercy. Give
us some old time preachers that'll preach the unadulterated Gospel of Jesus
Christ, call black black, and white white, and lay the Gospel where it will. As John the
Baptist said, "The axe is laid to the root of the tree." Give us some
more preachers like that. We'll get back to God's way about things then. Amen.
And
Jesus said, Luke 13:3-5 I tell you, Nay: but,
except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish. 4 Or
those eighteen, upon whom the tower in Siloam fell, and slew them, think ye
that they were sinners above all men that dwelt in Jerusalem? 5 I
tell you, Nay: but, except ye repent, ye shall all likewise perish.
And now that we can focus on just what this all means,
let me read something brother Branham said in Birth
pains 65-0124 P:60 Now, the Word
must produce the Bride. But the old system has to keep its type; it
has to produce a Esau who sold his birthright. Here it comes; I feel it. I
hope you don't think I'm crazy, but if I am, let me alone. I feel good this
a-way. I'm better this way than I was the other way. I may be crazy to the
world, but I know where I'm at. I know where I'm standing. Look, it's going
to produce a stillborn baby, an ecclesiastical system that's going to bring all
the denominations together to produce a Esau that hates Jacob. Amen. I hope
you see it. A stillborn, dead denomination, all of them going together...Oh,
Word believers, give in to my Message. Hear me. Not my Message but His Message
that He firmly declares to be the Truth... You've got to choose from
somewhere. You can't set still after this. You've got to make your choice.
Psalms 1:1 Blessed is the
man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly,
nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. 2 But his delight is in the law of the LORD; and in his law doth he
meditate day and night. 3 And he shall be like a
tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth
forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever
he doeth shall prosper.
Now contrast the life of the righteous with the life
of the unrighteous as we see in the next verse.
Psalms 1:4 The ungodly are
not so: (The ungodly are not so what? They are not like the
righteous.) but they are
like the chaff which the wind driveth away. 5 Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the
judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. 6 For
the LORD knoweth the way of the righteous: (that
word knoweth is the Hebre3w word Yada
which means to watch over with an active participation.) but the way of the ungodly shall perish.And the
Hebrew word for perish is awbad which means to be
left to themselves. The footsteps of the righteous are ordered of the Lord, but
the ungodly are left to themselves to perish.
Now, look, we are talking about the Word which is a
seed, an incorruptible seed, and it contains an incorruptible Life. So if you
have truly received the Seed of the Word of God, then your life becomes
incorruptible. You don't drink, you don't smoke, you don't tell dirty jokes,
you don't lie, you don't steal, because your life is hid with Christ in God.
How many people has the devil deceived into thinking they are born again
because they have accepted some doctrine or creed, and they say the evidence is
that I have this creed, I can recite this creed. But Jesus said by their fruits
you shall know them, and the fruits of the Spirit ought to be the same fruits
in our life if we are truly reflecting the Incorruptible seed life of the Word
of God.
God testifying of His gifts 52-0713E P:14 Now, a cancer, now that the first place is
a medical name, comes from the word crab, with many legs. There's many forms
of cancer. There's a Red cancer, and the Sarcomas cancer, and
the different types of cancer. The rugose
cancer, rugose cancer's usually on a woman's breast,
just piles up like, oh, like pancakes on top of each other. And the sarcomas
cancer is the worst, I guess, of all of it. But now, let's watch what it is. The
first place, it's a growth. All right. Now, it's a little body. Well
now, before it can become a body, it has to become a cell, and then the
developing of cells, before it can be a body. Now, let's just take, for
instance, you. You here tonight, you was one time, I was one time, just a
little teeny germ. You were too. And now, through holy wedlock, why, when
we were brought in to the human incubator, then that teeny, little cell that
you were in, so small that the human eye can't see it, it looked like a little,
through a microscope glass like a little thread, or something. And then, right
in the middle of it, is like a knot begins when it begins to develop, tie.
That's the spine. And in there, that one little, teeny cell that you come
from, begin to multiply itself, and begins to develop out from one little teeny
cell, cell on cell, and every seed after it's kind. The bird will produce a
bird, the dog, a dog, a human, a human, every seed after it's kind. Now...
So it all comes down to what Seed Life has taken over
your body? And by your fruits they will know youi.
Romans 8:2 For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ
Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death.
Questions and answers COD 59-1223 P:64 Now, the law of sin and death works in
your flesh, but the law of the Spirit of Life works in your heart.
So your heart, your spirit in your heart will make your body obey what it
says do. That's exactly right.
Romans 8:1 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which
are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, (who walk not after self) but
after the Spirit. 2 For the law of the Spirit of
life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. 3 For what the law could not do, in that it was weak
through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and
for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: 4 That the righteousness of
the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, (who
have died to self) but walk according after the
Spirit. 5 For they that are after the flesh, (they
who are self centered) do mind the things of the
self; but they that are after the Spirit the things of the Spirit. 6 For to be carnally minded is
death; but to be spiritually minded is life and
peace. 7 Because
the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is
not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8 So then they
that live for self cannot please God. 9 But ye are
not self centric, but in the Spirit, if so be that the Spirit of God dwell in
you. Now if any man have not the Spirit of Christ, he is none of his. 10 And if Christ be in
you, the body is dead because of sin; but the
Spirit is life because of righteousness. 11 But if the Spirit of him that raised up Jesus from
the dead dwell in you, he that raised up Christ from the dead shall also
quicken your mortal bodies by his Spirit that dwelleth
in you. 12 Therefore,
brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. 13 For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die: but if
ye through the Spirit do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live. 14 For as many as are led by the Spirit of God, they are
the sons of God. 15 For ye have not received the
spirit of bondage again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption,
whereby we cry, Abba, Father. 16 The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children
of God:
The problem is that the word seed has been presented
to many in this hour. The Son of Man went forth sowing the vindicated Word, but
that Word seed fell on many types of Ground. Many types of heart conditions.
Some stony, some that were not prepared to receive the seed life, other hearts
that were indifferent, and you name it.
Br. Branham said in his sermon, Show us the Father 59-0419E P:71 He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved. You go
right out of this building testifying that you're saved. What if you go out
of the building saying that, "Well, I don't know." Then you're not
saved. But God will make your body obey your confession. See? And
He's the High Priest of our confession. Before you can be healed, you have
to confess it first. You have to believe that you are healed. And
then when you believe you're healed, God makes your body obey your
confession. So now when you come by here, just let it be settled; say,
"God, this is Your command. I believe I'm healed," walked off the
platform say... [Blank spot on tape--Ed.]
Matthew 7:22-23 22 Many will say
to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? (Oreached in the name of
Jesus, yeah!!!) and in thy name have cast out
devils? (notice they got the name right!!! )and in thy name done many wonderful works?(and they even done many wonderful miracles in the name of Jesus!!!) 23 And
then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work
iniquity. Who is he talking too? Those who knew to do right and
didn't do it. Those who knew drinking was wrong and a stumbling block to others
and they did it anyway. Come on !!! What is iniquity? To know to do right and
you don't do it to him it is iniquity.
Spoken word original seed 62-0318M P:157 Jesus said, "Many will come to Me in that day and say,
'Lord, Lord, have not I did this, and did that, and did that, and so forth, in
Your Name?'" He'd
say, "Depart from
Me, you worker of iniquity." What is iniquity? Something that you know that's
wrong, and you do it anyhow; and you know that God's Word is right.
Why do you play the hypocrite? Because of your organization and pick a
little bit here and won't take the rest of it. "You worker of
iniquity," He said, "depart from Me; I never even knew you." Now, You either wade through hell
here or hereafter, so... See?
Now, here is he key to the whole thing, brother
Branham says in Attitude and who is God? 50-0815
P:35 And when the inspiration of the
Holy Spirit is here to inspire you, remember, God will make your body come
into your confession. If you say you're a drunkard, and want a drink. Don't
worry, you'll soon be one. If you say you're a sinner, and want to sin,
you'll be right into it. If you say you're a Christian and believe it all
along, God will bring... Your testimony will bring you right into it. If
you believe in healing, and believe that God has healed you, confess it, and
God will make your body obey your confession, for He's the High Priest
of your confession; setting at the right-hand of the Father now with His
own Blood to make intercessions for any confession upon anything that He died
for. And He died to rid sin. And sickness is the result of sin. "He was
wounded for our transgressions, with His stripes we are healed." Remember
that. Have faith. Don't waiver. Stand on it.
The Eleventh attribute of Serpent
Seed is: Born
of corruptible seed, word of another age
I stand at the door and knock 57-1208 P:61 And we realize that the people who
receive anything otherwise than by the Word, it doesn't last very long.
We think of the children of Israel, how they all stumbled at the
supernatural and then fell in the wilderness. Truly it is, Lord, unless
people has a solid faith on Your Word...
And aren't they stumbling at the supernatural today?
Then can they expect different results? Not if He's the same and changes not!!!
Paul said to the Galatians, Galatians 5:7-9 7 Ye did run well; who did hinder you that ye should not
obey the truth? 8 This
persuasion cometh not of him that calleth you. 9 A little leaven leaveneth the whole lump.
Thy house 61-0808 P:39 Friends, a conversion, outside of the same
thing, won't last either. It won't. When you go to church, and you say,
"Well, I'm going to join church, and I'm going to be baptized." If
that isn't coming from a heart of love to God yonder, it'll never go no where.
All you'll do is join church and be baptized. But when you're converted to
Christ, a love to Christ, then you accumulate a faith in Christ, like you
would to your wife, or to your husband. You accumulate a faith that you
walk in that faith. I don't know, something about you, you just got something
that anchors you there. You see? Well, that's the same way it is about Christ.
And what Christ says, you
believe it. And you just stay right with it. And that's the way... It just
raises you right up above it, and God brings it to pass and fulfills His
promise, "If thou will believe on the Lord Jesus
Notice the corruptible seed
have a zeal but no real heart changing knowledge. Romans
10:2-3 2 For
I bear them record that they have a zeal of God, but not according to
knowledge. (And what is this knowledge? It is epiginosis, it is knowldge based on
an experiential relationship. Knowing not by head knowledge, not by intellect,
but by experiencing it.) They have zeal but no relationship. 3 For they being ignorant of God's right-wise-ness, and
going about to establish their own right-wise-ness, have not submitted
themselves unto the right-wise-ness of God.
And so when a vindicated
prophet tells you that he is going to define something, and it goes against
what you believe do you say, "that's not what the Bible says, it says
this..."
End time the
54-0307A P:48 When Israel come out of Egypt, God promised He'd supply everything
they had need of. And that was the church, natural, typing the Church,
spiritual, today. And when they crossed the river, the Red Sea, rather, got on
the other side, they was without bread. They'd eat all they had. God promised
to take care of them. That night, manna rained down out of heaven, filled all
the ground around. Next morning, they went out. God had supplied them bread.
And they'd pick up them little pieces of wafer and eat it. They said it tasted
like honey, sweet. Did you ever taste any of it? That was a perfect type of the
Holy Spirit coming down to supply food for us while we're in the journey going
to the promised land, the millennium: beautiful type. 49 I want you
to notice. He said, "Don't pick up too much of it, just what you can
use today." Don't try to go to church one day and get enough
religion to last you till next year. It won't last. That kept over
got wiggletails in it. That's what's the matter with
a lot of our Pentecostal churches today. In other words, you got a lot of wiggletails trying to go on in the experience you had years
ago. Let's get up higher and move on right now. That's right. What a
beautiful type. And you remember, the manna never ceased from that day until
they entered into the promised land. And the Holy Ghost that fell on the day of
Pentecost, will never cease falling on the Church till the Millennium comes,
Jesus comes in power:
In
other words, you might have had a wonderful experience when you met God years
ago, but what about today. You've got to die daily brother, sister. O, I got
the Holy Ghost when I heard a tape 29 years ago. What about today brother. 2
million people followed the Pillar of Fire right out of Egypt. What an
experience to write home about. They were baptized under the cloud, and in the
red sea. and Jesus said they are everyone dead. as in eternally separated.
Think of it, 2 million followers of the Pillar of Fire. Dead, eternally
separated from God.
Don't
try to live on yesterday's manna brother, He is the I am, not the I was.
Notice
the promise to those born of corruptible seed. All they have to look forward to
is to perish. To fade away. To backslide, to loose their way. To turn aside. to
fall away. All those promises are in the Bible as well brother Sisters, and
they are for those who have not been born again of the Vindicated Incorruptible
Word of God.
Psalm 9:3 When
mine enemies are turned back, they shall fall and perish at thy presence.
Psalm 37:20 20 But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the
LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall
consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
Psalm 68:2 2 As smoke is driven away, so
drive them away: as wax melteth
before the fire, so let the wicked perish at the
presence of God.
Spoken word original seed 62-0318M P:53 That's the reason you can hybreed a donkey and a horse, but it won't last. It's
death. But the original has got life. It comes back again. I hope you can see
it now. The original has the life; so that's the reason I think that cults and
denominations and organizations die. History proves they're every one dead.
They never did rise no more; they never will. They can't breed themselves back.
Got nothing to breed with; they're sterile. That's why Eve's children dies.
Acts 13:41 Behold, ye despisers, and wonder, and perish: for I work a work in
your days, a work which ye shall in no wise believe, though a man declare it
unto you.
1Corinthians 9:25 25 And every man that striveth for the mastery is temperate in all things. Now
they do it to obtain a corruptible crown; but we
an incorruptible.
Galatians 1:6-9 6 I marvel that ye are so soon removed from him that
called you into the grace of Christ unto another gospel:
7 Which is not another; but there be some that trouble you, and
would pervert the gospel of Christ. 8 But though we,
or an angel from heaven, preach any other gospel unto you than that which we
have preached unto you, let him be accursed. 9 As we
said before, so say I now again, If any man
preach any other gospel unto you than that ye have received, let him be
accursed.
2Corinthians 11:2-6 2 For I am jealous over you with godly
jealousy: for I have espoused you to one husband, that I may present you as a chaste virgin to Christ. 3 But
I fear, lest by any means, as the serpent beguiled Eve through his subtilty, so your minds should be corrupted from the
simplicity that is in Christ. 4 For if he that
cometh preacheth another Jesus, whom we have not
preached, or if ye receive another spirit, which
ye have not received, or another gospel, which ye have not accepted, ye might
well bear with him. 5 For I suppose I
was not a whit behind the very chiefest apostles. 6 But though I be rude in
speech, yet not in knowledge; but we have been throughly
made manifest among you in all things.
let us pray...
