Life-Giver to the Word Seed

220 GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.WORSHIP - SHP.LA - V-7 N-4 - 65-1128.1M

As He was right then, so is He today. Don't you miss that, people across this nation! "Another will come, a church, and you'll believe that, because you can just do any way. I won't vindicate it." He's never (at any time, ever) vindicated anything (in any church) outside of the Message that was given: Luther's, justification; Wesley, sanctification; Pentecostal, restoration of the gifts. And as soon as they make a denomination out of it, there it died. Search the Scriptures.

221 GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.WORSHIP - SHP.LA - V-7 N-4 - 65-1128.1M

But He said, "I will choose the place to put My Name." And the Name was Jesus. And Jesus is the Word, St. John 1. Is that right? That's the place of worship, in Christ the Word. "I come in My Father's Name." The prophet said, "His Name shall be called Emmanuel." That's Matthew 1:23, if you want to... wrote it... that down. Jesus, Jehovah, the Savior.

223 GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.WORSHIP - SHP.LA - V-7 N-4 - 65-1128.1M

Now, the 5th verse shows that He is the door. By now, many other invisible proofs,( in other words, vindication) this gate, and Name, and place can be proved to be there's only one place that God meets man to worship, and that's when he's in Christ.

224 GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.WORSHIP - SHP.LA - V-7 N-4 - 65-1128.1M

Now, now the question is, "How do we get in Him?" Now, this may pinch just a little bit; but, you know, like taking medicine, if it don't make you sick, it don't do you no good. See?

225 GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.WORSHIP - SHP.LA - V-7 N-4 - 65-1128.1M

Now, the Lutherans wanted to get in one way, by joining the Lutheran church. The Methodists wanted to get in by shouting. The Pentecostals wanted to get in by speaking in tongues. That still ain't it! See? No, that's gifts, so forth. But I Corinthians 12 says, "By one Spirit." Spirit of God, which is the Life-giver to the Word (the Seed), to vindicate that Seed for that season. See?

Ephesians 2: 1

2 Peter 1: 2 - 4

Galatians 6: 8

Phillippians 2: 16

1 john 1: 1 - 3 Life

2 Timothy 1: 1, 10

Now notice how he uses the word vindicate here. He is speaking of the Holy Spirit coming and quickening the Word which he calls a seed, in order to vindicate the seed for the Season. Now what he is doing here is he substituted the word vindicate for the word manifest. You see the word vindicate means ( ( to clear from criticism or guilt; to uphold by evidence or argument. ) So he is saying that when the seed is given Life, that ends the argument as to whether the seed is for this season or not. In other words, the seed coming into manifestation is the evidence that it is alive. So by the very fact that the Word Seed comes into manifestation proves that the Seed is the proper Word for the hour. It is God's way of vindicating that Word for the hour and season.

Now we know that God's Word is a Seed. We can find it in scripture as Jesus telling us about the Son of Man Who went forth sowing a seed which is the Word of God.

Luke 8: 11 ( read) The word is the seed

Mark 4: 13 - 20 Now in this parable He is speaking about life. A seed which He says in verse 14 is the Word of God. But Specifically He tells us that it is Life. Remember in John 6: 63 He said, (" My Words are Spirit and they are Life." ) and actually by calling the Word of God a Seed, He is in this parable letting us know that the Word contains Life. And since it is the Word of God, then it is the Life of God, or God Life that is in the Seed He is talking about. But notice in this parable what happens to that God life. PP. 15 we see a miscarriage pp. 17 we see an abortion pp. 19 we see stillborn pp. 20 we see vindication by identification. The Seed brings forth vindicating that it is in the right person.

Again we see the scripture refer to the Word of God as to a Seed in 1 Peter 1: 23 (read)

Now let's follow this thought through with brother Branham's message as we read the next few paragraphs.

226 GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.WORSHIP - SHP.LA - V-7 N-4 - 65-1128.1M

Here's the Methodist-age seed laying there, it taken the Holy Spirit to make that seed come to life and pure... purify the church by sanctification; Luther didn't preach that, 'cause he didn't know it. The Pentecostals wanted to speak in tongues for the restoration of the gifts. Each one declares, "That's It! That's It!" See?

227 GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.WORSHIP - SHP.LA - V-7 N-4 - 65-1128.1M

"But by one Spirit we're all baptized into one Body," and that Body is a family, the family of God. And that's the house of God, and the house of God is the Name of Jesus Christ. "The Name of the Lord is a mighty tower, the righteous run into It and are safe."

John 8: 28 is John 6: 44 - 45 & Ephesians 1: 15 - 17 The Father instructing His Children

John 8: 28 again, => 35 They spake of being seed but He spoke of Sons as in adoption

Galatians 4: 1 - 7

John 8: 36 - 47

228 GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.WORSHIP - SHP.LA - V-7 N-4 - 65-1128.1M

Now, how you going to come in by a title? How's your check going to be received by saying, "Pay to the order of--of Reverend, Doctor, Minister"? No. See? See? You might be a reverend, doctor, minister. But the name of the Lord is "Jesus Christ." See?

229 GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.WORSHIP - SHP.LA - V-7 N-4 - 65-1128.1M

"I have chose to put My Name at the door of the house of My worship, for My family will be gathered in there under the Blood; like it was in Egypt, anything outside died. And in there there's no leavened bread! There's no denominational mixture in It anywhere, My house! My children, borned of My genes!" Amen! Glory to God! "My genes are in them! My... I put My Word in them. I will write them upon the tables of their heart. That's My family, the family of the Body of Jesus Christ; the family. And this door you'll come in, not Methodist, Baptist, or Pentecostal, but in the door where I put My Name." It ain't Methodist. God's Name ain't Methodist. God's Name ain't Pentecostal. God's Name ain't Baptist. God's Name ain't Catholic. Stay out of the doors then. See? See? See?

1 John 3: 1 - 3 now

1 John 2: 29 Notice the continuity. Take away the chapters and verses and we read a letter.

1 John 2: 18 - 3: 3 Notice how this ties together with John 8: 36 - 47

"But in a place where I choose to put My Name." Now, there's not another place in the Bible given where that God ever put His Name, only in Jesus Christ, for He is the Son of God taking the Name of God, and God's human Name. "And there's not another name given under Heaven whereby you must be saved." I don't care, Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, catechisms, or whatever you want to do; only through the Name of Jesus Christ where every knee shall bow and every tongue shall confess to it, Him being Lord. There's how you come in.

2 Corinthians 3: 18

quote # 26A & 27 in back of bible

231 GOD'S.PROVIDED.PLACE.WORSHIP - SHP.LA - V-7 N-4 - 65-1128.1M

And if you was just baptized in water right--right, and then deny the Word, then you're illegitimate; your birth wasn't correct. You claim that you believed Him then, and you deny Him. 232 How could I deny my family? When... How could I deny Charles Branham being my father? A blood test on the door shows it. Uh-huh. 233 My action, and the vindication of God's Word in my life shows whether I'm a child of God or not. Now, there's God's only place. See it? The only place that God will receive your sacrifice (I don't care how sincere you are) is in Christ.

1 John 5: 10 - 21

James 1: 12

What is the vindication of God's Word in my Life? I'll believe His Word. I'll live it, I'll manifest it.
