Token no 4
Substitutionary Life
Brian Kocourek,
This morning I would like to take our thoughts to
study from paragraph 25 of Brother Branham's sermon called the Token, taken from his sermon of that same
title preached on
Exodus 12:13 And the blood shall be to you for a token upon the houses where
ye are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague
shall not be upon you to destroy you, when I smite the
Ezekiel 9:4 And
the LORD said unto him, Go through the midst of the city, through the midst of
Jerusalem, and set a mark upon the foreheads of the men that sigh and that cry
for all the abominations that be done in the midst thereof. 5 And
to the others he said in mine hearing, Go ye after him through the city, and
smite: let not your eye spare, neither have ye pity: 6 Slay utterly old and young, both maids, and little children, and women:
but come not near any man upon whom is the
mark; and begin at my sanctuary. ...
Malachi 4:1 For, behold, the day cometh, that shall burn
as an oven; and all the proud, yea, and all that do wickedly, shall be stubble:
and the day that cometh shall burn them up, saith the LORD of hosts, that it
shall leave them neither root nor branch. 2 But unto
you that fear my name shall the Sun of righteousness arise with healing in his
wings; and ye shall go forth, and grow up as calves of the stall. 3 And ye
shall tread down the wicked; for they shall be ashes under the soles of your
feet in the day that I shall do this, saith the
LORD of hosts. 4 Remember ye the law of Moses my servant, which I
commanded unto him in Horeb for all
Let us pray... Father we recognize that in your
mercy you have come down in this day to set a mark upon those who sigh and cry
for the abomination that is done in the city, and we see especially that city
of Washington DC which has polluted not only this nation but the nations of the
world with their sodomite agenda. But we have been expecting that to happen
because your Bible warned us that the Sodomites would be in control in the day
when the Son of Man would be revealed just as it was in the days of
Now, this morning I would like to speak from paragraph
25 of the Br. Branham's sermon the Token,
where he said, 25 The Life
that God had said, "That the day you eat
thereof, that day you die," and there'd
been a substitutionary life taken for the life of the believer. God in mercy accepted a
substitute for the life of the defiled person. When His child had
defiled himself with sin of disbelieving the Word, then God, rich in mercy, made
a substitute, and that was something had to die in its place. Nothing
else could work. That's why Cain's apples, and peaches, and so forth didn't
work. It had to be a life
that had blood in it. And the life was gone from the sacrifice. And now, the
blood was a token that God's order had been carried out.
We can go back as far
as Genesis
Genesis
3:21 Unto
Adam also and to his wife did the LORD God make coats of skins, and clothed
them
Later in Genesis chapter 4 we see God accept Abel's
sacrifice of an innocent bleeding dying lamb, and then Abel became His revelation
when He was slain and His innocent Blood cried out to God.
We also see in the Life of faithful Abraham that God
took the life of an Innocent fully grown Lamb, a male, which we call a Ram was
required as a replacement for the Life of Isaac, upon the altar. And then we
skip forward to the Exodus when we hear God speak to the children of Abraham,
and tell them that the Lamb is required for every house, and the blood of the
innocent Lamb must be applied as a token for each life in that house.
And this takes us to our statement that I wish to
examine this morning, where brother Branham speaks of a substitutionary
life that is required for our own life.
25 ..."there'd been a substitutionary life taken for the life of the
believer. God
in mercy accepted a substitute for the life of the defiled person. When
His child had defiled himself with sin of disbelieving the Word, then God, rich
in mercy, made a substitute, and that was something had to die in its
place. Nothing else could work. That's why Cain's apples, and peaches,
and so forth didn't work. It
had to be a life that had blood in it. And the life was gone from
the sacrifice. And now, the blood was a token that God's order had been
carried out.
26 Now, what did God require? The life. And
the blood showed that there had to be a life gone, so the blood was the token that the life
had been given, that something had died, God's requirement that a
life had been given, and the blood had been shed; and the blood stood for
the token that the life was gone. The life of the animal that God had spoke
should be taken was, the blood stood for the token. See, the believing worshipper was
identified with his sacrifice by the token.
27 I don't wish to
stay too long on these little quotations, but (which you could take the entire
service on one of them), but I want to stop here a moment to express that the
believer had to be identified with his sacrifice. See? If it, just the
sacrifice and made somewhere out there, he give it; but had to be identified
in it. Frankly, he had to place his hands on it first, to identify
himself with his sacrifice. And then the blood was placed to where he could
stand under the blood. The blood must be over him, and that was a token that he
had identified himself, guilty, and had proven that an innocent substitute had
taken his place.
28 What a beautiful
picture. Oh. A redeemed... See? Justice had been met, and the requirement of
God's holy justice had been met, and God said, "Now,
I require your life." And then when the life had sinned,
then an innocent substitute took its place. And it was a blood beast, not
apple, peach. That ought to absolutely make the serpent's seed so plain to
everybody, that it was blood, and this blood which could not come out of fruit, come out of an innocent
substitute. And the life had gone out in his place, and the blood was a
symbol that the beast had died, and the blood was gone out.
Notice what brother
Branham is telling us here. I believe what he is telling us here is very vital
to our understanding as Christians, and very vital for our own survival as a
Christian and our survival from the wrath of God that is coming upon this earth
as God promised it would come.
I wish I could get this across to you in a way that
would shake you to the bone, because if you do not have that Life he is talking
about, God will never accept your sacrifice. And the blood of bulls, goats and
Lambs was acceptable up until the Death
of Jesus Christ because up until then the person would sacrifice an innocent
Lamb to atone for their sins, but that sacrifice never took the desire of evil
from their hearts and lives. so each year the sinner would have to come and offer the
life of an innocent one, to cover for their sin.
Now, this showed two things.
One) that the
sinner knew he was guilty, and
Two) it showed
that the sinner knew there was only one way out from the guilt of that sin, and
that was the Life of an innocent one could atone for his sin.
But as the Apostle Paul and brother Branham taught us,
that Life of the lamb was not sufficient enough to rid the person of their sin,
only good enough to identify Himself as a sinner and that He knew the life of
an innocent lamb was acceptable to God for his atonement of that sin, but not
strong enough to rid the sinner of the desire to sin.
So it would take the substitutionary
Life, the Life of the Son of God to come into the believer and Live His life for Him, and that substitutionary
Life would be the only Life that God would accept.
Therefore it took the once for all sacrifice of Jesus
Christ to rid the sinner of his desire to sin, because the sacrifice of Jesus
Christ not only released the very God-Life that was in Christ Jesus but also
allowed for that very God-Life that was living in the Son of God, that had
already been accepted by God, to come back and live again in us through the
baptism of the Holy Ghost. And without that Life that was in Christ being in
you, The Bible says "you are none of His".
Romans 8:9 But
ye are not in the flesh, 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.
God will not accept anything you can do, but he has
already accepted the Life of His son, and if that Life has come back into your
being then that is the only Life God will accept.
Therefore,
this morning I would like to talk about this Substitutionary
Life of God, that God will only accept, and we find that we have access to that
Life through the Word of Life, which is the Word of God.
Jesus said in John 6:63 It is the spirit that quickeneth; the flesh profiteth nothing: the words that I speak unto you, they are spirit, and they are life.
So we know that the Word of God is Life to us, and even our New birth is determined by the Word of God being quickened and made alive in us. The Apostle Peter taught us that the new Birth is brought about by the Word of God as a seed being quickened in us.
1 Peter
And therefore without the Word of God being made alive in you, you will never understand what the
And brother Branham taught us the meaning of these
words of Jesus in
Contending for the faith 55-0220E P:66 Jesus said, "Except a man be born again, he cannot see
the Kingdom." You can't understand it.
It's a mystic, mythical thing until you're born again. There the very
Life of God comes in you. Everlasting, Eternal Life, Zoe, God's
own Life comes in you, and then you're a part of God. You're a Son of God
or a daughter of God. And then
you see as God sees. You believe as God believes. Then you'll be a
new creature in Christ Jesus.
The Apostle Paul told us the same thing in 1 Corinthians
So
unless you are born again there is no way for you to understand the things of
God. You will hear them, and even repeat them, but you will not be able to echo
them or reflect in your life.
14 But
the natural man receiveth not the things of the Spirit of God: for they are
foolishness unto him: neither can he know them,
because they are spiritually discerned.
Therefore
it is impossible for the natural man to know the things of God.
And William Branham taught us that to see means to understand.
It shall be even as it was told me 50-0818 P:23
No matter what it looks like here... We don't look at what we see;
we look at what we do not see. Is that right? Anyhow, "to see"
doesn't mean "to look at." The word "see" means "to
understand." Jesus said, "Except a man be born of water and Spirit,
he cannot see the
And
so we see this Life that is in the Word must express itself or the Word the
person has is not an echo but just a mimicking and repeating the Word. And it
is not the Word, but the Life of the Word that God is looking for in you.
1 John 1:1 That which was from the beginning, which we
have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we have looked upon, and
our hands have handled, of the Word of life; He
calls it the
Word of Life because he goes on to say in verse 2 For the
life was manifested,(How was it manifested? In the body
of God's Only begotten son, that's how.) And we have seen it, and bear witness, and shew unto you that
eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us; (How
was it manifested unto us? he tells us through His Son. How will it be
manifested unto you? Through sons). So we see the Word is Life, It is God-Life, and every seed must bring forth after its kind, or nature. When
the Word of God-Life manifests itself, it manifests the God-Life that is in it.
Notice he called it the Word of Life, but I want you
to contrast that to what Paul said in 2 Corinthians
3:6 Who
also hath made us able ministers of the new testament; not of the letter,
but of the spirit: for the letter killeth, but the spirit giveth life.
So Paul said they were made able ministers of the Spirit, Notice, not of the letter but of the Spirit. And that is what John is saying as well.. 2 (For the life was manifested, and we have seen it, and we also bear witness, and shew unto you that eternal life, which was with the Father, and was manifested unto us;)
So we see in John
2 Corinthians 3:7 But if the ministration of death, written and engraven in stones, was
glorious, (Notice he is speaking of
the written word of God, the law) so that the
children of Israel could not steadfastly behold the face of Moses for the glory
of his countenance; which glory was to be done away:8 How shall not the ministration of the spirit
be rather glorious?
Not ministration of the written Word, but
ministration of the Word of Life by the same Spirit that
wrote the Word.
That's why I spoke to you a couple weeks ago, Token
no 2 about
the reflection or echoing which is not just a mimicking or repeating, but is
actually the saying the same thing by the same spirit. Only that has life,
because it takes the same spirit of the composer in you to make the same Words
echo with the same life in them as they were in the original.
Man that can Turn
on the Light 63-1229M 74
So life is only by the Word of God made manifest. Life comes only by the Word of God
made manifest. As long as it is just in the Book like this, it
still can be questioned; but when it's made manifest, then you see the product of what It spoke of
being manifested; then that is Light on the Word. See? That's what brings... The
Word said so, and then
when it comes to pass, that is Life in Light, Light bringing Life. Light brings life.
Plant the wheat out here, it'll... You put it in a basement, cover it all over,
and it'll never bring forth anything, because it can't; there's no light there.
But as soon as light strikes it, then it'll bring forth life if it's a germitized seed. That's the same thing it is in the
Word. See, the Word is God, and when the Light strikes It,
it brings the Word to life again. Every age has always been that.
That day on Calvary 60-0925 P:56 What is Eternal
Life? The Life
that He lived, the Life that was in Him: impart that to others. Can a man do that?
A Son of God can.
Jesus said, "Whosoever
sins you remit to them they are remitted. Whosoever sins you retain, to them
they are retained."
Now, here's where the Catholic church and many of the
others made their big mistake. They go out and say, "I forgive
your sins." That wasn't it. How did they get sins forgiven in
the Bible? Peter answered that question on the day of Pentecost. They said,
"What can we do to be saved? How can we get this that you all got?" He
laid down the prescription. He told them what to do. He said, "Repent, every one of you towards God, and be
baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ." What for? "The
remission of your sins." There's the
greater works.
Now,
let's just stop here for a minute because brother Branham is giving us the key
here to a life without sin. Jesus never said whose sins you forgive they are
forgive. He said whose sins you remit they are remitted. There is a difference
between remit and forgive.
The word remit means: to lay aside
or desist. To cancel out, or refrain
from doing, to
give relief from. to restore or consign to
a former status or condition and thus to release from the
guilt or penalty of sin or unbelief.
Now
contrast that to the word forgive and what it means. to
stop feeling anger toward (someone who has done something wrong) : to stop
blaming (someone).
Notice
the difference between the two words. to Borrow a common
phrase from brother Branham, but they are two different words and they mean two
different things altogether.
Forgive
means you come to the place where you are willing to forgive, or not be angry
with someone who does things to you even though they keep on doing them. Notice forgiveness has nothing to do with the
person who is doing the wrong. It doesn't change his nature, it only changes
your response to the way you view that person.
In
other words, as brother Vayle used to say, "dog bite me once shame
on dog, but dog bite me twice shame on me". In other words, I can
forgive you but that's not going to change you. That only changes my response
to what you do. I just learn to accept that you are what you are and no one can
change you unless you want to be changed.
So
you will continue doing what you do best until you have died and God comes in
to live your life for you. But to remit
your sin (unbelief) is to do something to you that changes you forever, and
changes the way you live your life. To remit your sin is to do
away with you sin or unbelief altogether. And just saying it won't make it
happen.
Just
because you say it doesn't make it so. Something has to happen to change your
life that you don't want to sin any more. That's the real meaning of the remitting
of sin. You don't do it any more because you can't do it any more.
There's another life living in you and you can't sin.
1 John 3:9 Whosoever
is born of God doth not commit sin; for his seed remaineth in him: and he
cannot sin, because he is born of God.
The
sin question has been canceled out in you. And the word Remit
means: To cancel out. To lay aside altogether, to
desist. And you can not do that until you are
dead and your life is hid together with Christ in God.
John
Now,
the Greek word for Remit that Jesus used was apheimi, which is made up of two Greek
Words, The first "apo", used as a prefix which denotes separation, and it means: to depart and
cessation. Which means to "stop altogether". And the
word main word heimi
which means: to go, or to send away.
So
when Jesus breathed on them and imparted the Holy Ghost to them, he told them
that with receiving the Holy Ghost you now have power to give the same to others, and in doing so it will cause sin (unbelief) to
depart from them.
John 20:22 And
when he had said this, he breathed on them, and
saith unto them, "Receive ye the Holy Ghost":
23 Whose so ever sins ye remit, they are
remitted unto them; and whose soever sins ye
retain, they are retained.
Notice Brother Branham speaks of the works of
Christ and then the greater works making a distinction between
the two. Then he quotes Jesus as
he continues...
QA on the Seals 63-0324M P:91 Before there was an atom, or electrons, or
before there was even cosmic light, electrons, or anything, He was God. He's
the Creator. And that's the only way you can be eternal, is to receive
Eternal Life; that Greek word there, I think, is Zoe. Isn't that right? Zoe, Zoe. And
then that Life God
imparts to you, as the father, your father imparts his life to you through
the marriage vow with mother, and he, by that, imparts the joy of imparting
(Catch me?), of the
imparting life for a son. And that's the way God does: a joy in
imparting His Life to a son. See? And then you become part of Him which
is Zoe, God's Own Life. "I give unto them Eternal Life, raise them up at the last day." That's the only thing... He got
Eternal Life; and that Eternal Life knows its body, and it must have to
come forth. It's impossible for it to lay there.
Path of life 62-0621B P:40 A man might look like a Christian,
impersonate a Christian, or walk like a Christian, or so forth. But unless that germ of life is
there, he cannot rise again. Jesus said, "I come that they
might have Life," Zoe, God's own life in them. And there's...
Everything that had a beginning has an end. It's those things which had not a
beginning that has no end. There's only one thing that never had a beginning;
that was God. And we
become His children, part of Him, then Zoe, God's own
Life, Eternal Life, is imparted to us. And that's the only way that
we can live. And that's the only way that our lost friends out here, even
church members, can ever live again, is because Zoe has been imparted to
them, and we become a part.
So
this takes us to The Spoken word Original Seed 62-0318M P:91
Son of God Seed will bring forth a Son
of God Seed.
In
fact if son of God seed will produce son of God, then we are looking at every
seed that comes off that son of God seed will bear witness to son of God Life. That's
the greatest work, imparting Life.
Let's
look at the actual quote itself from brother Branham's sermon, Spoken word original seed 62-0318M and let's go
back to paragraph 89 and read through
paragraph 91.
P:89 The works that Jesus did, if a man has the Seed of God in him with the Spirit of God
watering that Seed, "the same works that Jesus, was manifested in Jesus", Him being the original Seed of God, His death brings you back
to the original Seed of God, and if the same Spirit that was within Him is in you, then the same
works will be manifested. You don't believe that? All right, let's turn over to
90 What
is it? (Notice he says what is
it? That means he is going to explain to us what John
91 Then the works
will be manifested in Him are the same, for it is the same Seed Word of God. God's Son was His example Seed.
And what His Life was
when the Spirit poured upon Him after His baptism and the Holy Ghost come upon
Him, the very Life that He produced will--that same watering Spirit of the Holy
Ghost will bring forth the same kind of a Life, doing the same thing that He
did; if it's the same Seed. Son of God Seed will bring forth a Son of God Seed.
Now, shame on you women with bobbed hair. Shame on you preachers denying that Truth. Say, "It's
all right; hair has nothing to do with it." But God said it did.
So what we are looking at is the law of Life. All
life is governed by the law of reproduction, which we find in Genesis
1:11,
"every seed will bring forth after it's kind", and as long as you have sown
pure Seed you will produce pure seed life. But when you hybreed Pure seed with another seed, it will hybridize the life in
the Pure seed by mixing it with other seed life and it will produce perverted
life.
That day on Calvary 60-0925 P:54 Now, notice, the greater works was to have the power in the church, not
only to heal the sick by prayer, cast out devils by prayer, but to impart Eternal Life to
believers. The Holy
Ghost was coming and given into the hands of the church to impart life.
Oh, that's what
Now,
the word "impart" means: to convey, to give,
to bestow or to grant. And how can you give
someone something you do not own yourself. So when you receive The Holy Ghost
(Which is Eternal Life) you in fact own it and are expected to give it to
others. That is why the doctrine of receiving the Holy Ghost was taught that
you receive it by the laying on of the hands from one who has it to one who
does not.
Notice
the Greek word for imparted here is metadidomi and it means: to give
over, i.e. share: give, impart, to bestow.
Luke 3:11 He answereth and
saith unto them, He that hath two coats, let him impart to him that hath
none; and he that hath meat, let him do likewise.
That day on Calvary 60-0925 P:55 How much greater is it to say to this sick
woman laying here, "I can pray a prayer of faith," and she'll
be healed. That's a great thing. That's what He was doing then, but said,
"Greater than
this shall you do. I'm going to give you
power, not
only to raise him up for a while, but to give him Eternal Life, which will be
eternal forever." Poor, blind, wretched people, how do you miss that?
Don't you see what the
greater thing is? That's the greatest thing that could ever happen was to impart
Eternal Life to people.
Brother,
that's John 14:12. That's what sister Haddie Wright did. She was given power to have
done whatever she asked for. John
Revelation Chapter One 60-1204M P:56 "He that believeth in Me..." Saint John 14:12, "He that believeth in Me,
the works that I do shall he also. Do the same works, and greater than this..." Because Christ cannot preach the
baptism of the Holy Ghost would be greater. He could not bring it to them,
because the Holy Ghost hadn't yet been given. But when Jesus came and
sacrificed His Life, and the Holy Ghost returned, then
they could impart Eternal
Life to the people. That's the greater. But the signs and
wonders, Jesus plainly said in Mark 16,
"Go ye into all the world, and preach the Gospel to every
creature." How
far? All
the world. How many? Every creature. Long as the Gospel's being preached, these signs shall follow them that believe. And when that becomes a revelation, brother, you're near the
Kingdom then. "On this rock I'll build My church, and the
gates of hell can't prevail against it." Because the man or the woman that's ever been in that
back desert alone like Moses was, and the revelation of God be made manifest to him through the
Holy Ghost, there's nothing can shake him. He's just as sound and
solid as he can be. Satan hates revelation. He don't
like it at all: upsets his plans.
And that is what receiving the Holy Ghost is all about. It's not so you can know more than the next
guy concerning doctrine. It's not to make you smarter, or more knowledgeable
about God. It comes to allow God to live
your life for you. But you have to die first. That is what it's all about. You
die, so that Christ can live again in you. And then when you receive the Holy Ghost then
God expects you to live in such a way that others will be drawn to the life you
live. And you are given power by the law of Life to impart that same Life to
others. But never forget, the power is sovereignly
given. Therefore, Jesus never went about doing just what he wanted to do, but
did only what was pleasing to His father.
Token the 64-0308 P:53 Look, then when we realize and present
the Token, the Life it took for the Token, the Blood speaks for us.
Remember, the covenant Blood was recognized with the Token, and the Word
assures us of the promise. The Token is the sign that the purchase is made
for us. Now, if you're not included in that, well, of course, you'll never
get nothing; you're just walking through a prayer line, walking back out,
walking up to the altar, and looking up, walking back out. But, oh, brother,
when that Token's once placed in your heart, and you know it's the
resurrection of Jesus Christ in you, something's happening. There isn't nothing going to turn you. You know where you belong. Full obedience to the whole
Word of God entitles you to the Token, and nothing else. "Blessed
is he that does all of His Commandments, he might have right to the Tree of
Life." Then when we pray, we must have the Token to
present with our prayers. Now, don't fail to get that. When you pray, you must have the
Token to hold over your prayer; if you're not, you pray until the
Token comes, 'cause you're not promised to receive it. See, you've got to have
this Token first; that's the paying price, your faith to believe it.
Token the 64-0308 P:13 The Life, the
Life that was in the Blood was the Token now. I'll prove it to you, just in a minute by
the Bible. It is the Token that's to come upon each of us to show that we
have been identified with our Sacrifice and have carried out Jehovah's request.
Token the 63-0901M P:89 The blood's not the Token now, the Life is the Token.
The Life could not be there, 'cause it was an animal. The chemistry was the Token.
You'd have to have literal blood applied on the door; but now, it's the Holy
Spirit. We're coming to it just in a moment to prove that. See? It's the Life that is the Token.
Your life is gone, and you are dead, and your life is dead. You are hid in
God through Christ, and sealed in there by the Holy Spirit. The mind that was in Christ is in you, and Christ, and the Bible, and the Word is the same." In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God,
and the Word was God."
Then you, and the Word, and God, and Christ are the same. "And if ye abide in Me
and My word, you ask what you will, and it'll be done." See?
Token the 64-0208 P:73 He expects us
now to display the Token over our faith, to Satan's group, the unbelievers, and
cults, and so forth, that don't believe in it, that we, believing what He has
said of His promises, and that Jesus Christ has raised up from the dead,
showing Himself alive... And that is the badge, the Token of identification, because it's
Christ's own Life in you identifying the Word. It doesn't need
anything else. That's the Token. Without the Token...Shows the fare is paid,
shows that you're a subject for the resurrection, that God, that same power
that raised up Jesus from the grave, you're holding
within yourself as a Token. The Holy Ghost in you is the Token that brings
you from the grave, because the
Token is God, the Holy Spirit, which is Eternal Life, coming from the
Greek word "Zoe," which means "God's own Life," in you. That's the only
thing that paid the price. If that Token isn't there, how are you going to raise?
Token the 64-0208 P:65 Not the Blood chemistry, but the Token, the
Holy Ghost, the Life out of the Blood that comes... What does that Life do? Comes
and confirms what the Token has been purchased for. The Token confirms what
the Blood bought for you. The Blood purchased your redemption. The Token is an evidence of it.
The Blood... He was wounded for our transgressions, bruised for our iniquities, chastisement of our peace was upon Him. With His
stripes we were healed. See? All Blood, Blood, Blood. Then when the Token
come, it shows that you've been identified with that sacrifice. Amen. The
devil can't keep you from it.
Token the 63-0901M P:54 It's yourself gone. You're no more...
You're--reckon yourself dead, and the Token is what lives in you, and it's not your life;
it's Him. Paul said, "The life that I now live..." He lived a different life from what
he once did. "It's
not me, but Christ liveth in me." There is the identified Token that God required. Identified with our--identification with our sacrifice. The
Life of our Saviour in us, the Holy Spirit...
Token the 64-0308 P:61 God once gave a
rainbow sign for a token (I'm closing.), gave a rainbow sign for a token. I've just
got about ten minutes and then have my prayer line. He ever remained true
to that token. Did He? He does yet. All these thousands of
years, He has never once, one time, failed to display it. He was true to that token, shows us that He never will fail to honor His
tokens. I don't care if Jesus don't come for ten thousand years, you have the
Token; He's still got to honor It. No matter how many things changes, and what ever
more, He's got to honor that Token. He said He would. All
right. He
expects us now to display His Token over our God-given faith, to every
unbelieving cult in the nation and in the world, that believes that signs and wonders
don't follow the believers. And be true to this Token, and It shows that
the fare has been paid and we've been accepted for the resurrection, having the
Token Life inside of us.
Token the 63-1128E P:76 Now, when you want Eternal Life, you
receive a Token, showing that the price has been paid. It isn't the Blood,
but it's the Token of the Blood. It's the Life Itself. Amen. Full obedience to the whole Word of God, to God's entire
Word, will entitle you to this Token. How do you do it? Peter said,
on the day of Pentecost, "Repent, every one of you, and be baptized in the Name of Jesus
Christ for the remission of sins, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy
Ghost, the Token. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, to them
that's far off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call."
