Unveiling of God no 53

You believe not because you understand not

September 30, 2018

Brian Kocourek, Pastor

 

This morning we will move on in our study of Br. Branham's sermon The Unveiling of God, and we will read from paragraph no 75. In this paragraph brother Branham is speaking of an incident where he was confronted by a Baptist preacher, and what he was confronted over is what many Baptists who have come into this Message still believe because they have never purged their minds yet of their Baptists mindset.

 

Now, I know that what I say this morning will not set well with some, but please, just hear me out, and hear brother Branham has to say because for the most part, the churches in this Message are more Baptist than they are Message believing.

 

Now, brother Branham tells a story concerning how he was confronted by a Baptist minister. PP. 75 A guy said to me the other day, a little Baptist preacher out there come to me, Brother Green, and he said, "Brother Branham, there's one thing I got against you." Said, "You're trying to make the people..." It was down at the Ramada Inn, when we had the meeting down there. Said, "You're trying to make the people believe in an apostolic age, to live today like they were in the apostolic age." Said, "The apostolic age ceased with the apostles." I said, "It did?" "Yeah." I said, "Who was the spokesman in the apostolic age?" He said, "The twelve apostles in the upper room." I said, "Then Paul was out."

 

Now, I am sure many of the people who have heard this or read it completely missed what he just said here. He said if it was for the twelve apostles only, then Paul missed out on it.

 

And Yet Paul's Epistle to the Romans says in Romans 1:1 Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called to be an apostle, separated unto the gospel of God,

 

Well, sorry Paul, but you aren't called to be an apostle, because our doctrine teaches the apostolic age ended with the apostles, and that was the twelve and so you missed it by a few years.

 

Try telling that to Paul? Try telling that to God? Jesus said, "O fools a slow of heart to believe all that the prophets have spoken."

 

Again in 1 Corinthians 1:1 we read what Paul wrote... "Paul, called to be an apostle of Jesus Christ (How?) through the will of God,..."

 

So try telling God His will is wrong when He called Paul to be an apostle, because it doesn't fit with your doctrine.

 

"Paul, called to be an Apostle of our Lord Jesus Christ, by the will of God".

 

Now back to reading from The  Unveiling of God and we'll continue reading paragraph 75 where brother Branham continues with his story saying, ... "I said, "The spokesman was Peter, and Peter said on the day of Pentecost, when they seen all this going on, and the Holy Ghost working, he said, 'The promise is unto you, and to your children, and to them that's far off, even as many as the Lord our God shall ever call.'

 

Now, let's just go to the Scripture and read for ourselves what he's saying here.

 

Acts 2:36  Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.

 

You know people just read that and never stop to consider what they just read. If God made Jesus both Lord and Christ, then number 1) he wasn't Lord and Christ until God made him that, right? And number 2) If God made Him both Lord and Christ, then how did He do that?  Because the Bible is very emphatic throughout the old testament that there is only one Lord. Moses Taught it, Jesus taught it, Paul taught it etc. And the very first commandment  is Though shalt have no other Lord.

 

First we hear Moses proclaim to Israel in Deuteronomy 6:4 Hear, O Israel: The LORD our God is one LORD:

 

And then we hear Jesus in the Gospel of Mark tell us the first commandment is that there i only One Lord.  Mark 12:29 And Jesus answered him, The first of all the commandments is, Hear, O Israel; The Lord our God is one Lord:

 

And then we hear the Apostle Paul confirm this in Ephesians 4:5 One Lord, one faith, one baptism,

 

And finally in our Age we have a vindicated prophet of God who taught us the same thing.

 

Jesus Christ the same 55-0806 P:15 Now, sometimes today it's been said amongst many believers, they say about certain things, "Oh, that's against my faith. Our faith don't teach that." There's only really one faith; the Bible said so. One Lord, one faith, one baptism, one God, and there's one faith and that is the faith of the Lord Jesus Christ.

 

Palmerworm locust caterpillar 59-0823 P:47 The people say, "Well, that's against my faith." There's only one faith, one Lord, one faith, and one baptism. You might have a faith, but we want The faith. "Earnestly contend," that's "argue for it, standing up for."... earnestly contend for the faith that was once delivered to the saints. When were they called saints? When they were sanctified. The Holy Spirit sanctified them; they were called saints. Now, Jude says, a brother, foster brother of Jesus, "I want you to earnestly contend for the faith that was once delivered to the saints." Don't never let that faith drop. And the faith of the saints was not in creeds, not in denominations, not in church buildings, not in associations, but it was in the Presence of the living God. They had faith to heal the sick, cast out devils, do miracles. All the great promises that Jesus made, that first church held onto that. It was the lifeline.

 

Notice he said that the Faith of the saints was not a creed, or a doctrine, or in some church, but it was in the Presence of the living God. That is what he said the Faith is that they earnestly contended for, and that means they contended for the presence, the Parousia of the Living God. I just thought I would throw that in, because he said it.

 

Church Age Book  Chapter 3 - The Ephesian Church Age P:5 Though scholars may tell you the apostolic age is over, don't you believe it. Such a statement is wrong on two counts. First of all, it is wrong to suppose there aren't any more apostles, just because the original twelve are dead. An apostle means a `sent one'; and there are many sent ones today, but they are called missionaries. As long as men are being called and sent forth with the Word of Life there is an apostolic age going on. Secondly, they refer to an age of `manifested Holy Ghost power' as being over since the Bible has been completed. That is untrue. There is not even one Scripture that suggests that, but many conclusively state otherwise. Here is our proof that both of these charges are false. Acts 2:38,39. "Then Peter said unto them, Repent, and be baptized every one of you in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of sins, and ye shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. For the promise is unto you, and to your children, and to all that are afar off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call." The promise of power with which the apostles were endued at Pentecost is to "you (Jews), and to your children (Jews), and to all that are afar off (Gentiles), and to as many as the Lord our God shall call (both Jew and Gentile)". Until He stops calling, the Pentecostal message and power will NOT CEASE.

 

Anointed ones at end time 65-0725M P:186 Now, notice. That was Jesus speaking. Here come Paul right behind Him and said, "Now, in the last days there will come religious people (See?), having a form of godliness, and lead silly women, led away with all kinds of worldly lust (Then they wonder, say, "Why do you pick on them women?" Oh, for goodness... They just don't even see it.)--lead silly women, laden with divers lust (away from things like--that's of the...?... See?)... And as Jannes and Jambres (Matthew 24:24, false christs, false anointed, doing signs and wonders to deceive the elected)--now as Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so will these reprobates..." Reprobate mind concerning the faith, not a faith, the Faith. One faith, one Lord, one...?... You can't have one faith without believing in one Lord. You can't have two baptisms, not one for the Father, and Son, and Holy Ghost. There's one baptism, Jesus Christ. That's right. See? False baptism...

 

Now, don't tell me that you can have The Faith believing in Two Lords. Can't be done. God's vindicated prophet said so. One Lord One Faith, that is what Paul taught. That is what William Branham taught. That is what Moses and Jesus taught. 

 

So then how could God break that Word, His own Word, His own Commandment, by making two? You see, that is what some people think that now there are two Lords because the Bible says in  Acts 2:36  Therefore let all the house of Israel know assuredly, that God hath made that same Jesus, whom ye have crucified, both Lord and Christ.

 

As I stated earlier, people just read that and never stop to consider what they read here. If God made Jesus both Lord and Christ, then number 1) he wasn't Lord and Christ until God made him that, right? And number 2) If God made Him both Lord and Christ, then how did He do that?  Because we've just proven by the Bible that  throughout the old testament and New there is only one Lord. We showed you where Moses taught it, and in fact it was the first commandment, and Moses said in Deuteronomy 4:2  Ye shall not add unto the word which I command you, neither shall ye diminish ought from it, that ye may keep the commandments of the LORD your God which I command you.

 

And we found out that Jesus taught One Lord is the first commandment, and he said in Revelations 22:18 For I testify unto every man that heareth the words of the prophecy of this book, If any man shall add unto these things, God shall add unto him the plagues that are written in this book: 19  And if any man shall take away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God shall take away his part out of the book of life, and out of the holy city, and from the things which are written in this book.

 

So if Moses, Jesus Paul and William Branham taught that there is only One Lord, then when we read the book of Acts we have to keep that in mind when we read that God made Jesus both Lord and Christ. Right?

 

So then we should ask the question, God did God make Jesus Lord and keep the statute there is only One Lord? And we get our answer in the same verse. God hath made this same Jesus both Lord and Christ. So if we do not know How God could make Jesus Lord and still remain there is only One Lord, then we have to answer by asking the question, How did God make him Christ?

 

Well, the word "Christ" we know means "anointed". So Therefore God anointed Jesus. And that is what we also read in the Book of Acts as well. Acts 10:38 How God anointed Jesus of Nazareth with the Holy Ghost and with power: who went about doing good, and healing all that were oppressed of the devil; for God was with him.

 

Look, he tells you right there how Go anointed Jesus with the Holy Ghost, because it says, and God was with him. And we know that when the Holy Ghost came upon Jesus and remained upon him, that is when God and man became one. That is when God who is the Only Lord, entered into the vessel of His son, and now that vessel not only became the anointed, the Christ, but also the One Lord, because God who is the only One Lord was in Him. Jesus said in John 14 to Philip, "When you see me you see the father, and why saith show us the Father. Don't you know my Father dwelleth in me?"

 

Look, John 14 is so wonderful and has so many promises for us that it is on par with Romans 8. Let's just begin reading at verse 8  Philip saith unto him, Lord, shew us the Father, and it sufficeth us. 9  Jesus saith unto him, Have I been so long time with you, and yet hast thou not known me, Philip? he that hath seen me hath seen the Father; and how sayest thou then, Shew us the Father? 10  Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that dwelleth in me, he doeth the works. 11  Believe me that I am in the Father, and the Father in me: or else believe me for the very works' sake. 12  Verily, verily, I say unto you, He that believeth on me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

 

And brother Branham taught us here that when Jesus says He that believeth on me, brother Branham says you cannot believe until you are filled with the same spirit that was in Jesus.

 

And that is also what Jesus said in John 3:15 That “whosoever believeth” him should not perish, but have eternal life.

 

And in  John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that “whosoever believeth” him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

 

And again in John 3:36 “He that believeth” the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

 

And in John 6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, “He that believeth” me hath everlasting life.

 

And then we hear John also teach this in 1 John 5:10 “He that believeththe Son of God hath the witness in himself: he that believeth not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.

 

And again in 1 John 5:1 “Whosoever believeth” that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.

 

So as brother Branham said, this is not a promise to the make believer, or the person who doesn't understand what he believes. This is a promise to the real believer who is filled with the same Spirit that filled Jesus.

 

Seed shall not be heir 65-0429B P:25 "Now, if you'll take Saint John 5:24, listen to this, "He that heareth My Word, and believeth on Him that sent Me, has Everlasting Life. "Now, how would that be so much different from many of our theologies? Now, I could walk out here and say to a drunkard, "Do you believe?""Sure."A man with another man's wife, "Do you believe?""Sure.""Did you set in the meeting last night to hear the Word?""Sure.""You believe It?""Sure." He's just saying that. But the original interpretation of this Word, "he that understandeth My Word, and will believe on Him that sent Me...He that understands," that is to who It's made known to. Jesus said, "No man can come to Me except My Father has drawed him. And all that My Father hath given Me, they will come. My sheep, My doves, hear My Voice. A stranger they will not follow." And what is the Voice of God? Is the Word of God. What's any man's voice but his word? It's the Word of God; they'll hear the Word of God

 

A couple weeks ago we showed you that just saying you believe is not what the promise is for. It is those who understandeth as brother Branham said, to them is the promise. And there are 19 promises to the believer or those who understand. Because remember, we are told by the Apostle Paul that no man can understand the things of God unless the Spirit of God is in them.

 

And that is why the believer will not be ashamed of confounded as well.

 

Seed not heir with shuck - 65-02180. There is no judgment to the royal, spiritual, predestinated Seed of Abraham, for they are predestinated to Eternal Life. They have accepted God's provided Sacrifice, and that Sacrifice which is Christ, the Word. "And there is therefore now no condemnation (St. John 5:24, if you want the Scripture)... There is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus (Romans 8:1)... walk not after the flesh, but the Spirit." And Romans 5:24, "He that heareth My Word (the word there is 'understandeth.' Any drunkard anything else can hear it and walk away.)... But he that heareth My Word (understands My Wordand believeth on Him that sent Me hath Everlasting Life and shall not come into the judgment, but's passed from death unto Life." Yes, sir. He that this great mystery of the God made known, understandhow that God was in Christ reconciling Himself to the world, how that He and the Father were One, how that the great mysteries of the fulfilling of God taking and bringing Hisself, manifested in the age of human beings, and in the strain of human beings, and in the company of human beings, to make His Word manifested in the day in the eastern rising of the sun and to do the same thing as the sun sets in the west, to make Hisself manifested in a Bride church, the Word made manifest. See? It will to... "He that understandeth (that is, to know), that's been revealed to him of Him that sent Me, has Everlasting Life and will not come into the judgment, but's passed from death unto Life."  

 

That is why when we see the list of scriptures that refers to the believer, it is referring to those who actually understand the Message. Anyone can say they believe, even the devil believes and trembles, but to understand is different, because if you truly understand then you will have recognized what it is all about and then you act upon what you recognize. And when you do, then the word becomes alive in you, and you and the Word become one.

 

Therefore, Below I've underlined the Scriptural promises to all believers which we know are those people filled with the spirit of God and understand the Word of God.

 

1. Mark 16:16 He that believeth”(understandeth) and is baptized shall be saved; but he that believeth (understandeth) not shall be damned.

 

2. John 3:15 That “whosoever believeth” (understandeth) him should not perish, but have eternal life.

 

3. John 3:16 For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that “whosoever believeth” (understandeth) him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

 

4. John 3:18 He that believeth” (understandeth) him is not condemned: but he that believeth (understandeth) not is condemned already, because he hath not believed in the name of the only begotten Son of God.

5. John 3:36 “He that believeth” (understandeth) the Son hath everlasting life: and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life; but the wrath of God abideth on him.

 

6. John 6:35 And Jesus said unto them, I am the bread of life: he that cometh to me shall never hunger; and “he that believeth” (understandeth) me shall never thirst.

 

7. John 6:47 Verily, verily, I say unto you, “He that believeth” (understandeth) me hath everlasting life.

 

8. John 7:38 “He that believeth” (understandeth) me, as the scripture hath said, out of his belly shall flow rivers of living water.

 

9. John 11:25 Jesus said unto her, I am the resurrection, and the life: “he that believeth” (understandeth) me, though he were dead, yet shall he live:

 

10. John 12:44 Jesus cried and said, “He that believeth” (understandeth) me, believeth not on me, but on him that sent me.

 

11. John 12:46 I am come a light into the world, that “whosoever believeth” (understandeth)  me should not abide in darkness.

 

12. John 14:12 Verily, verily, I say unto you, “He that believeth” (understandeth) me, the works that I do shall he do also; and greater works than these shall he do; because I go unto my Father.

 

13. Acts 10:43 To him give all the prophets witness, that through his name “whosoever believeth” (understandeth) him shall receive remission of sins.

 

14. Romans 9:33 As it is written, Behold, I lay in Sion a stumblingstone and rock of offence: and “whosoever believeth” (understandeth) him shall not be ashamed.

 

15. Romans 10:11 For the scripture saith, “Whosoever believeth” (understandeth) him shall not be ashamed.

 

16. 1 Peter 2:6 Wherefore also it is contained in the scripture, Behold, I lay in Sion a chief corner stone, elect, precious: and “he that believeth” (understandeth) (ὁ πιστεύων) on him shall not be confounded.

 

17. 1 John 5:1 “Whosoever believeth” (understandeth) (ὁ πιστεύων) that Jesus is the Christ is born of God: and every one that loveth him that begat loveth him also that is begotten of him.

 

18. 1 John 5:5 Who is he that overcometh the world, but “he that believeth” (understandeth) that Jesus is the Son of God?

 

19. 1 John 5:10 “He that believeth (understandeth) the Son of God hath (echoes) the witness in himself: he that believeth (understandeth) not God hath made him a liar; because he believeth not the record that God gave of his Son.

 

God identified by characteristics 64-0311 P:22 John 14:12, "He that believeth," Jesus said, "on Me, the works that I do shall he do also." Now, look, "He that believeth on Me (a true believer), the works that I do shall he do also." Notice. In other words, like this, "He that believeth on Me, shall be identified by My characteristic, the works." Now, that's what He did. He said, "If I don't do the Father's works, then don't believe Me." And the Father spoke to the prophets, and that was their characteristic, identification. So was it with Jesus. And promised it to him that believeth, "My characteristics shall do in him just as it did in Me. And if I do not the works of My Father, then don't believe Me. But if I do the works, and you can't believe Me, then believe the works, because it's spoken of; it must be."He said, "Search the Scriptures, for in Them you think you have Eternal Life, and They are They that tell you Who I am." That was Jesus (See?), God manifested, showing Himself. "They testify Who I am." That makes Hebrews 1:1 now, "God in sundry times spake by the prophets," clearly identifying the characteristic now of the resurrection of His Son. God spoke by the prophets then, through His Son now. The unchangeable God, the same characteristic, "The works that I do, shall you do also." God's known by His identified characteristic. That's how you know. You say, "Well, I tell you this; we sing this, we do this, and we do." That's not what I'm talking about. I'm talking about the Word made manifest and identifying this Life, the characteristics of the promised Word for the age. Them Pharisees knowed that Bible as good as anybody, better than any of us clergymen know ours today. They had to live by It. Their great-great-grandfather were priests. They studied It, day and night, and they failed to see that identified Word.

 

That is why John 14:12 is so important, because it is to only those who understandeth, he that believeth is he that understandeth. How do you do the works of Christ? because you know and understand what the works of Christ are. And you know to wait until God shows you then you see it in the Word and then you step into it. Now, the trouble with so many young people today is that they do not study the Word of God. And therefore when a scene open up before them right from the Bible, because they do not know the Bible they do not see that this is God's vision to you to step into. And so the scene passes on by without being acted upon.

 

Brother Branham said you know the will of God because you know the Word of God. And when you see something in your life, and your mind goes right to the same scene in the Bible, and so you have identified it in the Word, then all you have to do is to step into it the same as what took place in the Bible and that Word will materialize right before you and you and the Word are one.

 

Perseverant - 62-0719E 31. Everything the Christian can depend on is the unseen, the promise of God. And we look at something that we don't See with our eyes. By the way, if you See it with your eyes, you don't See it. "See it" means "to understand it." You look at anything right straight and say, "I don't See it," you mean you don't understand it. When you understand... Something that's got a understanding that God has made His promise, and something has struck you that you believe it, that's understanding that God's promise is to you. Then something's going to happen. Then I don't care, nobody in the world can talk you out of it. You're on your road then. Nothing's going to stop you.

 

Awakening Jesus 63-0117 P:70 You say, "How can this be, Brother Branham?" St. John the  14th chapter, 12th verse, said that He'd prove it. See, "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also."You say, "I wish you could prove and show me that He is just as He always was. If you could prove it to me..."Well, here's where He challenged the proof. "He that believeth on me, the things that I do..." In other words, you will be an amateur Messiah, Messiahette. That's exactly right. For if His life be in you; it ain't you; it's Him. See? And you are ordained to carry His work on. "He that believeth on Me, I'll prove that I am Messiah. And He that believeth on me will do the same thing." Now, that... He can't lie and be what you think He is, and what I know He is, and you believe He is too. See?

 

Putting on the whole Armor of God 62-0607 P:78 Now. He said what He would do? He would come and vindicate Himself in His church, and they would vindicate His resurrection by His works. See? Yeah, John 14:12. I think that's right: yeah, John 14:12. Jesus said, "He that believeth in Me, the works that I do shall he do also."See, what is it? Now, you say, "I believe." That's just a word. But if you truly believe, that's this. If He is the Word, then you got to believe all the Word. "He that believeth all of Me (just don't believe part of it, believe all of Me), then the works that I do shall he do also," for He is still the same Word. So if it's the same Word, it would do the same works. If this Holy Spirit that's here today, if it isn't the same Word that it was in the beginning... If It is, It'll do the same works. That's the reason Jesus said, "He that believeth in Me, the works that I do shall he do also." Oh, I'd like to stay on that a little while, but getting too late. Why? The same Word, same works (See?), 'cause Jesus was God's works, we know that.

 

Presence of God unrecognized 64-0618 P:82 Jesus said in Saint John the 14th chapter, the 12th verse, He said, "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also." Not he that make-believeth, but, "he that believeth on Me." Is that true, my minister brothers? That's true. A... How many Bible readers knows that's true? Heavens and earth will pass away, but His Words can't fail. He promised that.

 

And really, what is a make believer? It is a person who does not understand but acts like he does. and every make believer is a person who has not been born again. Because if they were born again they would understand and therefore they would believe.

 

God identifying Himself 64-0320 P:34 See, there's no mistake about it. His life... "He that believeth on Me, (He that understandeth me) the works that I do shall he do also." See, that identifies the characteristics, same thing He said. "If My character doesn't identify Myself, God in Him," then don't believe Him. Now, He also said that He would be identified in that. Then that, if it doesn't identify Him, then He isn't what He says. And today if Christ doesn't identify Hisself, the characteristic of Christ identify us as being of Christ, believing the Word... Jesus was the Word, so He had to believe the Word. And how can we say that we are of Christ and deny any Word in that Bible? The Holy Spirit of Christ is God in you. And it'll punctuate every promise with a "Amen."The Bible said, "These signs shall follow them that believe."The Spirit of God said, "Amen." See? One of them don't--said, "No, that was for another age. That was for disciples only.""Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature. He (anywhere, all the world) that believeth, these signs shall follow him," same thing, same yesterday, today, and forever, the characteristic being identified. That makes Hebrews 1:1, "God of sundry times, speaking to the fathers by the prophets," identifying Christ resurrected today by the same characteristic that He did in sundry times.

 

In other words, John 14:12 is only manifested in the lives of those who understand the Word of God. Because they have the Holy Ghost and they know what Jesus did and thus they do the same things that he did. You can't do what he did if you do not know what he did. But we hear, then recognize and then act upon what we heard because we understand what we heard.

 

You can't react to what you do not understand. Most people just freeze up in fear. Because fear comes via not knowing. If you know then why would you fear.

 

God identifying Himself 64-0320 P:33 The pouring out of the Holy Ghost in the last days upon the common people has identified God's characteristic with the people. He promised it. It's the Word. He said He'd do it. Nobody can take it back. He said He would do it. So all these things that He's promised, that's what He does. It identifies His characteristic. Yes, sir. "Don't believe it, don't believe My claims, if My characteristic isn't that of God."Now, notice in John 14:12, "He that believeth on Me," He said, "has My identification, My characteristic. He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also." That identifies that the character of Christ is in him, displaying the characteristics of Him.

Absolute an 63-0127 P:40 And Jesus said in John 14:12, "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also." It's an absolute fact that Christ promised that. That's His Word. And we've got to believe that. Said, "He..." In St. John the 5th chapter and the 24th verse, "He that heareth My Words--My Words and believeth on Him that sent Me has Everlasting Life, and shall not come into the judgment, but's passed from death unto Life." That's absolute. That's it. Now, not him that maketh-believe, but he that believeth. See? Now, we've got to have an absolute, and He is that Absolute, and He and His Word are the same. We can't separate them.

 

The make believer will never get anything from God because he doesn't really believe because he really does not understand.

 

Absolute the 62-1230M P:66 Then when we know that our actions is exactly with the Word, we know our teaching is perfect with the Word, adding nothing or taking nothing, just the Word; and we see the same results that others who anchored to the same Word living up in our life, then your anchor holds. The Life of Christ being reproduced in almost an incarnate way through you as it was in Christ, because it was God in Christ reconciling the world to Himself. And you see God in yourself holding that same keel on the Word, just exactly the way Jesus did, and you see His Life..."The works that I do shall you do also. He that believeth... (Not him that maketh believe, he that thinks he believes, but he that believeth) He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he also." Why? He's anchored to the same Rock. What was the Rock? The Word, always. You're anchored there.

 

Jesus Christ the same 62-0718 P:90 When He was in Christ, and He's in His church now... Now, when He was in Christ, He was just in one place. That's the reason that Jesus said, "The work... He..." Saint John 14:12, "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also." Is that right? The works... "He that believeth," because why? The Word's in Him. See? "He that believeth on Me, the works that I... More than this..."

 

Uncertain sound 62-0714 P:107 Jesus said, "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he also." Nothing uncertain about that. (and what does the word uncertain mean? It means you are not sure, because you do not know, it is unclear to you, it is unknown to you)..."These signs shall follow them that believe." That's right. "He that believeth on Me, though he were dead yet shall he live, and whosoever liveth and believeth in Me shall never die." Nothing uncertain about that. Resurrection is sure. Right."He that eats My flesh and drinks My Blood has Everlasting Life, and I'll raise him up at the last day. But he that eats and drinks It unworthily, eats and drinks damnation to himself, not discerning the Lord's Body." No uncertainty about any of it.

 

Uncertain sound 62-0714 P:91 Listen. Jesus said, the Bible, Christ, in John 14:12, "He that believeth on Me (not make-believeth), but... he that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he also..." Shall, not perhaps, will, ought to. He shall do it. Nothing uncertain about that. He said they shall. What kind of works did He do? What kind of works did He show? What was He called by? A devil for doing it. "If they call the Master of the house Beelzebub, how much more will they call them of His disciples?" No uncertainty, He said, "he that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also." Nothing uncertain...Again, He said in Saint John, "If ye abide in Me, and My Word abide in you, then ask what you may, and it'll be done for you." Not no uncertain, "It shall be given you. It shall be done: Nothing uncertain..

 

Patriarch Abraham the - 64-0207 31.  He said, "If ye abide in Me and My word's in you, ask what you will and it shall be given to you." What was it? The Word, Christ, that's in your heart. "If ye abide in Me, My words abide in you, then you've conquered everything, 'cause I conquered it for you. If ye abide in Me (if you can understand Me), if you can abide in Me, he that believeth Me, that receiveth Me (not just make-belief, but can receive), he that heareth My Words (understandeth My Word), and believeth on Him that sent Me has Everlasting Life and shall not come into temptation--or condemnation, but has passed from death unto Life." There He is, the mighty Conqueror.
