22-1104A_THE SPOKEN WORD IS THE ORIGINAL SEED PT.13 (THE HARVEST)
Gen 1:1 In the beginning God created the heaven and the earth.
Gen 1:2 And the earth was without form, and void; and darkness was upon the face of the deep. And the Spirit of God moved upon the face of the waters.
Gen 1:3 And God said, Let there be light: and there was light.
Gen 1:4 And God saw the light, that it was good: and God divided the light from the darkness.
Gen 1:5 And God called the light Day, and the darkness he called Night. And the evening and the morning were the first day.
Gen 1:6 And God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters, and let it divide the waters from the waters.
Gen 1:7 And God made the firmament, and divided the waters which were under the firmament from the waters which were above the firmament: and it was so.
Gen 1:8 And God called the firmament Heaven. And the evening and the morning were the second day.
Gen 1:9 And God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place, and let the dry land appear: and it was so.
Gen 1:10 And God called the dry land Earth; and the gathering together of the waters called he Seas: and God saw that it was good.
Gen 1:11 And God said, Let the earth bring forth grass, the herb yielding seed, and the fruit tree yielding fruit after his kind, whose seed is in itself, upon the earth: and it was so.
Gen 1:12 And the earth brought forth grass, and herb yielding seed after his kind, and the tree yielding fruit, whose seed was in itself, after his kind: and God saw that it was good.
Luk 8:5 A sower went out to sow his seed: and as he sowed, some fell by the way side; and it was trodden down, and the fowls of the air devoured it.
Luk 8:6 And some fell upon a rock; and as soon as it was sprung up, it withered away, because it lacked moisture.
Luk 8:7 And some fell among thorns; and the thorns sprang up with it, and choked it.
Luk 8:8 And other fell on good ground, and sprang up, and bare fruit an hundredfold. And when he had said these things, he cried, He that hath ears to hear, let him hear.
Luk 8:9 And his disciples asked him, saying, What might this parable be?
Luk 8:10 And he said, Unto you it is given to know the mysteries of the kingdom of God: but to others in parables; that seeing they might not see, and hearing they might not understand.
Luk 8:11 Now the parable is this: The seed is the word of God.
Luk 8:12 Those by the way side are they that hear; then cometh the devil, and taketh away the word out of their hearts, lest they should believe and be saved.
Luk 8:13 They on the rock are they, which, when they hear, receive the word with joy; and these have no root, which for a while believe, and in time of temptation fall away.
Luk 8:14 And that which fell among thorns are they, which, when they have heard, go forth, and are choked with cares and riches and pleasures of this life, and bring no fruit to perfection.
Luk 8:15 But that on the good ground are they, which in an honest and good heart, having heard the word, keep it, and bring forth fruit with patience.
Mat 13:24 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is likened unto a man which sowed good seed in his field:
Mat 13:25 But while men slept, his enemy came and sowed tares among the wheat, and went his way.
Mat 13:26 But when the blade was sprung up, and brought forth fruit, then appeared the tares also.
Mat 13:27 So the servants of the householder came and said unto him, Sir, didst not thou sow good seed in thy field? from whence then hath it tares?
Mat 13:28 He said unto them, An enemy hath done this. The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up?
Mat 13:29 But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them.
Mat 13:30 Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.
Mat 13:31 Another parable put he forth unto them, saying, The kingdom of heaven is like to a grain of mustard seed, which a man took, and sowed in his field:
Mat 13:32 Which indeed is the least of all seeds: but when it is grown, it is the greatest among herbs, and becometh a tree, so that the birds of the air come and lodge in the branches thereof.
Mat 13:33 Another parable spake he unto them; The kingdom of heaven is like unto leaven, which a woman took, and hid in three measures of meal, till the whole was leavened.
Mat 13:34 All these things spake Jesus unto the multitude in parables; and without a parable spake he not unto them:
Mat 13:35 That it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the prophet, saying, I will open my mouth in parables; I will utter things which have been kept secret from the foundation of the world.
Mat 13:36 Then Jesus sent the multitude away, and went into the house: and his disciples came unto him, saying, Declare unto us the parable of the tares of the field.
Mat 13:37 He answered and said unto them, He that soweth the good seed is the Son of man;
Mat 13:38 The field is the world; the good seed are the children of the kingdom; but the tares are the children of the wicked one;
Mat 13:39 The enemy that sowed them is the devil; the harvest is the end of the world; and the reapers are the angels.
Mat 13:40 As therefore the tares are gathered and burned in the fire; so shall it be in the end of this world.
*BEFORE THE FOUNDATION OF THE WORLD... THE SOVEREIGN GOD HAS TO MAKE A WAY TO REDEEM HIS CHILDREN
THE.SPOKEN.WORD.IS.THE.ORIGINAL.SEED_ JEFF.IN
V-3 N-1 SUNDAY_ 62-0318
41-1 Who did it? God. When did He do it? Before the foundation of the world. Then if we come in a illegitimate birth through Eve's corruption,
making us all her children and subject to death, then the sovereign God has to
make a way to redeem His children, "And all the
Father hath given Me will come to Me. And no man can come unless My Father
draws him." Oh, my. Now,
where's your great big thing you done? You
never done nothing. You ought
to be ashamed. God, Who done all things... The wheel's a working just right.
Someone come the other
day, said somebody had said something bad about me and--and accused me of
something that was wrong. And I said, "Oh forget it."
Said, "How can
you take it like that? That involves your family. That..."
I said, "Oh,
my." I said, "That
was predestinated before the foundation of the world to give me a trial. I
said, "Why, my, my, my. Sure, so that's all right."
Said, "How do you
do it?"
I said, "If I
looked right down this way, I'd be falling all the time."
*WHEN YOU DEFY THE WORD, YOU DEFY GOD.
THE.SPOKEN.WORD.IS.THE.ORIGINAL.SEED_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-1 SUNDAY_ 62-0318
42-1 All right. Predestinated us
now unto the adoption... Now, do you believe we were predestinated? Now, was Jesus
predestinated? He
was the Lamb of God already slain before there was a light, before there was a
meteor, before there was a molecule, atom, anything. He was the Son of
God slain. Oh, the greatness of God. Then these little peanut brains out of
some little manufactured supernatural incubator over here tries to debate that
and say it's not right. That's a shame.
Who are you? Even some of them saying there is no hell, and you're setting on a pot of it every day: eight thousand miles thick just below you, volcanic, and then look up and defy God and His Word. When you defy the Word, you defy God. Sure. Oh, my, how great Thou art, Lord. How thankful we should be.
*BELIEVERS, THE WORD, AND THE SPIRIT ARE ABSOLUTELY ONE.
THE.SPOKEN.WORD.IS.THE.ORIGINAL.SEED_ JEFF.IN
V-3 N-1 SUNDAY_ 62-0318
42-3 All right. So believers of the
Word and Spirit must be One. You get it? Believers, the Word, and the Spirit are
absolutely One. You don't do your own thinking; you don't use your own mind. Isn't
that wonderful? The mind that's in
Christ is in you. See? The mind's in Christ in you will take the Word just like He
did, 'cause He was the Word. And
the mind of Christ in you, you are the Word. You're God's living Word, representatives of
Him here on earth (That's right.), continuing the work. The church should be that way.
And when so, the Bible is manifested again like in the early days of the disciples, just like the disciples. The Bible is living again in you.
*AND I BELIEVE THAT CHRIST HAS A CHURCH, AND THE CHURCH IS THE FIELD
All right, why then has the revival fires let up? Now, I am, got to call names. I won't do it after this, 'less God tells me to. But I've got to call names. I've got to say things that I don't want to say, but in order to make this clear... You can see now where I'm getting to, the reason I've done what I have done. I believe this is the Word. And I believe that Christ has a church, and the church is the field (We'll get to it after while.), and you've got to get the Word in the field before the Spirit can ever do anything. See?
*WHY THEN HAS THE REVIVAL FIRES LET UP?
THE.SPOKEN.WORD.IS.THE.ORIGINAL.SEED_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-1 SUNDAY_ 62-0318
43-3 Why
then has the revival fires let up? You don't hear very much more of
Billy Graham, like great evangelists. Oral Roberts is not burning the country
like he used to. My meetings is not even heard of. There's just three. What's
the matter?
Now, we're going to get some real deep teaching. I'm going to have to just use it now, and if this tape should fall in the hands of Billy Graham, Oral Roberts, I want you to know, my brethren, that I'm not disregarding you; I'm taking myself, if you notice, in there as your fellow brother in the Gospel. And I think after this you'll have a better understanding, brethren, of why I have did what I've done. And I hope that I find grace in the sight of God and before you, in being honest and truthful to tell you the reason why.
*WE ARE NEAR THE HARVEST TIME. NOW, THE SEEDS HAS BEEN PLANTED.
THE.SPOKEN.WORD.IS.THE.ORIGINAL.SEED_
JEFF.IN V-3 N-1 SUNDAY_
62-0318
43-4 Now, Billy Graham... The world was a-burning here
not long ago with Billy Graham. You
very seldom here of it now. He's still going, but what's the matter? Oral Roberts, why, just
burning the earth up: dying down. Tommy
Osborn, all of them are good godly men. What's a-happened? Believing
that God called me for a ministry, what's happened to mine? Now, here's
going to answer some questions. What's happened?
You say, "Brother Branham, yours is deadest of all of them." That--that's true. That is right. Billy Graham's more heard of than I am, and Billy's more heard of than Oral. Oral's more heard of in one day than I am in six months. Tommy Osborn, Tommy Hicks, any of those godly men, they're more heard of. So as far as that turns, mine's farther away than all of them. What's happened? "Brother Branham, you saying that--that you was telling us here now that you actually believe the Word and everything, well what's happened to you then? What taken place?" That's what we want to know. That's what we want to know.
THE.SPOKEN.WORD.IS.THE.ORIGINAL.SEED_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-1 SUNDAY_ 62-0318
44-1 Now, put her down in your mind now. Pull down the umbrella, and shake the rain
off, and open up your heart just a minute, and listen. Remember the Bible
said in Genesis the first chapter we read to base our thought for
the day, is
every seed after its kind. It'll have to bring forth after its kind. That's
right. Every seed will have to bring... Remember, the earth is full of seeds
and that the rain makes it bring forth after its kind.
I believe it is near the harvest time. Don't you believe it? You all agree with that. We are near the harvest time. Now, the seeds has been planted. That's what's the matter with us. The seeds has been planted. Oh, God, I wish you could see what passed before me then. The seeds has been planted. Remember, there's a planting time; then a harvest time. They know they said so.
*THERE HAS BEEN THREE DIFFERENT KINDS OF SEEDS PLANTED
THE.SPOKEN.WORD.IS.THE.ORIGINAL.SEED_
JEFF.IN V-3 N-1 SUNDAY_
62-0318
44-3 All right. Now, there has been
three different kinds of seeds planted: A denominational: Billy Graham; he was a head planter. Oral Roberts for
the Pentecostal... Pentecostal seed's been planted. (I'm talking about
organization now.) And then the Word's been planted. Now, you'll have to understand, folks. I ain't saying
this no more 'less God tells me. I want you to get this good and
clear. Three seeds has been planted. That's the reason the planting's just about over (See?), all
over. Seeds
must be planted before the rain falls (That right?) or otherwise the Spirit.
Now, you're going to disagree there, but hold on just a minute. See?
Seeds must be planted and then the rain falls to water the seed. Is that right? Now, I want... Is there anybody in here that understands Hebrew, knows Hebrew words? All right, you look it up if you want to.
*THE WORD OF GOD HAS BEEN PLANTED UNADULTERATED AWAY FROM ANY OF THOSE ORGANIZATIONS.
THE.SPOKEN.WORD.IS.THE.ORIGINAL.SEED_ JEFF.IN
V-3 N-1 SUNDAY_ 62-0318
45-3 I believe that it is near the
harvest time. The seeds have been planted. Denominational
seed of the churches such as the Evangelicals, like Baptist, and
Presbyterian, Lutheran. And the Pentecostal seeds has been planted into the
Pentecostal organization, by great men like Oral Roberts, Tommy Hicks, and
Tommy Osborn, great men of God. See? And I believe that the Word of God has been planted
unadulterated away from any of those organizations. That's what's the matter. See?
The seed must have... The seed plant must have seed water before it can grow. It must have water to fall before the seed that's been planted can grow.
46-1 Now, watch.
Now, remember the word "m-o-u-r-e-h,
moureh," means "teaching, the former rain." It says "the moureh rain, the teaching
rain," teaching rain went forth.
Billy Graham has struck the world. The Pentecostals struck the world, and the Word has struck the world. Now, what's the matter now? She's now waiting for the latter rain. That's when she produces her fruits. Oh, I hope you get it.
*THEN THE KIND OF SEED YOU HAVE PLANTED IN YOUR FIELD WILL BE THE KIND OF CROP YOU WILL REAP.
THE.SPOKEN.WORD.IS.THE.ORIGINAL.SEED_ JEFF.IN
V-3 N-1 SUNDAY_ 62-0318
46-3 Then the kind of seed you have planted in your field will be the kind of crop you will reap. If the denominations wants more members, that's what they're going to get. That's what they have gotten. The Pentecostals wants more Pentecostals; that's what they're going to get. That's right. But the Word's going to produce sons and daughters of God. Uh-huh, uh-huh. That's coming too. Watch, look at that great latter rain supposed to be done, how they would run over the wall, and leap over, and how they'd be an army coming. Just wait a minute. Uh-huh. The kind of crop you'll get is the kind of seed you put in your field.
*YOU ARE A PREDESTINATED SEED JUST LIKE CHRIST WAS; AND WHEN THE RAIN FALLS ON THE SEED, THE LIFE PRODUCES ITSELF.
THE.SPOKEN.WORD.IS.THE.ORIGINAL.SEED_ JEFF.IN
V-3 N-1 SUNDAY_ 62-0318
42-6 All right. And when so, the
Bible is manifested again like in the early days of Christ. See? 'Cause you are a
predestinated seed just like Christ was; and when the rain falls on the seed,
the life produces itself. When
the Holy Spirit falls... When It fell on those seed that Jesus said He chose
them when? Before the foundation of the world. Then they were a
predestinated seed. Is
that right? Then here they haul themselves up in the upper
room, these seeds, the Word, and the Word was laying on there without Life in
it. All of a sudden
there came a sound from heaven as the waters begin to gush down. And it
actually filled all the house where they were setting. And the seeds begin to grow. It
begin to manifest itself, the Word of God being manifested.
Isa 55:1 Ho, every one that thirsteth, come ye to the waters, and he that hath no money; come ye, buy, and eat; yea, come, buy wine and milk without money and without price.
Isa 55:2 Wherefore do ye spend money for that which is not bread? and your labour for that which satisfieth not? hearken diligently unto me, and eat ye that which is good, and let your soul delight itself in fatness.
Isa 55:3 Incline your ear, and come unto me: hear, and your soul shall live; and I will make an everlasting covenant with you, even the sure mercies of David.
Isa 55:4 Behold, I have given him for a witness to the people, a leader and commander to the people.
Isa 55:5 Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of the LORD thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.
Isa 55:6 Seek ye the LORD while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:
Isa 55:7 Let the wicked forsake his way, and the unrighteous man his thoughts: and let him return unto the LORD, and he will have mercy upon him; and to our God, for he will abundantly pardon.
Isa 55:8 For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, saith the LORD.
Isa 55:9 For as the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts.
Isa 55:10 For as the rain cometh down, and the snow from heaven, and returneth not thither, but watereth the earth, and maketh it bring forth and bud, that it may give seed to the sower, and bread to the eater:
Isa 55:11 So shall my word be that goeth forth out of my mouth: it shall not return unto me void, but it shall accomplish that which I please, and it shall prosper in the thing whereto I sent it.
Isa 55:12 For ye shall go out with joy, and be led forth with peace: the mountains and the hills shall break forth before you into singing, and all the trees of the field shall clap their hands.
Isa 55:13 Instead of the thorn shall come up the fir tree, and instead of the brier shall come up the myrtle tree: and it shall be to the LORD for a name, for an everlasting sign that shall not be cut off.
