24-0802A_THE MESSAGE OF GRACE PT-4 (IT TAKES THE GRACE OF GOD TO KEEP US IN HIM)

Heb 12:25  See that ye refuse not him that speaketh. For if they escaped not who refused him that spake on earth, much more shall not we escape, if we turn away from him that speaketh from heaven: 

Heb 12:26  Whose voice then shook the earth: but now he hath promised, saying, Yet once more I shake not the earth only, but also heaven. 

Heb 12:27  And this word, Yet once more, signifieth the removing of those things that are shaken, as of things that are made, that those things which cannot be shaken may remain. 

Heb 12:28  Wherefore we receiving a kingdom which cannot be moved, let us have grace, whereby we may serve God acceptably with reverence and godly fear: 

Heb 12:29  For our God is a consuming fire. 

Zec 4:1  And the angel that talked with me came again, and waked me, as a man that is wakened out of his sleep, 

Zec 4:2  And said unto me, What seest thou? And I said, I have looked, and behold a candlestick all of gold, with a bowl upon the top of it, and his seven lamps thereon, and seven pipes to the seven lamps, which are upon the top thereof: 

Zec 4:3  And two olive trees by it, one upon the right side of the bowl, and the other upon the left side thereof. 

Zec 4:4  So I answered and spake to the angel that talked with me, saying, What are these, my lord? 

Zec 4:5  Then the angel that talked with me answered and said unto me, Knowest thou not what these be? And I said, No, my lord. 

Zec 4:6  Then he answered and spake unto me, saying, This is the word of the LORD unto Zerubbabel, saying, Not by might, nor by power, but by my spirit, saith the LORD of hosts. 

Zec 4:7  Who art thou, O great mountain? before Zerubbabel thou shalt become a plain: and he shall bring forth the headstone thereof with shoutings, crying, Grace, grace unto it. 

 

*THIS JEZEBEL SYSTEM OF THE DEVIL'S GOT THE WHOLE WORLD IN CORRUPTION, NOT A SOUND PLACE IN IT.

THE.FALLING.APART.OF.THE.WORLD_  JEFF.IN  V-10 N-6  SUNDAY_  62-1216

  116    When God made a man, He made him one way. He made a woman; He made him another way--made her another way. There's two different covenants, two different plans, two different altogether between them. And they don't look alike. They're not look alike; they're not to act alike; they're different altogether. And women are try to be like men, and men so sissified that he's like a woman.

I seen a boy yesterday in Cincinnati, looked like Mrs. Kennedy, that hair way--it was out like that. God wants a man to look like a man, and wants a woman to look like a woman.

I tell you, this Jezebel system of the devil's got the whole world in corruption, not a sound place in it. It's all putrefied sores, sores of cancer, malignancy of the devil that's eating the very core out of the--out of the systems that they've got set up here. Satan is a vulture feeding upon his own kingdom. He's a devil; he's an impure; he is the--the father of a lie, and he feeds upon the flesh of his own people: the devil.

 

*USE HIS THOUGHT, THEN YOU'RE A PART OF GOD BECAUSE HIS WORD AND YOU BECAME THE SAME…THEN YOU'RE IN THE KINGDOM.

THE.FALLING.APART.OF.THE.WORLD_  JEFF.IN  V-10 N-6  SUNDAY_  62-1216

  118    Christ is the King of king and Lord of lords, the anointed Messiah. The believer holds to that Word. God and His Word is One. I and my word are one. You and your word are one. Then don't lean, use your own thoughts; use His thought, then you're a part of God because His Word and you became the same. See? Then you're in the Kingdom.

Abraham called anything that was contrary to God's promise as though it wasn't. Yes, he... Such as man-made systems today, he'd do the same thing. Then being in such a kingdom.....

*HE GAVE US THE PROGRAM OF GOD'S KINGDOM, THE FATHER'S KINGDOM, WHICH IS HIS WORD.

THE.FALLING.APART.OF.THE.WORLD_  JEFF.IN  V-10 N-6  SUNDAY_  62-1216

  113    Now, God's Kingdom is not of this world. And when Christ was here, He give us the program of this Kingdom. He gave us the program of God's Kingdom, the Father's Kingdom, which is His Word. Now, if you want to know how to get into that Kingdom, this Word's got it. If you come in at any other door... You got to come in the same door the rest of them come in by. If you try to make some other entrance, why, you're the same as a thief and a robber. And He said, "Whosoever shall add one word to This, or take one Word from It, the same will be taken, his part, out of the Book of Life." So if you claim you had your name on the Book of Life, if you did, don't get it taken off.

THE.FALLING.APART.OF.THE.WORLD_  JEFF.IN  V-10 N-6  SUNDAY_  62-1216

  115    Now, watch. And He gave us a program, the Father's Word. And the true believer holds onto It, 'cause he can't help it; it's the Kingdom of God in him. And like Abraham, he calls anything contrary to God's Word as though it wasn't. And if anybody tells you that denomination's of God, you stay what like Abraham. If anybody tells, you must be sprinkled, or some kind of a little something, system or something contrary to God's Word, don't you believe it. You count it as though it wasn't.

*AND THEIR LIFE PROVES IT, AND GOD CONFIRMS HIS WORD TO IT.

THE.FALLING.APART.OF.THE.WORLD_  JEFF.IN  V-10 N-6  SUNDAY_  62-1216

  102    So why yoke up to a organization when the Kingdom of God is offered to you that you're borned into it? And there's not a hypocrite in it: all pure, unadulterated sons and daughters of God, that believe His Word from Genesis to Revelation and stays with It. And their life proves it, and God confirms His Word to it. That's the Messiah. That's the Wife of Messiah.

And God sets in that system teachers, pastors, prophets, and so forth, to keep that Messiahship of His straight in there, not mixed up with denominational creeds, but weeds that thing out and keep the Church pure unadulterated to Christ and His Word.

*IT DEPENDS ON WHERE YOU SET YOUR AFFECTIONS. IT DEPENDS ON WHAT POST YOU TIE TO.

THE.FALLING.APART.OF.THE.WORLD_  JEFF.IN  V-10 N-6  SUNDAY_  62-1216

  125    But the Church receives a Kingdom that when we set in heavenly places and are lifted up into the Presence of God, setting in heavenly places in Christ Jesus, knowing this, with the assurance of faith, that we're in the Presence of our anointed King. Oh. There is to be a new heaven come forth and a new earth, and which will never part again as long as eternity lasts. We're looking for that new heavens and earth. This one, you can have all of it you want. For me, I want That one.

It depends on where you set your affections. It depends on what post you tie to. You tie to your denominational post, you're going right down with it. If you tie to anything of this world, to any politics and things like that, and trust in that, you'll sink with it.

THE.FALLING.APART.OF.THE.WORLD_  JEFF.IN  V-10 N-6  SUNDAY_  62-1216

  127    But my hopes is built on nothing less than Jesus' Blood with righteousness. And all around my soul gives way, and every minister turns me down, and every creed runs me out, and I have not even one place to go, He's all my hope and stay. Upon that Rock, on Christ that solid Rock I stand, all other grounds is sinking sand. Someday I maybe shall be buried in a graveyard somewhere, down beneath the sea in a airplane wreck, killed in a train or a automobile, wherever it might be that God has chose for me to go, but this one thing, I know this, that I've anchored my soul in that Haven of Rest yonder in His Word. I believe it, that this has got to be God's Word.

*GRACE WILL MAKE A WAY FOR YOU IN THIS DARK HOUR IF YOU'LL JUST ACCEPT IT.

THE.MESSAGE.OF.GRACE_  JEFF.IN  V-13 N-3  SUNDAY_  61-0827

  82    The grace was promised in the garden of Eden, and grace came, grace to Adam and Eve. Nowhere to go, no which way to turn, and yet grace made a way.

Let me say this, my sinner friend. You may be here this morning a prostitute; you may be here this morning a woman-chaser; you may be here a drunkard, or a gambler, or a murderer. You might be here as an impure husband, an impure wife. You might be the vilest of sinner. You say, "I'm a past that stage of redemption." No, you're not, or you wouldn't be at the church this morning. Grace will make a way for you in this dark hour if you'll just accept it. Adam had to be willing to accept it, so do you. Accept it.

*THEN WHEN THE FEAR OF GOD COME UPON NOAH, GOD CALLED HIM BY GRACE, AND SAVED HIM AND HIS HOUSE, BECAUSE IT WAS GRACE THAT DID IT.

THE.MESSAGE.OF.GRACE_  JEFF.IN  V-13 N-3  SUNDAY_  61-0827

  84    The grace of God reached over in Noah's time. Noah, just an ordinary man, he and his family, but because Noah feared God, he believed God. You can't fear God without believing. How can you fear something you don't believe? You've got to fear God. Solomon said, "The fear of God is the beginning of wisdom." Now, just to fear God, you're beginning to have wisdom. And the fear of God, Noah feared the Lord, and he believed the Lord. And that's what God honors, is your faith in Him. That's right. Then when the fear of God come upon Noah, God called him by grace, and saved him and his house, because it was grace that did it. Not because Noah was a great big handsomer man than all the rest of them, not because Noah went to the best church there was in the country, not because he belonged to the best in organization, not because he could dress better, not because he had more money, not because he was some special person; but because of the grace of God, God saved Noah. Grace saved Noah (not his works, but His grace) and also saved his family.
