2Ki 4:30  And the mother of the child said, As the LORD liveth, and as thy soul liveth, I will not leave thee. And he arose, and followed her.


2Ti 3:16  All scripture is given by inspiration of God, and is profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness: 

2Ti 3:17  That the man of God may be perfect, throughly furnished unto all good works.






* EVERY WORD OF IT IS INSPIRED.

THE.MARK.OF.THE.BEAST_  JEFF.IN  V-26 N-3  THURSDAY_  54-0513

15    …..And the whole Word of God is every bit tied right together. Sixty-six Books, wrote by numbers of men, hundreds of years apart, and not one contradicts the other one, not a one, every one of them perfect. Never was a piece of literature wrote like It in all the world.

They've been for two thousand years, trying to alter the Lord's Prayer, to put one word to It or take one away from It to make It better. You just can't do it. Oh, It's perfect. It's the Word of God.

And I believe the--the Bible is the inspired Word of God. Every Word of It is inspired. I don't believe just this is not inspired, and this is, and that is. I believe It's all inspired. It's either all right or all wrong; and if It's all mixed up, then we don't know what to do. But It's, every bit, the Truth. I'm willing to sacrifice my life at any moment for what THUS SAITH THE LORD is here.

 

*AND I BELIEVE THAT EVERY WORD OF IT IS INSPIRED.

WHO.IS.GOD_  CLEVELAND.OH  TUESDAY_  50-0815

  E-24    Now, that was to be preached until Jesus returned. O God, give us men and women of courage. Somebody who will stand and call right right and wrong wrong. It's either right or wrong. If that isn't the... If that isn't... I read that Mark 16. If that isn't the truth, I don't believe the Bible. And if I don't believe the Bible...

If I was--wasn't for Jesus, I'd be here against Him. God grant the day when men and women will be what they say they are. If you're Christian, live like it, be like it, act like it. If you're not, be against it, so people will know where you're standing. If I didn't believe it, I'd be against it.

But I'm willing to put my soul on any phase of that Word, to say that It's the truth. I believe that's the inspired Word of God. And I believe that every Word of It is inspired. And I'm willing to trust my life any time on God's Word and His promises, for It is true.

 

*AND I BELIEVE THE--THE BIBLE IS THE INSPIRED WORD OF GOD. EVERY WORD OF IT IS INSPIRED.

*AND STAY WITH IT AND BELIEVE EVERY WORD, 'CAUSE YOUR SPIRIT BEARS RECORD WITH HIS SPIRIT THEN.

INSPIRATION_  OWENSBORO.KY  SATURDAY_  56-0128

  E-31    So remember, don't go by reasoning. You be sure that you're right. And there's a way of doing that, and that's accepting Jesus Christ and being borned again of the Spirit of God, when your entire soul testifies the Word of God is right. And stay with it and believe every Word, 'cause your spirit bears record with His Spirit then. And the thing... If... Here it is, get it. "If you love the world or the things of the world, the love of God's not even in you," says the Bible.

 

*FOR IF YOU'RE A REAL CHRISTIAN, LIVING A TRUE LIFE, AND LIVING THE WORD AND GOD'S WITH YOU, EVERYBODY WILL ADMIRE IT, IF HIS SOUL'S STILL IN TOUCH WITH GOD.

INSPIRATION_  OWENSBORO.KY  SATURDAY_  56-0128

  E-36    Elijah, no wonder he was anointed... And a very prominent thing, people know it when you're anointed with the Holy Spirit. They might in their heart, or in their--in reasoning, say, "Oh, there, that guy is crazy. Oh, I--I..." But down in their heart they admire you (That's right.), down in their heart.

They might fuss with you, 'cause they're trying to agree with their reasonings; but down in their hearts they admire, unless their soul's so seared till they have nothing but reasonings. For if you're a real Christian, living a true life, and living the Word and God's with you, everybody will admire it, if his soul's still in touch with God. Amen. That's the reason I think fussing about denominations is uncalled for. Sure it is.

  E-37    …..What the Church is slack in today is testifying of our great powerful Jesus today. We try to limit Him, try to say, "Well, He was and--back yonder." But today He's the same that He was then. And the Church, who's got a vision of this and knows it ought to not be slack at any time, but telling everywhere they go "Jesus lives and reigns," that's...

 

INSPIRATION_  OWENSBORO.KY  SATURDAY_  56-0128

  E-38    The woman, she realized that Elijah was a servant of God. And when they would come by that way she'd always trying to do him a little favor, try to be kind to him.

And if there's anything that we ought to be, is kind to one another. When you see a brother or sister in fault, don't never--don't never breathe it to nobody. Keep it to yourself and pray for that person. Be kind to them. And if the Spirit of God is in you, then you will be kind to one another. Jesus said, "I come to do Thy will, Father."

And we are about the Master's business as He was about the Father's business. And the same Spirit that He had to begin the works of the Father and to finish the atonement, to make a way that we could carry the message, if that Spirit's in you, you'll have that same attitude towards people: trying to do what you can to help them, no matter who they are or where they are. You'll try to help people. Amen. That's kinda strong, but that's truth. That's right. It... Rather, friends, it's the time has come where we're nearing the end. And something's got to be done.

Notice. We got to have rapturing faith right away now. I believe it. And after tomorrow night I want you to reason about it when I speak on the second coming and see how close you think it is.

 

* IF YOU'RE CHRISTIAN, LIVE LIKE IT, BE LIKE IT, ACT LIKE IT.

WHO.IS.GOD_  CLEVELAND.OH  TUESDAY_  50-0815

E-24    Now, that was to be preached until Jesus returned. O God, give us men and women of courage. Somebody who will stand and call right right and wrong wrong. It's either right or wrong. If that isn't the... If that isn't... I read that Mark 16. If that isn't the truth, I don't believe the Bible. And if I don't believe the Bible...

If I was--wasn't for Jesus, I'd be here against Him. God grant the day when men and women will be what they say they are. If you're Christian, live like it, be like it, act like it. If you're not, be against it, so people will know where you're standing. If I didn't believe it, I'd be against it.

  *SO TAKE A SOLEMN WARNING BEFORE HE GETS HERE. HAVE A PLACE PREPARED FOR HIM.

INSPIRATION_  OWENSBORO.KY  SATURDAY_  56-0128

  E-42    …..And the same thing will take place someday for those (Here it is.), those who are prepared and waiting for the coming of the Lord. He will be along someday, so you better have a little place in here. Make it ready now. For that's the only thing that's a going with Him. This other--our houses, our homes, our land, our popularity, our flesh, our clothes, everything we'll drop and leave here on the earth. But just this that's on the inside will go with Him. Get it ready; prepare it now. Don't be deceived.

I've stood by the side of too many dying people that thought they were right and found out they were wrong at the end. So take a solemn warning before He gets here. Have a place prepared for Him.

I wonder if Christ would come to our hearts tonight, if He'd find it with everything of the world gone, that He might fulfill where it's "Come unto Me all ye that heavy--heavy laden. And take My yoke upon you; learn of Me; I'm meek and lowly: and you'll find rest," resting with Christ, what a wonderful thing.

 

*LOOK STRAIGHT IN THE FACE OF GOD AND ASK THE QUESTION, "LORD, DO I PLEASE YOU? I'LL NEVER HAVE THE OPPORTUNITY NO MORE, AFTER THIS LIFE IS OVER, TO SERVE YOU. GOD.DOESN'T.CALL.MAN.TO.JUDGMENT.WITHOUT.FIRST.WARNING.HIM_  JEFF.IN  V-8 N-3  WEDNESDAY_  63-0724

  194      As we quietly now... Do you realize that each one of us in here is got to leave here, leave this world? Do you know that a man that is born of a woman is of a few days and full of trouble? Did you know that because that we're born of that tree from the Garden of Eden, of death, that we've got to die? We're the fruit of our mother's womb, and we have to die, we have to separate this life. Young or old, it makes no difference. If the oldest man or woman in here lives through the night, she'll outlive or he'll outlive many ten-, fifteen-year-old children? Hundreds of them will die across the world before morning, of children. So all that matters, is, what are you doing right now?

  195      This may be your last opportunity. Young or old, you're able to get to church. Don't leave one thing undone. Be deeply and sincere. Lay every sin and everything aside. Look straight in the face of God and ask the question, "Lord, do I please You? What else could I do, Lord Jesus? I'll never have the opportunity no more, after this life is over, to serve You. This is the only time I have. Lord God, only let me know what You want to do! If I should go do this or I should do that, I'd gladly do it."

196    Do we--do we think that sincerely? Does the little fellows think that? Does the middle aged think that? Does the old people think that? Does the teen age think that? We got to go, and how do you know that we all won't be gone before morning? We don't know it. You say, "That worries me." It shouldn't! Frankly, it should make you most happy to know that you're leaving this old pesthouse.

25-0808A_IN THE TIME OF TROUBLE



Psa 27:1  A Psalm of David. The LORD is my light and my salvation; whom shall I fear? the LORD is the strength of my life; of whom shall I be afraid? 

Psa 27:2  When the wicked, even mine enemies and my foes, came upon me to eat up my flesh, they stumbled and fell. 

Psa 27:3  Though an host should encamp against me, my heart shall not fear: though war should rise against me, in this will I be confident. 

Psa 27:4  One thing have I desired of the LORD, that will I seek after; that I may dwell in the house of the LORD all the days of my life, to behold the beauty of the LORD, and to enquire in his temple. 

Psa 27:5  For in the time of trouble he shall hide me in his pavilion: in the secret of his tabernacle shall he hide me; he shall set me up upon a rock. 


PHILADELPHIAN.CHURCH.AGE  -  CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.8

It is in the midst of a time of great trouble that Jesus comes. And with His coming there is a resurrection. Many are to come forth out of the dust and rise with those who are alive but waiting for His return. And these will be given crowns. Why? Because they are Sons of God. They are kings with Him. They are reigning with Him. That is what the crown signifies--reigning and ruling with the Great King, Himself. That is the promise to all those who suffer with Him here on earth--all those who endured patiently knowing that God, the Just Judge would reward them. They who gave up all for Him and committed all to Him will sit down in His throne and share in His glorious kingdom.

  315-3    PHILADELPHIAN.CHURCH.AGE  -  CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.8

Oh, we have a word for us all at this time. It is hold fast-- persevere. Don't give up. Put on the whole armour of God--use every weapon He has given us--use every gift at our disposal and look ahead with joy, because we are going to be crowned by Him Who is King of Kings and Lord of Lords.

 

1Jn 2:17  And the world passeth away, and the lust thereof: but he that doeth the will of God abideth for ever. 

Psa 91:10  There shall no evil befall thee, neither shall any plague come nigh thy dwelling. 
Psa 91:11  For he shall give his angels charge over thee, to keep thee in all thy ways. 

Psa 91:1  He that dwelleth in the secret place of the most High shall abide under the shadow of the Almighty. 
Psa 91:2  I will say of the LORD, He is my refuge and my fortress: my God; in him will I trust.

Job 32:9  Great men are not always wise: neither do the aged understand judgment.





*SICKNESS, NOTHING BOTHERS YOU AS LONG AS THE SPIRIT OF GOD IS NEAR AND YOU KNOW IT.

INSPIRATION_  OWENSBORO.KY  SATURDAY_  56-0128

  E-18    Elijah, I always thought of him as a great, big man, tall, maybe skinny, and we see that he was a fearless man when the Spirit of God was upon him. He did not worry about what anyone thought about him or what the world had to say as long as the Spirit of God was on him.

And you know, I--I kinda believe that's just about the attitude of the church now, or any time, or anybody. Sickness, nothing bothers you as long as the Spirit of God is near and you know it. Let a person be so, ever so sick and let the Holy Spirit come into the room and anoint that person, you'll see a changed person in a few moments.


*EVERY WORD IS INSPIRED OR NONE OF THEM IS INSPIRED.

PROOF.OF.HIS.RESURRECTION_  JEFF.IN  V-26 N-16  SUNDAY_  55-0410M

 84    Then if Christ was in us today, He'd do the same things He did when he was here on earth. If the Lord Jesus is arisen from the dead today, and lives among us, and said, "The same things that I do, you'll do also, for I'll be with you to the end of the world," then there's only one way to prove whether He's raised from the dead; that is, when the Church that believes that, Christ will make Hisself known to that Church by His same power of His resurrection. It's got to be, friends.

  85    This is either the Word of God or It's a deceiving Book. That's right. It's either right or It's wrong. And It's either all right or all wrong. Every word is inspired or none of them is inspired. I want to believe it.

Paul said, "I never come to you preaching with enticing words and wisdom of men; for if I did, then your faith would be built upon wisdom of men. But I come to you, preaching the Gospel of the power of God, the resurrection of the Lord Jesus: that your faith would be steadfast." Paul never come with some seminary experience to polish around, and take out, and add to. He said, "I come knowing only one thing: Christ crucified. I only come knowing one thing, preaching to you the power of the resurrection, that Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever." And in Galatians 1:8, he said, "If an angel preached anything else, let him be accursed unto you." That's right.

25-0801A_THE GOD WHO IS RICH IN MERCY



Eph 2:1  And you hath he quickened, who were dead in trespasses and sins; 

Eph 2:2  Wherein in time past ye walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit that now worketh in the children of disobedience: 

Eph 2:3  Among whom also we all had our conversation in times past in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind; and were by nature the children of wrath, even as others. 

Eph 2:4  But God, who is rich in mercy, for his great love wherewith he loved us, 

Eph 2:5  Even when we were dead in sins, hath quickened us together with Christ, (by grace ye are saved;) 

Eph 2:6  And hath raised us up together, and made us sit together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus: 

Eph 2:7  That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in his kindness toward us through Christ Jesus. 

Eph 2:8  For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God: 

Eph 2:9  Not of works, lest any man should boast. 

1Ti 5:6  But she that liveth in pleasure is dead while she liveth. 
Eze 10:14  And every one had four faces: the first face was the face of a cherub, and the second face was the face of a man, and the third the face of a lion, and the fourth the face of an eagle.




 

REVELATION.CHAPTER.FOUR.3_  JEFF.IN  ROJC 645-716  SUNDAY_  61-0108

291    You notice, these--these Cherubims that John saw here must've been interested in keeping the Tree of Life, so they must be interested in human beings. Or read Genesis, getting back to Genesis again; They kept the Tree of Life, guarded it, the Way of Life, the Way of Life. How is the Way? Jesus said, "I am that Way. I am that Bread that come from God out of heaven. If a man eats this Bread, he'll live forever." Now, there is a way back to that Tree of Life. You get it?

Now, at this, I want to show now and make this sure, it's an altar. Now, this must've been an altar at the garden of Eden. I tell you why. Do you remember both Cain and Abel come up here to worship? So that showed that God's altar was moved and set here at the garden of Eden, and the only way back to Eden is by the altar. Here you are again (See?), back to Eden through the altar. And they were to keep that way there, guard it, that they couldn't get back there until this altar was covered with blood.

(O God, can't people see it?) See, nothing but the Blood. There has to be an atonement, a mercy seat there; this altar of judgment must become a mercy seat; and when this altar, if the Blood is lifted, there'll stand on that judgment day the fire of God's wrath to guard that Tree again. Only one thing will enter into this gate to Eden again, will be through the Blood of Jesus Christ. You see it?

REVELATION.CHAPTER.FOUR.3_  JEFF.IN  ROJC 645-716  SUNDAY_  61-0108

  328    Now, we're living in another age. Glory. Oh, I love this age. Don't you? Now, God has a mercy seat today to be guarded. You believe that? Where's the mercy seat found? In the heart of man. Where did it come in the heart of man? At the day of Pentecost when the Holy Ghost (which is God) come into human hearts. Is that right? Now, let's mark this down here, and get ready to draw it if you want to. Pentecost, P-e-n-t; I'll put: Pentecost. This is the mercy seat, the Holy Ghost. Put in here... I'll tell you what, make it more appropriate, let's put in here the "Dove" which means the bird. See? All right, guarding the mercy seat, now has God got guards for the mercy seat today? Now that... Now, watch how beautiful it's drawed out.

REVELATION.CHAPTER.FOUR.3_  JEFF.IN  ROJC 645-716  SUNDAY_  61-0108

    98-1  {202}    Remember in the Old Testament? As long as the blood was off the mercy seat, it was judgment, but as long as the blood was on there, there was mercy. But when the Lamb walked away, that did it.

REVELATION.CHAPTER.FOUR.1_  JEFF.IN  ROJC 551-584  SATURDAY_  60-1231

Note, "the throne," He set on the throne. He wasn't no more back down in the candlesticks now, on earth. The rapture had done come. He was in glory, setting on His throne. I want you to notice on down, we'll find even in the 5th chapter; it was not the throne of mercy. It wasn't a throne of mercy any more; it was the throne of judgment. It wasn't a throne of grace. It's a throne of judgment because fire and lightning and thunders issued forth from it; no more; mercy's over, the church age was finished. "He that's filthy is filthy still; he that's righteous is righteous still; he that's holy is holy still," no more a throne of mercy.

REVELATION.CHAPTER.FOUR.1_  JEFF.IN  ROJC 551-584  SATURDAY_  60-1231

  169    Tonight, the Blood lays on that throne and it's a mercy seat for every sinner that's seeking mercy. But on that day, it won't be a mercy seat then; it'll be a judgment seat with a angry God setting there. "Where... If the righteous is scarcely saved, where will the sinner and ungodly appear?" Even when He comes in the clouds of His glory, the mountains will try to find a place to hide. Where are we going to stay then?

Oh, precious is that flow

That makes me white as snow;

No other fount I know,

Nothing but the Blood of Jesus.

1105-Q-348    348. Brother Branham, some say mercy is over and no one can be saved. Now, is this true? (I'm glad I got this one.) We watch and pray--we watch the prayer lines, and it seems some are still finding mercy. Now, that's the first question, you got two.

"Is mercy over?" Don't never think that. See? Just keep right on doing everything you can until you're taken away. See?

"We notice in the prayer line some's finds mercy." Sure. Mercy's--the doors are open. See? I think where you got this--this thought might lay between... See, I don't have time to give each one of these Scriptures their right place (You see?), each one of these things their right place. They... In the prayer line you find mercy, certainly.

If I knowed Jesus was coming this afternoon, I'd be doing just the thing I'm doing right now (See?), just continuing right on. Mercy is always open. See?

QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS.3_  JEFF.IN  COD  SUNDAY_  64-0830M

  1105-201    And now, where I think you get it, is about the finishing of the Seven Church Ages and the Seven Seals being loosed. See? The Seven Seals, it's manifested what takes place has--what has took place. The seventh church age, we're at the end of the seventh church age. When I say the end, that doesn't mean it's this very hour, this very minute. You remember, the Bible said, back in the times of--of the Lord Jesus, Paul said, "For the time is at hand." Do you realize how long that was in God's time? That was yesterday. My time, it's been two thousand years. See? The time is at hand. See? What God calls at hand is not what we call at hand. See?

So just keep on believing, keep on praying, keep on... God's still got mercy open; just keep flowing into it as fast as you can. God will do the stopping when it's time to stop. See?

Luk 18:10  Two men went up into the temple to pray; the one a Pharisee, and the other a publican. 

Luk 18:11  The Pharisee stood and prayed thus with himself, God, I thank thee, that I am not as other men are, extortioners, unjust, adulterers, or even as this publican. 

Luk 18:12  I fast twice in the week, I give tithes of all that I possess. 

Luk 18:13  And the publican, standing afar off, would not lift up so much as his eyes unto heaven, but smote upon his breast, saying, God be merciful to me a sinner. 

Luk 18:14  I tell you, this man went down to his house justified rather than the other: for every one that exalteth himself shall be abased; and he that humbleth himself shall be exalted. 

Psa 103:17  But the mercy of the LORD is from everlasting to everlasting upon them that fear him, and his righteousness unto children's children; 
Psa 100:5  For the LORD is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations. 
Psa 106:1  Praise ye the LORD. O give thanks unto the LORD; for he is good: for his mercy endureth for ever. 
Psa 118:4  Let them now that fear the LORD say, that his mercy endureth for ever. 
Heb 4:16  Let us therefore come boldly unto the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy, and find grace to help in time of need.
