Behold, what manner of love the Father hath bestowed upon us, that we should be called the sons of God: therefore the world knoweth us not, because it knew him not.
Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is.
At Bro. Ivys Saturday at 3 pm
No service Wednesday the 24th.
Introduction.
238 Notice, He is not an animal. “He took the Book out of the right hand of Him that sat upon the Throne.”
Who was It? The Owner, the original Owner, that had the Book of Redemption in His right hand. And no Angel, no Angelic Being, nothing else, could take the place.
“And this bloody Lamb walked out and took the Book out of His hand.” Whew! What was it? Brother, this is the most sublime thing in the Scripture.
An act that not an Angel, not nothing, could do it. “And the Lamb come and took It from the right hand of Him that sat upon the Throne.”
239 What is it? Now It belongs to the Lamb. Amen. God’s laws required. He’s the One that holds It. God’s law required a Kinsman Redeemer. And the Lamb come out, holding It, “I am their Kinsman.
I am their Redeemer. I now…I have made intercession for them, and now I’ve come to claim their rights for them.” Amen.
There’s the only One. “I’ve come to claim their rights. In that, they have a right to everything that lost in the fall, and I’ve paid the price.”
240 Oh, brother! Whew! Don’t that make you feel religious inside? [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] “Not by good works which we have done, but by His mercy.”
241 Oh, wait a minute! And them elders and everything else begin to throw off crowns, and dignitaries begin to get on the ground, see. No one, no one could do it.
242 And He walks right up to the right hand of God, and took the Book out of His hand, and claimed His rights. “I have died for them. I am their Kinsman Redeemer.
I am. I am the Mediator. My Blood was shed. I have become Man. And I did this in order to get that Church back again, the One I foresaw before the foundation of the world.
I have purposed It. I spoke It, It would be there. And nobody was able to take It, but I went down and done it, Myself. I am their Kinsman. I become kinfolks.” And He takes the Book. Amen!
243 Oh, Who is waiting There for me tonight? Who is that One, church, that’s waiting There?
What else could wait There for you? That Kinsman Redeemer! Oh, my! What a sublime statement, or act!
(Break)
(We Believe in the literal return of Jesus Christ in a corporal body.)
And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight.
And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel;
Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven.
He meets us in the air at the 2nd coming, but at His 3rd coming He sets His feet on the mount of olives.
Behold, the day of the Lord cometh, And thy spoil shall be divided in the midst of thee.
For I will gather all nations against Jerusalem to battle; And the city shall be taken, and the houses rifled, and the women ravished; And half of the city shall go forth into captivity, And the residue of the people shall not be cut off from the city.
Then shall the Lord go forth, and fight against those nations, As when he fought in the day of battle.
And his feet shall stand in that day upon the mount of Olives, Which is before Jerusalem on the east, And the mount of Olives shall cleave in the midst thereof toward the east and toward the west, And there shall be a very great valley; And half of the mountain shall remove toward the north, And half of it toward the south.
Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.
And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, The spirit of grace and of supplications: And they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, And they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, And shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn.
And one shall say unto him, What are these wounds in thine hands? Then he shall answer, Those with which I was wounded in the house of my friends.
Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.
In my Father’s house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.
And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.
Brethren, be followers together of me, and mark them which walk so as ye have us for an ensample.
(For many walk, of whom I have told you often, and now tell you even weeping, that they are the enemies of the cross of Christ:
Whose end is destruction, whose God is their belly, and whose glory is in their shame, who mind earthly things.)
For our conversation is in heaven; from whence also we look for the Saviour, the Lord Jesus Christ:
Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body, according to the working whereby he is able even to subdue all things unto himself.
Bro. Branham preached what Paul preached.
96 That ought to be the achievement of every believer this afternoon. God is able to keep every Word that He said He’d do.
I don’t care what the denominations say, words, “Day of miracles is passed, and all this is telepathy and all, it’s fortunetelling. It’s…”
It doesn’t matter to me what they say. I still believe. If that gun is zeroed to the target, it’ll hit the target. And I believe if a believer is zeroed with the Word of God, it’ll hit the same thing.
If the Word of God ever promised it, it’ll do it again. I’m fully persuaded of that. That, when we see we’re in this age when it’s supposed to be here, it’s supposed to be here. These things are supposed to take place.
97 That’s the reason I do believe that when that Bride is called out and elected, and set in the Book of Life, there will come a sound from Heaven that’ll take such a baptism of the Holy Spirit into that Bride that’ll take Her from the earth, in a Rapturing grace.
God promised it. Don’t care how many science, and how many astronauts they signed up, and everything else, and how many million miles they can see; I don’t care nothing about that.
There is a Heaven, and there is a literal Jesus Christ There that will come in a body form to receive His Church to Himself.
No matter how old the story seems, it’s still the Truth. God said so. That’s what believers believe. 63-1124E - Three Kinds Of Believers
(back to the Breach)
244 Now He has the title deed to redemption. He has It in His hand. Mediation is done now. He has It in His hand. Remember, It’s been in the hand of God, all the time, but now It’s in the hand of the Lamb.
Now watch. The title deed of redemption, of all creation, is in His hand. And He’s come to claim It back, too, for the human race.
Not claim It back to Angels. Claimed It back to the human, which It was given for, to make sons and daughters of God again;
bring them back to the garden of Eden, everything they lost; the whole creation, the trees, the animal life, everything else. Oh, my!
For the earnest expectation of the creature waiteth for the manifestation of the sons of God.
245 Don’t that make you feel good? Whew! [Congregation says, “Amen.”—Ed.] I thought I was tired, but I’m not now. See?
Sometimes I think I - getting too old to preach, and then I go to seeing something like that, and I think I’m a young man again. Yes. Uh-huh. Hum! It does something to you. See?
246 For I know this, that there is Someone There waiting for me. There is Someone paid the price that I couldn’t pay. That’s right.
He did it for me, Charlie. Did it for you. He did it for the whole human race. And now He comes forth to claim His redemptive rights.
Claim it for who? Not for Himself; for us. He is one of us. He is our kinfolks. Oh, my! He is my Brother. He is my Saviour. He is my God. He is my Kinsman Redeemer. He is all.
For what was I without Him, or what could I be without Him? So, see, He is my All. And He is standing There as our kinfolks. And now He’s been interceding for us, up till this time.
And now He comes forth and takes the Book of Redemption, to claim His rights, of what He did for us.
247 They die. Jesus said, “He that believeth on Me, though he were dead, yet shall he live. Whosoever liveth and believeth on Me shall never die.
He that eats My flesh and drinks My Blood has everlasting Life, and I’ll raise him up at the last day.”
248 No matter, he falls asleep in the first watch, second, third, fourth, fifth, sixth, or seventh, wherever he falls asleep. What’ll happen?
The trumpet of God shall sound. That last trump will blast forth, the same time that the last angel is giving his Message and the last Seal is opened.
That last trumpet will sound, and the Redeemer comes forth to take His redeemed possessions, His Church, Blood-washed.
249 Now, oh, the whole creation lays in His hand now, on which the whole plan of redemption is sealed by seven mysterious Seals, in this Book that He took.
Now watch. “And He alone can reveal It to whomsoever He will.” He’s got It in His hand, see.
Now, He promised it would be at that time, now, for It is sealed by Seven Seals of mystery, the Book of Redemption. 63-0317E - The Breach Between The Seven Church Ages And The Seven Seals
Conclusion.
He’s waiting on us there.
And I saw thrones, and they sat upon them, and judgment was given unto them: and I saw the souls of them that were beheaded for the witness of Jesus, and for the word of God, and which had not worshipped the beast, neither his image, neither had received his mark upon their foreheads, or in their hands; and they lived and reigned with Christ a thousand years.
Light on the Statue of Liberty.
You cold, formal Pentecostals; you cold, formal Methodists; you cold, formal Baptists;
you unbeliever, that’s trying to beat Christ out of the nation, trying to put education and science in the stead of the Holy Ghost;
you’ll beat your brains out and the light will still beam on and on and on and on.
He will have a Church that’s filled with the Holy Ghost that He will come for her, and He will live and reign in it. You’ll never beat it out.
You’re just beating your brains out, studying all kinds of man-made books and dogmas.
Take God’s Word and read It and say It’s the truth and accept It. Sure. 61-0415E - The Uncertain Sound
