JEHOVAH.JIREH.title  LA.CA  59-0417

But if you're reading between the lines and try to make It say something, that in between the lines says something different than what the lines says,

then it's wrong.

But it's got to agree,

all the way through It.

The Bible is just like a great jig-saw puzzle,

 if you'll excuse the expression.

And if you just try to put it together just the way you look at it, you've got to have

something over here to look at.

 If you don't, you'll ruin your scene.

You'll have a cow picking grass on top of a tree.

 So it won't be right.

So that's the way it is with--when you try to put the Bible together with a intellectual understanding of It.

You can't do it.

 It's a Spirit written Word,

and

it takes the ]

Holy Spirit

to place It together.

II TIMOTHY 4:2-4

  2    Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season; reprove, rebuke, exhort with all longsuffering and doctrine.

  3    For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but after their own lusts shall they heap to themselves teachers, having itching ears;

  4    And they shall turn away [their] ears from the truth, and shall be turned unto fables.

 

345

PROVING.HIS.WORD.title  JEFF.IN  V-9 N-6  64-0816

You need the

Word

to take the rapture with It.

You don't need some credential. You don't need some long history of some school to be healed this morning.

You need to accept the Word;

that does it.

 

346

LAMB'S.BOOK.OF.LIFE.title  JEFF.IN  56-0603

And the bridegroom came. And the ones that had oil, went in.

See,

the translation,

going

with the Bridegroom.

 

347

IS.THIS.SIGN.OF.THE.END.SIR.title  JEFF  V-2 N-11  62-1230E

There'll just be a few understand it.

 "As it was in the days of Noah, so will it be in the coming of the Son of man." What was saved? Five souls. In the days of Lot there was actually three saved. The wife started out and lost. So shall it be in the coming of the Son of man. There'll be very few saved,

 translated in that time.

 

348

REDEMPTION.BY.POWER.title  LVL.KY  V-25 N-7  54-0329

Every Scripture dovetails together.

There's no contradiction in God's Word.

 No, sir.

Every bit, perfect... The only Book ever written that's inspired like that, that can perfectly... Wrote by many writers, and many hundreds of years apart; and every one of them,

 By

 the Holy Spirit speaking,

dovetails right together.

 

349

PRIDE.title  CAMPBELLSVILLE.KY  55-0807A

Now,

the Scripture's all tied together.

How the Bible means so much more

than it speaks,

 if we can only have

the Holy Spirit to interpret It for us.

 

350

HEAR.YE.HIM.title  MIDDLETOWN.OH  58-0328

And the Scripture is of no private interpretation.

And the Holy Spirit is

 the

only One

Who can reveal it,

for it is hid from the eyes of the wise and prudent,

and it's revealed to babes such as will learn.

So if you don't watch,

if you don't use the mind of the Holy Spirit to put it together,

 you'll have your scene all mixed up,

 for instance, just like a cow picking grass in the top of a tree.

 And that's just about the way some of it looks.

 

351

RAPTURE.THE.title  YUMA.AZ  V-5 N-14  65-1204

 Everything else will pass away, even heavens and earth, but It won't. And if we be that Word,

the earth will pass from beneath us, but we can never pass away, because we are that Word, the Bride of the Groom.

I pray for each one, that You'll grant to them, Father, as my sincere prayer... And excuse me, Father, for being so nervous tonight, jumping up here late, and--and being shaky, and saying words broke up and cut up.

Somehow another, great Holy Spirit,

splice

them together in Your own Divine way.

[THE WHOLE BIBLE WILL SPLICE WITH THE HOLY SPIRIT.]

352

RECOGNIZING.YOUR.DAY.title  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-1  64-0726M

Then the newspapers packed that, and the magazines, across the nation:

 Mysterious circle of Light,

 in a form of a pyramid,

just like I drawed it here and showed you, raised up from where those angels was standing and went thirty miles high and was twenty-seven miles across, or either twenty-seven miles high and thirty miles across, I forget which it was. And was seen throughout the states, just up above Tucson, Arizona, right where it happened, same time.

RECOGNIZING.YOUR.DAY.title  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-1  64-0726M

That opened up the Seven Seals,

which undone all the hidden mysteries of the Bible,

 the doctrines and so forth, which the world so rudely attacks nowadays, attacks it and says it's wrong, this, that...

Here the other day in Arizona,

splicing tapes

to try to make me say things that I didn't say.

[EXTREME DANGER LAYS IN SPLICING THE MESSAGE WITHOUT THE INSPIRATION OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. YOU WILL GO OUT ON A LIMB.]

 

353

INDIA.TRIP.REPORT.title  LIMA.OH  57-0126B

If the church is only governed by man's theology,

 then it don't take the Holy Ghost.

It's right.

But the--the church is not to be governed by human theology.

The Holy Spirit is to run the church.

We're not to be filled with education and man's theology;

we're to be filled with the Spirit of God,

 and to be led by,

 not the bishop,

 by the

Holy Spirit,

or not by any denominational leaders,

but by the

Holy Spirit,

brethren.

[THE HOLY SPIRIT WILL NEVER LEAVE THE WORD.]

354

PATMOS.VISION.title  JEFF.IN  ROJC 69-130  60-1204E

 Let God come into your life and take control of you,

 and He'll show you things to come.

For it's not you no more; it's the

Holy Spirit

 in your life back there looking through them mortal eyes to pick out things.

 

355

WE.WOULD.SEE.JESUS.title  LONG.BEACH.CA  61-0208

Live with the Holy Spirit.

 Don't get off on to some other tantrum.

Stay right with God,

 right in His Word,

And

 the Holy Spirit will never make you do anything that's contrary to this Word.

 It'll stay right in the Word,

 'cause the Word is God.

 

356

SIR.WE.WOULD.SEE.JESUS.title  NY.NY  V-18 N-7  63-1112

  Oh,

how it would be today if the church could only stay with Christ,

 under the tutorship of the Holy Spirit,

never leave that Word

for no creed nor nothing,

believe   It   just   the   way   It's   wrote.

 

357

ABSOLUTE.AN.title  SHREVEPORT.LA  V-17 N-10  63-1201M

Always judge everything that any spirit tells you by the Word.

The Word,

 don't never get away from that Word;

 if you do,

you're lost.

 

I JOHN 4:1

  1       Beloved, believe not every spirit, but try the spirits whether they are of God: because many false prophets are gone out into the world.

 

358

EL.SHADDAI.title  LA.CA  59-0416

Jude, said,

"I gave all diligence to write unto you of the common salvation, and it was needful for me to write unto you, and to exhort you, that you should earnestly contend for the faith that was once delivered unto the saints."

They'd fallen away from it.

And if they'd fell away then,

thirty-three years

after the death of Christ,

how much more have they fallen away tonight?

[A FRIGHTENING THOUGHT:

THE RESTORATION OF THE FAITH ONCE DELIVERED UNTO THE SAINTS UNDER THE PROPHET – MESSENGER HAPPENED A LONG TIME AGO….WE HAVE SEEN THE FALLING AWAY AGAIN.]

 

359

BAPTISM.OF.THE.HOLY.SPIRIT.title  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-2  58-

Let somebody walk up here and say,

"Bless God, I got oil in my hands; looky here. You know, I—

I believe I got the Holy Ghost;

I got oil in my hand."

You'll hear somebody say,

"That's not Scriptural."

That's right.

360

BAPTISM.OF.THE.HOLY.SPIRIT.title  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-2  58- 

One said, "Oh, I spoke with tongues; I got it."

 Show me in the Scriptures

 that's the evidence of the Holy Ghost. That's right."

"Oh, the Lord called me to preach," says some woman.

Show me in the Scriptures

 He did that, ma'am.

"Oh, I know the Lord told me; He blessed me that night I was baptized in the Name of the Father, Son, Holy Ghost."

 Show me in the Scriptures

 where you're supposed to do that.

"Well, I'm just as good as anybody else; and I'm a Methodist, or a Baptist, or a Presbyterian; I'm Pentecostal."

 Show me in the Scripture

 where God said that.

 See?

That's right.

It's not there.

[THAT’S NOT SCRIPTURAL ------IT’S NOT IN THE BIBLE.

YET MEN BELIEVE UNSCRIPTURAL THINGS.]

 

361

PRESENT.STAGE.OF.MY.MINISTRY.title  JEFF.IN  V-11 N-2  62- 

All men who stay with God's Word

gets to that place where they are

forsaken

 by the world and the religious world.

BEING FORSAKEN IS PART OF THE FAITH THAT WAS ONCE DELIVERED UNTO THE SAINTS.

 

362

PRESENT.STAGE.OF.MY.MINISTRY.   62

 But the time come when

 the forsakening time come,

But the time come when the forsaking time come

and it's-

-it's got to come.

 It must come.

And now,

 I've got several prophets and things in here to refer to,

 to prove to you that that time come.

 And it's arrived for me.

No need of trying to rub away from it,

it's here

 and

you just must take it.

[IT GOES WITH THE FAITH ONCE DELIVERED UNTO THE SAINTS.

- IT    IS    PART    OF    HAVING    THAT    FAITH.]

 

363

PRESENT.STAGE.OF.MY.MINISTRY.title  JEFF.IN  V-11 N-2  62-  

Now,

let's just wonder,

 why would a man, a minister,

 associate like Demas was to Paul,

ever leave Paul?

You know Brother Baxter, many of you remember him.

 He used to read this about Demas.

 He said,

"You know what I'm going to do, Brother Branham, when I get to heaven, the first thing I'm going to do?"

And I said,

"What?"

He said,

"I'm going to walk right up and find out where Demas is;

 I'm going to sock him just as hard as I can."

 And said,

"He's going to turn around and say, 'Baxter, what'd you do that for?'" He said, "Why'd you leave poor little Paul when everybody forsaken him?" I don't prescribe to that; I don't believe they'll have some fights up there;

but I just thought about Brother Baxter saying that

'cause he felt so sorry for Paul.

364

PRESENT.STAGE.OF.MY.MINISTRY.title JEFF.IN 62

 Well,

what had Paul done?

 He had preached just as loyal as he could,

and

the Holy Spirit was on him.

HEBREWS 13:5….for he hath said, I will never leave thee, nor forsake thee.

M

365

EARNESTLY.CONTENDING.FOR.THE.FAITH.title  53-0614A

Now, if we'll go back to where they were first called saints and find out what kind of a faith they had,

then

we'll know more or less what they contend—

what to contend for.

 

366

PATMOS.VISION.title  JEFF.IN  ROJC 69-130  60-1204E

Now,

many times,

people put their own interpretation.

But we try the very best that we can,

 not to put any human interpretation on It:

 just read It like It is,

and say,

"That's the way It is."

And then I've always noticed,

 if you'll take just what He said,

 it'll make everything dovetail just exactly right in the Scripture.

 It's almost like putting a jigsaw puzzle together;

you have to

look at the pattern

before

you can get the puzzle together right.

SPLICING THE WORD:

[Luke 24, beginning with the 13th verse. - The Road To Emmaus.]

 

Psalm 41:9  He would be betrayed by His friends.

 

Zechariah 13:7,  He was forsaken by His disciples.

 

Psalms 35:11, accused by false witnesses, you just said He was.

 

Isaiah 53:7, He was dumb before His accusers.

 

Isaiah 50 and 6, they scourged Him, the prophet said.

 

Psalms 22, He was to cry on the cross, 'My God, My God, why hast Thou forsaken Me?'"

 

Psalms 22 again, 18, His garments was parted among them.

 

 Psalms 22:7 to 8, mocked by His enemies, the church.

 

Psalms 22 again, there was not a bone in His body to be broke, but 'they pierced My hands and My feet,'"

 

Isaiah 53:12 said He would die between malefactors.

 

Isaiah 53:9 said He was buried with the rich.

 

Psalms 16:10 said, 'I will not leave His soul in hell, neither will I suffer My Holy One to see corruption.'

 

Malachi 3 the forerunner of this Man?"

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

 

LUKE 4:

 

And the devil said unto him…    And Jesus answered him, saying, It is written.

 

And the devil said unto him…     And Jesus answered for it is written.

 

And the devil said unto him…     And Jesus answered for it is written.

 

 

367

THIRD.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0320

See how it types?

 You just run those types you're bound to come out right.

If my hand looked like...

If I've never seen myself and I see my shadow coming,

I'll know just about what I look like.

See?

 But, that's the way...

 If you want to see what is coming,

look at what has been.

 

368

CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY.title  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-7  63-0728

Now,

I don't mean to be sacrilegious by this, but it's just like putting a

 jigsaw puzzle together.

That's why we've got pictures today that looks horrible:

say,

"We are believers,"

and

a cow picking grass up in top of a tree.

It don't work.

[IT’S SO CALLED BELIEVERS THAT MAKE A HORRIBLE PICTURE.]

 

369

EARNESTLY.CONTENDING.FOR.THE.FAITH.title  55-0123E

Now,

the faith

that was once delivered unto those people,

that is the faith that we're supposed to contend.

 You know what

"contend"

 means?

Is

"to debate, or to hold to, contend for."

Earnestly contend for that faith.

 

 

 

370

ANOINTED.ONES.AT.END.TIME.title  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-3  65-

The First Pull,

 healing;

Second Pull,

 prophesying;

Third Pull,

the opening of the Word,

 the

mysteries revealed.

 

371

INDICTMENT.THE.title  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-19  63-0707

Look.

 But now they won't have the Word rule over them.

I say,

"Every one of you return back; you're baptized wrong.

You're baptized in the Catholic church."

"Who are you to tell us that?"

 It's not me;

it's the Word.

 

372

INDICTMENT.THE.title  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-19  63-0707

"We won't have It rule over us."

They take their creeds,

and

denominations,

and their--their little petty things that they believe in and has been adopted by councils of men,

and

take  it

 instead of God's Word.

 

 

373

THYATIREAN.CHURCH.AGE.title  JEFF.IN  287-327  60-1208

"Millennium is on,"

 is still

a Catholic teaching

till this day.

See?

 

ONE PIECE MISPLACED RUINS THE PICTURE.

 

375

JEHOVAH.JIREH.PT.1.title  GRASS.VALLEY.CA  JJ 37-72  62-  You say,

"It doesn't make any difference about these little things."

It certainly does.

One little word is what taken us in all this trouble;

not disbelieve it, but just

misplace it.

 

376

SERPENT'S.SEED.title  JEFF.IN  V-2 N-4  58-0928E

And this morning I had five (I believe) different articles that's come out through denomination that's absolutely not spoke of in the Bible,

 that the Protestant churches are bowing down to and teaching for doctrine the same thing that the old mother prostitute Catholic church preaches.

And come out into the Protestant church,

 and

we bow to the same thing,

which is contrary to anywhere in God's Word.

 

SIXTH.SEAL.THE.title  JEFF.IN  63-0323

Now, this may be a little shocking, and if there's a question, and you--you still ask me, if--if you want to put the question up afterwards, 'cause I just hit it, if you didn't--if you don't already know it.

 In the time of the millennium,

 it's Israel that's a nation.

 

[SOME BELIEVE WE ARE IN THE MILLENNIUM – ISRAEL IS A NATION!!!!]

 

IT IS WRITTEN:

 

REVELATION 20:2-3

  2    And he laid hold on the dragon, that old serpent, which is the Devil, and Satan, and bound him a thousand years,

  3    And cast him into the bottomless pit, and shut him up, and set a seal upon him, that he should deceive the nations no more, till the thousand years should be fulfilled: and after that he must be loosed a little season.

 

 

[SOME BELIEVE THEY ARE IN THE NEW CITY.

ALREADY IN THE NEW HEAVEN AND NEW EARTH.]

 

IT IS WRITTEN:

 

REVELATION 21:1

1       And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea.

 

NOTE:

BAPTISM.OF.THE.HOLY.SPIRIT.title  JEFF.IN  V-5 N-2  58-0928M

And no matter how real it seems when the man's a-telling it or how real his dream is or his revelation is, if it--every book in the Bible, the entire Bible doesn't reflect the light on it, that it's the truth,

 leave it alone.

Leave    it     alone.

Now, you can take a little piece of Scripture here, say, "Jesus did so-and-so and we ought to do the same." You can make It say anything you want to make It say, but it's got to come all the way through and line up perfectly with the Word of God.

Then it's right. That's God saying so.

 

377

CHRIST.REVEALED.IN.HIS.OWN.WORD.title  JEFF.  65-0822M

Now, in order to study the Scripture...

Paul told Timothy,

"Study It,

rightly dividing

the Word of God

which is Truth."

 

378

CHRIST.REVEALED.IN.HIS.OWN.WORD.title  JEFF.  65-0822M

And you must not misplace the Word.

And you must not dislocate the Word.

 And if we would do either of these,

 it throws the

whole Bible

 in a

confusion

and

in a chaos.

 

379

TEN.VIRGINS.title  JEFF.IN  ROJC 425-492  60-1211M

They thought that they were—

they were absolutely in the millennium,

because the church had received its vicar,

one like Christ to set on a throne.

And it was united with the church and state;

all had become well,

 and

that the great millennium was on.

They still believe that.

 

 

 

 

380

TEN.VIRGINS.title  JEFF.IN  ROJC 425-492  60-1211M

But that's an error,

 because the millennium can't come,

can't be issued in without the coming of Christ.

Christ brings in the millennium;

He's the Son of prosperity.

And when He comes,

then

will be a thousand years.

And when it is, there'll be the rapture of the church will go up,

and

then

 the return of Christ.

[AFTER THE RAPTURE [2ND COMING] HE WILL RETURN TO EARTH.]

381

TEN.VIRGINS.title  JEFF.IN  ROJC 425-492  60-1211M

Which, the church itself had been raptured

 and

was

 in glory

at the wedding supper

for

three and a half years.

382

EVENING.MESSENGER.title  MESA.AZ  V-8 N-5  63-0116

 I'm watching

 for the

 coming of that glad millennium day

when

sin and shame shall be destroyed forever.
