1157-Q-383 383. Dear Brother Branham, what is the difference when Jesus breathed on the disciples and said, "Receive ye the Holy Ghost," and when they--when they had to go to the upper room to tarry?
It was a promise He gave them, breathed upon them His promise, said, "Receive ye the Holy Ghost." It was a promise. They went to the upper room to wait for the promise to be fulfilled.
The same thing is when we lay hands upon you to be healed, then you go on about your business waiting for the promise to be fulfilled.

28-3 Then you say to me, "Adam died, Brother Branham." But remember, before Adam died he had a lamb that redeemed him. Hallelujah. Those who He foreknew He has called. He got a lamb to redeem them.
He was a type. Adam fell. Then the lamb was provided for Adam, because already in his nostrils had become the breath of the Eternal God; and he become a living soul. He was a son of God. Not his breath, as the African word (I don't know what the Greek word is for it right now,), but the African word they call "Amoyah," which means "the wind, an unseen force." Animals breathe amoyah. Sinners breathe amoyah.

28-5 Then why would we struggle for Eternal Life if that's the eternal soul breathed into us by breath. Why would we struggle for Eternal Life? It backfires, brother. See? It--it just can't do it. But God specially, upon Adam, breathed the breath of Eternal Life, and he become an eternal person with God. He had power like God: he was a amateur god. He was god of the earth, not God of heaven now, god of the earth.
And someday the sons of God will again become gods. Jesus said so: "Is not it written in your law, 'Ye are gods'? Then if you can call those who He called god, who God visited, how can you condemn Me, say, when I say I'm the Son of God?" See? Now, we're getting into something deep. Now, watch this when we drive it down.

94 Now, here He comes, torn, riven, tore to pieces. His soul went to God. God blessed Him. And then His soul returned back in the form of the baptism of the Holy Ghost that comes into every believer, to sanctify, clean up the mind, clean up the heart, and leave a portion of the Holy Ghost in there, here and there. And when the Holy Ghost is given out, that same Holy Spirit that brought the Body of Jesus out of the grave, will rapture. And that covenant has to dovetail, as He tore there and gave the Body; went back to God, and the Spirit came back to the earth. Then your Spirit will have to be the same kind of Spirit, or it'll miss that place going together. Amen. Yes, sir. Not because you make yourself, but because Something, the love of God has swept into your soul and tore every earthly idol out. There it is.

46 Again, how do we get into that Body? I Corinthians 12:13 says that by one Spirit... How does the Spirit come? Through the Sacrifice. Where did the Spirit lay? Within the Blood. Why couldn't the animal come back? It was an animal. The animal spirit could not come to the human spirit and do anything to it, because the human spirit was a higher line of life than the animal. But no other man's spirit could come back. If you've got the spirit of some ancestor, it's spiritualism. But God Himself came, that His Own Spirit, which is the highest line of Spirit there is, can come back by the form of the baptism of the Holy Spirit to the worshipper, through the Blood of Christ, and take him into the Body. He's safe.

33-3 The Church is the mystical Body of Christ, borned of the breath of God. Did you get it? The Church of God is born of the breath of God. God breathed breath into the nostrils, spiritually, of Adam, and he became a living soul. Did you know the Pentecostals, or the true Pentecostal Church is borned of the breath of God?
Let me read you something just a minute, just on that. Let me see just a minute. St. John, I believe, is where I'm going to, and we'll find out whether the Church of God is or not. St. John... Let's see, I believe that's about 16, 19, 20. All right, Here, I believe we'll have it right here. All right. Let me read you and see whether the Church is born of the breath of God or not, like Adam was in the beginning. Watch.
And the same day at evening, being the first day of the week, when the doors were shut and the disciples were assembled for fear of the Jews, Jesus came and stood in the midst of them, and said unto them, Peace be unto you.
And when he had so said, he shewed... them his hands and his side. Were... Then were the disciples glad, when they saw the Lord,
And Jesus--And then said Jesus to them again, Peace be unto you: as my Father has sent me,... so send I you.
Watch. The Father that sent Him went in Him. And Jesus, when He sends a disciple, He goes in him. Same one sent...?...
And when he had said this, he breathed on them, and said... Receive ye the Holy Ghost:... (Church borned of the breath of God.)

397-Q-87 87. Were--were we spirits then?
No, we were not even nothing then, but in God's mind we were. And He spoke it and it materialized. Jesus was slain before... How many knows that the Bible teaches that Jesus Christ was the Lamb slain before the foundation of the world. Why? God spoke it, and when He spoke it, it was as good as finished. And when He saw me, He saw you before the foundation of the world, we were only figurative in His mind. Then when we come to the world, we were both man and woman, male and female. He separated the feminish spirit from the man and made a woman out of it and left the masculine spirit in a man.
When you see a woman acting like a man, there's something wrong. You see a man acting sissy like a woman, there's something wrong.
And then He took from the man's side a rib and made a helpmate out of him, and they two are one.

10 What I mean, "attributes" was His thoughts. And a--a word is a thought expressed. And then that was in His thinking. And when He said, "Let there be," and there was..."Let there be," and there was.
And now, remember, you Christians were His thoughts before there was a world. And you are the manifestation of His thinking. Before there even was a world, you were in Christ (amen), in God in the beginning. That makes you, then (You see?) His subjects. And the whole thing is God Himself, materializing Himself tangible so He could be handled, seen, and--and so forth. And that's what God is, the whole thing.

19-2 Now, the only way up here in these spheres that you could ever be in this little inside man, you have to be foreordained, because you was with God; you're part of God.
I was in my father. I also was in my grandfather, my grandfather's grandfather. By seed, I was in that. And I was in Christ. You were in Christ before the foundation of the world. He came to redeem His own, His own that was in Him (Hallelujah.), His children, that was in Him.
He never came to--to save the devil's children. They never will know it. And they are so shrewd in the ways of their intellectual learning, that you can't compare with them at all. You can't out-talk them. But by faith you see it.
