I PETER 1:13

  13       Wherefore gird up the loins of your mind, be sober, and hope to the end for the grace that is to be brought unto you at the revelation of Jesus Christ;

 

I PETER 1:14

  14    As obedient children, not fashioning yourselves according to the former lusts in your ignorance:

 

I PETER 1:15

  15    But as he which hath called you is holy, so be ye holy in all manner of conversation;

 

I PETER 1:16

  16    Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.

 

I PETER 1:17

  17    And if ye call on the Father, who without respect of persons judgeth according to every man's work, pass the time of your sojourning [here] in fear:

 

I PETER 1:18

  18    Forasmuch as ye know that ye were not redeemed with corruptible things, [as] silver and gold, from your vain conversation [received] by tradition from your fathers;

 

I PETER 1:19

  19    But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot:

 

I PETER 1:20

  20    Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,

 

I PETER 1:21

  21    Who by him do believe in God, that raised him up from the dead, and gave him glory; that your faith and hope might be in God.

 

I PETER 1:22

  22    Seeing ye have purified your souls in obeying the truth through the Spirit unto unfeigned love of the brethren, [see that ye] love one another with a pure heart fervently:

 

I PETER 1:23

  23    Being born again, not of corruptible seed, but of incorruptible, by the word of God, which liveth and abideth for ever.                                  

 

PARADOX.A_  CHICAGO.IL  V-21 N-3  THURSDAY_  63-0801

  98    That virgin birth was a mystery to the people; they couldn't understand it, just like the new birth is today. The new birth is a mystery to the people. They can't understand it. They don't know what you mean. They have belittled it, bring it down, saying, "Well, because you believe something." The devils believe the same thing and tremble. It isn't what you believe; it's what God has actually done. The new birth is a birth. It was a new. It was a paradox, when God brought new Life to the human race. To reject it, is eternal separation. To receive it, is Eternal Life. You have...

 

GOD'S.PROVIDED.WAY_  BAKF.CA  V-22 N-6  THURSDAY_  64-0206E

  12    And I say tonight, that if we obey God's provided way, leprosy will leave, sickness will leave, everything will leave. But we've got to come His way for this day. Now, dipping in the Jordan wouldn't do any good now. That was for Naaman. The law was for the--for the Jew; grace is by Christ.

But each age has its part of the Gospel already predicted. This Bible is the complete revelation of Jesus Christ. There could be no more added to It, or anything taken away from It; the person who does it is cursed. We cannot add nothing to It, take nothing from It. We must look in here and see what's promised for this age, and then see it happen. That's God interpreting His own Word. When He said, "A virgin shall conceive," she did. That's God's interpretation of it. What He promises, that He does.

 

CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-7  SUNDAY_  63-0728

  39-4    And Paul knew Him by revelation. That's how we know Him today, is only--the only way you could know Him. Not say, "I'm Methodist." That means nothing. "I'm Baptist." That means nothing. "I'm Catholic." That means nothing. But by the revelation that God has revealed the Word to you. He is the Word, and the Word, how you know It's revealed, It lives Itself and expresses Itself through you. Oh.

Churches has long forgotten that great revelation. That's right. Revelation of--of the Truth, they have forgotten it. They went to...

Now, when Luther raised up, he was a great man. He had the revelation of that day. But what happened? A bunch of "Rickies" got in, flattop haircuts (as we call them today), and Rickettas, and all of them, they got around there, and the--and the first thing you know it's that...

 

PATMOS.VISION_  JEFF.IN  ROJC 69-130  SUNDAY_  60-1204E

  71    Now, ask God to... While we're talking on Revelations, ask Him to give you a revelation of this. For it can only be known by revelation, and you can only be saved by revelation. You have a knowledge of it intellectually, but you can't be saved until it's revealed to you. "No man can call Jesus the Christ, only by the Holy Ghost." That's what the Bible says. No man can say Jesus is the Christ until he has received the Holy Ghost. He might say, "The pastor said so; the Bible said so." Them are true. "The church says so." That is true. But you don't know yourself until the Holy Ghost has revealed it to you, and He's become in you. "No man can call Jesus the Christ, only by the Holy Ghost." Not by knowledge, not by intellectual.

 

COME.LET.US.REASON.TOGETHER_  CHICAGO.IL  TUESDAY_  55-1004

  E-83    Is somebody short, Brother Wood? You can't--no--oh, everything's all--all right. Then if you... Then see, then I move up, as it was, strain. See? I go in. Now, say it's got a--a--a--a cancer. My, when that leaves me, I--right then, it's worse then preaching two hours. See? And maybe, that don't do it. I look back at the patient, they're--they--they're way down here yet, when they ought to be up here.

See, the only thing that does, is to bring faith up. Only way that anybody can be healed... Divine healing is by faith. Is that right? Only way you can be saved is by faith, not by going and doing something; you got to have faith, not by works, by faith. See?

 

EARNESTLY.CONTENDING.FOR.THE.FAITH_  CHICAGO.IL  SUNDAY_  55-0123E

  E-28    Paul was down here in the natural realm with his Ph.D. See? He didn't know... He had an intellectual faith, but he didn't have a Divine faith. There's quite a difference in me having an intellectual faith than a Divine faith. There's where you, my Baptist friends, fail to go on. You get the intellectual faith by that, but it must be a Divine revelation of Jesus Christ to you that just came out of the heart. The intellectual faith is not enough. That's all right, but it only brings you to the Holy Spirit. The Holy Spirit is a personal experience of the birth, the new birth, regeneration, making a new creature in Christ.

 

CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-7  SUNDAY_  63-0728

  45-1    Notice, God holds this key alone. No theologian can tell you. It's not known; it's hid from them. They know nothing about it. So the schools... "Well," you say, "I got a Ph. LL.D." You only make... To me and I believe unto God and to any real, true believer, that means you're just that much farther away; you just backed off. God is not known by education; He's not known by how to explain it.

God is known by simplicity and of revelation of Jesus Christ in the most illiterate person. See? Not your theology; it's a revelation of Jesus Christ. "Upon this rock, I'll build My Church." No other rock's accepted; no other thing's accepted; no other Roman rock; no other Protestant rock; no other school; no other nothing; but on exactly the revelation of Jesus Christ in a new birth. He born in there and injects His own Life, and your life is gone, and the Life of Christ is projecting Itself through you with the preeminences to the people that they see the very Life, and works, and signs and wonders that He did is doing the same thing through you. Outside of that, the rest of it's not even called to at all.

 

CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-7  SUNDAY_  63-0728

  36-4    Look, Christ in you makes Him the center of Life of the revelation. See? Christ's Life in you makes Him the center of the revelation. Christ in the Bible, makes the Bible a complete revelation of Christ. Christ in you makes you the complete revelation of the whole thing. See what God's trying to do?

What is the new birth then? You say, "Well, Brother Branham, what is the new birth?" It is the revelation of Jesus Christ personally to you. Amen. See? Not you joined a church, you shook a hand; you done something different; you said a creed; you promised to live by a code of rules; but Christ, the Bible... He is the Word that was revealed to you. And no matter what anybody says, what takes place, it's Christ. Pastor, priest, whatever it might be... It's Christ in you. That is a--the revelation that the Church was built upon.

 

CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-7  SUNDAY_  63-0728

  37-2    That's Christ's idea. That's God's idea. The new birth reveals this. And if a man says he's borned again and try to place these promises of Christ in this last day to some other age, making Him Christ yesterday, but not today, then that man or that person has been in a--a delusion by Satan. And if that man says that he believes that, and it doesn't manifest itself through him... Jesus said in Mark 16, "These signs shall follow them that believe... into all the world and to every age." Casting out devils, and speaking with tongues, and--and all of these great manifestations of gifts that would follow, that they shall--not that they maybe, they ought to; they will. And heavens and earth will pass away, but His Word won't.

 

CHRIST.IS.THE.MYSTERY_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-7  SUNDAY_  63-0728

  37-4    The new birth is Christ, is a revelation. God has revealed to you this great mystery, and that's the new birth. Now, what are you going to do when you get all that group together, where the revelation is perfectly in harmony, and God expressing it through His Word by the same actions, the same things that He did, making the Word manifest? Oh, if the Church only knew its position. It will one day. Then, the rapture will go when it knows what it is.

Now, notice. You say, "Brother Branham, but that--that ain't..." Oh, yes, it is, too. It is the Truth.

 

BIRTH.PAINS_  PHOENIX.AZ  V-3 N-4  SUNDAY_  65-0124

  27-1    Notice quickly now. Now, she is in that stage; beyond a shadow of doubt we're in the Laodicea church age. Now, her messenger is promised in Malachi the 4th chapter. He's promised to do it, and the Message is to bring back the Word--bring the people back to the Word. Birth is to be... She's to be delivered of a new birth from--according to Malachi 4.

In the church world today, there is two systems a-working. Now, listen real close. Now, I want to see if you're going to say "Amen" on this. There's two systems working in the church world today. (I'm going to get this off my shoulder, and then I have it over with.) We all know that--that's the Word of God and the denominational system. There is the two systems at work. Just as they was Jacob and Esau, one after the Spirit, the other one after the flesh. And what is it? Esau and Jacob was fighting in the wombs of the mother even to the time they were born. And so is the denominationals and the Word fighting one against the other. They have been since Luther first brought the first reformation. I hope that's simple enough that you can understand it. See?

These men, if they can pick up this and go out with it, they can make more sense to it (See?) to bring it to a place where... I just want to lay this seed, but I hope they make it come to life.
