“True
Oneness Pt.2” (The Evidence)
HEBREWS 1:1
1 God,
who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in
time past unto the fathers by the prophets,
HEBREWS 1:2
2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by
[his] Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the
worlds;
HEBREWS 1:3
3 Who being the brightness of [his] glory,
and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of
his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand
of the Majesty on high;
GENESIS 1:26
26 ¶ And God said, Let us make man in our
image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea,
and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and
over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the
earth.
GENESIS 1:27
27 So God created man in his [own] image, in
the image of God created he him; male and female created he them.

165 Now, then came Pentecost; God made
them one again. Oh, my. Then they had oneness with God. God was in them. Now,
Acts, if you're putting it down, Acts 4:32, the
Bible said that they were with one heart, one soul, and one mind. Oh, brother.
Why? They had been restored back to the original again. The only
thing that they had left to be disposed of was an old city, or they lived in
here, an old body called a city or a temple, that they lived in here, that had
to rot, because it has to die and corrupt. But in spirit, and life, and in
purpose, and in vision, and everything, they were one with God.

That's the Truth. But what did a bunch of people do? Gathered it right out here

17 Now, Jesus prayed in John the 17th chapter
and the 11th verse, to you who put down these Sunday school texts. I have many
of them this morning. John 17:11, Jesus prayed that the church and He would be one like He and the Father
were one. That the church, we as members of the Body of Christ, would be one
together just like He and the Father are one. And at that day we would know that
He was in the Father--or Father in Him, and He in us, that together we were
one. What a union, a oneness that would be to see God
in His church, till every member is just perfectly in harmony with each other
and God. That's the church that Jesus is coming for. That's when His prayer
will be answered, that we will be one.

18 And it is the only grounds of
fellowship that God has ever laid down for Himself and His church,
is the oneness of Himself in the people. That's the only grounds of fellowship.
And the only way that you can have those grounds is by a union to be united
with Him forever. Just like when you unite with your husband, the woman to
unite with her husband, it is a vow until death. Now, then when you unite with
God, it's the same thing that the church united with Christ, it's until death
we part. And then if you never sin or do anything wrong, you'll
be eternally united with God. And only death can take you away from God, and
not physical death, but the sin of death. Sin is death, and that takes you away
from God. So to be united with Him in the Spirit of His power is Eternal Life;
you're eternally united with God. Oh, I want to get to that after a bit. United eternally with the eternal God, perfectly in harmony with
Him, perfectly united together, a church that all, both God and His church is
one, united together.

218 Is there any here that hasn't received the
baptism of the Spirit, yet? Now, you say, "Brother Branham, "I tell
you; I shouted one time." That's very good. "I spoke in tongues
once." That's very good too. But still that ain't
what I'm talking about. How can you shout and speak in tongues and deny the
Word? The evidence of the Holy Ghost is believing
His Word, always been, every age, if you can receive the Word.
Those priests had Jesus beat a million miles when it come
to fruits of the Spirit: gentle, and peaceful, and meek, and lowly. He tore up
churches, kicked them over, and tore the people out, and called them snakes in
the grass, and everything. See? But He was that Word. He was that Word. That's
it: believe God. God is the Word. Believe It.

213 Don't. Don't, Adam. Adam. Eve, Adam, let me
cry out to you; don't listen to a lie of the Devil anymore. Stay with God's
Word; It's THUS SAITH THE LORD. Stay with His
Word. To separate from It is breaking your fellowship with God, God's oneness by
the Holy Spirit. Then if you say you got the Holy Spirit and it's not in agree
with the Word, then you're not oneness with God.
This is God's oneness, when you--the--the spirit that you
got agrees with this Word, and manifests this Word and makes this Word power to
act the same way It did there.
Let's
say it together. Oneness. [Congregation says,
"Oneness"--Ed.] with God ["with
God"] is to have ["is to have"] God's Spirit [God's
Spirit"] in you ["in you"] agreeing ["agreeing"] with
the Word ["with the Word"] all the Word ["all the Word"]
the whole Word ["the whole Word"] and to make It ["and to make
It"] manifested ["manifested"] in power ["in power"].
There you are; that's oneness with God. When that power works in
me, works in you, we are one. Amen. Brother Kidd, when the power of the Holy
Ghost in me works in you, there's no disagreement, the Word's there. It works.
Amen. It makes It what It is: God made flesh in you by
His Word, the Word made power among you, every Word.

121 When you come in this world, you were borned in sin. You didn't even come with a fighting chance.
You were borned in sin, shaped in iniquity, come to
the world speaking lies, within your own spirit the desire of sin, a lover of
sin, because you were borned in sin. You didn't have
a chance. But down inside of you somewhere (Here you come.) there was something
in there that begin to draw. If you knowed it was
something that told you there was a God somewhere, and you read His Word, then
you took the church, you took their ideas when you was told better, then you
never used a thinking man's Filter. But when you use God's Filter which is a
thinking man's Filter, because "all other filters will pass away, but Mine shall not."... And when you take God's Filter and
draw your life, your desires... If you draw your desires through God's Filter,
a thinking man's Filter, there's nothing left but the Holy Ghost.
Now, if you want the evidence of the Holy Ghost, there it
is. When that soul of yours will line with the Word of God in every respect, it
shows you've drawed your life through the thinking
man's Filter--God's Filter.

213 Oh, I'm so happy for it. My heart just rejoices and to know that His Spirit, the
Spirit that wrote the Word, agrees with the Word, proves the Lifeline, and
comes in, manifests Itself. God be with you. It's
Jesus Christ the Son of God. I've told the Truth about His Word.
Now, you--you Tabernacle people, I pray for you at other

expecting a bunch to be baptized.

66 Today I was talking with my good friend Dr.
Lee Vayle, who's present
now. And he's a--quite a theologian. And so we usually have some--have some
pretty good discussions on the Scripture. Very smart, and he asked me one time
what I thought about the initial evidence of the Holy Ghost, was it speaking in
tongues? (It's been many years ago.) I said, "No, can't see that."
He said, "Neither do
I said, "The most perfect evidence I can think of is
love." And so we got to talking on that. And then I thought, "That
sounded pretty good." So I just held that: If a man's got love. But one day the Lord in a vision straightened me out, and
He said that the evidence of the Spirit was those who could receive the Word,
neither love nor speaking in tongues, but it's receiving the Word.

1002-44 Now, that's no evidence of the Holy Ghost. See? You can't
rely upon that. You can't rely upon the fruit of the Spirit, because the first
fruit of the Spirit is love. And the Christian Science exercise more love than
anybody I know of, and they even deny Jesus Christ being Divine. See? There's only one evidence of the Holy Spirit that I know of, and
that is a genuine faith in the promised Word of the hour.

182 Now, the coming is so imminent,
the second coming of Jesus, He's gathering His elected together. I believe
that. Oh, they'll come from the east and west. Where the carcass is, the eagles
will gather. Oh, my, what is it? He's got His oneness, His true oneness,
showing Hisself among us; out of every denomination,
bringing His elect together from all kinds of churches, from everywhere,
bringing out His children, falling right in line with His Word.
What?
Now, the coming of the Lord Jesus is so imminent, the
coming of judgment, He's calling His elected together in oneness with Himself,
with the same kind of a ministry He had. You know how I shaped in the church
ages here not long ago, about the--the big tower that was built, called the
pyramid, but the headstone was never put on it. Remember how the Lutherans
came, then the Wesleys in the minority, and then down
to Pentecost. And now what He's doing, calling from that. What did He do? He
called out the elect to make the Lutheran; He called out the elect out of the
Lutheran to make the Wesleyan; He called out the elect out of that to make the
Pentecostals; now He's calling the elect Pentecostals out to
make the headstone to come into it, the very same kind of a ministry dropping
right in on it, calling His children from all denominations and all walks of
life.

209 Here we are in the end time,
coming from the east and west, north and south. What are we
doing? Getting ready for that rapture, getting ready for--holding ourselves steady for a few
minutes till every fiber is filled with the Holy Ghost.
Then she'll go up. Oh, my. Calling His
people together to Himself in the true oneness with Himself, because it's His
one Holy Spirit. "By one Spirit are we all
individually baptized into one body, collectively, the Body of Jesus
Christ." And Jesus Christ living with His Spirit in our flesh is serving
the church and doing the same things He did as a--as a sign, as an ensign to
the world, that we're in the last days, getting ready for the rapture. Oh, I
love Him, don't you?

210 I got a book here yet, but I just can't go

other time.
We are in the end. Oneness... Are you so one with God? That's the way you're
going to have to be. Yeah. We're going to have to be one with Him till... Let
the mind that was in Christ be in you. Then Christ, His Own mind in you will recognize
every Word that He wrote. It did in the apostles, rightly dividing the
Scripture, which is the Truth (See?), the Holy Spirit. If It is the Truth, then
He'll bear record of It by bringing the same sign that He give to Moses, same
sign He give to Abraham, same sign He did by Christ, same sign He did by Paul.
We're in the end time. He said that that would be. We're in the
end time. The church collectively is getting together in a union, one here and
one there, making up...
He said, "There'd be two in a field, I'll take one."
One... Look, "Two in a field," that's in the daytime, harvest, "I'll take one and leave one. There'll be two
in a bed," the other side of the world, "I'll take one and leave
one," at the coming of the Son of man. And it's so imminent,
it's so close at hand.
