II CORINTHIANS 3:1
1 ¶ Do we begin again to commend ourselves? or need we, as some [others], epistles of commendation to you, or [letters] of commendation from you?
II CORINTHIANS 3:2
2 Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men:
II CORINTHIANS 3:3
3 [Forasmuch as ye are] manifestly declared to be the epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but with the Spirit of the living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables of the heart.
RECOGNIZING.YOUR.DAY_ JEFF.IN V-5 N-1 SUNDAY_ 64-0726M
24 Now, my subject this morning is: "Recognizing Your Day and It's Message." We see from last Sunday's lesson, as we taught the Feast of the Trumpets... And I want to call to your attention now, the time--time of Israel in God's timepiece.
We are dealing today upon a Sunday school lesson that I want you to realize and recognize the time that we're living. We're just about to run out, as you see. And then by this you should know the very hour, and time, and sign, and Message that you are to receive.
WHY.LITTLE.BETHLEHEM_ PHOENIX.AZ V-9 N-9 SATURDAY_ 63-1214
127 I don't worship a Jew; I worship God when I worship Jesus Christ. I don't worship some fiction or some kind of a historical something. I worship Jesus Christ, the Presence of Jesus Christ right now, which is His Word that's manifested in this age.
God in every age allotted His Word from the beginning, and every time in which one of those ages passed by, God sends down an anointed prophet for that age. In the days of Noah, days of all the rest of them, when He made the promises... I don't care what kind of a condition the church got into, He always does that, He sends a man anointed. For the Word of the Lord comes to the prophets. And here he stood there, each prophet, and was condemned by the organizations of that day, but he stood on the Word and made the Word live.
WE.HAVE.SEEN.HIS.STAR_ TUCSON.AZ V-13 N-8 MONDAY_ 63-1216
11 Now, let us bow our heads just a moment while we speak to the Author of this Word.
Almighty God, we thank Thee tonight from the very depths of our hearts for the love of Christ that's been shed abroad in our hearts in these last days by the Holy Spirit. We thank Thee because that we have the privilege of assembling ourselves together and worshipping Thee, and having this blessed assurance that someday You're coming for Your Church. We thank Thee, to be the Light-bearers of this age, to be here ready to manifest the promised Word for the age that we're now living in, knowing that in the beginning You 'lotted out Your Word. Knowing the end from the beginning, each age You allotted Your Word to that age. Somehow, we don't know how it ever happened, but in each one of those ages, as we look back upon Thy Word, and we see that there was an anointing come in that age that fulfilled that Word... And in the days that we are now living in, there is a allotted Word, a promise for this age. We believe that the Holy Spirit is here on earth now, trying to find hearts to manifest and to bring to pass by vindicating the Word that's now prophesied for this day and hour.
PARADOX_ TAMPA.FL SATURDAY_ 64-0418B
E-78 Now, notice the virgin birth, and the prophets... All right.
Now, today, He's still alive. He's still here. He's proving Hisself by His Word. This Word is God. You believe it? And then this Word is allotted here for this day. There's got to be somebody come by, that that Word can become quickened, and make that Word live. That's when He was borned a virgin birth. It was unusual, out of the ordinary. These things are out of the ordinary. And He couldn't help it, no more than Joseph could help being who he was.
THINGS.THAT.ARE.TO.BE_ RIALTO.CA V-4 N-6 SUNDAY_ 65-1205
11 I believe that God in the beginning, that Noah was the Word for that day, for His message. Now, along come--after that come Moses. Now, Moses could not have taken Noah's Word. He could not build a ship and floated them out of Egypt down the Nile River to the promised land and so forth. His message didn't work in Noah's day; that was the part of God's Word that was vindicated to be Truth by Moses. Neither could Jesus have had Moses' Word. And the--Luther could've not maintained the Word of the Catholic church. Wesley, he could not maintain Luther's Word. And the Pentecostal, they could not take the Methodist Word. They... See, the church is growing. Each age, it's allotted in the Scripture here. So God, through the Holy Spirit, reveals His Word by manifesting It and vindicating It Hisself, showing that It's His Word being brought to pass in the day that Its promised.
MAN.THAT.CAN.TURN.ON.LIGHT_ JEFF.IN V-6 N-1 SUNDAY_ 63-1229M
105 Now, in all ages God has set forth so much of His Word for each age. God always sends somebody that that Word can get into and show the Light of It. That... In every age it does the same thing, always does that.
He was the fulfillment, as I said, of all of the Divine, holy powers of the prophets. They were minor gods. When the Word of the Lord came to a man, Jesus said Himself that he was a god. You know that. He said, "If your law said, and your fathers back there, called them who the Word of God came to--called them gods, how can you condemn Me say--when I said I'm the Son of that God?" See? When the very God Himself Who spoke the Word through the prophets, He was the manifestation of that spoken Word. And if the prophet was called a god because he was the manifestation of another prophet's Word, how could you condemn Him when He was the same thing? He was the Son of God. As He shall be called the Son of God.
He was the long promised Messiah that the world had waited on He was the Messiah's promise made manifest.
TURN.ON.THE.LIGHT_ PHOENIX.AZ V-22 N-3 SATURDAY_ 64-0125
33 Nothing can live, natural or spiritual, without His Light, and His Word is Light and Life.
But when He sends His Light and makes It known to the people, and then It is rejected, then what about that? That's what we want to talk about this morning is: rejecting this Light, by them It's sent to, rejected just like it was then. "Behold My servant, in Whom I have delighted in." He's a Light to the Gentiles. He's a Light to the world. He was the Light of the world, but He was rejected. That's the sad part.
And it meets that condition every time that God manifests His Light, the world itself rejects that Light. Why? It's written right in the Bible. Each age, God has 'lotted so much of His Word for each age, and He always sends somebody to manifest that Word.
SIRS.WE.WOULD.SEE.JESUS_ DALLAS.TX V-19 N-8 WEDNESDAY_ 64-0304
28 God, knowing the end from the beginning; therefore, He lotted to His--His--the world a certain part of Word for each generation as they come along. He sent prophets in the Old Testament. We are taught in Hebrews 1, "God, in sundry times and divers manners spake to the fathers through the prophets, in this last day through His Son, Christ Jesus." Now if we'll examine that Scripture real well...
CHRIST.IS.IDENTIFIED.THE.SAME_ TAMPA.FL WEDNESDAY_ 64-0415
E-36 So in each age, when God 'lots His Word for each age, then when that Word is ready to be manifested... Now, search the Scriptures. Don't just take my word. When that Word is ready to be manifested, then God sends down a prophet and reveals the Word to His prophet. The Bible said the Word of the Lord came to the prophets. And He does nothing till He reveals it to His prophet. A prophet is who the--where the Word of the Lord came. Like in the days of Noah, in the days of--of Elijah, and the days of--of Moses, and so forth, Jeremiah and Isaiah, and who more could I say, that He came to that, and they manifested or fulfilled that Word.
UNVEILING.OF.GOD_ JEFF.IN V-9 N-1 SUNDAY_ 64-0614M
129 In type, Moses coming from the Presence of God with the Word of God for that age... Now, watch, we're now in Exodus 19. Don't miss this now. Exodus 19, Moses is coming from the Presence of God, or 20 and 21, 19:20 and 21. Moses is coming from the Presence of God; he has been into the Word. The Word's been wrote, and he in the Presence of God with the Word, he had the Word for that age. There's a Word for each age. And Moses coming forth, his face shined so. See? The Word was in him, ready to be manifested, give out to the people.
The true Word, God had wrote It and It was with Moses. Notice It was with Moses and was ready to be manifested. He was the Word to them; he was the living Word hid, veiled himself; Moses had to put a veil over his own face. Why? He was that Word. Amen. Until that Word was made known, Moses had to veil himself. Amen. Do you see It? Wherever the Word is, It's veiled.
FEAST.OF.THE.TRUMPETS_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-16 SUNDAY_ 64-0719M
10-4 Now remember, God is the Word. And each age He has 'lotted the Word for each age that would be on the earth. He 'lotted It in the church age, and the Seven Seals revealed every bit of It. See?
Why did there--was there mysteries that was still hid? Revelations 10, we find at the end of the seventh angel's Message that these mysteries that had been hid, would be revealed, Revelations 10:1 to 7. Notice, the reason is because there had been no prophets during this age. The Bible said that God does nothing till He reveals it to His prophets, His servants, the prophet. And the Word of the Lord in all ages has always come to the prophets, never to a system, never to a group.
GOD'S.CHOSEN.PLACE.WORSHIP_ JEFF.IN V-5 N-7 SATURDAY_ 65-0220
50 Notice, all seven Jewish feasts was kept in the same place. They never kept one feast here for the Methodists, and one over here for the Baptists, one over there for the Presbyterian, one back here for the Catholic, and one for the Protestant. All seven feasts was kept in the same place.
It's a very beautiful type here. We've just went through the Seven Church Ages, going to show that God keep all seven church ages in the Word. For each church age produced a part of the Word. And whenever they produced it, and they saw the Light... Just like the people who first discovered to baptize in Jesus' Name. What did they do? They made a denomination out of it, and it died right there. Then God moved right out into somebody else. He will not stay in one of those creeds and dogmas. He has nothing to do with it. There's nothing perverted about God. God's Word's holy, unadulterated. Christ is God's center Spot of worship. He is God.
241-2 THYATIREAN.CHURCH.AGE - CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.6
As we have already stated, Jesus identifies Himself with the messengers of each age. They receive from Him the revelation on the Word for each period. This Word revelation brings the elect of God out of the world and into full union with Jesus Christ. These messengers are called stars because they shine with a borrowed or reflected light of the Son, even Jesus. They are also called stars because they are 'holders of light' at night. Thus in the darkness of sin, they bring the light of God to His people.
154-3 SMYRNAEAN.CHURCH.AGE - CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.4
Before I close this subject, I know there is a question in your minds. You will want to know if I believe in the doctrine of pre-existence. I don't believe in that Mormon doctrine of the pre-existence of souls any more than I believe in reincarnation or the transmigration of souls. Be careful here and see this. It is not the person that comes predestinated eternally from God, IT IS THE WORD, OR SEED. That is it. Way back there, too far back for the human mind to grasp, the Eternal God with eternal thoughts, thought and decreed, "JACOB HAVE I LOVED, BUT ESAU HAVE I HATED, (Romans 9:13) AND NEITHER WAS BORN, AND NEITHER HAD DONE GOOD OR EVIL." See, it was the THOUGHT, and then that thought became expressed, and God bought back Jacob, because Jacob alone was SEED. Jacob, alone had the seed; that is why he had respect to the birthright and covenant of God. If you are true seed, you will hear that Word; the Spirit will baptize you into the body of Christ, filling you and empowering you, and you will receive the Word for your day and age. See how clear the true evidence becomes when the Word is revealed to you? Again, note, Jesus was the Royal Seed. He lived in a human body. When the Spirit called to Him (the Word-Manifested Thought), He went to Jordan and was there baptized in water. Upon obeying the Word, the Holy Spirit came upon Him and the voice said, "This is My beloved Son, hear ye Him." The voice did not say, "This has become My Son," Jesus WAS the Son. The Holy Ghost positioned Him as that Son before them all. Then having been filled thus (and the same pattern holds at Pentecost and ever after), He went in demonstrated power, receiving the full revelation of God and from God, for that day.
