“From Moral to Immortality Pt. 48 ( Matching Pieces )
II TIMOTHY 1:9
9 Who hath saved us, and called [us] with an
holy calling, not according to our works, but according to his own purpose and
grace, which was given us in Christ Jesus before the world began,
II TIMOTHY 1:10
But is now made manifest by the appearing of our Saviour Jesus Christ, who hath abolished death, and hath
brought life and immortality to light through the gospel:
MATTHEW 16:1
1 ¶ The Pharisees also with the Sadducees
came, and tempting desired him that he would shew
them a sign from heaven.
MATTHEW 16:2
2 He answered and said unto them, When it is evening, ye say, [It will be] fair weather: for
the sky is red.
MATTHEW 16:3
3 And in the morning, [It will be] foul
weather to day: for the sky is red and lowring. O
[ye] hypocrites, ye can discern the face of the sky; but can ye not [discern]
the signs of the times?

Today is the day, as I said about the prophets packing their Bibles and
impersonations. It's a great day of impersonations. Paint your steps red next
week and find out what your neighbor will do. He will paint his red, too. Wear
a little black hat to church and find out what your neighbor will do. They'll
wear a black hat, too. They want... Get a new suit of clothes and see how nice
it is, and watch your neighbor will ask where you got it. It's an
impersonation. They want to match. Want to be matched.
And,
brother, I don't care if my trousers match with my coat or my shirt matches my
tie. I want my experience to match God's Bible. That's the kind of matching that the church ought
to do. It's exactly right. My Lord raised from the
dead, and He's alive tonight. He's your Lord, also. And He's here to bless you
and to help you.

I've had this remark, and I don't mean it personally, I don't mean any
harm by it; but sometimes when I get ready go to church, my wife will come over
and say, "Billy, do you think that that tie matches that suit?"
I say,
"I don't know, honey." And I'll have on a pair of red socks, and
black trousers, and a blue tie, and, oh, I don't know.
She said,
"That don't match."
I said, "Honey, I'm not concerned
whether my trousers match my coat or whether my tie matches my suit. I'm
concerned about one matching. I want my experience to match God's Bible."
That's where we ought to match: God's requirement.

Hallelujah. Can you see, the Word takes flesh.
There you are. God's going to have a church. It's going to be borned of the Word of God, because it is the living Word of
God. Do you see it?
"How
do you know it?"
"Why,
it's going..."
"You
know what you're going to be called from this on? You're going to be
called..."
"I
don't care what I'm called, that has nothing about it. Be it unto me according
to the Word of the Lord."
Oh, could
everybody say that today? Oh, if--if people could really from your heart, all
of us could say that (See?): "Be it unto me according to Thy Word,
Lord." Really mean
it. One or two or somewhere out in there It's going to pick up some
predestinated that really means that, and, brother, you're going to see sparks
flying right then (That's right.), when you really got that there to meet that
what's coming, when that irrigation begins to fall on that Word. Yes, sir.

Now, we find this perfect Masterpiece that God had completed. Now, we
notice that He was all that it was promised to be. He's all the promises, all
of the prophecies, everything that God had made a promise of: "Thy Seed
shall bruise the serpent's head." Now, He could not bruise it with the
law. He could not bruise it with the prophets. But He did do it when the
woman's Seed became the Masterpiece: Christ. He was the Stone that Daniel saw
hewed out of the mountain. He was the One could smite. He's the One that could
bruise, bruise the serpent's head.
His life matched exactly the life of
Moses. His life matched David. Let's see if it was, if He's the Matching-piece.
