very early in the morning, they came unto the sepulchre,
bringing the spices which they had prepared, and certain [others] with them.

92 God veiled in Jesus to do the work of
redemption at the cross... God could not die as a Spirit; He's the Eternal. But
He had to put on a mask and act the part of death. He did die, but He couldn't do it in
His God form. He had to do it in Son form, as Son of man on earth. See? He had
to be Son form. Then when He returned on Pentecost, He was Son of God again.
You see what I mean? Get the idea? He was...

184 Oh, brother, sister, are you catching it?
Look. Don't you see? It's been veiled through these ages according to what God
said, and It would be opened in the last days; those seven seals would be
broke, and the full thing would come into view of the people, what's took place
all along. The hour of the seventh angel's message, all the mysteries of God
should be made known in that Elijah, in this last hour: how that Christ is put out of His church as Son of God; how He's
revealed as Son of man again; how that the church is to be put
in order, and everything for the last day, and no creed, no denominations, just
absolutely the Word living in the individual. "I'll take one and leave
one. I'll take this one and leave that one." See? It's just... There's no strings, no denominations, no bindings or
nothing; it's the heart with God and Him alone. See?

E-29 Now, man cannot do that. It's supernatural.
It's something that man can't do. While I've just got a couple minute's time, I
want to explain that. See, man cannot do nothing. It's
God in man. Jesus said, "I am the Vine; ye are the branch." Now, as
long as a branch is in the Vine, it'll bear the fruit of the Vine. Now, God
always used men for His agent.
That's why He used His own Son to inveil
Himself. He come down and took the form of man in order to die the death for
man. He could not die in the Spirit, but He was put to death in the flesh.
Then God was in Abraham; God was in Isaac; God was in Jacob; God
was in Joseph; God was in David. He was in all those people back in there, them prophets and so forth. It was God working through men.

158 One day when I started to preach these
seven church ages, and I called Jack Moore, a great theologian; I said,
"Jack, Who is this Person that's standing there, 'There's One like the Son
of man standing there, hair as white as wool.'" I said, "He was a
young Man; how could He have hair as white as wool?"
He said, "Brother Branham, that was
His glorified body." That didn't ring the bell. But when I went in the
room and started praying, He let me know what it was.
See, I've always
preached that He was Deity, not just a man; He was God
manifested in the flesh, God, the Attribute of God of love, the great Attributes that come down displayed here on earth of God. Jesus was God's love, which built a body that Jehovah Himself lived in. He was the Fullness of the Godhead bodily.
What God was, He manifested through that body. That body had to die so He could
wash the Bride with His--with His--with His Blood.

31 Man will never know what that was. That's
the reason there could be no one else could ever die like that. I don't care
how much that you could be tormented, how that they might put your feet in
stocks, or saw you by inches, or burn you by inches; you could not die that
death, because your makeup's not like that. He had to be God. He had to be
more than man in the makeup, God died. He died of a broken heart, with such
grief for the world, until a chemical reaction taken place in His body that
could not take place in you. You cannot suffer like that. There's no way for you to
have that kind of a grief. So there's only One could
do it, and He did it.

E-18 Most wonderful life that was ever lived on
earth had to die when He was yet in His youth. For God had spoke; and His--His
judgments had--had to have justice. For it is written, "The day you eat
thereof that day you die." God's justice required death.
And there was no one of us could die for one another. No man could do that. He was the only Man could die that
kind of a death. For we were all borned
in sin, shaped in iniquity, come to the world speaking lies. We were guilty
from the beginning. So how could a good man die for another man when he was
guilty himself? There could not be any of us take that
kind of a position. So it had to take His death.
And God came down and was manifested in the flesh in order
to die a death. God could not die in Spirit, because God is eternal, His Spirit
doesn't die. But He was God. And He had to unfold Himself, and--and come from
glory to a manger, and take on the form of sinful flesh in order to die to secure
His Church, or to redeem His Church, to reconcile them back to Himself.
Oh, brother, sister, there's nobody could explain that, what God
did when He died for us; His flesh was put to death.

E-33 He was God made flesh to take
away sin. That's the only way it could be. God had to suffer. And God couldn't
suffer the penalty of His own judgment unless He was made flesh. Because God is immortal. He's a Spirit. Jesus said in
And a spirit could not suffer death that the spirit had
pronounced. And the Spirit did not send a prophet to take Its
place. The Spirit did not send a good man to take Its
place. The Spirit came Itself, in flesh, to take the
place of It. That's right. God taken the
place of a sinner, and died in its stead.

SUNDAY_ 60-1204M
329 Looky here. In
the beginning when Adam... I just can't get away from that, seem like
somebody's not a-getting it somewhere. Look. In the beginning... Let me show
you something again, the Holy Spirit warns me to do this. I'm leaving my
subject for a minute. When the first news come to
glory that the son had been lost, Adam, did God send an Angel? Did He
send a Son? Did He send anyone else? He came Hisself to redeem His lost son. Hallelujah. God didn't
trust it with no one but Himself. God was made flesh and dwelled among us and
redeemed man Himself. It's the... "We are saved," the Bible said,
"by the Blood of God." The mortal God was... The immortal God was
made mortal in order to take away sin, to be the Lamb Himself, to enter into
glory, veiled, and with His own Blood before Him beyond the veil.
34-4 REVELATION.OF.JESUS.CHRIST - CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.1
Would you like an Old Testament type? Let us go back to the Garden
of Eden. When the first news came to glory that the son, Adam, had been lost,
did God send an angel? Did He send a son? Did He send another one like unto us? No,
He came HIMSELF to redeem that lost son. Hallelujah! God did not entrust His
plan of salvation to another. He trusted only Himself. God was made flesh and
dwelt among us and redeemed us unto Himself. We're saved by the "blood of
God". The Eternal God in-dwelt a mortal body in order to take away sin. He
became the Lamb in order to shed His blood and enter into the veil with it.

E-77 Then when Abraham's seed through Isaac, the
natural seed, Jew, came to the end of their life, here was that same God
manifested in flesh, showing His Messiahic sign, the
same thing. Now, here comes the Gentiles, the royal
seed of Abraham through Christ, at the end of their age with two thousand years
of teachings.
Now, the Pentecostals come on with speaking in tongues,
interpretations, and so forth, and had all kinds of miracles. But remember, here
we are. We're at the end of the age, receiving the same sign that they did back
there at the end of the age, just before the fire falls. "Sirs, We Would
See Jesus." He's the same yesterday, today, and forever.
What would you look? For that life that was in Christ would be in
His church. See? God... That man was God,
represented Himself in human flesh, in human form. Today God represents Himself
in the human flesh of His church: God the Holy Ghost in His
church, moving through His church, speaking with tongues, interpreting tongues,
healing the sick, and then the last sign, the Word so manifested till It's a
discerner of the thoughts and the intents of the heart. How many see that and
believe that to be the truth? Let us pray.
TOKEN.THE_ JEFF.IN V-2 N-19
SUNDAY_ 63-0901M
12-7 What a hour that
we're now living. Oh, a blood identified--identified the believer, because that
he--the life had gone out, could not come back, so he had to have a chemistry.
He had to have it like a paint, a blood, a chemistry
that showed that life went from it.
Now, the very Spirit Itself is the Token. The Holy Spirit Itself
is the Token, not the Blood.
The Blood was shed at Calvary, that is true, but the Blood, as far
as it is, went back into the elements to--from which it come, from the food
that He lived on. But you see, inside that Blood cell was a Life that started
the blood cell to moving. If it wasn't, the chemistry had no Life in it itself;
and therefore it could not move. But when the Life come
into the chemistry of the blood, it formed a cell. It formed its
own cell, then cell after cell. And it become a Man,
and that Man was God Emmanuel in flesh. But when that Life returned back the
chemistry went to it. But the Token is the Holy Ghost upon the church, that
they see Christ.
