<TITLE>08. Par -</TITLE>L-116-61 There was three elements came from Christ's body. And the same elements came from His body is what we use to go into His Body. There was water (Is that right?), Blood (Is that right?), and Spirit. And Jesus--and the Scripture said, "There are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Son, and the Holy Ghost. These three are One; they are One. But there's three that bear record in earth; they're not one," he said, "but they agree as one: water, Blood, and spirit." Is that right?
Now, you cannot have the Father without having the Son. You can't have the Son without having the Holy Ghost, because--but you can be justified without being sanctified. And you can be both justified and sanctified and still not have the baptism of the Holy Ghost. See? That's true. That's Scripture. "These three," he said, "that bear record in earth, water, Blood, and spirit; and they agree in one." See? They are not one, but they agree in one, because it's the same Spirit with a measure. God gives us the Spirit in measure.

L-117-63 Now, Luther, under justification, that's what he preached. Is that right? Luther preached, "The just shall live by faith." And he had a great message. And that was a portion of the Holy Ghost. Then Luther, when the message come forth, God was going to raise up His church and send It out greater (Oh, my.), Luther said, "Oh, we believe we've got it here."
But John Wesley said, "Oh, no." Him and George Whitfield and them, they said, "We believe in sanctification, the--as being the second definite work of grace." Is that right? And they preached the Blood. Well, if Luther didn't want to move, God just give it to the Wesleyan Methodists. See? And they had it. And they had a revival that swept the world.

L-117-65 And the real church... Well now, when that time comes along... Now, along comes the Holy Ghost evidence of signs, wonders, and miracles. Now, Wesley don't want to agree with this. Now, if Wesley was on earth and Martin Luther was on earth at these times, they would agree with it, but they just got about the second round of a--of--of four or five rounds of apostles passed through it, and they just sang it all away.
Now, the Pentecostal received and believed in speaking in tongues. Then they turned it into initial evidence, that everybody had to speak with tongues. That's an error. But now--now they come back... Those were God given traits. Just like I can't help, 'cause I've got blue eyes, or... God just give it. That's His gift in the church. God set them in. "God hath set in the church..." See?

L-117-67 Now. But when they come along with that... Now, they had a great blessing, went far beyond the Lutheran, or the--the Methodists, either one. And now, they've organized in such a way until they're worse than the Methodist and the others--the Pentecostals. And then, they got to a place where the second and third round... It's been about forty years since they begin to receive speaking in tongues. But this tree of God has nine different fruits on it. And now, any of these fruits you can have. See? God has sent them, but altogether comes out of the tree.
Now, justification, look at it...

L-117-68 Look at this morning's lesson. When the judgment was set, and the books were opened... Now, Jesus came with ten thousand times ten thousands of saints, and then the judgment was set. Here they all are around the white throne judgment (as we went through the Scripture with it), and the books were opened; and another Book was opened which was the Book of Life. And these in the rapture was judging them. Is that right? Them had done went home and received their glorified bodies, and lived through the millennium, was here in the white throne judgment, judging those. He said He would separate the sheep from the goats.
Now, you say here, "Why, now look." You say, "Is that come up... Whereabouts, Brother Branham?" In the white throne judgment.
