<TITLE>05. Par 18-22</TITLE>L-18 I said, "That's it, Lord. Lift up by faith, and leave this old earthbound bunch down here saying, 'Days of miracles is past; there's no such a thing as Divine healing. Jesus died and that's all of it. The Bible is a fable.' Just lift up by the Holy Spirit and fly away from such stuff (Hallelujah.), way on up. God is in His Creation.
Here not long ago, I'd come home so tired. The people was all around the house, coming from all over the world; and they tried to get them to go back awhile. They wanted me to go to bed. And I woke up; I had the pillow in my hand praying for it. I thought I was still in the prayer line. My wife come, got me, led me out on the porch, and we set down. She said, "Bill, you know you can't live long like that. You're going right on down. You have aged so in the last five years, you don't look like the same person."
I put my arm on hers, and I said, "Honey, when Jesus was thirty years old, they thought He was fifty."

L-19 Just then some big old sand cranes went flying across. The sun was setting. They'll all go down to the river, and they live with their kind down there all night. Then two little robins flew up, and they went into the tree.
I said, "Dear, someday when the sun of my life is setting, God will surely have a place for me to gather with those who love me." That's right. God is in His Creation. Do you believe it?
We could take all night speaking of God in His nature, but let's open up His Word. All that believes that God is in nature, let's see your hands. Now, thank you.
Now, let's see if God's in His Word. Jesus said that the Word of God was a seed that a sower sowed.

L-20 Now, you people here, you have beautiful trees, perhaps, have great apples, plums. Now look, a little tree, just about one inch high, has everything in it, all the peaches, all the apples. All that'll ever be in it, was in it when it was just one inch high. If it isn't, then where does it come from?
Now, you plant the little tree as a seed, and it drinks; it drinks, and drinks, and drinks. It has to drink more than its portion. And as it begins to drink, it pushes out limbs, pushes out blossoms, pushes out apples. The only thing the tree does is drink, and it pushes out. That's the way it is with every man or woman that's born of the Spirit of God. You are planted in Christ Jesus, and the only thing you have to do, is to drink from His promise. It'll push out Divine healing...?... everything you have need of, it'll push out, as long as you are planted in Christ Jesus.

L-21 This is what I think about Him. I believe that He is the inexhaustible Fountain of Life, and every seed that falls in there, will certainly produce what it says. God is in His Word. He made promises hundreds of years, and it comes to pass. Everything that He says, it'll produce just what it says. Do you believe God is in His Word?
The Bible said, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh and dwelled among us."
Now, we'll read... God out of--in the Word now. God in His Son because His Son was the Word. That's Saint John 1.
Now, watch. Now, was God in His universe? Yes. God in His Word? Yes. Now, we're going to see if God was in His Son.

L-22 Now, when He was here on earth, He said He was God. He acted like God. He preached like God. He healed like God. He died like a man, but He raised again like God. God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself. Do you believe that? Thank you.
Now, in this day, when they're trying to belittle Jesus... A woman just said to me, "Brother Branham, you brag too much on Jesus."
I said, "No, I can't brag enough."
Said, "You try to make Him Divine."
I said, "He was Divine."
She said, "No." Said, "He was a Prophet."
Listen, if He was only a Prophet, we are still in our sins. He was either God Himself or the biggest deceiver the world ever had. He was God manifested in the flesh.
