<TITLE>04. Par 11-13</TITLE>L-11 And God raised Him up, and put Him so high above every heaven, until He has to stoop over to look to heaven. That's what God did for Him. So if you want to be exalted, humble yourself. And if you exalt yourself, you'll be brought down low. And I--I think of Him, that when He had risen from the dead that morning, that He was then had His own Blood as a High Priest, and He went beyond the veils through every sphere... Satan, in the times past had men blocked off from heaven. He could not get in cun--contact with heaven. But when Jesus took His--His Blood, the first veil He rent was the veil of death, and the veil of the grave, the veil in the temple, and then the veil of sickness, the veil of fear, and every veil that there was, and unveiled God to man. Went way in above the heavens of heaven and was seated on the right hand of God and set down, as a finished work. That's right.
All above and there He opened up a channel that God used to come down through the corridors of heaven and talk to mankind in the garden of Eden, and Satan, by sin had blocked them, but the great High Priest, with His anointed, with His Blood went through every veil and ripped her open and cleared out the skies again, that God and man could be Father and son and commune again with one another. What a marvelous thing.
All the patriarchs of the New Testament, as they died, for instance Stephen when they was stoning him death, the veils was all open to his precious eyes filled with blood. But he said as he knelt on the ground, he said, "I see heaven open, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God."

L-12 Saint Paul, the veil was open, and He seen Jesus. The aged seer, out on the Isle of Patmos being exiled, out on the Alcatraz, as it was, a--a little island out on the Aegean Sea, about fifteen miles around it, a rocky island that held criminals. And he was out there for the preaching of the Word. And there on that day he was setting on the Lord's Day, perhaps looking out over the water, God loving His seer. And he said, "I heard the voice of many waters. And when I... voice of trumpet. And when I turned to see, I saw seven golden candlesticks. And One standing in the midst of them likened to the Son of man," glorified state.
Look at His eyes, no more filled with tears, they could even pierced like the sun in the middle of the day. No more nail scars in His feet, they were like brass tried in the fire. He was free from all that. He was glorified. And His hands wasn't scarred more, and He was in the midst of His Churches, a blessing.

L-13 This wonderful Easter morning, Jesus was alive and among the people. What a type it is today, that being on the Easter again, Jesus is risen from the dead. And as He went about, many of His dear people, people who loved Him, people who believed in Him, didn't know that He was alive. And so is it today. There's many, good honest-hearted Christian people who doesn't realize that Jesus Christ is alive and among us today. They fail to recognize that. They believe, "Oh, He died for my sins." They accept that. And He rose again, and He's up in heaven somewhere. But He isn't. He's right here on earth in the form of the Holy Ghost. "I'll be with you to the end of the world." Not, "I'll be up in heaven looking down at you," "I'll be with you."
