<TITLE>08. Par 33-36</TITLE>L-33 Here some time ago when Mr. Baxter was my manager, when the king of England, when we was there to visit, when the Queen come out, lovely lady, her pretty robe on, her graying hair; and the King setting so sick at that time he could hardly stand it. He had a stomach trouble and multiple sclerosis. That was just before he was prayed for. But he could hardly stand up, but yet the royal blood of him stuck what little chest he had out, and he rode down the street in the carriage.
Mr. Baxter standing there, and when he passed I looked at him. His lips was quivering; the tears was running down his cheeks. He put his big arm around me, said, "Brother Branham."
I said, "Yes, Brother Baxter?"
He said, "You know, I'm--I'm a Canadian."
"Yes."
He said, "The man who's over our land, the king, him and his lovely bride and wife, is passing by. That's where I can't hold my emotions. I have to give vent."
I put my arm around him. I said, "Brother Baxter, as a Christian with you, what will it be some glorious day, when the King comes with His Bride? If a man could think that when seeing an earthly king, which is mortal like we are, what will it be when we see the King of kings coming in glory? What a glorious time it'll be.

L-34 He was foreshadowed in Joseph. He was foreshadowed in David. The law foreshadowed Christ. David, Christ being the Son of David, and then when Christ being in David, as a shadow, it made David when he was dethroned, rejected of his own brethren, not only his own brethren but his own blood, Absalom and his own children... Here it is. They despised their own father, and called for his blood, and dethroned him, and he went up the hill, the Mount of Olives, looking back, weeping over Jerusalem. How that he... God foreshadowed Christ in David. For when he was dethroned, turned away and His own delegates, His own people, the Jews, cried for His Blood. "Away with such a person."
He set upon Mount Olive and looked over Jerusalem and wept, saying, "Jerusalem, oh, Jerusalem, how I would have gathered you like a hen does her brood, but you would not."

L-35 Christ was foreshadowed also in Melchisedec in the priesthood in the 9th chapter and the 7th chapter of Hebrews. How that Melchisedec... Abraham also foreshadowed... All back there, all the good things, just a shadow, and how that Melchisedec... The 7th chapter and we read of Him here. We just read it for a moment.
For this Melchisedec, king of Salem, priest of the most high God, who met Abraham returning from the slaughter of the kings, and blessed him; (Amen.)

L-36 Abraham... Lot, his cousin, had backslidden. You see the real true Spirit of Christ (I hope you get it); no matter how far he had backslid, when he was in trouble, here come Abraham to him with a army. The aliens around, about, through the valleys of Sodom had come down, and had took Sodom and its king, and took in there had took Lot with him. And Abraham, his uncle, blood relation, brother's children, when he looked down and saw that the enemy had taken away his blood relation, he formed an army of his own servants, went after him.
That represented Christ. When He saw the Church of the living God had been caught away in error of the devil, He formed a legion of Angels and come to the earth to pursue the devil, overtook him (Hallelujah.), scared the enemy. Oh, how we love Him for that. Overtook the enemy, and He slew the enemy and robbed him of everything he had, cast him aside.
