<TITLE>17. Par 55-57</TITLE>L-55 How many has seen that picture of the Angel of the Lord? I believe... Has Gene, Leo, they got it in here? Is it? How many has seen it? Let's see your hands. How many believes it's the same Pillar of Fire that led the children of Israel? Do you believe Jesus has turned to a Pillar of Fire now? I just want to see how well you was taught. Let me show you. When He...
How many knows that He was the Angel of the Lord, the Pillar of Fire that led the children of Israel, raise your hand? All right. "Before Abraham was, I AM." Then God was made manifest in the flesh. Do you believe God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself? All right. He said, "I came from God, and I go to God." Is that right? "I came from God; I go to God." Then if He came from a Pillar of Fire, He returned back to the Pillar of Fire.
You say, "Preacher, that's not Scripture." No, that means you don't know your Scriptures. When Paul was on his road to Damascus, what struck him down? A big Light, that even blinded his eyes. Those who stood by didn't see the Light, but Paul saw It. It was so real to him till it blinded his eyes. And He said--He said, "It's... Saul, Saul, it's hard for you to kick against the pricks."
He said, "Lord, Who are You?" What did He say?
"I'm Jesus," the Light, "I come from God: I return to God." Is that right?

L-56 When Peter was in prison, and the Angel of the Lord came in, what was It? A Light, the Pillar of Fire. Now watch, when the Jewish age closed, It closed with it. This is the closing of the Gentile age. Here is that same Pillar of Fire that the scientific world has got a picture of It. They got It in Germany, coming down, when It was anointing, going back. They got It in Switzerland. They got it in America. It hangs down there in Religious Hall of Art in Washington, DC, copyrighted, as the only supernatural Being was ever photographed in all the world. What did George J. Lacy, the head of the FBI say? He said, "Mr. Branham, the picture will never be very much while you're living, because it would make human worship. But someday this will be sold on ten cent stores, but not while you're living." See? Well, that's right; it couldn't be; the Lord won't let this be known.

L-57 They never knowed Elijah. Not making myself Elijah, now, get that wro--right. They never knew John; "It's not me; it's Him." But here He is today. Now look, if He is Divine, and that Light proves to the scientific world then, that He's the same Logos that led the children of Israel through the wilderness. And in the church tonight, if we are the members of His body, and that Angel of the Lord is here, It'll produce the same Life that It did in Jesus, or It isn't the same Lord. If that--if that is the same Logos, the same Spirit, the same God was in Jesus, if that's His picture, and He's moving here in us, It'll bring forth the same fruit, because He said, "I am the Vine; you're the branches." Is that plain?
Now, here's where to prove it. As far as I know, every person in here is a stranger to me. To know anyone to say I do know anyone, justly to say it, I know this man here is a missionary to somewhere, but I... You've been at my home, Arabs, yes, a missionary to the Arabs. Outside of that, some... I believe, if I'm not mistaken, this is Brother Lynn Jones from Australia, setting right here, that I talked with this afternoon about a meeting in Australia. And I know the man setting on the end seat, but I don't know his name. But however, Brother Jones, are you, or this man, I don't know nothing matter with you, do I?
