<TITLE>21. Par 74-76</TITLE>L-74 Now, when Jesus come and made Himself known to the Jews, because they were looking for a--a God prophet to rise which would be the Messiah... How many understands that?
Deuteronomy 18:5, when God said, "I'll raise up a prophet among your brethren, it's a--like unto Moses, and it'll come to pass that every soul will not hear this prophet, he will be cut off from amongst the people." And they were looking for a prophet, a God prophet, a man, Emmanuel.
He spoke in Isaiah and said how that... "I'll give you an eternal sign, that a virgin shall conceive and bear a child, and He will be Emmanuel." God with us, God manifested in the flesh.
See, all it is is God condescending, God, holy, above sin. Sin had not yet been judged. So to make Hisself on the law of redemption, He had to be a near Kinsman on the law of redemption, like Ruth, and Naomi, Boaz. God made Hisself a body, His Son, created in the womb of Mary, a blood cell. You believe that? And Jesus was born without sexual desire. He was born a virgin birth. That blood cell was made by Jehovah God.

L-75 Then after He was baptized in water, John saw the Spirit of God descending like a dove and going on Him, a Voice saying, "This is My beloved Son (correctly like this) in Whom I am pleased to dwell in."
God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself. Jesus said, "It's not Me that doeth these things; it's My Father. I--the Son can do nothing in Himself but what He sees the Father doing."
And then God was with us, God above us, God with us in Christ, Emmanuel, God with us. And then when that blood cell was broke at Calvary and the Blood was shed, the Spirit... Under the old dispensation, sin was just covered, not forgiven, covered, because the blood of goats and bulls would not take away sin; it only covered it.
But when the--the--the life that was in the animal that died, the life could not come back and be a spirit with the human being, because it was animal life without a soul. But when Jesus died, it was a soul of God. And when that cell was broke, it sanctified a Church that the Holy Spirit could live in us who were sexual born. Then it's God above us, God with us; now it's God in us.
"A little while and the world won't see Me no more," said Jesus. That's Kosmos, the world order. "It won't see me no more. Yet ye shall see Me ('Ye,' the Church, the believers), for I (And anyone with a grammar school education knows 'I' is a personal pronoun.), I will be with you, even in you to the end of the world, Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today and forever."

L-76 If the first bunch of people... He's the Vine (John 15), and we are the branches. Now, the vine does not bear fruit. The branch bears fruit as it's energized by the vine. And if the first branch out of that vine produced a church that wrote a book of Acts, the second branch will do the same thing. Every branch that comes out of that vine will be energized by the same life that's in the vine. Amen.
I'd like to come down sometime and talk this over with you. Oh, it's no secret what God can do, if He can get people who will believe Him.
Now, there's... I hope there's no one leaves here tonight disappointed. There's no reason for it. Some of you here, is here maybe with heart trouble, may not live but just a little while. Others with cancer won't live but a little while. Your doctor's done all he knows to do. Here it goes, two or three people setting here in wheelchairs. Might live a normal life a long time, but you will never come out of the wheelchair unless God helps you. See? That's right.
