<TITLE>03. Par 10-14</TITLE>L-10 Not long ago we were going together across the country, and he said to me, said, "Brother Branham, you know my wife don't believe in this," and said, "every night when I go to church and come home," said, "oh, she just starts bawling me out when I hit the door," and said, "I get her by the hand; she's little and hold her, and I try to cast that devil out as hard as I can."
Remind me of your message this morning, sir. Said, "I try to cast that devil out, and I said, 'Devil, you come out of my wife. Devil, you come out of my wife. Honey, you're possessed with the devil. Come out of there, devil.'"
"Oh," I said, "that's fine, Brother Fandler but you--you go at it the wrong way."
And he said, "Well, how do you do it?"

L-11 I said, "When you come home, buy her a box of candy. Give it to her when you come in at the door. Put your arms around her." I said, "That's the way you cast out a devil." Love casts out fear, doesn't it? Love...
Friends, the whole world is dying for love. That's one of the great things that we leave out of our Pentecostal blessing too much of it, is love that mixes it together, the mortar that makes gifts and all the things of God operate perfectly is love one for the other. "This will all men know that you're My disciples."
Let us, before we approach His Word now, bow our heads just a moment.

L-12 Almighty and omnipotent God, we thank Thee this morning above all things for Jesus, Thy Son, and for His love to us, that when we were yet sinners He died in our stead, reconciling us back to the fellowship, back to sonship through His Blood.
And we pray this morning, that the going forth of the Word will catch every heart, my heart too, Lord. Prepare us for the coming of the Lord as this little lady has just prophesied that He's done left His Throne on His way. We truly believe that Lord. Rebekah watering the camel that would take her to meet her lover, yet she had never seen him, but it was love at the first sight. We thank Thee, Lord. We believe that we... When we see Him, it'll be love when we know that He was the One Who died and redeemed us.

L-13 Then in that great field somewhere between here and glory when we crown Him King of king and Lord of lords, and Angels stand with bowed heads not knowing what we're doing... They never was lost like we were. And when we sing the songs that He redeemed us, what a glorious time that'll be. We're looking forward for that time. May our hearts be prepared.
Sanctify the Word that will be read, and may It become Spirit and Life to us, that we might correct our lives and live for Him Who died for us. This we ask in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-14 Turn with me for just a few moments. I want to read a little Scripture here to see if I can draw from It some context for the next fifteen to twenty minutes, and I... Let's turn to Matthew the 19th chapter as we read.
And it came to pass, that when Jesus had finished these sayings, he departed from Galilee, and came into the coasts of Judaea beyond Jordan;
And great multitudes followed him; and he healed them there.
And the Pharisees also came unto him, tempting him, and saying unto him, Is it lawful for a man to put away his wife for every cause?
And he said unto them, Have you not read, that he which made them at the beginning made them male and female,
And said, For this cause shall a man leave his father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh?
Wherefore they are no more--they are no more twain, but one... What therefore God has joined together, let no man put asunder.
They say unto him, Why did Moses then command to give a writing of divorcement, and to put her away?
He said unto them, Moses because of the hardness of your hearts suffered you to put away your wives: but from the beginning it was not so.
I want to take a little subject this morning or--or text, if we should call it that, of the text, "It Wasn't So From The Beginning."
