<TITLE>20. Par 221-228</TITLE>L-221 Because he was called "god," because he packed within him the Word of God, THUS SAITH THE LORD. Therefore, the word "prophet" means a... His--his interpretation isn't to be mingled with. See? If the God... He says, "If there be one among you who's spiritual, a prophet, I the Lord will speak to him. What he says comes to pass, then hear him because I'm with him. But if it doesn't come to pass, then don't hear him; I haven't sent him. That's the way you know it. And then (You see?), the Divine interpretation of the Word has to coincide with this last revelation to the church.
He's God, the Almighty. On earth He was a prophet, which is a eagle. How many know that a prophet is considered an eagle?

L-223 A eagle is the strongest bird we got, most powerful. Some of their wings stretch fourteen feet from tip to tip. He can take and fly so high that if any other bird try to follow him, he'd disintegrate, feathers would fall out of him, and he'd come apart. Because why? He's built special. And what good does it do him to get up that high if he can't see what he's doing when he's up there? Talk about a hawkeye, you ought to see a eagle eye.
A hawk can--might see a chicken. That's right, that's what's the matter with some of these hawks today. Uh-huh. But I tell you, a eagle goes so... If a hawk tried to follow him, he'd die, he'd suffocate. He can't get into those spheres that the eagle does. And then he's got a eye that he can see so far when he's got up there. So that's the reason God called His prophets eagles. He gets up there and he's a eagle; he can see way off.

L-225 And Christ on earth was an Eagle. When He died, He was a Priest, so that made Him a Lamb. Is that right? And when He comes again, He's King, so He'll be a Lion (Amen.), the Lion of the tribe of Juda. Amen. He is a Eagle, a Lamb, and a Lion (Amen.); Father, Son, and Holy Ghost; Prophet, Priest, and King; He that was, which is, and shall come, the Almighty; Alpha and Omega, from the beginning to the end, the eternal God.

L-226 Want to ask you, some of you precious Catholic people who call that the eternal sonship of God. God, eternal sonship of Jesus Christ with God, how can you say such a word? I'm a dummy with a seventh-grade education, but I know better than that. The word "Son" has to have a beginning. So how can He be eternal and be a Son? Eternity has no beginning or end. So He can't be a son, an eternal son, and then have a beginning, 'cause there is no such a thing as a eternal son. A son had a beginning, so he can't be eternal.
You see, He is the eternal God, not the eternal son (Glory.), the Almighty, Jehovah-jireh, Jehovah-rapha made manifest in flesh, "In Him dwelt the Fullness of the Godhead bodily."

L-228 And on the day of Pentecost, when that Pillar of Fire came down over the people, did you notice It separated Itself? And tongues of fire set upon each one of them: Fire, like tongues, setting on each one. What was God doing? Separating Himself into the church, among each one, giving the women, the men, and all of them, parts of His Spirit, dividing Himself among His church.
How can a man come along and say "The holy man is the pope, the holy man is the bishop"? The holy Man is Christ, the Holy Spirit in us. How can you say the laity has no word to say? Each one of you has something to say. Each one of you's got a work to do. Each one of you's got to carry a message. Glory.
The Holy Ghost separated Itself on the day of Pentecost: God separating Himself, "That day you'll know that I am in the Father, the Father in Me, I in you, and you in Me." That day, the Holy Spirit over all, in all, through all... Amen. There it is. The Holy Spirit has a right to move anywhere that He wants to, upon anybody He wants to. You don't have to take what some bishop or some priest says. He's our only Priest (It's right.), a High Priest. Now: Prophet, Priest, and King...
