<TITLE>32. Par 282-300</TITLE>L-282 That's the birthplace of postmillennium. And that's the reason the Catholic doesn't teach the coming of Jesus to this day. It's all in the church. This is the millennium. The church owns everything. This is it. See, postmillennium (oh, my) without the return of Jesus Christ. This lasted unto the assassination of Constantine which come between 312 and--and... A.D. 312 and 606. Then Boniface III was made the universal bishop or pope over the whole universal church.

L-283 I believe we'll finish this verse, and then I'll have it. Praise God. See? So now, I just held just for a minute. 17th verse...
He that has an ear, let him hear what the Spirit--Spirit says unto the churches; To him that overcometh will I give to eat... the hidden manna, and will give him a white stone, and in the stone a new name written, which no man knoweth save he that receive it.
Would you rather wait till tomorrow night, or have it now? [Congregation answers, "Now."--Ed.] All right.

L-285 Heavenly Father, I pray that You'll let the people understand now, in the Name of the Lord Jesus, that they might understand everywhere (and where the tapes go), that they might know that I--I say this because it--it is the Divine interpretation Thou hast given me. Amen.

L-286 ... he that overcometh...
The first thing I want you to remember: that each one of these messages is addressed not to the church, but to the angel of the church. Look back here, the first one, the church of Eph... Unto the church... To the...
Unto the Angel of the church of Ephesus... (That right?)
All right, the next church age, the 8th verse:
... unto the Angel of the church of Smyrna...
All right, and the 12th verse:
... unto the Angel of the church of Pergamos... (Is that right?)
The message is addressed to the leader of the church. God help that guy that'll pull away from that message. But it was given to an angel, and the angel was in His hand under His Own control, giving it thriving power from Him, from His right hand. They're His right hand; that is, they're in supreme power while they're here on the earth; because they are the Lights from Him, giving the Light to that church age. See, "Unto the angel of the church..." addressed to the star of the age that is responsible. The angel of the church is responsible if he doesn't preach the Word. That's right. And that angel will have to answer in the judgment.

L-290 How many remembers the vision here not long ago about... Look here. When I was--when I was laying down on the bed, and the Holy Spirit come; and I looked back, my wife there. And there I was laying there, and went up into the Presence there, and I seen all those people. And you remember me telling that? All of you do. See?
And I said, "Why, are they..."
He said, "They are yours."
And I said, "All them Branhams?"
He said, "No." There was millions of them. He said, "That's your converts."
And I said, "Converts?"
"See that woman that you was admiring so there, young and beautiful," said, "she was past ninety when you led her to Christ."
And I said, "Oh." I said, "Then I was afraid of this?"
And he said, "We are waiting here for the coming of the Lord."

L-300 I said, "I want to see Him."
Said, "You can't see Him now," but said, "soon He will come. We're waiting for Him. But when He comes, He will come to you first. And you'll be judged according to the Gospel you preached, and we will be your subjects."
"Well," I said, "you mean I'm responsible for all these?"
"All of us."
I said, "Well, will every one..."
He said, "You were borned a leader."
And I said, "Well, will everyone be responsible?"
He said, "Every leader."
I said, "What about Saint Paul?"
Said, "He'll be responsible for his age."
"Well," I said, "I preached the same Gospel he did."
And millions of voices raised, said, "We are resting upon that." See? There you are, "resting."
So the angel of God, the messenger to the church, is responsible if he preaches not the Word. All right.
