<TITLE>17. Par 71-73</TITLE>L-71 God in His universe. You believe it? God is in His Word. Do you believe it? Watch how He keeps His Word and confirms It. Look what He told Abraham. Look what He told the apostles. Look what He told the prophets. Look how He promised in this day. God's in His universe. God is in His Word. Now, God in His Son. You believe God was in His Son? Now, we have to hurry.
God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself. You believe that? One comment on God in His Son so we can hurry.
I was talking to a woman not long ago that belongs to a church that does not believe that Jesus was Divine. She believes that He was just an ordinary man, a prophet, or something, but wasn't Divine. He was either God or the greatest deceiver the world's ever had. He was God, God manifested in a body called Jesus, His Son. Not just a man, not a teacher, a philosopher, but He was God manifested in the flesh.
I Timothy 3:16 said, "Without controversy, great is the mystery of godliness. For God was manifest in the flesh, seen of Angels, received up into heaven." Well, sure. He was God.

L-72 And this lady said, "Mr. Branham, I enjoy your preaching. But" she said, "there's just one fault I find with you."
I said, "Thank you. If you can just only find one fault, that's very good." And I said, "I--I've done found ten thousand million of them, perhaps people has found more than that." I said, "You just find one, I--I thank you for that comment."
She said, "But if you'd just clear that one up."
And I said, "What is it, lady? May I know? If I'm that close to being all right," I said, "I... maybe I can clear that up."
She said, "You brag too much on Jesus."
Oh, I said, "What?"
She said, "You brag too much on Jesus."
I said, "I couldn't brag enough on Him, sister." I said, "If I had ten thousand tongues, I couldn't praise Him enough. He's worthy of all the praise."

L-73 She said, "But you make Him Divine."
"Well," I said, "He was Divine."
She said, "He was just a man, Mr. Branham. He was a good teacher, a philosopher. But He wasn't Divine. You make Him Divine."
I said, "He was Divine."
And she said, "Well, if I'll... You said you was a fundamentalist. You stayed with the Word."
I said, "Yes, ma'am."
She said, "If I will show you in the Word where the Bible shows that He is not Divine, will you accept it?"
I said, "Yes, ma'am. But you can't do it. But I'm gentleman, Christian enough to listen to you."
And she said, "I can prove it to you." Said, "You take Saint John the 11th chapter." Said, "When Jesus went down to raise up Lazarus, the Bible said He wept."
I said, "Sure. Why?"
"Why," she said, "that showed He wasn't Divine."
I said, "Is that your Scripture?"
She said, "Yes, that's it."
And I said, "Sister, that's thinner than the broth made out of a shadow of a chicken that starved to death." I said, "If that's all you've got..." My. "Oh," I said, "don't you understand? He was both God and man. God was in Him."
And she said, "How could He weep if He was Divine?"
