<TITLE>19. Par 128-133</TITLE>L-128 Now, minister brethren, and brothers and sisters over the world, to my understanding the first Bible that was written, God wrote it in the sky, 'cause they must look up and see that there is a--a God in heaven, that God's above them. And if you notice in the zodiac... Now, don't any of you people go... You stay right with this Bible here. See? But the--the zodiac, it starts off the first in the zodiac, as I understand, is the virgin; the last in the zodiac number is Leo the Lion. That's the first coming of Christ through the virgin; the second coming is the Lion of the tribe of Juda. See? Then we got the cancer age, and also down through the zodiac.
Now, we find out that there was another one written, or another one placed; and that was the pyramid. Did you notice in the pyramids how it started off wide at the bottom like a mountain, made out of solid rock, went right up till it got to the top, but there never was a cap put on the pyramid, the big pyramid there in Egypt. Take out your... If you've got a dollar bill in your pocket, take out a dollar bill and look on it, and you'll find here the American seal on one side; and on the other side it's got at the bottom the pyramid, and above the pyramid the capstone, but it's a great big eye, and it's called at the bottom of this pyramid, "The Great seal." Why ain't the American eagle the great seal? That's the seal of God.
Remember we used to sing a little song:
All along on the road
To that soul's true abode,
There's an Eye watching you.
Every step that you take,
This great Eye is awake,
There's an Eye watching you.
That's right. You remember when we used to have a little--a little jubilee, we'd say:
If you steal and cheat and lie,
And in the church you testify,
There's an Eye watching you.

L-130 Now, the great seal. Now, we know it... I don't understand it, the measuring of the pyramid, but I've just been telling you people in the last--in some of this teachings coming on so that you see it all goes right on together...
Now, the pyramid started to represent the church, wide at the bottom. And as it comes up closer to the top, it begins to come more into a--a funnel shape.
Now, we find out, it gets right up to the very peak of the top, and they never did complete it. Why? Why? I wonder why. Because the Bible said the Headstone was rejected. They was rejected.

L-133 Now, watch, the church age... Listen close now. Don't miss this. The church age has come from the beginning of the reformation, Luther, back in the times there where the foundation stones was laid which was the doctrine of the apostles. Then we find out as the times went on from one age to another, the church become more in the minority all the time, until it got through like... Luther preached justification. Then you was to be--confessed to be a Christian, they'd put you to death--days of the martyrdom--martyrs.
Now, we find out in the days of Wesley you was a holy-roller if you confessed Christ then--that new method. The people got out here when Wesley come here and Asbury, they had meetings here in America (read your history), to where they had it in school houses; their churches here wouldn't have them. And they finally got to a place till the Holy Spirit would fall on them, and they'd fall on the floor. And they'd pour water on them, fan them with a fan, thought they'd fainted. And I've been right in their meetings myself in my fifty years. And I've seen them fall under the power of the Holy Spirit like that, and they'd throw water in their face and everything: the old free Methodist many years ago. That was a persecution.
