<TITLE>40. Par -</TITLE>L-64-5 Satan knowed It by knowledge. Jesus knowed It by experience; He knowed It by revelation. He knowed that He was that Son of God that was to come into the world. He knowed His standing; He knowed He was born in this world for that purpose; and that's the reason the Word of God could work through Him, because He knowed what He was. Glory! (Have you caught it yet?) He knowed what He was! Satan, at the back of it, he knowed what he was; and he knowed he had no business with his wisdom on the Word, because the Word was God. You get it?

L-65-1 Now, if Jesus knew Who He was... He was a predestinated creature of time. You believe that? Jesus, the body, He knew that He was the predestinated Word, the Person of God that was to stand in that day to be the Sacrifice for sin. And He knew His adversary (as I preached on a couple Sundays ago), He knew His adversary, and He knew Who He was; therefore, those two great forces come together, knowledge and faith. Jesus knew Who He was. Satan knew the Bible as good as Jesus did, but It wouldn't work for Satan. See? No matter how much knowledge you have it won't work.
Now, take that back to some of these big organizations. Think of it a minute. They say, "Well, we got the Word." Let me see It work. You Catholics, you say you're the original. Let's see it. Show me your works without your--or show me your works by--or without your faith, and I'll show you mine by my faith. See? See what the Word said.

L-65-3 Can you plant a seed without it manifesting what it is, if it's growing? Can you plant a grain of corn without making corn if it grows? Can you plant a potato less it raise potato? Can you plant a flower without being that kind of flower? Then if you're sowed, and the seed of God in your heart, it's got to produce that. Jesus said, "He shall do My works if he believes Me." If he says he believes It, and these don't follow him, he's a liar, "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also, even more than this, for I go to My Father." Why, it's strong, but just don't hit the skidding place and slide off over on to some rock somewhere. It'll just fall down in the valley, so that the winds can't blow it away and the fowls can't get it, it'll grow. Hide it down in your heart.

L-65-4 David said, "Thy Law have I hid in my heart (so no denomination can take it out, the birds can't pick it up); I got it hid here. I'm meditating in it day and night. They're written upon my bedposts and everywhere I got them. Got them bound on my fingers, they're in the...
And Jesus said, "Your name's in the palm of My hand." So how--how's it going to be forgotten? Can't be. Now, all right.

L-65-6 Then if Jesus defeated Satan upon the faith, knowing Who He was--He was a predestinated creature (are you ready?) what about the predestinated Bride of Jesus Christ now? Do you believe the Bride's predestinated? The predestinated Bride of Christ now, the church, the Word seed, with everything that God promised to put in the church in It right now; it's in It now. Everything's in order; the Holy Spirit's been given; the Seed's been sowed; the evening Lights has been shining; the sign of Sodom that Jesus promised is here, and Malachi 4, a predestinated church. Oh, devil...
