<TITLE>20. Par 81-85</TITLE>L-81 If Jesus Christ has come into the church through the baptism of the Holy Ghost, and spoke in tongues, and healed the sick, and performed miracles, what's... The same thing He did with Abraham along the journey, then that was the last sign before the fire. It was the last sign before God turned from the Jews.
Here it is. Then the Gentiles has to get the same thing, that is, the church elected and the church nominal. There He is out yonder, and here's the Holy Ghost here tonight: the same Jesus Christ that was yesterday, today, and forever, to do the same thing. He's the same Christ. He can't fail. He's Christ.

L-82 We would see Jesus. If I went out in the street tonight, and got you a man, and brought him in here, had nail scars in his hands, and prints over his face here, and blood running down from the nail scars, any hypocrite could do that. But the life... God raised up the body of Jesus Christ, and it sets at His right hand. You believe that? That's the... He is a High Priest setting there to make intercessions upon our confession. He's God's High Priest.

L-83 Now. But the Life that was in Him, the Spirit was in Him, is down here. "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also." Why could He tell them what they were thinking about, what they were doing, who they were? Because He was the Word. "The Word of God," Hebrews 4 said, "is sharper than a two-edged sword, and a discerner of the thoughts of the heart." And then, if this Word... Faith is come in into this Word, and God has set His church in order, that Word becomes the same thing. That makes Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever, the same thing. You believe it? I challenge you to believe it. (It's getting late. I just keep talking.) I challenge you to believe that to be the truth.

L-84 "Sirs, We Would See Jesus." What more would it be, if a man come in here with blood over him, and nail scars, and things... Jesus, when He comes, every eye shall see Him, every knee shall bow, and every tongue shall confess when the Body of Jesus returns. I believe in His literal coming, corporal body, descending from the heavens with a shout, with the voice of the Archangel, the trump of God. The dead in Christ shall rise. But His Spirit is here with us.
And as the church, like the pyramid, comes into a--a point, so has the church in the days of Luther, days of Wesley, days of Pentecostal. And now just before the Headstone comes into it, that church has to be honed so perfect, till the same ministry that He did here, His same Spirit, so predominant, will bring that same Body right into it, and resurrect the whole thing. That's exactly. Amen. Glory to God.

L-85 Look on the back of your American dollar. On one side it says "the American Seal," the eagle with the things in his hand. Why did they put the Egyptian seal and say, "The Great Seal" on the other side? Not a pyramid doctrine, that's nonsense. I'm talking about something that they say...
Just like, why does a woman every time she gets married, put a veil over her face? She's coming to her husband, the head, just like Rebekah did. She put a veil over her face to meet Isaac. She has no more head; Isaac's her head. And the church ought to be so submissive to the Word of God, that it veils its own face. It has no head. It's... The nature of a woman is to submit to a man. And that's what the church ought to be doing, submitting to Christ, to His Word, to His doctrine, to His principles. She takes no thought for Herself. She has no head. Christ is Her Head, not some ecclesiastical bunch. But Christ is Her Head, the Word. And the Word was made flesh and dwelled among us. Hallelujah. Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever, that same manifestation of the Word. Do you believe it? Let us pray.
