<TITLE>51. Par 572-581</TITLE>L-572   Notice, Lucifer comes in, cunning, like he did then, and by temptations and false promises, of power outside, apart from the Word of God. He did the same at Nicaea, Rome. He's doing the same today at the World Council of Ecumenical churches.

L-573 "Let's all unite together," the pope says. "I want all my ecumenical brethren out there to unite with me. We are one." That's right, in organizations you are one. But that has nothing to do with the Bride of Christ; not a thing, brother. You'll never wash Her in anything like that.

L-574   Now it is promised, in the last days, that the original Faith in the same, to be restored to the children of God at the time of the Bride Tree. Malachi 4, God said, "Before the world burns up with fire, behold I send to you Elijah the prophet, and he will restore the Faith of the children." Now, that wasn't the first Elijah that come. No, no.

L-575 Now, we don't teach here Elijah's mantel and Elijah's blankets, and all those things like that. We just teach the Word of God. See? That's what He said. See, we got all kind of a Elijah this and Elijah that, which is nonsense. That's--that's... We know that. That's, I'm not talking about that, and you that's spiritual-minded understand. See, as the late, hour is getting late, and can't put it all on this tape, of course.
Now, the promise in the last days. Now if...

L-576   Jesus said, in--in Matthew, I believe, the 11th chapter or the 6th chapter, and the 11th... No, it's the 11th chapter and about the 6th verse. When John sent his disciples over there to see if He really was the One, Jesus said, "Who did you go out to see? A--a--a wind... a reed that's shaken by the winds? Did you go out to see such-and-such?" He said, "Or did you go to see a prophet?" He said, "More than a prophet." John was more than a prophet; he was the messenger of the Covenant. And He said, "If you can receive it, this is he which is spoke of by the prophets, 'I'll send My messenger before My face.'"

L-577 Now, that's in Malachi 3, not Malachi 4. Cause, the Elisha that was to come in Malachi 4, the earth was to be burnt with a fervent heat, and the righteous was to walk out in the Millennium upon the ashes of the wicked. See? So it is not that one. See?

L-578   Now we see the promise being fulfilled. Christ, the true Headship going in, coming in His Bride, doing the same works that He did at the beginning, and making ready and fulfilling His Word as He did, at first, in John 14:12, "He that believeth on Me the works that I do shall he do also." Then, the Head and the Body are becoming One, in works and in sign and in Life, vindicated by God Hisself through His promised Word for the last days. He promised this in the last days. Now, if you're spiritual, you'll catch it.

L-579   Then, we can see that the Marriage Supper is at hand. Now, if I never see you again, remember, the Marriage Supper is at hand. And then the Kingdom according to the promise is ready to be issued in, the great Millennium, the taking up of the Church, and the destroying of the wicked. And the world, under the Sixth Seal, to be purified by volcanic, to take all the corruption and sin of the world and to mold her out again, and bring forth a bright new Millennium for the age that is to come.

L-580 When, we see all these, great threefold revelation: God in Christ; Christ in the Church; the Kingdom coming. Adam and Eve redeemed back to the Garden of Eden, in the representation of Christ and His Bride, and then the Kingdom is going to be restored according to His promise. Praise be to God! Now, by the revelation of the threefold mystery, the secret, and by the personal vindicated Word by His original Headship!

L-581   Not say, "Well, glory to God, we shout; hallelujah, we sing." That, that ain't it. I'm a missionary. I've been seven times, practically, over the world. See? I've seen heathens, devils, and everything else, dance and shout. I've seen all kinds of fleshly manifestations. That's carnal.
