<TITLE>22. Par 139-144</TITLE>L-139 I said, "That's exactly what He meant do. But what in, not--not... He didn't say, 'call these words.' 'Baptize them in the Name,' Name! Oh, my!" I said, "'Father, Son, and Holy Ghost' is titles. 'The Name of the Father, Son... The Name of the Father, Son, and the Holy Ghost.' See?" I said, "What did Peter say It was? What did the rest of them say It was? See? What is It? Uh-huh. The 'Lord Jesus Christ' is the Name of the 'Father, Son, and Holy Ghost.'" He's got about thirty thousand natives you have to rebaptized again now. See? All right. But that's right. Paul said, "If an Angel from Heaven..."

L-140   Paul told those people that wasn't baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ, Acts 19:5, that, in order to receive the Holy Ghost, they had to come. Though they were shouting and praising God, and doing great things, he said they had to come back and be rebaptized, again, in the Name of Jesus Christ. After John the Baptist had baptized them, had to come back and be rebaptized.
And he said, in Galatians 1:8, "If a Angel from Heaven teaches any other thing than I've taught you, let him be accursed." Yes, sir. So we have to stay right with that Word, every Word of It. See?

L-141   Notice. Oh, don't have no flaws; be absolutely sure. If there's anything doubting in your mind, you better straighten it up now. Don't wait till then, it's too late. Don't wait till you take the mark so deep you'll never see It any more, you'll be blind.
He blinded Israel, that He might manifest His Word. He's doing the same thing to the Gentiles, 'cause here--here they are walking right into it just the same as they did then.

L-142   Notice, Eve rejected and forfeited her rights. After she had seen the Word vindicated by God, what He had done, she rejected It and forfeited her rights. The same thing they done at Nicaea, Rome. And the same thing they're doing now at the Council of Churches, just exactly. Brethren, there is, from Genesis to Revelation, the same thing. That's what Israel done. That's what Pilate done. That's what the whole thing done, always, from Eve till now, same thing. They reject the vindicated Word and take a dogma, instead. That forms death, spiritual death.
Dead! The Word is still preached to the dead. Exactly! Won't be through the Millennium, now, see. They're--they're, already preached to. May be getting It right now. See?

L-143   Cain's sons, which was the product of unbelief of the Word of God, Cain's sons scoffed at prophet Noah's message. You notice that? With God's Word he had brought the--the predicted judgment, and had vivid signs, vindicated signs that the time was at the end, and Cain's sons scoffed at It.
So as they do now. So, that, they did in the day of Jesus. So they did all through the ages. It's always been. They scoff and make fun of It. He said, "In the last days there will come scoffers, saying, 'There is no difference in the time, since our fathers fell asleep.'" You, see?

L-144 So did the sons of the devil, through the religious system, at the Word made manifest in the time of Jesus Christ. Look, religious systems of Jewish people, [Brother Branham knocks on the pulpit and says, "Sister Rose."--Ed.], Jewish people who should have knowed better, but their system caused them to reject and scoff at the Word of God (that they claimed they believed) made manifest, not one Word out of the way. They did the same thing.
