<TITLE>03. Par 22-31</TITLE>L-22   Tonight, I thought, being that this was the thanksgiving celebration, instead of preaching, I would just take like a Sunday school lesson, and lay the foundation for the service that's... or healing service and any--any service, the foundation of the Gospel. And I had the brother to read out of the Book of Exodus, the 12th chapter. I'm going to continue to read just... or just read out of there another portion that he read, over. I'd like to come back to get my thought. The 12th verse of the 12th chapter, and the 13th verse, I think it is.
For I will pass through the land of Egypt this night, and will smite all the firstborn in the land of Egypt, both man and beast; and against all the gods of Egypt I will execute judgment: I am the LORD.
And the blood shall be unto you a token upon the house where you are: and when I see the blood, I will pass over you, and the plague shall not come upon you to destroy you, when I smite the land of Egypt.

L-23   That's an outstanding Scripture to me. And now I have many, many Scriptures here wrote down, and some notes, that I would like to talk a few minutes from. And I would not... just try to make it like a Sunday school lesson, so that we'll clearly understand.

L-24 And I am looking for a time of a break forth, of the Spirit of God, in these last days that we're now living in; for another surge of the Holy Spirit, into the Church; for a rapturing faith, just before it comes. And everything is sitting straight in order for that. And I believe that we're now at the time that the Word should have preeminence. I believe that the time to lay aside our creeds and our thoughts, and come back to the Word.

L-25   God, in every age, as I spoke last evening, He told the end from the beginning. He told what would be in each generation. Also, and, "God, in the sundry times, He sent forth the prophets." When each time come for those things to happen for that age, He sent forth prophets. And the Word of the Lord always comes to His prophets, the prophet for that age. And each time, only thing that prophet did was to manifest, exactly, the promise for that age.

L-26 And when the day our Lord Jesus came on the scene, He was the manifestation of the Word for that age. He was Isaiah 9:6, "Unto us a Child is born," and so forth. And then He was also Isaiah 35, Isaiah 28:19, the same. Those, all those Scriptures that were foretold, He came forth to manifest that Word. He did exactly what was supposed to be done in that day. For, the Word, this Book is the Word, and the Word is God.

L-27   And now it's already layed out. It just takes someone to come on the scene, to manifest those promises, faith in the--the call of God. And I know we've been down through a lot of impersonation, and so forth. Moses and Aaron run onto the same thing. But, when that comes up, stand still. Moses, when he met those supersensory perceptionists, he just let them go. They were doing exactly what he did, but he waited until the full manifestation took place. And it's promised the same thing would take place in the last days. "For as Jambres and Jannes withstood Moses," so will man of this day. But, now, that doesn't stop the promise. That will only magnify the promise. That will make it real.

L-28   Now I want you to notice, tonight, what we're going to speak on is: The Token. A token!

L-29 Now, the first, I want you to notice what--what the order of this is, the order of the passover. It must be a male sheep, and it must be tested for fourteen days.

L-30 What a perfect type it is of Christ, the antitype, a Male, a Lamb, and He was tested for three and a half years of His ministry, through critics and everything, the clergy of that day, but was proved to hold fast to the Father's Word. Even in the presence of Satan, He said, "It is written. It is written." Constantly He defeated the enemy, on the Word.

L-31 A perfect example for us today, always defeat the enemy with the Word of God that's written for the day!
