<TITLE>13. Par 83-91</TITLE>L-83   We can't go, something must die so we can eat. This morning when you eat, you eat dead substance. If something doesn't die, then you cannot live, 'cause you only live by dead substance. If you eat meat, the hog died. You eat pork, the hog died, of course. And then if you eat beef, the cow died. You say, "But I eat bread." Then the wheat died. "Why, I ate greens." The greens died. You only live by dead substance, and that's the only way you can live.

L-84 Then if you can only live natural, by dead substance, something had to die so you can live natural, how much more did Something have to die so you live Eternally! Christ died, that we might live Eternally. And He become the House of God's Eternal Life Bread, that we catch, freshly, every hour of the day, coming down from God out of Heaven, in the form of the Holy Spirit, feeds our hungry souls as we set together in Heavenly places. He is our Bethlehem.

L-85   Then all true believing sons of God are born in Bethlehem with Him. If Christ had to become the Bread of Life, to be born in Bethlehem, which is Life's Bread House, then every one of true believers in Christ is born in Christ, they are born in God's Bethlehem. Amen. Then, only, Jesus was born in Bethlehem, I was born in Bethlehem, you were born in Bethlehem. How did you do it? Right here in Phoenix, Arizona, this morning in the Ramada, you can be born again in God's Bethlehem, House of Eternal Bread Life. Eat It and live forever!

L-86   Why little Bethlehem? That's today, "Why a bunch of little holy rollers? Why this, that or the other?" The people don't know what It's all about.

L-87 But the Spirit reveals It. The Word shows It. It's the manifestation of God's Word. We have Life through Christ, and Him alone. Our organizations, our denominations, our differences, only separates us from God. We have one access to God, and that's through Jesus Christ. There's not another way that we can come through Him; by no priest, no preacher, no system, or nothing else; only Jesus Christ and Him crucified. He's God's Bread of Life, and we are borned in Him. And if He is God's Bread of Life, then He is Bethlehem. And being born in Christ, we are then God-born in Bethlehem, in Christ Jesus, sitting together in Heavenly places, eating of Him. Eating of Him! Who is He? He's the Word. "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God." And when we can sit with one objective, the Word of God, and feed upon That, we are in God's, spiritual Bethlehem, eating God's spiritual Bread, and our souls punctuating every Word that He spoke, with an "Amen!" We enjoy this Heavenly angel Food.

L-88   When It says, "These signs shall follow them that believe." The creed or denomination says, "Oh, It isn't so." But the real man who's born in Bethlehem, says, "Amen!"

L-89 "The works that I do shall you do also." The denomination says, "It's a bunch of work-up emotion." But the real Bethlehem dweller says, "Amen," because he is satisfied, That's angel Food.

L-90 "If ye abide in Me and My Words in you, ask what you will, and it'll be done for you." Amen.

L-91 Oh, the high and prudent will never see it. We hold so much to our traditions of the elders, so much that we have to pack cards and everything else to get in some pulpit. They ain't it. You can get in God's pulpit by humbling yourself. Come into the House of the Bread of Life, Jesus Christ, and live forever in His Presence, and lifted up in Heavenly places in Christ Jesus, feasting on the Word. That's God's Bethlehem.
