<TITLE>04. Par 36-50</TITLE>L-36 That's exactly what the common, carnal church member does today, separates themselves from the true living Word, to hold to their church. Where the... Eve put a question upon the Word, whether God would punish or not. Satan put the question; Eve believed it.

L-37 And then when the church today puts the question upon the Word, "Is He the same? Does He still live in His Church and perform His signs and miracles that He did when He was here on earth, which He so surely promised us in Saint John 14:12?"

L-38 "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do shall he do also; even greater than this shall he do, for I go to My Father. These signs shall follow them that believe." Shall follow them!

L-39 The question is, to the people today, "Does He really mean it?" And when you accept what the church says, "Does He really mean it?" then you put yourself in the same condition that Adam did, and join yourself with the--the woman of the church of the--this world, and separate yourself from the blessings that God has promised to every believer that would separate himself from the world to the Word. Now, that's the Truth.

L-40   We are, have had the privilege of living in the day that when the Word of God that we've seen is lotted through each age, for certain things to happen. And when this is lotted, sometimes a man wonder how it's going to be done. Professors have their own idea. But in them ages, God has always sent forth His prophet. And the Word of the Lord comes to the prophet and vindicates the Word to that generation. And the prophets was always the Nazarite, separated from everything else to obey the Word of God.

L-41 Don't you remember what Peter and John said, "Is it right for us to obey man, or God?" When they questioned them about the experience of Pentecost.

L-42   Now, the first man separated himself, the first Adam, from the Word, to go with his wife, that questioned whether God kept His Word or not.

L-43 What a perfect type of the lukewarm, carnal-minded believer today, that still wants to cling with what their tradition says, instead of taking what the Word says. A very real type! He was separated, to his wife. The carnal believer is separated from the Word, to the church.

L-44 But when the Second Adam was created, in the womb of a woman, and came to the world, He was a Nazarite to the Word of God. He was separated from the world, to the Word. Now, Hebrews, the 7th chapter, 26th verse, tells us that, that them priests continually died, but this Jesus was holy and separated from sinners.

L-45   Sin is "unbelief." There was no unbelief found in Him, nowhere. When He was here on earth, He said, "Who can condemn Me of sin?" Sin is "unbelief." "If I haven't done just what was prophesied for this age, if I haven't met the requirements of what Messiah is supposed to do, then don't believe Me." Said, "Search the Scriptures, for in Them you think you have Eternal Life, and They are They that testify of Me," tell you Who He is.

L-46 Because, it had been prophesied, since Eden, that there would come a Saviour. The prophet said He'd be born of a virgin, and how that He would be called "Emmanuel."

L-47 And also He was "the Counsellor, the Prince of Peace, Mighty God." And that's what they accused Him, of making Himself God. He was God, and He was "the Prince of Peace, the Mighty God, and the Everlasting Father."

L-48 There is no other Father but Him, spiritually speaking. He is the only Father, the Father of us all. And we find, all believers, He is the Father of, all who will believe His Word. For, He was completely separated from the church, from its traditions, from His mother, from the world, and only did that which pleased the Father.

L-49   Now, He was a different person from Adam. No matter what anybody questioned; to Him, the Word, it was the Word always first. And He proved that the Word was right.

L-50 When Satan tried to whitewash It for Him, and said, "It's written..."
