<TITLE>06. Par 60-73</TITLE>L-60   Said, "Then, I'll give you two signs to do, and that will attract the people's attention. And when the attention of the people is attracted, then speak these words to them, 'I'm the God of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob, and I remember My promise.' And I've sent you down to deliver them, and I'll be with you."

L-61 Did you notice his first sign? He had all kinds of impersonations of them. Everybody tried to throw down a serpent. That's... If that ain't the run of people, I don't know what is, see. See? But what kind of a voice did they have behind it? Nothing; the Egyptian voice of the world. Yet they could perform the sign, but they didn't have the voice behind it, to back it up. But Moses had THUS SAITH THE LORD. That was the difference. Impersonators finally went on for a long time, but finally it played out.

L-62 Do you know the Bible said that would take place again in the last days? "As Jannes and Jambres withstood Moses, so would man of reprobate mind concerning the Truth." Who is Truth? Jesus Christ is Truth. See? "Reprobate mind concerning the Truth."

L-63   Now Jehovah is going to speak by His promised Word. He must then get this prophet ready to send down. Because, it's always in His line of thinking, His line of doing, every time send His prophet with the Word, and a vindicates the prophet.

L-64 Again, this is a promised sign. A prophet, himself, is a sign. The Bible said so. When you see times lapsing, and then see coming... Take the history of the Bible, study it. Whenever you seen a long lapse of time; but just when you seen a prophet appear on, it was the sign of judgment. God was going to judge the world, when He... or the nation, or the people, when you saw a prophet coming. I've preached a sermon on it, you tape man remember, the... A True Sign Overlooked. They always overlook it, they always have, but it was a sign of a coming judgment.

L-65   Now His Word is fulfilled in His voice. What He promises, then He fulfills His Word by the voice.

L-66 The coming of a prophet is a warning sign that judgment is at hand. Always has been. Let me just quote one.

L-67 Look at Noah rising up in the last, in the--in the days of the antediluvian world, a prophet prophesying. What was it? Judgment struck immediately after.

L-68 Moses went into Egypt, a vindicated prophet with the signs of the prophet. What happened? Judgment struck Egypt right afterwards.

L-69 Elijah come on the scene, the prophet, and prophesied to Ahab and that nation. What happened? Judgment struck it right afterwards. Right.

L-70 John the Baptist come on, as a sign. He was a prophet. He was a prophet-sign come on the earth. They knowed, when he come on, the Messiah would speak, after him. It had to be, 'cause, get the--get the elected.

L-71   What this is for is to get the elected people that's coming out, like in the days of Noah. Like in the days of--of Elijah, the seven thousand or seven hundred, or whatever it was, that hadn't bowed their knee, to call them out. John calling out the elected, and give it over to Christ when He come, swapped his church, said, "I must decrease, He must increase, because," he said, "I'm just a voice of Him, crying in the wilderness, 'prepare the way for the Lord.'" And Jesus come the same way. Gets the elected ready to hear the voice of God, that's what the prophetic sign is. Oh, if you follow these messages, get the per-... get the elected ready. Not the others, will never hear it. It's the elected that's called.

L-72 Where did that Angel come to, in Sodom, that did that sign? To Abraham and his group. "Stay away from Sodom; it's going to burn!" See? Jesus promised it to repeat, you know, again, at this Sodom. Now notice.

L-73   What does it do? It gets the elected ready for the shelter of God, like in Noah's time, so forth.
