<TITLE>16. Par 196-206</TITLE>L-196 Oh, if you've got spiritual discernment, listen! After the revelation of His Name, of Who He was, He changed his name. Now after the revelation, now He struck the earth, "there is not a company of Gods; there is One," now it's time for the revelation for the Son that's been promised to be revealed to Abraham's royal Seed, of the promise.

L-197   Look, He changed it from Wesley, Baptist, Presbyterian, Pentecostal. I don't know whether to say this or not. You don't have to believe it. But I hope you forgive me, for I don't want to hurt you.

L-198 But, look, there has never been a messenger to the churches of--of God, throughout all the entire history of time, that ever had a leader, since the reformation, like the leader we got today, Billy Graham, right, 'cause he's went to all the world. See? And, notice, never have we had a man, any reformer... We take Sankey, Moody, Finney, Calvin, Knox, whoever it might be, Wesley, Luther, there hasn't been a one with the name ending h-a-m, before. The only messenger we've ever had in the church ages, with the ending name of h-a-m; G-r-a-h-a-m, Graham.

L-199 And Graham is six letters, and six is man's number, man's day; man was created, in--in Genesis 1:26, on the sixth day. But seven is God's number; seventh day, God rested. Not six, showing this G-r-a-h-a-m would be to the church that's in the world; but, A-b-r-a-h-a-m, Abraham is seven letters.

L-200   Say, "There's nothing in numbers." Then you don't know the numerics of your Bible. See? You're sure to get It wrong now. Certainly.

L-201 God is "perfected" in three's, and "worshiped" in seven's, and "tempted" in forty's, and "jubilees" in fifty's, oh, whatever you want to do. All the math, the Bible runs in mathematics.

L-202 Notice, the sixth is a messenger to be sent to the world. And, notice, seventh is God's number.

L-203 And notice at this time of the appearing now, or the revealing of the Son. When the... It's going to be revealed, the Son. They done already recognized His Name, knowed Who He was. He is El Shaddai, the Almighty Elohim. But now we come down to the time of the promised Son is to reveal Himself. The Son, Isaac Himself that's been promised, is ready to come on the scene.

L-204 And He couldn't do it until He sent and changed his name from Abram to Abraham, because, "a father of nations, he was." Notice, -ham, h-a-m, "father, father of nations."

L-205   Look how fitting that is with Malachi 4, "Restore the Faith, back to the fathers," Abraham's Seed be restored back to the kind of Faith that father Abraham had, His royal Seed. Malachi 4 to be fulfilled, is to restore back the Faith that was once back there in the beginning, restore It back to the royal Seed of Abraham. It's a promise. It's exactly the promise. The Royal Seed is to be revealed, and by a... by the Royal Seed, which is the Royal Seed, of Christ. Christ is the Royal Seed. And the Seed is the Holy Spirit that's in the hearts of the people that believe in God, that hold His Word, and God working through them, carrying the same Message. "A little while and the world seeth Me no more, yet ye shall see Me; I'll be with you, even in you. And the works that I do, you'll do also." See, revealing it in the last days here, how it's supposed to come.

L-206   Now, watch the 18th chapter now. Immediately after the changed name, God appears, to reveal Himself in flesh. After the Name is made known, Who He is, God appears in flesh. Abraham, one hot day, just a few weeks or months before Sodom was burned and Isaac come on the scene. And, notice, Abraham is setting out under his oak.
