<TITLE>03. Par 25-39</TITLE>L-25 That Mohammedan said, "Well, then, Mr. Reedhead, what part is inspired then?" He said, "I want you to know that all the Koran is inspired, not just part here and part there." What a defeat! So he said, "Well," he said, "well, if--if it's not, if that part is not inspired, how do I know the rest of it's not inspired?" Now, there's a good...

L-26   He said, "Well," said, "when, Jesus raised up from the dead; and Mohammed is the grave."

L-27 He said, "Has He raised up from the grave?" He said, "He said, if He did, 'He would be in you, to the consummation, and the works that He did you'd do also.'"

L-28 And Mr. Reedhead said to me, said, "Brother Branham, I didn't know what to say."
He said, "Why, Jesus did raise from the dead!"

L-29 Said, "You've had two thousand years to prove it, and ninety percent of the world hardly knows anything about it." Said, "Let Mohammed raise, and the whole world will know it in twenty-four hours." That's right. If you'd been to his grave, some of you missionaries, every four hours they change the guard of the horse there, white horse, that he'll ride it down, the world, when he raises from the dead.

L-30 "But we don't have to wait for Jesus to raise from the dead. He's already raised from the dead."

L-31 So he said, "Prove it. He promised it, if he raised from the dead." So he said, "Well, how do you know?"
He said, Mr. Reedhead said, "He lives within my heart."

L-32 And he said, "And Mohammed lives within my heart." Said, "Mr. Reedhead," said, "Mohammedan religion can produce just as much psychology as Christianity."

L-33 He said, "Then I kicked the dust, Brother Branham, as a defeated Christian. And promised myself that I'd come, talk to you." See?

L-34   Why, all that Bible is inspired. God watches over His Word. God has got to judge the world someday.

L-35 And if He's going to judge it by the church, what church will He judge it by? If He judge it by the Catholic church (you Catholic would say so), which Catholic church, then, the Greek Orthodox, the Roman, or which one? If He judge it by the Baptist, you Methodist are lost. If He judge it by the Methodist, you Baptist are lost. He judge it by the Pentecost, you're both lost. See? He isn't going to judge it by any church.

L-36 He's going to judge it by Jesus Christ, and Jesus Christ is the Word. Saint John, the 1st chapter, said, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us." Therefore, He'll judge it by Jesus Christ, and He is the Word. The Bible said, "He's the same yesterday, today, and forever."

L-37 God being infinite, in the beginning, with His infinite wisdom, His knowledge, divided His Gospel in each age. We find out that the churches get It all messed up, and then God sends His prophet on the scene. "And the Word of the Lord comes to the prophet." How they know it is? It's a vindication of the--the Message of that age. Now, when, what...

L-38   When Moses came, as was promised that he would come, what if he come with Noah's message? It wouldn't have worked. Moses could not have built an ark for the saving of the people. The Word of God that was promised for Moses' age was the Word that had to be vindicated.

L-39 In the age of every seer and every prophet, it's been the same, but we find the people living in a glare of another light. As Jesus said, "You garnish the walls or the tombs of the prophets, and you're the one that put them in there." See? See, they build up something, over a message, and live in that glare of that light, and refuse to walk in the light that is of the day.
