<TITLE>07. Par 60-70</TITLE>L-60   He came in three names, three sons' names. He came in the Son... name of the Son of--of man, the Son of David, and the Son of God; three sons' names.

L-61 Now, He came first in the Son of Da-... Son of man, because He was a Prophet. Now, Jehovah Himself called Ezekiel and the prophets, "son of man, what seest thou?" Jesus never referred to Himself as Son of God; He referred to Himself as Son of man, because the--the Scriptures cannot be broken.
There can be nothing broken in the Scriptures. Every Word must be so. That's the way that I believe it. That's the way It's got to be, not because I believe it, because It's the Word of God.

L-62   Now if you notice in the beginning, one Word, page one in the Bible, in Genesis 1, we find out that the whole... All the sickness, all the sorrow, all the heartaches, and everything that's ever happened to human beings, came because one person disbelieved one Word, caused all this. That's the first of the Bible. In the last of the Bible, Revelation 22, the same God said, "Whosoever shall take one Word out of This, or add one word to It." See, it must be Word by Word, just the way It is.

L-63   So, therefore, and just take the little thing like I'm going... someone always going on to me about the women bobbing their hair. Now, to me, as long as she does that, I don't care how saintly she does and how much she knows, she is still wrong. She wears shorts and these clothes like that; I don't care what she does, how much she can sing, how well she can preach, whatever she could do, what kind of a life she lives, it's still that one Word is broke. See? See, it's got to be every Word. Not a sentence; a Word, one Word! So, the Bible is no private interpretation. It must be Word by Word, the way It's written. We must believe That.

L-64   And not only believe It, but live It. If we don't live It, then we don't believe It; we just say we do. Like I... Basing back to what I said, those disciples could not explain It, but they believed It, anyhow, and they made their confession and lived to it. When all the rest of them walked away from It, they stayed with It! They believed It! That's the way we do. That's the way you got to do it. No matter what anybody else does, we believe It and then we act upon It. If you don't do it, then you don't believe It.

L-65   Now notice now as He came, He had to come as Son of man, because the Holy Scripture said that He would, "God would raise up a Prophet to them." So He could not come calling Himself the Son of God, because it wasn't that dispensation. He was the Son of man prophesying, to fulfill, and revealing to them all the things that had been done, and typed what He was. Then He was on earth as Son of man.

L-66   Look at that Syrophenician woman run to Him, and said, "Thou Son of David, have mercy on me!" He never as much as raised His head. She had no claims on Him as Son of David. She was a Gentile.
No more than my daughter has claims on me as husband; or, my wife, as daughter. Yet, she is my daughter and my wife, she is my daughter in the Gospel. But, earthly, she has no rights to call me a--a father. See?
Now notice, this Gentile woman had no claims on Him as Son of David. But blind Bartimaeus did, see, he was a Jew. Now, He came as Son of man.

L-67 You have to know these words and these things. Look at Hattie Wright that time, when the Third Pull. You remember it. Of all the everything, that woman said the right thing. You've got to say that right word, the right thing to God.

L-68   Notice now, He came first as the Prophet, and they crucified Him. His own crucified Him. He came as the Son of man.

L-69 Then after the Holy Spirit came, He was then the Son of God. God is a Spirit. He was the Holy Spirit, Son of God. He lived through the church ages as Son of God.

L-70 Now, in the Millennium, He'll be Son of David, sitting upon the Throne of His father, David. He is the Son of David, now.
