<TITLE>10. Par 89-96</TITLE>L-89 Notice, see how close it looks. Matthew said, Saint Matthew 24:24, said, that, "The two spirits in the last days," the church spirit of the church people, and the Bride Spirit of the Bride people, "would be so close together till it would deceive the very Elected if it was possible." That's how close.

L-90 Look how it's come through the stalk. Now notice, we're going to type something here.
Luther, in the church age, of bringing forth the Bride Seed, was the same in Spirit. Just one little grain of Seed, Luther stood out on, that was justification by faith. He was the very type of Hagar, the stalk.
Notice, Wesley was type of Sarah, the Philadelphian, the age of love that brought forth the tassel. That in Wesley's age, there was more missionaries than any other age we've had, the great missionary age of John Wesley's time.

L-91 But Pentecost represented Mary. Mary, the last stage of It, now, she was not the Seed. Yet, the Life of the Seed was in her, but It hadn't matured yet. I feel very religious. It hadn't matured yet. It was there, but It wasn't matured.
So is it with our Pentecostal age that we're living in! There has got to come forth a--a Word of God that's inner, undenominational, outside of the realms of that denomination.

L-92 Luther went to husk with his first word, "The just shall live by faith." Wesley had two words, "sanctification," second definite work of grace. Pentecost had the third word, "the restoration of the gifts." But the entire Seed has to come forth! See how they denominated on one word, and another word, and another word?
But there's got to be Something that cannot be denominated; it's the entirety of the Life that's in there, has to produce Itself again on a Bride. There cannot be any more church ages after this. We're at the end, brothers and sisters. We're here. We've arrived. Thanks be to God! Amen. Now, we see these things are just as true as they can be.

L-93 Still we notice, then, if her being the tassel, or... Wesley being the tassel; Pentecost then being the shuck, which is the next stage of the coming forth of the Grain. But, brother, sister, the stalk is not the Grain, neither is the tassel the Grain, neither is the shuck the Grain; though, each time it matures, it looks more like the Grain.

L-94 The stalk don't look like the grain. Then what comes forth? The tassel, a little bulb; it looks a more like the grain than the--than the blade does. What comes forth next? The shuck; it holds the grain, it nurtures the grain.

L-95 Now looky back here at the promise God made to Abraham, of "thy Seed," speaking spiritually. Any of us know that. He was speaking of Christ, not Isaac; through his faith Seed.

L-96 Notice, the first was by a bondswoman, didn't look anything like the promise. God don't have to take back His Word for nobody. God said how it would come, and that's the way it'll come. But, Sarah, being a representative of the church, type of the church, it (she) found out there, that she said, "Well, I believe this is a little too phenomena. I just can't even believe in that, so you go get Hagar and you take her for a wife." See, there, that stalk didn't look like the promise, at all.
But when Sarah came forth, now, that looked pretty good. It looks a whole lot more like the promise there, but still it wasn't the genuine promise. Because, Israel, in Isaac, failed and denied the genuine Seed when It come on. Hallelujah! (Don't get excited; don't run. That won't hurt you.) Denied the Seed, crucified Him, and hung Him on a cross!
