<TITLE>12. Par 102-110</TITLE>L-102 The world is in a Sodom condition. And the church has went into Sodom, with it, like Lot and his wife.
And I say that there is a Elected Church somewhere in this world, that's pulling out and set aside from those things, and the manifestation of God has attracted Its attention. We're at the last days.

L-103 The shuck has give forth its Strength into the Seed. It's went on out; it was a good shuck, but it served its time. See, it is the Word Bride of the Word Groom!

L-104 The natural seed of Abraham, of Isaac, and Jacob, and... Or, natural seed, rather, of Ishmael, natural seed of Isaac, and so forth, had to go into the ground, in order to--to bring out this other, bring out Jesus.
And so has all these others, the seeds has to dry... I mean, the shucks has to dry, and the pollen has to dry, and everything dies, so the Seed can produce Itself. That's the way it's been in every age.

L-105 Denominations has been the carriers of part of It, part that is the Word, for it has been hid from the wise reformers, or the... sealed away from them, until the age of the Eagles appear. The Bible said so. Yes, sir. Cause, we're promised that in Malachi 4. Exactly, we are.
"He has hid It from the eyes of the wise and prudent."

L-106 As we've just went through the Book of the Revelations, we find out that every, all three of those messengers of those beasts that went forth; each one suited Luther just right, each one seated the other one just right, which is the ox and the different animals of the Bible; they went forth in justification, sanctification, even into the Pentecostals. But the fourth was an eagle, that's right, and through that age God raised It up. So it has to come through that age to be correct, yes, sir, the eagle promise being fulfilled of--of Malachi 4.

L-107 Jesus was not of Mary, but came through Mary, like the Life through the shuck.

L-108 Now, many of you fine Catholic brothers here, or sisters, tonight, maybe think that Mary was "mother of God," as you say she was. How could she be the mother of God, and God had no beginning and no end? See? Who was the Father of God, then, if she was the mother? See?
He was her creator, and she was not His creator. He created, Himself, in the womb of Mary, not her own creation. It was He, created, Himself. He was not of her, but she was of Him. That's right. The Bible teaches us, that, "All things were made by Him," see, "and not nothing was made but what was made by Him." So how could He... How'd He have a mother, when He was God Himself?

L-109 Now we see here the true revelation of the true type. There is three women carriers of the natural seed, until the matured into Jesus. How Ishmael could not be, because he was born, really, in what we would think today, out of wedlock, because he was a bondswoman's son. Then come a little more like Him, like Jesus, which come out Isaac; but it still wasn't, because it was born of the sex between Sarah and Abraham. But then along came Mary, by the virgin birth, produced Jesus Christ. That's right. God, the Word, made flesh.

L-110 Now look. There was three women. There is three women typed here, churches. The women always types churches. Means, three denominational ages, carriers, which also must die and dry up, just like the shuck and so forth does, to give room for the Seed. The Seed cannot get right, cannot get ripe, rather, until the shuck, stalk, and leaves, are all dry. That's right. It saps every bit of the Life, in them, out; amen; all it was, is that, plus.
