<TITLE>16. Par 104-109</TITLE>L-104 And he looked around. He said, "Behold, there He is! There's God's chosen place of worship. There's the Lamb, the real Lamb that takes away the sin of the world." He didn't say, "Here comes the Methodist, here comes the Baptist, or the Catholic." He said, "There comes the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world."
The only safety zone there is is in that Lamb of God. In Him alone is salvation; not in any church, any creed, any people, any father, any mother, any holy man, or nothing, holy place. It's in the Holy God, the Lord Jesus Christ, where God placed His Name on a human Being, for redemption, Who paid the price for us sinners. That's the only place that there is salvation. That's the Rock I stand on.

L-105   John identified Him. He said, "I didn't know Him when I saw Him come walking up, but out there where I got my schooling..." Not in the seminary like his daddy did; not as a priest, trained. But in the wilderness, where he was in the theological seminary of Almighty God, waiting for God's Word; not what some group of man had hatched up, but what God had said about It. And when John looked up and saw the Spirit coming, he said, "I bear record, this is Him." Oh, my!
There is your place of worship. There is your hiding place. There is the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world. Not no church, no creed, or nothing else, but the Lamb of God that takes away the sin of the world.

L-106 See how John placed it? He didn't say, "You Pharisees is right, you Sadducees, Herodians." He said, "There is the Lamb." That's the place. He has got the Name. He is the One. Not another name under Heaven!

L-107   Watch what Jesus said about John now. One day John sent to Him, to see what He was doing. Jesus said of him, "He was that great and shining light," to show them the right path that they should follow before His advent, His first advent. Listen close. Don't miss it. Jesus said, "John was that light." Malachi 3, no mistake! The prophet with the great shining light identified Jesus as being the only One, "the Lamb." All other lambs them priests was talking about, and all them other things, was foolish. Here was "the Lamb!" The man with the great shining light, that Jesus said he was.
Malachi 3 said, "I'll send My messenger before My face to prepare the way." And the one that was sent to prepare the way, identified Him, the place. "That's Him! There's no mistake. That's Him! I see the sign following Him. I know that that's Him; a Light coming down from Heaven and going upon Him." It was positive, that was Him.

L-108   Then, my brother, I want to ask you something, in closing. We might say this. In Malachi 4, aren't we also promised another eagle, a Pillar of Light to be following, to show the erring church this day that He is Hebrews 13:8, "the same yesterday, today, and forever"? Aren't we promised another one to come flying from the wilderness? Amen! That's exactly the Truth. How fitting and matching it is to Luke 17:30, where the Son of man (Eagle) will be revealing Himself to bring to naught all other worship places, such as denominations and so forth!
God chose His place. John said, "There It is!"

L-109 And then we're promised the same thing in this day, Malachi 4, "To turn the hearts of the children back," to say that He is not dead, these things are not for another age; baptism in Jesus' Name was not for back there, but He is now the same. Amen. To bring to naught all other places of worship, that's what the last-day eagle is to do, to show that all the rest of it is foolishness, denomination is folly, but to point them again with the same sign that he did, that He's the same yesterday, today, and forever. Hallelujah!
