<TITLE>10. Par 90-100</TITLE>L-90 Now, the stalk does not look at all like the Seed, but the Life that was in the Seed is in the stalk. That was Luther. Now, the little stalk has many blades; it went off from Luther, into Zwingli, and on down to Calvin and many others.

L-91   Now notice, then, it changed its position. Watch nature now forming to the Word of God, as the sun; death, burial, and resurrection. Then come the pollen, that was Wesley. And through there were many little pollens hanging on it, that actually looked a whole lot more like the Seed than what that leaf did, on the wheat or the corn. Looked a lot more like it; because, Wesley with the second Word, second Word of God, bringing His church up, come through sanctification. That was his message. All right.

L-92 Then, after a while, that dropped off and went into the stalk again, and brought forth an ear of corn. But before this ear started, there was a shook, shuck, covering, husk. And any wheat raiser, corn raiser, if you'll dig in there and pick out that ear of corn or that ear of wheat, you will think that that little--that little first little thing is that grain of wheat. But, now, there is the Pentecostal age. Now you can't, you, any theologian or...

L-93 Any historian, rather, knows that that's the ages, the way they come. Take the--the Book of Revelation, take the church ages, and see if that isn't exactly the way they unfold.

L-94   Now, from Wesley came forth Pilgrim Holiness, Nazarenes, and all them little holiness churches, a whole lot more closer to the Word than what the Lutheran reformation was. But, you see, when Luther organized, that just started those blades. And when this come up, all the Spirit left that Lutheran church, all but just the denominational, and the real true believers went into sanctification.

L-95 And then when sanctification moved over, the Pilgrim Holiness, and so forth, and all the holiness organizations, Nazarenes, and so forth, It moved from there, right out into this Pentecostal age. And look at that little grain now, of wheat, it looks a million times more like the original wheat, that went into the ground, than what the stalk did or what the pollen did. But if you'll sit down, put it under a glass, and open those little shucks up, they're just carriers also. The grain hasn't started yet. It's a little bitty bud right at the back, with a big high-powered glass you can see that little tip, like a pin point, there comes the seed. And this here shuck that looks just exactly like the real thing, it isn't the real thing. It's only a womb.

L-96   Like Mary's womb. Mary was not the Seed, in the representation here of the stalk. She was only a carrier of It, like the rest of it. But being called and chosen first, by God Himself, for this purpose, it looked more like as our Catholic friends would think, that she was the mother of God. No, she was not the mother of God, she neither was the Seed of God.

L-97 The woman produces the egg. God produces the--the life. The hemoglobin, the blood, is in the male sex.

L-98 A hen can lay an egg or a bird can lay an egg, in springtime build its nest, but, if that female bird hasn't been with the male bird, it won't hatch. It's dead. It'll rot right in the nest.

L-99 As I often said, that's what's the matter with the churches today, they're rottening right in the nest, called Methodist, Baptist, Pentecostals, and so forth. If they're not in contact with the Word, Itself, they rot right in the nest, in their organization.

L-100   Now, now some of them says then, the Protestant more or less believes that it was the Mary produced the egg. If that be so, look what you make Jehovah God doing. The egg cannot be produced without a sensation.
