<TITLE>20. Par 131-137</TITLE>L-131   "Reprobates, Jambres and Jannes, as they withstood." Now, also, listen, Second Timothy 3:8. "As Jan-... withstood Moses, also in the last days these same reprobates would come," now see where It says here, "having a form of godliness," anointed ones. Now let's just... You go back and--and read it when you get home, so that I can finish out this, this morning, if I can. "Reprobates concerning..." Not reprobates in--in--in living; they're fine, cultured man.

L-132   Now notice when Moses went down to Egypt, with a message of THUS SAITH THE LORD, and was vindicated; called on Israel, which was a people, not a church. Israel was a people; they never was a church. Cause, the word church means "called-out ones." They were the people of God. Then when they become anointed under the Word, and called out, they become the church of God. And then backslid, because they believed not the Word of God, and listened to a false prophet. I hope that sinks in.
Israel, being a people of God, come out under the hand of God, anointed with the Word... with the Power of God, seen the signs and wonders of God. And then when God was moving on with them, a false prophet come in, anointed, and taught something contrary to the original Word of God that they had heard; and every one of them perished in the wilderness, besides three people. Now hold it.

L-133   "As it was in the days of Noah, wherein eight souls were saved by water, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man." "As it was in the days of Lot, where three came out of Sodom, so shall it be in the time when the Son of man shall be revealed." I'm only quoting Scripture, the Lord's Word, which, "Heavens and earth will pass away..." It'll be a minority!

L-134   Notice here. Moses goes down to Aaron. Moses was to be God. God told him to be God, said, "You be God, and let Aaron your brother be your prophet. You put the words in his mouth if you can't speak well." Said, "But who made man dumb? Who made man to speak?" The Lord did.
And he walked down there. What did he do? He performed a true and just miracle that God told him to do. God told him to, "Go cast your rod down." Picked it up, and it was a serpent. He picked it up, and turned back to a rod. Said, "Go do that before Pharaoh, and say, 'THUS SAITH THE LORD.'"

L-135 And when Pharaoh saw this, we say, "Why, what a cheap magician trick." Said, "There's nothing to it. It's mental telepathy or something, you know. We got guys in our organization can do the same thing. 'Come here, Bishop So-and-so. And, you, you come out here.' We got them can do the same thing." That was Satan talking through Pharaoh.
That was God talking through Moses.

L-136   But watch this fellow come out. Jannes and Jambres walked out before Moses, and publicly before the people, and performed every miracle that Moses could do. "They will deceive the very Elected if it's possible." That right? Performed the same thing that Moses did. You get it? Now remember, it's THUS SAITH THE SCRIPTURE, that it'll repeat again in the last days.
What was the difference between Moses and Jambres?
Moses said, "Let blood come in the water."
And these false prophets said, "Sure, we put blood in the water, too." And it happened.

L-137 So Moses said, "Let there come fleas." What was he getting it? Straight from God. See?
And what did he do? He said, "Well, sure, we can bring fleas, too." And they did it. Any miracle that Moses could do, they could do, too!
Remember, keep that in mind, we're coming to it, after a while. They can do anything the rest of them can do, but they can't stay with the Word. They can't stay with the Word.
