In this episode we continue to go in-depth on the topic we started looking at on What Should We Learn From The Golden Calf Incident In Exodus 32?

Exodus 32:1-6

1And when the people saw that Moses delayed to come down out of the mount, the people gathered themselves together unto Aaron, and said unto him, Up, make us gods, which shall go before us; for as for this Moses, the man that brought us up out of the land of Egypt, we wot not what is become of him.

2And Aaron said unto them, Break off the golden earrings, which are in the ears of your wives, of your sons, and of your daughters, and bring them unto me.

3And all the people brake off the golden earrings which were in their ears, and brought them unto Aaron.

4And he received them at their hand, and fashioned it with a graving tool, after he had made it a molten calf: and they said, These be thy gods, O Israel, which brought thee up out of the land of Egypt.

5And when Aaron saw it, he built an altar before it; and Aaron made proclamation, and said, To morrow is a feast to the LORD.

6And they rose up early on the morrow, and offered burnt offerings, and brought peace offerings; and the people sat down to eat and to drink, and rose up to play.

He which testifieth these things saith, Surely I come quickly. Amen. Even so, come, Lord Jesus. (Revelation 22:20)

22 And being that this is such a vital thing, I think just before…at the eve, rather, of our little revival, that we should look solemnly, and into the Scriptures, and see how close that we are. If I wanted to know what time it was, I would look at my watch. If I wanted to know what day of the week we was living in, or the month of the year, I would look at the calendar. And if I want to know the approaching time of this great event, I look at the Word of God, It tells the time when it is at hand. For the Bible said, “When these things begin to come to pass, lift up your head, your redemption is drawing nigh.” The time is at hand.

23 It was such a great thing to John, the revelator, on the Isle of Patmos, that when he saw the preview of the Coming of the Lord. When he saw the curses that rested upon the unbeliever, and the blessings that rest upon the believer, he screamed out, “Even so, come, Lord Jesus!” It so thrilled his heart after all he had seen, the events before His Coming, he screamed, “Even so, come, Lord Jesus!” And when the whole church age had been passed in his view, and he seen everything in major, the way it would happen, then the scream, “Come, Lord Jesus!” It must be a glorious thing that the Coming of the Lord draws near at hand.

24 Jesus, when His disciples had got to a place that they were looking at the carnal or the natural things of the earth. Now, here we want to stop just a few minutes. It doesn’t have to always be carnal that’ll draw us away, sometimes just the natural things will draw us away. Jesus’ servants, or His disciples, was pointing to Him the city temple, Jerusalem, the great temple where God in His Shekinah Glory had appeared in the Holiest of holies. And when they told Him of how goodly the stones was placed in, how the great master-mind of God had ordained that these stones was cut in many places in the world and come together. That, in forty years of its erecting, there wasn’t even to a buzz of a saw or the sound of a hammer. It was so masterly put together. And that how God had come in over the cherubims and it showed forth His Shekinah Glory, and how they had great hope in this great church.

25 And Jesus told them, “See not all these things.” Yet it was a holy place, it was a good place. It was a place, house of the dwelling of the Lord. But Jesus said, “Don’t see these things. I’ve got something to tell you that’s far greater than this. For there is coming the time” He said “that there will not be one stone left upon the other.”

26 No matter how well we try to take care of our physical being, no matter how hard we work for our organization, how hard we work in the church for our—our orders of the church, there’s coming a time when all those things will vanish and pass away.

And I saw a new heaven and a new earth: for the first heaven and the first earth were passed away; and there was no more sea. (Revelation 21:1)

180 What does it mean? The earth will be loosed from the grip of Satan. It’ll be loosed. It’ll be loosed from politics, it’ll be loosed from denominational religious systems; to be used for the Kingdom of God, to be establish it here on the earth. But as long it’s in the hands of Satan, politics…Satan the ruler of the earth, he owns it; it belonged to him, but now Christ has redeemed it.

181 One time, I was his property, but not now. One time, that little woman was his property, but not now. See, He come to loose the grip of it. He loosed the grip of sin, of Satan, upon my life, upon your life, and now we’re not his.

182 Have you often heard me say, in prayer, “take your hands off of God’s property”? See? Amen! Have faith to claim your own. That’s your rights. “Take your hands off of her! Take your hands off of him!” See, faith will do it. Oh, my! Not annihilate it, but, just, “Take your hands off of it,” to loose it, let it go, pass it away. It changes.

183 The earth will change. Politics will change. The religions will change. The denominations will pass away. Politics will pass away. The Kingdom of God shall be established.

184 We read in John, read John in Revelation 6:14, see, “it departed as a scroll.” The Bible said the…that it…John said, “I saw the heaven and earth depart as a scroll.” John, Revelation 6:14.

185 Jesus said, “Heavens and earth shall pass away,” or, other words, “heavens and earth shall be changed.” See, used that same word right there again.

186 No, not annihilated. For, later, in Revelation 21:2 to 24, he seen the New Jerusalem coming down from God out of Heaven, and sitting upon this earth. It doesn’t mean it’ll be annihilated. The systems will be changed.

187 Daniel saw the same thing. A Rock struck the world, was hewed out without hands; and the whole image of the systems was broke down and become like chaff on a summer threshingfloor, and the wind packed it away. And the Rock, Itself, grew into a great Mountain that covered the earth. Watch that Mountain now, in a little bit. That Mountain covered the earth.

188 Also, we find out here, over in, also, in Revelation there, it said, “The kings of the New Earth will bring their honor and glory into it.” In the earth, is sitting…The New Jerusalem is sitting on this earth. See, it just changed.

189 You’re the same man, in stature, that you was when God called you, same woman. But, you see, what it did, it was a regeneration. The old life passed away. The old desire has passed away. When, you used to like to drink, and cuss, and fuss, and stew, and run around, and immoral, that thing just died. See? But now you are used…Then you was Satan’s instrument; now you are redeemed.

190 And that’s what the world will be, the same way, redeemed, a New Heavens and New Earth.

191 Just like you, “You are a new creature.” And the Greek word there, anybody knows, said, “You are a new creation.” Amen! A new creation in the same old temple. Hallelujah. Watch what happens here now. Glorious! All right.

Ye have wearied the Lord with your words. Yet ye say, Wherein have we wearied him? When ye say, Every one that doeth evil is good in the sight of the Lord, and he delighteth in them; or, Where is the God of judgment? (Malachi 2:17)

42 We find out when Uzziah got lifted up in his heart, we find out that God smote him. What did he do? He tried so much to try to take a minister’s place. He thought because he got lifted up, God had blessed him, made him a great man, he could just do anything he wanted to.

43 I heard a young man tell me not long ago, he said, “You know, God loves me so much, Brother Branham, He just lets me do anything I want to. He don’t care.”

44 I hear so much today about God being a good God. He is. I’m not disputing that. He is a good God. But He is also a God of wrath. His Holiness requires righteousness. His law requires judgment. If there is no judgment to law, law is of non-effect. What good would it do to say, “It’s against the law to run this redlight down here,” without being a penalty behind it? See, it would be no law. They couldn’t do nothing about it; there isn’t a penalty. There is a penalty for transgressing God’s laws, and, it will, you’ll have to pay to the utmost farthings before you’re brought out.

45 Now many man today makes that sad mistake like this fellow did, when he got exalted, got big, got so he had everything in his own hands, he felt secure, “God loves me so much, till there is nothing can bother me now.” When he did that, he throwed hisself in the same shape that Nebuchadnezzar did one time, as you Bible readers know. Then we find out that he was smitten with leprosy because he tried to take a minister’s place.

46 Not long ago, I speak international for the Full Gospel Business Men. Sometime ago, I was sitting in a place, it was over in Jamaica, we was having a meeting.

47 I love them, because it’s people out of all the churches. It gives me a chance to—to speak. Sometime the churches won’t cooperate, but their businessmen are cooperating, they—they’ll have to kind of hold their face for the businessmen’s sake.

48 So now we find out, that in there, I was having a meeting. That night when we come back over to the Flamingo Motel, I said, “I’m ashamed of you fellows.” I said, “It’s a disgrace. All you talked about, before all the political leaders and things, and businessmen up-and-down here, was about, ‘I had a little bitty business down here, and I got sixteen Cadillacs,’ or whatever more.” I said, “Them man, you can’t compare with them.”

49 That’s what’s the trouble with the church today, you are trying to compare with Hollywood. You’re trying to make it like Hollywood. Remember, Hollywood glares; the Gospel glows. You can’t go over on their ground; you’ve got to bring them on our ground. That’s where we’ve got to get them. Got to get them over here, not us go out there. We could never compare with them. We don’t want to. They shine and glitter; the Gospel glows with meekness and humility. That’s just the difference between a glow and a glare.

I have loved you, saith the Lord. Yet ye say, Wherein hast thou loved us? Was not Esau Jacob's brother? saith the Lord: yet I loved Jacob, And I hated Esau, and laid his mountains and his heritage waste for the dragons of the wilderness. (Malachi 1:2-3)

57 And so, therefore, Melchisedec, the great Priest, like a man, He had no beginning and He has no end. And when we, through that theophany, that, we were made in the image of God before the world was ever made; when that theophany has been made flesh and dwelt among us, then, through His death, we ourselves receive His Spirit and we have no end; Eternal Life; not Angels, but men and women. Oh, I…Somehow, if I could only get it in a way that my—my audience would catch it! You will never be an Angel. God made Angels, but God made man. And what God does is off of God, which is as Eternal as God is. And man is just as Eternal as his Creator, because he was made from Eternity.

58 But sin has an end, suffering has an end. Therefore, there cannot be an Eternal hell. There’s a hell, fire and brimstone, we know that, but there’s no Eternal hell. There’s only one type of Eternal Life and that belongs to God. If you’re to suffer forever, you got Eternal Life. Hell has an end, it may be billions of years, but it’ll finally come to an end.

59 The Bible doesn’t say, anywhere, that they suffered Eternally, said, “Forever and forever.” Jonah thought he was in the belly of the whale “forever,” too. Forever has a distance or a time limit. But Eternal is perpetual, it has no beginning or end. It’s like a ring, a circle. And as our time moves on, we’re only in revolving around the great motives of God.

60 God’s motive was to make man in His image, to fellowship with Him. And He made him a tangible being. Now, sin brought us into a place of—of—of corruption, but that never stops the program of God. And, sinner friend, today, if you’re not born again of the Spirit of God, you have an end somewhere. And your end is chaos, in ruin, and suffering and misery. But to you who have believed on the Lord Jesus, and accepted the same as your personal Saviour, it’s just as Eternal as God is Eternal. You have no end, “I give unto them Eternal Zoe, God’s own Life, and they will never perish or come into the judgment even, but has passed from death unto Life.” That’s what He was. That’s what He come for.

61 Now, Jesus, in His coming, of His priesthood, did not come just for a sympathy’s sake. Many people teach it like that, that He come, saying, “Well, maybe if I suffer, I will be a—a—a pitiful sight and people will surely come to Me.” That’s an error. There’s no Scripture for that.

For, every person that ever will be saved, God knew them before the world was ever formed. The Bible said so. God is not willing, now, that anybody should perish. He wants them all to come to repentance. But, being God, by foreknowledge He knew it.

62 Look in Romans, 8th chapter. Paul was holding up there, saying about the election of God, that, “Esau and Jacob, before either baby was born, or anything, God said that He knew them and He hated Esau and loved Jacob,” before either boy had a—had a chance to express their gratitude, for He was God. He know…He is infinite. If He is infinite, He knowed every flea, every fly, every gnat, everything that’d ever be on the earth, He knew it. He’s the infinite, Eternal, immortal, blessed God, omnipotent, omnipresent, omniscient. There is nothing that He doesn’t know. That’s the reason He can tell what the end will be. He knowed the end from the beginning.

57-0908m - "Hebrews, Chapter Five And Six #1"

But it shall be one day which shall be known to the Lord, not day, nor night: but it shall come to pass, that at evening time it shall be light. (Zechariah 14:7)

158 So we see the evening Light’s here. And what does it do to have Light, if you don’t have any eyes to see how to get around in It? What is the evening Light? The Light comes on, to reveal something. Is that right? If there’s something here, you feel and you can’t understand what it is, in the darkness, then turn a light on. It’s to reveal! What’s Malachi 4 to do? See? Do the same thing. What was the opening of the Seven Seals to do, where all these denominations staggering around in this…?…Is to reveal, bring out. If you haven’t got any eyes, then what’s the use to reveal? There has to be eyes, first, to see. Is that right? To reveal Malachi 4, reveal Saint Luke 17:30, Saint John 14:12, also John 15:24, 16:13. And to also reveal Revelation 10:1 to 7, the opening of the Seven Seals, and the seventh angel’s Message; to open up, to reveal, when the evening Light’s come. Now if a man…

159 In the Laodicean Age, the people were (what?) “naked.” Are they? “Blind.” What good does Light do to a blind man? If the blind leads the blind, don’t they all fall in the ditch? “Naked, blind, and don’t know it.” Even their mental faculties are gone, their spiritual faculties of mental, spiritual understanding. See?

“Heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God; trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, and despisers of those that are good; having a form of godliness, but denying the Power thereof.” The power of revelation; they don’t even believe in it. See? They don’t believe in such things as prophets. And so they don’t believe in it. They believe that—that Malachi 4 is to be a certain church or a certain organization.

When he come the first time, he was a man. When he come the second time, with a double portion, he was a man. When he come in the form of John the Baptist, he was a man. See?

In the last days, when the evening Lights begin to shine, eyes will become open and you’ll see where you’re going. Then the Body is already formed, standing upon its feet, taking motion, moving by the Holy Spirit. What? The same One that moved upon the prophets that wrote the Bible, the same Holy Ghost moving in a Body filled with the Holy Ghost, moved in the Holy Ghost, out of every organization, every kindred, tongue, and people.

160 A little lady here, she don’t belong in this organization, or this organization…belong in this congregation. She comes from somewhere else, and she come in this morning, got a picture there. She was…give it to my son, who was very much astonished. I don’t know whether she ever heard about This or not. I don’t know. She had a picture of this Angel of the Lord that was on the Seven Church Ages, Seven Seals opened, out there, when it did. Said, looked back through there, and she seen that standing in the sky, in a dream. And she looked back through there and seen that, seen somebody in white, marching forward; and behind it, said it looked…Said, “Brother Branham, it was you.” And said, “Marched in there,” said, “behind you, was people of different colors, packing banners; Georgia, Alabama, all different kind of places, marching forward,” coming up into the headship to where Christ was being revealed into the vision. Oh, hallelujah!

65-0822m - "Christ Is Revealed In His Own Word"

In those days was Hezekiah sick unto death. And the prophet Isaiah the son of Amoz came to him, and said unto him, Thus saith the Lord, Set thine house in order; for thou shalt die, and not live. Then he turned his face to the wall, and prayed unto the Lord, saying, I beseech thee, O Lord, remember now how I have walked before thee in truth and with a perfect heart, and have done that which is good in thy sight. And Hezekiah wept sore. And it came to pass, afore Isaiah was gone out into the middle court, that the word of the Lord came to him, saying, Turn again, and tell Hezekiah the captain of my people, Thus saith the Lord, the God of David thy father, I have heard thy prayer, I have seen thy tears: behold, I will heal thee: on the third day thou shalt go up unto the house of the Lord. (2 Kings 20:1-5)

14 After all, friends, it’s the prayer of faith that saves the sick. Sometimes I’ve noticed here the last few nights, I’ve been watching, and I noticed the people… I come through, and maybe, they—they want to… Some… See, if there’s something in their life, that’s just not tallying up right, and when they do that, when they find that out, then I can tell in the Spirit, the way It moves they want me to pray for them. See? After that, they’re wanting me to pray for them. See?

And after all, this… It’s—it’s prayer is the most vital force that God ever put into the hand of mankind. The most effective force that’s known to man, is prayer. Do you believe that? It is. It’s prayer that changes things.

15 Look at Hezekiah when…?… and the prophet went up and said, “All right, Hezekiah, you’re not coming off the bed. God’s done said you was going to die right there where you’re at.”

And Hezekiah studied it over, if he just had fifteen years longer… Now remember, you’ve got to give God a cause, a reason. Now, he didn’t say, “Just because I can get out there and ride around in a chariot, and show the people I’m a king.” No, he wanted to rebuild the altars of the God; and a few things had to be done to get the kingdom in order right.

And he prayed that God would give him fifteen years longer, and he wept bitterly, just wept to God. He said, “God, I beseech You to consider me. I’ve walked before You with a perfect heart.”

How many of us can say that tonight, we’ve walked before Him with a perfect heart?

“I’ve walked before Thee, Lord, with a perfect heart. And I ask You to consider me. Now, I want…”

And God Almighty, Jehovah, reconsidered that man’s case, because he prayed. Think of that. Almighty God, that had pronounced death upon the man, reconsidered His case. My, that’s too much for me. Great Jehovah, to a mortal, to one of the earth, would reconsider His Word that He’d said to him.

16 Now, God has ways of doing things. Looked like He would have spoke right back and told him, “But I—I considered your case, again; I’m going to let you stay for that, if you’ll do that.” But He didn’t. He spoke to the prophet, and sent the prophet all the way back up there again to tell him. Said, “All right, God heard your prayer.” See, God revealed to the prophet what was going to happen; he come back, “Your—your days is considered, and you’re going to come off the bed now in three days.” You got some poultices and so forth, put on him. And Hezekiah come off the bed and was made well.

52-0716 - "Thou Knowest All Things"

And I will pour upon the house of David, and upon the inhabitants of Jerusalem, the spirit of grace and of supplications: and they shall look upon me whom they have pierced, and they shall mourn for him, as one mourneth for his only son, and shall be in bitterness for him, as one that is in bitterness for his firstborn. (Zechariah 12:10)

91 Now, God, so anointed Jesus with the fulness of Himself till the…He was God’s Gift to the world. That the wise men are clearly identified, that they’re offering their gift to Him; showed that in their heart they knew who He was, and what He was going to do for them. So (no wonder) the first thing they did, they fell down, perfectly in order, and worshipped Him. Before they could even understand it, they fell down and worshipped Him and then presented their gifts. That’s the way to have real Christmas: worship Him, then present your gift; presenting your body as a living sacrifice, holy and acceptable to God.

92 But you know what, after the wise men did that? The father and mother of Christ…the foster father (of course) and also mother, because God was both His father and mother. But we find out that they accepted these gifts from these wise men. No wonder they were called wise men. They were wise. They were really…had wisdom. If men today would just be that wise, just as wise! It takes a wise man to come to Christ. A man that turns away from Him is a unwise man. But it takes a wise man, to come to Christ.

93 Now notice! And after then the wise men identifying Him what He would be, and we find through the Scripture that’s exactly what He was: Deity in service for death. What for? Deity in service to God for death. Jesus was Deity in service for death, to redeem the world. But what did the world do to It? They refused It. They rejected It. Why? Some of them, a big part of them, did that because this: because He did die! They said, “He couldn’t be Deity and die.” The Man (the body) was not Deity, but Deity was in the body. This body has to perish. The very Christ that’s in you is the only thing that can raise you up. That’s Deity, God in you.

94 Now, notice! Now, the same as now, they reject identified Deity. Do you get it? They will certainly put their name on a church book and say, “I’ll try to live by this creed.” They’ll take an oath by this. But when it comes to accepting Deity, and expressing back the same kind of a gift like they did…that you are identified by your gift, that you give your entire being to It, to identified Deity. Then you identify yourself with the Deity, by giving all you are, what you are, to Deity Himself.

95 Now, Christ in this day, that we now live in, is still a Dei-…identifying Himself: Deity, among the people. He’s still Deity, because He is the Word. And when we see the Word living Itself, then we know that man can’t do that. It’s Deity, the Word being made manifest by man. And Jesus said Himself, “The Son can do nothing in Himself. I can’t do nothing, I’m a Man,” Jesus said. “But My Father that dwelleth in Me, He showeth Me all things that Himself doeth.” Amen! There you are! What is it? Deity being identified in man. Now, the same thing is today; that Deity, the promised Word for this day, can identify Itself in you. Amen! Then give your whole to It. Show that you believe in It. Give It Deity: believe It, service, and be ready to die out to yourself and your own thoughts. But today It’s rejected as It was then.
