The Power of ChangePSALM 102:25

Of old hast thou laid the foundation of the earth: and the heavens are the work of thy hands. 26 They shall perish, but thou shalt endure: yea, all of them shall wax old like a garment; as a vesture shalt thou change them, and they shall be changed: 27 But thou art the same, and thy years shall have no end.

WHY.IT.HAD.TO.BE.SHEPHERDS 18 …The great thing, all the Word of

God fits right together. If it doesn't fit together, it's not God's Word that's misfit; it's your thought is misfitting to the Word. It all fits together.

BALM.IN.GILEAD 6 The one thing that we have to move up to now is

a supreme faith to what we have had... You cannot have that faith until you know perfectly what you're doing… "Tomorrow I will meet you at a certain place." That's all a act of faith, because you've just done it so much, because it's a regular routine with you.

Well, that's the way the things of God are. After you have trusted Him, watched Him do so many things till it becomes just like a regular routine. And that's the condition I think the Church will be in just before the coming of the Lord. So the rapture will just go right on that way. It'll just be a regular routine of following the Scriptures and the plans of God. 59-1124

The Power of Change:ACTS 6:8-14

For we have heard him say, that this Jesus of Nazareth shall destroy this place, and shall change the customs which Moses delivered us.

ROMANS 1:26For this cause God gave them up unto vile

affections: for even their women did change the natural use into that which is against nature:

THE.FAITH.OF.ABRAHAM20 Therefore He, by election, He chose Abraham,

for He knew what Abraham would do… "For I know that Abraham will teach his children… I know that Abraham will send this message on down from one to the other generation."

But God foreknowing that, then He told Abraham in the beginning that He would save him and save his Seed after him, and would give him the unconditional covenant that He made with Abraham. Not because Abraham was good, but because God was good.

And every believer in here is a Christian, not that you're good, but because God was good to call you. You couldn't come yourself; your nature's against you.

21 You just couldn’t make a pig believe he's wrong eating slop, because it's his nature. A leopard could not change his spots. No matter how bad he would lick, he'd only brighten it. And you don't want reformation; you don't want to try to reform, or do a little better, you've got to be changed completely inside, and the nature come from within, and it'll work out. But get it right inside at the beginning. And you begin with a soul before the world was ever formed, when God created man in His own image. Now, you got to get that right, and that's what has to be borned-again, not your thinking. It moves with this. But get this right, and this will be all right too. If you just get your heart right, your intellectuals will move right with it.

FROM.THAT.TIME37 …And I say tonight, if a man wants to

have a real change come on him, let him come face to face with God and meet Him one time, then he can say, "From then on, from that time on, I was a changed man. I know by experience.”

WHERE.HAS.THY.STRENGTH.GONE.SAMSON 20 And when the Spirit of God comes into a

person, it changes them... The life that's in you motivates you... What we need is the Holy Ghost in the human being, in the heart. It'll take the new birth to do that: change that person, making him or her a new creature… The Holy Spirit won't work on one person one way and on another, another.

Whether it's America, Finland, France, when a woman or a man is borned of the kingdom of God, he becomes a new creature and stops the things of the world.

Bear: (Gr.) bastazo To take up with the hands

To take up in order to carry or bear, to put upon one's self (something) to be carried; to bear what is burdensome.

MATTHEW 8:17That it might be fulfilled which was spoken

by Esaias the prophet, saying, Himself took our infirmities, and bare our sicknesses.

infirmities of the weak, and not to please ourselves.

GALATIANS 6:2Bear ye one another's burdens, and so fulfil the law

of Christ.

GIFTS & CALLINGS.ARE.WITHOUT.REPENTANCE5 I couldn't help because that I was born with blue

eyes, or small in figure, but it's the way that God brought me here. I tell you; I want to be a great big man. But God didn't intend for me be a large man. He knew me just the way I am, so I could... I'm satisfied with the way God made me, and I move the best that I know how to glorify Him with this body while I'm here on earth. If He had made me a large man, I'd been a large man. And when He sends something for us to do, well, let us do it with all of our heart, giving Him glory for whatever He done for you.

me power, power to be a preacher, power to be a singer, power to speak with tongues, power to interpret tongues. It's full of power, for the Holy Spirit is the power of God.

POWER.OF.TRANSFORMATION307 And now there is many things, in talking about my

natural birth, there is many things in my natural birth that I can't brag on… My mother was a sinner, to begin with; my father was a sinner. And they come out of a bunch of cutthroats and gunfighters, and most of them died with their boots on; drunks and bootleggers… out of Kentucky. I've got nothing to brag on. I can't brag on my family tree.

308 But, glory to God, there is one thing I can brag on, my Second Birth, which comes from Jesus Christ. I can brag on that Parent that we have, for He is my Father. He is my Saviour. He is my Redeemer… I am no more a son of Charles Branham, I'm a son of Jesus Christ. I can brag on my Birth now. I can't brag on my first birth, there is nothing, I'm ashamed of that. But I'm not ashamed of my Second Birth. No, no. How did He do it? "By the washing of the water by the Word.”

you would. Someone else? God bless you, little boy. Look at the little fellow coming down about twelve years old. Shame on some of you old people, your heart calloused, smutty, and black.

Statistics shows that 98% of the people are saved are saved before they're 21 years old. You get so set in your ways, and you think you're right. "There's a way that seemeth right.”

Oregon Trail Ruts is a preserved site of wagon ruts of the Oregon Trail on the North Platte River, about .5 miles south of Guernsey, Wyoming. Wagon wheels, draft animals, and people

wore down the trail about two to six feet into a sandstone ridge here, during its heavy usage from 1841-1869.

SEPARATION.FROM.UNBELIEF36 You just get to an old rut all the time. Let's

break out into the deep, play out, don't be shore bound. Everybody's tied up with a certain thing; they're all right. But you tied yourself around something: "This is what we Methodists believe… Here's what we Pentecost believe." But here's what the Bible says. Amen. I believe, what He says. I still could belong to the Methodist, or Baptist, or wherever it was, but I want to believe what the Bible says, because the Holy Spirit in you will make you believe it. If it ever comes in, It believes it Itself.

TITUS 2:1-8 1 But speak thou the things which become sound doctrine: 2 That the aged men be sober, grave, temperate, sound in faith, in charity, in patience. 3 The aged women likewise, that they be in behaviour as becometh holiness, not false accusers, not given to much wine, teachers of good things; 4 That they may teach the young women to be sober, to love their husbands, to love their children, 5 To be discreet, chaste, keepers at home, good, obedient to their own husbands, that the word of God be not blasphemed. 6 Young men likewise exhort to be sober minded. 7 In all things shewing thyself a pattern of good works: in doctrine shewing uncorruptness, gravity, sincerity, 8 Sound speech, that cannot be condemned; that he that is of the contrary part may be ashamed, having no evil thing to say of you.

God bless you, brother. This man's name is Davis. He comes from Virginia. He's here to give up a habit of smoking, and a little grudge that he's held in his heart against a loved one since he was a child. That's what he's at the altar for this morning.

8 Sometimes a little love, stretched out, will just cure an old sore, an old place that's been a grudge or something. It'll heal it right over, just a little love, a little care.

THE.BREACH79-3 “For we know that the whole creation

groaneth and travaileth in pain together until now…” Oh, my, oh, my. Don't that make us old folks feel good? We understand this will take place at the first resurrection. See, nature is groaning; we are groaning; everything is groaning, because we realize there's something not right. And the only way you can groan and wait for it, is because there has been new life come in here that speaks of a new world.

Here a few days ago …the house had been full all day, people everywhere. The babies couldn't even eat… I went in, and there stood my dear beloved wife in a corner crying. There stood Sarah and Rebekah fighting over some blocks in the next room, little Joseph screaming at the top of his voice, the last one had left….

She was crying, I got talking to her; "But you know, honey, I seen the prettiest little dress in a certain city, you know." And the first thing you know she was peeling potatoes, she was all quietened down. When she quietened, the children quietened, Joseph quietened. See, you have to change the situation. You can do it.

16 I was speaking to a priest, recently. And he said, "Mr. Branham, are you a non-Catholic or a Protestant?” I said, "A Protestant.” He said, "Then you protest us.” "No, sir, not protest the people; it's the doctrine of the church."

He said, “Then do you call yourself Baptist or Presbyterian?” I said, "No, sir, just a Christian.” And he said, "Well, where do you form your form of doctrine? To be a Christian, you will have to have a basic to form a doctrine.” I said, "That is true. It's the Bible.” "Well, that's the history of the Catholic church."

And I said, "Well, the apostles were Catholics?” He said, "Yes, sir."

I said, "All right. I'm going to admit that that's right. Then why don't you also stay with the Scripture?"He said, "You see, Christ gave the Church power to change the Scripture any time they want to."

"Well, then you've changed and got it what you got it today?” He said, "Yes, sir."

I said, "Then I want to ask something: Then Christ must not be pleased with it, because upon the first Church He poured out the Holy Ghost. They healed the sick, and raised the dead, and cast out devils, and done great mighty miracles, under the doctrine of the first Catholic church, and it hasn't been seen in the Catholic church since they changed the doctrine.“ Now, let's go back and be original Catholics.

in the titles of Father, Son, Holy Ghost. That never did come into existence until the Nicaea creed was put on at Nicaea, Rome.

lays the power to heal all sickness. In the Church of the living God lays power to overcome all temptation.
