But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life.

I and My Father ARE ONE (John 10:30)

What a statement. Immediately the Jews wanted to stone Him because when Jesus said that, the Jews knew He was saying He indeed is the Messiah. When Brother Branham was witnessing to a Rabbi, he quoted Isaiah 9:6. The Rabbi was thinking that the prophet was preaching to him three gods. He objected and said, “you can't chop God into three and give it to the Jews”. “Which one of them is your god? Which one is your god: the Father, the Son or the Holy Ghost? Which one is yours?”

The prophet replied, "that is it, Rabbi, we are not cutting God into three, would it be hard for you to believe the prophets?” “No!” the Rabbi replied. The prophet said “There are no three gods, do you know Isaiah 9:6? To us a Child is born, a Son is given, be called Counselor, Mighty God, Prince of Peace?” The Rabbi said: “ That was the Messiah”.

“Then, Rabbi, what relationsip will Messiah be to God?” the prophet continued. “He will be God” replied the Rabbi. “Exactly right” said the prophet and the thunders and lightning flash, and the Rabbi's eyes were opened. Tears began to well up in his eyes because he knew by the revealing of the Word of God that Jesus was indeed Messiah and He will be God. But what did the Rabbi do with this revelation, that Jesus was speaking the truth and that He was the Son of God?

"Yes." He said, "If I preach that..." We was standing at Benton Harbor. He said, "See down there? I'd be in the street, begging my bread."
I said, "That's a Jew for you." That's right. I said, "I'd rather lay on my belly, and drink branch water, and eat soda crackers, and preach the truth of God, than to have my name like yours on this building in gold letters, and have fried chicken three times a day. Yes, sir. The truth."
The tears rolled down his cheeks, said, "I'll see you later,"
I said, "Not... Let's see Him now." But he went back.
Then, when he went in the door, he turned around and looked at me, and said, "God is able of these stones to rise children to Abraham." He believed it. What? He was afraid like this rich young ruler to make an investment. That's right.

Yet there was another Rabbi who heard the sermon on the Red Heifer.

61-0101  REVELATION.CHAPTER.FOUR.2_  JEFFERSONVILLE.IN  ROJC 585-643  SUNDAY_

217      And when the Lord had me to speak on that red heifer sacrifice, after the service he met some of the brethren back there, said, "I want to meet the man. I know that he hasn't even got an education but... " Said, "I'm a Jewish rabbi who knows all those different approaches and things like that," said, "I never seen that in all my life." Said, "I never seen it."
And now he's a Pentecostal rabbi, filled with the Holy Ghost, going everywhere, preaching the Gospel. "Pentecostal rabbi," he calls himself. He went over to at the Washington Youree Hotel, the other day when we met together down at Brother Jack's, and the lady knew him, she said, "Rabbi," she said, "we got a nice room for you, but" said, "we haven't got in no television there."
He said, "Them things are 'hellevisions,' cast them out! Don't want them in there, anyhow; it's in there, I'd make you throw it out."
She said, "Rabbi!"
He said, "I'm a Pentecostal rabbi." Hallelujah!
Said, "Now, when you go to Israel, Brother Branham, I want to go with you." Said, "We can take it to our people."
I said, "Not now, Rabbi, not now. Not now, not the hour yet, wait a little bit."


It is without any reservation that we say Jesus Christ is indeed come in the flesh. The prophet said your flesh and my flesh. He did not say his flesh alone, else that would have made him antichrist, because no man can claim to have the fulness of God dwelling in him fully except our Lord Jesus Christ.

1Jn 4:2-3
(2)  Hereby know ye the Spirit of God: Every spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is of God:
(3)  And every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus Christ is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come; and even now already is it in the world.

See, other bible version translated "is come" to "has come" or "did come" thereby changing the complete meaning of the text. John clearly wrote IS COME (present tense). And the man I was talking to, said he is not particular about grammar??! What grammar are we talking about? The grammar of the I AM. Not I was, nor I will be, but I AM. The Lord Jesus said, if you do not believe that I AM he, you shall DIE in your sins (unbelief).

Joh 8:23  And he said unto them, Ye are from beneath; I am from above: ye are of this world; I am not of this world.
Joh 8:24  I said therefore unto you, that ye shall die in your sins: for if ye believe not that I am
he, ye shall die in your sins.

Joh 8:58
(58)  Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am.

See, the "he" was added to make it for reading, but Jesus said if you believe not that I AM. Ye shall die in your sins. Did not the prophet sang this song, who did you say I AM and from whence did I came?

60-1204E  THE.PATMOS.VISION_  JEFFERSONVILLE.IN  ROJC 69-130  SUNDAY_
They used to sing a little song:

I AM that spoke to Moses, in a burning bush of fire,
I AM the God of Abraham, the Bright and Morning Star.
I AM the Rose of Sharon; oh, whence did you say that I came?
Do you know my Father, or can you tell His Name?
Oh, who do you say that I am, or from whence did you say that I came?
Do you know my Father, or can you tell His Name?
I'M Alpha, Omega, the beginning from the end,
I AM the whole creation, and Jesus is the Name.

I came from God and I go to God. The son is in the bosom of the Father. See, he said I broke it to you that God was in Christ, the great condescending, the Creator who became our Redeemer and now I break it to you that Christ is in the Church. Dwelling in the body of Christ extending the same ministry to the Gentiles until the days of the Gentiles are finished. What God was He poured into Christ and what Christ was He poured into His Church.

Today, as I write this, we are reminded of D-Day, or deliverance day. As this day marks the end of World War II, it also marks the end of the sixth trumpet and the seventh is about to be blown. The sixth seal also being manifested after the Church is raptured. This is typed so beautifully in the book of Ruth, when Naomi returned to her homeland with the Gentile Bride. When Ruth met the Bridegroom, the Redeemer, she did not have to toil anymore. She took her rest as her redeemer went before the elders to declare his kinsmenship and restored the land ownership to the family of Elimelech, also of the tribe of Judah.

Rth 3:1
(1) Then Naomi her mother in law said unto her, My daughter, shall I not seek rest for thee, that it may be well with thee?

Rth 3:17-18
(17) And she said, These six measures of barley gave he me; for he said to me, Go not empty unto thy mother in law.
(18)
Then said she, Sit still, my daughter, until thou know how the matter will fall: for the man will not be in rest, until he have finished the thing this day.

Hence there stood a prophet to declare to us the whole council of God, the seventh angel messenger when he begins to sound, the Mystery of God is finished. Do we know how to rest as Ruth was also resting after she met the kinsmen redeemer? Only believe. Don't try to reinterpret or rehash the revelation of the Mystery of God. It is finished.

E-96 Now, my parents and my both--before me were Catholic. But brother, you see there's not much Catholic left in me as the triune beings. That's right. Yes, sir. They believed in the Eternal Sonship, or there's three actual individual being: God the Father, an old man with long white beard; God, the Son, a middle age man; and the Holy Ghost was a mascot boy like. There's no such things. There's only one God. And I different agree with the organization of Pentecost that calls the Oneness like your finger is one. That's wrong. Absolutely, it's wrong.

God... Jesus couldn't have been His Own Father, and if God is a Man, then Jesus was born sexual desire and not virgin birth. That settles the whole thing. You see? If He's one like your finger's one, then what? Then He was His Own daddy. How could He have been? That's wrong. He had a Father, Jesus did.

E-97 You just can't see the manifestation of God unfolding Himself a loving Father, coming right down from the heavens unfolding Hisself, coming down to live among human beings here on earth. There you are. God was in His Son, and now I've unfolded to you also, God is in His people. Do you believe that? Then when God, that same God that lived back yonder in the days when the... Moses seen the Pillar of Fire, was that right? How many believes that was the Angel of the Covenant, say, "Amen." [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Well, the Angel of the Covenant was Jesus Christ.

Moses esteemed the riches of Christ greater treasures than that of Egypt, and he forsook Egypt following Jesus Christ. He followed Christ through the wilderness which was the Logos. All right.

Heb 11:24-26

(24) By faith Moses, when he was come to years, refused to be called the son of Pharaoh's daughter;
(25)
Choosing rather to suffer affliction with the people of God, than to enjoy the pleasures of sin for a season;
(26)
Esteeming the reproach of Christ greater riches than the treasures in Egypt: for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward.

You see, how many theologians or man appointed ministers today, can reveal to you that the Pillar of Fire was the Angel of the Covenant and is Jesus Christ? Verse 26 above says, Moses esteeming the REPROACH OF CHRIST greater riches than the treasures in Egypt for he had respect unto the recompence of the reward. See, if Moses had gone after the riches and power of Egypt, it would be temporal, for as long as his human life span and like pharaoh could end up dead in the battle field. But Moses chose to realise his root, not of a man born of a woman, but a prophet leader ordained before the foundation of the world. Moses live today. He was seen with the Lord Jesus in Mount Transfiguration with Elijah, and both of them are identified in Revelation 11 to be the two witnesses calling out the 144,000 from the many in Israel today. Yes 12,000 sealed in each tribe with Joseph receiving a double portion because the tribes of Dan and Ephraim were omitted for the sins of Jeroboam in the old testament.

The Lord wrote with His finger on the tablets of Stone and the first commandment was :

Exo 20:2-3

(2) I am the LORD thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.
(3)
Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

Thou shalt have no other gods BEFORE me. And true Israel never break this commandment and those which are not Israel though they were called Israel went and serve other gods which were no gods, statues and images cast-outs or framed by human hands. As it was then, so it is today, the prophet leader of our day clearly revealed to us this Mystery of God and yet there are those from within the same exodus group, those who were called out of false doctrines, false leaders trying to fool the people back into serving their own imagine god. That there were two in the beginning and that one was the father and the other was the son. So instead of a Madonna and child, they produced a father as the first person and Jesus as the second person because all who had listened to the prophet messenger knew that the Holy Ghost was the Father of Jesus Christ. Yet they taught by flatteries and omission because they don't call their lies as twinity or duality, and they tagged those who believe in the first commandment as Oneness. By this twist of words, they claimed that all are Oneness without knowing it. Lets go back to what the prophet said about Oneness!

There's only one God. And I different agree with the organization of Pentecost that calls the Oneness like your finger is one. That's wrong. Absolutely, it's wrong.

God... Jesus couldn't have been His Own Father, and if God is a Man, then Jesus was born sexual desire and not virgin birth. That settles the whole thing. You see? If He's one like your finger's one, then what? Then He was His Own daddy. How could He have been? That's wrong. He had a Father, Jesus did.”

The prophet said There's ONLY one God. But he differed with those Pentecostals that calls the Oneness like your finger is one. That's wrong, Absolutely, its wrong. Jesuse couldn't have been His Own Father.....

Oh yea, they shout this quote loud and clear. See, we are not Oneness, said these twoness people, but they said they are not twoness either, because they knew full well the prophet said, I am neither oneness, twoness or threeness...

53-1129E TESTIMONY_ WEST.PALM.BEACH.FL SUNDAY_

« E-14 † And that day they come in by special plane, special trains until that place packed completely full of people. They didn't care whether they was Methodists, Baptists, whether they were Pentecostal Oneness, Twoness, Threeness, or Church of God, or whether they was riding a one hump camel, two hump camel, or whatever it was. There was one thing in common, and that was Divine healing was at stake, and every man believed in it and here he come to take the part of it. That's what it takes.

Wait till Christianity comes to that spot, and you'll find all the Methodists, and Baptists, and all of them looking just alike then, everybody coming right together, pressing into the Kingdom of God.

65-1125 THE.INVISIBLE.UNION.OF.THE.BRIDE.OF.CHRIST_ SHREVEPORT.LA V-2 N-15 THURSDAY_

« 279 † We all know that the modern church, in its present condition and its present state, is in no condition to finish up the great commission that God gave the Church for this day. How many Pentecostal can say "amen" to that? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] Right. See? It's in...

280 We're oneness, twoness, threeness, this, that, other, fuss, fight. One is this, and one is that, and other. And every one of them, afraid to face the Word, right down to the test. See? They know. You tell them about It; they say, "I--I can't help it. I can't believe That. I don't care what he does. I..." See? See? See? Shows what mammy and pappy you have. "You might be a state presbyter someday. You might be this, that, or the other." You better be a son of God.

See, everyone wants to tag you so that they can stay in their comfort zone of false representation. Did the prophet said this? Did the prophet said that? Do you think it is what he meant? See, we can show you, they said, in the scripture what he really meant, and tie them up together to show you that there is a Father and there is a Son in the Godhead? You mean, I asked them, that  Jesus is the second person in the Godhead? No, they said, He is not the second person but a son. I don't get it, I said,  "If he is not the Father, then He must be another person right?" So one time, in my car, I asked this man bluntly and forwardly because I don't want to be mistaken of what he was trying to teach. I asked: “Are you saying you believe there were two from the beginning”? Without hesitation, he said, “Yes, I believe there were two”. There was another witness present in my car and they are both into this today. I wonder whether they would deny what they declared that day in the year 2005 when I was courteous enough to send them back to their hotel in my car after the other ministers (at least more than 8 others were there) were trying to talk to them in my apartment house. Now let us see what the prophet said:

53-0729 QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS.ON.GENESIS_ JEFFERSONVILLE.IN COD WEDNESDAY_

« 176 † Here's the message we have here. Jesus was Jehovah inveiled in flesh, come down inveiled. Now, God (Father, Son, and Holy Ghost) is not like your finger, one, like some people thinks it. The whole thing's just like... No, God is... I just unfolded it for you awhile ago (See?); that there's a trinity in the One.

I'm a trinity in one. I'm soul, body, and spirit in one person. Is that right? Sure. I'm--I'm made up of--of cells, blood, and nerves, and yet one being. See? Everything you look at is in a trinity, and a trinity in one.

There was a trinity in the ark: the bottom floor, the creeping things; the second floor for the fowls, flying things; and the third floor for the Noah and his family. Everything...

In the tabernacle there was a congregation, the holy place, the holiest of holy. See?

And there's been three dispensations: the Fatherhood, the Sonship, and the Holy Spirit dispensation. See what I mean? But those three all... We don't say, "our Gods." That's heathen, and the Jew knows that. But when you can make it to him that this Jesus is God, Jehovah God, not a second person or a third person; it's the same Person all the time making Hisself manifest... See? And then with signs and wonders to prove that Jesus has rose from the dead...

65-0822M CHRIST.IS.REVEALED.IN.HIS.OWN.WORD_ JEFFERSONVILLE.IN V-4 N-10 SUNDAY_

« 74 † Notice. To misinterpret Jesus, in the form of God in a man, you would make Him--you would make Him one God out of three. To misinterpret Jesus Christ being the Word, you would make Him one God out of three, or you would make Him the second Person in a Godhead. And to do that, you would mess the whole Scripture up. You'd never get nowhere. So It must not be misinterpreted.

75 And if you say that a certain thing, you put an interpretation on It, and you apply It to another time; or It's been applied to another time, you also make an incorrect interpreting.

65-0822M CHRIST.IS.REVEALED.IN.HIS.OWN.WORD_ JEFFERSONVILLE.IN V-4 N-10 SUNDAY_

« 76 † If anybody misinterpret Jesus Christ in the Bible, of not being God Himself, make Him the second Person, or one God out of three, this would upset every Word in the entire Bible. It would break the first commandment, "Thou shalt not have any other god before Me." All right. It would make the whole Christian race a bunch of pagan worshippers worshipping three different gods. See what kind of a Bible you'd have? Then it'd make us what the Jews say we are. Said, "Which one of them gods is your God?" See? So, you see, you can't... You mustn't misinterpret the Bible.

For, Jesus Himself is the interpretation of the Bible, when He's made manifest in the age that the part of His Body is being made manifest. If it's a hand age, it must be a hand; it can't be a head age. If it's a voice age, well, then, it can't be a foot age. See? And now we're at the eye age. And now the next, is Him Hisself, to come. Seeing; prophetic!

Really, I don't know how clear anyone wants to cut it, but he said, IF ANYBODY MISINTERPRET JESUS CHRIST IN THE BIBLE, OR NOT BEING GOD HIMSELF, MAKE HIM A SECOND PERSON, OR ONE GOD OUT OF THREE, THIS WOULD UPSET EVERY WORD IN THE ENTIRE BIBLE IT WOULD BREAK THE FIRST COMMANDMENT....

Now he said, For, Jesus Himself is the interpretation of the bible. We called it the Revelation of Jesus Christ. Or Jesus Christ unveiled before us. He was veiled to so many for thousand of years, but now He is unveiled by this seventh angel ministry before he even begins to sound.

When Jesus said, I am alpha and omega, the first and the last, there should be no more questions. Who can be Alpha and Omega. Colossians said All things were created by Him...

Col 1:15-17

(15) Who is the image of the invisible God, the firstborn of every creature:
(16)
For by him were all things created, that are in heaven, and that are in earth, visible and invisible, whether they be thrones, or dominions, or principalities, or powers: all things were created by him, and for him:
(17)
And he is before all things, and by him all things consist.

See, He is before all things and by Him all things consist. Even thrones, dominions and principalities. See, if anyone claimed there was a higher power than Jesus Christ, that anyone is an unbeliever of this clear bible passage. By Him were all things created....

If they cannot believe Isaiah 9:6 can they read Revelation 15:3 and understand ?

Rev 15:3
And they sing the song of Moses the servant of God, and the song of the Lamb, saying, Great and marvellous are thy works, Lord God Almighty; just and true are thy ways, thou King of saints.

If the King of saints is LORD GOD ALMIGHTY...CAN THERE BE ANOTHER ALMIGHTY?

Joh 1:1-4
(1)
In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.
(2)
The same was in the beginning with God.
(3)
All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.
(4)
In him was life; and the life was the light of men.

See, in Him was LIFE. He is the giver of Life. The Tree of Life in the garden of Eden. Notice, John makes it clear he was talking about the Word. He did not say the child or the son. Because a child or son has to be birthed. And God created that blood cell in Mary so that Jesus was the only begotten of the Father. For God so loved the world, that He gave us His only begotten Son...

To make sure of this, John again wrote in 1 John 5:7

1Jn 5:7 For there are three that bear record in heaven, the Father, the Word, and the Holy Ghost: and these three are one. 1Jn 5:8 And there are three that bear witness in earth, the Spirit, and the water, and the blood: these three agree in one.
