One time this little woman had--had received the Holy Ghost. And she was a very sweet little person. They... She said... Well, she'd had a hard life, and her husband was an alcoholic. And so, she just kept on; she bore with him. He says, "You want to go to church, honey, take off. But I just go down to the saloon, down at the old Brown Derby, down here. Go and--on." So they hung out down there all the time, used to be Bonifers. Many of you old-timers here remember when Bonifer had there on the corner of... It's called Brown Derby now, I believe it is.
117 So, hanging around down there, and the first thing you know, one night come up a question about church and about Christians. One of the old drunks setting there said, "There ain't no such a thing as Christians any more." Said, "There is no such a thing. All this bunch of hypocrites," said, "you see them out here smoking, drinking, doing the same thing that we do," and said, "call themselves Christians. There is no such."
This one drunk raised up and said, "Just a minute. There's one that I know about. "
Said, "Who is it?"
Said, "It's my wife." See? She'd become salty. He was catching it all the time.
He said, "I bet if she was put to a squeeze..."
He said, "No, she's still a Christian; I'll prove it to you." Said, "I tell you what let's do; let's go up home, and I'll show you whether she's a Christian or not." Said, "Let's go up home, and now, let's really be drunk. We're going to act like we're really drunk." Knocked at the door, come in staggering over everything and--and... "Why don't you set around this a-way," and everything. And she set them all a chair and (his guests, you know)--and tried to make them just as welcome as could be. Said, "I want you to fix us some supper." And so they--she went out and fixed some. Said, "we want ham and eggs." He knowed they had it, so they fixed the ham and eggs. When he got there at the table, he looked at them like that, picked up his plate, and slammed the stuff on the floor, said, "You know, I don't like my eggs like that. Come on boys let's get out of here anyhow," like that--like that.
119 They went out and set down like that, you know. And she come out; she said, "Dear, I'm--I'm sorry I didn't get them fixed; I'll fix some more for you."
"Oh, nonsense, you knowed I didn't want them that way in the first place," just carrying on like that. They went out there, and set down, and act like they was drunk. They heard her in there kind of snubbing to herself, singing real low voice:
Must Jesus bear the cross alone,
All the world go free?
There's a cross for every one,
And there's a cross for me.
This consecrated cross I'll bear,
Till death shall set me free,
One drunk looked at the other one, said, "She's a Christian; she's got it." And that little woman led her husband, plus these others to Christ that night. See? Why? See? Just be real sweet. Just remember, He knows all about it.
So, sister, or brother, whoever it might be, or brother, it is here, 'cause he asked about his wife, you just be salty; she'll get thirsty if there's anything in her to thirst for. If it isn't, remember, if you got the wrong person, you'll get the right one in the Millennium. You just keep on going; all wrongs will be made right there.

A New Creation
It is hard, in this day and age, to live the life of a Christian girl in this Message but it IS possible to do.
This past Saturday, Brother Daniel Mazur (sp?) spoke on "Grace" and "A New Creation" and, last night, Brother Ted Posedly (my pastor) tied the two together. He continued what he had been speaking on the Sunday before Brother Daniel and Brother Robert Fischer (sp?) came; "A New Creation Identity". I just thought I would share what the Brothers said as well as scriptures and quotes on the subject of "A New Creation".
Brother Daniel Mazur...
II Corinthians 5:17-18, 20-21
17 Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.
18 And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation;
20 Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ’s stead, be ye reconciled to God.
21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.

21 For he hath made him to be sin for us, who knew no sin; that we might be made the righteousness of God in him.
- If you want to be a new creation, you have to have a union with Christ.
- God put a part of Himself in you. That's why you believe this Message and that's why you're going back to Him; He wouldn't be complete without you.
- Life is like a puzzle, not a Lego block, because you have to follow a pattern instead of doing your own thing. The only thing that will get you out of here is if you put the "puzzle" together right.
Brother Ted Posedly...
- No one knows your true identity except the One who brought you here.
- When you know who you are, the devil is powerless.
Ephesians 2:8-10
8 For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
9 Not of works, lest any man should boast.
10 For we are his workmanship, created in Christ Jesus unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
Romans 8:35-37
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
- redemption- full and lasting position of everything you lost because of the fall.
- You must remain in Christ in order to have a new creation identity.
- As long as you try to be a new creation, you'll never be one. God has to help you.
- If we would stay with that new creation identity, we would be like Christ all the time.
- That Voice clarifies your confusion about your identity.
- If you're going by feelings, you are not walking in that new identity and the devil has already defeated you.
Hebrews 11:1
1 Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
2 For by it the elders obtained a good report.
- substance- confidence, trust, insurance
- If you have nervousness (or whatever), that's not you, that's the old identity. YOU are confident.
- There are people who believe this Message 100 percent in their mind but they can't live a word of it because they're living in that old identity.
- Faith is your memory of who you really are.
Hebrews 4:11-13
11 Let us labour therefore to enter into that rest, lest any man fall after the same example of unbelief.
12 For the word of God is quick, and powerful, and sharper than any twoedged sword, piercing even to the dividing asunder of soul and spirit, and of the joints and marrow, and is a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
13 Neither is there any creature that is not manifest in his sight: but all things are naked and opened unto the eyes of him with whom we have to do.
Brother William Branham...

Don't know whether you have them here or not. He can throw their legs like that, you know, when they're walking. I said to my brother, I said, "Isn't that a funny looking thing?"
He said, "It is."
We went up to him. He went [Brother Branham illustrates.--Ed.] Puts me in the mind of some of these people, when you really go to preaching the Gospel, they pull right back in their shell. "I belong to the Baptist. I belong to the Methodist."
Go on, if your name's not in heaven, you'll go to hell too. That's right. Only those who are written in the Lambs Book of Life, by being redeemed, born again... Jesus said, "Except a man be born again, he will not enter the Kingdom." Truly. Then you're born again, you become a new creature, a new creation in Christ. Oh, hallelujah. In other words... Don't get excited about it. "Hallelujah" means "Praise our God." And I praise Him. Amen.

E-15 Now, you can be a mentally worked up or emotionally worked up and just imagine your faith, but when your spirit bears record with His Spirit, and your life compares with God's Bible, you've got a pretty good conception it's all as at peace. That's right, but if it don't compare with that, then you better come back again. See? If you don't love Him with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, if sin doesn't just make you tremble at the thoughts of it, you'd better come back (see?) and be sure. No matter...
You might've danced in the Spirit. You might've spoke with tongues. You might've put your name on every church book in this city. You might've been baptized three times forward, backward, sprinkled. That won't have one thing to do with it, not one thing. You've got to be borned again (See?), something that takes place, a regeneration, and you become a new creation. Old things is passed away, and all things become new. You're a new look on everything. The birds sing different. Your enemies that you once couldn't stand, you love them. See? You really love them, and everything's changed. Then you know you've passed from death unto Life.

E-13 And now, if you're dealing with sin... Now, maybe you never sinned, but there might be a sin that your father did, your grandfather did. He said He'd visit the iniquity of the parents upon the third and fourth generation. And each generation gets weaker and wiser as the Bible said. But it's all started from sin. Before sin ever came into the world there were no sickness in the world. And sickness came through the fall, and the fall was sin, and sin is unbelief.
"He that believeth not is condemned already." Before you even get started you're condemned. You're born in sin, shaped in iniquity, come to the world speaking lies. No matter how much you was dedicated on the altar, how many times you were sprinkled, baptized, poured, whatever it is, you're still a sinner, that's all, until you repent and God recognizes and seals that promise with the Holy Spirit. That's right. Then you're borned again. Then you're son and daughter of God. It's a regeneration, a new creation. Then your attributes, your--your thoughts are not like they were, your life is not like it was. You become a complete surrendered vessel to God, and He speaks and uses you, and you're not your own no more. But you're bought with a price. That's the price of the precious Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ. Think of it.

97 There is so many people today who says that the Holy Spirit is not real today. While tens of thousands of them, and millions, are saying it's not so, there's that many enjoying the blessings of It. Mostly are poor people, people who's been dejected and rejected by the world, people who's been throwed out of churches because that they believed God to be God; but they have been filled with His Spirit. They are one in purpose; they're one in heart. Who are those people? Methodists, Baptists, Presbyterian, Catholic, Jehovah Witness, orthodox Jew, all together, they become one. Not one to a creed, not one to a denomination, that's the working of the devil through intellectual conceptions, but the working of the Holy Spirit, the Kingdom of God in you.
And God sets on the throne of your heart in His control room, controlling your emotions, and controlling your powers, controlling your conceptions, and making you one with Him in fellowship and in love. And God fills you with love. He fills you with power. He fills you with the Spirit. He fills you with His own Divine Nature, and He changes your carnal nature into His Nature. Then, in this, you become a new creation in Christ.

143 If you're going to depend upon your--your intellectual's conceptions and so forth, you'll never be borned of the Spirit of God.

It's a birth that makes a new generat--a new creation. The very Greek word here, as I was looking it up in the Greek Lexicon the other day, the word "birth" means "creation."

Time is Running Out
When things go wrong, as they sometimes will,
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but don't you quit.
When the road you're trudging seems all uphill,
When the funds are low and the debts are high,
And you want to smile, but you have to sigh,
When care is pressing you down a bit,
Rest, if you must, but don't you quit.
Life is queer with its twists and turns,
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow--
You may succeed with another blow.
As every one of us sometimes learns,
And many a failure turns about,
When he might have won had he stuck it out;
Don't give up though the pace seems slow--
You may succeed with another blow.
Often the goal is nearer than,
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up,
When he might have captured the victor's cup,
And he learned too late when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
It seems to a faint and faltering man,
Often the struggler has given up,
When he might have captured the victor's cup,
And he learned too late when the night slipped down,
How close he was to the golden crown.
Success is failure turned inside out--
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.
The silver tint of the clouds of doubt,
And you never can tell how close you are,
It may be near when it seems so far,
So stick to the fight when you're hardest hit--
It's when things seem worst that you must not quit.

I have been watching with a feeling of grief as girls my age, who once seemed to be grounded firmly in Christ, slowly slip off into the world. Some have been rather showy about it but others just slip out quietly. It is a horrible thing to see... I wish I knew what it was that made them turn away so I could help. My sisters, we must get serious about serving Christ. Time is WAY to short to start playing around with worldly fashions and music. I don't care how innocent it may seem...IT'S WRONG!

E-3 Now, before I'm going to finish this message this morning, the Lord willing. But here's the reason I have to drive at that, if you can't catch it spiritually...
Say, you that wrote me a letter, out there about Ezekiel 33:33, you're on the nail head, but hold your peace.
Now, as... as going... Ern Baxter told me; he said that up in Canada they were having a--a contest for this new Schwinn--Schwinn bicycle. Was going to give a contest who could ride, for I believe a hundred yards of board, fourteen or sixteen inches square, without falling off of a two foot, three foot ramp, go right down that ramp; who could ride closest to the end that would be the winner of the bicycle. Well, Ern said he knew he was going to win it. Said because he could go downtown, get groceries for his mother and never even touch the handlebars. Said just go down... You know how you ride a bicycle. Said, "They was just expert riders."
E-4 Said, "When they all got up there that day to ride," he said... they had a little old sissy boy; he seemed to be kind of a little frail like fellow, and he was the only one that rode it. He rode it right straight out to the end, got off his bicycle; and every one of them fell off before they got any piece at all. So all of them got around, the boys got around him and said, "Why did you do it? How did you do it?
He said, "Now, fellows, I'm going to tell you what--what it was." He said, "I noticed each one of you, where you made your mistake." And said, "I prospered by your mistake." Said, "When you got on your bicycle and they shoved you off," said, "I noticed you like this, trying to keep it on the board." He said, "See, when you look down like this, you get nervous." He said, "When they shoved me, I kept my eye on the end and kept steady."
E-5 There you are. See? That's it, friends; don't look down here what's going today or tomorrow, keep your eye on the end and be steady. See? If you're going to watch and, "Well, if I don't do this, if I don't do this, if I..." See, you're going to fall off sure as the world. See? Just keep your eye on the end, and at the end of every life you meet Jesus. That's right. So just keep your eye on the end and be steady. Let us pray.
Father God, we are entering now into Thy Presence, into Thy sanctuary, where the goodness of God is stored up for those... the hidden manna. I pray God, that You'll break it freely to us this morning in this little few minutes of lesson to wind up this great study on Thy servant, the great patriarch Abraham.

All that matters in this life is what you have in your heart...in your soul. It's your CHARACTER that you are taking with you...nothing else. If you have ruined everything by doing things you KNOW are wrong, you will make it harder for yourself. I'm not saying you can't be saved afterwards, but it will be hard for you to live with the scars that living a worldly life will leave you.
I love you sisters and I never want to hurt you..but please listen to me! Time is running out! Keep pressing forward for Christ and don't let the devil put anything on you. Don't turn to the left or the right, stay in the middle of the road and move forward.
"Unworthy" by Anonymous
"Unworthy!" the dark presence came and impressed.
A soul bound, held fast by the hand dark and cold.
In agony, downcast and demon oppressed.
"Unworthy!" repeats she, to hell, she was sold.
A strong pull, a voice calling, "Come out, be free!"
A magnet is drawing, the Word in her stirring.
Deep calls to the deep, "That's where I'm meant to be!"
An eagle screams, the seed is responding!
"Lord! I'm UNWORTHY! How could You not abhor?"
His voice replying, as He dries all her tears.
"My elected love, your sins are no more!
My righteousness yours, before doubt casted fear."
The Word is received, darkness gives way to light.
The Son is risen, in this life made worthy.
"Come away, My love shall be your might.
My Word born in you, your peace fulfilled in Me."
It's Been A While...

Issue 4: God's Faithfulness
Introduction by Lydia
I apologize for taking so long in getting this out to you all. Things have been rather hectic around here!
In this issue I will write about God’s faithfulness. Sometimes it feels like God isn’t there but He’s promised He’ll never leave us and that’s just what He meant. God never breaks His promises.

Compendium
Today’s compendium subject is:
God’s Faithfulness
Brother Branham says:

There's no doubt dying people setting right here tonight, will go out of here with life to live again. Praise God. Why? The same Holy Spirit that led Simeon is leads--led you here tonight. Don't be a scared to drink. Walk right up freely with a lot of boldness. We come boldly to the throne of God, for God is faithful Who has promised us. Don't be scared. Reach up and get it; it's yours. He's led you right up to the Fountain. Now, if you're thirsty, drink. Just drink abundance; just drink till you can't drink no more. Drink till you get so drunk on the salvation of God, you'll not listen to the critics, not listen to your feelings, any symptoms. You'll look to Calvary and say, "God, I want to hear the roars of Calvary . That's all I hear." Amen. There you are.
60-1211E THE.LAODICEAN.CHURCH.AGE _ JEFFERSONVILLE.IN ROJC 493-550 SUNDAY_ 28 Just--just value that, brother. I know what you're doing there at the Interstate, I done the same thing, worked a many hard day, but, brother... to raise them children. But remember, God is faithful, He rewards. Yes, indeed! "I will repay."
God bless you, Patty. Honey, I--I wouldn't know you if I seen you, I guess, but don't never leave that straight path, honey. Never let the Devil put any--anything in you, like a nice golden apple, because it'll be a lemon, see. Drop the thing and leave it like that. Keep your eyes right on Christ, right on the Cross. And keep moving on, for the hour is at hand. See?

51-1003 BELIEVEST.THOU.THIS_ NEW .YORK .NY WEDNESDAY_ E-26 And let's see back in the beginning when God was fixing to bring forth His Son, why, the first thing he appeared to was--to vindicate of His coming was Zacharias an old priest, fine character, him and his wife. And they'd been married for many years, growing old in age. They'd prayed earnestly for children. God seemed to not answer their prayer, but they're--they were serving the Lord, a devout life.Now, there's where many people make an error. They pray for things, and because God don't give it to them in a few minutes, they think they're not going to get it. See? If you ask for anything, don't waver. Believe you receive it; you shall have it. Live right; do right; and believe you're going to get it; and God’s faithful Who has promised. Amen. There you are.
56-0902 THE.HANDWRITING.ON.THE.WALL_ JEFFERSONVILLE.IN SUNDAY_ E-21 Now, one day a broker came by, and he saw a bunch of slaves working on a certain plantation, a hundred or more slaves. And they were sad, because they were away from home. Many times they'd whip them because they wouldn't work. They thought they'd never go home again, babies they'd never see, papa and mama they'd never see, their relation they'd never see. And they were very downcast as it's so easily to become, especially when you're oppressed.That's what the devil likes to work on you and oppress you. You know, that's a trick of the devil to oppress. But when the Christian knows his legal rights (Amen.), when you can quote God's Word, "I'll never leave thee nor forsake thee," that takes all the oppression away. And the clouds begin to clear back. But if you just know that God has promised and God’s faithful, He can keep His promise or He'd never promised it.

The Bible says:
Deuteronomy 7:9
Know therefore that the LORD thy God, he is God, the faithful God, which keepeth covenant and mercy with them that love him and keep his commandments to a thousand generations;
Psalm 105:8
He hath remembered his covenant for ever, the word which he commanded to a thousand generations.
Hebrews 10:23
Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;)
Psalm 89:34
My covenant will I not break, nor alter the thing that is gone out of my lips.
Numbers
God is not a man, that he should lie; neither the son of man, that he should repent: hath he said, and shall he not do it? or hath he spoken, and shall he not make it good?
Isaiah 54:10-15
For the mountains shall depart, and the hills be removed; but my kindness shall not depart from thee, neither shall the covenant of my peace be removed, saith the LORD that hath mercy on thee.
11 O thou afflicted, tossed with tempest, and not comforted, behold, I will lay thy stones with fair colours, and lay thy foundations with sapphires.
12 And I will make thy windows of agates, and thy gates of carbuncles, and all thy borders of pleasant stones.
13 And all thy children shall be taught of the LORD; and great shall be the peace of thy children.
14 In righteousness shalt thou be established: thou shalt be far from oppression; for thou shalt not fear: and from terror; for it shall not come near thee.
15 Behold, they shall surely gather together, but not by me: whosoever shall gather together against thee shall fall for thy sake.

There was ten thousands times ten thousands of Angels marching with the Queen of Sheba's band as it went on. There wasn't an arrow could fly by night, or the terror by night, or the arrow by day that could ever touch her. She was bound to find Jehovah. She was seeking for Him with a true heart.

Book Review
Have you read any books that are worth reading and would like to recommend them? Well, this section is for that purpose! Here is what we already have:
Do Hard Things by Alex and Brett Harris
When I was 16 I would look at a book like this, sigh and say, "This looks like a boring book. I don't like reading books like this." I wish I had read this book then! It's so good!
Do Hard Things is a book that I highly recommend! It's a book to encourage teenagers to rise above this world's low expectations of us. It's a book that is full of good insight on doing hard things that will help you plan for the future. There's stories of rebelutionaries who are doing and have done hard things and are happy they are and have. I like this book because it's as if you are really talking to the authors and listening to them speak because they use wording that is easy to understand. This book is good for every teenager to read! It's so full of good, wholesome ideas! It also talks about the decay of this world's teens and of the expectations this world has of them. According to the world, teenagers are supposed to goof off and party like crazy but, really, they should be preparing for their future and working to make this world a better place to grow in.
Do Hard Things is an extremely good book and I hope every teenager who reads this post reads it! It will change your whole outlook on life and help you feel like you can do something worthwhile!

Poetry
If Jesus Walked In Your Door Today
If Jesus walked in your door today,
Would you be doing wrong or good?
Would you be watching TV
When you could be listening to a tape?
If Jesus walked in your door today,
Would you be doing wrong or good?
Would you be reading a bad book
Or would you be studying the bible or a message book?
If Jesus walked in your door today,
Would you be doing wrong or good?
Would you be gossiping on the phone
Or would you be praying?
If Jesus walked in your door today,
Would you be doing wrong or good?
Would you be playing video games
Or would you be on cub corner?
If Jesus walked in your door today
It could happen any day.
If I were you, I'd watch what you do
For Jesus is coming soon to take his Bride away.
“Let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water. Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that promised;) And let us consider one another to provoke unto love and to good works:”
Hebrews 10:22-24

Encouragement for the Journey by Angela Dawn
For all of you who have just left camp, or who may not have.
Here is a poem I dedicate to you all. I hope it is a blessing and
encouragement to you. God bless you and keep pressing on.
Friends near and far,
Here and there, and wherever you are.
I wish to encourage you to continue the fight,
To press through the battles in this trying time.
Don't give up now, the Promise Land is close.
And though the world seems dark and cold,
Remember God gives us the liberty to be bold.
Hold your head up, don't give up now.
And though after blessed isolation at camp,
This world seems harder to stand against.
Don't believe Satan's lie, you have been given strength.
God has equipped you for this fight.
For each trial that you'll face.
So stand on YOUR promises,
That God has given you.
He will help you in the fight
And you'll overcome by His grace.
If the world laughs at you,
And thinks You've lost your mind.
Just smile at them and say,
"I have. And replaced it with Christ's."
This battles is not ours.
Why should we fight it alone?
We are the saints of God.
His chosen ones!
Oh, stay in Christ!
Encourage yourself in the Word.
He has given us the instructions,
And the armor.
We know the final ending.
We have been shown it from the beggininng
Satan has no power, but what God allows.
He is a fireless dragon,
And a mooing cow.
He has no power of his own.
For he is a toothless lion roaring his pathetic meow.
So stand strong.
God hasn't left you alone.
Though without the camp grounds we are,
God is still by our sides.
He has an angel with us,
In our dark and lonely nights.
Don't listen to Satan!
Our trials don't prove we left camp empty.
They show that WE CAN BE GOD'S VICTORY!
Oh, stand strong brother, sister
This race is almost through.
Hold on to Christ and He will be with You.
