94-212 084 Now, I have to get another Scripture here to show you. Jesus talked about the people that, He said, "Some come in at one hour, and another hour, and there was eleventh-hour people, the eleventh-hour people." Now, you who are spiritual, read between the lines, 'cause I got to jump here and hurry. Now, look. "Come in, the eleventh-hour people." And right... Now, the first come in and received a penny, and the next come in and received a penny, and the eleventh-hour people got the same penny that they did at the first. Is that right? The eleventh hour...
Now, watch, the Jew is the milepost we're following him now. Now, when the First World War come, it took every Jew; they scattered to all the nations. Like the first Scripture that today was asked, how He would scattered them among all nations; there they all are. And here come the winds coming into Jerusalem, everywhere, a world war.
94-214 085 And He said, "Hold. Stop it, until we have seal the servants of our God." Other words, "We're ganging them in from all the nations, everywhere, bringing them in, 'cause we got to get them right in here to seal that hundred and forty-four thousand. Hold it."
And the World War I stopped on
the eleventh month of the year, the eleventh day in the month, the eleventh
hour in the day, that the eleventh-hour
people could come in, the last call for the Jew. And he's
going to receive the same baptism of the Holy Ghost that they got back at the
beginning back yonder at Pentecost, be baptized the same way, and everything,
the eleventh-hour people moving in.
He said, "Hold it now, until we have sealed."
"How long You going to hold it?"
"Until we have sealed the servants of our God." Now, we--we're sealing the Gentiles; they've been sealed away, thousands times thousands through these persecutions and tribulations; they're sealed away. But wait a minute, just a minute. Don't let the per... Don't let the time come till we seal these servants." And he sealed a hundred and forty-four thousand. Then the winds was let loose again.
274 103 Jesus said, "A man went out, and he worked. And another man went out in another hour, and he worked. Another man went out and worked. And one man went out at the eleventh hour. And when he stopped at the eleventh hour, he give every one of them the same portion, the eleventh hour. They wondered why. Why did he, got the eleventh hour, everyone coming in?
Martin Luther's that worked... walked under Luther's dispensation, died in grace...?... others, shouting Methodists, that died under Wesley's age, died in grace. We're living in another age, not back there, here! Mother used to go in an ox cart, and we go in a model V-8 Ford, almost jet propelled. That's right. We're living in a different age altogether. And we're living in a different dispensation. We're living in the day of the restoration of the powers of God, and Christ said would be the powers yonder like they did in the beginning. We're living in another age. Don't look back there to Wesley, Methodists, and all those, Baptists, and Presbyterians. Look here to Jesus Christ, the Author and Finisher of the faith of the Bible. Hallelujah.
276 104 Now, watch Him, said, "Hold it," until what? The eleventh-hour people could come in, the last calling of the Gentiles. Mother worked there; dad and them worked here; grandmother worked back there. This is our age, the eleventh hour. That World War stopped on the eleventh month in the year, the eleventh day of the month, the eleventh hour in the day, the eleventh minute in the hour, that the eleventh-hour people might come in. What?... Receive the same baptism of the Holy Ghost that they did back there in the beginning, to bring back the power and the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ, same signs and wonders.
What is it? The wars are struggling here, struggling there, struggling here, struggling there, trying to... The atomic bombs and everything else are being built up, but they can't do it. They can't do it until the Jews gets a visitation of the baptism of the Holy Ghost. The Angel said, "Hold it, till we seal the servants," not the Bride. The Gentiles never was a servant; we are sons and daughters. That's the servants, the Jews, Abraham was God's servant. Hallelujah!
E-52 052 Look, God over-shooting now, saying, "Hold
these wars here; don't let total destruction, total annihilation come until we
have sealed a hundred and forty-four thousand Jews." Then at that
time... Oh, watch what taken place. All the world was going to war; and
all of a sudden, it stopped. And I've read the decline of the World War One. No
man knows today why it stopped; no man give any orders for it to stop. But
it was stopped on November the eleventh (That right?), the eleventh month in
the year, the eleventh hour in the day, the eleventh minute after eleven.
What was it? That the
eleventh hour people could come in. He said, "Some come in at
one received the penny," and on down. And the eleventh hour people got the
same kind of a penny that they got at the beginning--eleventh hour people.
And along about that time, I want you to notice, John recognized every Jew; he knowed their military rank; he knowed their names by tribe. John being a Jew himself, he said, "All these are children of Israel." After this the 9th verse, "I looked and behold a great multitude, which no man could number." No time when they were marked.
E-43 043 And now, while we pray, I want you to accept Him, and believe, and stand for Him now, and He will stand for you at that day. At the end of the service, after the healing service we'll ask you to come forward maybe.
Now, our heavenly Father, faith cometh by hearing, hearing of the Word. And now, many are here tonight who's raised up their hands, dozens that they want to make a stand tonight. They're tired of this old, tramping around through the world, and they make a stand tonight for the Lord Jesus.
And we pray, God, that You'll give them grace and courage. May you lighten their burden and give them of Thy Divine love; and let them know that in the perplexed and distressed time, when all the Bible has just practically been fulfilled, waiting for the coming of the Lord... May they now at this eleventh hour give their complete being over to Thee, that Thou will bless them and make them witnesses of You. And in that great day, may You stand for them.
217-42 022 And they wonder how the world war,
first World War... Look, it stopped on November the eleventh, at the eleven o'clock
of the day: the eleventh month, the eleventh day, and the eleventh hour. And immediately
after that, the water baptism in Jesus' Name was revealed and the baptism of
the Holy Ghost to the church, exactly, immediately after that.
And if you take it on over in Revelations, how we tied it together, and between the Philadelphian age and the Laodicean... And the Methodists had the Philadelphian age, the brotherly love. And the last age, church age, was the Laodicean age, which is lukewarm age. And He said in there, "I have set a door (open door) before you," an open door. And if you'll refer those Scriptures back, it'll tie the entire message right into one place there to show you it exactly...
CONFERENCE SHREVEPORT LA 60-1125
E-9 009 Many of you heard a little prophecy given not long ago in this church by a little Baptist woman. It came to pass last night. So I'm sure the church knows what we're speaking of. This church tonight stands on Mount Transfiguration experience. It is so.
Let us turn to Isaiah the 1st chapter and read from the 17th and the 18th verse, maybe the 16th also, as we read:
Wash you, make you clean; put away the evil of your doings from before mine eyes; cease to do evil;
Learn to do well; seek judgment, relieve the oppressed, judge the fatherless, plead for the widows.
Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be white as wool.
Father, bless Thy holy Word. We wait, Lord, upon the Holy Spirit to reveal these things to us. Speak to ever heart as we have need, Lord. You are pleading through many gifts and through Thy Word, pleading in the highways and byways, trying to compel these eleventh hour people to make ready Your coming. Grant it, Lord, and help me now and speak. We ask in Jesus' Name. Amen.
96 052 Now, on these, the four... You notice, it stopped on--on November the eleventh, at eleven o'clock in the day; the eleventh month in the year, the eleventh day in the month, and the eleventh hour in the day. You remember then what Jesus said about that? "One went into the vineyard to work at one time; one got a penny, and the next one went," them was eleventh-hour people. Was that right? There they are, the eleventh-hour people that's been held back. Now, it's getting time for them to come in, and they are gathering yonder those Jews for a nation. They were scattered all over the world, way down in Iran and different places where they'd never even knowed that Jesus was on the earth, never knowed nothing about a New Testament or anything.
E-51 051 Notice, hardened their hearts... Now, when was there ever a complete global strife after that time? Was the First World War. All of the armies, the nations, were gathering into one... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] They was writing on the decline of the First World War. Nobody knows today whoever made a issue of peace. Kaiser Wilhelm said he didn't do it. No general said he didn't do it. But notice, how strange it was. It was on November the 11th at eleven o'clock in the day. The eleventh day of the month, the eleventh month in the year, the eleventh hour of the day, and eleven minutes till eleven. What was it? Hold, stop mysteriously... What did it? God's issue went forth to hold it. "Hold the four winds." "Winds" means "war and strife"; we know. Until we have got Israel back in Palestine again, "Hold the four winds," and it stopped right there on the eleventh hour because...
Remember Jesus speaking of the eleventh hour, people? And the one that come in on the eleventh hour, what did He say? Oh, don't be dumb; be spiritual. Look, how did He say? The eleventh hour people got the same wage the one did that come in the first hour. Then the baptism of the Holy Ghost has to go right back and seal the Jew, like the first one was sealed, that eleventh hour people. "Hold the four winds; don't let the world be destroyed until we seal the servants of our God in their forehead."
235 098 Just think, the great Holy Spirit coming, identifying Jesus Christ alive after two thousand years. See, the very nature of Him doing the same thing as He promised it would be done. That's right.
I'm so grateful for you, friends. You're that eleventh-hour people standing here, just getting in. I'm so glad you come. Each one of you remember, it was God who told you to come. Humanly, you wouldn't have done it. But God told you to do it.
37 020 The time of the Gentiles has been in this Pentecostal feast. The trumpets, under--all of them was sounded under the Sixth Seal. And we picked it up last Sunday under the Feast of the Trumpets, if you all want to get it. What was it to do? To rush the Jews from all parts of the world back into their homeland. It must be there. And the opening of the Seals under the Sixth Seal and under... The seven trumpets sounded in the--in the Sixth Seal.
Now, the seventh angel's Message is to open the mystery of the Seals, calling the eleventh hour Gentile workers to receive the same pay that the first hour workers got. See? Now, Jesus taught it. He said there was some peoples went into the harvest. They were hired, and when they did--of a early morning--they received a--a--a time, a penny for the day. And then at noontime someone else come in and went to work. And then at the eleventh hour, that's the last hour of the day, that someone come in and received the same kind of pay that they did at the first hour of the day, last hour.
It's so perfectly, how the first hour messengers with the Word, with the Gospel, with the Truth, they came in at the day of Pentecost. Then there was a dark age that blocked them out. Then at the middle of the day, Luther, and Wesley, and them came in. And then there is to be an evening time Message, and to receive the same thing that they did at the beginning. The evening time Message is to restore back again, to bring back that same thing again.
