JESUS OF THE NEW TESTAMENT IS THE

JEHOVAH OF THE OLD TESTAMENT

 

ATTITUDE AND WHO IS GOD?       CLEVELAND OH  50-0815

            E-9   Waiting... Sacrificial Lamb's been killed. We take His body under the Blood, safe, and O God, waiting for the midnight hour to come when the "march out" is called. We're going out some of these nights to the promised land, girded, shod with the Gospel of peace, the full armor of--on the whole armor of the Gospel, going forward. Help us, dear God, to buckle up tight tonight, examine the post and the lintel to see if the Blood's there, then walk forward to challenge every enemy, knowing that our great Chief Captain, the One that met Joshua after crossing the river, said, "I'm the Captain of the Host of the Lord..." O God, Joshua trembled. He knew that You were leading.

And we know tonight, the Morning Star is over us. Banners are gleaming, the colors streaming. And we're bound to win if we trust in Him Who will not fail us.

Grant it tonight, Lord, that many things may be done. Send Your Spirit. Give people faith to... Sometimes it startles them, Father. They can't realize the--the Presence, this great thing, the Jehovah of the Old Testament, Jesus of the New, the Holy Spirit of this day, standing here tonight to make good any promise that He made. Bless us, Lord.

Then send Your gifts, which is secondarily to all this, that It might work to bring the people to edify the Church, to bring us to realization of Your Presence. For we ask it in the Name of Thy Son, Jesus. Amen.

 

EARLY SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCES       HAMMOND IN  52-0713A

E 33  Anyhow, Brother Bosworth got up there and said, "I have (I forget how many) different Scriptures written here, Mr. Best, of Christ's present attitude in the New Testament towards the sick and afflicted. If you can take the Testament, or the Bible anywhere, and disprove anyone of them, I will walk off the platform like a gentleman." He was afraid to take the paper up. Brother Bosworth was astonished at him.

He said, "Then I will ask you one question. You answer me yes or no, it'll settle the thing forever."

"All right."

He said, "Was the redemptive Names of Jehovah applied to Jesus, yes, or no?" That settled it. If He's Jehovah-jireh, He's also Jehovah-rapha. All...?... If He was God's provided sacrifice, if He isn't Jehovah-jireh, then He is not the Saviour, He isn't the provided Sacrifice. That settled it all together.

 

EARLY SPIRITUAL EXPERIENCES       HAMMOND IN  52-0713A

            E-63   You love Him? What am I trying to say now? Jesus is here with us. I've kept you longer than I should, yes, way longer. I'm so sorry. Forgive me, just enthused. But that you might understand that the same God... How many believes that the Pillar of Fire, the Pillar of Fire that led the children of Israel was the Angel of the Covenant? Let's see your hand. That was our Lord Jesus. Is that right? It was Christ, the Anointed.

Well, look. He appeared to Moses, but it wasn't because He was with Moses. He's with the whole church. Is that right? Could it be possible that this same Pillar of Fire that we see taken here now, could that be the Angel of the Covenant? Could it be our Lord Jesus Christ? Could the Angel of the Lord Who appeared to Paul out there, Who told Peter on the house top, all these things, like He did in the days of Agabus, and so forth? Isn't that the very analysis, the very symptoms, the very same thing that He did in the days, in the New Testament? Then look, Christians, Holy Ghost filled people look this way. Then the sign of the Old Testament, Jehovah God, the Pillar of Fire, is with us. And the same God that was with the apostles, our Lord Jesus Christ, is with us undisputably through science, through the world, through the Christians, through the church, through everything is perfectly a vindicated. It's the same today.

The both New and Old Testaments... God of the Old Testament was Jesus of the New, and the Holy Spirit of today. You know that. Don't you believe that? To blaspheme the Holy Ghost today, is just the same penalty, or worst, than blaspheming Jesus Christ, or God the Father. Don't you believe that?

 

PILLAR OF FIRE       JONESBORO AR  53-0509

             E-11  Now, I believe that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. And I believe that in the beginning God made man in His own image, and God is a Spirit. And God made man spirit-man. Then He made him in the dust of the earth. Now, I believe that man in the beginning, well, led the animals of the earth like the Holy Spirit ought to be leaving the--leading the Church today.

There was no man to till the soul, so then He put him in five senses. Them five senses was not to contact God. That was see, taste, feel, smell, and hear. They were to contact his earthly home. But by his spirit he contacts God.

Man lost his origin and he... back there, and fell from grace. And when he did, then God came down and was made in the image of man, to redeem man back to God. And God was in Christ reconciling the world to Himself. And the God of the Old Testament, Jesus Christ of the New, and the Holy Spirit of this day is the same Jehovah God living down through the age. See?

 

JEHOVAH JIREH       KARLSRUHE GERMANY  55-0817

            E-10  Now, God has to keep His Word. His very law would express that of Him. If you take hydrogen (one--one--one part of hydrogen, it's still water, you see), and two parts of oxygen, now if that goes together, the law of chemistry and science will make water every time. It has to. If it made it in the beginning, it has to make it now.

And the same thing by God. If--if God made a law, spoke His Word, He's got to keep It. In the Old Testament, in the New Testament, forever He has to keep His Word. If He was Jehovah-jireh there, He was Jehovah-jireh in Genesis, He was with the prophets, He was with the law, He was in Jesus, He was in the early church, He has to be now. And when people would believe Him in Genesis in the law, in Christ, in the church, His law compels Him to do the same thing that He did in the beginning. If it isn't, He did wrong in the first place. See? He has to do the same to be God.

As I have said to you, what good does it do us to have a--a--a God of history if He isn't the same God today. See? It would do us no good.

It's just like in our country; our first President was George Washington. Well, that's history. It does no good today. We have to have another President. See? He was all right in his day. But just Washington alone, he--he's gone. He won't do today. See what I mean?

 

GOD HATH A PROVIDED WAY       JEFF IN  56-0108

            E-27   In the Old Testament He was Jehovah-jireh, the Lord's provided Sacrifice. He was Jehovah-rapha, the Lord that healeth thee. In the Old Testament in His compound names He was the Healer of Jehovah-rapha. In the New Testament He's Jesus Christ the same yesterday, today, and forever, the preparation.

We could take it from both the Old and New Testament, pat them together. That's the reason, mostly, I got to the Old Testament to pick out a text, because I bring it over to the New Testament, and pull it together, and show you, it's the same Breasted God. The same One that escaped Daniel from death by sending an Angel is the same God that's in here this morning. Is the same God that gave blind Bartimaeus his sight, that healed that little German girl. He never fails. He's God Jehovah. He can't. He makes a preparation. And He's provided a way for everyone of us. He's provided an escape.

And He told Abraham, "I am the Breasted One. Now, Abraham, the only thing you have to do is just keep nursing, nursing."

 

JEHOVAH JIREH       CHARLOTTE NC  56-0429

            E-37   You've got about twenty eight hundred years of experiences to look back through others and see what He's done. And if the Old Testament provided that, how much better does the new covenant, a better thing. That we without them would not be made perfect... or them without us, rather, would not be made perfect. God has provided. I trust that you will believe it with all your heart as we pray.

Now, Father, we thank Thee for being Jehovah-jireh, the Lord's provided Sacrifice. Now, I ask You today, Lord Jesus, that You'll give grace abundantly to all the people that are here. And let them know that You provided a resurrection in form there for Isaac, who had come to end of his road. But You provided a way for him.

And You provided a way of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus, and provided a Holy Ghost knowing that the time would come when people would try to explain away all the supernatural of Your Word. But You provided the Holy Ghost to carry on Your work, doing the same thing that You did when You were here in a corporeal body.

And I pray today that You'll bless exceedingly, and heal the sick, and save the lost. Grant it, Lord, for we ask it through Christ's Name.

 

AS THE EAGLE STIRS HER NEST       BEAUMONT TX  61-0122

            E-72   Look at the God of Moses, Who opened up the Red Sea, took the Hebrew children in the fiery furnace, Daniel out of the lion's den, Lazarus out of the grave. "I have power..." God raised Him up; that's true. But He said, "I have power to lay My life down. I have power to take it up again." Amen. How great Thou art. "Trust Me; I am the same yesterday, today, and forever."

Them big wings... Find out that Jesus of the New Testament is Jehovah of the Old. Them big wings, fanning up and down that rushing mighty wind, feeding in that, oh, how I like to lay in them breezes. How great Thou art, how great Thou art. Stirring up the nest (yes, sir), getting it ready...

 

MESSAGE OF GRACE       JEFF IN  61-0827

            24   014   And I looked again, and there it was, growing taller and taller, three rainbows. I took off my hat. I set down my gun. I started walking towards it with my hands up. Something just seemed to tell me, "This is close enough." I was going to set down and take off my boots that I had on, to see if I could walk a little closer. But I got within a few yards of it, and I seen the color of it, misting like a fog moving around. I stood still for a few moments. It was coming right out of the top of the little mountain. And I watched, as the three (one to the right, one to the left, and one in the center) running down into one bowl like... Ever what it was, was alive. It was moving and making Its motions. And I stood there just as it was graying dawn.

I turned and looked again, and I screamed out, "O God, what would You have Your servant know?"

Just then the Spirit of the Lord came in and said, "Jesus of the New Testament is Jehovah of the Old, He only changed His mask from Spirit to man." That was confirming, of course, my message of Him, letting me know, assured that these thirty-one years hasn't been in vain.

 

LET YOUR LIGHT SO SHINE BEFORE MEN       JEFFIN  61-0903

            E-11   Said, "Jesus of the New Testament is Jehovah of the Old. He's just changed His veil." Well, I set studying that; I find out that same word where He changed His countenance in the Greek did mean changing His mask, not exactly His veil but His mask. It come to the place He was transformed. See? That means He changed His way. He was God-Jehovah. And God-Jehovah changed Himself from a Spirit and became a Man. He's the same Jehovah God. Which that was the Father, and this is the Son, being the same Person.

And how... Then He gave me something to speak. If the Lord's willing, I aim to be at that same tree in the morning, about daylight.

And I'm... I hope He appears to me again. I--I ought--trust that He will, so that I'll can know what to do. I got a burden on my heart for the people. As I see the hour approaching and know that people are not ready, and a lot of my loved ones, I don't know what to do or say. And I'm going up to see what He will tell me.

 

TRUE SIGN THAT'S OVERLOOKED       JEFF IN  61-1112

            262   137   Let's pray. Jesus of Nazareth, as that great Voice spoke yonder that day a few weeks ago standing by the side as I was crossing over that log around the tree, and that Spirit that came down through them treetops and said, "Jesus of the New Testament is Jehovah of the Old"... O God, on this Rock I stand, all other grounds is sinking sand, all other grounds is sinking sand.

For some thirty years, Lord, I've cried out through this valley here. That Message, I haven't moved one inch from it, from where I started, just the same Message, the same thing, calling people back, not to sensation, but to a experience of meeting God and being borned of His Spirit. Oh, what will be left but a judgment. Them whose rejecting that Message, Lord, there's nothing left.

 

WE WOULD SEE JESUS       GRASS VALLEY CA   62-0704

            86   037   Same yesterday, now here was, we find the Hebrew writer Paul, saying, "Jesus Christ the same yesterday," speaking to the Hebrews. And we all know that Jehovah of the Old Testament was Jesus of the New, and it's the Holy Spirit of today. It's just the same God just manifested in three different offices. And so, the same God... And all that God was, He poured into Christ, all Christ was He poured into the Church. So, see, you can find quickly what He is, "The same yesterday, today, and forever."

 

ABSOLUTE A       HOUSTON TX  63-0304

            E-11   But one day on the road down to Damascus a Light, Pillar of Fire, came down from heaven. And Paul, being a Jew, was acquainted that this Light, Pillar of Fire, had been the thing that had--the God that had led his people out of Egypt. They had followed this Pillar of Fire. So being a Jew, he said to Him quickly, "Lord, Who art Thou?" He knew Him as Lord, but "Who art Thou?"

And the voice came back from the Pillar of Fire, "I am Jesus, and it's hard for you to kick against the pricks." From that time on, Paul knew that the Jehovah of the Old Testament was Jesus of the New. And he had something that he could hold to, and that's how he could write that great book of Hebrews.

 

VOICE OF THE SIGN       TULARE CA     64-0214

            129   060   Paul, he had a sign. Let's watch him. Do you believe Paul was a prophet? He certainly was. Now, notice. Paul came on the scene and saw a sign. What kind of a sign did he see? A Pillar of Fire on his road to Damascus, being a Jew. Jesus had been died, crucified, rose, ascended into heaven. And Paul was on his road down to Damascus, when a great Light struck him down. And he cried, "Lord, Who are You?"

He said, "I'm Jesus." And he was told that he was called to be a chosen vessel, a chosen vessel.

Now, notice. What did Paul have the rest of them didn't have? He had the abundance of the revelation of the Word of God, 'cause it was Paul who recognized that Jesus of the New Testament was Jehovah of the Old. Hallelujah. I could say something here. He had the revelation of it. He wrote it and revealed it, because God permitted it to be added to the Bible. And the Word comes only by the Bible, by the prophets. And so, then God revealed to Paul, and he wrote the letters inspired, and God put them in the Bible. Oh, my. Revealed that He is Christ of the Old Testament because he met Him.

 

VOICE OF THE SIGN       BEAUMONT TX  64-0313

             E-40  God never did deal with a group nowhere in the Scriptures. He deals with one individual, because every man is different from the other, every man. Our thumbs are different; our noses are different; our actions are different. He gets one man till He can get him perfectly in harmony, till he can become that Word.

That's the reason Paul, he said, "Except I get exalted above the abundance of the revelation, there was given to me a messenger of Satan." See, Matthew wrote, Luke wrote, Mark wrote, all them. But they just followed Jesus and wrote what He said. But Paul had the revelation of Who He was. See? That's the thing. You see, his revelation was so great He let him write the Bible, like Moses of the Old Testament. That great man Paul, that revelation he had... He knew that Jesus of the New Testament was Jehovah of the Old. He had the revelation of it, and could place it to the Hebrews, to the--and also the--to--to the Romans, and to the Ephesians, and--and all. He--he wrote these letters.

 

INVESTMENTS THE       BEAUMONT TX  64-0314

            E-45   Now to prove that to you, he was a Hebrew, and he would have never worshipped anything, or called anything "Lord," 'less he knowed it was Lord. And he knew, as a teacher, under Gamaliel, that the angel of the Lord, which was the Logos that went out of God, which was Christ, that led them through the wilderness was in the form of a Light--a Pillar of Fire. And when It struck him down and he looked up and seen it there, he said, "Lord." Now, he'd have never called nothing but that "Lord."

But being a Hebrew, he knowed that that was Jehovah. That's the reason he had the revelation, could say that Jesus of the New Testament was Jehovah of the Old. That was his revelation, 'cause he'd seen Jehovah. And he said, "Lord, Who are You?"

He said, "I'm Jesus. And it's hard for you to kick against the pricks." And he took out a policy.

Compare the two men together, one rich young Hebrew that wanted to hold to the traditions, another one that was convinced. One of them seen Him as a man--that God was made flesh in order to die, to take away the sin. The blood of lambs and things, the life was in there couldn't come on the believer because it's a lamb's life. It has no soul in it: animal life. But this was God, Himself.

 

UNVEILING OF GOD       JEFF IN   64-0614M

            49   025   Notice, Jehovah of the Old Testament is Jesus of the New Testament. See? He's the same God, just changing His form.

Now, someone said the other day, a--a--a Baptist minister out in Tucson, "How can you say that--that Jesus and God would be the same Person?"

I said, "Well, it--it's very easy if you just let your own thinking get away and think the Bible terms of it. They are the self same Being. God is a Spirit; Jesus is the body that He was veiled in." See? I said, "Like in my home, to my wife I am her husband. And I have a young daughter, Rebekah; I am her father. And I have a grandson, and his name is Paul; I am his grandfather. I am husband, father, and grandfather. And my wife has no claims on me as father or grandfather, she has claims on me alone as husband. And my daughter has no claims on me as husband or grandfather; she is my child. (See?) But yet all these three persons is the same person. (See?) That's God: Father, Son, and Holy Ghost is just the dispensation claim. God is same, the same God. God changed Himself, changes His--His form."

 

MIGHTY GOD UNVEILED       PHIL PA     64-0629

            6-3   016   And we find that Jehovah of the Old Testament was just Jesus of the New Testament. And--and Dr. Scofield here, we find that his word changing from form, we find the word "en morphe" in Greek, which means "the unseen was made visible." Something that cannot... We know it's there. It could be--cannot be seen, but yet, we know that it's there. And when He changed His form of the en morphe, which means that He changed from supernatural to natural... And He just changed His mask.

And otherwise, it's like a drama; He was acting. In--in the Greek when they would change their mask, maybe one play--one player might've acted in several different parts. And my daughter (present here)... They just had at the high school, a--a drama. And they... One boy, that I knowed, played about four parts, but he would go behind the stage and change his--his mask in order to come out to impersonate another character.

 

MASTERPIECE THE       JEFF IN   64-0705

  81 052 God, down through the age, hewing away by the patriarchs, and made His platform, and brought them up from the different things that He'd lay this foundation upon. Upon this He begin to build His Word (the prophets), and then finally come out to the perfect Prophet, the perfect Foundation, the perfect vision God had.

And now, in order for this to speak (He is the Word.)--and for the Word to speak He must come into the Image. And then for the image to speak, it's got to be smitten. He comes into the Image. And then in order to speak, the perfect Redeemer... All the types of the Old Testament was met in Him. 

As I said the other day, Jehovah of the Old Testament is Jesus of the New. Yes!

 

GOING BEYOND THE CAMP       JEFF IN  64-0719E

            122   068   Jesus of the New Testament was Jehovah of the Old. Exactly right. I believe (as I was telling you here now, sometime ago or somewhere in a meeting; it might not have been here) "Jehovah of the Old Testament is Jesus of the New." Do you remember the--the--the--when I was going squirrel hunting that morning. And there it was, them three big stems run into one out there, right on the mountain, me standing there looking at it. And I drew up close and took off my hat, laid down my rifle. Got up there, and a voice shook the woods, said, "Jesus of the New Testament is Jehovah of the Old. Remain faithful." So... Right below there is where the squirrels appeared then, come into existence when there was none there. See? That's truth. See? It's truth. So God knows, before Who I stand, it's the truth...?... That's right. It's the truth.

Right down in Kentucky... And there's people setting right here tonight was present when it happened again, the same thing. Yes, we know that it's the truth. Jesus of the Old Testament...

 

GOING BEYOND THE CAMP       JEFF IN    64-0719E

            124   069   Like when the Chinese people first come over here, they couldn't read nor write our language. But they were great laundrymen. And so they would... You go down to the Chinese laundry. He just got him some clear old white tags. He couldn't read one thing, and he knowed you couldn't read it if he wrote it. So when you come, he just took this little white piece of paper, something on this order, say, right here--and he tore it a certain way like that. Now, he give you one piece of paper, and he kept the other piece of paper. And then when you come back for your laundry, he said, "Let me see your piece of paper." And he got them; if it matched, that was it. You got your dirty clothes back clean.

And Jesus matched every prophecy, every design of, "Jehovah of the Old Testament is Jesus of the New." He matched everything. Let me say this with godly fear and respects, but love, but sincerity, and knowing where I'm standing, the message of this hour has matched everything the Bible spoke of for this hour. Now, if you got some dirty clothes, turn them in. Are you washed in the Blood of the Lamb?

 

IDENTIFIED MASTERPIECE OF GOD       YUMA AZ  64-1205

            E-56    But you see, He didn't come to reflect them organizations of that day. He didn't come to reflect sectarian religion. He came to reflect the Father, and the Father was the Word. Amen. Now I feel real religious. He came to reflect the Father's Word. God said He would be there, and there He was, the perfect masterpiece of God's great handiwork. Oh, my.

He was the perfect reflection of Him. He will--reflected everything that the--that God had spoke of. He reflected what Adam said about Him; He reflected about all the prophets said, about all the patriarchs said. Everything that He said, He was the fulfillment of the Word. All types was fulfilled in Him. He became Jehovah of the New Testament. He was the Old Testament Jehovah. The Word, then, which was in the Pillar of Fire, was made manifest and dwelt among us. Jehovah of the Old Testament became Jesus of the New Testament. He was a perfect reflection of God.

Oh, if the church today could just reflect that first church, when the Holy Ghost fell on the day of Pentecost. If the Christians today could reflect. We are a hybrid bunch to what they were.

 

THINKING MAN'S FILTER       JEFF IN  65-0822E

            27   013   Well, it all happened up where the Angels of the Lord appeared to me one morning, and them squirrels was spoke into existence. All of you remembers when it taken place. And also just at the top the hill where I was standing before--just before preaching the Seven Church Ages, going hunting one morning before daylight, there stood... I thought the sun was coming up, about four o'clock in the morning. Unusual, I seen that Light, and I turned around, and there stood the Seven Golden Candlesticks, standing up there on top the hill, with like a rainbow was coming up through the pipes and feeding out.

Immediately after that, the Lord Jesus appeared to us, and right then I heard a Voice that said, "The Jehovah of the Old Testament is Jesus of the New." And there He was after while revealed after those Seven Golden Candlesticks. Then notice that. How many remembers that text? I wrote it on the back of a--of a box of--of cartridges I had in my pocket, "Jehovah of the Old Testament is Jesus of the New." God in heaven knows that that was true.

 

26-3 REVELATION OF JESUS CHRIST  -  CHURCH AGE BOOK CPT 1

Now that is the revelation: Jesus Christ is God. The Jehovah of the Old Testament is the Jesus of the New. No matter how hard you try, you can't prove there are THREE Gods. But it also takes a revelation by the Holy Spirit to make you understand the truth that He is One. It takes a revelation to see that the Jehovah of the Old Testament is the Jesus of the New. Satan crept into the church and blinded the people to this truth. And when they were blinded to it, it wasn't long until the Church of Rome stopped baptizing in the Name of the Lord Jesus Christ.

 

332-3 LAODICEAN CHURCH AGE  -  CHURCH AGE BOOK CPT.9

I want you to watch this carefully now and see something really sweet and beautiful. I said this is His end-time revelation of Himself. When the day of grace closes, then the millennium comes very shortly thereafter, doesn't it? Well, read with me Isaiah 65:16-19. "That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth; and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of truth; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from Mine eyes. For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered nor come into mind. But be ye glad and rejoice forever in that which I create: for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. And I will rejoice in Jerusalem and joy in My people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her, nor the voice of crying." This is about New Jerusalem. This is the millennium. But as we go into the millennium, hear what He says about being a certain kind of God, Verse 16, "That he who blesseth himself in the earth shall bless himself in the God of truth." Yes, that is true, but the real translation is not "God of truth". It is "God of the AMEN". So we read it, "shall bless himself in the God of the AMEN, and he that sweareth in the earth shall swear by the God of the AMEN; because the former troubles are forgotten, and because they are hid from My eyes. For, behold, I create new heavens and a new earth: and the former shall not be remembered, nor come into mind. But be ye glad and rejoice for ever in that which I create, for, behold, I create Jerusalem a rejoicing, and her people a joy. And I will rejoice in Jerusalem, and joy in My people: and the voice of weeping shall be no more heard in her; nor the voice of crying," Hallelujah. Here is Jehovah of the Old Testament, "the God of the Amen". Here is Jesus of the New Testament, "the God of the Amen". Hear, Oh Israel, the Lord thy God is ONE God. There it is again, the Jehovah of the Old Testament is the Jesus of the New. "Hear, Oh, Israel the Lord thy God is ONE God." The New Testament does not reveal ANOTHER God, it is a further revelation of the ONE AND SAME GOD. Christ did not come down to make Himself known. He did not come to reveal the Son. He came to reveal and make known the Father. He never talked about two Gods; He talked about ONE God. And now in this last age, we have come back to the capstone revelation, the most important revelation of Godhead in the whole Bible, that is, JESUS IS GOD, HE AND THE FATHER ARE ONE: THERE IS ONE GOD, AND HIS NAME IS THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.
