What does the moon reflecting the light of the sun picture about the Church?

Question

What does the smitten Rock stand for, and what poured out of it?

Answer

John 3:16 is a perfect type of this Church today, for us. That’s the smitten Rock, Christ, God’s judgments. We being worthy of death, worthy of all this condemnation, and the judgments of God smote the Rock, Christ; and out of Him poured out everlasting water, that a perishing people might not peris...

Answer

Jesus said—never said, “Now, I have power to overcome you,” He said, “It’s written, man shall not live by bread alone,” the Father’s Words, see, “But by every Word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God.” Satan took Him up on the pinnacle and said, “If Thou be the Son of God…” Jesus said, “It is wr...

Question

What foundation can a person rest his faith on?

Answer

Now, here it is. I want you to get it. How much more foundation could you place your faith on any level than the Word of God? What more could you put faith in?

Question

Why was Jesus born in a stable rather than a house?

Answer

Let’s look down along the line now, with a—with a mental vision. I see standing along the line, rich women with babies with little lace handwork garments, holding a lamb, a rich baby’s offering.

Question

What should be done with a vision or a message that contradicts the Bible?

Answer

Now, the way that I have faith in God is first by His Word. And if any vision, or any person, would speak anything that was contrary to the Word, then don’t hear it. This is the fundamental foundation of all God has said to His Church. And every person’s faith must be built sovereignly upon the Bibl...

Question

What was the world made out of?

Answer

You got to get the man right in his heart first, before he can believe. He ain’t got nothing to believe on. He ain’t got nothing to believe with. I’m sure the little, infant brain of a man knows nothing about belief. He’s got to have something in there stimulates his faith and makes him look yonder...

Question

What does brass stand for in the Bible?

Answer

Oh, I wished I had time to go into that right now, what brass means.

Answer

Aaron when he went into the holiest of holies once a year, he had to wear a certain kind of a garment, and he had to be anointed, and he had to take blood with him. Is that right?

Question

When Satan tempted Him, did Jesus use the power and gifts He had?

Answer

He’s one that doesn’t even have a prayer line. He just stands there with the Scriptures and explains It in such a way, till the people just have to see it. That’s all. And listen.

Question

What were swaddling clothes made from?

Answer

And she’s holding this baby. I can imagine seeing He’s wrapped in swaddling cloth, the King of Glory, wrapped in swaddling cloth. They tell me that’s what they take off the back of a yoke of an ox. When it’s—keep it from rubbing its shoulders, they take this cloth off. And there’s nothing to put on...

Question

What does the brass serpent in the wilderness have to do with healing through Jesus Christ?

Answer

Let’s read a little farther. Don’t bow down to them. Don’t serve them. Destroy their images. You shall serve the Lord your God.

Question

What do the crow and the dove on the ark illustrate?

Answer

Even put it back in the ark, in the destruction of the world. There was the crow and the dove setting on the same roost. One was just as much bird as the other one was. Is that right? But what was it? One was a crow by nature, and the other was a dove by nature. One could fly just like the other one...

Question

What were Cain and Abel types of?
