May 26, 1974 Sunday P.M. Ana.
The Lord brings us into the fire and we find all of the human level of life losing its interest for us. The natural instincts of self-preservation and joy in things, in people of the world, and in friends dies. Often even the will to live disappears. The baptism of fire brings the end of the flesh life that we might live in the Spirit. (60 min.)

Release #: 74-06-06-09-R
This cassette tape contained the following message by John Robert Stevens.
May 5, 1974 Sunday P.M. Val.
Christ is the Word–i.e. the expression of all the Father is and reveals. As we receive Him and His Word we are becoming also the Word made flesh. We are the living epistles of Christ. The first chapter of John also ends with the words “the Son of Man.” So the chapter begins designating Jesus as God and ends designating Him as the Son of Man. We only understand our Redeemer when we understand how completely He became man and how perfectly we will take on the nature of God. (58 min.)

The Bible begins with “And God said.” Everything begins by a word from God. Satan said, “Hath God said?” to Eve.

God’s Word is settled in heaven. His purpose is unchangeable. His provision for us is perfect. He and His promises are immutable. We are the variables.

Usually a message is not repeated in the churches but this message was preached both in the Valley and in Anaheim. Both versions are similar but enough different to warrant the inclusion of both.
