Our Lord and Christ endured a crown of thorns first, then the scourging and by those stripes we are healed.

“CALL ME MARA” RUTH 1:19-21
October 21, 1979 Sunday A.M. Shiloh
When God sought for a greatgrandmother of King David, a man after God’s own heart who said his heart was fixed on God, He picked Ruth, a woman of determined faith, without bitterness at the dealings of God. Her motherin-law changed her name from “pleasant” to “bitter” under those same dealings that Ruth endured. Bitterness results from the evaluation of your circumstances and God’s dealings without complete faith in the Word He has spoken. (33 min.)

BITTERNESS REMEMBERS WHAT GOD HAS FORGOTTEN
October 21, 1979 Sunday A.M. Shiloh
Bitterness is often a memory of distorted facts and our subjective reaction to the past. But God sees faith and accounts it for righteousness and blots out the memory of even our transgressions against Himself. Should we not also pray to forgive and forget, and account our brother’s faith as righteousness? (8 min.)

IMPARTATION IS A TWO WAY STREET
November 19, 1978 Sunday A.M. Val.
Here is a deeper look at the divine order at the local church. We impart and commission on the basis of revelation, not democratic election. By revelation we channel His authority to His people.

Included on this tape are only a few of over seventy declarations that came during the Feast of Passover by people submitting their businesses to the apostolic company and loosing them from the ties of Babylon.

“I’LL TOLERATE NO DELAY!!!”
September 21, 1975 Sunday A.M. Val.
Satan has a timetable of destruction so that “no flesh will be saved alive.” To accomplish his purpose he tries to hinder, to delay or to distract us from the word God has given us to fulfill. In this message the answer is given to blast through the walls of delay. Several apostolic exhortations that came in the Anaheim service follow. These deeply stirred up also the violent hunger in everyone’s heart. The violent prayer after each exhortation is edited to about one minute although prayer time covered over an hour of the service. This is a very deeply moving service. “He Shall Come To Us As The Rain,” Sun. P.M. SoG. 9/21/75, is a very essential sequel which climaxes this morning’s word.
