Well, it's a wonderful, wonderful privilege to be back here. We were here on a Tuesday night for a very wonderful time. And I was so blessed to be here this morning with a message of our pastor. And on the way up, I just prayed a very short prayer.

And my prayer was that Dr. Wilkerson would be here this time, and he was. I'm so thrilled to be with this wonderful man, friend that I've known a very long time. You know, with preachers, you can have great trust, confidence, and love one another.

But the way it is, you may not see each other for every 25 years. That's just the way it works with ministry. But he's always been one of the real favorite folks. I've kept up with him, his prophecies, his books, down through the years.

And what a privilege it is to be here. And I look at this church, this second time that I've been here, but I knew about it long before. I heard him when he first was coming here. God had told him to come back, and I remember well.

He said, I don't want to go back so anybody else could go. But I come, and the miracle of this church here, right in the heart of this city. I had a little layover in Houston. I flew to Houston, had a little layover, and there's a young lady sitting there by me.

And I had to make a little trip. And they said, don't ever leave your bags with strangers. So I said, what's your name, ma 'am? She was about 20. She said, Amy. I said, I'm Bert. You know each other's first name.

You're not strangers. Would you please watch my bag? She did. And so when I came back, I began to talk to her. And she said, are you from New York? I said, no, I'm going. Well, she had been working in Houston for a month.

She worked some financial something and was coming back. And she said, what are you going to do in New York? I said, I'm going to preach in the Times Square Church. Oh, she said, I've heard of that church.

I said, very few people on this earth have not heard of this church one way or another. But you know, every work of God that's truly of God was inside of a man before there's ever any evidence of it anywhere.

Always. It's always been birthed in the heart of that man before he ever come. And how wonderful that is. All of the power, everything is there in that man when he comes. Moses went back to Egypt. He had no plans just to do what he's told.

That's how he delivered three million people. And I look at this church. I'm always blessed. You know, this could not be. It's just impossible in the heart of the city where it is for this kind of a church.

But it's here by the grace of God. Yes. I've learned in 53 years of preaching this gospel that for a man or a woman to be in union with the will of God is to be in union with God himself. The only thing I've ever had to know in my life was what God wanted me to do.

The rest of it was his responsibility. I heard Pastor David say today that I don't know the birthday, but he said this was 20 years of this great church. Well, tomorrow is the 14th birthday of the school of Christ.

I moved to Russia at that time. I went to talk to the, you know, the Bible said don't tell it to get, you know, that just means don't share it with the wrong people. I found out what that meant. I went to talk with the folks of the organization about going.

They said, you're too old. I just turned 70. And they said, you're too old. I said, I'm sorry, but Moses was 10 years older than me before he got to the purpose of life. I said, God's been educating me now all these years for what I was called to do in life.

And I said, took Moses 80 years to get there. I'm going to make it 70. But, you know, 14 years ago tomorrow, actually tomorrow, the second day of October, the first school of 120 students came into that school.

And now 14 years later, 131 countries and about $20 million. We're there tonight. All in the will of God. I had no money when it started. I have no money tonight. I don't know where it all come from, but it come.

Money has never been an issue. Never. I've always said if it's his will, then he'll make a way. When he ceases to make a way, I'll cease going. I learned that from one of the great missionaries of all time.

He was a missionary to inland China. And at one time when the works seemed to be falling apart, he wrote his sister Alice. And he said to her, it looks like the whole thing's coming apart. But said it's his church.

And if he's through with it, so am I. You'll never have ulcers if you live that way. If you live in the will of God. It's such a privilege to be here with you tonight. Talking here, this is the youth service.

As far as I understand, I looked at this beautiful choir. Always blessed. If I could come here and be the youth pastor, I'd come with pastor tomorrow. Amen. To see young people called to God tells me God hasn't given up on the human race.

No matter how dark it may look, to look at these beautiful young people up here, I said there's still a great hope for this world. And you know, as I looked at them singing, worshiping, and the pastor had those to hold their hands up that were 30 or under.

And I looked back to Moses. That first generation of Egyptians refused to cross that river. God turned them back to a wilderness to die. Though they'd lost every opportunity with God, yet God used them to breed a generation that would cross that river.

In 53 years of preaching, I've watched the church become other than what God intended as a whole. But in all of that time, he's bred a generation that will cross that river. Oh, hallelujah. They will cross that river.

Somebody from my generation has to help them across, so he's left Dr. Wilkerson and I here to help you get across that river. Amen. Somebody has to help you get over there. So tonight, I'm going to read from the 37th chapter of the book of Genesis in verse 19.

I come here. I didn't know whether Pastor wanted me to preach all day, one time, or come listen. It really didn't matter. I just was glad to come. But I knew if I preached at this time, what I was going to preach.

Joseph's Dream and the Testing of God's Word

My message, the dreamer. Reading from Genesis chapter 37 and verse 19. Chapter 37 and verse 19. And they said, this is the older sons of Jacob. And they said one to another, behold, this dreamer cometh.

Father, I thank you tonight for the wonderful time we've had today. For the message this morning. For the spirit of the Lord. The wonderful blessing to my heart. I came here. You knew needing to hear what I heard today.

Now, if you'll help me to speak this word, I'll be ever so grateful. In the name of Jesus. Amen. Joseph, the greatest type of the Lord Jesus Christ found in the Old Testament. He was somewhere around 17 years old when God gave him the vision of his life.

He was a younger son of Jacob. Always at that time, he's like grandchildren. You know, grandchildren. My son has two sons. And when they were growing up, they're both grown now and have families. But when they were growing up, I had them in my home a lot.

And my son said to me one time, he said, you let these boys get away with what you'd have killed me for. And I said, I know. But I want you to correct them when you get them home now. You straighten them out.

It's different with grandchildren. And so it was different with Joseph. He was a child of the old man Jacob. And it was a little different with him. Joseph dreamed a dream. And in that dream, he saw the plan and purpose of God unfolded.

17 years old. God spoke the Word to him. We have no record. He may have. But we have no record that he ever spoke it again. He told him one time. Then for 13 years, you know, he spent 10 years a slave, 3 years in a dungeon.

All of the while, the Bible said he was being tested by the Word of God. Our message this morning, what a wonderful profound truth. All of that has to be tested. God has to know what I'm going to do with what he's given me.

God not only is careful about giving simply because it's valuable, but he must know what I'm going to do with it when he gives it. So, the Bible says in the 115th Psalm, or 105, I believe it is, that he sent a man before them, even Joseph, whose feet they laid in iron.

The margin of a good Bible says iron came into his soul. For those years that he was there, God was testing him, being tried by the Word of God. We never test the Word of God. It tests us. And everything depends upon whether we believe it or not.

Everything. Faith is not positive thinking. Faith is simply living what I believe every day of my life. All along this road, no matter what comes, what goes, it isn't positive confession, it isn't positive living.

It is simply living every day what I believe. Those three Hebrew children brought the second time before Nebuchadnezzar. He said, if you'll bow, you won't burn. If you don't, who will stop it? Their faith never kept them from burning.

They said, we don't know whether we'll burn or not, but we know we won't bow. We're going to live God's life regardless whether we live or die. That is what faith is all about. And here's Joseph. For those 13 long years, God had given him a dream.

He made the mistake of sharing his dream with his older brothers, that's the carnal religious people. He made the mistake. Don't tell it in Gath. Don't tell a lot of people. God speaks to the heart. Let it become a reality before you talk too much about what's going to happen.

He made the mistake of sharing that dream. Later, his father sent him into the field, you know, with some things for his brothers. And when his brothers saw Joseph, they said, behold, this dreamer cometh.

Now, these words were meant to be a reproach to the man that God has laid his hands upon. Behold, the dreamer. That was meant to be a reproach. Now, this dreamer talks of saving the whole world. You understand what God had put in that young man's heart at 17 years old, was going to save civilization, mostly of what it was known at that time.

A famine was coming. And Joseph was going to be the preserver. He was gone. They had enough problems within themselves. They wanted to hear nothing of this dreamers. These brothers were men of action.

They were practical men. They knew every situation of life. They must see the end from the beginning. And they wanted to hear nothing of this dreamer. Now, the word, when Joseph the dreamer was referred to as the man, not a man, which meant that he was one of the great representative men of this Bible.

There you have so much truth that's brought to us. He ruled Egypt for 50 years. One of the great, great men. Second only, the Bible says, to Pharaoh. But most of the time, Pharaoh was second to him. I've been to Egypt.

I've taught this school. We brought them. We have this school in most every Muslim country on the world. I get sometimes $3 ,000 a month's support out of Iran itself. Those students there. But I brought them into Egypt, and I had a startling discovery.

They may hate Jews, folks, but I'm telling you, one out of every ten Egyptians is named Joseph. He made an impact upon that world. Make no mistake about it. I had 56 of them, and five of them was named Joseph in the school that I had there at that time.

The Holy Place, the Veil, and the Fullness of Joy in Christ

Now, these brothers, though, that he shared it with were men of action. They were practical. They must see the end from the beginning. Everything was in this world. Now, they were like most religious people.

They wanted to go to heaven, not because they loved God, but because they didn't want to go to hell. That's the only reason. The alternative was better, and that their only interest in it. There was no interest in spiritual things.

They were religious, but their prime interest was in this world. You know, in the compartment or in the tabernacle that Moses built, there were two tabernacles or two compartments. There was a holy place where the priest came, but there was the holiest of all behind that veil that the high priest only went once a year and not without blood.

He was allowed to go in, make the offering, and come back out. Paul said that that veil said the way in was not open. But when Christ died, that veil was ripped from top to the bottom. And the way into the sanctuary of God, the holiest of all, where Christ as a high priest was opened up for all.

God said that we could walk in, but most of the church has never got beyond the holy place. They've come in, found an altar, found forgiveness, but never walked through that rent veil. How do I know? Because they've got to be entertained.

They've got to have things for pleasure. Their whole life is caught up in this world, but in that presence there's fullness of joy. In Christ's presence, young people, there's nothing else needed on this earth.

Pleasure forevermore to live in there. I've watched preachers could watch a football game for four hours, couldn't spend 15 minutes in a prayer meeting. Their whole life was token of what they were. Where their heart is, is where you're going to go.

But in that place, in that holy place, they weren't interested. The objective of these older brothers' lives could be defined without any imagination whatsoever. The first consideration in any matter, whether it be church or work, what's in the thing for me?

That was the whole consideration. We have created a generation of mere consumers, parasites of the few, that come to church not to give, but to get. And I'm not talking about money. That's the least of it all.

I'm talking about ourselves. Listen to me. They depended upon their shrewd dealing, a little luck to keep them in bread and butter. God did not enter into that part of their life. That was nothing. They were religious.

They had been raised Baptist, Methodist, assembly of God, Pentecostal. Nobody can accuse them of being an atheist. They've been Pentecostal all of their lives. They've always been church members. All reference, listen, all reference to matters concerning God, conscience, eternity, could be settled by the simple statement, We're the sons of Jacob.

Every single issue of spirituality. Does that sound familiar today? Their whole life was summed up in those words. Three things I've noticed about these boys that brought them in line with much of the religious thinking of our day.

We must know what we're up against. We must know what we face. But we must know that ultimately, it all belongs to us. If we'll walk with God and be faithful. One of the things I've noticed about those and much of religion today was their utter contempt for the dream in Joseph.

Their utter contempt for the dream in Joseph. These sons of Jacob have clearly defined ideas about religion. They have it figured out. They know to them religion was a private matter and it must at all times be kept separate from business and pleasure.

We've heard that today. The separation of the carnal, of the natural and the spiritual. But God bought me body, soul and spirit. Everything about us belongs to God. Not a matter of part of me is this and part is that.

We belong to God. The way into that holiest of all. That new and living way opened up by Christ is a matter if you give everything, you'll get everything back. It costs everything to live in that presence.

Nothing of this flesh has any place in that place. To them the matter of religion under no circumstances should a man's religion be allowed to affect his politics. I've been told that so much. He must be perfectly free to believe one thing and vote the opposite.

Doesn't matter. I don't allow my business matters to come into my religion. The second thing is a supreme confidence in their natural ability to cope with life. That has become, I've watched the church today.

The purpose driven, the user friendly, all of the things that we have today. That have become idolatrous tools that have come in the way of Christ. The only effectiveness this church has had upon New York is a measure of Christ that we've brought to the city.

That is the measure of the effectiveness of one life or a corporate life. All of it in the measure of Christ that I bring. I live in a neighborhood. How much Christ do I bring to that neighborhood? I do business in stores and ride airplanes.

What measure of Christ do I bring to that airplane? The whole of life rests in that one and only thing. Those sons of Jacob, they were the first purpose driven church on this earth. To them the Holy Spirit was a luxury.

Amen. Was a luxury, not an expedient. There was something to be nice to have if you'd like to have it. Their only concern was to how to make that system grow. Nothing else. The idolatry. A great friend of mine started the church about four years ago.

I was with him after two years. He had about a hundred people, good solid people. And I stayed in his home and he was saying to me, I don't understand why this church don't grow. I said, I've noticed quite a growth in the church myself.

Why is it only have ten more people than when you were here the last time? I said, you're talking about addition, not growth. Eleven year old girl can have a baby, but she can't be a mother. A church has to grow spiritually if God's going to give them children.

See, we've mistaken the matter. We've turned the church into a circus. A church in New Orleans has a band from the nightclub, a different one every Sunday to play and sing in that church. They can't get the people in there.

Man said, how do you account for that? I said, they don't have to pay to him at the church, have to pay at the pub. That's the only difference. But they said one Sunday morning, the man goes there said, they asked what you want us to sing.

They said, your cheating heart is going to show up on you or something else. This is a thing. The church has become a circus to attract people, but with no change in their lives. All this can produce is Ishmael's, never an Isaac.

Only Christ can change a man's life. And when the sinner is no longer Christ, it's no longer church. He's not a God of the dead, folks, he's a God of the living. And if that church is not a living thing, then it's not his church.

It's just a religious debating society, no matter how true it is to what it preaches as far as what it says. Our churches overflow with people that are mere consumers. Instead of having to learn, having learned to pray, the ecclesiastical parasite becomes satisfied being prayed for.

This is a whole thing. We go to church to be prayed for. We don't need so much churches calling prayer meetings as we do Christians that pray. People, that's their life. Amen. This becomes the history of their lives to communicate with God.

His transaction with the eternal are affected by commission. Amen. All along, His work for Christ is done by paid clergy. His whole life is a prolonged indulgence in the bounties of the church. Wise men search to see whether what I'm saying, whether Dr. Wilson says, or our pastor says is true or not.

It's always, Jesus said, search the scriptures. Find out if what we're hearing is the truth or not. But that's not the truth of our time. When a person loses his quest for truth, he loses truth itself.

When that love for truth is lost, then you have lost truth. There's no hope at that point in time. Preaching that does not make you search is not the gospel preaching. If it doesn't stir that heart to make us look deeper, then that's not gospel preaching.

The New Birth and Restoration of the Image of God

These sons of Jacob hated everything that was spiritual. Should you ask Reuben, how is it with your soul? His reply would have been very quickly, I'm the oldest son of Jacob. I've been a charter member of this church longer, son, than you've been alive.

Then you question me about my spirituality. I was sick one morning, Sunday morning, very ill. I couldn't go to church. I just couldn't go. But I turned on the television, and there was a Methodist broadcast, Methodist church.

And the preacher was preaching. And in the message he said, I was in a church, and he said, in New York. I'm sure it wasn't Times Square, but he said he was here in New York. And he said, I preached that morning when I was at the back door shaking hands.

A lady come by and asked me the question, have you been born again? And I said to her, ma 'am, I'm a graduate of three universities. How dare you to ask me if I've been born again? That's pretty well where it's come to, folks.

We don't believe in Darwinian evolution, but we do believe in spiritual evolution. We somehow taught men you can grow into this life. You must be born again. To be born again, not joining the church, not being baptized.

It is being raised from the dead. I know 57 years ago, I was raised from the dead. I went into that church at 730. One thing, I come out at 930-something else. And for 57 years, I've never had any desire for that back there.

I saw Christ in that moment. Everything changed. Everything was different. The whole attitude of life. What I loved, I hated. What I hated, I loved. I had met the Christ, and everything from that moment was changed.

I was in New Jersey in January, and they wanted me to preach to a rehabilitation house, drug addict. They had about 60 or 70 there, nine-month program. And it was, they averaged about 15 staying through it, most of them.

Because there were a lot of people wanting to bed and something to eat, I think it was. But I prayed much. They wanted me to preach in it. The church sponsored it. Well, when I got there, I knew they weren't saved.

The way the thing was run. I just knew I was going there all outside. Amen. The smoking. I'm not saying there's not somebody born again that hasn't got over something yet. I'm just saying that's the attitude of the whole thing.

The man that run it was the same. But charity believes all things. And I prayed much about what will I say to these people here? What will I say to them? Well, first thing I said, how many of you have been born again?

Every hand was raised. Well, charity believes everything. I knew better, but I acted on the assumption they were. I said, then let me tell you something. I've come here to tell you the secret of it all.

That new creature had never had a needle in its arm. It's never stole the tithe. Never fornicated the first time. That new creation was created in righteousness and true holiness. It was born delivered.

Translated from the kingdom of darkness into the kingdom of God's dear son. And by one spirit, you've been placed into Christ. In him is life. And no darkness at all. There are no demons in this place.

In that new creation. And I said, there has never been. But I said, it says in the book of Hebrews, if you're mindful of where you come from, you'll go back. And if you sit here, dreaming of that needle, you'll have it pick it up again.

But if you'll set your affections on things above. Oh, hallelujah. That's the miracle of the new birth. That's the miracle. We played that down to something other. The greatest of the two great pillars upon which Christianity stands, is the greatness of that fall and the greatness of redemption.

When God created man, he created him in the image of himself. God could see mirrored in Adam, father, son, and Holy Ghost. He could see himself. But in the fall, that image was lost. In the fall, man outwardly took on the form of a beast.

Inwardly, the nature of Satan. That's what man become in his natural state. And to be redeemed is the restoration of that image. When a man is born again, by one spirit, is he placed into Christ. There's a growth of that spirit toward the image of Christ.

But it is the Christ that is there. Amen. When that man's born again, that image has been restored. And if it is not restored, then the man is just religious. He's not a born again believer. We have made the new birth something of what man can do.

We've not taught it by insinuation. The church as a whole has made men believe that if you give God an hour and a half on a Sunday morning, everything will be all right. We haven't preached that. But yet we've lived it.

Man don't come to church Sunday morning, get a phone call, personal visit, card, something else. May miss a prayer meeting, nobody calls him. And over time, he comes to believe that all I've got to do to make it is give God an hour and a half on a Sunday morning.

That's a tragedy of our time. Amen. Our churches overflow with people of just mere consumers. Amen. When a person loses that desire for truth, he loses it all. Now, these sons of Jacob hated everything spiritual.

The older sons of Jacob and their spiritual counterpart have an utter contempt for the spiritual. You know, it's a sad thing. I believe it was Mr. Tozer said that not one person in a thousand really want to talk about the person of God.

Most preachers want to talk about what they're doing, what they're going to do. It's possible, like in Ephesus, to fall in love with the work and lose out with Christ. They left their first love, which is Christ.

They had great works, but that had become the focus of their life, instead of the outworking of a knowledge of Christ. Their thought was, this boy Joseph is moving beyond the Sunday school lesson. They weren't interested.

Joseph had gone beyond the bumper stick of religion. He's heard from heaven. He's heard from God. And now what he believes demands something out of men, instead of going to church on a Sunday morning.

God had spoken to him, and they didn't want to hear what he had to say. Strange indeed, that in the field of science, men are witnessing their wildest dreams come true. Have you ever in your life... My son gave me a computer here five, six years ago.

Gave me a little notebook computer, nicest little thing. And I was fixing to go to Sweden for a meeting, and I asked him, I said, Do I have to have a transformer for this computer? He said, Not unless it's an antique.

I said, What do you mean? He said, Well, it's four or five years old. It'll have to have a transformer at that time. See, things become antiques in a year and a half. I was a boy growing up in America.

Knowledge doubled every 75 years. Now every two and a half months. Knowledge has increased. We're witnessing the world out there. Some of the wildest dreams come true. But the religious dreamers still held in contempt.

Still held in contempt. The man who can see beyond the carnal church growth programs is referred to as a mystic all along the line. These sons of Jacob surely have their counterpart in the religious world today.

They have all the answers. They can point to the book, chapter and verse. They can call it up. They can go there with a mind and head. But they're woefully ignorant of this most wonderful truth. That religion in the book is of absolutely no value unless translated into life.

I must become what I believe or there's nothing to what I believe. Paul said, It pleased God to reveal His Son in me. Why? That I might preach Him. That just simply says this generation of young people.

Maybe one of the most brilliant young people generation ever to come. They don't relate to the abstract. There must be the living testimony. There must be what I say I must be. I must be the Christian that I proclaim.

A Christian is a human edition of the divine Christ. And the church of the living God should be a walking, living incarnation of the life of God. Men ought to be able to sit among us and leave knowing that Christ is alive.

By the very life we live and what we are ought to be a testimony of the resurrection of the Lord Jesus Christ. Now, they have all the answers. Point a book. But it's no value unless translated in life.

God's desire is not merely to be expressed verbally. Truth must become a living form. When Paul said to the Galatian church, he said, he's calling them saints, so we know they're Christians. But yet, he says, he was going to prevail and believe God till Christ be formed within them.

Now, what he was saying, Christ is in you. But He's an indefinite Christ. He's not a Christ. You don't know Him. You think He's got to have help. Your whole problem. You're trying to help Him simply because you've never seen Him for what He is.

You've been born again. He called them saints. But He said, you need Christ to be formed in you to know that everything that pertains to life and godliness is in the knowledge of that Christ. Everything.

What a tragedy. I said, what a tragedy when we've lost that great truth. We've got a generation of people that believe if they know what Paul knows, they have what Paul has. But I've watched the church being guilty over my life.

I never realized it until God made me know. Dig up a new pearl every week for that church. Oh, yes. I'm being excited. I preach. I buck, jump, run. They buck and jump with me. But Monday, none of us bought it.

We're the same. I got all excited about that pearl every week, but never bought it. It cost everything to buy that pearl. You can be happy about finding it, but it means nothing unless you buy it. No, no.

I've seen churches go through that every Sunday. I'd pass to dig up an exciting sermon. Everybody get happy about it. But Monday, you know they never bought it because it's exactly like it was before they heard it.

Amen. God's desire is not merely to be expressed verbally. Truth must become a living form. God's Christ walked this earth as a living Word of God. You see, the Word of God is an act when spoken. When that Word is spoken by a Holy Ghost-filled people, then it's not just words.

It becomes an act. I give this testimony all over. I was in Lafayette, Louisiana. I had a tent put up. It's 120 miles from home. I drove every night. The first night, a man came in with his eyes, black patches on his eyes, covered up.

His wife led him in. I didn't know what's the matter with him. But after praying for the lost, we began to pray for those that were ill and needed help. And as he come across that platform, I intended to say, Jesus, heal him.

But out of my mouth, I said, you'll see in the morning. Just like that. Oh, I said, why did I say that? You know, that devil jumped right on my shoulder. Why did I say that? I drove 120 miles and every roll of them wheels, that devil said to me, Spoden, he don't see.

Well, I got home. I'd heard all I'd wanted. I said, Spoden, he does. He left me alone. I went to sleep. I got there the next night. I'm sitting on that platform watching. When that car come around, he's driving.

Oh, I said, I got that devil inside. We got that service started. I said, sure. You that was here last night, would you come up here? He came up. I said, what's your name? Charles Arnold. Where are you from?

New Iberia, Louisiana, about a half an hour down the road. I said, you come across this platform last night. You have black patches on your eye. What's wrong with you? I'm a mud engineer. And in an acid explosion, my eyes were destroyed.

They had to take them out. I come across this platform with no eyes last night. I woke up this morning with these brown eyes, 20 -20 vision. Do you know what? See, that wasn't me. God said that in spite of me.

But I believe he said to me, if you walk and live like I tell you, if you walk in the Spirit, your words will not be words, they'll be deeds. What you speak will be a reality. This is the Word of God.

This is what God wants, that Word to be an act, not just words we say. Men argue the difference between the Rhema and the Logos, when actually there is no difference. The one intrudes on the other, and the other intrudes on the first.

They become one. The Logos means the Word is a person, and the Rhema means the person is the Word. Amen. The whole thing centers in Christ. Let Christ live, and we found the answer to every problem of the church of the living God.

God never intended me as a preacher to merely know truth. He intended that I become the truth. All over this world, we've carried this gospel at School of Christ.
