Nothing but the Spirit; no world, at all; no unbelief, at all. It's God's Filter. And when you breathe through That, nothing can get through That but the Holy Ghost. Now you got the evidence of the Holy Ghost, see, a holy man or woman's taste.
Brother Branham is again at the Tabernacle to bring the evening message. He chuckled a bit at the audience’s reaction when he announced the title of his sermon because it pertained to a slogan from a cigarette company. He goes on to bring us a powerful message about how the world produces a worldly man’s taste and the Holy Spirit produces a holy man’s taste.
We’ve been waiting all week to enjoy this sermon with the Bride around the world, and we promise, our Lord Jesus will not disappoint. Here are a few highlights from the sermon titled, “A Thinking Man’s Filter.”
Now, oh, there's so many things that needs to be done, and such a short time to do it, so just put all of our efforts now in what we can do for our Lord.
My, we must be just one, one body. We must move together, forgetting one another's sins and our differences, and just sticking closer and closer and closer, as we see that Day approaching. Assembling ourselves together, all with one accord and one heart. And if a brother, sister gets out of the way, in any way, don't do nothing but pray for that person, and in love, always considering one another.
I looked at that thing, and I thought, "A thinking man's filter?" I thought, "If the man could think at all, he wouldn't smoke at all…”
They just let so much of the world get in to satisfy the unbelievers that's in there.
"A thinking man's filter, a smoking man's taste." A religious world's filter, and a worldly man's taste.
Then a husband ought to live such a life before his wife that his wife could reverence him as a son of God.
When a thinking man comes through God's Filter, it gives him a holy man's taste.
There is only one Filter, that you can enter into that holy place, that's through "the washing of the water by the Word." The Word of God is a thinking man's Filter.
Sin connects with sin, and sin is so hypocritical until it thinks that it's saved when it isn't saved. It's in the very depths of hypocrisy.
Education, civilization, church, denomination, system, sin of all types is left outside when a thinking man takes a thinking man's Filter, in God's estimation.
… if you draw your desires through God's Filter, a thinking man's Filter, there is nothing left but the Holy Ghost. Now, if you want the evidence of the Holy Ghost, there it is.
That's the only thing that can pass through the Word, is the Holy Ghost. And a thinking man's Filter gives a holy man a taste.
How did you laugh and make fun of the people that God sent to you! But now your time has come. Oh, United States, United States, how that God would have hovered you as a—a hen does its brood, but you would not." Now this Voice is going from coast to coast, from north to south, and east to west. How God would have hovered you, but you would not! Now your time has come.
Everything that you do, pass it through the Filter of God's Word, see if it's right or wrong.
Nothing but the Spirit; no world, at all; no unbelief, at all. It's God's Filter. And when you breathe through That, nothing can get through That but the Holy Ghost. Now you got the evidence of the Holy Ghost, see, a holy man or woman's taste.
The Message now goes into history, and It's recorded on the Book. We all have to answer now for this, every move that we made, every word that we said, every thought went through our mind, the record is still playing. And it'll play on till life is over, and then we'll answer at the Day of the Judgment.
