MARTYRS AND THE MARK: The Cost Of Standing For The True Word Of God

Revelation 6:1-10, Acts 7:59,60, John 16:2

THE GOSPEL HAS ALWAYS BEEN PAID FOR WITH BLOOD
Abel – The First Blood Shed for Righteousness Gen 4:8, Mt 23:35
John the Baptist – The First to Die for the Holy Ghost Plan
Jesus Christ – The Ultimate Sacrifice
Stephen – Stoned for Preaching the Truth acts 7:51-53

THE COMING PERSECUTION – THE BLOOD WILL CONTINUE TO FLOW
The Cry of the Martyrs – “How Long, O Lord?”
The Ecumenical Council and the Mark of the Beast

RECOGNIZING THE HAPPENINGS OF YOUR AGE
228 And just exactly, if you’ll look up there, THUS SAITH THE LORD. First, the Word said it. Then the Spirit of the Lord said, in 1933, that told all these other things about the nations going to war, and how the machines would be, and everything like that, said that’s exactly what would happen at the end. And here it is. It’s never failed. And here we see it shaping up.
229 You remember my sermon on Jezebel Religion not long ago? You remember Elisha coming down the road that morning, to tell them? That, I preached on that. See? And how I predicted then that the time would come when this Ecumenical Council would finally become the mark of the beast, because it would unite with the beast. It’s doing it. In my age, I’ve lived to see it. And here the Protestants, by the millions, fall for it. Why? That’s what they’re looking for.

A DIFFICULT PRICE TO PAY
230 They are blind! Jesus told those Pharisees, “You blind leaders of the blind. If the blind leads the blind,” He said, “won’t they all fall in the ditch?” And that’s where they fall. How could I ever believe that a man that stood with me and talked with me, could ever sit and make a remark like that! See, “It’s hid, the eyes, from the wise and prudent, and reveal It to babes such as will learn.” 231 I know someday that’s going to cost me my life. That’s right. It’s going to, but here the Truth is being knowed. Uh-huh.

THERE IS GOING TO BE MORE THAT’LL GIVE THEIR LIFE’S BLOOD
First one to die for this Holy Ghost plan, Was John the Baptist, but he didn’t shirk, he died like a man; Then came the Lord Jesus, they crucified Him, He preached that the Spirit would save man from sin. (Is that right?)
Then they stoned Stephen, he preached against sin, He made them so angry, they dashed his head in; But he died in the Spirit, he gave up the ghost, And went to join the others, that life-giving host.
There is Peter and Paul, and John the divine, They give up their lives so the Gospel could shine; (What did they do?) They mingled their blood, with the prophets of old, So the true Word of God would honest be told.
Souls under the altar, were crying, “How long?” For the Lord to punish all that’s done wrong; But there is going to be more that’ll give their life’s blood (Yep, that’s right.) For this Holy Ghost Gospel and Its crimson flood.
Just keeps dripping with blood.

GOD FORBID THAT I COMPROMISE ON ANYTHING
232 Yes, it’ll do it someday, but I’m waiting that hour when it’s finished.
233 Some sister just had a dream. She sent it to me, said, “I seen them, that church fixed a way,” is going to kill me, secretly, sometime, I’m getting out of my car, “going in, be fired from…” but said, “then the Spirit said, ‘Not at this time, but it’ll come later.’” Uh-huh.
234 God forbid that I compromise on anything. I know nothing but Jesus Christ and Him crucified. We’re living in a horrible day. Sin has did this. Yep. They—they stoned Stephen. They had John’s head cut off, she did. I don’t know how we’ll give ours, but it’ll be someday. All right, notice.

GOD'S SOVEREIGNTY: NO ONE CAN TAKE A LIFE UNLESS HE ALLOWS IT
Jesus Escaped Until His Hour Came
Paul Was Preserved Until His Mission Was Fulfilled
William Branham Could Not God Before Time

THE FINAL VICTORY: THOSE WHO OVERCOME WILL REIGN
Martyrdom is Not in Vain – The Blood of the Saints Speaks
The Overcomers Will Rule with Christ
