Thought Of The Day  

23     If therefore the whole church be come together into one place, and all speak with tongues, and there come in those that are unlearned, or unbelievers, will they not say that ye are mad?  24     But if all prophesy, and there come in one that believeth not, or one unlearned, he is convinced of all, he is judged of all:  25     And thus are the secrets of his heart made manifest; and so falling down on his face he will worship God, and report that God is in you of a truth. ~ I CORINTHIANS 14:23-25

Paul is interpreting for us what prophecy is, at least in this case. Prophecy can be a foretelling of the future events, but in Revelation 10:8-11, John, who represents the Bride, is told the eat the Book because he must prophecy to the nations. Paul states that if ALL prophesy, and there comes in an unbeliever, he will be judged and the secrets of his heart are made manifest. THAT is the demonstration of the Gospel that Bro Branham spoke of when he would quote John 14:12 and Jesus’ works we would do. He would always relate it to the discernment of the woman at the well, and also to Sarah in the tent on the plains of Mamre. Many will do works of healing and deliverance, but ONLY God can discern the heart. It is the proof of the Gospel and the demonstration of our election. It is Christ IN YOU doing the works.
