It's the same Book, but one of them was your natural birth, the other one is your spiritual birth. One leads out to the other one, just like a stalk of wheat. Whenever you talk to me, you talk to me as a living person. But there's a part of me here, is that person, that must perish. That's the Book that the name comes off of. But the Eternal one, the Predestinated one, the Elected one, the name never can come from there because it was always on It. It can never be taken off.

“THE EPHESIAN AGE” 02 GENESIS 2:7 And the LORD God formed man of the dust of the ground, and breathed into his nostrils the breath of life; and man became a living soul. THE.PILLAR.OF.FIRE_ JONESBORO.AR SATURDAY_ E-11 I believe that in the beginning God made man in His own image, and God is a Spirit. And God made man spirit-man. Then He made him in the dust of the earth. Now, I believe that man in the beginning, well, led the animals of the earth like the Holy Spirit ought to be leaving the--leading the Church today. There was no man to till the soul, so then He put him in five senses. Them five senses was not to contact God. That was see, taste, feel, smell, and hear. They were to contact his earthly home. But by his spirit he contacts God. SOULS.THAT.ARE.IN.PRISON.NOW_ JEFF.IN V-2 N-22 SUNDAY_ M 38 And then, first, man was made, he was a spirit man, in the image of God.

HEBREWS.CHAPTER.FIVE.AND.SIX.1_ JEFF.IN HEB SUNDAY_ M 57 …And when we, through that theophany, that, we were made in the image of God before the world was ever made; when that theophany has been made flesh and dwelt among us, then, through His death, we ourselves receive His Spirit and we have no end; Eternal Life... … And what God does is off of God, which is as Eternal as God is. And man is just as Eternal as his Creator, because he was made from Eternity.

EZEKIEL 18:22 All his transgressions that he hath committed, they shall not be mentioned unto him: in his righteousness that he hath done he shall live. EZEKIEL 18:23 Have I any pleasure at all that the wicked should die? saith the Lord GOD: and not that he should return from his ways, and live?

“THE EPHESIAN AGE” 02 ISAIAH 14:12 How art thou fallen from heaven, O Lucifer, son of the morning! how art thou cut down to the ground, which didst weaken the nations! ISAIAH 14:13 For thou hast said in thine heart, I will ascend into heaven, I will exalt my throne above the stars of God: I will sit also upon the mount of the congregation, in the sides of the north: ISAIAH 14:14 I will ascend above the heights of the clouds; I will be like the most High. ISAIAH 14:15 Yet thou shalt be brought down to hell, to the sides of the pit.

“THE EPHESIAN AGE” 02 EZEKIEL 28:12 Son of man, take up a lamentation upon the king of Tyrus, and say unto him, Thus saith the Lord GOD; Thou sealest up the sum, full of wisdom, and perfect in beauty. EZEKIEL 28:13 Thou hast been in Eden the garden of God; every precious stone was thy covering, the sardius, topaz, and the diamond, the beryl, the onyx, and the jasper, the sapphire, the emerald, and the carbuncle, and gold: the workmanship of thy tabrets and of thy pipes was prepared in thee in the day that thou wast created. EZEKIEL 28:14 Thou art the anointed cherub that covereth; and I have set thee so: thou wast upon the holy mountain of God; thou hast walked up and down in the midst of the stones of fire. EZEKIEL 28:15 Thou wast perfect in thy ways from the day that thou wast created, till iniquity was found in thee.

“THE EPHESIAN AGE” 02 JOB 31:28 This also were an iniquity to be punished by the judge: for I should have denied the God that is above. JOB 31:29 If I rejoiced at the destruction of him that hated me, or lifted up myself when evil found him: JOB 31:30 Neither have I suffered my mouth to sin by wishing a curse to his soul. JOB 31:31 If the men of my tabernacle said not, Oh that we had of his flesh! we cannot be satisfied. JOB 31:32 The stranger did not lodge in the street: but I opened my doors to the traveller. JOB 31:33 If I covered my transgressions as Adam, by hiding mine iniquity in my bosom:

“THE EPHESIAN AGE” 02 THAT.DAY.ON.CALVARY_ JEFF.IN V-2 N-5 SUNDAY_ And there was a requirement for sin. The requirement was death. Death was the penalty, and that is... We could go into great details of this, because I do not believe that there is but one death. There is one life. And I believe a man that has Eternal Life can never die, and I believe there is a complete annihilation of that soul that sins, for the Bible said, "The soul that sinneth, it shall surely die," not the man, the soul that sinneth. So Satan must surely die to be completely destroyed. How I disagree with the universalist that say that Satan will be saved. He sinned, and he's the originator of sin. And his soul sinned and he was a spirit. That spirit shall be totally annihilated to be nothing left of it.

“THE EPHESIAN AGE” 02 JAMES 4:1 From whence come wars and fightings among you? come they not hence, even of your lusts that war in your members? EPHESIANS 3:10 To the intent that now unto the principalities and powers in heavenly places might be known by the church the manifold wisdom of God, EPHESIANS 6:12 For we wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places.

“THE EPHESIAN AGE” 02 GALATIANS 5:16 This I say then, Walk in the Spirit, and ye shall not fulfil the lust of the flesh. GALATIANS 5:17 For the flesh lusteth against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh: and these are contrary the one to the other: so that ye cannot do the things that ye would.

ROMANS 6:5 For if we have been planted together in the likeness of his death, we shall be also in the likeness of his resurrection: ROMANS 6:6 Knowing this, that our old man is crucified with him, that the body of sin might be destroyed, that henceforth we should not serve sin.

“THE EPHESIAN AGE” 02 QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS.4_ JEFF.IN COD SUNDAY_ E This is a dying spirit in a dying body; but now, you can't be in two bodies at one time, but there can be two natures in you at one time. Now, the nature of the Spirit of the Lord... When you're borned again, you're not borned of physical, like the baby was; but what's happened, the spiritual birth has come to you. COMMUNION_ TUCSON.AZ V-8 N-4 SUNDAY_ I was saying this, taking for myself, like you was going to say, "William Branham, well, forty years ago, the William Branham, it isn't the same one tonight."

“THE EPHESIAN AGE” 02 QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS_ JEFF.IN COD SUNDAY_ M 676-Q Please explain the difference between the spirit and the soul. …The soul is the nature of that spirit, that when the Holy Spirit comes upon you, It does not do nothing... You... It changes or converts your spirit to a different soul. And that soul is a different nature that's on that spirit. So the soul is the nature of your spirit.

It's your soul that's been changed. The old soul died, and the new soul which is the new nature was borned into you.
