Answer: It was the desire of the Apostle Paul to present to Christ a victorious Church already in his time (2. Cor. 11:2-4). However, he feared that just as the serpent beguiled Eve, likewise the minds of the believers would also be corrupted in regard to the simplicity that is in Christ. Then he shows how the deception is being introduced by those who preach another Jesus, who have received another spirit, and who proclaim another gospel. According to Eph. 5:26-27 Jesus Christ Himself will be the One, “… that He might present it to Himself a glorious Church not having spot or wrinkle.” The greatest man of God can only preach the Word, but the Lord Himself is the Word. He has purchased His Church, He calls out the elect, and He is the One Who will complete the work of Redemption. Those who preach will be judged in the presence of the ones they have preached to, according to what Brother Branham experienced when he was taken beyond the curtain of time. That is in agreement with Rom. 14:7-12 and 2. Cor. 5:9-10. The Apostle Paul said, “For we shall all stand before the Judgement Seat of Christ.”
