<TITLE>05. Par 15-19</TITLE>L-15 I'm going to take about four ways to see God. Then we'll come down and make it, in the last part of it, a way where you'll be--have to see God. I'm going to show Him to you, if I can, by the help of the Spirit tonight in four different manners.
Now first, we want to speak of God in His universe, and God in His Word, God in His Son, then God here in His people. I want to show you God in His universe, show you God in His Word, show you God in His Son, then see God here in His people. Then that ought to satisfy any of us, surely.

L-16 Let's bow our heads. Eternal God, the Author of Life and Giver of every good gift, as we now have opened up the Word and read It, the Words that fell from Your beloved Son Jesus. We know they're eter--eternally true, and that they're infinite. There's nothing more truer than God's Word. And we love It. Faith cometh by hearing, and hearing of the Word.
And now, Father, that the people may be established now, may be settled upon the Word, the solid Foundation, that is, if Satan should come to them in any manner, they could flee to the Word. "It is written."...
Now, Father, help us tonight and open the Word to us, and open our understanding. Circumcise the lips of Your servant that speaks, and circumcise the hearts of the people that the Word may fall in, that It may fall in rich fertile ground and bring forth a hundredfold. And may there not be a feeble one among us after tonight. May it be over tonight, every one with faith, Father. Grant it.
And now, may the Holy Spirit take the things of God and deliver them right out to the people, for we ask it in the Name of the Son of God, Jesus Christ. Amen.

L-17 That's the aged old cry: "If I could only find God." The... All ages, people are born to worship. You'll worship something. Maybe it's your child, your car, your home, your job, maybe even your church. That will not work. It isn't the church we worship; it's God.
The caveman, the Indians, the American Indian, we found that he worshipped the sun. And he believed there was a happy hunting ground. When one died, they put the corn and so forth, his bow and arrow, and sent him out across the sea somewhere in his canoe, that he would find the happy hunting ground where he would have provisions to carry him over.
There's something in the human heart that calls out for a worship, somewhere. No man is on earth without worship. He worships something.

L-18 Jesus told the woman at the well, "You worship, ye know not what. We know salvation's of the Jew."
Now, worship is not all we desire. There is a provided way of worship. Did you know that? See? There's a way to worship, and a way, right way to worship and the wrong way to worship. I'm not trying to tell you which way to worship; but I'm telling you; there's a way that you have to approach God. And if you do not come that provided way, you certainly cannot find God.
There's a way for me to go home, not across the field, shortcut; go the highway. That's what was made; it's provided for me.
God don't have any shortcuts. We all come the same way. That's right. No shortcuts to glory. We must come the way.

L-19 Look in the beginning when Cain and Abel were turned from the garden, their parents, and they both seen they were mortal beings and knowed they had to die... Look. Cain and Abel, both of them wanted to worship God. And Cain, he built an altar to God.
Now, if an altar is all that God requires, Cain was justified. And Cain made a sacrifice upon the altar. Is that right? Well, if a sacrifice and an altar is all God wants, Cain was justified. Then Cain also he built an altar, and he worshipped; he put a sacrifice on it, and he knelt down and worshipped God. But God was displeased, because he didn't come the right way.
See, he built a church, an altar; he put a sacrifice on the altar, brought the fruits of the land, was probably the--more beautiful. You must watch this, friend. Don't never forget this.
