<TITLE>06. Par 20-23</TITLE>L-20 Brother Gordon told me I could have this little privilege tonight, as it was, to speak to the people awhile just before we make the final outpush for the ending of the services.
Notice, it refreshes me to speak on the Word. It helps me. It keeps me... Sometime under that anointing, It falls on me. And then I stay under there for a long time, I get so weak I can hardly stand. But preaching never bothers me. I love to talk of the Word.
Notice. Then... Reason I was calling those people a few minutes ago, and different ones, and I see another one come right now, that's healed right now. But the reason I was doing that, is because that you might know that His Spirit is here now. He's in the building now. See?

L-21 But now, back to Cain and Abel, when Cain worshipped, he built an altar; he sacrificed; he worshipped God. But that wasn't enough. And it was beautiful, no doubt the flowers and things that grows in the field, and he decorated his altar.
Why soon, as soon as Easter come, across the nations there'll be million dollars spent for Easter flowers that go on the altar. Well, God don't care about that Easter flower on the altar. He wants you on the altar. You're the person for the altar, not your flower, or your money; He wants you. The altar was built for you to sacrifice your own will to His will. See?
Well, then... But if an altar, sacrifice, worship is all that God requires, then you'll have to say Cain was justified. And watch that beauty.
Now, that's right in our--many of our Full Gospel churches coming right into it. See? They want to build a little better church, put a few thousand dollars in a pipe organ. That doesn't bring God in. That might bring people. But self-sacrifice brings God in--to the will of God. See?

L-22 And remember, in glory the first thing that ever caused the first sin, that Satan wanted a little better things than what Michael had, went over and set himself up a--a better, beau--more beautiful kingdom. See? That's beauty. Here it falls right down into his son, Cain, coming right on down. And he decorated his altar, beautiful.
But here comes Abel dragging a little old lamb behind him. I don't see nothing so pretty about that. They didn't have any ropes in them days, I guess, so they had a vine, maybe, wrapped around his neck, because it was--it was Christ. That's Who It was. For they led Him away like a La--Lamb to the slaughter.
They put a rope around his neck. And here he come, leading this little lamb, bleating, pulling back. He laid him upon a rock. Perhaps didn't have any sharp knives in them days. Probably took an old sharp rock, and held his little head back, and begin to beat his little throat; Abel did. See? And the blood begin to spurt out of his little arteries in his neck.
Did you ever hear a lamb dying? Most pathetic thing you ever heard is to hear a lamb die. How it bleeds and bleats.

L-23 God looking down out of heaven said, "That's what it takes." The blood speaking, what did it speak of? Years after that, the Lamb of God was led away. Blood... You're the blood of your father and mother. But being borned again, you become the Blood of God, the Blood of Christ cleansing us.
And there He was, the Lamb of God, hanging up there on Calvary, bleeding, bleating, His bloody locks dripping from His head upon His shoulders, the blood spatting everywhere. I believe, like Billy Sunday said in that hour, said, "There's Angels setting in every bush, said, 'Just turn Your hand away. Point to us, and we'll destroy this mob.'"
Some of them said, "He saved Himself... He saved others and Himself He cannot save," criticizing. That was the greatest tribute was ever paid Him. He couldn't save Hisself and others, so He gave Hisself to save others.
There is the way. There brought down the results standing there for the Holy Spirit coming through the Blood, the Life brings the human today in contact with God.
