<TITLE>11. Par 15-18</TITLE>L-15 I said, "Truly the Holy Spirit leads the Church; that's truth. But look," I said, "do you believe that Philip had the baptism of the Holy Spirit?"
Do you believe it, all of you? Sure, he did. Well, when he was down in Samaria holding a revival, who was it that spoke to him and said, "Go out into the desert Gaza"? Was it the Holy Spirit? No, sir. An Angel of the Lord spoke to him. Is that right? "Go out to the desert Gaza, and speak."
Look, how many believes that--that Peter had the Holy Spirit? Let's see. You believe he had the baptism of the Holy Spirit? When he was in prison that night, and down at John Mark's house, was having a prayer meeting for him, Who was it, like a light that shined in the window and opened the doors for him? Was it the Holy Spirit? The Angel of the Lord.

L-16 How many believes Paul had the Holy Ghost? Well, when he was out there on the ship fourteen days and nights, no moon, stars, and all hope was gone, he went down in the galley to pray, he come back up. Said, "Have a good courage, for the Angel of God, Whose servant I am, stood by me last night, saying, 'Fear not, Paul.'" Is that right? The Angel of the Lord...
The whole Book of Revelations was wrote by the witness of an Angel. "I, Jesus, have sent My Angel to testify of these things to write unto the Church." Is that right?
John fell down to worship the Angel. The Angel said, "Do it not." Now, it's not Joseph Smith. But He said... A true Angel won't stand to be worshipped. You know that. No, sir. He said, "Worship God."

L-17 And God still has Angels, and they visit the people... Not a worship of Angels. But Angelic Beings Who are attributes of God, sent forth to minister to the Church, through the people. Oh, my. How short we are of the real apostolic Church today of the blessing.
We people who claim to be there, who claim to have kissed the blessings of the rims of the cup of blessing, how short we come. How we bubble dance on top of the suds, and know not what the bottom is. That's true.
Now, friends, when I stand back here, I'm responsible, not to the audience, but to God. That's right. And my words must be... I know that I got many millions of people that listen and watch every word you say, so I must be, with all my heart, just as true to God as I can be. And I say today, that we've never scratched the surface. That's right. The Church ought to get down. My. We... It's reading--It's like reading and writing, and arithmetic.
Notice. Now, this Angel came, He was Gabriel. Now, God sends minor Angels (That's right.), perhaps the One comes here. And some people will actually puff their mind up with Angels and things, who they think they've seen, and things like that. That's just the counterfeit.

L-18 If a man has seen an Angel of God, and met God has commissioned--that Angel commissioned him from God, and It was sent from God, it'll bear record right down to the line, that it's the truth. You believe that? But if it doesn't, it isn't the truth. That's one thing you can depend on, "By their fruits you shall know them." That's true.
