<TITLE>03. Par 23-32</TITLE>L-23 Now, we must prove all things by the Scripture. Not what... If It's contrary to my faith, and yet the Scripture says so, the Scripture's right and I'm wrong. See? The Scripture's always right; and the only way you can do anything, is come back to the Scripture. Now, is that true? Now, I--I like to hear you say, "amen" when you believe It. You see? "Amen" means, "so be it." Now, now we cannot...

L-24 Someone was asking me the other day, well, even this day, about a certain person that was a--a successful person in a certain thing that they were doing. And said, "Oh, Brother Bill, the Lord must be in that."
I said, "He can't."
"Oh," said, "they're getting souls saved."
I said, "It can't be. Because, if it is, it's contrary to His Word. Then God isn't going to say one thing and then say another thing. He's going to tell one thing all the way through." See, God can't lie. God's infallible, His Words are. In order to be God, He has to be sovereign. You see? And He has...

L-26 And now you say, "Well, don't you think if--if God did a certain thing here, even though His Word does say...?"
I said, "No. The Bible said, 'He that takes away or adds to anything that's in this Book, will be taken out of the--of the Book of Life, for him.'"
So there's the reason. Always, by everything (not by experience, or not by what it looks like), but by what God's Word says. Now, the New Testament, Paul said, "Though we or an angel from heaven would come and teach any other thing than that which you have heard," that's Galatians 1:8, if you want to put it down, "let him be, unto you, accursed."

L-29 Now, therefore, let's go back now and get the beginning and find out how sure this Word is. Now, bear this in mind. And as we glean through this Bible, you'll see that the cogs of God's wheel turns slow but sure. It may look like it's a million miles away, but she's grinding right up there all the time, and one of these days it'll be here. Now, no matter what... You just take any of the...

L-30 Wish we had time now to have about a six or eight-month Bible study here, to take the Book of Genesis and never leave Genesis. And I believe, within the next three, three or four weeks of studying in Genesis, and see how every thread of it goes right down through the Bible, every Word of it. Now, I've had two years I've been studying in Genesis now, myself, and still I'm on my second turn through it and not even halfway through it again. Why, it's been, I've taken weeks just on two or three verses. And you find out that in that seed...

L-31 If you want to know what kind of a crop you're going to have, or what this is growing up in the field, go back to find out what the seed is. The seed will produce just exactly what it is. It'll produce its kind. A corn will bring a corn; a cocklebur, a cocklebur; a wheat, a wheat. Whatever it is, it will produce just what the seed was.

L-32 And all these cults and uprises, and all these things and isms today, by God's grace it's, every one, written in Genesis, where it had its beginning back there, and it's just got another name. But you watch the working of the spirit in that day, and watch how it's working today, and you'll see it's the very same thing. And, friends, some of it is striking. You'd be surprised to know that some of it is in the highest ecclesiastical realms.
