<TITLE>13. Par 132-141</TITLE>L-132 You know the day today. I went here not long ago to a place. And said, "We're going to have communion." And they took an old piece of loaf bread, and cut it up like this, in pieces, and passed it out amongst a bunch of people there, and everybody in the church taking communion. Brother, that's not right. Your heart's got to be right with God before you take communion.
Isaiah prophesied of it in the 28th chapter and the 8th verse, if you want to look it up. He said, "The tables are full of vomit, all filthiness and uncleanliness everywhere." He said, "Who can I teach doctrine? Who can I give understanding? Those that are weaned from the breast." Our little old baby's back here playing along. When we ought to be teaching somebody else the powers of God, we're still fussing about whether it's right to do this or that. "Tables full of vomit."

L-134 I can't stop there. Let's move on; I got to get to the place. All right.
They had their armors on, their girdles; they marched out. They come right straight up to the Red Sea. Pharaoh was glad to let them go. And when they got up to the Red Sea, there they seen his army come, pursuing them. And there they was camped right there, the mountains and deserts on this side, Pharaoh's army coming this way, the Red Sea before them. But God's path led through the Red Sea. As long as I know His path's leading; that's all I care about just keep on walking. Said, "Moses (Hallelujah.), take that stick: walk down towards that water." Amen.
"What's going to happen, Lord?"
"That's none of your business. Just keep walking." Amen.
Preach the Gospel, Tom Merideth and the rest of you guys. "What's going to happen?" It's none of your business; just preach on. Give God praise.

L-137 Here they go, moving down there. One of the writers said that God was in that Pillar of Fire, "And He looked down through with angry eyes." And said, "When He did, the Red Sea got scared and begin to move back, and Israel passed through on dry land." Never even got their feet muddy.
Well, these guys come along, said, "We're just as human as they are, and we worship the same as they do, so we'll do it." And when they got out there, they found out they couldn't make it.
And that's what's going to happen one of these days, brother, when the separating time comes. And to you, you lukewarm church member, that you're trying to impersonate Christianity, one of these days you're going to try to follow that Holy Ghost band, and you'll find out your wheels will come off out yonder in the muddy somewhere. That's right. There--there was ten virgins went to meet the Lord, five of them were wise, and five foolish. Put Oil in your lamp, trim her bright, one of these days they're going up. And there was weeping and wailing, and gnashing of teeth.

L-140 And those uncircumcised Egyptians, why couldn't they make it? They wasn't circumcised. They wasn't in the covenant. If they'd been circumcised believers, God would've had to recognize them the same as He recognized Israel. Glory. Oh, I wished I was twice my size right now. I feel religious; I really do.
Notice, they were uncircumcised. They wasn't in the covenant, though they were men. They were dressed just as nice, and better. They lived just as good. They had better homes. They was in a better class of people, worldly thinking. They went to church the same as the rest of them did. They'd followed right along. Don't tell me they didn't know anything about God. Joseph had already told them and spread the news down there four hundred years before. Sure, they did. But they thought, "That bunch of fanatics, we can do anything they can." But they failed. God only recognized the circumcision. There they went.

L-141 No wonder little old David stood, said, "You mean to tell me that the armies of the living God will stand here, let that uncircumcised Philistine defy the armies of the living God?" He said, "Put me on something; let me go." Yes, sir. Give us some more Davids.
