<TITLE>13. Par 48-52</TITLE>L-48 Just reminds me, brother, I got a whole scrip bag full of honey here this afternoon, and I'm going to put it on the rock Christ Jesus, and you sick sheep go to licking on it, and I'm telling you you'll find Christ. Amen. I ain't going to put it on a church now, I'm going to put it where it belongs: on Christ Jesus where your healing power and salvation belongs. And you sick sheep go to licking right fast and see if you don't get well right quick. On the Rock, Christ Jesus, they lick, lick, lick, lick, and the more they lick... There's something about a rock that's got a cure to it.

L-49 In old times they used to have a mad stone. And every time someone would get dog bit, they'd--mad dog bit, they would take this fellow and stick him against the stone. If he stuck, he got well. If he didn't stick, he died. I know, a Rock, the Rock of Ages to every sin sick or physical sick person can come to that Rock of Ages and stick against It, hang on to It, feel It. God's under obligation to bring you to the healing virtues of Calvary flows through that Rock Christ Jesus today that'll heal every sick person there is (Yes), make every sinner whole, bring joy to the downcast, on Christ Jesus.
What we need today, brother, around this country is not a religious gathering; we got so many of them through the country now. A certain evangelist passed through the country not long ago, very known, well known among nominal churches. He went to Boston or a place up there where he said, "Within six weeks time they had twenty thousand converts."

L-50 A group of laymen and ministers went back to find the cards and about two months afterwards they couldn't find twenty that was stuck out. Why? They didn't go far enough. They didn't stick to it. That's what's the matter. What we need today is a good old fashion Saint Paul's revival, and the Bible Holy Ghost preached back in the church again. That's right, my brother, sister.
Reminds me of when my brother and I here. One day we were out on a creek; we were little boys. And we found one of these old terrapins. You know, what they are here in Indiana: Funny looking fellow, you know, the way he swings his legs and walks. And we thought that was the funniest thing, so we went up to him. He said, "Whew." Pulled right back up in his shell.

L-51 Puts me in mind of a lot of people who don't believe in Divine healing. Let the campaign come in the city, say, "Whew, don't you go out there. Ain't nothing to that bunch of holy-rollers." See. There it is.
So I said, "Wait, I will make him move." And I cut me a limb off a tree and I really put it on him. Never done him a bit of good. You can't beat it into them, just won't take it. I said, "I will fix him up." I took him down to the creek; I stuck him down in the water. Just a few bubbles come up and that was all of it.
Brother, you can baptize them this a way, that way, head forward, back up and down three times, four times, what you want to. They go down a dry sinner, come up a wet one, still a sinner.

L-52 You know, what I done? I built me a little fire and set the old boy on it. He moved then. What we need today is not church joining and arguing about baptism, just the Holy Ghost and fire that'll make any church move. Get the Holy Spirit back in the church and the apostles and teachers and so forth, into their places, and let the Holy Ghost go to raining on a church like that and see what takes place. Signs and wonders and miracles will follow it; sure it will.
I know, you think I'm crazy. You're going to call me a holy-roller after this so you might as well get started now. Maybe I am. But if you felt like I do standing here, you'd be doing the same thing.
Notice, God promised to bless His people. How that I think of that manna, before we leave it again. It was a type. All the things of the Old was a type of the New. And I see there where the Holy Spirit rained the manna down. That was to last them, that manna never ceased through the entire journey.
