<TITLE>03. Par 1-2</TITLE>E-1h      And now, let's bow our heads just a few moments now, while we speak to this great Master of Life. Almighty and all sufficient God, the Author of Everlasting life, the Giver of every good gift, we're looking to Thee today, for the exceedingly, abundantly, Thy Presence may be with us and pour out of Your Spirit upon Your Word. Anoint it, and may it go into them hearts where it's supposed to go, where You intend it to go. And whatever it is You wish for me to say, just speak, Lord, and I will do as You say.
Now, Father, I realize that someday, that every person here, we've all got to stand in Your Presence, give an account of our lives, and give an account for what we did with what was told us in this world. Now, Lord, I pray that the Holy Spirit will make the Word of God so plain this afternoon, that when we go there at that day, that we'll ha--when we answer according to Your Word, that our conscience will be clear that we have did just what You said do.
Now, may the Holy Spirit take the things of God and deliver them right into every heart, right where they ought to be, and may, when the service is over, may we say like them coming home from Emmaus, "Did not our hearts burn within us because of His Presence," for we ask it in His Name, Thy Son. Amen.

L-1 [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] ...shortest books in the Bible, the Book of Jude. It was written A.D. 66, thirty-three years after Pentecost, believed to be thought of as Jude the... he calls hisself the servant, yet he was the brother (foster) of Jesus Christ.
His brothers first didn't believe on Him, but after a while they did. And Jude is a prophet. For his little short letter here, which was recognized by the Church to be inspired... He was a prophet. And he was foretelling here and correcting the Church.
And it was written to all the churches throughout the age, and I believe specifically to this Church of this age.

L-2 Now, the Church is always the called out, the borned again peoples. Whether they're Methodists, Baptists, Presbyterians, whatever they are, it's the called out of God.
Now, we want to look right straight into His Word and read some of this here and see what He would say about it, see how He'd speak to our heart. And I want every person now, to be just... Let yourself forget about the washing tomorrow and the things we got to do. We're here for one purpose: worship God. We're here to learn something. And I'm here to learn something. And I'm looking to the Holy Spirit to teach me something this afternoon, teach me how to be a better man, teach me how to be a better minister, and through me, teach you, how to be a better Christian. All of us together, be a better Church, that's what we're here for. And the Word of God is for instruction and reproof, that a man might stand before God blameless. If we follow the blueprint well, we'll stand blameless.
