<TITLE>06. Par 18-21</TITLE>L-18 Well, we could take much time on that, but just to show you that it's truth. Jesus said, "No man can come to Me except My Father draws Him first." So man don't seek God; God seeks man. And God calls men by election (See?), fore--foreknowledge of God. Like when, Jesus Christ, when He was born, He was the Son of God. He couldn't help 'cause He was the Son of God. He was foreordained the Son of God. Before the world begin, He was the Son of God. And He was the woman's Seed from the garden of Eden that was to bruise the serpent's head. He had nothing to do with it. It was already planned out.
When Moses was born, he was a proper child, not because he was Moses, not because he had done something, but because God chose him before he was born.

L-19 John the Baptist, seven-hundred and twelve years before he was ever--ever in his mother's womb, Isaiah saw him, and said, "He's the voice of one crying in the wilderness. Prepare the way of the Lord and make His paths straight." Jeremiah 1:4, God told Jeremiah, said, "Before you was even conceived in your mother's womb, before you came from her belly," said, "I knew you, and sanctified you, and ordained you a prophet to the nations." What did Jeremiah have to do with that? Nothing. God did it. So it's God's sovereign grace that He does things. God has a Church that's going to appear without spot or wrinkle. He's already said that. That Church is foreordained.
I trust tonight that we're every one members of that Church. And here's the way I think you become a member: "By one Spirit we're all baptized into one body," and we're members of that Church. I believe that with all of my heart.

L-20 Now, Jesus said; here is His Words in Saint John 5:24. "He that heareth My words, and believeth on Him that sent Me, hath Everlasting Life, and shall not come into condemnation; but's passed from death to Life." Is that right? I wouldn't... That's His Word.
Now, "He." Didn't say the Methodist, he, the Baptist. "He" is a personal pronoun, means the individual. He, the Pentecost? He, the Full Gospel? No, just "He." See? "He that heareth My words and believeth on Him that sent Me hath (present tense) Everlasting Life, and shall not come into condemnation, but hath (past tense) passed from death unto Life." You believe that? That's the way you're saved, is by believing that and accepting it the same way. "Has everlasting Life, shall not come into condemnation, but's passed from death unto Life."

L-21 Now, now, for a personal experience now, before we read a little out of the Word and go right into the healing service. 'Cause we're running just a teeny bit late. And the next ten minutes I hope to be ready to start the prayer line, the Lord willing.
Now, as I make clear then, the doctrine, that I don't believe that, or discuss, or argue with people about their religious belief. If they believe anything, let them believe it. That's perfectly all right with me. As long as they've accepted Jesus Christ as their Saviour and been borned again of the Holy Spirit, it's my brother and sister. Whether they're--whether they're Methodist, Baptist, Pentecostal, Holiness, Oneness, Twoness, Threeness, Fourness, Forest Rain, Second Rain, Middle Rain, Latter Rain, all the Rains together, don't make any difference to me. I'm strictly interdenomination in believing we're all brethren. That's right. We are brethren. We different in ideas, but in purpose, we're one in Jesus Christ. That's right.
And that's why I've tried to keep my meetings absolutely, strictly, interdenominational. 'Cause it's a brotherhood. Just stand in the breach and try to say, "We are brethren." And when the whole ransomed Church of God sees that with one accord, the Millennium will be on. That's right.
