<TITLE>06. Par 63-73</TITLE>L-63 Now, you can't stand off like this, outside, say, "Oh, I, I don't know whether It's for me or not. That might be for days gone by." Just get the Holy Ghost first, and watch what Divine healing means to you then.
Look what a heartfelt religion means to you then, when you've got the Holy Spirit here to cook the Lamb as It comes. Amen. That's right. Cook the Lamb first. And you have to have fire to cook It with. It--it should be roasted. Oh, my, that's when It's good. Roast It, it just burns out all the...

L-65 I was standing here, not long ago by a big smelter, and I noticed how hot that fire was, and it just cooked and cooked and cooked. And as the hotter it got, the--the dross in the metals, in the gold, all come to the top, and they skimmed it off. And they'd heat the fire a little hotter in this smelter, and then when this would boil more, they'd get some more different stuff, pyrite and stuff, out of it.
The first come up was the dirt, like dirt and mud. The next come up was ores like, oh, something no good: some quick silvers, and all these things, they come up, and skim that off. Went on down, right down, and the last thing they took out of it was pyrite. That's fool's gold.

L-67 You know there's a lot of things in people that try to fool one another when you're a Christian, or acting like it, anyhow. See? But you just let the Holy Ghost go to boiling everything out, take--takes all the fool's gold out of you too.
Fool's gold, many people go out West and they find some of it, and they think, oh, they struck a gold mine. It shines better than gold does. But it's fool's gold, hasn't got no value to it.
And now, they cook that, and they skim it all off, and just keep cooking it and cooking it, until it's pure gold, boiled down to nothing but one hundred percent gold.
And that's the way God does in His Church: pours the Holy Spirit on It, and cooks down in there till He throws out all the worldliness, and the differences, and the selfishness, and all this, till He just boils it out of every individual that will come to Him. Amen.

L-71 Now, then, you can eat it. Here is another beautiful thought here, on the--on the 11th verse.
And thus shall you eat it; with your... (listen to this) loins girded... (I like that)... shoes on your feet,... staff in your hand; and ye shall eat it in haste; it's the LORD's passover.
I like that. While you're eating, be ready to go. That's the issue.

L-73 Let's turn over to Ephesians, about the 6th chapter of Ephesians, and look in here what Paul said about getting the Church ready: 6th chapter of Ephesians, beginning at the 14th verse of the 6th chapter.
Stand therefore, having your loins girded about with truth,... having on the breastplate of righteousness;
... your feet shod with the preparation of the gospel of peace;
And above all things, take the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench... the fiery darts of the wicked.
And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
See, Paul dressing up a man for the battlefield, for the march.
God, in beginning of delivering of Israel, He said, "Now, you ought to get ready for the march. When you come under the blood, put on your shoes. Gird up your loins. Get your staff in your hand and get ready for the call." I like that.
A man now, when he comes into Christ, he gets his Gospel shoes on to preach the Gospel, the helmet of salvation on, the breastplate of righteousness; girds up his loins. There's a...
