<TITLE>15. Par 131-135</TITLE>L-131 And then, the congregation, the only way they knowed... Now, if you went in there not dressed exactly that way, he'd a died in the--in the door. He never come out no more. He died in there, if he didn't go in dressed and anointed to go in. Now, the only way the congregation knowed whether he was right or not... Oh, my. The only way the waiting congregation knowed whether the high priest was right or not, they heard the noise of them bells. There was a noise in there, and that's the way they knowed whether he was right or not.
I wonder if that same thing works today. If you go by a church, and everything is just dead and still, I don't know. But he makes a noise, you know; he lets the people know that God's still on the throne, God answers prayer, people still have the Holy Spirit, shouting the praises of God, glorifying God, making a lot of noise. The congregation say, "Well, He must be around here. This is a live place." When we go into the holiest of holies and claim to be Christians, there's got to be some noise made. And I don't mean some--a lot of nonsense. I mean some real, true noise. That's right. Now, watch here.
 Having therefore, brethren, boldness to enter into the holiest by the blood of Jesus,
 By a new and living way,... (not the old law)... when he has reconciled for the... through the veil, that is to say, his flesh;
 And having an high priest over the house of God;
 Let us draw nigh with a true heart and with full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from... evil conscience, and our bodies washed with pure water.
 Let us hold fast the profession of our faith without wavering; (for he is faithful that has promised.)

L-133 That just takes it all out. Oh, my. I like this, but I guess we have to close. But when we walk up before God, let's not go, saying, "Well now, I just wonder if everything's all right. I--I..." Are you a Christian? "Well, I--I hope I am." That's no way to come.
Brother, believe the story. Accept it and be born again. Then walk up with pure faith, knowing this, that God has promised and God can't lie. "God promised me Eternal Life if I believed on His Son, Jesus Christ. I believed it; and He give me Eternal Life."

L-135 I made many mistakes, still make them, will always make them. But when I make them, the Holy Spirit tells me that's wrong. Then I repent right there, "Lord, forgive me. Didn't mean to do it. You help me now." And I walk right on, the same thing. 'Cause, just no sooner than it goes from my lips, "If we confess our sins, He's just to forgive them." Is that right? Hallelujah.
The devil say, "You know what? I'll tell you. You was supposed to go do a certain thing. You didn't do it. Uh-huh, you sinned, didn't you?"
I say, "I confessed it."
"Well, I tell you..."
"No, don't talk to me. No, sir. I have perfect faith in He Who told me. If I confess my wrongs, He'd forgive me. So I confessed it. Just go on away from me. I don't care nothing about you anyhow, so just keep moving on."
Walk boldly right on into it. If death lays there, that's all right; move right on into it with a perfect faith that God has promised that He'd raise you up at the last days. Yes, sir.
