<TITLE>07. Par 21-23</TITLE>L-21 Let us pray. Heavenly Father, through our hearts will we see the Spirit moving among the simple people, just plain simple people. I'm afraid, Father, that many of us teachers has tried to make it too complicated for the people. In our great day of learning that we are in now, everything, every one's smart, educated, spent all their time studying books and so forth, and getting scholarships in school, or learning science, and literature, and mathematics, and left out the Holy Spirit. That's why we progress--progress on and the easterners filled with the Spirit. God, be merciful.
In the midst of all that, draw out a people that loves You, who believe You, Lord. Here they are putting handkerchiefs up here to be prayed over. They love You, Lord. We pray that each one of these handkerchiefs will be blessed, and God, that You'll visit the stockings...?... Just as it was with the Indian woman yesterday, may it be with these. May Your Holy Spirit, Which is now here, see that each one's healed, for we send it for that purpose in Jesus' Name. Amen.

L-22 When you hear me, friends, speaking of the Anglo-Saxon people, and the--and the differences in the white race of people, I'm not meaning the Church. That's the called out. See? In a few minutes I'm going to show you what that is. See?
What I'm speaking of that, is the nation over, the overall picture. The American people so, well fed, so aristocratically, with their doctors of divinity, with all their Ph.D's, and D.D.'s., LL.D's., and all that. They just look for that.
You see what they got theirself into? They just left the Spirit of God out. That's right. And that's where they got Him. They don't believe in the supernatural. They're just so for advanced in science, and education, and so forth, that they just--they just explain God all away: the Blood is all gone; the days of miracles is all gone, just explained it away. And there's nothing in the Church now, just like... Well, just like--just congregating together. Brother, it's a place of borned again believers meeting together in Christ.

L-23 Now, let's start, 'cause we don't have too long now. I want you to get back. Say, I forgot to ask. I suppose they'll be giving out prayer cards each evening, and maybe after the service this afternoon, and also tonight. And then we'll try if we get so many as we possibly can, and catch them up if possible, whatever way the Holy Spirit leads.
Now, in the Book of Ephesians... Paul wrote this book from Rome about A.D. 64. That would be about thirty-one years after Pentecost, while he was exiled there before being beheaded.
Not long ago, I was down to the place where this very epistle was written to the Ephesians. Setting there in that place, condemned souls, cells where that apostle stood there, in chains, and writing the letters to the churches and so forth, I thought, "Oh, my, the Holy Spirit moved into this place." Just gives you a feeling that you just--just in the Presence of God, there where they chopped his head off, dump him out in the sewer close. God only knows, but today he's immortal amongst men, these visions, the beloved apostle of the Gentile church Saint Paul.
