<TITLE>10. Par 31-34</TITLE>L-31 Now, them other things is all right, but you can't pin your finger to anything. It's the Holy Spirit's work, the Person, not a thought. When He ('He's' a personal pronoun.)--when He the Holy Spirit has come... The Holy Spirit is the Personage of the Lord Jesus Christ, that we accept into our hearts, that brings a new different attitude, look out and everything to life. Amen.
No matter, you might join churches, shake hands with pastors, put your name on the books; all those things are good. You might... Paul said, "Though I speak with tongue of men and angels; though I have wisdom and understand all the knowledge of God; though I give my body to be burned as a sacrifice; though I do all these things, I'm still nothing." That's right.
But he said, "Where there's tongues, they shall cease; where there's knowledge, it'll vanish; where there's prophecies it'll fail; but when love has come, it'll endure forever."

L-32 Now, what the church, the Pentecostal church needs tonight, along with the other churches, is a good old fashion baptizing of the Holy Ghost, and love that will make you straighten up, and get together, and come together, like brothers and sisters in the Lord Jesus Christ, and break down these walls of partition. Amen
Where there is love, God is love. "Love suffers long; love is not provoked; love is not puffed up." When you get puffed up, love's gone. And where there's all this malice, and strife, and wars, and envy, and malice against one another, brother, God just moves out, that's all. And it's a fact; you can see it. Amen.
Now, you've got the right road, brother. You've got the right path, but what you need to do is come back together again, for an old fashion Azusa Street meeting. Where the men and women will come together in all denominations, break down their barriers, and recognize one another as brothers and sisters in the Lord Jesus Christ. Amen.

L-33 Well, all of us being brethren, Adam our first father sold us into slavery of sin, nothing we had to do with it. When you're borned in this world, you are a sinner when you're borned. The Bible said, "We're borned in sin, shaped in iniquity, come to the world speaking lies." When you're born without Christ you haven't even got a chance: Nothing you can help; you were sold by our father, Adam. Adam sold the human race out. And by nature...
I know there's a teaching going around that--up in my country and different parts of the country, that if a little baby's borned of a Holy Ghost parent, the baby's saved, and if it's borned of a sinful parents, and it dies, than it's lost. Oh, brother, if that ain't tommyrot. I know you think I'm kinda rude tonight, but I got to get rude, once in a while.

L-34 But I don't mean to hurt you; I mean that we get this straightened out. You'll see one of the greatest revivals that ever swept the country. That's right. We get back to the starting place, begin right. There's only one thing to do; that's come back, if you see you hit the wrong road, make back-tracks, go back and see where you started from.
Man usually, when he's borned in the Kingdom of God, his face set right straight towards Calvary. Now, if he's just a little bit emotional, he will go off on fanaticism. If He's just a little bit his shrewd education, he will get so starchy, that he sets over on this side. That's right. But the true Church of the living God, goes right down to the center of the highway, preaching a sane solid Gospel, calling from both sides. Amen.
That's what we need today, a church that he wouldn't be ashamed for anyone to come into. It's perfectly governed by the Holy Spirit, no fanaticism, no starchy, just a good warm church, filled with God's Spirit. Watch that, the good solid Gospel teaching pastors. That's what we need. Amen. God help us to have it. God wants us to have it.
