<TITLE>11. Par 35-37</TITLE>L-35 [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... the seal of God. In Ezekiel the 9th chapter (you who's got your papers, marking it down,), Ezekiel the prophet was caught away in a vision, way years before, about fifty years, or sixty years before the coming... I don't mean that; I mean about five hundred year before the coming. And then when he did, he was caught away in a vision. And he saw things that wasn't right: men setting with their backs turned to the altar, and so forth. And he took him up into the city to the higher gate, and watch now. He said... And He showed him the city, and the iniquity and everything was going on in the city of Jerusalem.
Notice now He designated a city, a place. And He said in the city of Jerusalem where this was going on. And then he saw six men coming with slaughtering weapons in their hand. Listen, when man spurns mercy, there's only one thing left, and that's judgment. God's loving, not willing that any should perish. But if you do any perishing, you do it yourself. You do it by free moral agency; you do it by desire. God don't want you to, but you do it anyhow. You fight your way into it.

L-36 Notice, then, what he saw, six men coming with slaughtering weapons, there came forth the Man from the altar dressed in a white all over with a writer's inkhorn at His side: 3rd verse.
And notice, before the men could go through and slaughter in the city, he said, "Go ye first..." God's mercy first before judgment... I'm sure that's what America's hearing now, God's mercy presented to the people before judgment. Then when he seen this Man went forth, Writer with a inkhorn at His side. He said, "Go into the city and set a seal upon the forehead of those men in Jerusalem that sigh and cry for the abominations that's did in the city."
Otherwise, before the great destruction of A.D. 96, Titus sieging the walls of Jerusalem, the city, the Holy Spirit went forth first, the Man dressed in white with the markers, pencil on His side, to put a mark upon the men who sighed and cried for the abominations that was done in the city. God foretelling it, so they'd be sure to get ready.

L-37 I want to ask you something. If that same Angel came to the city, which was the Holy Spirit, dressed in white, like to His purity. If that Angel come to this city tonight and went through the Pentecostal churches, where in the world would he find men that sighs, and cries, and begs all night long in prayer for the abomination that's done in the city. Who would he mark? We're going to find out who's got the Holy Ghost pretty soon. Sighing and crying...
Why we become so brazen, so indifferent, have a little bitty prayer, maybe when we get up, and "God bless me, and Mary, and Martha and all the rest of the family." The rest of them do the best they can. And men and women on the street sinning... You know that's true. No more burden for the lost, just let them go any way, as long as we can proselyte a little bit and help our cause out, fix our denomination up so they could be the biggest, and get more people into the church, then we just satisfied. Brother, that's good old fashion castor oil, but it'll fix you up. That's right. Amen. I hope you get it.
