<TITLE>18. Par 59-61</TITLE>L-59 Now, a ordinary man can walk a good... Why, I patrolled for about seven years walking thirty miles every day. And then in them days, you didn't ride in automobiles like we ride today, so they could probably easy go thirty miles, or take twenty-five miles. But they... Four day's journey would be a hundred miles back. And then he lifted up his head and saw the mountains far off. And then when he got close to the mountains... Watch, this is sovereign grace here, watch him. He said to his servants; he said, "Now, you stay here while the lad and I go yonder to worship. And the lad and I will return." Oh, my. Oh, my. "The lad and I..."
"How you going to do it? You're taking him up there to kill him. But how are you going to do it?"
"It's not my business to figure it out." would say Abraham. "God gave the promise, and I received him as one from the dead. And God's able to raise him up from the dead." Amen. That's the children of Abraham. That's the hope they have in Him tonight.

L-60 So they took the little fellow, put the wood on his back, very type of Christ (we're hitting just the high spots now), and he walked up the hill. And when he got up top of the hill, way up in the top mountain there, where he's going to offer the sacrifice, little Isaac, he said, "Father?" Said, "Here is the sacr... Here is the wood, and here is the altar, but where is the lamb, the sacrifice for the altar?"
And Abraham with trembling voice, the old man looked around to him and said, "My son, God will provide for Himself a sacrifice."
He took his own son, bound his hands. Look, a double proof of our salvation tonight. God gave him a double... We don't have... God proved it twice through Abraham and swore to it with His own hands (That's right.), that He keeps His covenant.
We don't have nothing to worry about, if God called us into His loving grace. Brother, I'm telling you, if you've ever been born again of the Spirit of God, you ought to be the happiest person in the world, 'cause you have Eternal Life, Everlasting Life, cannot perish. Amen. Your sowed with the incorruptible Seed of God.

L-61 If a seed goes in the ground, a grain of wheat, it cannot produce anything else but a grain of wheat. So if you go around, say, "Well, praise the Lord, I--I've been saved. I've got the Holy Ghost." And living any kind of a life, you better get back to the altar of God again, 'cause the incorruptible Seed of God cannot be one thing. You cannot be a wheat and a cocklebur at the same time. You've got to either be a wheat or a cocklebur. You all got cockleburs down here? All right, greenbriar then, ever what you want to call it, some other weed. You see? 
You can't be a weed and a wheat at the same time. If you got the spirit in you of the life of wheat, you'll produce wheat. If you've got the spirit in you of the life of a cocklebur, it'll be a cocklebur. And if the Holy Ghost is in you, you'll believe God, love God, and act like a Christian. That's right. If it isn't, you'll know them by the fruits they bear.
Oh, what we need today is a good old time Holy Ghost revival. What we need today is an old time shaking again of the power of God, a moving of the mulberry bushes to go forward to battle again. God's giving the moving, if people will just listen to it and believe it.
