<TITLE>07. Par 28-31</TITLE>L-28 See that spirit of Cain? See the Spirit of God, the difference in them? God vindicating His Church by signs and wonders. Every time, every place in the Bible when God come into His Church, there was signs and wonders. There was a group that condemned it.
Now notice. Now, he tried to curse Israel, but God said, "Don't you curse what I've blessed." God was with Israel. Hallelujah. God's still proving His Church. When God is in His Church, there's healing, there's supernatural, there's visions, there's power, there's joy, when God's in His Church. When man organizes it, God goes out of it. You see it?
Look at this. We're coming through the Genesis up into the Old Testament.

L-29 Now, let's go into the New Testament. Now, we're in the New Testament. There was a Pharisee, very religious, great teachers. And God sent His Son; He was a teacher, and He preached the Gospel. But they hated Him just like Cain hated Abel. But what was the difference? They were both teaching, but this group said, "The days of miracles is past."
This group of Jesus had--had God with them. They had healing. They had miracles. They had visions. They had joy. Why, when He come into the temple, they screamed so loud, the Pharisees said, "Make them hold their peace."
Jesus said, "If they hold their peace, the rocks will immediately cry out." Something has to happen when the Lord God comes into His camp. Hallelujah. God is here. Watch where the Spirit moves. That's why we got persecution, is because God is a vindicating that He's here. Hallelujah.

L-30 Notice, they persecuted Jesus; they made fun of Him. He was a prophet. He was more than a prophet. He was the King of prophets. He was the God of prophets. He was none other but God Himself. And He prophesied. He healed the sick, and claimed He done nothing except the Father showed Him.
One day when they had Him caught; they tied a rag around His eyes, and they hit Him on the head, said, "Now, you vision seer, you tell us who hit you, and we'll believe You."
Jesus said, "Let them alone. They are blind leaders of the blind. And if the blind leads the blind, won't they fall in the ditch?" That it is, they're religious but deny the power.

L-31 The whole book of the New Testament went the same way. There went the orthodox church on, coming out of Genesis, out of Cain, through Moab on into the Pharisees of the New Testament.
Here come Abel, through Moses, through Jesus, living on, through the apostles.
When Jesus came, He said, "These things that I do shall you do, for I am going to have to die, but I'll raise up on the third day. I'll be with you even in you to the end of the world."
The Bible said, "Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever." He was the One that was in Abel. He was the One that was in Moses. He was the One in His Son. He was the One in the apostles. And He is the One here tonight, the same Jesus, yesterday, today, and forever. Oh, praise to His Name. How wonderful. He's a vindicating His church, showing Himself among His people, signs and wonders.
There's Cain, come through Moab, come through the Pharisees, and here today in the form of religion. Watch the great Saint Paul looking down to Zurich, to the end of the world.
