<TITLE>10. Par 32-34</TITLE>L-32 Here sometime ago, an old Methodist minister and I were setting having a little ice cream together. And the 4-H club come on the--a radio broadcast. And they were talking about a machine that they had perfected. There might be members of the 4-H club setting here now.
And then, they said, they'd perfected a machine that could turn out corn so perfect. That you could get a handful of the sack that was--that the machine perfected, and a handful out of the sack that was growed in the field, and they look so perfectly. Mix them together, and put them in the laboratory, and you couldn't tell them apart, both of them will make the same kind of corn bread, corn flakes. Ever... The same amount of calcium, the same amount of moisture, everything, and the one's in the other one, just perfect. And the only way that you'd ever be able to separate them, and know which was which, bury them, and they'll both rot. But the one that man made is done, but the one that God made has got a germ of life, and it lives again.
I said, "Brother Spurgeon, you better hold my hand, 'cause I might embarrass you." I said, "That makes the Spirit of God come to a believer." A man might live in church, professing to be a Christian, and everything. If he hasn't got the germ life in him, he will lay there at resurrection. But that man who's got life, born again, will rise as sure as Jesus rose from the dead: got to. Oh, this half-way, starved-to-death life.

L-33 What's the matter with the church today, it's in a anemia condition. It oughtn't to be that way, but it's predicted for it to be that way. And it'll have to be: the lukewarm believers and so forth in the last days, cold, church professors.
"The Holy Spirit spoke expressly in the latter days, some would depart from the faith, and giving heed to seducing spirits, and doctrines of devils, and they'd be heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God."
How the delights of the picture show would--would fill this place three times. "Lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God. Truce breakers, false accusers, and despisers of those that are good."
Oh, you say, "That's communist." No, it's not. It's Christians, believers: "Having a form of godliness," going to church, and putting their name on the book, and everything. "Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof, from such turn away," the Bible said. That's right. Said, it would be in the last days. We got to have it.

L-34 Now, when Miriam and Moses and the Israelites had overcome, then God promised to supply everything they had need of in the journey. When God makes a promise, God will keep His promise.
Moses, he didn't care what Pharaoh had said. Neither did his parents fear what the Pharaoh's orders was. Moses knew, and Abraham knew, the prophet of old. Abraham was--knew that God was able to keep that which He had promised. So he wasn't a scared to say when he was seventy-five years old, and Sarah was going to have a baby when she was sixty-five. And when he was a hundred and Sarah ninety, he still giving God praise, getting stronger all the time.
