<TITLE>25. Par 85-86</TITLE>L-85 If you walk into a little fellowship with the church again with that, again there's the seven golden candlesticks where the offering was only made and the sacrifice burned. You'll still have smoky days and rainy days, cloudy days, days when the lights was out, days when the lamps smoked up the experience.
You've seen Miss Jones over there, who was supposed to be a Christian, do something that wasn't right, and you say, "Oh, I wonder if there's anything to it." See? You still got your eyes on Miss Jones. See? You're still walking with artificial light. But the man who walked in behind that holiest of holies, it didn't matter whether the sun shined or not. It didn't matter whether the candles burn or not. He lived in the light of the Shekinah Glory, where the Pillar of Fire...?... under the interlocked wings of the Cherubim, and all the time he was walking in the perfect Light and fellowship. He didn't look to the outside, to the rainy days. There was never a rainy day, never a doubt, never a time that he was hungry for God, 'cause in him was stored up the manna of God, the Word built up unto a righteous foundation. He had not to worry no more. Certainly not. He was inside. The world was on the outside.

L-86 That's what the church needs today is an experience that'll take them into, under the Shekinah Glory, where all the curtains will fall and hide the man from the things of the world, till you live in the Presence of God, under His great power, under the interlocked wings of the Holy Ghost, and in the cross you'll stand. And the cross don't become a burden any more. It...?... up wings and flies away.
When you think of the burdens, every day the sun in shining. Oh, I love it. "I've cross the riven veil, oh, glory to the God. I'm on this altar sanctified, glory be to God." You've heard the old song. That's where a man lives in the Presence of the King. Oh, what a place to live.
You can have it, friends. It's for each one of you, if you're ready to shut yourself off from your associates and the friends of the world, if you're ready to walk in with Christ. Then I'll tell you, your eyes was on Christ; you're walking in the sunlight of God. There's no outside, no dim in the skies.
Here the sun is always shining,
Here the sky's always bright.
It gives no place for gloomy Christians to abide.
For my soul is filled with rapture,
As I labor, watch, and pray,
And we're living on the hallelujah side.
Every day, every time, every time you meet them, they got the victory in their heart, praising God whether the sun is a-shining or not. They're living in the Presence of the King. Don't you want that hidden life? Isn't there something about it that's real? Oh, my. Wished I had time, then you'll go out of here a different person.
Here not long ago, a few years ago, when they had slavery in the South. There's something about slaves. There's something about the Negro, that I--I like his humility.
