<TITLE>09. Par 36-38</TITLE>L-36 Notice. Oh, I think of it. Why can't the dove eat those dead carcasses? The dove is the only bird there is that doesn't have a gall. There's no bitterness about a dove. She couldn't digest it. And there's something about a man or woman that ever tasted of Jesus Christ, can't taste the world no more. You'll spit it out every time. There you are. Both of them can fly. Both of them's got churches. Both of them can set on the roost. But there's a difference in them, like it was in Cain and Abel: this side Cain, this side Abel.
Look at these spirits growing on. Oh, how they come through Esau, Jacob. Why, Esau was far a better gentleman than Jacob. Jacob, if you excuse it, and God forgive me, was a little shyster. Yes. What was he? A little old lazy fellow, but he was chosen of God. God done the electing in choosing Jacob. Esau taken care of his old blind daddy, and feed the cattle, and so forth like that; but he despised his birthright; and Jacob believed in it. Hallelujah. There's the church today. One said, "Oh, that new birth stuff, that there holy roller stuff, there's nothing to it." Some of them love it; the others despise it. I'm glad to get it. Amen. I believe in a new birth, being filled with the Holy Ghost. Without it, you're gone, brother.

L-37 Look. Now we could bring them up through what a beautiful type of Israel. When they came out of Egypt, they were on they're way up into the promised land. They were journeying out there in tents. They come up to the country of Moab. Moab, where did it spring from? From Lot's daughter's child by her father.
Now, the Moabites is not unbelievers. They were worshippers of Jehovah God. Certainly they was. They even had a fine preacher over there by the name of Balaam, a prophet. But like a whole lot of hireling prophets, was money crazy (Amen.), selling their gifts. They're doing it today: fine gifted things out in the world to make money. It's a disgrace. Compromising, borderline, one day in the world, the next day in the church, you can't do that. You got to sell out, be borned again. Move plumb inland as far as you can go; stay off the borderline.

L-38 Notice, but here they come. Moab seen them coming. So, Jo... Israel, by Moses, sent some men on; said, "Ask Moab, our brother, if we could pass through the land."
Balak the king said, "No, you're not passing through my land." He refused them. "I don't want that bunch of people in my place. Keep them down there in the auditorium. Send them over to Jack Moore's." All right. "But you're not going to pollute our bunch of people with your doctrine." There you are: same thing, same spirit. God takes His man but never His Spirit. The devil takes his man but never his spirit. The same religious men that condemned Jesus Christ, priests, loyal men... A man standing in the pulpit today, having a form of godliness, denying the power thereof, them priests is dead but that spirit still lives. Look at it.
And they come up there, said, "No, they're not passing through our land." So he called the preacher from over at the seminary, the pastoral, and said, "Come over and curse this people for me." How in the world you going to curse what God has blessed?
