<TITLE>15. Par 64-68</TITLE>L-64 And with our heads bowed, I wonder if there's someone here this morning now. I want your level, honest, truthful... No matter what you've done, no matter how many starts you've made, or how long you belonged to church, are you sincere from the depths of your heart of this, that knows that the things of the world has passed from you, to know that day after day and year after year, it continues on, your anchor holds. They's somebody yonder foreshadowing at the end of the road where this great kink will be drawed out. There's Somebody there tugging at your heart, knowing that someday you'll be lifted up.

L-65 If that's not gone from your heart today, friend, fellow citizens, pilgrims, poor little flock, God bless your heart. See you setting here gray-haired and stoop-shouldered, see poor little kids who maybe had to miss meals, and would I stand here and say anything wrong to you that... Well, God forbid. I'd be a... I ought to get down and repent before I'd even preach. I love you and that's with real Christian love.
Be honest now with the Holy Spirit. Has all those things passed from you, or has Satan deceived and you're just living a halfway life?

L-66 Sometimes you think, well, all right. Next times, why, you... "Well, I don't know." And things happen that you know; and if that's your condition and this morning you want to surrender it all to Christ, remember what He said. "He that heareth My words and believeth on Him that sent Me hath (right now) Everlasting Life." Judgment's over. From that time on the thing will be dead. If you really accept it, it'll prove itself. Now, look. Don't be deceived.

L-67 You remember here long years ago when we had the church in order. (I'm talking to you. You're praying, heads bowed.) Remember when we had the church in order, when a message was given in prophecy, or in tongues and interpretation, when we wrote it down and laid it up here on the platform, witnessed by three men? I gave the message from the platform. If it didn't come to pass, you had an evil spirit among you. You come up here and made it right.
If a person done what was wrong, a sister or brother seen them doing wrong, they went to them. When they come in church, got them by the arm, went back here in a little room, said, "Brother, I seen you at the wrong place. I'm not going to say it before the church, 'cause I love you. You were wrong. Let's us pray now." See?

L-68 Now, you be honest with yourself. If the love of Christ is in your heart above everything else, God bless you. You're all right, but if it isn't, don't be deceived. Those spirits are deceitful as they can be. They deceive you.
That's what the one done to Eve, told her a whole lot of new truth. "Oh, yes, God has said. Uh-huh." But there's a little flaw in it. That's what... That's what broke us this morning, we see the little flaw in the chain. That's what does all the trouble.
Brother, if it's not running perfectly with the heart of God, will you raise your hand now to God and say, "God, by this I really want to be right." Nobody look, but me. Raise up your hand. God bless you, lady. Someone else. God bless you. God bless you, and you, and you, and you, you. God bless you.
