<TITLE>12. Par 41-43</TITLE>L-41 Watch here. in the next chapter over here in Hebrews, it said, "The wor..." the next couple of verses below here, "For if the worshiper once purged, would have no more conscience of sin. And He by His own sacrifice has perfected forever those that are sanctified."
Perfected for how long? Forever. Then what is the Holy Ghost, friend? We've allowed It to too many things. You Lutherans, oh, my, you think 'cause they join the Lutheran church, "The just shall live by faith," Luther say's, "We got it." But they found out they didn't. You Methodist, when you got sanctified, and shouted, and clapped your hands, and run up-and-down the aisle, you thought you had it. But come to find out, you didn't.
The Pentecostals, when they could speak in tongues or dance in the Spirit, they thought they had it. But they found out they didn't. That's right. All those things are all right, but that ain't it. It's the Person, the Holy Spirit Himself, the resurrected Christ.

L-42 And when you lay your hands by faith upon God's accepted and provided Sacrifice, which was absolutely perfect... There's the body of Christ. And out of Adam's side come a rib that made his bride. And out of the side of Christ came the Blood, water, Spirit for His Bride.
And how do we get into that body? "By one Spirit we're all baptized into one Body." And Romans 8:1, "There is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus, that walk not after the flesh but after the Spirit." They're like Abraham; they call things which were not as though they were, because they are dead to the things of the world and alive again in Christ Jesus by the baptism of the Holy Ghost. Amen.

L-43 That might've had hay seeds on it and sassafras, but it'll save you as sure I stand in the pulpit. Amen. Notice, "The worshiper once purged has no more sac--no more desire of sin." No more conscience; the word "conscience" is "desire." Look and see if that ain't right. Conscience is what's in it, in there making your desires. Your conscience is to do it, and your conscience is not to do it; it's your desire.
So then, if the worshiper, under the law, could not be purged, because that the lamb was only a shadow, and he went away with the same desire, yet it was speaking correctly to the right Lamb coming... And then, when God sent His Lamb, and He died, and the worshiper then coming, putting his hands by faith upon the bleeding locks of the Lord Jesus, and can in your heart appreciate that He was the only thing that could ever come and redeem you, and you'd be lost and going to hell... And then to appreciate His love for you when you were unlovable, appreciate His foreknowledge of you, that you'd have a heart to do it, and appreciate His leading of the Holy Spirit to bring you to that place He puts it... And you lay your hands upon Him by faith, and renounce your own life as a sinner, and accept His Life instead, the Blood of Jesus Christ then cleanses you. And the Life that was in the Blood Cell of Christ, which was none other than God Himself, the Holy Spirit, comes back into your life, and coincides with your body, and you act a walk a Christian life till the day you leave the world. And the devil couldn't touch you if he had to. Amen.
