<TITLE>10. Par 33-36</TITLE>L-33 Watch. These things... We could take many, many views of this. The Scripture is so inspired, that two thousand years, ministers, through the ages, who's in glory tonight waiting the glorious second coming of the Lord, has preached this text ten thousands of times. And if this world would spend a hundred billion years through the aeons of time, that Word would still be just as inspiring as It was the hour It was said, because It's God's Word. It has no end at all.
Radium, they claim has no end. I seen some time ago where some girls was painting these hands with radium, and with a brush, and she forgot and stuck it in her mouth and it killed her. And years later an analysis was taken of her skull. They could put the stereoscope on her skull; they could hear that radium still going whrr, whrr in the skull. It has no end.

L-34 God's inspired Word is Himself. You're no better than your word. If I can't take your word, you don't have to sign no papers. If I can't take your word I can't do business with you. That's the way with God; I take His Word. God said so. And it's eternal. And it's inspired. And every age it's new, and new, and new, and new; it has no old. And we're just going take one view tonight for a few moments. That was done to my opinion for this we might look at.

L-35 God was adopting His own Son. Now, in the Old Testament, many people know, and you who read the Bible, know that in the Old Testament there was a--a father who would have a child in his family. If it was a boy, well, that child as soon as it was born was a son. Now, I think there's where the people has made a great mistake in saying, "Well, we received the Holy Spirit; we're sons and daughters of God. That settles it." No, it doesn't, not if you know the Bible. See?
No, this boy, as soon as he was born a tiny baby, he was a son. But he had a tutor over him. And this tutor educated him and raised him. You know in the Bible in Ephesians and different places, and Galatians, how Paul speaks of it.
Now, this tutor kept word to the father how the son was progressing. And that's what the Holy Spirit's doing today in the church. That's why the church should be in order. The Holy Spirit's taking word back and forth. He's the Raiser, or the Tutor, of the church, the child or the individual, when it's born in the Kingdom of God.

L-36 Then if this tutor, in the Old Testament, told the father when that child was born, if he got to a place he was restless and careless, and run around, and didn't care for the father's business, he was always the son (That's true.), but he never did fall heir to the fellowship and to the--the powers of his father. But if the tutor said, "That's a good boy, and he's--he's zealous, and he's got wisdom, and he's trying to do the best that he can to keep things running good..." You follow me?
The Holy Spirit's bringing word to heaven how that you're progressing in your growth. If you go back out into the world, then God can't put much confidence in you. If you're up and down--this one say something, "Yeah, uh-huh, that's it." You're following little cliques in the church, you're fussing, fighting, gabbling, backbiting, how can the church ever go on? Now, I love you, but I've got to answer with you that day. See?
