<TITLE>15. Par 56-59</TITLE>L-56 That was a great hero act. But oh, that wasn't nothing, friend. Till one day when Adam's race was all backed into a corner. The children of Adam, God had sent them laws and prophets, and they wouldn't keep it; they wouldn't listen to them. And they were all backed in a corner with sicknesses, and diseases, and superstitions, and doubt, and fears. There was One, stepped out of heaven, the Son of God. He said, "I'm going to earth to give my life for Adam's fallen race."
God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son. And when He come to earth, He looked around and seen where man's most fear was... [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... greatest of his fears was death. Men, as long as he's healthy and fine, he can blaspheme and run around. But let him come down to that dying hour. There he was. And He found the thickest of the spears, and He rushed out into death and gave His life as a sacrifice, displaying the love of God for Adam's fallen race.

L-57 What did He leave back for we preachers? He said, "Go up down yonder to the--Jerusalem and wait there until you're endued with power from on high. And when the Holy Ghost has come upon you, you'll be witnesses of Me, both in Jerusalem, Judaea, Samaria, Saskatoon, and the uttermost parts of the earth." And with the weapon that He's left us, He told us to dash into sickness and to sin, and these signs shall follow them that believe.
Men and women, it's time that we picked up the weapon that our Hero of God's love left us, and dash out yonder and fight against ignorance, and superstitions, and formality, and break down the walls of the enemy and display the real gallant love that we believe in, God and His Word, till sickness is healed, and devils are routed, and blind see, and deaf hear. God help me to do it as long as I got a breath left in my body.

L-58 Display the love that I believe for the Man Who died for me. May you do the same, as we bow our heads a moment for prayer.
Lord Jesus, there's no love like the love of God. There could not be nothing ever match it. When we were helpless and without hope, You died in our stead. "God so loved us that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth on Him should not perish, but would have Eternal Life."
I ask that Your Divine grace and You Presence of the Holy Spirit... As Arnold Von Winkelried said, the hero of Switzerland, "Fight with what you've got." Now, Lord, you've not given sticks and stones to fight with, but the blessed Holy Spirit. In the meekness and gentleness of Christ, in the power of His resurrection with His Being here with us now, the same yesterday, today, and forever, to bring to naught the things of the world, and God to issue in His everlasting Kingdom... Grant Lord, tonight, that these things may be manifested in our sight in Jesus' precious Name, we pray. Amen.

L-59 Now, as you look this a way. One thing is to speak of something, another thing is to do something. A man can say anything he wants to, if he wants to lie about it, and just go on. But when God speaks, God confirms what He speaks. God makes real those things that He speaks of.
Now, as I have just said a few moments ago, Jesus Christ God's Son... Some of you are Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Pentecostal, Nazarenes, Pilgrim Holiness, Catholic. You're all different, mixed up, here in this little handful of people tonight. Doesn't matter how small you are, you've got a right to the Gospel. You got a right to it. I don't condemn any church, any denomination. I love them all. But brother somebody's right, and somebody's wrong. It's up to God to do the speaking.
