<TITLE>11. Par 40-44</TITLE>L-40 When that great body... We're not to be conformed with this world, but be transformed. The body of Christ is a new creature. And when old things is passed away, and the world has went out of us, and we become new creatures in Christ, our whole affections is on things above. Then we look to Christ. We look not at the things of the world.
Here, it's this simple. There's the picture of Mrs. Cadle on one side. There's the picture of her son on the other side. When you're looking this way, you're thinking of Mrs. Cadle. When you're looking on the other side, you're thinking of the picture on this side, you're thinking of E. Howard Cadle. If you're looking at Mr. Cadle or you're looking at the clock, you're looking at the flag. Whatever you're looking at that's what you're thinking about.

L-41 But when you go to look to symptoms and, "Wonder what my pastor will say? I can't cooperate with that. I don't know..." Oh, brother, you can never get anything from God like that. You've got to set your faith on God's eternal Word and say, "It's THUS SAITH THE LORD." That will stand.
"What will my pastor say? What will my denominations say, will they excommunicate me? What difference does it make? Set your heart and your faith in God. "Upon this rock I will build My Church, and the gates of hell can't prevail against it." It showed it would try, but it won't prevail.

L-42 Now, the faith that was once delivered to the saints. If the body of Christ, literally, when it was in Christ Jesus, when that Spirit of God was in Christ, "A little while," he said, "and the world will see Me no more, yet ye shall see Me; for I'll be with you to the end of the world. The works that I do shall you do also, even greater than this shall you do, for I go to My Father." There you are. That's the faith that was once delivered to the saints.
Christian friends, let's not be children any longer. We have no need of being children; we're adults. Quit running after this, and running after that, and joining this, and joining that. Come join your heart with the Word of God and with the Holy Spirit. That's the thing. Stand there and say, "God, I believe You."

L-43 I believe today with all my heart that the messages and the things that God has did across the nation is only to bring condemnation. Do you realize that just across, the sea yonder, where a madman sets, that the only thing he'd have to do in ten minutes from now to wipe Indianapolis from the earth is to press a button. A rocket would fly through the air and a hydrogen bomb, and they said they had one that it would explode the whole ocean. That's all it had...
A mad, crazy people setting there in that condition, and the Gospel has been preached, the real, gen... Oh, I know that Jambres and Moses with--a Jambres and Jannes withstood Moses... The two-headed god of Egypt... We have it. That only claims there's a real one. And that's true. That only claims there's a real genuine.
There's a real God Almighty. There's a real Holy Spirit. There's a real faith that was once delivered to the saints. That same faith that was delivered to the saints will operate through God's holy Word. That's the way it did then, that's the way it'll do now.

L-44 Why do you accept a substitute when the whole skies are full of real, genuine Pentecostal blessings? Why should we try anything else? Let's return to Christ in this convention. Let's fill our hearts full of His love. He stands trying His best to pour it into us. But we won't stand still long enough.
We got so many pretty things we have to see, so many fashions. The devil just wants you to do like Eve, stop for a minute. Don't you pay any attention to him. Keep your eyes on Christ, your ears on the Word and keep moving on. That's the faith that was once delivered to the saints.
