<TITLE>04. Par 14-17</TITLE>L-14 And let's take a little picture like this. God, the fountain of all life, and the Logos that went out of God, that brood over the earth, and as He was brooding... Or the word means like "mothering," or "cooing."
The first thing as He brood, the little moistures begin to come together, and a little flower raised up. God said, "That's good. Just keep on brooding." And the next thing, the grass and vegetation comes up. "That's beautiful. Just keep on brooding." Then the trees came up. "That's beautiful," said God. "Just keep on brooding."
The birds flew from the dust. "Wonderful, just keep brooding." The animals come from the dust. "Keep on brooding." And then man came from the dust. God brought man up out of the dust of the earth. We're told we're made of sixteen elements of the earth, potash, calcium, petroleum, cosmic light, and so forth.

L-15 And if we had been brought to this place by the grace of God, and we're free moral agents to make a choice, and if the Holy Spirit that brood us from the earth, and starts to brooding to our hearts, and we accept Him, and brood back to Him, how much more is He able to raise us up in the last days, when we got a chance to make a choice.
So it could only be through the brooding of the Holy Spirit. That's how life comes, is by the Holy Spirit. Therefore you can only have life by the Holy Spirit. That's why Jesus said, "Except a man be borned again, he can in no wise see the Kingdom of God."

L-16 And the psalmist saying, "Thy love kindness if better than life." Then I begin to think, "What kind of a life was he speaking of that the love kindness of Father was better than life?" Then it come to my mind that there is a way that seemeth like it's life. It is a perverted life.
Now, the devil cannot create nothing. God is the only Creator there is. And what is unrighteousness? Is righteousness perverted. Then we notice, that there's a perversion of righteousness makes unrighteousness. It's not original. And it's--it's not right. The original, it is right.
Therefore, God had no beginning and He has no ending. And if we become a part of God, we can no more die than God can die, because we've got His life in us by the new birth. And we're just as eternal as God is eternal. We cannot perish. Jesus said, "He that heareth My words, believeth on Him that sent Me, hath Eternal Life, shall never come into the judgment; but is passed from death to Life."

L-17 Now, notice. A few weeks ago I was in a great city, probably not the size of this. It was in Canada. And after coming from a glorious meeting where I seen our blessed Lord save the lost souls of sinful men and women, and delivered them from their infirmities by their faith in His finished work, I went up into a great hotel.
A bunch of an American people were there. They were having some sort of a lodge meeting, a jubilee time, meeting, a conference like. And as I went way up on the elevator, got off, started down the hall, I was very much stricken by a real horrible sound. And I stepped back just a moment to see what it was.
And to my surprise, two young women, just about in their early twenties, came down the hall just in their underclothes, with a bottle in their hand, going from door to door, and men pulling at them. And I thought, "O God, maybe somewhere a husband and a little baby, but they were just thinking it as innocent fun." There is no such thing. That's what's the matter with our world today is too much sin called innocent fun.
