<TITLE>25. Par 494-500</TITLE>L-494 Moody, one time, speaking, and begin, when he was preaching so under inspiration, he spoke in tongues. He said, "God, forgive me for muttering foolish words." Certainly. See? And they had those things. We believe those things, but they must be put in their place. And they must not be set as evidences.

L-495 There's not one thing left in the Bible, as "evidence of the Holy Ghost," only the fruits of the Spirit. Find out any place that Jesus said so. Yes, sir. The evidence of the Holy Ghost is the fruit of your Spirit. Jesus said so, "By their fruit you shall know them." "And the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, long-suffering, goodness, peace, gentleness, meekness. And the fruit of the enemy is enmity, hatred, malice, strife, and so forth; that's the fruit of the enemy." So, you can judge by the way you're living, where you're standing with God. If your whole heart is in love with Him, and you love Him and are gentle, and live with Him daily, you know you've passed from death unto Life. If it isn't, and you're otherwise, you're just impersonating a Christian. That's right. Which, all carnal impersonations will certainly be exposed. We know that.

L-496   So, don't live that kind of a life, you don't have to. Why would you accept a substitute, when the whole skies above are full of the good and the real? Certainly. Let me take God, that's what I want. Amen.

L-497 Now, did anybody come to be prayed for? If you did, raise your hand. We had the healing service this morning. I suppose then... This lady here? All right, sister, would you come forward then? And our brother, elder, here, come now for the anointing.
[Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]
... shine on me;
Oh, shine on me, Lord, shine on me,
Let the Light from the lighthouse shine on me.

L-498   Isn't He wonderful? Let's just bow our heads, real quietly now. And, Shine On Me, again. Now, come on now, everybody, that, "Shine..." Just worship Him in your soul now, see, getting quiet. The healing service is coming on. The message is over. Let's worship.
Let the Light from the lighthouse shine on me;
Oh, shine on me, Lord, shine on me.
Let the Light from the lighthouse shine on me.
Just to be like Jesus, to be like Jesus,
Oh, on earth I long to be like Him;
All through life's journey from earth to Glory,
I only ask to be like Him.
We'll walk in the Light, such a beautiful Light,
Come where the dewdrops of mercy are bright;
Shine all around us, by day and by night,
Jesus, the Light of the world.
All ye saints of Light proclaim,
Jesus, the Light of the world,
Then the bells of Heaven will ring,
Jesus, the Light of...
Receive us, Lord, as we worship Thee.
We'll walk in the Light, beautiful Light,
Come where the dewdrops of mercy are bright;
Shine all around us by day and by night,
Jesus the Light of the world.

L-499   Don't you just love that scouring out? You feel good? Raise your hand, tell. There's something about those old-fashioned songs, the old-time hymn, I'd rather have them than all these new worldly songs put in, and in Christian churches. I like that old time, I like.
Jesus, keep me near the cross, (My!)
There a precious fountain,
Free to all, a healing stream,
Flows from Calvary fountain.
In the cross, in the cross,
Oh, be my glory ever;
Till my raptured soul shall find
Rest beyond the river.

L-500   I could go out of the world pretty easy when that's being sang. Couldn't you? [Congregation says, "Amen."--Ed.] How wonderful! Has it all settled? You know, I'm glad I done settled it all up. Aren't you? ["Amen."] The old account is all settled, long time ago. I told Him, "Lord, I don't want any trouble down at the river. I--I want to be sure now." I want to know Him. I want to know Him.
