<TITLE>14. Par 56-59</TITLE>L-56 I'm an American. I love my country. But everyone sees this boogie-woogie and rock-and-roll. Sin has brought it to a place till it's ready for judgment. Don't you think we're going to escape it. There's a sputnik waiting yonder, and one of these... And what would they do if they get up in that plane, that thing tonight and roar right around here? They could do it if they want to. What can we do about it? We're five years behind them. Roar right around here, fill that thing full of missiles, five hundred off the earth where you could touch them.
Look at ours. When they sent it up down yonder in Florida. It fizzled out a few feet off the ground. We're attending the rock-and-roll parties instead of studying the Bible and getting ready for the coming of the Lord. Sure, we're at the end time. They can say, "Surrender or you'll be ashes in five minutes." We'd surrender too. If that... Then what's going to happen? Oh, I love Him. He's wonderful.

L-57 But remember before this happens, the Church has to go. Amen. So we're at the end time. We're right in the shadows of His coming right now. I'm so thankful to see that He's come down to prove His Word if it's before a dozen, or before a million. But it'll pass right through the people, and millions will never know about it. It always has been that way, and it always will be that way. Then they'll wonder sometime, "Well, I didn't... I really didn't know it." Got eyes, but can't see.
Watch Him now, as this woman touched His garment. And she received. Jesus looked all around, said, "Who touched Me?"
Peter said, "Everybody's touching You."
He looked around; He said, "But I got weak, somebody... Oh," He said, "it's you. You with the blood issue there, your faith has saved you. It's all over now." That was Jesus yesterday. And when He left He said, "A little while and the world won't see Me no more, yet you'll see Me, for I'll be with you, even in you, unto the end of the world."

L-58 Now, my beloved friends, if that's either the truth or it isn't the truth. If it's the truth, we ought tonight to be the happiest people this side of the heavens. If it isn't the truth, then well who's... What can you believe?
Now, I know people try to bypass that and say, "Well, that was for the disciples, and that was for this, and..." They did it in the days of the Elijah. They did it in the days of John. They did it in the days of Jesus. They'd do it right now just the same. See?
But there is a group of people that God by foreknowledge has opened their eyes of understanding and they can see. God, grant it'll be you tonight and me. Now, if He will return... Be... Not return, but He's already returned. He's here in Spirit, been here since the day of Pentecost in the form of the Holy Spirit to work in His branches to show forth His goodness.
What if I told you tonight that there was a great spirit in me by the--the spirit of this outlaw Dillinger? What if I said I had Dillinger's spirit, you better come search me; I might have guns. I'd--I'd be dangerous to be here.

L-59 What if I told you that the spirit of some great artist was in me? I'd come here and I'd say, "I have the spirit of some great famous artist." I'd take this down here and put up another picture, and in a few minutes music go to playing, and I'd paint you a picture that you'd set there and gasp to look at, if I had that spirit in me. Sure.
What if I had the... Whatever spirit that's in me governs me and it works, and does just exactly... I do what the spirit that's in me makes me do. And if we're Christians, the Spirit of Christ is in us. Then He will be just exactly like He was back there. Certainly. He will have leaders. He will have children that understands the leader. He will have people that...
