<TITLE>05. Par -</TITLE>1L-196-38 Then, perhaps, maybe it would be something like this, the message would say to a certain brother, maybe that, say, would... "Lived by a railroad track," or something, "to have him to move out, because there is going to be a wreck on the road," or something, or anything in that order.
And let the judges, after they give the church permission to speak, or to exercise this message that just went forth, if their judgment is, "It's of God," then watch and see if it comes to pass.
And if it comes to pass, thank God, and be very graceful, graceful in your heart towards Him. And give Him praise and worship, and be humble. Above all things, be humble.

1L-196-41 Don't never get yourself puffed up to a place where you know more about it than your pastor or the church that you are worshipping in. If you get to that place, then I would advise each one of you to get another place to worship with. Because, I am asking the pastor never to permit anything outside of the Bible order, the way we have seen it here in the church. And then we want these gifts to be operated, and in place, and the worshippers. If it's carried on correctly, according to the Word, you'll see a mighty wonderful church in operation for our Lord Jesus Christ.

1L-196-42 Now, then the next thing shall take place, will be that if these people who have, that gets out of order during these times, that a deacon or some usher that's filled with the Holy Ghost and got lots of grace in their heart, shall go to the person, reverently, fatherly like, and shall correct them in this manner. Or the pastor, whoever it may be, which would be more essential for the deacons to do so; for the pastor, at this time, while these spiritual services are going on, should be in the prayer room, or somewhere, a-praying.
These messages, then if there is no messages going on, no revelations, then the people would be privileged, if they desired, to raise and give a testimony, a testimony only for the glory of God. They're not bound to do this, but testimonies should be given before the message or any song service starts, or anything, testimonies in these worship services.
Do you understand, church, that, in doing this, you have the whole church in the spirit of worship, before the Word comes in to be taught. Then the Holy Spirit gets in the Word and manifests God through the Word, to be a confirmation of your worship.

1L-197-45 Now, then after this, a time for the pastor to come on. If messages are going on, say... The pastor should come out exactly, say, seven-thirty, and, or a quarter of eight. And if these messages are still going on, before the pastor comes to his... out of his study, or wherever he may, to take his place at the platform; some brother should instruct him, because the saints know that when the pastor comes on the platform, it's his time then for the service. And that gives plenty, ample time for all the manifestations of the gifts, to bring the Spirit of God into the--the congregation.

1L-197-46 And if any unbeliever would happen to be there, be disorderly; a kindhearted person would go to them, such as an usher or a deacon, and would tell them that they would--they would... asked to be kept reverent, or be reverent while the service is in order. Because, the Spirit is in the building, and the gifts of God are being made manifest for the edifying of the Church. And this person must be told in love, and not harshly. Unless it would come to a place where they were drinking, or some disobedient, or something another that would be interfering with the worship of--of the Lord, which the gifts are then being manifest; then the person should, would, or should be led out to one side, to one of the back rooms, or somewhere, and be talked to, and dealt with, kindly.
