<TITLE>07. Par 24-25</TITLE>L-24 That's the hungry heart of a many a millionaire tonight, wanting to find that real Holy Spirit that fell on the day of Pentecost and the real Gift of God. "We had read it in the Bible where Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. Where is  It? We have read that He is a great Healer. Where is It? We have read that 'the Holy Spirit is for you and for your children, and for them that's far off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call.' Where is It in our churches?" Where is that power that sets the Church afire, that makes them turn off the television on Wednesday night to go to church? Where is that power that makes our ladies dress like women? Where is that power that sets a soul so on fire, that he's out on the field constantly testifying to the glory of God?
Today, even in Pentecostal realms, they're becoming ashamed of the testimony. "I'm not ashamed of the Gospel of Jesus Christ," said Paul, "for it is the power of God unto salvation." It's not just a declaration of creeds, it's the power of God unto salvation to everyone that believes.
Why? The Scriptures said, "In the last days, they'd be heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasure (want to be entertained)--lovers of pleasure more than lovers of God, having a form of Godliness, but denying the Power thereof." "The days of miracles is passed," they say. "There's no such a thing as the baptism of the Holy Ghost today like they had It on the day of Pentecost."
That's just because they come to late to tell me about it. I've already got It, and I know It's the truth. I know that that same Jesus that God raised up from the dead is my Saviour, and He lives in my heart, and ever heart of any believer that will accept Him. He will change your life, and give you a know-so salvation, and a testimony of His resurrection.

L-25 But Jerusalem didn't have the answer. The Scripture says that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever. The Church don't have the answer for that. They say, "He's partly what He was. He still wants us to preach the Gospel, but signs and wonders do not appear yet."
Jesus said, "Go into all the world." How far? "All the world." And two thirds of the earth has never heard the Gospel yet. How long is the last? "All the world." Who to? "Every creature. Preach the Gospel. What is the Gospel? Paul said, "The Gospel come not only through the Word, but through power and demonstrations of the Holy Ghost." "And these signs shall accompany those that believe."
Oh, that's what we need today. Brother, here tonight, if your church don't believe in that, you get it in your heart tonight and take it right back to the church. The world's a asking today, "Where is that God? Where is that One that used to be? Where is that God of history?" If the God of history isn't the same God today, what good does a God of history do you, if He isn't the same today? What happened to the great Jehovah, the all-powerful One, the El Shaddai, the I AM, not the I was, the I AM? What happen to Him? There's nothing happened to Him; it's happened to the people.
