<TITLE>05. Par 18-21</TITLE>L-18 Then again, the servant wasn't satisfied here with just going. He wanted some kind of an assurance. And he kept questioning, "What if the woman won't come? When I tell her these things, what if she doesn't come, then what?" Then he had to make a decision.
Then when he heard from his master's lips, "The Angel of God shall go before you..." Oh, I just like that so much. It just fits my case right there. "The Angel of the Lord shall go before you, and He will persuade her." God sent His Angel with His messenger.
God does that, you know. That's the way He does it. He sent Daniel; He sent others, and He sent a Angel with them. So He every time does the same thing; for it's His way of speaking.

L-19 And He said, "The Angels of--the Angel of heaven will go before you." Oh, yes, there is times when you have hard decisions to make. There's times when you... Maybe in your middle age, you have your last earning. And you put a little here, and a little there. But now, you've got to a place, maybe, that that money has to be invested somewhere. You've got to make a decision where you will put that money. And before you invest that money, you'll first, find a place where it's safely put.
Oh, we have things today that just get rich overnight: Invest it here, and tomorrow you're a millionaire. But you wouldn't put your money in such a place as that, because it's your life's earnings.
But what will you do? With sober and sincerity, you'll search for an old reliable firm that's been tested and proved, one that's safe. And there you'll invest your money, because you don't want none of this fly-by-night.

L-20 And if you're that sincere and concerned in your decision about your life's earnings, how much more sincere should you be about your religion and your salvation. We shouldn't go for some of these little fly-by-night ideas, or put your name on a church book, and shake hands with the preacher. That won't work.
I will recommend you tonight to an old reliable institution that was founded on the day of Pentecost, when the Holy Ghost came down to dwell among men. It's the most reliable firm that I know of to invest your soul and your future in eternity, in an old fashion Pentecostal experience. It's been time tested and proved to be the truth. Two thousand years hasn't changed It a bit. And the same dividends that was paid off at Pentecost is still being paid off by this firm: The gift of the Holy Spirit, the power of healing, to see visions, Angels to appear to you. And the ministry that the apostles had, that carried them safely through, will take you to your soul's destination just as safe as it landed them.

L-21 I cannot trust my life earnings, if I had such, upon a fly-by-night. And I don't want any of these little organizations, that sprung up here in these last days, and my name on a paper, or some kind of a little sensation. I want the old reliable experience.
Make your decision to make a firm confession, and wait till you get that experience to move you on into eternity.
It was good for Paul and Silas; It done good to Peter that night in the jail. The next day, he was to be beheaded, and the Angel of the Lord came in as a Pillar of Fire, and touched him, and delivered him. That same Angel's still on the--the giving end tonight. It still accompanies the firm of the Holy Ghost and the Church of the living God.
