<TITLE>16. Par 49-51</TITLE>L-49 You know, Peter went down and preached. Philip had went down and baptized the people at Samaria, but they hadn't received the Holy Ghost as yet. Peter went down and laid hands upon them, and they received the Holy Ghost. Now, that's exactly what the Scripture says.
Now, won't you come, come for this consecration. Come for the time that you... There's plenty of Balm in Gilead. Don't you believe that?
All right. Let's just make our ways to the room now, so we can go in there, have hands laid on, pray, and receive the Holy Ghost. Right now's the time. Don't put it off another hour. One more hour may be too late. We don't know just how long we're going to live. But we know one thing: If we got Eternal Life, we can't die. Isn't that the truth, my brethren? We cannot die.

L-50 Did you ever chase that word down? "He that believeth on Me, has Eternal Life." If you'll take that out of the Greek, it's the word "zoe," which means, "God's own Life in you." You are no longer yourself, but you're a child of God.
Here a few weeks ago, my wife setting back there, she and I was going to a grocery store to get some groceries. And I was amazed to find one lady with a skirt on. And I said, "Meda, what about that?"
She said, "What I'm asking you, Bill," said, "you come back from overseas, you say they do this in France; they do that in England; they do this in another place. And is this what they do in America?"
I said, "That's the spirit of America."
Said, "Aren't we Americans?"
I said, "No."
Said, "What are we, German?"
I said, "No."
"What are we?"
I said, "We are pilgrims and strangers." I said, "That's the reason, the American spirit on our women. They don't do those things on our men. They don't drink, our brethren, and things like that."
The American spirit drinks. That's a national spirit. Every nation is governed by the devil. The Bible says so. Satan said, "These kingdoms are mine; I will do with them whatever I want to."

L-51 Jesus never disputed his word. But He knowed He'd fall heir to every one of them in the millennium, so He just let him go on. That's true. Because He knowed He'd--He'd--He'd be King over... "The kingdoms of this world," said Revelations, "has become the kingdoms of our Lord." And the living, the redeemed lived and reigned with Christ on earth for a thousand years. So we know that there is coming a Kingdom where Christ will be King. Then we won't have any war. We won't have any sickness. We won't have any immorality.
But you take people today. Good women, fine young ladies get out here on the street and dress immorally to just lust, to make men look at them. What is it? The poor children has a--has a spirit of lust on them and don't know it. You might be as pure as a lily. You might be a virgin. But at the day of judgment, you're going to have to answer for committing adultery. Jesus said, "Whosoever looketh upon a woman to lust after her has committed adultery with her in his heart." And if that sinner looks at you, then when he has to answer for it at the day of judgment, who did he commit adultery with? You. Why did he? Because you presented yourself that way to him. Open your eyes, seeds of Abraham. Sure.
