<TITLE>11. Par 40-44</TITLE>L-40 If the doctor said you're going to die with this cancer, with this TB, with your bad heart, whatever it might be, if God said--or the doctor said you're going to die with it, then why don't you let Jesus come in tonight and talk it over with you. He will tell you all about it. He will show you things.
The Holy Spirit is sharper, quicker, like the Word of God, than a two-edged sword. It discerns even the thoughts of the mind. It makes people well. It cures them from sin. It takes the sickness from them. It takes sin from them. Oh, it's a great powerful thing. The most power there is in the world is the Holy Ghost.

L-41 People today are searching for power. If they'd only open their eyes.
I seen here not long ago where the Sinclair gasoline had an advertisement in one of the local magazines, that said that the--one gallon of Sinclair gasoline in a certain sized machine could lift the sphinx two foot off of the ground.
Well, I will tell you something more powerful than that: One drop of the Blood of Jesus Christ can lift every sinner from his sin and mire unto glory to be in the images of God, to live with Him forever. One drop of the Blood of Jesus Christ...

L-42 One drop of Blood of Jesus Christ here, one accepting or one door opening to the Holy Spirit... Let that faith door, God stand there and declare Himself like He did to Abraham, that He's God forever more.
It'll take a cripple out of a wheelchair. It'll take a dying shadow of a woman, or a man, laying on a cot and make them whole again. It'll take the most wretched reprobate woman that there is in this city, so low down the dogs wouldn't even look at her, and make her a saint of God, and wash her, clean her with the... It'll take a man that's a gambler and a drunkard, and no good at all; won't even provide for his home, and his little children on the street begging while he's out gambling, drinking, and run around. It'll make a Christian gentleman out of him.

L-43 One accepting of the Holy Ghost will do that, one door to fly open to the Holy Ghost. And He stands and knocks at the door. If any man will open the door...
Oh, how good He is. You knocked at my door, as I've said, and I didn't let you in, you probably wouldn't come back. And if I knocked at your door and you didn't let me in... But to think of the goodness of Christ. If He come and stood in our midst and did one thing, if we didn't expect--didn't believe Him like that, you'd walk on away if it'd be you or I. "If they don't want to believe me, they don't want to accept it, let them go ahead." But not Him. He comes back night after night, time after time, hour after hour, sunset after sunset, miracle after miracle, day after day, night after night, continually knocking at the door, waiting. But you have to open the door.
If you'd only think of His goodness, of how good He is to you.

L-44 Here some time ago, down in the South, there was a--a wonderful old Pentecostal colored brother, preacher. And he had a man going to his church, and a woman. And the woman was a godly woman, sainted woman, filled with the Holy Spirit. But her husband was a caretaker in a great racing farm there. And--and his--his name was Gabriel, but we called him Gabe, just for short. And old Gabe was a nice old man, but we could never get him to line up with God, to ever get right. The old pastor said, "I've done everything I know to do. And I can't get him to go to church." And his wife prays day and night for Gabe.
But Gabe liked to hunt, and so did the pastor. So he used to take Gabe hunting with him. And one day while they'd been out, and they'd shot so many rabbits, and so many birds till they could hardly walk along the road in a straight path, they were just loaded with game. And they were coming up around a--a little old certain hill. And after while after when they got up around this certain hill, the pastor looked around and he noticed old Gabe kept watching the sun go down.
