<TITLE>13. Par 37-38</TITLE>L-37 Daniel, another one who had purposed in his heart, he wouldn't defile hisself with the king's meat, when he was taken down into Babylon. He maintained his fellowship in the presence of lions that was ready to kill him, yet David--Daniel held his fellowship; and God sent an Angel and stood by him that night, and blinded the eyes, and shut the mouth of the lion; because Daniel had fellowship with the supernatural. Daniel had fellowship with the God of heaven, because he was under the Blood. That's how he maintained his stand.
The Hebrew children, right in the middle of the fiery furnace, no matter what you'd do to them, you can't scorch that fellowship away from them. You can't throw them under enough trials to make them deny it.
A man that's ever been under the Blood of Jesus Christ and become filled with the Holy Ghost, all the devils in hell couldn't root it out of him. He knows where he stands...?... I know you think I'm crazy, swinging my hands, but if you felt like I did, you'd jump up in your seat and do the same thing.

L-38 But listen, brother. A baby that's born and it don't cry, don't whimper, there's something wrong with that baby. It's born dead. That's right. That's what's the matter with their--too much of the churches today, too much of the people call themselves Christians; they are born dead, stillbirth. It's no good. What they need... You know what the doctor does when one don't make a whimper, he picks him up, and turns him over, and gives him a couple of good raps; and he lets out a squall. That's what the church needs today, is another good old-time Holy Ghost baptism, shaking of the church, till it'll spank all the world out of it, get it back to real Pentecostal blessing. A real preacher that'll stand up and take the Gospel and beat the whole--the gold, and like the old beaters used to...
They'd beat the gold, and turn it over, and beat till all the dross was out of it. How did he know it was ready? When he could see his own reflection in it, then he knowed the gold was ready, the dross was out of it. That's what the Holy Spirit does by the Word. It beats all the world out of the church, until the reflection of Jesus Christ appears into the church in the people. When God can see His reflection of His power, like He did on the day of Pentecost, when He sent the Holy Ghost down, and the power of God made the people drunk like new wine, when they said, "What, are these men full of new wine?"
He said, "This is that which is spoken of by the prophet Joel: "It'll come to pass in the last days, saith God, I'll pour out My Spirit upon all flesh. And your sons and daughters shall prophesy. I'll show wonders in the heavens above and in the earth below, signs, and Pillars of Fire, and smoke, and vapor. It shall come to pass before the noble day of the Lord shall come--notable day--whosoever call upon the Name of the Lord shall be saved."
