<TITLE>18. Par 64-67</TITLE>L-64 Amen. Brother Fred and Brother Norman, the brothers that I was setting with this morning, if that wasn't the very same thing that I was talking of this morning. I said America's harvest... When I started years ago to--on the harvest with the gifts and so forth, it's went over; it's combed the nation; the harvest is already reaped in. Now we're going back across the field over stubble, just picking up a grain here and there wherever we can. Is that right, brethren? That's saying the same thing here; the Holy Spirit turns right back around and speaks the same thing tonight. Amen.
Oh, God is--is soon... Oh, if they could rejoice when the--when the harvest begin, what ought we do now when the harvest is over? Winnowing time is here now, separating the chaff. See? This is the time. Then how can you hold your peace without blasting it out just exactly... This is winnowing time. Yes, sir, when you--you beat the husk off of the wheat. That's exactly right. This is the time when it's coming. Amen.

L-65 If anybody here that hasn't got a Pentecostal experience, and wants the Holy Ghost, here's the altar, right here now. We'll come right here and pray for anybody that doesn't have the Holy Spirit. Anybody that wants to receive Jesus, I invite you here to the altar.
If you've noticed in the times past, I'm not too much to persuade people. It doesn't... I know it's good, sometime people go back and talk to one another, but I seen people led too far away from God by... If the Holy Spirit won't raise them from their seat, then they're hopeless anyhow. They never last. See? That's right. If the preaching of the Word...
And Jesus turned around and said to that Syrophenician woman, "It's not meet for Me to take the children's bread, and give it to the dogs."
She said, "That's the truth, Lord; that's right. But the dogs is ready to eat the scraps around the master's table."
He said, "For this saying..." This saying...

L-66 Now, this is the church--want you to notice. The thing is, the ministry will continually get greater. You see? The--the gifts that the Lord has given, is to vindicate that I'm telling you the truth. It's God's a vindication that it's the truth. Then, what was the truth?
I said, "He said I was supposed to pray for people; I was born for that purpose." I said that years ago.
These gifts... I just put all the ministry right on the gifts. See? And the people--American people especially--are wanting to be entertained. They've got... They did the same thing with our Lord. But just as soon as I begin to tell what I was, tell my truth, my doctrines of the Scripture... Which I'd ask any man to correct me in them. See? That's right. Nobody's never done it yet. And I'm just as humble, would be willing to accept it any time.

L-67 But as soon as Jesus begin to tell them the truth about the Gospel, what happened? The seventy went away; the others went away. And Jesus' popularity continually fell, until finally they crucified Him. But His ministry growed deeper and deeper, lasted... Made this bread (as I talked of the other night) into the fish; turned right around and put sockets... A--a man's eyes that doesn't have sockets, put eyeballs in.
Now, there was a crowd followed just for the fishes and loaves. They say, "We'll see what He does tomorrow." But their hearts were far away.
And at the end time, how many did He have to go up to receive the Pentecostal blessing, out of the tens of thousands He ministered to? A hundred and twenty, out of the tens of thousands. Now, that Spirit in the world today, performing the same ministry against the same opposition, It'll do the same thing. That's right. But His ministry grows deeper and deeper all the time, greater. Now...
