<TITLE>14. Par 56-60</TITLE>L-56 Now, notice this, then when this adoption come, that boy's name was just as good as his daddy's. He was heir of all things then. All his father had, so did he have.
Now, Jesus said, "He that believeth on Me, the works that I do, shall he do also. He will be able to do the same things that I do." Now, God was proving here, what He was doing through His own Son. He'd pleased Him.

L-57 Now look, they was all standing there, and there's a great thing, and God called three heavenly witnesses, and three earthly witnesses, to witness it that... Like it is in the Old Testament, they had witnesses out there to see that this adoption was done. Now, what did God do to His Son? They went out there on this mountain and all of a sudden, there come a big white cloud down and overshadowed Jesus, and His clothes shined like the sun, His raiment. What was it? That special robe of adoption. Amen. Special robe of adoption. And he overshadowed Him, and said, "I'm adopting My Son; this is My beloved Son, hear ye Him. He's the One."
Oh, you know when supernatural is done, it--it gets men excited. That's what's happened in our revival, in the pentecostal revival. We--always happens that way.

L-58 When Moses come up out of Egypt, the supernatural had been done, the uncircumcised went with him, polluted the camp after while. And we've had a lot of people to try to impersonate having the Holy Ghost. People have just said, "Well, the rest of them shouted, I'll shout too." That's flesh. And you can do any of those impersonations, but that's not the Holy Ghost yet. The Holy Ghost is something happens in here. That's it. That bears fruit. As I said last night, "A sheep bears wool, because he's a sheep. And when you're borned again, you bear the fruit of the Spirit because God is in you." See?
Now, something happened. Moses had a mixed multitude; it's always a mixed multitude. We've had a mixed multitude; it's went out to impersonate the gifts, and--and to--it's caused people to be scared.

L-59 Now, talking to the breakfast, the other morning, to the brethren, I can't blame shepherds for being afraid. There's everything in the world loose. That's exactly right. Oh, all kinds of sensations that's unscriptural, and everything else, and a lot of nonsense that isn't even Scriptural. I don't blame pastors; they're shepherds, God will make them answer for it. But what does a bogus dollar mean? A bogus dollar means that there's real one it's made off of. There's a real one somewhere. Why would you accept a bogus one, when the--the whole skies are full of pentecostal real ones. That's what I want to know, why do you want to accept the substitute, when the skies are full of real pentecostal power? Certainly, that really cleans the heart.

L-60 Now, you know Peter got excited when the supernatural was done. He seen Jesus glorified there, and God adopting Him. Now, when the father adopted the son, in the Old Testament, the son was in charge (That's right.), was--taken over. Now, God said, "This is My beloved Son in Whom I'm well pleased, from this on, hear Him. Hear ye Him."
Peter got excited. He got like man does, when the supernatural's done. He said, "Let--let's build three tabernacles here. Let's make three denominations out of it. And all those that wants to worship under the law, and all that wants to worship under the prophets, and all that wants to worship for Jesus, we'll have three different denominations." That's the way it goes. You have former rains, latter rains, inner rains, outer rains, and all kinds of things follows it. That's true. That's right. Let's build some denominations.
But before he got through speaking, before he got it out of his mouth, God said, "This is My Son."
