<TITLE>15. Par 61-64</TITLE>L-61 There was Moses, he represented the law. Well, the law--the law is the policeman. The law put you in jail; it doesn't have any power to get you out. The law only condemns you. The law brought us to condemnation. The law judges you. I'm glad that Moses and his law is gone. It had no grace in it. It had no deliverance in it. It was the law, penalty, that you're guilty, the law said. Put you in jail, that's all of it. You're in jail. I'm glad that passed away.
And then, there's the Moses--or the Elijah. Elijah represented the prophets which was God's justice. Elijah went up on a mountain and set down. And the king sent up a bunch of men to get him. He stood up and said, "God told me to come up here and set down. Don't you come on these grounds." Said, "If I be a servant of God, let fire fall from heaven and burn you up." Down come the fire. That's justice. They wouldn't listen to the Word, 'cause that's justice. Brother, I'm glad; I don't want His justice; I want His mercy, not His justice.

L-62 We're all condemned by His law. We'd all die under His justice. I'm so glad that God said, "They're done gone. This is My beloved Son, hear ye Him. He has mercy, love, grace, healing, glory, and power, and the Holy Ghost for us. Hear ye Him; this is My beloved Son. He was wounded for your transgressions, bruised for your iniquity, the chastisement of your peace was upon Him, and with His stripes you were healed. Hear ye Him. Come unto Me all ye that labor, and heavy laden, I will give you rest. He that believeth in Me, the works that I do, shall he do also. Greater than this shall he do, for I go unto My Father. If ye abide in Me, and My Word in you, ask what you will; it will be given to you." Oh, my. "A little while, and the world will seeth Me no more, yet ye will see Me, for I will be with you, even in you to the end of the world, to the end of the consummation. (Hallelujah.) This is My beloved Son, hear ye Him."
If you want healing, hear ye Him. If you want mercy, hear ye Him. If you want the Holy Ghost, hear ye Him. Don't shake hands with the bishop, touch the garment of Him. If you want healing, hear Him. If the doctor says you're going to die, hear Him. Hear Him; hear ye Him. It's enough to excite a man.

L-63 Peter had seen something real, something take place that was genuine. And any man that's got character, any woman that's got character, they're wanting, the world's hungry to hear something real. They want to get a hold of something that's real. When they find it, they're willing to receive it. But they want something that's real, not some sham, put on.
All of you know that I'm a hunter. I used to go up in the north woods hunting, years ago. I had a cabin up there that belonged to another fellow, and he and I, we hunted. His name was Burt Caul. One of the best hunters I ever seen, and the meanest man I ever knowed. That man was the cruel-hearted-est person, I ever seen in my life. And he used--we used to hunt with him, but he--he was a good shot, half Indian too, and you couldn't lose him in the woods. You didn't have to go hunt him up somewhere; he was--he was always on the spot. But he's just so cruel-hearted, and he had eyes that look like a lizard. And he was--he was always just like to tease me about being a preacher. And you know, he used to shoot little fawns just to make me feel bad.

L-64 Now, you hunting bro--you brothers that hunt, I have nothing against shooting a fawn. If the law says you can have it, all right. But just don't shoot a big bunch of them to be mean. There's nothing in killing a fawn. That's all right.
Abraham killed a calf, and God eat it. So that's--it's not the wrong isn't there, but just to be mean. It's your attitude. That's right. And he did this just to be mean. He wanted to make me feel bad.
