<TITLE>13. Par -</TITLE>L-17-3 Those things are not in the Bible, those doctrines. But to be popular, to make themselves a church, to line them up as they are now with the Confederation of Churches, to bring themselves in to make them like the rest of them, they did that and dwarfed themselves: keep dwarfing.
First generation of Pentecostals was on fire. The second generation begin to die out. That's now. Watch what the third generation will bring. It ain't going to go all the way out before Jesus comes, because the Laodicean church was lukewarm: neither warm, nor hot; it still had a little bit of the blessing left in it. They was mixed up, one here, and there, and back there. They were mixed up, not all together cold, but warm.

L-18-1 God said the church in its whole, "You even make me sick at My stomach. When I have give you the Holy Ghost, and you interbred It with the world and let the things of the world creep in, I'll just spue the whole organization out of My mouth. But fear not little flock, the one who's kept the commandments of God; it's your Father's good will to give you the Kingdom." Stay with the Word. What the Word says, stay with It. Don't you interbreed that with nothing. I don't care what bishop, what archbishop, what man says anything about it, stay right with the Word.
As Peter said on the day of Pentecost, "Repent, and be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ."... Every other place in the Bible they were baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ. Don't you never accept Father, Son, and Holy Ghost for that. If you do, you're hybreeding yourself.

L-18-3 Now, you show me one place in the Bible where anybody was ever baptized in the Name of the Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. It's not there. It's man-made theology that's been hybrid into the church, giving a chance for a idol, like's coming into the nation now.
I can prove to you by history and by the Bible that anybody that's baptized in the Name of Father, Son, and Holy Ghost is baptized in the Catholic church, by their own catechism. They said, "Will any Protestants be saved?"
Said, "Some of them, they accept some of our doctrine. They claim to believe the Bible." Said, "The Bible said, 'Repent, and be baptized (Peter did on the day of Pentecost and so forth.) in the Name of Jesus Christ.' Their Bible teaches that, but they accept our doctrine. (That's Father, Son, and Holy Ghost. That's--that's the catechism.)" It ain't a Protestant doctrine; it's a Catholic doctrine. But we, as Pentecostals, interbred it with man-made theology.
You see where we're getting? No wonder God can't send a revival He's got nothing to build it on. Then He'll take individuals, and build it on them individuals, and declare them before the world. Who stay with that Word.

L-18-6 Sprinkling, whoever heard of that? Accepting water baptism by immersing, taking it away from there, and making it a sprinkling. Whoever heard of giving the right hand of fellowship to bring them into the church or by letter? Nonsense. It's hybrid. We must all come the same route.
Some of them said, "I'm a Methodist because mother is a Methodist." Mother might've been a Methodist Christian, but that don't make you one. She might've been a Baptist Christian, but that don't make you one.
