<TITLE>19. Par -</TITLE>L-27-2 Not long ago when I stood with the FBI agent, and he pointed out on the wall, and he said, "I appreciate your sermon." He said, "You said that it isn't the poor class of people that produces, a poor man that don't know too much, them...?... they're a little bit afraid to fool with it, but it's these types that think they can outsmart that other crook. They see where he made his mistake and try it.
He went right to the pens and showed all the juvenile cases that's been across the nation, and eighty percent of them or better come out of the aristocratic neighborhoods: smart, shrewd.

L-27-4 Look at the beginning. Now, it showed that's the sons  of--of--of Cain. Look at Cain's people. What was Cain's people? Follow them through the lineage, coming down through Cain's people. What were they? They were shrewd scientists, doctors, high people; religious, high people. They invented how to temper different metals, how to build fine buildings; they were scientists. What did the others come through? Peasants, farmers, sheepherders, so forth.
See that? Look at it today. These high-minded, they've interbred it into the churches till the church don't want some poor illiterate person, who really loves the Lord, to come in there, and maybe the preacher will say something, they say, "Amen." They lead him out the door. They don't want him in their congregation, if he can't dress just right and dress like the Joneses or somebody. You see? They--they don't want them in there if they can't drive a fine car; drive an old junk up in front of the church.

L-27-6 Brother, brother, oh, can't you see. And many of the people today won't even welcome the colored people into their churches. Oh, God, have mercy on such hypocrites. God, I want to always, as long as I've got a church, the doors are open for whosoever will. I don't care if you come in a wheelbarrow, you come on. You come on. I don't care if you're wearing overalls. I'll say one thing, you get right with God, and a pair of overalls can set down by a tuxedo suit, and they'll put their arms around one another and call each other, "brothers." Sure will. It sure will.
A calico dress can set by a silk one, and put her arms around and say, "Sister." Yes, it does something to you: breeds it back.

L-27-7 And what are we doing now? Setting in heavenly places in Christ Jesus, not taking our theology, but letting the Holy Spirit breed us back to sons and daughters of God.
What does the word "circumcise" mean? Stephen said... That's right, cut off surplus flesh (See?), cut off the surplus, the part that's not needed: circumcision, be cut off.
Now, in the Old Testament the--only male could be circumcised; the surplus flesh was cut away. Now, what the Holy Spirit does in the last days, It cuts away the surplus, cuts away the theology of the world, cuts away man-made doctrines, cuts away all unbelief, cuts away everything.

L-28-3 Stephen said, "Oh, you uncircumcised in heart and ears, why do you always resist the Holy Ghost; as your fathers did, so do you." That's where it's at, friends.
You've got to get away from, say... "Well, now, I heard a speech the other night, said, "Them Divine healers, they--you better watch them."
It ain't the Divine healers. I'd watched them too, but I watch the Word of God, what It says. I take the Word. The Word said so. See?
"Aw, you have to watch them people that believes in speaking in tongues, because that was another day. They're nothing but devils."
What does the Word said? "These signs shall follow them that believe to the end of the world. In My Name they shall cast out devils; they shall speak with new tongues; lay hands on the sick, and they shall recover," Jesus' last commission to His church.
