<TITLE>14. Par 97-102</TITLE>L-97 Now, the devil say, "See, He delays." That don't make any difference. Daniel prayed one time, and it was twenty-one days before the Angel ever got to him; but he wasn't discouraged; he knowed He'd come anyhow, so he just waited till He got there. That's right. Oh, that's when you're getting faith.
Now, we have to get off of that; we'd have a healing service right quick, wouldn't we? That's right. Yeah, of faith... But we want a soul-healing service to heal the inside, because that is what's going to last. You get Eternal Life; Eternal Life does not vanish or grow old; it stays, remains the same.

L-98 Now, he got in the Spirit before anything took place. The first thing he did, he was in the isle called Patmos (all these things that he did), and he said, "I heard a voice," and all these other things. But before anything took place, he was in the Spirit. And if you notice that in your Bible, big capital Spirit: Holy Spirit. Amen. He got in the Spirit. Oh, I just think that's wonderful.
I was in the Spirit on the Lord's day,...
On what day? The Lord's day. Now, there's a big discussion. Let's just quieten that, just for a minute.
Now, as we said this morning, some said that the revelation of Saint Matthew 17, was Peter. The Catholic church said, "He built His church upon Peter; he was the first pope." How could he been a pope and been married? See? And said, "Peter went to Rome, was buried over there in the..." Then tell me one place, history or anywhere, that Peter ever went to Rome. See? Paul did, but not Peter. All right.

L-101 So we find out that all these isms and things, it just crept up. See? But and people today are... Everywhere you go, they... Some great church has got a certain nail that was in His hand. You know how many nails they got, authentic nails, today that was in? Nineteen. They got bones; they got--they got pieces of robes, and touch and handle. And we don't--we don't have those things; we don't need that. Christ is alive. He's in us, not some nail, or piece of cloth, or piece of bone, or something. He's the living God, living in us now, manifesting Himself. We only have one article of a memorial; that's the Lord's Supper, commemoration of His death. But as far as Christ Himself, He is with us and in us. And that's the thing that we want to wave (the glory of the Holy Spirit) to the world, wave It until the Light goes out. All right.

L-102 Now, the... So, you see, we took that other side of the road. You know I've always tried to be this, and our Lord has always revealed it to me; there's one extreme and another extreme; but right in the middle of the road lays the truth. Did you notice Isaiah, where He said that there shall be a highway: Isaiah 35? And you remember how our precious Nazarene brethren used to sing that song, you know, "The Highway of Holiness. Highway of Holiness." Now, if you'll read your Bible right, it doesn't say, "the highway of holiness." It said, "There shall be a highway and a way, and it shall be called," not the highway of holiness, but "the way of holiness." "And" is a conjunction that finishes your sentence. See? "It shall be a highway and a way, and it shall be called the way of holiness," not a highway of holiness.
See, a road's built, a way... A good road is built, the highest part's in the center, because it let's all the trash wash off to both sides. That's it. When a man really comes to Christ, he's got his eyes centered on Christ. If he's a little bit emotional, he'll be a fanatic. If he's a little bit cold, he'll get on this other side and be just a cucumber, over on that side (See?), his intellectual. But the main thing is right in the middle of the road, with enough Spirit in you to keep you warm and moving (Amen.), and knowing enough to keep yourself under obedience to the Spirit, and move just as the Spirit moves, not till or not after; just as the Spirit moves.
