<TITLE>22. Par 218-224</TITLE>L-218 Now, my brother, if you would just want to go back to--to Pergamos, at Revelations 2:13, just a minute, and let me just show you here what that really is: the denomination.
I know Thy works, and where thou dwellest, even where Satan's seat is:...
There you are. That Laodicean--or, I mean that Nicolaitane church age where they had denominated... And watch, to show that they was a church, a synagogue, a church, a church of denomination (Oh, brother.), the synagogue of Satan. Then the works of denomination is of the devil. Not the Christians now, remember, they're Christians. But the denomination itself... All right.
Now, did you notice He said, "You have those among You who say they are Jews, but you found them liars."

L-221 Now, remember, the great angel... Now, what's he speaking to? This last church, this open door between the two churches.
Now, the first church age was taught by who? Paul. Now, let's go to Romans 2:29 and see what a Jew is, so that you'll be sure to know it--it isn't my own thought of it. Romans the 2nd chapter and the 29th verse of Romans. All right, here we are.
But he is a Jew, which is one inwardly; and circumcision is... of the heart, and in the spirit, and not in the letter; whose praises is not of... whose praise is not of men, but of God.
What is a--what is a Jew? A Spirit, Holy Ghost-filled Christian. I know that you're down here after that age of sanctification that say they got the Holy Ghost, but... He said it; I never. They said they had the Holy Ghost without the signs following, but He said they are liars. "These signs shall follow them that believe." Can't make Him lie. Oh, brother. That blinds you around, around. See? Oh, my.
I'll... Behold, I will make them of the synagogue of Satan, which say they are Jews,... ("Which say they are Spirit-filled Christians, say... The synagogue, the organization, I'll make them that says they got the Holy Ghost, and all organize--organized up there. They haven't even got the revelation yet." See? All right.)... I'll say... them that say they are Jews... (or Christians)... and are not, but do lie; behold, I will make them... come and worship before Thy feet, and to know that I have loved thee.

L-224 Right here it'd have to break in on me in the morning's message. That's the sleeping virgin right there. Can you see it? When was it at? At the end time. Oh, when they went out... Here is the... See? They are justified by faith, sanctified: justified through Luther's message, sanctified through here, but missed the open Door. You see it? Justified by faith through Luther; sanctified through Wesley's age...
Many of them precious Nazarene, Pilgrim Holiness, Wesleyan Methodist, and so forth, all of them live a good, clean life, sanctified, and think it's got the Holy Ghost; and hear a fellow speak in tongues, or something, they'll laugh at him, make fun of him, and say it's of the devil. Brother, you've sealed your doom when you did that. You blasphemed the Holy Ghost, which is unpardonable.
Well, you say, "We belong to the First church." I don't care how many churches you belong to, has nothing to do with the Word of God that don't take nor add. That's right, "Synagogues of Satan..."
