<TITLE>10. Par 32-35</TITLE>L-32 Now, that same man that had the keys, turned right back around ten days after Jesus said this, and said, "Repent and be baptized every one of you in the name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins." Did you ever stop to think that Jesus would give a man that would be that scrupled up, the keys to the kingdom, that would turn around and do vice versa what He said what to do? The God of heaven manifested in flesh, and would turn the keys over to a man that would make a mistake like that? The very first shot at the target would do a thing like that? No. All right, now, now just... Now, now notice. He couldn't do that.

L-33 But why did He give them keys to Peter, then? He just plainly quoted it. "Peter, you never learned this from some church or some seminary, but it was a revelation that come from heaven, and upon this same revelation from heaven, to straighten out the Word of God, I will build My church." He knowed Peter. He didn't know mathematics. Peter didn't know algebra, perhaps, or neither did he know geometry, or... I think it said that he was an ignorant and a unlearned man, according to Acts the fourth chapter, or Acts the third chapter, I believe. Said, "Perceiving that they were both ignorant and unlearned (He and John, as they healed the man at the gate called Beautiful), but taken notice that they had been with Jesus."
So you see, he didn't lay it upon his seminary theology that He could reveal this to him. Not upon his seminary experience, 'cause he had none. He doesn't yet today. But He reveals it, see, to the one that had the revelation of it. Therefore, He could trust it to Peter. He might not have been able to trust it to Matthew, or to John, or to the rest of them. But Peter had the revelation.

L-34 So then, Peter turns around and says, "Repent and be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ, every one of you, in the name of Jesus Christ (See?), for the remission of sins and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost. The promise is unto you." The man that had the keys that unlocked the kingdom for the first time, turn it around and doing vice versa what Jesus said not to do. Now, it's either he was wrong, he made a mistake, he didn't follow out our Lord's..., or, or either he had a revelation of truth that the rest of them... which, which was beyond what any of the rest of them had.

L-35 Now, let's just stop before we go back, just a minute. If it would've been wrong, why did God recognize it then, and command all the rest of them, down through the Bible, to be baptized in the name of Jesus Christ." And every person in the Bible was baptized in the name of Jesus Christ. And if every person up to the organization of Catholic church, was baptized in the name of Jesus Christ... At the Nicene Council they formed this baptism of Father, Son, Holy Ghost, making a triune God out of one true God, to bring in their, their trinity...
