<TITLE>01. Par 1-5</TITLE>61-0122, As The Eagle Stirs Her Nest, American Legion Hall, Beaumont, TX, 95 min
L-1 Thank you very much. The Lord bless you, brothers and sisters. So happy to be back in the Tabernacle again this afternoon, church. You know... You say, "Well, this is not a church. This is the Legion building." It's a church while the church is in here. And God is in His church. Is that right? God is in His people. So His people is His church.
So here we are, all setting together in heavenly places in Christ Jesus, enjoying blessed fellowship while the Blood of Jesus Christ God's Son cleanseth us from all uncleanliness. Isn't that wonderful? Just free at any time the Lord want to call us, we just take a little flight and jump right into heaven, just in about two seconds after we're gone. isn't that fine? What blessed assurance.

L-2 I was speaking some time ago in a Christian Business Men in, I believe it was in Tijuana. No, I beg your pardon. It was at--at Jamaica, Kingston, Jamaica. And they had all the celebrity and a lot of the Cubans up there. And that night somebody said to me, after I got through speaking, said... We'd... We hold our services on the race track, but I went down in some big place with the celebrity, you know, to speak that night. And he said, "Say," he said, "you're--you're that preacher up here, aren't you?"
And I said, "Yes, sir."
He said, "What you doing down here with these business men?"
I said, "I am a business man."
"Oh," said, "I didn't know."
I said, "Yeah, I'm a business man."
Said, "What kind of a business you in?"
I said, "Insurance business."
He said, "What kind of an insurance business?"
I said, "Eternal Life insurance." [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.] I'm still in the business. Now, if anybody here is interested in talking over a policy with me, I'd be glad to talk with you at any time: Eternal Life insurance.
I went to school with a boy, Wilmer Snyder, very fine chap.

L-3 Book of Deuteronomy 32:11...
As the eagle stirreth up her nest, fluttereth over her young... taketh up on her wings, and beareth them up.
Now, the subject that I give out to speak on today was, "The Eagle Stirring Her Nest--As The Eagle Stirs Her Nest." And so I won't keep you too long now, that there'll be time you can get ready and go to church. You have a good service this morning, everybody? Oh...

L-4 [Blank.spot.on.tape--Ed.]... likened His heritage to an eagle. You know, I got to reading about eagles one time, and I find out there's about forty different kinds of eagles; and about eight different kinds are mentioned in the Bible.
Some of them... They claim as the--that some of them were vultures because they eat carrion, but that was wrong. I would just different with the man that wrote, because I know eagles. Eagles only eat live meat. Vultures eat--eat carrion. But a real eagle kills his own meat. He has to have it fresh, just like the grizzly bear and the black bear. The black bear is a scavenger. He--he eats carrion. But--but the grizzly bear, he has to kill fresh every night or when he's going to eat, he eats.
And so is the eagle. A eagle gets fresh meat. He doesn't want anything that's stale, or left over, or hand-me-downs. He--he wants to get his--his own meat.

L-5 So we are looking in the face of a great subject and a great bird. And I have always loved the eagle, though he's caused me a lot of trouble. He's eat up a many deer that I kill, but I--I still got a respect for him. He's a bird of prey. And the very word "eagle" itself means "ripper with the beak." He rips with his beak and then feeds.
And that's a good way to look at a--a call of God, because God feeds with His mouth, and His mouth is His Word, where His Word comes forth. And He likened His heritage, us, unto His eaglets. And He Himself is Jehovah Eagle. Did you know that? God claims Himself to be Jehovah Eagle. He's a Eagle Himself. He's Papa Eagle, and we're little eaglets, His children.
