<TITLE>19. Par 67-70</TITLE>L-67 You remember, the Bible said that all--the antichrist in the last days, which was the religious organizations... I'm going to get to that this week, the Lord willing, or next time, see (all right), and prove it's the antichrist. The Bible says so. That's right. "And he deceived all that dwelt upon the earth whose names were not written in the Lamb's Book of Life, slain from the foundation of the world." That's when it was. See?
Now, them, "All the Father hath (past tense) given Me will come to Me. My sheep know My voice." Not because of a breed or a race, but, "My sheep know My voice." Now, watch.
Now, you say that's Calvinistic. I'm not a Calvinistic now. I believe that security goes with the church. Exactly right. But if you're in the church, you're secured with it. But are you in the church, the next thing? Now, that's it. Not because you say you are, that don't put you there.

L-68 Now, but, notice, brother, leaving that subject we go back to the Samaritan woman. Now, watch what He said there. Now, she said, "Why, certainly. We know that's the Messiah. He will do that sign when He comes."
Now, before Jesus left (in the Book of Saint Luke), He said, "As it was in the days of Sodom, so shall it be in the coming of the Son of man." Did you ever hear that? Now, let's... He said first about Noah's time; He said Noah's eating, drinking, marrying, giving in marriage, but in Sodom... Now, let's watch.

L-69 Now, there's always three classes of people. Watch them close. Now, Sodom exactly represented the three classes of people as was of Noah's time, when the world was destroyed by water. Now, in Sodom it was destroyed by fire. Is that right? Now, notice. There was three classes of people and three Messengers. Now, Abraham represented "His own." Say it again: His own. Abraham and his group was out of Sodom, and the very word "church" means "called out, separated."
Lot took his choice with his organizations, and went down there, and became the mayor of the city. And His wife belonged to all the society, and put on a Hollywood style, and so forth. See what happened to her? She still stands there as a pillar of salt. Now, but there she desired to be Hollywood. You see? She wanted to be like the rest of the world.
But Sarah was the most beautiful woman in all the world, and she took her choice with her husband and lived out there on the poor of the land, so she could serve God and be heir of the promise. What a difference.

L-70 Now, when things was going hard, not great big, fine things, but going hard... One day Abraham was setting in the shade of the oak, and he looked out there... Must've been along about noontime, and he seen three Men coming, dust all over Their clothes. (Now, hold that two Scriptures now.) Now, he seen Them, dust all over Their clothes. And he walked up. And Abraham, being spiritual and waiting to see that promise, quickly (he was the "called out") he recognized it. There was something strange about them Men.
Oh, of course They might've said, "How do you do, sir? We're Strangers. We've come from a foreign land."
He went to meet them, said, "Come over and set down under the tree. I'd like to talk with You just a minute. Let me fetch a little water and wash Your feet, and give You a morsel of bread. Then You can go on your way. Set down. That's why You come by this way. God sent You this way so I could--I could do this for You."
"Well," they said, "Go, so be it," and went and set down.
