<TITLE>24. Par 76-78</TITLE>L-76 And how are we sealed into the Kingdom of God? Ephesians 4:30 says, "Grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby you are sealed until the day of your redemption." Amen. All bridges burnt behind you. "Grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby you are sealed (You're Abraham's seed.), until the day of your redemption." Oh, how I love that, God, giving confirmation of a sign that He had received his faith.
And what He'd say about how He would continue this faith of the seed? He tore Christ apart, took His body up and set it up there as a bloody sacrifice, setting at the right hand of God, making intercessions upon our confession: a High Priest that can be touched by the feeling of our infirmity, same yesterday, today, and forever. And His Spirit was upon Him is back in the church doing the same works that He did, carrying on the same thing, shaping up the church for that Headstone to come on it someday. Hallelujah.

L-77 Oh, I feel religious. Your going to call me holy-roller anyhow, so you might as well get started. Here it is up there. When I see the one perfect Man setting yonder, Governor and Ruler and God over all, the Top of the building, setting yonder in that pyramid, that great majes--great power, great God, coming down out of heaven, setting, moving Hisself right down among these stones setting there. And when Luther just had so much faith, Wesley just had so much, Pentecost just had so much, but He's binding those stones together where they fit stone by stone. Hallelujah. I see it in the making: God confirming by the Holy Spirit of God moving in the church and doing the same works and life that Jesus lived.

L-78 If it's a peach tree, it'll bring forth peaches. If it's a apple tree, it'll bring forth apples. I don't care how the outside looks; it shows the life on the inside of it, is what brings the fruit of it. You get a grapevine, you put pumpkin life into it, it'll bring forth pumpkins. And you change it right back and take a pumpkin vine and put grape life in it, it'll bring forth grapes. Whatever life is in, I don't care what title it's got, Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, Pentecostal, whatever it is... Take pumpkin life and it into a grapevine, it'll bring pumpkins. If this is a Pentecostal church, you got old pumpkin life into it, get it out and you have a vaccination come back. Amen. I see you got trees up here will bring about nine kinds of different citrus fruit, seen them over in Arizona the other day. There's an orange tree had lemons and all kinds of citrus fruit, grapefruit. That's the way it is.
Jesus said, "I am the Vine; and you're the branches." That's right. And if the first branch... Now, remember, the vine does not bear fruit; it's the branch that bears the fruit. Now, if that first branch come forth and produced a Pentecostal church, they wrote a book of Acts behind it, if that branch ever brings forth another one, it'll be the same kind of a Pentecostal church, have the same signs and same wonders.
