<TITLE>10. Par 41-44</TITLE>L-41 I don't mean to be sacrilegious by saying this. The old colored fellow, eating watermelon... They give him a slice of it. Fixed it all up, and he eat it. And it just slid down it like that, and beat the seeds out of the side of his mouth. Said, "How did you like that Mose?"
He looked at the other big part of it, you know, where that one little piece come out; he said, "Boss, it was good, but there's some more of it." So that's the way it is. These organizations is all right, but there's some more of it, more of it. That's what we want, more of it.

L-42 Yes, "Ever learning, never able to come to the knowledge of the truth; heady, high-minded, lovers of pleasures more than lovers of God, trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, and despisers of those that are good." Did you notice that? At the beginning of the chapter, said, "The Spirit speaks expressingly, that in the last days..." that would be the condition. In the last days, men should be lovers of their self, proud, boasters, blasphemers, oh, unholy, without natural affections, not even natural affections. "Trucebreakers, false accusers, incontinent, and despisers of those that are good, having a form of godliness..." Now, that is God's Word, and It has to be fulfilled. "Having a form of godliness, but denying the power thereof."
Don't you see, they've got away from that certain sound. They took an uncertain sound. Come in and said, "The... We joined church. We were baptized and we put our name on the book." Now, that's a uncertain sound.

L-43 And one of the biggest hypocrites in the world is to have a sound that's almost like a real sound and just got enough about it not to be the right sound. The biggest lie that was ever told, is one that's got a whole lot of truth to it, and then right at the end, it's got a lie.
That's the way that Satan told Eve. She was deceived by it. The woman didn't mean to be, but she was deceived, because it sounds so truthful. See?
And when they tell you, you can just join church and be all right, or be sprinkled, or baptized a certain thing, or do something, it'll be all right, that's--that's not it, brother.
A man's got to be borned again of the water and of the Spirit and filled with the Holy Ghost. See? Then he's a new creature. Then you've got a certain sound that sounds right.

L-44 Now, when the sound comes in, it changes the hearing conditions in your ears. See? Before, you couldn't hear. Now you can hear it. Somebody preaching about Divine healing, the power of God you'd set there, just uncircumcised in the ears as you could be, couldn't hear a thing. "My pastor don't believe that. I believe that's fanaticism." But when another sound comes, like a rushing mighty wind, and circumcises those ears, then that's a beautiful sound, when you go to hearing that sound of the rushing mi...
Oh, first thing you know, it brings springs of joy to your soul, and you holler, "Amen. That's right. Preach it, Brother. Hallelujah. That's good." See? It's got you moving then; you're going somewhere.
