<TITLE>14. Par 39-41</TITLE>L-39 Oh, there was some standing there, didn't believe that. The rabbi's of that day, they stood there; they knowed they had to answer to their congregation. There's no way around it. The people are standing there and saw it done. And they knowed the Scriptures taught that's what the Messiah would be. So they had to answer to the people.
What did they say? They never said it out loud, but in their hearts they said, "This Man is Beelzebub, a fortuneteller, or some evil spirit. (See?) He's the prince of the devil, a fortuneteller, and that's how He does these things is by His fortunetelling."
What did Jesus say? He said, "I'll forgive you for that, but someday, the Holy Spirit will come, and speak one word against That, it'll never forgiven in this world, nor the world to come." See where we place ourselves in.
Calling... What is the blasphemy of the Holy Ghost? Calling the Spirit of God, which was doing exactly what the Bible predicted It would do, a demon power. There's never forgiveness for it, nor this world, nor the one to come. And Jesus cannot lie, because He was God. And it's impossible for God to lie. God was in Him.
He said, "It's not Me; it's My Father dwells in Me." The Son was a Man; God was the Spirit that was in Him, and it was the Spirit speaking out of Him.
Now, see what He done to them Jews? When He met them, them were ordained to Life recognized it. Don't miss it church. Those that were ordained to Life recognized It and believed It. But those who did not believe It was turned away to perdition. Did not Jesus say to those holy sanctified men, who knowed the Scriptures from A to Z, or claimed to, He said, "You're of your father the devil." That's exactly right.

L-40 So don't place sin on smoking, drinking, gambling; that's not sin; that's the attributes of unbelief. Sin is unbelief. You might never touched a cigarette, drank, or never done anything evil in your life; if you disbelieve God's Word, you're still a sinner. Sin is unbelief. There's only two spirits; one believes and the other does not believe. Matter, we have based all of our thoughts upon some kind of a holy act, something we've want to do, and something that we've done. "I give Jones' some coal, when they were... I got a right to a heaven." You haven't got no right to heaven, till you've believe God, accept it by the basis of faith upon the shed Blood of Jesus Christ the Son of God. Have no rights, for no other way, no matter...
You might be a staunch member, Pentecostal to the core, Methodist, Baptist, or Catholic to the core; makes no difference what church you belong to. If you've solemnly believed on Jesus Christ, and accepted Him as you--your personal Saviour, and your faith's in Him. I don't care what church you go to, you're saved by faith. And without that, there's... There's no holy church; there's no holy people. It's the Holy Spirit in the people, what makes it holy. A holy God that lives amongst people, what makes the holiness. Not something that I do, something that you do, or something that we would've done, but it's what God has done for us, through Christ Jesus. That's the Bible.

L-41 Watch the Jews. They believed it solemnly, some of them that were ordained to life; others, staunch orthodox in their belief's broad backed, they wouldn't even wouldn't make a letter. They were... Had to come through lineage of priesthood, down, down, down, down, from grandfather to grandfather, grandfather to be a Levite, to be a teacher. But they'd been taught in a tradition, in the stead of the real Word.
Jesus said, "Your the father... Your father is the devil."
Those poor little fishermen, humble, who would receive and believe, who'd been taught and knowed that what the Messiah would be, they recognized it at the moment they saw it and believed it. Said, "Truly Thou art the Son of God, truly, Rabbi, we know that Thou art a Teacher comes from God."
