<TITLE>14. Par 58-62</TITLE>L-58 So we realize. And now, I'm not going to keep you like I did last night if I can possibly help it. Friends, I only speak by inspiration, and can only say as He says say. And that's how it takes my a long time sometimes.
But I--I want you to notice, that God in all generations all down through the Bible, He's always had His time that when He sent His signs, wonders, and gifts amongst the people. And so that in the great general resurrection He could be just. For He can stand a man here... Don't you try to deny it then. "For here stands the person that He spoke to you through and you're without excuse," what He said about the queen there, you know.

L-59 Now, and any time that God ever sent a gift to the world and the people received it, they become... It was a golden age for them. But when they rejected it, they went into chaos, and disaster, and into punishment. Now, you Bible historians, our... Just speak when one time that they ever rejected God's gifts and His signs and they ever prospered.
One time, when they were going to battle, he spoke... God spoke to them, said, "If you wish to prosper, do My prophets no harm. Believe My prophets if you want to prosper." Well now, we know that if this United States of America would accept the gift of God that sent to it... Which out of America has went evangelists and missionaries that started a healing revival worldwide, as the Angel of the Lord, thirty-one years ago spoke down there at the river when that Light, Pillar of Fire hung there.

L-60 And the papers packed it, "Mystic Light appearing over local Baptist minister," a boy, while baptizing five hundred at the Ohio River. And He said, "As John the Baptist was sent to forerun the first coming of Christ, this message shall forerun the second." Here we are. Has it did it? See? From there it sparked Oral Roberts, Tommy Hicks, the Osborn, and so forth; around and around the world they went. See? It's did it.
Notice, now, if America would receive God's gift, it would be a golden age for us. If all of the American churches would accept God's gift... What is God's gift to the church? The Holy Ghost. What if all the American people that believed in Christ would receive the Holy Ghost? They wouldn't have to wonder who's going to be in the sputnik, or who's going to be in a machine a hundred and eighty miles around. That church would be in glory before they could get a sputnik started. That's--that's right.

L-61 And you don't have to worry about... Now, they're so scared. Why, if they... If we would receive God's gift to us, why, we wouldn't have to try to dig holes to hide from the atomic bomb and put all this newscast out to build a shelter to get into.
I want to ask you something. They claim that this new hydrogen bomb... And that's the only ones we know of. We don't know what they got back the sleeve. But they can stand in Moscow, Russia, and time a bomb right on this building by the stars, and guide it by radar, and got them placed to every major nation, and every major city in the world. Just pull on a string, and there she goes. Somebody's going to drink too much vodka one day; there it'll be.

L-62 And every nation standing, "We got the same thing." And one of them bombs is going to get into somebody's radar screen one of these days, and there she goes. And that could happen before morning. But before that happens, the church is going up. That's right. So if that's that close, how close if the coming of Christ? This has to go before that happens.
I don't believe that church goes through the tribulation. I don't believe the Scriptures support it. I... Now, if I'm different, you all just throw that out as the bone off the chicken, as I said, or a seed out the... See?
