<TITLE>19. Par 67-69</TITLE>L-67 The baby when it was born, the father was busy about things, so he hired the best tutor he could hire to raise the child. And then the tutor brought the word to the father how the child was progressing. Is that right, brethren? We know in Galatians there and different places where the Scripture speaks of it. And it was called "placing of a son." Now listen just for a few more minutes.
Now, what if the tutor come up... Now, remember the father found the... If he loved that boy, he'd give him the best tutor he could find. You believe that? That was His son. Now, he didn't want to buy a--get a tutor there would want to put a straw in his hat and tell him a lie about the child. He wanted to know exactly what was going on with that child. So he hired a real good tutor. And the tutor would come up. Now if the father...
If the boy was progressing and doing fine, how the tutor must have felt, walk up and say, "Say, fine." But what if that tutor would just, what if that boy was just a renegade, wouldn't pay no attention, wouldn't do nothing about the father, how the tutor must felt when come up and say, "Yes, sir, he's not doing too good. No, sir, he... I--I--I'm sorry, but he's not doing too good."

L-68 Now, to you lukewarm church member, I'm going to pour it on you good. What do you think when God put His child here, the church, what kind of a tutor did God get for him? a bishop? Huh? a pope? Who did He send to raise His child? The Holy Ghost. Bishop will pull punches and want a straw in his hat to be archbishop and--and all kind of state seers, and all these other kinds things, but the Holy Ghost will bring the true message before the Father. Yes, sir.
So how do you think the Holy Ghost must feel when He comes up before the Father and saying, "Your Pentecostal women cut their hair, Father. They're wearing makeup like the rest of them are. They don't go to prayer meeting no more. Your sons won't preach against it." What's the matter? What's the matter? "Oh, they've went the big building programs. And they won't realize that I said, 'I'm going to prepare a place for you.'" Yeah, they become earthbound. Yeah, they want to have the biggest organization, they want...?... Yeah. No, they--they--they won't tell the women that; they won't tell the men that; they're afraid to, 'cause they're good paying on the plate." How He must blush, the Holy Spirit walk away from God. Shame on us. How He must do it. How can He ever give that son anything? You know what happens to that son? He's always a son. Sure, yes, sir, but he has no inheritance.

L-69 Paul said, "Lest I preach the Gospel and be a castaway myself..." He doesn't come into inheritance. That boy's always a son, but he's just a renegade son. But what? And Tutor walks up and says, "Hey, you know what? That boy of Yours is a...?... Excuse the expression. I hope it ain't sacrilegious. He's a chip off the old block. You know what? He's just exactly like You. He does just as exactly the same thing You did. He... I'll tell you when he sees anything wrong he stands right there and calls it out. You can put confidence in him."
Now, the father...?... and say, "Yeah, that's my son. That's my son." I'm still on Abraham's seed now. I ain't left that; I'm staying with that. "That's my son." You know what the father does after that boy becomes--proved to a boy?
"Well, say, the Bible said, this, but--but of course, now the--the state presbyter will put me out if I preach that. They--they--they... If I tell them to receive the Holy Ghost yet. Oh, oh...?..." It would do... They don't believe in that."
"I believe in sanc..."
