<TITLE>15. Par 50-53</TITLE>L-50 Notice. What if that tutor that taken care of the child back under the Old Testament, oh, if that child was just like the father. My, everything the father said, "Yes, that's it. Amen. That's true. We'll do it that way." How that tutor must have walked up before the father and said, "Your son is a wonderful boy. Just the things that you do, that's exactly the way he does it too. I don't care how, you got some bosses and superintendents out there. But oh, my, they don't bother him. He's stands right exactly like you do. Amen."
How that father must say, "That's my son. I'm proud of him. Yes, sir, he's my son. Someday I'll show the world that he's my son." All right. He don't pay no attention to straw bosses. He stays right with what the father said.

L-51 And how the Holy Spirit today must feel when He goes before the--the Father and says, "Why, You know what? Your--Your--Your women's wearing makeup. They're bobbing their hair. Your men... Your brother, children is organizing their churches just as tight as the rest of them. And they won't cooperate with one another, and all these things." How He must feel. How the... How God must feeled about His church. How it must be a disgrace.
"Why," He said, "I thought I told them to stay out of Sodom."
"But they went right back in it, Father." Just like Lot for a few nickels and better place to worship, and a bigger building, and finer chairs, and a better dressed preacher, and one like this that can say, "Amen," real well, and went off and got Ph.D., LL.D. behind his name, and they can tell the rest of them all about this.

L-52 God don't care a nickels worth about that. He wants a man that's filled with power and the Holy Ghost, that'll stand and tell and the truth, regardless it shook the hide off of them. That's right. But where do we fine it? Everybody's got a meal ticket and a Cadillac. Something's wrong somewhere. Something's wrong somewhere. That's the reason the church is rocking today the way it is, because it's off the foundation.
What happened when that son then became in the Old Testament? Like to stay there a little while. We'll have to get back to it later. But now, what if that son then, was a good boy, stayed exactly like the father ordained it to be.
If the Bible said one thing, he stayed right with It. Whatever the Bible said, he stays right with It. Regardless of what it is, no matter what the rest of them believe, all the straw bosses, he stays with the main boss; he stays with what God said. God said, "Let every man's word be a lie and Mine be the Truth." I don't care what comes or what goes, stay right with that. And we know that the Bible predicts that the Pentecostal age will become a lukewarm, spued out of God's mouth. We know that that's what the Bible said. Exactly right. Now, we got to face it; it's here. Now.

L-53 Well, now if this son is a good son, then one day we have what we call in the Scripture in the Old Testament, a placing of a son. Or it's called sometimes, "the law of adoption." Now, this same son that was born into the family, and he never... he came... His--his name's no good on the check. We call it like that. His name's no good out there yet. He's never had the law of adoption done to him yet. But when it comes to the time for the law of adoption, the father takes his son out into a public place, and sets him up on a place, and dresses him in a certain robe, and performs what's knowed as the placing of a son, or the law of adoption. And now, when this son is adopted into his own family, from then on, this son is given power. He's gifted, then his name's just as good as father's is on the check, because he's the boss. He's over the straw bosses. God gives him things that none of straw bosses knowed nothing about, because he's a son. That's right.
