<TITLE>27. Par 226-231</TITLE>L-226 Just like the Book of Matthew, 28:19, "Go ye therefore, and teach all nations, baptizing them in the Name of the Father, Son, Holy Ghost," and Father's not a name, and Son's not a name, and Holy Ghost is not a name. How you going to baptize them? Which one of them names you going to baptize in, when they're none of them names? Then what? You ain't going to baptize in any name then. That's School of Prophets again. See?
Then you come back to this place over here, and you take over here, and run it back, and go back to Matthew 1, what'd you do? Just pull that right back and take it back here:
Now, the birth of Jesus Christ was on this wise:.. (not three Gods now. See?)... When... his mother... was espoused to Joseph, 'fore they came together, she was found with a child of the Holy Ghost. (Not God the Father, the Holy Ghost. Huh?)
... all this was done, that...
And Joseph her husband... a just man,... not willing to make her a publick example, was minded to put her away privily, on these things.
... while he thought on it, behold, the angel of the Lord appeared to him in a dream, saying, Joseph, thou son of David, fear not to take unto thee Mary thy wife: for that which is conceived in her is of the... (God the Father?)... the Holy Ghost.
I thought God the Father was His father. I'm saying this because of baptism coming up. See? I thought God the Father was His father. Now, either the Holy Ghost and God the Father is the same One, or He had two fathers; then He's a bastard child, and then what kind of a God have we got? See, see?
And this was all done, that it might be fulfilled... was spoken of the Lord by the prophet,...
... a virgin shall conceive and bear a son,... they shall call his name Jesus,... (That right?)... And He'd be called Emmanuel, which... is, God with us.

L-229 Now, see, when He pulled back the seal, what is the whole thing from Matthew the 1st chapter go back? Why, it was Jesus Christ. That's exactly what Peter said on the day of Pentecost. That's what all the rest of them said.
'Course this bunch of Romans had to come along and say, "Oh, no. We got to have three Gods. We got..." They got ten thousand of them now: there's Marys, and Saint Cecilias, and Saint Marcus, and Saint So-and-so. And I think there's five hundred and something in Mexico City. A woman got killed sometime ago by some of her lovers, and they got in a fight over her, and they killed her, so they make her a saint, and people doing repentance to her, and everything like that: spiritualism.

L-231 And here the Protestant church comes around with what they call the Apostles' Creed, "I believe in God the Father Almighty, preserver of heavens and earth, and the--and the holy Roman Catholic church. And I believe in the intercession of saints, communion of saints." Protestants saying it under the oath of God, that he believes in the communion of saints. That's spiritualism. See? Then they go ahead and do it, sure, 'cause the church said so. (O God, how glad I am to know what I know. How glad I am to know what I know.) Not realizing they're sealing theirself just plumb away from God, out into darkness out yonder. And you can't tell them, because they can't absolutely see it.
