<TITLE>20. Par -</TITLE>L-30-2 But, "Sirs, we would see Jesus." That was the question, "We wouldn't see a creed; we wouldn't see Methodists; we wouldn't see Baptists. We wouldn't see any of these; we want to see Jesus."
But what's the matter? (I just got to close, my brethren. Listen closely now, just a few comments here before we close. What? I want to make this drive home now if I can, tack the thing down.)

L-30-4 The Greeks wanted to see Jesus. He never found Him in Christmas, never found Him in some organization, never found Him in some creed; He never pointed them to such. Have you got that well? But He pointed them to the cross to die, to die. A real disciples says, "You've got to die." "How do I know when I'm dead?" When you recognize all this Word to be the Truth, then the Word begins to live in you.
"Well," you say, "but our church teaches..." I don't care what your church teaches; it's what the Bible says. Where you're going to? The other churches teaches something different, but this Bible teaches the same.

L-30-6 As Jesus said, "Whenever you accept this Word, this Word will be made manifested in you. It'll do the same thing that It says It'll do in you."
Oh, they say, "The days of miracles is past."
And the Bible said, "Jesus the same yesterday, today, and forever." How you going to make that meet, when Jesus said, "He that believeth on Me anywhere any time..." Mark 16 said, "Go ye into all the world and preach the Gospel to every creature." How long? To all the world. Has never even got there yet. Every creature... "He that believeth and is baptized shall be saved. He that believeth not shall be damned. And these signs shall follow them that believe..." There you are. The Word will be made Light. It'll shine Itself forth.

L-31-1 Not if you go to the cradle and say, "A little baby was born here long years ago." Nonsense. All kinds of creeds and fables told about it; we know Jesus knowed all that thing would perish and get all mixed up. But there's one thing isn't mixed up; that's the Holy Spirit.

L-31-2 Oh, one of them say, "He was borned right here. We got a church built over it."
Other one said, "He was borned over here." Like... You know how many nails they got, can prove it, original nails that was in the cross? Nineteen. Each fellow holding a nail...
"This, we got it; Hallelujah, we got it." They just got some dead bones of some... "We got it. We got it. This is the place He was born in."
Other say, "This is the place He was born in."
They say, "This is the place He was born." What difference does it make? Here's where He was born, in the heart. Amen. When I died, He was borned again--I was borned again in Him new. And that's it. Sirs, we would see Jesus. All right.

L-31-3 Well, what's the matter? He got lost again. People's lost Him. That's right. But He's been lost again in the big crowds, the crowds of creeds.
You remember one time He got lost to His parents? He's lost again. He got lost. Go down these streets, like it's been the last few days, look at the mad crowds, pushing and shoving, and drinking, and cursing, and damning: "Jingle bells, jingle bells..." Christ is lost. He ain't lost; the people's lost Him. Where did they find Him? Where they lost Him at. That's where we'll find Him. But He's lost in their creeds and in the crowds.
