<TITLE>11. Par 43-46</TITLE>L-43 There's where we see the defeat of the Pentecostal movement, because they get away from the Word. The Word will say one thing; they'll try to make that organization come in there somewhere; and they'll walk right away from that Word, and take it right in with the organization. Can you see where it's gone to? It's almost like the rest of the churches. But then we dance and shout, and speak in tongues, and jump up-and-down. Them's all right. Your organization's all right. I hope I made myself clear. But the thing is that still small voice of the Word speaking forth. That's it.

L-44 You go through a test. God tests you like He did Abraham. He tests Abraham's seed after him. And now, the reason that we don't possess the gate of the enemy, the reason there's so much among us is because that we're not able to stand the test. And let me tell you something, a test of the Word is right.
The reason that we do not have, and we never will have in the organization... I think Pentecost has got some fine organizations. Some of the finest men that lays--lives on the face of the earth belongs in them--them organizations. Assemblies of God, I got friends in there. My. A brother right there in Indiana I'm going to have a meeting, I believe away--right away, Brother Roy Weed, he's a district man of the state of Indiana. I believe that to be a godly man. Yet he's a district man of the Assemblies of God. Foursquare? Oh, my. How many... Rolph McPherson, and many of those brothers who are godly men, nothing on their lives, they're good men... Over in to the Oneness, what they call themselves, Oneness, or not... I don't... think they call it the Jesus' Name church... Jack Moore, just calling one out of a--out of... There's hundreds of them, fine men, good men, godly men.

L-45 But the thing of it is, brother, is this: when you hang to that organization... See? God takes those organizations and they're every one fallen. Look at them, worldliness creeping in. Look at their women; look at their men; look at their condition. I could point you Assemblies of God people that's got deacons on their board that's married two or three times. Preachers carrying on, women with their hair cut, wearing shorts, makeup, and still professing to have the Holy Ghost, depending on the evidence of speaking in tongues or jumping up-and-down or shouting. They failed that still small voice of the Word. That Word keeps you bound to the cross. That's where it lays.

L-46 That's why we don't have genuine prophets in the church today like Agabus. That's why the church today, they--they hardly respect speaking in tongues when somebody speaks, because they heard so much bogus and carry on till they don't know what is right and wrong in it.
Interpretations that's just merely illusions, somebody just saying something because he feels led. That's not interpretation. Interpretation--not somebody stands and speaks in tongues, another one gets up in a few minutes and--and interpret what he said. When one's a speaking, the other's interpreting right there saying word by word, same expression and everything, the same. This man might be prophesying, but it isn't interpretation. Some of them... this kind of a voice giving something that's back here giving something else to some say ten words, another say fifty words behind it for an interpretation. Interpret means to say word by word. If it's a Word of God, it's got to come word by word, line upon line, line upon line. That's the way the Word's got to come. But what have we seen, so much bogus...
And they did that in order... Instead of staying with the Word, they packed that down there. As soon as a man did that, they called him a Pentecostal. And you know what happens. When the test comes, the testing time, then the seed begins--just shows which is seed and which is not.
