<TITLE>06. Par 27-32</TITLE>L-27 And if we should have, any revelation should be presented to us that's contrary to the written Word, then we should never receive it, because that's exactly what Satan did to Eve. She had the Word, but she was hunting for some new light; and Satan seen to it that she got it. So we never want to add anything to the Word, or take anything from the Word; but just leave it the way it is. Stay right with the Word, for anything contrary is unbelief.

L-28 Now, we are knowing that in this last days and looking for it, have been, we brethren and ministers who are--try to live as close to God as we can, because we have a sacred duty to watch over the flock of God, which the Holy Spirit has made us overseers. We watch the flock to keep them in order, to feed them sheep's food. And sheep eats from the Bible, the lambs of God. Jesus said, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God," right on the Word.

L-29 And Paul said in Galatians 1:8, if an angel would bring any other Gospel to you than that which has already been given, then let him be accursed. See? How firm that commandment is, that we must stay right with the Word: don't move from It. See? And Eve just shadowly moved. "Perhaps, maybe, God would just overlook that."

L-30 We hear so much today about God being a good God. And that's true. He is a good God; we believe that. But He's also a God of judgment. In order to be good He has to bring judgment. To keep His law there must be... There must be penalty to law, or law is non-effected. If there's a law that says to run a stoplight is against the law, then if there's no penalty to that law to be executed, then the law is no good at all. Just might as well run it or anything you want to, 'cause there's no law.
But when you trespass across that Word of God to some creed or tradition, you have passed over that line between mercy and judgment. That's right. You must stay right in the Word--I like that--right with the Word. "Not one jot shall--or tittle shall in no wise pass away. Heavens and earth will pass away, but My word shall not fail." It's got to be.

L-31 How we could take hours here to go back and base how that--if we had time--of how that science, years passed by, has tried to ridicule the very thoughts of God, making themself some great name, some achievement that they could do themselves. But right while they are digging and trying to disprove the Word, God turns right around and let them dig up something to prove it.
So a few years ago when the Pentecostal church was born, they--they said, "It's a bunch of fanaticism. It'll never stand," not knowing that it was God's move.
God had to do that. That's the time for it. It's the age for it.

L-32 As I said somewhere not long ago in one of the meetings, maybe here, that John was so sure that was Jesus... Even before he saw the sign of the Messiah, that dove, God descending from heaven in the form of a dove, the Holy Spirit coming out of heaven, voice saying, "This is My beloved Son..." That was what he was supposed to see. The Father told him that in the wilderness. "Upon Whom thou shall see the Spirit..." But John was so sure.
They asked him, said, "Aren't you that Messiah? Are--aren't-aren't you prophet was to come? Aren't you this and that?"
He said, "I'm not." But said, "There's One standing among you now." See, he knew the time was so close until there--that One was already in the midst of the people, because he was to introduce Him, and he knew that He was there.
