<TITLE>29. Par 217-225</TITLE>L-217 Now remember, the devil takes a whole lot of that Word, pretty near ninety-nine and ninety-nine percent of It. Ninety-nine hundredths and ninety-nine percent of that hundredths, he'll make It just exactly right, but then he'll jump off here, and that's the one that causes death right there. That breaks the chain right in the middle; down you go.
Every Word. What did Jesus say? "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word." Not by a few of God's Words shall he live, not by ninety-nine and ninety-nine percent of God's Word. But by every Word that proceedeth out of the mouth of God, man shall live by That.
Satan took Him up there and said, "It's written." See, just like he said to Eve, "It's written. It's written."
Jesus said, "And it's also written..."
He said, "It's written, 'He'll give the Angels charge over Thee.' The Bible said so." Boy, he's a scholar. "It's written, 'He'll give His Angels charge concerning Thee lest Thou dash Thy foot against a stone, and bear Thee up.'"
He said, "It's also written, 'Thou shalt not tempt the Lord Thy God.'"

L-222 They said, "We got the Scripture," Acts 19, "we've been baptized by John."
Paul had something else; he said, "that don't work no more." See? "John only baptized..." He didn't disbelieve John's word. He said, "I'll tell you what John said. John said he baptized unto repentance, not for remission of sins." The Sacrifice hadn't been killed. See? He said, "He baptized unto repentance, saying you should believe on Him that was to come." And when they heard this, they were baptized in the Name of our Lord Jesus Christ. Paul laid his hands upon them so full of the Word, and the Holy Ghost came upon them. They begin to prophesy, speak in tongues, magnify God, and what a time. Oh, my. How big a church was it? Twelve. Oh, yes. Oh, God don't deal in big numbers; He deals in honest hearts. Let us have that kind of a heart. Do you love Him? Let us pray.

L-224 Oh, my beloved wanderer, have you looked at the daughters of Moab or have you seen the daughters (I'm talking of churches.) of Cain, how far off of the Word they stray? Have you, my precious friend, have you noticed in the last days that these things has come to pass? Have you been noticing recently about how the Word of God is being made manifest, how that the revival that did once strike has quietened down, there's not much left? What is it? It's a lull before the storm. The judgments are ready. Have you been denoting these things? Have you compared Scripture with Scripture, Bible Word with Bible Word, evidence with evidence? Have you compared the Word of Jesus that He said that the devil in the last days would be so close like the real thing, till if it was possible he would deceive everyone except the elected, the Elected One.
Just think, that Scriptural teaching is going to be so close. "Oh, we believe in the Holy Ghost; bless God forever. We got the Holy Ghost; we speak in tongues." And then turn around and deny the Word? Yeah. Will deceive the very elected if possible...

L-225 If there is someone in here that's not right with God, if there's someone here that's sick or afflicted... There's handkerchiefs and things laying here; I'm going to pray over. them. I don't care what you have need of. Every promise in the Book belongs to you. It's yours.
Now, I've brought you the Word, brought It from Genesis plumb down to this day that we're living in, just hitting the places and showing you. Many hundreds of places I could've hit besides that, I don't have time. But surely, in that, you can see that this organization stuff is out. It's a false conception of the devil, trying to organize man with the unity of their own mind and thinking. When it's the Holy Spirit that we're joined to God as one by. And the Holy Spirit agrees with the Word of God. See, the Bible said... Jesus said that they'd even confess it, you see, "Deceive the very elected if possible." You see where we're standing?
