<TITLE>30. Par -</TITLE>L-49-1 They called Louisville; here come trained men. Oh, how them sirens rang across there. And here's the chief captains along here of these fire departments say, "Spurt a little water up here; spurt a little water down here": untrained men. Brother, as soon as that engine stopped, who was at the head of the ladder? The captain. When that ladder went up, he went with it. When it struck the window (he hadn't got through the window yet), he grabbed his axe, and throwed it through the window, and said, "Come on, boys." The fire was out in a few minutes. A captain. He was not captain say, "Spurt a little water here; try a little bit here," but, "Come on, boys." Amen. He led the way; he showed us how it's done.
I thought, "That well-trained fire department, they had that fire out in a few minutes." Why? They had a captain there that knowed what he was doing.

L-49-3 Brother, talk about all your theology you want to, your man-made denominations, your organizations. Play with it. I got a Chief Captain told me how to do it.
Say, "Well, if I can smell it, feel it..."
Oh nonsense. Here's the way the Chief Captain said it's done in Luke the 4th chapter. I ain't got time to read it; read it yourself when... Luke the 4th chapter begin at the 1st verse. He never said, "Now, I tell you. You go over here, and you make a great organization; you get presbyters, and deacons, and--or you get cardinals and bishops and you get this." He never said that.
When Satan met Him, he said, "Now, you're hungry; turn these stones into bread."
He said, "It's written." Amen.
He said, "Up here, we'll take you up here and show you something."
"But It's written."
"I'll do this if you'll..."
"It's written."

L-49-5 That's how the Chief Captain said it was done. How is it done, sister? It's written: "If you lay hands on the sick they shall recover." It's written: "In My Name they shall cast out devils." Amen. What is it? It's written. That's the Captain's orders. It is written: "Whosoever heareth My words and believeth on Him that sent Me has Eternal Life." It's written; it's written; it's written; that's the--that's the orders; that's the soldier; that's the way; that's the artillery we move up.

L-50-1 What did he do? He walked right up there to a Goliath. He showed us. How did David show army how it was done? How did David show Israel how it was done? "David" means "beloved, Saviour." See? How did David do it? He said, "Here's the way it's done: trust in the Word of the Lord."
And Goliath come out there, said, "You know what? I'll pick you up on the end of this spear, and I'll feed you to the birds."
He said, "You meet me as an organization; you meet me as a modern scientist; you meet me with your great big fourteen foot sword; you meet me with a helmet of brass and with a piece of shield that I couldn't even lift off the ground; you meet me as a trained warrior; you meet me with Ph.D., and L.L.D. and double L.D.; you meet me in all these things; but I come in the Name of the Lord God of Israel, and today I'll cut your head from your shoulders." Amen.

L-50-4 That little bitty wart, coming out there against that giant, but he knowed where he was standing. Israel just shaking back there, "Oh, poor little fellow."
Goliath said, "I'll show you who--what I'll do," and here he come.
He had F-a-i-t-h (See?) i-n J-e-s-u-s, five rocks, five stones. One little stone in there to start it off with. Whirling it around like that, the Holy Ghost got a hold of the rock and away it went; and Goliath went to the ground. That's the way it's done.
That's the way Jesus said when He said, "Now, if you brethren is going out on the field, if you want to know how to conquer these devils, I'll show you how it's done."
