<TITLE>08. Par -</TITLE>L-10-3 So we do have death under our control through Jesus Christ, Who's overcome death, hell, grave, sickness, sorrows, everything else, triumphed over all. And we are now risen with Him, setting in heavenly places, spiritually speaking, in Christ Jesus with all things under our feet. Even the physical resurrection is under our feet, 'cause we're in Christ. Does--do you get it? If you do, raise your hands. Amen. That's good. Just as long as you get it, that's fine. See? Don't let... Now, just keep keeping it in your mind. See? We have passed from death unto Life. Physical, spiritual, every way, and everything, and all things belongs to us now.

L-10-4 Why the world out here is saying we're crazy, yet the whole earth belongs to us. How you going to inherit it? When--as I said, Abraham (See?), he was in the promised land; God gave it to him. Lot was taken by some renegade outlaws took away. (That was his nephew.) All right. Everything was in that land belonged to Abraham. So he wasn't a warrior; he never did fight. He didn't have any warriors with him; he had some servants. But when he seen that something--the devil had come and robbed him of something that was a promise to him, he armed his servants and took a arm himself.

L-10-5 He didn't know how he was going to overcome this whole company of kings, just a handful of servants; but God told him how to do it. And he divided himself and slaughtered the kings, and come back triumph. Why? He laid his faith upon God's promise that everything in that land was his, and Lot was part of it (That's right.), was part of the land. Oh, my. And there he met Melchizedek, after the battle was over. Couldn't you just see Abraham coming up the road? He didn't know he was a warrior, but he knowed then he was. Yes, sir, and he met the One Who gave the promise: Melchizedek.

L-11-1 Now, let's read out of the Book of Amos. I'm going to speak this morning (not six hours though; I hope not. See?) on a--on a subject that--"The Way of a True Prophet." And tonight, the Lord willing, I'm going to speak on, "Letting Off the Pressure," and so the--if the Lord willing.

L-11-2 Now, I am known to be a critic, but I'd--I--I am not critical, only anything that's wrong. See? But I... We should criticize wrong. Now, if you're going to turn your recorders on now in the room, why, all right. I want to read now from Amos the 3rd chapter--or the--yes, the 3rd chapter of Amos, just a portion of it: Amos 3.
Hear this word that the LORD has spoken against you, O children of Israel, against the whole family which I brought up from the land of Egypt, saying,
You only have I known of all the families of the earth: therefore I will punish You for... your iniquity.
Can two walk together, except they be agreed?
Will a lion roar in the forest, when he hath no prey? will a young lion cry out of his den, if he has taken nothing?
Can a bird fall in a snare upon the earth, where no gin is for him? shall one take up a snare from the earth, and have taken nothing at all?
Shall a trumpet be blown in the city, and the people not be afraid? shall there be evil in a city, and the LORD has not done it?
Surely the Lord... will do nothing, but he reveals his secrets unto his servants the prophets.
The lion has roared, who will not fear? the Lord GOD has spoken, who can but prophesy?
