<TITLE>16. Par 60-63</TITLE>L-60 What am I saying? God's provided way, walk in God's provided way. He has provided us a Messenger, the Holy Ghost. He's provided us a Word. And if any spirit speaks contrary to the Word it can't be the Holy Ghost, 'cause the Holy Ghost wrote the Word. "In the beginning was the Word, the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh and dwelt among us." Hebrews 4:12: "The Word of God is sharper than a two-edged sword (cuts all the worldly flesh off of you), and is a Discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart. I will restore, saith the Lord, A way... A highway and a way, and it shall be called the way of holiness, the unclean shall not walk in it." Hallelujah.
You can't walk with Hollywood and with the church at the same time. You can't walk with God and the world at the same time. You can't love God and mammon at the same time.
What we need today is not more organization, more membership; but we need a church cleaning from the pulpit to the janitor, and a good old fashion Saint Paul's revival, and the Bible Holy Ghost, and people back walking in God's provided way. Amen. God has a provided way. Let's walk in it.
God promised when He was here on earth, He promised, "The works that I do shall you also." Jesus promised before, "As it was in the days of Lot, Sodom, so shall it be at the coming of the Son of man." What is it? God's provided way.

L-61 A bunch of disciples was out on the sea one time. They'd watched a great meeting that day, and seen a man that could break bread, tear it off, and lay it down, and another loaf of bread growed on to it: laying it down till he fed five thousand. My. They said, "That's got to be God. Nothing else could do that but God." There He was.
They were out on the ship in the sea. They'd went off without it--went off without Him. There they was, tossed about, and they didn't know what way to go. The oars were broke; the ship was waterlogged; the sails were tore down; and they had no way to get away from the power of Satan that was gushing in on them.

L-62 I wonder today if we ain't went off on a tantrum too, in the revival, to build new places, and scatter out and build new, big buildings, and preaching that the coming of Christ is at hand. Our own works testify against us. Oh, my, and missionaries without shoes on their feet. What's the matter, brother? Something's wrong. Notice at the condition though the church has got into. But God promised out of that He would restore, He would bring back, He'd make a way.

L-63 These disciples out there, all hopes was gone. They'd done give up. Said, "Well, we just can't go no further. We're just going to die out here on this sea tonight." And there come Jesus walking on the water. And the sad part of it was, God had provided them a way of escape, and they was afraid of it. They said, "It looks spooky. Oh, He's a spirit." And they cried out for fear.
Jesus said, "Fear not. Be of a good cheer. It's I."
God has provided a way for the people today to see that we're living in the end time. Don't be scared of it; believe it.
