<TITLE>17. Par -</TITLE>L-26-1 Then Ephesians 4:30 says, Grieve not the holy Spirit of God, whereby ye are sealed until the day of your redemption. Now, some of you Baptists that wants to go on eternal security, now, if you'll come to that stage, I'll stand with you it's eternal security, if you'll come to that place. But just to say, anybody says, "I'll belong--joined the Baptist church"; "I'm a Presbyterian"; "I got eternal security"; that's wrong. Your own life proves you haven't got it, Until this is there and God has adopted you and sealed you by the Holy Ghost into His kingdom... Then there's no getting out of it. You are eternally secure. "Believe--Grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby all you and your godly virtues are sealed until the day of redemption."

L-26-2 I believe there is a Bride that's predestinated. I believe God said He would have a Church without spot or wrinkle. I believe in predestination, that the Bride is predestinated; She's got to be there. I hope I'm with Her. That's... See? I'm with Her. Now, it's up to me to work out my own salvation with God until these things are approved of God and then sealed into the Kingdom of God. There's the Holy Spirit. There's the genuine works of God. It's sealed until the day of redemption. That was her dream. I thought it was beautiful.

L-26-3 Now, therefore, when She does that, when that Church comes to this place, or the individual... The Church is going to be there. Let me say it real good so you get it. The Church is predestinated to be there. I want to be with It, but the only way I'll be with It, is to be part of It.
How do I become part of It? By being in It. How do I get in It? By baptism, by one Spirit. I Corinthians 12: "By one Spirit we are all baptized into one Body," one Body, baptized into it.

L-26-5 But you can't stick these little things, say, "I spoke with tongues. I got It." You go out here, and angry, and swear, and carry on (See?); that's putting peacock feathers in a--the jaybird. See? You can't do it. Your own life proves that it's not. But when these things are operating in you by God, then you're sealed. Then there's no put-on about it. You're just yourself. That's when visions, perfect Holy Spirit works of God, everything is made manifest. Because why? You and Christ become one (I hope that's understood.); you and Christ become one.
I had something else I had wrote down here I wanted to think of. Brings us to the place of Life, then you become--have Eternal Life.

L-27-2 Now, I've got the Greek Lexicon here, "The Emphatic Diaglott." I studied the other day on a word.
Now, in John 14--or John 3:16, we find one place says, "have Everlasting Life"; another place it says, "have Eternal Life." But in the--in the Greek version, in the Hebrew it says, "Life without end." In the Greek word, has A-i-n-i-o-a-n... Almost like "aeon." Aeon is a space that's can't be... It's a number that can't be numbered. It's beyond millions, trillions, billions. But this is an aionian of time: Eternal Life. And the English word for it is eternal. We know it as eternal, Aionian or Life without end. See?
And if you've got Life without end, how can you perish? You have become a part of the Eternal, and there is only one thing eternal. Satan's not eternal. No. He--he become Satan. Hell is not eternal. Hell was created; it's not eternal. And these bodies are not eternal; they were created. But the Spirit of God is eternal. It never had a beginning, or It never has an end. And the only way we can have Eternal Life (from that Greek word "Zoe," which means "God's own life"), we have--we become a part of God when we become sons and daughters of God and we have Aionian Life. So the part that lives, us, that recognizes this Word from here to there, that recognizes, is Aionian Life, Life without end. It's God's own Life in us. Amen. Whew.
