<TITLE>03. Par 14-22</TITLE>L-14 Almighty God, Creator of heavens and earth, Author of Everlasting Life, and Giver of every good gift, bring Thy blessings upon these who we have blessed. And it is written in the Scriptures that, "If you say to this mountain 'Be moved,' don't doubt in your heart, but believe that what you've said will come to pass, you can have what you've said." I believe that the sickness has gone from their body. Now, it has been spoken. Now, let it be done. Amen.
In the Name of the Lord Jesus I believe...?... In the Name of Jesus Christ I believe you to be free. Amen. Does the church believe likewise? Then let it be done.

L-16 Now, would there be others in here would just like to be remembered in prayer, that would you raise your hand. All right, let us approach Him now as you lay hands on one another out there. "These signs shall follow them that believe."
Most holy God, by faith we see Jesus; we believe Him standing present. He watches over His Word. And He said, "Wherever two or more are assembled in My Name, I am in their midst." Now, heavenly Father, let the power of Almighty God touch these people, Lord, as they have hands joined with one another, laying on one another. The last commission You said to the church, "These signs shall follow them that believe. If they lay their hands on the sick, they shall be..." They'll recover. You promised it, and we believe it. So now, it has been done, and we praise Thee for it, in the Name of Jesus Christ. Amen.
And in the Name of Jesus Christ may the power of God anoint these handkerchiefs to the sick and the needy. And as they are sent out and laid upon the sick, may it come to pass that they'll be healed. We read in the Bible that they took from Saint Paul, handkerchiefs, aprons; unclean spirits left the people, and diseases were healed. And, Father, we know we're not Saint Paul, but we know that You're still Jesus. And we pray that You'll grant this request for Your glory. Amen.

L-19 I don't know whether the--the tapes are on yet or not. Are they on? If not, I would like for them to turn them on at this time. I believe the switch is up. Now, I hope that I do not tire you tonight. I'm beginning about a half hour or thirty-five minutes early. And now, it's a Sunday school lesson, and I have thought that perhaps maybe that it would do good if I had this taped that's on my heart. And we're fixing to go into a--a new phase, new tabernacle, all new.

L-20 And now, I would like to read some of the Scriptures. If you people would like to read with me, I want to read from I Samuel the 8th chapter, and we want to begin with the 4th to the 10th verse, and then to save time, 19th to the 20th. And I have several sheets of Scriptures and reference wrote out here, that if you people have a pen and pencil, or something, paper, that you would like to refer to these or keep them down, you may have them, or, Mr. Maguire will have the--the--the tape.
And I want this tape dedicated to ministers, my brethren, ministers who has misunderstood me, especially the brethren of the denominational churches. And most all are denominationals.

L-22 And my subject tonight is: "Why I'm Against Organized Religion." And I'm going to read now for a background, or a Scripture reading to make it certainly Scriptural; I want to read from I Samuel 8:4-10, then 19-20. To my visible audience, I trust that when you go home that you'll write these Scriptures down and read them carefully. And to the brethren who will be listening to the tape, I trust that you also will not just stop the tape when something's said maybe that you wouldn't agree with, but will seek God in it, see if it's Scriptural. I think we owe it to ourselves and to the Message of the day.
I believe that all churches has Christians in them, and I certainly do not speak against Christians. But the reason that I have did what I have done, and said what I have said, is because of the inspiration of the Holy Spirit on the Word.
