<TITLE>13. Par 50-52</TITLE>L-50 Yes, sir, they made a rashal mistake when they did that, and they wandered for forty years. That's exactly what they done. They wandered for forty years when they wasn't over five days from the promised land. It's about forty miles from the Red Sea to where they crossed Jordan, about forty miles; they could have walked in three or four days and been into the promised land. But they made their own choice.
And the church would've been a church tonight, glorious, without spot or wrinkle, if the fathers would accepted and stayed with the Holy Spirit that God had brought them out of them organizations. But they went right back into it like a dog to its vomit and a hog to its wallow. They went right back again into that, and now we've wandered another fifty years, wandering in the wilderness.

L-51 But there come a time when God said, "You've been on this mountain long enough. Come on; we're going over."
May it be Louisiana's experience now in this jubilee. May it be our experience again that God, the Holy Spirit, will speak to the people of this generation, their sons, as they did back there when the old fighters have died out, that fought, and said, "Do you--going to do this, I'll do this. And if you baptize in the Name of Jesus, we'll have nothing to do with you. And you do this, we'll have that, and the other thing." The old fighters are dead. That's right.
It's time to rise, be sons of God in the Name of Jesus Christ, and rise to a place so you can return in this jubilee and hear the sound of the trumpet of the Gospel of the Word of God. Ye are brethren. You are not denominated; you are brethren because you can't be denominated; you're born sons of God. If the slaves want to stay in the walled cities, let them stay, but you're free. Amen. You're free. Let's go back. Let's go back to our inheritance. Let's go back to the beginning, back to their--to led by the inspiration of the Holy Spirit.

L-52 That's where they made a mistake. One time again Israel did that. It's just a thing that people does. One time Israel looked around after they'd had their inheritance divided to them. They wanted to be like the rest of the world. They desired a king.
The old prophet... Prophets always been God's way of telling people. "The Word of the Lord came to the prophets." It's the prophet who told them the truth.
And Samuel stood up, and he said, "Have I ever taken your money, or have I ever told you anything in the Name of the Lord but what come to pass?"
They said, "That is true. You've never took our money. You've never taken our living. You've never begged us for things. And you've never told us nothing in the Name of the Lord but what was the truth."
He said, "Then stay away from them things out there. Get a king over you... God's your King."
And it displeased God. And Samuel wept before the Lord, and the Lord said, "They haven't rejected you, Samuel, they've rejected Me. You're just an instrument I'm working through. Let them have it."
