<TITLE>02. Par 5-9</TITLE>L-5 Sounds rather sacrilegious... An old minister... (Thank you.) An old minister one time went to hold a--a meeting at a place, and he said--preached the first night on repentance, the second night on repentance, the third night, fourth night, fifth night.
The deacons met him back there and said, "Brother, we enjoy that message on repentance." But said, "Haven't you got something else you can preach on?"
He said, "Oh, yes. But wait till they all repent first, and then we'll start on something else." So...
When I walk into the House of God and see everything lined up looking fine, then we'll start something else. You see? So--so we're... You... I do desire your prayer. I don't say those things to be bad. You know that. I--I'm zealous. It's God's daughters; it's God's sons. And we ought to behave like that. We ought to act like it and try to come up with it. I am way short and ask your prayers for me; and I'm praying for you.
So we'll pray together for each other, and maybe someday God will bring us all together in a great something that'll take us up out of all this chaos here anyhow. I'm kind of getting tired of this old pest house anyhow, aren't you? I'd like to take a solo flight one of these mornings when He comes.

L-6 Now, I gave out last night, that after talking about the jubilee, and calling to return back to the original Pentecost, and to the message, I said tonight I would try to speak a little bit on how to get back. You know, there's no need of telling anybody what to do, unless you tell them how to do it. That's the--the thing.
Now, there's--the text that I want to read, I've--I've used it before, but maybe not exactly in this way. But I thought it fit in good, and I just have to bring it that way. So I think that bringing this on how to get back, and the... There's many ways out, but there's only one way back.

L-7 I was... A fellow said one time in--in the mountains. He was... We was up there... Another fellow and I, who were licensed guides in Colorado, we had a group of people on the other side, a little dude outfit. And they brought some fellows in there, and the guide himself got lost, and he was wandering around back there. He drove up where we was at on a horse. He said, "Hey..." This fellow that was with me, Mr. Jefferies, was kind of a quick-spoken man.
He said, "Hey," said, "how do you get out of here?"
He said, "How did you get in here?"
He said, "That way."
He said, "Well then, that's the way out." So the way back again... So that's it, just it.

L-8 Let us read now in the book of II Kings, in the 1st chapter of II Kings, two or three verses. And then we want to take a--a subject and use for a text, "The Way Back."
Then Moab rebelled against Israel after the death of Ahab.
And Ahaziah fell down through the lattice in the upper chamber that was in Samaria, and was sick: and he sent messengers, and said unto them, Go, and inquire of Beelzebub the god of Ekron whether I shall recover of this disease.
But the Angel of the Lord said unto Elijah the Tishbite, Arise, and go up and meet the messengers of the king of Samaria, and say unto them, Is it not because there's not a God in Israel, that you go to inquire of Beelzebub the god of Ekron?

L-9 And then I heard Brother Moore, a few moments ago on the intercom there, speak. And he didn't know that I was going to read this for a text on talking about a balm. And I want to read that in Jeremiah 8:22:
Is there no balm in Gilead; is there no physician there? Why then is not the health of the daughter of my people recovered?
A question "Why? Why isn't the health of My people recovered?"
Now, I would like to say that we are most happy to be enjoying this great time of fellowship, and I hope that the Lord will not let one person come in here without being saved, and one without the Holy Ghost, but what will be filled with the Holy Ghost, and every sick person be healed. I'm just looking forward to that, and we're believing it.
