<TITLE>17. Par 179-190</TITLE>L-179   Let's think. He, with two wings He had over His face, in the Presence of God, humility and... or reverence. And secondly, He had two wings over His feet. What was it? In humility. And third, He flew with them, put Hisself in action. He--he put Hisself in action, with two wings. While, two more wings covered His face, in reverence; Two wings covered His feet, in humility; and two wings, He was in action. What was He doing? He was showing the prophet. By this, He was showing the prophet how His prepared servants must be. God-prepared service must be reverent, humble, and in action.

L-180 But now, if you uncover your face, uncover your feet, your action isn't going to do no good, because you're stirred wrong. See? Takes it all, to guide you. Reverent, humble, and in action, that's what God wants this Pentecostal group to be, for God wants His Church to be in action.

L-181   Like the woman at the well, as soon as she stood there and looked upon this Jew that was speaking to her. And He said, "Woman, bring Me a drink."

L-182 And she said, "Well, the--the--the well is deep." And said, "You have nothing to draw with. And by the way, first," said, "we have no dealings with one another. You know, there is segregation here. Well, we don't have any dealings. You're... I'm a woman of Samaria, and--and you're a Jew. We don't have anything..." See? She went with the old trend.

L-183 But He said to her, "If you knew Who you were talking to, or Who was talking to you, you'd ask Me for a drink."

L-184 She said, "The well is deep. You have nothing to draw with."
He said, "Go get your husband and come here."
"Why," she said, "I have no husband."

L-185 He said, "You've told the truth. You've had five, and the one you're living with now is not your husband."
Look. Quickly she backed off. What was it?

L-186 Not like the Pharisees. When they seen that did, they said, "This Man is Beelzebub, a fortuneteller. He has mental telepathy. See? We'll have nothing to do... We'll explain It all away, to our congregation. After all, He don't know the Word. We come out of school. We have no record of Him ever coming out of our seminaries." Uh-huh.

L-187   But He had Truth, vindicated, God-given Truth. What happened? Her wings quickly went over her face, the wings went over her feet. She said, "Sir," not Beelzebub. "Sir, the best I know, You must be a prophet. Now, I know we haven't had a prophet for hundreds of years. But the Scripture says, that, 'When the Messiah comes, He will be a prophet like Moses.' And we know, when Messiah come, He will do these things. But I don't understand. Who are You? You must be a prophet. When this Messiah comes, He's going to do this same thing that You did, because He will be the God-Prophet."
He said, "I am He, that speaks to you."
Then she went in action. "Come, see a Man!"

L-188   What did He do today? What do you say today? "He don't belong to our organization," no reverence, no humility, "to join up with our groups." When they see a church rise up like that, "It's--it's a pentecostal rank. Look where It come from, 'Birds of a feather!'" That's good. Doves always are together. So He... Fine. Said... Certainly. They eat dove Food too, not crow food.

L-189 A crow is a hypocrite. He can eat dove food, and be a vulture, at the same time. But a dove can't eat crow food. He hasn't got no gall. That's right. He'd eat it, it'd kill him. But the old crow can set down, eat a mess of--of--of his own scavenger appetite, fill it, and go right out and eat corn with a dove. But, huh-uh, can't do that with a dove. He can only eat his own food.

L-190 And a real dove of God only eats the Word. He can't take the things of the world. No, sir. He can't stomach it. That's all. It'd kill him. So he just can't stand it.
