<TITLE>20. Par 219-229</TITLE>L-219 Won't you come now? Won't you take your crumb and come?
... beneath that flood
If you want the Holy Spirit, won't you come, come in now?
Lose all their guilty stain,
Lose all their guilty stain;
And sinners plunged be-...
Come, friend.
Lose all...
The dying thief... -joice to see
...?... right here at the altar. And you...?...
Though vile as he,
Wash all her sin.
God bless you, my brother. That's the way to do it.

L-220   I wonder if the ministers here now would come stand up here with us. Ministers in the building, come stand around here with us, a minute now, instructors who--who is interested in lost souls.
May I, though vile as he,
Wash all my sin away.

L-221 I wonder if there's ministers here, instructors in the Word, that would like to come. Remember, Eternal destinations is being decided right now. Here is about seven or eight, ten people standing here. And you know what that means? One soul is worth ten thousand worlds. We mustn't take this lightly.

L-222 Now, you that's sick, and wants prayer of faith prayed for you, would you just stand right where you are, that's sick and needy. That's good.

L-223 Now, my minister brothers, just that's right, lay your hands over on these people.

L-224   Now, you sick people, stand kind of close enough together, that you can put your hands on each other. Now, the Bible said, to you sick, "These signs shall follow them that believe." You have to be a believer, or you wouldn't be standing. "If they lay their hands on the sick, they shall recover." You know that's right. That's the Scriptures that can't fail.

L-225 And to these penitent ones coming to the altar, my brothers and sisters who comes to the altar tonight, mortal beings that knows that you've got to face God sometime. The Bible said some men's sins go before them, some follow. You're confessing yours tonight, that your sins will go before you, and be forgiven through the Blood of the Lord Jesus.

L-226   And you here seeking the baptism of the Holy Ghost, God made the promise over in Acts 10. We read, "While Peter yet spake these words, the Holy Ghost fell on them that heard it." They were so hungry! Now, you're hungry. You brought that little crumb up here. Now let's take a real full meal of God's blessings. All of it's for you.

L-227 Now, you people who believe in prayer, let's just bow our heads together and pray now and believe. Now, just forget who is around you. Know that there's nobody around you but Jesus Christ. And each one pray the way you do, the way you're used to praying. And, brethren, lay your hands on these people, and let's believe now the Holy Ghost is going to come and perform these things that we're asking for.

L-228   Our Heavenly Father, we do not feel that we're standing here in vain. We thank Thee for these souls. We know that You're here now to save them. I pray that You'll grant it, Lord. May their faith look beyond the shadow. May these seeking the Holy Ghost, that's got believers' hands laying on them, the sick and the afflicted, may the power of God move into this building, up-and-down these aisles, and through these people. And save every sinner, fill every believer with the Holy Ghost, and heal every sick person. Grant these things, Lord. I believe that You are here, and You are the same yesterday, today, and forever. Your promises cannot fail.

L-229   We believe that You commissioned Your Church, and they went up to the city of Jerusalem. They went to the upper room, and were there, continually, praising and blessing God. "And all of a sudden there came from Heaven a sound of a rushing mighty Wind, and It filled all the house where they were assembled." Thou art the same, and You're able to do the same. Let the power, that come down on the day of Pentecost, baptize this group of people tonight, in the power of the resurrection of Jesus Christ. This prayer I offer in Jesus' Name, for these people, for the glory of God.
