<TITLE>33. Par 352-365</TITLE>L-352 It's the little lady standing, with a checkered-like thing on. Something just struck her, a few minutes ago, and she raised her hands up. That right, lady? Just right here, with her hands up, here behind the lady with the blue dress on. There It is. See? Why, it's not over... I--I'm looking right at It. Now, if I've ever told you anything wrong, tell me when. It's here.

L-353   Friends, you--you got to get away from that starchy Pentecostal way. You've got to really die. You've got to really mean it. You--you got something, you--you got a partial hunger, but not a real hunger. You've got to make it genuine. "While Peter spake these Words, the Holy Ghost fell on them that heard It." Try closing your eyes and--and bowing your head. Think it over. Is there something wrong? "Lord, take away my unbelief."

L-354 Now here, with mortal eyes... The Angel of the Lord, Whose picture is among us, been taken by a scientific proof, the same Pillar of Fire that followed the children of Israel. That was Jesus, when He had died, buried, ascended back to God.

L-355 Saul, on his road to Damascus, was struck down by that same Pillar of Light. Said, "Lord, Who are You?"
He said, "I'm Jesus."
Jesus said, "I come from God, and went to God."

L-356 Here He is, today, the same Jesus, seen among us with eyes, caught by a camera, manifested in the Spirit. Oh, brother, sister, what more can God do? The hour of grace!

L-357   I want to believe you're sincere. I believe you are, but you close yourself up. You're not sincere enough to receive It. I...

L-358 So help me, It's right here in the building. I lie not.

L-359 Now, while you're quietening yourself just a moment. Has anybody in here felt they--they did receive the Holy Spirit? Wave--wave your hand, back and forth. I seen It, all around, over the people. Blessed. Blessed. You all got blessed? Amen. Two, that's three. All right. Four. All right. There is four received the Holy Ghost during that shower. Four people received the Holy Spirit during that time. Pra-... Praise the Lord. See?

L-360 Now, just a few moments ago, It was traveling. A Light come from over in this way, come back this way, went over here, and come back again. I said to Brother Shakarian, "Come here. Come here. Here, here, see It coming, right here. I watch It as It pass over. There's a little lady there." And just as I said, "It's right over that little lady." About that time, she throwed her hands up, begin screaming. There It was. See? Just passed right over, went right over in that corner, come right back around this way. I don't see It now. See? That's actually the truth. I tell you the truth. See? And here it is, see, four received the baptism of the Holy Ghost.

L-361   Now, if you want It, It's yours. It's yours if you are willing to just open up.

L-362 Now you--you have a--a--a conception of what you should do. You have kind of an idea, "Well, now, if I'll stand up here, this." No, no. That, that does... You can set down. Don't make any difference where you're at. But where you will open yourself up, and then the Holy Spirit will strike.

L-363 Then, well, sometimes It begins to anoint you, and you won't just lead on through with It. You get little scared. You're afraid. You pull back. Just surrender yourself, surrender yourself to the Holy Spirit.

L-364 Don't be afraid of fanaticism. If it is the Devil acting, don't you think we'll know it? Uh-huh. Yes, sir. He won't come around. Don't you worry of that. No. He--he won't bother.

L-365 You just surrender yourself to the Holy Spirit. When you feel that glorious... Like this little minister said he did that night, standing up, where Something warm come over him. If he'd just knowed how to surrender himself right then. That's all. Just say, "Lord Jesus, I believe You. I accept You." Then something will start taking place. See? Mean it from your heart, then it takes place. Oh!
