<TITLE>02. Par 10-19</TITLE>L-10   Now, I usually try to promise to let you out early, and I failed each night. But these are little short times. Sometimes, at home, I'm on the platform for six, eight, or ten hours. So I know you couldn't stand that. You got a lot of grace to stay this hour, hour and a half. May the Lord bless you now. And--and pray for me, tonight, as I try to speak from a little text here, and some Scriptures I've written down on a tablet of paper. That I'd like to refer to, for a few moments, and then we'll see what the Lord will have us to do.

L-11 You know, truly, we do not know just what He will do, because sons of God are led by the Spirit of God. We just have to watch and remember whatever He says for us to do, then we do it.
So don't forget tomorrow night, last night of the meeting.

L-12   And then the Full Gospel Business Men's breakfast is Saturday morning, right, I believe, in this same room. Is that right? Here in the same room. And I believe you can get the tickets at the desk. Or... At the desk. And we'd certainly be glad to have you. The Lord willing, I want to speak that--that morning, immediately after breakfast. If you can come in and have breakfast with us, we'd be glad for you to do it. If you can't, well, then drop in for the Message right after breakfast, and we will be glad for you to be here. And I want to kind of take an evangelistic type of Message for that.

L-13   This, I've tried to confine it to prayer for the sick, and healing. And we kind of in a little way... Not with any doctrinal points, but just to show that Jesus Christ is the same yesterday, today, and forever, that He has not changed.

L-14 And to me, That, the Bible is either the Word of God, or is not the Word of God. I--I believe that anything is either right or it's wrong. You can't be halfway between. There's no pretty-good Christians. You've heard that remark, but there's no such a thing. You're either a Christian or you're not a Christian.

L-15 And the only way you can be a Christian, is being born again of the Spirit of God. That's the only remedy: under the Blood of the Lord Jesus. And when you confess your sins to God, and you do have pardon from God, then you are not a sinner. He that's born of God does not commit sin. If he does it, it's unwillfully. "The worshipper once purged has no more conscience of sin." For instance, in the Old Testament the blood of bulls and goats just covered sin; it didn't take it away. But the Blood of Jesus takes it away. It divorces it. There's no more to it.

L-16   For instance, my mother, she has just gone to Heaven, a few months ago. I was standing by her when she went, and she got so she couldn't talk. I said, "Mother, if you can still hear me, if Jesus is still just as sweet to you while you're dying, as He was when you were living, and in the meetings; if you can't speak, just bat your eyes real fast, I'll know you're saying 'Yes.'" And she'd bat her eyes, the tears just rolling down her face. And she went to meet the Lord. And I baptized my own mother about thirty years ago. I was just a little boy preacher.

L-17   Now, now, when she would try to take a spot out of my shirt when I was a little boy, many years ago, she used to try to get coal oil or--or something and take the spot out. And really, she never took the spot out; she just made it a little bigger. It didn't show so much in one place. But that's how, that's all they had to work with.

L-18 Now let's compare that with the blood of goats and sheep, for sin. It was just... It was a propitiation, certainly, but it didn't sufficiently do the job, because it was an animal's blood. And when that blood cell is broke, of the innocent one, see, the lamb's life could not come back on a human, because it had no soul. It's merely an animal.

L-19 But when Jesus came and that Blood cell was broke, the Life of God Himself comes upon us. And we are sons and daughters of God, with His nature. Notice.
