<TITLE>29. Par 198-202</TITLE>L-198   That would be a wonderful baptism, but Paul said, "It's no good now." He commanded them they would have to be rebaptized again, in the Name of Jesus Christ, Acts 19:5.
And Paul said, "If an Angel comes down from Heaven and preaches any other gospel than This that I have preached, let him be accursed," Galatians 1:8. Then he repeated it again, said, "As I have said, so say I again. 'Though a Angel,'" let alone a minister, bishop, pope, or whatever it might be, "if a Angel come down from Heaven, a--a Cherubim out of the Heavens, and preached another gospel than That, let him be cursed."
Then, I command you, if you've never been baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ, while the water is in the pool, and the robes are waiting, come and be baptized, "Calling upon the Name of the Lord, and you shall receive the gift of the Holy Ghost; for the promise is unto you and to your children, and to them that's far off, even as many as the Lord our God shall call."

L-199   Our Heavenly Father, now it's up to You. Persuading man, I try; but to make man, I cannot. And You never work against a man's will; because, if a man or woman is predestinated to Eternal Life, when the Light of God flashes over that seed, it'll come to Life. And if there is Life among us tonight, Father, that You flashed Your Light over, and they've seen the Truth, may they walk humbly and sweetly to the pool, to be baptized into the Name of Your beloved Son, Jesus Christ.

L-200 Which, we know that every person in the Scripture had to be baptized, and rebaptized. Those who were not baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ, had to be rebaptized. And the great apostle, who had the keys to the Kingdom, said on the Day of Pentecost, "Repent, every one of you, and be baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ for the remission of your sins, that your sins may be remitted, and then the promise of the Holy Ghost is to you." Grant that it will be carried out tonight, in full measure, Father.

L-201 I commit them to You now. "Take these few words and the meditation of my heart, and may it be acceptable in Thy sight, O Lord." And anchor upon Thy children, and give to them Eternal Life. Save all those who are savable, and heal those that are sick. May the grace of God rest upon each of them, as we commit them to You now, in Jesus' Name.

L-202   Now with our heads bowed, I'm going to ask our sister that plays the piano to come here. Just a moment, just about five more minutes. And if there is any that desires to be baptized now, that's made a confession and believed. If you believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God, and you believe it with all your heart, not just--just emotional, but you believe it, and you are ready to confess that you're wrong; and you're not standing upon your own merits, but upon what He done; and you're ready to walk forward, to take on His Name in water baptism, become a member of the Body by the Holy Spirit; then, the women's room is on my right, and the man's room is on my left, with robes and things ready.
