<TITLE>17. Par 159-169</TITLE>L-159   They found out the toxine held. They said, "If You be the Son of God, come down off the cross." The high priest, the big dignitary of the church, said, "Tell us plainly now. If You're the Son of God, come down off the cross and save Yourself," and so forth. "Let us see if You're the Son of God." He never opened His mouth and said a word.

L-160 Now we find out that He died. He really died. He died until the sun and moon said He died. All of nature said He died. The earth quaked, it had a nervous chill run over it. And when they seen the very God that created the earth, was hanging on top of the earth, and Emmanuel's Blood dropping upon the ground. No wonder He died. He died till everything said He was dead.

L-161   And then we're going to find out, before He died, He said, "You destroy this temple, and I'll raise it up again on the third day. You'll never be able to keep it down. Destroy it, and I'll bring it back up on the third day."

L-162 They put a guard around, to find out the inoculation was going to hold. They seen it held through temptation of sin. It held through poverty. It held through riches. It held through all kinds of temptation. It still held. But now it's in death, what's it going to do now?

L-163   But on Easter morning, oh, my, just before that sun rose up, that inoculation took a hold. And, when it did, death broke its barriers, the grave opened up, and He rose again on the third day and ascended on High. It shows that that inoculation is the inoculation of Eternal Life. You can't destroy it. Even the belly of hell can't hold it. The grave can't hold it. Death can't hold it. Nothing can hold it. It'll rise again.

L-164 Jesus Christ said, "All the Father has given Me will come to Me, and I'll raise it up again at the last day." Hallelujah! A man or a woman that's been inoculated with This, cannot stay in the grave. No grave can hold the righteous. No hell can keep it; no grave, no nothing else. Jesus Christ promised to raise it up again on that Day. Amen. Oh, I'm so glad of that, that inoculation. You know, on Easter morning it proved.

L-165   Do you know what it was? It was such a great thing, till a hundred and twenty people wanted to get inoculated. Now, if He can keep through temptation, there was a hundred and twenty people who knew Him real well, they wanted that inoculation. So right then He had to go up to the laboratory and fix the serum, so He said, "You go up there to the city of Jerusalem till I get it, all the formula fixed up. I'm going to send It down to you." So they went up to wait.

L-166 How the Christian church should be run, what kind of an inoculation would it take? What, what would be the inoculation? How would they do? What would take place? Should they all go away to the seminary and learn to have a Ph.D. and LL.D.? Should some priest come up the road with a kosher in his hands, and lick out and take the communion, and that's it?

L-167   "But there came a sound from Heaven," the inoculation was on its road, "like a rushing mighty wind, and It filled all the house where they were sitting. Cloven tongues set upon them, like Fire. And they were all filled with the Holy Ghost, and begin to speak with other tongues, as the Spirit give them utterance."

L-168 Did you ever seen the old temple, the picture of it? There was a little side door that went out, went up along the stairsteps, went up in the upper room. They closed the doors and went in, because they was afraid.

L-169 But I'm telling you, when they got inoculated like a fresh branded calf, they couldn't hold him. No, sir. Out of that room he come, out into the streets he went. He was inoculated. Death, hell, persecution, laughed at, made fun of, made no difference to him, he was inoculated. Amen. Oh, my!
