<TITLE>09. Par 85-93</TITLE>L-85 And the original color is white. We've got to get this back to white, yet it's black. It's perverted somewhere. But when it's dropped into this, this ink is dropped into the--the bleach, it sends it all the way back, and it's white just like the bleach is. You will never find it again. It's finished, forever.

L-86   Now, all your sensations, as we Pentecostal people like to jump and shout. I do. I believe that's right. We like to speak with tongues. I believe that's a gift of God. The devil can impersonate anything that you can produce in that line, but notice, then it shows that something is wrong, the Life of Christ isn't flowing through the church the way it should. The Body, the Bride, it's not going through there like it should, now it finally clogged up somewhere.

L-87 Notice, when this, your sins are confessed, and your sins are dropped into the bleach of the Blood of the Son of God, it remits sin so much that it's--it's put in the Sea of God's Forgetfulness, and can never even be remembered in His sight anymore. Then what, that, does that make a man? A son of God. God never remembers you to be a sinner. You are a son, you are a daughter, there is no more remembrance of sin at all. God puts it in the Sea of Forgetfulness, the bleach. The Sea of Forgetfulness is Christ's Blood that was shed for you. And therefore, then, you and God, are Father and son, by Jesus Christ's grace; not by anything you done, but by His grace. You are sons and daughters of God, and a partaker of His blessings and of His power and of His Life. His Life is in you, for you are a son of God. Oh, if the church could, we would only to represent that!

L-88   No wonder Jesus said, "If ye abide in Me, and My Word in you, then ask what you will." See? "The works that I do," John 14:12, "he that believeth, confessed and believeth on Me, see, the works that I do shall he do also." Because, God is in the--the believer just like He was in Christ. Not in the fulness He was in Christ, but He is in you just like He was, because you are a son of God through Jesus Christ.

L-89   Oh, how this young man and his church life could see that this was something in the Lord Jesus. And he was presented with this problem, to come to Jesus, yet it was against his church. But he had the audacity, he had--he had the something about him, that wanted to find out, a hunger, and he came to the Lord Jesus.

L-90 And this young fellow, I think of him being presented then with the opportunity for this investment, but he wasn't interested in such an investment. It was alright if he could go on living with his friends, and go on living in the things that he was doing, and affiliate in it, and yet not willing to surrender.

L-91   Now there is where we find the great trouble today, is, the church knows the Scripture. Here, this institution that this young fellow here just come from, and these, this Baptist brother sitting here, they know that Word. They--they--they are students of the Word. And yet if they... They say, "Well, we believe it, we accept it."

L-92 It's just like a bottle of medicine, a cure. See, not morally cure; it reproduces the Life of Christ. See? If you take the Gospel, then you become part of the Gospel. And if you become a part of it, like Peter, James, and John, and them, did on Pentecost, your life is another living Book of Acts. There is no way out of it. Jesus said, in Mark 16, "These signs shall follow them that believe." But the people will learn, and they go through seminaries and schools, to learn it, but don't want none of it themselves, yet they think that they got it. Yeah. They think that they got it, but the actions speaks louder than all the words. See, your--your life proves it, whatever you are.

L-93   And this fellow was not interested in such. Although this great investment was not just some overnight something, it was just not something that Jesus asked him, "Come, jump right into." Jesus had thoroughly been identified, the Son of God.
