<TITLE>17. Par 152-158</TITLE>L-152 You say and don't doubt, but believe that what you've said, you shall have what you've said. See, believe that it'll happen!

L-153   David, in the Psalms, spoke of Him. And with it, He took His power and He ministered to others. Not only did He keep it to Himself, but He ministered to others by it; also saved others, even to the uttermost, and He can do the same thing now. And promised the same faith to the believers, in His Word, and John... as John 14:12, He said so; Mark 16; and also in Mark 11:23, we just read.

L-154   Now, watch. Now, He has appeared to us in the same form that He did to them in the Old Testament, and in the same as He did in the New Testament; and has showed by the same Word, the same Christ. And I declare to you that Christ is the Holy Ghost. The--the word Christ means "the anointed one"; just a person that's anointed, that is the Christ, the anointed one. How many knows that's true? That's interpet-... The anointed one, there would be a man that would be anointed. Anointed with what? The Bible said in Acts 2, that Jesus of Nazareth, a Man approved of God, anointed with the Holy Ghost; went about it and done great works and things, see, that God manifested, proved that He was in this Man.

L-155   And now, we become anointed with that same Spirit, anointed messiahs; messiahs of the last day, to shine forth the resurrection of Jesus Christ; to show that He is not dead, but in the form of the Holy Ghost, He's in His people; moving among His Bride, with a love affair to Her, pouring out into Her, Himself. They are becoming one for the Wedding Supper; and the same signs, promised by the same God, in the same Word, is making His same manifestations.

L-156 There's nothing left for us to do but believe It, and "believe it" is the substance, and that creates a Perfect Faith. Just think how--how how numb we are; just think of that just a minute, now.

L-157   Now, let's see. Has He done all things well? Has He ever told us anything, but what happened just exactly the way He said it? Hasn't He performed, and hasn't the great Pillar of Fire been among us and done just exactly like He promised to do? Haven't we seen It? Hasn't science taken It, after it's been predicted what would happen; go right there and have it even in the papers and magazines, pack it right back and show it, when it's told you months before it happened? Hasn't He done just exactly the way He did in the Old Testament, and the New Testament? And It's just exactly the same One! The same Holy Spirit comes, and is a Discerner. "And the Word of God, which is quicker and sharper than a two-edged sword, a Discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart." Isn't that right? Isn't that the same God? Now, that same One, it's not a stranger off somewhere else, He's here. He's here, does this to create a Perfect Faith. I feel Him. I know He's here now. I know that His Spirit is here. I know that He knows all things. Amen! And I know He wants to--to do something. He's been doing something, to--to create this perfection of faith in the people.

L-158   Are we going to walk into Eternity, like it was in the days of Noah, with eight souls saved? Are we going to come like Lot, with three out of Sodom? Are we going to come, like in the days of John the Baptist, with six believers? Let us believe, for His works is perfect! They're manifested daily and perfectly before us, showing that He is the Word, the Word! Hebrews, the 4th chapter, says.
... the word of God is... sharper than any two-edged sword,... even a discerner of the thoughts and intents of the heart.
