<TITLE>28. Par 311-324</TITLE>L-311 Then, right straight up went the destroying angels and destroyed everything that was in the city, not even a piece of goods was left. One took out a piece of goods, and had to perish with it, out of that denomination. Took the whole thing and destroyed it! "Cursed be the man that ever tries to build it. His firstborn will die when he starts," and so forth. God cursed it like that, that big thing that rejected the gra-... the message of grace and mercy, thought they were safely secured.

L-312   Many people thinks, today, "Because I belong to the church, I'm safely secured." Don't you believe such nonsense.

L-313 When, "The blood shall be a token unto you." The Spirit now is the Token unto you, the Life that was in the Blood.

L-314   Same, let's think that, the same token that they used in Egypt, the same life token that was in the Egypt, was in Egypt, God used the same symbol up there. Joshua, a perfect type of Jesus, was true to the token sign that his messengers had preached. Joshua, when he said that, he said, "Don't touch that house or anything in it. It's reserved for the Lord." Amen!

L-315 A Gentile, a harlot, streetwalker, but she heard and believed, and she applied the token.

L-316 No matter how stooped you are in sin, what you have done, that doesn't have one thing to do with it. You apply the Token. It's for you. If you feel in your heart there is something tugging, It's for you. You apply the Token. And the great Josh-...

L-317   The word Joshua means "Jehovah-saviour." So does Jesus, means a "Saviour." And, Joshua, when he knowed his messengers...

L-318 His messengers returned back, and said, "I have obeyed your orders. And there was a woman we found, when we played the tapes, you know. We found a woman that believed. And we told her, that all that would come under that red sign back there, the token, it would mean. Now I have preached that. Will you honor it, Joshua?"
"I sent you to do it." Amen.

L-319 And then when, that, God honored it, the house never shook down. And then when Joshua stood there and give the signal to destroy the whole thing, went right straight up, and Rahab and all of her people set right, and all their possession, amen, amen, all their possession was in the house, safely. They just stood there, and didn't have to look out the window. They could read the Scripture while the battle was going on.

L-320 She come right back and courted, courted the general in army, and was raised up, and come up in Bethlehem, and her portion was allotted up in there to them. And she brought forth a... she brought forth a famous son, and that famous son brought forth another famous son, and that son brought forth another famous son, until the great, famous Son came. Right back down, and on through Obed, and on through Jesse, and on down into David. That's right, harlot Rahab, because she believed the messenger. She applied the token, and her house was saved, or she had perished down there where she was at.

L-321   Listen close now. Oh, say, do you recognize it? All under it was saved in Egypt. All under it was saved in Jericho. All under It will be saved today. The blood-bound, blood lamb, is a type of Jesus Christ.

L-322 In Hebrews 13:10 and 20. I ain't got time to read it. Put it down. I was going to read it. It is called "the everlasting covenant." The Blood of Jesus Christ is called "the everlasting covenant." Yes, sir! "Everlasting covenant."

L-323 Why wasn't it called "Eternal covenant"? Because that it wouldn't be Eternal. When we're redeemed, it's all over then. It's an everlasting, which means, "certain amount of time," till time is out. There'll never be another one. When time runs out, we won't need no covenant. But until time runs out, we need the covenant.

L-324   Now, remember, Hebrews 13:10-20, a "everlasting covenant." God's Blood-bound promise makes us free from sin. Amen! There is no sin in Him; sin, self, flesh.
