<TITLE>12. Par 113-122</TITLE>L-113   I was reading a circular letter that was put out by a great Pentecostal that set side-by-side with the pope, not long ago, in the ecumenical council. I got wrote down, thirty-three years ago, that that very thing would take place. Now, you'll never be able to swing real, spiritual pentecostals into that thing. They know better than that. It sounds awful good to the intellectual, but the spiritual mind grasps it quick that that's wrong. They know that that's wrong. They know what God has said about those things. And so, they, they'll never catch it.

L-114   Now, the others will, where Jesus said the two spirits in the last days would almost deceive the very Elected if it were possible. See? But the Elected ones will know different. But we're in a time of trouble where there isn't a minister in the world can stop our denominations from joining this ecumenical council. They're already in it. No matter how many things God did, how blessed He was among us, they went right into it, anyhow. You can't stop it. That's just all there is to it. They're going to do it, now, troubles that cannot be remedied by the church. Then, as soon as we find out that...

L-115 You go to the doctor, he'll say, "Well, I'm sorry to tell you, but you--you have cancer." Well, quickly, that's all. "He--he--he's dead. That's just all there is to it. Or, she, they're gone." The doctors say, "Well, that's paralyism. You can't... That's leukemia." Well, right quick, "They're as good as dead, right then." See? Fear sets in, see, but it shouldn't.

L-116 Who is This made the promise? What are we living for? Why are we the Church of the living God? Why are we filled with the Holy Ghost? To remember in the time of trouble, He is still here. He stabilizes things. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever. He is with us just the same. He might be resting a few moments between the meetings, but He is still here just the same. Yeah. And when trouble sets in, and faith of Him being with us... Then fear sets in. And when fear sets in, then we really got trouble.

L-117   We have that in church, national, wherever. All the nations are scared to death. There's an astronaut somewhere, and there is atomic bomb. And we know that science has developed mechanical things, until that, at any moment, without warning, the whole world can go to pieces. And the world is scared.

L-118 I'm not scared of the world going to pieces. There's going to be a thousand years Millennium reign, after this is all over. God won't defeat His own purpose. Only thing I pray, "Lord, am I right to go, when He comes?" That's--that's the only scare I have. "Have I pleased You, Lord?" See?

L-119 Don't fear what man is doing. Fear God. Said, "Don't fear him who can destroy the body. But He can destroy both body and soul in hell." See? That's right.

L-120 Now, arguments and so forth, as trouble sets in, fear. And we seem to be a whole lot the same today. But, remember, He is still with us.

L-121   Now, in Saint John, the 1st chapter, don't forget it, "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. And the Word was made flesh and dwelled among us." Hebrews 13:8 said, "He's the same yesterday, today, and forever." And this Book is a revelation of Jesus Christ, all the way from Genesis to the last Book, of Revelation. It's the revelation of Jesus Christ. The prophets and all those things were foreshadowing Christ. And everything in the Book is Jesus Christ.

L-122 So, remember, He is still with us. Everything, to remedy every cause that the Devil can start, is right here. We have it, right here. Trouble; but the Master is in the boat. All right. If they get in trouble, where the doctors can't remedy, remember, He is here. If we... Don't forget. He's in the ship.
