<TITLE>18. Par 174-183</TITLE>L-174 But the true Token of the Blood, speaking out, speaks of a living, resurrected Presence, Jesus Christ, the same yesterday, today, and forever; right, living right now among us. Amen. "It speaks better." From not dead forms and creeds, but a living Token of a living resurrected Christ that lives in us. No, they deny there is such a thing, but we know It's true. But we who believe the Word, know that God promised It and He keeps His promise, know it is His living Presence, for He does as He did.

L-175   If it's in you, and you say, "Well, I don't steal. I don't lie." Well, that's just something that you can quit. You can quit stealing, quit lying, a good moral man does that. "I keep the Ten Commandments." They did that before Jesus died. Yeah.

L-176 But, the thing of it is, Christ living in you! Hebrews 13:8, "He is the same yesterday, today, and forever," proving that God has raised Him up for us, from the dead, according to His promised Word. It's an identification that Jesus Christ is living tonight. We accept His sacrificed blood, that He gave His life. The Token seal, of the Holy Ghost, is our promise. Ephesians 4:30, said, "Grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby you're sealed until the day of your redemption."

L-177   Being baptized by this Token, into the Body of Christ, First Corinthians 12, now we are subject to gifts of the Spirit that's in there. The world don't believe in gifts. The church don't believe in gifts. But God's Word says there is gifts. And it takes only that Token to identify those gifts. Absolutely.

L-178 And in Him is all the fulness. In Him is all the fulness of God, all the fulness of the promise. When we're baptized into Him, we have every promise, that God made, laid at our fingertips. No sin is there. No death is there. And even sickness can't stay in His Presence. If Satan then puts his hands to you and tries to tempt you into something, you hold your Token in your hands and show it, that you are a redeemed product of Jesus Christ. Amen. Let your unadulterated faith wave that Token there, and say, "I am a product that Jesus Christ bought." Amen. Sickness flees!

L-179   What made that big tumor disappear in my wife yesterday? Just a few days ago, she was ready for the operating table, and now they can't find a thing. It's because the power of the resurrection of Jesus Christ, that Token of God, that He still lives. That destroyed it.

L-180 Why does these things happen? It's because God promised it. You are a product. Hold the Token, in your unwavering faith in His promised Word. God once gave us the Token...

L-181   As I'm closing, I don't want to hold you too long. We're going to be out by nine-thirty.

L-182 God gave the world a token, one time, it was a rainbow. He gave them a token, that He would never destroy the world no more by water. And He has ever remained true to that token. Amen. He has never failed to display it. God made a token, said, "I'll give you a token. And when I promise you this, every time a rain comes, I'll show you this token." And God, when He makes a token, He displays His, 'cause that's what He promised to do. And He expects us to do the same thing. He ever remained true to His token.

L-183   And if we are borned of the Spirit of God, we ever remain true to It. If you're some kind of a mythical work-up, you had some kind of an excitement, joined some church, made some kind of an emotion, maybe spoke with tongues, or shouted, or jumped up-and-down, or sang in the Spirit, as you call it. I've seen all those things displayed amongst heathens, see. That doesn't spell a thing. But when really the product, the new Life of Jesus Christ, comes into a man or a woman, he is a new creation, the old man is dead. He is finished. He's done. That Token must always display.
