<TITLE>22. Par 252-261</TITLE>L-252 The abstract title! The debt is settled. Everything against it has been struck off. Ha-ha-ha! Glory! I may act silly, but I feel good. Notice. See? Oh, an abstract deed, do you realize what that means? Do you realize what that means, brother? There is nothing can take it away from you. Amen. I am a holder. Amen. What a...

L-253 What deed? I have now cashed in on my beneficiary, of His death, burial, and resurrection. He become me, that I might become Him. Now, He became a sinner, that I might become a son, amen, and hold the abstract deed. "For these signs shall follow them that believe," see, the abstract deed!
Now quickly, before... We got about ten minutes more.

L-254   Let us now notice, quickly, the quickening of the Spirit. I'm going to show you some signs so that you'll understand. Look, now watch what, this "quickening Power" was my subject. After the Son has raised up, look how It done on them at Pentecost, what It did to them, what that quickening Power did to them. It quickened them.

L-255 Now let's notice what It did on Stephen. Stephen was full of quickening Power. Wasn't that right? See, he was full of quickening Power. It didn't make him a scared. He said, "You stiff-necked and uncircumcised in heart and ears, you always resist the Holy Ghost; like your fathers did, so do you. Which one of the prophets that showed forth the coming of the Just One, didn't your fathers stone?" Oh, my! Done something to him. Sure, he was full of quickening Power.
And they said, "We'll get rid of that guy!"

L-256 And when he died, they stoned him; and his poor little head, the stones beating against it like that. He looked up and said, "I see the Heavens opened." Quickening Power was working. "I see the Heavens opened, and Jesus standing at the right hand of God." That's what quickening Power done for Stephen.

L-257   Notice another fellow, had this quickening Power, his name was Philip. He was so full of quickening Power. He was having a great big meeting down at Samaria. Devils was being cast out. People was baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ. They was having a real meeting. And the Spirit spoke to him, oh, the--the Dynamics come down, and It said, "Leave this revival." But what will the ministers say? Don't make any difference what they say. See? He was full of quickening Power. He had the gasoline, and the--the Dynamics was falling upon him. Said, "Go out into the desert."

L-258 And he found a eunuch there, and baptized him in the Name of Jesus Christ; one man, who took the Message down to Ethiopia. That right? And he obeyed God.

L-259 In obedience to God, if you have never been baptized in the Name of Jesus Christ, do it, and watch the quickening Power pick you up then. See?

L-260   When Stephen done this great thing... or, not Stephen. But Philip done this great thing, to leave that great revival and obey the commandments of God, when he fulfilled, by fill... By baptizing this eunuch, in obedience to God, he was so full of the quickening Power till It caught him away. "It will quicken your mortal body, if this Spirit that raised up Jesus from the dead." It quickened Philip till he wasn't seen for maybe a hundred fifty miles, over somewhere else, over in another country. It quickened his mortal body. How did he do it? He was so full of the quickening Power.

L-261   Oh, Church of the living God, we can't stand around here on little sugar-tits that we are nursing around here today. We've got to be full and prayed up, with quickening Power, until the quickening of the Holy Ghost! We got to be caught away, someday, in that Rapture yonder. Yes, sir. Amen! Oh, my!
