<TITLE>10. Par 97-111</TITLE>L-97   You are then not yourself, you are a new creature, for the Greek there means "a new creation." You've been re-created again. The power of God comes upon you, and you become created, a new creature; which brings the whole physical being, spiritual being and everything, in subject to the Word of God. Not no other way!

L-98 How can you say that you're a Christian, and disobey His Word in one thing? Whosoever disobeyed the law in one--one part of It, was guilty of all of It. Whosoever! Jesus said, "Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every Word that proceeds out of the mouth of God." Not just part of the Words; every Word! That He said in Revelation the 22nd chapter, "Whosoever shall take one Word out of this Book, or add one word to It, his--his part will be taken out of the Book of Life." We are not to take away from the Bible, or add to It. Just say what It says.

L-99   And in First Corinthians 12, It said, "By one Spirit we are all baptized into one Body."

L-100 Now after you're in this Body, Romans 8:1 said, "There is therefore now no condemnation to them that are in Christ Jesus, that walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit." There is the place where there is no condemnation. Whether you go to a Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian church, wherever it is; if you are in Christ, you are a new creature, and there is no condemnation in you, no where at all. That's God's meeting place. That's where God meets the worshiper. There is where you are accounted a new creature, for they're dead to the things of the world. They're alive in Him. The living Presence of God is with them, day by day.

L-101 He lives in them, through every age. Every age that's come along, down through the Bible, when man meet God's requirement, comes into the place to where He provided in His written Word for that day, God makes that person to be a new creature, and he has no condemnation. Look at Job.

L-102 Am I deafening you, the way I'm in these mikes? I'm sorry about it. I know it's the rebound in here. I hear it here, myself.

L-103 But, look. Job, regardless of how many people try to condemn him, how many said he was wrong, he was keeping the commandment of God, by that burnt-offering. He knowed he was justified, because he was keeping the commandments of God. That's how he was justified, because he was doing the things that God wanted him to do.

L-104   The living Presence of God lights up the day, every day, from death of creeds, and to Life and to the Word of the day. Now, God has things that He does.

L-105 As a--a little flower, like I said the other morning at the breakfast. When a seed comes to light, he starts growing. It drinks from God's fountain, keeps pushing up till it gets to the bud part, gets up into the flower, up into the blossom.

L-106 Now we find out, that when we start with Christ, we grow the same way, because we grow in grace and in admonition of God.

L-107   God's only provided plan, for any age, is His Word. His Son came and manifested every promise that was promised for His age. All the prophets came just exactly on time, they was God's Word living on earth. They was the Word. Jesus said that they were "gods." Jesus called those prophets, "gods."

L-108 A man met me in the last meeting I had, he said, "You're a poor theologian."

L-109 And I said, "I don't claim to be one." I said, "The Word don't come to a theologian; theology does." The Word comes... See? I said, "Just theology comes to a theologian. But," I said, "we're talking about something else."

L-110   Now we find that, in each age, when God said a certain, thing would happen, here come that man along and manifested that, here come their people along and lived that. That was God Himself living in the people, because it was an answering of His Word.

L-111 Now, God's only provided and only provided plan, today, is His Son, through His Word for this age, quickened by the Spirit of His life, quickened.
