<TITLE>08. Par 73-85</TITLE>L-73 Emmanuel, and His Name was Jesus, God with us, with His Father's Name. He came in His Father's Name. There is where God placed His Name, in His Son. That's the only place that you can worship Him. The only place God will ever meet you, is in that Son which was typed by the sacrificial lamb. And all down through the Old Testament, all brought types of that one thing, that that place alone, God, alone, met under the sacrificial blood. Only place He met, the only place is He meets today; it's not in the name of creed, or in a name of a denomination, name of a church, or name of a group, or name of a society, but in the Name of "Jesus Christ!"

L-74   I tested that when I was a young man. I had often heard of spiritualism, of the Devil, how he does things. And I knew if there was a God, there must be a Devil, because the Bible said there was a Devil. And he, I thought... heard about these spiritualists. I went to some of them, found out they were phonies, nothing to it, just a big bunch of make-belief. But I found out there were some of them were real spiritualists.

L-75 And I was at a camp one time, where a minister and I went to see them in there. They had raised the table up from the floor, and had whisky glasses sitting over it; and taken that table, turned it back and forth. And a guitar flying through the building; people's clothes. Had had this up, in the room. Said, this medium said, "I challenge anybody to knock it down."

L-76   Two man said, "I'll get it down." They grabbed it around the legs like that, and tried to hold it. It wouldn't. Why, that table throwed them plumb across the floor.

L-77 Don't you just sit around. If you've never been a missionary and been on fields, only thing you know is just the thought of a Devil. If you look out here on some of these people walking around the streets, you can see him. But there is a Devil! Certainly is.

L-78 And people worship the Devil, don't even know what they're doing. They worship the Devil in churches, "Teaching for Doctrine the commandments of man, creeds--creeds and traditions." I said...

L-79   This woman hollered over to me, and said, "They tell me you're a preacher."
I said, "I am."

L-80 She said, "Then if you don't..." Said, "What do you think about this?"
I said, "It's the Devil."

L-81 And she said, "Well, then, if you've got so much power, knock it down."

L-82 I said, "I don't have any power, at all. I have no power, but I'm here representing One."

L-83 I said, "Lord Jesus, You said, in Saint Mark the 16th chapter, 'In My Name they shall cast out devils.'" I said, "Now, that Your servant may know, as the battle lays before me!"

L-84 I said, "I command that table to fall down, in the name of the 'holy Church,'" and it stayed right there. I said, "I command that table to fall down there, in the name of the 'Father, Son, and Holy Ghost,'" it stayed right there. I said, "I command that table to fall down, in the Name of 'Jesus Christ,'" and like to a-broke all four legs off, hitting the floor!

L-85   "In My Name they shall cast out devils!" That's the Name of the Father. He put His Name in Jesus Christ. And in Him He meets, to worship. In Him He meets, to cast out devils. In Him He meets, to heal the sick. In Him He meets, to save. In Him He meets, to save, fill with the Holy Ghost. That's God's only place to meet people for worship. Now we find out that Jesus said also that... The word, Name Jesus, means "Jehovah-Saviour," Jehovah the Saviour.
