<TITLE>09. Par 86-96</TITLE>L-86   Remember, "You shall not worship the Lord..." Why? Verse 5, "You shall not worship the Lord in any gates, that the Lord God giveth thee. Any gates, you shall not worship Him there," God said, in 5th verse here, of Deuteronomy 16. "Thou shall not worship Him in any gates, that the Lord God giveth thee. He give you these things for temptations." We're going to get into that, this week, the Lord willing, see whether God takes His Word back, or not. Notice, He give you them gates, but don't worship the Lord in any of those gates, because the Lord thy God ain't going to meet you there.

L-87 But the Lord God has chosen the gate. He has chosen the door. Jesus said, in Saint John the 10th chapter, "I am the door to the sheepfold. I am that door." He is Jehovah-Saviour.

L-88   Now we could go on here for hours, explaining that. But I'm sure you understand it, by your action, that you--you respond to the Truth and to the Word. So we'll not go any further, you can take it anywhere you wish to. Everywhere you come, if it's the Truth, it'll fall right back in line with the rest of the Word. You can't make the Bible say one thing one place, and something else another, it's contrary to what He said first. It must be the same all the time.

L-89   I'm omitting a lot of Scripture here on this, just because I see it's getting late. And our sister and them is having service here tonight, and we want to pray for the sick. That is, and find out, Billy, if they got some prayer cards.

L-90 [Someone says, "No service tonight."--Ed.] No service. Good. Good, good. All right. Now let's find it. All right. All right. [Congregation applauds] We trust that the Lord will bless this lady for this, letting us have this place, giving us this time.

L-91   There is so many infallible proofs that Jesus is the place. He is the gate, He is the Name, and the only provided way that God has for man to meet in worship. He is the Way, the Truth, the Life; the Gate, the Door; the Alpha, Omega, the Beginning and the Ending; Rose of Sharon, the Lily of the Valley, the Morning Star; the Alpha, Omega. He is all, the whole thing put together. He is both Root and Offspring of David, the Bright and Morning Star. In Him dwells the fulness of the Godhead, bodily, where we in there are sons and daughters to God, in God's Godhead. Yes. As sons and daughters, we're in the family, if you're in there.

L-92   Now how do we get into this great place to worship? That's the next question. How do we get into this place, if Jesus is the place? He is the Name of God. He is the place of God's worship. And He is the only door to the sheephold. And we want to find out how we get into Him then.

L-93 Now, if you're into the door, of course, you come in like the family, as we was talking the other day about, the... or at the breakfast, about the little sheep, that God would not close the door until He found that last little sheep and brought him in. If you've come in, then you become a family. You're a family of God when you've come into God. But you can't be a family of God and be Presbyterian, Methodist, Baptist, and Pentecostal. You can't do it. You have to come into Jesus Christ.

L-94 "Well," you say, "we did it." We'll see if you did it.

L-95   Let's find out what the Bible says now. We find, in First Corinthians, the 12th chapter, the Bible said, "By one Spirit are we all baptized into one Body." We're baptized into the Body of Christ, by one Holy Spirit. We're not shook in, we're not joined in, we're not baptized with water in. We are baptized with the Holy Ghost, into the Body of Jesus Christ.

L-96 How long does it last when you get in There, until you misbehave yourself? Ephesians 4:30 says, "Grieve not the Holy Spirit of God, whereby you are sealed until the day of your redemption." Argue with Him, not me. That's what It says. I'm reading It. All right. "You're sealed until the day of your redemption," until the day that Jesus comes for you. Then think of it!
