<TITLE>42. Par 281-287</TITLE>L-281   I forget sometimes to recognize things, presenting, to dedicate the babies.
Billy said, the other day, a man come, said, "I been coming here for two years, get my baby dedicated."
Billy said, "Don't think bad about that. I've got a baby, a year old, and he ain't been dedicated yet, either. So I'm just going to wait till he gets old enough to walk up there himself, I guess."

L-282 So we find brother, sister, it's not--it's not, see, I... One thing, we should dedicate our children.
We should baptize every one. There's a pool; here is water. If you haven't been, what hinders thee? Here is water. Come right now. Don't wait till tonight; come right now. There is man standing here will baptize anybody that's repented and made confession. If you been baptized a dozen times, they'll baptize you in the Name of Jesus Christ for remission of sin. See? We have that.

L-283   But, see, the Message is on my heart. I must get It out. That's my sole purpose, regardless of what my wife says, my children says, my pastor says, my whatever says. It's my Lord. I must get That out. That's my sole purpose.

L-284   And now, many times, I forget to recognize the ministers. I guess maybe... our brother, Brother Neville, a precious man. These other brethren here, we're happy to have you.

L-285 Not that we disagree with you, brother, to be different. Many of you here might be trinitarian preachers. We don't want to be angry with you. We love you. If we didn't, if I didn't believe that, I'd never leave this church till I got down there on my knees and said, "God, make me right."
I don't want that arrogant, selfish spirit mixed up with mine. I want my spirit to be pure and clean, brotherly love, holy with the Holy Spirit. Now, if someone does anything wrong to me, that's all right. And though I might have the right to get back at them, I don't want that in my life. No, I--I want to have love. I want to be ready to correct with love, with love that absolutely answers out yonder for it.

L-286   I don't mean to be different. Methodist, Baptist, Catholic, Presbyterian, whoever you are, I don't say these things to be different, be arrogant with you. If I did, I'm a hypocrite and should be down here at this altar, praying through to God.
But I say it, it's because of love, and I see where you're going. Now, I don't say this in myself, and saying I'm presuming. I give you THUS SAITH THE LORD. That is the Truth. And I love you for those things. God bless you.

L-287   Now as we sing another verse of this song, let's, before we go. We want you to be here tonight, if you can. If you can't, God be with you till we meet. We just pray that God will--will bless you and give you the best of His land, see.
Take the Name of Jesus...
