We know what He promised to do

Share

If you had a little boy sitting out on the street, and you said, "Junior, dear, you better come in, dear. It might be, I don't know, they'll probably drive around you." You don't love that child. That's right. You will get out there and shuck the hide off of him, or make him come in. That's right. You love him. That's the way the Gospel is. God loves you. "And those that He loves, He chastens and rebukes every child that comes to Him." If you can't stand chastisement, you go away and get angry about it, then you're illegitimate children, and not the children of God. So just remember, it's just the Scripture. Now a Word from Him, one Word, will mean more than I could say, a million lifetimes. It's Him. We know His promise. We know what He promised to do.

It's just got to be put together

...a real Bible believer, punctuate every one of these promises of God with a "amen." That's right. If you can't believe it all... You say, "Well, I believe this, but I don't know about That. You've got the same interpreter that Eve had. She tried... he tried to interpret It to Eve, "Oh, this is right, and that's right, and, oh, that's truly that, but surely God..." God said so, and every Word! There is not one Word or one phase of It can be misaccepted. If you don't accept It with all your heart, every bit of It, then you might as well not even start at all. See? Remember, it was one little phrase of It, just turned around, that caused every sickness, every heartache, every death, everything. It caused it all. Just by misbelieving one little phrase, caused all this, do you think just deliberately walking over one little phrase will get you back? When, people don't accept half of It, sometime, and then call themselves "Christian." See? See? It's all right, every bit of It, It's just got to be put together. And there is only One can do it, that's the Holy Spirit, by interpreting It by His Own fulfilling what He said He would do.

This is God, His Word

Watch. He had to obey It, Word by Word. "Take off your shoes, Moses. The ground whereon you stand is holy." What if Moses said, "Well, now, Lord, I just had some schooling. Honor is 'take off your hat,' so I'll take off my hat"? That would never have worked. When God said, "Shoes," He meant shoes. When God said, "Borned again," He meant borned again. He don't mean a handshake or a repeat of creed. Everybody is scared of that new Birth. The Devil substituted a handshake for it, or some kind of a psychic affair, that would make you acknowledge, "Yes, I'm borned again." But your life tells what you are, the life that's in you. You say you are borned of the Spirit of God, and deny one Word of that Bible, it shows you're not. You try to place It back on something else, that shows it wasn't the Holy Spirit, 'cause He would never deny His Own Word. You say, "Well, my church teaches that." There, it shows you're not. You're borned of the church, not of God. This is God, His Word.

You know you met God on those sacred sands

Share

It is not the holy church; it's the Holy Spirit in the Church that makes it holy. It isn't the holy man; it's the Holy Spirit in the man that does it. Not a holy man, there's no such a thing; it's a Holy Spirit. And Peter was referring to this as a holy mountain, because a holy God met them on this mountain. It was a sacred sand. And let me stop here this afternoon and say this: that each one of you people that's been borned again of the Holy Spirit, you remember the very hour where the Holy Spirit, the very spot, where He met you. And when doubts come, and fears begin to rise, there's always that certain place, that you can come back to that time where you met God, and the devil can't tread on those sacred sands. It's where you met God and you talked to Him. Though fears and things rise, it has nothing to do with it. You know you met God on those sacred sands.

It'll be light in the evening time

"It'll be light in the evening time." The clouds broke back. Denominations are broke (Hallelujah.), and the people has entered into the baptism of the Holy Spirit with signs and wonders just like they had in the beginning. "It'll be light in the evening time." And remember, it was in the evening time when the Bride was chosen. Rebekah was taken in the evening time. It was the evening time that she met Isaac: he was out in the field. It's evening time. Our Gentile revival is ending pretty soon. The Jews are going to take the revival. As soon as they can see the power of God manifesting and receive the Holy Ghost, they'll take the Gospel. Our Gentile days are ending. Get into the Kingdom while you're... have a chance to get into the Kingdom.

We are more than millionaires

Share

Some time ago, there was a poverty-stricken woman, here in the states. And her estate of her financial condition was so low till they were going to have to bring the county to help her out. And when the investigators came and said to this certain woman, "How come that you are so poor till you have to ask the county to give you help?" And she gave the story of her husband being dead, and left her with one son. And this son became a business man and had went away to India. And she had not had a penny from him for so many years, but she'd had some of the sweetest letters that she'd ever read. And said, "Maybe he is in such a condition that he could not help me. And he's such a sweet boy." Said, "I--I don't want to ask him for anything." And said, "You mean that your son, a business man, has only sent you letters and that's all he's sent?" And the blessed old mother pulled out her little spectacles, and put them over her nose, and said, "No, he sent me some of the prettiest pictures I ever seen." And she goes through her Bible and she fumbles through her Bible for a little bit, and she picks out a great big package of little pieces of paper and laid them down to the investigators. Said, "Just look, what pretty pictures." And when the investigator had read them, they were bank drafts. She was worth thousands of dollars, and she didn't know it. That's the way it is tonight, with most people. If we'd just take our fingers through the Bible of God's promises, we are more than millionaires of the riches of his grace. Though, no matter what we had done, "Come, let us reason together," saith God. He's give us the promises, but we just think the Bible is something that just the preachers should read, or that certain people just have all the--the reasoning of it. It's for "whosoever will." Every promise is just as good today, as it was the day it was wrote in the Bible.

He growed a crop

Share

God could not bless Seth until He separated him from Cain. He marked Cain and sent him to the land of Nod. And Cain, with his smart wisdom, become scientists and everything else, growed a crop of that. And Seth, under his righteousness, and the love and faith in the Word of God, he growed a crop that produced a prophet that warned the last days, that's right, saved every believer. And the wisdom destroyed every one of them. They, every one, died. Every one, no matter how many degrees and psychology they had, everything else, they perished in the judgments of God. And everything outside of the true, born-again Spirit of God, that believes every Word of That and stands right on It, will perish in the judgments of God. You see these little twisters going down the street, and all this carrying on, and carrying on like that, remember, it's nothing in the world but fodder for the judgment. It'll rot. It'll got to. It's just bound to. Women, wake up.
