55-1006E The Power Of God
But if you don't accept Light,
it'll become darkness to you. You'll criticize It, and call It holy-roller, and
you might as well have a millstone hanged at your neck, and drowned in the
depths of the sea. You blaspheme the Holy Ghost. There's not forgiveness. Said,
"Who speaks a word against the Son of man would be forgiven. But if you
speak against the Holy Ghost, it'll never be forgiven you." But, oh, you
knowed so much. So you made fun of the people that was in the Spirit of God,
believing in Divine healing, and the resurrection of Christ, and the powers of
God. You made fun of it, turned up your nose and walked out of church. I want
you to see what happens when you stand before the King Who sent this Message.
Uh-huh. Oh, you think you got it big, but just wait till the day comes. This is
man's day, the Lord's day's coming. That's right.
57-0623 Believe From The Heart
A man's work
declares his character. Christ was God's work. And Christ declared God's
character, His feeling for the sick, His longing for saving of souls, till even
He gave His own life. God's work... God's character was declared in Christ. And
if you can just empty your own intellectual thoughts out and give God the right
of way, He can declare His character through the work of your yielding. Empty
out; get the world, get your doubts out of the way. If you come to the altar to
be prayed for, say, "I'll go up and see if I get healed," God can
never declare His works. You've got to get your own thoughts out of the way and
let Him fill you.
56-0902 The Handwriting On The Wall
There's
only one thing and only one place in the Bible that has ever acted that made a
person take off their clothes and they were devil-possessed. That's right. It's
the truth, and it's no compliment on that--compromising. It's the truth. It's the devil that gets into those
people that makes them strip their clothes off. It's the devil. You don't mean
to be wrong, but woman, it's the devil doing that. It used to be wrong
for holiness women to wear paint on their face. And now, they just gob it in on
any way and sing and shout and praise the Lord like there was nothing to it.
Oh, brother, do you realize that
that's the devil that's a doing that? Purpose in your heart that you'll
live. If it's old fashion, live old
fashion and serve the Lord God of the heavens and earth. Purpose in your heart.

Presuming
Don't presume;
stay with the Word. Don't accept nothing different. Stay exactly what God said
stay with. Stay with the Word. Amen. God is obligated. God's obligated to His
Word. And if the Word's in you, He's obligated to you with His Word. But when you
do like Eve, doubt one little speck of it and move something in to substitute,
you're out, right there. Stay with the Word. Let's not presume anything. Let's
just take what the Word says and believe it. Will you do that?
