The Furnace #9

JOHN 12 23 And Jesus answered them, saying, The hour

is come, that the Son of man should be glorified. 24 Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone:

but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. 25 He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he

that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.

26 If any man serve me, let him follow me; and where I am, there shall also my servant be: if any

man serve me, him will my Father honour.

I SAMUEL 22:1 1 David therefore departed thence, and

escaped to the cave Adullam: and when his brethren and all his father's house heard it, they went down

thither to him. 2 And every one that was in distress, and

every one that was in debt, and every one that was discontented, gathered themselves unto him; and

he became a captain over them: and there were with him about four hundred men.

LUKE 7:47 47 Wherefore I say unto thee, Her sins, which

are many, are forgiven; for she loved much: but to whom little is forgiven, the same loveth little.

HEBREWS.CHAPTER.FIVE.AND.SIX.1_ JEFF.IN HEB SUNDAY_ 57-0908M You, you won't have to do nothing. You've already done it, God brought you from death unto Life, and you're alive. Then your

fruits of your life show it.

WISDOM.VERSUS.FAITH_ JEFF.IN V-3 N-17 SUNDAY_ 62-0401 33-1 Now, now, you see that the seed Word cannot

grow in the atmosphere, then, of knowledge. Is that right? See? As soon as

knowledge mixes with faith, it dies right there.

SATAN'S.EDEN_ JEFF.IN V-2 N-20 SUNDAY_ 65-0829 76 Now, Satan, this deceiver, as spoke of in

Matthew 24:24, with so much deceit. Now, we find that by his gospel programs of

knowledge, better education, higher ethics, civilization, and so forth, has bewitched the people that wants to serve God,

into believing his lie.

SATAN'S.EDEN_ JEFF.IN V-2 N-20 SUNDAY_ 65-082977 Eve did not want to do that, but he showed her how it was more wisdom in it. She didn't know;

she wanted to know. She didn't understand, but she wanted to

understand. And God told her not to try to understand.78 How can I

understand any of these things? I cannot understand them. I believe them. I don't have to understand them. God is faith,

and not understanding. We just believe what He said.

SATAN'S.EDEN_ JEFF.IN V-2 N-20 SUNDAY_ 65-0829God put His sons here, His attributes, to fellowship with Him

by hearing His Word.

ROMANS 8 6 For to be carnally minded is death; but to be spiritually

minded is life and peace. 7 Because the carnal mind is enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be. 8 So then they that are in the flesh cannot please God.

52-0900  GOD'S.WAY.THAT'S.BEEN.MADE.FOR.US_  JEFFERSONVILLE.IN  V-25 N-3  21           There's two ways a man can go:

and that's his way or God's way, and that's the right way or the wrong way. And your way is always the wrong way, and God's

way is the right way. And you can't be in your own way and in God's way at the same time, so you got to get out of your own way so God can have His way in you. That's right. God makes a provided way.

52-0900  GOD'S.WAY.THAT'S.BEEN.MADE.FOR.US_  JEFFERSONVILLE.IN  V-25 N-3And I tell you, friends, there's been a many a

man, and is tonight, that's coming down to the end of the road, will find out that that

little shallow religion that you're holding onto won't work. Nothing short of being borned again will work. Jesus said, "Except a man be born of water and Spirit, he will in no wise enter into the Kingdom."

No wise, no matter if he's Methodist, Baptist, Presbyterian, whatever he is, he

will not enter in until he's born of water and Spirit. "Born" means he's "changed." He

has to die before he can be born. So you got to die to yourself, be reborn again in

Christ Jesus. That's right.

LUKE 16 10 He that is faithful in that which is least is faithful also in much: and he that is unjust in

the least is unjust also in much. 11 If therefore ye have not been faithful in the unrighteous mammon, who will commit to your trust

the true riches? 12 And if ye have not been faithful in that which

is another man's, who shall give you that which is your own?

13 No servant can serve two masters: for either he will hate the one, and love the other; or else he

will hold to the one, and despise the other. Ye cannot serve God and mammon.

WHY.LITTLE.BETHLEHEM_ JEFF.IN V-19 N-13 SUNDAY_ 58-1228 92 How in the world can it ever come to pass, the devil on both sides driving at David? He'd

taken refuge in strongholds in the wilderness and in caves, trying to hide out with a little band of faithful warriors,

just a few believing like him. But those men believed God, that that would be the

king.

I KINGS 19:18 18 Yet I have left me seven thousand in Israel, all the knees which have not bowed unto Baal, and

every mouth which hath not kissed him.

ACTS 17:28 28 For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his

offspring.

JOHN 14:19 19 Yet a little while, and the world seeth me no more; but ye see me:

because I live, ye shall live also.

PHILIPPIANS 2:13 13 For it is God which worketh in you both to will and to do of

[his] good pleasure.

80-1 EPHESIAN.CHURCH.AGE - CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.3For Christ, indeed, is the life of the church. She has no

other life. Without Him she is simply a religious society, a club, a meaningless gathering of the

people.

II CORINTHIANS 6 4 But in all [things] approving ourselves as the

ministers of God, in much patience, in afflictions, in necessities, in distresses,

5 In stripes, in imprisonments, in tumults, in labours, in watchings, in fastings;

6 By pureness, by knowledge, by longsuffering, by kindness, by the Holy Ghost, by love unfeigned,

7 By the word of truth, by the power of God, by the armour of righteousness on the right hand and on

the left, 8 By honour and dishonour, by evil report and

good report: as deceivers, and [yet] true; 9 As unknown, and [yet] well known; as dying, and, behold, we live; as chastened, and not killed; 10 As sorrowful, yet alway rejoicing; as poor, yet

making many rich; as having nothing, and [yet] possessing all things.

JOHN 5:19 19 Then answered Jesus and said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, The Son can do

nothing of himself, but what he seeth the Father do: for what things soever he doeth, these also doeth

the Son likewise.

JOHN 14:10 10 Believest thou not that I am in the Father, and the Father in me? the words that I speak unto you I speak not of myself: but the Father that

dwelleth in me, he doeth the works.

25-1 THE.REVELATION.OF.JESUS.CHRIST - CHURCH.AGE.BOOK CPT.1

…on the day of Pentecost that pillar of fire came down and it separated itself in tongues of fire upon

each one of them. What was God doing? He was separating Himself into the church, giving all those

men and women a part of Himself.

GOD'S.SERVANT.JOB_ PHOENIX.AZ WEDNESDAY_ 55-0223

E-13 The Church could just really find that out. If you could positionally find your place in Christ, then all these other things would just fade away like a shadow. Every one that cometh to God, that's true, must have the shadows, and temptations, and fears, and so forth, but just don't get all tore up about it.

What's a little suffering for a little while, knowing that the glory of God will be revealed in the last days

when Jesus comes, when we'll be made like unto Him? He's just working everything together. Did

you know, maybe if you were sick, or something happened to you, that God might've had to do that

just to bring you a little closer to Him?
