BLASPHEMOUS.NAMES_  JEFF.IN  V-3 N-21  SUNDAY_  62-1104M

  22-1    Patience, and so forth, there's a mockery of it, a pretending to be, a nature given faith, a nature given virtue. There's a nature given temperance. And all these things are nature given.

And the biggest part of our faith is mental faith. By hearing the Word it brings us to a mental recognition of God. But if this coming from above, oh, brother, if it ever strikes this, there is a godly, spiritual faith. Then what does that faith do? That faith recognizes only the Word. No matter what anything else says, it only recognizes the Word, because "In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. (And the Word's still God.) And the Word was made flesh and dwelled among us." And when the word Itself is pouring into our faith, our mental faith becomes a spiritual revelation. "And upon this foundation I'll build My Church," (See?), not upon a mental conception of church joining, a mental conception of that, but upon the revelation. When them streams of grace has poured into that mental faith that you've got, then upon this, a spiritual revelation, "I'll build My Church and the gates of hell can't prevail against it." See? That shows they would be against it, but it'll never prevail. Oh, what a glorious thing.

  E-44    You see what I mean? Now, I've often wondered why He said mustard seed. I might drop this thought. Mustard seed is the smallest among all seed. That's right. But there isn't nothing will mix with mustard seed. It's all mustard. You can't mix it with kale or nothing and make it grow. It's all mustard. If you've got that much faith, all faith, not mixed up with something else, ask what you will; it'll be given to you. But it can't be wavering; its got to be genuine mustard, if you know what I'm speaking of. All right, and I said, "How much more would it take?"

"Why," she said, "Looky here, I want to ask you something." She said, "Did God move that or did the devil move that?"

I said, "Neither one moved that."

She said, "Then how in the world did it move?"

I said, "I moved it."

She said, "Well, you're fifteen feet or better away from it."

I said, "No, its my faith that moved it." See? If you ask anything and don't doubt it... See what I mean?

 

MESSIAH.THE_  SHREVEPORT.LA  TUESDAY_  61-0117

  E-33    Here the other night I saw on a telecast of a man with psychic mental faith set a glass of water and stood back and kept concentrating on that glass of water till it bursted it, just by concentration, watching that glass of water. And the glass cracked and the water run out: just pure mental consecration. Why? That's his fibers. That's his makeup. If he can do that--got a power in him by mental thinking that can break a glass of water, and him being a sinner, that shows that there was something made in that man. He's in a fallen--fallen, perverted condition. But if that man can only get back to God, and let God get into him, why, with that power turned loose of the Kingdom of God...

It is true that someone might have enough mental faith to rise up out of a wheelchair or get up off of a cot or a stretcher, but when it come to discerning a spirit perfectly, that takes You, God. That's only You. The greatest miracle that we seen in the--the--the ages is that. But You promised it; it was a sign that You was going to give to the Gentiles just before their closing day.
