“I AM CONVINCED OF THIS GOSPEL”

LUKE 4:16 And he came to Nazareth, where he had been brought up: and, as his custom was, he went into the synagogue on the sabbath day, and stood up for to read. LUKE 4:17 And there was delivered unto him the book of the prophet Esaias. And when he had opened the book, he found the place where it was written, LUKE 4:18 The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because he hath anointed me to preach the gospel to the poor; he hath sent me to heal the brokenhearted, to preach deliverance to the captives, and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty them that are bruised, LUKE 4:19 To preach the acceptable year of the Lord.

LUKE 4:20 And he closed the book, and he gave it again to the minister, and sat down. And the eyes of all them that were in the synagogue were fastened on him.LUKE 4:21 And he began to say unto them, This day is this scripture fulfilled in your ears.LUKE 4:22 And all bare him witness, and wondered at the gracious words which proceeded out of his mouth. And they said, Is not this Joseph's son?LUKE 4:23 And he said unto them, Ye will surely say unto me this proverb, Physician, heal thyself: whatsoever we have heard done in Capernaum, do also here in thy country.LUKE 4:24 And he said, Verily I say unto you, No prophet is accepted in his own country.

LUKE 4:25 But I tell you of a truth, many widows were in Israel in the days of Elias, when the heaven was shut up three years and six months, when great famine was throughout all the land; LUKE 4:26 But unto none of them was Elias sent, save unto Sarepta, a city of Sidon, unto a woman that was a widow.LUKE 4:27 And many lepers were in Israel in the time of Eliseus the prophet; and none of them was cleansed, saving Naaman the Syrian.

LED.BY.THE.HOLY.SPIRIT_ ZION.IL SUNDAY_ 52-0727E-2 I love you with undying Christian love. As long as I have a memory of Zion, there'll be a soft spot in my heart for Zion and its people. I will pray for you, that God will give you a--another revival before the coming of the Lord, that He will do it. Wished I could see it. I hope I'm living to see the time when I see the--see the people around the nation gathering into Zion again. Wouldn't that be wonderful? Keep praying and keep looking up. God will reveal.E-3 I am your servant in the Lord to do for you whatever I can. I used to say to the people: The night doesn't get too dark, or the rain fall too hard, but what I'll come, crawl, anything. I had to kind of check that after I got so many millions of friends. Yet, that doesn't make me feel the least bit superior. I feel just the same, brother. I'll do this, brother, sister. Any time that I can, and do you a favor, God will just let me do it, I'll be glad too.

GETTING.IN.THE.SPIRIT_ CHICAGO.IL FRIDAY_ 61-0428E-17 As soon as the school of theology, up on top of the mountain from Jericho, come back and seen Elijah--Elisha cross over. And seen the miracle that he did, just exactly like Elisha did it. Why, they said, "The spirit of Elisha--Elijah rests on Elisha." And then we find out then that the people knew that the Spirit of God was upon this prophet. So they consulted him, if he wouldn't perform some miracle for them, for something good. He said, "We got a beautiful city here. Sets on the hill and the--the views are pretty and it's a fine place for a school and so forth. As Elijah has built, but the water here is bitter." And they needed some new--a spring.

“I am convinced that we have crossed over into a new cycle, a new day, a new message. I’m convinced it is the Spirit of God in the Son of David Ministry. I’m convinced that we have spear-headed another great awakening!”

GETTING.IN.THE.SPIRIT_ CHICAGO.IL FRIDAY_ 61-0428E-18 And of course, they were changing. And they had to have a new fountain opened up. And so, you can't put new wine in old bottles. It'd burst them, you know. And I think today is a day also, when we--we need a change of water. We need a cruse of salt, a new cruse of salt in which there has never been anything in before. And God usually does that. Rise up some little person out of somewhere that knows nothing and throws a cruse of salt into some old ecclesiastical water. And the first thing you know, it's all become sweet again, another revival, the Holy Ghost a falling on everybody and going everywhere.That's what we--we need tonight. That's what we need again, is another dash of salt, don't you think so to sweeten up the water? Remember, he took a brand new cruse. Wherein there had been nothing and put salt in it. Now, salt is a savour if it contacts. But it's got to contact first. It's got to make its contact.

112 Here stood Samson, standing in the corner, thinking of all that had been. And these Philistines standing up there, with their arms around these women, looking down, belching and drunk, and celebrating the victory over Jehovah's servant.

113 And the church tonight, like a bunch of Philistines, is gloating over the idea that a Council of Churches, after a while, will shut out every church that don't belong to it. Samson, don't never bob your hair! Stay right with that Word. I don't care what happens, you stay right there with that Word. Don't get mixed up in that.

114 Samson begin to think, "Wonder if there is a possibility?" Now he said, "I know my hair has growed out, but I'm blind. There could be a possibility of another revival. There is a possibility."

4 And I understood that in France, this morning, there's better than two thousand Frenchmen on a several-day fast that we'll come bring the Message to France in French. The whole Protestant nation, Protestant part of the nation of France. And so we are...5 It's just begin blooming now, just begin, the shuck's pulling away so the wheat can lay out there now. See? So just keep reverent, keep praying. See? Remember, "They that wait upon the Lord, renew their strength."6 Now, there's... I was... getting pretty old, and I thought, "Will I... Will there be another revival, I'll see another time?" And just remember, from the west will come a white horse rider. We'll ride this trail again. That's right. Soon as... we're about ready. It's a promise, you see.

82 Now, there's no revival. Everybody is complaining, ministers crying. I was reading one of the--the outstanding papers that comes here to the church, a very fine paper. And I know the editor, and I know the people. And they are godly people, very fine, Brother and Sister Moore, of the Herald of His Coming. One of the finest papers on the field, Herald of His Coming. But they hardly will print anything unless it's about, "Fast, pray! Fast, pray! Sound a trumpet! Get..." How many reads it? You know. You see it all the time, "Fast, pray! Fast, pray!" It's all you hear. "Fast, pray! We're going to have a great breaking of the day! There is a great thing going to happen! All of you, pray, pray, pray! We're not too late yet!“

“The same spirit is among the people today as they are all the time looking to the future for some coming happening and they missed the messenger in this day!”

83 Why do they do that? Why do they do that? They want a great awakening. They're crying, believing that there will be awakening. They're good people. Why is it? What have they done? They have not recognized the awakening of the Bride. See? By being a Christian, they feel the pull of the hour, but they haven't recognized what's been done. That's what's making them feel that way. They know something is supposed to happen, but, see, they're looking for it way off in the future, to come, when it's already happened right by you.84 That's the same thing they did in the old days. They was believing in a coming Messiah. They believed that there would be a forerunner come. But it was right on them, and they didn't know it. They didn't recognize it. They believed there would come a forerunner that would forerun the Messiah, and they cut his head off. And killed their Messiah

And now I am convinced above any shadow of doubt that your God is the real God. And God has anointed you to lead His people, and I even see more than what I heard about.

E-82 Shamgar got enough of it. He said, "I am convinced that He's God. I am concerned with my family." You know what he did? He taken that ox-goad, and jumped out there in the middle of the road, and slew six hundred Philistines.

“We had enough of the same old message, bondage to a man, and we picked up what God gave us and destroyed the traditions of the “message clergy and their groups”!”

CONVINCED.AND.THEN.CONCERNED_CHICAGO.IL MONDAY_62-0521

E-54 I'm convinced that this is God, ….because the prophet said, "It shall be Light in the evening time." I'm convinced that the Scripture's fulfilled. I'm convinced. ... I'm convinced that the coming of the Lord is at hand. I'm convinced that what we have is the Holy Ghost. I believe the church of Jesus Christ is a called out group that's been sanctified by the Blood of Jesus Christ, and set aside for service. I believe this thing that we see doing is the appearing of the Lord Jesus in our midst, as He said.

CONVINCED.THEN.CONCERNED_S.PINES.NCV-3 N-3SUNDAY_62-0610E29-6 I'm convinced in the ministry and the Message I'm preaching. I am convinced that It's the Truth.

I'm convinced that the Holy Ghost way is right. I'm convinced that the Bible way is the Truth. I'm convinced that This is Jesus Christ here now.

E-42 Now, remember. Andrew, as soon as he was discern... convinced, he was concerned about his brother. He wanted his brother to know something about it. You can't hold it still. You've got to do something about it. Stephen was convinced. Now, we notice, when you are convinced then you're concerned. And that's the reason I'm so convinced that the church is in this Laodicea estate, and that's the reason I'm concerned about it. It isn't that I don't like these things; it's because that I'm thoroughly convinced that I'm telling the truth from the Word of God. I watch His moves. I've seen myself do things I wonder why, and I look back and here it is. He speaks to me, and I wonder, "I never thought of that. Why here, that's it exactly." Then I am convinced, and that's the reason I'm concerned.

QUESTIONS.AND.ANSWERS.ON.HEBREWS.3_JEFF.IN COD SUNDAY _57-1006

352-915 Someday I'm going to leave here. I'm wondering, "What will be my end?" Is it over? Is it just about? I'm forty-eight years old. Is it just about over? I wonder this, if it is. Look, why didn't the world realize that picture there? Why didn't they catch that right quick? Why don't they catch these other things? Why don't they catch these prophecies and things? You know, they can't do it now, but one day I'm going to leave the world, and when I leave, then they'll recognize It. Some of you young people will realize that after I'm gone. See? But God wouldn't permit it to be done now...

“We are here now and we are mature. God has permitted us to see the fulfillment in our day. We realize what has happened and “WHAT IS HAPPENING”, and we thank our God every day!”

THE.MINISTRY.EXPLAINED_ CHICAGO.IL MONDAY_ 56-1001

E-21 No true messenger... Listen now. No real true messenger, to this day, or no day at any time, has ever been received by the world. No messenger of God has never been received by the world. And may I say this a little stout now? Never did the ecclesiastic system of this world ever receive God's messenger. Think of that. Through all ages when men makes their ecclesiastical systems, and God sends His messengers, they've condemned him. Jesus said, "Which one of the prophets has your fathers not stoned?" Which one of them? See? Sure, they're always condemned when they have the message of God, 'cause it is contrary to man's thoughts of God. Man tries to make his own theory. See? And he can't do it.

“We see it again, God has sent a true message that is now sweeping out and catching his Wife and his real true word messengers are being rejected again!”

BALM.IN.GILEAD_ CLEVELAND.TN TUESDAY_ 59-0707E-14 God sends His messengers, and He sends His prophets; He sends His Gospel; He makes His Churches a flaming fire, and men constantly fight right over it. He sends It out over the ether waves of the radio; He sends It over the television; He sends It by the published word; He sends It from lip to ear, and men constantly walk right over it.

so, then it's later than you think. If not, then there's coming one with a message that's straight on the Bible, and quick work will circle the earth. The seeds will go in newspapers, reading material, until every predestinated seed of God has heard it. None of them will come unless the Father's drawed them, and everyone the Father has drawed will hear it and come. That'll be the predestinated Seed will hear the Word.

724-180 Then when that takes place, it'll be a gathering together. And Jesus shall appear, and there will go the church from all over the earth like that, with the resurrection, going up. Will it be like John came and even the elected disciples didn't even know it? They said, "Why saith the scribes that Elias must first come?" He said, "He's already come and you didn't know it." But said, "They did what they said they would do unto him." His message was so quick, look, to all of Israel, and it only happened in one little--two--two little spots, just below in Jerusalem and there, or down at Aenon, where John went up to baptize, and right down at the river where he was baptizing, the river dried up. Just six months and the whole introduction of the Messiah come right in. See?
