Azusa Jubilee (56-0916)

 

^E-1
Thank you very much…?… Thank you very kindly. It's indeed a
privilege to be here this marvelous Angelus Temple this afternoon in
the celebration of this Azusa Street outpouring of the Holy Spirit. See
so many people gathered out, still contending for the faith that was
once delivered to the saints. And we're trusting that through this
great time of this week coming, where many anointed speakers will be
speaking, that God will do the exceeding abundantly for us, that
His–His Presence will be with us at every meeting. And trusting that
from this gathering will go forth an old fashion Pentecostal meeting
that'll sweep the world before the coming of our Lord Jesus.

^E-2
And now, I know it's warm, and we'll go right straight to the Word,
reading out of the Book of Saint Luke the 4th chapter and beginning
with the 14th verse I read this:

And may the Lord add His blessings to the reading of His Word.

^E-3
What a privilege it is to be in Los Angeles today, knowing that many
years ago as the Spanish sailed up-and-down this west coast, found this
great spot here, that this… Little did they know that the great city
would be here some–someday.
And then to be here in the Angelus Temple today, which is an
outstanding memorial to the full Gospel faith, and in the celebration
of the great outpouring of the Holy Spirit at Azusa Street fifty years
ago… I was looking in the paper and seeing the picture of the–the
old Azusa Street Mission. And to–just below it was a picture of this
beautiful Angelus Temple, which is a–a long ways that the church has
come since the days of this, from the old mission to this place.

^E-4
And I think the association has selected a wonderful place to hold this
rally, because this temple stands today as a memorial a little mother,
who felt that down in her heart that Jesus Christ still lived and
reigned, Mrs. McPherson. She sleeps up in Forest Lawn today, her body,
but her gallant soul is at rest with God: and partings leave behind
her, footprints on the sands of time.
Be in the Temple here with Brother McPherson, her son, and Brother
Teeford, and many of the other staff, and the workers, and to see the
members of this great fellowship gathering from all parts of the
country to come in for this great rally… I'm grateful to have the
opportunity to speak to you just these two nights or two times of
service. And we all want you to unite our hearts together in prayer to
believe and to trust God for another great outpouring. God is just the
same; He doesn't fail. And it's not a–exactly a–a–a jubilee of Azusa
Street, it was when Jesus preached the acceptable year of the jubilee,
was brought down at Pentecost and has been ever since. And we're just
continuing on the great jubilee that started some nineteen hundred
years ago, Pentecost.

^E-5
I'm so happy today to have received the baptism of the Holy Ghost and
to be a fellow worshiper of like precious faith as you all stand for
today. Feel like one out of season, 'cause there is many here who was
preaching the Gospel before I was born. Knowing that it was in 1906, I
believe, when this great outpouring come to California; that was years
before I was born. People are setting here today who remembers that,
many of them worshipped at that time, hero's of the faith, aging up,
hairs turning gray. But I tell you, my brethren, there's a great reward
laying at the other side when we pass over someday. Seeing what it's
cost down through the years, how I talked to people, how they laid out
late at night, walked on railroad tracks, picked up corn, broke it for
their children, lived hard, to see this great church prosper and come
on.
Some glorious day I hope to meet in another great jubilee, when all the
redeemed of the ages can stand on the rim of this earth singing the
story of redemption, when angels are gathered around the earth with
bowed heads, not even knowing what we're talking about. They never
needed redemption, but we poor lost sinners was redeemed by His grace,
and we know what it means to sing the redemptive story, and the song.
What a great time that'll be when we crown Him the King of kings and
the Lord of lords.

^E-6
And today, my Scripture reading comes from Christ, where He entered the
temple and said that He was to preach the acceptable year. And the
anointing of the Lord was upon Him; He read the Book and set down. It
said precious words proceeded from His lips.
Back in the Old Testament there was a–a year called the year of
jubilee. It was the year that all of the captives could be set free.
Every man that had been in captivity could go free. It has a great
meaning to this day of what that stood for as a type.
Now, today it may not [Blank.spot.on.tape–Ed.]…
take an awl, bore the ear, which would mark them to serve this master
forever. And how typical that is of today. And how typical it was of
fifty years ago when the Holy Spirit first fell in that barn down here
where I'm taught that it was a cow barn. When Jesus first come to earth
in the form of flesh, God, He was born in a manger. And when He come to
Los Angeles He still come to a barn. That's the humility of God,
bringing yourself down in order to redeem us from sin.

^E-7
Then this person that was–did not want to go free could–had to be
sealed, a beautiful type today of the sealing of God or the marking of
the beast, which has been so much disputed, what it was. "Now, faith
cometh by hearing, hearing of the Word of God." And when we hear that
we are free and refuse to act upon our freedom, then we will be sealed.
To my opinion, to be sealed away from God is to receive the mark of the
beast. For to hear is to receive. And when we hear that we are free,
then we can accept it and be free.
Now, when the hearer heard the jubilee sound, and if he didn't want to
be free, then he had to be sealed. And it is today, that when men and
women hear this marvelous Gospel of the Lord Jesus Christ and of the
baptism of the Holy Ghost, you're at a place where you have to make a
choice. You can never hear it and be the same. If you accept it, you
receive Christ. If you refuse it, you're sealed away from Christ. And
it makes a difference of your attitude towards the hearing of the Word.

^E-8
And I was speaking this morning in a wonderful place here in the city,
a Tabernacle, and was speaking upon that very subject, that God wants
His Church to be free. Many things has happened during these fifty
years, many people, believers, has been caught and taken captive by the
world. Many people, denomination barriers, sometime has separated
fellowship and drawed barriers.
I was thinking here not long ago, someone asked me, said, "Brother Branham, what church do you belong to?"
I said, "There's really only one Church. The 'Church' means 'the called out.'"
Said, "But I mean what denomination do you belong to?"
I said, "None at the time, and yet all of them."

^E-9
Brother Shakarian made a statement the other morning that has stuck
with me, he said, "Pentecost is not a denomination. It's not an
organization. It is an experience with God that men and women receive."
God–Methodists, Baptists, Presbyterians, and all can receive this
experience when they hear the Word and decide to act upon it. The Holy
Ghost has been in the earth for nearly two thousand years, and
whosoever will may come and be partakers of It. And everyone that's
captured can be free when they hear the Word. Now, if you refuse to,
then it's shut up.

^E-10
Here some time ago, I used to ride up here in Colorado quite a bit on a
cattle ranch. And we grazed cattle up on the Arapaho Forest. And every
man that could–had a ranch in the valley, that could raise a ton of
hay, could put a cow on the pasture for the summer. The ranger stood
and counted the cattle as they passed through. Many times have I with
the little herds of cattle go up there to put our cattle on the forest
for the year.
And I noticed them as they come through, they had different brands,
like they were, well, the–the Lazy K, the Diamond T, many different
brands. As they passed through the gates, they were wearing different
brands, but nothing went through that gate but a registered hereford.
I think that's what it'll be at the end of the road, God won't notice
just what brand we got, but every man passes through is borned again of
the Spirit of God. No matter what brand you're wearing, just as long as
you're a genuine believer, Spirit born saint of God, you'll go through
the gate at that day, as sure as the world. What a beautiful picture.

^E-11
Then we notice the cattleman's place out in there, sometimes after they
was all in the great forest to be grazing, then they would take and
have drift fences. Some were chosen to go in certain valleys to graze.
And they'd put drift fences so that they could not get out of this
certain place. But then, at the end of the season these drift fences
was all taken down. And all the cattle got together to celebrate a
great big jubilee. They were all herefords, so they all had a right to
celebrate a jubilee.
And I pray God, that in this coming week that all the drift fences of
denominations will be tore down, and all the borned again children of
God will be brought together in one great big Holy Ghost rally jubilee,
where they all get together again.

^E-12
Down along through the ages, down through the past fifty years, many
things has happened in the churches. Many people have fallen away.
We're sorry to say this, but today in this great fabulous temple,
beautiful as it is, and we thank God for it. But I'm sure today that
every believer along with Brother [Blank.spot.on.tape–Ed.]
and all the rest of you would part with everything we got and lay it on
the altar of God, for an old fashion pouring out of the Holy Ghost
again like it was in the beginning. What we need is that today, my
Christian friend, a jubilee time.
Now, the devil has taken many believers captive during this time: For
instance, coldness and worldliness has slipped into the church. Now, we
could take another subject, but I think myself, as one of you together,
the thing we're here for today is in celebration of the old fashion
Holy Ghost revivals, that we used to have, that I hear our fathers talk
about: how the Angels came down and sang in the meetings, and the power
of God taken over, and saints were borned again, and great things
happened. And it come from old fashion, back woods, sky blue, sin
killing preaching. And the old sassafras type, maybe, men that didn't
know their abc's, but they knowed Christ and had the baptism of the
Holy Ghost. That's what we hunger for today, is an old fashion baptism
of the Holy Ghost and a pouring out of God's blessings. Back to the old
line again.

^E-13
Many times that we let the world slip in. That's what's the matter with
our churches today; we kindy let down a little bit here and there. The
devil has come in from one place to the other, taking a little bit,
slip in here, just a little of this place here and a little place here.
And the first thing you know, it's got the whole thing in a confusion.
But what I pray to God, that during the time of this old fashion rally,
that we're having here, that men will forget all their traditions, all
the things that has hindered, and lay aside every weight, and come back
to an old fashion meeting, where people will be born again. I pray that
God will give us hundreds of Spirit filled people at the altar there
praying through to God over sinners and things that comes in during
this meeting. Oh, what a difference.
Now, people, I love you all; you embraced me as your brother when I was
one borned out of season, but I'm responsible. And I believe that we're
entering the second coming of the Lord Jesus Christ. I believe that
we're at the end time.

^E-14
You know Jesus preached the acceptable year, then after His preaching
come the jubilee. We've had a great outpouring here in these last days.
God has met with us with old fashion meetings across the country, and I
believe we're now just at the end of that. I believe we're at the end
of the road, waiting for the coming of the Lord Jesus. I think what the
next thing we're waiting for, is a bringing together of all God's
people that's been strayed away and different things that's taken us
captivity.
For instance, some of our morals of our church. Years ago when Mrs.
McPherson stood at this pulpit, and others up-and-down. And this one
eyed colored man down here in Azusa Street, they preached the old
fashion Gospel, and men and women lived like godly people, great things
taken place and today we let down the bars.
For instance, not to hammer, I don't believe in that, but brother, I
believe that we're here today, and the Holy Spirit is among these five
thousand, better, people setting here, and we at one–this one
gathering here, if we'd only let God have His way in every heart, it
would start a revival that the papers would pack it from sea to sea and
from coast to coast. Back to the old hewing lines.

^E-15
The devil's took many of us captive. Years ago it was a sin for you
women to cut your hair. But today Pentecostal women look just like the
women of the street; you can't tell the difference. That's right. It
was–used to be it was a sin, back in the old days, for women to wear
make-up. And today you can't tell the sinner from the saint. What's the
matter? Back to the old hewing line again, back to real Pentecost, back
to the old Azusa experience, back to… That's right.
And then some of you preachers that let down the bars, and some of you
men, why, you know, I'm ashamed of you. Any man would–that call
hisself a borned again child of God would let his wife act and do the
way the Pentecostal people let their women act today, it shows there's
very–not very much man about you. That's exactly the truth. What we
need today, brother, is a calling back to the old fashion baptism of
the Holy Ghost and people is right back again. Amen. That's the truth,
brother. It may scorch a little bit, but I'd rather be scorched here
than burn.
If the devil has took you captive, it's jubilee time. It's time to come
back to the old experience again, back to the old fashion Bible, back
to the place where we can feel the power of God surge through, that'll
call men and women to the altar. That'll make them stay on their face
all night long and pray to God and seek for deliverance. Amen. What a
time.

^E-16
I tell you, Mrs. McPherson's gone on; many of the old timers has gone
on; but if there was such a thing that they could look over the
banisters of glory today, they'd holler "Amen" to that as certainly as
I'm standing here. That's right. Back to the old hewing line again:
back to Pentecost.
What we need to do is get rid of a lot of our fancy fandangos and get
back to the Bible, and back to the old fashion Holy Ghost, and back to
the place where man and women look, and act, and walk like Christians.
Amen. You might think I'm a little excited; I am just a little crazy;
but I tell you: I love to be this way.
Sometime ago, going down the streets here in Los Angeles, I seen a man
had a sign on the front of him, he said, "I'm a fool for Christ." And
on his back he said, "Who's fool are you?" So I'd just rather be a fool
for Christ, than be a fool for the devil anytime.

^E-17
What we need today, ministers, what we need today, brothers and
sisters, is this one thing: The devil has got into our church and got
us all formal, indifferent. What we need is a calling back. What we
need is an old fashion gathering together again, the sounding of the
Jubilee, the pouring forth of the Holy Ghost, the out coming of the
Spirit. Amen. Sure, there's cause to come back to the prayer meeting.
It's true, we have just begin to fashion off just like the world, do
just the same things the world does. How it happened is a lot of
Hollywood evangelism, and a lot of television, staying home at night
watching television, instead of going to prayer meeting, watching "Who
Loves Lucy" and all that kind of stuff, and staying away from the Word
of God, and away from the church. And I tell you brother, that's the
reason. You know that's the truth. God help us today to come back to
the old fashion Pentecostal experience of the Baptism of the Holy
Ghost.

^E-18
And a lot of that's 'cause the–the pastor let down the bars too;
that's exactly right laity. Yes, sir. What we need today is a culling
out, calling out, pulling out jubilee, old fashion revival, is what we
need. That is true. Sinners weeping their way through to Calvary…
Here some time ago a member of a certain big church, certain
denominational Pentecostal, the man wanted to come into a fellowship of
the church and didn't want to do it public, and the deacons took him a
fellowship behind the curtains. What he ought to be done is kicked out
behind the curtains to the altar, is what we need today to call back a
real Pentecostal experience. We need it again. We don't need a new
Angelus Temple. We don't need new churches. We got some of the finest
churches that stands on soil today. We don't need a new Angelus Temple.
The thing we need is a revival in the Angelus Temple. What we need
today is a revival in Pentecost.

^E-19
We don't need a new Pentecostal denomination. No, sir, God forbid. We
don't need a new denomination, but we need to revive what we've already
denominated. That's exactly what we need, is a good old fashion
revival. God knows that that's true.
Then you'll see the powers of God move down one more time. And there'll
be a sound of the mulberry bushes, as the Holy Spirit moves before
Spirit filled messages and Spirit filled people as they go to the world
to preach the Gospel. We're indeed grateful for what He has done. We're
thankful for all these things.
But, brother, sister, what I mean today, we need a rededication. We
need a re-pouring out. And what a beautiful time it would be this
afternoon, when thousands of people are gathered here in this beautiful
temple… And how that if we would rededicate our lives again and
purpose in our heart that we're going home, wash our face, clean up,
and not only our face, but our souls, and not in Los Angeles water but
in the Blood of the Lord Jesus Christ and the power of God, and start a
new life over again. That's what we need today, washed in the Blood of
the Lamb. Yes, sir.

^E-20
What a picture, what a time, what a… Why, I don't want to keep you
long. But I tell you friends: What we need today is some good old
fashion long staying meetings. Why, back in the early days when I read
the books of early Pentecost, they preached all night, prayed all
night. What a time that was. And while we fallen away, God's just as
willing to pour out His Holy Spirit on the audience today as He was any
other time through the age. God's got every rain barrel full, if you've
got a heart to receive it. That's right. Amen.
We've seen signs and wonders. I thank God for all the manifestations of
the Holy Spirit. I thank God for every person that speaks with tongues.
I thank God for every person that interprets, every gift of healing,
every prophecy, everything that God has done. Every pastor, every
evangelist, every member of His body, I thank God for it. But what we
need today is a rededication, a coming together, a moving back to the
old path. And brother, if we don't do it, in another fifty years or–He
won't stand that long. But if we could stay another ten years, what
will it be, if we don't come together right quick and get back to the
old hewing lines again? Come back to the old fashion Azusa Street
Pentecostal revival. We've got to have it.
If you could only think of how glorious the Lord Jesus Christ is to us,
what He has done for us: How He's been long suffering, not willing that
any should perish, but that all might come to repentance.

^E-21
Sometime ago in a little city, where I was in, we were holding a
meeting. I had to stay out in the country. And when… I was–been
eating at a nice little place. And I looked at that. The Sunday came,
and they closed up and went to church. They were Dunkards. And that
afternoon, or right after lunch, I kinda felt hungry, and I thought I
should have a sandwich. I stepped across the street to a ordinary
little restaurant. It was a disgrace to walk into the place. There was
standing there, the law playing a slot machine, when gambling's illegal
in that state. But the law playing a slot machine…
Now, you could see how that degrades the laws of our nation, how that
was in my eyes to see that. The law that we respect and should be
upheld, and to see the law itself turning around playing slot machines.
That's the same thing that the unbeliever sees the Christian acting
like the world. That's the same im–impression it puts upon them.

^E-22
I noticed back in the corner, a young lady, very foully dressed. And
when she came down to wait on the tables, the boys, the way they were
carrying on…
I looked setting to my right, an elderly lady, could've been my
grandmother, setting there immorally dressed, kind–kind of a blue
looking lipstick. Now, anybody know that a normal person don't have
blue lips. But they had blue looking lipstick on, and that manicure,
ever what you call, all over her eyes. And–and she was setting there
with two old men. And I thought, "My God, how can You stand to look
down upon such?"
And the Lord called me behind the door, and I saw a vision. I saw the
world and it turning. And I saw that my sins and other sins was going.
I thought, "God, why don't You just blow the place up? How can You
stand it?"

^E-23
But then I seen around the world was a crimson Stream. I seen the Lord
Jesus standing there in all of His pity as He looked down upon the
earth. And I seen my sins as they went to Him, but His Blood act like a
bumper before God. They could not come to Him. And I seen every time
I'd do anything wrong; His Blood would stand between me and the
judgments of God. I walked up to Him; I said, "Lord," in the vision, I
said, "is my sins doing that?" I said, "Then forgive me God; I didn't
mean to do it."
And He stuck His hand in the side, reached over and got a little book
that my name was written on, all full of sin and wrote "Pardoned"
across it, and throwed it back behind Him in the sea of forgetfulness.
He said, "Now, I forgive you you're sins, but what are you saying about
that woman?"
When I come to out of the vision, I went down and set down to her, I said, "Lady, I–was you ever a Christian?"
She said, "Why you asking me that for?"

^E-24
I begin to speak to her, and she told me a heartbroken story of how
some things come up in the church, and she was call–went out of the
church. She had taken a wrong road. She had two daughters, and they
were nice ladies. And how she was there with those two drunken men that
afternoon… I told her what the Lord Jesus had showed me, that He
still loved her. I reached across the–the table, caught her by the
hands, and I said, "Lady, I don't care what you have done; Christ still
loves you."
Right out from behind that table she went in the middle of that floor.
The cop took off his hat and all the rest of them; and we had an old
fashion prayer meeting there; and she was liberated and brought back to
Christ. It's a jubilee friends. The jubilee's on. It's time for men and
women to come back to Christ.

^E-25
Here not long ago in Switzerland, standing up there in the big high
Alps mountains I was thinking of Arnold Von Winkelried. Many of you
know the story. What a gallant hero he was many years ago in
Switzerland. And how that the Swiss nation was being invaded by a
mighty army, and the cities was being taken. And the gallant blood of
the Swiss people congregated from the mountains into the valley with
such little weapons as they could defend themselves with.
And when they stood there on the field, and they looked approaching
them, and when they were approaching this great army, they were
outnumbered fifty to one. And they were–they wasn't soldiers; they
wasn't trained. They didn't know what to do. But this army that was
invading was well trained, every man like a brick wall coming right in.

^E-26
And when they were standing there with their spears, moving up. One
great man stepped out, Arnold Von Winkelried. And as he stepped out
there in the presence, they were hopeless; everything they could think
of was lost. They would simply have to go down and their homes be lost.
Their families would be killed. The fatherlands would be destroyed.
There was nothing they could do; it was hopeless.
Then Arnold Von Winkelried stepped out and said, "Swiss brethren, this day I'll give my life for Switzerland and the homelands."
He said, "What will you do?"
He said, "Down in the valley yonder, is a lovely little home where my
wife and little children are waiting for me to come back. But they'll
never see me again. For this day I shall give my life for my country."
And as he said that, they said, "What will you do?"
And he said, "Now, everyone of you that's got weapons, come follow me
and do the best you can. Fight with what you've got. Do everything you
can with what you have got to do with."

^E-27
And he screamed, threw up his weapon, and said, "Make way for liberty."
And he started towards that army. And he went right towards the
thickest of the spears. And when he got right down to where they
was–hundred gleaming spears to catch him as he come; he threw up his
hands and said, "Make way for liberty." And he grabbed big armfuls of
those spears and threw them into his chest. And each one of those Swiss
soldiers followed behind him. He broke the ranks of the enemy, and they
won a victory like has never been won before.
And today you can mention his name in Switzerland, and their eyes will
color with tears, and their cheeks will flush for their hero. That was
one of the greatest heroes to my opinion, that's been in army life. But
that's just a minor thing, just a minor thing. One day the sons of Adam
was standing defeated; law, prophets and everything had failed. Every
approach we had made had totally failed. And yonder in glory there was
One stepped out called the Son of God. And the Angels said, "What will
You do?"
He said, "I'll go down and give My life. And this day I will redeem the fallen sons of Adam."

^E-28
And He came to Calvary. He went to the thickest of the spears. He went
through the valley of the shadow of death and caught every dart of the
devil, and pulled it into His own bosom, and called for the Church to
take what you've got and do the best you can. Praise God, on the day of
Pentecost a rushing mighty wind fell out of the heavens above and armed
every man with a weapon.
And I say today my brethren, that every man, whatever you got, let's do
the best we can with what we got, and fight to the last man, because we
got the enemy's lines broke. Christ defeated Satan, stripped him of
everything he ever had, and he's nothing today but a bluff. When he
tells you we can't have another old fashion Holy Ghost outpouring of
the Spirit, we can have it today because the lines of the enemy is
broke, and God rules and reigns today. Hallelujah. I'm glad for an old
fashion Holy Ghost experience of the living God.

^E-29
How this great warrior of Christ broke the way and put the enemy to
rout. And those brethren on the day of Pentecost, when the number
fifty… There's something about fifty that brings jubilee. And when
they broke the enemy's lines there, they cut away as an example, that
you and I today can have an old fashion Pentecostal revival again.
Brethren and sisters, the hour is growing late; it's later than you
think. As Brother Moore once said up in Finland, when we were up there
right after the war. They were working day and night. Women out in the
fields were going along with a harrow. They couldn't take time to disk
the ground; they had just had to pull the harrow to scratch it.
Wintertime was coming on, and they, little children worked night and
day. At nighttime they'd pack the lantern in front of the father and
mother, pulling the harrow. They just had to scratch the ground the
best they could to get the seed in. If they didn't get the seed in, the
snows was going to come, and winter would catch them, and they'd all
perish the next year from starvation. They had to get the seed in the
ground.

^E-30
My brother, sister, if we don't scratch quickly and get the seed of God
into the ground, what's the harvest going to be? We've got to go forth
with another old fashion pouring out of the Holy Ghost and men and
women back to God again, or this country and this church, and
Pentecost, and all is lost, if we don't get back to the seed and the
Word of God again and an old fashion revival. Do you believe it today?
Do you believe that God would pour it out?
Oh, my. I feel today, led in my soul to make this proposition with the
people. I believe if every one of us in this building today will
rededicate our lives to God and will… As Jacob was told by the Lord
to wash up his, get his people to clean themselves up to present
themselves before the Lord, I believe if we'll clean ourselves up from
all of our evil thinking, from all of our selfishness, from all of our
backbiting, from all of our acts of this life, and come boldly before
the throne of God, I believe an old fashion revival will break out
right here in Angelus Temple, that one week will never stop it. That's
right. It'll just keep going. Do you believe it?

^E-31
Let us stand to our feet just a moment. You can never make an altar
call in a place of this type. There's not enough room for it. But your
heart is the altar. Your heart is where God lives. I wonder today, if
there's people standing here who has never received the Holy Ghost.
You've heard all about these great things taking place, but you've
never as yet received it, would you raise your hands to God and say, "I
want to receive the baptism of the Holy Ghost"? Would you raise your
hands, all around, over the balconies, everywhere? God bless you.
How many here that's never received Christ as personal Saviour? Would
you raise your hands? Are you concerned enough about your–your eternal
destination to raise your hands to God? Would you do it? God bless you.

^E-32
How, many here that's already received the Holy Ghost and wants to
dedicate their life anew today to Christ? Raise your hands. The Lord
God bless you. I believe, on–after the acceptable year of the Lord had
been preached, when they gathered together at Pentecost in the temple,
they were believers. They were in one place in one accord. And how
appropriate this meeting is this afternoon when believers from all
parts of the country has gathered at the temple again, all in one place
in one accord. What a wonderful time it would be for a outpouring of
the Holy Ghost to come down in our midst this afternoon, hearing those
messages awhile ago given.
If God's give you the message of speaking with tongues, do it. If God
has give–put in your hands to interpret, do it. If God's put in your
hands to testify, do it. If God's put in your hands to preach, preach.
What you've got, let go. Christ broke the lines, and let's go get the
victory for the Lord Jesus Christ. Let us raise our hands now to God
and thank God and praise Him.

^E-33
Our heavenly Father, we thank Thee today for the outpouring of the Holy
Ghost. We are believing Lord for a great meeting, Lord, for a great
moving among the people. I ask You today to grant these blessings, God,
and may they see a great time of fellowship…?… in Jesus Christ's
Name. God hear Your people…?…
Audience out in radio land, you should be here to watch these more than
five thousand people with their hands up praising the Lord Jesus. We're
having an old fashion jubilee. Come out and join with us, everybody
praising the Lord, giving God praise for the old time religion again.
In this modern world where we're living, where men are perverted, their
minds are evil thinking, juvenile delinquency heaping up everywhere,
yet, in the midst of it all, God's pouring out His Holy Spirit day
after day, night after night, and only–even right here this afternoon
at Angelus Temple, the Holy Spirit here. How God is here to bless the
people.

And you in radio land, as you're–wasn't aware much that we were still
on the radio. But you in radio land, you should come and see this,
what's a going on here, such a great gathering of God's people, such a
unity of spirit. Where different denomination's barriers are broken
down. Everybody's standing with one heart and one accord, receiving
Christ Jesus. What a marvelous time. Oh, let us open up our hearts; let
us raise our voices, our hands, our hearts to Christ, and receive the
baptism of the Holy Ghost and a outpouring.
If you are determined to receive It, if you really want It… But
you've got to hunger and thirst for It before you can ever get it. For
the Bible said, "Blessed are they that do hunger and thirst after
righteousness, for they shall be filled."

and Thy nation. Heavenly Father, as we leave the air, we pray that the
Holy Ghost will catch fire out here in this city, and around over the
country, and bring us back another old fashion revival, that the power
of God will fall into the meeting. Heal all the sick and the afflicted
everywhere, Lord, and get glory out of the services, through Jesus'
Name…
