allowed to come out of that and the yellow people have
compartments and then there will be Methodist compart
ment and Presbyterian compartment and Baptist COM
partment; and so on, all the way down tho line What
selfish nonsense
That is the idea some people have of Haavon Wall
that is not the idea that is given in the Word of God
GOD HATH MADE OF ONE BLOOD"-how manv ma
lions?
Audience-"Al nations"
General Overseer-"And in Chrst"-what does the
Word say?-ye are ALL ONE, aren't thew? Yes And
His prayer that not only His apostles but all
those who should believe Him through their word should
be ONE was it not?
WHAT AND WHERE is THE KINGDOM OF HEAVEN
am coming up to the question as to what THE KING
DOM OF GOD IS and where it is you to follow close
y want you to anticipate tit very important Then
will talk about the "new BIRTH" will find out whether
you have seen this or not you have not then you never
have been born again. for if you have been born again
you will see it.
WE'LL now the first thing in that Constitution is that
the in spirit enjoy KINGDOM OF HEAVEN Does it
say HERE, or HEREAFTER? HERE or UP YONDER?
Voices-Here.
General Overseer-I believe that is settled I do not
believe that Bible student would attempt to deny that
have not time to go all the Beautudes but YOU
read and study the Sermon the Mountthe fifth sixth
and seventh chapters of Matthew.
After the Beautitudes-Ye the salt of the earth
Ye are the light of the world Then Jesus goes and He
touches upon number of subjects. tell you you will
find ringing words there on the divorce question You
will find ringing words there the taking of an OATH
There are some startling things in that Sermon on
the Mount.
CHRIST SET THE EXAMPLE OF PRAYER
want to mention, in this connection the petition in
the Lords prayer: "Thy KINGDOM come Thy will BE
DONE IN EARTH, AS it is in Heaven" Notice that
In the Sermon on the Mount, He teaches how to pray
l can see now than ever, why Dr. Dowie dwelt
as ne did on prayer. Where will you find wonderful
teaching than you will find in the LEAVES OF HEALING on
the subject of Prayer-"How to Pray"
Lord, teach us how to pray, and to pray and get an
answer!
There is quite good deal said in the Word on PRAYER
Some people look at though crazy because we
believe in prayer They say, Look at that fool there
asking God to heal that consumptive That the way
the world talks and that is the way the rank and file the
so-caled Churches talk.
had letter the other day telling me about Methodist
preacher in California who has been reading ZION literature
and who has accepted Divine Healing He preached few
sermons and two three of the leading families left the
Church They boohoo at u.s. far and WIDE for praying
Fanatics and fools they praying for God to heal
the sick"
All, tell you God has not changed neither has the
devil and neither has human nature
There is quite little in this sixth chapter of Matthew
on Prayer but want to call particular attention the
petition, CITY KINGDOM come. Thy will BE DONE IN
EARTH AS it is in Heaven"
have heard that prayer repeated ever since I was
very small boy have heard the Sunday School close with
the Lords Prayer and have heard ministers their
general applications with the Lords Prayer have read
it in different languages have read good many COM
mens it. and have heard at family affairs and have
heard little children at mothers knee but I'll tell YOU what
the fact the matter is There hundred and ninety
nine out of thousand who repeat who do know
bit more what it means-have realization of what
would happen if God would answer the prayer-than
born babe does.
THE INEVITABLE MEANING OF "THY KINGDOM COME"
'THY KINGDOM GOMEZ There is the petition
The question is What is it that we want to come when
we that? What you praying for? What are you
after? WHEN do you want it to come? and WHERE do
you want it to come?
When read in the prophecy which have mentioned
that the stone taken out of the mountain without hands,
