the tombsone and ehotng the inhabitants of the grave
yard do certain amount of work BY that meant that
their preaching dead and they growing because
the people didn't do this and that
If were to Elder Tinda out in his garden trying
to gather plums from dead plum tree would think he
was crazy.
WE'LL that is just what the preachers doing today:
they trying to get fruit off of dead trees and they
not do it, and there is no use in their trying.
Except man be BORN AGAIN, he cannot SEE
KINGDOM OF GoDr'
Then what is the in their going around growing
at people for going around not seeing anything when
they stone blind.
We will say that here is man who is fairly possessed
with the spirit of covetousness Now he needs not
primarily, against covetousness but he needs

SOME THINGS TO BE ACCOMPLISHED DURING THE
FEAST OF TABERNACLEs
The "Od man" must die! During these meetings 81
going to to it not saying that that you
anything about it-but here to kill every "old
man" and every "old woman" that strikes town,
would better look out. The Bible tells that to
become New creatures in Christ Jesus" we are to put
off the old with his Deeds"
What is the use in foong around with the "Old man"
and with the cold woman" and with the old things?
CHRIsTs THEME "THE KINGDOM" AND NOT so MUCH
"THE CHURCH"
|
KINGDOM GoD in about fifty different places; and
challenge anyone to show where He mentioned the
word Church but once, and looking into that very
closely and may have something that to say you
My brothers and sisters ZION and ZION CITY worth
living for and they worth dying or-wheher you and
live to reap the benefits not the generations that follow
will call blessed for being pioneers and bequeahing
to them City where there have been worked out many
the principles of THE KINGDOM OF GOD
This is of my favorte subjects-"THE KINGDOM
OF GoD," and right here upon this earth.
Except be born again he cannot KING
DOM OF GOD"
have talked to great many people, and have looked
into the faces of many thousands of people, but people
cannot anything-they blind.
1t may be that of you would say that Jesus
toned the word 'Church" twice; but say that He
toned only once-n the eighteenth chapter of the Gospel
according to ST. Matthew.
You might say, "What about the sixteenth chapter
"And upon this rock will build My church,"
Well, if you will search DR.. Thayers Greek Lexicon
you will find that it says upon this rock will build my
KINGDOM
Those who understand the Greek will find in reading
that instead of the reading being Ten Ekkesan mou it
should be "Ten Baseian mou'
'Upon this rock will build my KINGDOM, and the gates
of hell shall prevail against it and the proves
it, for the very next says:
81 Will give unto you the keys Of KINGDoM'-not
"Of the Church."
And in the discourse of Jesus the Christ there
many fifty references to KINGDOM and only that
one reference to the Church"
Nowadays, everything is Church" It is "MY
church,, and oUR chu1ca, and YOUR church, and CHS
church,, and HER church." and "YoU to church
and will go to church, and it is the METHODIST
Church and the presbyterian Church. and it is "Churc
church, church, until the rank and file of the people today
do not know that there such thing KINGDOM
COD.
And today when somebody along and gets right
down to the kernel of the Scriptures and talks about
GOD being for this earth and now and that
all of the activities of humanity people say you
Icrazy-see?
WE'LL will tell you tonight that it is mighty high
comp inert to be called crazy and to be called fool for
Chriss sake Every nowadays who cares to step
out of the beaten track of great grandfaher crazy
of course and there many people who want to
into ZIoN but they will not because they afraid
somebody will call them turn-coat.
WE'LL when hear that always think of Mrs. Hail. of
Cincinnati, who formerly a Roman Catholic and
wonderfully healed. When she into ZION, her old
friends called her "turncoat" and she said to them,
"Thank God had my coat wrongside-oUt BEFORE but
now have turned it and have it on right side-out.
And that is just what great many people today need
to do is to turn their coatsfor they going around
wearing their coats wrong-side-out.
There is but kind of person who ''fops and
that is dead person.
