win tne LORD. Did God plan TO save
the world through the preaching of
angels? He did not. He did noti He
planned to save the world through the
preaching Of men and women-thats
all.
When Jesus died on the cross. he
paid the penalty for the sins Of the
human race. Now Iisteni Adam and
Eve were created. male and female.
All the human race are the offspring
from Adam and Eve. So when Jesus
came into the world. he took our ma
ture, hence the plan Of redemption
only extends to the human race. The
devils were only bright. shining an
gels. The devil is the prince, Like a
gang of thugs have leader. the
devil is the leader and he has agents
that help him. my friends, to work,
but the devil is the leader and they
were ell once bright, shining Angels.
Some of them Joined in the rebellion.
some of them didn't. Therefore, the
devils were once bright, shining an
gels, but they kept not their first es-
tate. Their estate was heaven.
They rebelled against God and they
were hurled over the battlements of
glory. He'll was prepared for the
devil and his angels. God never
made hell for man. God made heaven
for man, but IL man is fool and
serves the devil. then he will go to
hell and live with the devil.
He'll Not for Man.
But God didn't make hell for man.
When Jesus died on the cross-now
Iisten!, The plan of. redemption had
nothing to do with redeeming fallen
angeIs-not at all! Each individual
angel was created. Adam and Eve.
male and female. Ali the human
race are offsprings of Adam and Eve.
Angels are not male and female.
They don't have children. SO Jesus
Christ to have redeemed the devils
would have to die as many times as
there were devils that rebelled, be-
cause each individual angel was Gre
ated. But when he died for US, hav-
ing taken our nature. the plan of re-
demption only extends to the human
race. 1t has nothing to do with a
fallen angel. They are not redeemed
and they never will be redeemed
when they fall. God never gave them
chance to repent He has given
man a chance to repent. God gave
man a Savior, Jesus Christ. You
ought to be glad that God gives man
something he doesn't give a fallen
! angel. He gives them a chance to
| go to heaven, He doesn't give il to
the fallen angels.
So therefore, God Almighty, by his
| spirit. convicts me that + am a sin
ner and I ask God for Christ's sake
to forgive my sins and 1 feel myself
| b., LA
! clare myself. And when you hear
me talking you say: There is a
man with my nature; he is human
like 1 am
| And when you hear a man Of your
own nature talk, you know what he
| is talking about. God didn't send
the angels to preach.not at all! An
angel couldn't understand anything
that I would say and 1 couldn't un-
derstand anything that an angel
would say.
Oh. you may be rich, You may live
| in your beautiful home. The world
may pass by and never suspect you.
But IL you live the way the devil wants
you to live. you will go to perdition.

one of his military expeditions he cap

her back home with him. She was
sort OF a helper to Naamans wife.
Mrs Naaman kept telling this little
J girl about her good husband who was
a leIer and this little girl said:
We've got a great God down in
Israel that cures lepers of their lep-

They said: We'll, that doesn't make
any difference TO u.s." and they didn't
pay any attention to it, but she kept
on telling it and telling it until the
people got talking all about what this
little girl had said.
So, the King said: What is this

cures people of leprosy? You have
stayed here and your condition has

I tell you society of the twentieth

Oh! some OF them are so shocked

Naaman says: "Good-by. wife"
